And a clutch mechanism (not shown) for transmitting or cutting off the drive of the motor 5, and a clutch operating motor 31 for operating the clutch mechanism. Side frame 2
1 and 3 are connected to each other by a plurality of stanchions, and the stanchion 10 shown in FIG. 1 is a stanchion on the front side for a fisherman during actual fishing. (In the state of FIG. 1, the fishing line is paid out from the spool 4 to the upper side of FIG. 1.) Further, a side cover 6 for covering the clutch mechanism etc. is attached to the side frame 2, and an electric component ( A side cover 7 is attached to cover (not shown) and the like. The side frames 2 and 3, a plurality of columns, and the like form a reel body.

The clutch actuating motor 31 is arranged in a motor cover. The motor cover has a substantially cylindrical first motor cover 32 having one end having a bottom and the other end having an opening, and the first motor cover 32 for the purpose of waterproofing. The second motor cover 33 closes the opening 32. The second motor cover 33 is fixed to the opening of the first motor cover 32 by adhesion. In order to easily release the heat generated from the clutch operating motor 31, the first motor cover 32 and the second motor cover 33 are formed of a material having high thermal conductivity, for example, aluminum. Further, fins 33A are provided on the surfaces of the first and second covers 32, 33 so as to increase the surface area and enhance the heat radiation effect (FIG. 6). As a result, the clutch actuating motor 31 can be prevented from malfunctioning due to temperature rise and can be used for a long period of time.

As shown in FIG. 7, the clutch actuating motor 31 has a flat portion 31a.
As a result, a relatively large space can be provided between the cylindrical first motor cover 33 and the clutch actuating motor 31. As a result, the amount of air in the space is increased and the heat radiation effect can be enhanced. Further, as shown in FIG. 5, at least a part of the first motor cover 32 is located in contact with the lower portion of the column 10. By covering the support 10 with the metal plate 10A or the like, the motor covers 32, 3
The heat of 3 can be conducted to further improve the heat release efficiency.

A positioning hole 2a is formed in at least one side frame 2 of the pair of side frames 2 and 3, and the first motor cover 32 penetrates the positioning hole 2a and is fitted in the positioning hole 2a. There is. Further, on the inner surface of the side cover 6, a rotation stop hole 6a which is a rotation stop means of the motor cover is provided. An annular step portion 32a as a positioning means is provided so as to project on the outer peripheral surface side of the first motor cover 32, and the annular step portion 32a abuts the positioning hole 2a, whereby the motor cover 32 for the side frame 2 is provided. The axial position of is defined. At the end of the motor cover 32 in the axial direction, a detent protrusion 32b that engages with the detent hole 6a of the side cover 6.
Is protruding. The first motor cover 32 has screws 41, 4 for fixing the motor cover 32 to the side frame 2.
Screw holes 40, 40 for inserting 1 are formed.

However, when the motor cover 32 is inserted from the spool 2 side into the positioning hole 2a, the annular step portion 3 is formed.
The rotation preventing projection 32b is inserted into the rotation preventing hole 6a, and the rotation of the motor cover 32 is blocked. In this state, the first motor cover 32 is fixed to the inner surface of the side frame 2 with the screw 40 from the space side between the side frames 2 and 3.

A wiring hole 32c for wiring the clutch operating motor 31 is formed in the first motor cover 32. Further, the column 10 is formed with a lead wire hole 10a for passing a lead wire 51 (FIG. 6) connected to an electric component (not shown) provided in the side cover 7. The lead wire 51 connected to an electric component (not shown) provided in the side cover 7 passes through the lead wire holes 10a and 32c and is connected to the lead wire 34 of the clutch actuating motor 31 by soldering. Here, the lead wire 34 can be accommodated in the space between the flat portion 31a of the clutch actuating motor 31 and the first motor cover 32, and can be used for the purpose of downsizing.

A control box 8 for controlling the rotation of the spool 4 is provided on the upper surface of the dual-bearing reel 1, and the control box 8 is provided with known switches for instructing the electric winding of the spool 4. ing. Specifically, the power switch is turned on and a speed change switch 8a for instructing a speed change of the winding speed, an instantaneous switch 8b for instructing the winding of the fishing line only while the switch is being pressed, and an instruction for winding the fishing line at the time of collecting the work in progress. An idle switch 8c is provided.

3 and 4 show a structure for transmitting the driving force of the clutch operating motor to a clutch mechanism (not shown). A motor gear 35 is fitted on the rotating shaft of the clutch operating motor 31. The motor gear 35 is meshed with a first connecting gear 36 for transmitting the drive of the clutch operating motor 31 to the clutch lever 11. A second connecting gear 37 mounted coaxially with the first connecting gear 36.
Is meshed with the sector gear 38. The clutch lever 11 is mounted coaxially with the sector gear 38. The clutch lever 11 is connected to a clutch mechanism (not shown). The clutch mechanism is disclosed in JP-A-6-33534.
Those described in No. 0 can be used.

In the above construction, when the clutch actuating motor 31 is replaced, the screws 40, 4 are screwed from the inside of the side frame 2 with a driver without removing the side cover 8.
It is sufficient to loosen 0 and pull out the motor covers 31 and 32 from the positioning hole 2a. And a new clutch actuation motor 3
After connecting the lead wire 34 of No. 1 and the lead wire 10a of the electrical component, the motor covers 31 and 32 having the new clutch actuating motor 31 built therein are positioned from the inside of the side frame 2 to the positioning hole 2a.
Is inserted into and fitted to the annular stepped portion 32a so as to abut the opening end surface of the positioning hole 2a. This defines the position of the motor cover 31 with respect to the side frame 2. At the same time, the detent protrusion 32b engages with the detent hole 6a, and the rotation of the motor cover 32 is blocked. Finally, the screws 41, 41 may be fixed to the side frame 2 with a screwdriver.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, but various modifications can be made. For example, according to the above-described embodiment, the detent means of the motor cover 32 is constituted by the detent hole 6a provided in the side cover 6 and the detent protrusion 32b of the motor cover 32. The rotation stop protrusion 32b is omitted, and the annular step portion 3 of FIG.
It is also possible to prevent rotation of the motor cover 32 by further providing a detent portion on a part of 2a and forming a recess in the positioning hole 2a of the side frame 2 to engage with the detent portion. Further, the motor cover 32 is finally fixed to the side frame 2 by screwing a screw 41 into the side frame 2 through a screw hole 40 formed in the motor cover. You may make it screw it on.

[0017]

According to the dual-bearing reel of the present invention described above, the motor cover incorporating the clutch operating motor can be inserted into and removed from the side frame from the inside, so that the motor cover can be attached and detached without removing the side cover. Therefore, it becomes easy to replace the clutch operating motor. Also, since the motor cover penetrates the side frame and is held at the lower part of the column, it is possible to use a clutch actuating motor that is longer in the axial direction compared to the conventional one. Can be increased.

Further, a positioning hole is formed in one of the side frames, the motor cover is fitted and arranged through the positioning hole, and positioning means is provided so as to project on the outer peripheral surface side of the motor cover. Since the axial position of the motor cover with respect to the side frame is regulated, and the rotation preventing means is provided between the inner surface of at least one of the motor cover and the pair of side covers or between the motor cover and the positioning hole, the motor cover is prevented. The cover can be reliably positioned in place.
