Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 5-88264 (paragraph number [0014] and FIG. 1) Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 8-1662 (page 2, column 3, line 5 to line 14 and FIG. 1)

As described above, in Patent Document 1, there is no clear description as to what cross-sectional shape the fiber material used as the string material exhibits.
On the other hand, Patent Document 2 only describes that the fibers are used in the form of twisted yarns, monofilaments, and bundles. However, it is assumed that a large-diameter flexible fiber and a small-diameter high-strength fiber are used in combination. From the description, it is considered that a string material having a circular cross section is used as shown in FIG. 4 of the publication.
Then, if there is such a circular cross section on the surface of the cover, the apex portion of the circular cross section locally abuts the palm of the angler who grips the grip, and there is a long grip Had a room for improvement because it felt pain in the palm and received a feeling of pressure.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a grip structure for a fishing rod that can reduce palm pain and pressure even when the grip is long.

〔Constitution〕
The characteristic configuration of the invention according to claim 1 is that the core material is attached and fixed to the outer peripheral surface of the heel material, and the covering member formed by braiding the cord material combining fibers is attached to the outer peripheral surface of the core material. Is formed in a flat cross-sectional shape having a wide width with respect to the thickness, and the flat surface having the wide width is wound in a state facing the surface, and a flexible paint is applied to the surface of the covering body. The surface of the flexible paint layer located on the surface of the string material is formed into a flat surface. The effects are as follows.

[Action]
As the cord material, a flat cross-sectional shape having a wide width with respect to the thickness is used, so that the flat surface comes into contact with the palm of the angler who holds the grip. Then, compared to the string material having a circular cross section, the area that abuts the palm of the angler's palm is widened, and it acts at a constant surface pressure, so the pain acting on the palm and the feeling of pressure can be alleviated. .

〔effect〕
It has become possible to provide a fishing rod grip structure that allows a fishing operation to be performed comfortably over a long period of time simply by making a simple change to the cross-sectional shape of the string material.
In addition, since the surface of the flexible paint is formed as a flat surface, the surface that comes into contact with the palm of the hand is evenly contacted, and the increase in the contact force locally can be suppressed and the paint is flexible. Therefore, it is possible to relieve the feeling of pressure on the palm due to the elastic force and increase the holding force.

The characteristic configuration of the invention according to claim 2 is that, in the invention according to claim 1, the covering body is a bag braided with the string material, and the function and effect thereof are as follows.
