Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a cylindrical skirt with fins for lures, which utilizes the elasticity of the tube itself to enable universal use with lures of different sizes, and to a fin structure that improves fishing results. [Background technology]
[0002] Lures include metal jigs made from materials such as lead and tungsten, which are designed to increase casting distance and dive quickly.
[0003] The invention of Patent Document 1 involves placing a folded cover over a lure, and also includes a tail fin, but the fin structure is not particularly designed to allow for fin movement.It is not cylindrical, and does not utilize the elasticity of the tube itself to be universally usable for lures of different sizes.
[0004] The invention of Patent Document 2 is a cylindrical cover that is placed over a lure and whose design can be changed depending on the fishing conditions. The cover does not have fins. Furthermore, the cover is not a closed cylindrical cover, and the cover is not attached to the lure by the elasticity of the cylindrical cover itself.
[0005] The device in Patent Document 3 has a detachable outer skin that can be changed depending on the type of fish, weather, and fishing time, but it does not have fins attached to the outer skin.
[0006] The invention of Patent Document 4 relates to a lure and a method for manufacturing the same, and does not have fins.
[0007] The invention of Patent Document 5 involves attaching a pattern body to the trunk of the lure body in a detachable manner, and although it may have fins, it does not include the inventive components of the fin structure. Furthermore, it is not versatile enough to be attached to lures of different sizes.
[0008] The invention of Patent Document 6 relates to an artificial tail fin skirt that is placed over a lure, which has a cylindrical section made of elastic material and a section shaped like a tail fin of a small fish integrally formed on it, and is detachable from the lure, but the invention does not specify the structure of the artificial tail fin. Furthermore, there is no inventive element that allows the tail fin to be cut with scissors to change its shape as needed to improve fishing results depending on the situation.
[0009] The device in Patent Document 7 is a cylindrical part made of elastic material with at least one of the four shapes of small fish fins (pectoral fin, pelvic fin, dorsal fin, and anal fin) integrally formed, and can be attached and detached to a lure, but it does not have the inventive element of an artificial fin structure.Furthermore, it does not have the inventive element of being able to change the shape of the fin by cutting it with scissors as needed.
[0010] The inventions and devices described in the above-mentioned prior patent documents all have significantly different technical configurations and application effects from the present invention. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0011] [Patent Document 1] US Patent Document US-A1-004429482 [Patent Document 2] Korean Patent KR-B1-002186262 [Patent Document 3] Public Practical Application Showa 54-94778 [Patent Document 4] Unexamined Patent Publication No. 57-2630 [Patent Document 5] Patent Publication No. 2003-210074 [Patent Document 6] Utility model registration number 3242507 [Patent Document 7] Utility model registration number 3243047 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0012] Unlike actual small fish, which can move their fins autonomously, the fins, which are molded integrally from the same rubber material as the tubular part that covers the lure, cannot move autonomously. In other words, they can only be moved by moving the lure from the reel, or by water currents, water pressure, etc. Under these conditions, it is not easy to increase fishing success by making the fins, which are integrally molded with a lure skirt having a cylindrical portion, move in a way that mimics the fin movements of the small fish that the target fish prey on. In addition to moving the lure, we would like to solve the problem of making the artificial fins move in a way that mimics the movements of actual small fish, thereby increasing fishing success, by making it possible to precisely respond to the conditions of the fishing spot, such as water flow and water pressure. Furthermore, we would like to be able to make the fins move in a unique way to attract the target fish.
[0013] Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing a plurality of types of lure skirts with inexpensive rubber or silicone rubber fins, without having to prepare many types of expensive lures to use depending on the conditions of the fishing spot, and to provide versatility to the finned skirts so that they can be attached to lures of different sizes so that they can be used depending on the conditions of the fishing spot. [Means for solving the problem]
[0014] A lure skirt made of rubber is formed integrally with at least one of a cylindrical portion to be placed over a lure and a caudal fin-shaped portion, a dorsal fin-shaped portion, a pelvic fin-shaped portion, a pectoral fin-shaped portion, and anal fin-shaped portion, each of which is composed of a plurality of rod-shaped portions of a predetermined thickness and a membrane thinner than the rod-shaped portions connecting the rod-shaped portions and the rod-shaped portions to the cylindrical portion, representing the shape of a small fish that is the target of fishing. The skirt is designed to be removable by cutting the membrane or rod-shaped portion with paper scissors to change the shape of each fin. The skirt can be removed from the lure and attached to other lures of different dimensions within its elastically deformable range by stretching the cylindrical portion and pressing it against the lure with friction, allowing for versatile use. The cross-sectional shape of the rod-shaped portion is not limited and may be any shape, such as approximately circular or approximately rectangular. The thickness of the rod-shaped portion means the thickness in the direction of the thickness of the coating.
