Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to fishing tackle field especially relates to a kind of connecting support capable of preventing string hook subline twist and wind. BACKGROUND

[0002] String hook is the line group that multiple fishing hooks are tied to the same main line to form a string, so it is also called grape hook, centipede hook etc..In string hook line group, the number of fishing hooks is generally 3-5 or more, and each fishing hook is connected together with main line by a subline (also known as brain line).In the traditional string hook structure, each subline and main line are directly connected together by binding.However, due to the light and soft texture of the subline, under the dragging action of the fishing hook, it is easy to entangle and knot with the main line.For the problem of mutual entanglement of subline and main line, the traditional method is to put a hose on the subline to reduce the swinging amplitude of the subline and reduce its softness, thereby avoiding the occurrence of entanglement problem.In addition, the anti-entanglement function can also be achieved by adding a support at the connection between the subline and the main line, such as the technical solutions disclosed in the following Chinese patents.

[0003] Chinese Utility Model Patent Specification (Publication No. CN215873157U) discloses an environmentally friendly string hook line group for sea fishing, wherein the main line 6 is provided with a subline group, each group is composed of a bead 4, a balance 2, a subline 3 and a fishing hook 5, wherein the balance is a Y-shaped hollow plastic tube, the subline 3 is provided with a fishing hook 5 at one end, and the other end passes through the inside of the balance 2 and is connected with the main line 6.In this structure, the balance acts as a support for the subline, which can effectively prevent the subline from entangling and knotting with the main line.

[0004] Chinese Utility Model Patent Specification (Publication No. CN202664045U) discloses a new type of fishing string hook, which comprises a main line, a subline and a fishing hook, the fishing hook is connected to one end of the subline, the other end of the subline is connected with a V-shaped rotatable frame, and the V-shaped rotatable frame is movably connected with the main line.In this structure, the V-shaped rotatable frame can rotate 360 degrees around the main line, which can effectively prevent the main line from entangling with the subline.

[0005] While the existing solutions described above can address the issues of tangling and knotting between the leader and main line to some extent, they cannot effectively solve the problems of curling and tangling inherent in the leader itself. For example, the end of the leader connecting to the main line is typically a fixed knot, preventing effective movement and rotation. When the other end of the leader is subjected to torsional force, it will curl in the middle, or twist and become twisted into a spiral shape, much like wringing out a towel. Excessive torsional or pulling force can even lead to permanent deformation or breakage of the leader. This problem is exacerbated by the torsional and rotational forces generated when a fish is hooked and struggling, severely impacting the lifespan of the leader and causing premature wear and tear on fishing tackle accessories, thus increasing costs.

[0006] In view of this, the inventor, drawing on years of experience in the field of fishing tackle, designed and optimized the product's structure, and after numerous trials and improvements, created this invention. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the shortcomings and deficiencies of the existing technology, this utility model provides a connecting bracket to prevent the hook line from twisting and tangling. This connecting bracket allows the hook line to rotate smoothly on it, thereby greatly reducing the curling and tangling problems caused by the hook line being affected by torsional forces.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a connecting bracket for preventing the twisting and tangling of the hooked sub-line, comprising a left support arm, a right support arm metal sleeve, and a metal rod. The lower ends of the left and right support arms are connected by hollow tubes, and their upper ends are provided with concentric left and right wire-passing holes for the main line to pass through simultaneously. The metal sleeve is fixed inside the hole of the hollow tube. The metal rod passes through the hollow tube and the metal sleeve and rotates freely in an axial manner. The top end of the metal rod is provided with a limiting structure that mutually constrains the hole of the metal sleeve, and its bottom end forms a wire-hanging structure for connecting the sub-line.

[0009] This utility model further provides a connecting bracket to prevent the hook line from twisting and tangling. Its left support arm, right support arm and hollow tube are integrally molded from rubber or plastic materials, while the metal sleeve and metal rod are made of iron or stainless steel.

[0010] This utility model further provides a connecting bracket to prevent the hook line from twisting and tangling. The upper end of its hanging structure is provided with a curved section. The curved section cooperates with the limiting structure on the metal rod to form a limiting area for restricting the longitudinal movement range of the metal rod.

[0011] Compared to existing technologies, the connecting bracket of this invention uses a fork-shaped structure composed of left and right support arms and a hollow tube as the supporting body for connecting with the leader line. The main line can pass through the left and right line holes set in the left and right support arms simultaneously, so that the connecting bracket forms two fixed support points on the main line and maintains a specific angle. In this way, the axial swing of the connecting bracket on the main line is effectively avoided, thereby preventing the leader line from getting tangled and knotted with the main line, greatly improving the ease of operation during fishing. In terms of internal structure, a metal sleeve and a metal rod are set in the tube hole of the hollow tube. Utilizing the low coefficient of friction of metal, the metal rod can not only rotate freely and smoothly axially within the metal sleeve, but also, as a key component for connecting the leader line, effectively reduce the torsional force on the leader line, preventing the leader line from curling and tangling, thereby increasing the life of the leader line during use and reducing the cost increase caused by frequent leader line replacement. In addition, the smooth metal surface between the metal sleeve and the metal rod reduces wear caused by friction, further enhancing the durability of the connecting bracket and providing anglers with a more reliable and durable guarantee for use.

