Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to an artificial bait. BACKGROUND

[0002] Conventionally, an artificial bait is used for artificial bait fishing (lure fishing) in place of fishing with a bait corresponding to a target fish. Various artificial baits are provided according to the target fish and the fishing method, and the like, and for example, a so-called rubber artificial bait for a rock fish (rock fish refers to a fish that inhabits a reef or seaweed) or a red sea bream, which is also called a sea bream artificial hook, or the like, is known as an artificial bait suitable for fishing for a rock fish such as a seven-banded rock fish or a sea bass.

[0003] The artificial bait generally mainly has a hook portion connected to a fishing line, a fish gathering member (a fish gathering streamer or the like) disposed around the hook portion, and a head portion (a weight portion) for sinking the hook portion and the fish gathering member into water.

[0004] In use of the artificial bait configured in this way, the fish gathering member is swung in water by an operation of a fisherman, or the like, to attract a target fish, and thus the target fish can be made to mistake the artificial bait for a live bait and bite the artificial bait.

[0005] For the artificial bait for which such a fishing method is performed, the mass of the head portion, or the like, is changed, or the artificial bait itself is replaced with another artificial bait, according to the conditions of a fishing site that change with time, such as the weather, the strength of the wind, the tidal current, the turbidity of the tide, and the like, and the artificial bait is used. However, in the case where these operations are performed, the fishing line needs to be temporarily cut, and time is likely to be taken.

[0006] Therefore, for example, in the following Patent Document 1, an artificial bait (a lure assembly) in which the mass of the head portion can be easily changed without cutting the fishing line is known.

[0007] The artificial bait mainly has a lure main body portion fixed to the lower portion of the fishing line, and a head portion (a weight) installed on the fishing line for sinking the lure main body portion. The head portion is configured by a plurality of weight pieces divided into three or more. A through-hole for the fishing line to pass through is formed in each of the plurality of weight pieces. Further, a slit for the fishing line to pass through is provided on a weight piece of the plurality of weight pieces that is sandwiched between the weight pieces at both ends. Further, the plurality of weight pieces are respectively fitted to the adjacent weight pieces in a manner that the plurality of weight pieces cannot rotate, and are combined together in a state of being locked by a magnet, or the like.

[0009] [Patent Document]

[0010] Patent Literature 1: Japanese Patent No. 6142445 SUMMARY

[0011] [PROBLEMS TO BE SOLVED BY THE INVENTION]

[0012] However, in the artificial bait described in Patent Literature 1, when a fish is hooked (the fish bites the hook), depending on the behavior of the fish in the water, the weight piece (the middle weight piece between the two end weight pieces) having the slit can possibly fall off and drop.

[0013] Also, since the weight pieces at both ends among the plurality of weight pieces constituting the head do not fall off from the fishing line, it is difficult to make a large change in the mass of the head. Also, since the weight pieces at both ends do not fall off from the fishing line, the shape of the head is limited, and the shape of the middle weight piece is also limited. As a result, the design and the decoration of the head are easily restricted, resulting in a low degree of freedom in design.

[0014] The present application has been made in view of the above circumstances, and has an object to provide an artificial bait which can be easily replaced without cutting the fishing line and can change the mass of the head, and which can achieve an improved design and decoration.

[0015] [MEANS FOR SOLVING THE PROBLEMS]

[0016] (1) The artificial bait according to the present application is characterized by having a guide pipe into which a fishing line is inserted, and a head having a first head and a second head which can be connected to each other, the first head and the second head sandwiching and fixing the guide pipe.

[0017] According to the artificial bait according to the present application, by connecting the first head and the second head to each other in a manner of sandwiching the guide pipe therebetween, the guide pipe can be sandwiched and fixed by the two heads. Thereby, the head and the guide pipe can be integrated in a state where the fishing line is inserted into the inside of the guide pipe. Therefore, the artificial bait can be sunk into the water together with the fishing line, and thus fishing can be performed using the artificial bait.

[0018] In particular, since the configuration is such that the first head and the second head sandwich the guide pipe into which the fishing line is inserted, by releasing the connection of the two heads, at least either one of the heads can be separated from the guide pipe. Thereby, at least either one of the heads can be easily replaced without cutting the fishing line. Therefore, the mass of the head can be changed according to the conditions of the fishing site or the like, and the design and the decoration of the head are less restricted and can be freely changed, and thus an artificial bait which is easy to use can be achieved.

[0019] (2) It can be that the first head and the second head can be separated from the guide pipe, respectively.

[0020] In this case, by releasing the connection of the first head and the second head, the first head and the second head can be separated from the pipe, respectively. Therefore, the first head and the second head can be replaced as needed without cutting the fishing line, and thus the combination of the two heads with respect to the pipe can be arbitrarily changed. Therefore, not only the mass of the head can be greatly changed, but also the shape, design, and the like are less restricted, and thus can be more freely changed, and thus a more easily usable artificial bait can be achieved.

[0021] (3) The head can be formed with a housing hole in which the pipe is housed inside, the housing hole being formed in a manner that the fishing line passes through the head.

[0022] In this case, when the pipe is clamped and fixed by the first head and the second head, the pipe can be housed in the housing hole, and thus the pipe and the head can be integrated in a state in which the pipe is stabilized. Therefore, the posture of the artificial bait in water can be easily stabilized, and the like.

[0023] (4) The pipe can be formed with an engaging portion that engages with an engaged portion formed in the housing hole, and the relative movement of the pipe with respect to the head is inhibited by the engagement.

[0024] In this case, since the pipe can be housed in the housing hole in a state in which the engaging portion and the engaged portion are engaged, the relative movement of the pipe with respect to the head can be inhibited and the pipe and the head can be integrated. Accordingly, the behavior of the pipe, such as unintentional sliding movement or unintentional rotational movement with respect to the head in the extension direction of the pipe, can be inhibited.

[0025] Therefore, the pipe can be in a more stable state without shaking, and the posture and the like of the pipe in water can be easily stabilized.

[0026] (5) The head can be provided with a connection member that is movable between a connection position and a release position, the connection position being a position in which the first head and the second head are maintained in a state in which they are integrated with each other, and the release position being a position in which the connection state is released.

