Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a fishing rod belt capable of bundling and fixing a plurality of fishing rods including fishing line guides.

Background Art

[0002] Conventionally, various rod belts for bundling fishing rods have been known. In such a rod belt, for example, a female part of a surface fastener with fibers standing upright in a loop shape is provided on the entire outer surface of a sheet of foamed rubber (chloroprene rubber), and a male part of a surface fastener with hook-shaped fibers standing upright is provided on the rear end side of the inner surface to engage the double-sided fasteners. When carrying a plurality of fishing rods using a flexible belt, the fishing rods are bundled. [[ID=I3]]

[0003] As such a rod belt, for example, in Utility Model Registration Document 1, a stopper is provided at least on the rear end side of the inner surface of a belt body that is wound around fishing tackle, and another stopper that can engage with the stopper on the rear end side of the inner surface of the belt body is provided on the outer surface of the belt body. A belt for fishing tackle is disclosed, characterized in that the rear end side of the belt body is curved toward the inner surface side.

[0004] In Utility Model Registration Document 2, an exposure groove for a guide ring is formed in the longitudinal direction on the front surface of an elastic cylindrical body, a stretchable locking string is continuously provided at the tip of the elastic cylindrical body, and a hooking body is provided at one end of the stretchable locking string. In a guide ring cover for a fishing rod, the hooking body includes a substantially reverse U-shaped groove-like outer panel that covers the outer periphery of the side surface of the guide, a back panel that covers the back surface of the guide and closes the back surface of the reverse U-shaped groove-like outer panel, a detachment prevention protrusion that extends horizontally from the inside of the back panel and abuts against the lower edge of the guide ring, and a guide ring contact plate body that protrudes vertically from the inside of the back panel and abuts against the guide ring surface. A guide ring cover for a fishing rod is disclosed.

Patent Document 1

[0006] However, in the fishing tackle belt described in Utility Model Registration Document 1, simply bundling the multiple rod sections (each section) that make up a fishing rod with the fishing tackle belt leaves the fishing line guides exposed. This makes them prone to contact with other rod sections or the fishing rod itself, which could damage the fishing line guides or cause the fishing line guides to damage other sections or the fishing rod.

[0007] Furthermore, the guide ring cover for fishing rods described in utility model registration document 2 is intended for telescopic rods. When protecting the fishing line guides, it is necessary to retract the fishing rod and gather the fishing line guides in one place, then cover the rod from the tip to protect them all at once. This presents a problem in that such guide covers cannot be used for fishing rods that do not allow the fishing line guides to be gathered in one place, such as telescopic rods.

[0008] This invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to provide a fishing rod belt that can bundle multiple fishing rods together and protect the fishing line guides, thereby preventing damage to the fishing line guides themselves or to other fishing rods or fishing equipment caused by contact with the fishing line guides.

[0028] First, as shown in Figures 2, 3, and 4, the fishing rod belt 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention is capable of wrapping around multiple fishing rods or rod bodies (in the example of Figure 3, a first rod body 11 and a second rod body 12) bundled together, each of which is provided with one or more fishing line guides 10 (in the example of Figure 3, one fishing line guide 10 is shown), and has a first fixing portion 2a for fixing to the multiple fishing rods or rod bodies, and at least a part of one of the one or more fishing line guides (in the example of Figure 3, one fishing line guide) The covering portion 3 is a strip-shaped covering portion 3 capable of covering the fishing line guide 10), and is configured to include a second fixing portion 4 (as shown in Figure 3 and later in Figure 8) which is connected to the first belt portion 2 at a first end 3a and can be fixed to the bundled fishing rods or rod bodies (in the example of Figure 3, the first fishing rod 11 and the second fishing rod 12) at a second end 3b (as shown in Figure 3), or a third fixing portion 5 (as shown in Figure 4) which will be fixed to one of the one or more fishing line guides (fishing line guide 10), as will be described later. In the example shown in Figure 3, the second fixing portion 4 is fixed to the first fishing rod 11 and the second fishing rod 12 on the side opposite to the side where the fishing line guide is formed, by the locking portion 6 and the locked portion 7, and the locking portion 6 and the locked portion 7 are, for example, a button (locking portion) and a slit (locked portion), but are not limited to these. Furthermore, as the first fixing part 2a of the first belt part 2, for example, a hook-and-loop fastener can be used, but other options such as a wire fastener, belt, zipper, button, string, band, handle cover, tape, or magnet may also be used. Here, as shown in Figures 4(a) and (b), in the fishing rod belt 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention, the basic configuration is the same as described above (in Figure 4(a), the first belt part 2 is formed on the right side of the fishing line guide 10 on the page, and in Figure 4(b), the first belt part 2 is formed on the left side of the fishing line guide 10 on the page), but the third fixing part 5 is fixed by the locking part 6 and the locked part 7 so as to be placed on the fishing line guide 10 rather than the first fishing rod 11 and the second fishing rod 12, and the locking part 6 and the locked part 7 are, for example, a button (locking part) and a slit (locked part), but are not limited to these.

