Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fishing gear accessories technology, and in particular to a novel sub-line switching component. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, a common fishing setup consists of three main parts: the leader line, the main line, and the hook. The main line, acting as a bridge between the fishing rod and the underwater world, is designed to be directly attached to the end of the rod. The leader line connects to the main line at the end furthest from the rod, forming an extended link; typically, the other end of the leader line is tied with a hook.

[0003] In terms of length design, the main line is intentionally made to be longer than the leader line. This design not only makes it easier for the main line to go deeper into the water and cover a wider fishing area, but also provides enough hanging space for the leader line and the hook at its end, avoiding direct tangling with the main line. The main function of the leader line is to securely hang the hook below the main line, ensuring that the hook can swing freely in the water, increasing the flexibility and success rate of fishing.

[0004] Currently, anglers typically use multiple hooks of different sizes to cope with different fishing conditions. In practice, existing technology usually uses traditional swivels to connect and fix the hooks to the main line. When it is necessary to change to a thinner or thicker hook, anglers can only cut the hook or spend a lot of time untangling it, which is quite inconvenient. Therefore, we propose a new type of hook switching component. Utility Model Content

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] Reference Figure 1-4 A novel sub-line switching assembly includes a sub-connector 1 and a female connector 2. One end of the sub-connector 1 is slidably connected to the female connector 2. Both the sub-connector 1 and the female connector 2 have connecting ears 3 fixed at their ends that are far apart from each other. One connecting ear 3 is connected to the sub-line, and the other connecting ear 3 is connected to the busbar. A mating mechanism is assembled between the sub-connector 1 and the female connector 2 for connecting the sub-connector 1 and the female connector 2.

[0025] The mating mechanism includes a collar 4, a circumferential surface 5, an extension 6, a protrusion 7, and auxiliary components. The collar 4 is slidably connected to the outer side of the female connector 2. The circumferential surface 5 is provided on the outer side of the female connector 2 near the collar 4. One end of the female connector 2 is fixed with an extension 6. The inner side of the extension 6 is slidably connected to the male connector 1. The protrusion 7 is integrally fixed on the inner side of the collar 4. The protrusion 7 is slidably connected to the extension 6. An auxiliary component is assembled between the male connector 1, the female connector 2, and the collar 4. The outer side of the collar 4 is provided with anti-slip texture for easy gripping by the user.

[0026] The auxiliary components include a compression spring 8, a notch 9, a conical movable groove 10, a movable ball 11, an inclined protrusion 12, and an annular recess 13. The compression spring 8 is sleeved on the outer side of the extension 6. One end of the compression spring 8 is fixed to the annular cut surface 5, and the other end of the compression spring 8 is fixed to the protrusion 7. A notch 9 is provided at one end of the protrusion 7. Multiple conical movable grooves 10 are evenly distributed on the outer side of the extension 6. Movable balls 11 are slidably connected to the inner side of each conical movable groove 10. The movable balls 11 are all positioned corresponding to the notches 9. An annular recess 13 is provided on the outer side of the sub-connector 1. An inclined protrusion 12 is integrally fixed on the outer side of the sub-connector 1 and near the annular recess 13. The inclined protrusion 12 is slidably connected to the inner side of the extension 6. The annular recess 13 is transitionally fitted with the movable ball 11. An inclined surface is provided on one side of the inclined protrusion 12 to facilitate the movement of the movable ball 11 when it comes into contact with it.

[0027] The diameter of the opening at one end of the conical movable groove 10 is smaller than the diameter of the movable ball 11, and the diameter of the opening at the other end of the conical movable groove 10 is larger than the diameter of the movable ball 11. By setting the conical movable groove 10, the movable ball 11 cannot fall into the inner side of the extension 6 through the conical movable groove 10, and at the same time, the movable ball 11 can move in the opening at the other end of the conical movable groove 10.

[0028] Example 2

[0029] Further optimizations to Example 1, specifically, such as... Figure 2-3 As shown, an annular groove 14 is provided on the outer side of the extension 6 away from the female connector 2. A rubber ring 15 is embedded in the inner side of the annular groove 14. The rubber ring 15 can limit the displacement of the collar 4 and prevent the collar 4 from detaching from one end of the extension 6.

[0030] In summary:

[0031] This utility model addresses the technical problem of: Currently, anglers typically use multiple hooks of different specifications to cope with different fishing conditions. Existing technology generally uses traditional swivels to connect and fix the hooks to the main line. When changing to a thinner or thicker hook, anglers can only cut the hook or spend a lot of time untangling it, which is inconvenient. The present invention adopts the technical solutions described in the above embodiments. Furthermore, the implementation process of the above technical solutions is as follows:

[0032] When it is necessary to connect the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, first push the collar 4 so that the collar 4 compresses the spring 8 through the protrusion 7, so that the protrusion 7 no longer covers the conical movable groove 10. At this time, the position of the notch 9 corresponds to the position of the conical movable groove 10, so the movable ball 11 will not fall out. Then insert one end of the male connector 1 into the extension 6 and the female connector 2. When the inclined protrusion 12 contacts the movable ball 11, the inclined protrusion 12 pushes the movable ball 11 to move along the inner side of the conical movable groove 10 in a direction away from the center of the extension 6 until the position of the annular recess 13 corresponds to the position of the movable ball 11. Finally, release the collar 4. At this time, the elastic force generated by the spring 8 pushes the collar 4 and the protrusion 7 to reset until the protrusion 7 pushes the movable ball 11 to move and is inside the annular recess 13. The protrusion 7 covers the conical movable groove 10 again, and the connection between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 is completed.

[0033] With the above-mentioned settings, this application will certainly solve the above-mentioned technical problems, and at the same time achieve the following technical effects:

[0034] This invention, through its structural design, enables the device to quickly connect or disconnect the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, effectively solving the problem of inconvenient leader line replacement in traditional fishing. This not only improves fishing efficiency but also promotes the rational use of resources, saving leader line and time.
