Description

Fishing reel

The present invention relates to a reel, and more particularly to a double-bearing reel capable of ejecting a fishing line forward.

In a fishing reel for manual winding, the operating lever is rotated in the line winding direction to wind the fishing line. If the winding speed is changed during the winding, problems such as the fish falling off the needle may occur, which may affect the fishing. In addition, it is said that in a fishing method using a suspected bait such as "bream fishing for sea bream", a certain speed cannot be maintained without improving the fishing performance. Here, it is known that a pacemaker, which is roughly known by sound, will wind up the speed. The conventional pacemaker is mounted on a fishing rod, and when the start button is turned on, the light bulb is turned on at a predetermined time interval and an alarm is activated. This makes it easy for a fisherman to rotate the operation lever at a predetermined time interval.

In the conventional pacemaker, the pacemaker is mounted on a fishing rod, and a notification operation is not performed at a predetermined time interval without further starting a button operation. In addition, it is necessary to perform an OFF operation every time it is ejected, and it is cumbersome to start a button operation operation every time the winding is started.

An object of the present invention is to make it possible to start a notification operation at a predetermined time interval when fishing is performed.

The fishing reel according to the present invention is a reel capable of ejecting a fishing line forward. The fishing reel includes a reel body, an operating lever, a rotating body, and a reel for winding, a notification unit, a rotation detection unit, and a control unit. The operation lever is rotatably mounted on the reel body. The rotating body rotates at least in the thread winding direction in conjunction with the rotation of the operation lever. The notification unit can report to a predetermined time interval. The rotation detection unit detects the rotation of the wire winding direction of the operation lever and outputs a signal. The control unit receives the output of the rotation detection unit and starts the notification operation of the notification unit at a predetermined time interval.

In this fishing reel, when the operating lever is rotated in the line winding direction, the rotating body is rotated, so that the fishing line is wound on the reel. When the operation lever is rotated in the direction of thread winding, the rotation detection section detects the thread winding of the operation lever. Rotation of the direction outputs the signal. The control unit is a rotation detection unit that detects the rotation in the wire winding direction of the operation lever, and starts a notification operation at a predetermined time interval by the notification unit. Here, the notification operation at a predetermined time interval is started in conjunction with the wire take-up operation of the joystick. Therefore, the operation for notification start is unnecessary, and the notification operation at a predetermined time interval in the case of fishing can be easily started. .

The fishing reel is a double bearing reel, and the rotating body may be a reel. In this case, in the double-bearing reel, the notification operation at a predetermined time interval when fishing is performed can be easily started.

The fishing reel is a spinning wheel type reel, and a rotating body may be a rotor that can be used to wind a fishing line on a reel. In this case, in the spinning reel, the notification operation at a predetermined time interval when fishing is performed can be easily started.

The notification unit performs a notification operation by sound, and the control unit may sound the notification unit at a predetermined time interval when the joystick is rotated. In this case, it is not necessary to visually confirm that the notification section can recognize the predetermined time interval only by listening. Therefore, for example, a fisherman can go fishing while looking at the tip of the pole, and even if he reports the predetermined time interval, he will not hinder fishing.

The notification unit performs a notification operation by light, and the control unit may illuminate the notification unit at a predetermined time interval when the joystick is rotated. In this case, the angler in a noisy surrounding can also recognize a predetermined time interval while fishing.

The fishing reel further includes a rotation detection unit that detects rotation of the rotating body, and a rotation detection unit that is detected by the rotation detection unit. The number of rotations of the rotating body at a predetermined position may be used to calculate a winding diameter of the spool. The control unit may change the predetermined time interval in accordance with the calculated coil diameter. In this case, even if the change in the coil diameter changes the length of the fishing line per lap, it changes according to the predetermined time interval, so it is easy to keep the fishing line winding speed constant.

The fishing reel further includes a water depth display unit capable of displaying the water depth at the tip of the fishing line, and a winding speed of the fishing line calculated from the time variation of the wire winding diameter calculated by the wire winding diameter calculation unit. The winding speed calculation unit may be used. When the rotating body is rotated in the line winding direction, the control unit is on the water depth display unit, and the winding speed may be displayed instead of the water depth display. In this case, when the rotating body is rotated in the line winding direction, since the winding speed is displayed, it is possible to accurately determine whether the winding speed is appropriate.

