  In the conventional electric reel, when the fishing line is wound up, a stopper fixed to the fishing line comes into contact with the stopper guide to stop the winding of the fishing line. For this reason, the conventional electric reel does not need to have a counter function for displaying the position of the device or a ship edge stop function for automatically stopping the motor driving at a predetermined position to stop the fishing line winding. However, in the case of installing a boat edge stop function on an electric reel having such a conventional stopper guide, the driving of the fishing line can be stopped by automatically stopping the driving of the motor at a predetermined position. A conventional stopper guide becomes unnecessary. However, in an electric reel having a conventional stopper guide, the stopper guide is fixed to the front end portion of the reel body. Therefore, when a boat edge stopping function is mounted on this electric reel, the stopper guide may feel obstructive depending on the angler. . Therefore, it is conceivable to install a ship edge stop function on an electric reel that does not have a stopper guide, but if the ship edge stop function does not function properly, there is a risk that the device will be caught in the spool because there is no stopper guide. Yes, some anglers may feel uneasy that there is no stopper guide.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a stopper guide that meets the needs of a fisherman in an electric reel.

  The electric reel according to the first aspect of the present invention is an electric reel that winds a fishing line, and includes a reel body, a spool, a motor, and a stopper guide. The spool is used for winding a thread that is rotatably supported by the reel body. The motor rotates the spool. The stopper guide is detachably attached to the reel body, and a stopper provided on the fishing line comes into contact with the fishing line when winding the fishing line to stop the winding of the fishing line.

Here, the reel body has a cylindrical fishing rod mounting portion in which a base end portion of a fishing rod through which a fishing line is inserted is detachably mounted on an inner peripheral portion. The stopper guide is detachably mounted on the outer periphery of the fishing rod mounting portion.

  In this electric reel, when the fishing line is being wound up, a stopper provided on the fishing line comes into contact with the stopper guide to stop the winding of the fishing line. Here, since the stopper guide is detachably attached to the reel body, since the stopper guide is not fixed to the fishing rod or the reel body as in the prior art, the angler who feels that the stopper guide gets in the way is the stopper guide. Since a fisherman who feels uneasy about having no stopper guide can mount the stopper guide, a stopper guide can be provided that meets the needs of the angler.

The reel body has a tubular fishing rod mounting portion in which a base end portion of a fishing rod through which a fishing line is inserted is detachably mounted on an inner peripheral portion. The stopper guide is detachably mounted on the outer periphery of the fishing rod mounting portion. Thereby, for example, when the fishing rod is attached to the fishing rod attachment portion, the stopper guide can be detachably attached to the outer peripheral portion of the rod attachment portion.

In this case, since the fishing line passes through the horizontally long contact hole portion while moving in the lateral direction (spool left-right direction), the fishing line can be evenly wound around the spool.

The electric reel according to a fourth aspect of the present invention is the electric reel according to any one of the first to third aspects, wherein the stopper guide is formed of a metal wire member. In this case, the stopper guide can be processed inexpensively and easily.

The electric reel according to a fifth aspect of the present invention is the electric reel according to any one of the first to fourth aspects, wherein the reel body has a first groove portion that prevents the stopper guide from coming off. In this case, for example, the stopper guide can be prevented from coming off by forming a first groove portion capable of restricting the movement of the stopper guide in the reel body in a direction away from the stopper guide (forward direction on the tip side of the fishing rod).

The electric reel according to a sixth aspect of the present invention is the electric reel according to any one of the first to fifth aspects, wherein the reel body has a second groove portion that prevents the stopper guide from rotating. In this case, for example, the stopper guide can be prevented from rotating by forming a second groove portion that can restrict the movement of the stopper guide in the rotation direction of the stopper guide in the reel body (the left-right direction on the side of the reel body side).

The electric reel according to a seventh aspect of the invention is the electric reel according to any one of the first to sixth aspects, further comprising a spool counter and a motor control unit. The spool counter detects the number of rotations of the spool. The motor control unit performs control to stop driving of the motor according to the number of rotations of the spool detected by the spool counter. In this case, a counter function for detecting the number of rotations of the spool by the spool counter and calculating the position of the device, and the motor control unit automatically stops driving the motor at a predetermined position corresponding to the number of rotations of the spool to It has a ship edge stop function for stopping the winding. Here, in the electric reel equipped with the ship edge stop function, the stopper guide is detachably attached to the reel body, so that the effect of the present invention becomes remarkable.

