Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fishing reel rocker arm technology, specifically to a folding rocker arm for fishing reels. Background Technology

[0002] The rocker arm of a fishing reel is an important component, primarily used to control the retrieval and release of fishing line. Its working principle is that when the angler turns the rocker arm, the rocker arm shaft rotates, which in turn drives the spool of the fishing line through gear transmission and other mechanisms, thus achieving the retrieval or release of line. Different types of fishing reels may have different rocker arm transmission methods. For example, spinning reels use the rocker arm to drive the line winding mechanism, smoothly winding the fishing line onto the reel.

[0003] Chinese patent CN208692112U discloses a folding rocker arm for fishing reels. When folding, the sliding locking sleeve slides to the limiting step position of the handle cover, and then the handle is rotated to fold inward. At the same time, the end face of the locking sleeve abuts against the handle and the positioning body under the pressure of the compression spring, thereby positioning the handle. The folded fishing reel rocker arm is small in size and easy to carry.

[0004] The above solution reduces the size of the swing arm by removing the handle limit and allowing the handle to swing. However, since the swing arm itself has a certain length, even when it is in a swingable state, its length is still relatively long, making it inconvenient to store. In addition, the handwheel on the swing arm will also form a protrusion, further increasing the space occupied.

[0005] Therefore, this utility model provides a folding rocker arm for fishing reels to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a folding rocker arm for fishing reels, which solves the problem that the rocker arm itself has a certain length, and even when it is in a swinging state, its length is still too long, which makes it inconvenient to store. In addition, the handwheel on the rocker arm will also form a protrusion, further increasing the space occupied.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0008] A folding rocker arm for fishing reels includes a first rocker arm, a second rocker arm, a connecting post, and a handle. The first rocker arm has a rotating groove, and a fixing block is fixedly connected in the rotating groove. One end of the second rocker arm is rotatably connected to a connecting sleeve, and the connecting sleeve is detachably installed on the fixing block. The first rocker arm is provided with a limiting component for limiting the rotation of the second rocker arm, and the second rocker arm is in a folded state and an unfolded state through the limiting component. The other end of the second rocker arm is provided with a connecting component for connecting to the handle, and the distance between the handle and the second rocker arm is adjusted through the connecting component.

[0009] Preferably, the fixing block has a first through hole, the connecting sleeve has a second through hole, the rotating groove is provided with a connecting bolt, and one end of the connecting bolt passes through the first through hole and the second through hole in sequence and is threadedly connected to a third nut.

[0010] Preferably, the limiting component includes a sliding groove formed on the first rocker arm and a limiting slot formed on the second rocker arm. A limiting rod is slidably connected in the sliding groove. One end of the limiting rod matches the limiting slot, and the other end of the limiting rod is fixedly connected to a push-pull block, which passes through the sliding groove and extends to the outside of the sliding groove.

[0011] Preferably, a spring and a holding block are fixedly connected to the push-pull block, and one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove.

[0012] Preferably, the connecting assembly includes a first nut embedded in the second rocker arm, the first nut having a screw threadedly connected to it, and one end of the screw being fixedly connected to the handle.

[0013] Preferably, a second nut is threaded onto the screw, and the second nut is located between the first rocker arm and the handle.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] 1. By adopting a segmented rotating and folding structure of the first and second rocker arms, the second rocker arm can rotate 180 degrees and form a Z-shaped fit with the first rocker arm. Compared with traditional folding rocker arms, the overall length is further shortened. The handle can be adjusted to be in close contact with the second rocker arm through the screw assembly, eliminating the extra space occupied by the handle protrusion. This solves the problem that traditional rocker arms are still inconvenient to store after folding due to their length and protrusion.

[0016] 2. The spring-supported limiting rod and limiting slot work together to quickly fix the second rocker arm in its extended and retracted state. The spring force ensures the stability of the limiting rod after it is positioned, preventing it from loosening during use or storage. The grip block allows users to quickly push and pull the limiting rod, and the distance between the handle and the second rocker arm can be freely adjusted by the screw and the first nut, which can accommodate anglers with different hand shapes and optimize grip comfort and rotational power efficiency.

