Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a reel leg fixing device used for a fishing rod, and more particularly, to a reel body for mounting a reel mounting leg on a sheet body on which a fishing reel is mounted. A pair of hoods for holding the mounting legs on the mounting surface are disposed facing each other along the longitudinal direction of the reel leg mounting surface, and at least one of the pair of hoods is required to be mounted on the reel leg mounting surface. The present invention relates to a reel leg fixing device formed as a movable hood positionable.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In general, a reel leg fixing device for a fishing rod includes a reel leg mounting surface on which a mounting leg of a fishing reel is mounted.
The reel leg mounting surface is provided so as to face each other along the axial direction, each has an opening for receiving the mounting leg, and one of the openings moves with respect to the reel leg mounting surface and is fixed at a required position. A pair of hoods, which are movable hoods. The reel is mounted on the fishing rod by holding the mounting leg between the pair of hoods.

[0003] Such a reel leg fixing device is of a nut type that moves and fixes a movable hood by a tightening operation of a nut member, or a lever type device that moves and fixes a movable hood by an operation of raising and lowering a lever. Conventionally, various types are known. Also, as for the reel leg mounting surface, those provided on sheet bodies of various shapes such as a ring shape and a plate shape are known. Among such reel leg fixing devices, the lever type is a nut type because the mounting hood is pressed against the reel leg mounting surface by moving the movable hood in the axial direction by hand force. It is difficult to apply such a large force to the mounting leg. Further, the nut type cannot support the mounting leg from the side even if it can apply a large force along the axial direction.

For this reason, for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 56-18286
In this publication, a long hole is formed through a plate-shaped reel sheet body, and a projection of an elastic member disposed on the fishing rod side on the back surface is projected from the reel leg mounting surface through the long hole. Disclosed is a fishing rod reel sheet that supports a mounting leg at a portion.
The reel seat can prevent rattling of the mounting leg of the reel due to the cushion effect of the projection disposed between the mounting leg and the reel seat body.

[0005]

However, when a load acts on the reel, for example, when a fishing line is wound up, the load acts on the mounting leg and deforms the projection of the elastic member. The mounting leg moves with respect to the leg mounting surface. Since the protrusion of the elastic member only presses the mounting leg in a direction away from the reel leg mounting surface, the lateral movement of the mounting leg cannot be prevented.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and the mounting legs of the reel can be easily mounted. Even if a load is applied to the mounted reel, the lateral play is particularly large. Another object of the present invention is to provide a reel leg fixing device excellent in operability that can prevent movement.

[0007]

According to the present invention, a reel leg mounting surface on which a reel mounting leg is mounted is formed on a sheet body on which a fishing reel is mounted. A pair of hoods holding the mounting leg on the mounting surface are arranged facing each other along the longitudinal direction of the reel leg mounting surface,
A reel leg fixing device in which at least one of the pair of hoods is formed as a movable hood that can be disposed at a required position on the reel leg mounting surface, wherein the movable hood is disposed on the reel leg mounting surface. Has an elastic member that elastically urges the mounting leg when the mounting leg is tightened toward the other hood, and the elastic member elastically locks the mounting leg to perform the mounting. A reel leg fixing device having a wall that restricts lateral movement of a leg and enables longitudinal movement is provided.

Further, according to the present invention, a reel leg mounting surface for mounting the mounting leg of the reel is formed on the sheet body on which the fishing reel is mounted, and the mounting leg is held on this mounting surface. A pair of hoods are disposed facing each other along the longitudinal direction of the reel leg mounting surface, and at least one of the pair of hoods is formed as a movable hood that can be arranged at a required position on the reel leg mounting surface. A reel leg fixing device, comprising a plurality of elastic members located along both side edges of the reel leg mounting surface between the pair of hoods and protruding from the reel leg mounting surface, each elastic member, A reel leg fixing device is provided that elastically locks a mounting leg to form a wall that restricts lateral movement of the mounting leg and enables longitudinal movement.

