Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a fishing line colored and colored in a specific pattern so that the length of the line fed from a reel can be immediately determined.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In throwing fishing, a fishing line having a length of about 100 to 200 meters is generally used. However, if the length of the line drawn out from a reel after long throw is known, the flying distance and position of the hook can be known. It is convenient. For this reason, conventionally, fishing lines have been color-coded at regular intervals and colored, or some kind of mark has been added.

[0003] Further, if the fishing line is colored and colored, it is easy to take a shelf when the fishing line is used in a deep place, and there is an advantage that the movement of the fishing line can be visually sensed even when a fish is obtained. . For example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 4-40456 discloses that a fishing line is dyed every predetermined length for shelving purposes.

[0004] As an actual product, for example,
There have been fishing lines that are color-coded at relatively long intervals, such as a 150-meter fishing line composed of three colors of red, yellow, and white (natural) every 50 meters, but recently it has become finer, for example, every 10 meters. Fishing lines are also available on the market, in which the colors are repeated in the order of five colors of green, red, blue, orange, and dark blue, and the white line is displayed every 5 meters. As a matter of course, the finer the color, the more accurate the flying distance and the like can be known, and the shelving can be finely adjusted.

[0005]

However, as described above, in a fishing line in which color coding is sequentially repeated into about five colors,
It is necessary for the angler to memorize the coloring pattern (color order) in advance, which is troublesome. Also, since the same color appears repeatedly several times, it is necessary to count and remember the number of times the color in the angler's view corresponds to the eye. Therefore, even if the angler looks at the color of the fishing line,
It was difficult to immediately know the length of the yarn unwound from the reel.

Therefore, the present inventors, by coloring the fishing line in a specific pattern, allow the length of the line drawn out from the reel to be immediately known only by looking at the portion of the fishing line that is in the field of view. Was decided to be considered.

[0007]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION As a result of the study, a fishing line composed entirely of one basic color has been developed, and the identification color having a predetermined length is incremented by one for each predetermined unit length of the fishing line. It is a color-coded fishing line attached at intervals as shown below.

Further, the fishing line is composed of two basic colors alternately color-coded at predetermined intervals, and the identification color having a predetermined length is incremented by one for each predetermined unit length of the fishing line. It is a color-coded fishing line attached with.

Further, a portion alternately color-coded at predetermined intervals by two basic colors and a portion alternately color-coded at predetermined intervals by two basic colors composed of different combinations for each predetermined unit length. It is a fishing line that is arranged alternately, and is a color-coded fishing line in which identification colors of a predetermined length are spaced from each other so as to be increased by one each time the basic color changes.

Further, in each of the above-described color-coded fishing lines, a reference line is provided for each half of a predetermined unit length.

As described above, the color is colored so that the number of identification colors increases by one at the beginning, one identification color, then two identification colors, and then three identification colors. Therefore, if the number of discriminating colors in a portion of the line of sight of the fishing line is viewed, it can be immediately determined what unit length the portion corresponds to from the tip of the fishing line.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram of an example in which a fishing line having a total length of 100 m consisting of one basic color is color-coded using one identification color. In this example, the entire fishing line 1 is white, which is the basic color 2, and red is used as the identification color 3. Identification color 3 is 40cm
Colored to length, one for 0-10m, 10-20m
Are colored so that the number increases by 1 for every 10 m which is the unit length, such as 2 for 2 and 3 for 20 to 30 m. In addition, when a plurality of identification colors 3 are assigned, the interval between the identification colors 3, that is, the part of the basic color 2 remaining as white is set to 60 cm, and the next identification color 3 starts from the end of one identification color 3. 1m corresponding to 1/10 of the unit length up to the end of 3
It is color-coded so that

It should be noted that any color may be selected as the basic color 2 and the identification color 3, and the length for coloring the identification color 3 and the unit length for attaching the identification color 3 can also be arbitrarily selected. For example,
Assuming that the unit length is 10 m, the identification color 3 may be colored to a length of 30 cm at intervals of 70 cm, or may be colored to a length of 50 cm at intervals of 50 cm, or the unit length may be shortened to 5 m, It is optional to make it as long as 20 m.

In the color-coded fishing line according to the present invention, monofilaments, multifilaments, braided yarns, knitted yarns, twisted yarns or the like made of synthetic fibers such as nylon, fluorocarbon, polyester, polyethylene, etc. which are generally used as fishing lines at present. Any fishing line, such as a composite line, can be used. The coloring of the basic color may be performed by, for example, original deposition, a dip dyeing method, a printing method, and the like, and the coloring of the identification color may be performed by, for example, a printing method.

