Rod holder

Abstract

The present invention provides a rod holder that can hold the rod vertically and in multiple positions in the front-to-back direction, can return to the vertical position from any angle without any pressing operation, and can be used for both belt attachment and attachment of portable items such as coolers. [Solution] The main body has rotating parts 1 and 2 and a rotation lock adjustment pin 7 with a compression spring 8, allowing the rod case 9 to rotate within a range of 136 degrees forward and backward from the vertical position, and to lock in 8 stages forward and backward, for a total of 16 stages. The gear has an asymmetrical shape, allowing it to return to the vertical position from any angle without release operation. Furthermore, eight recesses are provided on the head, and by engaging with a head adjustment part 10 having four protrusions, 16 stages of rotation holding are possible. In addition, the rod case can slide horizontally and is equipped with a belt width adjustment mechanism and a gripping mechanism for the carrying item fixing member 15, allowing it to be used for both belt attachment and cooler attachment.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a rod holder for carrying and holding a fishing rod, and more particularly to a rod holder provided with a rotary lock mechanism, a head rotation stopper mechanism, an axial slide mechanism, and a fixing mechanism capable of being used for both belt attachment and cooler attachment.

Background Art

[0002] In conventional belt-mounted rod holders, the structure for holding the rod vertically is the mainstream, and it has been difficult to hold the rod near the horizontal direction or to hold it protruding forward. In addition, the dedicated belt-mounted type and the dedicated cooler-fixed type have different structures, and there is no one that can be used in both ways. The present invention has been made in view of these problems.

Modes for carrying out the invention

[0008] As shown in FIG. 1, the rod case (9) according to the invention of this application is formed in a cylindrical shape and holds a rod and a reel inside. A rotation mechanism is provided on the side of the rod case (9), and a belt fixing structure and a carry-on item fixing structure are provided on the outside. <00​​As shown in Fig. 2, the main body rotating part is composed of the main body rotating part rod side (1) and the main body rotating part belt side (2), and the two are rotatably fastened by a fastening bolt (13) and a fastening nut (14).

[0010] As shown in Fig. 3, a disc-shaped gear part with teeth on the outer circumference is formed on the main body rotating part rod side (1). Inside the main body rotating part belt side (2), a vertically movable rotation lock adjustment pin (7) and a compression spring (8) are provided. When the rotation lock adjustment pin (7) is pressed down, the gear engagement is released, and the rod case (9) can rotate within a range of 136 degrees forward and backward with respect to the vertical position. When the pressing is released, the rotation lock adjustment pin (7) returns upward by the compression spring (8) and engages with the disc-shaped gear part to be locked in a total of approximately 16 steps, with approximately 8 steps forward and backward (for example, from 6 steps to 10 steps). The gear tooth shape is an asymmetric shape, and it can overcome the rotation lock adjustment pin (7) while pressing it down through an inclined surface in the direction of returning to the vertical position, and is locked by a substantially right-angled surface in the reverse direction.

[0011] As shown in Fig. 4, approximately 8 recesses (for example, from 6 to 10) are formed in the circumferential direction on the head of the rod case (9). Approximately 4 convex protrusions are formed on the inner circumference of the rod case head adjustment part (10). By these engagements, for example, a 16-step rotation stop position can be obtained. It is fixed by a head fixing screw (11) and can prevent rotation even with a light fastening by fitting into the recess position. With this configuration, an optimal locking angle can be selected according to the type and shape of the reel to be used. It has the effect of being able to hold safely. For example, when using a spinning reel, the reel can be prevented from getting caught and slipping off, and when using a bait reel, the trigger part can be hooked and used.

[0012] As shown in Figure 5, the upper belt fixing part (3) and the adjustable belt part (4) are structured to hold the belt (17). By tightening the belt width adjustment screw (6), the two parts move closer together and can be fixed according to the belt width. It can be attached to either the right or left side of the body. When using with the belt attached, if transporting a rod, it can be transported in a locked state when used vertically, and it can also be laid down if there is an obstacle overhead.

[0013] When performing tasks requiring both hands during a fishing trip (for example, changing tackle, attaching bait, or untangling tackle), conventional rod holders attached to a vest require the rod to be held vertically, making them difficult to use. The rod holder according to this invention can be set nearly horizontally, and by setting the rod in front of the angler, the angler can clearly see the rod tip (when a fish bites). Furthermore, when bottom fishing, the rod is attached to the waist, which reduces rod movement, and even if a bite occurs suddenly, the angler can proceed to the hooking action without having to press the lock release button in the vertical direction.

[0014] As shown in Figure 6, a convex slide rail extending in the axial direction is formed on the outer circumference of the rod case (9). A corresponding concave guide part is formed on the rod side (1) of the main body's rotating part, allowing the rod case (9) to move in the axial direction. It can be fixed in any position by a slide fixing screw (12). This structure reduces the inconvenience of interference with the elbow, etc., when walking by fixing it in the lower position in the vertical direction when not in use. Furthermore, when using the rod holder tilted forward, it eliminates the problem of the reel interfering with the stomach, etc., unless it is slid forward beyond the user.

[0015] As shown in Figures 7 and 8, the upper belt fixing part (3) and the adjustable belt part (4) are structured to also hold a fixing member (15) for portable items attached to portable items such as a cooler (18). Preferably, the fixing member (15) for portable items is formed in a flower shape to prevent rotation. This makes it possible to use it for both belt attachment and cooler attachment.
