Abstract
A double bearing type reel for fishing, the rotational resistance of the spool of which can be decreased in the case of unwinding the fishing line, while the mechanical strength of the clutch is ensured. The outer diameter of the bearing to support the spool shaft on the clutch mechanism side is made smaller than the overall length of the clutch engaging pin, and there is provided a pin insertion groove, into which the clutch engaging pin can be inserted, in the bearing holding section of the frame to hold the bearing.
Claims4
A double bearing type reel for fishing comprising:
- a frame of a reel body;
- a rolling bearing for rotatably supporting a spool shaft having a spool, said rolling bearing being mounted on the frame through a bearing holding section thereof;
- a clutch engaging pin attached to a portion of the spool shaft protruding from the rolling bearing, the clutch engaging pin radially protruding from the portion of the spool shaft, and
- a pin type clutch mechanism for changing over the spool between a fishing line winding state and a fishing line unwinding state such that the clutch engaging pin is engaged with or disengaged from a pinion meshed with a drive gear driven by a handle, wherein
- an outer diameter of the rolling bearing is smaller than the overall radial length of the clutch engaging pin, and
- a pin insertion groove into which the clutch engaging pin can be inserted is provided in the bearing holding section of the frame.
