Description

  The present invention relates to a fishing reel provided with a fishing line guide device (also referred to as a level wind device) for winding and guiding a fishing line around a spool in parallel between side plates in front of the spool.

  Generally, in a fishing reel of the type described above, when a handle is wound up, a line guide of a fishing line guide device installed in front of a spool reciprocates left and right. Since the line guide is formed in a long hole or a round hole so that the fishing line can be inserted, when the line guide reciprocates left and right in accordance with the winding operation of the handle, the fishing line rotates through the line guide. It is wound in parallel to the spool that performs.

  By the way, during the fishing line releasing operation, the fishing line fed out from the spool moves in the left-right direction of the spool and bulges upward while being released forward through the line guide. There is a problem that the flight distance is reduced.

  Therefore, in order to solve such a problem, Patent Document 1 discloses that a line guide includes a fishing line insertion portion that opens upward, and a horizontal fishing line that extends outward from the upper end of the fishing line insertion portion. The structure which comprised by the guide part and fitted the edge part of the horizontal fishing line guide part to the arc-shaped insertion hole each formed in the side plate is disclosed.

According to the line guide having such a configuration, since the upper portion of the fishing line insertion portion is open, when the fishing line is released, the contact resistance with the fishing line bulging above the spool is reduced, and the flying distance is prevented from being lowered. It becomes possible.

It can be opened or closed over a wide range on the upper surface side of the left and right side plates 2A and 2B of the reel body so that the switching operation can be performed with a simple operation such as attaching the hand on the opposite side to the reel body 1 ing.

  With the configuration described above, the line guide 32 of the fishing line guide device 20 is covered with the entry operation unit 54 at least part of the guide parts 32e and 32f and the fishing line guide part 32a when viewed from above (see FIG. 1). It is in the state.

  As is well known, the clutch drive member 51 is supported so as to be rotatable with respect to the right frame 2b, and a power transmission state (clutch ON state) shown in FIG. 3 and a power cutoff state shown in FIG. It is arranged and held in a state (clutch OFF state). A pair of cam surfaces 58 that can be engaged with a yoke 57 that is fitted in the circumferential groove of the pinion 12 are formed on the surface of the clutch drive member 51.

  The front end side of the yoke 57 is held by a support pin 59 projecting from the right frame 2b. The yoke 57 is always a clutch drive member by a spring member (not shown) disposed on each support pin. It is in a state of being biased to the 51 side. FIG. 3 shows a state in which the yoke 57 is urged toward the clutch drive member 51 by the spring member. At this time, the pinion 12 is fitted into an engagement portion formed at the end of the spool shaft. The clutch is in an ON state.

  The end of the clutch driving member 51 is connected to the cutting operation portion 53. When the cutting operation portion 53 is pushed down as shown by an arrow in FIG. 3, the clutch driving member 51 is rotated counterclockwise. The pinion 12 is disengaged from the engaging portion formed at the end of the spool shaft via the yoke 57 (switched to the clutch OFF state). In addition, this state is held by the distribution spring 56, and the entry operation portion 54 rotates as described above, and as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the fishing line guide portion 32a of the line guide 32 is rotated. The upper side is opened.

Then, by pressing the entry operation portion 54, the clutch driving member 51 is rotated in the clockwise direction and returned to the clutch ON state in the reverse procedure described above.
The clutch mechanism 50 configured as described above has a known automatic clutch return that automatically returns the clutch drive member 51 to the clutch ON state when the handle 8 is wound up in the clutch OFF state. A mechanism 60 is provided.

  Next, the operation and effect of the fishing reel configured as described above will be described.

  In the clutch ON state shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, when the cutting operation portion 53 of the switching member 52 located on the rear side of the spool 5 is pressed, the clutch drive member 51 is rotated counterclockwise and the distribution spring 56 is operated. Thus, the state shown in FIG. 5 is maintained. At this time, the cam surface formed on the surface of the clutch drive member 51 shifts the yoke 57 in the axial direction and disengages the pinion 12 from the spool shaft (clutch OFF state). Further, by the pressing operation of the cutting operation portion 53, the front side of the above-described switching operation portion 54 of the switching member 52 is rotated so as to rise from the left and right side plates 2A, 2B, and above the fishing line guide portion 32a of the line guide 32. The side is opened.

  In this state, the spool 5 is in a freely rotatable state, and the fishing line is released by a casting operation or the like. In this case, the fishing line tends to bulge upward as indicated by the dotted lines S to S ′ in FIG. 5, but as described above, the upper side of the fishing line guide portion 32a is in an open state. For this reason, contact resistance from other objects is reduced, and the flying distance of the device is not reduced.

  It is preferable to attach a member (fishing line contact member) 54A having wear resistance and low sliding resistance to the back surface of the entry operation portion 54. By attaching such a fishing line contact member 54A, even if the fishing line comes into contact with the fishing line when it is released or taken up, it can be prevented from being broken and the contact resistance can be further reduced.

