Description

Double bearing reel{DUAL-BEARING REEL}

The present invention is a double bearing reel, particularly a double bearing reel that discharges fishing line forward.

A casting control mechanism that constantly brakes the spool shaft is installed on both bearing reels. A double-bearing reel in which the adjustment member of the casting control mechanism is installed on the side opposite to the handle mounting side is known (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

In a conventional double bearing reel, a positioning member (cover member 9) for positioning the spool shaft is provided on the handle side. The positioning member is a bottomed cylindrical member having an outer peripheral surface and an inner peripheral surface. A circularly protruding boss portion is formed on the handle side of the reel body. The positioning member is fixed by screwing the inner peripheral surface of the positioning member to this boss portion. The adjustment member is screwed into the reel body so that the second end face on the opposite side to the first end face can be pressed. In the casting control mechanism, the spool shaft is braked with an adjustment member and a positioning member sandwiching the spool shaft.

Japanese Patent Publication No. 2013-128439

In a conventional double-bearing reel, if the positioning member is rotated incorrectly, the axial position of the spool shaft is shifted. If the axial position of the spool shaft is misaligned, the line winding shape of the spool changes. Additionally, when a spool braking mechanism is installed to brake rotation in the discharge direction of the spool during casting, there is a risk that the braking force may change if the axial position of the spool shaft is shifted.

The object of the present invention is to prevent erroneous operation by the user and prevent the axial position of the spool shaft from being misaligned.

The double bearing reel according to the present invention is a reel that discharges fishing line forward. The double-bearing reel includes a handle for winding line, a reel body, a spool, a spool shaft, a casting control mechanism, and a cover member. The reel body has a frame and a first side cover, and the spool is rotatably mounted. The frame has a first side plate installed on the handle side and a second side plate disposed opposite to the first side plate at a distance from the first side plate. The first side cover covers the outer surface of the first side plate. The spool is disposed between the first side plate and the second side plate, and can be rotated in the line winding direction by rotating the handle. The spool shaft is rotatably installed on the spool. The casting control mechanism has a positioning member and an adjustment member. The positioning member is threaded to the first side cover and is capable of positioning the first end surface of the spool shaft. The adjustment member is screwed to the second side plate and is capable of pressing the second end surface on the opposite side from the first end surface of the spool shaft. The adjustment member can brake the spool shaft by means of the positioning member and adjust the braking force acting on the spool shaft. The cover member is disposed on the outer surface of the first side cover and covers the outer peripheral surface of the positioning member.

In this double-bearing reel, in the casting control mechanism, the spool shaft is pinched and braked by an adjustment member and a positioning member. The outer peripheral surface of the positioning member is covered by a cover member disposed on the outer surface of the first side cover. For this reason, it becomes difficult for the user to accidentally rotate the positioning member, preventing erroneous operation by the user, and preventing the axial position of the spool shaft from being misaligned.

The first side cover may have a normal first boss portion whose inner periphery is open toward the first end face and protrudes toward the outer side in the axial direction. The positioning member is a cap member that closes the opening, and the cover member may cover the outer peripheral surface of the cap member. According to this configuration, since a threaded portion can be formed on the outer peripheral surface of the first boss portion, the positioning member can be easily attached. Additionally, because the positioning member is cap-shaped, the cover member can easily cover the outer peripheral surface of the positioning member.

A bearing that rotatably supports the spool shaft may be mounted on the inner peripheral surface of the first boss portion. According to this configuration, the positioning of the positioning member and the support of the spool shaft can be performed by the first boss portion.

The double-bearing reel may further include a handle and a drive shaft that can rotate integrally. The first side cover may have a normal second boss portion through which the drive shaft penetrates and protrudes outward in the axial direction. The cover member may be fitted and mounted on the second boss portion. According to this configuration, the cover member can be stopped from rotating by the first boss portion and the second boss portion, and the cover member can be positioned.