[0027] In this case, by moving the connection member between the connection position and the release position, the maintenance of the connection state of the first head and the second head and the release of the connection state can be switched in, for example, one operation. Therefore, the replacement of the first head and the second head, and the like can be easily performed. In particular, since the connection state of the first head and the second head (the state in which the pipe is clamped and fixed by the two heads) can be reliably and stably maintained by the connection member, undesirable situations such as the falling of the head in water can be effectively inhibited.

[0028] (6) can be: the conduit is configured as a double-layer tube having a first conduit and a second conduit, wherein the second conduit is combined with the first conduit in a manner capable of moving relative to the first conduit in the extension direction of the conduit, and the conduit is configured such that the length in the extension direction can be adjusted according to the relative position of the second conduit relative to the first conduit.

[0029] In this case, since the conduit is configured as a double-layer tube having a first conduit and a second conduit combined in a manner capable of moving relative in the extension direction, the length (total length) of the entire conduit can be changed arbitrarily by changing the relative position of the second conduit relative to the first conduit. Accordingly, the total length of the conduit can be changed in correspondence with the size of the head, so that a head having a large size and a large mass, for example, can be replaced. Therefore, a variety of heads can be replaced, not only improving convenience, but also allowing a greater change in the mass of the head.

[0030] (7) can be: the conduit has a positioning member that positions the second conduit relative to the first conduit.

[0031] In this case, the relative position of the second conduit relative to the first conduit can be positioned and changed using the positioning member. Therefore, not only can the total length of the conduit be easily changed, but it can also be adjusted to the desired length with high precision.

[0032] (8) can be: the conduit has a protruding end portion protruding outward of the head, and a fixing member is provided on the protruding end portion to fix the fish collecting member in a detachable manner.

[0033] In this case, the fish collecting member can be fixed to the protruding end portion of the conduit by one operation, for example, using the fixing member, so that the fish collecting member can also be easily replaced in association with the replacement of the head, for example.

[0034] [Effects of the Invention]

[0035] According to the artificial bait according to the present application, not only can the replacement be easily performed without cutting the fishing line, but also the mass of the head can be changed, and the design and the decorative properties can be improved. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0051] Hereinafter, an embodiment of a lure according to the present application will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0052] In the present embodiment, as a lure, a lure having a fish gathering member, which is called a so-called rubber lure for sea bream (alternative name: artificial hook for sea bream), or the like, is described as an example.

[0053] As shown in Figures 1-4 , the lure 1 of the present embodiment has a guide tube 2 through which a fishing line (main line (a portion of the fishing line from the top end of a fishing rod to a sinker)) L, which is drawn from an unillustrated fishing rod, passes inside, a head 3 which is integrated with the guide tube 2, a hook assembly 4 which is connected to the fishing line L, and a fish gathering member 5 which is mounted on the guide tube 2.

[0054] In the present embodiment, a direction along a central axis F (refer to Figure 5 ) of the guide tube 2 is defined as a front-rear direction LI, and a direction orthogonal to the front-rear direction LI and an up-down direction is defined as a left-right direction L2. Also, a direction intersecting the central axis F when viewed from the central axis F direction is referred to as a radial direction, and a direction encircling the central axis F is referred to as a circumferential direction. Furthermore, in the front-rear direction LI, a direction along the fishing line L toward the side of the unillustrated fishing rod is referred to as the front direction, and the opposite direction thereof is defined as the rear direction.

[0055] As shown in Figures 1-3 , the head 3 is a split head having a first head 10 and a second head 20 which are connectable to each other, and functions as a sinker portion of the lure 1.

[0056] In the present embodiment, the first head 10 and the second head 20 are detachably connectable to each other in the left-right direction L2 with the guide tube 2 positioned therebetween. Also, by connecting the first head 10 and the second head 20, the guide tube 2 can be sandwiched and fixed between the two heads 10, 20. Thereby, the head 3 and the guide tube 2 can be integrated.

[0057] Further, the first head 10 and the second head 20 are each detachable from the guide tube 2. The head 3 will be described in detail later.

[0058] (Guide tube)

[0059] AsFigures 4-9 As shown, the conduit 2 is a double-layer tube having a first conduit 30 and a second conduit 50 combined with the first conduit 30 in a manner movable in a front-rear direction LI, which is a direction of extension of the conduit 2.

[0060] The first conduit 30 is made of synthetic resin or metal, and is formed in a cylindrical shape extending in the front-rear direction LI. The first conduit 30 functions as an outer tube of the double-layer tube, i.e., the conduit 2. The inner side of the first conduit 30 forms a first insertion hole 31 through which the fishing line L is capable of being inserted.

[0061] The rear end side of the first conduit 30 is configured as a protruding end portion 32 which protrudes toward the rear side (outer side) of the head 3 when the conduit 2 is clamped and fixed between the first head 10 and the second head 20. Therefore, the remaining portion of the first conduit 30 located at a position further forward than the rear end portion is configured as a portion accommodated inside the head 3.

[0062] Further, the fish collecting member 5 is detachably fixed to the protruding end portion 32 described above by the fixing member 40.

[0063] The fixing member 40 has a clasp member 44 capable of rotating (swinging) in the front-rear direction LI about a rotational axis M (refer to FIG. 2) extending in the left-right direction L2, and by displacing the clasp member 44 from an open position PI to a fixed position P2, the fish collecting member 5 can be fixed, for example, with one operation. Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown in FIG. 2, the fixing member 40 is formed in a substantially rectangular shape extending in the left-right direction L2, and is fixed to the protruding end portion 32 of the first conduit 30.

[0064] As shown in FIG. 2, the fixing member 40 is formed in a substantially rectangular shape extending in the left-right direction L2, and is fixed to the protruding end portion 32 of the first conduit 30. Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown in FIG. 2, the fixing member 40 is formed in a substantially rectangular shape extending in the left-right direction L2, and is fixed to the protruding end portion 32 of the first conduit 30.

