Abstract
A spinning reel includes a spool, a rotor, a bail arm, a moving member, detected part, and a detected part. The bail arm pivots between a first posture in which a fishing line can be wound onto the spool by rotation of the rotor, and a second posture in which the fishing line is released from the spool. The moving member is at a first position when the bail arm is in the first posture, is positioned at a second position when the bail arm is in the second posture, and returns the bail arm from the second posture of the bail arm to the first posture of the bail arm by shifting from the second position to the first position. The detected part is on the moving member, and the first detecting part is on the reel body and detects a position of the detected part.
Claims4
A spinning reel, comprising:
- a handle;
- a reel body to which the handle is attached;
- a spool on the reel body, the spool configured to have a fishing line wound therearound;
- a rotor configured to rotate relative to the reel body in accordance with rotation of the handle, and configured to wind the fishing line onto the spool, or configured to enable the fishing line to be released from the spool;
- a bail arm configured to pivot between a first posture in which the fishing line is capable of being wound onto the spool by rotation of the rotor, and a second posture in which the fishing line is configured to be released from the spool;
- a moving member positioned at a first position when the bail arm is in the first posture of the bail arm, is positioned at a second position when the bail arm is in the second posture of the bail arm, and configured to return the bail arm from the second posture of the bail arm to the first posture of the bail arm by shifting from the second position of the moving member to the first position of the moving member;
- a detected part provided on the moving member;
- and
- a first detecting part on the reel body and configured to detect a position of the detected part.

- a detected part provided on the moving member;
- and
- a second detecting part provided on the reel body and configured to detect a movement speed of the detected part corresponding to the rotation of the rotor.
