Abstract

In the clutch pinion slidably fitted on a spool shaft so that an engagement projection of the spool shaft can be engaged with and disengaged from a clutch engagement recess of the clutch pinion. The clutch pinion is integrally formed with planar surfaces and inclined surfaces for defining clutch the engagement recess in the form of a transverse slot. The pinion has a pinion tooth portion from one end to the other end thereof, and has an annular engagement portion in the form of an outer peripheral groove in which a clutch plate is engaged. The planar surfaces and the inclined surfaces which are disposed around a clutch engagement recess are integrally connected together in order to reduce a change in the distance between the planar surface, thereby always maintaining a stable rotation transmission and a clutch performance.
