Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An object of the present invention is to provide a fishing reel wherein a bearing rotatably supporting a drive shaft securely shuts out water from its interior so as to maintain stable sealing and thus smooth rotation for a long period wherein such a bearing can be readily built in. In accordance with one aspect, the fishing reel of the present invention includes a drive shaft to be rotationally driven for winding a fishing line around a spool. The drive shaft is rotationally supported by a magnetic fluid sealed bearing having an inner ring magnetic fluid retained between an inner ring and a polar plate retaining a magnet and/or between the inner ring and the magnet, and an outer ring magnetic fluid retained between an outer ring and the polar plate retaining the magnet and/or between the outer ring and the magnet.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A fishing reel comprising: a drive shaft to be rotationally driven for winding a fishing line around a spool; and a magnetic fluid sealed bearing configured to rotatably support the drive shaft, the magnetic fluid sealed having an inner ring magnetic fluid and an outer ring magnetic fluid; wherein the inner ring magnetic fluid is retained between an inner ring and a polar plate retaining a magnet and/or between the inner ring and the magnet; and wherein the outer ring magnetic fluid is retained between an outer ring and the polar plate and/or between the outer ring and the magnet.