[0029] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a fishing rod belt 1 can be used to bundle multiple fishing rods together and, by covering the fishing line guides to protect them, can prevent damage to the fishing line guides themselves or to other fishing rods or fishing equipment caused by contact with the fishing line guides.

[0030] Here, as partially described above (with some symbols omitted), the button functions as a locking part that engages the slit, and the slit functions as a locked part that is engaged by the button. Furthermore, the locking part and the locked part are not limited to the button and the slit, but may also be a hook-shaped locking body and a loop-shaped locking body of a hook-and-loop fastener, or a pair of strings. In addition, the other end of the covering part is branched into a first branch and a second branch (for example, the configuration shown in Figure 2 above), with the button provided on the first branch and the slit provided on the second branch (i.e., the button and the slit are provided on the other end). In this way, since the button and the slit (locking part and locked part) are provided on the other end of the covering part, the area of ​​the covering part that can be used to protect the fishing line guide is increased, making it easier to protect the fishing line guide. Furthermore, since buttons and slits (locking and secured portions) are provided on the first and second branch portions where the covering portion branches, it can be used by locking it to any point on the rod body or fishing line guide leg, allowing users to choose a flexible method of use according to their preferences. In addition, each belt portion may be made of a strip-shaped member containing an elastic material so that multiple rod bodies constituting the fishing rod can be bundled together. In addition, each belt portion may be made to contain, for example, neoprene (chloroprene rubber). In addition, the covering portion may be made to contain a material with high tear resistance, cushioning, elasticity, and slip resistance (for example, neoprene) so that even large fishing line guides can be covered. In this way, the stretchability of the covering portion makes it possible to accommodate guide rings of a wider range of sizes and complex shapes, and the reduced slippage between the covering portion and the fishing line guide prevents the cover from rotating in the circumferential direction of the fishing rod, thus preventing the fishing line guide from being exposed. In addition, the covering portion may be made of the same material as the belt portion as long as it is an elastic material, but it is preferable to make it more elastic than each belt portion. Furthermore, preferably, the covering portion should be thinner than each belt portion. In this way, even large fishing line guides can be fitted more closely to the fishing line guide and protected more effectively.

[0031] In this embodiment of the fishing rod belt 1 of the present invention, the strip-shaped covering portion 3 is configured to cover the longest fishing line guide when viewed in the radial direction of the fishing rod, in the case of a fishing rod having multiple fishing line guides. In this way, by covering the fishing line guide that is most likely to come into contact with the outside, it is possible to bundle multiple rods together, and by covering the fishing line guide in a way that protects it, it is possible to provide a fishing rod belt that can prevent damage to the fishing line guide itself or to other rods or fishing equipment caused by contact with the fishing line guide.

