Abstract

PURPOSE:To make member strength from a photodetection terminal to a tip and the intensity of a light beam uniform by providing absence part to a tip member made of an optical fiber for guiding light from a light emitting diode, and increasing the number of absence parts toward the tip. CONSTITUTION:The peak member 9 made of an optical fiber for guiding the light from the light emitting diode 10 is provided with absence parts 9' and their interval becomes narrower from the photodetecting surface side to the tip. This structure has more absence parts 9' at the tip side where the quantity of photodetection is small, so the quantity of light emission at the tip side is large and the intensity of light emission is made uniform between the photodetection terminal and the tip part. Consequently, such a problem that the light at the tip part is too weak to see at the time of night fishing is solved easily.

However, since the grooves were provided at the same intervals from the light-receiving surface to the tip of the top member, the intensity was different between the light-receiving surface side and the tip side of the top member. Moreover, the intensity of the light beam from the light emitting diode becomes weaker from the light-receiving surface side toward the tip end due to the distance relationship, and the light becomes difficult to see at the tip end.

である。[Structure of the Invention] In order to achieve the object described in item (2), the present invention provides a float body provided with a battery holding member having a conductor that conducts electrically with a light emitting diode, and a float body located on one side of the float body,
and a top member made of an optical fiber that guides light from the light emitting diode, and a removed portion is partially provided on the surface of the top member, and the removed portion extends from the light-receiving surface side to the tip end side of the top member. According to this configuration, there are fewer removed parts on the light-receiving surface side of the top member where the light is stronger due to the distance relationship, so the amount of light emitted decreases, and the end of the top member where the light is weaker. Since there are many deleted parts on the top side, the amount of light emitted increases, so the intensity of the light ray from the light-receiving surface side of the top member to the tip is approximately equal (from 1 to 1), and the intensity on the trench side increases. Also, with this configuration, the intensity is approximately equal between the light receiving surface side and the tip side of the JRS portion.

Remove this to expose the core 9b - this Jl・゛h exit part 9C
It is constructed by widening or cutting deeply down to the core 9b, and the amount of light emitted from this part is greater than from other parts. Also, this deleted section 9'
As shown in FIG. 1, the number of holes is increased from the iC light-receiving surface side to the tip end side of the top member 9. In other words, the deletion section 9
The interval ′ is made to gradually become smaller from the light-receiving surface side toward the tip end. 10 is the top part # of the top surface 10'

る。Note that the deleted portion 9' in the above configuration may be formed in the shape of a blood stain or may be formed as a spiral groove. For example, when the deleted portion 9' is formed as a spiral groove, Since it has a single groove shape and the grooves are not positioned facing each other, it is possible to improve the strength. Also, the deletion part 9'
If the groove is formed in the shape of a blood stain, the strength can be further improved since the groove is not a continuous groove such as a spiral groove.

９を交換することが容易に行なえる。In the electric float having the above configuration, by inserting the battery 6 into the battery holding member 2, a lighting circuit for the light emitting diode 10 is formed, and the light emitting diode 10 is lit. The light is then guided to the top member 9, causing the top member 9 to shine brightly as a whole. Furthermore, light emitted from the outer periphery of the light emitting diode 10 is transmitted through a connecting body 8 made of an opaque material, a connecting member 4, and a shielding plate 1.
Since it is blocked by 2, it does not leak to the outside,
Therefore, only the top member 9 of this electric float lights up, making it easier to judge the movement of the top member 9. In addition, the connecting body 8 is detachable from the connecting member 4, and the length of the connecting body 8 varies depending on the conditions of the fishing spot.
9 can be easily replaced.

In addition, when the shielding plate 12 is configured with 7 bons, the terminal 10a of the light emitting diode 1○,
One terminal 10a, 10b can be passed through by piercing one special hole 12a, 12b.
There is no need to form a

る。Since the removed portions 9' provided in the top electromagnetic phase 9 are increased from the light-receiving surface side toward the tip end of the top member 9, increasing the amount of light emitted from the tip end side where the light is weak is effective. As a result, the intensity of the light rays from the light-receiving surface side of the top member 9 to the tip end is approximately equal.

In addition, since the number of deleted parts is increased from the light-receiving surface side to the wash-end part of the top member, there are fewer deleted parts on the light-receiving surface side of the top member, where the light is stronger due to distance, so the amount of light emitted is reduced. On the tip side of the top member, where the light is weaker and the light is weaker, there are many deleted parts, so the amount of light emitted per unit is large, and as a result, the intensity of the light ray from the light receiving surface side of the top member to the tip is approximately equal. In terms of strength, this configuration also provides approximately equal strength between the light-receiving surface side and the tip end side of the top member.
