Abstract: A baitcaster includes a spool, a guide member, and a line guide mechanism. The spool is configured to be driven to take up a fishing line. The guide member is configured to transition between a first state for let out of the fishing line and a second state for take up of the fishing line. The guide member configured to engage the fishing line at a contact point and guide the fishing line to the spool from the contact point when in the second state. The guide member is configured to be driven to rotate to reciprocatively translate the contact point along a length of the guide member. The line guide mechanism is configured to transition the guide member between the first state and the second state in response to a user input.

Abstract: A level wind mechanism for a dual-bearing reel including a first reel body and a second reel body includes a worm shaft, a guide member, and a first seal member. The worm shaft including a first end, a second end, a shaft body and a helical groove. The first end is on the same side as the first reel body. The second end is on the same side as the second reel body. The shaft body extends between the first end and the second end. The helical groove is on the shaft body. The guide member includes a tubular shape, is outside the worm shaft in a radial direction from a rotational axis of the worm shaft, and extends between the first reel body and the second reel body. The first seal member seals between the first end of the worm shaft and the guide member.

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 method and device for adjusting the unstored length of tubing directed to improving the use of infusion sets that deliver fluids to a user. The device includes a storage module and other features for adjusting, storing and securing the length of the tubing. The method of adjusting the length of the tubing to a desired length typically comprises removably attaching the tubing to the adjuster, adjusting the tubing by wrapping the tubing around a hub or post of the adjuster, and fixing the length of the unstored tubing by attaching the tubing to a securing device such as a friction structure or fastener.

Abstract: In a spinning reel, a traverse camshaft 21 is arranged to engage with an engaging member used to cause a bail arm and a spool to undergo a relative reciprocal movement. The traverse camshaft 21 has a shaft body 37 and a cam groove 38. The shaft body 37 is arranged to rotate in coordination with rotation of a handle assembly in at least a line reel-in direction. The cam groove 38 is formed in an external circumferential surface of the shaft body 37 and configured to engage with the engaging member. The cam groove 38 is also configured to intersect itself. The cam groove 38 has a first groove section 38b and a second groove section 38c on opposite sides of an intersecting portion 38a. The first groove section 38b and the second groove section 38c have different widths at the intersecting portion 38a.

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.

Abstract: A fishing reel includes: a reel body including left and right side plates; a spool for winding a fishing line, rotatably supported between the left and right side plates; a handle for rotating the spool; a fishing line guiding device. 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.
