Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] This invention relates to a fishhook remover, primarily used in fishing to remove hooks from hooked fish. [Background technology]
[0002] Generally, when fishing, there is a task of removing the hook from a fish that has been hooked. Most fishhooks have a barb at the tip, and when removing a barbed hook, the barb gets caught and makes it difficult to remove (pull out). This tendency is particularly noticeable with large fish that have strong hard parts such as bones.
[0003] Therefore, the applicant devised a fishhook remover 1 which "comprises a cylindrical main body 2 and a movable body 3 which is attached to the main body 2 so as to be movable relative to the main body 2 in the forward and backward directions and has a hook portion 7 at its front end. The movable body 3 is made of wire. The hook portion 7 is formed by bending the front end of the wire. The tip portion 7a of the hook portion 7 is inclined toward the rear end at an angle of between 0° and 45° relative to the radial direction of the movable body 3" (see, for example, Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2025-073558 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0005] The fishhook remover 1 described in Patent Document 1 can easily slide between the fishhook and the fish or the like to hold the fishhook even if the fishhook is stuck in an awkward position or deeply. However, if the fishhook is stuck in an awkward position or deeply, a large force is required to pull the fishhook held by the hook portion 7 out of the fish or the like. In this case, there is a risk that excess force will (accidentally) be applied to the movable body 3 of the fishhook remover 1 (relative movement in the front-to-rear direction between the main body tube 2 and the movable body). In such a case, the fishhook held by the hook portion 7 may be pinched by the front end of the main body tube 2 and be bent or broken.
[0006] Furthermore, in the fishhook remover 1 described in Patent Document 1, when the hook portion 7 is hooked onto a fishhook stuck in a fish or the like and the moving body is moved to hold the fishhook with the hook portion, there is a risk that the tip of the fishhook may get stuck (be wedged) in the gap between the main tube and the moving body. In this case, if the moving body is moved quickly or gripped with a large force, the tip of the fishhook may get stuck too far (deep) in the gap between the main tube and the moving body, making it impossible to remove the fishhook from the main tube. Therefore, these are problems that the present invention must solve. [Means for solving the problem]
[0007] The present invention was devised in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and the invention of claim 1 is a fishhook remover comprising a cylindrical main body, a movable body attached within the main body so as to be movable along the front-to-back direction and having a fishhook holding portion at its front end, and a lever portion for moving the movable body in the front-to-back direction relative to the main body, wherein the front end of the main body is provided with a holding recess which forms a gap between the front end of the fishhook holding portion and the movable body when the lever portion moves the movable body toward the rear end. The invention of claim 2 is a fishhook remover as described in claim 1, characterized in that the holding recess is configured to hold the fishhook between the front end of the fishhook holding portion and the holding recess when the lever portion moves the movable body toward the rear end. The invention of claim 3 is a fishhook remover as described in claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the front end of the main body tube is provided with an accommodating recess for accommodating the rear end of the fishhook holding portion when the movable body is moved toward the rear end by the lever portion, and the holding recess is configured to form a gap between the front end of the fishhook holding portion and the rear end of the fishhook holding portion when the rear end of the fishhook holding portion is accommodated in the accommodating recess. The invention of claim 4 is a fishhook remover according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the movable body is made of wire, the fishhook holding portion is formed by bending the front end of the wire into a hook shape, and the holding recess is configured to form a gap between the hook-shaped inside of the fishhook holding portion and the holding recess when the movable body is moved toward the rear end by the lever portion. The invention of claim 5 is a fishhook remover comprising a cylindrical main body, a movable body attached within the main body so as to be movable along the front-to-back direction and having a fishhook holding portion at its front end, and a lever portion for moving the movable body in the front-to-back direction relative to the main body, wherein an inhibitor member is attached to the front end of the main body, which inhibits the fishhook held between the front end of the fishhook holding portion and the front end of the main body from getting into the gap between the main body and the movable body by moving the movable body toward the rear end using the lever portion. A sixth aspect of the present invention provides the