The second side plate may have a screw hole penetrating toward the second end surface of the spool shaft, and the adjustment member may have a screw shaft threaded into the screw hole. According to this configuration, since the adjustment member is screwed into the screw hole, the adjustment member can be configured compactly and protrusion from the reel body can be suppressed.

The reel body may further include a second side cover that covers the outer surface of the second side plate. The adjustment member may not protrude from the second side cover. According to this configuration, it becomes difficult for a sense of discomfort to occur during palming, and it also becomes difficult for the rotational position of the adjustment member to change against the will.

The double-bearing reel may further be provided with a spool braking mechanism that brakes rotation in the line discharge direction opposite to the line winding direction of the spool. The spool braking mechanism includes a first braking member that can rotate integrally with the spool, a second braking member installed on the second side plate and braking the first braking member, and an adjustment mechanism configured to adjust the braking force by the second braking member. has According to this configuration, the spool shaft is unlikely to deviate in the axial direction, so the braking force can be stabilized.

The first braking member may be a braking shoe that moves by centrifugal force. The second braking member may be a brake drum that can be brought into contact with the braking shoe. The adjustment mechanism may adjust the braking force by moving the brake drum in the spool axis direction. According to this configuration, since the spool shaft is unlikely to shift in the axial direction, the adjusted braking force becomes difficult to vary even if the brake drum is moved in the axial direction by the adjustment mechanism.

The spool may have a line winding body portion and a pair of flange portions formed with large diameters at both ends of the line winding body portion. The first braking member may be a part of the spool of the conductive system. The second braking member may be at least one magnet installed on the second side plate so that the positional relationship in the spool axis direction with a part of the spool can be changed. The adjustment mechanism may adjust the braking force by moving the magnet in the spool axis direction. According to this configuration, the spool shaft is unlikely to shift in the axial direction, so even if the magnet is moved in the axial direction by the adjustment mechanism, the adjusted braking force in the moving position becomes difficult to vary.

The first braking member may be a magnet having a plurality of magnetic poles that can rotate integrally with the spool. The second braking member may be a plurality of coils installed immovably with respect to the second side plate so as to be able to face the magnet. The adjustment mechanism may adjust the braking force by electrically controlling the current flowing through the coil. According to this configuration, it is difficult for the spool axis to shift in the axial direction, so the axial positions of the magnet and the coil are unlikely to shift. For this reason, even if the current flowing through the coil is controlled by the adjustment mechanism, the current can be controlled with high precision, and the adjusted braking force becomes difficult to fluctuate.

The double bearing reel according to the present invention has a spool, a handle, a drag mechanism, and a casting control mechanism. The spool is installed between the side plates of the reel body, and the fishing line is wound. The handle rotates the spool. The drag mechanism is rotatably installed on the axis of the handle. The casting control mechanism is provided with a positioning member formed in a cap shape that comes into contact with an end portion on the handle side of the spool axis and adjusts the pressure, and the positioning member in the cap shape is provided. Braking force is applied to the rotation of the spool by rotation. A cover member covering the outer peripheral surface of the positioning member is provided on the side cover on the handle side of the reel body.

The positioning member may be provided with a chamfer on its peripheral edge.

The cover member may have a cover portion that comes into contact with the edge portion of the positioning member.

According to the present invention, it becomes difficult to erroneously rotate the positioning member, prevents erroneous operation by the user, and prevents the axial position of the spool shaft from being misaligned.

The shaft support portion 36 is rotatably supported by the second side cover 34 while holding the second side cover 34 therebetween. The shaft support portion 36 is prevented from falling off with respect to the second side cover 34. Additionally, the shaft support portion 36 is detachably mounted on the side plate main body 35 by a known bayonet mechanism (not shown).

