  Usually, a fishing reel includes a drag device that applies a braking force (hereinafter referred to as “drag force”) to a fishing line drawer when a fish is caught. When the fishing line is pulled out against the drag force by such a drag device, the fishing line is pulled out through the groove part, so that friction is generated between the groove part and the fishing line. For this reason, there was a possibility that a fishing line might be damaged. When the fishing line is a PE line, the coating may be peeled off. Furthermore, since a load also acts on the level winder through the fishing line guide, there is a possibility of causing a failure.

  Also, depending on the position of the fishing line guide body in the left-right direction, there may be variations in drag force, which may affect the bite, sensitivity, and operability of the fishing line, and there was a desire to improve this. .

  Hereinafter, embodiments of a fishing reel according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following description, when referring to “front and back” and “left and right”, the direction shown in FIG. 1 is used as a reference, and when saying “up and down”, the direction shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 is used as a reference. In the description, the same reference numerals are used for the same elements, and duplicate descriptions are omitted.

(First embodiment)
As shown in FIG. 1, the fishing reel according to the present embodiment has a reel body 1 having left and right side plates 1A and 1B. The left and right plates 1A and 1B are configured by covering left and right frames 2a and 2b with left and right covers 3a and 3b. A reel leg 1C, which is positioned between the left and right side plates 1A and 1B and is attached to a fishing rod (not shown), is integrally formed on the reel body 1. A spool shaft 5 is rotatably supported between the left and right frames 2a and 2b via a bearing, and a spool 5A around which the fishing line S is wound is integrally fixed to the spool shaft 5. Yes. Furthermore, between the left and right side plates 1A and 1B, a thumb rest 1D on which a finger can be placed is provided on the upper side with respect to the spool 5A.

  In the present embodiment, a handle 8 that rotationally drives the spool 5A is provided on the right side plate 1B side. A space is formed between the right frame 2b and the right cover 3b, and a known driving force transmission mechanism 10 that transmits the rotational driving force of the handle 8 to the spool shaft 5 is disposed in this space. A known clutch mechanism 20 that switches the spool shaft 5 between a power transmission state and a power cut-off state is disposed between the right frame 2b and the right cover 3b. The clutch mechanism 20 pushes down a clutch switching operation member (hereinafter referred to as an operation member) 21 disposed between the left and right side plates 1A and 1B on the rear side of the spool 5A, thereby causing the clutch ON state (in the power transmission state). The state is switched from the fishing line winding state) to the clutch OFF state (power cutoff state and fishing line release state). The return from the clutch OFF state to the clutch ON state can be performed by rotating the handle 8 by an automatic return mechanism 30 (see FIG. 2) described later.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, a switching mechanism 70 is disposed between the right frame 2b and the right cover 3b. When the fishing line S is pulled out against the drag force applied by a drag device 8b (see FIG. 1), which will be described later, in the fishing line winding state, the switching mechanism 70 is connected to the fishing line guide 60 (FIGS. 1 and 2). , FIG. 3) is rotationally driven to change the posture state. Details of the switching mechanism 70 will be described later.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a level wind device 50 is disposed between the left and right plates 1A and 1B on the fishing line feeding direction side (front side) of the spool 5A. This level winder 50 is provided with a fishing line guide 60 through which the fishing line S is inserted. The fishing line guide body 60 is configured to reciprocate left and right by rotating the handle 8, and has a function of winding the fishing line S evenly around the spool 5A as the fishing line S is wound up. Have.

The driving force transmission mechanism 10 includes a driving gear 11 as a rotating body that is frictionally coupled by a known drag device 8b to a handle shaft 8a to which the handle 8 is fixed and rotatably supported on the right side plate 1B. A pinion 12 that meshes with the gear 11 is provided. The driving gear 11 rotates in the X1 direction (clockwise) in FIG. 2 when the handle 8 is rotated during winding of the fishing line. Further, when the fishing line S is pulled out against the drag force applied by the drag device 8b, the drive gear 11 moves in the Y1 direction (counterclockwise direction) through the spool 5A, the spool shaft 5, and the pinion 12 in FIG. ) To rotate.
As is known, the handle shaft 8a is allowed to rotate in the direction of winding the fishing line by a one-way clutch K (a rolling one-way clutch using a wedge action, see FIG. 1) provided between the handle shaft 8b and the right cover 3b. And the reverse rotation prevention mechanism which prevents the reverse rotation accompanying fishing line feeding is comprised. The handle shaft 8a is rotatably supported via a bearing 8d (see FIG. 5) provided on the right frame 2b.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the pinion 12 is installed coaxially with the spool shaft 5 and is movable in the axial direction along the pinion shaft (which may be the spool shaft 5) 12a. Further, a circumferential groove 12b is formed on the outer periphery of the pinion 12, and a yoke 22 (see FIG. 2) of the clutch mechanism 20 to be described later is engaged with the circumferential groove 12b so that the pinion 12 is axially moved. It is configured to be moved. That is, when the pinion 12 moves in the axial direction, the pinion 12 is connected to and disconnected from the spool shaft 5 to be switched between a power transmission state (clutch ON) and a power cutoff state (clutch OFF).

