Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a handle for a fishing reel in which a handle knob is rotatably retained and locked on a support shaft at an end of a handle arm.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, a handle rotatably supported by a reel body which is wound to wind a fishing line around a spool has a handle arm as shown in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 5-31904. The outer cylinder is rotatably fitted to the shaft, one end of which is fixed to the end of the shaft, and the other end of the shaft is caulked to prevent the outer cylinder from slipping out, and the grip is fitted and fixed to the outer cylinder. For example, as seen in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 5-20561 and Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 8-89140, a hollow shaft portion of a handle knob is fitted to a spindle whose one end is fixed to an end portion of a handle arm. At the other end of the spindle, there is a handle with a handle that is secured by rivets, screws, or snap rings.

In the above structure, since both ends of the shaft are caulked, the workability in the manufacturing stage is poor, and the grip part cannot be separated from the shaft for maintenance or the like. In the above configuration, it is necessary to tighten and press fit a small part to the narrow part of the handle knob or the shaft in the cavity, and the workability in the manufacturing stage is poor, and since it is a small part, it is easy to lose it. Challenges remain.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The problem to be solved is that if both ends of the shaft are caulked, the workability at the manufacturing stage is poor and the grip part cannot be separated from the shaft for maintenance. Since it is necessary to tighten and press fit small parts to the shafts in narrow spaces and cavities, workability at the manufacturing stage is poor, and small parts are easy to lose.

In view of the above-mentioned drawbacks, an object of the present invention is to provide a handle of a fishing reel which can be easily prevented from coming off by an assembling operation in which a handle knob is fitted on a spindle.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a fishing reel in which a tubular portion of a handle knob is rotatably supported by a support shaft protruding from an end of a handle arm. An elastic locking member that is elastically deformable in the radial direction and axially retained in the circumferential groove formed at the end of the shaft is compressed by the inner peripheral surface of the tubular part when the handle knob is fitted on the support shaft. After being fitted, the handle is returned to the old position, engaged with the stepped portion of the tubular portion, and the handle knob is retained and locked to the spindle through the elastic locking member. Is.

[0007]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 According to the present invention, when the handle knobs 4, 7, 8 are pushed in the support shafts 1c, 2 in the direction of the handle arm 1 and the elastic locking members 5, 9 are elastically deformed in the radial direction, they are attached. The number of work steps is small, and the handle knobs 4, 7, 8 can be rotatably supported by the support shafts 1c, 2 to prevent them from slipping off. Therefore, it is easy to assemble and the number of parts is small.

When the handle knob 4 is pushed in, the elastic locking member 5 is radially deformed and compressed by the inner peripheral surface 4c. When the elastic locking member 5 is projected from the inner peripheral surface 4c, the elastic locking member 5 is expanded in the radial direction by elastic deformation to return to the old position, and the elastic locking member 5 is locked to the step portion 4g. Are locked in the axial direction.

When the handle knob 4 is pushed onto the support shaft 2 in the direction of the handle arm 1 and the elastic locking member 5 is elastically deformed in the radial direction, the work is reduced and the work is simple. Since the handle knob 4 can be rotatably supported on the support shaft 2 by being prevented from coming off, it can be easily assembled and the number of parts is small. When the handle knob 4 is rotated, the grip portion 4b is lightened by forming a cavity 4d in the longitudinal direction in the inside thereof, and the weight unevenness and the handle rotation balance are improved, so that the fishing operability is improved. As for the length shape of the caps 6 and 6, other length shape caps may be prepared and attached at the manufacturing stage, and the size of the handle knob 4 can be changed to accommodate a wide range of hands.

With the above-mentioned structure, the handle knob 4 can be supported by the support shaft 2 while preventing rotation of the handle knob 4 by a simple operation, and the structure can be simplified in addition to the improvement of the workability of assembling. The cost can be reduced.
