Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fishing reel technology, specifically to a fishing reel with high user comfort. Background Technology
[0002] In existing fishing reel designs, anglers typically need to hold the reel's decorative plate and press a specific area with their thumb when lure fishing to assist in controlling the reel's line release and retrieval, ensuring stable control during casting, reeling, and playing the fish. However, most commercially available fishing reels use hard plastic or metal for the thumb-pressing area. While this design may not have noticeable effects in short-term use, during extended fishing sessions, the continuous pressing and force exerted by the thumb can cause significant pressure on the fingers, leading to localized fatigue and even discomfort.
[0003] Furthermore, the surfaces of hard plastic or metal are typically smooth and lack effective anti-slip design. In actual fishing, especially with wet hands, sweat, or in rainy conditions, the thumb pressing area may slip due to insufficient friction, affecting the angler's precision and stability in controlling the fishing reel. This can even lead to deviations during casting or reeling, impacting fishing results. Particularly when performing precise maneuvers, such as adjusting line control, fine-tuning reel speed, or fighting a fish, the lack of anti-slip design on the thumb pressing area can easily cause unnecessary mistakes, reducing the success rate of fishing.

The decorative piece 40 is installed on the first connecting part 13. The decorative piece 40 has a recessed mounting groove 41 on both the side near the first fishing reel body 11 and the side near the second fishing reel body 10. A soft rubber sheet 42 is detachably installed on the mounting groove 41. After installation, the soft rubber sheet 42 is flush with the decorative piece 40. The side of the soft rubber sheet 42 away from the mounting groove 41 is provided with anti-slip texture 43, and the side of the soft rubber sheet 42 away from the mounting groove 41 is provided with an anti-ultraviolet layer, a corrosion-resistant layer, and a wear-resistant layer.
[0023] Preferably, the anti-slip texture 43 is a downwardly recessed perforated mesh structure. The recessed perforations effectively increase the contact area and enhance friction, allowing the user's thumb to firmly adhere to the surface of the soft rubber sheet 42 even with wet hands, sweat, or in rainy conditions, preventing slippage that could affect operational accuracy. Furthermore, the perforated mesh structure also provides a cushioning effect during pressing, further improving user comfort and reducing hand fatigue from prolonged use.
[0024] Preferably, the handle 30 includes a rocker arm 31 and handles 32 symmetrically arranged at both ends of the rocker arm 31. Further, handle 32 grooves are formed on both opposite horizontal surfaces of the handles 32, and handle soft rubber sheets 33 are detachably mounted on the handle 32 grooves. The handle soft rubber sheets 33 are provided with anti-slip textures 43. The handle soft rubber sheets 33 effectively improve grip comfort and fit, reducing hand fatigue caused by prolonged operation. Simultaneously, the anti-slip textures 43 on the surface of the handle soft rubber sheets 33 enhance friction, maintaining good grip even in humid, sweaty, or rainy conditions, preventing slippage and affecting control precision. In addition, the handle soft rubber sheets 33 are detachable, allowing users to replace them with soft rubber sheets 42 of different materials or patterns as needed. This not only facilitates maintenance but also allows for customization of the grip experience according to personal preferences, further enhancing the practicality and personalization of the fishing reel. It should be noted that the outer side of the handle soft rubber sheets 33 is also provided with an anti-UV layer, a corrosion-resistant layer, and a wear-resistant layer.
[0025] Preferably, the decorative piece 40 has a threaded mounting hole 44 corresponding to the mounting groove 41, and the soft rubber sheet 42 has an opening corresponding to the threaded mounting hole 44. When the soft rubber sheet 42 is installed in the mounting groove 41, a mounting screw is provided at the opening and the threaded mounting hole 44. Furthermore, a base adhesive is provided at the bottom of the soft rubber sheet 42. The soft rubber sheet 42 is fixed by the mounting screw, effectively enhancing its stability and preventing loosening or detachment due to prolonged use or external force. Compared to traditional individual adhesive fixing methods, screw fixing is not only more reliable but also ensures that the soft rubber sheet 42 remains stable during high-intensity fishing activities such as vigorous casting and rapid reeling, without affecting control precision. Simultaneously, the base adhesive at the bottom of the soft rubber sheet 42 makes it fit more tightly with the mounting groove 41, effectively reducing gaps and loosening caused by long-term use and improving overall durability. In addition, the base layer can also play a certain role in waterproofing and dustproofing, preventing moisture or stains from seeping into the installation groove 41, reducing maintenance difficulty, extending the service life of the soft film 42, thereby further improving the product's durability and user experience.
