Description

  The present invention relates to a fishing rod having a reel seat to which a reel is attached.

  The fishing rod reel sheet has a hood for inserting and fixing the reel legs on the tip side and the butt end side, and one of them is formed integrally with the reel sheet as a fixing hood (see Patent Document 1).

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-168377 (Patent Number [0021], FIG. 10)

As described above, the fixed hood is formed integrally with the reel sheet. Therefore, the decoration on the surface of the fixed hood is often set to be the same as that of the reel sheet, and the change is poor. On the other hand, the fixed hood may be damaged when the reel leg contacts and is attached to the edge of the fixed hood, or may be damaged due to adhesion of dirt.
For this purpose, a decorative cover is provided.When this decorative cover is installed, the portion of the decorative cover that covers the hood is covered with the hood in a slightly expanded state to release the operating force to expand the decorative cover. The outer surface is elastically attached.
In the above mounting operation, when the decorative cover is elastically deformed and expanded, there is a problem that a crack or the like is generated at the edge of the insertion hole.

An object of the present invention is to provide a reel seat structure capable of avoiding damage to the hood and avoiding fouling, and a fishing rod, and more particularly to a decorative cover .

〔Constitution〕
In the reel seat in which the hood for inserting the reel leg and fixing the reel is formed on the tip side and the buttock side,
The hood of the outer surface of the reel sheet, possible and possible cover body [elastically deformed is] fitted mounted at a predetermined position in a state of being elastically deformed, the insertion of the reel leg is inserted into the hood to the cover body And at least one of the heel side or the buttock side portion of the insertion hole is provided with a semicircular cut part that enters the heel side or the buttock side of the cover body. The effects are as follows.

[Action]
Due to the presence of the decorative cover covering the hood, the decorative effect can be enhanced by giving the decorative cover a decoration different from the reel sheet. Even if the reel leg attached to the hood tries to contact the hood, the cosmetic cover comes in contact first, so even if the cosmetic cover is damaged, it can be dealt with by replacing the cosmetic cover. Moreover, since the material of the decorative cover can be made different from the material of the hood, it can be made strong in strength, and can be made strong against contact scratches and stains.
Although it is a decorative cover having such goodness, as described above, the insertion hole for inserting the reel leg is formed. And the method of mounting | wearing a hood with a decorative cover is taken using the elastic deformation force which decorative cover itself has. When installing this cosmetic cover, the cosmetic cover is elastically attached to the outer surface of the hood by releasing the expanding operating force by covering the hood with the hood of the cosmetic cover slightly expanded. .
In the above mounting operation, when the decorative cover is elastically deformed and expanded, there is a problem that a crack or the like is generated at the edge of the insertion hole.
In the present invention, by paying attention to such a point, a cut portion is provided to enter the heel side or the buttock side of the cover body. By forming this cut portion, the operating force for expanding the decorative cover is allowed to deform in the widening direction at this cut portion, and the generation of internal stress generated at the edge of the insertion hole is suppressed and cracks are generated. Etc. can be suppressed.

〔effect〕
Therefore, the use of the decorative cover can enhance the protection and decorativeness of the hood portion, and can eliminate the inconvenience when the decorative cover itself is mounted.

Characterizing feature of the invention according to claim 2, the site of over the outer surface of the rod tip side hood Li Rushito the reel footrest surface, to form a seat for mounting mounting the reel leg, for the attachment An elastically deformable cover body that is externally fitted to the pedestal, and an insertion hole that is inserted into the heel side hood are formed in the cover body, the insertion hole being a semicircular arc-shaped portion on the hood side and the pedestal Side semicircular arc-shaped portions are connected to both sides of the semicircular arc-shaped portions, and semicircular cut portions that enter the cover main body are provided in portions other than the both side portions of the insertion hole. The operational effects are as follows.

