Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a fishing tackle and a fishing sinker used for fishing. [Background technology]

[0002] BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, in the field of fishing, so-called lure fishing is widely known in which an artificial bait called a lure is used to catch a target fish such as a black bass.

[0003] One example of a lure used in lure fishing is a soft lure, which is a live bait-shaped worm made of a soft material. A soft lure is used, for example, by inserting a hook into the lure's body. To adjust the weight of the soft lure, a weight called a nail sinker is sometimes inserted into the soft lure.

[0004] Further, a sinker for a fishing lure having a hook-holding part embedded inside the soft lure has been conventionally known (see Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-325468 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] However, when a hook is directly pierced through a soft lure, the hook may come off the lure when the lure is actuated by manipulating the rod or when an angler attempts to retrieve a lure that has become caught on an underwater obstacle, making it impossible to retrieve the lure or the nail sinker, which may have a negative impact on the fish and the natural environment. To prevent hook disengagement, a sheet-like metal piece is inserted into the soft lure and the hook is passed through the metal piece. This prevents the soft lure from splitting or breaking, thereby increasing the rate at which the lure and the nail sinker can be retrieved. However, if the hook comes off the lure along with the metal piece, it becomes impossible to retrieve not only the lure but also the nail sinker. Another possible way to prevent hook disengagement is to use a lure sinker as described in the aforementioned patent document. However, conventional lure sinkers can only be attached to the end of a soft lure, preventing anglers from freely adjusting the hook's attachment position relative to the soft lure or the balance of the soft lure in the water.

[0007] The present invention aims to provide a fishing tackle and a fishing sinker that prevent a lure made of a soft material from splitting or breaking, and that allow an angler to adjust the hook attachment position and underwater balance as desired. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] (1) A fishing tackle according to one aspect of the present invention includes a first connector and a second connector formed of linear members. The first connector and the second connector each have a first opening formed at an end, a second opening formed at a position spaced a predetermined distance from the first opening, and a connecting portion connecting the first opening and the second opening and formed by two opposing linear members continuing from the first opening and the second opening, respectively. The first openings of the first connector and the second connector are connected to each other, and the first openings of each connector are configured to be positionable in the second opening of the other connector through the connecting portion of the other connector.

[0009] (2) In the fishing tool, a first inner diameter of the inner hole of the first opening and a second inner diameter of the inner hole of the second opening are larger than an outer diameter of the linear member, and the second inner diameter is equal to or smaller than the first inner diameter.

[0010] (3) In the connecting portion of the fishing tackle, the distance between the two linear members is smaller than the outer diameter of the linear members.

[0011] (4) In the fishing tackle, at least one of the first connector and the second connector has a third opening at an end opposite to the first opening.

[0012] (5) In the fishing tackle, at least one of the first connector and the second connector has a cut portion that is partially cut off.

[0013] (6) A fishing sinker according to another aspect of the present invention includes a fishing tackle having a first connector and a second connector formed of linear members, and a sinker body connected to the fishing connector. The first connector and the second connector each have a first opening formed at an end, a second opening formed at a predetermined distance from the first opening, a connecting portion connecting the first opening and the second opening and formed by two opposing linear members continuing from the first opening and the second opening, respectively, and a third opening provided in at least one of the first connector or the second connector and formed at an end opposite the first opening. In the fishing sinker, the sinker body is locked to the third opening by a locking portion.

[0014] (7) In the fishing sinker, the third opening is formed in each of the first connector and the second connector, and the weight body is engaged with one of the third openings, and the other third opening is configured to allow a fishing hook to be inserted therethrough. [Effects of the Invention]

[0015] According to the present invention, it is possible to prevent a lure made of a soft material from splitting or breaking, and also to allow the angler to adjust the hook attachment position and underwater balance as desired. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0017] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Note that the embodiments described below are merely examples of the present invention and do not limit the technical scope of the present invention.

[0018] [First embodiment] Figures 1 and 2 are perspective views showing a fishing gear 10 according to a first embodiment of the present invention, where Figure 1 shows the fishing gear 10 in a first connected position and Figure 2 shows the fishing gear 10 in a second connected position.

