Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a folding balance for fishing and, more particularly, to a folding balance for fishing which is convenient for storage and suitable for carrying.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a balance in which an arm for a line thread and an arm for a harris swing up and down freely, a standing balance described in JP-A-58-36328 and a patent document described in JP-A-7-23680 are disclosed. There is a fishing tenbin.

[0003] The former standing balance has a ring provided at a connecting portion between an arm for a warp thread and an arm for a harris, and these rings are swingably connected.

[0004] On the other hand, in the latter fishing tenbin, the harness arm is pivotally connected to the road thread arm so as to swing freely, so that the harris arm slowly rotates downward by the action of water pressure, and the feed is reduced. It is like swimming naturally.

[0005]

However, all of the conventional swinging folding balances for swinging are intended to swing in water after long throwing. Is not taken into account. In the conventional swinging balance, the arm for Harris is always provided so as to freely swing with respect to the arm for Doji. Therefore, the arm for Harris and the arm for Doji are used during long throw. Because they fly in a state where they overlap, there is an inconvenience that the device thread becomes entangled.

In other words, when the folding balance for fishing is cast far away, the mechanism connected to the arm for Harris must be maintained at a substantially right angle to connect the arm for the line and the arm for Harris. The probability of entanglement increases. However, in the conventional swinging balance, since the arm for harris and the arm for doji always swing, the arm for harris and the arm for doji approach during a long throw. In such a case, the thread is easily entangled.

In addition, the present inventor has discovered that the harness arm is more likely to rotate as the arm is closer to the thread than the weight during long throw. Therefore, what is important at the time of long throw is that the arm for the thread and the arm for the harris must be fixed at a substantially right angle as much as possible.

However, any swinging fishing balance in the related art has a configuration in which this angle cannot be maintained at a substantially right angle during long casting, and there is a high probability that the fishing balance is rotated and the device is entangled. Met.

On the other hand, if the arm for the thread and the arm for the harris are fixed at right angles in this way, the fixed fishing balance will be bulky at the time of storage, which is extremely inconvenient for storage and carrying. There was an inconvenience. That is, in the balance in which the arm for the line and the arm for the harris are fixed at a substantially right angle, when the fishing tackle is stored, the balance hinders the storage of other tools. Moreover, when carrying a device using this balance, it is necessary to pay attention to the arm for Harris projecting from the arm for road thread.

Therefore, the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problem, and keeps the arm for the thread and the arm for harris at a predetermined angle at the time of long throw and use, and at the time of storage. It is an object of the present invention to provide a folding balance for fishing that can be folded and stored in a compact manner.

[0011]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, a first means of the present invention is to provide a warp thread arm 1 connected to a warp thread.
And a harness arm 2 for supporting the harris at the tip end thereof are swingably connected via a connecting body 3 so that the harris arm 2 is fixed to the road thread arm 1 at a long throw. In the folding balance for fishing provided with the angle holder 4 for fixing to an angle, the angle holder 4 comprises a fixed tube 4A slidably fitted to the base end of the arm 2 for harris, and the arm 2 for harris. A fitting portion 4B is provided at a position to be fixed to the connecting body 3 and fitted with the fixed tube 4A.

The fitting portion 4B of the second means has a position for fixing the arm 2 for harris to the connecting body 3 at the time of long throw, and the arm 1 for warp folds the arm 2 for harris during storage. It is provided in the position.

The fitting means 4B of the third means is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape which is fitted to the outer periphery of the fixed pipe 4A as means for solving the problem.

According to the present invention, the arm 1 for harness and the arm 2 for harris are maintained and fixed at a predetermined angle by the angle holder 4 at the time of long casting, and the arm 2 for harris is held at the time of storage. The arm 1 is folded.

The angle holder 4 selects the angle of the Harris arm 2 by engaging and disengaging the fixed tube 4A and the fitting portion 4B.

The illustrated connecting body 3 is provided with an insertion hole 3A for inserting the arm 1 for the weft thread, and the arm 3 for the weft thread is slidably engaged with the connecting body 3. Although the lower end of the illustrated yarn body 1 is omitted, this lower end may be fixed to the connecting body 3 and also connects a bent portion for retaining and a return. is there. In addition, a connecting rod 3B is provided for swingably connecting the base end of the arm 2 for Harris, and the arm 2 for Harris is connected to the connecting rod 3B. And Harris arm 2
A notch-shaped slit 3 </ b> C is provided on the side surface of the connecting body 3 in the range where the rocking motion occurs. At this time, the connecting rod 3B is provided on the side of the connecting body 3, but the base end of the arm 2 for Harris is substantially T-shaped.
The U-shaped connecting rod may be formed to extend from the Harris arm 2 (not shown).

The connecting member 3 shown in the figure has a spherical shape with an elliptical side surface, and the weight 5 is provided integrally (see FIG. 2).
The weight 5 may not be provided, and the shape of the connecting body 3 is not limited to the illustrated example. The connecting body 3 may have any configuration as long as the arm 1 for the warp and the arm 2 for the harris can be connected in a swingable manner. Further, the presence or absence of the weight 5 can be arbitrarily set.

Then, the swing position of the arm 2 for harris is fixed to a predetermined position by the angle holder 4. The angle holder 4 includes a fixed tube 4A slidably fitted to the base end of the arm body 2 for Harris, and a fitting portion 4 fitted with the fixed tube 4A.
B. The fitting portion 4B is provided at a position for fixing the Harris arm 2 to the connecting body 3. This fixed position is
Two positions are provided: a position where the arm 2 for harris is fixed at the time of long casting, and a position where the arm 2 for harness is folded when folded. In the illustrated example, the angle holder 4 is provided at both ends of the slit 3C provided in the connecting body 3.

The fitting portion 4B is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape which is fitted around the outer periphery of the fixed tube 4A in order to increase the connection strength (see FIG. 1). At this time, the slit 3C is also extended to the substantially cylindrical fitting portion 4B, and the fixed tube 4A is forcibly fitted to the substantially cylindrical fitting portion 4B. For this reason, nylon is suitable as the material of the fixed tube 4A, but it is also possible to substitute another material or use a metal coil spring-shaped fixed tube 4A.
