In the known line reels, in order to prevent the twisting of the fishing line from curling, it is advisable to use a line reel in which the rotating shaft of the reel is arranged horizontally. With this type of line reel, when a fish is caught, the fisherman holds the side surface of the line reel body with his thumb, and operates the operation part disposed on the side surface of the line reel body with his thumb to drive the motor. Therefore, the clutch operating portion is preferably arranged on the upper surface of the main body of the cord reel, not on the side of the main body of the cord reel.

Here, in the cord reel in which the rotating shaft of the spool is arranged horizontally, if the clutch operation part is arranged on the upper surface of the cord reel body, for example, directly above the drive shaft of the motor, the height dimension of the cord reel body will be enlarged. doubts.

The present invention has been developed in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an electric cord reel capable of reducing the size of the cord reel main body.

An electric reel according to one aspect of the present invention is used for installing a short fishing rod. The electric cord reel is provided with: a cord reel main body, a reel shaft, a reel, a motor, and a clutch member. The spool shaft is horizontally and vertically installed on the line reel main body in a direction in which the fishing line is released. The spool is rotatably supported by the spool around the first rotation axis. The motor has a drive shaft. The drive shaft rotates around a second axis of rotation, and the second axis of rotation extends in a direction different from that of the first axis of rotation. The drive shaft rotates the reel by making contact with the reel.

The clutch member is mounted on the cord reel body so as to be able to swing around a swing axis extending in a direction different from the first rotation axis. The swing axis is arranged at a distance from the second rotation axis when viewed from a direction perpendicular to the first rotation axis. The clutch member separates the drive shaft from the spool by pressing the drive shaft between the second rotation axis and the swing axis.

In this electric cord reel, the second rotation axis of the drive shaft extends in a direction different from the first rotation axis of the spool. The pivot axis of the clutch member extends in a direction different from the first rotation axis. When viewed from a direction perpendicular to the first rotation axis of the spool, the swing axis of the clutch member is disposed at a distance from the second rotation axis of the drive shaft. In this arrangement, the clutch member presses the drive shaft between the pivot axis of the clutch member and the second rotation axis of the drive shaft. Thereby, the clutch member disengages the drive shaft from the spool.

In this way, the electric cord reel can separate the drive shaft from the spool by using the clutch member. In addition, in this electric cord reel, when viewed from a direction perpendicular to the first rotation axis of the spool, the swing axis of the clutch member is arranged at a distance from the second rotation axis of the drive shaft. When viewed in the direction of the first rotation axis, the distance between the swing axis, the drive shaft, and the second rotation axis can be narrowed. In this way, the height dimension of the main body of the cord reel can be miniaturized.

In the electric cord reel according to another aspect of the present invention, it is preferable that the drum has a flange portion. In this case, the flange portion is arranged between the second rotation axis and the swing axis. The drive shaft is disposed so as to be able to contact the flange portion.

According to this configuration, the clutch member can properly separate the drive shaft from the spool, and the height dimension of the cord reel main body can be reduced in size.

In the electric cord reel according to another aspect of the present invention, it is preferable that the motor is swingably mounted on the cord reel main body. In this case, the drive shaft is moved away from the drum by the oscillation of the motor.

According to this configuration, the clutch member can properly separate the drive shaft from the spool, and the height dimension of the cord reel main body can be reduced in size.

It is preferable that the electric cord reel of another aspect of this invention is further equipped with the 1st biasing member. In this case, when the pressing of the clutch member on the drive shaft is released, the first biasing member biases the clutch member in a direction away from the drive shaft.

According to this configuration, it is possible to easily release the pressing of the clutch member on the drive shaft.

It is preferable that the electric cord reel of another aspect of this invention is further equipped with the 2nd biasing member. In this case, when the pressing of the drive shaft by the clutch member is released, the second biasing member brings the drive shaft closer to the spool.

According to this configuration, when the pressing of the clutch member on the drive shaft is released, the drive shaft can easily contact the spool.

In the electric cord reel according to another aspect of the present invention, it is preferable that the clutch member has a mounting portion swingably mounted on the cord reel main body, and a pressing portion provided on the mounting portion for pressing the drive shaft.

According to this configuration, the drive shaft can be appropriately separated from the spool by using the clutch member, and the height dimension of the main body of the cord reel can be reduced in size.

In the electric cord reel according to another aspect of the present invention, it is preferable that the cord reel main body has an inner space. In this case, the main body of the cord reel has a hole that communicates from the inner space to the outer space. The clutch member further has an extension part and an inner cover part, the extension part extends from the installation part arranged in the inner space toward the outer space; the inner cover part is provided in a manner to close the hole part between the hole part and the installation part in the extension.

According to this structure, since the inner cover part is provided in the extension part so that the hole part may be closed between the hole part and the mounting part, intrusion of foreign matter can be prevented. In addition, since the inner space cannot be seen from the outer space by using the inner cover portion, the appearance can be improved.

It is preferable that the electric cord reel according to another aspect of the present invention further includes: a power supply unit disposed on the main body of the cord reel for driving the motor. In this case, a part of the power supply unit is disposed between the cord reel main body and the spool. According to this configuration, the height dimension of the cord reel main body can also be reduced in size.

According to the present invention, the size of the cord reel main body in the electric cord reel can be reduced.

Specifically, the second connecting portion 38e is formed continuously with the same linear member as the second mounting portion 38b and the thread stop portion 38c. As shown in FIG. 3, the 2nd connection part 38e is arrange|positioned so that the 1st connection part 38d may be spaced apart from the front view which looked at the cord reel main body 3 from the front. Here, the second connecting portion 38e is arranged on the left side of the first connecting portion 38d when the cord reel main body 3 is viewed from the front.

Here, when fishing, the thread stopper 38c may move forward together with the fishing line due to the sliding resistance between the fishline and the thread stopper 38c. When the thread stopper 38c moves forward, the thread stopper guide 38 tends to rotate in a front view of the thread reel main body 3 viewed from the front.

However, in this thread stopper guide 38, when the thread reel main body 3 is seen from the front, the 1st installation part 38a (spiral part) is formed so that it may wind up counterclockwise. Therefore, when the above-mentioned thread stopper guide 38 is about to rotate clockwise, the diameter of the first mounting portion 38a is reduced to restrict the rotation of the thread stopper guide 38 .

In addition, in this thread stopper guide 38, when the thread reel main body 3 is seen from the front, the 2nd installation part 38b (spiral part) is formed so that it may wind clockwise from the hand side toward the back side. In other words, the second mounting portion 38b is wound in the counterclockwise direction from the second connecting portion 38e toward the thread feeding direction. Therefore, when the above-mentioned thread stopper guide 38 is about to rotate clockwise, the diameter of the second mounting portion 38b is reduced, and the rotation of the thread stopper guide 38 can be restricted.

Here, when the cord reel main body 3 is viewed from the front, the second connecting portion 38e is arranged on the left side of the first connecting portion 38d, so the first mounting portion 38a is formed to be wound in the counterclockwise direction, and the second connecting portion 38e is formed to be wound in the counterclockwise direction. The attachment part 38b is formed so that it may be wound clockwise from the hand toward the back (counterclockwise from the second connection part 38e toward the thread feeding direction). Instead, when the cord reel main body 3 is viewed from the front, when the second connecting portion 38e is arranged on the right side of the first connecting portion 38d, the first mounting portion 38a is formed to be wound in a clockwise direction. The same effect can be obtained by forming the second mounting portion 38b to be wound counterclockwise from the hand side toward the rear side (clockwise from the second connecting portion 38e toward the thread releasing direction).