[0019] The fishing gear 10 shown in FIG. 1 is a fishing gear (fishing tackle) used in lure fishing such as bass fishing and saltwater lure fishing by being partially or completely inserted into an artificial worm 100 (see FIGS. 9 and 12) made of soft resin (soft material). Specifically, this fishing gear is used to make it difficult for a fishing hook 90 (see FIG. 7) to come off the artificial worm 100, to increase the weight of the artificial worm 100 to extend the casting distance of the artificial worm 100, or to adjust the buoyancy of the artificial worm 100 in water by changing the weight of the artificial worm 100. In other words, the fishing gear 10 engages with the fishing hook 90 while attached to the artificial worm 100, thereby preventing the fishing hook 90 from coming off. Furthermore, the fishing gear 10 functions as a sinker when attached to the artificial worm 100. Furthermore, the fishing tackle 10, when partly or entirely inserted into the artificial worm 100, serves to connect other fishing tackle (such as a fishing sinker or a fishing decoration member).

[0020] The lures to which the fishing gear 10 can be applied are not limited to the artificial worms 100 formed in the shape of worms such as earthworms or bloodworms, but may also be formed in the shape of, for example, baitfish such as prey fish, or may be formed in the shape of aquatic creatures such as shrimp or crabs that are preyed upon by target fish. Furthermore, the lure is not limited to imitations of living creatures, and its shape is not limited to block, rope, or spherical, as long as it is of a size that can be preyed upon by target fish.

[0021] 1 and 2, fishing equipment 10 is broadly divided into a connector 11 and a connector 12. Either connector 11 or connector 12 is an example of a first connector of the present invention, and the other is an example of a second connector of the present invention. In this embodiment, connector 11 and connector 12 are formed to have the same shape and the same size.

[0022] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the fishing gear 10 has a configuration in which a connector 11 and a connector 12 are connected to each other. Figure 1 shows a first connected position in which the connector 11 and the connector 12 are connected to each other at a first opening 21 described below. Figure 2 shows a second connected position in which the first opening 21 of one connector 11 is positioned in a second opening 22 of the other connector 12 and connected to each other.

[0023] Fig. 3 is a front view and a side view showing the configuration of couplers 11 and 12. As shown in Fig. 3, couplers 11 and 12 are formed of linear wire members 14 (linear members) made of metal or the like and having a circular cross section, and have a first opening 21, a second opening 22, a connecting portion 23, and a third opening 25.

[0024] The connectors 11 and 12 may be made of stainless steel, brass, steel, etc. The wire member 14 may be made of piano wire, hard steel wire, or stainless steel wire as defined in the Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS G 4308).

[0025] The connectors 11 and 12 are formed by bending a wire member 14 and welding both ends of the wire member 14 together.

[0026] In the fishing equipment 10 of this embodiment, the connector 11 and the connector 12 are connected to each other at their first openings 21, and the end 21A of each first opening 21 is configured to be able to pass through the connecting portion 23 of the other side and be positioned in the second opening 22 of the other side.

[0027] The first opening 21 is formed at the end of one side (upper side in FIG. 3) of the fishing gear 10. The first opening 21 is formed in a roughly annular shape, and has a roughly circular opening 211 with an inner diameter D1 (an example of the first inner diameter of the present invention) on its inner side.

[0028] The second opening 22 is formed at a position spaced a predetermined distance from the first opening 21. Specifically, the second opening 22 is formed at a position such that the distance from its center P02 to the center P01 of the first opening 21 is L1. The second opening 22 has an opening 221 inside.

[0029] The openings 211 and 221 are each formed to a size that allows the wire member 14 to be inserted therethrough. In this embodiment, the inner diameter D1 of the opening 211 is larger than the outer diameter D3 of the wire member 14, and the width W2 (an example of the second inner diameter of the present invention) of the portion of the opening 221 where the size in the width direction 5 is greatest is larger than the outer diameter D3 of the wire member 14. Furthermore, the width W2 is equal to or smaller than the inner diameter D1.

[0030] The opening 221 includes at least a space equivalent to a circle having a diameter equal to the width W2 (the portion indicated by the broken line in FIG. 3).

[0031] The connecting portion 23 is a portion that connects the first opening 21 and the second opening 22. The connecting portion 23 is formed between the first opening 21 and the second opening 22, and is configured by two wire members 14A, 14A that are provided so as to bridge the first opening 21 and the second opening 22. The two wire members 14A, 14A face each other in the width direction 5. Each of the two wire members 14A, 14A is formed in an arc shape that bulges inward in the width direction 5. The width W1 of a narrow portion 231 that is the narrowest in the region sandwiched between the two wire members 14A, 14A is smaller than the outer diameter D3 of the wire member 14; for example, the width W1 is approximately half of the outer diameter D3.

[0032] The third opening 25 is formed at the other end (upper side in FIG. 3) of the connectors 11, 12. In other words, the third opening 25 is formed at the end of the connectors 11, 12 opposite to the first opening 21.

