Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a dual-bearing reel, and more particularly to a dual-bearing reel provided with a drag mechanism for braking a spool by moving a spool shaft in an axial direction by a lever.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a dual-bearing reel, a lever-drag dual-bearing reel in which a spool is axially moved by a lever to brake the spool is known. The dual-bearing reel includes a reel body having a pair of side plates, a spool shaft rotatably supported on the reel body, a spool rotatably supported on the spool shaft, and a drag mechanism for braking the spool. A rotation transmission mechanism for rotating the spool by rotating the handle.

[0003] The spool is movable in the axial direction together with the spool shaft. The drag mechanism includes a braking member fixed to an outer surface of one end of the flange portion of the spool, a drag disk that can be pressed against the braking member, and a spool shaft moving mechanism that moves the spool shaft in the axial direction. The drag disk is rotatably supported by the spool shaft, and rotation from the handle is transmitted to the drag disk via a rotation transmission mechanism.

The spool shaft moving mechanism is provided with a drag lever swingably supported by the reel body, a cap member fixed to one end of the spool shaft, and disposed between the drag lever and the cap member to rotate on the reel body. And a cam member that is improperly mounted. An inclined cam is formed on the cam member, and by swinging the drag lever, the drag lever rides on the inclined cam, and the cam member presses the cap member to move the spool shaft in one axial direction. The movement of the spool shaft to the other side is performed, for example, by the urging force of a coil spring disposed between the drag disk and the braking member.

[0005] In such a dual bearing reel, the driving force due to the rotation of the handle is transmitted to the drag disk of the drag mechanism via the rotation transmission mechanism, and is transmitted to the spool by the pressure contact between the drag disk and the braking member. The drag force is adjusted by swinging a drag lever attached to one end of the spool shaft in one direction. When the drag lever is swung in one direction, the cam member moves the spool shaft to one side in the axial direction, the spool approaches the drag mechanism, and the braking member is pressed against the drag disk. In such a dual-bearing reel, the drag force (pressing force) of the drag mechanism is adjusted by operating the drag lever, and the spool is freely rotated by separating the braking member and the drag disk.

[0006]

In the dual bearing reel having the conventional drag mechanism, a sound producing member for sound generation is mounted between the spool and the reel body, or between the drag disk and the braking member, so that the angler can use the reel. It notifies that the spool is rotating or that the drag is operating. This is particularly useful in the case of a fishing rod or a trolling where the angler leaves the fishing rod as it is after the mechanism is put into the sound generating mechanism. However, if there is a sound generating mechanism between the spool and the reel body, the sound is also generated at the time of winding, and the rotation becomes heavy correspondingly. In any case, when the spool is freely rotated and the device is loaded, the sound generating mechanism becomes a rotational resistance, and it becomes impossible to quickly feed the fishing line.

An object of the present invention is to provide a dual-bearing reel having a drag mechanism so that sound can be generated during drag operation without causing rotation resistance during free rotation.

[0008]

A dual bearing reel according to a first aspect of the present invention includes a reel body, a handle member, a spool shaft,
The vehicle includes a spool, a drag mechanism, a transmission mechanism, a clutch mechanism, and a sound generation mechanism. The handle member includes a handle shaft rotatably supported by the reel body.
The spool shaft is arranged in parallel with the handle shaft, and is supported by the reel body so as to be rotatable and movable in the axial direction. The spool is rotatably supported on the spool shaft. The drag mechanism includes a spool shaft moving mechanism that reciprocates the spool shaft with respect to the reel body in the axial direction, a braking member that is non-rotatably mounted on the spool shaft and that can move in the axial direction together with the spool shaft, and a braking member. And a friction member rotatably supported by the spool shaft and capable of pressing against the braking member by axial movement of the spool shaft. The transmission mechanism includes a pinion gear rotatably supported on the spool shaft and rotating integrally with the pressure contact member, and a main gear non-rotatably mounted on the handle shaft and meshing with the pinion gear. The clutch mechanism transmits and blocks the rotation of the spool shaft to the spool. The sounding mechanism sounds by the relative rotation of the braking member and the friction member.

