  • Dual-bearing reel
    Patent number: 9615560
    Abstract: A second one-way clutch for a dual-bearing reel includes a ratchet wheel, a pawl member, and a pawl pivot controller. The ratchet wheel includes a plurality of ratchet teeth disposed in the circumferential direction at intervals of the ratchet wheel. The ratchet wheel is rotatable in conjunction with the drive shaft. The pawl member is pivotally disposed on the pivot shaft between an engagement position in which the pawl member engages the ratchet teeth and an un-engagement position in which the pawl member is un-engagement from the ratchet teeth. The pawl pivot controller is rotatably disposed on the pivot shaft, has an interlocking gear that rotates in response to the rotation of the drive shaft, and pivots the pawl member to the engagement position and the un-engagement position in response to the rotational direction of the interlocking gear.
