Abstract

Abstract A tool set for replacing the fishing line wound around the spool of a fishing reel consisting of a reel-de-lining tool comprising a shank driven by a power drill and supporting a spool concentric with and constrained to rotate with the shank, the spool having a frusto-conical winding surface and a removable end wall for retrieving old fishing line from a fishing reel and a re-loading tool comprising a support shaft accepting the spool of the fishing reel for power winding a fishing line thereon.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 119 words
A line winding tool for removing a line wound on a fishing reel spool comprising a take-up spool, a pair of end flanges each at one end of said spool, a drive shank concentric with said take-up spool mounted to the first of said flanges, said drive shank being adapted for removable mounting in the chuck of a power drill, wherein said take-up spool is frusto-conical in shape and has its end of larger diameter disposed proximate the first of said flanges and the second of said flanges is removably attached to said spool at its end of smaller diameter, and wherein said shank, the first of said flanges and said spool are formed integrally as a single component.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 119 words
A line winding tool for removing a line wound on a fishing reel spool comprising a take-up spool, a pair of end flanges each at one end of said spool, a drive shank concentric with said take-up spool mounted to the first of said flanges, said drive shank being adapted for removable mounting in the chuck of a power drill, wherein said take-up spool is frusto-conical in shape and has its end of larger diameter disposed proximate the first of said flanges and the second of said flanges is removably attached to said spool at its end of smaller diameter, and wherein said shank, the first of said flanges and said spool are formed integrally as a single component.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 49 words
The line winding tool of claim 1 wherein the second of said flanges is secured to said spool by means of a threaded bore in the center of said second of said flanges threading on the end of a threaded stud projecting from the corresponding end of said spool.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 101 words
A line winding tool for removing a line wound on a fishing reel spool, said tool comprising a drive shank, a flange attached to said shank, a threaded shaft concentric with said shank and projecting from said flange, a take-up spool having a longitudinal bore accepting said shaft, said take-up spool being removably mounted on said shaft, an end flange threading on the end of said shaft and holding said take-up spool in position on said shaft, and mating recess and projection in one of said flanges and in said take-up spool constraining said take-up spool to rotate with said shank.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 101 words
A line winding tool for removing a line wound on a fishing reel spool, said tool comprising a drive shank, a flange attached to said shank, a threaded shaft concentric with said shank and projecting from said flange, a take-up spool having a longitudinal bore accepting said shaft, said take-up spool being removably mounted on said shaft, an end flange threading on the end of said shaft and holding said take-up spool in position on said shaft, and mating recess and projection in one of said flanges and in said take-up spool constraining said take-up spool to rotate with said shank.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 15 words
The line winding tool of claim 3 wherein said take-up spool is frusto-conical in shape.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 17 words
