Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of fishing tackle technology, and in particular to a clamping device and fishing tackle. Background Technology
[0002] In the initial preparation for fishing, tying the hook and line is an essential step. Currently, most hook-tying tools on the market are simple auxiliary structures, requiring manual support and positioning of the hook during use. The process involves repeatedly adjusting the hook's position and the line's winding position, resulting in fragmented and poorly connected steps. These existing tools cannot quickly secure or easily untie the hook, making the overall process cumbersome and time-consuming. Summary of the Invention

The clamping member is disposed on the main body and includes an upper plate and a lower plate. A placement space for placing the fishhook is provided between the upper plate and the lower plate. The connecting member passes through the upper plate and is connected to the lower plate; or, the connecting member passes through the lower plate and is connected to the upper plate. When the connecting member is screwed on, the upper plate and the lower plate come together to clamp the fishhook.
[0005] Furthermore, the clamping member is provided with at least one positioning groove for placing the hook shank and / or the hook tip of the fishhook.
[0006] Furthermore, the main body is provided with a plurality of abutment posts for abutting the curved portion of the fishhook, and both the upper plate and the lower plate are provided with through holes, the abutment posts extending through one of the through holes into the other through hole; or, the clamping member is provided with a plurality of abutment posts for abutting the curved portion of the fishhook, the lower plate is provided with through holes, and the abutment posts extending into the through holes.
[0007] Furthermore, it also includes: an elastic element disposed between the upper plate and the lower plate, the two ends of the elastic element abutting against the upper plate and the lower plate respectively.
[0008] Furthermore, the elastic element is sleeved on the connector.
[0009] Furthermore, a roller is provided at the end of the main body away from the placement space.
[0010] Furthermore, it also includes: a gripping member, wherein the gripping member is provided with a rolling hole penetrating the gripping member, the roller is rotatably disposed within the rolling hole, and the roller protrudes from the rolling hole.
[0011] Furthermore, the main body is provided with a protrusion, and the gripping member is provided with a limiting groove; or, the main body is provided with a limiting groove, and the gripping member is provided with a protrusion, the protrusion being limited within the limiting groove to restrict the relative rotation of the gripping member and the main body.
[0012] Furthermore, the gripper is provided with a ball bearing, and the roller is provided with a first circumferential groove and a second circumferential groove at intervals. When the protrusion is limited in the limiting groove, the ball bearing is engaged in the first circumferential groove; when the protrusion is disengaged from the limiting groove, the ball bearing is engaged in the second circumferential groove.
[0013] This embodiment also provides a fishing tackle, including the clamping device described above.
[0014] This invention discloses a clamping device and fishing tackle. The clamping device, used to clamp fishhooks, includes a main body, a clamping member, and a connecting member.

[0021] Please see Figures 1-5 This embodiment provides a clamping device for clamping a fishhook 6, including: a main body 1, a clamping member 2, and a connecting member 3. The clamping member 2 is disposed on the main body 1 and includes an upper plate 21 and a lower plate 22. A placement space 221 for placing the fishhook 6 is provided between the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22. The connecting member 3 passes through the upper plate 21 and is connected to the lower plate 22; or, the connecting member 3 passes through the lower plate 22 and is connected to the upper plate 21. When the connecting member 3 is screwed on, the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22 come together to clamp the fishhook 6.
[0022] When clamping the fishhook 6, first place the fishhook 6 into the placement space 221 between the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22, so that the fishhook 6 is stably placed in the clamping area, completing the initial placement of the fishhook 6. Then, the connector 3 is screwed. During the screwing process, the connector 3 will drive the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22 to move closer to each other, and the distance between the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22 will continue to decrease. The placement space 221 will gradually narrow, and finally the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22 will fit tightly against the fishhook 6, firmly clamping the fishhook 6 in the placement space 221, completing the clamping and fixing of the fishhook 6.
