PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To facilitate an operation such as yarn stopping to reliably hold a long body end part, and make a spool simply applicable for a general-purpose and excellent in durability.SOLUTION: A spool body (2) includes: a support wall (11) extending to a diameter direction inside on one end side of a cylindrical trunk part (7) and a trunk inner space (12) where the other end side is opened to an outer space. The support wall (11) includes a support part (15) extending to the trunk inner space (12) in the orthogonal direction. The support part (15) includes a swinging part (4) disposed in the orthogonal direction to a central axis (16) on the opposite end part of the support wall (11). The swinging part (4) includes a pinching part (20) pinching a long body along the peripheral edge part. The swinging part (4) is switched to a swinging posture in which the opposite peripheral edge part advances into the outside of the trunk inner space (12) across the support part (15) by adding a pressing force to the support wall (11) to part of the peripheral edge part, and is switched to a return posture (R) in which the peripheral edge part returns to the trunk inner space (12) by removing the pressing force.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】糸止め等の操作が容易で確実に長尺体端部を保持できるうえ、汎用のスプールにも容易に適用でき、しかも耐久性に優れるようにする。【解決手段】スプール本体(2)は、筒状の胴部(7)の一方の端部側に径方向内側へ延設された支持壁(11)と、他方の端部側が外部空間に開放された胴内空間(12)を備える。支持壁(11)は、直交方向へ胴内空間(12)に延びる支柱部(15)を備える。支柱部(15)は支持壁(11)とは反対側の端部に、中心軸(16)に対し直交方向に配置された揺動部(4)を備える。揺動部(4)は、長尺体を挟持する挟持部(20)を周縁部に沿って備えている。揺動部(4)は、周縁部の一部に支持壁(11)側への押圧力を加えると、支柱部(15)を挟んで反対側の周縁部が胴内空間(12)の外側へ進出する揺動姿勢に切り替わり、押圧力を除去すると周縁部が胴内空間(12)内へ戻る復帰姿勢(R)に切り替わる。【選択図】図2
