Description

Roll for a fishing rod

The present invention relates to a role for a fishing rod with a housing, with a rotatably mounted on the housing spool for receiving and dispensing cord and with a switchable in their reverse direction backstop for the coil, the backstop at least one pivotally mounted pawl and with the Pawl has cooperating ratchet wheel. Moreover, the present invention relates to a switchable in their reverse direction backstop, in particular for a roller, as described above.

Rollers for winding and unwinding the fishing line are known in various designs. In particular, rollers are also known in which the spool is rotatably mounted on the housing of the roller, the axis of rotation being perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the fishing rod. The manual rotation of the coil via a laterally provided on the housing of the roller crank, which is connected via a gear drivingly connected to the coil. The gearbox is provided with a backstop, which is manually unlocked and in the unlocked state, a rotation of the coil in the sense of a catching up the fishing line allows, however, blocks rotation of the coil in the opposite direction.

The roll can be mounted on the fishing rod, ie above the rod, or suspended, ie below the rod. The crank for the manual drive of the coil is often on the left side of the case, as the tail of a right-handed person is usually performed with the right hand while the left hand is operated the crank. For left-handers who want to hold the rod with their left hand and operate the crank with their right hand, this version is not suitable. The crank would then have to be in both a standing and a hanging arrangement of the role on the right side of the housing. For this purpose, there are different versions of a role for right-handers and left-handers, which differ not only by the arrangement of the crank on the housing, but among other things have different gear. In particular, the backstop is executed differently in a left-hand version than in a right-hand version.

In order not to have to construct different versions of a type of roller for left-handers and right-handers or the standing and hanging arrangement, it is known from DE 103 58 084 B3 to provide in a role for a fishing rod of the type mentioned a backstop, in their reverse direction is switchable. In this way, a role between left-handed operation and right-handed operation can be switched individually. With such a switchable backstop is also possible to mount one and the same role for the right-hand operation both standing and hanging. The same is of course possible for the left hand operation.

The problem with the previously described prior art, however, is that the known, in their Reverse direction reversible backstop is elaborately constructed and has relatively large dimensions, which also affect the dimensions and weight of the role.

Thus, the known backstop includes a two-armed pawl with each mirror-symmetrically shaped arms, between which a ratchet wheel is arranged, which is connected via the transmission with the rotatable coil. The pawl is switchable via a complex mechanism between two pivot positions, wherein in one pivot position, the rotation of the ratchet wheel is blocked by one of the two arms in the clockwise direction, whereas in the other pivot position, the rotation of the ratchet wheel in the opposite direction by the other of the two locking arms is blocked.

It is therefore the object of the present invention to develop a role for a fishing rod with a switchable in its reverse direction backstop such that the dimensions and weight of the roller can be reduced.

The previously derived and indicated object is achieved according to a first teaching of the present invention in a role of the type mentioned in that the at least one pawl has a single locking arm, which is pivotable from a first to a second locking position, and that the locking arm such cooperates with the ratchet that the ratchet wheel is blocked by the locking arm in the first locking position in the clockwise direction and in the second locking position counterclockwise. According to a second teaching of the present invention, the previously derived and indicated object is achieved in a role of the type mentioned in that at least two pawls are provided, each having a single locking arm, which is pivotable from a locking position to a release position, and that the locking arms cooperate with the ratchet wheel such that the ratchet wheel is blocked by a first one of the locking arms in a first blocking position in the clockwise direction while at the same time another of the blocking arms is in the release position and blocked by the other of the blocking arms in a second blocking position in the counterclockwise direction while at the same time the first of the locking arms is in the release position.

Furthermore, the object is achieved according to a third teaching of the present invention by a switchable in its reverse direction backstop for retrofitting in a role for a fishing rod, in particular in a role as described above, wherein the backstop at least one pivotally mounted pawl and one with the pawl cooperating ratchet wheel, wherein the at least one pawl has a single locking arm which is pivotable from a first to a second locking position, and wherein the locking arm cooperates with the ratchet wheel, that the ratchet wheel of the locking arm in the first locking position in the clockwise direction and in the second blocking position is blocked in the counterclockwise direction.

Finally, according to a fourth teaching of the present invention, the object is achieved by a in reversible lock switchable for retrofitting in a role for a fishing rod, in particular in a role as described above, wherein the backstop has at least one pivotally mounted pawl and cooperating with the pawl ratchet wheel, wherein at least two pawls are provided, each having a single Have blocking arm, which is pivotable from a locking position to a release position, and wherein the locking arms cooperate with the ratchet wheel, that the ratchet wheel is blocked by a first of the locking arms in a first locking position in the clockwise direction, while at the same time another of the locking arms in the release position , and from the other of the locking arms is blocked in a second locking position counterclockwise while at the same time the first of the locking arms is in the release position.

The role of the invention has the advantage of significantly reduced dimensions compared to roles with reversible backstops from the prior art due to the simple design backstop. The reduced dimensions are achieved, on the one hand, by the fact that a pawl with only a single locking arm occupies less space in the backstop or the roller than a two-armed pawl and, on the other hand, one or more single-armed pawls significantly closer to the rear Ratchet can be arranged, as is the case with a two-armed pawl, the locking arms of which include the ratchet wheel.