  As shown in FIG. 2, the clutch mechanism 20 includes a clutch plate 25 that is rotatably supported with respect to the right frame 2b. The clutch plate 25 is distributed and held by the distribution spring 23 between a power transmission state (clutch ON state) shown in FIG. 2 and a power cut-off state (clutch OFF state) shown in FIG. The clutch plate 25 is connected to the operation member 21 through a connection hole 2d formed in the vertical direction on the right frame 2b, and projects into the right frame 2b through a long hole 25a formed in the clutch plate 25. The provided pin 2e is inserted, and the rotation drive is guided.

  A pair of cam surfaces 26 are formed on the surface of the clutch plate 25. The pair of cam surfaces 26 can engage with the yoke 22 engaged with the circumferential groove 12b (see FIG. 1) of the pinion 12. The front end side of the yoke 22 is held by a pair of support pins 27 protruding from the right frame 2b. The yoke 22 is always attached to the spool shaft 5 side by a spring member 27a disposed on the support pin 27. It is energized. FIG. 2 shows a state in which the yoke 22 is urged toward the spool shaft 5 by the spring member. At this time, the pinion 12 is engaged with the engaging portion 5a (see FIG. 1) and the clutch is in an ON state.

  The clutch plate 25 rotates in the counterclockwise direction when the operation member 21 is pushed down as indicated by the white arrow in FIG. Due to this rotation, the clutch plate 25 moves the pinion 12 (see FIG. 1) to the right side against the biasing force of the spring member 27 a via the cam surface 26 and the yoke 22, and moves to the end of the spool shaft 5. The clutch is disengaged from the formed engaging portion 5a (see FIG. 1) and switched to the clutch OFF state. This state is held by the sorting spring 23.

  Further, the clutch plate 25 is provided with an automatic return mechanism 30 that switches the clutch OFF state to the clutch ON state. As shown in FIG. 2, the automatic return mechanism 30 includes a kick member 31 that is swingably connected to the clutch plate 25, and a ratchet 32 that is fixed to the handle shaft 8a. When the kick member 31 is switched from the clutch-on state to the clutch-off state, the tip of the kick member 31 moves into the rotation track of the ratchet 32 as shown in FIG. For this reason, when the handle 8 is wound up in the clutch OFF state, the kick member 31 abuts on the ratchet 32 (kicked) and moves upward. By this movement, the clutch plate 25 automatically rotates clockwise, and is returned from the clutch OFF state to the clutch ON state. The clutch ON state is held by the spring force of the distribution spring 23. The clutch can also be returned by pushing up the operation member 21.

  Between the left and right side plates 1A and 1B on the front side of the spool 5A, the level wind device 50 is arranged as described above. Hereinafter, the configuration of the level winder 50 will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 7 to 10 together.

  The level wind device 50 includes a fishing line guide body 60 through which the fishing line S wound around the spool 5A is inserted. The fishing line guide body 60 is rotatably supported between the left and right side plates 1A and 1B via a bearing 52 (see FIG. 4), and is screwed as a drive shaft that is rotatably driven via the driving force transmission mechanism 10. The shaft (worm shaft) 51 is configured to be driven to reciprocate left and right. On the right frame 2b side of the screw shaft 51, an input gear 53 is provided adjacent to the drive gear 11 (see FIG. 1). The input gear 53 meshes with a connecting gear 8c (see FIG. 2) that rotates integrally with the handle shaft 8a. The screw shaft 51 is rotationally driven in synchronism with the rotational driving of the handle 8 via the connecting gear 8 c and the input gear 53.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, the screw shaft 51 is accommodated in a tubular body (tubular body) 55 that is rotatably held between the left and right side plates 1A and 1B. A long hole 55a (see FIGS. 7, 8A, and 8B) extending in the axial direction is formed on the outer surface of the tubular body 55. The long hole 55a partially exposes the spiral groove 51a formed on the surface of the screw shaft 51 along the axial direction.

As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8A, the fishing line guide body 60 is integrally provided with a fishing line insertion portion 60A and a holding portion 60B, and the holding portion 60B is provided so as to surround the tubular body 55. (See FIG. 7).
As shown in FIG. 7, the holding portion 60B holds a slider 61 therein. The slider 61 is engaged with the spiral groove 51a through the long hole 55a. The slider 61 is fixed to the holding portion 60B by a cap nut 62. Further, the fishing line guide body 60 is moved along the axial direction due to the engagement relationship between the spiral groove 51 a and the slider 61 by the rotation of the screw shaft 51, so as not to rotate around the tubular body 55. It is locked. In the present embodiment, the rotation preventing portion 55b extending in the axial direction is formed on the outer periphery of the tubular body 55, and the engagement portion 64 of the holding portion 60B is engaged with the rotation preventing portion 55b. With that, it is attached with detent. Specifically, the detents 55b are configured as protrusions (see FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 (b), provided as a pair at intervals of 180 °) on the outer periphery of the tubular body 55 in the axial direction. The engaging portion 64 is configured as a recess (see FIG. 7) that engages with such a protrusion.

