Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an artificial bait. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, in the case of split artificial baits such as the Tai Kapla used in sea bream fishing, a cylindrical rubber ring material is placed over the attachment attached to the head, and a fish-attracting component made of a soft material such as a necktie or worm is sandwiched and fixed by shifting the ring (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 to 4). In such conventional lures, a rubber ring is attached coaxially to the pipe and a fish-attracting member is wound around a protruding portion on the periphery of the pipe and fixed thereto by friction. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Utility Model Registration No. 3225134 [Patent Document 2] Patent No. 6296593 [Patent Document 3] JP 2016-140252 A [Patent Document 4] Patent No. 5806582 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, in conventional artificial baits such as those shown in the patent documents, the fish-attracting members are fixed to the pipe by friction using rubber ring material, which has the problem that it is difficult to attach and detach the fish-attracting members while fishing. Furthermore, when the fish-attracting members are fixed to the pipe by such frictional force, the fixed state is likely to vary, and there is room for improvement in this regard.

[0005] The present invention has been made in consideration of the above circumstances, and its object is to provide an artificial bait that can improve the ease of attachment and detachment and can stabilize the fixed state of the fish-attracting members. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] (1) The artificial bait according to the present invention comprises a head and a To be established This artificial bait comprises a pipe and a fish-attracting member removably fixed to the pipe, wherein the pipe has a positioning portion in which a part of the fish-attracting member is positioned, and an engaging member which forms an engaging portion which engages with the positioning portion, and the fish-attracting member placed in the positioning portion is engaged in a state in which it is clamped by the engaging portion.

[0007] According to the artificial bait of the present invention, a part of the fish-attracting member is arranged in the arrangement section of the pipe in the disengaged position where the engaging portion of the engaging member is retracted from the engaged position, and then the engaging portion is engaged with the arrangement section, whereby the fish-attracting member is clamped and fixed between the engaging portion of the engaging member and the arrangement section. Then, the engaging member is locked in the clamped position, so that the clamped state of the fish-attracting member is maintained. In this way, by engaging the fish-attracting member arranged in the arrangement section with the engaging member, the fixing force is stabilized, and the variation in the fixing force can be suppressed compared to the conventional case where the fish-attracting member is fixed by utilizing the frictional force between the engaging portion and a separate cylindrical rubber ring material. Furthermore, with the present invention, there is no need for the time-consuming operation of attaching a rubber ring material to the part around which the fish-attracting members are wrapped as described above, and the fish-attracting members can be attached and detached from the pipe with a simple operation, making it easy to replace the fish-attracting members.

[0008] (2) The arrangement may be characterized in that the positioning portion is provided on a protrusion protruding from the outer peripheral surface of the pipe, the engagement portion has a recess that engages with the protrusion, and the fish attracting member arranged on the arrangement portion is clamped between the recess and the positioning portion.

[0009] In this case, the fish-attracting member is clamped and fixed between the recess and the protrusion of the engagement member by engaging the recess with the protrusion. This allows the fish-attracting member placed in the placement section to be engaged with the engagement member, making the fixing force more stable.

[0010] (3) It is preferable that the placement portion is located on a bottom surface of a groove portion extending in a direction intersecting with the longitudinal direction of the pipe.

[0011] In this case, when the engaging member is in the disengaged position, the fish attracting member can be positioned in a predetermined position in the placement section by setting the fish attracting member on the bottom surface of the groove portion, eliminating the need for operations such as wrapping the fish attracting member around the pipe, making the work much simpler.

[0012] (4) The engaging member may be biased by an elastic force in a direction in which the fish-attracting member is clamped between the engaging member and the positioning portion.

[0013] In this case, the fish-attracting members placed in the placement section are clamped by the engaging members biased by elastic force, and the clamping position of the fish-attracting members is maintained by the elastic force of the engaging members.

[0014] (5) The engaging member may be a fastening member that can selectively take a clamping position in which it clamps the fish-attracting member and a non-clamping position in which it releases the clamped state of the fish-attracting member.

[0015] In this case, when the fastening member is in the clamping position, the fish-attracting members are clamped and fixed between the engagement portion and the arrangement portion of the engagement member. Then, when replacing the fish-attracting members, the clamped state can be easily released by switching the fastening member from the clamping position to the non-clamping position.

[0016] (6) The pipe may be inserted into the head.

[0017] In this case, the pipe can be easily attached by inserting it into the head.

