Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fishing tackle, specifically to a fishing reel with an integrated rear brake. Background Technology

[0002] A spinning reel includes a reel body, a spool for winding line, a transmission device, and a line holder assembly. The reel body includes a rod mount portion that can be mounted on a fishing rod, a frame portion, and a cover portion. The frame portion has space for various structures, such as a rotating structure for mounting the line holder assembly. The cover portion covers the space for the frame portion. The spool is mounted on the reel body in a manner that allows it to move back and forth relative to the reel body. The line holder assembly is rotatably mounted on the reel body for winding fishing line onto the spool.

[0003] Spinning reels need to fight the fish, so they require sufficient braking force to unload the fish's pull. The front brake system of the reel is fixed on the main shaft and only has rotational damping force in the radial direction, resulting in low line release damping. After a fish is hooked, the low line release force is obviously unsuitable. At this stage, the fish is fighting and its energy needs to be depleted, so a relatively large line release force is required. Clearly, traditional front brake fishing gear is no longer suitable. Fishing reels with front and rear brake systems solve this problem. The rear brake in existing technology is mounted on one end of the main shaft, which is complex and time-consuming to assemble.

[0004] Therefore, there is room for improvement in the rear brake of existing fishing reels. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned shortcomings, the purpose of this invention is to provide a fishing reel with a simple structure and integrated rear brake, thereby solving the problems of the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A fishing reel with an integrated rear brake includes a reel body, a reel for winding line, a transmission device, and a line holder assembly. The reel body includes a rod mounting base for mounting on a fishing rod, a frame, and a cover. The rear brake is fixedly connected to the frame by screws. The rear brake includes a rear brake adjustment knob, a brake seat, a counterspindle support, two brake washers, a lug washer, a brake nut, and a brake spring. The brake seat is an annular hollow cup with a central through hole on the bottom surface and internal threads on the inner edge facing the rear brake adjustment knob. The brake nut... The rear brake adjustment knob is fixedly connected to one side, and the other side of the brake nut includes external threads. The internal threads are screwed onto the external threads to compress or relax the brake spring. The secondary shaft support includes a central shaft portion and a support ring portion that protrudes radially from the central shaft portion. The central shaft portion is disposed in the central through hole of the brake seat. The two brake washers are respectively located on both sides of the support ring portion and are sleeved and connected to the central shaft portion. The lug washer is sleeved and connected to the central shaft portion. The two sides of the lug washer are respectively connected to the brake washer and the brake spring. The brake spring is used to compress the lug washer to generate braking force.

[0008] According to the preferred embodiment of the application, the fishing reel with an integrated rear brake includes an annular plate portion with a central hole and two radially protruding plate portions corresponding to the center. The brake seat has two grooves corresponding to the positions of the two plate portions, and the grooves are used to radially prevent the rotation of the reel.

[0009] According to the preferred embodiment of the application, the fishing reel with an integrated rear brake further includes a soft rubber sheet disposed on the annular outer surface of the rear brake adjustment knob for hand-rotating the rear brake adjustment knob.

[0010] According to the preferred embodiment of the fishing reel with an integrated rear brake, the rear brake further includes a buckle, which is a C-shaped ring with recessed buckles at both ends. An annular groove is formed on the outer surface of the brake seat corresponding to the position of the recessed buckles. A buckle hole is formed on the annular outer surface of the rear brake adjustment knob corresponding to the position of the recessed buckles. An annular groove is formed on the annular outer surface of the rear brake adjustment knob corresponding to the position of the ring body of the buckle. The recessed buckles engage with the buckle hole and the annular groove to axially limit the rear brake adjustment knob.

[0011] According to the preferred embodiment of the application, the fishing reel with an integrated rear brake includes a transmission device comprising a countershaft and a torque transmission shaft. One end of the countershaft is disposed in the shaft hole of the central shaft portion. The countershaft has a countershaft pin hole. The central shaft portion has a torque transmission hole at the position corresponding to the countershaft pin hole. The torque transmission shaft passes through and connects the countershaft pin hole and the torque transmission hole for transmitting torque.

[0012] The design concept of this application is to design a simple, integrated, and modular rear brake to increase versatility and simplify the design of the fishing reel body. The rear brake can automatically correct slight eccentricity of the countershaft. As a part that transmits braking torque, the countershaft is not rigidly connected to the countershaft support, but rather has a clearance fit. The radial rotational freedom of the countershaft is restricted by the torque transmission shaft, but the countershaft can still rotate around the axis of the torque transmission shaft. In addition, slight eccentricity of the main shaft will not affect the smoothness of the rear brake.

