The present application claims the benefit of Chinese Patent Application No. 202210670448.9 filed on Jun. 14, 2022, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
The present disclosure relates to the field of fishing tackles, and in particularly to a reel line guide device, a baitcast reel and a fishing tackle.
A baitcast reel is one of the necessary fishing tackles for fishing with telescopic fishing rods. In an existing baitcast reel line guide system, line retrieving and pitching are carried out through the same guide hole of a guide. The line guide system has the largest disadvantage in that the functional requirements of a user in retrieving and pitching states of a reel assembly cannot be both taken into account. That is to say, during retrieving, it is required to minimize the guide hole in order to allow a fishing line to be wound uniformly, smoothly and attractively around the reel assembly; however, during pitching, it is required to maximize the guide hole in order to avoid a reduced bait casting distance and an undesirable water entry point due to a friction between the fishing line running at a high speed and an inner wall of the guide.
At present, a smaller guide hole of a guide in the market is preferred for the purpose of ensuring as much as possible that the fishing line is uniformly wound around the reel assembly during retrieving. However, this may sacrifices a lot of casting experiences. During bait casting, due to the smaller guide hole, the face that the friction between the fishing line running at a high speed and the inner wall of the guide leads to the limitations on a running speed and a running trajectory of the fishing line is inevitable, which eventually results in a reduced casting distance, an undesirable water entry point of a bait, and a low catch success rate.
The technical problem to be solved by the present disclosure is to provide a reel line guide device, a baitcast reel and a fishing tackle, which can improve the fishing experience of a user.
In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problem, an aspect of the present disclosure provides a reel line guide device, including:

The present disclosure will be further described below with respect to the accompanying drawings and embodiments in order to allow those of ordinary skill in the art to more clearly understand the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure.
Referring to
Based on the above design, the active passage space of the passage hole 121 of the guide 12 of the present disclosure varies in two different operating states, i.e., pitching and retrieving states, that is, the guide 12 may be driven by the button assembly 131 to rotate, so as to adjust the angle of the passage hole 121 of the guide 12 relative to the reel assembly 20 in such a way that the movement space for the fishing line 21 in the passage hole 121 may be reduced when the baitcast reel is in the retrieving state. In this embodiment, the passage hole 121 is offset in this case, a major axis of the passage hole 121 is substantially perpendicular to the reel assembly 20, and the active passage space of the passage hole 121 through which the fishing line 21 may pass is minimized, such that the fishing line 21 may be uniformly wound around the reel assembly 20 during retrieving. The movement space for the fishing line 21 in the passage hole 121 may be increased in the pitching state, the passage hole 121 faces the reel assembly 20 in this case, the active passage space of the passage hole 121 is maximized, providing enough space for the fishing line 21 to run at a high speed in the guide 12, and minimizing the friction between the fishing line 21 and the inner wall of the guide 12 so as to prevent the undesirable limitations on a running speed and a running trajectory of the fishing line 21.
In some embodiments, the transmission assembly 132 includes a clutch cam 1321 provided with first saw teeth 3211 on a side, and a transmission gear set. The transmission gear set includes a worm 3221 located on one side of the guide 12, a worm sleeve 3222 sleeved on the worm 3221, a connecting seat 3223 sleeved on the worm sleeve 3222 and movable along with the worm sleeve 3222, and a connecting gear 3224 fixed to the guide 12. Second saw teeth 2221 that mesh with the first saw teeth 3211 and third saw teeth 2231 that mesh with the connecting gear 3224 are respectively arranged on the worm sleeve 3222 and the connecting seat 3223. The button assembly 131 is connected to the clutch cam 1321 so as to force the clutch cam 1321 to rotate by means of the button assembly 131, thereby driving the connecting gear 3224 to rotate, such that the guide 12 rotates, along with the connecting gear 3224, to the left or right relative to the reel assembly 20 to adjust the angle of the passage hole 121 relative to the reel assembly 20. Based on this design, the first saw teeth 3211 on the clutch cam 1321 mesh with the second saw teeth 2221 on the worm sleeve 3222 and the third saw teeth 2231 on the connecting seat 3223 mesh with the connecting gear 3224. When the worm sleeve 3222 rotates, the connection base 3223 synchronously rotates by the same angle along with the worm sleeve 3222, and connecting gear 3224 rotates accordingly, such that the active passage space of the passage hole 121 is minimized when the baitcast reel is in the retrieving state, and the active passage space of the passage hole 121 is maximized when the baitcast reel is in the pitching state.
