Description

The present invention relates to a hook removing device.

Conventionally, as a hook removing device for removing a hook, which is a fishhook, from a fish that has been caught, there is a pliers-like device that pinches and removes the fishhook. As such a device, Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2004-329041 discloses fishing hook removing pliers.

This fishing hook removing pliers connects the first member and the second member so as to be rotatable around their respective arbitrary points, and the first member and the second member are connected to the point. By forming a pair of handle portions on one side and a pair of holding portions on the other side around the center, by closing the pair of handle portions, the opposing faces of the holding portions are separated from each other. A first posture in close contact and a second posture in which the opposing surfaces are not in close contact by opening the pair of handle portions can be taken, and a fishhook is sandwiched between the opposing surfaces. At least one of the pair of opposing surfaces has a contact surface that contacts the other of the opposing surfaces on the tip side thereof, and the contact surface and the one point By forming a cutout surface that does not come into close contact with the other between the It is characterized by

However, the above-mentioned fishing hook removing pliers, which are also called pliers, are used for gripping and fixing members, and are nothing more than pliers used for machine work, etc., which have been diverted for fishing hook removing purposes. In addition, even if the hook cannot be seen from outside the fish's mouth, the hook removing pliers can be used to reach the position where the hook is caught along the fishing line. In this case, the hook is removed from the fish by holding and removing the hook with the above-mentioned hook removing pliers after the action of grasping and fixing the fish that has been caught.

Therefore, when a fish is hooked, the fish is picked up, the line is pulled in, and the hook is removed from the fish while the tail portion of the hook is pinched with the above-mentioned hook removing pliers. Therefore, the action of catching fish cannot be ruled out.

On the other hand, in recent years, along with calls for fish protection, there is also a trend for so-called sport fishing, and catch-and-release is recommended. Catch and release refers to re-releasing the caught fish to protect the fish population.

In this case, instead of simply re-releasing the caught fish, it is required to re-release the fish while avoiding contact with the fish as much as possible. It is said that the reason for this is that direct contact with the surface of the fish body reduces the survival rate of the fish after re-release. In this case, it is recommended to use barbless hooks, but there are cases where the use of barbless hooks is hesitant because there is an increased possibility that the caught fish will be lost.

Also, the first clamping portion 22 and the second clamping portion 32 are each bent in a doglegged shape. That is, the first clamping portion 22 and the second clamping portion 32 are configured to warp downward in a side view (see FIG. 2). Hereinafter, the term "front" means the direction of the first holding portion 22, and the term "rear" means the direction of the first gripping portion 21. As shown in FIG.

Further, the hook removing device 10 of this embodiment has a removing portion 40 for pressing the periphery SA of the stuck portion of the hook H, and a support portion 50 for supporting the removing portion 40 . The removing portion 40 includes a pair of pressing members 41, 41 at the tip, a connecting portion 42 having a shaft shape connecting the pair of pressing members 41, 41 to each other, and a rod-shaped connecting portion 42 connected to the connecting portion 42. and an operating portion 44 connected to the rear end of the shaft portion 43 .

Since the pair of pressing members 41, 41 are mirror symmetrical, one pressing member 41 will be described. The pressing member 41 has a magatama shape when viewed from the side, and a pressing portion distal end portion 41a having a generally arcuate shape when viewed from the side and a shape similar to a crescent-shaped distal end portion at the distal end thereof. and a pressing portion rear end portion 41b having a shape of .

The connecting portion 42 literally connects the pair of pressing members 41, 41 and has a shaft shape. The connecting portion 42 is fixed to the pair of pressing members 41, 41 so that the front end portion 41a of the pressing portion is positioned forward and the rear end portion 41b of the pressing portion is positioned rearward. Further, the shaft portion 43 is connected to the connecting portion 42 and is elongated in the longitudinal direction and has a rod shape. Further, as described above, the operating portion 44 having a circular shape in plan view connected to the rear end portion of the shaft portion 43 is provided, and a user (not shown) slides the operating portion 44 forward. or press downward. This will be described later. Further, the tip portion 43a of the shaft portion 43 has a curved shape, presents an arcuate shape when viewed from the side, and is in a so-called offset state. It is easy to grasp H.

