Abstract
A click sound generator for a spinning reel includes a clicking toothed wheel and a ratchet wheel secured to a quill that projects out of the front portion of the body of the reel. A clicking claw can be engaged with, or disengaged from, the clicking toothed wheel, and is supported on an anti-reversing lever shaft projecting out of the front portion of the body of the reel. A spring urges the clicking claw to engage the claw and clicking toothed wheel. An anti-reversing pawl is urged into engagement with the rachet wheel by a guide spring and can be disengaged from the ratchet wheel. An anti-reversing lever cam moves the clicking claw in both the axial and circumferential direction.