The shaft support portion 36 includes a bearing mounting portion 36a on which a second bearing 42b supporting the second end 18d of the spool shaft 18 is mounted, and a second side cover together with the bearing mounting portion 36a ( It has a detachable operation portion 36b that holds 34 so that it can be rotated relative to each other. The bearing mounting portion 36a is a dish-shaped member, and the outer peripheral portion 36c fits into the opening 35a of the second side plate 30b. A bayonet mechanism is provided between the outer periphery of the bearing mounting portion 36a and the opening 35a. At the center of the bearing mounting portion 36a, a normal bearing accommodating portion 36d that accommodates the second bearing 42b is formed to normally protrude toward the spool 16. Inside the bearing storage portion 36d, a disc-shaped second plate 54b constituting the casting control mechanism 20 is mounted. A screw hole 36e into which the later-described adjustment member 52 of the casting control mechanism 20 screws is formed at the bottom of the bearing storage portion 36d. The attachment/detachment operation portion 36b can be rotated integrally with the bearing mounting portion 36a with respect to the second side cover 34 while being positioned on the bearing mounting portion 36a.

The first side cover 32 covers the outer surface of the first side plate 30a. As shown in FIG. 5, the first side cover 32 has a normal first boss portion 32a protruding outward in the axial direction, and a front and bottom portion of the first boss portion 32a. It has a normal second boss portion 32b disposed at intervals and protruding outward in the axial direction. The first boss portion 32a opens on its inner circumference toward the first end surface 18a of the spool shaft 18. A first bearing 42a is mounted on the inner peripheral surface of the first boss portion 32a to rotatably support the first end portion 18c on the first end surface 18a side of the spool shaft 18. On the outer peripheral surface of the first boss portion 32a, a male thread portion 32c and an annular seal groove 32d for mounting an O-ring 72 for sealing are formed. The second boss portion 32b has a larger diameter than the first boss portion 32a and is configured to allow the drive shaft 24 to pass through it. A one-way roller clutch 44 is installed on the inner peripheral surface of the second boss portion 32b to rotate the drive shaft 24 only in the line winding direction.

The second side cover 34 covers the outer surface of the second side plate 30b. The second side cover 34 has a circular concave portion 34a and an opening 34b at its center. The shaft support portion 36 is rotatably mounted on the second side cover 34. The second side cover 34 is removable from the frame 30 together with the shaft support portion 36.

＜Spool＞

The spool 16 is a member of a conductive material such as aluminum alloy. The spool 16 is disposed between the first side plate 30a and the second side plate 30b, and can be rotated in the line winding direction by rotating the handle 12. The spool 16 has a line winding body 16a on which fishing line is wound, and a pair of flange portions 16b formed with large diameters at both ends of the line winding body 16a. One flange portion 16b is disposed within the opening 35a.

＜Spool axis＞

The spool shaft 18 is installed on the spool 16 so as to be rotatable. As described above, the spool shaft 18 has a first end 18c on the first end face 18a supported by the first boss portion 32a through a first bearing 42a, and a second end face ( The second end 18d on the 18b) side is supported on the bearing storage portion 36d via the second bearing 42b. The first end face 18a and the second end face 18b are each formed as a spherical surface.

＜Casting control mechanism＞

As shown in FIG. 2, the casting control mechanism 20 has a positioning member 50, an adjustment member 52, a first plate 54a, and a second plate 54b. The positioning member 50 is detachably installed on the first boss portion 32a of the first side cover 32. 2 and 5, the positioning member 50 is threaded to the external thread portion 32c formed on the outer peripheral surface of the first boss portion 32a, and is connected to the first end surface 18a of the spool shaft 18. ) can be positioned. The positioning member 50 is tightly fastened to the first boss portion 32a so that its bottom contacts the front end surface of the first boss portion 32a. The positioning member 50 is a normal cap member with a bottom that closes the opening of the first boss portion 32a. The positioning member 50 has a large-diameter edge portion 50a on the outer periphery of the opening. The edge portion 50a is configured to face the outer surface of the first side cover 32 on which the first boss portion 32a protrudes with a gap when the positioning member 50 is tightly fastened. . Inside the positioning member 50, a plate-shaped first plate 54a in contact with the first end surface 18a is mounted. As described above, the second plate 54b is installed inside the bearing storage portion 36d of the shaft support portion 36.

