Wall panel assembly

An automatic rewinding two-speed fishing reel that utilizes a transmission which includes a post assembly mounted on a driver that is rotatable on a shaft that connects to a recess arrangement formed in a low gear that is also rotatable on the shaft. The post assembly is engaged with the recess arrangement when in the low speed mode and is displaced from the recess arrangement when in the high speed mode. Connecting wall surfaces between the post assembly and the recess arrangement form an angle other than ninety degrees and preferably between ten and sixty degrees relative to the longitudinal center axis of the shaft.

Automatic speed adjusting fishing reel

An automatic two-speed transmission for a fishing reel comprises a spool mounted on a spool shaft, a drive sleeve mounted on a drive shaft disposed parallel to the spool shaft. A low gear driver nonrotatably mounted on the drive shaft engages the low gear when the low gear rotates at a speed less than the drive shaft, the low gear driver disengaging from the low gear when the low gear rotates at a speed greater than the drive shaft. The low gear drives a low pinion gear that turns the spool. A high gear is disposed on the drive sleeve between clutch washers, the clutch washers providing frictional resistance against the high gear in order to engage the high gear, which in turn engages a high pinion gear that turns the spool. A tension preset device selectably adjusts the drive sleeve and the drive shaft axially relative to each other, squeezing the high gear between the clutch washers.
