Description

The invention relates to fishing, namely to the design of devices that improve the efficiency of fishing, and is intended for people with disabilities.

A device is known (described in patent RU 2029469 C1, “Self-hooker for fish”), consisting of a stand with a bar, a rocker arm and a lever with an elastic element.

Its disadvantage is the presence of elastic elements in it, which over time lose their elastic properties.

A device is known, described in application for invention No. 2003104292 “Tackle for fishing”, including a magnet, an elastic element in the body and double-armed levers.

Its disadvantage is the complexity of operating the device. Fishing devices that allow people with impaired coordination of movements to automatically hook large fish during a bite have not been identified.

The objective of the invention is to create a design that allows people with limited physical capabilities to hook fish by increasing the efficiency of the mechanism.

The technical result of the invention is a new property of the self-hooking device, namely: increasing the efficiency of fish catching by bringing the hooking device closer to the biting place, using an inert body filled with water as a support for the self-having mechanism, as well as using an inert body to reduce the effort of jerking the caught fish onto the fishing tackle.

Achieving the stated technical result and, as a consequence, solving the problem is achieved by the fact that the underwater self-hooking device includes a cord, a body, and a leash with hooks and bait, thrown into the water. The housing has holes that serve to fill the housing with water and act as a shock absorber. The body contains a trigger mechanism, consisting of a spring with a latch, an axis with a key, and a lever connected by a fishing line to a tensioned leash. On the body there is a scale showing the angle of rotation of the lever, on which there are several holes made with the ability to adjust the force required to rotate the axis with the key before the device is activated by releasing the latch from the axis using the key. There are several rings installed on the leash, made with the ability to adjust the force of hooking the fish.

And also a method of catching fish with an underwater self-hook, in which, to catch fish with strong jaws, the fishing line is attached to a tensioned leash without sagging, and the fish is hooked at the beginning of the movement of the spring. To catch fish with weak jaws, the fishing line is attached to a tensioned leash with slack, and the fish is hooked at the end of the movement of the spring. The fish hooking time is set by turning the lever and is set on a scale marked on the body. Adjustment of the force of the fish, causing the trigger mechanism to operate, is carried out by changing the junction of the leash with the lever. Reducing or increasing the inert mass of the housing is done by opening or closing holes on the housing.

In fig. 1 - shows a general view of the device in working condition; in fig. 2 - shows a diagram of the latch installation, section A-A in Fig. 1; in fig. 3 - shows a diagram of connecting the leash to the lever, top view in Fig. 1.

The device for hooking fish consists of a body 1 with several holes 2, which serve to fill the body 1 with water and act as a shock absorber. Inside the body 1 there is a spring 3 and a weight 4. The body 1 is connected on one side to the cord 5, on the other side there is a trigger device consisting of an axis 6 with a key 7. A latch 8 and a lever 9 with a leash 10 are engaged on the axis 6. Axle 6 rotates in the holes of the housing 1 and is fixedly connected to the key 7 and the lever 9. The lever 9 has several holes 15, which serve for fastening the driver 10 and regulate the distance of rotation of the axis 6 with the key 7 before the device is activated, by releasing the latch 8 from the axis 6 using keys 7, and several rings 11 are installed on the leash 10, which regulate the force of hooking fish. Hooks with bait are installed on a leash 10 with rings 11 (not shown in the figure). On the body 1, near the lever 9, there is a scale 12 showing the angle of rotation of the lever 9. The latch 8 is attached to one of the rings 11 through a line 13. The body 1 is closed with a lid 14 with a hole.

The device works as follows.

