Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to an automatic needle reinforcing device for fishing.

[Conventional technology]

It is well known from the experience of anglers as well as the results of many experiments that the thinner the fishing needle is, the less wary the fish will be.

However, if a large fish is caught using a thin needle, it will be cut off, so anglers have used various devices and fishing techniques to prevent this, but even highly skilled anglers have trouble catching fish. If they entered the area, they would often be cut off by the needles.

In fishing as a hobby, this may not be a problem as it involves competing on fishing techniques, but for fishermen it is a big problem.

In order to solve these problems, the inventor of the present invention previously filed a patent application in 1983.
In No. 208336, we proposed a needle reinforcing device that uses thin needles and automatically reinforces the needles when a large fish is hooked.

That is, a locking body is provided on the root thread (also called chimoto), a needle element equipped with a needle is connected, a reinforcing body slightly longer than the needle element is provided, and the guide thread is passed through the guide body to the reinforcing body. Connected to the rear end 3. A load sensing type locking release means for locking the reinforcing body to the guide thread is provided, and a locking means for locking the tip end to the locking body of the root thread is provided at the tip of the locking release means. was established.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

However, in the above invention, since the reinforcing body is configured to be slightly longer than the needle element, the elongation of the needle element itself is ultimately used to reduce the pulling force of the fish on the hook to the reinforcement body. It is communicated to. Therefore, in this invention, the length of the needle element to be reinforced is limited by the length of the reinforcing body.

However, the needle length is used at an appropriate length starting from about 50 cm, but in general, depending on the preference of the angler and the type of fish, a length of 1 m or 2 to 3 m may be used to suit various conditions. , since the reinforcement becomes very long,
In addition to being inconvenient to carry, the long and heavy reinforcing body increases resistance when operating underwater, making it difficult to expect smooth operation and making it difficult to cast long distances in terms of balance. On the other hand, if you try to use needles with a length of 50 cm or less (which may be effective depending on the species of fish), the above conventional technology ultimately uses the elongation of the needles themselves to transmit force to the reinforcing body. Therefore, it is necessary to accurately plan and assemble the elongation of the needle element of 50 cm or less, and there is also the problem that it is difficult to do this with the needle element of 30 cm or less.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to solve the problems of the prior art described above, the automatic needle element reinforcing device according to the present invention connects a needle 5 to one end of the thread 1 and a needle element 4 to the other end, and connects the needle element 4 to the needle thread 1 and the needle element 4 to the other end. Elementary 4
A locking body 3 is provided at or near the connecting portion with the needle element 4.
A reinforcing body 6 for reinforcing the reinforcing body 6 is made of an elastic linear body, and the guide thread 2 is connected to a part of the reinforcing body 6, and a thin wire is attached to the lower end of the reinforcing body 6 along the approximately axial direction of the reinforcing body 6. An annular body 7 is provided in a protruding manner, and the annular body 7 has a small diameter portion 7A through which the needle element 4 passes, and a large diameter portion continuous with the small diameter portion 7A through which the locking body 3 passes. 7B, at least one first guide ring 8 is provided near the annular body 7 to allow the passage of the needle element 4, and between the first guide ring 8 and the locking body 3. A needle action limiter 9 is loosely fitted to the needle cord 4, and a reinforcing member 6 is provided at the upper end of the reinforcing member 6.
A load sensing type unlocking means 10 that engages the first guide ring 8 by curving the ring is provided.

[Effect]

Therefore, the reinforcing body 6 is bent and the load sensing type locking release means 10 is locked and set to the first guide ring 8, and a large fish hooks and strongly pulls the needle element 4.
When the needle element 4 is subsequently loosened by the approach of a fish or by a release operation after the rod has been adjusted, the load sensing type lock release means 10 is disengaged from the first guide ring 8, and the pressure-accumulating pressure is When the reinforcing body 6 is restored, the needle element 4 whose proximal end is fixed moves within the first guide ring 8 of the reinforcing body 6, is taken in between the upper and lower ends of this reinforcing body 6, and is attached to the above-mentioned engagement. The stopper body 3 passes through the large diameter portion 7B and comes into contact with the first guide ring 8 via the needle operation limiter 9 and stops.
After this, when the fish strongly pulls the needle element 4, the reinforcing body 6 is slightly bent (the needle element 4 itself may stretch), and the locking body 3 comes into contact with the small diameter portion 10A, causing the tip to tighten. The fish attraction force applied to the line 1 is transmitted to the reinforcing body 6 and then to the line 2 connected to this reinforcing body 6. Therefore, the needle element 4
The length of the reinforcing body 6 is not limited by the length of the reinforcing body 6, but it can be made much longer or shorter than before, and fishing can be done with a desired length of the needle element to suit various fishing conditions. .