The reel leg fixing device 10 of the present embodiment is provided on a rod tube (not shown) preferably made of fiber reinforced resin and located at a hand portion of a fishing rod. This reel leg fixing device 10 is shown in FIGS.
As shown in FIG. 1, a tubular sheet body 1 made of synthetic resin or the like
2 and a movable hood 16 movable along a pair of guide grooves 14 along the longitudinal direction of the seat body 12, and a rod pipe penetrates inside the seat body 12. Although the seat body 12 of this embodiment is formed separately from the rod tube and is fixed to the rod tube with an adhesive or the like, it may be formed integrally with the rod tube. Further, the sheet main body 12 is not limited to the cylindrical structure as illustrated, and may be formed in a plate shape. Symbol 12A is
4 shows a non-slip portion formed on the surface of the seat body 12.
In FIG. 3, the moving hood 16 is omitted for simplification.

The seat body 12 has a fixed hood 18 formed at the front end thereof for receiving and locking one end of the mounting leg 6 of the fishing reel. In this embodiment, the mounting leg 6 is formed of a leg extending in the vertical direction and a leg extending in the horizontal direction, and the leg is directly locked to the seat body 12. Since it is also possible to directly connect the fishing reel to this horizontally extending leg, the following description will be made simply as a mounting leg.

The fixed hood 18 has a space into which the mounting leg 6 is inserted, and an opening 20 for introducing the mounting leg into this space. A flat reel leg mounting surface 22 for mounting the mounting leg portion 6 is formed on the rear end side of the opening 20. Both side edges of the reel leg mounting surface 22 on the base end side are formed. A movable hood 16 is slidably mounted along a pair of guide grooves 14 extending to the portion. Symbol 24 is
The locking receiver has a series of lateral grooves arranged along the longitudinal direction of the reel leg mounting surface 22 to fix a locking claw 34 described later. The locking receiver 24 may be formed as a separate member from the seat body 12 as in the present embodiment, or may be formed integrally with the seat main body 12.

The reel leg mounting surface 22 of this embodiment maintains the fixed state of the reel mounting leg 6 when the reel mounting leg 6 is fixed through the movable hood 16 and the fixed hood 18, and is used for fishing rod operation. It is formed of a hard member that does not cause any trouble. As such a hard member, a natural material such as wood or stone can be used in addition to metal, synthetic resin or ceramics. When formed of a metal material, stainless steel, brass, aluminum, or the like can be used.

The movable hood 16 is provided on the reel leg mounting surface 2.
2 moves while covering the support surface portion 22A located on the base end side of FIG. As shown in FIG. 2, the movable hood 16 has a hood main body 26 formed of metal or a highly rigid synthetic resin or the like in which guide pieces that engage with the guide grooves 14 of the sheet main body 12 are formed on both sides. The hood main body 26 has a space into which the end of the mounting leg 6 is inserted similarly to the fixed hood 18, and an opening 28 for introducing the mounting leg into this space. Opening 2 of fixed hood 18
0. An inner wall member 30 made of a hard resin is disposed in the space of the hood main body 26 to prevent the mounting leg 6 from being damaged when pressed against the support surface 22A of the reel leg mounting surface 22. preferable. Such an inner wall member can be provided also in the space of the fixed hood 18.

As shown in FIG. 1, the movable hood 16 includes
A tightening lever 32 for restricting the movement and a locking claw 34 operated by the tightening lever 32 are provided. As shown in FIG. 2, the tightening lever 32 has a rear end portion attached to the hood main body 26 so as to be able to move up and down. The locking claw 34 is formed by a spring plate having a tip portion attached to the hood main body 26 and a claw portion (not shown) protruding from the rear end portion toward the reel leg mounting surface 22 side. Are urged in a direction away from the reel leg mounting surface 22.

