DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below in more detail with reference to the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a side view of a fishing rod according to the present invention.
2, a second rod 14 is spliced, and further a tip rod 16 is spliced. At the tip of the tip rod 16, a line retaining portion 18 for binding a fishing line is formed.

[0008] The tip of each rod tube 10,12,14 and tip rod 1
In the first half of 6, a visual recognition body 20, which will be described in detail later, is provided. The length of each of the visual recognition members 20 in the direction of the rod tube is 5 cm so that the angler who looks at the fishing rod obliquely from above and behind can easily recognize the fishing rod.
It is preferable that it is at least about the same. Further, in this embodiment, it is provided over the entire circumference in the circumferential direction, but it may be provided in a divided manner in the circumferential direction or may be provided partially.

[0009] Other rod pipes 10, 12, except for the tip rod 16,
14 is provided only at the tip, whereas the tip pole 16 is provided at three locations in the longitudinal direction. This is a part mainly deformed by the fish tip, which is bent by the fish signal. In order to make it easier to visually detect this fish signal, it is configured to be visible in any part of the front part of the large tip beam that is largely bent. It is. On the other hand, when the fishing rod is held at a certain angle or the like, the visual recognition body 20 at each rod tube tip may fluctuate in its holding state, and the fluctuation is reflected by the reflected light from the visual recognition body 20. Can be easily visually recognized by the angler as a change in the color tone. Therefore, the visual recognition object 20 depends on its purpose.
Only, or only at the tip of the rod tube 10, 12, or 14.

FIG. 2 is an enlarged vertical cross-sectional view of a portion of the visual recognition body 20 of the tip rod 16. The layer of the visual recognition body 20 is provided on the rod tube main body layer 16A, and the transparent body protective layer 22 is coated from above to protect the visual recognition body 20.
The transparent protective layer 22 is formed by applying a transparent or translucent paint such as an epoxy resin or a urethane resin.

The visual object 20 is formed by forming a holographic layer 20C by holography on a thin light-reflecting substrate 20B such as an aluminum vapor-deposited layer, a titanium layer, a plating layer, a silver foil, a gold foil and the like. The light-reflective substrate 2 is protected by a thin and light-transmitting film 20D.
An adhesive layer 20A is formed on the lower surface of OB, and is adhered to the outside of the rod pipe main body layer 16A by the adhesive layer 20A.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the visual recognition body 20 is configured to be adhered, and is formed separately from the rod tube. The hologram layer 20C can be protected during the attaching operation, and the efficiency of the attaching operation can be improved. However, in order to eventually cover and protect the light-transmitting protective layer 22, the light-transmitting film 20D may not be used. In this case, the structure becomes thinner by the amount of the film.

The hologram layer 20C is obtained by recording interference fringes generated by causing a signal wave diffracted by a subject and a reference wave to interfere with each other on a photosensitive material such as a thermoplastic recording material. Various color tones (color patterns) are observed due to interference of light reflection by the uneven surface of the layer 20C and the surface of the light reflecting substrate 20B below the layer 20C, and the color varies depending on the angle viewed by the angler. I do. Therefore, the angler looks at the color tone of the visible body reflecting the change in the holding angle of the fishing rod and the bending deformation,
The change of the holding state and the fish signal can be easily and reliably captured.

Another pattern layer by screen printing or the like may be superimposed on the upper surface of the visual recognition member 20, between the lower part of the rod tube main body layer 16A, or between each layer of the visual recognition member 20. Further, in the above embodiment, the visual recognition body 20 is adhered by the adhesive layer 20A, but the light reflecting substrate 20B can be integrated with the resin of the prepreg used for the rod pipe when the rod pipe main body layer 16A is formed. . Further, it is also possible to form the light reflection substrate 20B directly on the surface of the rod tube body layer 16A, which is polished smoothly, by vapor deposition or the like, form the hologram layer 20C, and finally form the light-transmitting protective layer 22. is there.

In the above description, the rod main body layer of the tip rod 16 has been mainly described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the same applies to the middle rod and the former rod. Further, the shape of the visual recognition body 20 is not limited to a rectangular shape in the developed view, and may be an arbitrary shape.

[0016]

As is apparent from the above description, according to the first and second aspects of the present invention, since the visual object using the hologram is provided outside the rod tube, the visual object for the angler who views the fishing rod obliquely from above and behind. Can easily be visually recognized, and because of the interference of the light reflected on the surface of the hologram layer and the surface of the light reflecting layer, the reflected light that is reflected by the visible object and enters the eyes of the angler according to the bending of the fishing rod or a change in the holding posture. Can be regarded as a change in color tone. In claim 3, in addition to the above, the visual recognition body is protected. In claim 4, the light reflecting layer is formed directly on the surface of the rod tube main body layer, and the light reflecting layer is formed as a vapor-deposited layer.
In addition to the functions and effects of the above-mentioned claims, it can be made thinner and lighter.