[0023] More specifically, the clamping device includes a main body 1, which serves as the supporting foundation for the entire mechanism, and a clamping component 2 is installed inside. The clamping component 2 consists of an upper plate 21 and a lower plate 22. One end of the upper plate 21 and one end of the lower plate 22 are connected to each other, forming a U-shaped elastic structure that is connected at the tail and can be opened and closed at the front. A naturally open placement space 221 is maintained between the other end of the upper plate 21 and the other end of the lower plate 22. During operation, the shank of the fishhook 6 is directly placed into the placement space 221, with one side of the shank adhering to the inner wall of the upper plate 21 and the other side adhering to the inner wall of the lower plate 22, achieving initial positioning. Then, a connector 3, which passes through the upper plate 21 and connects to the lower plate 22, is screwed on. Under the action of the threaded engagement, the connector 3 converts the rotational motion into axial displacement, driving the other end of the upper plate 21 to retract towards the lower plate 22. As the connector 3 is tightened, the gap between the other end of the upper plate 21 and the other end of the lower plate 22 gradually decreases. The inner walls of the two plates apply pressure evenly to the hook shank from both top and bottom directions until the fishhook 6 is securely clamped within the placement space 221. Because the threaded connection between the connector 3 and the lower plate 22 has a self-locking characteristic, the clamped fishhook 6 will not loosen or shift during the tying process, ensuring the stability of subsequent line winding steps. The entire clamping process can be completed simply by holding the main body 1 with one hand and twisting the connector 3 with your fingers, without the need for additional tools. The operation path is short and direct, significantly simplifying the process of fixing the fishhook 6.
[0024] In this embodiment, the clamping member 2 is provided with at least one positioning groove 23 for placing the hook shank and / or the hook tip of the fishhook 6 (e.g., Figure 5 (As shown).
[0025] Specifically, the clamping member 2 has at least one positioning groove 23 on the inner wall of the upper plate 21 or lower plate 22 facing the placement space 221. The positioning groove 23 extends along the insertion direction of the fishhook 6 and has a concave shape adapted to the contour of the hook shank or hook point. During operation, the fishhook 6 is moved into the placement space 221 between the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22. The hook shank of the fishhook 6 can be placed into the positioning groove 23 alone, so that the hook shank is embedded in the groove and limited by the groove wall from both sides, preventing the hook shank from deflecting before clamping. Alternatively, the hook point of the fishhook 6 can be placed into the positioning groove 23 alone, with the groove covering the hook point to prevent the sharp hook point from accidentally scratching the inner wall of the clamping plate or the operator's fingers, while also protecting the hook point. At the same time, the groove wall can also limit the hook point from both sides, preventing the hook point from deflecting before clamping. A more reliable method is to simultaneously provide two positioning grooves 23 on the clamping component 2, corresponding to the positions of the hook shank and hook tip respectively. One positioning groove 23 accommodates the hook shank, and the other positioning groove 23 accommodates the hook tip. When the fishhook 6 is inserted, the hook shank and hook tip each fall into their corresponding positioning grooves 23. The entire hook body posture of the fishhook 6 is predetermined before clamping, preventing it from freely rotating or moving within the placement space 221. Subsequently, by screwing on the connecting component 3, the other end of the upper plate 21 gradually moves closer to the lower plate 22, continuously reducing the height of the placement space 221. During this space-closing process, the positioning grooves 23 continuously constrain the hook shank and hook tip, guiding the fishhook 6 to remain stationary in the preset orientation until the upper plate 21 and lower plate 22 firmly clamp the fishhook 6 from both sides. This design ensures that the fishhook 6 maintains a consistent clamping posture each time, providing a unified operational benchmark for subsequent line binding. When the shank and tip of the fishhook 6 are placed in two independent positioning grooves 23 respectively, the two grooves simultaneously constrain different parts of the fishhook 6. The setting of multiple positioning grooves 23 can match fishhooks 6 of different specifications, avoiding the problem that a single-size positioning groove 23 cannot adapt to multiple fishhooks 6.
[0026] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The main body 1 is provided with a plurality of abutment posts 11 for abutting the curved part of the fishhook 6. Both the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22 are provided with through holes 211, and the abutment posts 11 extend through one of the through holes 211 into the other through hole 211; or, the clamping member 2 is provided with a plurality of abutment posts 11 for abutting the curved part of the fishhook 6, and the lower plate 22 is provided with through holes 211, and the abutment posts 11 extend into the through holes 211.
