Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of yarn winding technology, and in particular to a yarn storage device and a yarn storage method. Background Technology
[0002] Line storage devices are commonly used auxiliary components in various scenarios requiring the use of thin, long lines. They are mainly used for storing and organizing lines after use, and can also be used for daily storage of idle lines. Their core function is to prevent lines from becoming messy, worn, or aged, ensuring convenient access to the lines later. They are suitable for the needs of various fields, such as fishing gear, kites, and small hoisting applications. In these fields, they are used in conjunction with a gripping part. The upper end of the line is connected to the gripping part, and the lower end of the line is often connected to a hook to achieve the corresponding function. In existing technologies, the storage of such fishing lines is often done manually. Taking practical applications as an example, in the fishing gear industry, the operator needs to first detach the upper end of the fishing line from the terminal of the grip; in the kite industry, the operator needs to separate the upper end of the fishing line from the terminal of the grip; in the small hoisting industry, the operator needs to detach one end of the fishing line from the terminal of the grip. Then, the operator needs to hold the fishing line storage device and manually wind the fishing line segment by segment onto the storage device, starting from the upper end of the fishing line. After winding, the other end of the fishing line, i.e. the hook connected to the fishing line, is fixed to the storage device, thus completing the storage of the fishing line. After detaching the upper end of the thread from the corresponding terminal of the grip, the thread is not effectively secured. If the operator does not hold it firmly, the upper end of the thread is very likely to fall off. This can not only cause the thread to get dirty, dusty, or scratched by sharp objects, but also easily cause the thread to become tangled and knotted during the fall, increasing the difficulty of subsequent thread handling. At the same time, manually winding the thread segment by segment is cumbersome and inefficient, causing many inconveniences for the operator's storage operations. This is especially true in complex scenarios such as small-scale hoisting operations and field use of the grip, where the drawbacks of manual storage are more prominent, seriously affecting the efficiency of thread storage and failing to meet the needs of efficient and convenient thread storage in various scenarios. Summary of the Invention
[0003] This invention aims to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes a thread storage device that can improve the convenience and efficiency of thread storage.
[0004] The present invention also proposes a method for storing threads having the above-mentioned thread storage device.
[0005] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a thread storage device is used to store thread, the upper end of which is connected to the terminal of a gripping part, and the lower end of which is connected to a hook. The thread storage device includes a rotary drive mechanism; a storage wheel connected to the output end of the rotary drive mechanism; and a flexible auxiliary belt, one end of which is connected to the outer wall of the storage wheel. The length of the flexible auxiliary belt is less than the circumference of the outer wall of the storage wheel. The side of the flexible auxiliary belt facing the outer wall of the storage wheel is a connecting surface, and the side of the flexible auxiliary belt away from the outer wall of the storage wheel is a winding surface. The connecting surface is used to connect with the hook, and the winding surface is used for winding the thread. The rotary drive mechanism is used to drive the storage wheel to rotate, causing the rotary drive mechanism and the storage wheel to move upward along the thread towards the terminal of the gripping part, and causing the flexible auxiliary belt to wind around the outer wall of the storage wheel, and causing the thread to wind around the winding surface. The hook is stored between the connecting surface and the outer wall of the storage wheel, and the hook and the thread wound on the winding surface are separated by the flexible auxiliary belt.
[0006] It has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0007] When it is necessary to collect the thread, the operator does not need to detach the upper end of the thread from the terminal of the grip. Instead, the hook connected to the lower end of the thread is first connected to the connecting surface of the flexible auxiliary belt (i.e., the side of the flexible auxiliary belt facing the outer wall of the collecting wheel). At this time, the thread is in a natural hanging state, and the upper end of the thread is still connected to the terminal of the grip. Then, the operator starts the rotary drive mechanism, which drives the collecting wheel to rotate. During the rotation of the collecting wheel, the flexible auxiliary belt will gradually wrap around the outer wall of the collecting wheel. Since the hook is connected to the lower end of the thread and the upper end of the thread is fixed to the terminal of the grip, the thread has a certain tension and cannot be stretched at will. Thus, the opposing pull of the flexible auxiliary belt and the thread drives the collecting wheel to move upward. Since the output end of the rotary drive mechanism is connected to the collecting wheel, the rotary drive mechanism will move upward along the thread towards the terminal of the grip along with the collecting wheel. As the collecting wheel and the rotary drive mechanism move upward, the rotating collecting wheel causes the thread to gradually wrap around the winding surface of the flexible auxiliary belt (i.e., the side of the flexible auxiliary belt away from the outer wall of the collecting wheel). As the collecting wheel continues to rotate and move upward, the thread will be wound around the winding surface segment by segment until the collecting wheel moves to a position close to the terminal of the grip part, and the thread is completely wrapped around the winding surface of the flexible auxiliary belt. Finally, the operator removes the upper end of the thread from the terminal of the grip part. At this time, the hook is collected between the connecting surface of the flexible auxiliary belt and the outer wall of the collecting wheel, and the hook and the thread wrapped around the winding surface are separated by the flexible auxiliary belt, thus completing the entire thread collecting operation. This thread storage device eliminates the need to detach the upper end of the thread from the holding end during use, preventing issues such as stains, tangling, and knots caused by the thread falling off. The rotary drive mechanism rotates the storage wheel and moves it upwards along the thread, achieving automatic winding and storage of the thread. This significantly simplifies the storage operation and improves the convenience and efficiency of thread storage. Furthermore, the flexible auxiliary belt provides a stable connection point for the hook, ensuring that the thread can be pulled upwards by the hook when the storage wheel rotates, thus providing a power transmission basis for automatic storage. The distinct connection and winding surfaces of the flexible auxiliary belt also allow the hook to be stored between the connection surface and the outer wall of the storage wheel, while the thread winds around the winding surface. This effectively separates the hook from the thread, preventing damage or knots caused by the hook catching on the thread during storage, ensuring the orderly and complete storage of the thread, and improving storage quality.
[0008] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a thread storage device is provided on the connecting surface, and the hook post is used for hooking the hook part.
[0009] According to a first aspect of the present invention, the thread storage device has a hook groove on the hook post, the opening of the hook groove facing the end of the flexible auxiliary belt connected to the storage wheel, and the hook groove is used for the hook to hook into.
[0010] According to a first aspect of the present invention, the thread storage device further includes a magnetic suction member disposed on the connecting surface, the magnetic suction member being used to attract and hook the hook portion that is hooked on the hook post.
[0011] According to a first aspect of the present invention, the outer wall of the storage wheel is provided with a clearance hole, and when the flexible auxiliary belt is wound around the outer wall of the storage wheel, the hook post on the connecting surface extends into the clearance hole.
