Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to a roller clutch,
In particular, it relates to a roller clutch that transmits rotation in only one direction.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A fishing reel, particularly a spinning reel, is provided with a reverse rotation preventing device so that the rotor does not reverse in the line feeding direction during casting or winding of a line. This reverse rotation prevention device is constituted by a one-way clutch provided between the reel body and the rotor. The one-way clutch adopts a roller clutch to reduce backlash at the start of reverse rotation.
No. 844.

[0003] Generally, a roller clutch is disposed between an outer wheel (an example of an outer member), an inner wheel (an example of an inner member) rotatable relative to the outer wheel, and the outer wheel and the inner wheel, and can be inserted between the two wheels. And a plurality of rollers. Roller clutches include an inner ring idler type and an outer ring idler type.In the outer ring idler type, a cam surface is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the inner ring.In the inner ring idler type, the cam surface is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the outer ring. A cam surface is formed. This cam surface is usually constituted by a linear inclined surface. Here, in the case of the spinning reel disclosed in the above publication, the outer race is mounted on the reel body and the inner race is non-rotatably mounted on the rotor, and the inner race is a spinning reel having a cam surface formed on the inner peripheral surface of the outer race. is there.

[0004]

In the conventional roller clutch in which the cam surface has a straight inclined surface, the performance of transmitting and blocking the rotation is reduced due to the accuracy of the inner ring and the outer ring and the accuracy of the outer diameter of the roller. There is a problem. This is because the cam surface is a linear inclined surface, and the surface facing the cam surface is a circumferential surface, so that, for example, the insertion position of the roller changes in the circumferential direction according to the outer diameter of the roller. This is because the angle between the tangent at the contact point between the roller and the cam surface of the outer ring (or inner ring) and the tangent line at the contact point between the roller and the circumferential surface of the inner ring (or outer ring) varies.

If this angle (hereinafter referred to as a wedge angle) is larger than a desired angle, it becomes difficult for the rollers to be caught between the two wheels when one of the two wheels is relatively rotated in the rotation transmitting direction, and the rotation between the two wheels is difficult. Is not easily transmitted. When the angle is smaller than the desired angle, the roller is hardly inserted between the two wheels, and when one of the two wheels is relatively rotated from the rotation transmitting direction to the rotation blocking direction, the roller is hardly inserted between the two wheels. As a result, rotation cannot be reliably shut off between the two wheels.

An object of the present invention is to make it possible to reliably transmit and cut off rotation between both members of a roller clutch regardless of the accuracy of parts.

[0007]

A roller clutch according to a first aspect of the present invention is a clutch that transmits rotation only in one direction, and includes an outer member, an inner member, and a plurality of rollers. The outer member has an inner peripheral surface. The inner member has an outer peripheral surface and is arranged on the inner peripheral side of the outer member. The rollers are arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction between the outer member and the inner member, so that the rollers can be hardly inserted between the inner member and the outer member. Either the outer peripheral surface or the inner peripheral surface can be brought into contact with the peripheral surface of the roller, and the wedge angle when the roller enters the inner member and the outer member is substantially constant regardless of the outer diameter of the roller. The cam surface is formed by a curved inclined surface.

[0008] In this roller clutch, when one of the inner member and the outer member relatively rotates in the rotation transmitting direction, the roller enters between the two members, and the rotation is transmitted from one member to the other member. In addition, when the roller relatively rotates in the rotation blocking direction, the roller idles between the two members, and the rotation from one member to the other member is blocked. At the time of this rotation transmission, the wedge angle of the cam surface is substantially constant irrespective of the change in the digging position due to the fluctuation of the component accuracy such as the fluctuation of the outer diameter of the roller. Regardless of the accuracy of the parts, the transmission and cutoff of the rotation can be reliably performed between the two members.

