Description

Trolling deepeners are designed for fishing, to bury baits to a certain depth while moving at a certain speed.

Description of analogues. In FIG. 1 shows the Double Deep Six deepener, which is structurally and functionally as close as possible to the design of mine. The depth of burial depends on the design of the deepener. The operating principle of many deepeners is based on the hydrodynamic effect of immersion by creating an angle of attack of the working surface of the deepener. To do this, the deepeners use certain suspension points for the fishing line from the spinning rod and the fishing line with bait. The working surface is a flat plate of various shapes.

Existing designs of hydrodynamic deepeners are equipped with a reset mechanism to eliminate the angle of attack of the working surface of the deepener when biting or pulling the deepener out of the water from great depths. Activation of the reset mechanism is necessary to lift the tackle from the depths or when biting with the least resistance and, accordingly, force on the rod.

The release mechanism, to eliminate the angle of attack, consists of a ball sandwiched between two plates with spherical recesses and wire rods. When a fish bites, or with a sharp jerk of the spinning rod, when you need to lift the tackle from the depths, the ball flies out of the recesses in the plates, and the deepener is released from the angle of attack.

When the angle of attack is reset, when the mechanism is activated, the water resistance and, accordingly, the force on the spinning rod when lifting the tackle decrease sharply.

The actuation force is adjusted by a screw that compresses the plates. The design of this deepener is bulky; the release mechanism to eliminate the angle of attack has a large number of parts and, accordingly, high water resistance.

Analogs of deepeners are made of plastic, and therefore are unsuitable for fishing for large fish, such as lakedra and tuna.

Disclosure of a technical problem

It is very important to be able to troll over a wide range of speeds. Different types of fish require different speeds, for example, from 4-6 km/h for salmon and perch, to 8-12 km/h for lakedra, and more than 10-12 km/h for tuna. To do this, you need a reset mechanism that allows you to smoothly adjust the release force over a wide range.

At high trolling speeds, a smaller angle of attack is required because At high angles of attack, the hydrodynamic resistance of water increases sharply. Therefore, it is also necessary to adjust the depth of penetration by changing the angle of attack of the working surface of the deepener.

The depth of the tackle is of great importance. At different times of the year, fish are caught in a wide range of depths, from the surface to the bottom. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the depth of burial by changing the weight of the lead weights.

To ensure that the gear does not get tangled when the boat turns while using two deepeners along the sides of the boat, they need to be moved further from the side.

Purpose and technical result

The goal is to create a deepener with a fundamentally new mechanism for resetting the angle of attack, easier to manufacture, and with the ability to adjust:

- actuation forces of the release mechanism to eliminate the angle of attack in a wide range of trolling speeds,

- angle of attack and, accordingly, depth of immersion

- depth of burial by changing the weight of lead weights

- according to the angle of removal of the tackle from the boat.

To deepen baits to a certain depth when moving at a certain speed, the trolling tackle burrower includes a metal plate with a mechanism for resetting the angle of attack, an adjusting bracket with holes installed in the rear part of the plate, an adjusting screw located at the bottom of the adjusting bracket through the plate, a front swivel bracket, on which replaceable lead weights are attached. On the back and front parts of the plate, there are holes for changing the suspension points of the leash with bait and the leash to the spinning rod, respectively. The angle of attack reset mechanism includes a torsional spring, one end of which is a suspension point, and the other is a point for adjusting the actuation force of the angle of attack reset mechanism.

In FIG. 2 side view, and Fig. 3 bottom view shows the design of the proposed deepener, which is a metal (made of titanium or stainless steel) plate, curved in the form of an S-shaped profile, like a wing (Fig. 2, 3, item 1), which reduces hydrodynamic resistance . The release mechanism, to eliminate the angle of attack when biting or pulling gear from the depths, consists of only one part - a spring (Fig. 2, item 2) working on torsion, made of steel, while one end of the spring is a suspension point, the other is point for adjusting the actuation force, which greatly simplified the design. All parts are located at the bottom of the working plate, which also reduces hydrodynamic drag.

The force of the spring is adjusted by simply bending the ends of the spring. The spring is made of OVS (especially high resistance) spring wire with chrome plating to protect against corrosion and to increase wear resistance. The connection between the deepening rod and the spinning rod is made through a coil of the spring.

To ensure the operation of the deepener at high speeds, the spring force will not be enough due to a sharp increase in water resistance (when the movement speed doubles, the resistance increases 4 times!)

To solve this problem, in the rear part of the deepener there is an adjusting bracket (Fig. 2, 3, item 3), with an adjusting screw (Fig. 2, 3, item 4), which allows:

- adjust the trigger force of the release mechanism to eliminate the angle of attack when pulling the tackle from the depths, and accordingly select any speed for trolling,

- change the angle of attack of the deepener and, accordingly, the depth of immersion of the tackle by changing the suspension point of the leash with bait (Fig. 2, pos. 7) on the rear bracket (Fig. 2, 3, pos. 3).

In the front part of the plate there are replaceable lead weights weighing from 40 to 160 g (Fig. 2, 3, item 5), on a rotating bracket (Fig. 2, 3, item 6). The rotating bracket serves as a rudder to move the deepener away from the boat to the side. This is important so that the gear does not get tangled when turning.

In addition, to remove the deepener to the side, there are additional holes (Fig. 3, pos. 8, 9) on the working surface in the rear and front parts, for changing the suspension points of the leash with bait (Fig. 2, 3, pos. 7) and the leash to the spinning rod, this will cause the plate to tilt along the course, due to which the deepener will move further away from the boat. By adjusting the angle of the rotary bracket (Fig. 2, 3, item 6), and the suspension points on the working plate (Fig. 3, item 8, 9), it is possible to use 4 or more deepeners simultaneously - several on each side, due to retraction angle adjustment.
