Abstract
Abstract A fishing reel which supports a spool shaft with a spool rotatably between a pair of frames, the spool shaft being driven through a drive mechanism, and provides a clutch operating mechanism to make the spool freely rotatable. A stopper gear is provided at at least one of the spool and spool shaft and a stopper engageable with said gear to impede reverse rotation of said spool is provided at the frame. A stopper operating member is provided to be operated to disengage the stopper from the stopper gear.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
230 words
A fishing reel comprising a pair of frames, a spool shaft having a spool supported rotatably between said frames, a drive mechanism having a handle and a drag mechanism for driving said spool shaft upon operation of said handle, a clutch mechanism which transmits a driving force from said drive mechanism to said spool shaft when engaged and for uncoupling the transmission of said driving force when disengaged, a clutch operating mechanism provided with a clutch operating plate for operating to engage and disengage said clutch mechanism, and an interlocking member which is movable together with said clutch operating plate, said reel having an anti-reverse-rotation mechanism provided with a stopper gear fixed to at least one of said spool and spool shaft and a stopper supported to said frame and engageable with said stopper gear to thereby impede reverse rotation of said spool, said anti-reverse-rotation mechanism being provided with a stopper operating member, adapted to engage with and be moved by said interlocking member, when said clutch operating plate moves in a direction of disengaging said clutch mechanism, to cause said stopper to disengage from said stopper gear when said clutch operating plate is operated to disengage said clutch mechanism, and means for moving said stopper operating member to cause said stopper to engage with said stopper gear, when said clutch operating plate is operated to engage said clutch mechanism.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
230 words
A fishing reel comprising a pair of frames, a spool shaft having a spool supported rotatably between said frames, a drive mechanism having a handle and a drag mechanism for driving said spool shaft upon operation of said handle, a clutch mechanism which transmits a driving force from said drive mechanism to said spool shaft when engaged and for uncoupling the transmission of said driving force when disengaged, a clutch operating mechanism provided with a clutch operating plate for operating to engage and disengage said clutch mechanism, and an interlocking member which is movable together with said clutch operating plate, said reel having an anti-reverse-rotation mechanism provided with a stopper gear fixed to at least one of said spool and spool shaft and a stopper supported to said frame and engageable with said stopper gear to thereby impede reverse rotation of said spool, said anti-reverse-rotation mechanism being provided with a stopper operating member, adapted to engage with and be moved by said interlocking member, when said clutch operating plate moves in a direction of disengaging said clutch mechanism, to cause said stopper to disengage from said stopper gear when said clutch operating plate is operated to disengage said clutch mechanism, and means for moving said stopper operating member to cause said stopper to engage with said stopper gear, when said clutch operating plate is operated to engage said clutch mechanism.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
70 words
A fishing reel according to claim 1, wherein said stopper operating member is integral with said stopper and said clutch operating mechanism has an operating member for moving said clutch operating plate, said interlocking member being connected with said operating member and engaging with and actuating said clutch operating plate, so that said stopper operating member by engaging with said interlocking member, thereby operates together with said clutch operating plate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
37 words
A fishing reel according to claim 1, wherein said stopper has a releasing segment and one of said frames has a stopper releasing member engageable with said releasing segment to disengage said stopper from said stopper gear.
