DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a braking mechanism, and more particularly, to a braking mechanism such as a drag mechanism or a casting control mechanism which rotates relative to reel components such as a handle shaft and a reel body provided on a dual bearing reel. The present invention relates to a dual-bearing reel braking operation mechanism for adjusting the braking force of the reel.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, a dual-bearing reel includes a handle,
A reel body on which the spool is rotatably supported, a spool rotation handle arranged on the side of the reel body,
A star drag (an example of a braking operation mechanism) arranged on the reel body side of the handle for drag adjustment. The handle arm of the handle is fixed to the tip of the handle shaft with a nut, and a retainer for preventing the nut from rotating is screwed to the outer surface of the handle arm. The star drag is screwed to the handle shaft, and by turning the star drag, the degree of close contact of a drag plate (an example of a braking mechanism) provided inside the reel body can be adjusted to adjust the drag force.

[0003] In this type of dual-bearing reel, there is conventionally known a reel provided with a sound generating mechanism for generating sound when the star drag is operated between the star drag and the handle arm. A conventional sound generating mechanism includes a sound output pin housed in a retainer mounted on a handle, a sound output member non-rotatably mounted on a star drag, and a coil spring for urging the sound output pin toward the sound output member. Have. The sound output pin has a head and a shaft portion smaller in diameter than the head, and is arranged along the handle axis with the head facing the sound output member. The sound output pin passes through a through hole provided in the handle arm and is housed in the through hole and the retainer. A large number of sound output holes are formed in the sound output member at positions facing the sound output pins at intervals in the circumferential direction. The sounding member is mounted on the star drag movably in the axial direction. The coil spring is arranged outside the sounding pin, and has one end in contact with the head of the sounding pin.

In this sound generating mechanism, when the star drag is operated to rotate the handle relative to the handle, the sound output pin urged toward the sound output member repeatedly emits a collision with the sound output hole.

[0005]

In the above-mentioned conventional configuration,
For example, if you remove the retainer to disassemble the handle,
Of the sound generating mechanism, the sound output pin and the coil spring housed in the retainer and the through hole jump out of the handle arm and are easily disassembled. Since the sounding pin and the coil spring are very small parts, if they come off, it is sometimes difficult to find them out.

Therefore, it is conceivable to provide a sound generating mechanism in the star drag. However, even if the sound generating mechanism is provided in the star drag, the same problem as described above occurs in a configuration in which the sound generating mechanism is disassembled when the star drag is disassembled. An object of the present invention is to prevent the sounding mechanism from being disassembled even when the member on which the sounding mechanism is mounted is disassembled.

The storage member 57 is a cylindrical member having a large-diameter flange portion 57a formed on the handle 2 side. Storage member 57
A through hole 57b through which the spool shaft 16 penetrates is formed at the center of the fan shaft, and a fan-shaped protrusion 6 formed at the tip of the boss 6c and protruding toward the handle 2 at the outer peripheral side of the through hole 57b.
e is formed with a sector-shaped locking hole 57c that engages with the e. Further, a round hole 57d is formed on the outer peripheral side of the through hole 57b substantially symmetrical with the locking hole 57c.

The screw member 58 is a ring-shaped member.
A male screw part 58a having the same size as the male screw part 6d is formed on the outer peripheral surface. On the inner peripheral surface of the screw member 58, a pressing portion 58b having a smaller diameter than the flange portion 57a and abutting on the flange portion 57a is formed. The sound output pin 59 has the same configuration as the sound output pin 47 of the first sound generation mechanism 34, and is housed in the round hole 57d so as to be able to move forward and backward. The sounding pin 59 has a hemispherical convex head 59a having a smooth tip, a receiving portion 59b formed to be continuous with the head 59a and having a larger diameter than the head 59a, and a receiving portion 59b formed to be connected to the receiving portion 59b. And a shaft portion 59c having a smaller diameter. The head 59a is urged by the coil spring 60 and can contact the sounding hole 55a. The coil spring 60 is disposed on the outer peripheral side of the shaft portion 59c and has one end at the head 5
The other end of 9a is in contact with the bottom wall of the round hole 57d.

In this case, the sound output pin 59 is
The sounding member 55 and the housing member 57 are housed in the braking cap 52 with the coil spring 60 housed, and the screw member 58 is screwed into the braking cap 52 so that the sounding member 55 cannot rotate inside the braking cap 52 and The storage member 57 is mounted on the brake cap 52 so as to be rotatable and immovable in the axial direction. Moreover, the sound output pin 59 is closed by the sound output member 55 and does not fall off. For this reason, even if the braking cap 52 is removed from the boss 6c, the second sounding mechanism 53 is not disassembled.

In addition, the second sounding mechanism 53 is connected to the spool shaft 1
Since the sound output member 55 is arranged on the outer peripheral side of the boss portion 6c so as to be non-rotatable on the braking knob 52, the radial and axial dimensions of the casting control mechanism 22 can be kept small. Therefore, the casting control mechanism 22 having a sound generating function can be arranged in a relatively narrow space limited by the star drag 3 and the handle shaft 30.

As shown in FIG. 3, the centrifugal brake mechanism 23 includes a brake case 65, a rotating portion 66 provided in the brake case 65, and a radially arranged Slider 67 movably mounted
And A cylindrical brake liner 65 a that can contact the slider 67 is fixed to the inner peripheral surface of the brake case 65. The brake case 65 is detachably attached to a circular opening 5d formed in the side plate 5a, and swings together with the first side cover 6a.