In the example shown in FIG. 1, the identification color 3 is given from the leading end of the unit length of the fishing line 1, but the identification color 3 is given from the trailing end of the unit length. Is also good. FIG. 2 shows an example in which the identification color 3 is added from the rear end of the unit length. In this example, the basic color 2 is green,
Red is used as the identification color 3, and the identification color 3 is attached from the rear end portion with a unit length of 10 m. The identification color 3 is colored at a length of 20 cm at intervals of 30 cm. As described above, if the length of the identification color 3 is reduced and the distance between the identification colors 3 is reduced, the invention can be applied to a long fishing line having a total length of 200 m or more.

FIG. 3 shows an example in which the whole is alternately color-coded at predetermined intervals using two basic colors, and is further provided at intervals such that the identification color of the predetermined length is incremented by one for each predetermined unit length. It is explanatory drawing which shows an example of the color-coded fishing line. In this example,
The entire fishing line 1 is alternately color-coded with a length of 60 cm and 40 cm using two basic colors 2a and 2b of blue and white, and red is used as the identification color 3. The length of this identification color 3 is 40 cm, and 0
1 for 10m, 2 for 10-20m, 3 for 20-30m, 3
It is colored so that the number increases by 1 every 10 m which is the unit length, such as 4 at 0 to 40 m. Since the length of the identification color 3 matches the length of one of the basic colors, white 2b, the white portion 2b of the basic color is consequently one for every 10 m in unit length.
The red color of the identification color 3 is replaced one by one.

As in this example, when the entire fishing line 1 is alternately color-coded at predetermined intervals by using two basic colors 2a and 2b, the fishing line is compared with the case where a single basic color is used. 1
Has the advantage that even slight movements can be visually grasped. In addition, when the considerable length is extended from the reel at hand, for example, 70 m or 80 m, it is slightly difficult to visually recognize the number of the identification colors 3. There is also an advantage that the number of remaining basic colors 2b can be easily recognized.

In this example, any color may be selected as the basic color or the identification color, and the length interval for coloring the identification color and the unit length for attaching the identification color may be arbitrarily selected.
Further, the coloring start position of the identification color may be changed to the rear end portion of the unit length.

FIG. 4 shows a portion which is alternately color-coded at predetermined intervals by two basic colors and a portion which is alternately color-coded at predetermined intervals by two basic colors of different combinations. It is an explanatory view showing an example of a color-coded fishing line in which identification colors of a predetermined length are arranged at intervals so as to be incremented by one each time the combination of the basic colors is changed. In this example, first, two basic colors 2a and 2
color is alternately colored at a length of 60 cm and 40 cm respectively using b, and then 60c each using two basic colors 2c and 2b of green and white.
The colors are alternately color-coded with a length of m and 40 cm, and are alternately arranged every 10 m of unit length to form a fishing line 1 having a total length of 100 m. Red is used as the discriminating color 3 and colored with a length of 40 cm. One color is used for 0 to 10 m with blue 2a as a basic color, and the next green 2c is used as a basic color.
2 for 10-20m, then 20 for blue 2a again
It is colored so that the number increases by 1 for every 10 m, which is the unit length, such as three for ~ 30 m. Also in this example, the selection of the color tone or the length of the basic colors 2a, 2b, 2c and the identification color 3 is arbitrary as in the previous example.

FIG. 5 shows the color-coded fishing line in the example of FIG. 1 for every half of a predetermined unit length of 10 m, that is, 5 m.
It is explanatory drawing of the example which attached | subjected the black and thick reference line every time. If the reference line 4 is provided in this manner, the number of identification colors can be visually recognized in the vicinity of the reference line 4 by relying on the reference line 4, so that the number of identification colors is relatively large, for example, around 60 to 80 m. Counting mistakes can be prevented even in parts that are difficult to count due to a large number.

FIG. 6 is an explanatory view of a color-coded fishing line in the example of FIG. 3 in which a black thick reference line is provided every half of a predetermined unit length of 10 m, that is, every 5 m. In the color-coded fishing line in the example of FIG.
It is explanatory drawing of the example which attached the black thick reference line every half of 10m used as a predetermined unit length, ie, every 5m. In these examples, the reference line 4 is attached to the basic color 2b in black with a width of about 20 cm in white. As a result of attaching the reference line 4 as described above, when the number of the identification colors 3 is small, the number of the identification colors 3 is relied on. In any case, by relying on the remaining basic color 2 and looking at a part of the fishing line in the field of view, it can be immediately determined how long that part is from the tip of the fishing line.

[0022]

According to the color-coded fishing line according to the present invention, it is only necessary to look at a part of the fishing line that is in the angle of view of the angler without having to memorize the color-coded pattern, and that part can be viewed from the tip of the fishing line. It is possible to immediately know the length of the fishing line or the length of the fishing line being unwound from the reel at hand. Therefore, the flight distance and the current position of the hook can be accurately grasped.

Further, when the fishing line according to the present invention is alternately color-coded at predetermined intervals by two basic colors, it is possible to take shelves more accurately than before. In addition, since a slight movement of the fishing line can be visually grasped, it is possible to detect the attack of the fish with high sensitivity.
