    Abstract: A dual-screw line guide is disclosed. A first screw has a first helical groove. A second screw has a second helical groove. The first helical groove and the second helical groove align, thereby forming a groove space, as the first screw and the second screw rotate in opposing radial directions. The groove space is configured for a line to pass therethrough.

  • Patent number: 10640346
    Abstract: A level wind mechanism includes a first screw and a second screw extending through a block. A shoe is disposed within the block between the first screw and the second screw. The shoe includes a first follower for engaging with and being driven by a thread of the first screw and a second follower for engaging with and being driven by a thread of the second screw. Each thread includes cams at the terminal ends of the thread for causing the shoe to disengage from that thread and to shift to engaging the other thread. In this way, the first screw and the second screw cause the shoe, and thus the block, to translate relative to the first screw and the second screw.
