Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fishing gear and equipment technology, specifically to an anti-jamming lead sinker. Background Technology
[0002] Fishing is a common recreational hobby, and even during the closed season, single-person fishing with a single hook is still permitted.
[0003] To facilitate the rapid sinking of the hook, a sinker is usually attached to the fishing line at the bottom of the hook. The sinker increases the sinking speed of the hook. Since the weight of the sinker is much greater than the weight of the hook and fishing line, it generates a vertical downward pull on the fishing line. In particular, some sea anglers need to use sinkers to increase the casting distance and keep the hook as close to the seabed as possible.
[0004] When fishing, the riverbed inevitably contains many rocks that can easily trap the sinker. Existing technology addresses this by including a patent application (CN213187745U) titled "Anti-Snagging Sinker," which increases the sinker's surface area by adding small plastic or stainless steel claws to the outside, thus reducing the probability of it getting stuck in crevices. However, this increased surface area results in more resistance when the hook sinks and lifts, causing more interference and negatively impacting the fishing experience. This is especially true for sea fishing, where the seabed is often covered with oyster shells and sand, which can still easily trap the sinker. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an anti-jamming sinker, which can reduce the probability of the sinker shell getting stuck by adding a pull rod and elastic rope, and better meet the needs of fishing.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an anti-jamming lead sinker, comprising a sinker housing, the sinker housing being hollow and equipped with a counterweight lead block; a sealing cover is provided at the upper and lower parts of the sinker body, and a through hole is provided in the middle of the sealing cover; a tension rope passes through from the top of the sealing cover to the bottom of the sinker housing, and the end of the tension rope is knotted and fixed; an anti-jamming device is provided on the outside of the sinker housing, the anti-jamming device comprising an elastic rope and a pull rod, the elastic rope being located at the top of the sealing cover and fixedly connected to the tension rope; the top of the elastic rope is fixedly connected to the pull rod, and the bottom of the sinker housing is movably sleeved on the pull rod through a connector, and the end of the pull rod is bent with a limit ring.
[0007] Preferably, the upper part of the pull rod is bent to create a clearance space.
[0008] Preferably, the connector is a figure-eight connector, with one end of the figure-eight connector fixedly connected to the tension rope and the other end sleeved and slidably connected to the pull rod.
[0009] Preferably, a limiting ball is fixed to the lower part of the figure-eight connector, and the limiting ball is knotted and fixed to the tensioning rope.
[0010] Preferably, the sealing cap is a spherical sealing cap.
[0011] Preferably, the lead weight housing is cylindrical.
[0012] The beneficial technical effects achieved by this utility model after adopting the above technical solution are as follows:
[0013] 1. The inclusion of a counterweight within the sinker housing enables basic sinker functions, ensuring rapid hook descent and increasing casting distance, thus meeting basic fishing needs. The sinker housing features an anti-jamming device consisting of an elastic rope and a lever. The elastic rope is located at the top of the sealed cover and is fixedly connected to a tension rope; one end of the lever is fixedly connected to the top of the elastic rope, and the other end is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sinker housing. When the sinker housing becomes stuck, it can be pulled directly, causing an unbalanced pulling force that changes its angle, allowing it to free itself and reducing the probability of jamming to some extent.
[0014] 2. Because the lever is inelastic, when the elastic rope fails to free the fish, the rope continues to pull, and the tension is transmitted through the lever to the bottom of the sinker shell, forcing the sinker shell to flip at a certain angle, thus freeing it. In this process, without affecting the normal use of the hook, adding a lever satisfies the need for timely freeing of the sinker shell. The modifications are minor, the cost is low, and it is suitable for most fishing environments. Attached Figure Description

[0023] 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 for explaining the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0024] See Figures 1-5 This utility model provides an anti-jamming lead sinker, including a lead sinker housing 1, which is hollow and has a counterweight lead block 11. The lead sinker housing 1 is provided with a sealing cover, which includes an upper sealing cover and a lower sealing cover, and both sealing covers have a through hole in the middle. A tension rope 12 passes through from the upper end of the upper sealing cover to the lower end of the lower sealing cover, and the end of the tension rope 12 is knotted and fixed to achieve the sealing of the counterweight lead block 11 inside. During assembly, if it is a counterweight lead block 11, it can be placed directly inside the lead sinker housing 1 as needed. In some cases, the counterweight lead block 11 inside the lead sinker housing 1 is integrally formed.