[0027] Specifically, in order to effectively limit the bending portion of the fishhook 6, a structure is provided in which the abutment post 11 mates with the through hole 211. There are two possible implementation methods.
[0028] The first method involves the main body 1 having multiple abutment posts 11 for abutting the curved portion of the fishhook 6. These abutment posts 11 limit the arc-shaped curved portion of the fishhook 6 during clamping. Corresponding through holes 211 are provided on the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22. The abutment posts 11 pass through the through hole 211 on one side of the lower plate 22, through the placement space 221, and extend into the through hole 211 of the upper plate 21 (or the abutment posts 11 pass through the through hole 211 on one side of the upper plate 21, through the placement space 221, and extend into the through hole 211 of the lower plate 22), thus forming a limiting fulcrum across the placement space 221 between the upper and lower plates. On the clamping member 2, the inner wall of the upper plate 21 or the lower plate 22 has a positioning groove 23 that matches the shape of the hook shank or hook tip. The positioning grooves 23 correspond spatially to the abutment posts 11. During operation, the fishhook 6 is passed through the placement space 221 between the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22, and hooked onto one of the abutment posts 11 (for example, a small fishhook can be hooked onto the abutment post 11 at the other end closer to the upper plate 21, and a large fishhook can be hooked onto the abutment post 11 at the other end farther from the upper plate 21). The inner arc surface of the curved part contacts the outer peripheral surface of the abutment post 11, thus determining the longitudinal position of the fishhook 6 within the placement space 221. At the same time, the hook shank or hook tip is embedded into the corresponding positioning groove 23. The recessed inner wall of the positioning groove 23 laterally constrains the hook shank or hook tip, determining the placement direction of the fishhook 6 in the horizontal plane. At this time, the fishhook 6 forms a pre-positioned state with multiple points of contact under the combined action of the lateral limitation of the positioning groove 23 and the longitudinal support of the abutment post 11. Then, the connector 3 is screwed on, and the connector 3 causes the other end of the upper plate 21 to gradually move towards the lower plate 22, thereby reducing the vertical distance of the placement space 221. During the closing process, the abutment post 11 remains in position, passing through the upper and lower through holes 211. The contact points between the curved part of the fishhook 6 and the abutment post 11, as well as the contact points between the hook shank or hook tip and the positioning groove 23, together form a stable clamping fulcrum system. The inner walls of the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22 press against the hook shank and hook tip of the fishhook 6 from the upper and lower sides. The clamping force is evenly transmitted to the surface of the fishhook 6 through the positioning groove 23, while the abutment post 11 holds the curved part longitudinally, preventing the fishhook 6 from moving longitudinally along the placement space 221 under the action of clamping force. When the connector 3 is screwed into place, the fishhook 6 is completely fixed in the space jointly defined by the positioning groove 23, the abutment post 11, and the inner walls of the upper and lower plates 22, with a stable and reliable posture, providing a uniform and accurate reference position for subsequent line binding operations.
[0029] In another configuration, the abutment posts 11 are directly mounted on the clamping member 2. Specifically, multiple abutment posts 11 are fixed to the lower plate 22 and extend towards the placement space 221. The upper plate 21 has corresponding through holes 211, and the other end of the abutment post 11 extends into the through hole 211. When inserting the fishhook 6, the curved part is first placed against the abutment post 11 extending from the lower plate 22 for longitudinal positioning, and then the hook shank or hook tip is placed into the positioning groove 23 for lateral positioning. When tightening the connector 3, the upper plate 21 moves closer to the lower plate 22, and the upper end of the abutment post 11 enters the through hole 211 of the upper plate 21. Throughout the clamping process, the abutment post 11 and the positioning groove 23 work together to keep the fishhook 6 in the same position until the fishhook 6 is firmly clamped.
[0030] In this embodiment, it also includes: elastic element 4 (such as...) Figure 4 As shown), the elastic element 4 is disposed between the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22, and the two ends of the elastic element 4 abut against the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22 respectively.