[0012] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a plurality of support ribs are provided on the connecting surface. The plurality of support ribs are arranged along the length direction of the flexible auxiliary belt and extend along the width direction of the flexible auxiliary belt. The connecting surface abuts against the outer wall of the storage wheel through the plurality of support ribs. The support ribs are used to restrict the flexible auxiliary belt from twisting during the winding process.
[0013] According to a first aspect of the present invention, the thread storage device further includes a housing, the housing having an inlet / outlet hole, the storage wheel and the rotary drive mechanism both being disposed inside the housing, the rotary drive mechanism being connected to the housing, the inlet / outlet hole being for the flexible auxiliary belt, the hook and the thread to pass through, and the outer wall of the housing having a hook portion being for the upper end of the thread to be connected.
[0014] According to a first aspect of the present invention, the outer wall of the housing is provided with a first guide portion corresponding to the area of the inlet / outlet hole. The first guide portion is used to abut against a hanging member connected to the thread, so that the hanging member can pass through the inlet / outlet hole along the first guide portion and enter the housing. The inner wall of the housing is provided with a second guide portion corresponding to the area of the inlet / outlet hole. The second guide portion is used to abut against the hanging member, so that the hanging member can pass through the inlet / outlet hole along the second guide portion and detach from the housing.
[0015] According to a first aspect of the present invention, the thread storage device further includes a fastener, one end of the flexible auxiliary belt is provided with a mounting hole, the outer wall of the storage wheel is provided with a fastening hole, and the fastening end of the fastener can pass through the mounting hole and fasten into the fastening hole, so that the fastener presses one end of the flexible auxiliary belt against the outer wall of the storage wheel.

S3. After the outer shell abuts against the terminal of the gripping part, the rotary drive mechanism first stops driving the collecting wheel to rotate, and then the rotary drive mechanism drives the collecting wheel to rotate along the second direction, so that part of the thread wrapped on the winding surface is unwound. After the collecting wheel rotates a preset number of times along the second direction, the rotary drive mechanism stops driving the collecting wheel to rotate. S4. The upper end of the thread is removed from the terminal of the gripping part and the upper end of the thread is connected to the hook part on the outer wall of the outer shell.

[0039] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the orientation descriptions, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limiting this invention.
[0040] In the description of this invention, the use of "first" and "second" is for the purpose of distinguishing technical features only, and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated or the order of the technical features indicated.
[0041] In the description of this invention, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "set up," "install," and "connect" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.
[0042] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 This invention discloses a thread storage device for storing thread 11. The upper end of the thread 11 is connected to the terminal of the gripping part 10, and the lower end of the thread 11 is connected to the hook part 12. The thread storage device includes a rotary drive mechanism 300, a storage wheel 100, and a flexible auxiliary belt 200. The storage wheel 100 is connected to the output end of the rotary drive mechanism 300; one end of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is connected to the outer wall of the storage wheel 100, and the length of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is less than the circumference of the outer wall of the storage wheel 100. The side of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 facing the outer wall of the storage wheel 100 is a connecting surface 210, and the side of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 away from the outer wall of the storage wheel 100 is a winding surface 220. The connecting surface 210 is used to connect with the hook part 12, and the winding surface 220 is used for winding the thread 11. The rotary drive mechanism 300 is used to drive the storage wheel 100 to rotate, so that the rotary drive mechanism 300 and the storage wheel 100 move upward along the thread 11 toward the terminal of the gripping part 10, and the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is wound around the outer wall of the storage wheel 100, and the thread 11 is wound around the winding surface 220. The hook part 12 is stored between the connecting surface 210 and the outer wall of the storage wheel 100, and the hook part 12 and the thread 11 wound on the winding surface 220 are separated by the flexible auxiliary belt 200.
[0043] It should be explained that when storing thread 11, refer to... Figure 4 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 The solid arrow in the diagram indicates the rotation direction of the collecting wheel 100, which allows the connecting surface 210 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 to be wound around and adhered to the outer wall of the collecting wheel 100. This rotation refers to the gradual winding of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 from the connecting end (the end connected to the outer wall of the collecting wheel 100) towards the free end (the other end of the flexible auxiliary belt 200). In this embodiment of the invention, reference is made to... Figure 4The storage wheel 100 has common limiting plates 110 on both sides. The area between the two limiting plates 110 is used for winding the flexible auxiliary belt 200 and winding the thread 11. The two limiting plates 110 are used to limit the flexible auxiliary belt 200 during the winding process and the thread 11 during the winding process, so that the flexible auxiliary belt 200 can be smoothly wound on the outer wall of the storage wheel 100, and the thread 11 can be smoothly wound on the winding surface 220 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. The width of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is greater than the width of the hook 12 to ensure that when the hook 12 is connected to the flexible auxiliary belt 200, the hook 12 will not protrude from both sides of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 in the width direction.
[0044] Understandably, when it is necessary to collect the thread 11, the operator does not need to first disconnect the upper end of the thread 11 from the terminal of the grip 10. Instead, the operator first connects the hook 12 connected to the lower end of the thread 11 to the connecting surface 210 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 (i.e., the side of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 facing the outer wall of the collecting wheel 100). At this time, the thread 11 is in a natural hanging state, and the upper end of the thread 11 is still connected to the terminal of the grip 10. Then, the rotary drive mechanism 300 drives the collecting wheel 100 to rotate. During the rotation of the collecting wheel 100, the flexible auxiliary belt 200... The sex aid belt 200 will gradually wrap around the outer wall of the storage wheel 100. Since the hook 12 is connected to the lower end of the thread 11 and the upper end of the thread 11 is fixed to the terminal of the grip part 10, the thread 11 has a certain tension and cannot be stretched at will. Thus, the reverse tension of the flexible aid belt 200 and the thread 11 drives the storage wheel 100 to move upward. Since the output end of the rotary drive mechanism 300 is connected to the storage wheel 100, the rotary drive mechanism 300 will move upward along the thread 11 towards the terminal of the grip part 10 along with the storage wheel 100. As the collecting wheel 100 and the rotary drive mechanism 300 move upward, the rotating collecting wheel 100 will cause the thread 11 to gradually wrap around the winding surface 220 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 (i.e., the side of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 away from the outer wall of the collecting wheel 100). As the collecting wheel 100 continues to rotate and move upward, the thread 11 will be wound around the winding surface 220 segment by segment until the collecting wheel 100 moves to a position close to the terminal of the grip part 10, and the thread 11 is completely wrapped around the winding surface 220 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. Finally, the operator removes the upper end of the thread 11 from the terminal of the grip part 10. At this time, the hook part 12 is collected between the connecting surface 210 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 and the outer wall of the collecting wheel 100, and the hook part 12 and the thread 11 wrapped on the winding surface 220 are separated by the flexible auxiliary belt 200. This completes the entire thread 11 collecting operation.