[0065] In the illustrated example, the positioning holes 35 are formed in a plurality of numbers spaced apart in the front-rear direction LI in a manner aligned in the front-rear direction LI. Specifically, the positioning holes 35 are formed in five numbers spaced apart in the front-rear direction LI. However, the number and spacing of the positioning holes 35 are not limited to this case, and can be changed as appropriate.

[0066] Further, a plurality of positioning holes 35 are each formed with a pair in a manner facing each other in the left-right direction L2 across the center axis F. Further, a communication groove 36 is formed in the first conduit 30, which communicates the positioning holes 35 adjacent in the front-rear direction L1 with each other in the front-rear direction L1. The communication groove 36 penetrates the first conduit 30 in the left-right direction L2, and is formed in a linear shape in the front-rear direction L1. Accordingly, the five positioning holes 35 are communicated via the communication groove 36, respectively. Further, the groove width of the communication groove 36 is formed to be smaller than the diameter of the positioning hole 35.

[0067] However, the communication groove 36 is not necessarily required, and can not have the communication groove 36.

[0068] As shown in FIG. 1, the second conduit 50 is combined with the first conduit 30 in a manner movable with respect to the first conduit 30 in the front-rear direction L1. Accordingly, the conduit 2 is configured to be able to adjust the length (total length) in the front-rear direction L1 according to the relative position in the front-rear direction L1 of the second conduit 50 with respect to the first conduit 30. Figures 4-9

[0069] The second conduit 50 is made of synthetic resin or metal, has an outer diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the first conduit 30, and is formed in a cylindrical shape extending in the front-rear direction L1. Accordingly, the second conduit 50 is able to enter the inside of the first conduit 30 from the front side of the first conduit 30. Therefore, the second conduit 50 functions as an inner tube of the conduit 2 as a double-layer tube. The inside of the second conduit 50 is configured to be able to insert the fishing line L into the inside thereof as a second insertion hole 51.

[0070] A guide ring 52 is formed in the front end portion of the second conduit 50, which protrudes to the radially outer side over the entire circumference of the second conduit 50. The guide ring 52 is formed in a manner protruding to the radially outer side in a semispherical shape in a longitudinal sectional view, and is formed in a manner having a larger diameter than the first conduit 30.

[0071] Further, a fitting protrusion (fitting portion according to the present application) 53 protruding to the radially outer side is formed in a portion of the second conduit 50 located further to the rear than the guide ring 52. In the illustrated example, the fitting protrusion 53 is formed in a ring shape protruding to the radially outer side over the entire circumference of the second conduit 50.

[0072] However, the fitting protrusion 53 is not limited to the case of being formed in a ring shape, and for example, a plurality of fitting protrusions 53 can be formed at intervals in the circumferential direction.

[0073] ​The engaging protrusion 53 is formed to protrude radially outward from the first conduit 30. Accordingly, the second conduit 50 can enter the first conduit 30 from the front side until the engaging protrusion 53 contacts the leading edge of the first conduit 30. Therefore, the engaging protrusion 53 serves to limit the depth of insertion of the second conduit 50 into the first conduit 30.

[0074] Furthermore, with the second catheter 50 inserted into the first catheter 30 and the engaging protrusion 53 in contact with the leading edge of the first catheter 30, the catheter 2 is at its shortest length. Additionally, the engaging protrusion 53 in the second catheter 50 and the portion located anterior to the engaging protrusion 53, regardless of the insertion depth of the second catheter 50 into the first catheter 30, are both exposed to the outside of the first catheter 30. Furthermore, when the head 3 is assembled with the catheter 2, the guide ring 52 is positioned anteriorly (outerly) to the head 3.

[0075] like Figure 4 and Figure 9 As shown, a slot 54 is formed at the rear end of the second conduit 50. The slot 54 extends through the second conduit 50 in the vertical direction and opens to the rear. The slot 54 is formed in such a way that it extends in the front-rear direction L1, and a pair of slots are formed facing each other in the vertical direction.

[0076] Accordingly, the rear end of the second conduit 50 is formed as a two-pronged fork with a pair of opposing plates 55 facing each other in the left-right direction L2. Furthermore, the pair of opposing plates 55 can elastically deform toward the inside of the left-right direction L2 in a manner that brings them closer together.

[0077] Positioning protrusions 56 are formed on a pair of opposing plates 55, and these positioning protrusions 56 protrude outward in the left-right direction L2. The positioning protrusions 56 are formed, for example, in a hemispherical bulge. Figure 6 As shown, the positioning protrusion 56 can enter from the inside and lock into the positioning hole 35 formed in the first conduit 30.

[0078] Because the positioning protrusion 56 is engaged within the positioning hole 35, the second conduit 50 can be positioned relative to the first conduit 30. Accordingly, the length (total length) of the conduit 2 can be maintained at the desired length.

[0079] In this embodiment, such as Figure 6 As shown, when the positioning protrusion 56 is engaged in the rearmost positioning hole 35 among the multiple positioning holes 35, the total length of the catheter 2 can be minimized. In this state, the first catheter 30 and the second catheter 50 are moved relative to each other by moving the second catheter 50 forward relative to the first catheter 30, and the positioning protrusion 56 is engaged in the other positioning holes 35 in front in sequence, thereby enabling the total length of the catheter 2 to be gradually increased.

[0080] Furthermore, since positioning protrusions 56 are formed on a pair of opposing plates 55, the elastic deformation of the opposing plates 55 can be used to smoothly disengage the positioning protrusions 56 from the positioning holes 35 and to smoothly lock the positioning protrusions 56 into the positioning holes 35.

[0081] The aforementioned positioning hole 35 and positioning protrusion 56 constitute a positioning component 57, which positions the second conduit 50 relative to the first conduit 30.

[0082] (head)

[0083] like Figure 3 As shown, the head 3 has a first head 10 and a second head 20 that can be connected to each other, and the conduit 2 can be clamped and fixed between the two heads 10 and 20. The head 3 will be described in detail below.

[0084] The head 3 is made of metals such as lead, lead alloy, tungsten, stainless steel, tin, or iron. However, the type of metal material is not limited to this and can be appropriately changed, but it is preferable to use a low-cost and high-density metal material. In addition, various coatings or surface treatments can be applied to the outer surface of the head 3 as needed.

