A long service life fishing reel

Abstract

This invention provides a fishing reel with a long service life. During casting, the curved seat rotates, causing the conversion rod to deflect, thereby compressing the return spring. After casting, the square seat rotates, causing the compressed return spring to return to its original shape. Its elastic force pushes the conversion rod back to its original position, thus resetting the casting line and enabling casting to open and close. The return spring in this application is designed with a structure including a top spring segment, a middle spring segment, and a bottom spring segment. The pitch of the middle spring segment is set to a small pitch or zero pitch, ensuring that the middle spring segment undergoes almost no deformation during the reset process. This effectively avoids pitch deformation and material fatigue caused by frequent compression and rebound of traditional springs. Simultaneously, this structure significantly reduces friction damage between the head of the fixed post and the inner hole of the spring, improves the smoothness of the movement of components, reduces wear and heat effects caused by friction, and further enhances the structural stability and service life of the spring.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fishing reel technology, specifically to a fishing reel with a long service life. Background Technology

[0002] As a key component of fishing gear, the performance of the fishing reel directly affects the fishing experience. Most widely used fishing reels today employ a design with a casting assembly to facilitate casting and reeling. In these reels, the casting assembly typically includes a curved seat and a square seat located on both sides of the line housing. These components drive the casting mechanism to open and close the line catch. The curved seat rotates around a pivot point via a rotating structure mounted on its mounting base, thus completing the casting assembly's switching action.

[0003] In some existing technologies, to achieve automatic reset of the casting assembly, a reset component, such as a reset spring and a conversion rod, is often installed between the bend seat and the bend seat mounting base. During the opening or closing of the line-blocking assembly, the conversion rod causes the reset spring to compress and rebound, thus providing a reset force. However, in actual use, because the reset spring needs to frequently reciprocate with the conversion rod through bending or compression, and because there is continuous friction between the head of the fixed post included in the conversion rod and the inner hole of the spring, and the spring pitch constantly changes during movement (from large to small or from small to large), spring fatigue or even breakage is easily caused, seriously affecting the service life of the fishing reel. Therefore, how to solve the problem of poor reliability and short lifespan of the reset spring structure in existing fishing reels under conditions of high usage frequency and complex working environments, thus leading to a short service life of the fishing reel, is a problem that needs to be solved at this stage. Utility Model Content

The line housing includes a main body, a curved seat mounting base and a square seat mounting base disposed opposite each other on the main body. A casting assembly is mounted on the curved seat mounting base and the square seat mounting base. The casting assembly includes a curved seat and a square seat rotatably mounted on the curved seat mounting base and the square seat mounting base, respectively, and a casting line mounted on the square seat and the curved seat. A reset component for controlling the casting line reset is fitted on the curved seat and the curved seat mounting base. The reset component includes... A conversion rod and a return spring are provided. The conversion rod includes a fixed post and a support post perpendicularly connected to the fixed post at its end. The support post is installed in a conversion rod mounting hole on the bend seat. The end of the fixed post away from the support post is sleeved into the return spring. The end of the return spring away from the fixed post is installed into a limiting hole on the bottom side of the bend seat mounting base. The return spring includes a top spring segment, a middle spring segment connected to the top spring segment, and a bottom spring segment connected to the other end of the middle spring segment. The pitch of the middle spring segment is a small pitch or a zero pitch.

The lever includes a lever body, a lever small end connected to one end of the lever body and perpendicular to the lever body, and a lever large end connected to the other end of the lever body and perpendicular to the lever body. The lever small end is installed in an arc-shaped mounting hole provided on the curved seat, and the end of the lever large end is connected to a locking mechanism that engages with the groove of the spool.

[0007] Furthermore, the locking mechanism is a latch.

