Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the technical field of fishing reel equipment, and more specifically, relates to a lure reel with electromagnetic brake. Background Technology

[0002] Lure reels are a type of horizontal reel, primarily used for lure fishing, hence the name. Compared to spinning reels, lure reels offer higher casting accuracy, are smaller, and provide easier line control. Their disadvantages include the difficulty in mastering casting and a higher risk of line tangling. Common lure reels are mainly divided into two types: magnetic brake reels and centrifugal brake reels. Magnetic brake reels are characterized by an external magnetic adjustment knob with multiple adjustable settings.

[0003] The existing lure reels mainly have the following problems: the braking system is mainly magnetic braking. When casting, the adjustment knob controls the distance between the magnet and the spool to change the braking force and achieve a smooth casting of the lure reel. This not only requires a high level of skill from the operator, but also makes it easy for novices to break the line when adjusting. In addition, the magnetic adjustment system is relatively complicated to connect and inconvenient to control. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention addresses the technical problems existing in the prior art by providing a stirring device for melting high-viscosity granular resin.

[0005] The technical solution adopted in this application is: a lure reel with electromagnetic brake, including a main frame, a spool, and a braking mechanism. The spool is rotatably disposed within the main frame. The braking mechanism includes a magnetic ring, a coil assembly, and an adjustment mechanism. The coil assembly has a coil frame and a coil, with the coil wrapped around the coil frame, which is located outside the magnetic ring. The adjustment mechanism has a potentiometer and an adjustment knob. The potentiometer has a resistive element, a fixed pin, a middle pin, and a sliding contact. The middle pin is connected to the resistive element through the sliding contact. The adjustment knob is linked to the sliding contact. The fixed pin and the middle pin are respectively connected to the two ends of the coil to form a closed circuit. The magnetic ring is fixedly disposed on the spool.

[0006] Preferably, the coil assembly has multiple sets of coil frames and coils, the number of coils being the same as the number of coil frames, and each coil frame containing one set of coils; the coil frames are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the magnetic ring, and the multiple sets of coils are connected in parallel and are all connected to the potentiometer.

[0007] Preferably, the coil assembly has four sets of coil frames and coils, and the coil frames are square in shape.

[0008] Preferably, the lure reel also includes a circuit board and a sealing cover, with the circuit board located inside the sealing cover; the potentiometer is located on the circuit board.

[0009] Preferably, a transmission mechanism is provided between the adjusting knob and the sliding contact; the transmission mechanism includes a transmission pin and a transmission hole, the transmission pin being rotatably disposed in the transmission hole; the transmission hole is disposed on the sealing cover and penetrates the sealing cover, and the transmission pin is disposed between the adjusting knob and the sliding contact.

[0010] Preferably, the transmission mechanism further includes a compression spring, which is sleeved outside the transmission pin. The inner end of the transmission pin is provided with a spring seat, and the inner end of the compression spring abuts against the spring seat and presses the spring seat tightly.

[0011] Preferably, the sealing cover is in the shape of an annular column, and the coil frame is located inside the sealing cover; the side of the coil spool is provided with a positioning groove, and both the magnetic ring and the sealing cover are located in the positioning groove. The sealing cover is fitted over the magnetic ring, and there is a gap between the sealing cover and the magnetic ring.

[0012] Preferably, the sealing cover has a cover body and a cover, the side of the cover body has a cover opening, and the cover closes to the cover opening.

[0013] Preferably, the side of the main frame is provided with a mounting groove and a spool cover, the spool cover is closed on the groove of the mounting groove, and the spool is placed in the mounting groove.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] During casting, the spool rotates to release line, causing the magnetic ring to rotate. The magnetic field lines formed by the magnetic ring rotate, and the coil, located outside the magnetic ring, cuts through the coil. The potentiometer, connected to the coil, forms a closed circuit, generating an induced current that creates resistance to the spool's rotation. The control mechanism allows for easy adjustment of the potentiometer's resistance by rotating a knob. Changing the potentiometer's resistance changes the total resistance within the closed circuit, thus altering the magnitude of the induced current and adjusting the resistance to the spool's rotation. Decreasing the potentiometer's resistance increases the induced current and thus the resistance; conversely, increasing the resistance decreases the induced current and thus the resistance. The coil is wound within a coil frame, located outside the magnetic ring. This frame allows for precise control of the coil's direction, ensuring that the magnetic field lines fully cut through the coil, generating sufficient resistance and preventing line breakage.

[0027] To make the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects to be solved by this application clearer, the following detailed description of a lure reel with electromagnetic brake provided by this application is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, this embodiment provides a drum wheel with an electromagnetic brake, including a main frame 1, a spool 2, and a braking mechanism 3. The spool 2 is rotatably disposed within the main frame 1. The braking mechanism 3 includes a magnetic ring 31, a coil assembly 32, and a control mechanism 33. The coil assembly 32 has a coil frame 321 and a coil 322. The coil 322 is surrounded within the coil frame 321, and the coil frame 321 is disposed outside the magnetic ring 31. The control mechanism 33 has a potentiometer 331 and an adjustment knob 332. The potentiometer 331 has a resistor 3311, a fixed pin 3312, an intermediate pin 3313, and a sliding contact 3314. The intermediate pin 3313 is connected to the resistor 3311 through the sliding contact 3314. The adjustment knob 332 is linked to the sliding contact 3314. The fixed pin 3312 and the intermediate pin 3313 are respectively connected to the two ends of the coil 322 to form a closed circuit. The magnetic ring 31 is fixedly disposed on the spool 2.