[0045] This thread storage device eliminates the need to detach the upper end of the thread 11 from the terminal of the grip 10 during use, avoiding problems such as stains, tangling, and knots caused by the upper end of the thread 11 falling off. The rotary drive mechanism 300 drives the storage wheel 100 to rotate and move upward along the thread 11, achieving automatic winding and storage of the thread 11. This greatly simplifies the storage operation and improves the convenience and efficiency of thread storage. Furthermore, the flexible auxiliary belt 200 provides a stable connection point for the hook 12, ensuring that the thread can be pulled by the hook 12 when the storage wheel 100 rotates. 11, which in turn drives itself and the rotary drive mechanism 300 to move upward, providing a power transmission basis for automatic storage. Through the differentiated setting of the connecting surface 210 and the winding surface 220 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200, the hook 12 is stored between the connecting surface 210 and the outer wall of the storage wheel 100, while the thread 11 is wound on the winding surface 220, achieving effective separation between the hook 12 and the thread 11. This prevents the hook 12 from hooking the thread 11 during the storage process, causing damage or knots to the thread 11, ensuring the orderliness and integrity of the thread 11 storage, and improving the storage quality.
[0046] It is understood that the line storage device of the present invention can be applied to the field of fishing tackle, so that the line 11 in the present invention is specifically a fishing line, the gripping part 10 is specifically a fishing rod, and the hook part 12 is specifically a fish hook.
[0047] As one embodiment of the present invention, the rotary drive mechanism 300 can be a common hand-cranked rotary drive mechanism. It provides driving force by manually cranking the mechanism to rotate the storage wheel 100 to store the thread 11. The hand-cranked rotary drive mechanism 300 includes a handle assembly, a transmission assembly, and an output shaft. In use, after the operator connects the hook 12 to the connecting surface 210 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200, they operate the handle assembly. The transmission assembly transmits the hand-cranked power to the output shaft, which then drives the storage wheel 100 to rotate in a predetermined direction. During operation, the flexible auxiliary belt 200 gradually winds around its outer wall. With the help of the tension of the hook 12 and the thread 11, the storage wheel 100 and the entire rotary drive mechanism 300 move upward along the thread 11 toward the terminal of the grip 10. At the same time, the thread 11 gradually and orderly winds around the winding surface 220 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. Continue to operate the handle assembly until the storage wheel 100 is close to the terminal of the grip 10 and the thread 11 is completely stored. Stop operating the handle assembly and disconnect the upper end of the thread 11 from the grip 10 to complete the entire thread 11 storage operation.
[0048] refer to Figures 4 to 6The thread storage device also includes a fastener 280. One end of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is provided with a mounting hole 270, and the outer wall of the storage wheel 100 is provided with a fastening hole 130. The fastening end of the fastener 280 can pass through the mounting hole 270 and fasten in the fastening hole 130, so that the fastener 280 presses one end of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 against the outer wall of the storage wheel 100 and restricts the movement of one end of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 relative to the storage wheel 100. Understandably, the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is connected to the outer wall of the take-up wheel 100 via the fastener 280, enabling quick assembly and disassembly between the flexible auxiliary belt 200 and the take-up wheel 100 without the need for tools. Operators can quickly install and replace the flexible auxiliary belt 200 using the fastener 280. On the other hand, the fastener 280, which is fastened in the fastening hole 130, can tightly press one end of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 against the outer wall of the take-up wheel 100, and the fastener 280 can also restrict the movement of one end of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 relative to the take-up wheel 100, effectively preventing the flexible auxiliary belt 200 from loosening or falling off relative to the take-up wheel 100 during the winding or unwinding of the yarn 11, thus ensuring the stability of power transmission.
[0049] refer to Figure 8 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 The connecting surface 210 is provided with a hook post 230 for the hook part 12 to hook onto. The hook post 230 is provided with a hook groove 231, the opening of which faces the end of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 connected to the storage wheel 100. The hook groove 231 is used for the hook part 12 to be hooked into. The thread storage device also includes a magnetic suction component 240, which is provided on the connecting surface 210 and is used to attract the hook part 12 hooked onto the hook post 230. Understandably, before starting the rotary drive mechanism 300 to collect the thread 11, the operator holds the hook 12 connected to the lower end of the thread 11 and aligns the hook 12 with the hook groove 231 on the hook post 230. The operator hooks the hook 12 into the hook groove 231, completing the initial hooking of the hook 12 on the hook post 230. At this time, the magnetic suction element 240 provided on the connecting surface 210 will immediately attract the hook 12 hooked on the hook post 230, forming a secondary fixation for the hook 12, ensuring that the hook 12 is stably connected to the flexible auxiliary belt 200. Thus, the connection between the hook 12 and the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is completed, and then the rotary drive mechanism 300 can be started to carry out the subsequent winding and collection operation.
[0050] The hook post 230 provides a dedicated hook carrier for the hook part 12. The hook post 230 has a certain structural rigidity and can provide a stable support point for the hook part 12, so that the hook part 12 has a clear hook position and avoids the hook part 12 from shifting or falling off during the connection process. The hook groove 231 is used to limit the hook 12 to prevent it from sliding or detaching from the hook post 230 after hooking. The opening of the hook groove 231 faces the end of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 connected to the storage wheel 100, and is adapted to the winding direction of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 during subsequent storage. After the hook 12 is hooked into the hook groove 231, the groove wall of the hook groove 231 will limit the hook 12 to prevent it from sliding along the axial direction of the hook post 230 due to the traction force generated by the rotation of the storage wheel 100 and the tension of the thread 11 during subsequent winding. At the same time, it prevents the hook 12 from accidentally falling off the hook post 230, ensuring that the hook 12 is always in a fixed position. The magnetic attractor 240 is used to fix the hook 12 after it has been hooked. The hook 12 is usually made of metal and has the characteristic of being magnetic. The magnetic attractor 240 is located on the connecting surface 210 and can generate a stable magnetic force. When the hook 12 is hooked on the hook post 230, the magnetic attractor 240 will magnetically attract the hook 12, further offsetting the various tensions generated during the subsequent winding process, preventing the hook 12 from loosening or shifting due to force, and at the same time compensating for the instability of fixing by hook alone. Especially when it is windy outdoors or when there is slight shaking during operation, the magnetic attraction can effectively prevent the hook 12 from falling off. With the cooperation of the hook post 230, hook groove 231 and magnetic suction component 240, the connection operation of the hook 12 is simplified, allowing operators to quickly and conveniently connect the hook 12 to the flexible auxiliary belt 200 without complicated operations, thus improving the ease of operation. At the same time, through the limiting effect of the hook post 230 and hook groove 231 and the adsorption effect of the magnetic suction component 240, the hook 12 is doubly fixed, ensuring that the hook 12 remains stably connected throughout the entire process of storing the thread 11, without any loosening, displacement or detachment. This ensures that the thread 11 can be smoothly and orderly wound on the winding surface 220 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200, avoiding the thread 11 from becoming messy, knotted or damaged due to the hook 12 falling off. It also avoids the safety hazards caused by the hook 12 falling off, further improving the practicality, convenience and reliability of the thread storage device.
