Description

The present invention relates to a tubular reel seat for fixing a reel to a fishing rod, a reel seat main body that is a component of the tubular reel seat, and a fishing rod provided with the tubular reel seat.

As a reel sheet for fixing a reel such as a spinning reel to a fishing rod, there is a type that is formed into a tubular shape and externally fixed to the rod body, and is also called a pipe sheet. When fishing, the reel leg is fixed to the reel seat, the reel is mounted on the fishing rod, and the reel seat of the fishing rod is gripped. In order to improve the grip comfort at that time, the present applicant has also proposed a reel seat in which the shape of the reel seat body (seat base) is devised as in Patent Document 1 below. In this reel seat, recesses are formed on both left and right sides of the reel seat body so that the reel seat body can be easily gripped. Further, a mode in which both recesses communicate with each other by deeply forming the recesses on the left and right side surfaces is also proposed (FIGS. 5 and 6 of the same document 1).

However, as shown in FIG. 6 of Document 1, the wall thickness of the intermediate portion of the reel sheet main body in the axial direction is large in a cross-sectional view. Moreover, the wall thickness increases rapidly toward the rod tip side and the rod butt side. Therefore, there is a limit to the weight reduction of the reel seat. Further, since the axially intermediate portion of the reel seat body is thick, further improvement in vibration transmission characteristics is required.

Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 6-15466

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a lightweight and highly sensitive tubular reel seat, reel seat body, and fishing rod.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and a tubular reel seat according to the present invention is provided with a rod insertion hole through which a rod main body is inserted, and one of the reel legs is provided on one end side in the axial direction. Cylindrical reel seat having a reel seat body made of one member, in which a fixed hood portion for fixing the leg tips of the is formed, and a male screw portion is formed on the outer peripheral surface on the other end side in the axial direction. The reel seat main body is located on one end side in the axial direction and has a first tubular portion having a fixed hood portion, and the second tubular portion is located on the other end side in the axial direction and has a male screw portion. And a bridge portion that connects the first tubular portion and the second tubular portion on the side opposite to the reel mounting side, and the reel seat main body has a recessed portion recessed from the reel mounting side toward the side opposite the reel mounting side with a rod insertion hole. The rod insertion hole is formed deeper than the side opposite to the reel mounting side, and the rod insertion hole is divided by the recess to be formed in the first cylinder portion and the second cylinder portion, respectively, and the inner surface of the bridge portion has a diameter larger than that of the rod insertion hole. The bridge portion, which is located outward in the direction, has a cross-sectional shape of an outer convex in which both the outer surface and the inner surface are curved outward in the radial direction in a cross-sectional view obtained by cutting a midway portion of the axial direction in a direction orthogonal to the axial direction. It is characterized by doing. The anti-reel mounting side is a direction opposite to the reel mounting side by 180 degrees in the circumferential direction. The left and right sides are directions orthogonal to the direction connecting the reel mounting side and the anti-reel mounting side, and are directions rotated 90 degrees in the circumferential direction with respect to the reel mounting side and the anti-reel mounting side. Further, the rod tip side may be referred to as the front side, the rod base side may be referred to as the rear side, and the central axis direction (axial direction) of the tubular reel seat or the rod body may be referred to as the front-rear direction.

In the tubular reel seat having the above structure, the reel seat main body is provided with a recessed portion which is recessed from the reel mounting side toward the anti-reel mounting side, and the recessed portion extends beyond the rod insertion hole to the anti-reel mounting side. Is deeply formed. Therefore, the rod insertion hole of the reel seat body is divided into the front and rear by the recess. Further, the inner surface of the bridge portion is located radially outside of the rod insertion hole. That is, the inner surface of the bridge portion is separated from the rod body when mounted on the rod body. The bridge portion has a lateral cross-sectional shape that is convex toward the outside, and both the outer surface and the inner surface are curved outward, and the bridge portion is thin. Even if the bridge portion is located radially outward of the rod insertion hole and is thin as described above, since the cross-sectional shape of the outer protrusion is sufficient, sufficient strength can be secured. Vibration is transmitted to the hand from the thinned bridge portion, and the rod body exposed between the first and second cylinder portions can be directly touched with a finger, so that the rod body also Vibration is transmitted to the hand with high sensitivity.

