PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sinker that can relieve the twist of a fishline, and reducing the occurrence of snagging.SOLUTION: The swivel member-storing type sinker for fishing is constituted as follows. A hollow hole 4 is formed in the sinker 1, and a passing hole 5 through which the fishline can be passed from the center axis of a head part 2 to the hollow hole 4 is also formed. A swivel member 6 is movably attached to the hollow hole 4 so that the swivel member 6 may face to the lower end of the passing hole 5. The height of the hollow hole 4 is regulated so that a line eye 6a of the swivel member 6 may not contact with the lower end of the passing hole 5. The fishline is passed through the passing hole 5, and connected to the line eye 6a. The snagging by the swivel member is not caused because the swivel member is formed into a stored type.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】釣り糸の撚りを解消でき、根掛かりが生じにくい錘を提供する。【解決手段】錘1に中抜き孔4が形成され、頭部2の中心軸から中抜き孔4までに釣り糸が挿通できる通し孔5が形成されている。中抜き孔4には、通し孔5の下端に向くように撚り戻し部材6が可動的に取り付けられている。中抜き孔4の高さは、撚り戻し部材6のラインアイ6aは、通し孔5の下端に接触しないような高さである。釣り糸を通し孔5を通して、ラインアイ6aに繋ぐ。撚り戻し部材が収納型となっているため、それらによる根掛かりが生じない。【選択図】図1
