Description

[0001]
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a fishing reel provided with a line length measuring device for measuring a line length of a fishing line (a feeding amount and a winding amount of the fishing line).
[0002]
[Prior art]
2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, many fishing reels measure a line length from a detected value of the number of rotations of a rotating body (for example, a spool) which rotates by feeding a fishing line, and display the line length on a display on an upper part of the reel body. A length measuring device is provided, and the angler can set out a gimmick at a predetermined shelf position based on the display on the display.
[0003]
By the way, as a shelving method when fishing is carried out by pulling out a device to a predetermined shelf position, in addition to a method of drawing out a device to a predetermined depth based on the water surface, depending on the type of fish, shelving is performed aiming at a point near the water bottom. There are methods and they are used as appropriate.
In the shelf picking method aiming at a point near the water bottom, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 5-9273, a yarn length display portion for displaying a yarn length value from the water surface is provided on a display on the upper portion of the reel body. Or, a fishing reel having a bottom / shelf empty display portion for displaying a thread length value from a shelf is widely used. According to this fishing reel, a handle is wound up after the device has settled. After removing the dandruff by operation and bottoming out, and operating the reset switch on the operation panel to set the display value of the bottom / shelf empty display to zero, the display of the bottom / shelf empty display is displayed. By winding the fishing line by a predetermined amount, shelves can be taken from the bottom of the water.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, the switch operation at the bottom of the water and the visual shelving operation described above cannot be easily performed on a swaying ship.
In addition, after removing the dandruff by operating the handle and setting the bottom / shelf empty display to zero display by operating the switch, the device is settled until the fishing line is wound again by operating the handle and shelving starts. However, if these series of operations take a long time, the danger of rooting increases if the water bottom is a rough rugged place.
[0005]
Then, in order to avoid such rooting, it is necessary to perform a quick winding operation after landing, so that the above-mentioned fishing reel cannot quickly and reliably take shelves and cannot reliably hit a fish. Challenges remained.
The present invention has been devised in view of such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a fishing reel that enables quick shelving after the bottom of a tackle.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve the above object, a fishing reel according to claim 1 has a spool rotatably supported by a reel body and a rotation detection device that detects a rotation direction and a rotation speed of a rotating body that rotates by feeding a fishing line. Means, a yarn length measuring means for measuring the yarn length based on the detection value of the rotation detecting means, and displaying the yarn length on a display mounted on the reel body, a rotation direction and a rotation speed of the rotating body, Storage means for storing predetermined conditions set with respect to the yarn length; notification means for notifying the angler of the winding state; detection values and measurement values obtained from the rotation detection means and the yarn length measurement means satisfying the predetermined conditions. And control means for activating the notifying means for each unit winding length of the fishing line when the number of times has reached.
[0007]
According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the fishing reel according to the first aspect, the display includes a thread length display portion for displaying a thread length from the water surface, and a thread length from the water bottom or a shelf. The bottom / shelf empty display section to be displayed is disposed adjacent to the control section, and the control section sets the bottom / shelf empty display section to zero when the detected value and the measured value of the rotation detecting section and the yarn length measuring section reach predetermined conditions of the storage section. It is characterized by displaying.
[0008]
According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the fishing reel according to the first or second aspect, the predetermined condition is a condition to be regarded as a landing of a device.
[0009]
(Action)
According to the fishing reel of the present invention, when the detected value and the measured value obtained from the rotation detecting means and the line length measuring means reach predetermined conditions, the control means sets the notifying means to the unit winding length of the fishing line. It will be activated every time.
[0010]
According to the second aspect of the present invention, when the detected value and the measured value of the rotation detecting means and the yarn length measuring means reach predetermined conditions of the storage means, the control means displays the bottom / shelf empty display of the display.

[0011]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
[0012]
FIG. 1 shows a fishing reel according to one embodiment of the present invention. In the drawing, reference numeral 1 denotes a spool rotatably supported between side plates 7 and 9 of a reel body 5 via a spool shaft 3. Reference numeral 11 denotes a handle mounted on the side of the side plate 9, and a well-known power transmission mechanism 17 and a clutch mechanism 19 including a drive gear 13 and a pinion gear 15 are provided between the handle 11 and the spool 1. It is installed.
[0013]
A clutch lever 21 of a clutch mechanism 19 is mounted behind the side plate 9, and the clutch mechanism 19 is switched to ON / OFF by operating the clutch lever 21, and the clutch 1 is switched to the spool 1 by the power transmission mechanism 17. The driving force of the handle 11 is transmitted / cut off.