The fisherman on the shore puts bait on the hooks, then unscrews the cap 14, pulls the spring 3 by the fishing line 13 and engages the latch 8 on the axis 6 opposite the key 7. A leash 10 with baited hooks and rings 11 is tied to the lever 9 by one of the holes 15, a fishing line 13 is attached to one of the rings 11. The short end (pointer) of the lever 9 is placed on one of the divisions of the scale 12. Using the lid 14, the axis 6 is pressed against the walls of the axial hole made in the body 1, protecting the axis 6 from falling out. A cord 5 is tied to body 1 and thrown into a pond. Under the action of the load 4, the body 1 is filled with water through the holes 2 and is installed at the bottom with the lever 9 upward. Housing 1, filled with water, serves as an inert support for spring 3.

The cutting process occurs as follows.

The fish, having grabbed the bait with the hook, pulls the leash 10, which turns the lever 9 with the bis axis fixedly fixed on it by the key 7. The key 7 pushes the latch 8 from the axis 6, the spring 3 is compressed and transmits the force (hook) through the fishing line 13 to the leash 10 s hooks. Approaching hooks on a leash 10 with a hooking mechanism allows you to quickly catch fish. The caught fish drags a body 1 filled with water, which softens (absorbs) the jerks of the fish, thanks to the holes 2 through which water can pour out.

The method of application is to select fish of certain sizes and species by adjusting the self-hooking device.

For catching fish with strong jaws (pike, pike perch, perch, sleeper) for which a sharp, strong hook is required, the self-hook is adjusted as follows. In the tensioned state of the leash 10, its length (from the lever 9 to the place of engagement of the line 13 with the ring 11) must be equal to the length of the line 13 (in a tense state, to the place of engagement with the ring 11), by the amount of the rotation path of the lever 9, after which the latch 8 is released from the shaft 6. At the moment of biting, the fish pulls the lever 9 by the leash 10, turns it together with the axis 6 and the key 7 until the latch 8 begins to be reset. During the reset, the fishing line 13 is in a weakly tensioned state, the spring 3 is compressed , the fishing line 13 is pulled by a leash 10 with a hook located in the fish’s mouth. Hard hooking occurs at the beginning of the movement of spring 3, when the force from it is greatest and this contributes to greater penetration of the hook into the jaw of the fish.

To catch fish with weak jaws (bleak, roach, crucian carp) that require a weak hook (so as not to tear the mouth), the hook is done at the end of the movement of spring 3, when the force from it is less and the hook will not tear the fish’s jaw. For soft hooking, fishing line 13 is hooked onto the nearest ring 11 or the middle, while the leash 10 is pulled by fishing line 13 at the end of the movement of spring 3.

The cutting time (from the moment the leash 10 begins to move until the latch 8 is released from the shaft 6 by the key 7) is set by turning the lever 9 and is set on a scale 12. When the lever 9 is turned towards the leash 10 with hooks, the distance of movement of the lever 9 before the latch is released is shorter and, therefore, cutting time is less. When lever 9 is turned towards body 1, the movement of the lever is longer and the time before cutting is longer.

For selective fishing (for example, fishing only for large fish), when there are several hooks on a leash with different baits for different fish, then only the one that is larger and tugs harder is hooked. Adjustment of the bite force is made by tying the leash to one of the holes 15, that is, adjustment the length of the lever 9. The longer the lever 9, which means the force exerted by the fish to turn the lever 9 is less. With a short lever 9, more force must be applied to turn the lever 9. Additional force on the lever 9 is created by tightly screwing the cover 14, which allows the axis 6 to be pressed harder against the walls of the axial hole, increasing the friction force.

To soften the jerks of large fish and reduce the risk of damage to the fishing tackle, holes 2 are opened or closed in the body 1. Increasing the number of holes 2 allows water to flow out of the body 1 faster (reducing the inert mass of the hooker), which absorbs the jerks of the fish and tires it, and reducing the holes, for example, by sealing with a film (not shown in the figure), it increases the inert mass of water in body 1, not allowing water to freely pour out and making it harder for the fish to drag body 1.

The proposed invention is easy to use, easy to manufacture, convenient.

Currently, the device is at the prototype stage and is being tested.