[0031] Specifically, the clamping device also includes an elastic element 4, which can be an elastic object such as a spring or a pressure plate. The elastic element 4 is disposed between the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22, in the rear area of the placement space 221 corresponding to the other end of the upper plate 21 and the other end of the lower plate 22. The upper end of the elastic element 4 abuts against the inner wall of the upper plate 21, and the lower end of the elastic element 4 abuts against the inner wall of the lower plate 22. When no external force is applied, the upper and lower ends exert outward pushing forces on the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22 respectively, keeping the other end of the upper plate 21 and the other end of the lower plate 22 in a naturally open state, thereby maintaining the placement space 221 in a normally open position. During operation, the user first moves the fishhook 6 into the placement space 221 between the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22. At this time, the opening force provided by the elastic element 4 keeps the height of the placement space 221 at its maximum, and the hook shank and hook point of the fishhook 6 can be inserted without obstruction, without having to manually pry open the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22. After the fishhook 6 is inserted, the hook shank side abuts against the positioning groove 23 on the inner wall of the lower plate 22, and the bent part abuts against the abutment post 11 extending from the lower plate 22, completing the initial positioning of the fishhook 6 in the placement space 221. Then, the connector 3 is screwed on, and the connector 3 applies axial tension through the threaded engagement, driving the upper plate 21 to gradually move towards the lower plate 22 against the thrust of the elastic element 4. During this process, the elastic element 4 is compressed and shortened, and the abutment force at both ends against the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22 changes from thrust to stored pressure. The deformation stroke of the elastic element 4 is synchronized with the displacement stroke of the upper plate 21, making the closing movement of the upper plate 21 smooth and controllable. As the connector 3 continues to tighten, the inner wall of the upper plate 21 contacts the upper surface of the fishhook 6, and the inner wall of the lower plate 22 supports the lower surface of the fishhook 6 through the positioning groove 23. The elastic element 4 is compressed to its limit, and the gap in the placement space 221 is locked in a state that just presses the fishhook 6 tightly, thus firmly clamping the fishhook 6. When the tying operation is completed and the fishhook 6 needs to be removed, the connector 3 is twisted in the opposite direction. The axial constraint of the connector 3 on the upper plate 21 is gradually released. The elastic potential energy stored in the elastic element 4 is immediately converted into a restoring force to the original state. This restoring force acts on the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22 simultaneously through both ends of the elastic element 4, automatically pushing the upper plate 21 upward. The height of the placement space 221 quickly returns to the initial maximum opening state. The fishhook 6 then loses the clamping force and can be directly removed from the placement space 221, eliminating the need to manually pry open or break open the clamping plate.
[0032] In this embodiment, the elastic element 4 is sleeved on the connector 3.
[0033] Specifically, the elastic element 4 is fitted onto the connecting element 3. The connecting element 3 consists of a screw head and a screw body. The screw body enters from the top surface of the upper plate 21, passes through the through hole 211 of the upper plate 21, and continues downward. The elastic element 4 is fitted onto the outer periphery of the section of the screw body located between the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22. The upper end of the elastic element 4 abuts against the lower wall surface of the upper plate 21, and the lower end of the elastic element 4 abuts against the upper wall surface of the lower plate 22 or the supporting surface around the through hole 211 of the lower plate 22, so that the elastic element 4 is axially installed between the upper and lower plates 22. In the initial state without clamping, the elastic element 4 uses its own elastic force to push the upper plate 21 upward, forming a placement space 221 with maximum height between the free end of the upper plate 21 and the free end of the lower plate 22. The entire placement space 221 remains open.
[0034] In use, the screw head of connector 3 is screwed on, and the screw body rotates in conjunction with the threaded hole on the lower plate 22. The screw head presses downward against the top surface of the upper plate 21, and the entire connector 3 continues to move downward. As connector 3 moves downward, the elastic element 4 sleeved on its body is gradually compressed. Under the thrust of the screw head, the upper plate 21 overcomes the upward elastic force of the elastic element 4 and smoothly moves downward. Since the elastic element 4 is compressed while sleeved on connector 3, the body of connector 3 acts as the internal guide shaft of the elastic element 4. The compression direction of the elastic element 4 always coincides with the movement axis of connector 3. The elastic element 4 will not bend or shift laterally during compression, and the downward pressing action of the upper plate 21 is therefore smoother and more stable.
