Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2019-154267

By the way, in the above-mentioned conventional artificial bait, the buoyancy generated when it is put into water acts uniformly on the entire artificial bait.

In this case, the posture of the artificial bait in water is not only maintained as it is when it is thrown in, but also tends to be kept constant in its overall shape.

On the other hand, the angler changes the posture of the artificial bait by hooking and performs an operation of inviting a fishing target, for example, a fish.
Although the posture of the artificial bait is changed by such hooking, the posture is maintained even after the hooking is stopped.

Then, when a further hooking operation is performed, the simulated bait moves in parallel while maintaining the above-mentioned posture, and the change in its behavior is small.

When the change in the behavior of the artificial bait in water is suppressed in this way, the invitation effect of the artificial bait is reduced and the fishing result is affected.
In addition, the constant shape in water is also a factor that lowers the above-mentioned invitation effect.

The present invention has been made to cope with the above-mentioned conventional problems, and when the artificial bait is put into water, the artificial bait can change its posture and shape by itself to improve the invitation operation. Is an issue to be solved.

In the simulated bait of the present invention, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a buoyancy adjusting portion having a mass smaller than the buoyancy generated by the part of the lure formed of the flexible material is provided. The portion other than the buoyancy adjusting portion is characterized in that the mass is equal to or greater than the buoyancy generated by this portion.

When the artificial bait of the present invention configured in this manner is put into water, the buoyancy adjusting portion has a mass smaller than the buoyancy generated in the buoyancy adjusting portion, so that the buoyancy adjusting portion floats. Take action.

On the other hand, since the parts other than the buoyancy adjusting part of the artificial bait have a mass equal to or greater than the buoyancy generated by this part, the parts other than the buoyancy adjusting part maintain the depth or settle. Behaves like this.

Due to the behavior of each part, the artificial bait changes its posture by itself, and the buoyancy adjustment part acts to float on the buoyancy adjustment part, and in combination with its flexibility, other than the buoyancy adjustment part. It is deformed upward with respect to the part of the buoyancy, which changes the shape of the artificial bait.

Further, when an operation such as hooking is performed by an angler, the posture of the artificial bait is forcibly changed by the hooking, and when the hooking is stopped and the load on the artificial bait is released, the artificial bait is described above. The posture is restored by the behavior.

Such a shape change and a posture change in water, and the artificial bait exerts an effect of inviting to a fishing object by its own posture change at the time of hooking.

Here, by appropriately setting the mass of the entire simulated bait with respect to the buoyancy acting on the entire simulated bait, the behavior of the floating and sinking of the simulated bait as a whole can be adjusted.

That is, if the mass of the entire artificial bait is equal to the buoyancy acting on the entire artificial bait, the artificial bait is stopped in water, if the mass is larger than the buoyancy, the behavior tends to settle, and if the mass is smaller than the buoyancy, the buoyancy tends to rise. Can cause the behavior of.

The buoyancy adjusting portion and the other parts are formed separately from each other, and by integrating these buoyancy adjusting parts and the other parts, a simulated bait can be formed.

With such a configuration, it is possible to easily adjust the mass of the buoyancy adjusting portion and other parts, thereby facilitating the production of a simulated bait.

The buoyancy adjusting portion can be formed by mixing a bubble generator into a part of the simulated bait.

With such a configuration, the mass of the buoyancy adjusting unit can be adjusted by adjusting the mixing amount of the bubble generator, so that this mass adjustment can be facilitated.
Further, by concentrating the bubble generator on the portion to be floated, the portion of the simulated bait to be deformed can be effectively set.

Then, it is preferable to use a glass bubble as the bubble generator.
This is because the glass bubbles have extremely small bubbles, and the mass of the buoyancy adjusting unit can be finely adjusted.
In addition, it is possible to facilitate the adjustment of the external force that causes the buoyancy adjusting portion to float, and to facilitate the deformation of the buoyancy adjusting portion.

Then, one of the buoyancy adjusting portion or the other portion is formed in advance, and one of the preformed buoyancy adjusting portion or the other portion is used as an insert member, and the buoyancy adjusting portion or the buoyancy adjusting portion is formed by insert molding using this insert member. By molding the other of the other parts and connecting these buoyancy adjusting parts with the other parts, a simulated bait can be easily produced.

On the other hand, it is also possible to connect the buoyancy adjusting portion and another portion so as to be relatively movable.
With such a configuration, the posture change of the buoyancy adjusting portion with respect to other parts can be made smoother.

According to the artificial bait of the present invention, it is possible to adjust its own posture and change its shape in water, and it is possible to enhance the effect of inviting to a fishing object.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 indicates a simulated bait according to the present embodiment, and in the present embodiment, a worm imitating a crayfish is illustrated.

The artificial bait 1 is formed of a material having flexibility as a whole, for example, vinyl chloride, silicone rubber, or the like, and is a pair of a body portion 1a and a pair of the body portion 1a connected from both sides of the middle portion toward one end portion. It is roughly configured by the claw portion 1b of the above.