[0032] Next, as shown in Figures 5 and 6, the fishing rod belt 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention is capable of wrapping around multiple fishing rods or rod bodies (in the examples of Figures 6(a) and (b), a first rod body 11 and a second rod body 12) bundled together, each of which is provided with one or more fishing line guides 10 (in the examples of Figures 6(a) and (b), one fishing line guide 10 is shown), and has a first fixing portion 2a for fixing to the multiple fishing rods or rod bodies, and at least one of the one or more fishing line guides The covering portion 3 is a strip-shaped covering portion capable of covering a part of the fishing line guide 10 (in the example of Figures 6(a) and (b), one fishing line guide 10), and is connected to the first belt portion 2 at a first end 3a, and has a third fixing portion 5 between the first end 3a and the second end 3b (in Figures 5(a) and (b), the area roughly in the center between the first end 3a and the second end 3b) that can be fixed to the guide ring 10a of one or more fishing line guides (fishing line guide 10). In the examples shown in Figures 6(a) and 6(b), the third fixing part 5 is fixed to the guide ring 10a of the fishing line guide 10 by the locking part 6 and the locked part 7 through the guide ring hole (through hole in the guide ring 10a) (so as to be inserted into the guide ring 10a). The locking part 6 and the locked part 7 are, for example, a button (locking part) and a slit (locked part), but are not limited to these. As previously described, the first fixing part 2a of the first belt part 2 can be, for example, a hook and loop fastener, but other materials such as a wire fastener, belt, zipper, button, string, band, handle cover, tape, or magnet may also be used.

[0033] Here, as partially described above (with some symbols omitted), the button functions as a locking part that locks the slit, and the slit functions as a locked part that is locked by the button. Furthermore, the locking part and the locked part are not limited to a button and a slit, but may be a hook-shaped locking body and a loop-shaped locking body of a hook-and-loop fastener, or a pair of strings. The locking part and the locked part are also provided side by side on the covering so that they can be locked through the guide ring hole of the fishing line guide. In this way, because they can be locked through the guide ring hole, the covering can be fixed more closely along the fishing line guide, and the fishing line guide can be protected more effectively. The locking part and the locked part may also be provided side by side in the width direction of the belt. In this way, it becomes easier to fix the covering in a state that covers the upper surface of the fishing line guide, and the fishing line guide can be fixed more effectively.

[0034] Next, with reference to Figures 7(a), (b), and (c), a fishing rod belt 1 according to another embodiment of the present invention will be described. First, as shown in Figures 7(a), (b), and (c), in the fishing rod belt 1 according to another embodiment of the present invention, the fishing rod belt 1 is configured to include a covering portion 3 having a hood portion 8 formed at a second end 3b, which has a bottomed cylindrical portion into which a fishing line guide can be inserted and locked to the fishing line guide, and a first belt portion 2 having a first fixing portion 2a at the first end 3a of the covering portion 3, which can wrap around a plurality of fishing rods or rod bodies (in the example of Figures 6(a), (b), a first rod body 11 and a second rod body 12) bundled together, each of which is provided with one or more fishing line guides 10 (in the example of Figures 6(a), (b), one fishing line guide 10 is shown). Here, the hood portion 8 functions as a fixing portion that can be fixed to the fishing line guide 10 or the multiple fishing rods or rod bodies, such that the covering portion 3 maintains a state in which it covers the fishing line guide 10. In this way, by simply placing the hood portion 8 of the covering portion 3 over the fishing line guide 10, the fishing line guide 10 can be protected and the hood portion 8 of the covering portion 3 can be locked in place, thereby improving workability (the hood portion 8 is a hood portion that can accommodate part or all of one of the one or more fishing line guides, and functions as another form of the third fixing portion described above). Here, a drawstring or elastic cord may be provided at the opening of the hood portion 8 so that the opening of the hood portion 8 can be tightened and fixed at the bottom of the guide ring of the fishing line guide 10. In the example shown in Figure 7(b), the first belt portion 2 described above is formed on the right side of the page as a reference for the fishing line guide 10, and in the example shown in Figure 7(c), the first belt portion 2 described above is formed on the left side of the page as a reference for the fishing line guide 10, but the other basic configurations are the same.