[0035] In this embodiment, a roller 12 (e.g., ...) is provided at one end of the main body 1 away from the placement space 221. Figure 3 (As shown).
[0036] Specifically, a roller 12 is fixedly connected to one end of the main body 1 away from the placement space 221. The axis of the roller 12 is perpendicular or parallel to the axis of the main body 1, and the outer peripheral surface of the roller 12 is exposed to the outside of the main body 1, allowing the user's fingers to directly contact and operate it. The roller 12 is rigidly fixed to the main body 1, and the roller 12 cannot rotate freely relative to the main body 1. The rotational force applied by the user to the roller 12 is directly transmitted to the entire main body 1, and then from the main body 1 to the clamping member 2 and the fishhook 6 fixed by the clamping member 2.
[0037] In practical use, the user first clamps the fishhook 6 securely within the placement space 221 between the upper plate 21 and the lower plate 22. After the fishhook 6 is secured, the user inserts the fishing line to be tied into the eye of the fishhook 6 and pulls out the desired length of line. One hand holds the line end and the main line portion to maintain tension, while the other hand holds the outer surface of the roller 12 mounted at the rear of the main body 1. Since the roller 12 is fixedly connected to the main body 1, when the user twists the roller 12 with their thumb and forefinger to rotate it around the axis of the main body 1, the entire main body 1, the clamping member 2, and the clamped fishhook 6 rotate together. As the fishhook 6 rotates around its own shank axis, the fishing line automatically winds around, maintaining tension. The number of turns and the speed of winding are entirely controlled by the user's twisting of the roller 12. Once the desired number of turns has been achieved, the user stops twisting the roller 12, passes the line end through the formed loop, and pulls it tight, thus completing the tying operation. Throughout the entire process, from clamping the hook 6 to winding the line, the user can maintain a stable grip on the tool and the hook 6. The winding action is achieved by twisting the roller 12 with the fingers, without having to swing the entire wrist or arm. The operation is effortless and the winding effect is neat and consistent.
[0038] For further details, please refer to Figure 7 It also includes: a gripping member 5, which has a rolling hole 51 extending through it, and a roller 12 rotatably disposed within the rolling hole 51, with the roller 12 protruding out of the rolling hole 51.
[0039] Specifically, a grip 5 is provided at the end of the main body 1 away from the placement space 221, serving as the handheld part of the tool. A rolling hole 51 is provided inside the grip 5, which is a through hole extending through two opposing surfaces of the grip 5. A roller 12 is housed within the rolling hole 51, with both ends of the roller 12 rotatably engaging with the groove wall of the rolling hole 51, allowing the roller 12 to rotate freely around its own axis within the rolling hole 51. A portion of the outer circumferential surface of the roller 12 protrudes outward through the rolling hole 51, with a protrusion height sufficient to allow the user's fingertips stable contact.
[0040] Before tying the line, the user first secures the fishhook 6 within the placement space 221 using the clamping member 2, thus securing the fishhook 6. After securing the fishhook 6, the user threads the fishing line through the hook eye, pinches the fishing line with one hand to maintain appropriate tension, and holds the grip member 5 with the other hand, pressing the pad of the thumb or forefinger onto the outer surface of the roller 12 protruding from the rolling hole 51. Since the roller 12 is rotatably positioned within the rolling hole 51, the user's fingertips slightly rub the protruding part of the roller 12, causing the roller 12 to rotate flexibly within the rolling hole 51. The rubbing force applied to the roller 12 is converted into a torque that drives the main body 1 and the clamping member 2 to rotate together around the axis of the main body 1 through the cooperation of the roller 12 and the rolling hole 51 (the roller 12 can also be driven by a motor). As the roller 12 is continuously rubbed, the main body 1, carrying the clamped fishhook 6, rotates continuously. The fishing line is neatly wound while remaining taut. Each time the roller 12 is rubbed, the fishhook 6 rotates through the corresponding angle, winding one turn of the fishing line. The rolling hole 51 provides a closed and stable rotational support for the roller 12. When the fishing line has been wound to the preset number of turns, the user stops rubbing the roller 12, passes the end of the line through the loop formed by the winding, and tightens it to complete the tying. To remove the fishhook 6, the connecting piece 3 is twisted in the opposite direction, and the elastic piece 4 springs open the upper plate 21, allowing the tied fishhook 6 to be removed from the placement space 221.
