  • Publication number: 20090282724
    Abstract: To solve tangle problems that a fishing line before passing a line guide ring is tightened around a fishing line guide just after casting and that the fishing line passing through the line guide ring of the fishing line guide goes around a rear side of the line guide ring due to “line slack” or the like so as to be tightened around the fishing line guide, the guide is designed such that a line guide ring (3) is inclined to a tip side, and an angle of junction between the line guide ring (3) and side support legs (9, 11) is made smaller at a butt side than at a tip side, and a hook concave portion on which a fishing line is caught so as to be turned back is not formed between the line guide ring (3) and the side support legs (9, 11).

  • Patent number: 7159355
    Abstract: The invention provides a fishing pole mounting structure that can secure properly firm mounting of a fishing reel. A movable hood part is structured by gradually expanding a predetermined location, in a circumferential direction of a cylindrical body outwardly towards one end in the longitudinal direction from the other end in the longitudinal direction to form a cover hood. The inner surface of the cover hood is formed in a shape corresponding to the end surface, the top surface and side surfaces on the outer end of a reel leg part of a fishing reel, and seats that support the reel leg part of the fishing reel are formed at both sides in the width direction of this inner surface, respectively.

  • Publication number: 20060283073
    Abstract: A line guide frame that includes a plate surface of a side support leg curved in a convex shape outwardly so as to make an arc is provided that allows a shock from a horizontal direction to be and suppress deformation from such a shock In the line guide frame, an edge does not face the outside, so even when the fishing line is tangled in the side support leg and contacts the plate-shaped frame, it does not contact the edge thereby preventing stress on the line.

  • Patent number: 6848209
    Abstract: A reel foot placing seat formed on a top portion of a circumferential surface of a body and a trigger protruding in a direction which is inclined in a backward-downward direction at approximately 30°, are provided on the circumferential surface of the body. A length of the portion crossing over a connection portion that connects a lower portion of the body to a front surface of this trigger is such that a user can place two fingers can be placed thereon. The user's two fingers placed thereon are aligned in a direction in which the angle is opened with respect to a direction perpendicular to a center axis X—X of a fishing body. Therefore, without a user significantly bending a wrist, a fishing rod can be firmly gripped. Furthermore, palming becomes possible in a position in which the body and the trigger are held by a user placing four fingers in front of the trigger in addition to placing the thumb on a reel.

  • Patent number: 6378240
    Abstract: For line guides having a frame that includes two rear support legs on its sides, if the inclination of for the rear supporting legs is reduced by lengthening the rear support legs, then the material costs and weight of the frame are increased. Thus, the invention provides a line guide, wherein the length of a rear support leg of a frame for intermediate guides is made longer than the length of a front support leg and a front mounting foot. The front support leg and the front mounting foot are cut and bent out from an area surrounded by the rear support legs. The height of the front support leg is limited to approximately one-fourth (¼) of the outer diameter of a ring holding part. Therefore, due to the low height, it is hard for the line to get tangled, and the accuracy of casting increases. The line is easily released simply by lengthening the rear support leg to reduce the inclination of the rear support legs.

  • Patent number: 6219954
    Abstract: To provide a line guide ring which can be simply formed and which has a pull-out prevention structure which does not disturb a winding configuration of a winding thread. Micro-irregularities are formed on a top surface of an attachment leg portion of a line guide ring, the attachment leg portion is fastened to a fishing pole by using a nylon winding thread with a diameter of 0.1 mm-0.9 mm. A sufficient amount of a liquid reaction hardening resin adhesive is pasted on a surface of the wound winding thread, and the adhesive permeates into concave portions of the irregularities of the attachment leg portion.

  • Patent number: 6105301
    Abstract: The object of the invention is to solve the problem associated with a fishing rod reel seat in which a nut type movable hood scrapes a surface of a body at a position opposite to a mounting foot of the reel when the nut type movable hood causes the mounting foot of the reel to be pressed, a reel seat is provided with a body 33 having a reel foot seat surface 51, a cylindrical movable hood 37 threadedly fitted around the body 33 and a body protector 43 disposed within the movable hood 37. When the movable hood 37 is advanced under the condition that a mounting foot 73 of the reel 71 is seated on the reel foot seat surface 51, one end portion of the mounting foot 73 is inserted into the movable hood 37, and the one end portion is brought into pressing contact with the reel foot seat surface 51. Before that, the body protector 43 is brought into contact with the body 33 on the opposite side to the real foot seat surface 51.

  • Patent number: 6067743
    Abstract: In order to facilitate the removal of the line entanglement, a frame is slanted and a guide ring member is formed into an oblong shape, however, if the guide ring member is oblong, a size of a guide ring member is increased, inversely, if a thickness of the guide ring member is decreased as a whole, a radius of curvature at side end portions of an inner circumferential surface of the guide ring member is decreased, the sliding resistance is increased depending upon an angle of the fishing line. Accordingly, a thickness t on the right and left of both side portions 4b extending in a straight line of the oblong guide ring member 4 is smaller than a thickness T of other portions 4a, the contact angle of the fishing line 10 to these portions 4b is kept almost unchanged, thus, there is no adverse affect against the sliding resistance even if these portions 4b are thinned.