[0012] Preferably, the switching rod is a plastic rotating rod.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] This invention provides a fishing reel with a long service life. When casting occurs, the curved seat rotates, causing the conversion rod to deflect, thereby compressing the return spring. After casting, the square seat rotates, at which point the compressed return spring returns to its original shape. Its elastic force pushes the conversion rod back to its original position, thus resetting the casting mechanism and opening and closing it. The return spring in this application is designed with a structure comprising a top spring segment, a middle spring segment, and a bottom spring segment. The pitch of the middle spring segment is set to a small pitch or zero pitch, ensuring that the middle spring segment undergoes almost no deformation during the reset process. This effectively avoids pitch deformation and material fatigue caused by frequent compression and rebound of traditional springs. Simultaneously, this structure significantly reduces friction damage between the head of the fixed post and the inner hole of the spring, improves the smoothness of the movement of components, reduces wear and heat effects caused by friction, and further enhances the structural stability and service life of the spring. Therefore, this fishing reel solves the problems of easy breakage and short lifespan of the return spring in traditional fishing reels, enhancing the overall reliability and durability of the fishing reel in high-frequency use or harsh environments.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The embodiments described below are merely some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0024] See Figs. 1-6 This embodiment provides a fishing reel with a long service life, comprising a main body 10, a line cup 20 mounted at one end of the main body 10, and a line housing 30 mounted on the main body 10. The line housing 30 includes a line housing body 31, a curved seat mounting base 32 and a square seat mounting base 33 disposed opposite to each other on the line housing body 31. A line casting assembly 43 is mounted on the curved seat mounting base 32 and the square seat mounting base 33. The line casting assembly 43 includes a curved seat 41 and a square seat 42 respectively rotatably disposed on the curved seat mounting base 32 and the square seat mounting base 33, and a line casting assembly 43 mounted on the square seat 42 and the curved seat 41. A reset assembly for controlling the reset of the line casting assembly is provided on the curved seat 41 and the curved seat mounting base 32. The component includes a conversion rod 50 and a return spring 60. The conversion rod 50 includes a fixed post 51 and a support post 52 disposed at the end of the fixed post 51 and perpendicularly connected to the fixed post 51. The support post 52 is installed in a conversion rod mounting hole 44 provided on the bend seat 41. The end of the fixed post 51 away from the support post 52 is sleeved into the return spring 60. The end of the return spring 60 away from the fixed post 51 is installed into a limiting hole 45 provided on the bottom side of the bend seat mounting base 32. The return spring 60 includes a top spring segment 61, a middle spring segment 62 connected to the top spring segment 61, and a bottom spring segment 63 connected to the other end of the middle spring segment 62. The pitch of the middle spring segment 62 is a small pitch or a zero pitch.

[0025] Preferably, a lever mounting position 46 is provided on the inner side of the curved seat mounting base 32. A lever 70 is provided on the lever mounting position 46. The lever 70 includes a lever body 71, a lever small end 72 perpendicular to the lever body 71 and connected to one end of the lever body 71, and a lever large end 73 perpendicular to the lever body 71 and connected to the other end of the lever body 71. The lever small end 72 is installed in an arc-shaped mounting hole 47 provided on the curved seat 41. The end of the lever large end 73 is connected to a locking mechanism that engages with a groove of the spool 20. The lever 70 plays a key role in transmitting the action and realizing the locking / releasing of the casting 43 structure. When the user performs the line casting operation 43, the bent seat 41 rotates under force, causing the small end 72 of the actuating lever mounted on the bent seat 41 to slide along the arc-shaped mounting hole 47, thereby causing the main body 71 of the actuating lever to move vertically up and down (the design of the arc-shaped mounting hole 47 causes the small end 72 of the actuating lever to slide along an arc-shaped trajectory during the rotation of the bent seat 41. The movement of the arc-shaped trajectory is different from simple linear movement; it not only causes the small end 72 of the actuating lever to deflect, but also causes the main body 71 of the actuating lever to shift vertically (i.e., up and down) due to the geometric characteristics of the arc). Since one end of the large end 73 of the actuating lever is connected to a locking mechanism, when the main body 71 of the actuating lever moves, the locking mechanism will act accordingly, disengaging from the groove of the spool 20, thereby unlocking the line casting structure 43, allowing the spool 20 to rotate freely for line casting 43. After casting 43, the elastic action of the reset assembly (including the reset spring 60 and the conversion lever 50) pushes the bend seat 41 to rotate in the opposite direction. This causes the small end 72 of the lever to drive the main body 71 of the lever back to its initial position, and the large end 73 of the lever also returns to its original position. This causes the locking mechanism to re-embed into the groove of the spool 20, locking the spool 20 and returning the fishing reel to standby mode. Therefore, the design of the lever 70 effectively links the action of the bend seat 41 with the locking / unlocking function of the spool 20. Furthermore, the locking structure uses a snap-fit ​​mechanism, ensuring structural stability and rapid response. This effectively avoids the risk of misoperation or line slippage due to locking failure during casting 43, further enhancing the practicality and safety of the fishing reel.

