Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fishing reel technology, specifically to a fishing reel brake alarm device that enhances braking force. Background Technology

[0002] In fishing, fishing reels, used for reeling in and out of fishing line, are typically two- or three-axis reels, also known as baitcasting reels, drum reels, or lure reels. Fishing reels have a braking force, achieved by turning the spindle with a handle, which drives the gears and applies this force to the reel to retrieve the line. If a fish exerts significant force during retrieval, it overcomes this braking force, pulling the line into the water and causing the reel and gears to reverse. This reverse rotation produces a knocking sound to alert the angler. In modern reels, the braking mechanism consists of multiple carbon fiber brake pads and spacers mounted on the spindle. When the braking mechanism receives axial force, the brake pads and spacers tighten together, increasing friction and thus braking the line during retrieval.

[0003] For example, the applicant's application, with publication number CN217509723U and titled "A Fishing Reel Linked Sound Generating Device," uses a linkage device to clamp the reel, thereby causing the main shaft to drive the main gear to rotate forward under braking force, thus achieving line reeling. However, after market research and repeated testing, the applicant found that even when the brake pads are pressed against other components to generate braking force, slippage still occurs, resulting in insufficient braking force. Only by relying on the adjustment device set on the main shaft to apply greater axial force to the linkage component and the sound generating component can a braking effect be achieved, ensuring that the main shaft rotates forward under braking force, thereby completing the line reeling action.

[0004] Therefore, a new technical solution is urgently needed to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To overcome the shortcomings mentioned above, this utility model provides a fishing reel brake assembly to solve the aforementioned technical problems.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the technical problem is:

[0007] A fishing reel brake alarm device with enhanced braking force includes a main shaft and a stop gear, a main gear, a brake assembly, and a sound-generating assembly mounted on the main shaft. The end face of the main gear has a mounting cavity formed therein, housing the brake assembly and the sound-generating assembly. The sound-generating assembly includes:

[0008] A gear ring is engaged within the mounting cavity and rotates with the main gear. The gear ring has an inner ring coaxial with the mounting cavity, and actuating teeth are provided on the inner wall of the inner ring.

[0009] The pressure plate has a central hole at its center that is slidably connected to the main shaft along the axial direction. The circumferential surface of the pressure plate has elastic teeth that protrude from its circumferential surface. The teeth move in relation to the actuating teeth, producing a sound. The end face of the pressure plate facing the bottom of the inner ring has an elastic separation structure. Under the elastic force of the elastic separation structure, the circumferential edge of the pressure plate or the circumferential edge of the central hole abuts against the bottom of the inner ring. The pressure plate is compressed by the axial force against the elastic separation structure, causing the contact area between the pressure plate and the bottom of the inner ring to gradually increase, and the contour of the contact area between the pressure plate and the bottom of the inner ring extends towards the central hole or the circumference of the pressure plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the elastic separation structure includes setting the surface of the pressure plate facing the bottom of the inner ring from the circumference to the edge of the central hole as an inclined structure, such that the circumference of the pressure plate or the edge of the central hole is inclined away from the bottom of the inner ring, and a gap is defined between them.

[0011] Furthermore, a mounting groove is formed on the surface of the pressure plate, and at least one through groove communicating with the outside is formed on the side wall of the mounting groove. The pressure plate also includes at least one actuating spring that is engaged in the mounting groove and adapted to the through groove. The actuating spring includes two elastically deformable legs and a protruding end located in the middle of the two legs. The protruding end extends through the through groove and protrudes toward the actuating teeth, forming a actuating tooth part for moving relative to the actuating teeth to produce sound.

[0012] Furthermore, a protrusion is formed within the mounting groove, the protrusion being located in a circular position within the mounting groove, and the central hole is formed on the protrusion.

[0013] Furthermore, the sound-generating component also includes a cover plate, which is axially movably connected to the main shaft and covers the pressure plate, and encloses the actuating spring within the mounting groove.

[0014] Furthermore, the brake assembly includes a first brake pad and a second brake pad mounted on the main shaft and located between the gear ring and the bottom of the mounting cavity, and also includes a partition plate disposed between the first brake pad and the second brake pad and movably connected to the main shaft along the axis, wherein both surfaces of the partition plate are provided with rough surfaces.

