Abstract

[Problem] To provide a rod holder that can hold a rod vertically and in multiple positions in the front-to-back direction, can return to the vertical position from any angle without a pressing operation, and can be used for both belt attachment and attachment of portable items such as coolers. [Solution] The main body has rotating parts 1 and 2 and a rotation lock adjustment pin 7 with a compression spring 8, allowing the rod case 9 to rotate within a range of 136 degrees forward and backward from the vertical position, and to lock in 8 stages forward and backward, for a total of 16 stages. The gear has an asymmetrical shape, allowing it to return to the vertical position from any angle without release operation. Furthermore, eight recesses are provided on the head, and by engaging with a head adjustment part 10 having four protrusions, 16 stages of rotation holding are possible. In addition, the rod case is slidable in the horizontal direction and is equipped with a belt width adjustment mechanism and a gripping mechanism for the carrying item fixing member 15, allowing it to be used for both belt attachment and cooler attachment.

Description

This invention relates to a rod holder for carrying and holding a fishing rod, and more particularly to a rod holder equipped with a rotation locking mechanism, a head rotation stopper mechanism, an axial sliding mechanism, and a fixing mechanism that can be used for both belt attachment and cooler attachment. Conventional belt-mounted rod holders primarily utilize a structure that holds rods vertically, making it difficult to hold rods in a horizontal or forward-extending position. Furthermore, belt-mounted and cooler-mounted types have separate structures, and no dual-purpose holder existed. This invention was developed in consideration of these issues. This is an overall view showing a rod and reel attached to the rod holder according to the present invention.This is an exploded view of the rotation locking mechanism of the rod holder according to the present invention.This is a cross-sectional view of the rotation locking mechanism of the rod holder according to the present invention.This is a diagram of the head rotation stopper mechanism of the rod holder according to the present invention.This is a diagram showing the belt width adjustment mechanism for the rod holder according to the present invention.This is a diagram of the sliding mechanism of the rod holder according to the present invention.This diagram shows the rod holder according to the present invention attached to a cooler.This diagram shows the rod holder according to the present invention attached to a cooler. As shown in Figure 1, the rod case (9) according to the present invention is formed in a cylindrical shape and holds a rod and reel inside. A rotating mechanism is provided on the side of the rod case (9), and a belt fixing structure and a carrying item fixing structure are provided on the outside. As shown in Figure 2, the rotating part of the main body consists of a rod side (1) and a belt side (2), which are rotatably fastened together by a tightening bolt (13) and a tightening nut (14). As shown in Figure 3, a disc-shaped gear section with teeth on its outer circumference is formed on the rod side (1) of the main rotating section. A vertically movable rotation lock adjustment pin (7) and a compression spring (8) are provided inside the belt side (2) of the main rotating section. Pressing the rotation lock adjustment pin (7) releases the gear engagement, allowing the rod case (9) to rotate within a range of 136 degrees forward and backward relative to the vertical position. When the pressure is released, the compression spring (8) returns the rotation lock adjustment pin (7) upward, engaging with the disc-shaped gear section and locking it in approximately 8 stages forward and backward (for example, 6 to 10 stages), for a total of approximately 16 stages. The gear tooth profile is asymmetrical; in the direction of returning to the vertical position, it can overcome the rotation lock adjustment pin (7) by pushing it down via an inclined surface, while in the opposite direction, it locks using a nearly right-angle surface. As shown in Figure 4, approximately eight (for example, six to ten) recesses are formed circumferentially on the head of the rod case (9). Approximately four convex protrusions are formed on the inner circumference of the rod case head adjustment part (10). These engagements provide, for example, 16 rotation stop positions. The head is fixed by a head fixing screw (11), and by fitting into the recessed positions, rotation can be prevented even with light fastening. This configuration allows for the selection of the optimal locking angle depending on the type and shape of the reel being used. This provides the effect of securely holding the reel. For example, when using a spinning reel, the reel can be caught to prevent it from slipping off, and when using a baitcasting reel, the trigger portion can be hooked for use. As shown in Figure 5, the belt fixing upper part (3) and the belt adjustment movable part (4) are structured to clamp the belt (17). By tightening the belt width adjustment screw (6), the two members move closer together, allowing them to be fixed according to the belt width. It can be attached to either the right or left side of the body. When using with the belt attached, if transporting a rod, it can be transported in a locked state when used vertically, and it can also be laid down if there are obstacles overhead. When performing tasks requiring both hands during a fishing trip (for example, changing tackle, attaching bait, or untangling tackle), conventional rod holders attached to a vest require the rod to be held vertically, making them difficult to use. The rod holder according to this invention can be set nearly horizontally, allowing the rod to be positioned in front of the angler, providing a clear view of the rod tip (and thus, any bites). Furthermore, when bottom fishing, the rod is attached to the waist, minimizing rod movement. Even in the event of a sudden bite, the angler can proce
