FISHING=REEL SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 639,008, dated December 12, 1899. Application filed May 1, 1897. Serial No. 634,728. (No model.)
To all whmn it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES H. WIsNER, a citizen of the United States,residing at Flint, county of Genesee, State of Michigan, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Fishing-Reels; and I declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to fishing-reels, and has for its object an improved frame for containing the spool of the reel and the mechanism employed to wind the line onto the spool and in the click used in connection with the gear.
1n the drawings, Figure 1 shows in perspective the base with all the reel parts removed therefrom. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section of the base. Fig. 3 is a perspective of the frame. Fig. 4 is a perspective of the click mechanism.
A indicates the base-plate, which is arched somewhat in its cross-section to correspond with the seat made for it on the fishing-pole. It is straight along its median back line,'and the sides of the base curve upward at the places where the cross-bars B and C are secured to it, so that each cross-bar B and O is axially straight and secured to the base-plate, which is straight in cross-section at the place of contact, but the outer edges of which curve so as to form three places of contact a b c a b c on each edge between the plate and the seat,thus making this base-plate light and strong.
The cross-bars B and O are provided at one end with a shoulder 1,.beyond which extends a neck 2, adapted to engage in the main or middle plate of the frame, and each cross-bar B and O, at its other end, is provided with a shoulder, a neck adapted to engage the side plate, and a screw-terminal adapted to receive a holding-nut.
The middle or main plate of the frame is secured, preferably, by riveting to the two cross-bars B and 0. It is round in contour and has secured to it other cross-bars D E F, which are preferably secured to this plate by riveting and are provided at that end which lies farthest from this plate with shoulders and screw-threaded terminals d, e, and f.
There are also secured to this main or middle plate a number of studs which project from the plate in a direction opposite to the cross bars D, E, and F. These studs 4 5 6 '7 are preferably secured to the main or middle plate by riveting them thereto and are provided on their outer ends with screw-threaded terminals adapted to receive, first, the side or cap plate that constitutes the outer plate of the housing from the mechanism, and, second, the nuts that hold the cap-plate to the studs. This form of construction is simply made, permits of. the easy assembling of the various parts of the reeLenables one to disassemble the parts without difficulty, and yet is extremely strong and stable--very much stronger than the ordinary form, in which the outer plates are held to the post by screws that enter the post.
Within the housing is a specially-formed click. This click engages with the pinion on the main shaft and is so arranged that it can be thrown into or out of mesh with the pinion by a rotary action of its actuator instead of by a sliding actuator in common use. The click proper consists of a wheel 4, mounted on a stud 5, that projects from the main frame-plate. The wheel 4 may be a starwheel of four points, as shown in the drawings, or it may be of two points or any number, provided the pitch between successive points is sufficient to enable the wheel to take a position such that the pinion can rotate without engaging any of the points when it is desired to have it assume this position, and at the same time the wheel is adapted to engage between the teeth of the pinion and be yieldingly held, so as to permit the rotation of the pinion to snap into the spaces between successive teeth as the pinion revolves. On each side of the point 49, that is employed as the click-point, is a spring. Preferably the two springs form the terminals of a single spring-wire, made in the form of a split ring and held in position by a block 7, through which the wire of the spring passes; and preferably the wire of the spring 6 passes through the block' 7 so as to be spaced from the main plate of the frame, the object of the spacing being to hold the wire I at all times free from the plate and permit to the spring perfect freedom of action and also to prevent the possible holding of water between the spring and the plate, and thereby reduce the liability to rust.
The spring 6 is held in the block '7 firmly by flattening slightly that portion which traverses the block and swaging the block down on the flattened part of the spring, and the block itself is held to the main plate and is riveted to it.
At the rear of the wheel 4t is an actuating,- wheel mounted on a shaft 8, one end of which is journaled in the main plate, and the other end of which passes through the cap-plate, in
which it is journaled, and is provided on its projecting extremity with a knob or other suitable means by which it may be actuated. The wheel proper, which actuates the clickwheel, is one that is so constructed that in one position it is entirely out of contact with the cliclowheel; but if turned to another position it is not only in contact with the click wheel, but is in such contact as to throw the click- Wheel out of mesh with the pinion and to lock it in its out ofmesh position. A form of wheel well adapted to this purpose is shown in the drawings as a practically-rectangular block, in which the side 9 is removed'so far from the stud 5 that when the wheel 9 is in the position shown in the drawings the clickwheel is in mesh with the pinion and is entirely free to vibrate when the pinion revolves. The side 9 would occupya position identical with the side 9 if the wheel 9 were given a half -revolution. The sides 9 9, however,
will engage with the side of the tooth 4c and will not only throw the wheel 4 around on its axis until the point 4 is out of mesh with the pinion, but the side of the tooth at engaging with the flat end 9 9 of the wheel 9 will be locked in its out-of-mesh position and will remain securely locked until the wheel 9 is actuated by the user. In order that the bearing between the wheel 9 and the side of the tooth 4 may be as great as possible, I prefer to give to each of the faces 9 9 a length greater than the cross-length of the wheel 9 at its middle part. This is easily done by making the faces 9 9" reentering faces, cutting them back into the block until the desired overhang is produced.
\Vhat I claim is- 1. In a fishing-reel in combination with a pinion, a click arranged to be thrown either into or out of mesh with the pinion, a clickactuating wheel, having a long and a short axis and arranged to be rotated to occupy a position to actuate the click-wheel and turn it out of engagement with the pinion to rest against a portion of the click-wheel, locking it out of engagement with the pinion, or to rest entirely free from engagement with the click-wheel, substantially as described.
2. In a fishing-reel in combination with a pinion on the main shaft, a click-Wheel, an actuating-wheel normally entirely free from the click-wheel but adapted to engage the same, partially rotate, and remain in looking engagement with the click-wheel, substantially as described.
3. A click-wheel provided with a plurality of click-teeth, either one of which may be utilized as a click-tooth combined with an independent actuating-wheel adapted to partially rotate and remain in looking engagement with the partiallyrotated tooth, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I sign this specification in the presence of two witnesses.
CHARLES H. WISNER.
