Description

  The present invention relates to a sound generation mechanism, and more particularly, to a spinning reel sound generation mechanism that generates sound by relative rotation between a spool that winds and feeds a fishing line and a spool shaft that cannot rotate with respect to a reel body.

  In general, a spinning reel includes a reel body that rotatably supports a handle, a rotor, and a spool that is rotatably mounted on a spool shaft. The spool of the spinning reel is movable back and forth with respect to the reel body, and includes a bobbin trunk around which fishing line is wound, and a large-diameter cylindrical skirt provided at the rear end of the bobbin trunk. Yes. At the rear end portion of the bobbin trunk, a spool receiving portion that is non-rotatably mounted on the spool shaft and restricts the rearward movement of the spool is disposed. In addition, the front drag type spinning reel has a drag mechanism composed of a plurality of drag plates, a sound generation mechanism that generates sound when the drag mechanism is operated, and the like inside the bobbin trunk.

As such a sound generation mechanism, for example, there is one in which a spool receiving portion arranged at the rear end portion of the bobbin trunk also serves as the sound generation mechanism (for example, see Patent Document 1). The conventional sound generation mechanism has a claw member that is swingably mounted on the rear end portion of the bobbin trunk, and a ratchet wheel that is mounted on the spool shaft in a state where rotation is restricted. The claw member is biased in a direction in contact with the ratchet wheel by a torsion coil spring wound around the swing shaft of the claw member. The ratchet wheel has a serrated uneven portion on its outer peripheral surface, and is rotatably mounted on an annular member that is also used as a spool receiving portion that is non-rotatably mounted on the spool shaft. The ratchet wheel is restricted from rotating relative to the annular member by the rotation restricting member. The torsion coil spring includes a coil portion wound around the swing shaft of the claw member, a first locking portion extending from one end of the coil portion and locked to the claw member, and a spool extending from the other end of the coil portion. And a second locking portion to be locked to the head. In the free state, the first and second locking portions are arranged, for example, in a phase separated by about 120 degrees. However, in a state of being locked to the claw member and the spool, the first locking portion and the second locking portion are arranged substantially side by side with an interval in the radial direction of the spool.
JP 2005-348637 A

In a conventional spinning reel sound generating mechanism, the first and second locking portions of the torsion coil spring are arranged in a locked state in the radial direction of the spool while being locked. When the two locking portions are arranged side by side in the radial direction of the spool as described above, the dimension of the sound generation mechanism in the spool radial direction is increased. If this is attempted to be reduced, the operation of locking the two locking portions to the spool or the claw member is deteriorated and the assemblability is deteriorated, so that it is difficult to reduce the radial dimension of the sound generation mechanism.

  An object of the present invention is to make it possible to reduce a radial dimension of a spool in a sounding mechanism of a spinning reel.

Sounding mechanism of a spinning reel according to the invention 1 is a only Could mechanism when rotating in the fishing line pay-out direction with respect to the non-spool shaft rotates relative to the spool gully Lumpur body for retracting and feeding of the fishing line The sound generating member, the striking member, and the urging member are provided. The sound generating member is non-rotatably attached to the spool shaft and has a plurality of concave and convex portions for sound generation on the outer peripheral surface. The striking member includes a claw portion provided at a distal end, and a mounting portion provided at a proximal end and swingably mounted on a spool around a swing shaft parallel to the spool shaft so that the claw portion can be brought into contact with and separated from the uneven portion. a hook-shaped pawl member which have a. When the spool rotates in the fishing line feed-out direction , the claw portion repeatedly comes into contact with the concavo-convex portion. The urging member has a first locking portion that is locked to the striking member, and a second locking portion that is provided on the opposite side across the first locking portion and the swing shaft and locked to the spool. And a member that urges the striking member in a direction in which the claw portion contacts the concavo-convex portion. The first locking portion and the second locking portion are provided on opposite sides across a line connecting the axis of the swing shaft and the axis of the spool shaft.

  In this sound generation mechanism, when the spool rotates with respect to the spool shaft, the claw portion repeatedly comes into contact with the uneven portion to generate sound. In the urging member for urging the striking member, the first locking portion and the second locking portion are arranged on the opposite side with the swing shaft interposed therebetween. Here, since the two locking portions are arranged across the swing shaft, the two locking portions are not arranged in the radial direction of the spool, and the radial dimension of the sound generation mechanism can be reduced.