  The fishing line guide 60 is driven to reciprocate left and right between the left and right side plates 1A and 1B via the slider 61 when the screw shaft 51 is driven to rotate, and in conjunction with the clutch ON / OFF of the clutch mechanism 20. Thus, it is configured to be switched between a fishing line winding state and a fishing line releasing state. In this case, the fishing line guide body 60 is rotationally driven by rotationally driving the tubular body 55.

Next, the power transmission path from the clutch mechanism 20 to the tubular body 55 will be specifically described.
As shown in FIG. 2, the clutch plate 25 is formed with a protruding piece 25 b that protrudes toward the front side of the reel body 1. An engaging protrusion 25c that protrudes toward the right frame 2b (left side) is integrally formed at the tip of the protruding piece 25b. On the other hand, in the right frame 2b, the rotating plate 7 is held at a portion where the screw shaft 51 is supported. The rotation plate 7 is fixed to the tubular body 55 (see FIG. 4) and prevented from rotating on the inner surface side of the right frame 2b. The rotating plate 7 is formed with a convex portion (not shown) protruding radially outward, and a concave portion (not shown) formed on the end portion (inner circumference) of the tubular body 55 is fitted to the convex portion. Thus, both are in a state of being fixed on the inner surface side of the right frame 2b (a state in which they can rotate together). The rotating plate 7 and the tubular body 55 may be integrally formed.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the rotating plate 7 is rotatably supported between an outer ring of a bearing 52 that rotatably supports the screw shaft 51 and the right frame 2b, and extends along the outer surface side of the right frame 2b. It extends rearward and overlaps with the protruding piece 25b of the clutch plate 25 in the left-right direction. As shown in FIG. 2, the rotary plate 7 is formed with an upper engagement hole 7A and a lower engagement hole 7B that are substantially L-shaped in side view. Among these, the upper engagement hole 7A is used for power transmission from the clutch mechanism 20, and the lower engagement hole 7B is used for power transmission from the switching unit 70A and constitutes a part of the switching mechanism 70. ing.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the upper engagement hole 7A has an upper first long hole 7a1 and an upper second long hole 7a2 continuous to the upper first long hole 7a1. The upper first long hole 7 a 1 is formed in a linear long hole shape extending in the radial direction of the screw shaft 51. The upper second long hole 7 a 2 is formed in an arc-shaped long hole concentric with the screw shaft 51.

  An engagement protrusion 25c of the clutch plate 25 is loosely inserted into the upper engagement hole 7A. Thereby, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the rotating plate 7 is rotated around the axis of the screw shaft 51 as the clutch plate 25 rotates. Therefore, the rotation plate 7 is switched at two positions by the distribution spring 23 together with the clutch plate 25 that is distributed and held between the fishing line winding state and the fishing line release state.

  On the other hand, the lower engagement hole 7B includes a lower first long hole 7b1 and a lower second long hole 7b2 continuous with the lower first long hole 7b1. The lower first long hole 7b1 is formed in a linear long hole shape extending at a predetermined angle with respect to the radial direction of the screw shaft 51, and the lower second long hole 7b2 is formed by a screw shaft. 51 is formed in an arc-shaped long hole shape concentric with 51.

  A protrusion 721 is loosely inserted into the lower engagement hole 7B. The protrusion 721 is provided on the friction device 72 of the switching mechanism 70. The rotation plate 7 is configured to be rotated with the rotation of the friction device 72 by loose insertion of the protrusion 721. That is, the rotation plate 7 is configured to be rotated by the operation of the switching mechanism 70 in addition to the rotation by the operation of the clutch plate 25 described above.

  A return spring 7c is attached between the front side portion of the rotating plate 7 and the right frame 2b. The return spring 7c urges the rotating plate 7 in the counterclockwise direction, and holds the rotating plate 7 in a state where the fishing line is wound up. The return spring 7 c constitutes a part of the switching mechanism 70.

  2, the engagement protrusion 25c of the clutch plate 25 causes the rear end portion of the upper first long hole 7a1 (the upper end of the upper second long hole 7a2) in the fishing line winding state shown in FIG. Part). Further, the protrusion 721 of the switching mechanism 70 is held by the rear end portion of the lower first long hole 7b1 (the rear end portion of the lower second long hole 7b2) of the lower engagement hole 7B.

On the other hand, in the fishing line release state shown in FIG. 3, the engagement protrusion 25c of the clutch plate 25 is held at the front end of the upper first long hole 7a1. Further, the protrusion 721 of the switching mechanism 70 is held at the front end of the lower second long hole 7b2.
The return spring 7c forms a part of the components of the switching mechanism 70 as will be described later. Details of the switching mechanism 70 will be described later.

  The fishing line guide body 60 is rotated in the front-rear direction in front of the spool 5 </ b> A when the tubular body 55 is rotationally driven via the rotational plate 7. Here, the configuration of the fishing line insertion portion 60A of the fishing line guide 60 will be specifically described with reference to FIGS.

