Spinning reel with acceleration-control mechanism to prevent reverse rotation

摘要

A spinning-type fishing reel whose rotor is formed with weights which, upon a predetermined combination of reverse angular velocity and acceleration of the rotatable line guide mounted on the rotor, jam against a nonrotatable part of the reel and thereby prevent further rotation. The locking of the rotary part is important, since it prevents entrainment of the rotary part in reverse rotation when the angler neglects to lock this part prior to the setting of a hook in the fish.
