Abstract
A braking force control device according to one embodiment of the present disclosure is a braking force control device provided with a spool pivotally supported by a reel body, the spool on which a fishing line may be wound, a rotational speed detection unit that detects a rotational speed of the spool, a braking unit that generates a braking force to the spool, and a braking force control unit that controls the braking force of the braking unit, in which the braking force control unit adjusts the braking force according to elapsed time from when casting starts or detection information of the rotational speed detection unit.
Claims8
A braking force control device comprising:
- a spool pivotally supported by a reel body, the spool on which a fishing line may be wound;
- a rotational speed detection unit configured to detect a rotational speed of the spool;
- a braking unit is configured to generate a braking force to the spool;
- and
- a braking force control unit that controlsconfigured to control the braking force of the braking unit,
- wherein the braking force control unit adjusts is configured to adjust the braking force according to elapsed time from when casting starts or detection information of the rotational speed detection unit,
- wherein the braking force control unit is configured to:
- control the braking force on a basis of a brake set value defined for each time during first time of casting, and
- control the braking force on a basis of a brake set value defined on a basis of the rotational speed of the spool during second time of the casting,
- wherein the first time of casting corresponds to an acceleration region of the casts, and the second time of casting corresponds to a cruise region of the casting, and
- wherein the brake set value is defined by a relationship that a braking torque acting on the spool increases in proportion to the spool rotational speed and the brake set value.
