'''<u><font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;">Time Taken</font></u>'''<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;"><nowiki>: Based on the observation of research surrounding the disassembly of a bait-casting reel, we estimate that an organized disassembly, in which all parts are accounted for, will take approximately 30 – 45 minutes.</nowiki></font>

'''<u><font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;">Tools Required</font></u>'''<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;"><nowiki>: In order to reverse engineer our product properly, we will need the following:</nowiki></font>

<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;">To elaborate on the sheet, we feel that it will be helpful to disassemble the reel on an arbitrarily large sheet of paper that has been prepared with labeled sections, in clear writing, for each component. This will hopefully prevent us from losing track of any small pieces, such as screws and nuts.</font>

'''<u><font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;">Specific Challenges</font></u>'''<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;"><nowiki>: In our discussion about the key potential challenges of disassembly and assembly, we decided to be aware of a couple certain aspects that might cause adversity in our efforts to complete a successful reverse engineering process. The potential difficulties associated with disassembling the complex gear system, in an organized manner, is one of these aspects; This was considered in our reasoning to create the disassembly sheet prior to starting, and will hopefully go smoothly due to the degree of organization provided by the sheet. Another point of concern for us was the handling of the components during and after disassembly. Based on research and the observation of the reel, we were able to assume that some of the smaller parts might be small and delicate, and we decided to store our disassembled product in a safe container that will not threaten the integrity of the components.</nowiki></font>

This aspect is important because the group, as a whole, can work together to help improve the shortcomings of its members while simultaneously taking advantage of their skills to optimize the end result. In the following chart, we have compiled the capabilities and shortcomings of our group members.</font>

<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;">A fishing reel is a device that deploys and retrieves fishing line by using a spool mounted on an axle. They are most often (but not always) used in conjunction with a fishing rod. </font>
 
  
<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;">Although the birth of fishing reels is a mystery as it dates back far before any known records, the first use of a fishing reel can be seen in Chinese paintings from around 1195 A.D. However, unlike today, fishing reels were used for fishing as a means of living rather than a sport. As nearly all of East Asia relied majorly on fishing for their income, they were the first people known to use fishing reels.</font>
 
  
In 1651, English literature first reported a "wind” that was placed within two feet of the lower end of the fishing rod. This date is usually accepted as the first reference to a winch fishing reel in the western world.
 
  
Until the 1800's, the fishing reel was not much more than a storage place for excess line. The British claim to be the originators for the multiplying reel, but the fishing reels of George Snyder, of Kentucky, have become the most famous 19th century multipliers. Snyder's reels were developed in the 1820's, and are what you would think of as an "old fishing reel." From these reels is what came to what we think of today as a fishing reel. At the time, England was the center of most technological developments in the world.
 
  
<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;">In 1820, Kentucky native George Snyder invented the first fishing reel in America. It was a bait casting design that quickly became popular with American anglers. It was also able to double as a fly reel.</font>
 
  
<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;">And today, fishing reels are made for both commercial and industrial purposes as they are used to catch fish for fun as well as for a means of living. The use of fishing reels have not been altered much since its introduction to the modern world, however, fishing itself has found new purposes in the human society.</font>

Over the course of this semester, team 23 disassembled and re-assembled a Daiwa Baitcast Reel (Right Hand Retrieve). The main objective of this project was to carefully, analyze the reel, which includes the documentation of the internal parts so that any individual, regardless of prior experience, may also take it apart with ease. We also looked into its internal workings and all the mechanisms that are involved when the product is being used out in the field. The whole project was thus divided into Gates, each dealing with a level of the project. Lastly, after each assessment of our Gates, we attempted amending the Gates to better suite the needs of the instructors.

<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;">A fishing reel is used within the context of fishing activities. Although it can be used for commercial fishing, it is more commonly known for being used in the recreational sport of angling and competitive casting. A fishing reel is usually combined with a fishing rod, to which it is directly attached, and has the task of winding and stowing of the fishing line.</font>

<span style="mso-list: Ignore">1.<span style="font: 7.0pt &quot;Times New Roman&quot;">      </span></span>The frame can be categorized as a ‘1’ since its primary purpose is to simply encompass the rest of the reel. Its functions include the provision of the two side plates, which are constrained to the skeleton of the reel by screws, nuts, and bushings. There are specific holes cut in the side plate such that the handle and drag control can be held in place.
+
 
+
<span style="mso-list: Ignore">2.<span style="font: 7.0pt &quot;Times New Roman&quot;">      </span></span>The combination of the spool and spool control can be recognized as one essential part of the reel, and is categorized as a ‘3’. The main function of the spool is obviously to house the fishing line while a fisherman is either casting or retrieving his line, and although this may seem like an elementary principle, the spool becomes more complex as one considers the way the spools tension is manipulated. The spool tensioner is a knob located on the side plate; turning the knob clockwise yields more pressure applied to the spool, while turning it counterclockwise yields less pressure. This variation of spool pressure allows a fisherman to control how fast the spool is able to rotate.
+
 
+
<span style="mso-list: Ignore">3.<span style="font: 7.0pt &quot;Times New Roman&quot;">      </span></span>The ‘free-spool’ button has the one simple function of allowing the line to be cast when released from grip, and is thus categorized as a ‘1’.
+
 
+
<span style="mso-list: Ignore">4.<span style="font: 7.0pt &quot;Times New Roman&quot;">      </span></span>The handle is another component that is relatively less complex in that its purpose is intrinsic of its appearance. Although its importance is inherent, acting as the receptor for the kinetic energy delivered by the fisherman’s hand, it does not directly prompt any other individual functions within the reel, and is categorized as a ‘1’.
+
 
