SPINNING REEL HOUSING WITH AN IMPROVED ACCESS OPENING AND REMOVABLE CAP

摘要

A closed face spinning reel has a housing with an opening affording access to the reel mechanism. The opening is closed by a removable cap. The cap is seated on a radial flange in the opening and has legs on its inner surface which engage cap locking surfaces on the inner face of the flange. Means are further provided to warp the cap to exert an inward force upon the flange to hold said cap within the opening.
