When the clutch members abut against the inclined surface portion 90b of the pawl portion 90 of 91, the clutch members follow the inclined surface portion 90b and come closer to each other, so that the vertical surface portions 90a of the claw portions 90 can be engaged with each other, Simultaneously with the engagement, the spool shaft 30 can be rotated.
Considering that the clutch member 92 of the flexible shaft 52 is rotated and engaged with the clutch member 91 of the spool shaft 30, the number of claw portions 90 is preferably about two to four. .
When the number of claw portions 90 is large, the interval between the claw portions 90 on the clutch members 91 and 92 becomes narrow, so even if the claw portion 90 has the inclined surface portion 90b, the claw portion 90 of the rotating clutch member 92 and the rotating clutch member 92 do not rotate. The pawl portion 90 of the clutch member 91 that is not engaged with the clutch member 91 tends to repel each other, making it difficult to engage.

In addition, the connecting portion 55 and the connected portion 15 are connected by the magnetic force of the magnet 55a, and the connection can be quickly released. By removing the connecting portion 55 from the portion 15 and disengaging the clutch member 92 of the flexible shaft 52 and the clutch member 91 of the spool shaft 30, the motor power portion 50 can be disconnected from the reel body portion 10.

When using the fishing reel 100 having such a configuration as a manual reel, as shown in FIGS. The power section 50 is separated from the spool shaft 30 .
When the handle 40 of the fishing reel 100 is rotated in a predetermined direction, the rotational force is transmitted through the first handle shaft 41, the first gear 41a, the second gear 42a, the second handle shaft 42, and the first rotation transmission mechanism. 60 and the spool 20 (internal gear 21a), so that the spool 20 can be rotated.
In this way, the driving force that rotates the handle 40 of the fishing reel 100 is transmitted to the spool 20, so that the spool 20 can be rotated and the fishing line can be wound on the spool 20. - 特許庁

When using this fishing reel 100 as an electric reel, as shown in FIGS. The member 92 is engaged with the clutch member 91 of the spool shaft 30 to connect the motor power section 50 to the spool shaft 30 .

When the fishing reel 100 is used as an electric reel, the location where the motor 51 is installed is arbitrary. You can

Thus, the fishing reel 100 of this embodiment can be used both as a manual reel and as an electric reel.

In particular, since the fishing reel 100 of the present embodiment enables the connecting portion 55 and the connected portion 15 to be connected by the magnetic force of the magnet 55a, it is possible to easily switch between connection and disconnection.
Then, by releasing the connection between the connecting portion 55 and the connected portion 15, the engagement between the clutch member 92 of the flexible shaft 52 and the clutch member 91 of the spool shaft 30 is released and used as a manual reel; By connecting the portion 55 and the connected portion 15, the clutch member 92 of the flexible shaft 52 and the clutch member 91 of the spool shaft 30 can be engaged to quickly switch between use as an electric reel.
Furthermore, as described above, the fishing reel 100 of the present embodiment can operate with the connecting portion 55 even when the motor power portion 50 is in operation and the clutch member 92 of the flexible shaft 52 is rotating. Since the connected portion 15 can be connected or the connection between the connecting portion 55 and the connected portion 15 can be released, it is possible to more quickly switch between the usage mode as a manual reel and the usage mode as an electric reel. can.