fishhook remover according to the fifth aspect, characterized in that the restraining member is attached to the inside of the front end side of the main body tube. The invention of claim 7 is a fishhook remover as described in claim 5 or 6, characterized in that the movable body is made of wire, and the fishhook holding portion is formed by bending the front end of the wire into a shape that does not interfere with the suppressing member when the movable body is moved to either the front end or the rear end by the lever portion. The invention of claim 8 is a fishhook remover as described in claim 7, characterized in that the front end edge of the main body tube is provided with an accommodating recess for accommodating the rear end of the fishhook holding part when the movable body is moved toward the rear end by the lever part, and the suppression member is attached so as to be positioned inside the curved part of the fishhook holding part. [Effects of the Invention]
[0008] By using the device of claim 1, when the movable body is moved toward the rear end using the lever portion, a gap is formed between the front end of the hook holding portion and the holding recess, thereby preventing damage to the fishhook. By adopting the device of claim 2, when the movable body is moved toward the rear end by the lever portion, the fishhook can be held by the front end portion of the fishhook holding portion and the holding recess. By using the device of claim 3, when the movable body is moved toward the rear end using the lever portion, the rear end of the fishhook holding portion is accommodated in the accommodation recess, while damage to the fishhook can be prevented by the gap between the front end of the fishhook holding portion and the holding recess. By adopting the device of claim 4, the fishhook can be held in the gap between the hook-shaped inner side of the fishhook holding part and the holding recess. By using the device of claim 5, the lever portion moves the movable body toward the rear end to hold the fishhook between the front end of the hook holding portion and the front end of the main body tube, and the suppression member can prevent the fishhook from getting into the gap between the main body tube and the movable body that occurs when the lever portion moves the movable body toward the rear end to hold the fishhook between the front end of the hook holding portion and the front end of the main body tube. By adopting the invention of claim 6, it is possible to prevent the fishhook from getting into the gap between the main body tube and the moving body, which occurs when the fishhook gets into the front end side of the main body tube. By using the device of claim 7, the fishhook holding portion does not come into contact with the suppressing member regardless of whether the movable body is moved to the front end side or the rear end side by the lever portion. By using the device of claim 8, when the movable body is moved toward the rear end by the lever portion, the fishhook holding portion will not be impacted by the suppressing member even when the rear end of the fishhook holding portion is housed in the housing recess.

[0010] [First embodiment] Hereinafter, a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0011] <Configuration> 1 to 3 are drawings showing a fishhook remover 1 according to a first embodiment of the present invention. This fishhook remover 1 is a tool (hook remover, hook releaser) used to remove (pull out) a fishhook (hook) H that has been caught in a fish or other object caught in fishing such as lure fishing. The fishhook remover 1 comprises a hollow cylindrical main body 2, a rod-shaped movable body 3 that is movable axially (along the front-to-back direction) within the main body 2, a handle 5 serving as a grip provided at the other end of the main body 2, and a lever 6 that moves with the movable body 3 and protrudes radially outward from the main body 2.
[0012] For ease of explanation, the length direction (axial direction) of the main body tube 2 is defined as the front-rear direction, and the other end of the main body tube 2 where the handle portion 5 is provided is defined as the rear, and the opposite side is defined as the front.
[0013] The main body tube 2 includes a cylindrical front end member 2a attached to the most forward end side in a side view and having a total of four cross-shaped notches formed at its front end, a cylindrical main body member 2b extending from the front end member 2a to the handle portion 5, and a cover body 2c fitted over the front end member 2a to connect the front end member 2a and the main body member 2b. Of the four notches provided in the front end member 2a, a pair of opposing storage notches (storage recesses) 2d, 2e and the other pair of holding notches (holding recesses) 2f, 2g. As shown in Figures 1(A), 1(B), 2(A), and 2(B), the pair of storage notches 2d, 2e are longer (deeper) toward the rear than the holding notches 2f, 2g, and one storage notch 2d is cut out longer (deeper) toward the rear than the other storage notch 2e. These pair of accommodating notches 2d, 2e and the pair of retaining notches 2f, 2g are cut out in a straight line from the front end of the front end member 2a toward the rear, and the pair of accommodating notches 2d, 2e and the pair of retaining notches 2f, 2g are positioned perpendicular to each other.
