Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a roller top guide for a fishing rod, preventing a line from being separated from a line guide roller even if the tip of a fishing rod is pulled and laterally pulling action strongly acts on the fishing rod. CONSTITUTION:A frame 5 of a guide head part 4 is equipped with a stopping means which limits the rocking range of arms 12 and 13 for supporting a line guide ring 11, rockingly held on a shaft at a guide head part 4 to a range in which the highest point of a line contact face 15 of the line guide ring 11 does not exceed an extended line of a rotary shaft center O-O of the guide head part. In catching a large fish which takes a hook, when the tip of a fishing rod is being pulled approximately vertically against the surface of the sea, the line will not be separated from the guide roller even if the fish swims laterally all of sudden. Consequently, the occurrence of the situation of cut of the line caused by contact of the line with the edge of the frame can be prevented.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an improvement of a roller top guide which is attached to the tip of a fishing rod and allows a line to follow the movement of a rod or a fish.

2. Description of the Related Art As a roller rod top guide for a fishing rod, a structure such as that disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 1-30057 is already known, but as shown in FIG. Because the arm B that swings is swingable in the direction of the double arrow C, when a large fish is caught, when the fish is taken in, the rod tip is pulled in until it becomes substantially vertical to the sea surface, and if the fish suddenly runs sideways. However, there is a problem that the yarn often comes off the roller D, comes into contact with the edge F of the frame E, and is cut.

[0003]

In view of the problems of the above-mentioned conventional roller top guide, the present invention is directed to a sudden sideways movement of a fish or a displacement of a fishing rod in a state in which the rod tip is retracted almost vertically to the sea surface. An object of the present invention is to provide a roller top guide that does not cause the yarn from slipping from the roller even if the above occurs.

[0004]

In order to solve the above problems, according to the invention of claim 1, the roller top guide is brought into contact with a yarn on an inner peripheral surface of a yarn guide ring supported by a swingable arm. The uppermost point of the surface can be kept within a range that does not exceed the extension line of the rotation axis of the guide head.

Therefore, the relationship between the thread and the thread guide ring is
In order to keep it within the above range, the stopper means for restricting the swing range of the arm supporting the guide thread guide ring is provided in the frame of the guide head of the roller top guide.

In the invention of claim 2, the stopper means is
It is composed of a protruding portion from the frame that protrudes outward of the frame including the swing range of the arm.

In the third aspect of the invention, the stopper means is composed of the rolling pin attached to the arm and the front end edge portion of the frame with which the pin abuts.

[0008]

According to the present invention, the arm supporting the thread guide ring is swung and abuts against the stopper means provided on the frame of the guide head, and further rotation is prevented at a position where the thread is not rotated. The uppermost point of the contact surface of the inner peripheral surface of the guide ring with the yarn is kept within a range that does not exceed the extension line of the rotation axis of the guide head.

Moreover, since the path thread is guided to the minimum diameter portion of the path thread guide roller, a large fish is caught, and at the time of taking in, the fish is suddenly pulled in a state in which the rod tip is pulled almost vertically to the sea surface. Running sideways and the roller top guide is rocked to the sideways running of the fish, the thread does not deviate from the minimum diameter portion of the thread guiding roller and therefore does not contact the edge of the frame.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, the structure of the stopper means is simplified and no increase in parts and weight occurs.
According to the invention of claim 3, the strength of the stopper means can be increased.