The adjustment member 52 is engaged with either the second side plate 30b or the second side cover 34. In this embodiment, the adjustment member 52 is threaded to the second side plate 30b. Specifically, the adjustment member 52 is a screw shaft 52a that engages the screw hole 36e provided at the bottom of the bearing storage portion 36d of the shaft support portion 36 constituting the second side plate 30b. has Additionally, the adjustment member 52 has a circular operation knob 52b for turning the screw shaft 52a. The adjustment member 52 can press the second end surface 18b on the opposite side to the first end surface 18a of the spool shaft 18. The casting control mechanism 20 clamps the spool shaft 18 with the adjustment member 52 and the positioning member 50 and constantly brakes the spool shaft 18. The adjustment member 52 can adjust the braking force acting on the spool shaft 18 by rotating it. The operation knob 52b of the adjustment member 52 is disposed within the concave portion 34a of the second side cover 34 and does not protrude from the second side cover 34. This makes it difficult for the adjustment member 52 to rotate against its will, making it even more difficult for the spool shaft 18 to move in the axial direction.

＜No cover＞

The cover member 22 is, for example, a member made of synthetic resin. The cover member 22 is disposed on the outer surface of the first side cover 32, as shown in FIGS. 2, 3, 4, and 5. The cover member 22 is installed to prevent the user from easily manipulating the positioning member 50. This means that when the positioning member 50 is rotated and the axial position of the spool shaft 18 changes, the line winding shape of the spool 16 changes and the braking force at each adjustment position of the spool brake mechanism 26 This is because changes occur. The cover member 22 has a cover portion 22a that covers the outer peripheral surface of the cap member as the positioning member 50, and a mounting portion 22b that is fitted and mounted on the second boss portion 32b. As shown in FIG. 2 , the cover portion 22a comes into contact with the edge portion 50a of the positioning member 50 and prevents the positioning member 50 from falling off. In this way, the cover portion 22a of the cover member 22 covers the positioning member 50, making it impossible for the user to easily operate the positioning member 50. As shown in Fig. 5, the mounting portion 22b has a larger diameter than the cover portion 22a. The mounting portion 22b includes a fitting hole 22c that fits on the outer peripheral surface of the second boss portion 32b and is fitted and mounted on the second boss portion 32b, and a plurality of units (e.g., for fixing to the first side cover 32). For example, it has two (2) fixed bosses (22d). A screw member 74 is screwed into the fixing boss 22d through the first side cover 32. Thereby, the cover member 22 is detachably mounted on the outer surface of the first side cover 32. This cover member 22 may be used, for example, as a name plate on which the model number, company name, logo, etc. of both bearing reels 10 are printed.

＜Drive shaft＞

As shown in FIG. 2, the drive shaft 24 is provided to transmit the rotation of the handle 12 to the spool 16. The drive shaft 24 transmits the rotation of the handle 12 to the spool 16 through a known drag mechanism 54, drive gear 56, pinion gear 58, and clutch mechanism 60.

＜Spool braking mechanism＞

As shown in Fig. 2, the spool braking mechanism 26 is configured to brake rotation of the spool 16 in the line discharge direction opposite to the line winding direction during casting. The spool braking mechanism 26 of this embodiment mechanically brakes the spool 16 by centrifugal force. The spool braking mechanism 26 has a first braking member 62, a second braking member 64, and an adjustment mechanism 66. The first braking member 62 can rotate integrally with the spool 16. The second braking member 64 is installed on the second side plate 30b and brakes the first braking member 62. The adjustment mechanism 66 is configured to adjust the braking force by the second braking member 64. The first braking member 62 includes a support member 68 rotatably connected to the spool shaft 18, and a braking shoe rotatably supported on the support member 68 about an axis crossing the spool shaft 18. It has (70). The braking shoe 70 swings due to centrifugal force. The second braking member 64 constitutes a brake drum 64a that can be brought into contact with the braking shoe 70 . The brake drum 64a is screwed or cam-engaged to the bearing storage portion 36d and moves in the axial direction by rotation. The adjustment mechanism 66 using a screw or cam mechanism can adjust the braking force in multiple stages by moving the brake drum 64a in the spool axis direction. The adjustment mechanism 66 rotates by rotating an adjustment knob (not shown) connected by a gear, and adjusts the axial position of the brake drum 64a in multiple steps. The adjustment knob is rotatably mounted on the shaft support portion 36 and is exposed from the second side cover 34 to be operable from the outside.