A roller clutch according to a second aspect of the present invention is the clutch according to the first aspect, wherein the cam surface is an inclined surface formed on the inner peripheral surface of the outer member and having a radius that increases at regular intervals at predetermined angles. When the inclined surface is formed in this manner, the wedge angle becomes substantially constant irrespective of the change in the outer diameter of the roller in a simple shape in the inner ring idle-type roller clutch. A roller clutch according to a third aspect of the present invention is the clutch according to the first aspect, wherein the cam surface is an inclined surface formed on the outer peripheral surface of the inner member and having a radius that becomes smaller at regular intervals at predetermined angles. When the inclined surface is formed in this manner, in a roller clutch of the outer ring idle type, the wedge angle becomes substantially constant irrespective of a change in the outer diameter of the roller in a simple shape.

A roller clutch according to a fourth aspect of the present invention is the clutch according to any one of the first to third aspects, wherein the roller is switched between a transmission position where the roller is stuck between the two members and a non-transmission position where the roller idles between the two members. Is further provided. In this case, the roller clutch can be forcibly switched by the switching mechanism, so that the roller clutch can be used not only as a one-way clutch but also as an application for shutting off rotation in both directions, thereby expanding the application.

A roller clutch according to a fifth aspect of the present invention is the roller clutch according to any one of the first to fourth aspects, wherein the outer member comprises:
The inner member is non-rotatably fixed to the reel body of the fishing reel, and the inner member is non-rotatably fixed to the rotating body of the fishing reel. In this case, it is possible to reduce the backlash when the rotating body of the fishing reel is reversely rotated from the rotation blocking direction to the rotation transmitting direction.

[0012] A roller clutch according to a sixth aspect of the present invention is the clutch according to the fifth aspect, wherein the fishing reel is a spinning reel, and the rotating body is a rotor. In this case, the play at the time of rotating the rotor of the spinning reel in the reverse direction (rotation in the line feeding direction) can be reduced.

[0013]

The level wind mechanism 6 has a screw shaft 21 disposed below the spool shaft 20, a slider 22 that moves in the front-rear direction along the screw shaft 21, and an intermediate gear 23 fixed to the tip of the screw shaft 21. doing. The screw shaft 21 is connected to the spool shaft 20.
And is rotatably supported by the body 2a. A spiral groove 2 is formed on the outer peripheral portion of the screw shaft 21.
1a is formed. The rear end of the spool shaft 20 is fixed to the slider 22. Further, the intermediate gear 23 meshes with the pinion gear 12.

[Structure of rotor] The rotor 3 has a cylindrical portion 30.
And a first provided on the side of the cylindrical portion 30 so as to face each other.
An arm 31 and a second arm 32 are provided. The cylindrical portion 30 and the arms 31 and 32 are integrally formed. A front wall 33 is formed at a front portion of the cylindrical portion 30,
A boss 33a is formed at the center of the front wall 33. A through hole is formed in the center of the boss 33a, and the through hole is formed between the front portion 12a of the pinion gear 12 and the spool shaft 2.

A bearing 35 that rotatably supports the spool shaft 20 is disposed.

A first bail support member 40 is swingably mounted on the inner peripheral side of the distal end of the first arm portion 31. At the end of the first bail support member 40, a line roller 41 for guiding the fishing line to the spool 4 is mounted. Also, the second arm portion 32 has a second end on the outer peripheral side.
A bail support member 42 is swingably mounted. The second bail support member 42 is made of, for example, a material having a higher specific gravity than other portions, and functions as a balancer for eliminating imbalance during rotation caused by the first bale support member 40 and the line roller 41. Is also possible. A bale 43 is provided between the line roller 41 at the tip of the first bail support member 40 and the second bale support member 42. By mounting the first bail support member 40 on the inner peripheral side of the first arm portion 31 in this manner, the radius of rotation of the first bail support member 40 is reduced, and it is difficult for the first bail support member 40 to hit the hand holding the fishing rod. Therefore, the spool and the fishing rod can be brought close to each other, and the size can be reduced as a whole. Further, for the same reason, the radius of rotation is reduced, and it is easy to suppress imbalance during rotation.