As shown in FIG. 4, the contact hole portion 10 a is an elliptical hole portion that is formed in an oblong shape so as to have a lateral width comparable to that of the spool portion of the spool 2, and the fishing line L moves in the lateral direction. It can pass. Further, as shown in FIG. 17, the contact hole portion 10a is formed so that the vertical width is smaller than the diameter of the stopper S. For this reason, the stopper S comes into contact with the contact hole portion 10a and the contact hole portion 10a. Never pass through. 2 to 4, the first mounting portion 10d is mounted on the outer peripheral portion of the large-diameter fishing rod mounting portion 1a, and the second mounting portion 10e is disposed on the outer periphery of the proximal end portion of the small-diameter fishing rod R. The first mounting portion 10d has a diameter that is larger than the diameter of the second mounting portion 10e. Further, as shown in FIG. 6, a bulging bulge 1c is formed in the lower part of the fishing rod mounting portion 1a, and the outer peripheral portion of the bulging portion 1c is connected to the outer peripheral portion of the fishing rod mounting portion 1a. An arcuate first groove portion 1d is formed. A lower portion of the first mounting portion 10d of the stopper guide 10 is mounted in the first groove portion 1d, thereby restricting the stopper guide 10 from moving in the front-rear direction and preventing the stopper guide 10 from coming off. . Further, as shown in FIG. 6, a first projecting portion 1e and a second projecting portion 1f projecting forward from the front portion of the reel body 1 are formed above the fishing rod mounting portion 1a. Between the 1e and the 2nd protrusion part 1f, the 2nd groove part 1g which can insert the lower part of the 1st connection part 10b of the stopper guide 10 is formed. Here, as shown in FIG. 4, since the first connecting portion 10b of the stopper guide 10 is inserted into the second groove portion 1g, the stopper guide 10 is restricted from moving in the left-right direction, and the stopper guide 10 is predetermined. It is locked at the position of.

  In order to attach such a stopper guide 10 to an electric reel and a fishing rod R, first, as shown in FIG. 6, with the fishing rod R removed from the fishing rod mounting portion 1a, the stopper guide 10 is attached to the outer periphery of the fishing rod mounting portion 1a. The first mounting portion 10d is mounted. At this time, as shown in FIG. 4, the first connecting portion 10b of the stopper guide 10 is positioned so as to be inserted into the second groove 1g between the first protruding portion 1e and the second protruding portion 1f, and the stopper The first mounting portion 10d of the guide 10 is mounted by being pushed into the first groove portion 1d of the bulging portion 1c. Then, with the first mounting portion 10d mounted in the first groove portion 1d, the fishing rod R is inserted and fixed into the fishing rod mounting portion 1a after the base end portion of the fishing rod R is inserted through the second mounting portion 10e of the stopper guide 10. To do. In order to remove the stopper guide 10 from the electric reel and the fishing rod R, a procedure reverse to the attaching operation may be performed.

  Next, after inserting the fishing line L wound around the spool 2 from the rear to the front through the contact hole portion 10a of the stopper guide 10 with the stopper guide 10 attached to the electric reel and fishing rod R as shown in FIG. The stopper S is inserted from the tip side of the fishing line L. The stopper S is a substantially spherical bead in which a fishing line insertion hole having a diameter slightly larger than the diameter of the fishing line L is formed at the center, and is a member having a diameter larger than that of the contact hole 10 a of the stopper guide 10. For this reason, the stopper S does not contact the contact hole 10a and pass through the contact hole 10a. The stopper S is a member having a larger diameter than the hole portion of the rearmost guide ring G attached to the outer peripheral portion of the fishing rod R. Therefore, the stopper S does not contact the rearmost guide ring G and pass through the rearmost guide ring G. Therefore, the stopper S can move back and forth between the stopper guide 10 and the rearmost guide ring G. Then, a plurality of guide rings G attached to the outer periphery of the fishing rod R are inserted through the tip of the fishing line L, and a road line M with a device H attached to the tip of the fishing line L is attached. A knot K is formed between the fishing line L and the road line M, and the knot K cannot pass through the fishing line insertion hole of the stopper S, but the knot K can pass through a plurality of guide rings G.