[0041] Furthermore, the main body 1 is provided with protrusions 13 (such as...). Figure 3 As shown), the gripper 5 is provided with a limiting groove 52 (as shown). Figure 7 (as shown); or, the main body 1 is provided with a limiting groove 52, and the gripping member 5 is provided with a protrusion 13, which can be limited in the limiting groove 52 to restrict the relative rotation of the gripping member 5 and the main body 1.
[0042] Specifically, a protrusion 13 is fixedly provided on the main body 1, protruding radially outward from the outer peripheral surface of the main body 1. A limiting groove 52 is formed on the inner wall or end face of the corresponding position of the grip 5, with the opening of the limiting groove 52 facing the protrusion 13 and its inner contour matching the shape of the protrusion 13. In another configuration, the protrusion 13 is provided on the grip 5, while the limiting groove 52 is formed on the main body 1. The positions of the two are interchanged, but the fitting relationship remains unchanged. Under normal conditions, the protrusion 13 is embedded in the limiting groove 52, and the two side walls of the protrusion 13 are tightly fitted with the two corresponding groove walls of the limiting groove 52, so that the main body 1 and the grip 5 cannot rotate relative to each other, and the two are locked into a whole in the circumferential direction.
[0043] Before tying the line, the user holds the gripper 5, places the fishhook 6 into the placement space 221 of the clamping member 2, and screws on the connector 3 to firmly clamp the fishhook 6. At this time, the protrusion 13 remains within the limiting groove 52, the main body 1 cannot rotate relative to the gripper 5, and the entire tool is in a rigid grip state, making it easy for the user to clamp the fishhook 6 with one hand. After the fishhook 6 is fixed, the fishing line is passed through the hook eye and a suitable length of line is pulled out, with one hand holding the fishing line to maintain tension. The other hand holds the gripper 5, and by applying a pulling or pushing force along the axis of the main body 1, the main body 1 is axially displaced relative to the gripper 5, and the protrusion 13 slides out of the limiting groove 52 axially, releasing the circumferential constraint of the limiting groove 52 on the protrusion 13. At this time, the main body 1 and the gripper 5 only maintain an axial sliding fit, and the circumferential rotational freedom is completely released.
[0044] Since the roller 12 is rotatably positioned within and protrudes from the rolling hole 51 of the grip 5, the user rubs the protruding part of the roller 12 with the fingertips of the same hand holding the tool. The roller 12 rotates within the rolling hole 51, driving the cooperating main body 1 to rotate together. Because the protrusion 13 has disengaged from the limiting groove 52, the rotation of the main body 1 is no longer hindered by the grip 5. The main body 1, carrying the front clamping member 2 and the clamped fishhook 6, rotates continuously around the axis, and the fishing line is evenly wound around the hook shank. During the winding process, the user's hand always holds the grip 5 and remains stationary, controlling the rotation angle and speed only by rubbing the roller 12 with the fingertips, ensuring the stable posture of the grip 5.
[0045] Once the fishing line has been wound to the preset number of turns, the user stops rubbing the roller 12 and pushes the main body 1 back to its initial position axially, causing the protrusion 13 to re-engage in the limiting groove 52. The two side walls of the limiting groove 52 then conform to the side walls of the protrusion 13, restoring the circumferential locking between the main body 1 and the grip 5, making the entire tool a unified fixed structure once again. At this point, the tool returns to a rigid state, allowing the user to stably perform subsequent line threading and tightening operations without any accidental rotation of the main body 1 when tightening the fishing line. Finally, the connecting piece 3 is twisted in the opposite direction, causing the elastic piece 4 to spring open the upper plate 21, allowing the fishhook 6 to be removed, thus completing the entire process.