[0033] The connectors 11 and 12 have an extension portion 26 that extends from the second opening 22 toward the third opening 25. The extension portion 26 is a portion that connects the second opening 22 and the third opening 25. The extension portion 26 is a portion that connects the second opening 22 and the third opening 25. The extension portion 26 is formed between the second opening 22 and the third opening 25, and is composed of two wire members 14B and 14B that are provided to bridge between the second opening 22 and the third opening 25.

[0034] The third opening 25 is formed in a roughly annular shape, and has a roughly circular opening 251 with an inner diameter D2 on its inner side.

[0035] Third opening 25 is formed at a position such that the distance from its center P03 to the center P02 of second opening 22 is L2. In this embodiment, distance L2 between the centers of second opening 22 and third opening 25 is longer than distance L1 between the centers of first opening 21 and second opening 22. In other words, third opening 25 is formed at a position such that distance L2 is longer than distance L1.

[0036] The opening 251 is formed to a size that allows the insertion of a fishing hook 90 (see FIG. 7) used in the artificial worm 100 (see FIG. 7). Alternatively, the opening 251 is formed to a size that allows the attachment of a ring-shaped portion 42 (see FIG. 8) of a fishing sinker 50 described below.

[0037] The width W3 of the narrow portion 261 in the extending portion 26 is smaller than the outer diameter of the fishing hook 90 (see FIG. 7) and the annular portion 42 (see FIG. 8) so that the fishing hook 90 and the annular portion 42 cannot pass through. The narrow portion 261 is the narrowest part in the area sandwiched between the two wire members 14B, 14B. In this embodiment, the narrow portion 261 brings the two wire members 14B, 14B into contact with each other.

[0038] Each of the connectors 11 and 12 has a slit 27 (one example of a cut portion of the present invention) formed by cutting the wire member 14. The slit 27 is a portion that is opened and widened when the separated connectors 11 and 12 are connected together. The slit 27 may be formed in at least one of the connectors 11 and 12. Of course, the slit 27 may be formed in both the connectors 11 and 12.

[0039] In this embodiment, the slit 27 is formed in one of the two wire members 14B that make up the extension portion 26 of the couplers 11 and 12. As a result, when the user pulls the wire member 14B of the extension portion 26, the slit 27 opens and closes. In this state, the first opening 21 of the other coupler is inserted into the slit 27, thereby engaging the first openings 21 with each other, as shown in FIG. 1 . In other words, the couplers 11 and 12 can be connected. Furthermore, the couplers 11 and 12 can be separated by removing the first opening 21 of one of the couplers 11 and 12 from the first opening 21 of the other coupler through the opened slit 27.

[0040] Because the connectors 11, 12 of the fishing gear 10 are configured in this manner, when a force is applied in a direction that brings the connectors 11, 12 closer together in a state in which the first openings 21 of the connectors 11, 12 are connected to each other in the first connected position (see FIG. 1) as shown in FIG. 4, the end 21A of the first opening 21 enters the narrow portion 231 of the connecting portion 23. At this time, the narrow portion 231 is widened by the end 21A that has received the force, and guides the end 21A to the second opening 22. Then, when the end 21A passes through the narrow portion 231 and reaches the opening 221 of the second opening 22, the narrow portion 231 returns to its original state, preventing the end 21A from being inserted into the first opening 21.

[0041] When the fishing tackle 10 is in the first connected position shown in FIG. 1 , the coupler 12 can rotate relative to the coupler 11 within a rotation range θ1 around a center P01, as shown in FIG. 5 . The rotation range θ1 is the range up to when the narrow portion 231 of the connecting portion 23 of the coupler 12 abuts against the wire member 14A of the connecting portion 23 of the coupler 11. The rotation range θ1 is determined by the design values ​​of each dimension, such as the inner diameter D1, the width W1, and the outer diameter D3. However, the coupler 12 can rotate at least 270 degrees relative to the coupler 11. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing the movable range of the couplers 11, 12 when the fishing tackle 10 is in the first connected position. For ease of explanation, FIG. 5 shows a state in which the end 21A of the coupler 12 is positioned at the center P01 of the first opening 21 of the coupler 11.