[0015] Furthermore, the brake assembly also includes a third brake pad disposed between the stop gear and the main gear, the third brake pad being fitted onto the main shaft.

[0016] Furthermore, the brake assembly also includes a fourth brake pad mounted on the main shaft and located between the gear ring and the pressure plate.

[0017] Furthermore, the surfaces of the stop gear facing the third brake pad, the main gear facing the third brake pad, the bottom surface of the mounting cavity, the gear ring facing the second brake pad, the bottom surface of the inner ring, and the pressure plate facing the fourth brake pad are all roughened.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0019] This utility model provides a fishing reel brake alarm device with enhanced braking force. It is mounted on the reel, and after a fish is hooked, the rocker arm drives the main shaft to rotate. During braking, the main gear rotates with the main shaft to complete the line reeling action. When the fish's escape force is large and exceeds the braking force, the output gear reverses on the main shaft, emitting a knocking sound through the sound-generating component to warn the angler. This technical solution incorporates an elastic separation structure on the pressure plate of the sound-generating component. When the device is pressed down by the adjustment device, the elastic separation structure on the pressure plate ensures more even pressure between the braking components and further enhances the pressure on the braking components, thereby strengthening the braking force and improving the reel's line reeling ability.

[0025] To make the technical problems solved, technical solutions, and beneficial effects 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 only for explaining this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0026] It should be noted that all directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in this utility model embodiment are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly.

[0028] This utility model provides a fishing reel brake alarm device with enhanced braking force, which is mounted on the reel. After a fish is hooked, the rocker arm drives the main shaft 100 to rotate. During braking, the main gear 130 rotates together with the main shaft 100 to complete the line reeling action. When the fish's escape force is large and exceeds the braking force, the output gear reverses on the main shaft 100, thereby emitting a knocking sound through the sound-emitting component 300 to warn the angler. This technical solution provides an elastic separation structure on the pressure plate 320 of the sound-emitting component 300. When the device is pressed down by the adjustment device, the elastic separation structure on the pressure plate 320 makes the clamping force between the brake components 200 more uniform. Furthermore, the elastic separation structure can further enhance the clamping force on the brake components 200, thereby strengthening the braking force of the brake components 200 and enhancing the line reeling ability of the reel.

[0029] Specifically, as shown in titles 1-4, this utility model embodiment provides a fishing reel brake alarm device to enhance braking force. It includes a main shaft 100 and a stop gear 120, a main gear 130, a brake assembly 200, and a sound-generating assembly 300 mounted on the main shaft 100. The main gear 130 has a mounting cavity 131 formed on its end face, housing the brake assembly 200 and the sound-generating assembly 300. The sound-generating assembly includes a gear ring 310 and a pressure plate 320. The gear ring 310 is engaged within the mounting cavity 131 and rotates with the main gear 130. The gear ring 310 has an inner ring 311 coaxial with the mounting cavity 131, and actuating teeth 312 are provided on the inner wall of the inner ring 311. The pressure plate 320 has a center with a... A central hole 322 is axially slidably connected to the main shaft 100. The circumferential surface of the pressure plate 320 is provided with a toothed part that protrudes from its circumferential surface and has elasticity. The toothed part and the actuating tooth 312 move with each other and make a sound. The end face of the pressure plate 320 facing the bottom of the inner ring 311 is provided with an elastic separation structure from the bottom of the inner ring 311. Under the action of the elastic force of the elastic separation structure, the circumferential edge of the pressure plate 320 or the circumferential edge of the central hole 322 abuts against the bottom of the inner ring 311. The pressure plate 320 is compressed by the elastic force of the elastic separation structure under the axial force, so that the contact surface between the pressure plate 320 and the bottom of the inner ring 311 gradually increases, and the contour of the contact surface between the pressure plate 320 and the bottom of the inner ring 311 extends toward the central hole 322 or the circumferential direction of the pressure plate 320.