In this dual-bearing reel, when the handle shaft is rotated by the handle, the rotation is transmitted from the main gear to the pinion gear. The power is transmitted from the pinion gear to the friction member, and is transmitted from the friction member to the spool shaft via the braking member. And it is transmitted to a spool from a spool shaft via a clutch mechanism. When the braking member and the friction member are in pressure contact with each other in the drag mechanism and the clutch mechanism is in a power transmission state, the rotation of the handle is transmitted to the spool in this state. On the other hand, when the clutch mechanism is in the power cutoff state, rotation from the spool shaft to the spool is not transmitted, and the spool is in a free rotation state. Further, when the fish catches on the tackle while the clutch mechanism is in the power transmission state and the spool rotates in the line payout direction, the rotation is transmitted to the spool shaft via the clutch mechanism and transmitted from the spool shaft to the braking member. Then, the braking member and the friction member rotate relative to each other. This relative rotation informs the angler that the sounding mechanism is sounding and the dragger is in the operating state. In addition, as described above, when the clutch mechanism is in the power cutoff state, the spool is in a free rotation state, so that there is no resistance due to the sound generation mechanism,
It does not affect free rotation. For this reason, in the dual-bearing reel having the drag mechanism, sound can be generated during drag operation without causing rotation resistance during free rotation.

A dual-bearing reel according to a second aspect of the present invention is the dual-bearing reel according to the first aspect, wherein the drag mechanism further includes a cover member that is non-rotatably mounted on the braking member on the outer peripheral side and covers the friction member facing the friction member. The sound generating mechanism is mounted between the cover member and the friction member. In this case, when the braking member and the friction member rotate relative to each other, the cover member and the friction member that are non-rotatably mounted on the braking member also rotate relative to each other. Since this cover member does not require much strength,
It can be composed of thin members. As a result, when the sounding mechanism mounted between the cover member and the friction member generates sound, the sound resounds and becomes loud.

A dual bearing reel according to a third aspect of the present invention is the dual bearing reel according to the second aspect, wherein the sound generating mechanism includes a sound output pin having a spherical surface at a front end, the sound output pin being mounted on the friction member so as to extend toward the cover member, And a sound output hole formed at a position facing the sound output pin of the cover member and spaced apart in the circumferential direction at a position facing the sound output pin. In this case, when the friction member and the cover member rotate relative to each other, the sounding pin repeatedly collides against the sounding hole by the urging force of the urging member. As a result, a loud sound is generated by the relative rotation. In addition, since the cover member near the outer periphery of the reel is hit from the inside, the number of members that block the sound is reduced, and the sound is louder.

A dual bearing reel according to a fourth aspect of the present invention is the reel of the third aspect, wherein the sound output pin is mounted at an angle of 10 ° to 40 ° upstream in the rotational direction with respect to the axial direction of the friction member. In this case, since the sounding pin is inclined to the upstream side in the rotation direction, the sounding pin can be reliably extended and retracted when the two members rotate relative to each other, and a more crisp sound is generated. Moreover, the thickness of the side for holding the sound output pin can be reduced, and the thickness of the entire drag mechanism can be reduced.

The dual-bearing reel according to the fifth aspect of the present invention includes the dual bearing reel according to the first to fourth aspects.
Wherein the spool shaft moving mechanism comprises: a cap member mounted on one end of the spool shaft so as to be axially non-movable and rotatable; and a drag mounted on the reel body so as to swing about the spool shaft. A lever, a cam member that is non-rotatably mounted on the reel body, is disposed between the drag lever and the cap member, and moves the cap member to one side in the axial direction by swinging the drag lever; An urging member for urging the other side. In this case, when the drag lever is swung in one direction, the cam member moves the cap member to one side of the spool shaft, and the cap member moves the spool shaft to one side in the axial direction. On the other hand, if you drag the drag lever to the opposite side,
The spool shaft is moved to the other side by being urged by the urging member. Here, the cam mechanism can convert the rotational movement into a linear movement in the axial direction, and press the spool shaft with a large force with a small operating force to move the spool shaft in the axial direction.

A dual bearing reel according to a sixth aspect of the present invention is the reel according to the fifth aspect, wherein the cap member is mounted on the spool shaft via a thrust bearing so as to be rotatable and immovable in the axial direction. In this case, since the thrust force between the cap member and the spool shaft is completely received by the thrust bearing, the rotation of the spool shaft is always smooth even when the axial force acts on the spool shaft during drag operation. is there.

A dual bearing reel according to a seventh aspect of the present invention is the reel according to the sixth aspect, wherein the reel is housed in a watertightly sealed space like a seal member by a thrust bearing. In this case, it becomes difficult for seawater to enter the thrust bearing portion, and it is possible to suppress an increase in rotational resistance due to salt adhering to the inside or corrosion of the bearing. A dual-bearing reel according to an eighth aspect of the present invention is the reel according to any one of the first to seventh aspects, further comprising a unidirectional rotation permitting unit that permits only rotation of the handle shaft in the line winding direction. In this case, since the handle shaft can rotate only in the line winding direction, when the handle rotates in the line winding direction, the rotation is transmitted to the spool via the rotation transmission mechanism, the drag mechanism and the clutch mechanism, and the spool is wound. Rotate in the picking direction. On the other hand, even if it is attempted to rotate the handle in the line feeding direction, the handle cannot be rotated in the line feeding direction because the handle shaft does not rotate. When the spool rotates in the line feeding direction, the rotation transmitting mechanism tries to rotate in the line feeding direction via the clutch mechanism and the drag mechanism, but since the handle shaft does not rotate in the line feeding direction,
The drag operates without the friction member connected to the rotation transmission mechanism rotating. As a result, the drag operates according to the force in the extending direction, and generates sound.

