Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fishing gear, and more specifically, to a line protection structure for fishing gear. Background Technology

[0002] In modern fishing, especially in competitive and recreational fishing, the use of double hooks and lines has become the standard configuration for improving efficiency and adapting to complex fishing conditions.

[0003] Traditional double-hook fishing involves folding a single leader line (fishing line) in half to form a loop (a "double-ended knot") and attaching it to a swivel. The swivel is typically made of smooth metal with an extremely low coefficient of friction. This means that during the dynamic process of fishing—from forceful casting and the line's flight through the air to its sinking in the water and the impact of currents—this flexible loop inevitably slips on the swivel. Once this slippage occurs, one side of the leader line is immediately stretched while the other side is correspondingly shortened, instantly disrupting the symmetrical balance and, in severe cases, causing the leader line to break. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model provides a line protection structure for fishing gear, which at least solves the problem of easy breakage of the leader line in related technologies.

[0005] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a line protection structure for fishing gear is provided, comprising: The first protective wire portion, the second protective wire portion, and the third protective wire portion are wound around the folded sub-wire and arranged sequentially along the length direction; the first protective wire portion is close to the folded area, and the protective wire winding density of the first protective wire portion and the third protective wire portion is greater than the protective wire winding density of the second protective wire portion.

[0006] In one exemplary embodiment, the length of the sub-wire wound on the protective wire of the first protective wire portion and the third protective wire portion is less than the length of the sub-wire wound on the protective wire of the second protective wire portion.

[0007] In one exemplary embodiment, the first wire protection portion is provided with a wire splitting block, the wire splitting block abuts against the sub-wire, and the surface of the wire splitting block away from the sub-wire is provided with a wire splitting groove, and the first wire protection portion is wound along the wire splitting groove.

[0008] In an exemplary embodiment, a splitter is fitted onto one end of the third guard wire portion away from the second guard wire portion. The splitter includes at least two split channels with a preset length between them. The ends of the sub-wires correspond one-to-one with the split channels and pass through the split channels.

[0009] In one exemplary embodiment, the splitter further includes a support member, the ends of which are respectively fixed to the splitter channel.

[0010] In an exemplary embodiment, the splitter further includes a support member and a fixing member, the support member passing through the fixing member; the end of the support member is provided with a channel ring, the splitting channel passes through the channel ring, and the fixing member abuts against the splitting channel.

[0011] In one exemplary embodiment, the fastener is configured as a flared opening facing the channel ring. By incorporating several protective sections, this invention ensures the gravity balance of the sub-wire and prevents it from breaking. Therefore, it solves the problem of easy breakage of the sub-wire and improves its strength. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0014] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments.

[0015] In the following description, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined with "first," "second," etc., may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0016] Furthermore, in this application, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" may be defined relative to the orientation of the components shown in the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these directional terms can be relative concepts, used for relative description and clarification, and may change accordingly depending on the orientation of the components in the accompanying drawings.

[0017] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the term "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Furthermore, the term "coupled" can refer to an electrical connection that enables signal transmission.

[0018] As used herein, “about,” “approximately,” or “approximately” includes the stated value and the average value within an acceptable range of deviation from the given value, wherein the acceptable range of deviation is determined by a person skilled in the art taking into account the measurement under discussion and the error associated with the measurement of the given quantity (i.e., the limitations of the measurement system).

[0019] In current fishing rods, when two or more hooks need to be attached, the end of the leader line that is furthest from the hook needs to be set as a double-ended section and attached to the swivel. Generally, the double-ended sections are required to be set symmetrically to ensure balance. However, in actual use, one of the double-ended sections will slide along the swivel, causing the entire center of gravity to shift.

[0020] To prevent the center of gravity from shifting, this application provides a line protection structure for fishing gear, such as... Figure 1 As shown, this structure is applied to a folded leader line. The folded leader line has a folded portion 11 and two leader line ends for attaching hooks. The folded portion 11 is used to attach to the figure-eight swivel. Along the direction from the folded portion 11 to the leader line end, a first line guard 21, a second line guard 22, and a third line guard 23 are sequentially arranged and wound around the folded leader line. The first line guard 21 is close to the folded portion 11, and the third line guard 23 is close to the leader line end. Because the leader line is folded and wound by the three line guards, the center of gravity of the leader line remains consistent regardless of how the folded portion 11 slides in the figure-eight swivel, and will not shift, thus preventing the folded portion of the leader line from breaking. Moreover, the three line guards ensure that the wound portion of the leader line remains straight during use, which helps reduce the risk of the leader line rewinding and getting tangled with the main line or figure-eight swivel when casting or sinking in the water.

[0021] In practical use, the points where the sub-line's center of gravity may deviate are located near the fold 11 and near the end of the sub-line, respectively. Therefore, to prevent the folded sub-line from breaking at these two locations, the winding density of the protective wire in the first protective part 21 and the third protective part 23 is greater than that in the second protective part 22. Simultaneously, to concentrate the force, the length of the protective wire wrapped around the sub-line in the first protective part 21 and the third protective part 23 is shorter than that in the second protective part 22. It should be noted that when the tension is transmitted through the figure-eight ring, the rigid structure formed by the first protective part 21 initially disperses the pressure, originally concentrated at one point, across its entire length, thus significantly increasing the ultimate tensile strength at the connection point. It also effectively resists the squeezing and cutting of the metal ring, preventing the sub-line from being injured or cut due to localized pressure deformation. Similarly, for the third protective part 23, when the end of the sub-line is under force, the direction and magnitude of the tension on the two sub-lines are often asynchronous, which can affect the bifurcation... The point generates complex tearing stress, and the high-density winding of the third guard line section 23 can firmly fix the two leader lines together before they fork, ensuring that they can act as a whole to resist and disperse this tearing force, effectively preventing cracking from that point. Moreover, the third guard line section 23, together with the first guard line section 21, constitutes two high-strength anchor points for the entire guard line structure, making the entire system more balanced and stable under stress, and preventing unpredictable deformation due to excessive flexibility at a certain point. As for the second guard line section 22, its relatively sparse winding density gives it a certain degree of flexibility, which prevents the formation of new stress concentration points at the rigid-flexible interface when it is bent under stress, giving it a certain degree of anti-winding and sensitivity. Moreover, its low winding density can effectively resist the unstable disturbances caused by air resistance during casting, keeping the line group in a stable straight flight posture. After entering the water, it can resist the impact of the water flow and suppress the leader lines from bending and turning arbitrarily, thus fundamentally eliminating the risk of the leader lines winding backwards around the main line or figure-eight loops.