[Function and effect]
In other words, since the base for attaching the decorative cover is formed on the tip side hood part, the decorative cover can be mounted without any step difference from the surface of the reel seat, and the decorative cover itself is attached to the angler's finger. It can be avoided in advance that it comes out of contact.
When casting the device, the reel seat part is gripped, but the finger acts on the hood part at that time, but in that case, the cosmetic cover can be attached without any step, so the finger is less likely to be pressed .
Moreover, when the decorative cover is deformed and expanded, stress concentration occurs on both side surfaces connecting the semicircular arc-shaped portion on the pedestal side and the semicircular arc-shaped portion on the hood side, and a crack or the like is generated in that portion. However, in the present invention, since the notch portion that enters the cover body is provided on the tip side or the buttocks side portion other than the both side portions, the notch portion spreads to relieve stress concentrated on the both side portions. Thus, cracks and the like occurring at the edge of the insertion hole can be avoided.

  A characteristic configuration of the invention according to claim 3 is that, in the invention according to claim 1 or 2, the cut portion is formed at a buttock side end portion of the insertion hole, and the function and effect thereof are as follows. Street.

[Function and effect]
In other words, after the incision portion is mounted at a predetermined position, it is positioned not on the hood side but on the reel leg mounting portion side, so that it is relatively inconspicuous and is hidden by the reel leg when the reel is mounted. You don't have to worry about catching things.

A characteristic configuration of the invention according to claim 4 is the invention according to any one of claims 1 to 3, wherein the decorative cover is attached to the front wall of the hood side of the tip side hood, and the front wall thereof. It consists of a vertical side wall that extends from the both side edges of the wall toward the buttock side, and an upper wall that extends from the upper end of the buttock side end of both side walls. A through hole for inserting a reel leg is formed through the wall, and a semicircular cut portion that is recessed toward the buttock side on the buttock side edge of the insertion hole is formed on the upper wall. The function and effect are as follows.

[Function and effect]
When the decorative cover is expanded, the vertically oriented side wall portion is expanded, so that stress tends to concentrate on the edge portion in the vicinity of the side wall of the insertion hole. Therefore, as described above, by providing a notch in the upper wall connected to the upper ends of both side walls, deformation of the side wall can be allowed and cracking can be prevented.

Decorative cover characterizing feature of the invention according to claim 5, together with the rod tip side to the fixed hood and rod butt side provided with the reel sheet disposed and a movable hood, according to any one of claims 1 to 4 Accordingly, there is a point that is configured to cover up reel leg mounting seat of the rod trailing from said fixed hood, the effects thereof are as follows.

[Function and effect]
It was possible to protect the reel seat and diversify the decorations, which helped improve the quality of the fishing rod as a whole.

A fishing rod 1 used for sea fishing, rod fishing, etc. will be described.
The fishing rod 1 is composed of a main rod 2, a plurality of middle rods, and a tip rod, each having a yarn guide, and is configured as a swing-out rod. As shown in FIG. The reel sheet 5 to be attached is externally fitted.

  The fishing rod 1 is basically formed by winding a prepreg formed by impregnating a reinforcing fiber such as glass fiber or carbon fiber with a thermosetting resin such as epoxy around a mandrel, and firing the rod-shaped material formed into a cylinder. Is formed.

The configuration of the reel sheet 5 will be described.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the reel sheet 5 is formed by injection of an engineering resin such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or ABS resin. A fixed hood (tip side hood) 6 is integrally formed with the reel seat body on the front side to which the reel legs are attached. It is mounted so that it can slide in the core direction.

As shown in FIG. 8, an opening 9 communicating with the internal space is formed on the rear side of the reel sheet 5 that is 180 ° opposite to the front side, and a rubber cover body 8 to be described later is formed in the opening 9. It will be bonded and fixed.
As shown in FIG. 8, the opening 9 is formed as a substantially widened elongated hole, the front end is provided to a position corresponding to the fixed hood 6, and the rear end is in a range in which the movable hood 7 moves. It extends to the vicinity of the rear end of the moving range.

  The opening 9 has the widest width at the buttock side slightly from the front end, and the widest width portion is suppressed to a circumferential length smaller than 180 ° in the circumferential direction. That is, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 9, when the reel sheet 5 is viewed from the lateral side, the edge of the opening 9 is below the saddle axis X that is the center in the vertical width direction of the reel sheet 5. It is formed in a state that does not enter. By forming the opening 9, even if the reel sheet 5 is fitted to the main shaft 2, only the opening can be reduced in weight and can be directly contacted from the opening 9. It is possible to improve the sensitivity when catching the fish hit through the Marshal 2.