[0013] Due to the adoption of the above technical features, this application has the following advantages and positive effects compared with the prior art:

[0014] First, the simple structure, integrated and modular rear brake of this application increases commonality and simplifies the design of the fishing reel body;

[0015] Secondly, the slight eccentricity of the main shaft in this application will not affect the smoothness of the rear brake.

[0016] Of course, any specific embodiment of the present invention may not necessarily have all of the above technical effects at the same time. Attached Figure Description

[0024] For ease of understanding, the preferred embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] The fishing reel of this application uses a simple, integrated, and modular rear brake. The rear brake is universal, which simplifies the design of the main body of the fishing reel and can automatically correct slight eccentricity of the countershaft. As a part that transmits braking torque, the countershaft is not rigidly connected to the countershaft support, but rather has a clearance fit. Slight eccentricity of the main shaft will not affect the smoothness of the rear brake.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 1 The cross-sectional view of this application shows a fishing reel including a reel body, a reel 20 for winding line, a transmission device 30, and a line holder assembly 40. The reel body includes a rod mounting base 11 for mounting on a fishing rod, a frame 12, and a cover (not shown). The rear brake 50 is fixedly connected to the frame 12 by screws. (Note: The cross-sectional view shows different positions of the cut lines.) Figure 1 The cover portion is not visible in the image. The cover portion is used to cover the frame portion 12 to form an accommodating space for housing the transmission device 30, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the rear brake 50 is connected to one end of the sub-shaft 36 and is located on the outside of the frame 12, making it easy to replace the entire reel with other fishing reels.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 7 The rear brake 50 described in this application includes a rear brake adjustment knob 51, a brake seat 52, a countershaft support seat 53, two brake washers 54, a lug washer 55, a brake nut 56, and a brake spring 57, wherein, as Figure 7 As shown, the brake seat 52 is an annular hollow cup. The bottom surface of the brake seat 52 has a central through hole 522 and two screw holes 523. After the two screws pass through the through hole of the frame part 12, they are locked to the two screw holes 523 to fix the rear brake 50 on the frame part 12. The inner edge of the brake seat 52 facing the rear brake adjustment knob 51 has an internal thread 524, which is the side of the brake seat 52 facing upward in the figure. Figure 3 In this embodiment, one side of the brake nut 56 is fixedly connected to the rear brake adjustment knob 51, and the other side of the brake nut 56 includes external threads. The outer edge of the brake nut 56 includes an axial step. The side with a smaller diameter is inserted into the groove connecting the rear brake adjustment knob 51, while the side with a larger diameter is the side including the external threads. The internal threads 524 are screwed onto the external threads to compress or relax the brake spring 57. For example, to generate a large braking force, the rear brake adjustment knob 51 is rotated clockwise. At this time, the brake nut 56 faces... Figure 3 The brake spring 57 is compressed downwards to generate a large braking force.

[0028] like Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the secondary shaft support 53 includes a central shaft portion 531 and a support ring portion 532 that protrudes radially from the central shaft portion. The central shaft portion 531 is disposed in the central through hole 522 of the brake seat 52. The two brake washers 54 are respectively located on both sides of the support ring portion 532 and are sleeved and connected to the central shaft portion 531. In this embodiment, the brake washers 54 are annular hollow sheet spring plates, one above the other, sleeved on the central shaft portion 531 as a force-bearing material that forms pressure when the brake spring 57 generates a large braking force. The secondary shaft support 53 is sandwiched between the two brake washers 54, which reduces the rotational force of the secondary shaft support 53 when subjected to force.

[0029] like Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the lug washer 55 is sleeved and connected to the central shaft portion 531 and is located at the upper end of the central shaft portion 531 in the figure. The two sides of the lug washer 55 are respectively connected to the brake washer 54 and the brake spring 57. The brake spring 57 is used to compress the lug washer 55 to generate braking force. In this embodiment, the two ends of the brake spring 57 are respectively connected to the brake nut 56 and the lug washer 55. Therefore, when the brake nut 56 rotates downward, it drives the brake spring 57 downward, and the spring force compresses the lug washer 55. The lug washer 55 compresses the brake washer 54 to generate braking force and reduce the rotational force of the secondary shaft support 53.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 4 The ear washer 55 includes an annular plate portion 551 with a central hole and two radially protruding ear portions 552 corresponding to the center. The brake seat 52 has two ear grooves 525 corresponding to the positions of the two ear portions 552. In the embodiments of this application, as shown... Figure 7 As shown, the ear groove 525 is opened on one side of the internal thread 524. During assembly, the two ear pieces 552 of the ear washer 55 are aligned and placed into the ear groove 525, and continue downward until the annular piece 551 is sleeved and connected to the central shaft 531. At this time, the ear washer 55 contacts and connects to the upper surface of the brake washer 54. When the rear brake is working, the secondary shaft support 53 will rotate. The ear groove 525 is used to radially prevent the ear washer 55 from rotating and thus avoid affecting the braking force.