  When the fishing line is wound up in this state, the knot K passes through the rearmost guide ring G, and the knot K contacts the stopper S. Further, as the fishing line is wound up, the knot K pushes the stopper S toward the contact hole 10a of the stopper guide 10, and the stopper S comes into contact with the contact hole 10a of the stopper guide 10 as shown in FIG. Thus, the winding of the fishing line L is stopped. At this time, the device H stops before the tip of the fishing rod R, so that the device H is not caught in the frontmost guide ring G. Therefore, by providing such a stopper guide 10, it is possible to prevent the device H from being caught in the spool 2.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the spool 2 has a spool shaft 11 mounted on a side portion of a spool housing recess 1b formed by recessing the upper right front portion of the reel body 1 from other portions (see FIG. 7).

In order to prevent entanglement with 11, a wall portion 1 h made up of a plurality of columnar ribs erected so as to face the outer shape of the spool 2 is formed. The wall portion 1h is formed in a stepped manner by continuously arranging a plurality of columnar ribs erected on the side side bottom of the spool housing recess 1b so as to cover the entire lower outer periphery of the spool 2. Therefore, the fishing line L wound around the spool 2 can be prevented from dropping to the side of the spool housing recess 1b by the wall 1h. Furthermore, since the wall 1h is composed of a plurality of columnar ribs, the wall 1h and the spool are deformed by the deformation of the wall 1h due to sink marks or the like at the time of resin molding because the wall 1h is thick. 2 can be prevented from becoming unstable.

  A reel control unit 30 (see FIG. 10) including a microcomputer including a CPU, a RAM, a ROM, an I / O interface, and the like is disposed inside the reel body 1. As shown in FIG. 10, the reel control unit 30 includes various switch operation units such as a first switch operation unit 4, a second switch operation unit 5, a third switch operation unit 7, and a fourth switch operation unit 8, and a spool 2. The spool sensor 41 and the spool counter 42 for detecting the rotation direction and the rotation speed (rotation position data), the current value detection unit 44 for detecting the current value flowing through the motor 3, and the drive control of the motor 3 according to the control program. A motor control unit 31 that performs the display, a display control unit 32 that performs display control of the display unit 6, a storage unit 43 that stores various data, and other input / output units are connected. The spool sensor 41 is composed of two reed switches arranged side by side. The reed switch detects the two magnets 26 attached to the spool 2. The number of rotations of the spool 2 can be detected by counting the detection pulses with the spool counter 42. Further, the rotation direction of the spool 2 can be detected depending on which of the reed switches has issued the detection pulse first. The spool counter 42 is a counter that counts the number of times the spool sensor 41 is turned on and off, and rotational position data relating to the spool rotational speed is obtained from the counted value. The spool counter 42 decreases when the spool 2 rotates in the forward direction (rotation in the yarn feeding direction) and increases when the spool 2 rotates in the reverse direction. The storage unit 43 is composed of, for example, a nonvolatile memory such as an EEPROM, and stores learning result data, various data used when calculating the yarn length, and the like. The current value detection unit 44 is a current measurement sensor that detects a current value flowing through the motor 3. The motor control unit 31 automatically stops driving the motor 3 and winds up the fishing line L at a predetermined position according to the number of rotations of the spool 2 (for example, the device H is the tip end position of the fishing rod R, that is, the ship edge position). The ship edge stop function to stop is realized. Specifically, the motor control unit 31 sets the rotation speed of the spool 2 detected by the spool counter 42 to a predetermined range from the rotation speed of the spool 2 that stops the driving of the motor 3 (for example, from the ship edge stop position). When the current is within a predetermined distance, control for stopping the driving of the motor 3 is performed in accordance with the current flowing through the motor 3 detected by the current value detection unit 44. Here, the driving of the motor 3 is stopped when it is within a predetermined range of the ship edge stop position set in advance, for example, when a large current flows through the motor 3, that is, when a large load is generated in the motor 3. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the stopper S and the stopper guide 10 from being damaged due to the stopper S being strongly pulled into the stopper guide 10.

  In this electric reel, since the stopper guide 10 is detachably attached to the electric reel and the fishing rod R, the stopper guide 10 is not fixed to the fishing rod R or the reel body 1 as in the prior art. Therefore, a fisherman who feels that the stopper guide 10 is in the way can remove the stopper guide 10, or a fisherman who feels uneasy that there is no stopper guide 10 can wear the stopper guide 10.
