Description

Egi with luminous function

[0001] The present invention relates to a squid, and more specifically, to a squid having a light-emitting function using a battery, but which can be used semi-permanently because the battery is easy to replace, and which has an improved fishing function.

[0002]

[0003] Typically, fishing involves combining various components, including a rod, line, hook, weight, bait, and lure. When a target fish bites, signaling the bite, the rod is instantly lifted, hooked, or jiggled to catch the target. Furthermore, various tackles are used to facilitate easier detection of the fish's bite and skillful jigging.

[0004] Fishing lures come in both natural and artificial varieties. Unlike natural baits, which are consumed after a single use, artificial lures have the advantage of being reusable and reusable. In particular, artificial lures can be tailored to the target or fishing conditions, ensuring optimal results.

[0005] Meanwhile, artificial bait commonly known as egi is mainly used for fishing cephalopods such as squid or cuttlefish, and these egis take the shape of shrimp or fish.

[0006] The fishing method using artificial bait for cephalopods, such as the above-mentioned squid jig, involves attaching the artificial bait, the squid jig, to a fishing line, casting it to an expected point, and then repeatedly winding the reel in or pulling the fishing rod strongly and briefly and stopping it, thereby creating a movement for the squid jig to resemble a live bait, causing cephalopod fish to mistake it for food and stick to the squid jig, which is then hooked on the hook formed on the squid jig, allowing the fish to be caught.

[0007] However, with the recent increase in the exposure of artificial lures like squid, cephalopods no longer recognize squid as food and become wary, reducing their attractiveness. Furthermore, cephalopods, especially squid, are highly sensitive to light, requiring separate onboard lighting (fishing lights) for fishing, adding to the inconvenience.

[0008] To solve these problems, a self-luminous means was installed inside the squid to catch cephalopods, allowing for better results. However, it is difficult to replace the power supply (battery) inside the squid, and when it runs out, it is no more than a conventional squid without a luminous function, making its use very inefficient.

[0009]

[0010] The present invention has been conceived in consideration of the above-mentioned problems, and the purpose of the present invention is to provide a lure that is easy to use and maintain and has improved light-emitting and fishing functions by improving the structure.

[0011]

[0012] The squid fishing lure according to the present invention comprises a cover part connected to a main line or leader for cephalopod fishing, a body part detachably connected to the cover part, the cover part and the body part are made of a material that transmits light, a light-emitting part that catches fish by emitting light from a PCB board provided inside the body part and the cover part and an LED mounted on the PCB board, a power supply part that supplies power to the light-emitting part using a battery, and a needle part provided at one end of the body part.

[0013] In addition, the body part and the cover part are detachably connected, and are characterized in that the user can easily replace the battery of the power supply part by using at least one of a screw-type connection, a magnetic connection, and a hook-type connection and a groove-type connection.

[0014] In addition, a sealing portion is further provided to securely seal the body portion and the cover portion when they are fastened, and the sealing portion is characterized by being provided as an elastic member surrounding the fastening portion of the body portion and the cover portion.

[0015] In addition, the invention further includes a communication unit, wherein the communication unit transmits information on the power status of the squid and hooking information of the target fish species to the user, and the user receives the information using a portable terminal.

[0016] In addition, the light emitting unit can change the color and number of flashes of the LED in various ways, and the user can select the color and number of flashes of the LED using the portable terminal and the communication unit, thereby improving the light emitting fishing function according to the target fish species.

[0017] In addition, the user can replace the LED or select the wavelength of light by using the preferred wavelength information of light for each target fish species.

[0018] In addition, the inside of the squid jig further includes a vibrating part for picking up fish, and the vibrating part is characterized by using a motor to generate vibrations in the water to pick up fish.

[0019] In addition, the present invention further includes a vocal member that generates an impact when the motor rotates, and is characterized in that it generates sounds with various amplitudes and frequencies by selecting the material of the vocal member or controlling the rotation speed of the motor.

[0020]

[0021] The squid according to the present invention has improved lighting and fishing functions by improving its structure, and is easy for the user to use and maintain.

[0022]

[0023] Figures 1 to 4 are drawings showing a squid according to the present invention.