A rear end portion of a tightening lever 32 rotatably attached to the hood body 26 is formed as a pressing piece 33. The pressing piece 33 is erected by the tightening lever 32 as shown in FIG. 1 is disposed substantially parallel to the reel leg mounting surface 22, and is disposed substantially perpendicular to the reel leg mounting surface 22 when it is tilted to overlap the hood main body 26 as shown in FIG. You. Therefore, when the tightening lever 32 is raised from the hood main body 26, the engagement between the locking claw 34 and the locking receiver 24 is released, and the movable hood 16 is free along the longitudinal direction of the reel leg mounting surface 22. Can move. On the other hand, when the tightening lever 32 is overlaid on the hood main body 26, the pressing piece 33 presses the claw projecting from the rear end of the locking claw 34 toward the reel leg mounting surface 22, and the locking is performed. The movable hood 16 is fixed to the reel leg mounting surface 22 by meshing with one corresponding lateral groove of the receiver 24.

The reel leg fixing device 10 of the present embodiment has a position between the fixing hood 18 and the support surface portion 22A, and
The fixed hood 18 has two elastic members 36 and 46 arranged at positions corresponding to the openings 20. Since the elastic members 36 and 46 can be formed in the same manner as each other, the elastic member 36 will be described unless otherwise specified.

The elastic member 36 of this embodiment is formed of a material that is more flexible than the reel leg mounting surface 22.
Is fixed by bonding or integrally molding in a state in which a part thereof is embedded in a concave portion 38 formed in the concave portion.
Each of these elastic members 36 is elastically locked with a mounting leg portion to restrict lateral movement of the mounting leg portion, as described later, by a convex ridge protruding from the top along both side edges. And a pair of wall portions 35 which can be moved in the longitudinal direction.

The elastic member 36 is provided on the reel leg mounting surface 22.
And, it is formed of a material that is more flexible than the inner wall member 30, and is accommodated in a state in which a part is embedded in the concave portion 38 that is concavely provided on the mounting surface 22. The elastic member 36 has a pressure receiving surface 37 formed between the pair of wall portions 35, 35 slightly protruding from the mounting surface 22. The height of the elastic member 36 protruding from the mounting surface 22 is equal to the length of the elastic member 36. When the respective dimensions of the width, depth and width are, for example, 5 to 30 mm, 15 to 20 mm and 1 to 5 mm, about 0.1 to 2.0 mm from the reel leg mounting surface 22
Is preferably 0.2 mm or more. The size of the protrusion is selected so that the elastic member can be deformed within the elastic limit when the pressure receiving surface 37 is compressed by the mounting leg 6 to be substantially flush with the reel leg mounting surface 22. . Such an elastic member 36 is preferably formed of rubber (synthetic and natural) or an elastomer resin, and a foamed material such as ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) or cork (artificial and natural) can also be used. Further, a material having shape memory characteristics may be used.

The pressure receiving surface 37 of the elastic member 36 may be formed on the entire top of the elastic member 36 except for the wall 35.
Alternatively, it may be formed only on a part thereof. In any case, the elastic deformation when pressed by the mounting leg 6 is caused by the concave portion 38.
It is preferable to be absorbed by. As described above, when the volume of the concave portion 38 is formed to be slightly larger than the portion of the elastic member 36 excluding the projecting portion, and the amount of deformation of the elastic member 36 when the projecting portion is pressed is absorbed, the elastic member 36 is used. 36 is always maintained within the elastic limit, thereby maintaining the initial elasticity over a long period of time and the reel leg fixing device 10.
Can have excellent durability. By providing such a space for absorbing the amount of deformation of the elastic member 36 on the bottom side of the elastic member 36, it is possible to prevent the elastic member 36 from moving in the longitudinal direction and the lateral direction with respect to the reel leg mounting surface 22. . The space for absorbing the deformation of the elastic member 36 may be formed in the seat body 12 or may be formed in the elastic member 36 itself.