[0030] In this embodiment, a plurality of claws 313 are evenly spaced on the circumferential surface of the gear ring 310, and correspondingly, a slot 132 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting cavity 131 for the claws 313 to engage in the slot, thereby enabling the gear ring 310 to be engaged in the mounting cavity 131.

[0031] After the fish is hooked, the adjusting device mounted on the rocker arm presses the device together, and the rocker arm of the reel rotates, thereby driving the main shaft 100 to rotate. At this time, under the braking force of the brake assembly 200, the main gear 130 rotates, causing the reel to perform a line winding operation. Meanwhile, the adjusting device mounted on the rocker arm presses the device together, causing the pressure plate 320 to experience an axial force towards the main gear 130. At this time, the elastic force of the elastic separation structure on the pressure plate 320 is compressed, causing the pressure plate 320 to undergo elastic deformation, and thus causing the pressure plate 320 to... The contact surface between the pressure plate 320 and the bottom of the inner ring 311 gradually increases, meaning that the force application surface of the pressure plate 320 on the brake assembly 200 through the gear ring 310 gradually increases, resulting in a gradual increase in the clamping force between the brake assemblies 200 and a gradual increase in the mutual clamping surface, thereby improving the braking force of the brake assembly 200. At the same time, due to the elastic deformation of the pressure plate 320, the elastic potential energy generated by the pressure plate 320 can further increase the clamping of the brake assembly 200, thereby ensuring the stability of the braking force of the brake assembly 200.

[0032] It is worth noting that the brake assembly 200 is located on the lower side of the sound-generating assembly 300, so that when the pressure plate 320 is subjected to axial force, the axial force can be transmitted to the brake assembly 200, so that the brake assembly 200 generates braking force, thereby clamping the gear ring 310 and driving the main gear 130 to rotate together with the main shaft 100 to complete the winding of the line.

[0033] In this embodiment, as Figure 3-4 As shown, the elastic separation structure includes setting the surface of the pressure plate 320 facing the bottom of the inner ring 311 from the periphery to the edge of the central hole 322 as an inclined structure, such that the periphery of the pressure plate 320 or the edge of the central hole 322 is inclined in a direction away from the bottom of the inner ring 311, and a gap is defined between them.

[0034] In this embodiment, the bottom of the pressure plate 320 is tilted towards the central hole 322. After being assembled onto the spindle 100 and placed in the inner ring 311, the periphery of the pressure plate 320 directly or indirectly abuts against the bottom of the inner ring 311. As the surface of the pressure plate 320 gradually extends towards the central hole 322, the gap between the surface of the pressure plate 320 and the bottom surface of the inner ring 311 gradually increases, thus forming an elastic separation structure. That is, when the pressure plate 320 is subjected to axial force, the surface of the pressure plate 320 can undergo elastic deformation, causing the part of the surface of the pressure plate 320 away from the bottom of the inner ring 311 to gradually move towards the bottom of the inner ring 311 and gradually abut against the bottom of the inner ring 311 directly or indirectly. This gradually increases the direct or indirect contact area between the pressure plate 320 and the bottom of the inner ring 311. Similarly, this also gradually increases the force-bearing surface area in the brake assembly 200, thereby increasing the friction between the brake assemblies 200 and strengthening the braking force generated by the brake assembly 200. In this embodiment, the pressure plate 320 is movably connected to the main shaft 100 along the axis, so that the pressure plate 320 can move axially when subjected to axial force and rotate with the main shaft 100, thereby achieving relative movement with the gear ring 310 that is engaged in the mounting cavity 131. It is worth noting that a limiting plane extending along the axial direction is formed on the surface of the main shaft 100, and the central hole 322 is also provided with a planar inner wall that cooperates with the limiting plane, thereby achieving circumferential limiting of the pressure plate 320.

[0035] In other embodiments, the edge of the central hole 322 may directly or indirectly contact the bottom of the inner ring 311, and the surface of the pressure plate 320 may gradually extend towards the periphery, thereby increasing the gap between the surface of the pressure plate 320 and the bottom surface of the inner ring 311, thus forming an elastic separation structure.