[0051] refer to Figure 6The outer wall of the storage wheel 100 is provided with a clearance hole 120. When the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is wound around the outer wall of the storage wheel 100, the hook post 230 on the connecting surface 210 extends into the clearance hole 120. Understandably, after the connection between the hook 12 and the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is completed, the rotary drive mechanism 300 is activated. The rotary drive mechanism 300 drives the collecting wheel 100 to rotate. The flexible auxiliary belt 200, which is connected to the outer wall of the collecting wheel 100, gradually adheres to the outer wall of the collecting wheel 100 as the collecting wheel 100 rotates. As the collecting wheel 100 continues to rotate, the flexible auxiliary belt 200 gradually winds from the connecting end to the free end. During the winding process, the hook post 230 simultaneously and gradually extends into the clearance hole 120 until the entire flexible auxiliary belt 200 is completely wound on the outer wall of the collecting wheel 100. At this time, the hook post 230 extends into the clearance hole 120 towards the collecting wheel 100, completing the entire winding process of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. The clearance hole 120 is used to avoid the hook post 230, ensuring that the flexible auxiliary tape 200 can be tightly and smoothly wound on the outer wall of the receiving wheel 100. In order for the hook post 230 to stably hook the hook part 12, the hook post 230 has a certain height and volume. If the clearance hole 120 is not provided on the outer wall of the receiving wheel 100, when the flexible auxiliary tape 200 is wound on the outer wall of the receiving wheel 100, the hook post 230 will protrude from the connecting surface 210 of the flexible auxiliary tape 200 and abut against the outer wall of the receiving wheel 100. This will cause the flexible auxiliary tape 200 to be unable to fit tightly against the outer wall of the receiving wheel 100 and will form a protrusion at the corresponding position of the hook post 230. This will not only affect the neatness of the winding of the flexible auxiliary tape 200, but also cause the wound flexible auxiliary tape 200 to become loose and wrinkled, thereby affecting the winding effect of the subsequent thread 11. The clearance hole 120 provides clearance space for the hook post 230. When the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is wound, the hook post 230 can directly extend into the clearance hole 120, avoiding contact between the hook post 230 and the outer wall of the receiving wheel 100, thus eliminating the obstruction of the hook post 230 to the winding of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. On the other hand, the size of the clearance hole 120 is adapted to the hook post 230, and the hole wall of the clearance hole 120 can limit the hook post 230, preventing the hook post 230 from shifting during the winding process, thereby ensuring the stability of the position of the hook part 12. The clearance hole 120 eliminates the obstruction of the hook post 230 to the winding of the flexible auxiliary belt 200, ensuring that the flexible auxiliary belt 200 can be tightly, flatly and orderly wound on the outer wall of the storage wheel 100, avoiding protrusions, looseness, wrinkles and other situations. This ensures that the thread 11 can be smoothly and evenly wound on the winding surface 220 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200, avoiding the thread 11 from being messy, knotted or damaged due to uneven winding of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. It can also further ensure that the hook 12 remains stable during the storage process by limiting the hook post 230, thus improving the reliability of the thread storage device.
[0052] refer to Figure 6In this embodiment of the invention, a guide slope 121 is provided on the inner side wall of the clearance hole 120 near the outer wall of the storage wheel 100. The guide slope 121 is used to abut against the hook post 230 so that the hook post 230 can be smoothly inserted into the clearance hole 120.
[0053] refer to Figures 8 to 11The connecting surface 210 is provided with multiple support ribs 250, which are arranged along the length of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 and extend along the width of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. The connecting surface 210 abuts against the outer wall of the receiving wheel 100 through the multiple support ribs 250. The support ribs 250 are used to limit the twisting of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 during the winding process. It can be understood that when the rotary drive mechanism 300 starts and drives the receiving wheel 100 to rotate, the flexible auxiliary belt 200 connected to the outer wall of the receiving wheel 100 will gradually come into contact with the outer wall of the receiving wheel 100 as the receiving wheel 100 rotates. Since the length of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is less than the circumference of the outer wall of the receiving wheel 100, and the connecting surface 210 is provided with multiple support ribs 250 arranged along its length and extending along its width, in the initial stage of winding, the part of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 near the connecting end of the receiving wheel 100 first abuts against the outer wall of the receiving wheel 100. The outer wall of the storage wheel 100 contacts the outer wall of the storage wheel 100, and the supporting ribs 250 first abut against the outer wall of the storage wheel 100. As the storage wheel 100 continues to rotate, the flexible auxiliary belt 200 gradually winds from the connecting end to the free end. During the winding process, multiple supporting ribs 250 abut against the outer wall of the storage wheel 100 in sequence until the entire flexible auxiliary belt 200 is completely wound on the outer wall of the storage wheel 100. At this time, the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is stably attached to the outer wall of the storage wheel 100 through multiple supporting ribs 250, thus completing the winding process of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. During the winding process, due to the centripetal force generated by the rotation of the take-up wheel 100, the tension generated by the traction of the thread 11, and the flexibility of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 itself, the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is prone to twisting along its length or width. This results in the flexible auxiliary belt 200 being wound haphazardly and unable to fit tightly against the outer wall of the take-up wheel 100. However, multiple support ribs 250 are arranged along the length of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 and extend along its width, which can enhance the structural rigidity of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. When the support ribs 250 abut against the outer wall of the take-up wheel 100, the support ribs 250 can provide support and positioning for the flexible auxiliary belt 200 in the width direction, preventing the flexible auxiliary belt 200 from twisting left and right due to uneven force during winding. At the same time, the even arrangement of multiple support ribs 250 can ensure that the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is subjected to uniform force in all parts during winding, preventing twisting and wrinkling caused by excessive local force, and ensuring that the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is always wound smoothly along the circumference of the take-up wheel 100. The support rib 250 effectively prevents the flexible auxiliary belt 200 from twisting during winding, ensuring that the flexible auxiliary belt 200 can be neatly and tightly wound on the outer wall of the storage wheel 100. This, in turn, ensures that the thread 11 can be smoothly and orderly wound on the winding surface 220 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200, avoiding the thread 11 from becoming messy due to the twisting of the flexible auxiliary belt 200, and improving the stability and reliability of the thread 11 storage.