[0018] (7) The pipe may be detachably provided to the head.

[0019] In this case, the pipe can be removed from the head and separated when a fish is caught, preventing the fish-attracting member from breaking when a fish is caught. Also, by attaching the separated pipe to the head, the lure can be easily reassembled to its original state.

[0020] (8) The pipe may include an engagement pipe that is engaged with the head, and a split pipe that is separable from the engagement pipe.

[0021] In this case, since the split pipes are separable from the engaging pipe, when a fish is caught, only the split pipes can be removed from the engaging pipe and separated. This prevents the fish-attracting member from breaking when a fish is caught. Also, by fitting the separated split pipes back into the engaging pipe, the lure can be easily reassembled to its original state. Effect of the Invention

[0022] According to the artificial bait of the present invention, the attaching and detaching operability can be improved, and the fixed state of the fish-attracting member can be stabilized. [Brief description of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0024] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the artificial bait according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In this embodiment, an artificial bait for sea bream fishing (called "Tai Kabura") will be described as an example. In addition, in each drawing, the scale of each component may be appropriately changed as necessary to make each component large enough to be visible.

[0025] (First embodiment) As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the artificial bait 1 of the first embodiment includes a head 2, a pipe 3 inserted into the head 2, and a fish-attracting member 4 such as a necktie or a skirt that is detachably fixed to the pipe 3. Reference numeral 20 in Figure 2 denotes a fishing line that is inserted into the pipe 3. A fishing hook is attached to the tip of the fishing line 20.

[0026] 1 and 2, the up-down direction on the paper is referred to as the front-rear direction X, the upper side is defined as the front or front side on the fishing rod side, and the lower side is defined as the rear or rear side. In the following description of this embodiment, the pipe 3 has a pipe axis F along the longitudinal direction facing the front-rear direction X, the direction going around the pipe axis F is defined as the circumferential direction, and the direction perpendicular to the pipe axis F as viewed from the pipe axis F direction is defined as the radial direction.

[0027] The head 2 is generally formed in a drum shape, and has a flat portion 2a formed in a circular shape in the center in a plan view. The head 2 is provided with an insertion hole 21 through which the pipe 3 is inserted, penetrating in the front-rear direction X. The insertion hole 21 is disposed at a position closer to one of the left and right sides of the head 2 (the left side of the paper in Figs. 1 and 2). The insertion hole 21 has a circumferential groove 22 formed in the front position over the entire circumference in the circumferential direction. The insertion hole 21 has a large diameter hole 23 provided on the rear side of the circumferential groove 22 and a small diameter hole 24 provided on the front side of the circumferential groove 22. The inner diameter of the large diameter hole 23 is set to be larger than the inner diameter of the small diameter hole 24. The inner diameter of the groove bottom 22a of the circumferential groove 22 is larger than the inner diameter of the large diameter hole 23. The front part of the mounting inner tube 31 (described later) of the pipe 3 is fitted and engaged in the small diameter hole 24.

[0028] The head 2 has a higher specific gravity than seawater and is sunk in seawater. The mass of the head 2 is, for example, 10 g to 150 g, particularly 20 g to 100 g. As the material of the head 2, a metal material having a high specific gravity, such as lead, a lead alloy, tungsten, or a tungsten alloy, is adopted. The surface of the head 2 may be painted.

[0029] As shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, the pipe 3 includes a cylindrical pipe body 30 and an attachment inner tube 31 that is inserted from the front side of a hole 30a of the pipe body 30 and engaged with the head 2.

[0030] The pipe body 30 is formed in a cylindrical shape that extends long in the direction of the pipe axis F. The outer diameter of the pipe body 30 is approximately the same as the inner diameter of the insertion hole 21 of the head 2. The mounting inner tube 31 is inserted from the front end portion 30b of the pipe body 30. The pipe body 30 is made of a material such as synthetic resin that is harder than the mounting inner tube 31.

[0031] The pipe body 30 is provided with a locking long hole 32 extending along the pipe axis F and penetrating in the thickness direction. The locking long hole 32 is arranged at each position facing the pipe diameter direction. The locking long hole 32 is provided with a plurality of (here, five) engagement holes 32A spaced apart in the longitudinal direction. The inner diameter of the engagement hole 32A is larger than the width dimension of the locking long hole 32. The locking protrusions 37 (described later) of the mounting inner tube 31 engage with these engagement holes 32A from the inside. In other words, the locking protrusions 37 engage with any one of the five engagement holes 32A in a stepwise switching manner, and the protruding length of the mounting inner tube 31 in the front-rear direction X with respect to the pipe body 30 is determined by the arbitrary engaged engagement hole 32A. In other words, the pipe 3 can be set to a desired length according to the size of the head 2 shown in FIG. 2.