In the double bearing reel 10 configured as described above, the positioning member 50 is covered by the cover member 22 so that the user cannot operate it. For this reason, it becomes difficult to incorrectly rotate the positioning member 50, and the axial position of the spool shaft 18 is prevented from being misaligned. This makes it difficult to prevent changes in the line winding shape of the spool 16 and changes in the braking force of the spool braking mechanism 26 for each stage, which are caused by the spool shaft 18 being displaced in the axial direction.

＜First modification example＞

In addition, in the following description of the modified example, members having the same configuration as the above embodiment are given the same reference numerals as those in the above embodiment in the drawings, and the description thereof is omitted. For members with different configurations but corresponding members, a three-digit code with the same last two digits is written.

In the above embodiment, the cover member 22 has a cover portion 22a and a mounting portion 22b. However, in the first modification shown in FIG. 6, the cover member 122 has a cover portion 122a. Only, the mounting part is not installed. As in the above embodiment, the cover portion 122a is detachably attached to the outer surface of the first side cover 32 by suitable fixing means such as elastic engagement or screw locks, for example. Even with the double-bearing reel 110 of this configuration, the same effect as that of the above embodiment is achieved.

＜Second modification example＞

In the double-bearing reel 210 of the second modification shown in Fig. 7, the spool braking mechanism 226 mechanically brakes the spool 16 by magnetic force. The spool braking mechanism 226 has a first braking member 262, a second braking member 264, and an adjustment mechanism 266 of a conductive body. The first braking member 262 is a part of the spool 16 in the second modification, and is specifically the inner peripheral surface of the line winding trunk 16a of the spool 16. The second braking member 264 is at least one magnet 264a installed on the second side plate 30b so that the positional relationship in the spool axis direction with a part of the spool 16 can be changed. The magnet 264a is fixed to the outer peripheral surface of a normal moving member 270 that cam-engages with the adjustment mechanism 266. The moving member 270 moves in the spool axis direction by rotation of the adjustment mechanism 266. The adjustment mechanism 266 is connected to an adjustment knob (not shown) rotatably supported on the shaft support portion 36 by a gear. The adjustment mechanism 266 can adjust the braking force in multiple stages by rotating according to the rotation of the adjustment knob. Even with the double-bearing reel 210 of this configuration, it is difficult for the spool shaft 18 to shift in the axial direction, so even if the magnet 264a is moved in the axial direction by the adjustment mechanism 266, the movement position can be adjusted. It becomes difficult for the applied braking force to fluctuate.

＜Third modification example＞

In the double bearing reel 310 of the third modification shown in Fig. 8, the spool braking mechanism 326 is an electrically controllable mechanism. The spool braking mechanism 326 has a first braking member 362, a second braking member 364, and an adjustment mechanism 366. The first braking member 362 is a magnet 362a that has a plurality of magnetic poles and can rotate integrally with the spool 16. The magnet 362a is a normal bonded magnet, and is rotatably connected to the spool shaft 18. The second braking member 364 is a plurality of coils 364a installed immovably with respect to the second side plate 30b so as to be able to face the magnet 362a. The adjustment mechanism 366 adjusts the braking force by electrically controlling the current flowing through the coil 364a using, for example, a switching element. The adjustment mechanism 366 has a circuit board 366a including a control unit comprised of a microcomputer. Even with the double-bearing reel 310 having such a configuration, the spool shaft 18 is unlikely to deviate in the axial direction, making it difficult for the axial positions of the magnet 362a and the coil 364a to deviate. For this reason, even if the current flowing through the coil 364a is controlled by the adjustment mechanism 366, the current can be controlled accurately, and the adjusted braking force becomes difficult to fluctuate.