  A spinning reel sound generating mechanism according to a second aspect of the present invention is the mechanism according to the first aspect, wherein the urging member is a torsion coil spring having a coil portion that can be wound on the outer peripheral side of the swing shaft. The stop portion extends from one end of the coil portion toward the claw portion and is locked by the striking member, and the second lock portion extends from the other end of the coil portion in the opposite direction to the first lock portion and is locked by the spool. The In this case, since the urging member is constituted by the torsion coil spring in which the coil portion is wound around the swing shaft, the arrangement of the urging member can be further reduced, and the plate spring or the like can be urged. As a result, the life can be increased.

  A spinning reel sound generating mechanism according to a third aspect of the present invention is the mechanism according to the first or second aspect, wherein the sound generating member is mounted on the spool shaft in a non-rotatable manner and on the outer peripheral side of the disk member. And an annular member in which the concave-convex portion formed in a sawtooth shape so as to allow only rotation of the spool in the fishing line feeding direction is disposed on the outer peripheral surface, and is disposed between the disc member and the annular member. And a regulating member that regulates the rotation of the annular member. In this case, the sound can be generated only when the spool rotates in one direction. For this reason, it can be configured so that sound is generated only at the time of drawing-out of the yarn that is dragged.

  A spinning reel sound generating mechanism according to a fourth aspect of the present invention is the mechanism according to any one of the first to third aspects, wherein the spool has a mounting member disposed concentrically with the spool shaft for mounting the striking member. The moving shaft is erected on the mounting member, and the second locking portion of the urging member is locked to the mounting member. In this case, the radial dimension of the mounting member can be reduced even if the mounting member is provided with a swing shaft or the second locking portion is locked.

  According to the present invention, since the two engaging portions of the urging member are disposed across the swing shaft, the two engaging portions are not arranged in the radial direction of the spool, and the radial dimension of the sound generation mechanism is reduced. can do.

  As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the drag adjustment knob 61 is relatively rotatable with respect to the circular knob member 63 screwed onto the spool shaft 15, the knob metal 65 fixed to the knob member 63, and the knob member 63. And a pressing member 64 pressed by the dovetail member 63.

  The knob member 63 includes a knob cover 66 having a knob operation portion 66b that has a slit 66a formed in the central portion along the radial direction and protrudes in the left direction in FIG. 6 crossing the slit 66a formation direction, and the knob cover 66. A knob body 67 that is fixed and screwed onto the spool shaft 15 is provided.

  The knob cover 66 is fixed to the knob body 67 with two fixing screws 68. The knob cover 66 is a member made of synthetic resin, for example, and is provided to cover the part of the front surface of the knob main body 67 to obtain a design change in the drag adjustment knob 61. The knob cover 66 has a substantially triangular opening so that the knob body 67 is exposed around the knob operation portion 66b. The knob cover 66 further includes a cover portion 66c that covers the outer peripheral surface of the knob main body 67 and the outer peripheral side of the front surface, and a pair of bosses 66d that have a round bar shape extending rearward from the knob operation portion 66b. A fixing screw 68 is screwed into the pair of bosses 66d, and the knob cover 66 is fixed to the knob body 67. The knob operation portion 66b of the knob cover 66 has a tip surface protruding in an arc shape, and a slit 66a for attaching the knob fitting 65 formed along the radial direction of the spool shaft 15 is formed at the center position. At the bottom of the slit 66a, a rectangular through hole 66e is formed through which a leg 65b described later of the knob metal 65 passes. In addition, a pair of locking projections 66f are provided in the thin portion due to the opening of the knob cover 66 in order to prevent the thin portion from being warped or lifted. The locking projection 66 f is locked to the back surface of the knob body 67.

