BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a fishing spinning reel having an improved fishing line guiding member in a fishing line guiding device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A spinning reel for fishing has a fishing line guide member, a so-called bail, which is turned over to guide a released fishing line to a winding state or a wound fishing line to a discharging state. It is attached to a rotor that rotates in conjunction with the rotation of the handle. As the material for the conventional bales, stainless steel, which has excellent corrosion resistance and high strength, is usually used in consideration of the fishing environment.

Although stainless steel has no problem in corrosion resistance and strength, it is inferior in appearance and is not luxurious because it is inferior in luster and decorativeness. Further, since stainless steel has a large weight, it is not possible to satisfy the demand for weight reduction of fishing spinning reels. In addition, since the bail is semi-annular and has an irregular shape, if the weight is large, the weight is biased to one side of the bale side of the rotor that rotates at high speed during winding rotation, which may adversely affect the balance of rotor rotation.

On the other hand, in order to improve the balance of rotor rotation and prevent malfunctions due to deformation of the bale, it is practically fair to mold the bale using synthetic resin.
Japanese Patent Publication No. However, since the veil formed of synthetic resin in this way has low strength,
By contacting rocks at fishing spots, for example between rocks,
There is a risk of scratches and breakage, which causes a problem of scratching the fishing line.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a fishing spinning reel provided with a fishing line guide member having high strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and excellent decorativeness. .

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is a spinning reel for fishing which is attached to a rotor which rotates in association with rotation of a handle and which has a fishing line guide member which can be reversed to a fishing line winding position and a fishing line discharging position. The fishing line guide member includes a fishing line guide member main body and an anodic oxide film formed on the fishing line guide member main body.

In the present invention, as the material of the fishing line guide member main body, a metal such as titanium, aluminum, stainless steel or magnesium can be used. Further, in the present invention, the anodized film may be formed by directly anodizing the fishing line guide member body, and after forming a metal layer by depositing titanium, aluminum or the like on the fishing line guide member body. Alternatively, this metal layer may be formed by anodizing treatment.

[0008]

The spinning reel for fishing according to the present invention is characterized by having a fishing line guide member composed of a fishing line guide member main body and an anodized film formed on the fishing line guide member main body.

The fishing line guide member main body can mainly have strength. Further, since light metal can be used as the material of the fishing line guide member main body, it is possible to reduce the weight of the reel as a whole and to improve the balance of rotor rotation by reducing the uneven weight of the bale.
Malfunction due to deformation of the bail can be prevented.

The anodic oxide film is a so-called passive film and exhibits corrosion resistance. Since the anodized film has excellent adhesion to the fishing line guide member body, it exhibits sufficient corrosion resistance for a long period of time. Further, the decorative property is exhibited by coloring the anodized film. For example, titanium anodic oxide coatings show various colors depending on the difference in their thickness. Also, since the polarization effect varies depending on the viewing angle, different color tones are exhibited depending on the viewing angle.

Embodiments of the present invention will be specifically described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing a fishing spinning reel of the present invention. In the figure, 1 indicates a reel body.
The reel body 1 has a rotor 2 on its rotation shaft (not shown).
Has been fixed. A spool 3 is attached to a rotor shaft of the rotor 2 so as to be able to move forward and backward with respect to the reel unit 1. A handle 4 for rotating the rotor 2 via a gear train train mechanism (not shown) in the reel body 1 is attached to a side portion of the reel body 1. Therefore, when the handle 4 is rotated, the rotor 2 is rotated in conjunction with each other, which causes the spool 3 to rotate.
Is configured to reciprocate with respect to the reel unit 1 and move back and forth.

The rotor 2 is provided with two projecting arms 2a, and a bail support plate 6 is rotatably attached to each tip of the projecting arms 2a. The bail 5, which is a fishing line guide member, is attached to the bail support plate 6. This bail 5 is for releasing the fishing line.
The fishing line is rotated in the direction of the arrow in the figure, and when the fishing line is wound, the handle 4 is rotated to automatically return to the position in the figure.

The veil 5 is composed of a raw material metal which is the main body of the veil, and an anodized film formed thereon. Hereinafter, a method for producing the veil 5 having such a configuration will be described. Here, the case where titanium is used as the material metal will be described.

First, titanium, which is a raw material metal, is formed into a veil shape to obtain a veil body. In this case, aluminum, stainless steel, magnesium or the like is formed into a veil shape without directly forming titanium, and physical vapor deposition (PVD method) such as metal vapor deposition method, sputtering method, ion plating method or the like is formed thereon. ), Chemical vapor deposition (CVD method)
The veil body may be obtained by depositing titanium with.