[0054] refer to Figures 8 to 11In this embodiment of the invention, the connecting surface 210 is provided with a plurality of hook posts 230, which are evenly arranged along the length direction of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. Each hook post 230 is provided with a hook groove 231 with its opening facing one end of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. The thread storage device includes a plurality of magnetic components 240, which are all connected to the connecting surface 210 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. The magnetic components 240 are evenly arranged along the length direction of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. Each magnetic component 240 is provided with an insertion hole. The plurality of hook posts 230 are respectively inserted into the insertion holes on the plurality of magnetic components 240, with the hook groove 231 protruding. The adsorption surface of the magnetic component 240 is flush with the inner wall of the hook groove 231 on the side near the connecting surface 210. The outer wall of the storage wheel 100 is provided with multiple clearance holes 120. When the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is wound around the outer wall of the storage wheel 100, multiple hook posts 230 on the connecting surface 210 extend into the multiple clearance holes 120 respectively. The support rib 250 protrudes from the adsorption surface of the magnetic attractant 240, and the hook posts 230 protrude from the support rib 250. The multiple support ribs 250 and the multiple magnetic attractants 240 are arranged alternately, that is, the multiple support ribs 250 and the multiple hook posts 230 are arranged alternately. The length between any two adjacent support ribs 250 is greater than the length of the hook 12, and the area between any two adjacent support ribs 250 is used to accommodate the hook 12.
[0055] By setting multiple hook posts 230, each with a hook groove 231, multiple selectable hook positions can be provided for the hook 12, allowing the multiple hook posts 230 to accommodate storage needs of different lengths of thread 11 and different sizes of hook 12. Multiple magnetic components 240 are evenly arranged along the length of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 and are inserted into the multiple hook posts 230 one-to-one, enabling the magnetic components 240 to attract and fix the hook 12 on each hook post 230, achieving synchronous and stable connection of multiple sets of hooks 12. Simultaneously, the hook posts 230 are inserted into the insertion holes of the magnetic components 240 with the hook groove 231 exposed, ensuring normal hooking of the hook 12 and achieving positioning between the hook posts 230 and the magnetic components 240, preventing relative movement between the magnetic components 240 and the hook posts 230. The magnetic suction surface of the magnetic suction component 240 is flush with the inner wall of the hook groove 231 near the connecting surface 210, which allows the magnetic suction force of the magnetic suction component 240 on the hook 12 to be evenly applied to the part where the hook 12 hooks into the hook groove 231. This prevents the hook 12 from being loose due to the concave suction surface, and also prevents the hook groove 231 from being blocked or the hook 12 from being squeezed due to the convex suction surface. This ensures that the hook 12 can smoothly hook into the hook groove 231 and be stably suctioned. At the same time, it ensures that the suction force and the hooking force work together to further improve the reliability of the hook 12. Multiple clearance holes 120 correspond one-to-one with multiple hook posts 230, which can provide clearance space for each hook post 230 when the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is wound, avoiding the hook post 230 from contacting the outer wall of the storage wheel 100, and ensuring that the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is wound tightly and flat.
[0056] The support ribs 250 protrude from the adsorption surface of the magnetic attractor 240, and the hook posts 230 protrude from the support ribs 250. Multiple support ribs 250, multiple magnetic attractors 240, and multiple hook posts 230 are staggered to prevent the magnetic attractors 240 from pressing the hooks 12 against the outer wall of the receiving wheel 100 during the winding of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. During winding, the flexible auxiliary belt 200 adheres to the outer wall of the receiving wheel 100. If the support ribs 250 do not protrude from the adsorption surface of the magnetic attractor 240, the magnetic attractor 240 will directly contact the outer wall of the receiving wheel 100. Consequently, the magnetic attractor 240 will press the hooks 12 hooked onto the hook posts 230, i.e., the hooks 12 adsorbed on its adsorption surface, against the outer wall of the receiving wheel 100, easily leading to deformation and damage of the hooks 12. However, the support ribs 250 protrude from the adsorption surface of the magnetic attractor 240, and multiple support ribs 250 are staggered with the magnetic attractors 240. Multiple magnetic suction components 240 are arranged in an interleaved manner, which can effectively prevent the magnetic suction components 240 from directly adhering to the outer wall of the storage wheel 100, thereby effectively preventing the magnetic suction components 240 from squeezing the hook part 12 and protecting the hook part 12 intact. On the other hand, the length between any two adjacent support ribs 250 is greater than the length of the hook part 12, so that the hook part 12 can be stored in the area between any two adjacent support ribs 250, thereby preventing the support ribs 250 from squeezing the hook part 12 against the outer wall of the storage wheel 100 and causing the hook part 12 to deform and be damaged.
[0057] refer to Figures 8 to 11 The connecting surface 210 is provided with multiple mounting grooves 260, which are evenly distributed along the length of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. The mounting grooves 260 and multiple supporting ribs 250 are staggered. Multiple magnetic suction elements 240 are respectively disposed within the mounting grooves 260, and the adsorption surface of the magnetic suction elements 240 is flush with the opening of the mounting groove 260. The mounting grooves 260 provide installation space for the magnetic suction elements 240 and limit their positioning, allowing them to be accurately positioned on the mounting surface of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. In this embodiment, the magnetic suction elements 240 can be common magnets, and can be bonded to the inner wall of the mounting groove 260 by adhesive. As one embodiment of the invention, the flexible auxiliary belt 200, supporting ribs 250, and hook posts 230 are integrally formed. The flexible auxiliary belt 200 can be made of flexible materials such as silicone or rubber, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0058] refer to Figures 1 to 3The thread storage device also includes a housing 400, which has an inlet / outlet hole 430. The storage wheel 100 and the rotary drive mechanism 300 are both located inside the housing 400. The rotary drive mechanism 300 is connected to the housing 400. The inlet / outlet hole 430 is used for the flexible auxiliary belt 200, the hook 12 and the thread 11 to pass through. The outer wall of the housing 400 is provided with a hook 440, which is used for the upper end of the thread 11 to be connected. Understandably, when storing the thread 11, it is not necessary to detach the upper end of the thread 11 from the terminal of the holding part 10. First, hold the device and take the other end of the flexible auxiliary tape 200 out of the outer casing 400 through the inlet / outlet hole 430. Then, align the hook 12 connected to the lower end of the thread 11 with the hook groove 231 on the hook post 230 and hook the hook 12 into the hook groove 231. At this time, the magnetic attractor 240 will attract the hook 12 hooked on the hook post 230, completing the connection of the hook 12. Then, start the rotary drive mechanism 300 located inside and connected to the outer casing 400. The rotary drive mechanism 300 drives the storage wheel 100 connected to it to rotate. During the rotation of the storage wheel 100, it will wind the flexible auxiliary tape 200 around its own outer wall, and at the same time drive the rotary drive mechanism 300, the storage wheel 100 and the outer casing 400. Move upwards along the wire 11 toward the terminal of the grip 10; during this process, the flexible auxiliary tape 200 and the wire 11 will pass through the inlet / outlet hole 430 and gradually enter the interior of the housing 400. The flexible auxiliary tape 200 is wound around the outer wall of the storage wheel 100, and the wire 11 is wound around the winding surface 220 of the flexible auxiliary tape 200. The hook 12 is stored between the connecting surface 210 of the flexible auxiliary tape 200 and the outer wall of the storage wheel 100 as the flexible auxiliary tape 200 is wound. The hook 12 and the wound wire 11 are separated by the flexible auxiliary tape 200 until the wire 11 is completely wound and stored. Then, turn off the rotary drive mechanism 300, and then remove the upper end of the wire 11 from the terminal of the grip 10. Connect the upper end of the removed wire 11 to the hook 440 on the outer wall of the housing 400. This completes the entire wire 11 storage operation.