[0036] In this embodiment, a mounting groove 323 is provided on the surface of the pressure plate 320, and at least one through groove 324 communicating with the outside is provided on the side wall of the mounting groove 323. The pressure plate 320 also includes at least one actuating spring 325 that is engaged in the mounting groove 323 and adapted to the through groove 324. The actuating spring 325 includes two elastically deformable legs 326 and a protruding end 327 located in the middle of the two legs 326 and protruding outward. The protruding end 327 extends through the through groove 324 and extends toward the actuating tooth 312, and constitutes a tooth part for making a sound by moving relative to the actuating tooth 312. When the force of the fish's escape exceeds the braking force, the main gear 130 drives the gear ring 310 to reverse, and the prying tooth and the prying tooth 312 move in a corresponding manner, thereby producing a knocking sound to warn the angler. In this embodiment, the prying spring 325 is engaged in the mounting groove 323, and the protruding end 327 protrudes along the through groove 324 and abuts against the prying tooth 312. When the gear ring 310 reverses, the prying tooth 312 and the protruding end 327 pry against each other and produce a knocking sound. At this time, as the protruding end 327 gradually pries against the prying tooth 312, the prying spring 325 undergoes elastic deformation through the leg 326, so that the protruding end 327 can still move relative to the prying tooth 312 under the restriction of the prying tooth 312 and produce a knocking sound.

[0037] In this embodiment, in order to restrict the toggle spring 325 and avoid the situation where the leg 326 has too much room for movement and thus poor stability, a protrusion 328 is formed in the mounting groove 323. The protrusion 328 is located in the circular position of the mounting groove 323, and the central hole 322 is formed on the protrusion 328.

[0038] In this embodiment, the sound-generating component 300 also includes a cover plate 330, which is axially movably connected to the main shaft 100 and covers the pressure plate 320, enclosing the actuating spring 325 within the mounting groove 323. By fastening the cover plate 330 onto the pressure plate 320 and enclosing the actuating spring 325, the striking sound is emitted within the mounting groove 323, producing a harmonic effect and making the striking sound more pleasant.

[0039] In this embodiment, the brake assembly 200 includes a first brake pad 210 and a second brake pad 220 that are fitted onto the main shaft 100 and located between the gear ring 310 and the bottom of the mounting cavity 131. It also includes a partition plate disposed between the first brake pad 210 and the second brake pad 220 and movably connected to the main shaft 100 along the axis. Both surfaces of the partition plate are provided with rough surfaces.

[0040] By separating the first brake pad 210 and the second brake pad 220 with spacer 230, and by clamping these three components together under axial force, a braking force is generated. This means that there is a braking force between the gear ring 310 and the pressure plate 320, which drives the main gear 130 to rotate during the rotation of the main shaft 100 to complete the winding action. At this time, the two surfaces of spacer 230 are made into rough surfaces, which can increase the friction between spacer 230 and the first brake pad 210 and the second brake pad 220, thereby increasing the braking force. In this embodiment, the rough surface is processed by laser engraving, sandblasting, coating, embossing, hammering, die casting, grinding, etching, drilling and other processes.

[0041] In this embodiment, the brake assembly 200 further includes a third brake pad 240 and a fourth brake pad 250. The third brake pad 240 is disposed between the stop gear 120 and the main gear 130, and is mounted on the main shaft 100. The fourth brake pad 250 is mounted on the main shaft 100 and is located between the gear ring 310 and the pressure plate 320.

[0042] Similarly, to improve braking force, the surfaces of the stop gear 120 facing the third brake pad 240, the main gear 130 facing the third brake pad 240, the bottom surface of the mounting cavity 131, the gear ring 310 facing the second brake pad 220, the bottom surface of the inner ring 311, and the pressure plate 320 facing the fourth brake pad 250 are all roughened. The roughened surfaces on the stop gear 120, main gear 130, gear ring 310, and pressure plate 320 are formed in the same way as the roughened surfaces on the spacer 230, and can all be constructed using any of the aforementioned processes.

[0043] For those skilled in the art, various other corresponding changes and modifications can be obtained based on the structure and principles disclosed in this utility model, and all such changes and modifications fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