  The rubber cover body 8 will be described. As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the rubber cover body 8 is an elastomer that is injection-molded using neoprene or the like as a material and is rich in elasticity. The outer shape of the rubber cover body 8 is formed on the opening edge 9 a of the opening 9. It is formed in the shape along. The outer peripheral surface of the rubber cover body 8 is subjected to a “texture” or “pear finish” process so as to have an aesthetic appearance and an anti-slip function. In the side view of the rubber cover body 8, as shown in FIG. 9, the rubber cover body 8 has a middle-high shape with the center in the left-right width direction being increased, and along the vertical axis X as shown in FIG. 10. When viewed from the direction, the longitudinal section has a substantially arc shape, and the portion having the widest lateral length in the lateral width direction has the arcuate protruding portion a having the largest radius. The position of the arcuate protrusion a is set at a position closer to the fixed hood 6 side than the center position b of the reel legs of the reels 3 mounted on the hoods 6 and 7.

  The procedure for attaching the rubber cover body 8 is as follows. First, the reel sheet 5 is fitted in a state of being fitted from the front end of the main shaft 2, and the reel sheet 5 is fixed at a predetermined position of the main shaft 2 with an adhesive. In order to fix the reel sheet 5, an adhesive is applied between the reel sheet 5 and the outer peripheral surface of the main shaft 2, but the opening 9 is formed in the reel sheet 5. Compared with the case where there is no adhesive, the adhesive spreads evenly and is easily applied to the inner peripheral surface of the reel sheet 5.

When performing Fukase fishing like in a fishing rod 1 described above, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, when leading fish make a fishing rod 1, the proximal portion of the index finger and thumb gripping the reel seat 5 Since it will be located in the state caught on the circular-arc-shaped protrusion part a, the fishing rod 1 is hard to slide down and it is easy to perform retraction operation. Moreover, since the arcuate protrusion a is also the widest portion, the portion of the rubber cover body 8 that comes into contact with the finger to be grasped can be widened, so that it is less likely to press the finger and is held for a long time for fishing Even if you do, there is little fatigue. Further, since the area of the finger that contacts the rubber cover body 8 is wider toward the index finger side, it is difficult to slip. Since the grip is stable when the fish caught in the needle is pulled in, it is easy to perform a reversing operation and the fish can be easily taken in.

  As described above, since the opening 9 is formed on the back side of the reel sheet 5 and the rubber cover 8 is fitted and fixed in a state of fitting into the opening edge 9a, the reel sheet 5 can be formed without forming the opening 9. Rather than directly bonding and fixing to the outer peripheral surface, the amount of protrusion of the rubber cover body 8 from the base rod 2 to the radially outer side can be suppressed, and the weight can be reduced. Further, when the rubber cover body 8 is directly attached to the outer peripheral surface of the reel sheet 5 without providing the opening 9 in the reel sheet 5, the radius from the shaft core X to the protruding portion of the rubber cover body 8 The length of the direction becomes large and difficult to grip. On the other hand, in the present invention, as described above, the opening 9 is formed in the reel sheet 5, and the rubber cover body 8 is fitted in a state of being dropped into the opening 9. The length in the radial direction from X to the protruding portion of the rubber cover body 8 can be shortened, making it easier to grip.

  When deep fishing is performed with the fishing rod 1 described above, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, when the fishing rod 1 is raised and the fish is pulled in, the proximal portion of the index finger and the thumb holding the reel seat 5 Is located in a state of being caught by the arcuate protrusion a, the fishing rod 1 is less likely to slide down and is easy to perform a retraction operation. Moreover, since the arcuate protrusion a is also the widest portion, the portion of the rubber cover body 8 that comes into contact with the finger to be grasped can be widened, so that it is less likely to press the finger and is held for a long time for fishing operation. Even if you do, there is little fatigue. Further, since the area of the finger that contacts the rubber cover body 8 is wider toward the index finger side, it is difficult to slip. Since the grip is stable when the fish caught in the needle is pulled in, it is easy to perform a reversing operation and the fish can be easily taken in.