In particular, both side edge portions of the end portion of the bridge portion on the side of the first tubular portion extend to the reel mounting side over a half circumference on the side opposite to the reel mounting side, and at the concave side of the rod insertion hole in the first tubular portion. It is preferable to be spaced radially outward from the opening. In this structure, since both side edge portions of the end portion of the bridge portion on the side of the first cylinder portion extend to the reel mounting side over a half circumference on the side opposite to the reel mounting side, the boundary between the bridge portion and the first cylindrical portion is formed. Sufficient strength is secured in the part. Since both side edge portions of the end portion of the bridge portion on the first tubular portion side are spaced radially outward from the opening of the rod insertion hole of the first tubular portion on the concave portion side, the end on the first tubular portion side is formed. Also in the section, the bridge section maintains a thin wall, which enables further weight reduction. Thus, both strength and thinning can be achieved at the same time.

Further, both side edge portions of the end portion of the bridge portion on the side of the first cylinder portion are preferably continuous with the left and right end portions of the opening edge portion of the fixed hood portion. The strength can be easily ensured even at the opening edge portion of the hood portion.

Further, the reel seat body of the tubular reel seat according to the present invention is formed with a rod insertion hole through which the rod body is inserted, and is fixed to one end portion side of the axial direction for fixing one leg tip portion of the reel leg. A reel seat main body made of one member, in which a hood portion is formed and a male screw portion is formed on the outer peripheral surface on the other end side in the axial direction, which is located at one end side in the axial direction and has a fixed hood portion. A first tubular portion having a first tubular portion, a second tubular portion located on the other end side in the axial direction and having a male screw portion, and a bridge portion connecting the first tubular portion and the second tubular portion on the side opposite to the reel mounting side. A recessed portion that is recessed from the reel mounting side to the anti-reel mounting side is formed deeply beyond the rod insertion hole to the anti-reel mounting side, and the rod insertion hole is divided by the recessed portion to form the first cylindrical portion. The inner surface of the bridge portion, which is formed in each of the second tubular portions, is located radially outside of the rod insertion hole, and the bridge portion is a cross-section obtained by cutting the midway portion of the axial direction in a direction orthogonal to the axial direction. When viewed, both the outer surface and the inner surface have a lateral cross-sectional shape that is curved outward in the radial direction and is convex outward.

Further, the fishing rod according to the present invention includes the tubular reel sheet as described above.

In particular, it is preferable that the bridge portion is separated from the rod body, and the rod body is exposed over the entire circumference between the first tubular portion and the second tubular portion.

As described above, since the cross-sectional shape of the bridge portion of the reel seat body is a thin curved shape with an outward convex shape, it is possible to reduce the weight while ensuring strength, and the thin shape suppresses vibration damping. Vibration can be transmitted to the hand with high sensitivity.

Hereinafter, a tubular reel seat according to an embodiment of the present invention and a fishing rod equipped with the tubular reel seat will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 13. The tubular reel seat 1 in the present embodiment is for fixing a spinning reel to a fishing rod. The tubular reel sheet 1 has a tubular shape as a whole, which is a so-called pipe sheet, and is mounted on a rod main body 2 (blank) of a fishing rod so as to be immovably fixed at a predetermined position. That is, the rod main body 2 is inserted through the tubular reel sheet 1, and is fixed to a predetermined position on the outer peripheral surface of the rod main body 2 by adhesion or the like.

