Drag mechanism in spinning reel for fishing

A drag mechanism in a spinning reel for fishing, comprising:

• a reel casing having engagement holes formed at its rear end portion;
• an actuator member having a lower end portion pivoted on a lower portion of said reel casing and having an upper end portino pulled backward by a spring;
• a yoke pivoted across said actuator member;
• a spool shaft having a drag mechanism means provided at its top end portion;
• a cylindrical shaft fitted in a rear end of said spool shaft so as to be slidable only in the axial direciton and rotatably locked in said yoke, said cylindrical shaft having engagement portions axially engageably/disengageably fitted in said engagement holes;
• and
• an operation lever pivoted on a rear portion of said reel casing, said operation lever having an acutating portion engaged with the rear side of an upper portion of said actuator member, said operation lever being provided with a spring for distribution-urging said lever in the directions opposite to each other.

A drag mechanism in a spinning reel for fishing, comprising:

• a drive gear;
• a reel casing;
• a handle shaft provided on said reel casing;
• a return member provided with kick portions, fittingly mounted on said handle shaft, and urged by a spring so as to be rotatable by a predetermined angle with respect to said handle shaft;
• an operation lever pivoted on said reel casing and in engagement with a spring, said operation lever having a return portion projectingly provided thereon;
• and
• a return actuator member pivoted on said reel casing at a portion between said return member and said return portion so as to come into a rotational locus of said return member in response to actuation of said operation lever, said return actuator member being urged by a spring away from an axis of rotation of said return member.
