2. Description of the Related Art Generally, a dual-bearing reel has a handle,
A reel main body in which the spool is rotatably supported, and a spool rotation handle arranged on the side of the reel main body,
And a star drag (an example of a braking operation mechanism) for drag adjustment arranged on the reel body side of the handle. The handle arm of the handle is fixed to the tip of the handle shaft by a nut, and a retainer for screwing the nut is screwed to the outer surface of the handle arm. The star drag is screwed on the handle shaft, and by rotating the star drag, the degree of contact of a drag plate (an example of a braking mechanism) provided inside the reel unit can be adjusted to adjust the drag force.

A double-bearing reel of this type is conventionally known in which a sounding mechanism is provided between a star drag and a handle arm when the star drag is operated.

The conventional sounding mechanism includes a sound producing pin housed in a retainer attached to a handle, a sound producing member non-rotatably attached to a star drag, and a coil for urging the sound producing pin toward the sound producing member. It is equipped with a spring. The sound producing pin has a head portion and a shaft portion having a diameter smaller than that of the head portion, and is arranged along the handle shaft with the head portion facing the sound producing member. The sound output pin penetrates a through hole provided in the handle arm and is housed in the through hole and the retainer. A large number of sound emitting holes are formed in the sound producing member at positions facing the sound producing pins at intervals in the circumferential direction. The sound producing member is attached to the star drag so as to be movable in the axial direction. The coil spring is arranged outside the sound producing pin, and one end of the coil spring is in contact with the head of the sound producing pin.

In this sounding mechanism, when the star drag is operated and relatively rotated with respect to the handle, the sound producing pin urged toward the sound producing member repeatedly strikes the sound producing hole to produce sound.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In the above conventional configuration,
For example, if you remove the retainer to disassemble the handle,
Of the sounding mechanism, the sound output pin and the coil spring housed in the retainer and the through hole pop out from the handle arm, and the sounding mechanism is easily disassembled. Since the sound output pin and the coil spring are very small parts, they may be difficult to find if they come off.

Therefore, it is conceivable to provide the star drag with a sounding mechanism. However, even if a sound generating mechanism is provided in the star drag, the problem similar to the above-mentioned problem occurs in a configuration in which the sound generating mechanism is disassembled when the star drag is disassembled.

An object of the present invention is to prevent the sounding mechanism from being disassembled even if the member on which the sounding mechanism is mounted is disassembled.

The sound output pin 59 has the same structure as the sound output pin 47 of the first sounding mechanism 34, and is housed in the round hole 57d so as to be movable back and forth. The sound producing pin 59 has a hemispherical convex head portion 59a having a smooth tip, a receiving portion 59b formed continuously from the head portion 59a and having a larger diameter than the head portion 59a, and the receiving portion 5
9b, which has a smaller diameter than the receiving portion 59b and is formed continuously with 9b.
9c and. This head 59a is a coil spring 60
It is possible to contact the sound output hole 55a by being urged by. The coil spring 60 is arranged on the outer peripheral side of the shaft portion 59c and has one end abutting against the head portion 59a and the other end abutting against the bottom wall of the round hole 57d.

Here, the sound output pin 59 is provided in the storage member 57.
The sound producing member 55 and the accommodating member 57 are accommodated in the braking cap 52 while the coil spring 60 is accommodated, and the screw member 58 is screwed into the braking cap 52, so that the sound producing member 55 cannot rotate in the braking cap 52. The storage member 57 is mounted immovably in the axial direction, and the storage member 57 is mounted in the braking cap 52 so as to be rotatable and immovable in the axial direction. Moreover, the sound producing pin 59 is closed by the sound producing member 55 and does not fall off. Therefore, even if the braking cap 52 is removed from the boss portion 6c, the second sounding mechanism 53 is not disassembled.

Moreover, the second sounding mechanism 53 is attached to the spool shaft 1
Since the sound producing member 55 is disposed on the outer peripheral side of the base plate 6 continuously with the boss portion 6c and is non-rotatably provided on the braking knob 52, the radial and axial dimensions of the casting control mechanism 22 can be kept small. Therefore, the casting control mechanism 22 having a sound producing function can be arranged in a relatively narrow space limited by the star drag 3 and the handle shaft 30.

As shown in FIG. 3, the centrifugal brake mechanism 23 includes a brake case 65, a rotating portion 66 provided in the brake case 65, and a rotating portion 66 circumferentially spaced from the rotating portion 66 in the radial direction. Slider 67 movably mounted
And have. A cylindrical brake liner 65a capable of contacting the slider 67 is fixed to the inner peripheral surface of the brake case 65. The brake case 65 is detachably attached to the circular opening 5d formed in the side plate 5a and swings together with the first side cover 6a.