Preferably, in this embodiment, the transmission gear set further includes a first transmission gear 3225 and a second transmission gear 3226 arranged on the mount 11. The first transmission gear 3225 meshes with the first saw teeth 3211 and the second transmission gear 3226, and the second saw teeth 2221 on the worm sleeve 3222 mesh with the second transmission gear 3226. It can be seen that in this embodiment, the guide 12 is mounted on the mount 11 by means of the guide seat 14, and the transmission between the second saw teeth 2221 and the first saw teeth 3211 is also implemented by means of the first transmission gear 3225 and the second transmission gear 3226, which is more conductive to spatial layout of the components on the mount 11.
Further, the transmission gear set further includes a fixing fork 3227, one end of the fixing fork 3227 is in the form of a U-shaped opening, the worm sleeve 3222 is provided with a slot 2222, and the U-shaped opening penetrates the connecting seat 3223 and the slot 2222 and is engaged to the worm 3221, and the other end of the fixing fork 3227 is mounted in tight fit with the connecting seat 3223. Based on the above design, the connection between the connecting seat 3223 and the worm sleeve 3222 is further stabilized by means of the fixing fork 3227.
In some embodiments, the button assembly 131 includes an adjustment button 1311, a connecting rod 1312, and a ring 1313. A connecting post 112 is arranged on a surface of the mount 11, the clutch cam 1321 is fixed to the ring 1313, the ring 1313 is sleeved on the connecting post 112 and is connected to the adjusting button 1311 by means of the connecting rod 1312, such that the ring 1313 may rotate around the connecting post 112 upon pressing the adjusting button 1311. Based on the above design, the adjustment button 1311 synchronously drives the clutch cam 1321 by means of the connecting rod 1312.
An operating process of the reel line guide device 10 of the present disclosure will be described in detail below.
Upon pressing the adjustment button 1311, the adjustment button 1311 synchronously drives the clutch cam 1321 by means of the connecting rod 1312. Since the first saw teeth 3211 on the clutch cam 1321 mesh with the first transmission gear 3225, the first transmission gear 3225 meshes with the second transmission gear 3226, and the second transmission gear 3226 meshes with the second saw teeth 2221 on the worm sleeve 3222, a linkage relationship is established, that is, the worm sleeve 3222 automatically rotates by an angle upon pressing the adjustment button 1311; and since the worm sleeve 3222 is in a rotation linkage relationship with the connecting seat 3223, when the worm sleeve 3222 rotates by an angle, the connecting seat 3223 synchronously rotate by the same angle along with the worm sleeve 3222, and since the third saw teeth 2231 on the connecting seat 3223 mesh with the connecting gear 3224 fixedly connected to the guide 12, while the connecting seat 3223 rotates, the connecting gear 3224 and the guide 12 rotate instantly with the rotation of the connecting seat 3223 by virtue of the transmission of the third saw teeth 2231. In this way, a complete linkage mechanism is formed from the adjustment button 1311 to the guide 12, so as to achieve the purpose of adjusting the angle of the passage hole 121 of the guide 12 relative to the reel assembly 20. In the retrieving state of the baitcast reel, the movement space for the fishing line 21 in the passage hole 121 is reduced, as shown in
In summary, it can be seen that the active passage space of the passage hole 121 of the guide 12 of the reel line guide device 10 of the present disclosure is switched during pitching and retrieving as required, and instant switching of the active passage space of the passage hole 121 from small to large or from large to small is enabled, which not only ensures that the fishing line 21 is arranged uniformly, smoothly and attractively on the reel assembly 20 during retrieving, and more importantly, also provides enough space for the fishing line 21 to run at a high speed in the guide 12 during bait casting by means of the reel assembly, such that the undesirable limitations on the running speed and the running trajectory of the fishing line 21 due to the friction between the fishing line 21 and the inner wall of the guide 12 are avoided or reduced as much as possible, the satisfaction with the casting distance and the water entry point of the bait is greatly improved, the catch success rate is increased, and the experience and fishing fun of an angler are greatly enhanced.
