Description

The present invention relates to a structure of a reel seat that detachably holds a fishing reel.

Except for so-called total rods, fishing rods are generally equipped with a reel seat for mounting a fishing reel. The reel seat also serves as a grip for the fisherman to grip the fishing rod. By grasping the reel sheet and operating the fishing rod, the fisherman casts the gimmick, mends the line, takes in the hit fish, and the like. In order for the angler to operate the fishing rod as desired, it is required that the reel seat that also serves as a grip can be held securely. Therefore, various improvements have been made to the reel sheet from the past (see, for example, Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2, and Non-Patent Document 1).

As illustrated in each of the above patent documents, the points of improvement of the conventional reel seat are to pursue ease of grip by devising the outer shape of the reel seat and to prevent slipping by devising the surface texture of the reel seat. That is. However, even with the conventional improvement, the ideal reel seat has not been completed yet, and further improvement is desired.

The present invention has been made under such a background, and an object of the present invention is to provide a reel seat that can be more easily gripped and more reliably held by an angler.

(1) The reel sheet according to the present invention has a tubular sheet body through which a blank is inserted in the axial direction, and a sheet surface on which a fishing reel is placed is formed at a predetermined portion on the peripheral surface of the sheet body. At the same time, a fixed hood is integrally raised and formed on one side of the seat surface in the axial direction so as to cover the end portion of the seat surface. This reel seat is a pair of first extending so as to continuously wrap around the pair of side edges of the seat surface along the axial direction so as to wrap around the predetermined portion of the peripheral surface of the seat body on the side opposite to the predetermined portion in the radial direction. It is continuous with a curved surface and a pair of side edges of a portion extending from the fixed hood of the seat body to one end in the axial direction, and wraps around the peripheral surface of the seat body on the side opposite to the predetermined portion in the radial direction. A pair of second curved surfaces extending from the fixed hood at the boundary with one curved surface so as to form a ridge line extending from the fixed hood in the opposite direction in the axial direction and radially opposite to the predetermined portion, and the first curved surface and the second curved surface. Each of the curved surfaces is provided with a plurality of ridges or dents arranged side by side so as to intersect sharply with respect to the other direction in the axial direction.

According to this configuration, the legs of the fishing reel are placed and fixed on a predetermined portion of the peripheral surface of the seat body (hereinafter, referred to as “seat front portion” in the present specification). In this state, the fisherman grips the seat body by hand. The ball of the thumb of the fisherman's hand comes into contact with the surface opposite to the front surface of the seat in the radial direction (hereinafter referred to as "the back surface of the seat" in the present specification). The index finger or middle finger of the fisherman wraps around the front surface of the seat from one side of the second curved surface and reaches the other side of the second curved surface. The middle finger or ring finger and little finger of the fisherman wrap around the front surface of the seat from one side of the first curved surface and reach the other side of the first curved surface. Since the ridgeline is formed at the boundary between the first curved surface and the second curved surface, both curved surfaces are discontinuous with the ridgeline as the boundary. Therefore, the first curved surface and the second curved surface match the arrangement of each finger (five fingers) of the angler, and the angler can bring each finger into contact with the first curved surface and the second curved surface without discomfort.

A plurality of ridges or dents are formed on both the first curved surface and the second curved surface . For example, in actual fishing, when a fisherman waits for a fishing reel in an open veil state, the seat body may be pinched by the thumb and index finger. In that case, the thumb and index finger are pressed against the second curved surface, and each finger is pressed. Will be in contact with the above convex or concave. Since the ridges or ridges extend so as to intersect the other direction in the axial direction at an acute angle, they exert an effective anti-slip effect on the fisherman's hand.

(2) The ridges or dents formed on the second curved surface are preferably arranged side by side along the ridgeline.

