Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fishing gear technology, and in particular to a fishing reel braking mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] To prevent fish from pulling on the line after being hooked, existing fishing reels are usually equipped with a braking mechanism, mostly using a combination of brake pads. By applying force to the operating parts (such as the aforementioned adjustment knob or brake button, or even a wrench), the fishing reel is put into braking or non-braking mode as needed. Existing braking mechanisms generally rely on the friction between the brake pads and the washers for braking. Over time, the washers may become damaged due to friction, which is not easily noticed in time, resulting in poor braking effect and reduced service life. If a large fish is hooked and has excessive struggle, the worn washers cannot guarantee the normal use of the fishing reel, easily leading to the fish getting off the hook. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this application is to provide a fishing reel braking mechanism that aims to solve the problems in the prior art.

[0004] This application provides a fishing reel braking mechanism, including a rotating shaft, a transmission gear, and a braking assembly. The transmission gear is rotatably sleeved on the end of the rotating shaft. An annular groove is provided on the outer surface of the rotating gear, and the bottom surface of the groove is a toothed surface. The braking assembly includes a brake pad, a gasket, and a control plate. A positioning protrusion is provided on the side of the brake pad. The positioning protrusion is annular and cooperates with the groove. A serrated surface is provided on the surface of the positioning protrusion, and the serrated surface engages with the toothed surface. An elastic friction layer is provided on the surface of the brake pad that contacts the transmission gear. The brake pad is sleeved on the rotating shaft, with the side having the positioning protrusion close to the transmission gear. The brake pad, gasket, and control plate are sequentially sleeved on the rotating shaft. A control cylinder is sleeved on the other end of the rotating shaft, and the control cylinder abuts against the control plate.

[0005] Furthermore, the positioning protrusion extends from the bottom surface of the elastic friction layer and extends into the recessed groove.

[0006] Furthermore, the elastic friction layer includes a friction surface and a return spring, with both ends of the return spring fixed to the friction surface and the brake pad surface, respectively.

[0007] Furthermore, the elastic friction layer can also be a rubber friction layer, and the surface of the rubber friction layer is provided with friction bumps.

[0008] Furthermore, the end of the rotating shaft is provided with a rotating handle, which abuts against the control cylinder.

[0009] Furthermore, a mounting block is provided on one end of the rotating shaft near the transmission gear.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: it ensures that the entire brake assembly can still complete braking even after the friction surface is worn, increasing the service life, and the braking effect between the saw teeth and the grooves is more stable than friction braking, ensuring the normal use of the entire fishing reel and avoiding the phenomenon of fish pulling too hard and getting off the hook.

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0016] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 The fishing reel braking mechanism shown includes a rotating shaft 2, a transmission gear 1, and a braking assembly. The transmission gear 1 is rotatably sleeved on the end of the rotating shaft 2. The outer surface of the transmission gear 1 has an annular recessed groove 11, and the bottom surface of the recessed groove 11 is a toothed groove surface 12. The braking assembly includes a brake pad 3, a gasket 4, and a control plate 5. The side of the brake pad 3 has a positioning protrusion 33, which is annular and cooperates with the recessed groove 11. The surface of the positioning protrusion 33 has a serrated surface 331, which engages with the toothed groove surface 12. The surface of the brake pad 3 that contacts the transmission gear 1 has an elastic friction layer. The brake pad 3 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 2, with the side having the positioning protrusion 33 close to the transmission gear 1. The brake pad 3, gasket 4, and control plate 5 are sequentially sleeved on the rotating shaft 2. A control cylinder 23 is sleeved on the other end of the rotating shaft 2, and the control cylinder 23 abuts against the control plate 5.

[0017] When the transmission gear 1 is used on a fishing reel, it generally meshes with an external pinion, a standard fishing reel design. When reeling in the line, if a fish bites and the line needs to be tightened, the handle 22 can be rotated with a finger while reeling in the line, pressing the control cylinder 23 against the brake assembly. This causes the brake pad 3, the insulating pad 4, and the control plate 5 to press against the transmission gear 1. The elastic friction layer on the brake pad 3 first contacts the transmission gear 1, using surface friction to brake the gear 1. After a period of use, the elastic friction layer wears down. At this point, the handle 22 can be used to axially press the brake assembly, causing the positioning convex plate 33 to press against the bottom surface of the recessed groove 11. Braking is achieved using the teeth, grooves, and axial pressure. This ensures that the entire brake assembly can still brake even after the friction surface wears down. Furthermore, the braking effect between the teeth and grooves is more stable than friction braking, ensuring the normal use of the entire fishing reel and preventing fish from pulling off the hook due to excessive force.

[0018] The positioning protrusion 33 extends from the bottom surface of the elastic friction layer and into the recessed groove 11.

[0019] The elastic friction layer includes a friction surface 31 and a return spring 32, with both ends of the return spring 32 fixed to the friction surface 31 and the brake pad 3 surface, respectively.

[0020] When the elastic friction layer is not subjected to external extrusion, the positioning protrusion 33 does not contact the toothed surface of the bottom of the recessed groove 11, but the friction surface is always in contact with the surface of the transmission gear 1.

[0021] The elastic friction layer can also be a rubber friction layer with resilience, and the surface of the rubber friction layer is provided with friction bumps to increase friction.

[0022] The end of the rotating shaft 2 is provided with a rotating handle 22, which abuts against the control cylinder 23.

[0023] A mounting block 212 is provided on one end of the rotating shaft 2 near the transmission gear 1 to limit the position of the transmission gear 1.
