Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a fishing reel, and more particularly, to a fishing reel comprising a reel body rotatably supporting a spool around which a fishing line is wound.

(Prior Art) Generally, a double-bearing reel for fishing uses a reel body having first and second side frames, and a spool is rotatably supported between both side frames of the reel body to drive the spool. supporting a drive mechanism on the first side frame;
A mounting leg is provided at the bottom of the reel body and at the center between the two side frames, and the mounting leg is configured to be attached to a reel seat of a fishing rod.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, in the conventional reel, the center of gravity is located at the center between the two side frames, in other words, the center of gravity is located at the first side frame that supports the drive mechanism with respect to the mounting leg that is attached to the center. Since the first side frame is heavier than the second side frame around the mounting legs, when fishing on a boat or on a rocky shore with a reel attached to a fishing rod, it is difficult to place the fishing rod on a boat, on a rocky area, etc. Then, the fishing rod rotates toward the center of gravity of the reel, and the reel attached to the fishing rod tilts toward the first side frame, where the center of gravity is located, and the entire reel is turned so that the axis of the spool is directed in the vertical direction. be.

Therefore, when seawater heats up toward the reel while the fishing rod is placed, the seawater flows from the space between the outer peripheral surface of the flange of the spool and the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion of the reel body that faces the outer peripheral surface. This will penetrate into the first side frame and wet the drive mechanism within the first side frame. Therefore, there is a problem that this drive mechanism rusts. Furthermore, if the mounting leg is arranged in the center between the side frames as described above, even when winding the fishing line onto the spool of the reel attached to the fishing rod, the reel can easily turn toward the first side frame. Therefore, an extra large force is required to stop this rotation, and additional nerves are used, which causes fatigue when winding the fishing line.

The purpose of the present invention is to prevent a conventional reel from tilting toward one side frame that supports the drive mechanism when attached to a fishing line, so that the entire reel is tilted so that the axis of the spool is directed in the vertical direction. This is intended to solve the problem that the reel tends to turn toward the one side frame when reeling the fishing line, and the mounting leg is attached to the center between the first and second side frames. Breaking away from the idea that is taken for granted, by displacing this mounting leg with respect to the center between the first and second side frames, when used attached to a fishing rod, the reel can be moved from one side to the other. This makes it possible to prevent the entire reel from tilting toward the side frame, with the axis of the spool oriented in the vertical direction, and to prevent the reel from turning toward the one side frame when winding the fishing line.

(Means for Solving the Problems) Accordingly, the present invention provides a reel body having a pair of side frames, in which a spool is rotatably supported between the side frames, and a drive mechanism for driving the spool is connected to the side frames of the reel body. In a fishing reel supported on one side of a frame and provided with a mounting leg at the bottom of the reel body, the mounting leg is mounted on the side of one side frame in which the drive mechanism is provided relative to the center between the side frames, and The mounting leg is provided at a position displaced near the center of gravity of the reel, and the mounting leg is inclined toward the center between the side frames toward the front of the reel body.