[0059] The outer casing 400 encloses both the storage wheel 100 and the rotary drive mechanism 300, effectively isolating them from external dust, mud, moisture, and other impurities. This prevents impurities from entering the connection between the rotary drive mechanism 300 and the storage wheel 100, extending their service life. Furthermore, the inlet / outlet holes 430 on the outer casing 400 provide a limiting and guiding function for the flexible auxiliary belt 200 and the thread 11, ensuring that the flexible auxiliary belt 200 moves in a fixed direction during winding and the thread 11 is wound, preventing deviation or tangling and ensuring smooth storage. The hook portion 440 on the outer wall of the outer casing 400 provides a fixed position for the upper end of the thread 11, preventing it from loosening and scattering when storing the thread storage device.
[0060] refer to Figures 1 to 3 The outer wall of the housing 400 is provided with a first guide portion 410 corresponding to the area of the inlet / outlet hole 430. The first guide portion 410 is used to abut against the hanger connected to the wire 11, so that the hanger can pass through the inlet / outlet hole 430 along the first guide portion 410 and enter the housing 400. The hanger refers to the component connected to the wire 11.
[0061] Understandably, after the hook 12 is connected to the flexible auxiliary belt 200, the rotary drive mechanism 300 inside the housing 400 is activated. The rotary drive mechanism 300 drives the collecting wheel 100 to rotate, and the collecting wheel 100 begins to wind the flexible auxiliary belt 200. During the process of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 passing through the inlet / outlet hole 430 into the housing 400, the first guide part 410 can abut against the support rib 250, magnetic attractor 240, and hook post 230 on the connecting surface 210 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. Under the guidance of the first guide part 410, the support rib 250, magnetic attractor 240, and hook post 230 can smoothly pass through the inlet / outlet hole 430 into the housing 400 along with the flexible auxiliary belt 200, avoiding the support rib 250, magnetic attractor 240, or hook post 230 getting stuck at the inlet / outlet hole 430, and ensuring that the winding and wrapping process proceeds smoothly. At the same time, the outer shell 400, the rotary drive mechanism 300, and the storage wheel 100 move upward along the thread 11 toward the terminal of the gripping part 10. The thread 11 drives the hanging part connected to it to move toward the inlet / outlet hole 430 of the outer shell 400. When the hanging part moves to the area of the outer wall of the outer shell 400 corresponding to the inlet / outlet hole 430, the hanging part will abut against the first guide part 410. Under the guidance of the first guide part 410, the hanging part smoothly passes through the inlet / outlet hole 430 and enters the outer shell 400, avoiding the hanging part from getting stuck at the inlet / outlet hole 430 and ensuring that the winding process is smooth. The first guide part 410 can guide the lead weight, float seat, support rib plate 250, magnetic suction component 240 and hook post 230, so as to prevent the lead weight, float seat, support rib plate 250, magnetic suction component 240 or hook post 230 from getting stuck at the inlet and outlet hole 430, which would cause the winding and entanglement process to be interrupted, and thus improve the stability of the wire storage device.
[0062] It should be explained that in the prior art, the thread 11 of the thread storage device is usually retrieved manually. That is, when the stored thread 11 needs to be used, the operator first removes the hook 12 fixed on the storage device from the storage device, and then holds the thread storage device to manually release the thread 11 wound on the storage device segment by segment, while using the other hand to pull the thread 11 to ensure that the thread 11 is released smoothly. After all the thread 11 has been released, the upper end of the thread 11 is detached from the storage device and connected to the terminal of the grip 10, thereby completing the retrieval of the thread 11. The traditional thread storage device relies entirely on manual unwinding and rewinding operations for retrieving the thread 11, which reduces the efficiency of retrieving the thread 11. On the other hand, during the manual unwinding and rewinding of the thread 11, the hook 12 is prone to getting caught on the released thread 11 after being removed, which requires additional time to disassemble the hook 12 and the thread 11, thus seriously affecting the efficiency and convenience of retrieving the thread 11.
[0063] refer to Figure 3The inner wall of the outer casing 400 is provided with a second guide portion 420 corresponding to the area of the inlet / outlet hole 430. The second guide portion 420 is used to abut against the mounting member so that the mounting member can pass through the inlet / outlet hole 430 along the second guide portion 420 and be removed from the outer casing 400.
[0064] Understandably, when the thread 11 stored in the thread storage device is needed, the thread 11 connected to the hook part 440 is first detached and connected to the terminal of the grip part 10. Then, the thread storage device is released, and under the action of gravity, the entire device moves downward, and the storage wheel 100 rotates in the opposite direction to release the thread 11 wound on the flexible auxiliary belt 200. As the thread 11 is unwound, the hanging part stored in the outer shell 400 will move towards the inlet / outlet hole 430 as the thread 11 is released. When the hanging part moves to the area of the inner wall of the outer shell 400 corresponding to the inlet / outlet hole 430, it will abut against the second guide part 420 located in that area. Under the guidance of the second guide part 420, the hanging part smoothly passes through the inlet / outlet hole 430 and comes out of the outer shell 400. During the unwinding of the yarn 11, the take-up wheel 100 continuously rotates in the opposite direction, and the yarn 11 wound on the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is gradually and completely unwound. After all the yarn 11 has been unwound, the take-up wheel 100 continues to rotate in the opposite direction to begin unwinding the flexible auxiliary belt 200. The flexible auxiliary belt 200 gradually unwinds from the take-up wheel 100 as the take-up wheel 100 rotates in the opposite direction, and the other end of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 moves synchronously toward the inlet / outlet hole 430. The second guide part 420 can also guide the flexible auxiliary belt 200. The guide section 420 serves as a guide, ensuring that the flexible auxiliary belt 200, support rib 250, and hook post 230 can smoothly pass through the inlet / outlet hole 430, ensuring a smooth unwinding process until the other end of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 passes through the inlet / outlet hole 430 and protrudes from the outer casing 400. At this point, the receiving wheel 100 stops rotating, stopping the unwinding process. Finally, the hook 12 is removed from the hook groove 231 of the hook post 230, and the hook 12 is released from the magnetic attraction 240, completing the entire line 11 retrieval process. The second guide section 420 guides the attachment during the retrieval process, preventing the attachment from getting stuck at the inlet / outlet hole 430, which could interrupt unwinding or damage the line 11, ensuring a smooth line 11 retrieval process. In the fishing tackle industry, attachments are commonly float seats and sinkers, which will not be described in detail here.