In this configuration, the middle finger, ring finger and little finger have a higher anti-slip effect. The reason why the high anti-slip effect is exhibited when the ridges or ridges are along the ridgeline is not clear, but the human hand is a part of the body and is extremely soft in terms of physical characteristics. Therefore, when the fisherman grips the seat body, the surface of the hand or finger bites into the ridge or concave. In that case, if the ridges or ridges extend along the ridgeline, it is considered that the ridges are less slippery.

(3) The width and pitch of the ridges or dents are preferably 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm and 0.5 mm to 5.0 mm, respectively.

If the size is such that the ridges or dents are applied, when the fisherman grips the seat body, the surface of the hand or finger surely bites into the ridges or dents.

(4) Of the peripheral surface of the sheet body, the surface opposite to the predetermined portion in the radial direction is preferably a curved surface that bulges outward in the radial direction.

In this configuration, since the back surface of the seat is raised, the ball of the thumb of the fisherman's hand is more reliably in contact with the back surface of the seat and is stably supported. In other words, the seat body is easier for anglers to grip.

(5) It is preferable that a groove extending curvedly from one end in the axial direction to the other end is formed at the boundary between the curved surface bulging outward in the radial direction and the second curved surface.

In this configuration, when the fisherman grips the seat body, the so-called palm bites into the groove, and a higher anti-slip effect is exhibited.

(6) The sheet body is preferably coated with urethane paint.

In this configuration, the grip comfort is improved for the fisherman while maintaining the anti-slip effect.

According to the present invention, the pair of the first curved surface and the second curved surface are arranged symmetrically with respect to the back surface portion of the seat, so that the fisherman can easily and surely grip the seat body without any discomfort. Moreover, since the ridges or dents formed on the first curved surface or the second curved surface exert an effective anti-slip effect, the fisherman does not easily slip the hand holding the fishing rod in actual fishing.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings as appropriate. Needless to say, the present embodiment is only one aspect of the reel sheet according to the present invention, and the embodiments may be changed without changing the gist of the present invention.

1. 1. Overview and points

FIG. 1 is an external perspective view of a reel seat 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The figure shows a state in which the reel seat 10 is attached to the blank 11 constituting the fishing rod.

The reel sheet 10 is attached to the blank 11 and fixes the legs of the fishing reel. The reel seat 10 has a seat body 12 and a fixing ring 13, and is a so-called screw seat type. The fixing ring 13 has a tightening nut 16 and a movable hood 15. The tightening nut 16 is screwed into the seat body 12, and slides in the axial direction 20 (direction along the central axis 21 of the blank 11) by being rotated. The movable hood 15 and the tightening nut 16 are arranged side by side along the axial direction 20. The movable hood 15 is rotatably provided with respect to the tightening nut 16 about the axial direction 20, and is engaged with the seat body 12 via a detent structure (not shown). Therefore, when the tightening nut 16 is rotated, the movable hood 15 slides in the axial direction 20 while being restricted from rotating together with the tightening nut 16.

A fixed hood 14 is provided on the seat body 12, and is arranged to face the movable hood 15. When the tightening nut 16 is operated, the movable hood 15 slides in the axial direction 20 and comes into contact with and separates from the fixed hood 14. The legs of the fishing reel are sandwiched by the fixed hood 14 and the movable hood 15 in a state of being in contact with the seat surface 17.

The fisherman grips the reel sheet 10 on which the fishing reel is mounted and operates the fishing rod in actual fishing. At this time, the fisherman's finger is brought into contact with the seat body 12 so as to wrap around the peripheral surface. A feature of the reel sheet 10 according to the present embodiment is that, as shown in the figure, a large number of ridges 32 are arranged side by side on the first curved surface 18 and the second curved surface 19 of the sheet body 12. .. By providing the ridge 32, the fisherman's hand fits comfortably on the reel sheet 10 and exhibits a high anti-slip effect in various scenes in actual fishing.