Such an elastic member 36 is provided at only one of the reel leg mounting surface 22 instead of being provided at two sites, that is, at the front end side and the intermediate portion, as in this embodiment. It can also be provided at three or more sites. In any case, it is preferable that the elastic member 36 disposed on the base end side of the reel leg mounting surface 22 be disposed at a position separated from the support surface portion 22A to the distal end side. When it is arranged at a position shifted from the support surface portion 22A, the base end side of the mounting leg portion 6 pressed by the movable hood 16 can directly contact the support surface portion 22A. At this time, since the distal end side of the mounting leg portion 6 is supported by the fixed hood 18, each elastic member 36
Is pressed and compressed with increased force by leverage. Further, the fixed hood 1 is provided at the tip end side of the reel leg mounting surface 22.
8, when the pressure receiving surface 37 is pressed until it is substantially flush with the reel leg mounting surface 22,
The contact between the mounting leg 6 and the fixed hood 18 is ensured.
It is preferable that the size be such that movement or rattling can be prevented.

It is preferable to provide a non-slip on the pressure receiving surface 37 of the elastic member 36. Such a non-slip is performed by forming a large number of micro-sized irregularities, roughening the surface, or coating a non-slip coating. be able to. Of course, such a non-slip may be applied directly to the reel leg mounting surface 22. Further, one or more bosses or projections are projected from the lower surface of the elastic member 36, and such projections are fitted into holes formed in the sheet body 12 in a penetrating or non-penetrating state. The lateral movement of the 36 itself may be prevented. In this case, the recess 3
Even when the opening area of the elastic member 8 is larger than the elastic member 36, the lateral movement of the elastic member 36 is reliably prevented. The elastic member 36 adjacent to the support surface 22A is connected to the support surface 22A.
However, in such a case where the elastic member 36 is arranged at a position separated from the support surface portion 22A, the elastic member 36 can be compressed by using the Operation becomes easy.

FIG. 4 shows two examples of the shape of the elastic member 36 in cross section. The elastic member 36A shown in FIG. 4A has a central portion bulging outward and a side edge portion adjacent to the wall portion 35 is formed in a substantially planar shape. The curved shape of the bulging portion is smaller than the depth of the concave surface forming the bottom surface of the mounting leg 6 of the reel, and therefore, when the mounting leg 6 is placed on the pressure receiving surface 37 of the elastic member 36A, the mounting leg is Preferably, a gap is formed between the bottom surface of the portion 6 and the bulge. Also, the mounting leg 6
When pressing the elastic member 36A, the wall portion 35 is deformed toward the center, and the side edge of the mounting leg 6 is elastically held.
A hollow space may be formed below the elastic member 36A so that the wall 35 can be easily deformed in this manner.

The intermediate portion indicated by the symbol M can be removed. In this case, the elastic member 36A is formed of two members, and these two members can be arranged on both sides of the intermediate portion M which is a hollow space. Further, a hard member (not shown) can be disposed in the intermediate portion M. In this case, the height of the hard member is desirably formed so as not to protrude outward from the two members on both sides forming the elastic member 36A.

The elastic member 36B shown in FIG. 4B has a flat pressure receiving surface 37, and the wall portion 35 is formed to be thicker than the central portion. The thickness difference between the central portion and the side edge portion is preferably formed within a range of, for example, 5 mm or less in the case of the elastic member having the above-described dimensions. Also in this case, since the amount of deformation on the side edge is large, when the mounting leg 6 is pressed, the wall 35 is elastically deformed inward, that is, toward the center. In addition, the elastic member 36 </ b> B
For example, the interval between the five may be wider than the mounting leg 6 by about 1 to 5 mm. In this case, it is possible to largely deform the vicinity of the wall 35, and the bottom surface is formed in an arc-shaped cross section. The side edge of the mounting leg 6 having a planar shape is
6B, the lateral movement of the mounting leg 6 together with the wall 35 can be suppressed. The other points are the same as those of the above-described elastic member 36A.