<Other embodiments>

Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various changes are possible without departing from the gist of the invention. In particular, the plurality of embodiments and modifications written in this specification can be arbitrarily combined as needed.

(a) In the above-described embodiments and modifications, the adjustment member 52 is threaded to the second side plate 30b, but the adjustment member may be threaded to the second side cover 34. In this case as well, the operation knob of the adjustment member may be configured so as not to protrude from the second side cover 34.

(b) In the above embodiments and modifications, the cover member 22 does not cover the bottom of the positioning member 50, but the cover member is configured to cover the bottom of the positioning member 50. It's okay too.

(c) In the above embodiments and modifications, the adjustment member 52 is configured not to protrude from the second side cover 34, but the adjustment member may be arranged to protrude from the second side cover.

(d) In the above embodiments and modifications, the cover member 22 is detachably mounted on the first side cover 32 by a screw member 74, but the mounting means is not limited to a screw stop, for example For example, it may be mounted by elastic engagement such as snap fit.

(e) In the above embodiments and modifications, a double bearing reel 10 having a spool braking mechanism 26 (or 226, 326) whose braking force changes when the spool shaft 18 moves in the axial direction. (or (110), (210)) has been disclosed, but the double bearing reel according to the present invention is not limited to this. The present invention can also be applied to a double-bearing reel in which the braking force does not change even if the spool shaft moves in the axial direction. In this case, variation in the line winding shape of the spool can be suppressed.

＜Features＞

The above example can be expressed as follows.

(A) The double bearing reel 10 (or 110, 210) is a reel that discharges the fishing line forward. The double-bearing reel 10 (or (110), (210)) includes a handle 12 for winding line, a reel body 14, a spool 16, a spool shaft 18, and a casting control. It is provided with a mechanism (20) and a cover member (22). The reel body 14 has a frame 30 and a first side cover 32, and a spool 16 is rotatably mounted thereon. The frame 30 has a first side plate 30a installed on the handle 12 side, and a second side plate 30b disposed opposite to the first side plate 30a at a distance from the first side plate 30a. The first side cover 32 covers the outer surface of the first side plate 30a. The spool 16 is disposed between the first side plate 30a and the second side plate 30b, and can be rotated in the line winding direction by rotating the handle 12. The spool shaft 18 is installed on the spool 16 so as to be rotatable. The casting control mechanism 20 has a positioning member 50 and an adjustment member 52. The positioning member 50 is threaded to the first side cover 32 and is capable of positioning the first end surface 18a of the spool shaft 18. The adjustment member 52 is engaged with either the second side plate 30b or the second side cover 34, and has a second end surface 18b on the opposite side to the first end surface 18a of the spool shaft 18. It is possible to press. The adjustment member 52 can brake the spool shaft 18 by the positioning member 50 and adjust the braking force acting on the spool shaft 18. The cover member 22 is disposed on the outer surface of the first side cover 32 and covers the outer peripheral surface of the positioning member 50.

In this double bearing reel 10 (or 110, 210), the spool shaft 18 is pinched by the adjustment member 52 and the positioning member 50 in the casting control mechanism 20, The spool shaft (18) is braked. The outer peripheral surface of the positioning member 50 is covered by a cover member 22 disposed on the outer surface of the first side cover 32. For this reason, it becomes difficult for the user to accidentally rotate the positioning member 50, preventing erroneous operation by the user, and preventing the axial position of the spool shaft 18 from being misaligned.

(B) The first side cover 32 may have a normal first boss portion 32a whose inner circumference is open toward the first end surface 18a and protrudes outward in the axial direction. The positioning member 50 is a cap member that closes the opening, and the cover member 22 may cover the outer peripheral surface of the cap member. According to this configuration, the external thread portion 32c can be formed on the outer peripheral surface of the first boss portion 32a, so the positioning member 50 can be easily attached. Additionally, because the positioning member 50 is cap-shaped, the cover member 22 can easily cover the outer peripheral surface of the positioning member 50.