A magnet 23 is mounted on one side of the spool 1, and a pair of reed switches 27 are mounted on a frame 25 of the reel body 5 so as to face the rotation trajectory of the magnet 23. A rotation detecting means 29 for detecting the rotation direction and the number of rotations is constituted. As shown in FIG. 2, each reed switch 27 is provided with a microcomputer in a control box 31 mounted between the side plates 7 and 9 on the upper part of the reel body 5. 33.
[0014]
In the ROM of the microcomputer 33, a line length measuring method similar to that of the fishing reel disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 5-103567 is programmed, and the CPU of the microcomputer 33 is output from the reed switch 27. The determination signal of the forward rotation and the reverse rotation of the spool 1 is taken in to determine whether the fishing line is to be fed or wound, and the rotation pulse signal of the spool 1 taken in from the reed switch 27 is counted by an up / down counter. The thread length calculation formula stored in the ROM is calculated and executed.
[0015]
As shown in FIG. 1, a display 37 is mounted on the operation panel 35 on the control box 31, and the CPU displays the calculated thread length measurement value on the display 37 via the display drive circuit 39. It has become.
[0016]
Thus, similarly to the fishing reel disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open Publication No. 5-9273, the fishing reel 41 according to the present embodiment also displays the amount of fishing line fed from the water surface as shown in FIG. A thread length display section 37a and a bottom / shelf empty display section 37b are vertically arranged adjacent to each other in the display 37 so that they can be identified from above.
Hereinafter, the display operation of the thread length display section 37a and the bottom / shelf empty display section 37b will be described. First, as shown in FIG. When the spool 1 is set in the spool free state by the clutch OFF operation, the fishing line 47 is sequentially fed from the spool 1 by the weight of the weight attached to the device and starts to descend from the rod tip.
[0017]
When the fishing line 47 is paid out in this manner, the CPU of the microcomputer 33 calculates the line length based on the rotation pulse signal from the reed switch 27, and calculates the line length with the line length display portion 37a and the bottom / shelf. The color is displayed on the color display section 37b.
Therefore, when the fishing line 47 is paid out from the rod tip to the water surface 49 of 3.0 m as shown in FIG. 4, for example, as shown in FIG. 3, the line length display portion 37a and the bottom / shelf empty display portion 37b display "3. 0 (m) "is displayed.
[0018]
Also, as shown in FIG. 1, a reset switch 51 and an alarm (notifying means) 53 are mounted on the operation panel 35 adjacent to the display 37, and the fishing line 47 is paid out to the water surface 49 as described above. When the angler operates the reset switch 51 at this point, the display value of the thread length display portion 37a is reset to "0.0 (m)" (zero display) as shown in FIG.
[0019]
Thereafter, when the angler further extends the fishing line 47, the CPU calculates the line length based on the rotation pulse signal from the reed switch 27, and displays this on the line length display section 37a and the bottom / shelf empty display section 37b. However, when the tackle reaches the water bottom 55, the feeding of the fishing line 47 stops, so that the rotation of the spool 1 stops and the counting operation by the up / down counter also stops. At this time, if the water depth is 125.0 m, the display contents of the yarn length display portion 37a and the bottom / shelf empty display portion 37b are as shown in FIG.
[0020]
By the way, as described above, in the conventional shelving method that aims at the point near the water bottom, after the gimmick has settled, remove the dandruff by taking up the handle and take the bottom, and operate the reset switch on the operation panel After the display value of the bottom / shelf empty display section is set to zero, the fishing line is wound up by a predetermined amount while looking at the display of the bottom / shelf empty display section, so that shelving from the water bottom was performed. Switch operation and visual shelving on the swaying ship is not easy, and the handle is used to remove the dandruff, the switch is operated to set the bottom / shelf empty display to zero, and then the handle is used to wind the fishing line again. There is a risk that rooting may occur before taking and taking shelves.
[0021]
In view of such circumstances, the present embodiment stores the following first predetermined condition in the ROM of the microcomputer 33, which is automatically regarded as the bottom of the device,
First predetermined condition: "When the payout line length of the fishing line is 10.0 m or more and the spool continuously rotates in the winding direction for a predetermined number of rotations (3 rotations) or more"
Is set and stored in advance at the factory shipment stage.