[0085] The head 3 is configured such that it passes through the central axis F of the conduit 2 and is parallel to the vertical direction. Figure 7 The imaginary plane (imaginary vertical plane) V shown is the boundary, which can be separated into two parts in the left-right direction L2. One of the separated heads 3 constitutes the first head 10, and the other head constitutes the second head 20.

[0086] In this embodiment, when left and right are defined by the viewpoint observed from the rear of the conduit 2, one head 3 located on the right side (RH) is designated as the first head 10, and the other head 3 located on the left side (LH) is designated as the second head 20.

[0087] like Figures 5-8 As shown, the head 3 is generally configured to include: a receiving cylinder 60, which houses the aforementioned conduit 2; and a main counterweight 61, which is disposed below the receiving cylinder 60. Furthermore, the receiving cylinder 60 and the main counterweight 61 can be formed of the same type of metal material or different types of metal materials. If the receiving cylinder 60 and the main counterweight 61 are formed of different types of metal materials, it is preferable that the main counterweight 61 is formed of a metal material with a higher specific gravity than the receiving cylinder 60.

[0088] The housing section 60 is as follows Figure 5 It is formed as shown, extending along the front-to-back direction L1, and in a manner as indicated. Figure 7 As shown, it is formed in a convex, upward-curving shape when viewed from the front in the front-rear direction L1. Furthermore, the receiving tube portion 60 is configured as follows...Figure 6 The central portion of the front-and-rear direction L1 bulges upward in a curved shape when viewed from the side in the left-and-right direction L2.

[0089] As shown in Figure 3 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 , a housing cylinder portion 60 is formed with a housing hole 62 that houses the guide tube 2 inside, the housing hole 62 penetrating the housing cylinder portion 60 in the front-and-rear direction L1. The front opening end of the housing cylinder portion 60 is formed with an annular recessed portion that is recessed toward the rear side and surrounds the guide ring 52 of the second guide tube 50 from the radially outer side.

[0090] The housing hole 62 is mainly formed to have a diameter slightly larger than the outer diameter of the first guide tube 30 and is configured to house the guide tube 2 in a state of being fitted inside. A fitting groove (a fitting portion according to the present application) 63 is formed on the inner circumferential surface of the housing hole 62, the fitting groove 63 being annularly recessed toward the radially outer side, and the fitting protrusion 53 of the second guide tube 50 is fitted and engaged in the inside of the fitting groove 63.

[0091] The housing hole 62 thus formed is composed of a first housing recessed portion 62a formed on the first head portion 10 side and a second housing recessed portion 62b formed on the second head portion 20 side. That is, the housing hole 62 is formed by the first housing recessed portion 62a and the second housing recessed portion 62b by connecting the first head portion 10 and the second head portion 20 to each other. Further, the first housing recessed portion 62a and the second housing recessed portion 62b will be described again later.

[0092] Accordingly, when the guide tube 2 is sandwiched and fixed by the first head portion 10 and the second head portion 20, it is possible to house the guide tube 2 inside the housing hole 62. At this time, it is possible to house the guide tube 2 inside the housing hole 62 in a state where the fitting protrusion 53 is engaged with the fitting groove 63. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the relative movement of the guide tube 2 and the head portion 3 by the engagement of the fitting protrusion 53 and the fitting groove 63. Specifically, it is possible to suppress the relative movement (sliding movement) of the head portion 3 and the guide tube 2 in the front-and-rear direction L1.

[0093] As shown in Figure 5 , the main weight portion 61 is connected and provided to the housing cylinder portion 60 from below, and as shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8 , in the front view when viewed from the front-and-rear direction L1, it is formed in a manner that the lateral width along the left-and-right direction L2 gradually widens from above toward below. Also, as shown in Figure 6 , in the side view when viewed from the left-and-right direction L2, it is formed in a manner that it bulges upward in a semispherical shape toward below. The head portion 3 is formed so that the center of gravity of the entire head portion 3 is located at a position lower than the guide tube 2 through which the fishing line L is inserted by the main weight portion 61.

[0094] Therefore, when the lure 1 is put into the water, it can float with the main counterweight 61 positioned below the guide tube 2 due to its own weight.

[0095] like Figures 5-8 As shown, a flat surface 65, which appears circular when viewed from the side, is formed on the side of the main counterweight 61 facing the left-right direction L2. However, the flat surface 65 is not necessary, and it is optional to form a flat surface 65.

[0096] The flat surface 65 can be used as a functional surface, for example, to stabilize the head 3 in the water by resisting resistance when the lure 1 is thrown into the water, or to change the movement of the head 3 when it falls into the water. Furthermore, the flat surface 65 can also be used as a decorative surface, for adding decorations such as those mimicking fish eyes or for attracting target fish, and for displaying a number indicating the mass of the head 3.

[0097] The head 3, constructed as described above, is formed by connecting the first head 10 and the second head 20, which are separable in the left-right direction L2 as described above. Therefore, the aforementioned receiving tube portion 60 and the main counterweight portion 61 are formed by the mutual connection of the first head 10 and the second head 20, and are separated in the left-right direction L2 when the first head 10 and the second head 20 are separated.

[0098] Furthermore, the shape of the head 3 is not limited to the shape described above, and can be appropriately changed.

[0099] The first head 10 and the second head 20 are described.

[0100] like Figure 3 As shown, the first head 10 and the second head 20 are formed in a manner that is symmetrical about each other in shape. Figure 7 The imaginary surface V shown is connected as a so-called mate surface.

[0101] like Figure 3 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the first head 10 has a flat first connecting surface 11, which is along the imaginary surface V and faces the left side (LH) that serves as the side of the second head 20. Figure 10 As shown, the second head 20 has a second connecting surface 21, which is along the imaginary surface V and faces the right side (RH) that is the side of the first head 10.

[0102] When the first head 10 and the second head 20 are combined together, the first connecting surfaces 11 and the second connecting surfaces 21 are in mutual contact.