The control unit may divide the predetermined time interval into a plurality of auxiliary time intervals, and the notification unit may perform an auxiliary notification operation different from the notification operation. In this case, even if the roll-up speed is slow and the predetermined time interval is made long, the notification interval can be shortened by placing the auxiliary time interval. Therefore, it is easy to obtain a time point.

The auxiliary notification action may be weaker than the notification action. In this case, since the notification action and the auxiliary notification action can be easily identified, it is easier to obtain the time point.

The fishing reel may further include an interval setting unit capable of setting a predetermined time interval. In this case, you can adjust the rolling speed according to the type of prey and the fishing method.

The control unit is in a state where a notification operation is performed by the notification unit. If the lower lever is stopped for more than a predetermined time, the operation may be stopped. In this case, it is possible to suppress power consumption caused by the notification operation.

According to the present invention, the notification operation at a predetermined time interval in the case of fishing can be easily started.

<First Embodiment>

The double-bearing reel 10 according to the first embodiment of the present invention is a fishing reel that can discharge a fishing line forward. In the following description, "front" indicates the direction in which the fishing line is ejected, and specifically, the upper left of Fig. 1 is "front".

The double bearing winder 10 includes a winder body 12, an operating lever 14, and a reel 16 shown in FIG. 1. In addition, the double-bearing reel 10 includes a notification unit 18, a control unit 20, a rotation detection unit 22, a wire coil diameter calculation unit 24, a water depth calculation unit 26, and a water depth display as shown in FIG. 2. The unit 28 and the winding speed calculation unit 30 and the setting unit 32. The rotation detection unit 22 detects the rotation of the reel 16 and the rotation of the operation lever 14. In the first embodiment, the wire winding diameter calculation unit 24, the water depth calculation unit 26, and the winding speed calculation unit 30 are implemented by software in the control unit 20. However, these may be implemented in hardware. The notification unit 18 can notify TI at a predetermined time interval. When the control unit 20 rotates the operation lever 14 in the wire winding direction, the control unit 20 starts the notification operation of the notification unit 18 at a predetermined time interval TI. The setting unit 32 is an example of an interval setting unit that sets a predetermined time interval TI.

As shown in FIG. 1, the reel main body 12 is a reel having a first meter counter unit 34a at the front upper part, an operating lever 14 and the opposite side The facing portion of 16 includes a second meter counter unit 34b. The first meter counter unit 34 a houses the notification unit 18, the control unit 20, the water depth display unit 28, the setting unit 32, and the memory unit 38. The second meter counter unit 34b stores the rotation detection unit 22 and the power source 36. The first meter counter unit 34a and the second meter counter unit 34b are connected by electrical wiring. The operation lever 14 is one of the side portions of the reel main body 12 which is rotatably mounted around a shaft extending leftward and rightward. The operation lever 14 is prohibited from rotating in the thread ejection direction by a reverse prevention mechanism (not shown), and is rotated only in the thread winding direction.

The reel 16 is a thread reel user, and is rotatably supported by the reel main body 12 around an axis parallel to the operation lever 14. The reel 16 includes a reel portion 16a having a fishing line wound around the outer peripheral surface. And a pair of flange portions 16b which are integrally formed on both sides of the winding reel portion 16a with a large diameter. The reel 16 is an example of a rotating body that rotates at least in the wire winding direction in conjunction with the rotation of the operation lever 14. Therefore, in the first embodiment, the rotating body and the reel 16 are the same. The reel 16 is braked by rotation of the wire discharge direction by a traction mechanism (not shown). In the reel 16, a rotation transmission mechanism (not shown) causes the rotation of the operation lever 14 to be transmitted at a speed of, for example, 5 to 8 times. In the flange portion 16 b on the opposite side of the operating lever 14 of the spool 16, the magnet 22 a shown in FIG. 2 detected by the rotation detection portion 22 is provided so as to face the rotation detection portion 22. .

The notification unit 18 is a buzzer including a sound generator contained in the first meter counter unit 34a in the first embodiment. The notification unit 18 uses a buzzer to perform a notification operation by a sound. In the first embodiment, the notification unit 18 is a spool 16 during the wire winding operation of the operation lever 14. When the line is ejected, and when the predetermined time interval TI is set by the setting unit 32, the notification operation is performed.