The support portion 50 includes a first support 51a arranged in the first pinching portion 22 of the first plier portion 20 described above, and a second support 51b arranged in the second pinching portion 32 of the second plier portion 30 described above. have The first support 51a has a trapezoidal shape with rounded corners in a side view, and a hole 511 is arranged near the top of the first support 51a. The second support 51b has a trapezoidal shape with rounded corners when viewed from the side, and a hole portion 512 is arranged near the upper portion of the second support 51b.

In addition, the support portion 50 has a hollow cylindrical cylindrical portion 53, in which the shaft portion 43 of the removing portion 40 is arranged so as to be movable in the front-rear direction and rockable like a seesaw. It is That is, the tubular portion 53 is connected to shaft members 53b, 53b on both sides of the central portion 53a thereof, and the shaft members 53b, 53b are rotatably arranged in the hole portions 511 and 512, respectively. In this manner, the cylindrical portion 53 is swingably supported with respect to the first support 51a and the second support 51b. Therefore, the shaft portion 43 arranged inside can also be swung to rotate in the same manner, and can also move in the front-rear direction. Therefore, the removal section 40 can be moved via the support section 50 as will be described later. That is, as described above, the operating portion 44 can be slid forward or pushed downward.

In addition, flanges 55, 55 having a flange shape are fixed to the tips of the shaft members 53b, 53b to prevent the shaft members 53b, 53b from slipping out of the holes 511 and 512, respectively. In addition, the lengths of the shaft members 53b and 53b are configured so that the first pinching portion 22 of the first pliers portion 20 and the second pinching portion 32 of the second pliers portion 30 can open to the extent that the hook H can be pinched therebetween. It is Further, when the above-described flange portions 55, 55 having a flange shape are opened, the first holding portion 22 and the second holding portion 32 are brought into contact with the first support 51a and the second support 51b, respectively. Then, the opening angle between the first clamping portion 22 and the second clamping portion 32 is regulated.

Next, a method of using the hook removing device 10 of this embodiment will be described. With the fish S hooked on the hook H, for example, the tail H1 of the hook H swallowed into the mouth of the fish S is sandwiched between the first gripping portion 22 and the second gripping portion 32 (see FIG. 7). At this time, the first clamping portion 22 and the second clamping portion 32 are each bent in a doglegged shape. That is, since the first clamping portion 22 and the second clamping portion 32 are configured to warp downward in a side view (see FIG. 2), the stuck hook H can be visually recognized even in the mouth of the fish S. It is easy to do.

The removing part 40 is pushed forward along the shaft portion H2 of the hook H. That is, the connecting portion 42 of the removing portion 40 is pushed out along the shaft portion H2 of the hook H. As shown in FIG. At this time, since the shaft portion 43 is arranged so as to be able to swing and move with respect to the support portion 50, the removal portion 40 can move along the curve H3 of the hook H ( See Figure 8). Specifically, since the shaft portion 43 is movably and swingably arranged inside the cylindrical portion 53 of the support portion 50 , the connection portion 42 of the removed portion 40 is connected to the shaft of the hook H. When pushed along the portion H2, the connecting portion 42 disposed between the pair of two pressing members 41, 41 moves from the hook H2 along the arm H3. In this manner, the removal section 40 can be moved via the support section 50 .

Further, when the removing portion 40 is operated, the rear end portion 41b of the pair of pressing members 41, 41, which has a magatama shape when viewed from the side and has a tapered rear end, is inserted into the hook point H4 of the hook H. Move so as to push away the surrounding SA of the affected part. As a result, the removal unit 40 presses the periphery of the portion of the hook H stuck by the hook point H4. As a result, by pulling out the hook point H4, the hook H is pulled out from the tissue of the fish S, and the hook H can be removed from the fish S (see FIG. 9).

Thus, the hook H can be removed while avoiding touching the fish S as much as possible. After that, as shown in FIG. 9, the connecting portion 42 is positioned along the hook H, and the hook point H4 of the hook H is sandwiched between the pair of pressing members 41, 41. By locating the hook point H4 so that the pair of pressing members 41, 41 covers the hook point H4, the possibility of the hook point H4 sticking to the fish S again can be eliminated as much as possible.

In this way, it is possible to provide a hook removing device 10 that does not touch the fish as much as possible when removing not only barbless hooks without barbs but also hooks H with barbs.
