Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial field of application] This invention relates to a telescopic light-emitting float for fishing.

[Conventional technology]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as telescopic floats whose buoyancy can be adjusted according to fishing spot conditions, weight of tackle, etc., those shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 have been popular. This retractable float consists of three cylinders, a lower cylinder 22, a middle cylinder 23, and an upper cylinder 24, which are connected via a slidable fitting joint that is watertightly covered with a rubber band 21. An air plug 25 for preventing decompression is provided at the tip of the upper cylindrical body 24. There is also one that consists of two cylinders, a lower cylinder and an upper cylinder.

This retractable float allows you to freely adjust the buoyancy by shortening each cylinder (see Figure 2) or lengthening it (see Figure 3). It is also possible to install heavy bait baskets.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, although this retractable float is very useful for sea fishing, it cannot be used for night fishing, and there has been a demand for a retractable light-emitting float.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, this invention has a battery removably built into the lower end of the lower cylinder, and a light emitter built into the upper end of the upper cylinder.
The battery and the light emitter are connected by a contractible elastic spiral wire inserted into the cylinder.

[Effect]

According to this invention, when the float body is expanded or contracted, the spiral electric wire can be freely expanded or restored;
There will be no tangles inside the cylinder when it is restored.

〔Example〕

FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view showing an embodiment of this invention in a partially expanded state. The flexible light-emitting float of this invention consists of a lower cylinder 2, a middle cylinder 3, and an upper cylinder 4 made of hard plastic that are connected through a slidable fitting joint that is watertightly covered with a rubber band 1. The lower cylindrical body 2 has a small round bar-shaped dry battery 5 such as a manganese dry battery removably built into its lower end, and the upper cylindrical body 4 has a light emitter 6 built into its upper end. and are connected by two spiral electric wires 7 having contraction elasticity and inserted into the cylinder.

A conical arrowhead 8 is removably screwed onto the lower cylinder 2 in a watertight manner so that the built-in dry cell battery 5 can be easily updated, and a small gold ring is attached to the tip of the arrowhead 8.

The upper cylindrical body 4 is a transparent body to transmit the light from the light emitter 6, and is provided with an air plug 10 at the upper end to prevent decompression during expansion.

The light emitting body 6 is protected by a transparent tube 11, and uses a light emitting element such as a red light emitting diode. The electric wire 7 is coated and insulated with a semi-rigid synthetic resin that has the required elasticity, and is held in a spiral shape by a heat cut to have contractile elasticity, so that it is stretchable and generates restoring contractile force when stretched. , when deflated, it can be beautifully restored to its original appearance.

In addition, the telescopic light-emitting float of this invention can be applied to various types of telescopic floats, such as a two-cylinder structure with a lower part and an upper part, in addition to the above-mentioned telescopic float consisting of three cylinders, a lower part, a middle part, and an upper part. .

〔effect〕

As described above, the telescopic light-emitting float according to this invention has a battery built into the lower end of the lower cylinder, a light emitter built into the upper end of the upper cylinder, and the battery and the light emitter inside the cylinder. The wire is connected by a spiral wire coated with a special synthetic resin with elasticity, which is inserted through the wire.The spiral wire can be freely expanded or restored, so it can be adjusted to suit the conditions of the fishing spot and the weight of the tackle. The buoyancy can be adjusted by freely expanding and contracting the float itself, making it useful for night fishing and promising big fishing results.
