Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] Conventional drag adjustment devices for double-bearing reels, as seen in Japanese Patent Publication No. 16319/1983, use a lever adjustment method and a dial method for fine adjustment, so both can be adjusted at the same time. It has the defect that it cannot be operated and cannot quickly perform drag braking over a wide range.

For example, when lowering a tackle into deep water, such as when fishing in deep water on a boat, both operating members are operated to minimize the drag braking forces on both sides to quickly lower the tackle and the tackle reaches a predetermined water depth. Therefore, it is necessary to brake the spool to prevent the fishing line from collapsing while quickly lowering the tackle to a predetermined water depth.

In addition, if the setting range of the drag braking force using the preset fine-adjustment operation member is too large for the fish on the hook to resist the strong pull, or when the fish on the hook is too small and the spool braking force is too strong, use the adjustment After reducing the drag braking force using the operating member, set the setting range of the drag braking force using the fine adjustment operating member to be larger or smaller, and then increase the drag braking force again using the adjusting operating member to quickly respond to the pull of the fish. must be operated.

When these two operating members must be operated simultaneously or sequentially, the conventional lever operation and dial operation have different rotation methods and rotation ranges, so it is not possible to respond quickly and easily, especially when dial operation is performed using the thumb. Not only do you have to pinch and rotate the reel with your index and middle fingers, but when you operate the dial, your palm moves away from the reel side plate, making it unstable to hold the reel.
There is a defect that prevents smooth fishing operations.

The present invention has been developed to improve such defects, and includes a braking member between the braking case, which is axially freely attached to the tip of the spool shaft, and the spool side plate, which is rotatably supported on the spool shaft. In a double-bearing reel for fishing, in which the base end of the spool shaft is pressed through a bearing to frictionally connect the spool shaft and the spool, the front surface of the base end of the spool shaft is in contact with the bearing. A cylindrical body that is in contact with and has a fine adjustment cam formed on the rear surface is fitted, and a bearing case that is fitted on the outside of the bearing and is movable only in the axial direction is provided with engaging protrusions on the inside and the outside, respectively. The engagement protrusion of the above is brought into contact with the fine adjustment cam, and the outer engagement protrusion is brought into contact with the cam surface of the front end of the cam cylinder fitted on the outside of the bearing case, and the outer end of the cylinder is brought into contact with the fine adjustment cam. The gist is that an adjustment operation lever and an adjustment operation lever are provided on the outer end of the cam cylinder and adjacent to each other on the outside of the reel side plate on the handle side so that they rotate in an arc shape in approximately the same range as each other. It is.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. A spool shaft 4 is rotatably supported on reel side plates 1 and 2 via bearings 3 and 3.
A pinion 7 rotatably supported at 6 and integrally formed on the side of the reel side plate 1 meshes with a drive gear 9 of a rotating shaft 8 pivotally supported on the reel side plate 1.

Further, a brake case 11 is provided at the tip of the spool shaft 4, and is fitted freely in the axial direction and is locked with a locking pawl 10 so as not to reverse rotation.
As is well known, brake washers 13, 13, .
3, 13, . . . to the spool 5 via friction.

Further, a cylinder 16 whose front surface is in contact with the bearing 3 and a fine adjustment cam 14 is formed on the rear surface is fitted onto the spool shaft 4 on the outside of the bearing 3 on the side of the reel side plate 1, and at the outer end of the cylinder 16. Fine adjustment lever 1
A bearing case 17 that is fitted on the outside of the bearing 3 is provided with a pin 19 that projects outwardly and a pin 20 that projects inwardly, and the pin 19 is fixed to the reel side plate 1. The pin 20 is slidably engaged with the engagement groove of the bearing cylinder 21 and is in contact with a cam surface formed on the front surface of the cam cylinder 18, and the pin 20 is in contact with the surface of the fine adjustment cam 14.

An adjustment operation lever 23 is engaged with the outer end of the cam cylinder 18, and a knob 24 fixed to the adjustment operation lever 23 is attached to a locking hole 24 of a semi-annular locking plate 25 fixed to the reel side plate 1. The knob 29 of the adjustment operation lever 15 is also pressed into contact with the locking hole 31 of the plate disc 30 fixed to the reel side plate 1 through the spring 27 and the ball 28 so that the rotation locking position can be maintained. 32 and spring 3
3 so as to be able to maintain the rotation locking position, and is formed to be freely rotatable in an arc shape in approximately the same range as the adjustment operating lever 23. In the figure, 34 is a rotating handle, 35 is a washer, and 36 is a plate cover.

Since the embodiment of the present invention is constructed as described above, when the adjustment operation lever 23 is rotated, the cam cylinder 18 moves the bearing case 17, the pins 19, 20, and the fine adjustment cam 14 according to the degree of rotation. It presses the bearing 3 through the spool shaft 4 and the spool 5, and adjusts the degree of pressure of the spool 5 against the brake washers 13, 13, . . . to perform drag braking over a wide range. When the fine-adjustment operating lever 15 is rotated, the fine-adjustment cam 14 directly presses the bearing 3 slightly according to the degree of rotation, thereby slightly adjusting the friction transmission force to the spool 5 and the brake washers 13, 13, . . . By doing drag braking in a small range and then rotating both in the same direction at the same time, it is possible to quickly adjust the drag over a wider range.

In this invention, both the wide-range adjustment and fine-adjustment operations of the drag at the base end of the spool shaft are performed using a lever rotation system, which allows for free rotation of approximately the same range in an arc shape adjacent to each other. Not only can the dynamic adjustment operation be made smooth and easy, but especially by being able to quickly and easily turn both operating levers simultaneously or sequentially with a single finger, it is possible to quickly and easily adjust the drag braking force over a wide range while holding the reel securely. Do it smoothly,
This makes it easy to perform appropriate and flexible fishing operations depending on the fishing situation, and the braking status can be easily checked by the set position of both operating levers, which is an advantage that cannot be expected from the combination of the conventional lever method and dial method. It has excellent features and practicality.