[0032] At a position on the rear end 30c side of the pipe main body 30, there is a positioning section 33 in which a part of the fish attracting members 4 is positioned, and a fastener 34 (engagement member, fastening member) having an engagement section 344 (described later) that engages with the positioning section 33. The fish attracting members 4 placed in the positioning section 33 are locked in a state of being clamped between the fastener 34.

[0033] A protrusion 35 having an arrangement portion 33 is provided at a position on the rear end 30c side of the pipe body 30. The protrusion 35 is formed by bulging outward in the radial direction of the pipe body 30, and the first protrusion 35A and the second protrusion 35B are arranged in the pipe axis F direction with the arrangement portion 33 sandwiched therebetween. That is, the protrusion 35 is arranged in the order of the first protrusion 35A, the arrangement portion 33, and the second protrusion 35B from the front side to the rear side. The second protrusion 35B is located on the rear end 30c side of the pipe body 30. The arrangement portion 33 is a groove bottom portion located between the first protrusion 35A and the second protrusion 35B. That is, the arrangement portion 33 is located on the bottom surface of a groove formed between the first protrusion 35A and the second protrusion 35B and extending in a direction intersecting the longitudinal direction of the pipe 3.

[0034] As shown in Figures 4, 5, and 7(a) to (c), the fastener 34 is made of a metal member and is formed into a substantially rectangular ring shape. The fastener 34 has a base end 341 at one end in the front-rear direction X, an operating part 342 provided at the other end, a clamping part 343 arranged between the base end 341 and the operating part 342 and clamping the fish attracting member 4 between the arrangement part 33, and an engagement part 344 arranged between the clamping part 343 and the operating part 342 and fitting to the outside of the second convex part 35B.

[0035] The base end 341 of the fastener 34 is provided such that a rotation axis 34C of the base end 341 faces a direction perpendicular to the front-rear direction X, and is supported by the first convex portion 35A so as to be rotatable about the rotation axis 34C. The fastener 34 can be opened and closed relative to the second convex portion 35B, and in the closed state, the engagement portion 344 engages with a side groove 35a formed on a side surface of the second convex portion 35B. As shown in Figures 5 and 8(a), the side groove 35a extends in a direction along the pipe axis F, and has an inner groove surface having the same diameter as the engagement portion 344.

[0036] The position of the fastener 34 at this time is defined as a clamping position P1. The second protrusion 35B engages with the inside of the ring-shaped opening 34a (recess) of the fastener 34, so that the fastener 34 is fixed at the clamping position P1 (FIG. 8). (c) The engaging portion 344 of the fastener 34 may be fixed by frictionally contacting the side groove 35a of the second protrusion 35B at the clamping position P1, or may be fixed by the biasing force of the fastener 34.

[0037] With the fastener 34 fixed at the clamping position P1, by flipping up the operating portion 342 at the other end of the fastener 34, the engagement portion 344 is released from the engagement with the second protrusion 35B, and the fastener 34 is opened. Here, in this embodiment, the posture of the fastener 34 in the open state, which is perpendicular to the front-rear direction X when viewed from the direction of the rotation shaft 34C as shown in Figures 8(a) and (b), is defined as the non-clamping position P2.

[0038] 7(b), when the engaging portion 344 of the fastener 34 engages with the second protrusion 35B and is in the clamping position P1, at least a part of the clamping portion 343 is located closer to the pipe axis F than the arrangement portion 33 when viewed from the direction of the rotation shaft 34C. Therefore, the fish-attracting member 4 arranged in the arrangement portion 33 is clamped and fixed between the arrangement portion 33 and the clamping portion 343 of the fastener 34 by setting the fastener 34 to the clamping position P1.

