Abstract
An oscillating mechanism in a fixed-spool fishing reel of the closed-face type has a supporting plate mounted in the frame of the fishing reel. The reel has a handle whose shaft extends through the supporting plate. A first gear is nonrotatably connected to the shaft of the handle. A second gear is supported by the supporting plate and meshes with the first gear. The second gear has a smaller diameter than the first gear and carries an eccentric pin. A slide is connected to the line spool of the fishing reel for oscillating the line spool when the handle is turned. The slide has an elongate recess in which the eccentric pin engages for oscillating the slide and, hence, the line spool when the handle is turned. The slide further has a guide slot in which the shaft of the handle engages as a guide pin.