[0031] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the rear brake 50 also includes a soft rubber sheet 58, which is disposed on the annular outer surface of the rear brake adjustment knob 51 for hand-held rotation of the rear brake adjustment knob 51. When the rear brake is in operation, the angler holds the soft rubber sheet 58 to rotate and adjust the tightness of the braking force. Using soft materials can improve the feel and increase the comfort and enjoyment of fishing, but this cannot be used to limit this application. Any material that can be hand-held and rotated, such as hard materials, should be within the scope of protection of this application.

[0032] Figure 4 In the process, the rear brake 50 also includes a retaining ring 59, which is a C-shaped ring with recessed buckles 591 at both ends. An annular groove 521 is formed on the outer surface of the brake seat 52 corresponding to the position of the recessed buckles 591. After assembly, the recessed buckles 591 are inserted into the annular groove 521 and can slide within it as the rear brake adjustment knob 51 rotates. A buckle hole 511 is formed on the annular outer surface of the rear brake adjustment knob 51 corresponding to the position of the recessed buckles 591. The buckle hole 511 is a through hole. The annular outer surface of the brake adjustment knob 51 has an annular groove 512 corresponding to the position of the annular body 592 of the buckle 59. After assembly, the annular body 592 of the buckle 59 is inserted into the annular groove 512 and will not protrude from the annular outer surface of the rear brake adjustment knob 51, so it will not affect the smoothness of the appearance of the soft rubber 58. The concave buckle 591 fastens and connects the buckle hole 511 and the annular groove 521, and the concave buckle 591 passes through the buckle hole 511 and enters the annular groove 521 to axially limit the rear brake adjustment knob 51.

[0033] like Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the transmission device 30 includes a secondary shaft 36 and a torque transmission shaft 37. One end of the secondary shaft 36 is disposed in the shaft hole 5311 of the central shaft portion 531. In this embodiment, a segmented rotating shaft is used, thus splitting the existing single main shaft into a main shaft 35 and a secondary shaft 36. If the rear brake 50 of this application is applied to a fishing reel with a single main shaft in the prior art, then the main shaft is connected to the shaft hole 5311. The secondary shaft 36 has a secondary shaft pin hole 361, and the central shaft portion 531 has a torque transmission hole 5312 corresponding to the position of the secondary shaft pin hole 361. The torque transmission shaft 37 passes through and connects the secondary shaft pin hole 361 and the torque transmission hole 5312 to transmit torque. Figure 6As can be seen, there is a gap between the two end faces of the torque transmission shaft 37 after it passes through the torque transmission hole 5312 and the inner edge face of the central through hole 522. In this way, the torque transmission shaft 37 will not collide with the inner edge face of the central through hole 522 when it rotates, and can rotate smoothly. At the same time, it can be seen that the secondary shaft 36, as a part that transmits braking torque, is not rigidly connected to the secondary shaft support 53, but rather has a clearance fit. The radial rotational freedom of the secondary shaft 36 is restricted by the torque transmission shaft 37, but the secondary shaft 36 can still rotate around the axis of the torque transmission shaft 37. In addition, the slight eccentricity of the main shaft 35 will not affect the smoothness of the rear brake.

[0034] It should be noted that the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to define components is merely for the purpose of distinguishing the corresponding components. Unless otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning and therefore should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this application.

[0035] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by directional terms such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "horizontal, vertical, horizontal" and "top, bottom" is usually based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise stated, these directional terms 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, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of protection of this application; the directional terms "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours relative to the outline of each component itself.

[0036] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical features, this application has the following advantages and positive effects compared with the prior art:

[0037] First, the simple structure, integrated and modular rear brake of this application increases commonality and simplifies the design of the fishing reel body;

[0038] Secondly, the slight eccentricity of the main shaft in this application will not affect the smoothness of the rear brake.

[0039] Of course, any specific embodiment of the present invention may not necessarily have all of the above technical effects at the same time.

[0040] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model, but are not intended to limit the scope thereof. Any equivalent changes and modifications made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and essence of the present utility model shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