[0103] likeFigure 3 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, a first receiving recess 62a constituting a receiving hole 62 is formed on the first connecting surface 11 of the first head 10. The first receiving recess 62a is formed in a semi-circular recess when viewed in longitudinal section, and extends in the front-rear direction L1 and opens in both the front and rear directions. Furthermore, a first engaging groove 63a constituting the aforementioned engaging groove 63 is formed in the first receiving recess 62a.

[0104] like Figure 10 As shown, a second receiving recess 62b constituting the receiving hole 62 is formed on the second connecting surface 21 of the second head 20, facing the first receiving recess 62a. Similar to the first receiving recess 62a, the second receiving recess 62b is formed in a semi-circular recess when viewed in longitudinal section, and extends along the front-rear direction L1, opening both forward and rearward. Furthermore, a second engaging groove (not shown) constituting the engaging groove 63 is formed in the second receiving recess 62b, facing the first engaging groove 63a.

[0105] A connecting protrusion and a connecting recess are formed on the first head 10 and the second head 20, respectively, which can connect the first head 10 and the second head 20 together while positioning them together.

[0106] Specifically, such as Figure 3 , Figures 9-11 As shown, a first connecting protrusion 12 is formed on the first head 10, which protrudes from the first connecting surface 11 toward the left side (LH) that serves as the second head 20 side. The portion of the first connecting protrusion 12 disposed in the first connecting surface 11 at a position lower than the first receiving recess 62a is formed into a cuboid shape in which the length in the front-back direction L1 is longer than the length in the vertical direction when viewed from the side in the left-right direction L2.

[0107] A first connecting recess 22 is formed on the second connecting surface 21 of the second head 20 to house the first connecting protrusion 12. The first connecting recess 22 is formed to be recessed from the second connecting surface 21 in a manner corresponding to the outer shape of the first connecting protrusion 12. Accordingly, when the first head 10 and the second head 20 are assembled together, the first connecting protrusion 12 can be housed, for example, in a fitted state inside the first connecting recess 22.

[0108] Moreover, a second connecting protrusion 23 is formed on the second head 20, which protrudes from the second connecting surface 21 toward the right side (RH) as the first head 10 side. The second connecting protrusion 23 is disposed in a portion of the second connecting surface 21 located lower than the second receiving recess 62b, and is formed in a cuboid shape in which the length in the up-down direction is slightly longer than the length in the front-rear direction L1 when viewed from the side in the left-right direction L2.

[0109] Furthermore, the second connecting protrusion 23 is disposed at a position on the front side relative to the first connecting recess 22, and is formed so as to be disposed adjacent to the front side of the first connecting protrusion 12 when the first head 10 and the second head 20 are combined together. Thus, the first connecting protrusion 12 and the second connecting protrusion 23 are disposed in a manner in which they are aligned in the front-rear direction L1 when the first head 10 and the second head 20 are combined together.

[0110] A second connecting recess 13 that receives the second connecting protrusion 23 inside is formed on the first connecting surface 11 of the first head 10. The second connecting recess 13 is formed in a manner in which it is recessed from the first connecting surface 11 in correspondence with the outer shape of the second connecting protrusion 23.

[0111] The second connecting recess 13 is disposed at a position on the front side relative to the first connecting protrusion 12. According to this, the second connecting protrusion 23 can be received inside the second connecting recess 13 in a fitted state, for example, when the first head 10 and the second head 20 are combined together.

[0112] As described above, the first connecting protrusion 12 and the second connecting recess 13 are formed on the first head 10, and the second connecting protrusion 23 and the first connecting recess 22 are formed on the second head 20, so that the first connecting protrusion 12 on the first head 10 side can be received inside the first connecting recess 22 on the second head 20 side, and the second connecting protrusion 23 on the second head 20 side can be received inside the second connecting recess 13 on the first head 10 side, while the first head 10 and the second head 20 are connected to each other.

[0113] According to this, the first head 10 and the second head 20 can be combined together while being positioned in the front-rear direction L1 and the up-down direction, so that the first head 10 and the second head 20 can be connected together stably and with high precision without positional deviation or the like.

[0114] (Locking pin)

[0115] The head 3 of the present embodiment also has a locking pin (connection member according to the present invention) 70 that is movable between a connection position P3 and a release position P4, where the connection position P3 refers to a position in which the locking pin 70 is engaged with the locking hole 71, and the release position P4 refers to a position in which the locking pin 70 is disengaged from the locking hole 71. Figure 5 and Figure 9The connection position P3 is a position at which the first head 10 and the second head 20 are maintained in the state of being integrally connected with each other as shown. The disconnection position P4 is a position at which the connection state is released as shown. Figure 12 and Figure 13 the connection state is released as shown.

[0116] As shown in Figure 9 The locking pin 70 is an elastic pin formed of a metal material such as stainless steel, and has a first locking pin portion 71 extending in the front-rear direction LI, an operation pin portion 72 bent downward from a front end portion of the first locking pin portion 71, and a second locking pin portion 73 bent rearward from a lower end portion of the operation pin portion 72 and disposed substantially in parallel with the first locking pin portion 71.

[0117] The locking pin 70 mainly uses the first connecting protrusion 12 and the second connecting protrusion 23 described above to maintain the connection state of the first head 10 and the second head 20 or release the connection state.

[0118] On the first connecting protrusion 12, a first locking hole 15 is formed in the front-rear direction LI so as to penetrate the first connecting protrusion 12 in parallel with the central axis F. Also, on the second connecting protrusion 23, a second locking hole 25 is formed in the front-rear direction LI so as to penetrate the second connecting protrusion 23 in parallel with the central axis F. In particular, when the first head 10 and the second head 20 are combined together, the first locking hole 15 and the second locking hole 25 are formed in a row in the front-rear direction LI and become in a state of being able to communicate with each other.

[0119] Also, on the first connecting surface 11 of the first head 10 and the second connecting surface 21 of the second head 20, a locking groove 26 is formed, which communicates with the first locking hole 15 and the second locking hole 25 and extends in the front-rear direction LI and opens toward the front and the rear.

[0120] Further, on the first connecting surface 11 of the first head 10 and the second connecting surface 21 of the second head 20, a pin recess 27 that opens toward the front is formed in a portion located below the first connecting protrusion 12 and the second connecting protrusion 23.

