  • Patent number: 11950583
    Abstract: Provided is a fishing reel having a magnet disposed in a circumferential direction crossing the axial direction of a spool and, more particularly, a fishing reel that can increase a braking force control range even without an increase in size and can maximize a casting distance by preventing backlash and preventing reduction of a casting distance due to a braking force by using a magnet brake. The fishing reel includes a spool having a drum on which a fishing line is wound, and a magnet brake including a holder disposed on a side of the spool and a magnet mounted on the holder in a circumferential direction crossing an axial direction of the spool to have inner and outer facing surfaces and generating a braking force to the spool.

  • Patent number: 11877569
    Abstract: Provided is a fishing reel spool that has a line knot hider. The spool for a fishing reel includes a knot hider for hiding a knot of a fishing line inside the surface of a winding part such that a line is uniformly wound on the winding section without a knot exposed outside the surface of the winding section, thereby not interfering with thumbing in casting and enabling even a beginner to easily connect and use a fishing line without connecting a fishing line to a spool using a complicated knotting manner. The spool for a fishing ring includes a drum-shaped winding part mounted on a reel body by a shaft and configured to wind a fishing line on an outer surface thereof, and a knot hider configured to hide a knot of the fishing line inside a surface of the winding part.

  • Patent number: 11684054
    Abstract: Provided are a spool braking device and a fishing reel equipped with the spool braking device. In the spool braking device, a magnet holder with a magnet moves toward an axial direction of a spool using eddy current and thus controls a rotational speed of the spool through a varying magnetic force acting on a braking plate of the spool. The spool braking device is capable of preventing a decrease in a distance a lure travels during casting when the spool is rotated at a low speed and preventing a backlash phenomenon through a braking operation suitable for high-speed rotation of the spool.

  • Publication number: 20230101437
    Abstract: Provided is a fishing reel equipped with a lock lever having a function to cover a protrusion of a frame. Specifically, by forming a protrusion at a lower portion of a front end of the frame, in particular, by forming a protrusion on which a worm shaft of level wind is installed, the appearance of the frame is maintained sharply to improve grip. In addition, the fishing reel enables convenient use of the lock lever while enhancing design aesthetics by covering the protrusion with the lock lever for detachably attaching a side cover. The fishing reel includes a frame having a spool mount and a palm sidewall, a palm-side cover detachably attached to the palm sidewall, and a lock lever interposed between the palm sidewall and the palm side cover and configured to lock or unlock the palm side cover.
