Abstract
A motorized spinning reel driving device is provided for fastening in a spinning reel of a fishing rod for taking up a fishing line without change the original structure of such a spinning reel and fishing rod. The device comprises a housing having received therein a battery case, a motor connected to the battery in the battery case, a reducing gear set mounted on the output end of the motor. A driving shaft is secured to the output end of the reducing gear and protrudes beyond the housing, which driving shaft has a hexagonal conical projection on its rear end so that it can be fastened in the hexagonal hole of a spinning reel of different size.
Claims2
A motorized spinning reel driving device comprising:
- a housing having a hollow, rectangular body portion incorporated with an unitary cylindrical body portion at one side;
- a battery case received in said rectangular body portion and having set therein a plurality of dry cells connected in series by means of conductive strips wherein said rectangular body portion of said housing defines a space for holding the battery case which can be inserted and removed through an opening at one side and a retaining hole on the top adjacent to said opening, and said battery case has a vertical hook member releasably fastened in said retaining hole in said rectangular body portion, so that said battery case can be retained in said space inside said rectangular body portion by its vertical hook member in said retaining hole;
- a motor received in said cylindrical body portion and connected to said dry cells through a conductor, said motor having a power output end;
- a reducing gear set coupled with the power output end of said motor and received in said cylindrical body portion;
- a driving shaft coupled with said reducing gear set and protruding beyond said cylindrical body portion of the housing, said driving shaft having a hexagonal conical portion on its rear end and a cylindrical terminal end portion longitudinally extending forward from the front end of said hexagonal conical portion and defining a bolt hole on the front end of said cylindrical terminal end;
- wherein said hexagonal conical portion of said driving shaft is adapted to be inserted in a side hexagonal hole of a spinning reel and secured thereto by means of a screw bolt so as to drive said spinning reel to take up a fishing line by means of the operation of said motor.