(Function) The mounting leg for attaching the reel to the fishing rod is provided on one side frame side where the drive mechanism is provided with respect to the center between the side frames, and at a position displaced near the center of gravity of the reel. The side frame side on which the drive mechanism is provided around this mounting leg can be made lighter than the other side frame side facing the side frame. Therefore, when used attached to a fishing rod, the fishing rod can be attached to a boat. Even when placed against a slope or rocky area, the reel attached to this fishing rod will tilt toward the side frame that supports the drive mechanism, and the entire reel will avoid the spool's axis pointing in the vertical direction. Therefore, as mentioned above, even if seawater is heated toward the reel attached to the fishing rod when the fishing rod is placed,
This seawater can be prevented from entering the side frame in which the drive mechanism is installed through the space between the outer peripheral surface of the flange of the spool and the cylindrical portion of the reel body,
It is possible to prevent the drive mechanism from rusting, and by arranging the mounting leg near the axis of the reel, the reel remains stable even when winding fishing line onto the spool of the reel attached to the fishing rod. Since it is difficult to turn to the one side frame side, the force required to stop the turning is small, and since there is no need to use unnecessary nerves, the angler's fatigue can be reduced. In addition, as described above, when the mounting leg is displaced, the axial center of the spool and the center of the fishing rod are shifted, so when the fishing line is paid out or reeled from the spool, the position of the fishing line on the spool or the fishing line guide mechanism When using the fishing line guide or fishing line guide mechanism, the relative angle with the level wind becomes larger than when the mounting leg is provided in the center between the side frames. , the resistance of the fishing line due to the fishing line guide and the level wind increases, but since the mounting leg is inclined towards the front of the reel body and towards the center between the side frames, when the reel is attached to the fishing rod. , the center line between the side frames can be oriented in the direction of the fishing line guide of the fishing rod, and thus the direction of the fishing line being paid out or wound from the spool;
This makes it possible to reduce the angle of inclination with respect to the axial direction of the fishing rod, thereby reducing the frictional resistance of the fishing line as it is let out from the spool and wound up, and the above-mentioned problems can be solved at the same time.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of the reel of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

The illustrated reel is a double-bearing reel, and A is made up of a pair of first and second side frames 1 and 2 that face each other at a predetermined interval, and a connecting body 3 that connects these side frames 1 and 2. A spool shaft 4 is supported between the side frames 1 and 2 of the reel body A so as to be displaceable in the axial direction, and a cylindrical body 51 is provided at the center of the spool shaft 4. A pair of first and second flanges 5 protruding radially outward from both lengthwise ends.
A pair of bearings G ₁ , which are movable relative to the spool shaft 4 make the spool 5 composed of
It is rotatably supported via G ₂ , and
Attachment legs 6 are provided at the bottom of the reel body A.

The side frames 1 and 2 have annular portions 11 and 21 facing the outer peripheral surface of the flange of the spool 5.
Inner chambers 12 and 22 having inner chambers 12 and 22 with
2, 53 and the annular portions 11, 21 from entering into the inner chambers 12, 22.
In addition, a drag mechanism 7 and a drive mechanism 8 are provided in the inner chamber 12 of the first side frame 1, and a handle 9 is provided.
The driving force generated by the rotation of the spool 5 is transmitted to the spool 5 via the drive mechanism 8 and the drag mechanism 7.

Further, the drag mechanism 7 includes a drag washer 71 held on the end surface of the first flange 51 of the spool 5 so as to be non-rotatable relative to the spool 5 and displaceable in the axial direction.
, a drag disk 72 that supports the spool shaft 4 so as to freely rotate and move relative to the spool shaft 4, and a contact plate 73 that is held on the disk 72 and faces the drag washer 71.

Further, the drive mechanism 8 includes a pinion gear 81 rotatably supported on the spool shaft 4, a master gear 82 meshing with the pinion gear 81, and a cylindrical support shaft 10 connected to the first side frame 1. The master gear 82 is supported at the end of the drive shaft 83 that protrudes into the first side frame 1, and the end of the drive shaft 83 that protrudes to the outside of the first side frame 1 supports the master gear 82. The handle 9
is fixed, and the driving force due to the rotation of the handle 9 is
The signal is transmitted to the spool 5 via the master gear 82, pinion gear 81, drag disk 72, contact plate 73, and drag washer 71 to drive the spool 5, and one end of the spool shaft 4 is connected to the 1 a drag lever 2 that protrudes outward from the side frame 1 and operates the displacement of the spool shaft 4 in the axial direction on the outer periphery of the protrusion;
0 so that only relative rotation is possible, and the mounting body 30 of the drag lever 20 is attached to the shaft end of the protruding end, and between the drag lever 20 and the mounting body 30, there is a shaft that is displaced in the axial direction in the circumferential direction. a pair of first and second cam bodies 41 having cam surfaces that
42, and by rotating the drag lever 20, the second cam body 42 on the mounting body 30 side is moved away from the first cam body 41 on the drag lever 20 side in the axial direction, and the spool shaft 4 is moved as shown in FIG. In addition to displacing the spool shaft 4 in the direction of the arrow, the movement of the spool shaft 4 is transferred to the spool ₅ via the leaf spring 43 and the bearing G2.
, the spool 5 is displaced together with the spool shaft 4 toward the first side frame 1, and the drag washer 71 is pressed against the drag disk 72, and the drag force caused by this pressure causes the free rotation of the spool 5 to a predetermined level. I'm trying to provide some resistance.