[0039] As shown in Figs. 3 to 5, the mounting inner tube 31 is provided so as to be expandable and contractable in stages relative to the pipe body 30. The mounting inner tube 31 is formed in a cylindrical shape having a hole 31a. The inner diameter of the hole 31a is set to be sufficiently larger than the outer diameter of the fishing line 20. As shown in Fig. 2, the pipe 3 is mounted on the head 2, and when the fishing line 20 is inserted through the hole 31a, the head 2 is provided so as to be able to move relative to the fishing line 20. The mounting inner tube 31 can be made of a hard resin such as polyacetal (POM), ABS, or high density polyethylene (HDPE). In this embodiment, the mounting inner tube 31 is made of a hard resin such as polyacetal (POM), ABS, or high density polyethylene (HDPE). Inner cylinder The material 31 is the same as that of the pipe body 30, that is, polyacetal (POM).

[0040] 6, a pair of slits 31A, 31A extending in the front-rear direction X are formed in the rear end portion 31c of the mounting inner tube 31. The pair of slits 31A, 31A are disposed at positions facing each other in the radial direction of the mounting inner tube 31. Rear pieces 31d on both sides of the slits 31A, 31A at the rear end portion 31c of the mounting inner tube 31 have flexibility so as to be able to swing toward and away from each other with the base end of the slit as an axis.

[0041] The pair of rear pieces 31d, 31d are each provided with a locking protrusion 37 that protrudes radially outward. The locking protrusion 37 is engaged with each engagement hole 32A of the locking long hole 32 of the pipe main body 30. The circumferential surface of the locking protrusion 37 is entirely curved. When a force acts between the mounting inner tube 31 and the pipe main body 30 to move relatively in the pipe axis F direction, the curved circumferential surface of the locking protrusion 37 makes it easy to come out of the engagement hole 32A.

[0042] A first flange 36A and a second flange 36B protruding radially outward are provided at a front end 31b of the mounting inner tube 31 with a gap between them in the pipe axis F direction. The first flange 36A and the second flange 36B extend over the entire circumference of the mounting inner tube 31. As shown in FIG. 2, when the pipe 3 is mounted on the head 2, the first flange 36A is engaged with the front opening edge 21a of the insertion hole 21 of the head 2, and the second flange 36B is engaged with the circumferential groove 22 of the head 2. This fixes the mounting inner tube 31 to the head 2 so as not to slip out of the head 2 at least forward.

[0043] When the fish-attracting member 4 is a necktie, it is a band-shaped swinging body made of a soft material such as rubber. When the fish-attracting member 4 is a skirt, it is a swinging body made of many long threads. As shown in Figures 8(b) and (c), the middle part 4a of the fish-attracting member 4 is arranged so as to be hooked onto the arrangement part 33 of the pipe main body 30. The fish-attracting member 4 swings when subjected to water pressure in the sea, appealing to sea bream.

[0044] Next, a method for attaching the fish-attracting members 4 to the artificial bait 1 of this embodiment will be described. First, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, the pipe 3 set to a predetermined length is inserted from the rear of the insertion hole 21 of the head 2. The length of the mounting inner tube 31 of the pipe 3 is adjusted in advance relative to the pipe body 30 to match the size of the head 2 (the length of the insertion hole 21). At this time, the length of the pipe 3 can be adjusted by engaging the locking protrusion 37 provided on the mounting inner tube 31 with any engagement hole 32A of the locking elongated hole 32 provided in the pipe body 30, as shown in Figures 5 and 6. The pipe 3 may be inserted into the head 2 after the fish-attracting members 4, which will be described later, are fixed to the pipe body 30.

[0045] Next, in the pipe main body 30, as shown in Figures 8(a) and (b), the middle part 4a of the fish attracting member 4 is arranged in the arrangement part 33 with the fastener 34 in the non-clamping position P2. After that, as shown in Figure 8(c), the fastener 34 is rotated in the closing direction around the rotation axis 34C of the base end part 341 to the clamping position P1. As a result, the engagement part 344 of the fastener 34 engages with the side groove 35a of the second convex part 35B, and the fish attracting member 4 is clamped between the clamping part 343 of the fastener 34 and the arrangement part 33 and fixed to the pipe main body 30 as shown in Figure 1. When the artificial bait 1 with the fish-attracting member 4 fixed thereto is moved in the sea by pulling the fishing line 20 forward (towards the fishing rod), the fish-attracting member 4 such as a tie or skirt swings, appealing to sea bream.