  The fishing line insertion portion 60A is a portion through which the fishing line S from the spool 5A is inserted, and is configured as a frame body 60F made of a material having little fishing line resistance, such as SUS or titanium, and is integrally formed with the holding portion 60B. Specifically, a narrow guide portion 67 that is narrow (in the shape of a narrow groove) in the left-right direction, and a wide opening 68 that extends in the left-right direction so as to be substantially symmetric above the narrow guide portion 67. And. As shown in FIG. 10 (b), the wide opening 68 is a substantially oval that expands in the left-right direction when viewed from the front when viewed from the front (when viewed from the front along the inserted fishing line S). It is formed to have a shape. Both side walls of the wide opening portion 68 are inclined guide surfaces 68 a that are inclined toward a narrow guide portion 67 formed at a substantially lower portion of the wide opening portion 68 to guide the fishing line S.

  The frame body 60F having the wide opening 68 is inclined with respect to the front-rear direction (a shape that gradually rises toward the rear side) when viewed from the side when the fishing line is wound (see FIG. 7). The upper wall 68b defining the wide opening 68 is in a state along the front-rear direction in the fishing line discharge state (see FIG. 9), and is configured to ensure as wide an opening as possible. Therefore, when the rear end edge 69 of the upper wall 68b is rotated from the fishing line discharge state to the fishing line winding state, the positional relationship is such that it can come into contact with the fishing line S inserted into the wide opening 68 from above. And has a function as a restricting portion for restricting the fishing line S (hereinafter, the rear end edge is referred to as a restricting portion 69).

  The restricting portion 69 is a portion integrally formed as the frame body 60F. When the fishing line guide body 60 is rotated from the fishing line release state to the fishing line winding state in conjunction with the clutch mechanism 20, the front view is obtained. (As shown in FIG. 8 (b), when viewed from the front along the fishing line S), it is only necessary that the arrangement relationship is within the range of the vertical length L of the narrow guide portion 67. That is, if the arrangement relationship is such, when the fishing line guide body 60 rotates from the fishing line release state to the fishing line winding state, the fishing line S located at any part of the wide opening 68 is 69, and can be reliably guided to the narrow guide portion 67 along the inclined guide surface 68a. Moreover, if it is such a positional relationship, it can be ensured that the fishing line S is not detached from the narrow guide portion 67 in the state of winding the fishing line.

  The narrow guide portion 67 extends in the up and down direction, prevents the fishing line S that has entered it from blurring in the left and right direction, and stably winds the fishing line in parallel around the spool 5A (see FIG. 1). Has a function (function to improve the thread winding state).

  In addition, as shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B, both walls 67a defining the narrow guide portion 67 cover the upper portion of the cap nut 62 that fixes the slider 61 (see FIG. 7). Such a configuration can effectively prevent the fishing line S entering the narrow guide portion 67 from being entangled with the cap nut 62. Moreover, it is preferable that the bottom face 67c of the narrow guide part 67 becomes an inclined surface which inclines gradually downward toward the front in the fishing line winding state shown in FIG. That is, by using such a bottom surface shape, it is possible to reduce the frictional resistance with the fishing line S fed out in an inclined state from the spool.

  Next, the switching mechanism 70 will be described. As described above, the switching mechanism 70 moves the fishing line guide 60 (see FIG. 1) to the posture state when the fishing line S is pulled out against the drag force applied by the drag device 8b (see FIG. 1). It is rotationally driven to change. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the switching mechanism 70 includes a switching unit 70A, a lower engagement hole 7B, and a return spring 7c. The switching mechanism 70 is provided using a space between the screw shaft 51 (drive shaft) of the level winder 50 and the handle shaft 8a. The switching unit 70A includes a one-way device 71 and a friction device 72. The one-way device 71 and the friction device 72 are arranged in a state of being connected in the right side plate 1B. In the present embodiment, these are arranged concentrically on the handle shaft 8a.

  As shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B, the one-way device 71 includes a drive gear collar 711 and a one-way clutch 712 supported by the drive gear collar 711. When the fishing line S is pulled out in the winding state, the one-way device 71 rotates the drive gear 11 (see FIG. 6B) counterclockwise against the set drag force of the drag device 8b (see FIG. 1) ( When the drive gear collar 711 and the one-way clutch 712 are rotated in the direction of arrow Y1 in FIG. Further, the drive gear collar 711 can be freely rotated when the drive gear 11 is rotated clockwise (in the direction of arrow X1 in FIG. 6A) through the drag device 8b (see FIG. 1) by the winding operation by the handle 8. The power is cut off.

  As shown in FIG. 6B, the drive gear collar 711 includes a cylindrical portion 711a that is loosely fitted to the handle shaft 8a, a disc-shaped flange portion 711b provided at the right end of the cylindrical portion 711a, and a flange portion. And a plurality of fixing protrusions 711c provided on the right side surface of 711b. The drive gear 11 is provided with a plurality of recesses 11c into which the fixing protrusions 711c are fitted. The drive gear 11 is fixed to the drive gear collar 711 so as not to rotate.