Therefore, the mounting leg 6 is provided at a position displaced from the center X between the first and second side frames 1 and 2 toward the first side frame 1 where the drive mechanism 8 is provided. Moreover, this mounting leg 6 is
It is provided at a position displaced toward the first side frame 1 with respect to the center of gravity of the reel, and a second
The side frame 2 side is made to be heavier than the first side frame 1 side. Incidentally, this mounting leg 6 may be provided at the center of gravity of the reel.

The mounting leg 6 is formed into a rectangular shape extending in the front-rear direction of the reel body A, and a mounting piece 61 is provided on one side in the width direction. Two mounting holes 62 are provided in each of the mounting piece 61 and the mounting leg 6, and four mounting holes 31 are provided in the connecting body 3 of the reel body A, and a mounting pin 50 is inserted into these mounting holes 62 and 31. The mounting leg 6 is attached to the connecting body 3 via a mounting means such as the like. In the drawing, both ends of the mounting pin 50 are caulked.

The mounting leg 6 is attached to the second side frame 2 toward the front of the reel body A (in the direction of arrow Y in FIG. 1) with respect to the center X, as shown in FIG.
It is installed at an angle so that it is displaced to the side.

The illustrated reel is also provided with a cylindrical body 44 that extends axially outward from the outer periphery of the first flange 52 of the spool 5 and surrounds the drag mechanism 7. is provided with an annular projection 45 projecting radially outward and a disc-shaped cover 46 projecting radially inward and covering the opening of the cylindrical body 44, and the attachment of the first side frame 1 is provided. A drainage channel 47 opening from the inner chamber 12 to the outside is provided on the bottom surface of the side of the leg 6, so that when fishing, the drainage channel 47 runs along the outer circumferential surface of the first flange 52 and drains the water between the inner chambers 12 and 52.
If water intrudes into the inner chamber 12 from the annular projection 45, the annular protrusion 45 prevents the infiltrating water from further intruding, and directs the intruding water through the side surface of the annular protrusion 45 and the outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical body 44. If the water flows to the bottom side of the reel body A and falls on the inner bottom surface of the inner chamber 12, and if there is water that has climbed over the annular protrusion 45, this water is allowed to flow along the outer surface of the cover 46 to the inner bottom surface of the inner chamber 12. The liquid is allowed to fall onto the inner bottom surface of the chamber 12 and flow out through the drainage channel 47 to protect the drag mechanism 7.

Further, in the figure, 48 is a level wind, and 49 is a transmission mechanism that transmits the driving force of the handle 9 to the level wind 48 via the spool 5.
Note that the level wind 48 and the transmission mechanism 49 are not necessarily required.

Therefore, the reel constructed as described above is used together with fishing rod B by attaching the mounting leg 6 to the reel seat of fishing rod B. Since the second side frame 2 side is heavier than the first side frame 1 side around the mounting leg 6, the fishing rod B rotates to the second side frame 2 side of the reel, and when attached to this fishing rod B. The reel is tilted toward the second side frame, and the gap K of the reel on the first side frame 1 side is opened downward. Therefore, if seawater heats up toward the reel while the fishing rod is placed, it is possible to prevent the seawater from entering the gap K on the side of the first side frame 1. As a result, the drive mechanism 8 and drag mechanism 7 provided in the first side frame 1 can be prevented from getting wet, and the drive mechanism 8 and drag mechanism 7 can be prevented from rusting and the drag washer 71 can be prevented from deforming due to water wetting.