[0015] The rubber material may be silicone rubber. The rod-shaped portion of the fin may be gradually tapered toward the tip, and the thickness of the membrane portion may be smaller than the thickness of the bone, and may be approximately the same thickness toward the tip.
[0016] When cutting the film for use, the rod-shaped portion may be used as a guide to cut parallel to the film.
[0017] When the caudal fin-shaped portions are integrally molded, the upper caudal fin portion may have the plurality of rod-shaped portions biased to one side of the membrane with respect to the skins arranged in a straight line above and below the pair of caudal fin-shaped portions, and the lower caudal fin portion may have the plurality of rod-shaped portions biased to the opposite side of the membrane from the upper side.
[0018] When the skirt having the caudal fin-shaped portion is attached to the lure, the caudal fin-shaped portion may be attached by rotating it at any angle relative to the lure, rather than being attached vertically.
[0019] The rear end of the cylindrical portion on the rear hook side may be closed, and if necessary, may be cut off with scissors to provide a hole and expose the rear hook.
[0020] It is preferable that the inner diameter of the rear end of the cylindrical portion becomes smaller more rapidly toward the rear end on the rear hook side than that of the portion ahead of it. [Effects of the Invention]
[0021] If you were to change to an appropriate lure depending on the conditions of the fishing spot and the fish you are catching in order to increase your catch, you would have to stock up on a large number of expensive lures, but if you prepare a variety of rubber skirts with fins and select the one that is appropriate for the conditions of the fishing spot and put it on the lure, you can increase your catch at a low cost.
[0022] The skirt with the fin can be used not only with a specific lure but also with other lures of different dimensions within the range of elastic deformation, which allows for greater fishing results while further reducing costs. Furthermore, since the skirt is attached to the lure using the elastic force of the cylindrical portion itself, the surface of the skirt is smooth, and the fin is molded integrally thereto, allowing for smooth and natural fin movement. Rubber materials include, but are not limited to, natural rubber, nitrile rubber, fluororubber, and many other materials.
[0023] Unlike actual small fish, the fins on the skirt attached to the lure cannot move autonomously; they only move passively when the lure is moved, or due to the flow of water, water pressure, etc. However, by using the materials described above to create the fin structure described above, that is, by making the fin out of multiple rod-shaped parts and a membrane connecting them and connecting them to the tubular part, instead of a specific rod part protruding and moving, the multiple rod-shaped parts move in balance, and as the fin moves like an actual small fish, it also moves slightly, which attracts the target fish and greatly increases the catch.
[0024] Furthermore, the fins can be cut to change their shape or cut into slits depending on the conditions of the fishing spot, such as the water flow and pressure. This changes the force that the fins receive from the water, making it possible to finely adjust the movement of the fins to suit the conditions at the spot, thereby attracting target fish and increasing catches.
[0025] The membrane and rods connecting the fin rods can be cut with paper scissors to change the shape of the fin, allowing for optimal fin shape depending on the fishing conditions, further increasing catches. Cutting the fins is extremely convenient, as it can be done with paper scissors, a tool commonly used in fishing. Silicone rubber is also an ideal material for durability, as it is water-resistant and weather-resistant. Furthermore, rubber's softness allows the fins to create biological vibrations, making it easy to attract target fish.
[0026] If the rod-shaped portion is gradually tapered toward the tip and the thickness of the membrane is less than that of the bone and remains roughly the same toward the tip, the fin will move flexibly in the water, effectively luring target fish when fishing. The base side of the rod-shaped portion, i.e., the cylindrical portion side, is strong against bending forces, while the tip side is relatively weak against bending forces, and the rod-shaped portions of the above form are connected by a thinner, uniform membrane portion which is also connected to the cylindrical portion, so the movement of the fin is extremely flexibly and creates a subtle wave, making it easy to attract target fish when fishing. Furthermore, if a roughly spherical ball is integrally formed at the tip of the rod-shaped portion, the center of gravity of the rod-shaped portion can be shifted outward, allowing the fin to move even more flexibly.
