Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fishing gear technology, specifically to a drum-type double-line-release switch structure. Background Technology
[0002] In the fishing tackle industry, the line-release function of a baitcasting reel, a common type of reel, is crucial for the fishing experience and ease of operation. Currently, there are two main line-release methods available on the market for baitcasting reels.
[0003] A common method is to use a center-mounted line release switch located at the center of the reel body. This design has certain advantages in specific scenarios, such as when anglers need to operate other fishing gear with both hands simultaneously or perform complex casting maneuvers. The center-mounted switch facilitates coordinated control with both hands, allowing for a smoother line release. However, its limitations are also apparent. Due to its central location, it is not convenient to operate quickly with one hand when releasing line, such as when responding to a sudden bite, and the delay may negatively impact fishing results.
[0004] Another method of line release involves using a side-press line release switch located on one side of the reel body. This side-press design makes it more convenient for anglers to operate with one hand, especially when holding the rod for precise maneuvers or requiring quick line releases. Simply pressing the switch with one hand completes the release, greatly improving the timeliness and flexibility of the operation. However, this design also has drawbacks. When anglers need to use both hands or employ certain casting techniques, the side-press switch may be difficult to reach, resulting in less smooth operation.
[0005] Overall, existing reel line release methods fail to effectively combine the advantages of center line release switches and side-press line release switches, and cannot meet anglers' diverse needs for convenient and flexible line release operations in various complex fishing scenarios. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0017] To provide a more intuitive and complete understanding of the technical solution of this utility model, the following non-limiting features are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:
[0018] like Figure 1 — Figure 4 As shown, the drum-type double-feeding switch structure includes a crank assembly 1 and a main frame 2. A first end cap 3 and a second end cap 4 are respectively installed at the left and right ends of the main frame 2. A spool 5 is installed inside the main frame 2. A first gear 6 is connected to the crank assembly 1. A second gear 7, meshing with the first gear 6, is installed inside the second end cap 4. The second gear 7 is fixedly connected to the right end of the spool 5. A left-right extending rotating shaft 8 is rotatably connected between the first end cap 3 and the second end cap 4. A center-feeding switch 9 is fixed outside the rotating shaft 8. A connecting rod 10 is installed inside the second end cap 4. The lower end of the connecting rod 10 is rotatably connected to the second end cap 4 via a pin 11. Center-feeding... A swing arm 12 is installed at the lower end of switch 9 to contact the outer wall of connecting rod 10 and drive connecting rod 10 to rotate. The upper end of connecting rod 10 is connected to a side-press wire release switch 14 and a movable frame 15 via a connecting pin 13. The front end of the side-press wire release switch 14 protrudes outside the second end cover 4. A fixed frame 16 is fixed in the middle of the second end cover 4. A spring 17 extending back and forth is installed between the front end of movable frame 15 and fixed frame 16. A gear disk 18 is fixed on the second gear 7. Multiple tooth grooves 181 are evenly distributed on the outer side of gear disk 18. The rear end of movable frame 15 has a protruding tooth 151, and the tooth grooves 181 allow the protruding tooth 151 to engage. Gear disk 18 is fixed to the left side of second gear 7.
[0019] like Figure 2As shown, the swing rod 12 extends left and right and is fixed to the lower right side of the center wire release switch 9. The second end cover 4 has an arc-shaped groove 41 on the left side. The left side of the arc-shaped groove 41 is open for the right end of the swing rod 12 to be inserted. The right end of the swing rod 12 is located in front of the middle of the connecting rod 10. When the center wire release switch 9 is pressed down, the center wire release switch 9 rotates around the rotating shaft 8, and drives the swing rod 12 to rotate. The swing rod 12 moves in the arc groove 41 and swings backward, which pushes the connecting rod 10 behind it. The connecting rod 10 rotates around the pin 11 and the upper end of the connecting rod 10 moves backward. After the upper end of the connecting rod 10 moves backward, the connecting rod 10 drives the movable frame 15 to move backward. The spring 17 is compressed, causing the protruding tooth 151 at the rear end of the movable frame 15 to move backward and separate from the tooth groove 181. After the gear disk 18 is freed from the restraint of the protruding tooth 151, it can rotate freely. The first gear 6 can drive the second gear 7 to rotate, and the second gear 7 can drive the spool 5 to rotate. After releasing, the spring 17 will drive the corresponding parts to reset.
[0020] like Figure 2 As shown, the rear end of the side-pressed line release switch 14, the middle of the front end of the movable frame 15, and the upper end of the connecting rod 10 are connected together by a connecting pin 13. The connecting rod 10, the side-pressed line release switch 14, and the movable frame 15 are distributed from left to right. When the side-pressed line release switch 14 is pressed backward, it drives the movable frame 15 to move backward, compressing the spring 17. This causes the protruding tooth 151 at the rear end of the movable frame 15 to move backward and separate from the tooth groove 181. After the gear disk 18 is freed from the restraint of the protruding tooth 151, it can rotate freely. The first gear 6 can drive the second gear 7 to rotate, and the second gear 7 can then drive the spool 5 to rotate. After releasing the switch, the spring 17 will drive the corresponding components to return to their original positions.
[0021] like Figure 4 As shown, the front end of the second end cap 4 has a through hole 42, and the side-press wire release switch 14 passes through the through hole 42 and slides back and forth with the through hole 42.
[0022] The dual-wire-feeding switch structure of the drum wheel provided by this utility model can realize the wire-feeding function by both the center wire-feeding switch 9 and the side-press wire-feeding switch 14. Compared with the drum wheel with only a single wire-feeding switch, it is more flexible and convenient to use.
[0023] Of course, the above are only preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and do not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications and equivalent structural changes made based on the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings should also be included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
