ABSTRACT:
A handle folding device for a fishing reel having a handle arm for manual rotation and a handle shaft for transmitting the manual rotation to a spool. A handle arm is pivotably supported onto the handle shaft so as to be pivoted between an up-standing position and a folded position. The handle arm in the up-standing position is retained relative to the handle shaft by the engagement between a step portion of the handle shaft and a handle stopper pivotably mounted on the handle arm. The handle arm in the folded position is also retained relative to the handle shaft by the engagement between the handle stopper and a recess formed on the handle shaft. Since the handle arm can be surely retained in its folded position as well as in its up-standing position, many advantages are produced in carrying the fishing reel by a fisherman, accommodating the fishing reel within a case in a manufacturing line, and so on.
