Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a fishing sinker. In particular, the present invention relates to a fishing sinker for catching fish on land or on a ship. Background Technology

[0002] Fishing, which generally developed as a means of making a living by catching fish in freshwater or the sea, has today established itself as a popular sport and is widely practiced by people of all ages and genders as an excellent way to spend their leisure time.

[0003] This type of fishing is carried out by preparing tools such as a fishing rod, line, and hook, attaching bait to the hook, and catching fish by causing them to bite the bait and get hooked.

[0004] And for fishing, a fishing hook and a fishing float are selected by considering the fishing location and target fish species, and a fishing weight is attached to the fishing line to position the fishing hook in an appropriate position according to the buoyancy of the fishing float, thereby preparing the fishing rig.

[0005] A fishing sinker is generally connected to pass through the fishing line in the vertical direction so that it can move together with the fishing line, and as in reel fishing, the fishing hook and the sinker are formed as a bundle and connected to the fishing line.

[0006] However, such conventional fishing sinkers often descend horizontally while lying down underwater during boat fishing, which caused the problem of getting tangled with the fishing lines of people fishing alongside them.

[0007] In addition, conventional fishing sinkers had a problem in that the impact generated when they hit the bottom, rocks, or gravel while descending underwater caused the target fish species to flee to other areas. Prior art literature

[0008] Republic of Korea Published Utility Model Publication No. 20-2007-0001247 (Date of publication: November 29, 2007) The problem to be solved

[0041] FIG. 1 is a perspective view illustrating a fishing weight according to one embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a plan view illustrating FIG. 1 in a plan view, FIG. 3 is a left side view illustrating FIG. 1 from the left side, and FIG. 4 is a usage state view illustrating FIG. 1 being used underwater.

[0042] As illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 4, a fishing weight according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a body (100), a top part (200), a bottom part (300), and a wing part (400).

[0043] The body (100) forms the body of the fishing weight and can stand upright underwater. The body (100) is formed to be long in the vertical direction and may be an iron weight made of iron (Fe) or lead (Pb) material having a predetermined weight. The body (100) can descend downward underwater by forming a predetermined weight. The body (100) may form a connecting part (110) at the top for connecting a fishing line (W).

[0044] The top section (200) may have buoyancy that allows it to float on water. The top section (200) may be formed on the upper part of the body (100). The top section (200) may be formed from one or more materials such as ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and plastic, and may be attached to the upper part of the body (100) to wrap around the upper part of the body (100). The top section (200) may be formed to be larger in size than the bottom section (300). That is, as the buoyant top section (200) is formed to be larger than the bottom section (300), the buoyancy of the upper part of the body (100) is made greater than that of the lower part of the body (100), so that the body (100) can descend vertically in an upright state without tilting in the water.

[0045] The bottom portion (300) can absorb shock. The bottom portion (300) can be formed at the bottom of the body (100). The bottom portion (300) can be formed from one or more elastic materials, such as ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), silicone, and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The bottom portion (300) can have a ring-shaped ring portion (310) formed at the bottom. Since the bottom portion (300) is formed from an elastic material capable of absorbing shock, when the body (100) descends underwater and touches the bottom, the shock generated between the body (100) and the bottom is minimized, thereby preventing nearby target fish species from being startled and fleeing to another place.

[0046] The ring portion (310) can be fixed by hanging bait or attractant for the target fish species for fishing. That is, by dropping it into the water with bait or attractant attached to the ring portion (310), the attraction effect for the target fish species can be increased.

[0047] The wing portion (400) can cause the fishing sinker according to one embodiment of the present invention to descend in an upright state underwater. The wing portion (400) may be formed in multiple numbers, more preferably four numbers, on the circumference of the top portion (200). The multiple wing portions (400) may be spaced apart from each other at equal intervals along the circumference of the top portion (200). Additionally, each of the multiple wing portions (400) may be formed convexly in a vertical direction from the top to the bottom of the circumference of the top portion (200). Furthermore, each of the multiple wing portions (400) may be formed with a rounded shape such that the height is lowest at the top and bottom and gradually increases towards the middle portion between the top and bottom. The wing portion (400) can prevent the fishing line from getting tangled by adjusting the flow of water around the body (100) when the body (100) descends, thereby preventing the body (100) from lying horizontally or rotating. Additionally, the wing portion (400) can increase the descent speed of the body (100), thereby shortening the time it takes for the body (100) to reach the water where the target fish species is located.

[0048] Additionally, a fishing sinker comprising a body (100), a top part (200), a bottom part (300), and a wing part (400) may be coated with a fluorescent material that absorbs light and emits light in dark places. The fluorescent material emits light in dark water to attract target fish species and can increase visibility so that the user can easily find the fishing sinker in dark places.

[0049] FIG. 5 is a bottom view showing a fishing weight according to another embodiment of the present invention.

[0050] A fishing weight according to another embodiment of the present invention may include a body (100), a top part (200), a bottom part (300), and a wing part (400).

[0051] Since the body (100), top part (200), and wing part (400) are identical to the fishing weight according to one embodiment of the present invention, a redundant description is omitted.

[0052] Referring to FIGS. 1 and FIGS. 5, the bottom portion (300) can absorb shock. The bottom portion (300) can be formed at the bottom of the body (100). The bottom portion (300) can be formed from one or more elastic materials, such as ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), silicone, and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The bottom portion (300) can form a receiving portion (330) that is open to the bottom inside. Since the bottom portion (300) is formed from an elastic material capable of absorbing shock, when the body (100) descends underwater and touches the bottom, the shock generated between the body (100) and the bottom can be minimized, thereby preventing nearby target fish species from being startled and fleeing to another place.

[0053] The receiving section (330) can accommodate bait or attractant for target fish species for fishing. That is, when a fishing weight is lowered into the water with bait or attractant contained in the receiving section (330), the attraction effect of target fish species can be increased through the open bottom of the receiving section (330).
