PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce the size in the radial direction of a spool, in a sounding mechanism of a spinning reel.SOLUTION: The sounding mechanism 90 is a mechanism for sounding by the relative rotation of the spool 4 and a spool shaft 15 and is equipped with a first sounding part 91, a second sounding part 92 and an urging member 93. The first sounding part is installed in the spool shaft incapable of rotating, and has a plurality of unevenness parts 91a for sounding on the outer periphery. The second sounding part is equipped with a claw part 92a, installed in the tip end and an attaching part 93b which is formed at the base end, and which is attached to the spool so that the claw part can contact the uneven part and so as to be freely turnable about a turning shaft 98. When the spool rotates relative to the spool shaft, the claw part repeatedly makes contact with the unevenness part. The urging member 93 has a first engaging part 93b that is to be engaged with the second sounding part, and a second engaging part 93c to be engaged with the spool, installed in the opposite side of the first engaging part so as to sandwich the turning shaft, and urges the second sounding part, in the direction of the claw part making contact with the uneven part.COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT【課題】スプールの発音機構において、スプールの径方向寸法を小さくできるようにする。【解決手段】発音機構90は、スプール4と、スプール軸15との相対回転により発音する機構であって、第1発音部91と、第2発音部92と、付勢部材93とを備えている。第1発音部は、スプール軸に回転不能に装着され外周面に音出し用の複数の凹凸部91aを有する。第2発音部は、先端に設けられた爪部92aと、基端に設けられ爪部が凹凸部に接離可能にスプールに揺動軸98回りに揺動自在に装着される装着部93bと、を有し、スプールがスプール軸と相対回転すると、爪部が凹凸部に繰り返し当接する。付勢部材93は、第2発音部に係止される第1係止部93bと、第1係止部と揺動軸を挟んで逆側に設けられスプールに係止される第2係止部93cとを有し、第2発音部を爪部が凹凸部に接触する方向に付勢する。【選択図】図9