[0027] When cutting the fin membrane for use, cutting parallel to the rod-like portion as a guide makes it easier to cut, resulting in a fin with a regular shape.
[0028] When making a skirt with an artificial tail fin by integrally molding the tail fin-shaped portion, the upper tail fin portion has the multiple rod-shaped portions biased to one side of the membrane that is arranged in a straight line above and below, and the lower tail fin portion has the multiple rod-shaped portions biased to the opposite side of the membrane from the upper rod-shaped portions. This makes it easier for the fins to move under water pressure, and the upper and lower fins can also be moved in different directions, making it easier to attract target fish.
[0029] When the skirt having the caudal fin-shaped portion is attached to a lure, if the caudal fin-shaped portion is attached and used by rotating it at any angle rather than vertically relative to the lure, the water pressure and water current will cause the caudal fin to move in a unique way, which can attract the target fish.
[0030] When a target fish bites a lure, it may make a kiss bite, touching it with its mouth to determine whether it is bait or not. To prevent this from being identified as a lure, the rear eye is covered with a cone-shaped lid at the rear end of the cylindrical part, which can be cut off with scissors to expose the rear eye as needed.
[0031] If the rear end of the cylindrical part on the rear hook side has a section where the inner diameter is suddenly smaller than the section ahead of it, the cylindrical part at that point will be pressed by a strong elastic force against the lure, and a strong frictional force will be generated, which has the effect of making it difficult for the skirt to come off even when subjected to water pressure and water current, for example, when jerking.In addition, while making the inner diameter small along the entire length of the cylindrical part makes it difficult to insert and attach, in the above case it can have both functions of making it easy to insert and attach and also difficult to come off.

[0033] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The embodiment is not limited to this embodiment, and can be appropriately modified within the scope of the present invention.
[0034] FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram of an embodiment in which a skirt having an artificial tail fin for a lure according to the present invention is attached to a lure. The lure 1 has a front eye 3 and an eye 2 on the head side. The opposite side has a rear eye 4, to which a hook 5 is detachably attached via a rear hook connection ring 18. A skirt with an artificial tail fin integrally molded with the tubular portion 6 is attached to the lure 1. The skirt is integrally molded with the artificial tail fin, which consists of the tubular portion 6, multiple rod-shaped portions 7, and multiple membrane portions 8. Made of rubber or silicone rubber, the skirt is not attached using any other attachment device; rather, the tubular portion 6 itself stretches and is pressed against the lure, allowing it to conform to the lure's shape through friction. It can be attached to lures of different dimensions within its elasticity limits. The cross-sectional shape of the rod-shaped portion 7 is approximately round, approximately 2 mm thick at the base of the tubular portion 6 and approximately 1 mm thick at the outer tip, gradually tapering. The membrane is uniformly 0.5 mm thick throughout. The cross-sectional shape of the rod-shaped portion is not limited and may be approximately rectangular, etc. The thickness refers to the thickness in the direction roughly equivalent to the thickness of the membrane.
[0035] The front end 9 of the skirt may be located at any position on the lure. At the rear end of the skirt there is a rear skirt hole 10 through which the lure eye 4 is exposed to the outside. The tail fin is not attached so that the lure 1 becomes longer rearward from the rear end of the lure 1 indicated by the skirt rear hole 10, but is formed integrally with the outer periphery of the tubular part 6 having the rear end indicated by the skirt hole 10 as its end, so that the lure 1 with the tail fin attached does not become too long rearward, making it easier to catch fish. In this embodiment, the lure skirt is attached so that each caudal fin is positioned above and below the lure 1, but the position of each fin can be freely changed by rotating it as shown by the rotation arrow F. For example, if it is rotated 90 degrees, each fin will be positioned horizontally relative to the lure 1. Rather than first positioning each caudal fin above and below and then rotating it, each caudal fin may be inserted from the beginning so that it is at the desired angle.