The bale body is degreased with a strong alkaline degreasing agent to clean the surface. Next, this bale body is washed with water and then subjected to a first acid treatment using a hydrofluoric acid aqueous solution or the like. The first acid treatment is for roughening the surface to Rmax of about 10 μm. By roughening the surface in this way, the anodic oxide film exhibits a characteristic decorative property. Also, by subjecting titanium to heat treatment to significantly coarsen the crystal grains, it is possible to exhibit the decorative properties characteristic of the anodized film.

After that, the bale body is washed with water and then subjected to a second acid treatment at least once using a mixed solution of hydrofluoric acid solution and hydrogen peroxide solution. This second acid treatment is intended to remove the smut generated by the first acid treatment. If necessary, the surface of the bale body may be mechanically polished to remove the oxide film.

Next, the bale body is subjected to anodizing treatment. As the anodizing treatment, a method using a direct current power source in a solution, a method using alternating current electrolysis, a molten salt electrolysis method, a thick film anodization method, or the like can be adopted.

In the method performed in a solution using a direct current power source, the solution is an aqueous solution of phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, boric acid, or a salt thereof, a mixed solution of these aqueous solutions, a non-aqueous solution of an organic acid, or the like. Can be used. The temperature of the solution is usually room temperature. In this method, when the electrolysis voltage is increased, the film thickness of the anodized film per unit time increases, and the color of the anodized film changes accordingly. For example, when the electrolysis voltage is increased, the film thickness of the anodized film that is formed increases, and gold → brown → blue → yellow (about 50V) → purple → green → yellow-green (about 100V) → pink and the anodized film. Color changes. By utilizing this phenomenon, the color of the anodized film can be adjusted in the anodizing treatment.

In the method using AC electrolysis, a mixed solution of phosphoric acid and hydrogen peroxide can be used as the electrolytic solution. In this case, since the electrolytic solution is subjected to the same treatment as the pretreatment, the acid treatment which is the pretreatment can be omitted.

Thereafter, if necessary, the bale body on which the anodized film has been formed as described above is subjected to a heat treatment and a natural cooling for hardening treatment. The conditions of the heat treatment are, for example, about 250 to 350 ° C. and 20 to 40 minutes. By performing the curing treatment in this way, the adhesion between the material forming the bale body and the anodized film is improved.

The veil 5 produced as described above is
Since the material metal is titanium, there is no problem in strength,
There is no problem in corrosion resistance. Regarding the corrosion resistance, the anodic oxide film, which is a passive film, also has good corrosion resistance, and therefore exhibits excellent corrosion resistance in combination with the material metal. Furthermore, since the anodic oxide film develops various colors, it is also excellent in decorativeness. For example, by adjusting the film thickness of the anodic oxide film, the color of the anodic oxide film can be adjusted to achieve color consistency with other members of the reel, and the appearance can be unified. Further, since the raw material metal is titanium, the weight of the veil itself can be reduced, and the balance of rotor rotation is improved.

The spinning reel for fishing provided with such a veil can exert good fishing line guiding property while sufficiently suppressing the corrosion of the fishing line guiding member even at a fishing spot, and is luxurious in appearance. It can also be differentiated from other reels.

In the present embodiment, the case where titanium is used as the material of the bale body has been described, but aluminum is used as the material of the bale body, and titanium is vapor-deposited thereon to form a titanium film. Even if the titanium film is subjected to anodizing treatment, the same effect as above can be obtained.

Further, aluminum is used as the material of the bale body, and this is anodized to form an anodized film, and the anodized film is sealed with a dye to color the anodized film. However, the same effect as above can be obtained. In this case, the strength is maintained by aluminum, which is the material metal, as in the case of titanium, but the anodized film, which is a passive film, exhibits the corrosion resistance. Further, the coloring of the anodized film of aluminum can be variously changed by changing the color of the dye used in the sealing treatment.

[0025]

As described above, the fishing reel of the present invention has the fishing line guide member including the fishing line guide member main body and the anodized film formed on the fishing line guide member main body. The fishing line guide member has high strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and excellent decorativeness.

Therefore, the spinning reel for fishing according to the present invention can be used even in a fishing place where seawater, water and the like are easily attached.
It is possible to exert good fishing line guiding properties while sufficiently suppressing corrosion of the fishing line guiding member. In addition, since it is possible to produce a color tone excellent in decorativeness, the appearance is also luxurious, and the user, that is, the angler, will also find it useful and attached. Furthermore, because it is so decorative,
Differentiating from other reels can be achieved.
