Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a lure. [Background technology]

[0002] The lure described in Patent Document 1 has a body, a guide shaft, and a weight. The body has a main body, a front rib, and a rear rib. The front rib is fixed to the inner surface of the main body. The rear rib is fixed to the inner surface of the main body behind the front rib.

[0003] The guide shaft is disposed between the front rib and the rear rib. Both ends of the guide shaft are supported by the front rib and the rear rib, respectively. The weight is disposed on the guide shaft so as to be movable along the guide shaft. The weight is disposed between the front rib and the rear rib.

[0004] In this type of lure, the front rib, the rear rib, the guide shaft, and the weight constitute a center-of-gravity moving structure. In the center-of-gravity moving structure, the weight moves forward and backward on the guide shaft and repeatedly comes into direct contact with the weight rib. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 4969297 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] In conventional lures, the weight repeatedly comes into contact with the rib, which can cause the rib to deform. In this case, it is difficult to stably move the weight along the guide shaft supported by the rib. In addition, if the width (thickness) of the rib is increased to avoid this, sink marks may appear on the exterior of the body, or the impact force may directly act on the body, affecting its durability.

[0007] The object of the present invention is to provide a lure that can stably operate the weight when the weight moves repeatedly back and forth. Another object of the present invention is to provide a lure that can be molded to have a uniform appearance and can maintain the durability of the main body. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] In accordance with a first aspect of the present invention, a lure includes a main body, a weight, a support portion, a guide portion, and an abutment member. The main body has a head at the front and a tail at the rear. The weight is disposed inside the main body. The support portion extends on the inner surface of the main body in a direction intersecting the front-rear direction. The guide portion is supported by the support portion and guides the weight in the front-rear direction. The weight abuts against the abutment member, and the abutment member contacts the main body.

[0009] In the lure of the present invention, when the weight is guided by the guide section and moves repeatedly in the forward and backward directions, the weight abuts against the abutment member without abutting against the support section that supports the guide shaft. Therefore, the posture of the guide shaft can be stably maintained. In other words, when the weight moves repeatedly in the forward and backward directions, the weight can be operated stably.

[0010] In addition, in the lure of the present invention, the impact force of the weight is not transmitted to the main body of the body via the support part as in the prior art, but is transmitted to the main body of the body via the abutting member. This eliminates the need to increase the width (thickness) of the support part, and allows the main body of the body to be molded uniformly without causing any inconvenience such as sink marks on its appearance, and the durability of the main body of the body can be maintained.

[0011] With regard to the second aspect of the present invention, the lure according to the first aspect is configured as follows: The main body has a wall surface including a contact portion that contacts the abutment member.

[0012] With respect to a third aspect of the present invention, the lure according to the first or second aspect is configured as follows: The abutting member has a groove portion that engages with the support portion.

[0013] With respect to the fourth aspect of the present invention, the lure according to the third aspect is configured as follows: The crossing direction is perpendicular to the front-rear direction. A gap is provided between the side surface of the support portion provided on the weight body side and the wall surface of the groove portion facing the side surface of the support portion.

[0014] With respect to the fifth aspect of the present invention, a lure according to any one of the second to fourth aspects is configured as follows. The main body has a first main body including a first joint surface and a second main body including a second joint surface joined to the first joint surface. The wall surface has a first contact portion provided on the first main body, a second contact portion provided on the second main body, and a first surface provided between the first contact portion and the second contact portion. The abutting member has a second surface facing the first surface. The second surface is disposed at a distance from the first surface.

[0015] With respect to a sixth aspect of the present invention, the lure according to any one of the first to fifth aspects further includes a biasing member. The biasing member biases the weight in either the front or rear direction.

[0016] With respect to a seventh aspect of the present invention, the lure according to any one of the first to sixth aspects is configured as follows: The support portion and the abutment member are disposed behind the weight. Effect of the Invention

[0017] According to the present invention, in a lure, the weight can be stably operated when the weight moves repeatedly back and forth. Also, in the lure, the durability of the main body can be improved. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0026] 1 is formed on the inner surface of the main body 11 in a state in which the first main body 15 and the second main body 17 are joined together. The support portion 13 extends on the inner surface of the main body 11 in a direction intersecting the front-rear direction.

[0027] As shown in FIG. 1, the support portion 13 has a first support portion 25 and a second support portion 27. The first support portion 25 is disposed in front of the weight body 5. The first support portion 25 is provided between an upper portion of the inner surface of the main body 11 and a lower portion of the inner surface of the main body 11, in front of the internal space S. The second support portion 27 is disposed behind the weight body 5. The second support portion 27 protrudes from the inner surface of the main body 11, in the rear of the internal space S.

[0028] In this embodiment, the first support portion 25 and the second support portion 27 are formed integrally with the main body 11. The first support portion 25 and the second support portion 27 may be formed as separate members from the main body 11 and attached to the main body 11.

[0029] As shown in FIG. 1, the weight 5 is disposed inside the main body 11. Specifically, the weight 5 is disposed in the internal space S. The weight 5 is supported so as to be movable in the front-rear direction relative to the guide portion 6. For example, the weight 5 has a weight main body 29 and a pair of mounting portions 31a, 31b. The weight main body 29 is disposed below the guide portion 6. The pair of mounting portions 31a, 31b are provided on an upper portion of the weight main body 29. The pair of mounting portions 31a, 31b are attached so as to be slidable in the front-rear direction relative to the guide portion 6.