[0036] FIG. 2 shows an embodiment of a skirt having a caudal fin, in which (A) is a front view, (B) is a left side view of the end surface 9 of the cylindrical portion, and (C) is a right side view of the end surface 10 of the cylindrical portion. Both (B) and (C) are drawn in a circular shape, but the material is elastic rubber or one type of rubber, silicone rubber, and when attached to a lure, it conforms to the cross-sectional shape of the lure. The rod-shaped portion 7 has a generally round cross section, and gradually tapers from a diameter of about 2 mm at the base D to a diameter of about 1 mm at the tip E. The thickness of the coating 8 is 0.5 mm, and is uniform from the base to the tip.
[0037] The rod-shaped portion 7, the film 8 and the cylindrical portion 6 are integrally molded by compression molding, but other methods such as injection molding and extrusion molding may also be used. Since this artificial tail fin is constructed in this way, by moving the lure from the reel via the fishing line, or by the water current under water pressure, the tail fin moves flexibly, allowing the target fish to be attracted.
[0038] FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an embodiment of the lure skirt having an artificial tail fin according to the present invention, with a portion of the coating cut away. A portion of the membrane 8 is cut with paper scissors to form a membrane excision 11. A membrane excision 12 is formed on both the upper and lower portions of the pair of caudal fins, but sometimes only one side is excised 11. This changes the shape of the fin. The part of the membrane to be cut, its size, and shape can be determined as appropriate depending on the conditions of the fishing spot. In this embodiment, the membrane cut-out portions 11 and 12 are formed by using the rod-shaped portion 7 as a guide and cutting the membrane 8 parallel to it.
[0039] As a result, by moving the lure 1, or by the water current under water pressure, the movement of the fins will be different from when the membrane-removed portions 11, 12 are not present, which may make it easier to attract the target fish. Also, rather than cutting and removing part of the membrane 8, simply making a slit will change the movement of the tail fin compared to when no slit is made, so this may be effective depending on the conditions of the fishing spot.
[0040] Figure 4 shows an embodiment in which part of the caudal fin has been removed by cutting the membrane or other part, thereby changing the shape of the caudal fin. (A) is a front view, (B) is a diagram showing the left end face of the tubular part, and (C) is a diagram showing the right end face of the tubular part. Compared to the embodiment shown in Figure 2, the rod-shaped portion 7 and membrane 8 located on the outside, away from the cylindrical portion 6, were cut and removed with paper scissors, leaving only the rod-shaped portion 7 and membrane 8 located on the inside. This changes the shape of the caudal fin. This changes the movement of the tail fin, making it easier to attract target fish depending on the conditions of the fishing spot. In this embodiment, the upper and lower portions of the caudal fin are cut off, but the cut off portions may be cut off asymmetrically as appropriate. Alternatively, the tip of the rod-shaped portion 7 away from the cavity 6 may be cut off up to the tip of the coating 8 to shorten the rod-shaped portion 7 for use, if necessary.
[0041] FIG. 5 shows an embodiment in which a lure skirt, in which the dorsal fin, pectoral fin, pelvic fin, and anal fin are integrally formed on the cylindrical portion 6, is attached to the lure. Each fin, i.e., dorsal fin 13, pectoral fin 14, pelvic fin 15, and anal fin 16, is made up of multiple rod-shaped sections 7 and a membrane 8 connecting the rod-shaped sections. The membrane 8 is molded integrally with the tubular section 6, and therefore the rod-shaped sections 7 and tubular section 6 are also connected by the membrane 8.
[0042] 2, the rod-shaped portion 7 of each fin has a substantially round cross section, with a diameter of about 2 mm at the base and a diameter of about 1 mm on the outside, gradually tapering outward, and the membrane 8 is 0.5 mm, which is smaller than the thickness of the rod-shaped portion 7 and is the same thickness from the base to the outside. Note that, as in other embodiments, the cross section of the rod-shaped portion 7 is not limited to being substantially round. All of the fins 13, 14, 15, and 16 may be integrally formed with the tubular portion 6, or one or more of the fins may be integrally formed. In the case of a lure skirt in which multiple fins are integrally formed, the fins other than the necessary ones may be cut off with paper scissors. The fins 13, 14, 15, and 16 may also be cut with the scissors to remove portions and change their shape, or to create slits. This allows the movement of each fin to be changed according to the conditions of the fishing spot, such as the water current and water pressure, thereby better attracting target fish. The function of the fin is the same as that explained in FIG. 2, and since it is composed of a rod-shaped portion 7 and a membrane 8, it moves smoothly to attract the target fish. A hook 17 may be attached to the front eye 3 via a detachable connecting ring 19 .