  The configuration of the movable hood 7 will be described. Guide grooves 5a, 5a are provided on both lateral sides of the mounting base 5A of the movable hood 7 of the reel seat 5, and both leg portions 7A, 7A of the movable hood 7 are inserted into the guide grooves 5a, 5a to It is configured to be slidable. A rack groove for locking and fixing the movable hood 7 is formed on the upper surface of the mounting base 5A, and a lock piece provided on the movable hood 7 engages with the rack groove so that the movable hood 7 can be positioned. It is like that.

  The decorative cover 10 for the fixed hood 6 will be described. As shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, the decorative cover 10 includes a dome portion 10 </ b> A that is attached to a reel leg mounting base 5 </ b> A located on the buttock side from the hood-like outer peripheral surface of the fixed hood 6, and its dome portion. The rear extension 10B is a rectangular shape that extends to the buttock side of 10A and is fitted into the mounting base 5A. The dome portion 10A is connected to a semi-conical front wall 10a, a vertical side wall 10b extending rearward from both side ends of the front wall 10a, and a rear end portion above both side walls 10b. And an upper wall 10c. The side wall 10b and the upper wall 10c extend rearward, and constitute the above-described rear extension 10B. An insertion hole 10C for inserting a reel leg is formed through the middle of the front wall 10a, the side wall 10b, and the upper wall 10c. Here, the dome portion 10A and the rear extension portion 10B are referred to as a cover body.

  The decorative cover 10 is formed by applying resin molding to a thin metal plate that has been molded, and is attached to a predetermined position in an elastically deformed state. The mounting and fixing state is also performed using an adhesive. That is, as shown in FIG. 4, fitting step portions 6A and 5B for elastically sandwiching and mounting from the fixed hood 6 to the mounting base 5A are formed, and the decorative cover 10 is formed on the step portions 6A and 5B. Is supposed to be attached. The step portion 6A is formed to be recessed into the front wall 10a and the side wall 10b, and the step portion 5B is formed to be recessed into the mounting base 5A. Therefore, with the decorative cover 10 attached to the stepped portion 6A, the decorative cover 10 and the boundary surface of the fixed hood 6 are configured to be flush with each other.

  As shown in FIG. 4, a notch portion 10 d that enters toward the rear extension portion 10 </ b> B is formed at the edge of the insertion hole 10 </ b> C provided in the decorative cover 10 on the rear extension portion 10 </ b> B side. In the case where this notch 10d is not provided, in order to attach the decorative cover 10 to the stepped portions 6A and 5B, if an elastic deformation force in the left-right direction or the like is applied to the decorative cover 10 itself, the insertion hole 10C There were inconveniences such as cracks occurring on the left and right edge portions 10e and 10e as both side portions. Therefore, as described above, when the cutout portion 10d is formed, even if the decorative cover 10 is elastically deformed so as to extend to the left and right, the cutout portion 10d spreads in the left-right width direction, and the elastic deformation force is inserted. Concentration on the left and right edge portions 10e and 10e of the hole 10C is alleviated.

  The decorative cover 10 is described as being molded with only a metal material such as stainless steel or aluminum, but it may be formed by resin injection molding. Moreover, what gave the metal coating to the resin molded product may be used. Furthermore, a decorative effect and strength improvement may be achieved by fitting metal into only the edge of the insertion hole 10C of the resin molded product.

Next, the rear receiving member 11 having a function of preventing the movable hood 7 from coming off will be described. As shown in FIGS. 3 to 7, the rear receiving member 11 is a resin injection-molded product, and includes an upper wall 11 </ b> A having a rear downward inclined surface and left and right vertical side walls 11 </ b> B. As shown in FIG. 5, two fitting recesses 11a, 11a that are long in the left-right direction are formed on the inner surface in a state parallel to the front and rear.
On the other hand, a mounting base 5C for fitting and fixing the rear receiving member 11 is recessed at the rear end position of the mounting base 5A in the reel seat 5, and the horizontally long protrusion 5b is parallel to the mounting base 5C. 5b are provided.

