Abstract
A gear mounting structure for a fishing reel includes a screw shaft, a gear component and a ring member. The screw shaft has a shaft body, a spiral groove and a mounting part provided at an end of the shaft body. The spiral groove has a crossing point on an exterior circumference of the shaft body. The gear component has a gear body, a plurality of gear teeth and a mounting concavity. The gear teeth are formed in a circumferential direction along an exterior circumference of the gear body. The mounting concavity is for non-rotatably mounting the mounting part. The ring member has an elastic body interposed between the mounting part and the mounting concavity.
Claims17
A gear mounting structure for a reciprocating movement mechanism for a fishing reel comprising:
- a screw shaft having a shaft body, a spiral groove and a mounting part provided at an end of the shaft body, the spiral groove having a crossing point on an exterior circumference of the shaft body;
- a gear component having a gear body, a plurality of gear teeth formed in a circumferential direction along an exterior circumference of the gear body, and a mounting concavity for non-rotatably mounting the mounting part;
- and
- a ring member having an elastic body interposed between the mounting part and the mounting concavity.
A dual bearing reel comprising:
- a reel main body having a housing space;
- a spool rotatably disposed in the housing space;
- a handle disposed on a side of the reel main body to rotate the spool;
- a reciprocating movement mechanism disposed in the housing space, the reciprocating mechanism including a level winding mechanism for evenly winding fishing line onto the spool;
- and
- a gear mounting structure configured for the reciprocating movement mechanism, the gear mounting structure including
- a screw shaft having a shaft body, a spiral groove and a mounting part provided at an end of the shaft body, the spiral groove having a crossing point on an exterior circumference of the shaft body,
- a gear component having a gear body, a plurality of gear teeth formed in a circumferential direction along an exterior circumference of the gear body, and a mounting concavity for non-rotatably mounting the mounting part, and
- a ring member having an elastic body interposed between the mounting part and the mounting concavity.
A spinning reel comprising:
- a handle;
- a reel main body rotatably supporting the handle and having a housing space;
- a rotor rotatably supported on a front of the reel main body;
- a spool disposed at a front of the rotor so as to be movable;
- a reciprocating movement mechanism disposed in the housing space, the reciprocating mechanism including an oscillating mechanism for uniformly winding fishing line onto the spool by moving the spool;
- and
- a gear mounting structure configured for the reciprocating movement mechanism, the gear mounting structure including
- a screw shaft having a shaft body, a spiral groove and a mounting part provided at an end of the shaft body, the spiral groove having a crossing point on an exterior circumference of the shaft body,
- a gear component having a gear body, a plurality of gear teeth formed in a circumferential direction along an exterior circumference of the gear body, and a mounting concavity for non-rotatably mounting the mounting part, and
- a ring member having an elastic body interposed between the mounting part and the mounting concavity.