As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, the concave portion 38 for fixing the elastic member 36 in a buried state has, for example, a cylindrical shape or a stepped shape having a circular cross-sectional bottom surface. It is formed with a curved surface, and both sides are formed deeper than the center. Thus, the side portion of the concave portion 38 can be formed deep while maintaining a thickness sufficient to maintain the strength of the sheet body 12 at a portion corresponding to the central portion of the concave portion 38. In this case, a large elastic force or a large amount of deformation can be secured for a long period of time without increasing the width dimension of the elastic member 36, and deterioration of the elastic member due to aging or the like can be prevented.

The elastic member 46 shown in FIG.
The elastic member 36A is formed of the same material as that of the elastic member 36A, and is formed particularly suitable for being disposed in the fixed hood 18. Wall 45 is fixed hood 1
By being supported by the side walls of 8, the wall portion 45 is prevented from being excessively deformed, and can maintain its shape for a long period of time, thereby forming an elastic member having excellent durability. Reference numeral 47 indicates a pressure receiving surface. Of course, this elastic member 46 can also be formed in the same structure as the above-described elastic member 36A or 36B, and can be formed as a hollow space or provided with an intermediate portion M where a hard member is arranged.

The wall portions 35 and 45 are formed of a ridge that is continuous in the longitudinal direction as in the present embodiment, or one protrusion having a short axial length or a plurality of protrusions arranged at predetermined intervals. It may be formed. When the elastic members 36 and 46 are formed to have the above-described dimensions, the height of the wall portions 35 and 45 protruding from the pressure receiving surfaces 37 and 47 is about 1 to 5 mm, and the width thereof is about 0.5. It is preferably formed to a thickness of about 2 mm. Also, when the elastic member is formed wide,
A recess for accommodating the mounting leg 6 may be formed, and the recess may be formed by a side surface defining the recess.

When the reel is fixed by using such a reel leg fixing device 10, the following operation is performed. First,
The tightening lever 32 is raised from the movable hood 16 (the state shown in FIG. 2), the engagement between the claw portion of the engagement claw 34 and the lateral groove of the engagement receiver 24 is released, and the movable hood 16 is separated from the fixed hood 18. Let it. Subsequently, the distal end of the mounting leg 6 is inserted through the opening 20 of the fixed hood 18 and pushed into the space of the fixed hood 18 until it comes into contact with, for example, an inner wall member of the fixed hood 18 (the state shown in FIG. 3). At this time, the mounting leg portion 6 has the side edge portion elastically locked by the wall portions 35 and 45 while the pressure receiving surface 3
You will be guided on 7,47. Thereafter, the movable hood 16 is moved to the fixed hood 18 while the tightening lever 32 is standing up, and the movable hood 16 is fixed to the fixed hood 18 while the base end of the mounting leg 6 is accommodated in the space from the opening 28. The mounting leg 6 is tightened toward the fixed hood 18 by further pressing the mounting hood 6.

Since the distal end of the mounting leg 6 is supported by the fixed hood 18, when the movable hood 16 is pressed against the fixed hood 18, the base end of the mounting leg 6 faces the reel leg mounting surface 22. It is pressed and acts. Each of the elastic members 36 and 46 is compressed by a large force received from the mounting leg 6, so that the base end of the mounting leg 6 is located on the reel leg mounting surface 22 located below the movable hood 16. It comes into contact with the support surface 22A. When the side edge of the mounting leg 6 bites into the pressure receiving surfaces 37, 47 adjacent to the walls 35, 45, the walls 35, 45 are displaced toward the mounting leg 6. In this state, the tightening lever 32 is depressed, the claw portion of the locking claw 34 is engaged with the lateral groove of the locking receiver 24, and the movable hood 16 is fixed (the state shown in FIG. 1).

According to the reel leg fixing device 10, the reel mounting leg 6 can be easily operated without any special operation.
When the mounting leg 6 is fixed, at least one end of the mounting leg 6 directly abuts on the hard reel leg mounting surface 22, and the elastic members 36, 4
6, the pressure receiving surfaces 37 and 47 urge the mounting leg 6 in a direction away from the reel leg mounting surface 22. Further, the walls 35, 45 of the elastic members 36, 46 elastically lock the side edges of the mounting leg 6, and restrict the lateral movement of the mounting leg 6.
In particular, when the side edges of the mounting leg 6 bite into the pressure receiving surfaces 37, 47, the walls 35, 45 fall down to the mounting leg 6 side, and are held more firmly.