[0024] Figure 5 is a drawing showing how a squid and a mobile phone terminal communicate with each other.

[0025]

[0026] Hereinafter, with reference to the attached drawings, a light-emitting device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail so that a person skilled in the art can easily implement the present invention. The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described herein and may be implemented in various different forms.

[0027] To clearly explain the present invention, irrelevant parts have been omitted, and the same reference numerals are used throughout the specification to refer to identical or similar components. The composition of the present invention is not intended to be limited in its meaning and includes various components, mechanisms, and functions capable of performing their original functions, and can be interpreted in accordance with the spirit of the invention.

[0028] In order to clearly explain the present invention, parts that are not related to the description have been omitted, and the same reference numerals are attached to identical or similar components throughout the specification. The composition of the present invention is not interpreted in a limited way and includes various components, devices, and functions that can perform the original function, and can be interpreted in accordance with the spirit of the invention.

[0029] A squid (1) having a light-emitting function according to the present invention includes, as shown in FIG. 1, a cover part (100) connected to a main line or a leader line for cephalopods, a wing part (200) attached to an outer surface of the cover part (100), a body part (300) detachably connected to the cover part, a PCB (410) provided inside the body part and the cover part, and a light-emitting part (400) that catches cephalopods by emitting light from an LED (30) mounted on the PCB, wherein the cover part and the body part are made of a material that transmits light.

[0030] As shown in Fig. 1, the squid according to the present invention can be detached to replace the internal power supply, and the power supply unit can be easily removed and firmly mounted, so that it can be used with a semi-permanent light-emitting function.

[0031] Most existing squid lures have a characteristic that, when introduced into the water, they emit light. However, this characteristic has limited them to single-use, necessitating the need for a replacement.

[0032] First, in the case of the wing part (200), a flow sensor may be included to determine the flow rate around the wing part.

[0033] In addition, most existing light-emitting units (400) have focused solely on lighting and turning off functions, but this limitation has made it difficult to differentiate squid products. Therefore, one embodiment of the present invention is configured to include multiple light-emitting units (400) to implement various functions.

[0034] Specifically, each light emitting unit (400) can be composed of an LED, and can be composed of three or more LEDs instead of just one LED, and various effects can be achieved compared to a light emitting unit (400) composed of one LED. For example, in the case of a light emitting unit composed of multiple LEDs, each LED can be sequentially turned on and off to create a configuration such as a wave display.

[0035] Additionally, it is possible to inform anglers of the situation surrounding them using lighting methods appropriate to the situation. Specifically, while the drawings of the present invention show three LEDs arranged in the drawing, more than three LEDs may be arranged if necessary. In such cases, an LED lighting method tailored to the user's situation can be implemented.

[0036] For example, in hazardous locations and locations where there is a risk of being lost, the LED lights can be turned on and off at faster time intervals, and in cases where a consistently bright field of vision must be secured, an embodiment of the present invention can be used to keep the LED lights on continuously.

[0037] One embodiment of the present invention includes a power supply unit (500) using a battery for supplying power to the light-emitting unit (400), and a needle unit (700) provided at one end of the body unit (300), and the body unit (300) and the cover unit are detachably coupled, and at least one of a screw thread connection, a magnetic connection, and a hook and groove connection is used so that a user can easily replace the battery of the power supply unit.

[0038] The above battery is mainly a CR 425 battery, but in some cases, one or more types of batteries can be combined and used, and a rechargeable power source can also be used.

[0039] When the body part (300) and the cover part (100) are fastened together, a sealing part (not shown) is further provided to ensure a firm seal. The sealing part may be provided as an elastic member surrounding the fastening portion of the body part and the cover part. That is, by using an elastic member such as rubber or silicone as the sealing part, moisture inside the squid can be prevented from penetrating, thereby ensuring excellent usability.

[0040] In addition, the squid according to the present invention further includes a communication unit (800), wherein the communication unit transmits information on the power status of the squid and hooking information on target fish species to the user, and the user can receive the information with a portable terminal (900). Accordingly, information obtained through the communication unit can be exchanged with the user, and various sensors can be provided on the squid to obtain information.