[0121] As described above, the pin recess 27 is formed on each of the first head 10 and the second head 20, and thus, by connecting the first head 10 and the second head 20 with each other as shown in Figure 10 a third locking hole 28 for penetrating the second locking pin portion 73 is formed by the pin recess 27 on the first head 10 side and the pin recess 27 on the second head 20 side.

[0122] As shown in Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, by inserting the first locking pin portion 71 into the second locking hole 25 from the front through the locking groove 26 and inserting the second locking pin portion 73 into the pin recess 27 (into the third locking hole 28) from the front, the locking pin 70 is always integrated with the second head portion 20.

[0123] At this time, the locking pin 70 has an elastic force (elasticity) that brings the first locking pin portion 71 and the second locking pin portion 73 closer to each other. Therefore, the second connecting protrusion 23 can be sandwiched between the first locking pin portion 71 and the second locking pin portion 73 in the up-and-down direction, and accordingly, the locking pin 70 is integrated with the second head portion 20 without falling off, regardless of which of the connecting position P3 and the releasing position P4 it is in.

[0124] Further, a locking piece 74 that is slightly folded back upward and contacts the second connecting protrusion 23 from the rear is formed at the rear end portion of the second locking pin portion 73. Accordingly, the locking pin 70 is integrated with the second head portion 20 in a state in which it is prevented from falling off to the front.

[0125] Further, as shown in Figure 12 and Figure 13 , the position of the locking pin 70 in which the first locking pin portion 71 is disposed in the second locking hole 25 and the locking piece 74 contacts the second connecting protrusion 23 from the rear is set as the releasing position P4.

[0126] In contrast, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 9 , the locking pin 70 is pushed in from the rear, the first locking pin portion 71 enters the first locking hole 15 beyond the second locking hole 25, and the position of the locking pin 70 in which the second locking pin portion 73 contacts the first connecting protrusion 12 from below is set as the connecting position P3.

[0127] In this way, by slidingly moving the locking pin 70 in the front-and-rear direction LI, the locking pin 70 can be switched to the releasing position P4 or the connecting position P3.

[0128] As shown in Figure 12 and Figure 13 , in the case where the locking pin 70 is in the releasing position P4, it becomes a state in which the locking pin 70 protrudes from the main weight portion 61 to the front so that the operation pin portion 72 is greatly distanced from the main weight portion 61 of the head portion 3 to the front. In contrast, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 9 , in the case where the locking pin 70 is in the connecting position P3, it becomes a state in which the locking pin 70 as a whole is hidden in the main weight portion 61 to the extent that the operation pin portion 72 is disposed along the main weight portion 61 of the head portion 3. Therefore, when the artificial bait 1 is used, it can be used in water without being affected by the locking pin 70.

[0129] Further, by locating the locking pin 70 at the connection position P3, the first locking pin portion 71 is disposed within the first locking hole 15 and within the second locking hole 25, and therefore the first head 10 and the second head 20 can be restricted from separating in the left-right direction L2 by the first locking pin portion 71. Accordingly, as long as the locking pin 70 is located at the connection position P3, the connected state of the first head 10 and the second head 20 can be maintained.

[0130] Further, a protrusion portion 12a protruding downward is formed on the first connection protrusion 12. The locking piece 74 of the second locking pin portion 73 passes over the protrusion portion 12a as the locking pin 70 moves rearward from the release position P4 toward the connection position P3, and is located rearward of the protrusion portion 12a when the locking pin 70 reaches the connection position P3.

[0131] Accordingly, even if the locking pin 70 located at the connection position P3 were to move unexpectedly in the forward direction, the locking pin 70 can be inhibited from moving in the forward direction by the locking piece 74 contacting the protrusion portion 12a from the rear. Therefore, the locking pin 70 can be positioned at the connection position P3.

[0132] Further, the operation pin portion 72 is located on the front side of the main weight portion 61 regardless of the position of the locking pin 70, and therefore the operation of the locking pin 70 can be performed while, for example, the operation pin portion 72 is held by a fingertip or the like.

[0133] Further, in the present embodiment, the locking pin 70 can be displaced from the release position P4 to the connection position P3 in a state in which the first head 10 and the second head 20 are inhibited from wobbling and the like between the first connection surface 11 and the second connection surface 21. That is, when connecting the first head 10 and the second head 20, it is possible that the first head 10 and the second head 20 will wobble and the like between the first connection surface 11 and the second connection surface 21, but this wobbling can be inhibited by the locking pin 70.

[0134] Specifically, the third locking hole 28, through which the second locking pin portion 73 is inserted, is formed in a state in which the pin recess 27 is slightly inclined so as to extend toward one side in the left-right direction L2 (in the present embodiment, the first head 10 side located on the right (RH)) as it approaches rearward from the front, rather than extending in the front-rear direction LI parallel to the central axis F of the guide pipe 2 as it approaches rearward from the front.

[0135] More specifically, the pin recess 27 is formed in such a way that, when the dummy bait 1 is viewed from the direction of a vertical axis extending in the up-down direction, the central axis of the third locking hole 28 is inclined at a prescribed angle in the left-right direction L2 with respect to the central axis F of the guide pipe 2. As the prescribed angle, it is within the range of 1 degree to 7 degrees, and preferably within the range of 2 degrees to 6 degrees.

[0136] In contrast, the first locking hole 15, the second locking hole 25, and the locking groove 26, through which the first locking pin 71 is inserted, extend in the front-rear direction L1 parallel to the central axis F of the conduit 2.

[0137] Therefore, when the locking pin 70 is pushed rearward from the released position P4 and moved towards the engaged position P3, the second locking pin portion 73 gradually flexes relative to the first locking pin portion 71 in a manner that twists to the right (RH). Thus, the second locking pin portion 73 slides into contact with the wall surface of the pin recess 27 of the first head 10 located on the right side (RH) (see reference). Figure 10 At the same time, insert it into the third locking hole 28.

[0138] Therefore, when the locking pin 70 is in the connection position P3, the first locking pin 71 and the second locking pin 73 can be slightly extended in the left and right direction L2, thereby pushing the first locking pin 71 and the second locking pin 73 against the first head 10 and the second head 20.

