Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of marine fishing technology, and more particularly to a structure and method for longline fishing. Background Technology

[0002] In current sea fishing, larger fish are often caught using longline fishing. The bait on the longline hook is usually cut to the appropriate size by hand before being threaded onto the hook. Traditional longline fishing operations usually rely on manual operation, manually casting and retrieving the fishing line, which is labor-intensive and inefficient, and cannot meet the higher actual needs of sea fishing. Therefore, it is necessary to improve it. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This invention provides a structure and method for longline fishing that is easy to operate, can effectively improve the catch efficiency of longline fishing, can effectively reduce manual operation, enhance the convenience of longline fishing, and can meet the higher requirements of sea fishing. It solves the technical problems of existing technologies where longline fishing usually relies on manual operation, resulting in low efficiency, high manual operation intensity, and inability to meet the higher requirements of sea fishing.

[0004] The above-mentioned technical problem of the present invention is solved by the following technical solution: a structure and method for longline fishing, including a hull, wherein a set of longline fishing devices is provided at both the bow and stern of the hull, the longline fishing device including rotating arm seats symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the hull, each rotating arm seat being provided with a square rod telescopic arm, the square rod telescopic arm extending obliquely upward, the ends of the square rod telescopic arms on the left and right sides being respectively provided with a feed reel and a take-up reel, a drive module for driving the take-up reel to move is provided on the square rod telescopic arm on one side of the feed reel, a longline main line is sleeved on the feed reel and the take-up reel, the longline main line passes through the feed reel, goes around the bottom of the hull, and then goes back through the take-up reel to form a loop. When longline fishing is needed, the telescopic arm of the square rod can be rotated to both sides by rotating the rotating arm seats on both sides. When not in use, it can be rotated and retracted without affecting normal navigation. When longline fishing, the drive module makes the main line of the longline move around the feed reel, take-up reel and the hull to form a cycle. As the main line of the longline moves, it brings the catch up, and the staff can collect the catch on the hull.

[0005] Preferably, the drive module includes rubber feed teeth that are formed or fitted on the feed reel and take-up reel, both of which are equipped with drive motors. The rubber feed teeth on the feed reel and take-up reel are spaced apart or continuously formed on their central surfaces, which can effectively increase the friction between them and the main line of the longline, thus powerfully conveying the catch.

[0006] Preferably, the drive module further includes a pressure roller mounted above the line feeder. The pressure roller presses against the surface of the line feeder, and the telescopic arm of the square rod is equipped with a mounting bracket for placing the pressure roller, with a U-shaped groove on the mounting bracket. The pressure roller presses against the surface of the line feeder using its own weight, and the pressure roller and the line feeder drive the main line of the longline to move. The pressure roller is naturally placed in the U-shaped groove on the mounting bracket, which can be freely removed and placed, ensuring that the main line of the longline can pass smoothly. If the bait on some hooks falls off and results in an empty hook, it will not affect the overall longline fishing. Bait can be continuously added to the hooks on the hull.

[0007] Preferably, the hull is equipped with a fish-catching structure, which includes a turntable frame mounted on the hull, a fishing rod mounted on the turntable frame, and a hook-shaped end to the fishing rod extending towards the reel. As the main line rotates, the catch can be found on the starboard side of the hull. The catch can be hooked by moving the fishing rod and pulled back to the side of the hull to retrieve the catch, or it can be retrieved from the control panel.

[0008] Preferably, the main line of the longline is provided with several fishing hooks at intervals. The number and spacing of the fishing hooks on the main line can be adjusted according to the actual situation. Since the pressure reel is pressed against the feed reel by its own weight, the fishing hooks can also pass through normally. Fish are caught underwater using the fishing hooks, and then retrieved on the hull.

[0009] Preferably, the hull is equipped with an operating platform at both the bow and stern. The operating platforms are located in the middle of both ends of the hull, allowing workers to collect fish or bait hooks.

[0010] Preferably, the extension length of the square telescopic arm is adjusted by bolts or pins. The square telescopic arm can extend and retract to adjust its extension length, and its position is fixed by bolts or pins, facilitating adjustment according to actual needs.