[0065] In an embodiment of the present invention, reference is made to Figure 2 and Figure 3 Both the first guide section 410 and the second guide section 420 are provided with smooth guide arc surfaces. Both the first guide section 410 and the second guide section 420 guide the plumb bob, the float seat, the support rib plate 250, the magnetic suction component 240 and the hook post 230 through the guide arc surfaces, which will not be described in detail here.
[0066] During the process of taking out the thread 11, the device moves downward by gravity. The receiving wheel 100 rotates in the opposite direction to gradually release the thread 11 wrapped on the winding surface 220 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200, and then unwinds the flexible auxiliary belt 200. Since the hook 12 and the wound thread 11 are separated by the flexible auxiliary belt 200, it can effectively prevent the hook 12 from hooking or tangling with the wound thread 11 during the taking out and unwinding process. Without the separation provided by the flexible auxiliary tape 200, when the line 11 is unwound, the hook 12 may become hooked or tangled with the line 11 as the line 11 moves, causing the line 11 to get stuck, pulled and damaged, or even unable to be unwound smoothly. This would require manual disassembly of the tangled line 11 and hook 12, significantly reducing retrieval efficiency and potentially causing the hook 12 to deform and the line 11 to break. Meanwhile, when the flexible auxiliary tape 200 is unwound and protrudes from the outer casing 400, the operator can remove the hook 12 without the line 11 becoming messy or tangled due to the separation between the hook 12 and the line 11. This ensures that the line 11 remains flat and smooth after the hook 12 is removed, allowing it to be used directly for fishing without additional handling, thus improving the ease of use of the line 11. The thread 11 retrieval process of the thread storage device in this embodiment of the invention does not require manual unwinding of the thread 11 segment by segment. It is only necessary to detach the upper end of the thread 11 from the hook part 440 and connect it to the terminal of the grip part 10. After releasing the device, the thread 11 and the flexible auxiliary belt 200 can be gradually unwound by gravity, which simplifies the thread retrieval steps. On the other hand, in the thread storage device of this embodiment of the invention, the hook part 12 is always stably hooked on the hook post 230 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 and attracted by the magnetic attractant 240. The hook part 12 and the thread 11 wrapped on the winding surface 220 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 are separated by the flexible auxiliary belt 200. Moreover, the hook part 12 is released last, which fundamentally avoids the hook part 12 from hooking with the released thread 11, and eliminates the subsequent steps of disassembling the hook part 12 and the thread 11, thereby improving the retrieval efficiency and convenience of the thread 11.
[0067] refer to Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the storage wheel 100 has a mounting cavity 140 formed on the side facing the rotary drive mechanism 300. The rotary drive mechanism 300 includes a motor 330, a gear ring 310, and a gear transmission assembly 320. The gear ring 310 is connected to the inner wall of the mounting cavity 140. The motor 330 is connected to the inner wall of the housing 400 and extends into the mounting cavity 140. The output gear in the gear transmission assembly 320 meshes with the gear ring 310, and the input gear in the gear transmission assembly 320 is connected to the output end of the motor 330. When the storage wheel 100 needs to be driven to rotate, the motor 330 is started. The output end of the motor 330 starts to rotate and drives the input gear of the gear transmission assembly 320 connected to it to rotate synchronously. When the input gear rotates, it drives the gear structure inside the gear transmission assembly 320 to rotate, thereby driving the output gear of the gear transmission assembly 320 to rotate. Since the output gear meshes with the gear ring 310 fixed on the inner side wall of the mounting cavity 140 of the storage wheel 100, the rotation of the output gear will generate meshing transmission with the gear ring 310, thereby driving the storage wheel 100 to rotate around its own axis, realizing the storage of the thread 11. The motor 330, gear ring 310 and gear transmission assembly 320 are all common configurations. Each gear in the gear transmission assembly 320 is rotatably connected inside the housing 400, which will not be described in detail here. During the process of taking the thread 11, the gear transmission group 320 can slow down the downward movement speed, so that the whole device can descend smoothly and slowly, avoiding damage to the thread 11 due to excessive gravity falling too fast, and ensuring the stability of the unwinding process of the thread 11.
[0068] In this embodiment of the invention, the rotary drive mechanism 300 is used to drive the storage wheel 100 to rotate along a first direction or a second direction, wherein the first direction and the second direction are opposite. Figure 4 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 The direction of the solid arrow in the diagram indicates the first turn. Figure 12 and Figure 13The direction of the dashed arrow in the diagram indicates the second turning direction. This invention also discloses a method for storing the thread 11. This storage method is applied to the thread storage device of this embodiment. The storage method includes the following steps: S1, maintaining the connection between the upper end of the thread 11 and the terminal of the gripping part 10, and connecting the hook 12 connected to the lower end of the thread 11 to the connecting surface 210 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200; S2, activating the rotary drive mechanism 300, which drives the storage wheel 100 to rotate along the first turning direction, causing the outer shell 400, the storage wheel 100, and the rotary drive mechanism 300 to move upwards along the thread 11 towards the terminal of the gripping part 10, and causing the flexible auxiliary belt 200 to wrap around the storage wheel 100. S3. After the outer casing 400 abuts against the terminal of the gripping part 10, the rotary drive mechanism 300 first stops driving the storage wheel 100 to rotate, and then the rotary drive mechanism 300 drives the storage wheel 100 to rotate in the second direction, so that part of the thread 11 wound on the winding surface 220 is unwound. After the storage wheel 100 rotates in the second direction for a preset number of turns, the rotary drive mechanism 300 stops driving the storage wheel 100 to rotate. S4. The upper end of the thread 11 is removed from the terminal of the gripping part 10, and the upper end of the thread 11 is connected to the hook part 440 on the outer wall of the outer casing 400.