[0015] To make the invention objective, technical solution and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0016] like Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, this embodiment is a connecting bracket for preventing the hook line from twisting and tangling. The connecting bracket includes a fork-shaped support body, which mainly consists of a left support arm 1, a right support arm 2, and a hollow tube 3. The bottom ends of the left and right support arms are connected as a whole by the hollow tube. At the upper ends of the left and right support arms, circular fixing parts 9 and 10 are formed respectively. These two circular fixing parts are respectively provided with a concentric left threading hole 11 and a right threading hole 12 for the main line to pass through. When the main line passes through these two threading holes in sequence, the fork-shaped support body can be fixedly hung on the main line, and the fork-shaped support body forms a 90-degree angle with the main line. Furthermore, the shape of the fork-shaped support body can be designed as U-shaped or V-shaped.

[0017] The hollow tube 3 is further equipped with a metal sleeve 4 and a metal rod 6. The metal sleeve is made of iron and is installed inside the bore of the hollow tube. During installation, the metal sleeve is inserted into the bore from the top opening of the hollow tube and fixed in the bore with an interference fit. The metal rod is also made of iron. During installation, the metal rod 6 passes through the hollow tube 3 and the metal sleeve 4, with a rotatable clearance between them, allowing the metal rod to rotate freely and smoothly axially within the hollow tube. The cooperation between the metal sleeve and the metal rod results in a relatively low coefficient of friction. When the metal rod rotates within the metal sleeve, the friction between them is small, providing a good foundation for smooth rotation. Moreover, the metal material can withstand a certain amount of pressure and wear without easily deforming or being damaged. During long-term rotation, the shape and surface condition of the metal sleeve and the metal rod remain relatively stable and will not become rough or uneven due to frequent friction, thus ensuring a relatively smooth contact surface during rotation and contributing to maintaining smooth rotation. This advantage is particularly pronounced when using metal materials such as iron or stainless steel. Furthermore, the top of the metal rod 6 features a limiting structure, shaped like a nail head 5, with a width greater than the opening of the metal sleeve. The nail head can take various shapes, commonly including flat, round, and semi-circular heads. It restrains the metal sleeve 4's opening, providing excellent structural stability and preventing the metal rod from being pulled out of the hollow tube, thus preventing the fish from escaping. The bottom of the metal rod forms a hook structure for connecting the leader line. This hook structure is a bent hook 7, allowing the leader line to be directly hooked onto it via its loop. A rubber sleeve is then used to seal the hook opening, quickly attaching the leader line to the metal rod. Additionally, the hook structure can also take the form of a ring, a ring with a break, a ring buckle, or a ring groove. When the sub-line is connected to the metal rod 6, even when subjected to torsional force, the sub-line can effectively dissipate the torsional force by rotating the metal rod, thereby avoiding its own curling and tangling. This greatly improves the lifespan of the sub-line during use and reduces the cost increase caused by frequent replacement of the sub-line.

[0018] Furthermore, the contact surfaces of the metal sleeve 4 and the metal rod 6 are both polished, resulting in an extremely smooth surface. This significantly reduces the coefficient of friction between them, allowing the metal rod to rotate more smoothly and effectively dissipate torsional forces.

[0019] In another embodiment, the left support arm 1, right support arm 2, and hollow tube 3 of the fork-shaped support are integrally molded from plastic material, while the metal sleeve 4 and metal rod 6 are made of stainless steel. In this embodiment, the fork-shaped support utilizes an integral molding process with plastic material, avoiding the need to manufacture multiple parts separately and then assemble them, thus reducing the complexity of the production process and labor costs. Furthermore, the use of stainless steel for the metal sleeve and metal rod not only provides superior rotational efficiency, but stainless steel also possesses high strength and hardness, enabling it to withstand certain pressure and external forces without easily deforming. Simultaneously, it has better wear resistance and is less prone to rust, resulting in superior durability.

[0020] The aforementioned plastic and rubber materials, as well as stainless steel and iron materials, can be used interchangeably and combined.

[0021] The upper end of the hook 7 is provided with a curved section 8, which can cooperate with the limiting structure on the metal rod to form a limiting area for restricting the longitudinal movement range of the metal rod. In addition, the curved section can also prevent the hook from directly colliding with the hollow tube and deforming.

[0022] Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