[0042] 2, the connector 12 can only rotate relative to the connector 11 within a rotation range θ2 around a center P01, as shown in FIG. 6. This is because, in the second coupling position, the end 21A of the connector 12 abuts against the wire member 14A of the connection portion 23 of the connector 11 at a position P11, and the narrow portion 231 of the connector 12 abuts against the wire member 14 of the first opening 21 of the connector 11 at a position P12. In other words, the connector 12 abuts against the connector 11 at two points, positions P11 and P12, which are spaced apart in the longitudinal direction of the connector 11, and therefore the connector 12 can only rotate relative to the connector 11 within a rotation range θ2 which is significantly narrower than the rotation range θ1. The rotation range θ2 is determined by the design values ​​of the distance L1, the inner diameter D1, the width W1, the width W2, the outer diameter D3, etc., but the connector 12 can only rotate within a maximum range of approximately 30 degrees relative to the connector 11. Note that Figure 6 is a diagram showing the movable range of the connectors 11 and 12 when the fishing tackle 10 is in the second connected position.

[0043] For example, the closer the width W1 is to the outer diameter D3 of the wire member 14, the smaller the rotation range θ2 becomes, and the more restricted the movable range becomes. Also, the narrower the width W1 is, the more restricted the rotation range θ2 can be.

[0044] When the rotation range of the connectors 11, 12 is limited to the rotation range θ2, the user can easily hold the fishing gear 10 and insert the fishing gear 10 into the artificial worm 100 while holding it with their fingers. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 7(A), the fishing gear 10 in the second connecting position can be reliably inserted into the artificial worm 100. Furthermore, because the fishing gear 10 maintains the second connecting position inside the artificial worm 100, the user can pierce the fishing hook 90 into the artificial worm 100 and easily insert the fishing hook 90 into the opening 251 of the third opening 25 inside the artificial worm 100.

[0045] In the second connected position, the insertion portion 101 of the artificial worm 100 into which the fishing gear 10 is inserted can only bend within a rotation range θ2. In other words, the bending of the insertion portion 101 is more limited than that of other portions of the artificial worm 100. When the artificial worm 100 is cast into water in this state and the fishing rod is operated, the artificial worm 100 will perform an action in which the bending of only the insertion portion 101 is limited.

[0046] As shown in Figure 7(B), with the fishing gear 10 attached inside the artificial worm 100, by pulling the connectors 11, 12 in directions that separate them, the fishing gear 10 is returned from the second connected position to the first connected position. This increases the range of motion of the connectors 11, 12, and removes restrictions on the bending of the insertion portion 101 of the artificial worm 100. As a result, when the artificial worm 100 in the first connected position is cast into water and the rod is operated, the entire artificial worm 100 bends evenly, and the artificial worm 100 performs the action of the original artificial worm 100.

[0047] In the first embodiment described above, the third opening 25 is provided in both the connector 11 and the connector 12, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration. When the fishing tackle 10 is used as a sinker itself to be attached to the artificial worm 100, it is not necessary to provide the third opening 25 in either the connector 11 or the connector 12.

[0048] Furthermore, when the third opening 25 is provided in the fishing gear 10 to fasten the fishing hook 90 to the fishing gear 10, the third opening 25 only needs to be provided in at least one of the connector 11 or the connector 12. However, if the third opening 25 is provided in both the connector 11 and the connector 12, this is preferable because it increases the options for where the fishing hook 90 can be fastened.

[0049] In the above embodiment, an example was described in which the connectors 11, 12 are configured with the metal wire member 14, but the material and cross-sectional shape of the wire member 14 are not limited to those configured as described above, as long as it has the strength required for lure fishing. For example, the wire member 14 is not limited to being made of metal, and it is also possible to use a resin wire made of a synthetic resin such as polyacetal or polycarbonate, which has excellent strength, rigidity, and hardness and is highly corrosion-resistant.

[0050] The fishing tool 10 may also be manufactured using a 3D printer. In this case, the connectors 11 and 12 may be made of a material that can be shaped using a 3D printer, such as ABS resin, PLA resin, ASA resin, PP resin, acrylic resin, or thermoplastic polyurethane. The connectors 11 and 12 can also be made of a metal material using a metal 3D printer.

[0051] [Second embodiment] A fishing sinker 50 according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to Fig. 8 and Fig. 9. Fig. 8 is a diagram showing the fishing sinker 50, and Fig. 9 is a diagram showing the fishing sinker 50 attached to a pseudo worm 100.

[0052] As shown in FIG. 8, the fishing sinker 50 includes the fishing tackle 10 described in the first embodiment above and a sinker 40.

[0053] The sinker 40 has a weight body 41 and an annular portion 42 for locking (an example of a locking portion of the present invention).

[0054] The weight body 41 is a thin rod-shaped body made of a metal with a relatively high specific gravity. Examples of materials that can be used for the weight body 41 include lead, tungsten, brass, and iron. The weight body 41 determines the weight required for the sinker 40, and is sized accordingly.