The dual-bearing reel according to the ninth aspect is the invention of the first to eighth aspects.
The clutch mechanism according to any one of the above,
A locking member provided on the end face opposite to the mounting side of the drag mechanism of the spool, and a locking member that is axially movable and non-rotatably mounted on the end of the spool shaft opposite to the mounting side of the drag mechanism. It includes a clutch member that can be engaged and disengaged, and a clutch operation mechanism that moves the clutch member in the axial direction.
In this case, when the clutch operating mechanism moves the clutch member in one axial direction, the clutch member is locked by the locking member, the spool shaft and the spool are connected, and rotation is transmitted from the spool shaft to the spool. . Further, when the clutch member is moved to the other side in the axial direction by the operation mechanism and detaches from the locking member, the connection between the spool shaft and the spool is released, and the rotation of the spool shaft is not transmitted to the spool. In this state, the spool enters a free rotation state. Here, the spool can be freely rotated by a simple operation by operating the clutch operation mechanism regardless of the pressed state of the drag mechanism.

This is to display the water depth of the tackle at the tip of the fishing line drawn out from. The operation key unit 17 is used when performing various operations such as a selection operation of a shelf position and a display mode.

A spool 4 is provided inside the reel body 1, as shown in FIGS. Spool 4
Has a bobbin trunk 4a and large-diameter flanges 4b and 4c formed on both sides of the bobbin trunk 4a. The spool 4 is rotatably supported on the spool shaft 5 by bearings 24a and 24b. The spool shaft 5 includes a bearing 21a,

The first one-way clutch 62 allows only the rotation of the handle shaft 31 in the line winding direction. Further, a second one-way clutch 63 of a claw type is also arranged on the handle shaft 31. The second one-way clutch 63 also allows only the rotation of the handle shaft 31 in the line winding direction. The second one-way clutch 63 is arranged between a main gear 60 and a bearing 32 described later. The reason why the two one-way clutches 62 and 63 are provided is that the play at the time of reverse rotation is reduced by the first one-way clutch 62 and the first one-way clutch 6 is operated when the drag mechanism 6 is operated by the second one-way clutch 63.
This is to prevent the handle shaft 31 from reversing even if a strong force exceeding the limit of 2 acts on the handle shaft 31 via the main gear 60.

The handle 3, as shown in FIG. 3, is fixed to the tip of a handle shaft 31. The handle 3 includes an arm member 40 fixed to the distal end of the handle shaft 31 and a rotating member 41 rotatably supported by the distal end of the arm member 40.

The tip of the shaft support 27b is fitted into the portion of the side cover 13b that penetrates the spool shaft 5. An O-ring 49 is mounted between the fitting portion and the side cover 13b. As a result, the thrust bearing 45 is disposed in the watertight space sealed by the O-ring 49, and is less likely to be eroded by seawater or the like.

The cam member 28 is supported by the side cover 13b so as to be non-rotatable and movable in the axial direction. Cam member 28
Has a slope cam on the contact surface with the drag lever 2, and the drag lever 2 is moved to the left in the axial direction in FIG. 5 by, for example, swinging counterclockwise in FIG. 2 to reduce the drag force.
The cam member 28 is connected to a shaft support 27b of the cap member 27 by a screw, and the initial position of the spool shaft 8 in the axial direction can be set by rotating the cap member 27. Thereby, the drag force at the swing start position of the drag lever 2 can be adjusted. In this embodiment, the shaft support 27b and the cam member 28 are connected by reverse screws. That is, in FIG. 3, as the cap member 27 is turned counterclockwise and the screwing between the shaft support 27b and the cam member 28 proceeds, the spool shaft 5 advances to the left side in FIG. 5, and the initial drag force decreases. This is to unify the operation direction of the drag lever 2 and the operation direction of the cap member 27 so that the angler can adjust the drag without feeling uncomfortable.