  The knob body 67 is a member made of, for example, a synthetic resin that constitutes a main part of the drag adjustment knob 61. The knob main body 67 includes a disc part 67a covered by the knob cover 66, a cylindrical part 67b integrally formed at the rear part of the disc part 67a, a nut member 70 mounted inside the cylindrical part 67b, and have. The disc part 67a has a protrusion part 67c disposed behind the knob operation part 66b on the front surface and an exposed part 67d exposed from the opening of the cover part 66c of the knob cover 66. The protrusion 67c is formed with a through hole 67e through which the boss 66d passes. The through-hole 7e is formed in an oval shape, and is formed obliquely so that both ends of the long diameter expand toward the front. Thereby, in order to lock the locking protrusion 66f for preventing the knob cover 66 from being lifted, the boss portion 66d can be easily penetrated even if the knob cover 66 is inclined at an angle. For this reason, even if the knob cover 66 is provided with a locking protrusion for preventing lifting, the knob cover 66 can be easily attached and detached. In addition, the exposed portion 67d is recessed in a circular arc shape around the knob operation portion 66b from the peripheral portion of the exposed portion 67d. This makes it easier to operate the knob operation unit 66b.

  A circular storage space 67f for storing the pressing member 64 is formed in the cylindrical portion 67b. Between the knob member 63 and the pressing member 64, there is provided a knob sound generation mechanism (not shown) that generates a sound by rotating the drag adjustment knob 61. The nut member 70 is screwed into a male screw portion 15b formed at the tip of the spool shaft 15, and is mounted in the cylindrical portion 67b so as to be integrally rotatable and axially movable. A coil spring 71 for adjusting the drag force is disposed between the nut member 70 and the pressing member 64 so as to be compressible.

  The knob fitting 65 is provided to prevent the tip end portion of the drag adjustment knob 61 from being damaged and to reinforce the knob operation portion 66b. For example, a metal such as an aluminum alloy whose surface is anodized is used. It is a member made of plate material. The thickness of the knob fitting 65 is a uniform thickness of about 1.2 to 1.8 mm. The front surface (left side surface in FIG. 6) of the knob fitting 65 is curved in an arc shape along the knob operation portion 66 b of the knob cover 66. The knob fitting 65 includes a fitting main body 65a disposed in the slit 66a and a pair of leg portions 65b extending from the rear surface of the fitting main body 65a to the inside of the knob member 63. The front surface of the metal fitting main body 65 a slightly protrudes from the knob operation portion 66 b of the knob cover 66. However, the curvature of the front surface of the metal fitting main body 65a changes midway, and both end portions in the arrangement direction of the slits 66a on the front surface of the metal fitting main body 65a are slightly recessed from the knob operation portion 66b. As a result, the knob fitting 65 does not protrude at both ends of the slit 66a, and the fishing line is less likely to get entangled with the knob fitting 65. The knob fitting 65 is caulked and fixed to the knob cover 66 by penetrating the leg portion 65b through the through hole 66e and plastically deforming the penetrating tip.

  By disposing such a metal knob fitting 65 in the slit 66a, the strength of the knob operation portion 66b can be increased. For this reason, the operability can be improved by reducing the thickness of the knob operation portion 66b as much as possible. Further, since the knob fitting is protruded from the surface of the knob operation part 66b, the knob operation part 66b can be prevented from being damaged. For example, the thickness of the knob operation portion 66b that conventionally required about 7 mm to 9 mm is about 6 mm in the present embodiment.

  Further, by dividing the knob member 63 into the knob cover 66 and the knob body 67, the knob fitting 65 may be attached to the knob cover 66, so that the knob fitting 65 can be easily attached. Further, the characteristics can be made different even with synthetic resin by the two members 66 and 67. For example, by making the cover member that is easy to contact the ground etc. relatively resistant to impact such as ABS resin, and making the knob body constituting the function easy to maintain relatively high accuracy and strength such as polyamide resin, It is possible to provide the knob member 63 having sufficient accuracy and strength while preventing damage due to the above.

  The pressing member 64 is a cylindrical member with a flange having a flange portion 64a and a cylindrical portion 64b, for example, a synthetic resin member. The flange portion 64a of the pressing member 64 is disposed in the storage space 67f. The collar portion 64a is connected to the knob body 67 in a relatively rotatable and retaining state by a retaining spring 72 mounted in the annular groove 67g of the storage space 67f. The cylindrical portion 64b is formed with a circular spring accommodating portion 64c with which the coil spring 71 abuts. A seal member 73 that prevents liquid from entering the braking portion 62 is mounted on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion 64b. The seal member 73 is prevented from coming off by an E-type retaining ring 74, and the outer peripheral surface is in contact with the inner peripheral surface of the flange fixing member 9.

