Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a spinning reel pail return device,
In more detail, especially in out-spool type spinning reels, when a pail with a spring springing toward the winding position is locked at the release position and the bundle is rotated in the winding direction, the cam moves as the rotor rotates. This invention relates to an automatic pail reversing device in which a lock is released and the pail is reversed to the winding position, and a limit stopper is activated and the pail is not reversed when the rotation of the rotor is below a certain torque.

When a spinning reel for fishing is turned, a mechanism inside the main body rotates the rotor to which the bail is attached, and the pale winds the fishing line around the spool, and the spool reciprocates in the front and back direction, causing the fishing line to cross the spool. The bail is set to the release position to release the fishing line, and when winding the fishing line, the bundle is turned and the rotor is rotated in the winding direction, and the bail automatically moves in the winding direction. Generally, the fishing line is wound around the spool in reverse.

There are two main types of fishing spinning reels: an out-spool type in which the skirt portion of the spool fits on the outside of the rotor, and an in-spool type in which the skirt portion of the spool fits inside the rotor.

The mechanism for reversing the pail is to lock the pail in the release position with a spring springing toward the take-up position, and after release, turn the bundle and rotate the rotor in the take-up direction, and the cam inside the rotor acts. In one method, the lock is released and the pail is reversed to the winding position (hereinafter referred to as the lock method), and in the other, when the pail is moved to the release position, the pail hinge is a part of the main body (
When the bundle is turned for winding after being ejected, the rotor rotates and the pail hinge collides with the pail return, and the impact causes the pail to flip to the winding position ( (hereinafter referred to as the impact method).

In the case of the in-spool type, a locking method is mainly used, but in the case of the out-spool type, the spool skirt becomes long, which limits the space where the cam mechanism can be built in, making it difficult to use the locking method. The impact method is mainly used.

However, in the case of this impact method, when the pail is returned, an unpleasant sound and a shock are generated, so that the pail is not easily returned, and accidents such as threads becoming tangled in the pail hinge are likely to occur.

The strength of the pale hinge must also be strong enough to withstand impact.

Moreover, the out-spool type and the in-spool type each have their own characteristics, so it is difficult to discard either type depending on the preference of fishing enthusiasts.

Therefore, the general purpose of this invention is to use a locking method for the out-spool type, so that it is possible to easily return the pail without causing unpleasant noises or shocks due to impact.Moreover, when the rotation of the rotor is below a certain torque, the limit stopper can be removed. To provide an automatic pail reversing device in which pails are not reversed by operation.

That is, the pail hinge of the spinning reel is pushed toward the take-up side by a spring, the lever is inserted into the inside of the arm that supports the pail, and the lever is bent into an L shape in the direction of the rotor's rotational axis after reaching the lower part of the arm. The lever is crimped to the outside inner surface of the arm by a spring, a stopper pawl projects from the outside of the upper end of the lever, and a hole is provided on the inside surface of the hinge so that the stopper pawl engages when the pail is on the release side. A groove is cut out in the horizontal direction of the lever in the circumferential direction around the rotation axis, leaving a thick upper part, and when the lever is rotated forward, a cam fixed to the main body is placed on the trajectory drawn by the groove. The groove has a side surface that is inclined toward the rotation axis with respect to the inner surface of the rotor near the rotation axis, and when the lever rotates together with the rotor in the winding direction, the groove is attached to the side surface of the cam. A lever is provided so that when guided and passed, the lever moves in the direction of the rotation axis of the rotor and the stopper claw engaged in the mold hole is released, and a side surface opposite to the cam is provided to prevent reverse rotation of the lever. It is characterized in that a plate spring piece, which forms a plane facing the rotational axis and whose rear part is raised just in front of the cam on the trajectory drawn by the groove by forward rotation of the lever, is fixed to the main body as a limit stopper. To provide a spinning reel pail return device.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

Bundle 2 is provided on the side of casing 1, and casing 1
A disk 3 is fixedly installed in the front part of.

A piston shaft 4 that reciprocates through the center of a disk 3 and is inserted into a rotating shaft 5 is projected from inside a casing 1.

A rotor 6 is fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft 5, a spool 7 is rotatably mounted on the piston shaft 4, and a skirt 8 of the spool 7 covers the outer periphery of the rotor 6.

Arms 9a pass under the skirt 8 at symmetrical positions about the rotation axis 5 at the lower end edge of the rotor 6 and support the two pails outwardly and upwardly of the skirt 8.

9b is provided, and a pale 11 is attached via a pale hinge 10.

As described above, a spring 12 is attached to the pail hinge 10 of a so-called out-spool type spinning reel in which the spool 7 is provided outside the rotor 6, so that the pail 11 is always pushed toward the winding position. Make it.