2. 2. Seat body

2 and 3 are enlarged perspective views of the seat body 12. FIG. 3 shows a state in which the seat body 12 is rotated by 180 ° (degree) about the central axis 21 in FIG. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a side surface (a), a back surface (b), a side surface (c), and a front surface (d) of the seat body 12.

The sheet body 12 has a cylindrical shape as a whole, and a circular hole 22 is formed through the center. That is, the shape of the outer peripheral surface of the sheet body 12 is complicated as described later, but the shape of the inner peripheral surface 23 is a circle corresponding to the outer diameter of the blank 11. The seat body 12 has a gripping cylinder 24 and a screwing cylinder 25, which are integrally formed of a resin (polyamide (PA: nylon) or a resin reinforced with carbon fiber). In this embodiment, the surface of the sheet body 12 is coated with urethane. The paint used for painting may be a so-called urethane-based paint. The grip cylinder 24 is arranged on the front side 43 of the blank 11 (corresponding to the "one side in the axial direction" described in the claims), and the screw cylinder 25 is arranged on the rear side.

The seat front portion 26 (corresponding to the "predetermined portion of the peripheral surface of the seat body" described in the claims) is arranged on the peripheral surface of the gripping cylinder 24. The seat front portion 26 is located on the upper side in FIG. The seat surface 17 is formed on the front surface portion 26 of the seat. The seat surface 17 is a flat surface on which the legs of the fishing reel are stably placed. As shown in FIG. 3, the seat back portion 27 is located on the opposite side of the seat front portion 26 (corresponding to the "diametrically opposite side of the peripheral surface of the seat body to the predetermined portion" described in the claims). It is provided. The seat back surface portion 27 has a curved surface that bulges outward in the radial direction (upward in the figure) of the seat body 12. Therefore, the cross-sectional shape of the gripping cylinder 24 exhibits a so-called oval shape.

As shown in FIG. 2, the fixed hood 14 is provided on the front side 43 of the seat front portion 26 (corresponding to the “one side in the axial direction” described in the claims). The fixed hood 14 is integrally formed with the seat front portion 26, and is raised upward in the figure. The fixed hood 14 is formed in a bag shape that covers the end portion (front end portion) of the seat front portion 26, and accommodates and holds one side of the leg of the fishing reel.

The first curved surface 18 is continuous with the sheet surface 17. Specifically, it is continuously formed on the side edges 28 and 29 of the sheet surface 17 (corresponding to "a pair of side edges along the axial direction of the sheet surface" described in the claims). Each of the first curved surfaces 18 extends from the side edges 28 and 29 to the seat back surface portion 27 side, and is arranged symmetrically in the radial direction with respect to the central axis 21. As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4D, the first curved surface 18 is narrowed down from the seat back surface portion 27 toward the seat front surface portion 26 (so that the radial dimension of the seat body 12 is gradually reduced). It is formed.

The second curved surface 19 is continuous with the front side portion 30 of the seat body 12 (corresponding to the "portion extending from the fixed hood to one end in the axial direction" described in the claims). As shown in FIG. 2, this front side portion 30 is a region extending from the fixed hood 14 to the front end 31 of the seat body 12, and is smoothly directed from the top of the raised fixed hood 14 toward the front end 31. It is inclined and curved so as to draw a gentle arc in the circumferential direction.

A pair of second curved surfaces 19 are continuous with a pair of side edges 37 (virtual side edges in this embodiment) of the front side portion 30. Each second curved surface 19 is developed toward the seat back surface portion 27 side. Similar to the first curved surface 18, the pair of second curved surfaces 19 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the central axis 21 in the radial direction. As shown in FIGS. 4 (c) and 4 (b), the second curved surface 19 is curved so as to draw a radially convex arc from the seat back surface portion 27 toward the seat front surface portion 26.

