Abstract
A dual-bearing reel spool brake device configured to brake a spool being rotatably mounted to a reel unit by centrifugal force is provided. The dual-bearing reel spool break device includes a rotary member, a brake shoe, and a brake drum. The rotary member is configured to be rotated in conjunction with at least rotation of the spool in a fishing-line releasing direction. The brake shoe is elastically engaged with the rotary member, wherein the brake shoe is pivotable and detachable with the rotary member. The brake drum is disposed radially inwards or radially outwards of the brake shoe, wherein the brake drum has a peripheral surface contactable with the brake shoe.

A dual-bearing reel spool brake device configured to brake a spool being rotatably mounted to a reel unit by centrifugal force, the dual-bearing reel spool brake device comprising:
- a rotary member being configured to be rotated in conjunction with at least rotation of the spool in a fishing-line releasing direction;
- a brake shoe being elastically engaged with the rotary member, the brake shoe being pivotable and detachable with the rotary member;
- and
- a brake drum being disposed radially inwards or radially outwards of the brake shoe, the brake drum having a peripheral surface contactable with the brake shoe,
- the rotary member having a pivot shaft coupled to the brake shoe, and
- the brake shoe being elastically and pivotally engaged with the pivot shaft.
A dual-bearing reel spool brake device configured to brake a spool being rotatably mounted to a reel unit by centrifugal force, the dual-bearing reel spool brake device comprising:
- a rotary member being configured to be rotated in conjunction with at least rotation of the spool in a fishing-line releasing direction;
- a brake shoe being elastically engaged with the rotary member, the brake shoe being pivotable and detachable with the rotary member, the brake shoe having a first end and a second end being disposed on an opposite side of the first end, and the brake shoe being pivotably coupled to the rotary member at a position between the first end and a center of gravity;
- and
- a brake drum disposed radially inwards or radially outwards of the brake shoe, the brake drum having a peripheral surface contactable with the brake shoe,
- being disposed radially inwards of the brake shoe, and
- the peripheral surface being an outer peripheral surface contactable with the first end of the brake shoe.