  The brake part 62 has a plurality of (for example, two) drag washers 62a and 62b housed inside the bobbin trunk 4a. The drag washer 62 a is pressed in contact with the pressing member 64. The drag washer 62 a is, for example, a metal disk-like member, and engages with parallel chamfered portions 15 c formed at the tip of the spool shaft 15 and cannot rotate via the spool shaft 15. The drag washer 62 b is a disk member made of graphite or felt, for example, and is rotatable with respect to the spool 4 and the spool shaft 15. These drag washers 62a and 62b are prevented from coming off by a removal determining spring 75 mounted inside the bobbin trunk 4a.

  6, 8, and 9, the sound generation mechanism 90 is rotatably mounted integrally with the spool 4 and the sound generation member 91 that is mounted on the spool shaft 15 in a non-rotatable manner and has an uneven surface portion 91 a for outputting sound. And a striking member 92 that repeats contact with the concavo-convex portion 91a when the spool 4 rotates in the fishing line feeding direction, and a biasing member 93 that biases the striking member 92 toward the sounding member 91. I have.

  The sound generating member 91 is mounted on the spool shaft 15 in a non-rotatable manner, a disk member 95, an annular member 96 that is rotatably mounted on the outer peripheral side of the disk member 95, and between the disk member 95 and the annular member 96. And a rotation restricting member (an example of a restricting member) 97 that restricts the rotation of the annular member 96.

  The disc member 95 is a metal ring member that is mounted on the spool shaft 15 in a state in which the disc member 95 cannot rotate and the rearward movement is restricted by the step between the chamfered portion 15 c and the circular portion. The disc member 95 has a cutout portion 95a in which a part of the outer periphery is cut out, and a noncircular hole 95b formed in a noncircular shape on the inner peripheral side. An engaging portion 97a of the rotation restricting member 97 is engaged with the notch 95a. The non-circular hole 95b is formed so as to be able to be inserted into the chamfered portion 15c of the spool shaft 15, and is in contact with the rear end portion of the chamfered portion 15c. Accordingly, the backward movement of the disk member 95 with respect to the spool shaft 15 is restricted. Further, an annular spacer member 94 (FIG. 6) is interposed between the disc member 95 and the rear end of the holding member 47, and the movement of the disc member 95 rearward in the spool axial direction is restricted. Therefore, even when the disc portion 17 is pressed backward by the drag mechanism 60, the entire spool 4 can be received by the disc member 95.

  The annular member 96 is a cylindrical ratchet wheel in which a disk member 95 is mounted on the inner peripheral portion from the rear. The annular member 96 is provided at intervals in the circumferential direction of the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion, and a plurality of sawtooth portions 96a as the uneven portions 91a formed in a sawtooth shape so as to allow only the rotation of the spool 4 in the fishing line feeding direction. And a groove portion 96b formed along the circumferential direction of the rear end portion of the inner peripheral surface and fitted with the rotation restricting member 97, and protrudes inwardly along the circumferential direction of the central portion of the inner peripheral surface on the front side of the groove portion 96b. And a projecting portion 96c that restricts the forward movement of the disc member 95. The annular member 96 is disposed on the inner peripheral side of the cylindrical portion with a gap from the second bearing 46, that is, the outer diameter of the annular member 96 is larger than the outer diameter of the second bearing 46.

  The striking member 92 is mounted on the mounting member 20 so as to be swingable about an axis parallel to the spool shaft 15 so that the claw portion 92a provided at the distal end and the claw portion 92a provided at the proximal end can be brought into contact with and separated from the uneven portion 91a. And a mounting portion 92b. The striking member 92 is swingably supported at the mounting portion 92b by a swing shaft 98 in the form of a bolt that is screwed into a female screw portion 20c formed on the rear end surface of the mounting member 20. A stopper 20d that contacts the striking member 92 and restricts excessive swinging of the striking member 92 radially inward and one end of the urging member 93 are latched on the rear end surface of the mounting member 20. A protrusion 20e is formed to protrude rearward with the female screw portion 20c interposed therebetween.