Further, covers 44 and 45 are attached to the outer peripheral sides of the arms 31 and 32, respectively. The surfaces of the covers 44 and 45 are smoothly continuous in the front-rear direction and the circumferential direction, so that the catch of the fishing line can be prevented. Here, both bail support members 40,
Reference numeral 42 is swingable about one swing axis M. The point at which the pivot axis M intersects with the first bail support member mounting surface of the first arm unit 31 is defined as the pivot center C1, and the pivot axis M and the second bail support member mounting surface of the second arm unit 32 are set. When the point at which is intersected is the swing center C2, the swing center C
Reference numeral 2 is located on the front side of the swing center C1. That is, the swing axis M is inclined with respect to the rotation axis X. The bail support members 40 and 42 are arranged such that their swing surfaces are orthogonal to the swing axis M.

[Structure of Reverse Rotation Prevention Mechanism] Inside the cylindrical portion 30 of the rotor 3, a reverse rotation prevention mechanism 50 of the rotor 3 is arranged. The reverse rotation preventing mechanism 50 includes a frame 51 fixed to the reel body 2 and a frame 51, as shown in FIGS.
A one-way clutch 52 housed therein, and an operation mechanism 53 for switching the one-way clutch 52 between an operating state and a non-operating state.

The one-way clutch 52 is an inner-wheel idle-type roller clutch, and includes an outer ring 55 mounted on the frame 51 so as to be relatively non-rotatable, an inner ring 56 fixed to the outer periphery of the front cylindrical portion of the pinion gear 12, and a plurality of one-way clutches. And a retainer 58 that holds the plurality of rollers 57. As shown in FIG. 6, the inner peripheral surface of the outer ring 55 can contact the peripheral surface of the roller 57, and the wedge angle α when the roller 57 fits into the outer ring 55 and the inner ring 56 is equal to the outer diameter of the roller 57. Regardless, a cam surface 55a formed of a curved inclined surface so as to be substantially constant is formed. Here, in the case of the inner ring idle rotation type, the wedge angle α is determined by the tangent line T1 between the roller 57 and the cam surface 55a of the outer ring 55 at the contact C1 and the roller 57.
And the tangent T2 at the contact point C2 between the inner ring 56 and the circumferential surface of the inner ring 56. Specifically, the cam surface 55a is
5 is an inclined surface formed on the inner peripheral surface so that the radii r1 to rn are increased at equal intervals at every predetermined angle β.

The plurality of rollers 57 are disposed between the outer wheel 55 and the inner wheel 56, and can have a transmission position where the two wheels are hardly inserted and a non-transmission position where the rollers are idle between the two wheels. Retainer 58
Is a substantially cylindrical member, is stored in the frame body 51,
It is possible to rotate within a predetermined angle range. A plurality of storage notches 58a are formed in the retainer 58 at equal angular intervals in the circumferential direction, and a roller 57 is provided in each of the notches 58a so as to be movable in the circumferential direction within a predetermined angular range. That is, it is housed movably between the aforementioned transmitting position and the non-transmitting position. In a clutch-on state in which the roller 57 is in the transmission position, the outer ring 55 and the inner ring 56 cannot rotate in only one direction, and in a clutch-off state in which the roller 57 is in the non-transmission position, the outer ring 55 and the inner ring 56 do not rotate. Is relatively rotatable. In each notch 58a, a corrugated leaf spring 59 for urging the roller 57 toward the transmission position is disposed.

The operating mechanism 53 includes a substantially disk-shaped operating plate 60 disposed in the frame 51, a rotating member 61, an operating rod 62 for rotating the rotating member 61, and a rotating member. 6
It has a torsion coil spring 63 as a buffer mechanism disposed between the control rod 1 and the operation rod 62, and an operation lever 64 (see FIG. 1) connected to the rear end of the operation rod 62.

A lock hole 60a is formed in a part of the operation plate 60, and a lock protrusion 61a formed on a side surface of the rotating member 61 is locked in the lock hole 60a. Also,
A plurality of holes 60b are formed in the operation plate 60 at equal angular intervals in the circumferential direction, and projections 58b formed on the rear end face of the retainer 58 are inserted into these holes 60b. Therefore, when the rotating member 61 rotates, the retainer 58 rotates via the operation plate 60, and the roller 57 can be moved between the transmission position and the non-transmission position. Rotating member 6
1 and an operating rod 6
2 can engage with the engaging portion 62a formed on the front end face, but can rotate relative to each other within a predetermined angle range. One end of the torsion coil spring 63 is fixed to the rotating member, and the other end is fixed to the front end surface of the operation rod 62.
Therefore, the rotation moment due to the operation force of the operation rod 62 is transmitted to the rotating member 61 via the torsion coil spring 63.