The control unit 20 controls the notification unit 18 and the water depth display unit 28 with the content set by the setting unit 32. The control unit 20 includes a microcomputer, and controls the notification unit 18 and the water depth display unit 28 by software. The control unit 20 is a functional configuration implemented by software, and includes a wire winding diameter calculation unit 24, a water depth calculation unit 26, and a winding speed calculation unit 30. The thread winding diameter calculation unit 24 is the number of rotations from a predetermined position of the reel 16 detected by the rotation detection unit 22, that is, for example, the position (one example of the predetermined position) from the start of the fishing line winding The reel 16 is rotated several times to calculate the wire winding diameter WD of the reel 16. The relationship between the number of rotations and the wire winding diameter WD is stored in the storage unit 38 in advance. The water depth calculation unit 26 calculates the water depth at which the fishing group displayed on the water depth display unit 28 is arranged, and calculates the water depth from the spool 16. Specifically, the water depth is calculated based on the relationship between the number of rotations and the water depth stored in the storage unit 38 in advance, based on how many times the reel 16 has been rotated from a predetermined position. The take-up speed calculation unit 30 calculates the take-up speed of the fishing line based on the time variation of the wire winding diameter WD calculated by the wire winding diameter calculation unit 24. The relationship between the rotation position of the spool 16 and the wire winding diameter WD and the wire length may be obtained by a known learning process.

The rotation detection unit 22 detects the magnet 22a attached to the reel 16 to obtain the number of rotations from the predetermined position of the reel 16, the winding speed of the fishing line, the depth of the fishing line, and the reel as described above. The wire winding diameter WD of 16 and the rotation direction of the spool 16 are provided. The rotation detection unit 22 is provided to detect whether the operation lever 14 is rotated. Rotation detection unit 22 is a reed switch or a Hall element which can detect the magnet 22a. In the first embodiment, the rotation detection unit 22 includes two reed switches arranged in parallel in the rotation direction. When a Hall element is used, the Hall element can be used because it can detect the rotation direction from a change in output.

The water depth display unit 28 is, for example, a liquid crystal display including a segment mode or a full-drawing display. The first embodiment includes an inexpensive segment-type liquid crystal display. The water depth display unit 28 is, as shown in FIG. 3, a numerical display unit 28 a having seven segments of three digits, for example. The numerical value display unit 28a can display numerical values, symbols, and some Roman letters. In the first embodiment, the numerical value display unit 28a displays the water depth of the fishing group by a three-digit numerical value when the water depth is displayed in FIG. 3 (a), and is rolled up as shown in FIG. 3 (b). When displaying the speed, for example, the roll-up speed is displayed in 10 steps with a single-digit value of 0-9. For example, each display shows that 0-20cm / s is not full in stage 0, 20-40cm / s is not full in stage 1, 40-60cm / s is not full in stage 2, and 60-80cm / s is 3 in stage 3. Not full, under 80-100cm / s in 4 stages, under 100-120cm / s in 5 stages, under 120-140cm / s in 6 stages, under 140-160cm / s in 7 stages In the 8th stage, the winding speed is less than 160-180cm / s, and in the 9th stage, the winding speed is 180cm / s or more.

The setting unit 32 includes an operation member 32 a that is disposed on the right side of the water depth display unit 28, for example. The operation member 32a is configured by, for example, a button. This operation member 32a can perform various setting operations by special operations (such as long-press and double-click operations). In the first embodiment In the setting other than the notification action, it can be set by long-pressing, and the notification action can be set by double-clicking. In the state in which the notification action can be set, for example, if a single tap is selected, any one of a plurality of predetermined time intervals TI can be selected.

The power source 36 is, for example, a disc-shaped alkaline battery or a lithium battery. The power source 36 is stored in the second meter counter unit 34b as described above.