[0026] Preferably, the periphery of the end of the fixed post 51 furthest from the support post 52 is arc-shaped, and the maximum diameter of this end is smaller than the diameter of the return spring 60. The arc-shaped structure can prevent severe friction between the return spring 60 and the fixed post 51 during compression and rebound, reduce frictional resistance, and thus reduce heat and wear caused by friction, thereby extending the service life of the return spring 60 and other moving parts.

[0027] Preferably, the maximum width of the middle part of the fixing post 51 is greater than the diameter of the return spring 60, which can effectively limit the position of the return spring 60 (i.e., when the return spring 60 is compressed, the top of the spring can be limited), avoiding misalignment or deformation of the spring and ensuring that it is always in a stable working state during use. It should be noted that in this application, the end of the fixing post 51 near the support post 52 is set as a square structure, the side of the square structure is recessed with an arc-shaped structure, and the side of the square structure that contacts the return spring 60 is a square plane, the width of which is greater than the diameter of the spring.

[0028] Preferably, the pitch of the ends of the top spring segment 61 and the bottom spring segment 63 is small pitch or zero pitch. This allows the top spring segment 61 and the bottom spring segment 63 to work more stably when in contact with other structural components, reducing the deformation of the spring during compression and rebound. This small pitch or zero pitch design effectively avoids uneven stress caused by changes in spring pitch, thereby reducing the risk of spring fatigue and breakage due to uneven stress.

[0029] Preferably, the bend seat mounting base 32 is provided with a bend seat rotating column 48, and the bend seat 41 is provided with a rotating hole 49. The rotating hole 49 is rotatably disposed on the bend seat rotating column 48 and is fixed by a screw 50.

[0030] Preferably, the side of the curved mounting base 32 is provided with a side piece 34 of the housing 30, which can be detached by a screw 51, to facilitate the replacement of internal components.

[0031] Preferably, the conversion lever 50 is a plastic rotating lever. Plastic is lightweight, reducing the overall load on the fishing reel and thus improving its operational flexibility and comfort. Simultaneously, the flexibility and elasticity of the plastic conversion lever 50 can reduce wear caused by long-term use and minimize friction damage with the spring, maintaining its functional stability over time. Compared to metal or other rigid materials, the plastic conversion lever 50 also has advantages in manufacturing cost and weight control, further optimizing the cost-effectiveness and performance of the fishing reel.

[0032] Preferably, the pitch of the middle spring segment 62 is 0 pitch. After the return spring 60 is installed into the limiting hole 45, its end is glued into the limiting hole 45.

[0033] This utility model provides a fishing reel with a long service life. When casting 43 occurs, the bend seat 41 rotates, causing the conversion rod 50 to deflect, thereby compressing the return spring 60. After casting 43 ends, the square seat 42 is pushed to rotate, at which point the compressed return spring 60 returns to its original shape. Its elastic force pushes the conversion rod 50 back to its original position, thereby driving the casting 43 to reset, realizing the opening and closing of the casting 43 structure. The return spring 60 in this application is configured to include a top spring segment 61, a middle spring segment 62, and a bottom spring segment 63. The pitch of the middle spring segment 62 is set to a small pitch or 0 pitch, so that the middle spring segment 62 hardly deforms during the reset process, thereby effectively avoiding the pitch deformation and material fatigue caused by frequent compression and rebound of traditional springs. Meanwhile, this structure significantly reduces frictional damage between the head of the fixing post 51 and the inner hole of the spring (the head of the fixing post 51 rubs against the inner wall of the middle spring section 62), improves the smoothness of the movement of the components, reduces wear and heat effects caused by friction, and further enhances the structural stability and service life of the spring. Therefore, this fishing reel solves the problems of easy breakage and short lifespan of the return spring 60 in traditional fishing reels, and enhances the overall reliability and durability of the fishing reel in high-frequency use or harsh environments.

[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 claims of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