[0022]
For this reason, when the device reaches the water bottom 55 and the feeding of the fishing line 47 stops, the angler switches the spool 1 to the fishing line winding state by operating the clutch lever 21 and winds the handle 11 in order to remove the line dander. When the CPU of the microcomputer 33 determines that the detection value and the yarn length measurement value have reached the above-described predetermined condition based on the detection value of the rotation detection means 29 and the yarn length measurement value described above, as shown in FIG. The display value of the bottom / shelf empty display section 37b is automatically reset to "0.0 (m)" (zero display), and thereafter, an alarm is issued via the alarm drive circuit 57 with the winding operation of the handle 11. 53 is operated for each unit winding length of the fishing line 47 (in this embodiment, every 1 m).
[0023]
Then, the CPU stops the operation of the alarm 53 when a preset time (for example, 20 seconds) elapses from the count value of the timer built in the microcomputer 33.
Accordingly, assuming that the shelf position A is 10 m from the water bottom 55 as shown in FIG. 4, after landing, the angler rotates the spool 1 in the winding direction by operating the handle to wind the fishing line 47 by 10 m. When the angler spins the spool 1 continuously three times or more in the winding direction in order to remove the dandruff, the display value of the bottom / shelf empty display portion 37b is automatically changed without operating the reset switch as in the related art. The alarm is reset to "0.0 (m)", and thereafter, the alarm 53 is activated for each unit winding length in accordance with the winding, and the angler can perform the shelving according to the alarm sound. Is the display content of FIG.
[0024]
Then, when the fishing line 47 is wound up to the water surface 49 after a hit, the display 37 has the display content of FIG. 9. However, the fishing reel 41 according to the present embodiment further winds the fishing line 47. In consideration of the protection of the rod tip accompanying the above, when the fishing line 47 is wound up to the boat stop position B (2.0 m below the water surface 49 in this embodiment) as shown in FIG. It is designed to work.
[0025]
Accordingly, the angler can recognize that the winding has been completed to the boat stop position B by the operation of the alarm 53, but whether the winding has stopped at the boat stop position B, and whether the spool 1 The rotation direction can be determined by the CPU by the detection of the rotation detecting means 29.
Therefore, in the ROM of the microcomputer 33, in addition to the above-described first predetermined condition, the following second predetermined condition to be regarded as the bottom of the device is set:
Second predetermined condition: "After stopping the boat, the spool 1 is rotated in the feeding direction for a predetermined time (10 m, 50 rotations) or more, and after a predetermined time (10 seconds) or more, the spool is rotated three times or more in the winding direction. When rotating continuously "
Is set and stored in advance at the factory shipment stage.
[0026]
When the angler winds up the fishing line 47 after stopping the boat, the above-described first predetermined condition takes precedence. However, when the spool 1 rotates in the feeding direction after the boat stops, the second predetermined condition is applied. Is given priority.
When the CPU determines that the time value of the timer, the detection value of the rotation detecting means 29, and the yarn length measurement value have reached the second predetermined condition, the CPU automatically changes the display value of the bottom / shelf empty display section 37b. Thereafter, the alarm 53 is reset to "0.0 (m)", and thereafter, the alarm 53 is activated for each unit winding length (1 m) of the fishing line via the alarm drive circuit 57. Then, the CPU stops the operation of the alarm 53 when the preset time (20 seconds) elapses, and thereafter, the angler does not stop winding the fishing line 47 at the boat stop position B, or after the boat stop, The first predetermined condition is prioritized when the fishing line 47 is wound, and the second predetermined condition is prioritized when the fishing line 47 is paid out after stopping the boat.
[0027]
Since the present embodiment is configured as described above, if the angler pulls out the fishing line 47 from the spool 1 at the start of actual fishing, the CPU measures the line length based on the rotation pulse signal of the spool 1 taken in from the reed switch 27. Then, the yarn length measurement value is displayed on the yarn length display section 37a and the bottom / shelf empty display section 37b.
When the fisherman operates the reset switch 51 where the fishing line 47 has been extended from the rod tip to the water surface 49 of 3.0 m as shown in FIG. 4, the display value of the line length display portion 37a becomes "0" as shown in FIG. .0 (m) ".
[0028]
Thereafter, when the angler further extends the fishing line 47, the CPU calculates the line length based on the rotation pulse signal from the reed switch 27, and displays this on the line length display section 37a and the bottom / shelf empty display section 37b. However, when the tackle reaches the water bottom 55, the feeding of the fishing line 47 stops, so that the rotation of the spool 1 stops and the counting operation by the up / down counter also stops.