The memory unit 38 is configured by, for example, a rewritable flash memory. In the memory unit 38, at least one of the relationship between the number of rotations of the fishing line and the length of the fishing line corresponding to the standard thickness and length of the double bearing reel 10 when it is shipped from the factory is memorized. In addition, the fisherman is obtained through learning processing, and the relationship between the number of rotations and the length of the fishing line of other thickness and length is memorized, and the information of the position of the fish shed (the depth of the fish migration layer) and the stop position of the rim The information is also memorized. It is further reported that the time interval of the action, that is, a plurality of predetermined time intervals TI is memorized. The predetermined time interval TI is set by, for example, reporting how many times in one minute. For example, it can be reported as OFF, 15 times (4 second interval), 40 times (1.5 second interval), 60 times (1 second interval), 80 times (0.75 second interval), 100 times (0.6 second interval). The predetermined time interval TI is set in 8 steps of 120 times (0.5-second interval, 150 times (0.4-second interval). When the predetermined time interval TI is set, the water depth display unit 28 corresponds to, for example, "OFF", " LO "," S-1 "," S-2 "," S-3 "," S-4 "," S-5 "," HI "at each predetermined time interval of 8 types of TI and text Any of them is displayed. When the setting is completed, the display returns to the water depth display. The initial value of the predetermined time interval TI is set to, for example, When the notification is OFF, if the predetermined time interval TI is set by the setting unit 32, it is stored in the storage unit 38 every time it is updated. In the first embodiment, when the water depth display unit 28 is turned OFF by the setting unit 32, the predetermined time interval TI stored in the memory unit 38 is reset to the full OFF state. However, the previous predetermined time interval TI may be held in the memory unit 38. The above information other than the predetermined time interval TI is maintained even when the power source 36 is exchanged.

Next, an example of the control operation of the control unit 20 will be described with reference to the flowcharts shown in FIGS. 4 and 5. The control operations shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 are only examples, and the present invention is not limited to the control operations disclosed in FIGS. 4 and 5.

In FIG. 4, in step S1, the control unit 20 reads the coil diameter WD before starting fishing from the coil diameter calculation unit 24, and sets the read coil diameter WD to the initial coil diameter W1. The initial wire winding diameter W1 is used for correction processing of a notification operation described later. In step S2, the control unit 20 determines whether the setting unit 32 is operated, and reports whether the time interval of the operation, that is, the setting operation of the predetermined time interval TI is selected. If the control unit 20 determines that the setting operation of the predetermined time interval TI is not selected, the process continues from step S2 to step S3. In step S3, the control unit 20 determines whether or not the reel 16 is rotated in the line winding direction based on the output from the rotation detection unit 22. When the control unit 20 determines that the reel 16 is not rotated in the thread winding direction, the process is continued from step S3 to step S4. In step S4, the control unit 20 determines whether the reel 16 is rotated in the line ejection direction based on the output from the rotation detection unit 22. Control department 20. If it is determined that the reel 16 is not rotated in the line ejection direction, the process is continued from step S4 to step S5. In step S5, since the reel 16 is not rotated in the thread discharge direction and the thread winding direction, the operation lever 14 is in a stopped state. Therefore, the control unit 20 determines whether or not the timer T is OFF. The timer T is a timer for determining whether the operation lever 14 is stopped for a predetermined time T1. The predetermined time T1 is used, for example, to turn off the notification operation (OFF), for example, to turn off (OFF) for 15 seconds (time ends). When the control unit 20 determines that the timer T is not turned OFF, the processing is continued from step S5 to step S6. In step S6, the control unit 20 determines whether or not the time of the timer T has expired, that is, whether the operation lever 14 has stopped for a predetermined time T1.

If the control unit 20 determines that the setting unit 32 is, for example, a double-click operation and the setting operation of the predetermined time interval TI is selected, the control unit 20 proceeds from step S2 to step S7. Figs. 7 (a) and 7 (b) indicate a state where the predetermined time interval TI of the notification operation is changed. This makes it possible to match the winding speed of the operation lever 14 which is most suitable for the type of prey, fishing method, and the like.

In step S7, the control unit 20 sequentially displays the set plural predetermined time intervals TI on the water depth display unit 28 in response to a single-click operation of the angler, for example, and sets the predetermined time selected by the angler. At the interval TI, the process continues to step S8. In addition, the display of the predetermined time interval TI is returned to the water depth display by the control unit 20 when one second has elapsed from the rotation of the operation lever 14 and the operation of the nearest setting unit 32. In step S8, the control unit 20 executes the operation shown in FIG. 5 The notification operation is continued to step S3. Thereby, the predetermined time interval TI selected by the phisher can be confirmed. If the control unit 20 determines that the rotation direction of the reel 16 is the wire winding direction, the process is continued from step S3 to step S9.

In step S9, since the operation lever 14 is not stopped, the control unit 20 turns off the timer T and proceeds to step S10. In step S10, the control unit 20 may display the winding-up speed of the fishing line calculated by the winding-up speed calculation unit 30 instead of the water depth display of the fishing unit on the water depth display unit 28. The control unit 20 displays, for example, a one-digit numerical value (for example, "6") in any of the ten stages as shown in Fig. 3 (b), and continues the process to step S11. In step S11, the control unit 20 executes the notification operation shown in FIG. 5 and proceeds to step S2.