[0011] As a preferred method, when using the line, take out the main line from the bow or stern, put the main line on the feed reel and take-up reel, place the pressure reel on the mounting frame, and throw the remaining main line from the bow or stern. Under the action of gravity, the main line will hang down naturally.

[0012] As a preferred method, the drive motor is started and adjusted to the required speed. Under the action of the pressure roller and the line feeder, the main line of the longline moves around the line feeder, the line take-up roller and the hull. The operator puts bait on the fishing hook at the control panel.

[0013] As a preferred method, as the main line rotates, the catch can be found on the starboard side of the boat. The catch can be retrieved by moving the reeling rod and pulling the main line back to the side of the boat. Alternatively, the catch can be retrieved at the control panel. Bait can also be added to hooks that have lost their bait at the control panel.

[0014] Therefore, the structure and method of longline fishing of the present invention have the following advantages: it is easy to operate, can effectively improve the capture efficiency of longline fishing, can effectively reduce manual operation, improve the convenience of longline fishing, and can meet higher sea fishing requirements.

The longline fishing device includes rotating arm seats 2 symmetrically installed on the left and right sides of the hull 1. Each rotating arm seat 2 is equipped with a square rod telescopic arm 3, which extends obliquely upward.

[0024] The telescopic arm 3 is adjusted and fixed in length by means of bolts 4 or pins.

[0025] A wire feed wheel 5 is rotatably mounted on the left side of the telescopic arm 3, and a wire take-up wheel 6 is rotatably mounted on the right side of the telescopic arm 3. A drive motor 7 is connected and mounted on the wire feed wheel 5 and the wire take-up wheel 6.

[0026] A drive module for moving the take-up reel 6 is installed on the telescopic arm 3 of the square rod on one side of the feed reel 5; the drive module includes rubber feed teeth 8 that are opened or sleeved on the feed reel 5 and the take-up reel 6, and the rubber feed teeth 8 are opened continuously or at intervals.

[0027] The drive module also includes a pressure roller 9 mounted above the wire feeding roller 5. The pressure roller 9 presses against the surface of the wire feeding roller 5. A mounting bracket for placing the pressure roller 9 is mounted on the square rod telescopic arm 3. U-shaped grooves 11 are provided on the front and rear sides of the mounting bracket.

[0028] A main extension rope 12 is mounted on the feed reel 5 and the take-up reel 6. The main extension rope 12 passes through the feed reel 5, goes around the bottom of the hull 1, and then goes back through the take-up reel 6 to form a loop.

[0029] Several fishing hooks 13 are spaced apart on the main longline 12, and an operating platform 14 is installed at the bow and stern of the hull 1.

[0030] The hull 1 is equipped with a fish catching structure; the fish catching structure includes a turntable frame 15 installed on the hull 1, a fish catching rod 16 is slidably installed on the turntable frame 15, the end of the fish catching rod 16 is a hook structure, and the fish catching rod 16 extends toward the reel 6.

[0031] When longline fishing is required, first remove the pressure reel 9, take out the main longline 12 from the bow or stern of the boat, put the main longline 12 on the feed reel 5 and take-up reel 6, then place the pressure reel 9 on the mounting frame, and throw the remaining main longline 12 from the bow or stern of the boat. Under the action of gravity, the main longline 12 will hang down naturally.

[0032] Start the drive motor 7 and adjust it to the required speed. Ensure that the speed of the feed reel 5 and the take-up reel 6 is the same through the synchronous motor or speed control. Under the action of the pressure reel 9 and the feed reel 5, the main line 12 of the longline moves around the feed reel 5, the take-up reel 6 and the hull 1. The operator puts the bait on the hook 13 at the operating table 14.

[0033] As the main line 12 rotates, the catch can be found on the right side of the boat. The catch can be hooked by moving the reeling rod 16 and pulled back to the side of the boat to retrieve the catch. Alternatively, the catch can be retrieved at the control panel 14. At the control panel 14, bait can also be reattached to the hook 13 that has lost its bait.

[0034] When longline fishing is not needed, the telescopic arm 3 of the square rod can be rotated back into the hull 1 by rotating the rotating arm seat 2 and then retracted. When needed, it can be rotated to both sides.