[Structure of Spool] The spool 4 is disposed between the first arm portion 31 and the second arm portion 32 of the rotor 3, and is attached to the tip of the spool shaft 20 via a drag mechanism 70. I have. The spool 4 has a bobbin trunk 4a around which a fishing line on the outer periphery is wound, a skirt portion 4b integrally formed at a rear portion of the bobbin trunk 4a, and a flange plate 4c fixed to a front end of the bobbin trunk 4a. ing. Flange plate 4c
Is formed of a stainless steel plate and is attached to the bobbin trunk 4a by screws. At this time, the flange plate 4c is slightly curved, and is attached so that no gap is formed between the front end of the bobbin trunk 4a and the flange plate 4c by utilizing the spring property of the curvature. Therefore, the fishing line does not enter between them.

The drag mechanism 70 includes a pressing member 71 pressed against the inner front end face of the spool 4, an adjusting knob 72 for adjusting the drag force, and a pressing spring disposed between the pressing member 71 and the adjusting knob 72. 73, 74
And a plurality of clutch plates 75 arranged between the pressing member 71 and the spool 4. In such a configuration, by adjusting the amount of tightening of the adjustment knob 72, the pressing force of the pressing member 71 against the spool 4 can be adjusted, and the drag force can be adjusted.

[Reel Operation and Operation] At the time of casting, the bail 43 is moved down to the line releasing position. As a result, the first and second bail support members 40 and 42 move
Around the same direction. At this time, the first bail support member 40 is disposed on the inner peripheral side of the first arm portion 31,
Further, since the swing shaft M is inclined with respect to the rotation axis X as shown in FIG. 1, the first bail support member 40 and the line roller 41 at the tip thereof are further on the inner circumferential side than the position in the line winding posture. Go to For this reason, the fishing line unwound during casting is less likely to become entangled with the first bail support member 40 and the line roller 41. Further, while the swing shaft M is inclined with respect to the rotation axis X, both the bail support members 40 and 42
The book rotates about the swing axis M, and each rotation surface is perpendicular to the swing axis M. For this reason, it can rotate smoothly without twisting at the time of rotation.

At the time of winding the fishing line, the bail 43 is moved down to the line winding position. When the handle 1 is rotated in this state,
This rotational force is transmitted to the pinion gear 12 via the handle shaft and the face gear 11. This pinion gear 12
Is transmitted to the rotor 3 via the pinion gear front portion 12a. On the other hand, the screw shaft 21 is rotated by the gear 23 meshing with the pinion gear 12, and the screw shaft 2
The slider 22 that engages with the first groove 21a has a guide shaft 28,
It is guided by 29 and moves in the front-back direction. For this reason, the spool shaft 20 and the spool 4 reciprocate in the front-rear direction along the rotation axis X, and the fishing line guided to the spool 4 by the bail 43 and the line roller 41 is uniformly distributed in the front-rear direction on the outer periphery of the spool 4. It is wound up.

[About imbalance during rotor rotation]
When the rotor 3 rotates, unbalance during rotation is likely to occur due to members such as the bale 43. For this reason, in the present embodiment, in order to eliminate the unbalance due to the bail support members 40 and 42, the line roller 41 and the bail 43, the rear ends of the arms 31 and 32 are shifted toward the bale side in the line winding posture. And each bail support member 40, 4
2 is arranged so that its swinging axis is deviated from the rotation axis X to the bail side in the line releasing posture. Further, the imbalance caused by the line roller 41 is suppressed by disposing the second bail support member 42 on the front side of the first bail support member 40. In addition, by configuring the second bail support member 42 with a heavy material having a higher specific gravity than other members, it is possible to function as a balancer.