A first sound generating mechanism 50 is disposed between the cam member 28 and the cap member 27. First sound generator 5

7 are provided. The braking disk 55 is larger than the diameter of the flange portion 4b, which is the diameter of the spool 4 that can be wound, and has a cylindrical portion 55b on the outer periphery. A cover disc 57 is non-rotatably connected to the cylindrical portion 55b. Therefore, the outer diameter of the drag mechanism 6 is larger than the diameter of the spool 4 that can be wound. The friction disk 56 has a smaller diameter than the braking disk 55,
The spool shaft 5 is rotatably supported by a bearing 59. The friction disk 56 meshes with a pinion gear 61 described later on the inner peripheral surface. The movement of the friction disk 56 to the right in the axial direction in FIG. 5 is restricted via the pinion gear 61. Note that the effective diameter of the braking portion 26 (the smaller outer diameter of the braking disk 55 and the friction disk 56) is 90% or more of the spoolable diameter, which is larger than that of the conventional spool. Greater drag power can be obtained compared to the mounted reel.

On the opposing surfaces of the braking disk 55 and the friction disk 56, donut-shaped sliding disks 55a, 56a having substantially the same diameter are mounted so as to be able to press against each other. The sliding disk 55a is made of, for example, a fiber reinforced resin in which a woven fabric of carbon fiber is impregnated with a heat-resistant resin such as a phenol resin. The sliding disk 56a is made of stainless steel. The cover disk 57 is non-rotatably connected to the braking disk 55 on the outer peripheral side, and is disposed so as to cover the friction disk 56 with the braking disk 55.

The sounding pin 66 is a mushroom-shaped shaft with a spherical tip, and is mounted movably in the axial direction in a mounting hole 56b formed on the center side of the mounting portion of the friction disk 56 on which the sliding disk 56a is mounted. As shown in FIG. 6, this mounting hole 56b is open to the cover disk 57 side, and the friction disk 5
6 is formed at an angle α to the upstream side in the rotation direction R with respect to the axial direction. Is preferably in the range of 10 to 40 degrees. As a result, the sounding pin 66 is also attached to the friction disk 56 at the angle α. The coil spring 67
The sound output pin 66 is arranged in a compressed state on the outer peripheral side of the shaft portion. Here, since the sound output pin 66 collides with the cover disk 57 having a relatively small thickness instead of the braking disk 55, a crisp sound is generated. In addition, mounting holes 56
Since b is formed obliquely, the stroke of the sounding pin 66 can be maintained and the thickness of the braking disk 55 can be reduced.

The spool 4 enters a free rotation state, and the fishing line is paid out by its own weight. At this time, no matter what the position of the drag lever 2 is, simply operating the clutch operation lever 75 to the disengagement position causes the clutch mechanism 7 to be in the power cutoff state and the spool 4 to be easily brought into the free rotation state. Can be.

When it is confirmed by the liquid crystal display section 16 that the mechanism has reached a predetermined water depth, the clutch operating lever 75 is operated to the engaged position to bring the clutch mechanism 7 into the power transmission state. When the clutch mechanism 7 is set in the power transmission state, the one-way clutches 62 and 63 inhibit the rotation of the handle shaft 31 in the line let-out direction. Therefore, the reverse rotation of the spool shaft 5 via the drag mechanism 6 and the first rotation transmission mechanism 9a. Is prohibited, and the feeding of the yarn stops. In this state, if fish catches on the device, the spool 4 tends to rotate in the line payout direction due to the fish being pulled. At this time, the fishing line is paid out with a predetermined Drak force set by operating the drag lever 2. When the drag lever 2 is pivoted counterclockwise in FIG. 3, the spool member 5 is moved rightward in FIG. 5 by the cam member 28, so that the braking disk 55 and the friction disk 56 come into strong contact with each other, and the drag force is increased. Becomes larger. On the other hand, drag lever 2
3 is rotated clockwise in FIG. 3, the spool shaft 5 is returned to the left in FIG. 5 by the disc spring 29, the pressing force of the braking disk 55 against the friction disk is reduced, and the two disks 55, 56 are pressed against each other. The power becomes weak and the drag power becomes weak. Then, when the two disks 55 and 56 rotate relative to each other during the drag operation, the sound output pin 66 of the second sound generating mechanism 64 disposed between the friction disk 56 and the cover disk 57 is moved to the cover disk 57. The collision is repeated and a sound is generated between the cover disc 57 and the relatively thin cover disc. As a result, the angler is immediately notified that the drag has been activated.

[Other Embodiments] (a) In the above embodiment, the clutch mechanism is disposed between the side cover and the side plate on the opposite side of the handle. However, the arrangement position of the clutch mechanism is limited to the above embodiment. Not something. (B) In the above embodiment, the second sound output mechanism is disposed between the cover disk and the friction disk. However, the present invention is not limited to this. May be arranged.

[0040]

As described above, according to the present invention,
Since the clutch mechanism is provided between the spool shaft and the spool, the spool can be freely rotated by the clutch mechanism. For this reason, in the dual-bearing reel having the drag mechanism, sound can be generated at the time of drag operation without causing rotation resistance during free rotation.
