Fishing Rod Cover Adjustment for Stable Bag Storage
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Fishing rods that are designed to be compact for storage often move around in bags, leading to potential damage or breakage due to gaps formed during transportation.
Innovation Solution
A fishing rod with a cylindrical cover member that can be attached to the original rod, featuring an adjustment mechanism to adjust the storage dimension by changing the attachment position, preventing rods from protruding and allowing the cover member to function as a rear grip when detached.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Volume of moving object
If the fishing rod is designed with a compact structure for storage, then the storage dimension is reduced, but the fishing rod moves around in the bag and may be damaged
Solution Approach 1:
The cover member is designed to be adjustable along the original rod, allowing the storage dimension to be dynamically changed according to different bag sizes. This adjustability ensures the fishing rod can adapt to various storage spaces while maintaining stability and preventing movement during transportation.
Solution Approach 2:
The attachment position of the cover member on the original rod can be changed to adjust the storage dimension. By changing this parameter, the fishing rod can be optimized for different storage requirements while ensuring it fits snugly in the bag without moving, thus preventing damage.
2Volume of moving object
If the cover member is attached to the original rod to prevent protrusion, then the storage dimension is reduced, but the attachment position needs to be adjustable for different storage sizes
Solution Approach 1:
The original rod is divided into multiple sections with attachment positions at different locations. The cover member can be attached at any of these segmented positions, allowing adjustment of the storage dimension without requiring a complex continuous adjustment mechanism.
Solution Approach 2:
The cover member serves multiple functions: it prevents rod protrusion during storage, acts as a grip when detached, and its adjustable attachment position allows it to adapt to different storage dimensions. This multi-functionality reduces the need for additional complex adjustment mechanisms.
3Ease of operation
If the cover member is used as a rear grip when detached, then the operability at use is improved, but the structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The cover member is designed to serve dual purposes: preventing rod protrusion during storage when attached, and functioning as a rear grip when detached. This multi-functionality improves ease of operation without requiring separate components, as the same cover member adapts to different uses.
Solution Approach 2:
The functions of the storage cover and the rear grip are merged into a single component. The cover member's design allows it to effectively perform both the protective function during storage and the ergonomic grip function during use, simplifying the overall structure.

AI summary
A fishing rod capable of reducing a dimension when stored, the fishing rod having a structure that is difficult to move even when the fishing rod is accommodated in a bag or the like. A fishing rod of the invention includes a cylindrical cover member that is attached to an original rod that stores a plurality of rods so that the plurality of rods do not protrude. The cover member can constitute a rear grip to be attached to and detached from the original rod, and the original rod and the cover member are provided with an adjustment mechanism capable of adjusting a dimension when stored by changing an attachment position of the cover member when the cover member is attached to the original rod.