The first curved surface 18 is formed so as to be narrowed down from the seat back surface portion 27 toward the seat front surface portion 26 as described above, whereas the second curved surface 19 is formed from the seat back surface portion 27 to the seat front surface. Since the curved surface is curved so as to draw an arc that is convex in the radial direction toward the portion 26, a ridge line 31 is formed at a portion where the curved surfaces 18 and 19 meet, and the first curved surface 18 is bordered by the ridge line 31. , It is in a bent state (discontinuous) with respect to the second curved surface 19. The ridge line 31 extends from the fixed hood 14 in the rearward direction of the axial direction 20 (direction opposite to the direction indicated by the arrow 43: corresponding to the "axially opposite direction" described in the claims) and wraps around the seat back surface portion 27. It extends like this.

Convex 32 is formed on the first curved surface 18 and the second curved surface 19. The first curved surface 18 is provided with 15 ridges 32, and the second curved surface 19 is provided with 16 ridges 32. The ridges 32 are regularly aligned and extend along the ridge 31 in parallel with each other and at an angle with respect to the central axis 21. Specifically, the width dimension of the ridges 32 provided on the first curved surface 18 is set to 0.3 mm, and the spacing (pitch) is set to about 1.0 mm. The length dimension of each ridge 32 is set to 10 mm to 50 mm, and the angle formed by the longitudinal direction of each ridge 32 and the central axis 21 is set to 5 ° (degree) to 25 °. The ridge 32 provided on the first curved surface 18 extends backward in the axial direction 20 from the side edges 28 and 29 and intersects the central axis 21 at an acute angle. Similarly, the ridge 32 provided on the second curved surface 19 also extends backward in the axial direction 20 and intersects the central axis 21 at an acute angle. The width dimension of each ridge 32 is not limited to the above dimension, but is set in the range of 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm, and the pitch is set in the range of 0.5 mm to 5.0 mm.

The outer shape of the ridge 32 is formed so that the cross-sectional shape thereof is trapezoidal in the present embodiment. However, the cross-sectional shape of the ridge 32 is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, a triangle or other polygon. The action and effect of providing the ridge 32 will be described later. Further, in the present embodiment, the ridges 32 are formed on the first curved surface 18 and the second curved surface 19, but the ridges 32 may be provided instead of the ridges 32.

As shown in FIG. 3, a pair of grooves 41 are formed at the boundary between the curved surface constituting the seat back surface portion 27 and the second curved surface 19. The grooves 41 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the central axis 21. The groove 41 extends curvedly from the front end to the rear end of the gripping cylinder 24. The width dimension of the groove 41 is set to 2.0 mm to 4.0 mm, and the depth dimension is set to about 1.0 mm.

The screw cylinder 25 has a cylindrical shape and is continuously provided on the rear end side of the grip cylinder 24. The screw cylinder 25 includes a cylindrical portion 33 and a connecting portion 34, and the connecting portion 34 is continuous with the cylindrical portion 33 and the rear end of the gripping cylinder 24. As shown in FIG. 3, the connecting portion 34 has a portion 35 projecting from the grip cylinder 24 in a substantially trapezoidal shape so that the movable hood 15 can be securely fitted to the grip cylinder 24 by the portion 35. (See Fig. 1).

A male screw 36 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion 33. The tightening nut 16 (see FIG. 1) is screwed with the male screw 36. The threads of the male screw 36 are missing at three points in the circumferential direction of the cylindrical portion 33. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, the upper portion of the cylindrical portion 33 (the portion adjacent to the seat surface 17 in the axial direction 20 backward) and the side portion (the portion facing backward in the axial direction 20 from the first curved surface 18). The screw thread is missing in the part adjacent to). As a result, grooves 38, 39, and 40 are formed in the portion. In the present embodiment, the grooves 38 to 40 are provided at three places of the cylindrical portion 33, but the grooves 38 to 40 may be provided at the three or more places, or only the grooves 39 and 40 may be provided.