[0014] Each of the retaining notches 2f, 2g is a portion into which the curved portion (bent portion) H1 or the body portion (shank portion) H2 of the fishhook H is fitted, and is formed in a concave arc shape approximately equal to the outer diameter of the wire of the curved portion H1 and body portion H2 of a so-called thin-shank type fishhook H generally used in lure fishing, etc. As will be described later, during use, by engaging any portion of the fishhook H with the hook portion 7 of the movable body 3 and then retracting the movable body 3, the engaged portion engages with each of the retaining notches 2f, 2g, and is positioned and held (fixed). When the movable body 3 is moved rearward (retracted) relative to the main body tube 2, the fishhook H fixed by the pair of retaining notches 2f, 2g is clamped in the front-rear direction by the front end of the movable body 3 (described later) and the groove bottoms of each of the retaining notches 2f, 2g, and is held in place to prevent it from coming off.
[0015] The storage notches 2d, 2e are configured to prevent the hook portion 7 from coming into contact with the front edge of the main body tube 2 when the movable body 3 moves back and forth within the main body tube 2, and to allow the hook portion 7 to fit and be accommodated. Therefore, the storage notches 2d, 2e are formed with a width and length that allows the hook portion 7 to move along these storage notches 2d, 2e. Here, one storage notch 2d is cut out longer (deeper) in the front-to-rear direction than the other storage notch 2e in order to fit and accommodate a first bent portion 7c of the hook portion 7, which will be described later.
[0016] A pair of elongated holes 2k that are long in the front-rear direction are provided near the rearward position of the main body member 2b of the main body tube 2 for attaching the lever portion 6 to the moving body 3. As shown in Fig. 3(A), the length of the elongated holes 2k in the front-rear direction limits the range of movement (movement distance A) of the moving body 3 relative to the main body tube 2 in the front-rear direction.
[0017] The movable body 3 is a linear body made of a wire rod or the like made of a metal such as stainless steel, and is attached within the main body tube 2 so as to be relatively movable in the front-rear direction. A substantially U-shaped hook portion 7 is bent and formed at the front end of the movable body 3. An opening 3a is provided between the tip of the hook portion 7 and the movable body 3. The hook portion 7 corresponds to the fishhook holding portion of the movable body 3, and is formed by bending the front end of the movable body 3 into a hook shape (by bending it at multiple points). The hook portion 7 includes a tip portion 7a serving as an engagement portion at the end on the opening 3a side, a bent portion 7b bent in a dogleg shape at the front end side in the front-rear direction, a first bent portion 7c formed by bending the base end side of the bent portion 7b inward (toward the center) (bent in a dogleg shape), and a second bent portion 7d formed by bending the base end side of the first bent portion 7c outward in a dogleg shape.
[0018] The opening 3a is a space for inserting the fishhook H into the bent portion 7b of the hook portion 7 to lock the fishhook H. The inner circumferential side of the bent portion 7b corresponds to the abutment portion 3b, which is the portion that abuts from the front when the fishhook H is locked. Furthermore, when the movable body 3 is moved rearward relative to the main body tube 2, the first bent portion 7c is configured to fit into one of the housing notches 2d of the main body tube 2 so that it is not prevented from moving back beyond the front end of the front end member 2a. At the same time, when the movable body 3 is moved rearward relative to the main body tube 2, the tip portion 7a is configured to fit into the other housing notch 2e of the main body tube 2 so that it is not prevented from moving back beyond the front end of the front end member 2a.
[0019] Furthermore, the movable body 3 has a shaft 3c that is long in the front-rear direction and is inserted into the main body tube 2, and a connecting member 3d that is attached to the rear end of the shaft 3c and connects the movable body 3 to the lever portion 6. The hook portion 7 is formed integrally with the front end of the shaft 3c by bending it. The connecting member 3d is connected to the insertion shaft 6a of the lever portion 6 that is inserted into the pair of elongated holes 2k in the main body tube 2, and integrates the movable body 3 with the lever portion 6.