[0046] In this embodiment, the gripper 5 is provided with a ball bearing 53 (e.g., ...). Figure 7 As shown), the roller 12 is provided with a first circumferential groove 121 and a second circumferential groove 122 at circumferential intervals (as shown). Figure 3 As shown, when the protrusion 13 is limited within the limiting groove 52, the ball 53 is engaged in the first circumferential groove 121; when the protrusion 13 is disengaged from the limiting groove 52, the ball 53 is engaged in the second circumferential groove 122.
[0047] Specifically, the gripper 5 is provided with a ball bearing 53, which is installed in a hole in the inner wall of the gripper 5. The spherical part of the ball bearing 53 is exposed inward and can elastically expand and contract radially under the action of external force. The outer circumferential surface of the roller 12 is provided with a first circumferential groove 121 and a second circumferential groove 122 spaced apart along the axial direction. Both circumferential grooves are annular grooves that surround the circumference of the roller 12, and the groove depth is sufficient to accommodate part of the spherical part of the ball bearing 53.
[0048] When the tool is in its non-wound state, the protrusion 13 on the main body 1 is embedded in the limiting groove 52 on the grip 5, and the main body 1 and the grip 5 are circumferentially locked into an integral structure that cannot rotate relative to each other. At the same time, the roller 12 is in the first axial position, and the ball 53 on the grip 5 is aligned with the first circumferential groove 121 on the roller 12. Under the pushing force of the elastic member 4 on its back, part of the ball 53 is stuck into the first circumferential groove 121, and the spherical surface of the ball 53 is in close contact with the groove wall of the circumferential groove. The locking force of the ball 53 on the circumferential groove keeps the roller 12 stably in its current position in the axial direction. With the circumferential locking of the protrusion 13 and the limiting groove 52, all degrees of freedom of movement of the entire tool are constrained, and the main body 1 can neither rotate nor slide axially at will. In this state, the user can use one hand to twist the connecting piece 3 to clamp the fishhook 6 in the placement space 221, and the main body 1 is stable and does not shake during the operation.
[0049] After the fishing hook 6 is clamped and the fishing line is threaded, the user holds the grip 5 and pulls the main body 1 outward along its axis. The applied axial force first overcomes the biasing force of the elastic element 4 on the back of the ball 53. The ball 53 is squeezed by the groove wall of the first circumferential groove 121 and retracts radially outward. The ball of the ball 53 exits the first circumferential groove 121, and the main body 1 can begin to move axially. As the main body 1 continues to be pulled out, the protrusion 13 gradually disengages from the limiting groove 52, and the circumferential constraint of the limiting groove 52 on the protrusion 13 is released. When the main body 1 is pulled out until the ball 53 is aligned with the second circumferential groove 122 on the roller 12, the ball of the ball 53 automatically engages in the second circumferential groove 122 under the pushing force of the elastic element 4. The ball 53 and the groove wall of the second circumferential groove 122 re-form a locking fit, and at the same time, a perceptible feeling of being in place is generated, indicating to the user that the main body 1 has reached the rotatable axial position. At this point, the protrusion 13 has completely disengaged from the limiting groove 52, and the main body 1 and the gripper 5 are circumferentially free. The ball 53 is inserted into the second circumferential groove 122, which provides axial positioning for the main body 1 and prevents the main body 1 from axially moving during the winding rotation.
[0050] The user then rubs the protruding roller 12 from the rolling hole 51 with their fingertips. The roller 12 rotates within the rolling hole 51, carrying the main body 1, the front clamping piece 2, and the clamped fishhook 6 together around the axis. The fishing line winds around the hook shank one circle at a time. Throughout the rotation, the ball 53 remains within the second circumferential groove 122, the main body 1 is stably limited in the axial direction, and the rotation trajectory of the fishhook 6 is smooth without axial deviation.