Furthermore, as described above, when the mounting leg 6 is displaced, the axial center of the spool 5 and the center of the fishing rod B are shifted, so when the fishing line is paid out or wound up from the spool 5, the fishing line on the spool 5 is When using a position or fishing line guide mechanism, its relative angle with the level wind 48 becomes larger than when the mounting leg 6 is provided in the center between the side frames 1 and 2, and as a result, the fishing line Guide C
Alternatively, when using a fishing line guide mechanism, the resistance of the fishing line due to the fishing line guide C and the level wind 48 increases, but the mounting leg 6 is attached between the side frames 1 and 2 toward the front of the reel body A. Since the reel is tilted toward the center, when the reel is attached to the fishing rod B, the center line between the side frames 1 and 2 can be directed toward the fishing line guide C of the fishing rod B, so that the reel can be reeled out from the spool 5. This means that the angle of inclination between the direction of the fishing line being wound and the axial direction of the fishing rod B can be reduced, and the spool 5
This reduces the frictional resistance of the fishing line as it is let out and reeled in.

In the above embodiment, the drag mechanism 7 is provided in the inner chamber 12 of the first side frame 1 that supports the handle.
Although the reel provided with the drive mechanism 8 and the drive mechanism 8 has been described, the second side frame 1 facing the first side frame 1 is
A similar configuration can be applied to a reel in which a drag mechanism and a drive mechanism are housed in the inner chamber 22 of the side frame 2.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above, the present invention has a mounting leg provided at the bottom of a reel body equipped with a pair of side frames, and a mounting leg provided on the side of one side frame where a drive mechanism is provided relative to the center between the side frames, and Since it is disposed at a position displaced near the center of gravity of the reel, the side frame side on which the drive mechanism is provided around this mounting leg can be made lighter than the other side frame side facing the side frame. When using a reel attached to a fishing rod, even if the fishing rod is placed leaning against a ship's gunwale or rocky area, the reel attached to the fishing rod will tilt toward the side frame that supports the drive mechanism, and the entire reel will spool. Since it is possible to avoid the axis of the fishing rod from being directed in the vertical direction, as mentioned above, when the fishing rod is placed,
Even if seawater is directed toward the reel attached to the fishing rod, this seawater is prevented from entering the side frame where the drive mechanism is installed through the gap between the outer peripheral surface of the flange of the spool and the cylindrical portion of the reel body. In addition, by arranging the mounting leg near the axis of the reel, rusting of the drive mechanism can be prevented, even when winding the fishing line onto the spool of the reel attached to the fishing rod. , since it is difficult for the reel to turn to the one side frame side,
The force required to stop this rotation is small, and since there is no need to use unnecessary nerves, the angler's fatigue can be reduced.

Furthermore, as described above, when the mounting leg is displaced, the axial center of the spool and the center of the fishing rod are shifted, so when the fishing line is paid out or wound up from the spool, the position of the fishing line on the spool or the fishing line guide When a mechanism is used, the relative angle with the level wind is larger than when the mounting leg is provided in the center between the side frames, and as a result, when the fishing line guide or fishing line guide mechanism is used, Although the resistance of the fishing line due to the fishing line guide and the level wind increases, since the mounting leg is inclined toward the front of the reel body and toward the center between the side frames, when the reel is attached to the fishing rod, The center line between the side frames can be oriented in the direction of the fishing line guide of the fishing rod, and therefore the angle of inclination between the direction of the fishing line being paid out or wound up from the spool and the axial direction of the fishing rod can be made small. It is possible to reduce the frictional resistance of the fishing line as it is let out and wound up from the spool, and the above-mentioned problems can be solved at the same time.
