The clutch yoke portion 83 has a through hole 83b at a position corresponding to each pin portion 82a. By inserting each pin portion 82a into each of the through holes 83b, the clutch yoke portion 83 is supported to be movable in the axial direction.

The clutch yoke portion 83 is used to engage the neck portion 101f of the pinion 101c. Therefore, the pinion gear 101c moves in the axial direction in conjunction with the clutch yoke 83. Even if the pinion gear 101c rotates, the clutch yoke 83 does not rotate. The clutch yoke portion 83 is urged inward in the axial direction by the urging member. Specifically, the clutch yoke portion 83 is urged inward in the axial direction by a plurality of coil springs 82 b supported by the pin portions 82 a of the pressing plate 82.

In the normal state, the clutch yoke portion 83 is urged inward in the axial direction by each coil spring 82b. Therefore, the engagement portion 101d of the pinion 101c is engaged with the engagement pin 101e of the spool shaft 20. That is, the clutch mechanism 6 connects the handle 5 and the spool 2. On the other hand, when the clutch operating member 7 is operated to move the clutch yoke portion 83 outward in the axial direction, the engagement portion 101d of the pinion gear 101c and the engagement with the engagement pin 101e are released. As a result, the clutch mechanism 6 connects and disconnects the handle 5 and the reel 2.

The return member 84 is swingably attached to the protruding portion 81 b of the clutch cam 81. The restoring member 84 includes a claw portion 84b. The claw portion 84b is in contact with an outer peripheral portion of the ratchet wheel 101g that rotates integrally with the drive shaft 101a. The restoring member 84 is separated in both directions by the elbow spring 84a. Squeeze. By the rotation of the ratchet wheel 101g, the clutch cam 81 is moved inward in the axial direction by pressing the claw portion 84b of the return member 84. That is, the clutch cam 81 returns from the clutch-off position to the clutch-connected position.