[0035] Next, with reference to Figures 8(a), (b), and (c), a fishing rod belt 1 according to another embodiment of the present invention will be described. As shown in Figure 8(a), the fishing rod belt 1 according to another embodiment of the present invention is configured to include a first belt portion 2, a second belt portion 9, and a covering portion 3 connected to the first belt portion 2 and the second belt portion 9 at either end when viewed in the direction of extension. Furthermore, as shown in Figures 8(b) and (c), the fishing rod belt 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention is capable of wrapping around a bundle of multiple fishing rods or rod bodies (in the example of Figures 8(b) and (c), a first rod body 11 and a second rod body 12), each of which is provided with one or more fishing line guides 10 (in the example of Figures 8(b) and (c), one fishing line guide 10 is shown), and has a first fixing portion 2a for fixing to the multiple fishing rods or rod bodies. The fishing rod belt is configured to include a belt portion 2, a strip-shaped covering portion 3 capable of covering at least a part of one of the one or more fishing line guides (in the examples of Figures 8(b) and (c), one fishing line guide 10), and a second belt portion 9 that can be wrapped around the multiple fishing rods or rod bodies (in the examples of Figures 8(b) and (c), the first rod body 11 and the second rod body 12) in a bundled state, and has a second fixing portion 9a for fixing to the multiple fishing rods or rod bodies. In this way, the covering portion 3 is easier to position relative to the fishing line guide 10. More specifically, the covering portion 3 can be placed over the fishing line guide 10, and then each belt portion (first belt portion 2, second belt portion 9) can be wrapped around it. Furthermore, since the covering portion 3 covers only a portion of the total length of each belt portion, the amount wrapped around the fishing line guide 10 can be reduced, preventing the fishing rod belt 1 from becoming bulky after being wrapped. Here, the second belt portion 9 functions as a fixing portion that can be fixed to the plurality of fishing rods or rod bodies (in the examples of Figures 8(b) and (c), the first rod body 11 and the second rod body 12) so as to maintain the state in which the covering portion 3 covers the fishing line guide 10 (the first belt portion 2 may also be made to function in this way as a fixing portion).That is, the second belt portion 9 may be wrapped around the multiple fishing rods or rod bodies first, and the first belt portion 2 may be wrapped around the multiple fishing rods or rod bodies and secured so that the covering portion 3 maintains the state in which the fishing line guide 10 is covered. Also, as the first fixing portion 2a of the first belt portion 2 and the second fixing portion 9a of the second belt portion 9, for example, hook and loop fasteners can be used, but other options such as wire fasteners, belts, zippers, buttons, strings, bands, handle covers, tapes, or magnets may also be used.

[0036] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 9, in the fishing rod belt 1 according to another embodiment of the present invention described with reference to Figure 8, the first belt portion 2 and the second belt portion 9 may be connected to the covering portion 3 in a region other than both ends when viewed in the direction of extension (in the example shown in Figure 9, the central or approximately central region when viewed in the same direction of extension). In this way, the pair of belts, the first belt portion 2 and the second belt portion 9, can be secured as an underlay to the first rod body 11 and the second rod body 12 before the covering portion 3 can be attached to the fishing line guide 10, thus enabling the covering portion 3 to be stably attached to the fishing line guide 10.

[0037] Furthermore, in the fishing rod belt 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention, the locking portion and the locked portion of the third fixing portion are positioned to be able to be locked through one of the guide ring holes of the one or more fishing line guides.

[0038] Furthermore, in the fishing rod belt 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention, the locking portion and the locked portion of the third fixing portion are arranged side by side when viewed in the width direction of the first belt portion.

[0039] Furthermore, in the fishing rod belt 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention, the second fixing portion is a second belt portion provided at the second end of the covering portion.

[0040] Furthermore, in the fishing rod belt 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention, the first end and the second end of the covering portion are connected to either end of the first belt portion and the second belt portion in the longitudinal direction, respectively.

[0041] Furthermore, in the fishing rod belt 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention, the first end and the second end of the covering portion are connected to portions other than the respective ends in the longitudinal direction of the first belt portion and the second belt portion, respectively.

[0042] Furthermore, in a fishing rod belt 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention, the covering portion is formed at a second end with a first branch portion and a second branch portion, and the second fixing portion is configured to have a locking portion provided on the first branch portion and a locking portion provided on the second branch portion.

[0043] Furthermore, in the fishing rod belt 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention, the third fixing portion is a hood portion capable of accommodating part or all of one of the one or more fishing line guides.

[0044] Furthermore, in a fishing rod belt 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention, the hood portion is provided at the second end of the covering portion, and the hood portion is a bottomed cylindrical portion that can be locked to one of the one or more fishing line guides by accommodating part or all of one of the one or more fishing line guides.

[0045] Furthermore, in the fishing rod belt 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of the covering portion is thinner than the thickness of the first belt portion.
