PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a groundbait basket allowing opening and closing of a lid body of a groundbait basket body simply by operation of a main fishing line, and consistently carrying out holding of to scattering of a groundbait in the sea.SOLUTION: The groundbait basket includes: the groundbait basket body 1 having an opening 12 in the upper end, and housing the groundbait in the interior thereof basket hanging holes 6 and 6-1 basket bearings 7 and 7-1 a sinker 11 and the lid body 2 installed for opening and closing the opening 12 on the inner peripheral surface of the upper part of the opening 12, and housed in the groundbait basket body 1. The lid body 2 is obtained by connecting a lid bearing 5 to the basket bearings 7 and 7-1 of the groundbait basket body 1 with a shaft member 8, and assembled in the groundbait basket body 1. The lid body 2 has a structure for allowing displacement of the gravity center to one side, maintenance and self-sustaining of a vertical posture, and free rotation along the inner peripheral surface. A basket line 9 is passed through a lid opening and closing supporting hole 4 of the lid body 2 and basket hanging holes 6 and 6-1 of the groundbait basket body 1 and engaged to carry out latching together with the main fishing line 10 in order to open and close the lid body.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】道糸の操作のみで、撒き餌籠本体の蓋体を開閉させ、また、海中での撒き餌の保持と撒布まで一貫して行う事を可能にした撒き餌籠を提供する。【解決手段】上端部に開口部12を有し、内部に撒き餌が収容される撒き餌籠本体1と、その開口部12の上部の内周面に、籠吊り孔6、6-1と、籠軸受7、7-1と、重錘11と、開口部12を開閉するための蓋体2と、を設けて、撒き餌籠本体1に収容する。その蓋体2は、蓋軸受5と撒き餌籠本体1の籠軸受7、7-1と、を軸部材8により連結し、撒き餌籠本体1に組込む。その蓋体2は、片側に重心を変位させて、垂直姿勢を維持自立し、内周面に沿って自在に回転できる構造にしている。蓋体を開閉するために、蓋体2の蓋開閉支持孔4と撒き餌籠本体1の籠吊り孔6、6-1と、を籠糸9で通し、係合して道糸10で係止する。【選択図】 図1