[0030] As shown in Fig. 1, the guide portion 6 guides the weight 5 in the front-rear direction. The guide portion 6 is supported by a first support portion 25 and a second support portion 27. Specifically, the guide portion 6 extends in the front-rear direction in the internal space S. Both ends of the guide portion 6 are supported by the first support portion 25 and the second support portion 27, respectively.

[0031] 1 and 4, the abutment member 7 is disposed behind the weight body 5 inside the main body 11. Specifically, the abutment member 7 is disposed behind the weight body 29 of the weight body 5 in the internal space S, and engages with the second support portion 27. When the weight body 29 of the weight body 5 abuts against the abutment member 7, the abutment member 7 comes into contact with the rear wall surface 19 of the main body 11.

[0032] 3 and 4, the abutment member 7 has a main body portion 33, a groove portion 35, and a second surface 37. The rear surface of the weight main body 29 of the weight 5 abuts against the front surface of the main body portion 33. A first contact portion 21a of the rear wall surface 19 of the main body 11 and a second contact portion 21b of the rear wall surface 19 of the main body 11 contact against the rear surface 7a of the main body portion 33.

[0033] The groove portion 35 is provided in the main body portion 33. The groove portion 35 engages with the second support portion 27. In detail, the groove portion 35 is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the main body portion 33, and engages with the tip portion of the second support portion 27. By this engagement, the abutment member 7 is positioned relative to the main body 11 in the front-rear direction.

[0034] A front wall surface 35a of the groove 35 is disposed opposite a front surface 27a of the second support portion 27 provided on the weight 5 side. A first gap D1 is provided between the front wall surface 35a of the groove 35 and the front surface 27a of the second support portion 27.

[0035] Specifically, when the rear surface 7a of the main body portion 33 is in contact with the first contact portion 21a of the rear wall surface 19 of the body main body 11 and the second contact portion 21b of the rear wall surface 19 of the body main body 11, a first gap D1 is provided between the front wall surface 35a of the groove portion 35 and the front surface 27a of the second support portion 27.

[0036] 3 and 4, the second surface 37 forms a part of the rear surface 7a of the main body portion 33. When the first contact portion 21a of the main body 11 and the second contact portion 21b of the main body 11 are in contact with the rear surface 7a of the main body portion 33, the second surface 37 is formed between the first contact portion 21a and the second contact portion 21b on the rear surface 7a of the main body portion 33.

[0037] The second surface 37 faces the first surface 23 of the main body 11. The second surface 37 is disposed at a distance from the first surface 23. Specifically, when the rear surface 7a of the main body 33 is in contact with the first contact portion 21a of the main body 11 and the second contact portion 21b of the main body 11, a second gap D2 is provided between the first surface 23 and the second surface 37.

[0038] The first surface 23 and the second surface 37 may have any shape as long as the second gap D2 can be provided between the first surface 23 and the second surface 37. In this embodiment, as shown in Fig. 3, the first surface 23 is formed substantially concave and the second surface 37 is formed substantially flat when viewed from above the main body 11.

[0039] The biasing member 9 biases the weight 5 in either the front or rear direction. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the biasing member 9 is a coil spring. The biasing member 9 is disposed along the guide portion 6 in a compressed state between the mounting portion 31b at the rear of the weight 5 and the second support portion 27. In this way, the biasing member 9 biases the weight 5 forward.

[0040] In the lure 1 having the above-described configuration, as shown by the two-dot dashed lines in Figures 3 and 4, when the weight 5 moves rearward along the guide portion 6 and abuts against the front surface of the abutment member 7, the rear surface 7a of the abutment member 7 contacts the first and second contact portions 21a, 21b of the rear wall surface 19 of the main body 11.

[0041] In this state, a first gap D1 is provided between the front wall surface 35a of the groove portion 35 of the abutting member 7 and the front surface 27a of the second support portion 27. This makes it possible to prevent deformation of the second support portion 27 even if the weight 5 abuts against the abutting member 7. In other words, the posture of the guide shaft can be stably maintained, and the weight 5 can be stably operated along the guide portion 6.

[0042] Furthermore, the impact force of weight 5 is not directly transmitted to main body 11 via support 13 as in the prior art, but is transmitted to main body 11 via abutment member 7. This eliminates the need to increase the width (thickness) of support 13, and allows the exterior to be molded without causing problems such as sink marks in the exterior of main body 11, thereby maintaining the durability of main body 11.

[0043] Moreover, by engaging the groove portion 35 of the abutment member 7 with the second support portion 27 of the body 3, the abutment member 7 can be easily positioned with respect to the body 3. Furthermore, by forming the main body 11 from the first main body 15 and the second main body 17, the weight 5 and the guide portion 6 can be easily assembled into the internal space S of the body 3.

[0044] Furthermore, when the rear surface 7a of the abutment member 7 is in contact with the first and second contact portions 21a, 21b of the rear wall surface 19 of the body main body 11, a second gap D2 is provided between the first surface 23 of the body main body 11 and the second surface 37 of the abutment member 7.

[0045] This limits the contact of the abutting member 7 with the first bonding surface 15a of the first body 15 and the second bonding surface 17a of the second body 17 even when the first body 15 and the second body 17 are bonded together. This makes it possible to stably maintain the bonded state of the first bonding surface 15a of the first body 15 and the second bonding surface 17a of the second body 17. [Explanation of symbols]