The side of the tubular reel seat 1 on which the spinning reel is mounted is the reel mounting side, and the side opposite to the reel mounting side in the radial direction (the side opposite 180 degrees) is the non-reel mounting side. In normal use, the spinning reel faces downward. Therefore, in FIG. 1 and the like, the reel leg support surface 11 for supporting the back surface of the reel leg 3 is illustrated so as to face downward depending on the state of use. Further, when the rod tip side is the front side and the rod butt side is the rear side, the direction orthogonal to the axial direction (direction of the central axis) of the rod body 2 is the left-right direction when viewed from the side opposite to the reel mounting side.

The reel leg 3 includes a leg main portion 4 extending in a single leg shape from a reel main body (not shown), and mounting leg portions 5 extending front and rear sides from an ankle portion 4a which is a tip end portion of the leg main portion 4, and is provided as a whole. Is formed in a T shape. Therefore, the reel leg 3 has a pair of front and rear leg tips 5a and 5b.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the tubular reel sheet 1 is immovably mounted on the rod body 2, and a fixed hood portion 12 for fixing one leg tip portion 5a of the reel leg 3 is formed. A cylindrical reel seat main body 7, a cylindrical movable hood 8 that is mounted on the reel seat main body 7, and fixes the other leg tip portion 5b of the reel leg 3, and the movable hood 8 in the axial direction. And a fixing nut 9 for fixing it at a desired position. The outer peripheral surface of the tubular reel seat 1 has a shape that bulges like a mountain on the side opposite to the reel mounting side in a front view as shown in FIG. The portion P (top portion) is located slightly closer to the fixed nut 9 side than the center line 4b of the ankle portion 4a of the reel leg 3. The outer peripheral surface on the anti-reel mounting side gently descends from the peak portion P toward the fixed nut 9 side, that is, the other end side in the axial direction toward the reel mounting side, and continues from the reel seat body 7 to the movable hood 8. And then descend. The outer peripheral surface on the side opposite to the reel mounting side has a shape that gradually descends toward the reel mounting side even from the peak portion P toward the other end side in the axial direction.

In addition, the outer peripheral surface of the tubular reel sheet 1 gradually moves from the other end side toward the one end side in the axial direction in the movable hood 8 in a plan view seen from the side opposite to the reel mounting side as shown in FIG. The width of the reel seat body 7 is gradually narrowed, and then the width of the reel seat body 7 is gradually narrowed toward the fixed hood portion 12. Is gradually narrowing.

The reel seat body 7 is composed of one member. The material of the reel sheet main body 7 may be synthetic resin, metal or the like, but it is particularly preferable that the reel sheet main body 7 is a resin molded product formed by injection molding from a hard synthetic resin. The synthetic resin may be various ones, but a fiber-reinforced resin is preferable, and a fiber-reinforced resin in which short fibers having a length of 1 mm or less are used as a reinforcing fiber is particularly preferable. Further, as the fiber, carbon fiber is preferable.

A rod insertion hole 10 through which the rod body 2 is inserted is formed in the reel seat body 7, and a reel leg support surface 11 for supporting the back surface of the reel leg 3 is formed on the reel mounting side, and one end portion 7a in the axial direction is formed. A fixed hood portion 12 for fixing one leg tip portion 5a of the reel leg 3 is formed on the side, and a male screw portion 13 is formed on the outer peripheral surface on the side of the other end portion 7b in the axial direction. The back surface of the reel leg 3 is the back surface of the mounting leg portion 5 of the reel leg 3. The fixed hood portion 12 is formed on the reel mounting side and has an opening portion that opens toward the other end portion 7b in the axial direction. One leg tip portion 5a of the reel leg 3 is inserted into the fixed hood portion 12. The fixed nut 9 is screwed onto the male screw portion 13 of the reel seat body 7, and the movable hood 8 is located on one end side of the fixed nut 9 in the axial direction. The reel seat main body 7 is formed with a guide groove 14 that linearly extends in the axial direction so as to partially cut out the male screw portion 13. Although the number and arrangement of the guide grooves 14 are arbitrary, for example, they are arranged symmetrically with respect to each other on both left and right sides. The movable hood 8 slides in the axial direction while being guided by the guide groove 14 of the reel seat body 7.