[0026] As another installation method for the flexible rubber sheet 42, the decorative piece 40 has multiple cylindrical limiting holes corresponding to the mounting groove 41. Each cylindrical limiting hole has a recessed annular groove on its sidewall. The bottom of the flexible rubber sheet 42 has a cylindrical limiting post corresponding to the cylindrical limiting hole, and a rubber ring is provided on the side of the cylindrical limiting hole. When the cylindrical limiting post is inserted into the cylindrical limiting hole, the rubber ring expands and connects to the annular groove. Furthermore, the bottom of the flexible rubber sheet 42 has a base adhesive. When the cylindrical limiting post on the flexible rubber sheet 42 is inserted into the limiting hole, the rubber ring expands and firmly embeds into the annular groove, achieving stable fixation of the flexible rubber sheet 42. Compared to other traditional fixing methods, this installation method offers greater ease of installation and removal. Users can install and replace the flexible rubber sheet 42 without tools through simple insertion and removal operations, greatly improving maintenance efficiency. Furthermore, this structure utilizes the elastic deformation characteristics of the rubber ring to achieve a tighter fit, effectively reducing the possibility of the soft rubber sheet 42 loosening, shifting, or falling off due to long-term use or external forces, thus improving durability and service life. Further, a base layer of adhesive is added to the bottom of the soft rubber sheet 42, allowing it to adhere more tightly to the decorative piece 40 and enhancing the fixing effect. The base layer also serves to waterproof and dustproof, effectively preventing moisture, stains, or dust from entering the mounting holes, reducing cleaning and maintenance difficulty, ensuring the fishing reel maintains stable performance in various fishing environments, and ensuring good fixing even after prolonged use. It also facilitates easier disassembly and installation when the soft rubber sheet 42 needs to be replaced, improving the fishing reel's flexibility and durability, and providing anglers with a superior handling experience.
[0027] It should be noted that the handle soft rubber sheet 33 on the handle 30 is also fixed in the same way as the soft rubber sheet 42 on the decorative piece 40, either by installing screws in conjunction with the base adhesive or by setting a cylindrical limiting post supplemented by a rubber ring in conjunction with the base adhesive.
[0028] Preferably, the decorative piece 40 is fixed to the fishing reel body 10 by multiple bolts. Bolting provides greater stability and durability, ensuring that the decorative piece 40 will not loosen or fall off due to external impact, vibration, or environmental changes during long-term use.
[0029] Preferably, the fishing reel body 10 further includes a second connecting part 14, which is connected between the first fishing reel body 11 and the second fishing reel body 12, and is disposed opposite to the first connecting part 13.

[0031] It should also be noted that when fishing, the thumb presses on the soft rubber sheet 42 near the main body 11 of the first fishing reel. The soft rubber sheet 42 near the main body 12 of the second fishing reel serves a symmetrical function with the soft rubber sheet 42 at the top, making the fishing reel more aesthetically pleasing and also increasing friction when gripping it.
[0032] It should also be noted that the flexible film 42 of this application can also be glued to the mounting groove 41, or it can be injection molded into the mounting groove 41. Both methods can be used to fix the flexible film 42 to the mounting groove 41.
[0033] This invention provides a fishing reel with enhanced user comfort. By adding a mounting groove 41 to the decorative piece 40 on the reel body 10, and detachably mounting a soft rubber sheet 42 thereon, it effectively improves the user experience of the thumb-pressing area 45 of traditional fishing reels. The soft rubber sheet 42 is made of flexible material, which, compared to traditional hard plastic or metal, effectively disperses the pressure on the fingers during operation, reducing fatigue and discomfort caused by prolonged force application, making fishing more comfortable for anglers. Simultaneously, the surface of the soft rubber sheet 42 has anti-slip texture 43. Its special texture design provides extra friction in wet, sweaty, or rainy conditions, preventing the thumb from slipping during casting or reeling, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of control, especially during precise line control or playing a fish. Furthermore, the surface of the soft rubber sheet 42 is also equipped with an anti-UV layer, a corrosion-resistant layer, and a wear-resistant layer, ensuring its good performance even under long-term exposure to complex environments such as sunlight, humidity, and seawater, and even when used by people with sweaty thumbs. The soft rubber sheet 42 is not prone to aging, fading, or damage, greatly improving the durability and lifespan of the fishing reel. This design features a detachable installation method, allowing users to replace the soft rubber sheet 42 with different materials or patterns as needed. It also allows for quick replacement when the soft rubber sheet 42 ages or wears, preventing the entire fishing reel from being affected by damage to a single component, thus improving the convenience and economy of maintenance. In addition, the soft rubber sheet 42 is flush with the decorative piece 40 after installation, ensuring the overall appearance of the fishing reel and making it more aesthetically pleasing. It can also be personalized according to user needs to meet different preferences. In summary, this utility model, by optimizing the design of the thumb-pressing area of the fishing reel, improves operating comfort, anti-slip properties, durability, and ease of maintenance while also considering aesthetics and personalization needs, resulting in superior overall performance of the fishing reel and providing a better user experience for fishing enthusiasts.
[0034] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely some preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present utility model. Therefore, any equivalent changes made in accordance with the scope of the present utility model patent application shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