Thus, at least one end of the mounting leg 6 is sandwiched between two surfaces made of a hard material, either the movable hood 16 or the fixed hood 18 and the reel leg mounting surface 22. Further, the mounting leg 6 is provided with the elastic member 3.
6 and 46 are urged through the pressure receiving surfaces 37 and 47, and both side edges are elastically locked by the walls 35 and 45. The force by which the walls 35 and 45 of the elastic members 36 and 46 elastically lock the mounting leg 6 is large enough to move the mounting leg 6 to the fixed hood 18 via the movable hood 16. Therefore, both ends of the mounting leg 6 are fixed by the pair of hoods 16 and 18 so as not to move in the longitudinal direction. For this reason, even if a load acts on the reel during use, the mounting leg 6 is reliably prevented from moving left and right, that is, from moving in the lateral direction, and from moving in the longitudinal direction.
The rattling in the lateral and longitudinal directions can be reliably prevented.

The wall may be formed of an elastic member having such a pressure receiving surface, or may be provided in the opening 28 of the movable hood 16 or the opening 20 of the fixed hood 18, for example, above or below the inner wall member 30. Well, these hoods 1
The same effect as described above can be obtained by providing the reel leg mounting surface 22 between the side surfaces 6 and 18 at the side edge. In these cases, the pressure receiving surface of the elastic member may be omitted.

FIG. 6 shows a wall formed on an elastic member having no pressure receiving surface. The elastic member 56 shown in FIG.
A front end portion attached to the sheet body 12 along the side edge of the reel leg mounting surface 22 and protruding from the reel leg mounting surface 22 forms a wall portion 55 for elastically locking the mounting leg portion of the reel. are doing. The elastic member 56 includes, for example, a screw, a pin,
Alternatively, it can be attached by press-fitting into a hole formed in the sheet body 12, and can be detachably attached.
Alternatively, they may be fixed using an adhesive or the like. When the moving hood 16 is arranged along the moving path, a groove or a concave portion may be formed in the seat body 12 and the elastic member 56 may be arranged therein to avoid interference with the moving hood 16. preferable. Each of the elastic members 56 can be arranged in a state of being opposed to each other with the reel leg mounting surface 22 therebetween or in a staggered state. Furthermore, when it is provided inside the movable hood 16, it cannot be seen from the outside, and the degree of freedom in design increases.

The elastic member 66 shown in FIG. 6B is disposed in a groove formed in the sheet main body 12 along the side edge of the reel leg mounting surface 22, and the elastic member 66 extends from the reel leg mounting surface 22. The protruding tip forms a wall 65 that elastically locks the mounting leg. The outer portions of the wall portions 65 are supported by edges protruding from the sheet main body 12 to a position slightly higher than the reel leg mounting surface 22. Therefore, the thickness of the wall portion 65 (see FIG. 6). (Dimensions in the left-right direction when it is pressed) can be reduced.

Since the elastic members 56 and 66 shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B do not have a pressure receiving surface, they can be lighter than the elastic members 36 and 46 shown in FIGS. It is.

FIGS. 7 to 9 show a reel leg fixing device 70 according to a second embodiment. Note that the embodiment described below is almost the same as the above-described first embodiment.
The same reference numerals are given to the same parts as those of the embodiment, and the detailed description is omitted. Reel leg fixing device 7 of this embodiment
Numeral 0 indicates that the moving hood 76 is formed in a nut type. The movable hood 76 has a hood body 78 slidably mounted along the axial direction of the seat body 72 and a nut member 80 connected to the hood body 78. The hood body 78 and the nut member 80 are rotatable and axially rotatable, for example, by fitting circumferentially extending ridges and grooves formed on the respective outer and inner peripheral surfaces facing each other. It is immovably connected.

