Preferably, an outer layer or an inner layer of the reel pressed hood is constructed with a prepreg having a woven cloth-like fibers.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to a reel leg fixing device for a fishing rod.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Japanese Unexamined Utility Model Publication No. Sho 62-27470 discloses a technique in which an annular reel leg crimping hood is provided on a grip portion of a fishing rod for pressing and fixing a reel leg in a radial direction of the fishing rod to fix the reel leg. Have been. Incidentally, the reel leg crimping hood used here is formed of a material such as metal or synthetic resin.

[0003]

However, those made of metal not only have an unfavorable cold hand, but also have a heavy weight, which hinders rod handling.

Further, in the case of a synthetic resin, if the strength is to be set to a high level, the thickness must be increased, so that not only the grip feeling is bad and the operability is adversely affected, but also the shape is easily deformed. The problem is that the reel legs are easy to loosen.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been proposed in view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and has as its object to provide a reel leg fixing device which is lightweight, thin, easy to grip, and easy to operate.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION According to the present invention, a reel leg crimping hood for fixing a reel leg mounted on a peripheral surface of a grip portion of a fishing rod by pressing in a radial direction of the fishing rod is thermoset synthetic reinforced fiber. It is formed of a prepreg impregnated with a resin. Further, the present invention provides a reel leg crimping hood for pressing and fixing a reel leg mounted on a peripheral surface of a grip portion of a fishing rod in a radial direction of the fishing rod with a prepreg in which a reinforcing fiber is impregnated with a thermosetting synthetic resin. The fiber is formed so that the number of fibers in the circumferential direction is larger than that in the axial direction.

Further, the present invention is characterized in that the outer layer or the inner layer of the reel crimping hood is made of a prepreg having woven fabric-like fibers.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. As shown in FIG.
The ring hood 1, which is a reel leg crimping hood in the reel leg fixing device for a fishing rod of the present invention, has an annular shape having a predetermined width in the longitudinal direction, and like the conventional ring hood,
As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the reel leg 4 is placed and fixed on the peripheral surface of the grip 3 at the end of the rod tube 2 on the side of the rod end. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1a denotes a tapered portion formed at the end on the inner peripheral surface side for engaging and holding the front and rear ends of the mounting portion of the reel leg 4 shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. Things. By the tapered portion 1a, the reel leg 4 is fixedly held on the peripheral surface of the grip 3 in an engaged state. That is, as can be seen from FIG. 3, the ring hood 1 is inclined to form a gap between the ring hood 1 and the grip 3, and the reel leg 4
Insert the end of the mounting section. At this time, the inner peripheral surface of the tapered portion on the side opposite to the side on which the reel leg 4 is fixed is brought into close contact with the outer peripheral surface of the grip 3 and is fixed on the grip 3. As shown in FIG. 3, the end surface of the ring hood 1 opposite to the tapered portion 1a is cut into the peripheral surface of the grip 3 to fix the position in the longitudinal direction, and the reel leg is stably held. It can be fixed and held.

The ring hood 1 of the present invention is formed of a prepreg in which a reinforcing fiber is impregnated with a thermosetting synthetic resin.
Preferably, the fibers are formed so that the number of fibers in the circumferential direction is larger than that in the axial direction.

The reinforcing fibers used here are high-strength fibers such as glass fibers, carbon fibers, and amide resin fibers.

As the thermosetting synthetic resin, a resin such as phenol, polyester, epoxy or the like is used.

FIG. 4 shows an example of the state of manufacture of the ring hood 1 according to the present invention, in which fibers are directed to the outer peripheral surface of a straight mandrel 6 by turning the fibers alternately in the axial and circumferential directions.
The decorative plain woven sheet 12 for improving the appearance is wound thereon. In addition, the plain weave sheet 12 for makeup is not essential, and instead, it may be thread-coated.

The size of the ring hood 1 is determined by the size of the grip diameter of the fishing rod used. For example, the outer diameter is 26 mm and the total length is 20 m.
m, the longitudinal dimension of the thick part is 5 mm, and the thickness is 3 mm.

FIG. 5 shows a second embodiment of the present invention. A ring member 8 made of a flexible material such as rubber is attached to the inside of a tapered portion of a ring hood 1, and a reel leg is provided. This effectively prevents rattling and protects the reel legs. The attachment of the ring member 8 to the ring hood 1 is performed by bonding. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. The hole 15 for fitting the projection 81 may be formed. Further, it may be based on another mounting method.

FIG. 6 shows that a small diameter screwing projection 33 is formed at the end of the grip portion 3, and a screw hole 95 for screwing with the screwing projection 33 is formed in the grip end 9. deep.
Thereby, the grip end 9 can be easily removed, and the ring hood 1 can also be easily removed.

[0016]

As described above, according to the present invention, since the reel leg crimping hood is formed of a fiber-cured resin, it does not have a cold touch like metal, and is thin and has a lightweight grip feeling. The reel leg fixing device is excellent in operability and excellent in operability.

Further, since the prepreg of the present invention has a large number of fibers in the same direction, even if it is thin, it is easily deformed in the radial direction, and there is no loosening of the reel legs, so that it can be stably fixed and held.

If the outer layer is wound with woven fibers, the appearance is improved.