(C) A first bearing 42a that rotatably supports the spool shaft 18 may be mounted on the inner peripheral surface of the first boss portion 32a. According to this configuration, the positioning of the positioning member 50 and the support of the spool shaft 18 can be performed by the first boss portion 32a.

(D) The double-bearing reel 10 (or 110, 210) may further include a drive shaft 24 that can rotate integrally with the handle 12. The first side cover 32 may have a normal second boss portion 32b through which the drive shaft 24 penetrates and protrudes outward in the axial direction. The cover member 22 may be fitted and mounted on the second boss portion 32b. According to this configuration, the cover member 22 can be stopped from rotating by the first boss portion 32a and the second boss portion 32b, and the cover member 22 can be positioned.

(E) The second side plate 30b has a screw hole 36e penetrating toward the second end surface 18b of the spool shaft 18, and the adjustment member 52 is threaded into the screw hole 36e. It is okay to have a screw shaft 52a. According to this configuration, since the adjustment member 52 is screwed into the screw hole 36e, the adjustment member 52 can be configured compactly and protrusion from the reel body 14 can be suppressed.

(F) The reel body 14 may further include a second side cover 34 that covers the outer surface of the second side plate 30b. The adjustment member 52 may not protrude from the second side cover 34. According to this configuration, it becomes difficult for a feeling of discomfort to occur during farming, and it also becomes difficult for the rotational position of the adjustment member 52 to change against the will.

(G) The double-bearing reel 10 (or 110, 210) is further provided with a spool braking mechanism 26 that brakes rotation in the line release direction opposite to the line winding direction of the spool 16. It's okay too. The spool braking mechanism 26 includes a first braking member 62 that can rotate integrally with the spool 16, and a second braking member installed on the second side plate 30b and braking the first braking member 62 ( 64) and an adjustment mechanism 66 configured to adjust the braking force by the second braking member 64. According to this configuration, the spool shaft 18 is unlikely to deviate in the axial direction, so the braking force can be stabilized.

(H) The first braking member 62 may be a braking shoe 70 that moves by centrifugal force. The second braking member 64 may be a brake drum 64a that can be brought into contact with the braking shoe 70. The adjustment mechanism 66 may adjust the braking force by moving the brake drum 64a in the spool axis direction. According to this configuration, since the spool shaft 18 is unlikely to shift in the axial direction, the adjusted braking force becomes difficult to vary even if the brake drum 64a is moved in the axial direction by the adjustment mechanism 66.

(I) The spool 16 may have a line winding body 16a and a pair of flange portions 16b formed with large diameters at both ends of the line winding body 16a. The first braking member 262 may be a part of the spool 16 of the conductive system. The second braking member 264 may be at least one magnet 264a installed on the second side plate 30b so that the positional relationship in the spool axis direction with a part of the spool 16 can be changed. The adjustment mechanism 266 may adjust the braking force by moving the magnet 264a in the spool axis direction. According to this configuration, the spool shaft 18 is unlikely to shift in the axial direction, so even if the magnet 264a is moved in the axial direction by the adjustment mechanism 266, the adjusted braking force in the moving position becomes difficult to vary. .

(J) The first braking member 362 may be a magnet 362a that has a plurality of magnetic poles and can rotate integrally with the spool 16. The second braking member 364 may be a plurality of coils 364a installed immovably with respect to the second side plate 30b so as to be able to face the magnet 362a. The adjustment mechanism 366 may adjust the braking force by electrically controlling the current flowing through the coil 364a. According to this configuration, since the spool shaft 18 is unlikely to shift in the axial direction, the axial positions of the magnet 362a and the coil 364a are unlikely to shift. For this reason, even if the current flowing through the coil 364a is controlled by the adjustment mechanism 366, the current can be controlled accurately, and the adjusted braking force becomes difficult to fluctuate.