[Operation and Operation of Reverse Rotation Prevention Mechanism] At the time of casting or the like, the rotor 3 is prevented from rotating in the reverse direction.
The operation lever 64 moves the roller 57 to the transmission position. That is, as shown in FIG.
By rotating the control rod 4 to one side, the operation rod 62 is rotated in the same direction. This force is applied to the engaging portion 6 of the operating rod 62.
The power is transmitted directly to the rotating member 61 via 2a, and further transmitted to the retainer 58 via the operation plate 60. As a result, the retainer 58 rotates, and the roller 57 held by the retainer 58 can move to the transmission position. When the rotor 3 rotates in the forward direction (the fishing line winding direction) in such a state, the roller 57 idles between the outer ring 55 and the inner ring 56. Therefore, the rotation of the rotor 3 in the forward direction is not hindered. On the other hand, when the rotor 3 rotates in the reverse direction (the fishing line payout direction), the roller 57 is rotated by the outer ring 55 and the inner ring 56.
, And the two are in a state in which they cannot rotate relative to each other.
Here, since the outer race 55 is fixed to the reel body 2 via the frame 51, the rotation of the inner race 56, that is, the rotation of the rotor 3 in one direction (the direction in which the fishing line is paid out) is prohibited.

When the operation lever 64 is rotated in the opposite direction (the state shown in FIG. 7B), the roller 57 is moved to the non-transmission position by the same operation as described above. In this state, the roller 57 cannot be easily inserted between the outer ring 55 and the inner ring 56. Therefore, the inner ring 56 can rotate in both the forward and reverse directions with respect to the outer ring 55, and the rotor 3 can rotate in the fishing line payout direction.

Here, in a state where the roller 57 is stuck between the two wheels 55 and 56, the wedge angle α is substantially constant. The force is hard to change. Therefore, the rotation can be transmitted reliably, and the reverse rotation of the rotor 3 can be reliably prevented.
However, a large force is required to pull out the roller 57 from between the two wheels 55 and 56 and move it to the non-transmission position. In this state, the roller 5 is directly moved by the operation rod 62 or the like.
If the user attempts to move 7, the operation rod 62 and the like may be damaged. Therefore, in this embodiment, a torsion coil spring 63 as a buffer mechanism is provided between the operation rod 62 and the rotating member 61. In this case, the roller 57
When the operating lever 64 is operated in a state where a load is applied and the operating lever 64 is operated, the rotational force of the operating lever 64 is temporarily stored in the torsion coil spring 63 (see FIG. 7).
(C)). And the roller 57 at the transmission position
Is released, the rotating power stored in the torsion coil spring 63 is transmitted to the roller 57 via the rotating member 61 and the like.

As described above, by providing the torsion coil spring 63 as the buffering mechanism in the operating mechanism 53, damage to the operating lever 64, the operating rod 62 and the like can be avoided.
Further, the retainer 5 can be moved from the rotating member 61 via the operation plate 60.
8, the retainer 58 is rotated by the rotation member 61.
The inclination of the retainer 58 can be suppressed as compared with a case where the is directly rotated.

[Other Examples] (a) In the above embodiment, an example of the inner ring idler type was described, but the present invention is not limited to the inner ring idler type. In the case of the outer ring idler type, as shown in FIG. 8, a cam surface 56a formed on the outer peripheral surface of the inner ring 57 has a radius r at a predetermined angle α.
What is necessary is just to comprise the slope which 1-rn becomes small at equal intervals. When the cam surface 56a is formed in this manner, the rotor 57
The wedge angle α is substantially constant irrespective of the accuracy of the component such as the variation of the outer diameter. Here, the wedge angle α of the outer ring idle type is
This is the angle formed by the tangent T1 at the contact C1 between the roller 57 and the outer ring 55 and the tangent T2 at the contact C2 between the roller 57 and the cam surface 56a of the inner ring 56.

(B) In the above embodiment, the roller clutch mounted on the spinning reel has been described as an example, but the present invention is not limited to this, and can be applied to all roller clutches as mechanical elements.

[0036]

According to the present invention, at the time of rotation transmission, the wedge angle of the cam surface is substantially constant irrespective of a change in the wedging position due to a change in component accuracy such as a change in the outer diameter of the roller. Then, the roller is engaged between the two members, so that the rotation can be reliably transmitted and blocked between the two members regardless of the accuracy of the parts.