[First Embodiment] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the needle reinforcing device according to the present invention is constructed as follows.

A needle 5 is connected to one end of the thread 1 (usually kevrate is used), and a needle element 4 is connected to the other end, and a locking body 3 is placed at or near the joint between the thread 1 and the needle element 4. It is a provision. Incidentally, although the seaweed thread 1 is generally made of a material much stronger than needle material and has a large diameter, it is known that it does not cause any alarm to fish.

Further, the needle element 4 may be much thinner than the thickness normally used corresponding to the size of the target fish.

The locking body 3 is constituted by a knot between the thread 1 and the needle element 4, but other suitable materials such as beads or ceramic grains may be used. Reference numeral 6 denotes a reinforcing body for reinforcing the needle element 4, which is made of a stainless steel wire that is shorter than the needle element 4 and has elasticity itself.

The reinforcing body 6 may be made of other materials such as piano wire or glass fiber, as long as it itself has elasticity. The reinforcing body 6 is connected with a guide thread 2 near its lower end, and further has a ring-shaped body 7 protruding from the lower end of the reinforcing body 6 along its axial direction. . This annular body 7 is composed of a small diameter part 7A through which the needle element 4 passes, and a large diameter part 7B which is continuous with the small diameter part 7A and through which the locking body 3 passes. or,
The ends of the annular body 7 are fixed to the reinforcing body 6 by caulking with clips and soldering, but any suitable attachment means may be used. Further, near the annular body 7 of the reinforcing body 6, a first guide ring 8 made of a similar stainless steel wire in a ring shape is arranged perpendicularly to the reinforcing body 6 so as to allow the passage of the needle element 4. A needle element operation limiter 9 is loosely fitted to the needle element 4 between the first guide ring 8 and the locking body 3.

This needle operation limiter 9 is constructed by making a small hole in a plastic plate, the plastic plate has a larger diameter than the first guide ring 8, and the small hole is larger than the first guide ring 8. It is also small in diameter. As for the material and shape of the needle action limiter 9, any suitable material may be selected as long as it has the above configuration, and for example, a spherical body may be used. A load sensing type unlocking means 10 is provided at the upper end of the reinforcing body 6 and engages with the first guide ring 8 by curving the reinforcing body 6.
Although a similar stainless steel wire is bent and a hook is formed in a part thereof as shown in the figure, it is also possible to construct it separately and attach it to the upper end of the reinforcing body 6.

Furthermore, in addition to the first guide ring 8, two second, third, and fourth guide rings 11 are provided at the upper and lower ends of the reinforcing body 6, respectively.
- 12 and 13 are provided in pairs with a little distance (about 1 cm) from each other, and the fourth, third, and second guide rings 11 are connected from the base end of the needle element 4 connected near the lower end of the reinforcement body 6・
12 are sequentially folded back so that the tip of the needle element 4 passes through the first guide ring 8.

As mentioned above, the guide thread 2 passes through the hole of the guide body 14 provided approximately in the middle of the reinforcement body 6, and its one end is fixed to the lower end of the reinforcement body 6, and the other end is untwisted. It is connected to a fishing rod (not shown) via an appropriate wire. This path 2
Keprat is used for the area from the lower end of the reinforcing body 6 to the monkey ring to be untwisted, but ordinary large-numbered threads may also be used. In addition, by fixing a so-called tobashi metal fitting to the monkey ring and connecting the tobashi across the reinforcing body 6, there is no need to operate the load-sensing lock release means 10 each time a small fish is hooked. To avoid this problem, the locking function may be used as a substitute for this load sensing type unlocking means, or may be used in combination.