The hood body 78 has a hollow structure slightly larger in diameter than the seat body 72, and has an opening 28 for receiving an end of the mounting leg 6 on the side facing the fixed hood 18. As in the first embodiment described above, an inner wall member 30 made of a hard resin is disposed in the space of the hood main body 78 from the opening 28. Further, a small protrusion (not shown) protrudes from the inner peripheral surface of the hood body 78, and
Is fitted in the axial guide groove 74 (FIG. 8) formed in the groove.
Thus, the hood body 78 can move only in the axial direction without rotating with respect to the seat body 72. On the other hand, the nut member 80 is formed with a female screw that is screwed with a male screw 82 formed on the seat body 72.
Therefore, by rotating the nut member 80 with respect to the seat body 72, the hood body 78
Move toward or away from it. Reference numerals 72A, 72B, and 80A denote slip stoppers formed on the seat body 72 and the nut member 80, respectively. Also in the present embodiment, the elastic members 36, 46, 56, 66 described in the first embodiment can be used.

The reel leg fixing device 70 of this embodiment can fix the mounting leg 6 of the mounting leg 4 very easily and securely by rotating the nut member 80 in a required direction. Since the nut member 80 can press the mounting leg 6 with an extremely large force, the elastic members 36, 4
The wall portions 35, 45 of the 6 can elastically lock the side edges of the mounting leg 6 with a large force. This allows
After mounting, the reel can be reliably prevented from inadvertently moving during use of the reel, and the walls 35, 45 can prevent the mounting leg 6 of the reel from moving in the lateral direction. When mounting the mounting leg 6, the wall 35,
When the wall 45 is elastically deformed inward, by preventing the wall from spreading outward, a reel leg fixing device that can be easily mounted and gripped easily can be formed. Further, FIG.
When the elastic members 56 and 66 are disposed between the hoods 16 and 18, it is easy to mount the mounting leg 6 on the reel leg mounting surface 22. Therefore, the mounting leg 6 can be moved sideways by a simple mounting operation. Movement can be reliably prevented.

In each of the above embodiments, only the hood on the base end side is formed as the movable hoods 16 and 76. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the hood on the distal end side may be formed as a movable hood. Obviously, both of the hoods may be formed as moving hoods. Further, the respective embodiments can be combined with each other. For example, FIG.
May be provided in the space of the fixed hood 18 or the movable hood 76.

Further, instead of engaging the side edge of the mounting leg 6 of the reel from the outside with the wall of the elastic member as in each of the above-described embodiments, for example, a groove (not shown) is formed on the bottom surface of the mounting leg. Alternatively, when a concave portion is formed, the wall portion of the elastic member is arranged in these grooves or concave portions, and the inner edges of the mounting legs that define these grooves or concave portions are elastically locked, The lateral movement of the mounting leg may be restricted. When arranging the wall portion in the groove or the concave portion of the mounting leg portion as described above, the two wall portions of the elastic member illustrated in FIG. 4 are respectively displaced inward, or are replaced with the two wall portions. By forming only one wall portion at the center portion and elastically engaging the side portions of such a wall portion, the lateral movement of the mounting leg portion can be restricted. In this case,
The pressure receiving surfaces may be arranged on both sides of the wall, or may be arranged on the top surface of the wall. When elastic members as illustrated in FIG. 6 are used, a pressure receiving surface can be formed on the top surface of these elastic members. By making the lateral dimension of the elastic member correspond to the groove or the recess of the mounting leg, the lateral movement of the mounting leg can be prevented with only one elastic member, and the side edge of the mounting leg can be prevented. Reel leg mounting surface 22
Can also be brought into direct contact.