Another advantage is that in case of wear or damage of a pawl arm only this one arm and not at the same time the second, which may not be damaged at all, needs to be replaced. Finally, the assembly of the small-sized and simply constructed pawls designed much easier compared to the prior art.

In addition, the construction according to the invention described above makes it possible for the first time, as claimed in the third and fourth teachings of the present invention, to provide a backstop switchable in its reverse direction for subsequent installation in a roll. In other words, a reversible backstop with the structure of the invention and the dimensions of the invention can be retrofitted as an assembly unit in any role. It does not necessarily have to be a role according to the first or second teaching of the present invention, but it is also the case conceivable to provide a provided with a previously non-reversible backstop role subsequently with the backstop invention. An assembly unit with the features of the third or fourth teaching of the present invention can be mounted in a few rolls on or in any role.

According to an advantageous embodiment of the roller according to the invention and / or backstop the ratchet wheel is fixed, in particular directly connected to the coil and preferably arranged coaxially to the coil. In a complex transmission between the backstop and the coil can be dispensed with in this way. The dimensions of the backstop and accordingly the role can be further reduced. The pawls are pivotable according to a further advantageous embodiment of a rotatably mounted, adjustable relative to the pawls Umschaltring between the individual positions. Preferably, the changeover ring is arranged coaxially to the coil and / or the ratchet wheel. Such a changeover ring has the advantage, in particular when using a plurality of pawls, that all pawls can be actuated simultaneously. Thus, it is conceivable, for example, that upon actuation of the Umschaltrings a pawl is pivoted from its blocking position into its release position, while at the same time another pawl is pivoted from its release position to the first blocking position opposite blocking position. Just the latter case also has the advantage that the pawls for switching the backstop from one to the other reverse direction only minimal, for example, only a few millimeters or fractions of a millimeter, must be moved. Thus, the one pawl can be moved by slight pivoting out of its locked position, while at the same time pivots through a correspondingly small movement, another pawl in the opposite blocking position.

According to a further advantageous embodiment, the ratchet wheel and / or the pawls and / or the Umschaltring axially adjacent to the coil in a side housing part, in particular a housing part formed by a cover arranged. In this way, the essential components of the reversible backstop can be arranged in a small space and in particular as a mounting unit. Preferably, the Changeover ring on the lateral housing part, in particular on the cover, mounted on the inside.

According to yet another advantageous embodiment, the changeover ring has at least one stop means for the respective pawl, in particular at least one changeover nose, wherein the stop means preferably projects in the axial direction from a base body.

The change-over ring described in the preceding paragraphs can be connected to an actuating means, which is preferably arranged on the outside of the housing, in particular on the outside of the cover. The actuating means may be a button or switch connected to the changeover ring, which is rotatably and / or displaceably guided in a hole, in particular a slot, of the lateral housing part, in particular of the cover. In this way, the operator can switch the backstop in its reverse direction with a single handle by merely moving a knob or switch from a first to a second position.

The ratchet wheel has according to a further advantageous embodiment, at least one stop means for the respective pawl, in particular at least one cam or tooth, wherein the stop means preferably projects in the radial direction on a base body. In this case, the base body may be disc-shaped, wherein the stop means projects in particular radially outward. The main body may also be annular, wherein the stop means in particular projects radially inwards. In the case of a disk-shaped body are the pawls Preferably arranged radially outside the ratchet wheel and pivotable radially inwardly to reach the locking position. In the case of an annular body, the pawls are preferably disposed radially within the ratchet wheel and pivotable radially outwardly to reach the locking position. The arrangements described above have the advantage that the pawls can be arranged relatively close to the ratchet wheel or the stop means of the ratchet wheel and thus save space in the role.

According to a further advantageous embodiment, the pawls on the lateral housing part, in particular on the cover, are mounted on the inside. Preferably, both the pawls and the Umschaltring on the side housing part, in particular on the lid, mounted on the inside, so that a particularly space-saving arrangement of the individual components of the backstop within the role, especially within the lid, results.

According to a further advantageous embodiment, the pawls are pivotable in a plane transverse to the coil axis. A pivotability in this plane allows a reduction in the dimensions of the backstop or rollers in the axial direction to a minimum.

Each pawl according to a further advantageous embodiment, a cooperating spring is provided which acts on the pawl in the direction of one of the positions, in particular in the direction of one of the blocking positions, with a spring force. The spring may be a leg spring or a Be a coil spring. Preferably, a part of the spring on the lateral housing part, in particular attached to the lid. In this case, the spring preferably finds a stop on a stop means, in particular on a stop ring, wherein the stop means is preferably integrally formed or fastened on the side of the housing, in particular on the lid.