Furthermore, a sulper (untwisted) is usually attached near the tip of the thread, but if a long reinforcing body corresponding to a conventional long needle element (2 to 3 m) is used, the required position of the sac and the rear end of the reinforcing body can be adjusted. If the length becomes long and the line is wound around the fishing rod after operation, the monkey can collide with the tip of the rod quickly, damaging the tip of the rod (guide or snake mouth), but this problem does not occur in this embodiment. be.

As shown in FIG. 4, the annular body 7 has a large diameter portion 7B.
is slightly curved and deviates from the axial direction of the reinforcing body 6, and the tip of the small diameter portion 7A is located substantially beyond the axial line of the reinforcing body 6, thereby making it possible for large fish to be hooked. When the load sensing type unlocking means 10 is activated, the needle element 4 is released from the annular body 7.
The small diameter portion 7A on the end side is made relatively movable, and when the lrI reinforcing body 6 hits the locking body 3 provided on the thread 1, the locking body 3, which is a knot, connects to the annular body 7. It slides on the side surface of the hole and moves to the large diameter portion 7B following the small diameter portion 7A, making it easy to pass through this hole and securely retaining the small diameter portion 7A when engaged.

The reinforcing body 6 and the annular body 7 may be constructed separately and connected and fixed, or may be constructed by integral molding of synthetic resin.

(Second Embodiment) As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, this embodiment has the same basic configuration as the first embodiment, but has been modified in the following points.

First, when constructing the reinforcing body 6, the approximately middle portion thereof is approximately 1
The ring-shaped spring portion 6A is formed by regenerative winding to increase the accumulated force of the reinforcing body 6. As a result, when the load sensing type unlocking means 10 is activated, the reinforcing body 6 It can be expected that the recovery speed can be increased and that the action of protecting the needle element 4 in water with high resistance can be performed reliably and smoothly.

Further, this ring-shaped spring portion 6A is used in place of the guide body 14 in the previous embodiment, and the line 2 is passed through it and tied to a fishing rod (via a monkey ring as appropriate).

Next, only another second guide ring 11 is provided in addition to the first guide ring 8J/l provided at the upper and lower ends of the reinforcing body 6. That is, only one first guide ring 8 provided at the lower end of the reinforcing body 6 is used, and only one second guide ring 11 is provided at the upper end of the reinforcing body 6. The first and second guide rings 8 and 11 are used repeatedly. In other words, as shown in FIG.
Use it often.

It is preferable to provide a partition in the middle of the first guide ring 8 to prevent the needle element 4 from becoming entangled with the hook of the load-sensing unlocking means 10. In addition, a similar intermediate section is provided in the other second guide ring 11 to prevent the needle element 4 from rubbing against the previous needle element 4 part and the turned-back part of the needle element 4, thereby making the relative movement of the needle element 4 smooth. It may be configured to do so.

Furthermore, by attaching a weight to one side of the reinforcing body 6 when it is set in a curved manner (a float may be attached to the other side), it can be made to have a balance effect for long distance casting, The ring-shaped spring part 6A can be weighted and a guide ring for guiding the guide thread 2 can be provided on the ring-shaped spring part 6A to exert a balance action.

In addition, the number of the first guide ring 8 to the fourth guide ring may be limited to the first guide ring 8, or the number of the first guide ring 8 may be increased.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to the automatic needle element reinforcing device of the present invention, when a large fish hooks while the thin needle element makes it easier for fish to approach, the device has the effect of reinforcing the thin needle element while also reinforcing the needle element. The length of the needle element can be set without being limited by the length of the reinforcing body itself, and a needle element that is much longer or shorter than the conventional automatic needle reinforcement device proposed by the present inventor can be used. This has resulted in it having both functions and effects.

Furthermore, when a fish is hooked and the unlocking means is disengaged, the elastic return of the reinforcing body can be expected to quickly and reliably hook the fish onto the hook, which is even more advantageous.

Moreover, since the reinforcing body itself is short, it is convenient to carry, and has the advantage of being well-balanced, making it easy to cast over long distances.
