Abstract
A change speed apparatus for a fishing reel comprises a plurality of sun gears having different numbers of teeth, an input shaft carrying one of the sun gears and rotatable by a handle, an output shaft connected to a spool and carrying the other sun gear, a differential gear including toothed portions having different numbers of teeth for meshing with the plurality of sun gears, a gear holder for supporting the differential gear, a first transmission line for restricting rotation of the gear holder to transmit drive from the input shaft to the output shaft through the differential gear, a second transmission line for rendering the gear holder rotatable to directly couple the input shaft and the output shaft, and a transmission switching mechanism for selecting between the first transmission line and the second transmission line.