  With such a configuration, when the rear receiving member 11 is placed on the mounting base 5C and the upper wall 11A of the rear receiving member 11 is pushed in, the horizontally long protrusions 5b and 5b formed on the mounting base 5C become the rear receiving member 11. The rear receiving member 11 is mounted and fixed to the mounting base 5 </ b> C by the elastic deformation force of the rear receiving member 11. Fixing is performed by caulking. The rear receiving member 11 has an inwardly inclined surface on the periphery, and the inwardly inclined surface is in contact with an inclined surface 5c formed on the peripheral surface of the mounting base 5C.

  As shown in FIG. 7, an insertion recess 11 b for a removal tool that is recessed forward is provided on the back surface side of the rear edge of the upper wall 11 </ b> A of the rear receiving member 11. The insertion recessed groove 11b is formed so as to be recessed upward on the back surface side of the rear edge portion, and therefore does not appear on the surface of the upper wall 11A. On the other hand, the mounting base 5C for mounting the rear receiving member 11 is formed with a recessed groove 5c that is recessed downward corresponding to the insertion recessed groove 11b. By forming an insertion hole with the insertion recessed groove 11b and the recessed groove 5c on the mounting base side, an insertion hole is formed on the rear receiving member 11 fitted to the mounting base 5C of the reel sheet 5. The rear receiving member 11 can be removed simply by inserting a flathead screwdriver or the like as a removal tool and performing a light lifting operation.

  Next, the structure about the elbow rest part 12 and the reel sheet | seat 5 from the mounting part of the reel sheet | seat 5 of the base rod 2 is demonstrated. As shown in FIG.1 and FIG.2, the protrusion length to the radial direction from the collar axis X of the rubber cover body 8 and the elbow pad part 12 is set to a different length. That is, as shown in FIG. 2, the protrusion length from the saddle shaft X to the elbow rest 12 to the maximum diameter portion is longer than the protrusion length P from the saddle shaft X to the arcuate protrusion a of the rubber cover body 8. Q is lengthened.

  Since such a configuration is adopted, as shown in FIG. 1, the elbow rest 12 is brought into contact with the elbow when the fishing rod 1 is operated while standing, or while waiting for hitting in the state where it is laid horizontally. You will be operating the kite. When such an operation is performed, the relationship between the protruding lengths is as described above, so that the wrist that grips the reel seat 5 with the elbow applied to the elbow rest 12 is stable, and the operation of the heel is performed. It becomes easy. The above-mentioned reversing operation becomes easier.

As shown in FIG.1 and FIG.2, the elbow pad part 12 is specially painted over the perimeter. In other words, this special paint is applied with a two-component special urethane resin paint, and the elbow rest 12 with this special paint exhibits the basic performance of "material protection" and "beauty" that ordinary paint has. At the same time, the touch when touching the elbow rest 12 is full of “soft taste” and “warmth”. That is, by applying such a paint, a slight elastic deformation force can be applied to the elbow rest 12 and an anti-slip effect on the elbow applied to the elbow rest 12 can be provided. In addition, since the rubber cover 8 is provided on the rear surface of the reel sheet 5, the grip feeling is improved, and not only the case where the bag is laid down and waits for a hit by the cooperation of the both, The fishing rod 1 can be easily operated even in the case of performing an operation of pulling out a fish while standing up.

  The relationship with the width D of the reel sheet 5 will be described. As shown in FIGS. 9, 10, and 11, the width of the decorative cover 10 is formed so as not to protrude from the width D of the reel sheet 5 in a state where the decorative cover 10 is attached to the fixed hood 6. In addition, the side surface of the decorative cover 10 and the side surface of the reel sheet 5 are connected to each other without a step. As a result, as shown in FIG. 1, when the reel leg is gripped, the index finger or the like wound around the decorative cover 10 is less likely to be compressed.