[0030] During casting, the spool 2 rotates to release line, causing the magnetic ring 31 to rotate. The magnetic field lines formed by the magnetic ring 31 rotate, and the coil 322, located outside the magnetic ring 31, cuts through the coil 322. The potentiometer 331 is connected to the coil 322, forming a closed circuit. An induced current is generated within this circuit, creating resistance that opposes the rotation of the spool 2. The control mechanism 33 adjusts the resistance of the potentiometer 331 connected to the circuit by rotating the adjustment knob 332, making operation convenient. Changing the resistance of the potentiometer 331 in the circuit changes the total resistance within the closed circuit, thus changing the magnitude of the induced current. The resistance that hinders the rotation of the spool 2 can be adjusted. When the resistance of the potentiometer 331 connected to the circuit decreases, the induced current increases, and the resistance that hinders the rotation of the spool 2 increases. When the resistance of the potentiometer 331 connected to the circuit increases, the induced current decreases, and the resistance that hinders the rotation of the spool 2 decreases. The coil 322 is wrapped inside the coil frame 321, which is located outside the magnetic ring 31. The direction of the coil 322 can be precisely controlled through the coil frame 321 to ensure that the magnetic field lines formed by the magnetic ring 31 fully cut the coil 322, generate sufficient resistance, and avoid wire breakage.

[0031] The coil assembly 32 has multiple sets of coil frames 321 and coils 322. The number of coils 322 is the same as the number of coil frames 321, and each coil frame 321 contains one set of coils 322. The coil frames 321 are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the magnetic ring 31. The multiple sets of coils 322 are connected in parallel and are all connected to the potentiometer 331. With multiple sets of coils 322 connected in parallel, when the magnetic ring 31 rotates, an induced current is generated in each set of coils 322, which can provide sufficient resistance to hinder the rotation of the spool 2 as needed.

[0032] In this embodiment, the coil assembly 32 is provided with 4 sets of coil frames 321 and coils 322, and the coil frames 321 are square in shape.

[0033] The drum also includes a circuit board 4 and a sealing cover 5. The circuit board 4 is located inside the sealing cover 5, which can effectively protect the circuit components and prevent short circuits caused by water ingress. The potentiometer 331 is located on the circuit board 4.

[0034] A transmission mechanism 333 is provided between the adjusting knob 332 and the sliding contact 3314; the transmission mechanism 333 includes a transmission pin 3331 and a transmission hole 3332, the transmission pin 3331 is rotatably disposed in the transmission hole 3332; the transmission hole 3332 is disposed on the sealing cover 5 and passes through the sealing cover 5, and the transmission pin 3331 is disposed between the adjusting knob 332 and the sliding contact 3314.

[0035] The transmission mechanism 333 also includes a compression spring 3333, which is sleeved on the outside of the transmission pin 3331. The inner end of the transmission pin 3331 is provided with a spring seat 33311. The inner end of the compression spring 3333 abuts against the spring seat 33311 and presses the spring seat 33311 tightly. The transmission pin 3331 is pressed inward, which can prevent rotation outside of manual adjustment.

[0036] The sealing cover 5 is in the shape of an annular column, and the coil frame 321 is located inside the sealing cover 5; the side of the spool 2 is provided with a positioning groove 21, and the magnetic ring 31 and the sealing cover 5 are both located in the positioning groove 21. The sealing cover 5 is sleeved on the outside of the magnetic ring 31, and there is a gap between the sealing cover 5 and the magnetic ring 31. The sealing cover 5 is fixed on the main frame 1.

[0037] The sealing cover 5 is provided with a cover body 51 and a cover 52. The side of the cover body 51 is provided with a cover opening 511. The cover 52 covers the cover opening 511. The coil frame 321 and the circuit board 4 can be smoothly installed into the sealing cover 5 through the cover opening 511.

[0038] The main frame 1 has a mounting groove 11 and a spool cover 12 on its side. The spool cover 12 covers the opening of the mounting groove 11, and the spool 2 is disposed in the mounting groove 11. In this embodiment, the spool cover 12 includes a support body 121, a movable cover 122, and a movable cover switch 123.

[0039] This utility model features a simple and compact structure. It achieves electronic braking of the lure reel through an electronic braking component 3, and controls the operation of the electronic braking component through a magnetic force adjustment control unit 4. This allows for adjustment and change of the magnetic field strength generated by the brake coil 33, suppressing the magnetic component 2 on the spool assembly 1. This not only ensures stable connection and simple control, enabling rapid adjustment, but also achieves intelligent control of braking force, ensuring smoother casting and preventing line breakage. Furthermore, the electronic braking component 3 is equipped with a highlighting module 32 and a Bluetooth module for intuitive display. Different display modes of the highlighting module 32 differentiate different functions, resulting in smoother casting and intelligent connection control.

[0040] Example 2

[0041] like Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a water droplet reel with an electromagnetic brake. The structure and working principle of the spool 2 and the brake mechanism 3 of the water droplet reel are basically the same as those in embodiment 1. The similarities will not be repeated. The difference is that the structure of the main frame 1 and the reel cover 12 are different. Although the amount of line wound is less, the size and drag force are more consistent. The center of gravity is lower and forward, which is more suitable for precise casting.

[0042] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that terms such as “length”, “width”, “upper”, “lower”, “front”, “rear”, “left”, “right”, “vertical”, “horizontal”, “top”, “bottom”, “inner”, and “outer” indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application.

[0043] In the description of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise expressly and specifically defined.

[0044] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