When the control unit 20 determines that the rotation direction of the reel 16 is the discharge direction, the process is continued from step S4 to step S12. In step S12, the control unit 20 turns off the timer T so as not to end the notification operation, and proceeds to step S13. In step S13, as shown in FIG. 3 (a), the control unit 20 displays the depth of the fishing group by a maximum three-digit value on the display unit 28, and proceeds to step S14. In step S14, the control unit 20 executes the notification operation shown in FIG. 5 and proceeds to step S2.

When the control unit 20 determines that the timer T is OFF, the process continues from step S5 to step S15. In step S15, the control unit 20 turns on (starts) the timer T and starts the measurement. The stop time of the amount operation lever 14 is continued to step S2.

If the control unit 20 determines that the timer T has expired, the control unit 20 continues the process from step S to step S16. In step S16, the control unit 20 determines whether the flag F indicating whether or not to perform a notification operation is ON. When the flag F is ON, the process is continued from step S16 to step S17. In step S17, the control unit 20 turns off the flag F, stops the notification operation, and proceeds to step S2. As a result, if the operation lever 14 is not operated for a predetermined time T1, the notification operation ends. When it is determined that the timer T is not over time and when it is determined that the flag F is not ON, the control unit 20 proceeds to step S2.

In the notification operation of steps S8, S11, and S14, if the wire winding diameter WD of the reel 16 becomes larger, each time the reel rotates, the line length becomes longer, and the fishing line is changed without changing the predetermined time interval TI If rolled up, the rolling speed will gradually become faster. In order to prevent this, in the first embodiment, the predetermined time interval TI is corrected in such a manner that the corresponding wire coil diameter WD becomes larger and the predetermined time interval TI becomes longer. It is not necessary to perform this correction process.

In step S21 of FIG. 5 explaining the notification operation, the control unit 20 determines whether the flag F indicating whether or not the notification operation is performed is ON (set). The control unit 20 continues processing from step S21 to step S22 when it is determined that the flag F is not turned on. In step S22, the control unit 20 turns on the flag F and proceeds to step S23. If the control unit 20 determines that the flag F has been turned on If it is (ON), the control unit 20 continues processing from step S21 to step S23.

In step S23, the control part 20 reads the winding diameter WD calculated by the winding diameter calculation part 24, and continues a process to step S24. In step S24, the control unit 20 divides the read current coil diameter WD from the initial coil diameter W1 set before starting fishing, multiplies the value by a predetermined time interval TI, and sets a new regulation. The time interval TI continues to step S25. Thereby, the predetermined time interval TI is corrected by the wire winding diameter WD. In step S25, the control unit 20 determines whether or not the timer AT is ON (started). The timer AT is a timer that ends at a predetermined time interval TI time.

If the control unit 20 determines that the timer AT is not turned on, the control unit 20 continues the process from step S25 to step S26. In step S26, the control unit 20 turns on the timer AT to start, and proceeds to step S27. In step S27, the control unit 20 causes the notification unit 18 in the form of a buzzer to sound only N seconds, and terminates the first notification operation, and proceeds to step S25 to step S12 in FIG. 4 to continue processing. N seconds is, for example, a range of 0.1 seconds to 0.3 seconds.

When the control unit 20 determines that the timer AT is ON, the process continues from step S25 to step S28. In step S28, the control unit 20 determines whether or not the time of the timer AT has expired. If it is determined that the timer AT has expired, the control unit 20 continues the process from step S28 to step S29. In step S29, the control unit 20 is The notification unit 18 in the form of a buzzer only sounds for N seconds, and the second and subsequent notification operations are performed from step S29 to step S8, step S11, and step S14 in FIG. 4 and continue to the next step. Report action.

In the double-bearing reel 10 according to the first embodiment having such a configuration, as shown in FIG. 7 (a), the notification operation of the predetermined time interval TI is repeatedly performed in conjunction with the wire winding operation of the operating lever 14. Therefore, the notification operation is unnecessary, and the notification operation at a predetermined time interval TI in the case of fishing can be easily performed.

