"UNITED STATES'PATENT OFFICE.
THOMAS H OHUBB, OF POST MILLS, VERMONT.
METALLIC REE'L-SEAT 'FOR FISHING-RODS.
`SPECIIICATIO1\T forming part of Letters Patent No. 235,513, dated December 14, 1880.
the following-is a specification.
This invention relates to the construction of tubular metallic reel-seats,77 so called, for the butts ofshing-rods; and it consists in means fon-enabling such seat to be turned Or rotated upon the rod-butt, in order that the reel may be changed in position from one side of the butt tothe other should the latter become sprung or set in one direction, rny improvement being applicable to double-guide77 rods, so calledthat is, rods containing guides or rings upon two opposite sides, in order that the position of the rod may be reversed,and thereby equalize the vstrain upon it,"to prevent its becoming bent or set outot' la straight line.
To this end my'invention consists in applying the reel-Seatinsuch`manner as to permit it to be rotated upon the rod, and in providing a suitable spring-latch or adjustable stop, to confine a movable seat in one of its two positions with respect tothe double set of rings upon the rod.
The drawings accompanying this specification represent, in Figure 1,an elevation, and
in Fig. 2 a longitudinal section, of the lower` y end of a fishing-rod butt with my Vimprovements added to itpFig." Sis a view of the lower bearing-tube with. its spring-latch.
y In the above-named drawings, Arepresents the lower end of a ishing-rod butt, and B the tubular reel-seat encompassing such butt, the
longitudinal ns or guides which inclose and guide the reel-band being shown at C C, while the loose clasp-ring is shown at D, and the xed stop-ring at E.
In carrying out my present improvements I mount the reel seat or tube B upon the butt in such manner that it may be rotated upon the latter, and in order that the tubemay find a true and smooth bearing upon the butt I employ an intermediate ptube, F, which'is secured immovably to the butt, and in order to prevent endwise slippingor misplacement of the outer tube upon the inner I form the lat- Application filed May 10, 1880; (No model.)
ter in two parts, c b, each having a shoulder, 5o c or d, against which the adjacent end ot' the outer tube abuts.
The shoulder cl of the upper portion, b, of the inner tube constitutes the stop-ring to prevent the escape of the clasp-ring D, and thus performs a double function. It is preferably struck up from the metal of the tube, in lieu of being an independent piece riveted or soldered to it.
The socket to receive the lower end ot' the 6o reel-plate ,is shown at G as struck up from the periphery of a s1eeve,1, which encompasses and is brazed to the lower end of the tube B- in fact, constitutes the lower end of such tube and moves with it. 6 5
To lock the reel-seat B in either of its two stationary positions upon opposite sides ofthe butt I employ a spring-latch, (shown at J in the drawings as a plate-spring,) placed upon the inside of the tube a, and secured at one 7o end tothe latter, while at its free endit carries an outwardly-projecting stud, e, which operates with two oppositely-disposed holes, f or g, formed in the lower end of the tube B, such stud also passing through a hole, h, in the tube a, and is provided with a pressure button or knob, k, extending through a second hole, t', in the said tube a, below the tube B, and by means of which the spring-latch may be pressed inward and its spur. released from 8o engagement with such one'of theholes f or g as it may be at the time in, the material of the butt being cut away to permit of this movement of the spring-latch.
The holes fg and the latch J are arranged in such relation to the two sets of guide-rings of the rod as to lock the tube in such position that its fins or ribs, which determine the position of the reel, are in alignment with one or the other of the sets of rings, as the case may 9o Heretoforc in double-guide rods the reelseat has been secured immovably to the butt, and provided upon opposite sides with the guides or fins which support the reel-plate. This method. is objectionable in several respects, which it is the purpose of my present improvement to overcome.
I would state that I do not restrict myself to the precise manner herein shown of mounting the reel-seat B upon the butt, as the inner bearing-tube may be omitted and the reel-seat mounted directly upon the butt; but in this case independent rings must be employed to confine the outer tube to the butt, and the shrinking and swelling of the butt would interfere with the proper action of the reel-seat; or, again, the inner tube, a, may be in one piece and the abutments or rings to coniine the reel'baud in place be independent of it and secured to the butt.
The inner tube provides a perfect bearing for the reel-seat, and prevents rattle or play of the latter; hence I prefer to employ it.
I do not here claim a reel-seat consisting of a seamless tube having struck-up guide fins or projections. This feature I have made the subject of a separate application for Letters Patent of even date herewith.
I claim- 1. The combination, with a fishing-rod butt, 3o of a rotating reel-seat, substantially as hereinbefore set forth.
2. In fishing-rods, a tubular reel-seat encompassing and capable of rotating upon the butt of the rod, to correspond to the two sets of 35 line-rings upon a rod.
3. In combination with a tubular reel-seat capable ot' rotating upon the butt of the rod, an inner tube secured to the butt and constitutin g a bearing for the reel-seat.
4. In combination with the rotary reel-seat, a stop-ring adapted to prevent the escape of both the reel-seat and clasp-ring.
5. The combination, with the butt and the rotary reel-seat, of the intermediate bearing- 45 tube as made in two parts, one containing the integral stopring to prevent escape of the reel-seat from above, and the othercontaining a shoulder to prevent escape of the reelseat from below.
6. In combination with the rotary reel'seat and the butt, a spring-latch stationary with the butt and operating to lock the reel-seat in alignment with the rings upon the rod.