As shown in FIG. 7, in a front view of the reel sheet main body 7, the outer peripheral surface on the side opposite to the reel is bulged in a mountain shape toward the outer side in the radial direction (on the side opposite to the reel) at the center. The outer peripheral surface on the reel mounting side gradually descends from the peak portion P to one end portion 7a in the axial direction toward the reel mounting side. Further, as shown in FIG. 8, when viewed from the bottom side as viewed from the reel mounting side, the reel sheet main body 7 has a narrowly narrowed shape in the central portion, and the most narrowed narrowed portion Q is the outer periphery on the non-reel mounting side. It is located behind the peak portion P of the surface. The width gradually increases from the constricted portion Q to the opening of the fixed hood portion 12, and then gradually decreases from the fixed hood portion 12 to one end portion 7a in the axial direction. In this way, the reel seat body 7 has a tapered shape in which the diameter is gradually reduced from the fixed hood portion 12 toward the one end portion 7a in the axial direction.

On the reel mounting side of the reel sheet main body 7, a recess 15 is formed which is recessed toward the opposite reel mounting side. The recess 15 is open on the reel mounting side and also on both the left and right side surfaces (both sides). Therefore, the recess 15 is formed on three sides of the reel mounting side, the non-reel mounting side, and the left and right side surfaces. It has an open shape. The recess 15 is formed deeply beyond the rod insertion hole 10 to the side opposite to the reel mounting side. The side opening shape when the recess 15 is viewed from both the left and right sides is an inverted triangular shape that gradually becomes deeper from both front and rear sides toward the central portion, and the valley bottom portion in the side opening shape that is the inverted triangular shape. R is located on the side opposite to the reel mounting side with respect to the rod insertion hole 10. Further, the valley bottom portion R in the side opening shape that is an inverted triangle is located closer to the other end portion 7b in the axial direction than the peak portion P of the outer peripheral surface on the side opposite to the reel mounting side. The lateral opening shape of the recess 15 is continuous with the opening edge of the fixed hood 12. Further, the recess 15 has the deepest central portion in the left-right direction as shown in FIG. 6 in a cross-sectional view taken in a direction orthogonal to the axial direction.

Since the recess 15 is formed on the reel mounting side of the reel sheet main body 7 in this way, the reel sheet main body 7 has the first cylindrical portion 21 located on the one end portion 7a side in the axial direction and the other end portion in the axial direction. The second cylinder portion 22 located on the 7b side and the bridge portion 23 that connects the first cylinder portion 21 and the second cylinder portion 22 in the axial direction on the side opposite to the reel mounting side. Further, since the recess 15 is formed on the reel mounting side of the reel seat body 7, the rod insertion hole 10 is in a state of being divided into front and rear. Therefore, the rod insertion holes 10 are formed separately in the first tubular portion 21 and the second tubular portion 22, respectively, but these rod insertion holes 10 are coaxial with each other.

The rod insertion hole 10 of the first tubular portion 21 has a constant diameter except for the end portion on the opposite side to the recessed portion 15, and the end portion on the opposite side to the recessed portion 15 has a one-step larger diameter via the step portion. ing. An opening edge portion of the rod insertion hole 10 of the first tubular portion 21 on the concave portion 15 side is a flat surface that is orthogonal to the axial direction over the entire circumference. An opening edge portion of the rod insertion hole 10 of the first tubular portion 21 opposite to the recessed portion 15 is inclined without being orthogonal to the axial direction, and extends in the axial direction from the opposite reel mounting side to the reel mounting side. It has an inclined surface extending to. That is, one end face in the axial direction, which is the end face of the reel sheet main body 7 on the side of the first tubular portion 21, is an inclined surface inclined with respect to the axial direction. The rod insertion hole 10 of the second tubular portion 22 has a constant diameter over the entire length. The opening edge portion of the rod insertion hole 10 of the second tubular portion 22 on the concave portion 15 side is a flat surface that is orthogonal to the axial direction over the entire circumference, and the rod insertion hole 10 of the second tubular portion 22 is The opening edge on the side opposite to the recess 15 is also a plane that is orthogonal to the axial direction over the entire circumference. That is, the other end surface in the axial direction, which is the end surface of the reel sheet main body 7 on the second cylinder portion 22 side, is a flat surface orthogonal to the axial direction.