  The one-way clutch 712 is a rolling type and includes an annular holding body 712a and a plurality of rolling members (rollers) 712b that are held inside the holding body 712a so as to be able to roll by the holding body 712a. As shown in FIG. 6A, the inclined surface 712c includes a free rotation area 712e in which each rolling member 712b can freely rotate, and a blocking surface 712d that prevents rotation of each rolling member 712b by a wedge action. Is formed. The one-way clutch 712 is press-fitted into the input member 72a of the friction device 72 and is fixedly prevented from rotating.

  In such a one-way device 71, when the handle 8 (see FIG. 1) is rotated (winding operation) and the drive gear 11 is rotated in the clockwise direction (X1 direction in FIGS. 2 and 6A). In this case, each rolling member 712b is positioned in the free rotation area 712e, and the drive gear collar 711 is in a freely rotatable state. That is, the rotational force (driving force) input by the rotating operation of the handle 8 (see FIG. 1) is not output to the friction device 72 side.

  Further, the fishing line S is pulled out against the drag force by the drag device 8b (because the handle shaft 8a is prevented from reverse rotation accompanying the fishing line unwinding by the one-way clutch K), and the drive gear 11 is rotated counterclockwise. When rotated in the Y1 direction in FIGS. 2 and 6A, each rolling member 712b is positioned on the blocking surface 712d, and the drive gear collar 711 and the holding body 712a (outer ring) are connected to rotate integrally. To do. As a result, the rotational force (pulling output) input through the drive gear 11 is output from the one-way device 71 to the friction device 72. Thus, the fishing line S is pulled out against the drag force, and only when the drive gear 11 rotates in the Y1 direction (counterclockwise direction) in FIGS. The friction device 72 is driven.

  The friction device 72 transmits the rotational force of the one-way device 71 to the rotation plate 7 at the subsequent stage, and is configured to idle when a load exceeding a predetermined torque is applied. As shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B, the friction device 72 includes an annular input member 72a that is externally fitted and fixed to the holding body 712a of the one-way clutch 712, and an annular input member 72a. An output member 72b, and includes a friction mechanism 72A (see FIG. 6A). The output member 72b is formed with an extending portion 72b1 extending toward the rotating plate 7 (see FIG. 2), and a protruding portion 721 is provided at the tip of the extending portion 72b1. The protruding portion 721 protrudes toward the right frame 2b (see FIG. 6B), and is loosely inserted into the lower engagement hole 7B of the rotating plate 7 as shown in FIG.

  The friction mechanism 72A includes a recess 722 provided in the output member 72b, a biasing spring 723 accommodated in the recess 722, an engagement member 724 biased by the biasing spring 723, and an outer peripheral surface of the input member 72a. And an engagement receiving portion 72a1 formed at intervals in the circumferential direction. The engagement member 724 is configured to engage with the engagement receiving portion 72a1 while being pressed by the engagement receiving portion 72a1.

  In such a friction mechanism 72A, when a load of a predetermined torque or more is applied, the engagement of the engagement member 724 with respect to the engagement receiving portion 72a1 is released, and the input member 72a and the output member 72b are relatively moved. It is configured to slip (slip). That is, when a torque greater than a predetermined value is applied between the input member 72a and the output member 72b, the two are in an idling relationship, and the idling of the input member 72a continues. Therefore, the rotation force (driving force) more than necessary is not applied to the rotation plate 7.

  When the friction device 72 receives the rotational force of the holding body 712a of the one-way device 71, the friction device 72 rotates in the Y1 direction (counterclockwise direction) in FIG. 12B, and moves the rear rotation plate 7 in the X2 direction ( It works to rotate in the clockwise direction. Thereby, the posture of the fishing line guide body 60 is switched from the fishing line winding state shown in FIG. 12A to the fishing line releasing state shown in FIG.

Next, the operation of the fishing reel having the above configuration will be described.
When the operation member 21 is pushed down in the clutch ON state shown in FIG. 11 (a), the clutch plate 25 is rotated counterclockwise and is shown in FIG. 11 (b) by the distribution spring 23 (see FIG. 3). The fishing line is released. At this time, as shown in FIG. 3, the cam surface 26 formed on the surface of the clutch plate 25 shifts the yoke 22 in the axial direction to disengage the pinion 12 from the spool shaft 5 (see FIG. 1) (clutch OFF state). ). Further, as the clutch plate 25 is rotated by this operation, the rotation plate 7 is rotated around the axis of the screw shaft 51. Accordingly, the fishing line guide body 60 is rotated from the fishing line winding state to the fishing line releasing state via the tubular body 55 (see FIG. 10A).

  The fishing line guide body 60 thus rotated is in a state in which the spool 5A can be freely rotated (fishing line discharging state), and the fishing line S that has entered the narrow guide part 67 is transferred to the regulating part 69 (FIG. 9). And the movement to the wide opening 68. Normally, when the fishing line is released, the amount of winding of the fishing line S around the spool 5A is large, so that the fishing line S can immediately move to the wide opening 68 when the restriction of the restricting part 69 is removed.

