Description

  The present invention relates to a fishing rod formed by connecting a rod body in a swing-out form. In particular, the present invention relates to a fishing rod capable of adjusting the overall length of the fishing rod by positioning the rod located on the tip side while being housed on the rod side between a pair of adjacent rods.

  In a conventional fishing rod, a plurality of cylindrical rods can be sequentially inserted from the tip-side rod into the rod-side rod. When fishing, each chassis is pulled out to the tip side sequentially and fitted and fixed to be used as a single chassis. On the other hand, at the time of storage, the body on the tip side is sequentially stored in the body on the base side to make it compact.

  In addition, there are some conventional fishing rods that can be used for fishing by changing the overall length of the rod. That is, in the former rod of the fishing rod and the former upper rod connected to the tip side of the fishing rod, the former upper rod connected to the leading end side of the former rod is drawn to the ear tip side (hereinafter referred to as “stretched state”). ) And a state in which the former upper collar is inserted into the former casing (hereinafter referred to as “stored state”), the former upper collar is fitted and fixed to the former casing and positioned. And fishing can be performed by changing the overall length of the rod according to the situation. If an example of a specific structure is given, in the stretched state, the tip side end inner peripheral surface of the heel and the heel side end outer peripheral surface of the former upper heel are fitted. In the storage-like body, a butt plug is attached to the heel end of the heel and the heel end of the heel is fitted to the butt plug so that both can be fitted and fixed (patent) References 1, 2 etc.).

  As described above, in the conventional fishing rod in which the overall length of these fishing rods can be adjusted, the method of fitting and fixing the rods for positioning is to form fitting portions on the rods or the bottom plugs. The method of fitting is adopted.

However, such a fitting method tends to set the fitting force of the fitting portion tightly in advance because the fitting force decreases with long-term use. For this reason, in use, there is a problem that the fitting portion is inadvertently tightly fitted (fixed). In order to prevent and adjust such a decrease in fitting force, various attempts have been made in the above-mentioned Patent Documents 1 and 2, etc., but there is a limit to the improvement as long as the method of fitting is adopted. .
