Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a double bearing reel, and more specifically to a double bearing reel which is not equipped with a drag mechanism and can apply a click brake to the spool.

Conventionally, in double bearing reels that are not equipped with a drag mechanism, the clutch is set in the ON state,
Moreover, when a fish hooks with the non-return mechanism turned off,
The fishing line is let out as the fish escapes, but at this time, no tension acts on the reverse rotation of the spool, so line dandruff (the so-called fishing line perm phenomenon) occurs due to the relationship between the rotation of the spool and the speed at which the fishing line is let out. It has some problems.

On the other hand, if the brake is applied to the rotation of the spool at all times, the brake will work on the rotation of the spool even when taking out the fishing line from the spool to remove the fishing line, making it possible to quickly lower the bait to the desired depth. There is a problem that says it cannot be done.

This invention was devised to solve the above-mentioned problems, and a click brake device is attached to the clutch mechanism that switches between driving and free rotation of the spool.
This prevents thread dandruff and allows quick removal of tanning.

The double-bearing shaft reel of the present invention achieves this purpose.
A click brake gear is integrally attached to the pinion gear that engages and disengages from the spool shaft, and a click pawl is engaged with the click brake gear on a sliding plate that disengages the pinion gear from the spool shaft by pushing the clutch operating lever. This feature is characterized in that the click pawl is attached in a resiliently biased manner in the direction of the push button, and that the click pawl can be freely engaged with and disengaged from the click brake gear by means of a switching lever.

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. Reference numerals 1 and 1' are side frames constituting the reel body;
The side frames 1, 1' include a substrate 1-a, a cover 1-b,
The spool shaft 4 of the spool 3 is rotatably supported horizontally across bearings 2 attached to the left and right spool rings 1-c, and the side frame A power transmission mechanism and a clutch mechanism for rotating the spool 3 are built into the spool 1.

A pinion gear 5 is attached to the spool shaft 4 in the side frame 1 so as to be slidable along the axial direction.
The pinion gear 5 meshes with a main gear 7 that rotates integrally with a handle shaft 6 that is rotatably supported on the base plate 1a, and the pinion gear 5 is configured to be able to engage and disengage from the spool shaft 4. When engaged with the spool shaft, rotation of the handle is transmitted to the spool 3 via the main gear 7 and pinion gear 5, and when the pinion gear 5 is disengaged by the spool shaft 4, the spool 3 rotates freely.

Further, a click brake gear 8 is integrally attached to the pinion gear 5, and an annular groove 9 is cut out in the circumferential surface, into which a sliding plate 10 forming a clutch mechanism is fitted and engaged. There is.

The clutch mechanism for engaging and disengaging the pinion gear 5 from the spool shaft 4 consists of a sliding plate 10 that engages with the annular groove 9 of the pinion gear 5, and a clutch operating lever 11 that moves the sliding plate 10 up and down. By pushing the lever 11
An inclined portion 12 formed on the bifurcated piece lifts the sliding plate 10, and the pinion gear 5 is disengaged from the spool shaft 4.

A click pawl 13 is mounted on the sliding plate 10 so as to face the circumferential surface of the click brake gear 8.

The click claw 13 has one end formed into a sharp point, and the other end bent upward to form a receiving piece 14.
A switching cam 16 that rotates in conjunction with the operation of the switching lever 15 abuts on and engages with this receiving piece 14 so that the click pawl 13 can be separated from the click brake gear 8.

Further, the click pawl 13 is attached to the sliding plate 10 with a pin 18 through a long hole 17 formed in the center of the click pawl 13 so as to be swingable (slidable), and the click pawl 13 is slidably attached to the receiving piece 14. Click springs 19 and 19' are stretched across the left and right sides of the moving plate 10, and thereby the tips of the click pawls 13 are biased against the click brake gear 8.

As a result, when the pinion gear 5 rotates, the click brake gear 8 also rotates together with the click pawl 13, which slides in the front-rear direction and applies a braking force to the rotation of the pinion gear 5.

As shown in FIG. 4, the sliding of the click pawl 13 is achieved by fixing the guide pins 20, 20' upright on the sliding plate 10 on both sides of the click pawl 13, and by pivoting the click pawl 13. It is also possible to tension the click spring 21 across the pin 18 and the receiving piece 14 so that the click pawl 13 slides linearly.

Next, I will explain the operation of the above configuration.
First, when the clutch operating lever 11 is pushed in the direction of the arrow, the sliding plate 10 is lifted upward while retaining the pinion gear 5, the spool shaft 4 and the pinion gear 5 are disengaged, and the spool 3 rotates freely. The clutch becomes OFF.

At this time, the click pawl 13 attached to the sliding plate 10 is lifted together with the sliding plate 10 while remaining in mesh with the click brake gear 8.

Therefore, when the clutch is in the OFF state, no braking force acts on the rotation of the spool 3.
(See Figure 3) When the clutch is turned on by forward rotation of the handle or operation of the clutch release lever, the pinion gear 5 and spool shaft 4 are engaged, and the rotation of the spool 3 also rotates the click brake gear 8. The click claw 13 is attached to the click springs 19, 19'.
The click brake gear 8 is elastically biased by the operation of the spool 3, and a braking force is applied to the rotation of the spool 3.

Therefore, when a fish is hooked with the non-return mechanism in the OFF state, the spool 3 rotates in the opposite direction due to the escape of the fish, but a brake is applied to this rotation by the action of the click pawl and the click spring, and the line is tightened. Dandruff is prevented.

Incidentally, when winding up the fishing line, by operating the switching lever 15 and separating the click pawl 13 from the click brake gear 8, it is possible to release the braking force from acting on the forward rotation of the spool 3.

Since the double bearing shaft reel of the present invention has the above structure, when the fishing line is let out due to a fish escaping, etc., the click pawl is engaged with the click brake gear that rotates integrally with the spool, so that the spool can be pulled out. A braking force can be applied to the rotation of the thread, thereby preventing the occurrence of thread dandruff.

In addition, the click pawl that meshes with the click brake gear can be freely engaged and disengaged by operating a switching lever provided on the side frame, so when winding up the fishing line, the braking force can be adjusted by disengaging the click pawl and the click brake gear. You can easily wind up the fishing line by releasing the function.

Furthermore, since the click pawl is attached to the sliding plate of the clutch mechanism that slides the pinion gear, when the clutch is turned off and the clutch is removed, the braking force generated by the click pawl and the clutch brake gear is not transmitted to the spool, so it is not transmitted to the spool. You can quickly lower the fishing line to the depth of the fishing rod.

Therefore, it is possible to provide a dual bearing reel suitable for fishing.
