Quick-Release Lure Weight Connector for Fast Tackle Changes
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing fishing lure systems require complex and time-consuming processes to change weights and hooks, leading to inefficiency and increased environmental impact due to the need for multiple equipment pieces and potential tear-offs.
Innovation Solution
A fishing lure-fishing line connection system with three stationary eyelets, including a hanging weight eyelet, a fishing lure eyelet, and a fishing line eyelet, formed from a single wire, allowing for quick and secure attachment and detachment of weights and lures without the need for additional tools.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If traditional connection systems are used to attach weights and lures, then secure connection is achieved, but the process becomes time-consuming and complex
Solution Approach 1:
The connection system is divided into separate functional eyelets: a first eyelet for the fishing line, a second eyelet for the lure, and a third eyelet for the weight. This segmentation allows independent attachment and detachment of each component, enabling quick changes without affecting other parts of the system.
Solution Approach 2:
The weight body serves multiple functions: it provides weighting, acts as a connection hub with multiple eyelets, and enables quick changes of both lures and weights. The single integrated weight body with multiple eyelets replaces the need for separate connection mechanisms for each component.
2Device complexity
If traditional connection systems are used, then connection strength is maintained, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
Multiple connection functions are merged into a single weight body with three stationary eyelets. Instead of using separate clips, rings, or fasteners for the line, lure, and weight, all connections are integrated into one robust weight body structure, reducing the total number of components while maintaining connection reliability.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple separate equipment pieces are used for different fishing configurations, then adaptability is improved, but the quantity of equipment increases
Solution Approach 1:
The weight body is designed as a universal connection platform with three stationary eyelets that can accommodate various lures and weight configurations. This single multi-functional component replaces the need for multiple specialized connection devices, allowing anglers to adapt to different fishing conditions without carrying extensive equipment.

AI summary
The invention relates to a fishing lure-fishing line connection system for connecting a fishing line to a fishing lure, wherein at least three eyelets are provided on a weight body. A hanging weight eyelet is provided for attaching a hanging weight, a fishing lure eyelet is provided for attaching a fishing lure, in particular in the form of an artificial lure, and a fishing line eyelet is provided for attaching a fishing line. The eyelets are stationary relative to one another. The hanging weight eyelets and the fishing lure eyelet are configured as open quick-release eyelets which are self-locking to prevent unintentional unhooking, and wherein the weight body is arranged between the fishing lure eyelet and the fishing line eyelet.