[0025] Depending on the fishing environment, the hook can be positioned at the top or bottom of the sinker housing 1. For long-distance sea fishing, a connector is typically used to connect the hook to the limiting ring at the bottom of the rod 22. The limiting ball 24 can be replaced by a line fastener; its main purpose is to increase the contact area and ensure connection stability. The tension line 12 can be replaced with fishing line. The lead weight 11 is generally purchased; however, in actual production, lead can be directly poured into the sinker housing 1 and sealed to prevent poisoning.
[0026] The external casing 1 of the lead weight is equipped with an anti-jamming device 2, which includes an elastic cord 21 and a pull rod 22. The elastic cord 21 is located on top of the sealing cover and is fixedly connected to the tension cord 12. The top of the elastic cord 21 is fixedly connected to the pull rod 22, and the bottom of the lead weight casing 1 is movably sleeved onto the pull rod 22 via a connector. The end of the pull rod 22 is bent with a limit ring. See also Figure 5The elastic rope 21 is generally made of highly elastic natural rubber; rubber bands can be purchased directly. When the spherical sealing cap 13 at the end of the sinker housing 1 is unfortunately blocked during dragging, continuing to drag the elastic rope 21 provides greater tension to the sinker housing 1, aiding in its escape. If it becomes stuck, continue dragging the fishing line. At this time, the fishing line and elastic rope 21 generate a pulling force on the bottom of the sinker housing 1 through the pull rod 22, causing the sinker housing 1 to rotate a certain angle, allowing for quick escape. The pull rod 22 is rigid, non-extendable, and generally made of stainless steel or aluminum alloy. See also Figure 5 In the direction of the middle arrow, during the movement of the lead weight shell 1, the upper spherical sealing cover 13 is basically blocked or stuck.
[0027] The upper part of the pull rod 22 of this invention is bent into a clearance space. The upper part of the pull rod 22 is used to connect the elastic rope 21, and the clearance space is designed to accommodate lead weight housings 1 of various diameters.
[0028] In this invention, the tension rope 12 at the bottom of the pull rod 22 is fitted with a figure-eight connector 23. The retaining ring at the other end of the figure-eight connector 23 is connected to the pull rod 22. A limiting ring is bent at the end of the pull rod 22. The figure-eight connector 23 is a commonly used connecting and fixing component in fishing, which does not interfere with rotation or line threading. The limiting ring is part of the pull rod 22; its end is bent to increase the contact area, prevent disengagement, and ensure safety.
[0029] The sealing cap of this utility model is a spherical sealing cap 13. The spherical sealing cap 13 is spherical with almost no sharp edges, making it less likely to get stuck. During dragging, the spherical sealing cap 13 usually contacts the stone first, and its smooth, rounded spherical surface makes it easier to avoid sharp objects.
[0030] The bottom of the tension rope 12 of this invention is also fixed with a limiting ball 24. The limiting ball 24 is used to increase the contact area and is a common component, especially at the end of the fishing line, for connection and fixation.
[0031] The lead weight housing 1 of this invention is cylindrical. While this invention uses a cylindrical lead weight housing 1, other shapes are also possible. The cylindrical housing 1 has the same diameter at both the top and bottom, making installation convenient and reducing the likelihood of it getting stuck. It also allows for smoother movement and less resistance.
[0032] This invention offers two methods for escaping from a stuck fishing line. The ultimate goal of both methods is to detach the sinker housing 1 without cutting the fishing line. If the sinker housing 1 is not stuck, the fish hook will generally not get stuck. However, due to the complex fishing environment, this invention can only increase the probability of successful escaping from a stuck fishing line, and cannot guarantee 100% detachment.
[0033] Of course, there may be other embodiments of this utility model. Without departing from the spirit and essence of this utility model, those skilled in the art can make various corresponding changes and modifications based on this utility model, but these corresponding changes and modifications should all fall within the protection scope of the appended claims of this utility model.
