Abstract: A spinning reel includes a reel body, a handle, a spool shaft, a spool, a rotor, a reciprocating mechanism, and a clutch mechanism. The handle is rotatably disposed on the reel body. The spool shaft is supported by the reel body. The spool moves in an axial direction of the spool shaft together with the spool shaft. The rotor rotates about the spool by rotation of the handle and winds a fishing line around the spool. The reciprocating mechanism moves the spool shaft back and forth in the axial direction when the rotation of the handle is transmitted thereto. The clutch mechanism switches between a transmitting state to transmit the rotation of the handle to the reciprocating mechanism and a non-transmitting state to terminate the transmission. The reciprocating mechanism enables the spool shaft to move in the axial direction when the clutch mechanism is in the non-transmitting state.

Abstract: A handle system for use with a fishing rod. In one embodiment the system is attachable to a rod having a reel seat and operable in conjunction with a reel having a rotatable spool about which fishing line is wound. An attachment section attaches the reel to the handle system and attaches the handle system to the fishing rod. A handle section includes a handle about which a first hand can be placed to hold the rod while catching a fish. The handle extends in a direction away from the attachment section. A leveling system provides back and forth movement of fishing line along the reel spool when the reel is attached to the handle system and the fishing line is being wound on to the spool.

Abstract: A fishing reel with interchangeable line-guiding system includes a body, a fishing reel, and an automated winding component. A lateral cover is fixed to the body. The body has therein the fishing reel. The fishing reel has therein a spindle. A toothed axle is disposed on the outer wall of the spindle inside the lateral cover, flanked by two first intermediate gears, and adapted to mesh with a big gear meshing with the two first intermediate gears. The automated winding component has a second intermediate gear fixed to the body. The second intermediate gear meshes with a line-guiding shaft gear. The line-guiding shaft gear is fixed to the end of a line-guiding shaft. The line-guiding shaft is disposed inside a line-protecting axle. A slider movable laterally is disposed on the outward wall of the line-guiding shaft to enable upward and downward casting.

Abstract: A fishing reel that includes line guide (23) with fishing line guide hole (24) formed into a rectangular shape as viewed from the front of the guide body (22) extending in the right-and-left-direction along the axis of spool (5); and pillar (30) movable in a vertical direction in the vicinity in the anterior posterior direction of the line guide (23). The pillar (30) includes fishing line guide member (31) extending along the axis. The pillar (30) is configured to be movable between a first position where the fishing line is held in the center portion (24c?) and a second position retracted from the first position. The pillar (30) may take the first position by moving downwardly for fishing line winding operation to cause the fishing line guide member (31) to guide the fishing line to the center portion (24c?) of the fishing line guide hole (24).

Abstract: A fishing reel is provided having a pair of opposed sidewalls with a spool holding fishing line rotatably supported between the sidewalls. The spool is freely rotatable in a first direction to release fishing line from the bottom portion of the spool, and is mechanically rotatable in a second direction opposite to the first direction to retrieve the fishing line and to wind the line back onto the spool. A handle crank is provided for imparting rotation to the spool in the second direction by rotation of the crank in the same, second direction.

A fishing line guiding device includes: a slider body which is mounted between the left and right side plates on a front of the spool and is reciprocated left and right by a winding operation of the handle; a swinging body including one end portion rotatably supported by the body and the other end provided with a line guide for guiding the fishing line; and a coupling portion which couples the swinging body to the slider body so that the swinging body reciprocates the line guide arcuately left and right.

Abstract: A method for mounting coil onto stator for rotary electric machine. The method includes forming coil pieces by winding wire with flat cross section into single row lamination state including wire layers aligned along perpendicular line to flat surfaces of wire. The coil is formed for first portion to be inserted in slot and second portion not inserted in slot appear alternately along the coil. The method displaces wire layers at the first portion changing the single row lamination state to connectively laminated state where wire layers at portion to be inserted in slot each adjacent pair of the wire layers partially overlap with respect to direction perpendicular to flat wire surfaces. The method includes inserting wires of first portion into slot, passing each wire layer through slot opening successively from the top wire layer of lamination and displacing each wire layer at first portion from each other.

Abstract: A dense-winding capable oscillating mechanism that holds down manufacturing costs and ensures easy manufacturing precision. The spinning reel oscillating mechanism (6), for reciprocating the spool back and forth in cooperation with rotation of the handle attached to the reel unit—to which a fishing-line-guiding rotor is rotatively fitted—includes a pinion gear (12), a stepped gear unit (13) and a shifting mechanism (17). The pinion gear (12) rotates in cooperation with handle rotation. The stepped gear unit (13) includes a larger-diameter gear (19) meshing with the pinion gear (12) and a smaller-diameter gear (20) disposed concentric with the larger-diameter gear (19), for rotating unitarily with the larger-diameter gear (19). The shifting mechanism (17) has a driven gear (16) meshing with the smaller-diameter gear (20) and reciprocates the spool by rotation of the driven gear (16).

Abstract: A device for driving a spinning reel is to rotate a rotor shaft and a spool shaft in the opposite direction to each other while reciprocating the spool shaft back and forth. A first spiral gear of a rotor shaft and a second spiral gear for rotating a spool shaft in the opposite direction of rotation of the rotor shaft are respectively engaged to a drive gear in the opposite direction to each other to thereby rotate the rotor shaft and the spool shaft in the opposite direction to each other. The spool shaft has a cross-shaped spiral groove thereon and a guide pin for reciprocating the spool shaft back and forth is engaged with the spiral groove. Therefore when the drive gear is rotated, a rotor and a spool is rotated in the opposite direction to each other, and at the same time, the spool fixed to the spool shaft is reciprocated back and forth.

Abstract: A fishing reel with side walls includes a spool shaft rotatably supported therebetween and a level wind comprising a transverse shaft with an oblique segment intermediate the ends of the shaft rotatably secured between the side walls in front of the spool that engages the fishing line as it is being wound onto the spool.
