Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to a lever switching structure for switching the spool between a free rotation state, a drag state, and a winding state in a fishing reel, especially a double-shaft type reel. It is characterized by being able to be operated with one touch of a lever.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, 1 is the spool shaft and 2 is the spool.

A spool 2 is rotatably fitted loosely between retaining rings 20' and 20' fixed on the spool shaft, and one end of the spool shaft 1 is supported by a bearing 4 provided on the bottom surface of the casing 3 so as to be freely forward and backward. At the same time, a driven gear 6 installed in the gear box 5 is fitted to the other end.

A clutch piece 8 is integrally formed on the inner surface of the gear 6 and is removably engaged with an engaging element 7 protruding from one side of the spool 2.

Reference numeral 9 denotes a lever having an annular base end and pivotably supported on the spool shaft 1, which also serves as a thread guide.
a into the cam groove 10 provided in the housing 3, and connect the spool shaft 1.
The front end is bent into a hook shape and a threading hole 11 is provided.

As shown in FIG. 3, the cam groove 10 is formed so that the lower part 10a is closer to the wall of the housing 3 and the upper part 10b is closer to the outside, and when the lever 9 is located at the lower part 10a, the straight part 9a is formed toward the spool. When the lever 9 is located at the upper part 10b, the lever 9 is separated from the spool 2, and the straight portion 9a is engaged with the protrusion 12. The spool 2 is released from the spool 2 and becomes idle.

13 is a restraining spring for eliminating unnecessary swinging of the lever 9 with a small elastic force, and 14 is a braking spring whose hook-shaped tip abuts against the lever 9.

Reference numeral 15 designates a switching lever mounted on the spool shaft 1 to switch the spool 2 from full to stop depending on the degree of engagement between the engaging element 7 and the clutch piece 8, and is protruded from the housing 3. A knob 16 is provided at one end and loosely fits into a notch 17 provided on the inner edge of the housing 3.

The notch 17 has two stages of engagement holes 17a, 1 extending to one side.
7b is formed so that the switching lever 15 can be engaged with the engagement hole 17a or 17b.

Further, a claw piece 19 made of an elastic material such as a leaf spring is protruded from one side of the switching lever 15 so that the claw piece 19 can be removably engaged with a claw gear 18 provided on the side surface of the spool 2. I have to.

The switching lever 15 is connected to the spool shaft 1 by being interposed between retaining rings 20 and 20' fixed to the spool shaft 1, and the end of the switching lever 15 opposite to the knob 16 is connected to the spool shaft 1. Point supported on the inner peripheral surface.

Further, on the other end side of the spool shaft 1, a spring 21 is interposed on the outer surface of the gear box 5, and an adjustment nut 22 is provided for adjusting the degree of engagement between the engager 7 and the clutch piece 8.
to screw on.

23 is a handle rotation shaft to which a cylindrical cam 24 is attached;
A driving gear 25 that meshes with the driven gear 6 is fixed to one end, and a handle receiving shaft 26 is fixed to the other end, and a handle 28 is attached with screws 27.

A recess 31 is formed in the cylindrical cam 24 so as to fit onto a boss 30 protruding from the inner surface of the gear box body 29.

Incidentally, reference numeral 32 denotes a T-shaped mounting leg integrally formed with the gear box main body 29, and as shown in FIG. 4, the portion to be attached to the fishing rod is formed in an arc shape 33.

Next, to explain the operation, in the first stage of operation to freely let out the fishing line, when the switching lever 16 is engaged with the engagement hole 17a at the deepest part of the notch 17 and placed in the position shown by the solid line in FIG. The switching lever 15 is tilted toward the bearing 4 to pull the spool shaft 1 toward the bearing 4 against the elasticity of the spring 21. At the same time, the spool 2 is pulled and the engager 7 is moved toward the clutch piece 8.
The spool 2 is separated from the spool 2 and becomes freely rotating.

At this time, the claw piece 19 of the switching lever 15 is separated from the claw gear 18.

Next, in the second stage of operation in which the switching lever 15 is engaged with the engagement hole 17b and positioned upright in the center of FIG. It can freely rotate only in the upward direction, and on the other hand, rotation in the direction in which the yarn is unwound is blocked, resulting in a so-called drag state.

In this case, depending on the strong pull of the fish, the claw pieces 19 absorb the force and feed the line little by little.

Furthermore, when the switching lever 15 is removed from the engagement hole 17a or 17b and moved to the position indicated by the chain line on the right in FIG. Since the engaging element 7 is moved toward the gear 6 side, the engaging element 7 engages with the clutch piece 8.

Therefore, the handle rotation shaft 23 and the spool 2 are connected via the drive gear 25, the driven gear 6, the clutch piece 8, and the engager 7, and when the handle 28 is rotated in the forward direction, the spool 2
The third stage of operation is where the thread is wound up.

All of these switching operations can be easily performed with a single touch from your fingertips, and since the spool shaft is supported at both ends, it can withstand large loads.
As mentioned above, the lever switching structure of the present invention has a simple structure, and the switching lever is mounted on the spool shaft close to the spool, and the tip is placed at a position where it is easy to operate. There is a knob, and it is in the free rotation state mentioned above.

The 3-step operation for the drag state and hoisting state can be performed with extremely light fingertip operations, so there is no problem with handling the rod, and the advantage is that it can always be operated as desired in any situation.