  Then, by gripping the reel body together with the fishing rod and holding the finger of the hand (mainly the thumb performing the summing operation) slightly forward or sideward, and pressing the operation section 54 downward, The clutch driving member 51 is rotated clockwise from the state shown in FIG. 5 and is returned to the clutch ON state by the distribution spring 56. The return to the clutch ON state can also be performed by the automatic clutch return mechanism 60 by winding the handle 8.

Thereafter, by winding the handle 8, the fishing line is wound around the spool 5 in parallel by the line guide 32 of the fishing line guide device 20.
In this case, when the handle 8 is wound up, the threaded shaft 21 of the fishing line guide device 20 is rotationally driven via the input gear 11a provided on the handle shaft 8a and the gear 21a meshing with the input gear 11a. .

  When the screw shaft 21 is rotationally driven, the slider body 22 reciprocates left and right along the guide shaft 23 via a slider 26 that engages with a spiral groove 21 b formed on the outer peripheral surface of the screw shaft 21. Moved. Accordingly, the oscillating body 30 provided with the line guide 32 is moved through the elongated hole 22a formed in the slider main body 22 and the connecting portion 30c engaged therewith when the slider main body 22 is reciprocated left and right. Thus, the front side of the reel body 1 is swung in a circular arc shape around the support portion 31 supported on the lower side of the spool 5.

  At this time, the engaging portions 32c and 32d of the line guide 32 extended on both outer sides of the upper side of the fishing line guide portion 32a opened on the upper side are in the long grooves 2c and 2d formed in the left and right frames 2a and 2b. It moves in the opposite direction. That is, when the fishing line guide portion 32a of the line guide 32 swings left and right in an arc shape, the engaging portions 32c and 32d are supported so as to be movable in opposite directions in the front-rear direction, and thus the fishing line guide portion 32a. Can be swung in a circular arc shape to the left and right.

  As a result, the fishing line S is guided from the guide portions 32e and 32f of the line guide 32 to the fishing line guide portion 32a and enters the fishing line guide portion 32a as shown by a broken line in FIG. Turned. Even if the fishing line is slightly inflated with respect to the spool 5, the fishing line is guided toward the fishing line guide portion 32a by the guide portions 32e and 32f that are inclined so as to gradually spread rearward.

  According to the fishing line guide device 20 configured as described above, the fishing line guide part 32a constituting the line guide 32 and the guide parts 32e and 32f as the fishing line release parts are formed in an upright direction. And extending from the connecting portion 30c between the slider body 22 and the line guide 32 toward the rear side of the spool 5, that is, as much as possible above the upper edges of the left and right side plates 2A and 2B. Since the reel body 1 is positioned so as not to protrude at all (lie down), the vertical direction of the reel body 1 can be downsized to effectively achieve a low profile. Excellent. In addition, since it has guide portions (fishing line release portions) 32e and 32f that extend from the fishing line guide portion 32a so as to expand wider than this and release the fishing line at the time of releasing the fishing line, the fishing line discharge performance is also excellent. .

  Further, according to the fishing line guide device 20 of the present embodiment, the slider main body 22 reciprocated between the left and right side plates and the line guide 32 for guiding the fishing line are disposed on the front side of the spool 5, so It is possible to effectively utilize as a clutch switching operation and a summing zone, for example, by setting a space between the side plates as an installation region of the cutting operation portion 53, and it becomes possible to improve operability when releasing the fishing line. Further, since the line guide 32 and the slider main body 22 are not distributed before and after the spool 5, the reel main body 1 can be downsized.

In this case, it is possible to further reduce the size of the reel body 1 in the vertical direction by installing the support portion 31 serving as the rotation base end portion of the oscillating body 30 in front of the spool shaft 5a. Become.
Further, in the above configuration, the upper side of the line guide 32 above the fishing line guide portion 32a has an opening (not in an enclosed shape), so that the contact resistance is reduced when the fishing line is released, and the flying of the device is skipped. It does not reduce the distance. In particular, in the present embodiment, the upper side of the fishing line guide portion 32a is such that the portion functioning as a thumb rest (insertion operation portion 54) rotates when the clutch is turned off and widely opens the upper side of the fishing line guide portion 32a. The possibility that the fishing line comes into contact is further reduced, and it is possible to more effectively prevent the flying distance of the device from being lowered.

  In the present embodiment, the engaging portions 32c and 32d of the line guide 32 are supported so as to move in opposite directions within the long grooves 2c and 2d formed in the left and right frames 2a and 2b. The guide portion 32a can be stably swung left and right in a circular arc shape, and further, by such an engagement method, the thickness of the left and right side plates 2A and 2B is reduced as much as possible to reduce the thickness of the reel body 1. It becomes possible to reduce the size.

  In the present embodiment, since the rocking body 30 is engaged with a long hole 22a formed in the slider body 22, the line guide 32 and the arcuate reciprocation of the rocking body 30 associated with the reciprocating motion of the slider body 22 in the left-right direction. Can be performed smoothly.

  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, this invention is not limited to above-described embodiment, It can change variously. For example, the shape of the oscillating body 30 and the method of engagement with the slider body 22 can be modified as appropriate. In addition, the present application is characterized by the shape of the line guide 32. The above-described clutch mechanism 50 is changed, the cutting operation portion 53 is provided on one side plate, and the left and right operation portions 54 are not provided.