[0139] Accordingly, the locking pin 70 can be positioned at the connection position P3 while suppressing the shaking between the first connecting surface 11 of the first head 10 and the second connecting surface 21 of the second head 20.

[0140] Furthermore, as the locking pin 70 is pushed rearward from the released position P4, the second locking pin portion 73 can slide into contact with the wall surface of the pin recess 27 of the first head 10. Therefore, the locking pin 70 can be pushed in while feeling a certain amount of sliding resistance (frictional resistance). Accordingly, the pushing operation can be reliably performed while applying a certain load to the locking pin 70, and the locking pin 70 can be prevented from easily moving towards the released position P4.

[0141] (Fishing hook assembly)

[0142] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the hook assembly 4 is connected to the top of the fishing line L that is inserted inside the conduit 2.

[0143] The fishing hook assembly 4 includes: an assistant line 80, which is composed of a leader line (the line directly connected to the fishing hook in the fishing line) of a specified number; and a hook part (needle part) 81, which is connected to the assistant line 80. In the illustrated example, the fishing hook assembly 4 with two hook parts 81 of the same size is described, but the number of hook parts 81 can be appropriately varied, and multiple hook parts 81 of different sizes can also be used.

[0144] Furthermore, known methods can be used for connecting the fishing line L and the auxiliary line 80, and for connecting the auxiliary line 80 and the hook part 81.

[0145] The hook assembly 4 configured as described above is capable of being inserted into the inside of the guide pipe 2 because it is connected to the fishing line L.

[0146] Further, a bead 82 is attached to the auxiliary line 80 to prevent the auxiliary line 80 from being pulled into the guide pipe 2 by a certain amount or more. Further, the bead 82 is not limited, and other stopper members can be used.

[0147] (Fish collecting member)

[0148] As shown in Figures 1-4 , the fish collecting member 5 is detachably fixed to the protruding end portion 32 of the first guide pipe 30 by the previously described snap member 44. The fish collecting member 5 has a rubber or soft synthetic resin-made skirt 90 and a ribbon 91.

[0149] The skirt 90 is formed in a band shape extending in the left-right direction L2. In the example shown, slits are formed in the skirt 90 at portions other than the middle portion in the left-right direction L2. Thus, both sides of the skirt 90 are formed in a plurality of lines. The ribbon 91 is also formed in a band shape extending in the left-right direction L2 like the skirt 90.

[0150] Further, in the example shown, a case in which both the skirt 90 and the ribbon 91 are used is described, but either one of them alone can be used, or other fish collecting members 5 can be used in combination.

[0151] (Action of artificial bait)

[0152] Next, a case in which fishing is performed using the artificial bait 1 configured as described above is described.

[0153] First, a case in which the artificial bait 1 is set on the fishing line L is simply described.

[0154] In this case, as shown in Figure 4 , after the fishing line L is inserted into the inside of the guide pipe 2, the hook assembly 4 is connected to the top end of the fishing line L. Next, as shown in Figure 3 , the first head portion 10 and the second head portion 20 are combined from the left-right direction L2 with the guide pipe 2 interposed therebetween and connected to each other. At this time, the lock pin 70 is positioned at the release position P4.

[0155] By connecting the first head portion 10 and the second head portion 20, the guide pipe 2 can be integrated with the head 3 in a state in which the guide pipe 2 is housed inside the housing hole 62.

[0156] In particular, as shown in Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, the first head 10 and the second head 20 are connected to each other while the first connecting protrusion 12 on the first head 10 side is housed in the first connecting recess 22 on the second head 20 side and the second connecting protrusion 23 on the second head 20 side is housed in the second connecting recess 13 on the first head 10 side. Thus, the first head 10 and the second head 20 can be positioned in the front-rear direction LI and the up-down direction and combined together without positional deviation, etc., so that the first head 10 and the second head 20 can be connected together stably and with high precision.

[0157] After the first head 10 and the second head 20 are connected to each other, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 9 the push-in locking pin 70 is pushed in to be moved from the release position P4 to the connection position P3. Accordingly, the first locking pin portion 71 can be continuously inserted into the first locking hole 15 and the second locking hole 25, so that the connection state of the first head 10 and the second head 20 can be maintained.

[0158] Next, by setting the clamping portion 44 of the fixing member 40 from the open position PI to the fixing position P2, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 the elastic skirt 90 and the streamer 91 can be clamped and fixed between the protruding end portion 32 and the clamping portion 44.

[0159] By the above operation, the artificial bait 1 can be fixed to the fishing line L. Next, a case where fishing is performed using the artificial bait 1 will be described.

[0160] In this case, the artificial bait 1 is cast into water together with the fishing line L. Accordingly, the artificial bait 1 can be mainly caused to sink into water by the weight of the head 3, for example, while following a tidal current. Then, after the artificial bait 1 reaches, for example, the bottom of water (the bottom of sea) or a prescribed school of fish (water depth), the artificial bait 1 is caused to act by the fishing line L, so that the artificial bait 1 can be caused to swing in water, for example, thereby attracting a target fish.

[0161] Further, since the center of gravity of the head 3 is located at a position lower than the conduit 2 through which the fishing line L is inserted, even in a case where the artificial bait 1 touches the bottom, for example, the fishing line L is not easily entangled on a rock or a reef, etc., so that so-called entanglement on a reef, etc. is not easily caused.

[0162] In addition, since the water resistance can be applied to both end portions of the elastic skirt 90 and the streamer 91 substantially uniformly, the elastic skirt 90 and the streamer 91 can be effectively swung on both sides of the artificial bait 1, so that a target fish can be effectively attracted. Accordingly, the target fish can be caused to bite the artificial bait 1, so that the fish can be hooked on the hook portion 81.

[0163] Furthermore, even when changing the lure 1 according to the conditions of the fishing spot, such as tidal currents and tidal turbidity, the lure 1 according to this embodiment can be used without cutting the fishing line L.