Each groove 38 to 40 extends along the axial direction 20 of the cylindrical portion 33. The width dimension W1 of the groove 38 is set to 5.0 mm, and the width dimension W2 of the grooves 39 and 40 is set to 7.0 mm (see FIG. 4). The width dimensions W1 and W2 of the grooves 38 to 40 are not limited to the above dimensions, the width dimension W1 of the groove 38 is 3.0 mm to 6.0 mm, and the width dimension W2 of the grooves 39 and 40 is 5.0 mm. It can be set to ~ 10.0 mm. The grooves 38 to 40 are formed by removing the threads of the male screw 36 as described above, so that the bottom surface of the grooves 38 to 40 has an arc shape. Therefore, the wall thickness of the cylindrical portion 33 is constant in the circumferential direction. In the present embodiment, the width dimensions of the grooves 39 and 40 are the same (W2), but the width dimensions of the grooves 39 and 40 may be different.

3. 3. Fixing nut

FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the fixing nut 16.

As described above, the fixing ring 13 has a movable hood 15 and a tightening nut 16. Both are connected along the axial direction of the central axis 21 at the connecting portion 42. The movable hood 15 is rotatable about the central shaft 21 with respect to the tightening nut 16. The connection structure between the two is known. For example, a protrusion (a claw or the like protruding in the radial direction) provided on the movable hood 15 is engaged in a slide groove formed so as to orbit the inner peripheral surface of the tightening nut 16. A matching structure can be adopted. The tightening nut 16 may be made of an aluminum alloy or other metal. Although not shown, a female screw is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the tightening nut 16, and this female screw is screwed with the male screw 36 (see FIG. 2) of the seat body 12.

The movable hood 15 is made of resin or metal. The movable hood 15 is preferably made of the same material as the resin constituting the seat body 12. The movable hood 15 is also coated with urethane in the same manner as the seat body 12. A housing portion 50 is formed at the front end of the movable hood 15. The legs of the fishing reel are accommodated and held in the accommodating portion 50.

FIG. 6 is an enlarged perspective view of the movable hood 15. 7 is an arrow view A and a view B in FIG. 6, which are represented by (a) and (b), respectively. FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line VIII-VIII in FIG.

The movable hood 15 has a cylindrical shape as a whole, and an oval-shaped opening 44 is formed on the front side 43 (FIGS. 6 and 7 (a)), and a circular opening 45 is formed on the rear side (FIG. 6 (a)). b)). The outer diameter of the rear end of the movable hood 15 (the outer diameter of the end where the opening 45 is formed) corresponds to the outer diameter of the tightening nut 16 (see FIG. 5). Therefore, there is no step in the connecting portion 42, and the fixing hood 15 and the tightening nut 16 are connected so as to be smoothly continuous along the axial direction 20.

On the other hand, the outer shape of the opening 44 of the movable hood 15 corresponds to the outer shape of the rear end 46 (see FIG. 3) of the gripping cylinder 24 of the seat body 12. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the outer shape of the rear end side portion of the movable hood 15 has a cylindrical shape, and is orthogonal to the vertical direction 47 (the seat front portion 26 and the seat back portion 27) toward the front side 43. Direction: The dimensions in the vertical direction in FIGS. 2 and 3) are gradually expanding. Further, the dimensions in the lateral direction 48 (direction orthogonal to the pair of first curved surfaces 18: see FIGS. 2 and 3) are gradually reduced from the rear end side portion of the movable hood 15 toward the front side 43.

That is, the outer shape of the movable hood 15 is expanded from the rear end side portion toward the front side 43 in the vertical direction 47 and reduced so as to be narrowed down in the horizontal direction 48. As described above, the movable hood 15 expands in the vertical direction 47, so that when the fisherman grips the reel seat 10, the back surface portion 27 of the seat and the lower surface 49 of the movable hood 15 in the vertical direction 47 become the thumb ball and the palm. While abutting in a familiar manner, the finger wraps around the first curved surface 18 so as to fit (see FIG. 1). Further, the upper surface 51 of the movable hood 15 in the vertical direction 47 bulges upward. As a result, the accommodating portion 50 is formed.