[0055] The weight body 41 is formed in a thin rod shape as a whole, and is formed in a size that can be inserted into the inside of the pseudo worm 100.

[0056] The annular portion 42 is provided at the tip of the sinker body 41. The annular portion 42 is formed by bending a steel wire. The annular portion 42 is engaged with the opening 251 of the third opening 25 of the fishing gear 10. The annular portion 42 is inserted through the slit 27 into the third opening 25. Note that the annular portion 42 is not limited to being annular, and may be a hook-shaped portion that can be attached by being hooked onto the third opening 25.

[0057] With the fishing sinker 50 configured in this manner, the fishing gear 10 can be easily inserted into the artificial worm 100 with the fishing gear 10 in the second connecting position, as shown in Figure 9(A). Furthermore, since the fishing gear 10 maintains the second connecting position inside the artificial worm 100, the user can pierce the fishing hook 90 into the artificial worm 100 and easily insert the fishing hook 90 into the opening 251 of the third opening 25 inside the artificial worm 100.

[0058] 9(B), when the fishing gear 10 is attached inside the artificial worm 100, the connectors 11, 12 are pulled apart, and the fishing gear 10 is returned from the second connected position to the first connected position. This increases the range of motion of the connectors 11, 12, and removes the restriction on the bending of the artificial worm 100. As a result, when the artificial worm 100 returned to the first connected position is cast into water and the rod is operated, the entire artificial worm 100 bends evenly, and the artificial worm 100 performs the original action of the artificial worm 100.

[0059] [Third embodiment] A fishing gear 10A according to a third embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to Figs. 10 to 12. Fig. 10 is a diagram showing the fishing gear 10A. Fig. 11 is a diagram showing a connector 61 of the fishing gear 10A. Fig. 12 is a diagram showing the fishing gear 10A attached to a pseudo worm 100. In the following description, the same components as those of the fishing gear 10 described above will be denoted by the same reference numerals as those used in the first embodiment, and description thereof will be omitted.

[0060] As shown in Fig. 10, the fishing equipment 10A is broadly composed of three connectors 60 (61, 62, 63). In this embodiment, the connectors 61, 62, 63 are formed to have the same shape and the same size.

[0061] As shown in Fig. 10, the fishing gear 10A has a configuration in which three connectors 60 (61, 62, 63) are connected to one another. The number of connectors connected is merely an example, and the fishing gear 10A may have two connectors 60 connected to one another, or three or more connectors 60 connected to one another. In this embodiment, the fishing gear 10A will be described taking as an example a configuration in which the number of connectors connected is three.

[0062] 11, connector 60 is formed of linear wire member 14 (linear member), and has first opening 21, second opening 22, connecting portion 23, and extending portion 26. Connector 60 also has fifth opening 72 formed continuously with extending portion 26, connecting portion 73, and fourth opening 71.

[0063] The connector 60 of this embodiment is formed in a shape that is line-symmetrical with respect to the symmetry axis H1 that passes through the narrow portion 261 of the extending portion 26. In other words, the fourth opening 71 is formed in the same shape as the first opening 21, the fifth opening 72 is formed in the same shape as the second opening 22, and the connecting portion 73 is formed in the same shape as the connecting portion 23.

[0064] In the connector 60, the slit 27 is formed in the wire member 14B of the extending portion .

[0065] With the fishing equipment 10A configured in this manner, not only a configuration in which two connectors 60 are connected, but also a configuration in which three or more connectors 60 are connected can be realized.

[0066] 12(A), the fishing gear 10A in the second connected position with the connectors 60 connected can be easily inserted into the artificial worm 100. Furthermore, since the fishing gear 10 maintains the second connected position inside the artificial worm 100, the user can pierce the fishing hook 90 into the artificial worm 100 and easily insert the fishing hook 90 into either the first opening 21 or the fourth opening 71 of the two connectors 60 located at both ends of the fishing gear 10A inside the artificial worm 100.

[0067] 12(B), when the fishing gear 10A is attached inside the artificial worm 100, the connecting devices 60 are pulled apart, and the fishing gear 10A is returned from the second connected position to the first connected position in which the connection is released. This increases the range of motion of the connecting devices 60, and eliminates restrictions on the bending of the artificial worm 100. As a result, when the artificial worm 100 returned to the first connected position is cast into water and the rod is operated, the entire artificial worm 100 bends evenly, and the artificial worm 100 performs the original action of the artificial worm 100.
