PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a rod tip protective cover that prevents generation of rubbing or a rattling noise between rods and vibration of a guide when a gap is generated around a rod tip and the guide stored in the rod tip protective cover.SOLUTION: The rod tip protective cover includes a U-shaped inner holding member having both side walls with thickness smaller than that of a bottom resiliently so as to hold both side surfaces of a guide frame stacked and connected with the rod tip inserted to the inside. The inner holding member in a holding state is stored in a cover body, and the movement between short rods are regulated.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】竿先保護カバー内に収納された竿先及びガイドの周囲に隙間が生じていた場合には、竿間においても擦れ合いやガタツキ音が生じ、ガイドが振れ動くこととなる。【解決手段】竿先保護カバーは、底部より厚みが薄い両側壁を有するU型のインナー保持部材が、内部に差し入れられた竿先と重ね連なるガイドフレームの両側面を挟持するように弾性的に保持し、この保持状態のインナー保持部材をカバー本体内に収納され、短尺な竿間の移動を規制する。【選択図】図1