Next, a method of operating the reel will be described.
In a normal state, the clutch yoke 40 is
3, the pinion gear 32 is moved to the engagement position.
In this state, the meshing portion 32b of the pinion gear 32 meshes with the engagement pin 16b of the spool shaft 16, and the clutch is turned on. The rotational force from the handle 2 is applied to the handle shaft 30, the main gear 31, and the pinion gear 32. The rotation is transmitted to the spool 12 via the spool shaft 16, and the spool 12 rotates in the line winding direction.

When performing casting, the braking force is adjusted in order to suppress backlash. Here, it is preferable to adjust the braking force according to the mass of the lure (device), for example. Specifically, when the mass of the lure is large, the braking force is increased, and when it is small, the braking force is decreased.
The adjustment of the braking force for suppressing the backlash is performed by the casting control mechanism 22 or the centrifugal brake mechanism 2.
Perform in step 3. When the braking force is adjusted by the casting control mechanism 22, the braking cap 52 is rotated, for example, clockwise. Then, the braking cap 52 screwed to the male screw portion 6d moves forward to the left in FIG. 6, the distance between the friction plates 51 is reduced, and the braking force on the spool shaft 16 is increased.
On the other hand, when it is rotated counterclockwise, the braking force is weakened. When the braking cap 52 is rotated in this manner, the sound output member 55 rotates together with the braking cap 52. On the other hand, since the sound output pin 59 stored in the storage member 57 locked to the boss 6c does not rotate, the sound output pin 59 repeatedly collides with the sound output hole 55a to generate sound.

After adjusting the braking force, the clutch lever 17 is pushed downward. Here, the clutch lever 17 is
It moves to the detached position below along the long holes of the side plates 5a and 5b. The movement of the clutch lever 17 causes the clutch yoke 40 to move outward, and the pinion gear 32 engaged with the clutch yoke 40 to move in the same direction. As a result, the meshing portion 32b of the pinion gear 32 is disengaged from the engagement pin 16b of the spool shaft 16, and the clutch is turned off. In this clutch-off state, rotation from the handle shaft 30 is not transmitted to the spool 12 and the spool shaft 16, and the spool 12 enters a free rotation state. When the clutch is in the off state, the reel is tilted in the axial direction so that the spool shaft 16 is along the vertical plane while the spool is being thumbed by the thumb on the clutch lever 17, and the fishing rod is shaken.
The lure is thrown, and the spool 12 vigorously rotates in the line payout direction.

In such a state, the rotation of the spool 12 causes the spool shaft 16 to rotate in the line feeding direction, and the rotation is transmitted to the rotating member 66. When the rotation member 66 rotates, the slider 67 slides on the brake liner 65a, and the centrifugal brake mechanism 23 brakes the spool 12. At the same time, the spool shaft 16 is braked by the casting control mechanism 22 to prevent backlash.

When the device arrives, the handle 2 is rotated. Then, the clutch is turned on by a return mechanism (not shown). In this state, for example, retrieving is repeated to wait for a fish hit. When the fish hits, the handle 2 is rotated to wind up the fishing line. At this time, it may be necessary to adjust the drag force depending on the size of the fish. At this time, the star drag 3 is rotated clockwise or counterclockwise to adjust the drag force. When the star drag 3 is rotated, the nut portion 36 moves forward and backward in the axial direction, and the drag force changes. At this time, the sound output member 37 is
Does not rotate. For this reason, the sounding pin 47 repeatedly collides with the sounding hole 37a.

On the other hand, the star drag 3 for cleaning or other reasons.
When disassembling, first, the screw 2e is removed, and the handle arm 2a is removed from the handle shaft. Then the nut 2d
Is removed from the handle shaft 30, and the seat plate 2c is removed.
When the seat plate 2c is removed, the operation portion main body 35 of the star drag 3 can be removed from the handle shaft 30. At this time, since the sound output member 37 is attached by the spring member 39 so as not to drop off from the operation section main body 35, the first
The sound generating mechanism 34 does not disassemble. In order to disassemble the first sound generation mechanism 34, the spring member 39 is connected to the operation section main body 35.
Remove it from.

Also, a casting control mechanism 2
When disassembling 2, the brake cap 52 is first rotated counterclockwise and removed from the boss 6c. In this state, the storage member 57 is moved by the screw member 58 so that the braking cap 5
The second sound generating mechanism 53 is not disassembled because it is mounted so as not to fall off from the second sound generating mechanism 2. The second sounding mechanism 5
3 can be disassembled by removing the screw member 58 from the braking cap 52.

(B) In the above embodiment, the drag mechanism and the casting control mechanism have been described as examples, but the present invention can be applied to other braking mechanisms.

(C) The arrangement of the sound output pin and the sound output member is not limited to the above embodiment.

[0057]

According to the present invention, the first member of the sound generating mechanism is mounted on the adjusting operation portion so as not to be movable in the axial direction, and the second member is mounted in a state where the first member prevents the first member from falling off. Even when the adjusting operation section is disassembled, both members of the sound generating mechanism do not come off. For this reason, even if the adjustment operation unit is disassembled, the sound generation mechanism does not disassemble.