Next, a method of operating the reel will be described.
In a normal state, the clutch yoke 40 has the spring 42.
Is pushed inward (to the left in FIG. 3), and the pinion gear 32 is thereby moved to the engagement position.
In this state, the meshing portion 32b of the pinion gear 32 and the engagement pin 16b of the spool shaft 16 mesh with each other, and the clutch is in the on state. And is transmitted to the spool 12 via the spool shaft 16, and the spool 12 rotates in the yarn winding direction.

When casting is performed, the braking force is adjusted to suppress backlash. Here, for example, it is preferable to adjust the braking force according to the mass of the lure (device). Specifically, the braking force is increased when the mass of the lure is large, and is decreased when the mass is small.
Adjustment of the braking force for suppressing backlash is performed by the casting control mechanism 22 or the centrifugal brake mechanism 2.
Do in 3. When the braking force is adjusted by the casting control mechanism 22, the braking cap 52 is rotated clockwise, for example. Then, the braking cap 52 screwed to the male screw portion 6d advances to the left side in FIG. 6, the gap between the friction plates 51 becomes narrower, and the braking force on the spool shaft 16 becomes stronger.
On the other hand, when it is rotated counterclockwise, the braking force becomes weak. When the braking cap 52 is thus rotated, the sound producing member 55 rotates together with the braking cap 52. On the other hand, the sound output pin 59 housed in the housing member 57 locked to the boss portion 6c does not rotate, so that the sound output pin 59 repeatedly collides with the sound output hole 55a and sounds.

After adjusting the braking force, the clutch lever 17 is pushed downward. Here, the clutch lever 17 is
The side plates 5a and 5b move to the lower detached position along the elongated holes. The movement of the clutch lever 17 causes the clutch yoke 40 to move outward, and the pinion gear 32 engaged with the clutch yoke 40 also moves in the same direction. As a result, the meshing portion 32b of the pinion gear 32 and the engagement pin 16b of the spool shaft 16 are disengaged, and the clutch is turned off. In this clutch-off state, the rotation from the handle shaft 30 is not transmitted to the spool 12 and the spool shaft 16, and the spool 12 is in a free rotation state. When the clutch is off, the reel is tilted in the axial direction so that the spool shaft 16 follows the vertical plane while the spool is summed with the thumb placed on the clutch lever 17, and the fishing rod is shaken.
The lure is thrown, and the spool 12 vigorously rotates in the line feeding direction.

In such a state, the rotation of the spool 12 causes the spool shaft 16 to rotate in the yarn feeding direction, and the rotation is transmitted to the rotating member 66. When the rotating member 66 rotates, the slider 67 comes into sliding contact with the brake liner 65a and the centrifugal brake mechanism 23 brakes the spool 12. At the same time, the spool shaft 16 is braked by the casting control mechanism 22 to prevent backlash.

When the device touches the water, the handle 2 is rotated. Then, the clutch is turned on by a return mechanism (not shown). In this state, for example, retrieve is repeated to wait for a fish hit. When the fish hits, the handle 2 is rotated to wind up the fishing line. At this time, it may be necessary to adjust the drag force depending on the size of the fish. At this time, the star drag 3 is rotated clockwise or counterclockwise to adjust the drag force. When the star drag 3 is rotated, the nut portion 36 moves forward and backward in the axial direction, and the drag force changes. At this time, the sound producing member 37 is attached to the handle shaft 30.
It does not rotate because it is locked in. Therefore, the sound producing pin 47 repeatedly sounds the collision with the sound producing hole 37a.

On the other hand, the star drag 3 is used for reasons such as cleaning.
When disassembling, the screw 2e is first removed and the handle arm 2a is removed from the handle shaft. Then nut 2d
Is removed from the handle shaft 30 and the seat plate 2c is removed.
By removing the seat plate 2c, the operation portion main body 35 of the star drag 3 can be removed from the handle shaft 30. At this time, since the sound producing member 37 is attached by the spring member 39 so as not to fall off from the operation portion main body 35,
The sounding mechanism 34 will not be disassembled. In order to disassemble the first sounding mechanism 34, the spring member 39 is attached to the operation portion main body 35.
You can remove it from the.

Further, the casting control mechanism 2
When disassembling 2, the braking cap 52 is first rotated counterclockwise and removed from the boss portion 6c. In this state, the storage member 57 is locked by the screw member 58 into the braking cap 5.
The second sounding mechanism 53 is not disassembled because the second sounding mechanism 53 is mounted so as not to drop from the second sound generator 2. The second sounding mechanism 5
In order to disassemble 3, the screw member 58 may be removed from the braking cap 52.