Both claw portions 1b are formed as buoyancy adjusting portions by mixing glass bubbles as bubble generators inside.

That is, the mass of both claws 1b is kept small by the bubbles formed by the glass bubbles.
The term "glass bubble" as used herein refers to a hollow glass sphere. For example, glass bubbles, which are micro-hollow sphere fillers having a size of several tens of microns, can be exemplified.

The mass of both claws 1b is set to be smaller than the buoyancy acting on both claws 1b when the simulated bait 1 is put into water.
Therefore, both claw portions 1b exhibit a floating tendency behavior when they are put into water.

The mass of the body portion 1a is set to be equal to or larger than the buoyancy acting on the body portion 1a when the simulated bait 1 is put into water.

Here, the behavior of the simulated bait 1 in water is adjusted by setting the mass of the entire simulated bait 1 with respect to the buoyancy acting on the entire simulated bait 1 while maintaining the behavior of the floating tendency of both claw portions 1b. be able to.

That is, when the mass of the simulated bait 1 is larger than the buoyancy acting on the entire simulated bait 1, the simulated bait 1 behaves in the subsidence direction, and when the total mass is reduced, the simulated bait 1 behaves in the ascending direction. If the total mass is equal to the buoyancy, the artificial bait 1 will stop in water.

The simulated bait 1 according to the present embodiment having such a configuration first prepares an injection material in which a predetermined amount of a plasticizer or a glass bubble is mixed with a flexible material.

Then, by injecting the injection material into a mold having a cavity having a shape equivalent to the outer shape of both claws 1b and the connecting portion 1c connecting one ends of these claws 1b, FIG. As shown in 2, both claws 1b connected by the connecting portion 1c are formed at one end.

Then, both claws 1b integrated as described above are used as an insert member, and the body portion 1a is wrapped around the connecting portion 1c as shown by a chain line in FIG. 3 by insert molding using the insert member. To mold.

Here, as the injection material used for molding the body portion 1a, a material obtained by removing glass bubbles from the injection material of the claw portion 1b is used.

As a result, as shown in FIG. 1, it is possible to form a simulated bait 1 in which the body portion 1a and the claw portion 1b are connected.

In the present embodiment, an example in which the total mass of the simulated bait 1 is made larger than the buoyancy acting on the entire simulated bait 1 will be described.

When the simulated bait 1 of the present embodiment formed in this way is dropped into water, as shown in FIGS. 5 (a), (b) and (c), it sinks from near the water surface toward the water.

Here, the body portion 1a tries to settle while maintaining the horizontal posture, but an external force acts on the claw portion 1b in the lifting direction.
Here, since the artificial bait 1 is formed of a flexible material, the claw portion 1b is relatively moved upward of the body portion 1a as shown in FIGS. 5 (b) and 5 (c). The shape of the artificial bait 1 changes accordingly.

On the other hand, when a load is applied by hooking to the body 1a of the simulated bait 1 as shown by an arrow in FIG. 6 (a), the simulated bait 1 is moved upward as shown in FIG. 6 (b). The posture can be changed so that it becomes.

Further, as shown in FIG. 6B, when the hooking is stopped and the load on the body portion 1a is released, the artificial bait 1 moves upward by the buoyancy of the claw portion 1b as shown by the arrow in the figure. The behavior occurs and the posture returns to the posture shown in FIG. 6 (a).

As described above, the simulated bait 1 of the present embodiment exhibits a behavior of returning to the original posture by itself when the external force for changing the posture is released even when the posture is intentionally changed in water. ..

Moreover, the shape of the simulated bait 1 is changed by moving the claw portion 1b as the buoyancy adjusting portion relative to the body portion 1a which is a portion other than the buoyancy adjusting portion.

Therefore, the effect of inviting the artificial bait 1 to the fishing object is improved.

The configuration shown in the above embodiment is an example, and can be variously changed based on the type of the object to be fished, the request of the angler, the type of artificial bait, and the like.

For example, the portion that causes the levitation behavior can be arbitrarily set, and the bubble generator for reducing the mass of the portion is not limited to the glass bubble and can be arbitrarily selected.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the claw portion 1b as the buoyancy adjusting portion and the body portion 1a as a portion other than the buoyancy adjusting portion are integrally connected, but these are connected so as to be relatively movable. It may be.

With such a configuration, the posture change of the buoyancy adjusting unit with respect to a portion other than the buoyancy adjusting unit can be made smoother.

Further, as in the simulated bait 10 shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the buoyancy behavior concentration portion X can be provided at the tip of the claw portion 10b to provide a portion for causing the buoyancy behavior.

With such a configuration, the portion that causes the floating behavior is separated from the pivotal portion between the claw portion 10b and the body portion 10a, so that the relative rotation of the claw portion 10b with respect to the body portion 10a is described above. The relative rotation of the claw portion 1b in the above-described embodiment can be performed more smoothly and reliably.