[0046] Next, an operation procedure for replacing the fish attracting members 4 during sea bream fishing will be described. First, the operating part 342 of the fastener 34 of the pipe 3 still attached to the head 2 is operated to pull up the fastener 34 to the non-clamping position P2 (see FIG. 8(b)), and the attached fish attracting member 4 is removed from the arrangement part 33. Next, as shown in FIG. 8(b), another fish attracting member 4 is arranged in the vacant arrangement part 33 with the fastener 34 in the non-clamping position P2, and then, as shown in FIG. 8(c), the fastener 34 is closed to the clamping position P1, and the engagement part 344 of the fastener 34 is engaged with the side groove 35a of the second convex part 35B. As a result, the other fish attracting member 4 is clamped between the clamping part 343 of the fastener 34 and the arrangement part 33, and is fixed to the pipe 3, and is replaced with another fish attracting member 4.

[0047] Next, the operation of the artificial bait 1 thus constructed will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In the artificial bait 1 according to this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8(b), the engaging portion 344 of the fastener 34 is moved from the clamping position P1 to a non-clamping position P2. TaAt this time, parts of the fish attracting members 4 are placed in the placement section 33 of the pipe 3. Then, as shown in Figure 8 (c), the engaging section 344 is engaged with the second protrusion 35B, whereby the fish attracting members 4 are clamped and fixed between the clamping section 343 of the fastener 34 and the placement section 33. Then, the fastener 34 is stopped at the clamping position P1, so that the clamped state of the fish attracting members 4 is maintained. In this way, by clamping the fish attracting member 4 placed in the positioning section 33 with the clamping section 343 of the fastener 34, the fixing force is stabilized and the variation in the fixing force can be reduced compared to the conventional case in which the fixing force is achieved by utilizing the frictional force between the fish attracting member 4 and a separate cylindrical rubber ring material.

[0048] In this embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 and 8(c), the fish-attracting members 4 are securely clamped and fixed to the pipe body 30 in a stable position, so the fish-attracting members 4 swing stably when the artificial bait 1 is pulled. The stable swing has the advantage of being more appealing to sea bream and resulting in a larger catch.

[0049] Furthermore, in this embodiment, there is no need for the time-consuming operation of attaching a rubber ring material to the part around which the fish-attracting member 4 is wrapped, as described above, and the fish-attracting member 4 can be attached and detached from the pipe 3 with a simple operation, making it easy to replace the fish-attracting member 4.

[0050] Furthermore, in the artificial bait 1 of this embodiment, the fish-attracting members 4 are clamped and fixed between the clamping part 343 and the arrangement part 33 of the fastener 34 by engaging the engagement part 344 having the opening 34a in the fastener 34 with the second convex part 35B. In this way, the fish-attracting members 4 clamped between the arrangement part 33 and the clamping part 343 are configured to engage the engagement part 344 with the second convex part 35B, so that the fixing force can be made more stable.

[0051] Furthermore, in this embodiment, since the arrangement part 33 is located on the bottom surface of the groove extending in a direction intersecting the longitudinal direction of the pipe 3 between the first convex part 35A and the second convex part 35B, when the fastener 34 is in the non-clamping position P2, the fish attracting members 4 can be positioned in the arrangement part 33 by setting the fish attracting members 4 in the arrangement part 33 located on the bottom surface of the groove. Therefore, an operation such as wrapping the fish attracting members 4 around the pipe 3 is not required, making the work easier.

[0052] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the fastener 34 can selectively take on a clamping position P1 in which it clamps the fish attracting members 4, and a non-clamping position P2 in which it releases the clamped state of the fish attracting members 4, so when the fastener 34 is in the clamping position P1, the fish attracting members 4 are clamped and fixed between the clamping portion 343 and the positioning portion 33 of the fastener 34. When replacing the fish-attracting members 4, for example, the clamped state can be easily released by switching the fasteners 34 from the clamping position P1 to the non-clamping position P2.

[0053] In the artificial bait 1 according to the present embodiment configured as described above, the attachment and detachment operability can be improved, and the fixed state of the fish-attracting members 4 can be stabilized.

[0054] Next, an artificial bait according to another embodiment will be described. Note that the same reference numerals are used to designate components having the same functions as those in the first embodiment, and detailed descriptions thereof will be omitted to avoid duplication.

[0055] Second embodiment Next, the artificial bait 1A according to the second embodiment shown in FIG. 9 to FIG. 12 is attached to the head 2. Can be In the pipe 5, the pipe body 50 is detachable from the mounting inner tube 51 attached to the head 2 when a fish is caught, i.e., it is configured to be removable. The pipe body 50 is fitted to the outside of the mounting inner tube 51 so that it can be removed rearward with a force that does not break the fish-attracting members.

