Abstract:
A spinning reel includes a handle, a reel unit, a rotor, a spool, a rotor drive mechanism, and an anti-reverse mechanism. The reel unit has a fishing rod attachment portion and a mount portion. The rotor drive mechanism includes a drive gear and a pinion gear. The pinion gear is disposed in the through hole. The pinion gear is meshed with the drive gear. The anti-reverse mechanism is configured to prevent the rotor from rotating in a fishing-line releasing direction. The anti-reverse mechanism includes a one-way clutch assembly. The one-way clutch assembly is detachably attached to the mount portion of the reel unit. The rotor drive mechanism includes a seal member. The seal member is configured to seal a clearance between the pinion gear and the through hole while being disposed at a rear end of the one-way clutch assembly in the back-and forward direction.
Abstract:
A single-bearing reel includes a reel unit, a spool shaft, a support unit, a spool, a first restriction member, a second restriction member, a pair of first seal members, a second seal member, and a third seal member. The pair of first seal members is disposed on an outer peripheral surface of the support unit. One of the pair of first seal members seals between the support unit and the first restriction member. The other of the pair of first seal members seals between the support unit and the second restriction member. The second seal member seals an inner peripheral part of the support unit from an inner peripheral part of the first restriction member. A third seal member seals the inner peripheral part of the support unit from an inner peripheral part of the second restriction member.
Abstract:
A level winding mechanism for a dual-hearing reel is equipped with a worm shaft including intersecting spiral grooves and an engagement pin, and a torque limiting mechanism. The engagement pin engages the spiral grooves. The torque limiting mechanism limits the rotational drive force which rotates the worm shaft. At least a portion of the worm shaft is made of synthetic resin.
Abstract:
A spinning reel spool according to a first aspect of the present invention is a spinning reel spool that delivers fishing line forward. The spinning reel spool comprises a spool body and a ring member. This spool body has a body portion and a protruding portion. The protruding portion is integrally formed on a front side of the body portion. The protruding portion is annularly arranged and protrudes from the body portion in an axial direction of the spool body. The ring member is disposed on an outer circumferential portion of the protruding portion of the spool body. The ring member is held between the body portion and a plastically deformed part of the protruding portion.
Abstract:
A spool braking device includes a brake drum and a rotation structure. The brake drum is disposed in a reel body and positioned alongside a spool in an axial direction. The rotation structure is arranged between the spool and the brake drum in the axial direction. The rotation structure has a support, a brake shoe, and a biasing member. The support rotates in accordance with a spool shaft. The brake shoe has a center of gravity arranged outside of the brake drum in a radial direction. The brake shoe is configured to contact a tapered surface of the brake drum. The biasing member biases one of the support or the brake drum towards another one of the support or the brake drum. The one of the support or the brake drum is movable in the axial direction with respect to the another one of the support or the brake drum.
Abstract:
A spool for a fishing reel attached to a reel body of the fishing reel includes a spool body, a spool ring, a fixing ring and a first regulating part. The spool body has a bobbin trunk, an annular flange extending from the bobbin trunk in a radially outward direction that intersects the spool axis, and a tubular connecting portion extending from the flange. The spool ring surrounds an outer peripheral edge of the flange, and is attached to the flange so as to be separable. The fixing ring is attached to the spool body via the tubular connecting portion so as to be separable and is configured to fix the spool ring against the flange from the front direction. The first regulating part regulates relative movement of the fixing ring with respect to the spool body and is detachably attached to the tubular connecting portion.
Abstract:
A spinning reel includes a reel body, a handle, a spool shaft, a spool, a rotor, a rotor driving mechanism, and an oscillating mechanism configured to rotate in conjunction with the handle and cause the spool to reciprocate via the spool shaft. The oscillating mechanism includes a threaded shaft having a spiral groove and is configured to rotate in conjunction with the rotation of the handle. A slider is engaged with the spiral groove of the threaded shaft, and is configured to reciprocate in conjunction with rotation of the threaded shaft. A guide shaft has a rear end disposed in the through-hole arranged in the rear portion of the reel body, and is locked so as to prevent the shaft from disconnecting from by the reel body, and is configured to guide the reciprocation of the slider. An annular elastic member is disposed between the through-hole and the guide shaft.
Abstract:
A dual-bearing reel is disclosed. The dual-bearing reel includes a metal frame, a pinion gear, a bearing, a clutch member, and a clutch supporting member made of resin. The metal frame supports a handle shaft. The pinion gear is configured to transmit the rotation of the handle shaft to a spool shaft. The bearing rotatably supports the pinion gear. The clutch member is used for switching the spool shaft and the pinion gear between a coupled state and a decoupled state. The resin clutch supporting member is fixed to the frame. The clutch supporting member supports the clutch member. The clutch supporting member includes a bearing support part for supporting the bearing.
Abstract:
A spinning reel for forwardly unreeling a fishing line includes a reel main body having a through-hole extending through the peripheral wall in a longitudinal direction of the spinning reel, a handle configured to wind a fishing line, and being rotatably mounted to the reel main body. A screw member has a screw head disposed on a first end, a screw shaft section extending from the screw head toward a second end, and male threads disposed on the screw shaft section, the screw head contacting a peripheral wall at the front end side of the through-hole and the screw shaft section extending through the through-hole. A stopper member is mounted to the screw shaft section and contacts a periphery of the rear end side of the through-hole. A cover member has a fixed section fixed by the screw member, and covers a rear of the reel main body.
Abstract:
A braking operation lever includes a lever main body, an operating section, a brake shoe, and an elastic member. The lever main body has a first end part and a second end part, and is rotatably supported by the reel body. The operating section is configured to cause a braking operation, and is disposed on the first end part of the lever main body. The brake shoe is disposed on the second end part of the lever main body, and is configured to be pressed by the rotor while operating the operating section. The elastic member is disposed between the brake shoe and the lever main body.