[0069] Understandably, when storing the thread 11, first maintain a stable connection between the upper end of the thread 11 and the terminal of the holding part 10 to prevent the upper end of the thread 11 from detaching from the terminal of the holding part 10, which could cause the thread 11 to become soiled or tangled. Then, the operator holds the hook 12 connected to the lower end of the thread 11, aligns the hook 12 with the hook post 230 on the connecting surface 210 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200, and hooks the hook 12 into the hook groove 231 on the hook post 230. At this time, the magnetic attractant 240 on the connecting surface 210 immediately attracts the hook 12 after hooking, achieving double fixation between the hook 12 and the flexible auxiliary belt 200. Next, the operator starts the rotary drive mechanism 300, which drives the storage wheel 100 to rotate along the first direction. The outer shell 400 moves smoothly upward along the thread 11 toward the connection end of the grip part 10, together with the storage wheel 100 and the rotary drive mechanism 300. During the rotation of the storage wheel 100 along the first direction, the flexible auxiliary belt 200 gradually winds around the outer wall of the storage wheel 100 from the connection end connected to the storage wheel 100 to the free end, and the hook post 230 on the connection surface 210 simultaneously extends into the clearance hole 120 on the outer wall of the storage wheel 100. At the same time, the rotating storage wheel 100 drives the thread 11 to gradually wind around the winding surface 220 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200. The rotary drive mechanism 300 continuously drives the storage wheel 100 to rotate along the first direction until the outer casing 400 moves to abut against the terminal of the grip part 10. At this time, the thread 11 is basically completely wrapped around the winding surface 220 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200, and the storage wheel 100 stops moving upward. Subsequently, the rotary drive mechanism 300 first stops driving the storage wheel 100 to rotate along the first direction. After a short pause, the rotary drive mechanism 300 drives the storage wheel 100 to rotate along the second direction opposite to the first direction, so that part of the thread 11 originally wrapped around the winding surface 220 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 is slowly unwound, forming a reserved thread 11. After the storage wheel 100 rotates a preset number of times along the second direction (the preset number of times is set according to the actual storage needs to ensure that the length of the reserved thread 11 is sufficient for the operator to operate), the rotary drive mechanism 300 stops driving the storage wheel 100 to rotate, and the reserved thread 11 remains in a natural hanging state. Then, the operator holds the reserved portion of the thread 11 and slowly removes the upper end of the thread 11 from the terminal of the gripping part 10. Subsequently, the upper end of the removed thread 11 is aligned with the hook part 440 on the outer wall of the housing 400, and the upper end of the thread 11 is stably connected to the hook part 440 to fix the upper end of the thread 11. At this time, the hook part 12 is still stably stored between the connecting surface 210 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200 and the outer wall of the storage wheel 100. The thread 11 is neatly wound on the winding surface 220 of the flexible auxiliary belt 200, and the reserved thread 11 naturally adheres to the outside of the housing 400, thus completing the entire thread 11 storage operation.
[0070] The thread 11 storage method of this invention does not require manual winding of the thread 11 by the operator during the entire storage process. Only the connection between the hook 12 and the flexible auxiliary belt 200 and the start of the rotation drive mechanism 300 are required to realize the automatic winding of the thread 11 and the synchronous movement of the device. There is no need to disassemble the upper end of the thread 11 in advance, which avoids the problems of easy falling, staining, and tangling of the upper end of the thread 11 after disassembly in the traditional storage method. It greatly reduces the operation difficulty of the operator and improves the convenience and efficiency of thread 11 storage. In step S3, the collecting wheel 100 rotates along the second direction and unwinds a section of reserved thread 11. This mainly provides ample operating space and convenient conditions for the operator to disassemble the upper end of the thread 11 and connect it to the hook part 440. Without this reserved thread 11, when the outer shell 400 abuts against the terminal of the grip part 10, the thread 11 is in a completely taut state. The connection position between the upper end of the thread 11 and the terminal of the grip part 10 is close to the outer shell 400, resulting in a narrow operating space for the operator. When disassembling the upper end of the thread 11, it is very easy to pull the thread 11, causing the thread 11 to become entangled and damaged, or even... The original design prevents easy disassembly; however, the pre-reserved thread 11 creates a certain distance between the upper end of the thread 11 and the disassembly point of the grip 10 and the outer casing 400, allowing the operator to easily hold the pre-reserved thread 11 for disassembly without pulling or tangling the thread 11. At the same time, the length of the pre-reserved thread 11 is sufficient for the operator to smoothly connect the upper end of the thread 11 to the hook 440 of the outer casing 400 without having to pull the already tangled thread 11, ensuring the neatness and integrity of the thread 11 after storage, and greatly improving the ease of disassembling and fixing the upper end of the thread 11.
[0071] As one way to connect the upper end of the wire 11, after the operator removes the upper end of the wire 11, the reserved wire 11 can be wrapped around the hook portion 440 on the outer wall of the housing 400 to complete the connection between the upper end of the wire 11 and the hook portion 440. As another way to connect the upper end of the wire 11, currently, the upper end of the wire 11 is often connected to the terminal of the grip portion 10 by a locking buckle. After the operator removes the locking buckle from the terminal of the grip portion 10, the locking buckle can be hung on the hook portion 440 to complete the connection between the upper end of the wire 11 and the hook portion 440.
[0072] In this embodiment of the invention, the rotary drive mechanism 300 includes a rechargeable battery, a control module, and a motor 330. The rechargeable battery is electrically connected to the control module and the motor 330 and provides stable power to both. The control module is electrically connected to the motor 330 and is used to control the start, stop, and output direction of the motor 330, thereby enabling the storage wheel 100 to rotate along a first or second direction. The control button of the control module is exposed on the housing 400 for easy operation by the operator. When the operator presses the control button, the control module controls the motor 330 to start. The motor 330 drives the storage wheel 100 to rotate along the first direction through the gear transmission group 320, causing the entire device to move upward along the thread 11. When the housing 400 moves to abut against the terminal of the gripping part 10, the entire device cannot continue to move upward. At this time, the storage wheel 100 is subjected to a reverse resistance transmitted from the terminal of the gripping part 10 through the housing 400. This reverse resistance acts on the storage wheel 100 and is then transmitted to the output shaft of the motor 330, resulting in an increase in the load on the motor 330. Since the load and operating current of motor 330 are positively correlated, the operating current of motor 330 will increase synchronously when the load increases. The current detection unit built into the control module can detect the change in the operating current of motor 330 in real time. When the current of motor 330 is detected to rise to a preset threshold, it is determined that the outer shell 400 has abutted against the terminal of the grip part 10. At this time, the control module triggers a steering control command, first controlling motor 330 to stop rotating, pausing briefly to eliminate the inertial effect of motor 330, and then controlling motor 330 to output in the opposite direction. Through gear transmission group 320, it drives the take-up wheel 100 to rotate in a second direction opposite to the first direction, thereby realizing the unwinding of part of the thread 11 and forming the reserved thread 11. As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the preset number of turns is half a turn.