Furthermore, because the predetermined time interval TI is notified by sound, there is no need to visually confirm the notification unit 18, and the predetermined time interval TI can be recognized only by listening to the sound. Therefore, for example, a fisherman can go fishing while looking at the tip of the pole, and even if the TI is notified at a predetermined time interval, the fishing will not be hindered.

<Modification of First Embodiment>

In the modification shown in FIG. 6, the notification operation is performed at a predetermined time interval TI with the same tone as in the first embodiment, and during the predetermined time interval TI, the sound is recognizable by the sound of the first embodiment. The sound performs an auxiliary notification action. The notification operation including the auxiliary notification operation can be switched by, for example, the setting unit 32 and the normal notification operation without the auxiliary notification operation.

FIG. 7 (c) and FIG. 7 (d) show the notification operation in the modification. The identifiable sound is any of the sound color, volume, period, and notification time. In a modified example, during the auxiliary notification operation during a predetermined time interval TI, Compared with the reported action, one example is to decrease (decrease) the volume. Moreover, in FIG. 6, the auxiliary notification operation is performed only once during a predetermined time interval TI. However, the auxiliary notification operation during the predetermined time interval TI period may be a plurality of times such as two times shown in FIG. 7 (d) and three times (not shown).

In step S31 of FIG. 6 which describes a modified example of performing the auxiliary notification operation, the control unit 20 determines whether the flag F is ON (set). When the control unit 20 determines that the unmarked F is ON, the processing is continued from step S31 to step S32. In step S32, the control unit 20 turns on the flag F and proceeds to step S33. When the control unit 20 determines that the flag F has been turned on, the control unit 20 continues the process from step S31 to step S33.

In step S33, the winding diameter WD calculated by the winding diameter calculation unit 24 is read, and processing proceeds to step S34. In step S34, the control unit 20 multiplies the read current coil diameter WD by a value obtained by dividing the initial coil diameter W1 set before fishing starts, and multiplies the value by a predetermined time interval TI to set a new regulation. The time interval TI continues to step S35. Thereby, the predetermined time interval TI is corrected by the wire winding diameter WD. In step S35, the control unit 20 determines whether the timer AT1 has been turned ON (started). The timer AT1 is a timer for performing a notification operation at a predetermined time interval TI, and a timer that ends at a predetermined time interval TI time.

If the control unit 20 determines that the timer AT1 is not conducting If it is (ON), the control unit 20 continues processing from step S35 to step S36. In step S36, the control unit 20 turns on the timer AT1 to start it, and proceeds to step S37. In step S37, the control unit 20 causes the notification unit 18 to sound the notification unit 18 in the form of a buzzer with a first volume of only N seconds, and terminates the first notification operation. From step S37 to FIG. 4 Any one of step S8, step S11, and step S14 is continued. N seconds is, for example, a range of 0.1 seconds to 0.3 seconds as in the first embodiment.

When the control unit 20 determines that the timer AT1 is ON, the process continues from step S35 to step S38. In step S38, the control unit 20 determines whether or not the timer AT1 is half the time (0.5TI) of the predetermined time interval TI. When the control unit 20 determines that the timer AT1 has not reached half the time (0.5TI) of the predetermined time interval TI, the process proceeds from step S38 to any of steps S8, S11, and S14 in FIG. 4 .

When the control unit 20 determines that the timer AT1 is half the time (0.5TI) to the predetermined time interval TI, the control unit 20 continues the process from step S38 to step S39. In step S39, the control unit 20 determines whether or not the timer AT2 is ON. The timer AT2 is a timer for assisting the notification operation with a sound different from the notification operation during a predetermined time interval TI. In a modified example, the timer AT2 is turned on when the timer AT1 passes half of the predetermined time interval TI from the on time. The timer AT2 ends at a predetermined time TI. If it is determined that the timer AT2 is not turned on (ON), The control unit 20 continues processing from step S39 to step S40, turns ON the timer AT2, and continues processing to step S41. In step S41, the control unit 20 sounds the notification unit 18 in the form of a buzzer at a second volume that is weaker than the first volume for N seconds, performs an auxiliary notification operation, and proceeds to step S43.

If it is determined that the timer AT2 is ON, the control unit 20 continues the process from step S39 to step S42. In step S42, it is determined whether or not the time of the timer AT2 has expired. If it is determined that the timer AT2 has timed out, the control unit 20 continues the process from step S42 to step S41, and will sound the notification unit 18 from the second volume only N seconds. In step S43, the control unit 20 determines whether or not the time of the timer AT1 has expired. If the control unit 20 determines that the timer AT1 has timed out, the process continues from step S43 to step S44. In step S44, the control unit 20 sounds the notification unit 18 in the form of a buzzer with a first volume of only N seconds, and proceeds from step S42 to any of steps S8, S11, and S14 in FIG. 4 Continue processing.