In this state, the fishing line S is released by performing a casting operation or the like. In this case, since the wide opening 68 of the fishing line guide body 60 is formed wide in the left-right direction, contact resistance is less likely to be received from the inner surface, and the flying distance of the device is reduced. Absent. That is, when the fishing line S is released, the release resistance from the fishing line guide body 60 can be reduced.
Since the pinion 12 is disengaged from the engaging portion 5a of the spool shaft 5 when the fishing line is released, power is not transmitted to the drive gear 11 meshing with the pinion 12, and the rotational force of the spool 5A is changed to the switching mechanism 70. Is not entered.

  Further, as the rotating plate 7 rotates, the protrusion 721 of the friction device 72 of the switching mechanism 70 is engaged with the rear end portion of the lower second long hole 7b2 of the lower engaging hole 7B ( From FIG. 11 (a), the state is engaged with the front end portion of the lower second long hole 7b2 (see FIG. 11 (b)). In this case, since the lower second long hole 7b2 is formed in a concentric arc shape with the screw shaft 51, the rotation of the rotation plate 7 is not hindered by the protrusion 721, and the rotation plate 7 can rotate smoothly. Moved.

  When the handle 8 is wound up to return the clutch mechanism 20 to the ON state, the clutch plate 25 is automatically returned to the position shown in FIGS. 2 and 12A by the automatic return mechanism 30. With the return of the clutch plate 25 to the ON state, the tubular body 55 is rotated via the rotation plate 7, and the fishing line guide body 60 is switched from the fishing line releasing state to the fishing line winding state. At this time, as shown in FIG. 11 (b), the fishing line S located in any part of the wide opening 68 is applied by the rotating restricting portion 69 (see FIG. 11 (a)). It is pressed and is reliably guided to the central narrow guide portion 67 along the inclined guide surface 68a of the wide opening 68 (see FIGS. 8A and 8B). Further, as shown in FIG. 7A, the fishing line S is not detached from the narrow guide portion 67 by the restricting portion 69 in the fishing line winding state.

Thereafter, when the handle 8 is wound up, the drive gear 11 is rotated in the X1 direction (clockwise direction) in FIG. 11A, and the spool 5A is rotated through the pinion 12 in the Y3 direction (counterclockwise direction, fishing line winding). Direction).
Further, when the handle 8 is wound up, the screw shaft 51 of the level winder 50 (see FIG. 1) is connected to a connecting gear 8c (see FIG. 2) provided on the handle shaft 8a and an input gear meshing with the connecting gear 8c. 53 (see FIG. 4). When the screw shaft 51 is driven to rotate, the fishing line guide body 60 is interposed via a slider 61 (see FIG. 7) that engages with a spiral groove 51a (see FIG. 7) formed on the outer peripheral surface of the screw shaft 51. Thus, it is reciprocated left and right along the tubular body 55. In this case, since the rotation preventing portion 55b (see FIG. 7) extending along the axial direction is formed on the outer periphery of the tubular body 55, the fishing line guide body 60 does not rotate around the axis. It is driven back and forth. As a result, the fishing line S is stably wound in parallel with the spool 5A by the narrow guide portion 67 narrowed in the left-right direction, and further, the narrow guide portion 67 depending on the position of the restricting portion 69. Therefore, a stable parallel winding state is always ensured.
In addition, when the winding amount of the fishing line S around the spool 5A is small, for example, when the fishing line S is released in a large amount, the fishing line S located in the narrow guide portion 67 may not be in contact with the regulating portion 69. .

  During the winding operation of the handle 8, the switching mechanism 70 causes the drive gear collar 711 of the one-way device 71 to move in the X1 direction (clockwise direction) of the drive gear 11 (see FIG. 2), as shown in FIG. In response to the rotational force, it idles in the X1 direction (clockwise direction). Therefore, the rotational force of the drive gear 11 is not transmitted to the friction device 72, and the fishing line guide body 60 is held in the state of winding the fishing line by the spring force of the return spring 7c. Thereby, the fishing line winding state through the narrow guide part 67 of the fishing line guide body 60 is suitably maintained.

Next, the operation when the fishing line S is pulled out in the clutch ON state will be described.
As shown in FIG. 12A, when the fishing line S is pulled out from the spool 5A against the drag force of the drag device 8b (see FIG. 1) in the clutch ON state, the rotational force (pulling output) is It is transmitted from the shaft 5 to the drive gear 11 via the pinion 12 (see FIG. 13A, the spool 5A rotates in the X3 direction, and the drive gear 11 rotates in the Y1 direction). The drive gear 11 is frictionally engaged by the drag device 8b with respect to the handle shaft 8a that is reversely stopped by the one-way clutch K (see FIG. 1), and as shown in FIG. Turn (drag slip) counterclockwise. Then, as shown in FIG. 6A, the drive gear collar 711 rotates in the Y1 direction (counterclockwise direction). At the time of rotation in the Y1 direction in the drawing, the one-way device 71 is in a state in which the drive gear collar 711 and the holding body 712a can rotate integrally by the one-way clutch 712, so It is transmitted from the device 71 to the friction device 72.