+
<span style="mso-list: Ignore">5.<span style="font: 7.0pt &quot;Times New Roman&quot;">      </span></span>The gear assembly is categorized as a ‘5’ and can be recognized as the most complex component for two reasons. The first is that the presence of the gear assembly is depended upon by all of the translational parts, or the parts that move. The second is that the term ‘gear assembly’ includes the totality of the gears within the reel, which aren’t found at one central location, but rather spread throughout the reel. The removal of the side plate reveals the drive gear calibrated with a smaller gear which engages the spool upon rotation of the handle. Another crucial gear, the worm drive, runs the length of the spool and provides for the uniform motion of the line guide.
+
 
+
<span style="mso-list: Ignore">6.<span style="font: 7.0pt &quot;Times New Roman&quot;">      </span></span>The line guide’s categorization of a ‘3’ is assigned based on its contribution to the continuous, smooth overall function of the reel. Although a relatively smaller component, the line guide interacts with the spool, frame, gear assembly, and the line itself. The worm drive causes the guide to move in an even, harmonic pattern back and forth across the frame in front of the spool. As line is retrieved, this motion allows for the line to be uniformly distributed back onto the spool, as to prevent line tangles.
+
 
+
<span style="mso-list: Ignore">7.<span style="font: 7.0pt &quot;Times New Roman&quot;">      </span></span>The braking system is categorized as a ‘3’; the reliance of other components and their functions is minimal, but when utilized by fishermen, the braking system interacts with the spool in a function carried out by a centrifugal method of spool tension, mimicking the function of the spool control. This ‘system’, located in the side plate furthest from the handle, consists of six pins which can be adjusted to control the spool tension in an effort to prevent spool overrun, which causes line tangles.
+
 
+
<span style="mso-list: Ignore">8.<span style="font: 7.0pt &quot;Times New Roman&quot;">      </span></span>Often referred to as the ‘star drag’, the drag system is categorized as a ‘4’. It is relatively complex due to its interactions and crucial purpose. First, the drag is manipulated by a star-shaped wheel located between the handle and the side plate, and is what allows the spool to ‘give’ when the line is under high tension. The system is a stack of drag washers of alternating materials, metal and fabric. The pressure applied to the stack of washers by the wheel is translated to the drive gear, which rests upon the same shaft. The drive gear meshes with the smaller gear which in turn engages the spool, hence the end-effect of the drag on the spool.

<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;">Although the complexity of the interactions within the reel can be derived from the above descriptions of the components’ functions, certain interactions can be highlighted to render an overall explanation of how the reel works in a segmented display of the steps taken when fishing:</font>

<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;">Based on simple observation of the external aspect of the product, we figure that there are at least 3 different materials present: </font>

+
<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;">The main interface of the user with our product is the ''handle''. This part of the reel is pretty intuitive to use. The main task is to “reel” the handle backwards to bring the fishes up to the surface.</font>
+
 
+
<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;"> </font>
+
 
+
<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;">The other main interface is the ''bail'' (or “pick up”) which is used to lock or unlock the fishing line in the fishing reel. This is what allows anglers to unlock the line so that they can cast it far away, and lock it so that they can “reel it” backwards to bring back fishes. This part of the product is a little more complicated to use and requires a minimum of knowledge and experience with fishing reels. With that being said, this device is not that complex and it gets quickly easier to handle with a minimum of practice.</font>
+
 
+
<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;"> </font>
+
 
+
<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;">With fishing reels, maintenance is delicate. Fishing reels require to be oiled frequently. Maintenance can also involve changing the fishing line. In any case, maintenance involves <span class="hps">disassembling the product and opening it; a task which requires experience with fishing reels.</span></font>

<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;">When casting a fly reel, the rod is held in the dominant hand, and the line would be stripped off the reel and manipulated by the other hand. This is much different than a bait casting reel because the line would remain on the spool of the reel.</font>

<font face="&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;">It is easier to adjust the line tension and drag with a spinning reel than with a bait casting reel. Overall, bait casting and spinning reels are very similar.<br /> The spin cast reel and <span class="SpellE">underspin</span> use a button to release the line.</font>

Project Overview

Over the course of this semester, team 23 disassembled and re-assembled a Daiwa Baitcast Reel (Right Hand Retrieve). The main objective of this project was to carefully, analyze the reel, which includes the documentation of the internal parts so that any individual, regardless of prior experience, may also take it apart with ease. We also looked into its internal workings and all the mechanisms that are involved when the product is being used out in the field. The whole project was thus divided into Gates, each dealing with a level of the project. Lastly, after each assessment of our Gates, we attempted amending the Gates to better suite the needs of the instructors.


Gate 1

This gate mainly dealt with the overall planning of the project. Furthermore, the products initial assessment was made without any attempt to disassemble it. This gate includes:

  • Work Proposal
  • Management Proposal
  • Product Archeology

Gate 1: Work and Management Proposal, Product Archeology


Gate 2

This gate dealt with the first practical work involved with the project, that is, the taking apart of the product along with its documentation. The subsystems were recognized and pictorial representation was used to help understand the step-by-step disassembly process. Also, the initial planning of the project was revised. This gate included:

  • Revision of Initial Planning
  • Product Dissection

Gate 2: Dissection of the Reel

Gate 3

This gate includes the in-depth analysis of the product, its subsystems; how they were manufactured and their specifications. Furthermore, design revisions and four factors were taken into consideration as well, and lastly, includes CAD drawings for some of the subsystems.

  • Project Management
  • Product Archeology and Assessment

Gate 3: Product Assessment and In-depth Analysis
