Fastening device for quickly attaching a fishing line to a fishing rod

The present invention relates to a fastening device for quickly attaching a fishing line to a fishing rod. The invention is particularly applicable for fishing rods that work with rigidly attached cords that are attached to the tip of the fishing rod.

It is well known that in fishing, the fastening of the fishing line to the fishing rod in general is relatively complicated, both in the case when the fishing line is tied directly to the fishing rod will as well as when other precautions are taken, which are more or less random in nature and are taken by the angler himself and, despite their often laborious manufacture, only a relatively limited one Have reliability in terms of resistance and strength. The disadvantage of this known fastenings is used in particular for fish

Competitions revealed where the speed, ease and security of fastening the Fishing lines are extremely essential, and generally in cases where more than one Fishing rod is available and different fishing rods are used in each case.

The present invention is based on the task of securing fishing lines to the angler to facilitate and to create a fastening device that allows quick fastening of the fishing line enables. According to the invention this is achieved in that the fastening device consists of an elongated Element which is suitable to be attached to the tip of the tang and which has an eyelet, which has a side opening to insert a loop at the end of the fishing line, as well as an annular element which is displaceable on and on the elongate element can be locked when it coincides with the opening of the eyelet, thus making the loop of the fishing line is prevented from moving out of the eyelet.

The invention is explained in more detail using the exemplary embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. Show it:

Direction for attaching to another type of fishing rod.

^{¥ ie} from Fig. 1 shows, an apparatus according to the invention for rapidly attaching a fishing line to a fishing rod of an elongate member 1 and an annular element 2. The elongate member 1 has a circular cross-section in the illustrated embodiment, comprises at one of its Ends a buttonhole-shaped eyelet 3, which in turn has a side opening 4 through which one end of a fishing line, which is designed as a loop, is inserted.

The elongate element 1 has at its other end a circular cross-section bore 5, which extends into the interior of the element 1 and which is formed coaxially to the element. It extends this hole over the major part of the length of the element

The annular or tubular element 2 shown in FIG Example has a tubular shape, is designed in such a way that it can be pushed over the element 1 can and is slidable on this and is locked in the position shown in Fig. 2 on this,

whereby the opening 4 is closed. To lock the annular element 2 in this position, are Stops 6 are provided which protrude outwardly from the elongate element 1 and ge ^ en the annular Element rests in a locking manner. Furthermore, the end of the elongated element which has the eyelet 3 1 widened so that it also limits the sliding movement of the annular element 2.

The loop that has previously been formed on the fishing line is opened through the side opening 4 inserted and aligned in eyelet 3. The ring-shaped element is slipped on and on the elongated Element 1 moved until it reaches the position shown in Fig. 2, where it is as described above is locked.

The annular element 2 causes a slight force to act on the elongated element 1 when the Element 2 is pushed over the stops 6 and a reinforcement approach 7, which is at the beginning of the elongated element 1 is formed. At this, the opening of the bore 5 having the end of the elongated Element 1, a longitudinally extending slot 8 is provided, which serves to on the one hand the sliding of the element 2 and on the other hand a tight fit of the elongated element 1 on the Ensure the end of the fishing rod. The ring-shaped element is advantageously with on its .Außenkreis extending Ribs 9 provided or with other appropriate formations to better grip contact during the Moving the same on the elongated element

The device according to the invention can with corresponding Modifications can also be attached to the tang in another way. Such a modification of the The device according to the invention is shown in FIG.

In this embodiment, the elongate element 1 is in addition to the transverse slot 8 at the end with which it is attached to the tang, also provided with a transverse through hole 10 and further with a removable cap which is designed as a sleeve 11 and which has a cone 11a at one end, with which the sleeve is pressed onto the tip of the tang.

An elastic cord, not shown, is fastened inside the calf of the fishing rod and becomes its free end connected to the elongated element, the cord runs through the sleeve 11 and through the hole 10. In this way, the device according to the invention connected to the fishing line and can therefore depending on the load acting on the fishing rod 1 move out of or into the sleeve.

The elongate element 1 and the annular element 2 essentially constitute the device according to the invention To quickly attach a fishing line to a fishing rod, can be made of plastic, flexible wood material or similar suitable material.