[0029]
Thus, when the device reaches the water bottom 55 and the feeding of the fishing line 47 is stopped, the angler winds up the handle 11 to remove the dandruff. As described above, the CPU uses the rotation detecting means. When it is determined that the detected value of No. 29 and the yarn length measurement value have reached the first predetermined condition, the display value of the bottom / shelf empty display section 37b is automatically set to "0.0 (m)" as shown in FIG. After that, the alarm 53 is activated for each unit winding length of the fishing line 47 via the alarm drive circuit 57, so that the angler can take shelves in accordance with the alarm sound. Display contents.
[0030]
After that, when the fishing line 47 is wound up to the water surface 49 with a hit, the display 37 has the display content of FIG.
In addition, the alarm 53 is activated when the fishing line 47 is wound up to the boat stop position B with the winding, but the angler does not stop the winding of the fishing line 47 at the boat stop position B, When the fishing line 47 is wound up after stopping the boat, the first predetermined condition takes precedence.
[0031]
On the other hand, when the spool 1 rotates in the payout direction after stopping the boatboat, the second predetermined condition takes precedence, and the CPU counts the time value of the timer, the detection value of the rotation detecting means 29, and the yarn length measurement value. Is determined, the display value of the bottom / shelf empty display portion 37b is automatically reset to "0.0 (m)", and thereafter, the alarm 53 is output via the alarm driving circuit 57 to the fishing line. It is activated every unit winding length (every 1m). As described above, when the angler does not stop the winding of the fishing line 47 at the boat stop position B, or when the fishing line 47 is wound up after the boat stop, the first predetermined condition takes precedence, and When the fishing line 47 is paid out after the sliding stop, the second predetermined condition is maintained.
[0032]
As described above, according to the present embodiment, the bottom / shelf empty display portion 37b is automatically displayed as zero after the device has settled, and the amount of winding from the water bottom 55 is checked while the alarm 53 confirms after the device has settled. Since it can be easily checked, after removing the dandruff and taking the bottom, the reset switch is operated and the display value of the bottom / shelf empty display section is set to zero so that there is no need for extra operation in the past. The shelving after landing is quick and easy on the swaying ship without relying on visuals. As a result, the probability of hitting the fish is significantly improved, and the time for placing the gimmicks on the water bottom 55 can be shortened. As a result, it is possible to remarkably reduce the occurrence of rooting.
[0033]
In the above embodiment, the first and second predetermined conditions are simultaneously set and stored in the ROM. However, only one of the predetermined conditions may be set and stored in the ROM.
Further, instead of the above-described first and second predetermined conditions, for example, the following third predetermined condition which is regarded as a landing,
Third predetermined condition: "When the spool continuously rotates in the winding direction at a predetermined rotation speed (3 rotations) or more at the ship-slip stop position B + the predetermined feeding amount (Xm)"
May be set and stored in the ROM.
[0034]
Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 1, a shelf memo switch 59 is mounted on the operation panel 35, and when the fishing line 47 is extended by, for example, 115 m, the shelf memo switch 59 is operated. Becomes “0.0 m”, and the depth 115 m can be stored in the RAM as the shelf position, and the following fourth predetermined condition that is regarded as the landing is:
Fourth predetermined condition: "When the spool continuously rotates in the winding direction by a predetermined number of revolutions (3 rotations) or more at a shelf set value + a predetermined feeding amount (Xm)"
May be set and stored in the ROM.
[0035]
Thus, although not shown, it is possible to achieve the intended purpose by these embodiments as well as the embodiment of FIG.
In the embodiment of FIG. 1, the alarm 53 is used as the notification means. However, for example, a notification means such as vibration, light, and voice may be used, and the present invention is also applied to an electric reel for fishing. Of course, you can.
[0036]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the fishing reel of the present invention, the amount of winding from the water bottom can be easily grasped after checking the thread dandruff and the bottom cutting by the notification means after the landing of the device. As a result, shelving after landing is quicker without extra operation than before, and it can be easily performed without relying on the sight on a shaking ship.As a result, the probability of hitting fish is significantly improved, and Since the placing time can be shortened, the occurrence of rooting can be significantly reduced as compared with the related art.
[0037]
According to the second aspect of the present invention, since the bottom / shelf empty display section is automatically set to zero display at a place where the predetermined condition is met, the reset switch is provided after the thread dandruff is removed and the bottom is removed. Has the advantage of eliminating the need for a conventional operation such as operating to set the display value of the bottom / shelf empty display to zero.
