Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a spinning reel, and more particularly to a spinning reel that is mounted on a fishing rod and can wind and feed a fishing line.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In general, a spinning reel includes a reel body that rotatably supports a handle, a rotor, and a spool. The spool of the spinning reel is movable back and forth with respect to the reel body, and is integrated with a bobbin body around which the fishing line is wound, a large-diameter flange disposed at the front end of the bobbin body, and behind the bobbin body. And a formed skirt portion. The skirt portion is provided with a fishing line locking portion for locking the fishing line wound around the bobbin trunk.
[0003]
Such a fishing line locking portion is for locking the tip end portion of the fishing line wound around the bobbin trunk so that the fishing line is not separated from the bobbin trunk. This type of fishing line locking portion has, for example, a locking portion made of synthetic resin and a plate-like mounting portion integrally formed with the locking portion. The locking portion is, for example, exposed along the outer peripheral surface of the skirt portion, and is arranged to open to the rear side with a slight gap from the skirt portion.
[0004]
In order to lock the fishing line using this fishing line locking portion, the angler lifts the locking portion to widen the opening, and locks the tip of the fishing line so that it is sandwiched between the locking portion and the skirt portion. . In this case, since the locking portion is made of synthetic resin, the locked fishing line is not easily detached by the elastic force of the synthetic resin. For this reason, in order to remove the locked fishing line, the fisherman lifts the locking portion and releases the locking of the fishing line by pulling in the direction opposite to the direction in which the fishing line is locked.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In such a spool, for example, a fishing method is known in which an intermediate portion of a fishing line is locked in order to determine a casting length. In this case, first, the intermediate portion of the fishing line is locked to the locking portion so as to have a desired casting length, and the remaining fishing line is wound. Then, when casting is performed with the bale opened, the fishing line is fed out by a desired casting length, and the locking of the intermediate portion of the fishing line is maintained. On the other hand, when a large tension is generated on the fishing line locked by the locking part due to fish or the like, the fishing line needs to be naturally released from the locking part by the tension acting when the fishing line is fed out through the line roller. There is.
[0006]
Therefore, when the middle portion of the fishing line is locked, if the fishing line is fed out via the line roller and a large tension is applied, the fishing line configured so that the fishing line locked to the fishing line locking portion can be easily removed. A locking part is considered.
[0007]
However, when the fishing line locking part is located on the opposite side of the line roller, or when the fishing line locking part is located behind the reel, that is, when the distance between the line roller and the fishing line locking part is long, Since the angle formed by the fishing line becomes an acute angle, it may be difficult to unlock the fishing line. For this reason, when performing the fishing method which latches the intermediate part of a fishing line, since a fishing line does not come off naturally, it is inconvenient.
[0008]
An object of the present invention is to provide a convenient spinning reel that can lock an intermediate portion of a fishing line.
[0009]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
A spinning reel according to a first aspect of the present invention is a spinning reel that is mounted on a fishing rod and capable of winding and feeding the fishing line, and a reel body that is mounted on the fishing rod, and a spool that is movable relative to the reel body and on which the fishing line is wound around the outer periphery. A spool having a trunk portion and a skirt portion provided at the rear end portion of the bobbin trunk portion, a rotor arm rotatably supported by the reel body, and a line roller for guiding the fishing line are provided. A rotor arm attached to the rotor arm and a bail arm for winding the fishing line around the bobbin trunk, the rotor rotating relative to the spool when the fishing line is fed out, and the fishing line is locked via the line roller by locking the fishing line on the outer periphery of the skirt part. A fishing line locking part that releases the locking of the fishing line by the tension acting when it is fed out, and the line roller and the fishing line locking And a protruding portion which protrudes from the rotor so that the fishing line is caught when fishing line via the arranged line roller is fed between.
[0010]
In this spinning reel, for example, an intermediate portion of the fishing line is locked to the fishing line locking portion. Then, when a large tension is applied when the fishing line is fed out via the line roller in a state where the fishing line engaging portion is engaged with the fishing line engaging portion, the fishing line is detached from the fishing line engaging portion. At this time, the fishing line to be fed is caught on the protruding portion formed on the rotor, and the angle formed by the fishing line is not likely to be an acute angle.
[0011]
Here, the fishing line can be easily detached even when a fishing method for locking the middle part of the fishing line is performed, which is convenient.
The spinning reel according to a second aspect is the spinning reel according to the first aspect, wherein the protrusion is provided on the rotor arm. In this case, particularly when the rotor arm is positioned on the spool side from the bail arm, the protrusion is provided between the line roller of the rotor arm on the line roller side and the fishing line locking portion. Unlocking the locked fishing line can be assisted.
[0012]