As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, thickened portions 52 to 54 are provided at three locations on the inner wall surface 55 of the movable hood 15. These thick portions 52 to 54 are formed so that the inner wall surface 55 rises inward. The wall thickness portion 52 and the wall thickness portions 53 and 54 are provided on the upper side in the vertical direction 47 and on the left and right sides in the horizontal direction 48, respectively, in the figure. That is, the wall thickness portion 52 coincides with the position of the groove 38 of the screw cylinder 25, and the wall thickness portions 53 and 54 coincide with the positions of the grooves 40 and 39 of the screw cylinder 25, respectively. See Figure 2).

The wall thickness portion 52 has a pair of corner portions as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, and the span of the corner portions corresponds to the width dimension W1 of the groove 38. Therefore, the corner portion of the thick portion 52 abuts on the corner portion 56 (see FIG. 2) of the groove 38. The wall thickness portion 53 exhibits a rectangle extending in the axial direction 20 as shown in FIG. The length dimension L1 in the circumferential direction of the wall thickness portion 53 corresponds to the width dimension W2 (see FIG. 4) of the groove 40 of the screw cylinder 25. The inner surface 57 of the thick portion 53 is an arcuate curved surface. The radius of curvature of the inner surface 57 corresponds to the radius of curvature of the bottom surface of the groove 40 of the screw cylinder 25 (see FIG. 2). Therefore, the bottom surface of the groove 40 and the inner surface 57 of the thick portion 53 come into surface contact with each other. The thick portion 54 has the same shape as the thick portion 53. Therefore, the length dimension L1 in the circumferential direction of the wall thickness portion 54 corresponds to the width dimension W2 (see FIG. 4) of the groove 39 of the screw cylinder 25, and the bottom surface of the groove 39 and the inner surface of the wall thickness portion 54. 58 is in surface contact.

As described above, when the width dimensions of the grooves 39 and 40 are different, the length dimension L1 is also changed accordingly. Further, the inner surfaces 57 and 58 may not be curved in an arc shape and may not be in surface contact with the bottom surfaces of the grooves 40 and 39. Further, the span of the corner portion of the length dimension L1 and the wall thickness portion 52 is designed so that the total of these is 1/4 of the inner peripheral length of the rear end portion of the movable hood 15.

As shown in FIGS. 6 and 8, in the present embodiment, the corner portions 59 of the thick portions 53 and 54 are chamfered. This chamfering is typically a C-chamfering. However, this chamfering process may be omitted.

4. Action effect

According to the present embodiment, when the fisherman grips the reel seat 10 in actual fishing, the ball of the thumb of the fisherman's hand comes into contact with the back surface portion 27 of the seat, and the index finger or the middle finger wraps around the pair of second curved surfaces 19. And the middle finger or ring finger and little finger are arranged so as to wrap around the pair of first curved surfaces 18. A ridge line 31 is formed at the boundary between the first curved surface 18 and the second curved surface 19, and both adjacent curved surfaces 18 and 19 are discontinuous with the ridge line 31 as a boundary. Therefore, each finger of the fisherman is familiar with the first curved surface 18 and the second curved surface 19, and the fisherman can grasp the seat body 12 without discomfort. Therefore, when the fish hits and the fisherman operates the fishing rod, the anti-slip effect of each finger is exhibited. In the present embodiment, the ridges 32 are formed on both the first curved surface 18 and the second curved surface 19, but the ridges 32 are formed on only one of the first curved surface 18 and the second curved surface 19. It may have been done.

For example, in actual fishing, when the fisherman waits for the fishing reel in the open veil state, the seat body 12 may be pinched by the thumb and the index finger, but in that case, the thumb and the index finger are pressed against the second curved surface 19. Each finger touches the ridge 32. Since the ridge 32 extends so as to intersect the rearward direction in the axial direction at an acute angle, it exerts an effective anti-slip effect on the fisherman's hand. In the present embodiment, since the ridges formed on the second curved surface 19 are arranged side by side along the ridge line 31, the higher anti-slip effect of the middle finger, ring finger and little finger is exhibited.