[0056] A peripheral convex portion 52 is provided on the peripheral surface 51a of the mounting inner tube 51 near the first flange portion 511. The peripheral surface 51a of the mounting inner tube 51 from the peripheral convex portion 52 to the rear end portion 51b is a smooth surface without any irregularities such as protrusions over the entire length direction. The peripheral convex portion 52 has a function of restricting the forward insertion of the pipe body 50 to determine the insertion position, and a function of preventing the mounting inner tube 51 from slipping out of the head 2 in both the front-rear direction X. The maximum radial projection length of the peripheral convex portion 52 is set to be smaller than the outer diameter of the pipe body 50 and smaller than the inner diameter dimension of the large diameter hole 23 of the insertion hole 21 in the head 2.

[0057] The hole 50a of the pipe body 50 has a smooth surface without any irregularities such as protrusions along the pipe axis F. At a position on the rear end 50b side of the pipe body 50, a first protrusion 53A (protrusion) and a second protrusion 53B are provided side by side in the pipe axis F direction with an arrangement portion 54 therebetween. In this embodiment as well, the arrangement portion 54 is a groove bottom portion located between the first protrusion 53A and the second protrusion 53B, and is located on the bottom surface of the groove extending in a direction intersecting the longitudinal direction of the pipe 5.

[0058] Here, the head 2 according to the second embodiment is provided so as to be halved on a plane passing through the pipe axis F. The mounting inner tube 51 inserted into the pipe body 50 is fixed to the head 2 by combining the two halves of the head 2 with the mounting inner tube 51 fitted into one of the insertion holes 21 into which the head 2 is divided.

[0059] The fastener 55 (engagement member, fastening member) is made of a metal member, and the base end 551 is supported elastically on the first protrusion 53A so as to be rotatable about the rotation shaft 56. The fastener 55 is formed in a substantially L-shape in a side view seen from the direction of the rotation shaft 56. That is, the fastener 55 has the base end 551 located at the front, the operation part 552 located at the rear, and the clamping part 553 that is disposed between the base end 551 and the operation part 552 and clamps the fish-attracting member between the arrangement part 54. The clamping part 553 extends rearward from both ends of the base end 551 and is connected to the operation part 552. The fastener 55 is provided with a spring material at the base end 551, and is configured such that the spring force of the spring material acts so as to bias the fastener 55 to a clamping position P1 described later.

[0060] The fastener 55 can be opened and closed relative to the arrangement section 54, and when closed, the clamping portion 553 and the operating portion 552 engage with the side surface of the second convex portion 53B and the pipe main body 50 by the elastic force of the fastener 55. The position of the fastener 55 at this time is defined as the clamping position P1. When the operating portion 552 of the fastener 55 engages with the second convex portion 53B and is in the clamping position P1, at least the clamping portion 553 is provided to be located closer to the pipe axis F side than the arrangement section 54 when viewed from the direction of the rotation shaft 56. Therefore, the fish attracting member arranged in the arrangement section 54 is clamped and fixed between the arrangement section 54 and the clamping portion 553 of the fastener 55 by setting the fastener 55 to the clamping position P1.

[0061] In addition, when the fastener 55 is fixed at the clamping position P1, by flipping up the operating portion 552, the clamping portion 553 is disengaged from the second protrusion 53B, and the fastener 55 is opened. At this time, the position of the fastener 55 is the non-clamping position P2 perpendicular to the front-rear direction X as viewed from the direction of the rotation shaft 56.

[0062] In the artificial bait 1A according to the second embodiment thus constructed, the pipe body 50 is fitted to the outer periphery of the mounting inner tube 51 so as to be movable in the pipe axis F direction, so that when a fish is caught, the pipe body 50 can be removed and detached from the mounting inner tube 51. This makes it possible to prevent breakage of the fish-attracting member when a fish is caught. In addition, the detached pipe body 50 can be inserted into the insertion hole 21 of the head 2 and fitted to the outside of the mounting inner tube 51 attached inside the head 2, so that the artificial bait 1A can be easily reassembled to its original state.