[0020] Here, the bent portion 7b of the hook portion 7 is formed by bending (bending) the base end side of the tip portion 7a inward by about 100°. The inner peripheral side of this bent portion 7b is formed in a concave arc shape that is approximately equal to the outer diameter of the wire material of the curved portion H1 and body portion H2 of a so-called thin-shaft fishhook H, which is generally used in lure fishing, etc. The base end side of this bent portion 7b is a straight line portion 7e, and the base end side of this straight line portion 7e is bent (bent) inward by about 60° to form a first bent portion 7c, and the position on the base end side of this first bent portion 7c is bent (bent) outward by about 60° to form a second bent portion 7d. Therefore, when the movable body 3 moves back and forth within the main body tube 2, the portion of the hook portion 7 from the rear end side of the bent portion 7b of the hook portion 7 to the rear end of the second curved portion 7d is fitted into and accommodated in one of the accommodating notches 2d, and the tip side of the bent portion 7b of this hook portion 7 is fitted into and accommodated in the other accommodating notch 2e.
[0021] The movable body 3 is also biased forward by a movable body spring 8, which is a coil spring serving as an elastic member attached to the rear end of the connecting member 3d. Therefore, the movable body 3 and the lever portion 6 are movable in the front-rear direction within a predetermined range relative to the main body tube 2, and unless a force to move them rearward is applied, the elastic force (restoring force) of the movable body spring 8 positions the insertion shaft 6a at the front end of the elongated hole 2k, and the movable body 3 and the lever portion 6 are also positioned at the front end within their movable range. The movable body 3 and the lever portion 6 are configured to move rearward when a force counteracting the elastic force of the movable body spring 8 is applied, and return to their front end positions by the elastic force of the movable body spring 8 when this force is released.
[0022] Here, the rear end position in the front-to-rear direction of the elongated hole 2k of the main body member 2b of the main body tube 2 is set at a position where, when the lever unit 6 is operated to move the movable body 3 backward, a gap G having a substantially circular shape in side view is formed between the inner circumferential side of the bent portion 7b of the hook portion 7 and the holding notches 2f, 2g. This gap G is set to a clearance (shape) that does not bend, crush, or break the fishhook H when the curved portion H1, body portion H2, etc. of the fishhook H are sandwiched and held between the inner circumferential side of the bent portion 7b of the hook portion 7 and the holding notches 2f, 2g. In particular, the size (width) of this gap G can be adjusted not only by the position of the rear end side of the elongated hole 2k of the main body member 2b of the main body tube 2, but also by appropriately changing the shape of the hook portion 7 and the length of the shaft portion 3c of the movable body 3, or the strength and length of the movable body spring 8.
[0023] In short, when removing a fishhook H that has been caught on a fish or the like, the fishhook remover 1 is configured such that the curved portion H1 or body portion H2 of the fishhook H is engaged with the opening 3a of the hook portion 7 of the fishhook remover 1 with the lever portion 6 not moved backward (released state), and then the lever portion 6 is moved backward a distance A against the elastic force of the movable body spring 8, so that the engaged position of the fishhook H (the curved portion H1 or body portion H2) is clamped and held between the abutting portion 3a of the hook portion 7 of the fishhook remover 1 and the pair of holding notches 2f, 2g of the main body cylinder 2, as shown in Figures 3(A) and 3(B). By moving the fishhook remover 1 left and right while maintaining this state, the fishhook H can be removed from the fish or the like.
[0024] Furthermore, the handle portion 5 is a member fixed to the rear end of the main body tube 2, and is the part against which the ball of the hand on the palm side is placed when removing the fishhook H. The handle portion 5 is shaped to bulge in the radial direction of the main body tube 2, and is fixed to the rear end of the main body tube 2 by a connecting member 5a. The rear end side of the moving body spring 8 is inserted inside the connecting member 5a. A cover member 5b is attached to the rear end of the handle portion 5, which biases the moving body spring 8 from the rear end side.