[0051] After winding the line, the user stops rubbing the roller 12 and pushes the main body 1 axially back into the grip 5. The pushing force causes the ball 53 to be squeezed out of the second circumferential groove 122 again, and the main body 1 returns to its axial position until the protrusion 13 re-engages into the limiting groove 52. At the same time, the ball 53 is aligned again and engaged in the first circumferential groove 121. At this point, the main body 1 and the grip 5 regain circumferential locking and axial positioning, and the entire tool returns to a rigid, integrated, and stable state, allowing the user to reliably tighten the line. Finally, the connecting piece 3 is twisted in the opposite direction, and the elastic piece 4 springs open the upper plate 21, allowing the tied fishhook 6 to be removed from the placement space 221.
[0052] In some embodiments, anti-slip texture 123 is provided on the outer surface of the roller 12 (e.g., ...). Figure 3 (As shown).
[0053] Specifically, the outer surface of the roller 12 is provided with anti-slip texture 123. The anti-slip texture 123 is a raised texture formed on the surface of the roller 12. The texture can be fine stripes, cross-hatching, or dot-matrix raised particles arranged along the axial direction. Its function is to increase the coefficient of friction between the surface of the roller 12 and the user's fingertips. Before the line-tying operation begins, the user first fixes the fishhook 6 in the placement space 221 using the clamp 2, and the fishhook 6 is completely locked. Then the user passes the fishing line through the hook eye and pulls out the desired line length. One hand holds the fishing line to maintain tension, and the other hand holds the grip 5, pressing the pad of the thumb or index finger on the part of the roller 12 that protrudes from the rolling hole 51. Because the outer surface of the roller 12 is covered with anti-slip texture 123, the skin of the fingertip and the raised surface of the texture form multiple areas of close contact, significantly increasing the friction and making it difficult for the fingertip to slip relative to the roller 12. When the user rubs forward or backward with their fingertips, the rubbing force is efficiently transmitted to the roller 12 through the anti-slip texture 123. The roller 12 rotates smoothly within the rolling hole 51, driving the main body 1, along with the clamping member 2 and the clamped fishhook 6, to rotate around the axis. With each rubbing motion, the fishhook 6 rotates through the corresponding angle, and the fishing line wraps around the hook shank once. The anti-slip texture 123 makes the rubbing motion precise and controllable. Even when the fingers are slightly sweaty or the fishing line tension fluctuates, the fingertips can still stably drive the roller 12 without slipping. When the fishing line has been wound to the preset number of turns, the user stops rubbing. The uneven surface of the anti-slip texture 123 allows the fingers to immediately stop the inertial rotation of the roller 12, ensuring accurate number of turns. Finally, the user passes the line end through the loop formed by the winding and tightens it. By twisting the connector 3 in the opposite direction, the clamping force is released, and the elastic member 4 pops open the upper plate 21, allowing the tied fishhook 6 to be removed from the placement space 221.
[0054] In some embodiments, the main body 1 includes: an upper shell 14 and a lower shell 15 (e.g., Figure 4 As shown, the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 are detachably connected, and the clamping member 2 is disposed between the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15.
[0055] Specifically, the main body 1 comprises two structural components: an upper shell 14 and a lower shell 15. The upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 are assembled using a detachable connection. The clamping member 2 is stably positioned within the internal space formed by the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15. During installation, the clamping member 2 is first placed stably in the preset installation position on the lower shell 15, so that the clamping member 2 fits snugly against the inner wall of the lower shell 15, completing the initial fixation of the clamping member 2 on the lower shell 15. Then, the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 are precisely aligned and tightly joined together using a detachable connection. At this point, the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 are completely aligned, and the clamping member 2 is securely confined between the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15. The upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 provide all-around restraint for the clamping member 2 from both the top and bottom, preventing displacement or loosening of the clamping member 2 during subsequent use. When it is necessary to inspect, clean or replace parts inside the device, the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 can be separated to directly access and remove the clamping member 2 between the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15. After completing the relevant operations, the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 can be detachably connected again so that the clamping member 2 is back in the predetermined position between the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15, ensuring that the device can be put into normal use.
