DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a fishing reel using a lead switch operated by a magnet as a detecting device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A line length measuring device for detecting the number of rotations of a spool rotatably supported between side plates of a conventional reel body and measuring the amount of reeling out and winding of fishing line based on the number of rotations. Fishing reels equipped with a fishing reel are generally known from, for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 63-3568 and Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-10859. Further, a detecting device for detecting the number of revolutions of the spool is:
A magnetic sensor is provided so as to face a rotating magnet. The magnetic sensor generally uses a lead switch as in the former publication and a ball element as in the latter publication. . Further, from the viewpoint of the performance of the magnetic sensor, in the case of a boat fishing reel in which the device is fed to a predetermined shelf position in the sea, the rotation speed of the spool is relatively low, so that the reel using the magnetic attraction force is used. In the case of a reel or the like in which a trap switch is used and the device is released to a predetermined point by a casting operation, since the rotation speed of the spool is high, a hole utilizing a voltage generated by the ball effect is used. Element is used.

However, when detecting the rotation of the spool using the ball element, although it is suitable for high-speed rotation detection in terms of performance, a current always flows through the ball element in use. It is not economical because power consumption is large and battery life is shortened. Also, in the case of a reel that detects the rotation of a spool by using a lead switch, the fishing line is pulled out due to a change in the situation of the fishing spot (a sudden withdrawal of the fishing line due to a fish hit, a change in the fishing method, etc.). At times, the spool rotation speed may not be constant and may rotate at high speed.At this time, the operation by magnetic attraction is limited, and it is impossible to follow the fast rotation of the magnet, and detection with the lead switch becomes impossible. However, there is a disadvantage that the yarn length cannot be measured and displayed reliably. For example, the spool rotation speed is 2.00 to 3.00 in boat fishing.
rpm (Max 6.000 rpm), 20.000 rpm for lure-casting, 25,000 rpm for surf-casting
m, 10.000 rpm for boat throw fishing. By the way, the detection range of the lead switch is 8.000 to 10.00.
0 rpm.

[0004]

The problem to be solved is that in the case of a reel that detects the rotation of a spool by using a lead switch, a change in the situation of the fishing spot causes a drawback when the fishing line is fed. In some cases, the spool rotation speed is not constant, and the spool rotates at a high speed, so that it cannot be detected by the lead switch, and the rotation speed, the yarn length, and the like cannot be reliably measured and displayed.

An object of the present invention is to provide a fishing reel capable of detecting low-speed rotation and high-speed rotation by using a lead switch in view of the above-mentioned drawbacks.

[0006]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a rotation of a spool rotatably supported between side plates of a reel body and having a fishing line wound thereon. A first detecting device for detecting the low-speed rotation of the spool and a spur, wherein the fishing reel has a detecting device for detecting the fishing line feeding state based on a signal from the detecting device. A second detection device for detecting high-speed rotation of the
The first detecting device is provided with a magnet attached to a rotating body which rotates in conjunction with the rotation of the spool, and a first reel which is arranged to face the magnet.
The second detecting device comprises a second lead switch having a magnet attached to a decelerating rotating body which rotates the spool in conjunction with the rotation of the spool via a deceleration mechanism and disposed opposite to the magnet. The gist of the present invention is that the signals from both the detecting devices are output to the fishing line feeding state recognizing means.

In the present invention, as described in the prior art, the spool rotation speed at the time of feeding the fishing line may not be constant and may rotate at a high speed due to a change in the condition of the fishing ground.
In a detection device including a lead switch, high-speed rotation may not be detected by a lead switch.

When the actually measured line length value during fishing is input to the comparison unit 24 and the line length value stored in the storage unit 23 matches the actually measured line length value during fishing, a match signal is input from the comparison unit 24 to the control circuit 17. Then, the control signal is outputted from the control circuit 17 to the electric motor control circuit and the alarm notifying means 33 to stop the operation of feeding the fishing line of the electric motor and the alarm ON / OFF switch 30.

Since the rotation of the spool 5 is detected at 49, even if the spool rotation speed at the time of feeding the fishing line may be rotated at a high speed due to a change in the condition of the fishing spot, the detection by the lead switch is possible. At the same time, the number of revolutions, the yarn length, and the like can be measured and displayed with high accuracy.

In the above description, the reduction ratio of the reduction rotating body 9 is set to 2: 1 with respect to the gear 11 fixed to the spool shaft 4, but may be set to another ratio.