[0063] (First Modification) The artificial lure 1D according to the modification shown in Fig. 13 and Fig. 14 has a configuration in which the shape of the pipe body 50 of the second embodiment described above is changed to reliably hold the fish-attracting members. Specifically, the pipe body 50 is further divided in the direction of the pipe axis F. That is, the pipe body 50 is composed of a front body section and a rear body section 50B (not shown), and the front body section and the rear body section 50B are provided separably in the front-rear direction X. The front body section is a member that detachably fits onto the outside of the mounting inner tube 51 that is mounted in a state of being inserted into the insertion hole 21 of the head 2 shown in Fig. 9. The rear body section 50B is inserted from the rear of the front body section and separably engaged therewith.

[0064] In rear torso section 50B of the modified example, fastener 55 has rotation shaft 56 provided on second protrusion 53B located rearward of arrangement section 54. Fastener 55 is rotated forward from non-clamping position P2 shown in Fig. 13 by operating operating section 552, whereby clamping section 553 of fastener 55 engages with first protrusion 53A to clamping position P1 as shown in Fig. 14.

[0065] In a modified example, a cylindrical friction resistance member 59 is provided in rear torso section 50B so as to overlap with arrangement section 54. Friction resistance member 59 is formed in a cylindrical band shape of a predetermined width, and is provided by covering or wrapping around the outer periphery of rear torso section 50B. The material of friction resistance member 59 can be a material with a high friction coefficient, such as silicon or rubber.

[0066] In the artificial lure 1D according to the modified example, when the fastener 55 is engaged with the rear body portion 50B, the frictional force of the fastener 55 engaging with the frictional resistance member 59 in the arrangement portion 54 increases, improving the fixing force. Therefore, the fish-attracting member arranged in the arrangement portion 54 can be more reliably clamped and held by the fastener 55.

[0067] Third embodiment Next, the artificial bait 1B according to the third embodiment will be described in detail with reference to Figs. The artificial lure 1B of the third embodiment has a configuration in which the pipe body 50 of the second embodiment described above is further divided in the direction of the pipe axis F. That is, the pipe body 50 is composed of a front body section 50A and a rear body section 50B. The front body section 50A is a member that is detachably fitted to the outside of the mounting inner tube 51 that is attached in a state where it is inserted into the insertion hole 21 of the head 2. An insertion tube 57 is provided at the rear end of the front body section 50A, into which the front part 50c of the rear body section 50B is fitted in a state where it is inserted.

[0068] The rear section 50B is a member including a first protrusion 53A, a second protrusion 53B, an arrangement portion 54, and a fastener 55, and these portions are similar to those in the second embodiment, so detailed description will be omitted here. A pair of slits 50d is formed in the front section 50c of the rear section 50B from the front end toward the rear. Since the slits 50d are formed in the rear section 50B, the front section 50c can be given elasticity in the radial direction, and the front section 50c is fitted to the fitting tube 57 of the front section 50A while being held by a predetermined elastic force.

[0069] In the artificial lure 1B according to the third embodiment, the rear body section 50B of the pipe body 50 is configured to be separably fitted into the fitting tube 57 of the front body section 50A, so that when a fish is caught, only the rear body section 50B can be removed and separated from the front body section 50A. This makes it possible to prevent breakage of the fish-attracting member when a fish is caught. In addition, by fitting the separated rear body section 50B into the fitting tube 57 of the front body section 50A, the artificial lure 1B can be easily reassembled to its original state.

[0070] (Second Modification) 20 shows a rear body section 50C according to a modification of the rear body section 50B of the third embodiment described above. The modified rear body section 50C is configured such that the second protrusion 53B is provided with a rotation shaft hole 58 that rotatably supports the base end of a fastener (not shown). In this case, the operating portion of the fastener engages with the first protrusion 53A to assume the clamping position. When the fastener is in the clamping position, the fish-attracting member engaged with the arrangement portion 54 is clamped and fixed by the clamping portion.

[0071] (Fourth embodiment) Next, the artificial bait 1C according to the fourth embodiment will be described in detail with reference to Figs. The artificial bait 1C of the fourth embodiment is obtained by modifying the shape of the rear body section 50B of the above-mentioned third embodiment. The pipe 6 of the fourth embodiment comprises an attachment tube section 61 (engagement pipe) attached to the head 2, and a pipe body 60 fitted to the outside of the attachment tube section 61. The pipe body 60 is provided separably in the front-rear direction X, and the front body section 63 (engagement pipe) fits into the attachment tube section 61. The rear body section 64 (split pipe) is inserted from the rear of the front body section 63 and is separably engaged therewith.