[0022] It should be noted that the first protective wire part 21, the second protective wire part 22 and the third protective wire part 23 can be made by folding the same protective wire in half and then wrapping it alternately, or by wrapping two protective wires alternately, or by other wrapping methods, which are not limited here; the material of the protective wire can be nylon, PE wire, etc. Example

[0023] The difference from Example 1 is that, as Figure 2-3As shown, to facilitate winding the first protective line portion 21, the first protective line portion 21 is provided with a branching block 211. One side surface of the branching block 211 abuts against the sub-line, and a branching groove is formed on the surface of the branching block 211 away from the sub-line. The first protective line portion 21 is wound along the branching groove, thereby improving winding efficiency and accuracy. Moreover, to ensure the stability of winding, the branching block 211 is composed of elastic elements such as elastic sponge, so that it can deform and compress during the winding process. In actual use, when a large fish is caught or the bottom is snagged, the figure-eight swivel will instantly generate a huge pulling and impact force on the folded part 11 of the sub-line. At this time, the elastic branching block 211 will be instantly compressed, absorbing and dissipating most of the impact energy through its own elastic deformation. At the same time, this compression-rebound process prolongs the force application time, thereby flattening a steep force peak into a gentle one. The force curve ensures that the force ultimately transmitted to the leader is filtered and buffered, thus avoiding the concentration of all force on the weakest knot or fold point, greatly reducing the rate of fish escaping due to line breakage in extreme situations. Moreover, due to the setting of the line divider block 211, the first line guard part 21 protrudes relatively. When this protrusion is impacted by the water flow, it will generate unstable micro-eddies (i.e., eddy streets) behind it. This periodically detached eddy will exert an alternating force on the line divider block 211, causing it to produce a high-frequency, small-amplitude slight swaying or vibration. This irregular dynamic will be transmitted to the hook and bait at the end through the leader, giving the originally static bait a dynamic similar to the tail wagging of a small fish or the twitching of a small shrimp. This will generate additional attraction for fish with high alertness and keen visual or lateral line perception (such as mandarin fish, bass, and perch), thus producing a fish-attracting effect. Example

[0024] The difference from Example 1 is that, to avoid tangling at the ends of the sub-wires during use, such as... Figure 4 As shown, a line splitter is fitted at the end of the third line guard 23 away from the second line guard 22. The line splitter includes at least two line splitting channels 24, and there is a certain distance between the line splitting channels 24, so that there is also a certain distance after the end of the leader line passes through the line splitting channel 24, thereby avoiding tangling. The end of the leader line corresponds one-to-one with the line splitting channel 24. In order to adapt to the changes in tension that occur during the use of fishing gear, the line splitter is made of elastic material, such as rubber, elastic silicone, etc.

[0025] To enhance the stability of the branching channels 24 and further prevent tangling, support members 25 are provided between the branching channels 24. The ends of the support members 25 are fixed to the branching channels 24. The fixing method can be integral molding or fixed connection by adhesive or other means. It is easy to understand that in order to adapt to the changes in the tension of the sub-lines, the support members 25 are also set as elastic members, but the hardness of the support members 25 is relatively greater than that of the branching channels 24 to prevent the branching channels 24 from moving closer together during use. In addition, since the entire splitter (including the channels and support members 25) is elastic, it can deform to a certain extent when subjected to force. When the two sub-lines are subjected to uneven force, the splitter allows the two sub-lines to change the included angle within a certain range, thereby buffering the tearing force on the bifurcation point of the third guard part 23 and protecting the line group. Moreover, the relatively soft channel can provide a gentler contact for the passing sub-lines to avoid damage to the line body and can adapt to small changes in the direction of tension. Example

[0026] The difference from Embodiment 3 is that the support member 25 has a channel ring 251 at its end, through which the branching channel 24 passes. To support the branching channel 24, a fixing member 26 is fitted onto the support member 25. The fixing member 26 is flared, with its opening facing the channel ring 251, and it can slide along the support member 25. When support is needed for the branching channel 24, the fixing member 26 is slid to abut against the branching channel 24, and the branching channel 24 is pushed towards the channel ring 251 so that it also abuts against the channel ring 251, thus achieving support for the branching channel 24. The fastener 26 is fixed in place. Compared to existing technologies, by controlling the tightening degree of the fastener 26, it can accommodate leader lines of different diameters, thus expanding its applicability. Moreover, after long-term use, the branching channel 24 will wear down due to friction with the leader line, resulting in an increased inner diameter and reduced fixing force. Therefore, compared to embodiment 3, this embodiment only requires pushing the fastener 26 a little tighter to compensate for the gap caused by wear, restore a firm lock, and greatly extend the product's service life. In addition, by controlling the pushing position and angle of the fastener 26 on the branching channel 24, experienced anglers can fine-tune the forking angle of the two leader lines to adapt to different water conditions and fish behavior. The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