In this modification, the notification operation at a predetermined time interval TI and the auxiliary notification operation at a half time interval (0.5TI) of the predetermined time interval TI cause two types of beep sounds to sound. Therefore, fishing with a slow rotation of the operating lever 14 is also easy to match with time.

<Second Embodiment>

In the first embodiment, the fishing reel according to the present invention is applicable to the double bearing reel 10, but in the second embodiment, the fishing reel according to the present invention is used. The thread reel is a spinning wheel type reel 110 shown in FIG. 8.

The spinning wheel type reel 110 is a fishing reel that can discharge the fishing line forward. The spinning wheel type reel 110 includes a reel main body 112, an operation lever 114, a reel 116, and a rotor 117. The reel main body 112 is a main body protection 113 which covers a rear part. An auxiliary notification unit 140 is provided on the rear surface of the body guard 113 to maintain the winding speed of the operation lever 114 at a constant level. The reel main body 112 rotatably supports the rotor 117 around the axis X which is arranged forward and backward. The reel body 112 supports the reel 116 in a reciprocating manner in the axis X direction. The operation lever 114 rotates around an axis Y different from the axis X. The rotation of the operation lever 114 is transmitted to the rotor 117 at a speed of 3 to 7 times by a driving mechanism (not shown). The rotor 117 is an example of a rotating body that rotates in conjunction with the rotation of the operation lever 114.

As shown in FIG. 9, the spinning wheel type winder 110 includes a notification unit 118 and a control unit 120 that can electrically notify the operation, a rotation detection unit 122, a display unit 128, and a winding speed calculation unit. 130, a setting unit 132, a power source 136, and a memory unit 138. When the control unit 120 rotates the operation lever 114 in the wire winding direction, the control unit 120 reports the notification unit 118 at a predetermined time interval TI. The notification unit 118, the control unit 120, the display unit 128, the setting unit 132, the power source 136, and the memory unit 138 are housed in the notification unit 140. The take-up speed calculation unit 130 is a functional configuration implemented by software in the control unit 120 as in the first embodiment. The rotation detection unit 122 detects the rotation of the operation lever 114 by the rotation of the rotor 117. The rotation detection section 122 is enlarged as shown in FIG. 8 As shown, it is provided at the front of the reel body 112. The rotation detection unit 122 has the same configuration as the first embodiment, and detects a magnet 112 a provided on the inner peripheral surface of the rotor 117. The rotation detection unit 122 can detect the rotation direction and the winding speed of the rotor 117.

The display unit 128 is configured by a segment-type liquid crystal display capable of displaying a three-digit numerical value similarly to the first embodiment. The display unit 128 is arranged on the notification unit 140 and can be visually confirmed from the rear of the reel main body 112. The setting section 132 is an operation member having the same buttons as those in the first embodiment. The setting unit 132 is a predetermined time interval TI and the notification unit 118 reports the predetermined time interval TI by turning on and off the light in the second embodiment. The notification unit 118 is a light-emitting element using at least one, for example, a light-emitting diode or an EL (Electroluminescence) element. A light emitting diode is used in the second embodiment. Light-emitting diodes emit light in red or white, making it easy to visually confirm night fishing. The other structures stored in the notification unit 40 are the same as those of the first embodiment.

In the spinning-type reel 119 having such a configuration, since the fishing line is wound by a certain radius in the rotor 117, it is not necessary to correct the predetermined time interval TI by the wire winding diameter WD. In addition, since the depth of the fishing group is not displayed, switching of the display is not necessary. In the display section 128, the roll-up speed of the rotor 117 is always displayed. The other control operations are the same as the control operations of FIGS. 4 to 6 of the first embodiment, except for the point where the light is turned off in place of the sound, so the description is omitted.

When the spinning wheel type reel 110 configured as described above rotates the operation lever 114 in the direction of winding the thread, the notification unit 118 is set at a predetermined time interval. TI causes the notification unit 118 to emit light and performs a notification operation. In addition, an auxiliary notification operation may be added as in the modification of the first embodiment.