[0164] That is, according to the lure 1 of this embodiment, since the structure in which the first head 10 and the second head 20 clamp the guide tube 2 through which the fishing line L is inserted is used, the locking pin 70 is positioned at the... Figure 12 and Figure 13 The release position P4 shown can disconnect the connection between the two heads 10 and 20. Therefore, by separating the first head 10 and the second head 20 in the left-right direction L2, the first head 10 and the second head 20 can be separated from the catheter 2 respectively.

[0165] Therefore, the first head 10 and the second head 20 can be easily replaced without cutting the fishing line L. This allows for significant changes not only to the quality of the head 3, but also to its shape, color, and decoration. Consequently, the design and decorative aspects of the head 3 are less constrained and can be freely modified, resulting in an easy-to-use lure 1.

[0166] Furthermore, by rotating the latching component 44 from the fixed position P2 to the open position P1, the pressure of the latching component 44 on the rubber skirt 90 and the ribbon 91 can be released, thus allowing for easy replacement of these items. Additionally, a single operation—rotating the latching component 44 to the fixed position P2—is sufficient to reliably secure the replaced ribbon 91 and rubber skirt 90. This also allows for easy replacement of the fish-gathering component 5 depending on the conditions of the fishing location.

[0167] In summary, the lure 1 according to this embodiment can not only be easily replaced without cutting the fishing line L, but also changes the quality of the head 3, and improves its design and decorative appeal.

[0168] In particular, since there is no need to cut the fishing line L, the head 3 can be quickly replaced, allowing for smooth adaptation to the conditions of the fishing spot. Therefore, it is possible to concentrate on fishing without wasting time.

[0169] Furthermore, according to the lure 1 of this embodiment, when the first head 10 and the second head 20 are used to clamp and fix the conduit 2, as... Figure 9 As shown, since the guide tube 2 can be stored inside the storage hole 62, the guide tube 2 and the head 3 can be combined into one unit while the guide tube 2 is in a stable state. Therefore, it is easy to keep the attitude of the lure 1 stable in the water, thereby facilitating the performance of, for example, the intended actions.

[0170] Moreover, since the conduit 2 can be housed in the housing hole 62 in a state where the engagement protrusion 53 is engaged with the engagement groove 63 formed in the housing hole 62, the conduit 2 and the head 3 can be combined while suppressing the relative movement of the conduit 2 and the head 3. Thereby, the unintended sliding movement or the like of the conduit 2 with respect to the head 3, for example, in the front-rear direction LI can be suppressed. Therefore, the conduit 2 can be in a more stable state without shaking, and thus it is easy to make the posture or the like in the water more stable.

[0171] Moreover, by moving the locking pin 70 in the front-rear direction LI between the connection position P3 and the release position P4, it is possible to switch between the maintenance of the connection state of the first head 10 and the second head 20 and the release of the connection state by, for example, one operation. Therefore, the replacement or the like of the first head 10 and the second head 20 can be easily performed.

[0172] Especially, since the connection state (the state where the two heads 10, 20 sandwich and fix the conduit 2) of the first head 10 and the second head 20 can be reliably and stably maintained by the locking pin 70, it is possible to effectively suppress the adverse situation such as the falling of the head 3 in the water.

[0173] Moreover, by changing the relative position of the second conduit 50 with respect to the first conduit 30 at the time of replacing the head 3, it is possible to arbitrarily change the length (the total length) of the entire conduit 2. Thereby, it is possible to change the total length of the conduit 2 in correspondence with the size of the head 3, and thus it is possible to replace the head 3 having, for example, a large size and a large mass. Therefore, it is possible to cope with a variety of heads 3, and thus it is possible to improve the convenience, and it is possible to make a larger change in the mass of the head 3.

[0174] Moreover, the relative position of the second conduit 50 with respect to the first conduit 30 can be positioned and changed by the positioning member 57 (the positioning protrusion 56 and the positioning hole 35). Therefore, it is not only possible to easily change the total length of the conduit 2, but also possible to adjust to a desired length with high precision.

[0175] The above describes the embodiments of the present application, but these embodiments are suggested as examples, and are not intended to limit the scope of the technical solution. The embodiments can be implemented in other various ways, and various omissions, substitutions, changes can be made within the scope of the gist of the application. In the embodiments or the modified examples thereof, for example, ways that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art, substantially the same ways, ways in the equivalent range, and the like are included.

[0176] For example, in the above embodiment, the first head 10 and the second head 20 are configured to be separated from the guide tube 2, but the present application is not limited to this case, and for example, the first head 10 (or the second head 20) can be configured to be combined with the guide tube 2 in a non-separable manner, and only the second head 20 (or the first head 10) can be separated from the guide tube 2.

[0177] Even in this case, by connecting the first head 10 and the second head 20, the guide tube 2 can be clamped and fixed between the two heads 10, 20. In addition, it is possible to replace at least one head that can be separated from the guide tube 2 without cutting the fishing line L.

[0178] However, it is preferable that the first head 10 and the second head 20 are configured to be separable from the guide tube 2 as in the above embodiment.

[0179] Also, in the above embodiment, the case where the guide tube 2 is a double-layer tube composed of the first guide tube 30 and the second guide tube 50 is described, but the guide tube 2 is not necessarily a double-layer tube. However, since it is possible to change the overall length of the guide tube 2, it is preferable that the guide tube 2 is a double-layer tube.

[0180] Furthermore, it can be configured to change the overall length of the guide tube 2 by the screw-in method of reversely rotating the first guide tube 30 and the second guide tube 50 around the center axis F.

[0181] Also, in the above embodiment, it is configured to suppress the relative movement of the guide tube 2 and the head 3 in the front-rear direction L1 by engaging the engagement protrusion 53 formed in the guide tube 2 with the engagement groove 63 formed in the accommodation hole 62, but for example, it is possible to make each engagement protrusion 53 engage with each engagement groove 63 in the circumferential direction by forming a plurality of engagement grooves 63 at intervals in the circumferential direction, and correspondingly forming a plurality of engagement protrusions 53 at intervals in the circumferential direction. In this case, since it is possible to suppress the relative movement of the guide tube 2 and the head 3 around the center axis F, it is possible to suppress, for example, the behavior of the guide tube 2 unintentionally rotating and moving relative to the head 3.