  As a result, the input member 72a of the friction device 72 rotates in the Y1 direction (counterclockwise direction) in FIG. 6A, and the output member 72b rotates counterclockwise via the friction mechanism 72A. By the rotation of the output member 72b, the rotation plate 7 is rotated in the X2 direction (clockwise direction) in FIG. 12B through the protrusion 721, and the fishing line guide body held in the state where the fishing line is wound up. 60 rotates clockwise about the screw shaft 51. Thereby, the attitude | position of the fishing line guide body 60 changes from a fishing line winding state to a fishing line discharge | release state (refer Fig.13 (a)).

By this posture change, the fishing line S inserted through the narrow guide portion 67 at the time of winding the fishing line is moved to the wide opening 68 as shown in FIGS. 13 (a), 10 (a) and 10 (b). The fishing line S is pulled out through the wide opening 68.
The upper engagement hole 7A of the rotating plate 7 is formed with an upper second long hole 7a2 concentric with the screw shaft 51, and the clutch plate 25 is formed at the upper end of the upper second long hole 7a2 when pulled out. Since the engagement protrusion 25c is engaged (see FIG. 12A), the rotation plate 7 is rotated until the engagement protrusion 25c is positioned at the lower end of the upper second long hole 7a2. (See FIG. 13A). Accordingly, the posture of the fishing line guide body 60 can be changed (moved) from the fishing line winding state to the fishing line release state (see FIG. 13A) without rotating the clutch plate 25 while the clutch is in the ON state.

  As described above, after the fishing line guide body 60 is changed to the fishing line released state (see FIG. 13A), the fishing line S is continuously pulled out and a load of a predetermined torque or more is applied to the friction device 72. The engaged state between the input member 72a and the output member 72b shown in (a) is released, and these are relatively idle (slip). As a result, the fishing line guide body 60 is held in the fishing line released state (see FIG. 13A), and a rotational force (driving force) more than necessary is not applied to the rotating plate 7.

  Thereafter, when the withdrawal of the fishing line S against the drag force is stopped, as shown in FIG. 13B, the rotating plate 7 is moved in the Y2 direction (counterclockwise direction) in the figure by the urging force of the return spring 7c. The fishing line guide body 60 is returned to the fishing line winding state from the fishing line releasing state by being rotated. In this case, after the pulling of the fishing line S against the drag force is stopped, the handle 8 is wound up, so that the fishing line guide body 60 is moved from the fishing line released state to the fishing line wound state by the action of the one-way clutch 712. It will return to. That is, when the handle 8 is wound up and the drive gear 11 is rotated in the direction of the arrow X1 in FIG. 13B, the drive gear collar 711 is idled in the X1 direction (clockwise direction), and the power is cut off. Is done. As a result, the rotating plate 7 is rotated in the Y2 direction (counterclockwise direction) in the drawing by the urging force of the return spring 7c, and the fishing line guide body 60 returns from the fishing line discharge state to the fishing line winding state.

  When the fishing line S is pulled out from the spool 5A against the drag force of the drag device 8b (see FIG. 2) during the winding of the fishing line, the fishing line guide body 60 is brought out of the fishing line winding state by the above action. Rotates to the fishing line release state. Thereafter, when the rotational force (pulling output) when the fishing line S is pulled out from the spool 5A becomes small with respect to the rotational force (winding rotational force) of the drive gear 11, the fishing line guide body 60 is released from the fishing line discharge state by the above action. Return to the state of winding the fishing line.

According to the fishing reel of the present embodiment described above, the fishing line S is evenly wound around the spool 5A through the narrow guide portion 67 of the fishing line guide 60 when the fishing line is wound up. Good parallel winding.
Further, when the fishing line is released, the fishing line S is fed out through the wide opening 68 of the fishing line guide 60, so that the fishing line S is discharged smoothly.
Further, when the fishing line S is pulled out against the drag force during winding of the fishing line, the fishing line S is pulled out through the wide opening 68 of the fishing line guide 60, so that the pulling resistance of the fishing line S is reduced. Therefore, compared to the case where the fishing line S is pulled out through the narrow guide portion 67, the fishing line S is less likely to be damaged, and the load acting on the level wind device 50 when the fishing line S is pulled out can be reduced.
In addition, since the pulling resistance of the fishing line S is reduced, it is difficult for the drag force to vary, and problems such as a drop in drag performance can be reliably prevented. Therefore, desired drag performance can be obtained, and the bite and sensitivity of the fishing line S and the fishing operability are improved.

  Moreover, since the switching mechanism 70 is provided using the space between the screw shaft 51 of the level wind device 50 and the handle shaft 8a, the switching mechanism 70 can be made compact. This contributes to the downsizing of the fishing reel.

  In addition, since the switching mechanism 70 includes the one-way device 71 and the friction device 72 that are arranged (concentrically arranged) in a state of being connected to one side plate (inside the right side plate 1B), the fishing line guide body 60 is provided. The drive mechanism for driving can be integrated. Therefore, the drive mechanism can be reduced in size and simplified. Further, the rotational force of the one-way device 71 can be efficiently transmitted to the friction device 72, and the rotation operation of the fishing line guide body 60 is also stabilized.