FIGS. 10 and 11 show one elastic member 8.
6 shows a reel leg fixing device 90 that restricts the lateral movement of the mounting leg with only 6. Reel leg fixing device 90 of this embodiment
Is substantially the same as the reel leg fixing device 10 according to the first embodiment, but the sheet body 92 may be formed by, for example, injection molding, and the elastic member 96 is embedded in a recess 98 formed in the sheet body. Fixed.

The elastic member 96 is disposed on the rear end side of the mounting leg 6 at a position substantially at the center in the longitudinal direction. That is, the distal end portion 96a of the elastic member 96 is located at a position substantially corresponding to a substantially central portion of the mounting leg portion 6, that is, a leg portion (see FIGS. 3 and 8) extending from a foot portion directly in contact with the reel leg mounting surface 22. The rear end 96b is arranged at a position substantially corresponding to the front end of the movable hood 16 when the mounting leg 6 is tightened. Further, the elastic member 96 has a substantially triangular shape that is gradually narrowed from the wide front end side toward the rear end side, that is, toward the movable hood 16 side. In this embodiment,
The rear end portion of the elastic member 96 extends to a position between the pair of guide grooves 14, but may be disposed closer to the front end than the guide grooves 14.

The elastic member 96 is curved on both sides of the front end portion 96a, forms a maximum width at a portion located slightly behind the front end portion, and has a smooth side edge toward the narrow rear end portion 96b. Form a part. On the top of the elastic member 96, a plurality of longitudinally extending ridges 95 are formed.

As shown in FIG. 11A, in the present embodiment, these wall portions 95 are formed at predetermined intervals over the entire width of the elastic member 96, and the outermost wall portion 95a is
It is preferable to form the mounting leg 6 at a position where the inner edge of the bottom surface is elastically locked. In particular, when the bottom surface of the mounting leg portion 6 is formed in a concave shape, the wall portion 95a is urged in a direction away from the reel leg mounting surface 22 and the side via the bottom surface of the mounting leg portion, and the mounting is performed. Regulate lateral movement of the legs. Similarly, the plurality of wall portions 95 located between the wall portions 95a also restrict lateral movement of the mounting leg portion via the bottom surface of the mounting leg portion 6.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 11 (B) as an elastic member 96A, the outermost wall portion 95a is arranged outside the side edge of the mounting leg portion 6, and between these two wall portions 95a. The mounting leg 6 may be arranged. In this case, it is possible to omit the plurality of wall portions 95 between these wall portions 95a. In the modification shown in FIG. 11B, the wall portions 95a,
Reference numeral 95 denotes a concave and convex strip, and when urged by the mounting leg 6, the outermost wall 95a and the wall 9 adjacent thereto are formed.
5, the side edge of the mounting leg 6 is arranged. Thereby, the lateral movement is prevented via at least one of the outside and the inside of the mounting leg 6. The term “wall” in the present invention includes a structure that can prevent the reel leg from moving in the lateral direction when the elastic member is in a biased state.

In any case, the pressure receiving surface 97 is
4 is formed at a portion having a short longitudinal dimension outside or inside, but by forming the bottom surface of the concave portion 98 with a cylindrical curved surface as shown in FIG. 4, sufficient elasticity of the side portion of the elastic member 96 is obtained. It is possible to secure.

Further, since the elastic member 96 is disposed closer to the support surface 22A than substantially at the center of the mounting leg 6, the elastic member 96 elastically urges the mounting leg 6 near the movable hood 16. Even if only one elastic member 96 is used, the moving hood 1
Therefore, loosening of the mounting leg 6 can be effectively prevented. In particular, by being located in the vicinity of the moving hood 16, the movement of the reel leg on the moving hood side where movement easily occurs can be reliably prevented.

The above embodiments can be appropriately combined as required. For example, the elastic members 96 and 46 shown in FIG. 10 can be used as the elastic members 36 and 46 in the first and second embodiments. It is clear that the opposite is possible.

As is apparent from the above, according to the present invention,
Provided is a reel leg fixing device with excellent operability, which can easily mount the mounting leg of the reel and can prevent a lateral movement even when a load acts on the mounted reel.