The use of a spring, as described above, has the advantage that each acted upon by spring force pawl must be actively moved by the user only in one of their positions, whereas the pawl automatically assumes the other position as soon as they are released from the previous position becomes. In this way, the pawls pivoting means, in particular the Umschaltring, need only be designed so that the pawls are driven only in one direction. The drive in the opposite direction then takes place via the spring.

There are now a variety of ways to design the roller according to the invention or the invention, reversible in their reverse direction backstop and further. Reference is made, for example, on the one hand to the claims subordinate to claims 1 and 2, on the other hand, the description of a

Embodiment in conjunction with the drawing. In the drawing shows:

1 is a schematic view of a side housing part of a role with reversible backstop, 2 is a schematic view of a corresponding ratchet wheel,

Fig. 3a) u. b) is a schematic view of a corresponding Umschaltrings and

Fig. 4a) u. b) is a schematic view of a corresponding, reversible in their reverse direction backstop in the assembled state.

In Fig. 1 is a part of a special

Embodiment of a reversible backstop 1 shown, which results in the assembly shown in Fig. 2 ratchet and the Umschaltring shown in Fig. 3 in the assembled state, a mounting unit for a switchable backstop, as shown in Fig. 4 finally.

In Fig. 1, first, a lateral housing part, this may be a cover, shown, the four pivotally mounted pawls 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d and a fixedly molded stop ring 11 carries. In the illustrated embodiment, the pawls 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d are arranged radially outside the stop ring 11. Each pawl 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d is provided with a spring 10, this is a leg spring, acted upon by spring force.

The individual springs 10 find with one of its two legs a stop on the stop ring 11, such that the pawls 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d in the direction of their respective locking position, in the present case radially outwardly, are acted upon by spring force.

The pawls 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d each have a locking arm 2a ', 2b', 2c ', 2d', which serves to engage with the ratchet wheel 3 shown in FIG. In this case, in the snapshot shown in Fig. 1, the pawls 2a and 2c and the locking arms 2a 'and 2c' in their blocking position, whereas the pawls 2b and 2d or the locking arms 2b 'and 2d' of the in Fig. 3rd shown Umschaltring be pushed into their respective release position.

As shown in FIG. 2, the ratchet wheel 3 has a plurality of stop means, in this case twelve cams 8, which project inwardly in the radial direction from a base body 9. The base body 9 is annular in the present case.

Now, as shown in Fig. 1, some of the pawls 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d pushed outwards, so they interact with the cam 8 of the ratchet wheel 3 together such that the ratchet wheel 3 can be moved only in one direction, while it is blocked in the opposite direction of rotation. In the case shown in Fig. 1, the ratchet wheel 3 would be blocked in the clockwise direction, whereas it can rotate freely in the counterclockwise direction.

By operating the Umschaltrings 4 shown in Fig. 3, the pawls 2a and 2c can be brought into its release position and the pawls 2b and 2d in its blocking position, whereby the in Fig. 2 ratchet wheel 3 is then released clockwise and blocked in the counterclockwise direction.

The Umschaltring 4 has in the embodiment shown in Fig. 3 on a base body 6, projecting from the plurality of stop means, here four Umschaltnasen 5 a, 5 b, 5 c, 5 d, in the axial direction. The Umschaltnasen 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d are arranged so that in a first position of the Umschaltrings 4 relative to the pawls 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d two opposing pawls 2a and 2c not come into contact with the Umschaltnasen and simultaneously the two other pawls 2b and 2d are pressed by the Umschaltnasen in the release position, whereas in a second position of the Umschaltrings 4 relative to the pawls 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, the two opposing pawls 2a and 2c are pressed by the Umschaltnasen in its release position and the two other pawls 2b and 2d are free and thus pressed by the springs 10 in their locked position.

Fig. 3a) shows a section through the changeover ring 4. Here, a knob 7 can be seen, which is firmly connected to the base body 6 of the changeover ring 4 such that by turning the knob 7 and the changeover ring 4 is rotated. In this case, a connecting piece is provided between the knob 7 and the base body 6, which is guided by a circular hole in the housing part, not shown.

Finally, FIGS. 4a) and b) show a switchable backstop 1 using the individual parts described above, in particular the one Pawls 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, the ratchet wheel 3 and the changeover ring 4th

In Fig. 4a) the case is shown in which the pawls 2a and 2c are held by the changeover ring 4 in its release position, while the pawls 2b and 2d are pressed by the springs 10 in their locked position. In the case shown in Fig. 4a), the ratchet wheel 3 and the fixedly connected coil (not shown) is released in the clockwise direction and blocked in the counterclockwise direction. In this way, provided with such a reversible backstop 1 role (not shown) would be operable, for example, in a standing position for a right-handed.

Fig. 4b) finally shows the case in which the same role, also in a standing arrangement, now by switching the backstop 1 would be operable for a left-hander. For this purpose, only the changeover 4 was relative to the pawls 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d adjusted so that now the pawls 2a and 2c are in their locked position, whereas the pawls 2b and 2d are in their release position. In this state, the ratchet wheel 3 and the associated coil is blocked in the clockwise direction and released in the counterclockwise direction.