[0022] The following will refer to the attached reference. Figures 1 to 4 The various embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical principles of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0023] A folding rocker arm for fishing reels includes a first rocker arm 1, a second rocker arm 2, a connecting post 3, and a handle 8. The first rocker arm 1 has a rotating groove 4, and a fixing block 5 is fixedly connected in the rotating groove 4. One end of the second rocker arm 2 is rotatably connected to a connecting sleeve 6, and the connecting sleeve 6 can be detachably installed on the fixing block 5.

[0024] The connecting post 3 is fixedly installed on the first rocker arm 1, and the connecting post 3 is a square rod, which allows the first rocker arm 1 to be connected to the transmission structure in the fishing reel through the connecting post 3, so that the first rocker arm 1 can apply rotational driving force to the transmission structure through the connecting post 3.

[0025] In this embodiment, the fixing block 5 has a first through hole 13, the connecting sleeve 6 has a second through hole 14, and the rotating groove 4 is provided with a connecting bolt 11. One end of the connecting bolt 11 passes through the first through hole 13 and the second through hole 14 in sequence and is threadedly connected to a third nut 12.

[0026] The connecting sleeve 6 is designed with a groove that matches the fixing block 5. When installing the second rocker arm 2, the connecting sleeve 6 needs to be installed on the fixing block 5 through the groove, and the first through hole 13 and the second through hole 14 should be aligned. Then, one end of the connecting bolt 11 is passed through the first through hole 13 and the second through hole 14 and the third nut 12 is installed. The connection between the fixing block 5 and the connecting sleeve 6 is completed with the help of the connecting bolt 11 and the third nut 12.

[0027] In this embodiment, the first rocker arm 1 is provided with a limiting component for limiting the rotation of the second rocker arm 2, and the second rocker arm 2 is formed into a retracted state and an extended state through the limiting component. The limiting component includes a sliding groove 15 formed on the first rocker arm 1 and a limiting slot 20 formed on the second rocker arm 2. A limiting rod 16 is slidably connected in the sliding groove 15. One end of the limiting rod 16 matches the limiting slot 20, and the other end of the limiting rod 16 is fixedly connected to a push-pull block 18, which passes through the sliding groove 15 and extends to the outside of the sliding groove 15.

[0028] When the second rocker arm 2 needs to be folded and stored, the push-pull block 18 needs to move the limiting rod 16 within the sliding groove 15, and pull one end of the limiting rod 16 out of the limiting slot 20 to release the rotation limitation of the second rocker arm 2 on the connecting sleeve 6. Then, rotate the second rocker arm 2 on the connecting sleeve 6 so that the second rocker arm 2 rotates 180 degrees, forming a Z-shaped structure with the first rocker arm 1 and the second rocker arm 2. After the rotation is completed, insert the limiting rod 16 into the limiting slot 20 to limit the rotation of the second rocker arm 2.

[0029] Among them, a spring 17 and a holding block 19 are fixedly connected to the push-pull block 18, and one end of the spring 17 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 15.

[0030] The spring 17 supports the push-pull block 18, ensuring the stability of the limit rod 16 after it is inserted into the limit slot 20. The holding block 19 makes it convenient for the user to push and pull the push-pull block 18.

[0031] In this embodiment, the other end of the second rocker arm 2 is provided with a connecting component for connecting the handle 8, and the distance between the handle 8 and the second rocker arm 2 is adjusted through the connecting component.

[0032] The connecting component includes a first nut 9 embedded in the second rocker arm 2, a screw 7 threadedly connected to the first nut 9, and one end of the screw 7 fixedly connected to the handle 8.

[0033] According to the user's needs, the screw 7 can be rotated by the handle 8, and the distance between the handle 8 and the second rocker arm 2 can be adjusted. When the second rocker arm 2 is in the retracted state, the handle 8 can be continuously moved to the position of contact with the second rocker arm 2, which can reduce the space occupied by the second rocker arm 2 and the handle 8 in the retracted state.

[0034] A second nut 10 is threaded onto the screw 7. The second nut 10 is located between the first rocker arm 1 and the handle 8. After the screw 7 is rotated and adjusted, the second nut 10 is helically moved to rest against the second rocker arm 2.
