Abstract
Provided is a drag release system of a reel, that system adjusting drag by rotation of a spool on the reel, more particularly, a drag release system that immediately adjusts drag of a spool to prevent cutting of a fishing line by immediately decreasing the drag of the spool when strong tension is applied to the spool during fishing, by forming a fitting hole perpendicular to the axis of a cylindrical driving shaft and forming slits at a sleeve fitted on the driving shaft to have a predetermined length in the longitudinal direction of the driving shaft and to correspond to the fitting hole so that a fixing pin fitted in the fitting hole through the slits prevents the sleeve from idling on the driving shaft and guides the sleeve when the drag is adjusted.
Claims4
A drag release system for adjusting drag by rotation of a spool on a reel, the system comprising:
- a handle including a driving shaft rotating the spool, grips coupled to an outer end of the driving shaft, and a drag adjustment assembly including a plurality of washers disposed on an inner end of the driving shaft;
- an adjuster being movable axially on the driving shaft;
- and
- a sleeve fitted on the driving shaft between the drag adjustment assembly and the adjuster and adjusting the drag by rotation of the spool by tightening or loosening the drag adjustment assembly axially on the driving shaft when the adjuster is moved,
- wherein the driving shaft is formed in a cylindrical shape having a circular outer side and has a fitting hole formed therethrough perpendicular to an axis thereof,
- the sleeve has slits formed at the inner end thereof perpendicular to an axis thereof to have a predetermined length in an axial direction of the driving shaft and correspond to the fitting hole, and
- the sleeve is coupled to and rotated together with the driving shaft by a fixing pin fitted in the fitting hole through the slits.