In the present embodiment, the width of the ridge 32 is 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm and the pitch is 0.5 mm to 3.0 mm. Therefore, when the fisherman grips the seat body 12, the hand or finger The surface surely bites into the ridges, and a higher anti-slip effect is exhibited.

In the present embodiment, since the seat back surface portion 27 bulges outward, the ball of the thumb of the fisherman's hand more reliably abuts on the seat back surface portion 27 and is stably supported. That is, the seat body 12 is easier to grip for the fisherman.

In the present embodiment, since the groove 41 is formed at the boundary between the seat back surface portion 27 and the second curved surface 19, when the fisherman grips the seat body 12, the so-called palm bites into the groove 41. As a result, an even higher anti-slip effect is exhibited.

In the present embodiment, since the urethane paint is applied to the seat body 12, the gripping comfort is improved for the fisherman.

Further, according to the present embodiment, the legs of the fishing reel are placed on the seat surface 17 and sandwiched by the fixed hood 14 and the fixed ring 13. Since the thick portions 52, 53, 54 of the movable hood 15 are fitted into the grooves 38, 39, 40 provided in the seat body 12, when the fixing ring 13 is operated (that is, the tightening nut 16 rotates). If this is the case), the movable hood 15 is prevented from rotating with the rotation of the tightening nut 16. That is, the thick portions 52, 53, 54 and the grooves 38, 39, 40 form the above-mentioned detent structure.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, since the grooves 38, 39, and 40 are obtained by removing a part of the thread of the male screw 36, the seat body 12 is used to prevent the movable hood 15 from rotating. The outer diameter does not expand. That is, for example, when a key groove is formed in the seat body 12 to prevent rotation of the movable hood 15, an extra wall thickness of the cylindrical portion 33 must be secured in order to form the key groove, and the seat body must be secured. The outer diameter of 12 also becomes large, but such a problem does not occur in this embodiment.

By suppressing the diameter expansion of the seat body 12, the external dimensions of the movable hood 15 in the lateral direction 48 can also be suppressed. Further, since the thick portions 53 and 54 are arranged in the lateral direction 48, the outer diameter of the seat body 12 and the lateral external dimensions of the movable hood 15 are suppressed, and the thickness of the movable hood 15 in the lateral direction 48 is suppressed. The thickness dimension becomes large. In this way, since the dimension of the movable hood 15 in the lateral direction 48 is suppressed, the reel seat 10 that is easy for the fisherman to grip is designed. Moreover, since the wall thickness of the movable hood 15 in the lateral direction 48 becomes large, the rigidity of the movable hood 15 is ensured, and the legs of the fishing reel are securely held.

In the present embodiment, the length in the circumferential direction of the wall thickness portions 52, 53, 54, that is, the total length of the length dimension L1 of the wall thickness portions 53, 54 and the span of the corner portion of the wall thickness portion 52 is determined. It is 1/4 of the inner peripheral length of the rear end portion of the movable hood 15, and the design can be changed as appropriate. Therefore, the necessary and sufficient rigidity of the movable hood 15 is ensured.

In the present embodiment, since the inner surfaces 57 and 58 of the thick portions 53 and 54 are in surface contact with the bottom surfaces of the grooves 40 and 39, there is no rattling between the seat body 12 and the movable hood 15. The rigidity of the reel seat 10 is improved, and smooth sliding of the movable hood 15 is realized.

In the present embodiment, the corners of the thick portions 53 and 54 are chamfered, so that even if a fish hits in actual fishing and a bending moment acts on the reel sheet 10, the movable hood 15 can be used. Smooth sliding is possible without sticking to the seat body 12.