[0072] The rear fuselage 64 has a U-shaped cross section. character and an engaging piece 66 (engaging member) that clamps the fish-attracting member against the semi-cylinder member 65 by elastic force. The fishing line 20 is inserted into the U-shaped groove of the semi-cylindrical member 65. A mounting portion 67 is formed at the rear of both circumferential edges 65a of the semi-cylindrical member 65 in the pipe axis F direction, and a protrusion 68 is provided on the front circumferential edge 65a of the mounting portion 67 with a recess 65b therebetween. The mounting portion 67 is provided with a number of small protrusions 67a.

[0073] The engagement piece 66 is connected to the front end of the semi-cylindrical member 65 by a joint hinge 65c so as to be able to open and close freely. The engagement piece 66 is made of resin and is molded integrally with the semi-cylindrical member 65. The engagement piece 66 is framed in a square shape and is configured to be held at the clamping position P1 by fitting onto the outside of a protrusion 68 of the semi-cylindrical member 65 due to the elastic force of the resin.

[0074] When setting the fish attracting members on the pipe 6, first the engaging pieces 66 on the rear body section 64 are opened to the non-clamping position P2, and the fish attracting members are placed on the arrangement section 67. Next, the engaging pieces 66 are closed against the semi-cylindrical member 65 to the clamping position P1, whereby the fish attracting members are clamped and fixed between the arrangement section 67 and the engaging pieces 66. Thereafter, the rear body section 64, to which the fish attracting members are fixed, is inserted into the front body section 63, which has been attached to the head 2 in advance, and the setting of the pipe 6 is completed. Furthermore, when replacing the fish-attracting members, for example, the clamped state can be easily released by detaching the rear body section 64 from the front body section 63, and then opening the engagement pieces 66 and switching from the clamping position P1 to the non-clamping position P2.

[0075] With the artificial bait 1C according to the fourth embodiment, the operation of winding a fish-attracting member around the pipe 6 is unnecessary, which makes the operation simpler. Furthermore, in the artificial lure 1C according to the fourth embodiment, the rear body section 64 of the pipe body 60 is configured to be separably fitted to the front body section 63, so that when a fish is caught, only the rear body section 64 can be removed and separated from the front body section 63. This makes it possible to prevent breakage of the fish-attracting member when a fish is caught. Furthermore, by fitting the separated rear body section 64 to the front body section 63, the artificial lure 1C can be easily reassembled to its original state.

[0076] Although the embodiments of the artificial bait according to the present invention have been described above, these embodiments are presented as examples and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. The embodiments can be implemented in various other forms, and various omissions, substitutions, and modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the invention. The embodiments and their modifications include, for example, those that can be easily imagined by a person skilled in the art, those that are substantially the same, those that are within the scope of equivalents, and the like.

[0077] For example, in the above embodiment, the fasteners 34 and 55 are used as the engaging members, but the fasteners 34 are not limited to such shapes. For example, the recess of the fastener 34 is the opening 34a, which is a through hole shape, but the fastener 34 may be a non-opening shaped member that is recessed so as to be able to engage with the protrusion 35. Further, in the above embodiment, metal members are used as the fasteners 34, 55, but non-metallic members can also be used.

[0078] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the engaging portion 344 of the engaging member (fastener 34) is configured to engage with the side groove 35a of the second convex portion 35B, but the present invention is not limited to this type of engaging structure. For example, other engaging members may be used that are biased in a direction to clamp the fish-attracting members 4 between themselves and the arrangement portion 33 by the elastic force of a spring material or the like. In this case, the fish-attracting members 4 arranged in the arrangement portion 33 are clamped by the engaging member biased by the elastic force, and the clamping position of the fish-attracting members 4 can be maintained by the elastic force of the engaging member.

[0079] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the arrangement portion 33 is provided on the protrusion 35, and is arranged between a pair of protrusions (first protrusion 35A, second protrusion 35B), but is not limited to being arranged on such a protrusion 35. In short, it is sufficient that the arrangement portion can be engaged in a state in which the fish-attracting member to be arranged is clamped by the engagement portion of the engagement member.

[0080] Moreover, the artificial bait 1 of the above-mentioned embodiment is suitable for fishing targeting not only sea bream but also various fish such as hairtail, flounder, rockfish, flathead, etc. Furthermore, the head 2 of this embodiment can also be used for sinking other swinging bodies and live baits.