Further, the reel leg support surface 11 is also divided into the front and rear by the concave portion 15, and thus the reel leg support surface 11 is formed by being divided into the first tubular portion 21 and the second tubular portion 22, respectively. Have the same height. Thus, the rod insertion hole 10 and the fixed hood portion 12 are formed in the first tubular portion 21, and the rod insertion hole 10 and the male screw portion 13 are formed in the second tubular portion 22.

As shown in FIG. 9, the bridge portion 23 has a curved shape that is curved outward in the radial direction, that is, toward the opposite reel mounting side in a vertical cross-sectional view taken along the axial direction. In a longitudinal sectional view, the outer surface 23a of the bridge portion 23 has an outwardly convex curved shape, and the inner surface 23b of the bridge portion 23 also has an outwardly convex curved shape corresponding to the shape of the outer surface 23a. The inner surface 23b of the bridge is located radially outside the rod insertion hole 10 over the entire length in the axial direction.

Further, as shown in FIG. 6, the bridge portion 23 has a curved shape that is curved outward in the radial direction in a cross-sectional view taken in a direction orthogonal to the axial direction. That is, in the cross-sectional view, both the outer surface 23a and the inner surface 23b of the bridge portion 23 are curved outwardly convex, and thus, the bridge portion 23, both the outer surface 23a and the inner surface 23b thereof are curved radially outward, It has an outwardly convex cross-sectional shape. The thickness of the bridge portion 23 at the middle portion, not at the both ends in the axial direction, is thin, and is at least thinner than the portion of the first tubular portion 21 on the side opposite to the reel mounting side. Has a thin-walled curved cross-sectional shape that is convex toward the outside. Further, since the inner surface 23b of the bridge portion 23 is located radially outward of the rod insertion hole 10, as shown in FIG. 6, the rod main body 2 is attached to the rod main body 2 as shown in FIG. 2, the inner surface 23b of the bridge portion 23 is spaced radially outward.

Further, the left and right side edge portions 24 (both circumferential end portions) of the bridge portion 23 are located on the side opposite to the reel mounting side of the rod insertion hole 10 for most of the entire length of the bridge portion 23, and are mounted on the rod body 2. In the state, it is located on the side opposite to the reel mounting side with respect to the rod body 2. Both side edge portions 24 of the bridge portion 23 are located on the most anti-reel mounting side in the valley bottom portion R in the side opening shape of the recessed portion 15, from which the both side edge portions 24 are on the first cylinder portion 21 side and the second cylinder portion 22 side. Gradually extends toward the reel mounting side. Both side edge portions 24 of the end portion of the bridge portion 23 on the side of the first cylinder portion 21 extend to the reel mounting side beyond a half circumference on the opposite reel mounting side. That is, both side edge portions 24 of the end portion of the bridge portion 23 on the first cylinder portion 21 side extend toward the reel mounting side from the center line 10a of the rod insertion hole 10, and the both side edge portions 24 are The one cylindrical portion 21 is spaced radially outward from the opening of the rod insertion hole 10 on the concave portion 15 side. Further, both side edge portions 24 of the bridge portion 23 are continuously connected from the end portion on the first cylindrical portion 21 side to the left and right end portions of the opening edge portion of the fixed hood portion 12. On the other hand, both side edge portions 24 at the end portion of the bridge portion 23 on the side of the second tubular portion 22 do not extend beyond half the circumference on the side opposite to the reel mounting side, and are not reel mounted opposite the center line 10a of the rod insertion hole 10. It stays in the side position.