<Feature>

The above embodiment can be expressed as follows.

(A) The double bearing reel 10 (or the spinning wheel type reel 110) is a reel capable of ejecting a fishing line forward. The double bearing winder 10 (or the spinning wheel type winder 110) is provided with a winder body 12 (or 112), an operating lever 14 (or 114), and a reel 16 (or Or a rotor 117 as a rotating body and a winding drum 116), a notification unit 18 (or 118), a rotation detection unit 22 (or 122), and a control unit 20 (or 120).

The reel 16 (or the rotor 117) rotates at least in the thread winding direction in conjunction with the rotation of the operation lever 14 (or 114). The notification unit 18 (or 118) can notify TI at a predetermined time interval. The rotation detection unit 22 (or 122) detects the rotation of the wire winding direction of the operation lever 14 (or 114) and outputs a signal. The control unit 20 (or 120) receives the output of the rotation detection unit 22 (or 122) and starts the notification operation of the notification unit 18 (or 118) at a predetermined time interval TI.

In this double-bearing reel 10 (or spinning wheel reel 110), if the operating rod 14 (or 114) is rotated in the direction of thread winding, the reel 16 (or rotor 117) will rotate and the fishing line will be Take-up on reel 16 (or 116). The joystick 14 (or 114) is turned in the direction of coiling When turning, the rotation detection unit 22 (or 122) detects the rotation of the wire winding direction of the operation lever 14 (or 114) and outputs a signal. The control unit 20 (or 120) is the rotation detection unit 22 (or 122) that detects the rotation of the wire take-up direction of the operation lever 14 (or 114), and starts the notification of the regulations of the unit 18 (or 118) Interval notification action. Here, since the notification operation of the predetermined time interval TI is started in conjunction with the wire winding operation of the operation lever 14 (or 114), the operation for notification start is unnecessary, and the predetermined time interval TI in the case of fishing is unnecessary. The notification action can be easily started.

(B) The fishing reel is a double bearing reel 10, and the rotating body may be a reel 16. In this case, in the double-bearing reel 10, the notification operation at a predetermined time interval TI in the case of fishing can be easily started.

(C) The fishing reel is a spinning wheel type reel 110, and the rotating body may be a rotor 117 that can be used to wind the fishing line on the reel 116. In this case, in the spinning reel 110, the notification operation at a predetermined time interval TI in the case of fishing can be easily started.

(D) The notification unit 18 performs a notification operation by sound. When the control unit 20 rotates the joystick 14, the notification unit 18 may start the utterance at a predetermined time interval TI. In this case, the visual confirmation notification unit 18 can recognize the predetermined time interval TI only by listening. Therefore, for example, a fisherman can go fishing while looking at the tip of the pole, and even if he reports the predetermined time interval, he will not hinder fishing.

(E) The notification unit 118 performs notification by light. The operation and control unit 120 may start to emit the notification unit 118 at a predetermined time interval TI when the operation lever 114 rotates. In this case, the angling person in a noisy surrounding can recognize the predetermined time interval TI while fishing.

Yes. The control unit 20 may change the predetermined time interval TI in accordance with the calculated coil diameter WD. In this case, even if the change in the coil winding diameter WD changes the length of the fishing line per lap, since the TI can be changed in response to a predetermined time interval, it is easy to keep the winding speed of the fishing line constant.

(G) The double-bearing reel 10 further includes a water depth display unit 28 capable of displaying the water depth at the tip of the fishing line, and a time change of the wire winding diameter WD calculated by the wire winding diameter calculating unit 24 to calculate a fishing line. The winding speed calculation unit 30 of the winding speed of the line may be used. When the spool 16 is rotated in the line winding direction, the control unit 20 may use the water depth display unit 28 to display the winding speed instead of the water depth display. In this case, when the reel 16 is rotated in the line winding direction, since the winding speed is displayed, it is possible to accurately determine whether the winding speed is appropriate.

(H) The control unit 20 may divide the predetermined time interval TI into a plurality of auxiliary time intervals, and the notification unit 18 may perform an auxiliary notification operation different from the notification operation. In this case, even if the predetermined time interval TI with a slow winding speed becomes long, the notification interval can be shortened by putting the auxiliary time interval. Therefore, it is easy to obtain a time point.

(I) The auxiliary notification action may be weaker than the notification action. In this case, since the notification action and the auxiliary notification action can be easily identified, it is easier to obtain the time point.