[0025] The lever portion 6 also includes an insertion shaft 6a inserted into the elongated hole 2k of the main body tube 2, a pair of lever bodies 6b protruding in the radial direction of the main body tube 2, and a cover body 6c integrally mounting the insertion shaft 6a and lever bodies 6b and covering the periphery of the elongated hole 2k of the main body tube 2. The lever portion 6 is connected to a connecting member 3d of the movable body 3 via the insertion shaft 6a, and is configured so that the lever portion 6 and the movable body 3 can be moved relative to the main body tube 2 in the longitudinal direction by, for example, hooking a finger on the lever body 6b and moving it back and forth.
[0026] <How to use> Next, a method of using the fishhook remover 1 according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0027] For example, if the hook tip H3 of one of the curved portions H1 of a fishing hook H such as a triple hook shown in Figures 7(A) and 7(b) becomes deeply pierced into the lip of the jaw of a caught fish, the tip portion 7a of the hook portion 7 of the fishing hook remover 1 in the state (before use) shown in Figures 1(A) and 1(B) is slid between the curved portion H1 of the fishing hook H and the lip of the fish.
[0028] In this state, the handle portion 5 and lever portion 6 of the hook remover 1 are grasped, and the lever portion 6 is moved back a distance A toward the handle portion 5 (usage state). Then, as shown in Figures 2(A) and 2(B), the hook portion 7 of the movable body 3 moves back in conjunction with the hook portion 7, and the curved portion H1 of the fishhook H, which has been inserted and locked with the tip portion 7a of the hook portion 7, is clamped between the abutting portion 3b of the curved portion 7b of the hook portion 7 and the retaining notches 2f, 2g of the front end member 2a, and is held in place to prevent it from coming out.
[0029] At this time, as shown in Figure 3(B), the fishhook H is clamped between the inner surface of the curved portion 7b of the hook portion 7 and the concave arc-shaped retaining notches 2f, 2g of the front end member 2a, and as shown in Figures 2(A), 2(B) and 3(A), the gap G formed between the abutment portion 3b of the hook portion 7 and the retaining notches 2f, 2g prevents the curved portion H1 of the fishhook H from being crushed, bent or broken.
[0030] Then, while keeping the curved portion H1 of the fishhook H clamped between the contact portion 3b of the hook portion 7 and the holding notches 2f, 2g of the front end member 2a, the fishhook remover 1 is pulled toward the handle or moved back and forth and left and right to pull (remove) the tip H3 of the fishhook H from the lip of the fish. At this time, even if the fishhook H is pulled out of the fish with a large force, the gap G between the contact portion 3b of the fishhook remover 1 and the holding notches 2f, 2g prevents the curved portion H1 of the fishhook H from being crushed, bent, or broken when the fishhook H is pulled out of the fish.
[0031] Furthermore, after the tip H3 of the fishhook H has been pulled out from the fish's lip, when the lever portion 6 is released from its grip, the restoring force of the movable body spring 8 causes the movable body 4 to move back to its front end, and as shown in Figures 1(A) and 1(B), the fishhook H is released from its hold between the hook portion 7 and the front end member 2a, returning it to its pre-use state, and the fishhook H is released from its hold by the fishhook remover 1.
[0032] <Action and effect> Generally, in so-called thin-shaft fishhooks H used in lure fishing, the curved portion H1 and the body portion H2 are made of a relatively thin wire. Therefore, when the curved portion H1 of the fishhook H is clamped and held by a conventional fishhook remover 11, as shown in Figure 4, when the fishhook H is clamped and held by the fishhook remover 11, the clamped portion of the fishhook H may be pulled (pushed) too far into the main body tube 21, which may crush, bend, or break the curved portion H1 of the fishhook H.