[0041] The above sensor can measure water temperature, depth, and illuminance, and can also detect the approach of target fish species, issue an alarm, or collect and provide information to the user. Accordingly, the sensor's sensed information is transmitted to the user's portable terminal via the communication unit.

[0042] The above light-emitting unit (400) can change the color and number of flashes of the LED in various ways, and the user can improve the light-emitting fishing function according to the target fish species by selecting the color and number of flashes of the LED using the portable terminal and the communication unit. That is, the user can replace the LED or select the wavelength of light using the preferred wavelength information of light for each target fish species.

[0043] To achieve this, data on the preferred lighting and color of target fish species can be obtained in advance, and the squid lure's light-emitting element can be controlled based on this information before fishing. Furthermore, various light-emitting devices other than LEDs can be used for the light-emitting element.

[0044] The above-mentioned jig further includes a vibrating section (600) for catching fish, and the vibrating section is characterized by using a motor to generate vibrations in the water to catch fish. In other words, it is intended to more actively move or move the jig, thereby increasing the attraction effect to target fish species in the vicinity. At this time, preference information for vibrations for each target fish species can also be stored or utilized.

[0045] Specifically, the vibrating part (600) can generate vibrations in the water using a motor, and if the movement of the squid is simply restricted, the possibility of catching can be reduced. Accordingly, the wing part (200) can be attached to the outside of the squid (1) to irregularly change the vibration radius of the squid (1).

[0046] In addition, the motor further includes a sound member (610) that generates an impact when it rotates, and by selecting the material of the sound member or controlling the rotation speed of the motor, it is possible to generate sounds with various amplitudes and frequencies to attract fish. In other words, by generating waves due to sound in addition to vibration, the attracting effect of target fish species is increased.

[0047]

[0048] Meanwhile, according to one embodiment of the present invention, the number of LEDs turned on in the light-emitting unit (400) can be changed depending on whether the location where the baby is currently located is suitable for fishing.

[0049] For example, one embodiment of the present invention can sense the current water temperature, current speed, etc., and receive from the terminal (S) whether the current condition is suitable for fishing. The fishing suitability can be transmitted from the terminal (S) to the baby through the communication unit (800). The fishing suitability can be determined based on the standard deviation.

[0050] To explain a little more specifically, the terminal (S) can determine the suitability for fishing based on water temperature and current speed, and the suitability for fishing can be determined based on the mathematical formula below.

[0051] <Mathematical Formula 1>

[0052]

[0053] t1 = fishing temperature for each fish species t2 = current water temperature, v1 = current speed for each fish species, v2 = current speed

[0054] In addition, the fishing suitability can be determined by calculating the standard deviation based on data acquired through an embodiment of the present invention, and when the fishing suitability exceeds a preset value, the number of LEDs that can be turned on can be determined using the standard deviation according to the formula below.

[0055] Specifically, the central terminal can store and retain the fishing suitability values ​​of previously fishing locations by the minute, calculate the standard deviation of the fishing suitability of the newly started fishing location compared to the previously stored fishing suitability values, and determine how many times the standard deviation the fishing suitability of the current fishing location is evaluated to be better than the average.

[0056]

[0057] <Mathematical Formula 2>

[0058]

[0059]

[0060]

[0061] Based on the above conditions, the user of the squid can determine that if the LED does not light up, the location is not a good place for fishing, and if the LED lights up a lot, the location is suitable for fishing.

[0062]

[0063] Based on the above, a total of 50, 100, 200, 300, and 500 fishing trips were conducted in different locations, and the differences in catch were judged only based on the cases judged by experts through their own experience. The experiment was conducted using rock bream in the winter sea off Pohang, and the results are as follows.

[0065] Through the above experiment, it was confirmed that the possibility of catching fish through fishing using the squid lure of the present invention is high. The reasons for this were judged to be the ability to immediately respond to continuously changing water temperature and current speed, and the actual situation being different from existing experience.

[0066]

[0067] As discussed above, the improved luminescence function of the present invention can be modified and replaced to meet various requirements, and is not limited to the aforementioned embodiments and attached drawings. Furthermore, simple substitutions, modifications, and variations within the technical scope of the present invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