A lever 13 is inserted into the inside of the arm 9a, and the arm 9a is bent into an L shape in the direction of the rotation axis 5 of the rotor 6 until it reaches the lower end of the arm 9a. Guide rod 1 horizontally in the direction of the rotation axis 5 of the rotor 6
5 is provided, and the guide hole 14 of the lever 13 is fitted into the guide rod 15, and the lever 13 is pressed to the outer inner surface of the arm 9a via the spring 16.

The upper end of the lever 13 is bent outward to form a stopper claw 17, and a mold hole 18 is bored in the inner surface of the pale hinge 10.
A stopper claw 17 is provided so as to engage with a mold hole 18 before the pail 11 is at the release position.

The bottom surface of the horizontal part of the lever 13 is made to slide on the top surface of the disk 3, and a groove 19 is cut out in the bottom surface of the lever 13 perpendicular to the longitudinal direction.

This groove 19 leaves the thick upper part of the lever 13 and the rotary shaft 5
Cut in the circumferential direction around the center.

As mentioned above, the disk 3 is fixed to the front part of the casing 1, and as the lever 13 on the disk 3 rotates, the cam 20 is fixedly installed on the trajectory drawn by the groove 19.

The cam 20 has a substantially triangular shape, and is provided with a side surface 22 that is inclined in the direction of the rotation axis 5 with respect to the orbital circumference formed by the inner surface 21 of the groove 19 near the rotation axis 5, and the lever 13 is wound together with the rotor 6. As the lever 13 rotates in the direction, the inner surface 21 of the groove 19 is guided by the side surface 22 of the cam 20, and the lever 13 as a whole moves in the direction of the rotating shaft 5.

The side surface of the cam 20 opposite to the side surface 22 is a vertical plane facing the rotating shaft 5, and when the bundle 2 is to be rotated in the anti-winding direction, it hits the side surface of the tip of the lever 13 on the rotating shaft 5 side. It has a function to prevent this.

A leaf spring piece 23 is provided on the same circumference as the upper cam 20 of the disk 3 and at a position in front of the cam 20. The front half of this leaf spring piece 23 is fixed to the surface of the disk 3, and the rear half is slightly attached to the upper surface of the groove 19. Let it float horizontally to a high position.

This plate spring piece 23 prevents the groove 19 from passing through against the spring pressure of the plate spring piece 23 when the rotation of the rotor 6 is below a certain torque, and only when the rotation of the rotor 6 exceeds a certain torque. It is adapted to be acted upon by the cam 20 and is referred to herein as a limit stopper 23.

The operation of the above embodiment according to the present invention will be explained.

When the pail 11 is set to the release position, the pail hinge 10 rotates and the mold hole 18 comes to the position of the stopper pawl 17 of the lever 13, the stopper pawl 17 engages with the mold hole 18, and the pail hinge 10 is moved by the action of the spring 12. It is locked while being pushed in the direction of the winding position.

When the bundle 2 is turned and the rotor 6 is rotated in the winding direction, the groove 19 of the lever 13 passes over the leaf spring piece 23 and is guided by the cam 20, and the entire lever 13 moves in the direction of the rotating shaft 5. The stopper claw 17 disengages from the mold cavity 18 to release the pail hinge 10, and the pail 11 is automatically reversed to the winding position by the spring 12, and winding is started.

When there is no intention of winding, such as when the fishing line is being released, the limit stopper 23 prevents the pail 11 from being reversed to the winding position even if the bundle 2 is rotated in the winding direction due to some action.

Further, the side surface of the lever 13 comes into contact with the side surface of the cam 20 on the anti-winding side to reliably prevent rotation toward the anti-winding side.

The pail return device for an out-spool type spinning reel according to the present invention is configured as described above, and since the pail 11 is reversed by the action of the cam, it is possible to easily return the pail without causing unpleasant noises or shocks caused by impact. .

Moreover, as the limit stopper, we have adopted an extremely inexpensive and simple plate spring piece, so that even if the bundle rotates in the fishing line winding direction due to the action of some weak force such as inertia while the fishing line is being released, the lever groove will not stop. It smoothly hits the leaf spring piece that is the limit stopper without any impact force, preventing the lever from rotating and operating, and preventing the pail from being reversed to the winding position.

Therefore, accidents such as breaking of the fishing line and losing the fishing tackle can be reliably prevented, and the limit stopper made of the leaf spring piece can be set to such a stopping force that its presence is hardly felt during normal pail return.

Note that it is also possible to employ a pail return device having the above configuration in a pail return device for an in-spool type spinning reel.

In that case, the lever for reversing the pale can be inserted through the inside of the arm, so there is no need to cut out the rotor side wall and protrude the rotation stopper of the pale hinge as in the conventional case, and dust can enter through the cutout. It is also effective in preventing accidents such as threads getting tangled with the rotation stopper.

Although the present invention has been variously explained above with reference to preferred embodiments, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and it goes without saying that many modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. It is.