[0033] Therefore, as in the fishhook remover 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention, when the lever portion 6 is retracted toward the handle portion 5 (in use), a gap G having a generally circular shape in side view is formed between the abutment portion 3b of the curved portion 7b of the hook portion 7 and the retaining notches 2f, 2g of the front end member 2a, as shown in Figures 2(A) and 2(B). As a result, when the curved portion H1 of the fishhook H is clamped and held between the inner circumferential surface of the curved portion 7b of the hook portion 7 and the concave arc-shaped retaining notches 2f, 2g of the front end member 2a, damage such as crushing, bending, or breaking of the curved portion H1 of the fishhook H can be prevented.
[0034] Furthermore, when the curved portion H1 of the fishhook H is clamped between the abutment portion 3b of the hook portion 7 of the hook remover 1 and the retaining notches 2f, 2g of the front end member 2a, and the hook tip H3 of the fishhook H is pulled toward the hand or moved back and forth or left and right to pull the hook tip H3 of the fishhook H out of the lip of the fish, even if a large amount of force is applied, the gap G between the abutment portion 3b of the hook remover 1 and the retaining notches 2f, 2g prevents damage to the curved portion H1 of the fishhook H, etc., which may occur when the hook tip H3 is clamped between the abutment portion 3b of the hook portion 7 and the retaining notches 2f, 2g.
[0035] If the tip H3 of the fishhook H penetrates deeply into a hard part such as the jaw of a large fish with strong bones or a hard skeleton, a very large force is required to remove the fishhook H from the point where it was inserted, due to the barb provided near the base of the tip H3 of the fishhook H to prevent it from coming out. In this case, it may be possible to pinch and hold down the curved portion H1 or body portion H2 of the fishhook H with a tool such as pliers and pull it out. However, if this type of pinch and hold down with a tool such as pliers is used to pull out the fishhook H, there is a very high possibility that the pinched portion of the fishhook H will be crushed, bent, or broken, making it necessary to replace it with a new fishhook H, for example. This makes it difficult to continue fishing by reusing the fishhook H that has been pulled out.
[0036] In particular, in lure fishing and other fishing using artificial baits (lures), a fishhook H shown in Figure 7, which is generally called a triple hook (a fishhook with three hook tips H3), is often used.This type of triple hook is more expensive than a typical single hook (a fishhook with one hook tip H3), so changing the fishhook H every time a fish is caught is not economical and is cumbersome, and therefore is not well accepted by anglers.
[0037] [Second embodiment] Furthermore, as shown in Figures 5(A) to 5(C) of a fishhook remover 1A according to a second embodiment of the present invention, a pin member (restraining member) 9, which is a cylindrical round pin, can be attached to the inside of the front end of the front end member 2a of the main body tube 2 to close the inside of the front end member 2a. With this configuration, the pin member 9 can restrain (prevent) the tip H3 of the fishhook H, which is held between the bent portion 7b of the hook portion 7 and the holding notches 2f, 2g of the main body tube 2 when the movable body 3 is moved rearward by the lever portion 6, from entering (getting caught in) the gap between the inner circumferential surface of the front end member 2a and the shank 3c from the tip side of the main body tube 2. In other words, in a conventional fishhook remover 11 without this pin member 9, as shown in Figure 6, the tip H3 of the fishhook H entering from the tip side of the main body tube can enter (get caught in) between the inner circumferential surface of the main body tube and the shank, potentially locking (fixing) the movement of the movable body.
[0038] The pin material 9 is attached to the front end member 2a so as to bridge the interior of the front end side of the front end member 2a and pass through the opening 3a of the hook portion 7. In other words, the pin material 9 is attached so as to be located inside the curved portion of the hook portion 7. The distance from the first bent portion 7c to the second bent portion 7d of the hook portion 7 is set to be larger (longer) than that of the fishhook remover 1 according to the first embodiment. Accordingly, the accommodation notch 2d of the front end member 2a of the main body tube 2 is also set deeper (longer) toward the rear end than that of the fishhook remover 1 according to the first embodiment so as to be able to accommodate the first bent portion 7c to the second bent portion 7d of the hook portion 7. In other words, the hook portion 7 is shaped so as not to cushion (contact) the pin material 9 whether the movable body 3 is moved to the front end side or the rear end side by the lever portion 7.
