Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial application] The present invention relates to a drag force measuring device for a mask-type fishing reel, and more particularly to a cover surface in which the rotation of a handle is transmitted to a rotor via the drag device. TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a drag force measuring device for a fishing reel.

[Conventional technology]

In order to prevent the fishing reel from being easily cut, the fishing reel will not be easily cut when the fishing line is pulled more than its capacity due to strong pulling or sudden reversal of the fishing line, such as when fighting with a fish that has been tackled. A drag device for doing so is mounted, and is known from Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 48-50592.

This type of drag device is generally equipped with a drag washer, a lining washer, a drag washer, a lining washer, and the like so that a spool or a rotor that is about to rotate in the line feeding direction with respect to a fish pull can be frictionally braked with a predetermined force when the reel fighting mode is set.
It has a structure in which a compression spring and a drag adjustment knob are combined, and the drag force that determines the tensile strength for reeling out the spool or rotor is the tightening force for the washer group by the drag adjustment knob. It can be adjusted according to the thread used and the target fish by adjusting the amount.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

In the conventional drag device as described above, an indicator is formed on the drag adjustment knob, and a display scale is formed on the reel body.
The drag force is displayed by adjusting the indication part of the knob to the display scale. However, this does not merely display the actual drag force by merely displaying the pressing force of the spring member with respect to the drag washer group as the amount of rotation of the knob, but merely represents a measure of the drag force. Therefore, it is impossible to know how much drag force actually acts on the spool or the rotor. Especially when the drag washer wears or the spring force decreases due to fatigue of the spring member, the relationship between the scale value and the drag force indicated by the knob changes, and the desired drag force is set accurately. Is equal to impossible. Also, when setting the drag force, there is also a method of sensuously detecting the tensile strength when the fishing line wound on the spool is pulled out by hand, but there are variations in the set drag force due to individual differences. As a result, a beginner or the like often tightens with a drag force equal to or greater than the strength of the fishing line, which causes a problem that the line is often cut during fishing.

[Purpose of device]

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and enables measurement and confirmation of the actual drag force set by the drag device, and at the same time, sets the drag force suitable for the used thread and fishing conditions. It is an object of the present invention to provide a drag force measuring device for a mask-type fishing reel that can be simply performed.

When the push lever provided on the reel body that engages with the handle shaft, the handle shaft that is rotatably arranged in the reel body so as to be orthogonal to the drive shaft, and the handle shaft and the drive gear are frictionally coupled to each other. It is equipped with a drag device that applies a drag force to the rotor, a handle that is connected to the handle shaft, and a front cover that is attached to the front surface of the reel body and that covers the spool and the rotor, and transmits the rotation of the handle to the rotor through the drag device. In the cover-type fishing reel thus arranged, on the front surface of the rotor, a ring-shaped support member concentrically provided in the center of the front surface of the rotor, and a drag force measurement knob rotatably retained by the support member are held. , A drag force measuring mechanism including a drag force measuring knob and a measuring spring member that connects the rotor and the rotor to each other to generate a torque corresponding to the drag force set by the drag device on the drag force measuring knob, and a front cover A large-diameter operation hole that doubles as a fishing line lead-out hole for rotating the drag force measurement knob is provided in the front center of the On the surface of the measuring knobs, one in which the rotor is provided with a display unit that converts displayed in drag force relative rotational displacement amount when the knob and bring about a drag force measurements.

[Function of device]

In the present invention, when the front cover is gripped in the palm of one hand and the other hand is used to rotate the drag force measuring knob against the measuring spring member, the drag force measuring knob is operated by the drag device. A rotation torque corresponding to the set drag force is generated, and when this rotation torque becomes equal to or more than the drag force set by the drag device, the drag device slips and the rotor starts to rotate together with the drag force measurement knob. Therefore, it is possible to measure the actual set drag force of the drag device by converting and displaying the relative rotational displacement amount between the knob and the rotor at this time on the display unit.

First, the drag force adjusting knob 24 of the drag device 20 is rotated to adjust the drag force according to the thickness of the fishing line 6 and the fishing conditions. At this time, the spring pressure of the leaf spring 25, which changes according to the rotational operation amount of the knob 24, acts on the drive gear 19 via the guide bush 15, and the friction force (between the washers and between the drive gears 19) corresponding to the spring pressure ( The drag force is generated, and the drive gear 19 and the handle shaft 16 are frictionally coupled to each other.

By looking at the scale value indicated by b, it can be accurately known whether or not the set drag force is suitable for the fishing line 6. For example, if the fishing line used by the fisherman is a 6-pound line, the drag force adjusting knob 24 may be adjusted so that the indicating portions 32a and 32b indicate the scale of the numerical value "2". As a result, even a beginner of fishing can easily set the drag force suitable for the thread and the fishing condition, and it is possible to prevent the occurrence of troubles such as thread breakage due to an inappropriate drag force setting. Further, since the characteristics of the drag device 20 can be confirmed by actual measurement, it is possible to accurately grasp the wear state (lifetime) of the drag washer and the like, the maintenance of the drag device is facilitated, and a highly reliable reel can be provided. Furthermore, since the drag force measuring knob 29 projects into the hole 33a of the front cover 33, the measurement operation becomes easy.
