ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a gear wheel casing for mounting in an apparatus, particularly a fishing reel. According to a preferred embodiment, the casing is in the form of a capsule comprising a cylindrical wall dimensioned to accommodate a single gear wheel and having an opening which is sufficiently wide to permit mounting of the gear wheel in the capsule but is sufficiently small to provide the capsule with a pronounced tendency to retain a gear wheel placed therein for permitting easy handling of the capsule and the gear wheel as a unit. Moreover, the cylindrical capsule wall has such an inner diameter that a gear wheel for which the capsule is dimensioned, projects, after its insertion in the capsule, through the opening a sufficiently great portion of its circumference to permit engagement with another gear wheel outwardly of the capsule which also comprises end walls for axially retaining the gear wheel, at least one of the end walls having an opening which is provided to permit insertion of a gear wheel shaft.