  Further, since the one-way device 71 and the friction device 72 are disposed on the handle shaft 8a, the drive mechanism can be integrated on the handle shaft 8a, and further miniaturization and simplification are possible. Further, since the drive mechanism is integrated on the handle shaft 8a, interference with other parts can be suitably avoided. Furthermore, the layout can be improved.

(Second Embodiment)
The fishing reel of the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. This embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the one-way device 71 of the switching unit 70B is simplified. The rotating plate 7 and other structures are the same as those in the first embodiment.

  As shown in FIGS. 14 and 15, the one-way clutch 712 includes a plurality of lips 712f extending in the circumferential direction. On the other hand, in the drive gear collar 711, a plurality of engaging recesses 711e are formed at intervals in the circumferential direction of the outer peripheral surface so as to correspond to the plurality of lips 712f. The engaging recess 711e is inclined in the extending direction of the lip 712f (inclined radially inward) and has a depth to accommodate at least the tip of the lip 712f. At the end of 711e, a step surface 711f is formed to which the tip of the lip 712f is locked.

  In such a one-way device 71, when the handle 8 (see FIG. 1) is rotated (winding operation) and the drive gear 11 is rotated in the clockwise direction (in the X1 direction in FIGS. 2 and 14A). In this case, the lip 12f is disengaged from the engaging recess 711e, and the drive gear collar 711 is in a freely rotatable state. That is, the rotational force (driving force) input by the rotating operation of the handle 8 (see FIG. 1) is not output to the friction device 72 side.

  Further, when the fishing line S is pulled out against the drag force by the drag device 8b (see FIG. 1) and the drive gear 11 rotates counterclockwise (Y1 direction in FIGS. 2 and 14A). Each lip 712f is locked to the stepped surface 711f, and the drive gear collar 711 and the one-way clutch 712 are connected to rotate integrally. As a result, the rotational force (pulling output) input through the drive gear 11 is output from the one-way device 71 to the friction device 72. Thus, the fishing line S is pulled out against the drag force, and only when the drive gear 11 rotates in the Y1 direction (counterclockwise direction) in FIGS. 2 and 14 (a) via the one-way device 71. The friction device 72 is driven.

Also in this embodiment, the same effect as the effect demonstrated in 1st Embodiment is obtained.
Further, since the structure of the one-way device 71 is simplified, the manufacturing cost can be reduced. Further, the switching unit 70A can be downsized.

As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, this invention is not limited to above-described embodiment, It can change variously.
For example, the entire switching mechanism 70 is not limited to the one provided between the screw shaft 51 and the handle shaft 8 a of the level wind device 50, and at least a part of the switching mechanism 70 is the level wind device 50. As long as it is provided between the screw shaft 51 and the handle shaft 8a.

  In each of the above embodiments, the drive gear 11 that is frictionally coupled to the handle shaft 8a is described as an example of the rotating body. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a drive that frictionally couples by providing a separate support shaft on the right frame 2b. The switching mechanism 70 may be provided using a gear as a rotating body.

  Further, the one-way device 71 and the friction device 72 may be those arranged on different axes.

  Further, the friction mechanism 72A of the friction device 72 may employ a mechanism using a viscous fluid.

  Further, the shape of the fishing line guide body 60 can be appropriately changed. For example, the wide opening 68 can be appropriately modified such as a substantially triangular shape or a substantially circular shape. Further, the restricting portion 69 does not have to be formed at the rear edge of the upper wall 68b of the flat frame body 60F as in the present embodiment, and the restricting portion 69 of the frame body 60F constituting the fishing line insertion portion 60A is not necessary. The shape can be appropriately modified, such as bending any part.

  Further, the fishing line guide body 60 may be attached to a portion that contacts the fishing line with a member (fishing line contact member) having wear resistance and low sliding resistance. By attaching such a fishing line contact member, even if the fishing line S comes into contact with the fishing line when it is released or taken up, it is possible to prevent the fishing line S from being broken and to further reduce the contact resistance. It becomes.

  In the above-described embodiment, the fishing line guide body 60 is configured to rotate in conjunction with the clutch mechanism 20, but it does not have to be interlocked with the clutch mechanism. Further, when the fishing line guide body 60 is rotated, a projection extending in the axial direction is provided on the outer periphery of the tubular body 55 to prevent the rotation, but the fishing line guide body 60 is rotated by the edge 55e of the long hole 55a formed in the tubular body 55. You may make it stop. Further, the thumb rest 1D provided between the left and right side plates 1A and 1B of the reel body 1 may be omitted or may be configured to be openable and closable in order to reduce resistance when the fishing line is released.

  Moreover, although the said embodiment demonstrated what changed the position of the fishing line S by the fishing line guide body 60 rotating and changing an attitude | position, it is not restricted to this, The fishing line guide body 60 is made into an up-down direction. The posture may be changed in the moving direction.
