Patent ID: 8684295

Claim:
A cord reel comprising: two cords; and a cord reel body being capable of individually taking up and paying out the two cords, the cord reel body including a first bobbin and a second bobbin on which the respective cords are wound, a bobbin biasing means for continuously biasing the first bobbin and the second bobbin in a take-up direction, a bobbin interlock means for interlocking the first bobbin and the second bobbin, the bobbin interlock means being configured to interlock the first bobbin and the second bobbin in such a manner that, when both of the cords are not being operated in the take-up direction, the bobbin interlock means restricts rotation of the first bobbin and the second bobbin in the take-up direction, that, when the cords are operated in a pay-out direction by an operating force equal to or less than a preset value, the bobbin interlock means allows one of the bobbins to rotate in the pay-out direction and the other bobbin to rotate in the take-up direction in conjunction with the bobbin rotating in the pay-out direction, and that when the cords are operated in the pay-out direction by an operating force greater than the preset value, the bobbin interlock means releases the interlock between the first bobbin and the second bobbin to cause only the operated bobbin to rotate in the pay-out direction, a releasing means for releasing the restriction of the rotation of the first bobbin and the second bobbin in the take-up direction by the bobbin interlock means, and a connecting means for electrically connecting the two cords wound on the first bobbin and the second bobbin.