  The urging member 93 is a member that urges the striking member 92 in a direction in which the claw portion 92a comes into contact with the uneven portion 91a (sawtooth portion 96a). The urging member 93 includes a coil portion 93a that can be wound around the outer periphery of the swing shaft 98, a first locking portion 93b that extends in a tangential direction from one end of the coil portion 93a and is locked to the striking member 92, This is a torsion coil spring having a first locking portion 93b and a second locking portion 93c provided on the opposite side across the swing shaft 98 and extending tangentially from the other end of the coil portion 93a. The 1st latching | locking part 93b is latched by the striking member 92 in the radial direction outer side of the nail | claw part 92a. The second locking portion 93 c is locked to a locking protrusion 20 e provided on the attachment member 20.

  The rotation restricting member 97 is a metal spring member that is attached to the groove portion 96b of the annular member 96 and bent into a substantially hexagonal shape so as to prevent the disc member 95 from coming off from the rear while being urged toward the annular member 96. It is. The rotation restricting member 97 is arranged such that each vertex of the outer peripheral portion contacts the inner peripheral portion of the groove portion 96b with a biasing force. One end portion of the rotation restricting member 97 is further bent forward in the axial direction, and a locking portion 97 a that is locked to the notch portion 95 a of the disk member 95 is formed. Here, the rotation restricting member 97 is an annular member in a state where the engaging portion 97 a is engaged with a disk member 95 that is non-rotatably attached to the spool shaft 15 and the outer peripheral portion is biased toward the annular member 96. Since it is mounted in the groove portion 96b of 96, the rotation of the annular member 96 with respect to the spool shaft 15 is restricted and it is difficult to rotate.

  In the sound generation mechanism 90 having such a configuration, when the spool 4 rotates in the fishing line feeding direction, the claw portion 92a repeats contact with the surface where the angle of the sawtooth portion 96a is gentle so that the sound generation mechanism 90 generates sound. ing. Further, when the spool 4 rotates in the fishing line winding direction, the claw portion 92 a abuts on the surface with a tight angle and presses the annular member 96 against the urging force of the rotation restricting member 97 to press the disc member 95. Rotate relative to it. For this reason, no sound is produced when the spool 4 rotates in the fishing line winding direction.

  Further, since the two engaging portions 93b and 93c of the urging member 93 are disposed across the swing shaft 98, the two engaging portions 93b and 93c are not aligned in the radial direction of the spool, and the sound generating mechanism 90 The radial dimension can be reduced. For this reason, the sound generation mechanism 90 can be arranged in a compact manner even with a spool having a relatively small diameter.

  Next, the operation and operation of the reel will be described.

  At the time of casting, the bale arm 44 is reversed to the yarn releasing posture. As a result, the first bail support member 40 and the second bail support member 42 swing. In this state, the fishing rod is cast while hooking the fishing line with the index finger of the hand holding the fishing rod. The fishing line is then released vigorously due to the weight of the device. When the handle 1 is rotated in the fishing line winding direction after the device has landed, the rotor 3 is rotated in the fishing line winding direction by the rotor drive mechanism 5, and the bail arm 44 is returned to the line winding posture by the bail reversing mechanism 53. Since the reverse rotation of 3 is prohibited, the release of the fishing line stops.

  When winding the fishing line, the handle 1 is rotated in the fishing line winding direction. Then, the rotation is transmitted to the rotor 3 via the face gear 11 and the pinion gear 12, and the rotor 3 rotates. When the rotor 3 rotates, the fishing line guided by the line roller 41 is wound around the spool 4.

  When the drag is actuated and the spool rotates in the fishing line feeding direction, as described above, the claw portion 92a repeatedly makes contact with the surface where the angle of the sawtooth portion 96a is gentle, and the sound generation mechanism 90 generates a sound.

  Further, in the rotor 3, brackets 34 c and 34 d are provided on the pair of outer cover members 34 a and 34 b, and the brackets 34 c and 34 d are movable and protrude in the protruding direction on the boss portions 30 b and 30 c provided on the rear cover member 33. Since the rear cover member 33 or the rotor body 7 and the outer cover members 34a and 34b are displaced, the protruding directions of the outer cover members 34a and 34b are configured so as to be immovably locked in the direction crossing the direction. The position can be adjusted as small as possible by adjusting the position in the (first axis X direction). For this reason, the design of the cover members 33, 34a, and 34b can be improved without increasing the cost of the cover members 33, 34a, and 34b.
