Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial field of application) The present invention relates to a fishing reel used for fishing.

(Prior Art) Generally, in a fishing reel, as shown in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 60-168375, a spool around which fishing line is wound is rotatably supported with respect to a reel body via a spool shaft. Is provided with a drag mechanism that applies a braking force to the rotation of the spool, and the braking force of the drag mechanism is adjusted by rotating the adjustment body of the drag mechanism, and a predetermined braking force is applied to the rotation of the spool. ing.

Then, the initial braking force of the drag mechanism is set in advance by the rotation operation of the adjusting body according to the target fish.

However, the present applicant first made the spool freely rotatable within a certain range with respect to the spool shaft, provided an elastic body between the spool and the spool shaft, and provided a pointer on one of the spool and the spool shaft. Corresponding to the guideline on the other side,
By providing a display unit for displaying the braking force of the drag mechanism,
When the elastic restoring force of the elastic body becomes larger than the force balancing the braking force of the drag mechanism by rotating the spool against the elastic body, the spool shaft rotates together with the spool, We have proposed a device in which the accurate braking force of the drag mechanism can be confirmed by reading the display unit that coincides with the pointer at this co-rotation point (Japanese Patent Application No. 62-77882).

(Problems to be solved by the invention) However, in this fishing reel, the spool is biased in the direction opposite to the direction in which the fishing line wound around the spool is drawn out, and in the direction opposite to the direction in which the fishing line is drawn out with respect to the spool shaft. The rotation of the spool in the direction of the line is blocked and the spool is rotated in the fishing line withdrawal direction so that the correct braking force of the drag mechanism can be confirmed. There is a problem that the spool will rotate relative to the spool shaft within the rotation range against the elastic body,
Further, in order to solve this problem, an extra locking device for locking the rotation of the spool with respect to the spool shaft in the fishing line withdrawal direction is required.

In the reel configured as described above, the first adjusting body (23) is rotated before fishing, and the braking force of the first drag mechanism (20) is preset according to the target fish as follows. is there.

That is, when setting the braking force of the first drag mechanism (20),
First, the engaging member (35) in the second adjusting body (33)
By previously engaging with the engaging recess (16) of the support cylinder (11),
The second adjusting body (33) is located at a substantially central position in the operation range regulated by the regulating portions (14) and (15). In this case, since the engagement member (35) is biased by the coil spring (36) in the direction in which the engagement member (35) is engaged with the engagement recess (16), the second adjustment body (33) can be rotated. Since the click feeling when the engaging member (35) engages with the engaging recess (16), the engagement of the engaging member (35) with the engaging recess (16) can be easily known. In addition, the second adjusting body (33) can be accurately and surely positioned at the approximate center position of the operation range. Further, for example, by providing a reference portion (17) and a position setting portion (37) between the second adjusting member (33) and the reel body (1) as shown in FIG. 4, the second adjusting member ( It is possible to easily visually recognize that 33) is at the center position of the adjustment operation range.

Then, after the second adjusting body (33) is positioned at the center position of the operation range, the first adjusting body (23) is rotated to target the braking force of the first drag mechanism (20). The optimum braking force is set according to the fish. When the first adjusting body (23) is rotated, the first and second adjusting bodies (23) are rotated.
The rotating cylinders (10), which support the spool shaft side second braking members (22), are pressed against the braking members (21) and (22), and are slidably fitted in the rotating cylinders (10) only in the axial direction. A predetermined braking force can be applied to the rotation of the inserted spool shaft (5).

Therefore, in order to confirm the set braking force, the spool (6) is attached to the spool shaft (5) by an elastic body (4).
The spool (6) is rotated in the direction opposite to the drawing direction (the arrow X direction in FIGS. 2 and 3) of the fishing line against the elastic restoring force of (0) and in the direction opposite the arrow Y direction in FIGS. Due to
When the elastic restoring force of the elastic body (40) becomes larger than the force balancing the braking force set by the first drag mechanism (20), the spool shaft (5) causes the drag mechanism (20) to move.
Therefore, the braking force of 1 is overcome and the spool (6) rotates together.

Then, the display portion (5) that coincides with the pointer (60) at the point where the spool shaft (5) rotates together with the spool (6).
By reading 0), the accurate braking force of the drag mechanism (20) can be known.

After confirming this braking force, the spool (6)
As shown in FIG. 2, the elastic restoring force of the elastic body (40) automatically returns to the fishing line withdrawal direction, and the engaging portion (6) of the spool (6) is returned.
a) engages with the first restricting portion (5a) of the spool receiver (51), and further rotation in the fishing line withdrawal direction is prevented. Therefore, when fishing, the load acting on the fishing line,
That is, it is possible to reliably prevent the spool (6) from rotating in the fishing line withdrawing direction due to the pulling force of the fish caught on the needle.

When fishing, the second adjusting body (33) is rotated according to the load acting on the fishing line to increase or decrease the braking force set by the first drag mechanism (20). To do.

That is, the second adjusting body (33) is replaced with the first regulating portion (14).
By rotating in the direction, the braking force set by the first drag mechanism (20) can be reduced, and
By maximally rotating the second adjusting body (33) in the direction of the first restricting portion (14), the braking force set by the first drag mechanism (20) can be changed to the minimum braking force. Further, the braking force set by the first drag mechanism (20) can be increased by rotating the second adjusting body (33) in the direction of the second restricting portion (15), and the second adjusting body (33) can be increased. By rotating the second adjusting body (33) to the maximum extent in the direction of the second restricting portion (15),
The braking force set by the drag mechanism (20) can be changed to the maximum braking force. Therefore, the braking force does not become too small or too large, and the fishing line is not cut by the braking force set by the first drag mechanism (20), so that the fishing result can be improved. Of.

Further, after the fishing, the second adjusting body (33) is returned to the position where the position setting part (37) matches the reference part (17), so that the engaging member (35) is engaged with the engaging recessed part (16). It is possible to accurately position the second adjusting body (33) at the center position of the operation range by engaging with.

A position setting body (25) having (25a) is provided so that the position can be changed, and the position setting section (25a) is aligned with the reference section (18) to accurately adjust the adjusting body (23) to an optimum position. It is preferable to be able to be located at.

That is, the position setting body (25) is formed in a tubular shape, and is rotatably supported on the outer circumference of the front end portion of the adjusting body (23), and the position setting body (25) is positioned between the adjusting body (23) and the position setting body (25). In addition, a pressure spring (26) for urging the position setting body (25) in the direction of the reference portion (18) is interposed, and the adjusting body (2)