[0043] FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram of an embodiment of a skirt having an artificial tail fin in which upper and lower rod-like portions are arranged asymmetrically above and below. (A) is a front view, (B) is a view showing the left end face of the cylindrical portion, and (C) is a view showing the right end face of the cylindrical portion. (B) and (C) are drawn in an elliptical shape to represent the state when attached to a lure with an elliptical cross section. (D) is an explanatory diagram of the XX cross section of a normal embodiment. (E) is an explanatory diagram of an embodiment in which the arrangement of the rod-shaped portions is asymmetrical up and down. In the caudal fin on the upper side of the drawing, a rod-shaped portion 7(A) is formed on one side, that is, the left side, of the membrane 8(A), while in the caudal fin on the lower side of the drawing, a rod-shaped portion 7(B) is formed on the other side, that is, the right side, of the membrane 8(B).
[0044] As a result, the movement of the tail fin under water pressure and current is different from that in case (D), and the upper and lower tail fins move differently, resulting in a unique movement that attracts target fish. Of the three rod-shaped parts that make up each fin, the central rod-shaped part may be made slightly thicker than the other rod-shaped parts, which will also cause it to move differently from the caudal fin (D), causing the fin to move in a unique way depending on the conditions of the fishing spot, attracting the target fish.
[0045] 7A and 7B are diagrams showing another embodiment, in which (A) is a front view, (B) is a diagram showing the left end face of the cylindrical portion, and (C) is a diagram showing the right end face of the cylindrical portion. The rod-shaped portion 7 is integrated with the adjacent rod-shaped portion 7 at the tip, and a roughly spherical ball 20 is integrally formed at the tip, which shifts the center of gravity of the rod-shaped portion 7 toward the tip, making it easier to move the fin in the water. A similar roughly spherical ball may also be integrally formed at the tip of the rod-shaped portion in Figures 1 to 6. This provides the same effects as those described above in each embodiment. The shape of the ball 20 is not limited. The shape of the rod-like portion 7 is not limited, and may be shaped like an elongated insect or worm such as an earthworm or tapeworm. The fins are asymmetrical from top to bottom, but may be symmetrical.
[0046] FIG. 8 is an illustration of another embodiment of a skirt with an artificial tail fin for a lure. The rear end 6(A) of the cylindrical portion 6 on the rear eye 4 side is closed in a cone shape. This is to prevent the target fish from realizing that it is a lure. can be cut off with scissors to expose the rear eye 4 according to the conditions of the fishing spot, and the rear hook 5 can be connected thereto via a connecting ring 8. If the rear hook 5 is not connected, the hook is connected to the front eye 3 or the ventral eye 21.
[0047] FIG. 9 is an explanatory diagram of an embodiment that prevents the skirt from coming off while fishing. The cylindrical portion 6 is made up of a portion 6(C) where the inner diameter gradually decreases and a portion 6(B) where the inner diameter gradually decreases more sharply. The left side view illustrating the left end surface 9 is the same as FIG. 2(B), and the right side view illustrating the right side surface 10 is smaller than FIG. 2(C). This allows part 6(B) to be attached to the lure with stronger pressure than part 6(C), making the skirt less likely to come off even when jerking under water pressure or current. Also, since the inner diameter of the cylindrical part is not small along its entire length, it is easy to insert into the lure 1 and also makes it less likely to come off.
[0048] In addition, as is common to all the embodiments, it is desirable to prepare skirts with multiple types of artificial fins with different rubber hardness and select and use the appropriate one depending on the conditions of the fishing spot, such as water pressure and water current. This is because the hardness of the fins changes the way they move, which affects the fishing results.
[0049] The color of the skirt is not limited, but it is recommended to prepare various colors such as light black, gray, white, etc. and use them according to the conditions of the fishing spot, including the sunlight. This is because the effectiveness of attracting target fish changes depending on the color. In addition, by appropriately using a skirt with phosphorescent paint, fishing results can be improved.
