DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a decorative lamp device for a pachinko machine mounted on a game area of a game board.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional decorative lamp device, a part of wiring or the like is inserted into a through hole formed in a game area of a game board, and a mounting plate of a lamp body is fastened to a front surface of the game board with a screw. It is designed to be attached. In addition, the decorative lamp device includes a lamp body attached to the front of the game board, a circuit board provided with a light emitting device, and a back plate, and has a structure in which those parts are assembled by fastening members such as screws. ing.

[0003]

In the above-mentioned conventional decorative lamp device, since the lamp cover portion and the mounting plate protrude above the board surface, the pachinko ball driven into the game area has a protruding portion. When a collision occurs, the pachinko ball is hit and hits the glass plate directly. Thus, there is a problem that the direct hit sound generated by the direct hit gives the player discomfort and the traveling direction of the pachinko ball becomes unstable.

Further, since the components of the decorative lamp device are assembled with fastening members such as screws, the assembling is troublesome and costly. When the lamp is repaired due to a failure or the like, it is troublesome because screws and the like for fixing each component must be removed one by one.

[0005] It is an object of the present invention to provide a pachinko machine in which the front surface of the lamp cover portion is substantially flush with the game board surface so that the pachinko ball does not hit the lamp cover portion directly, and the pachinko machine is easily assembled and disassembled. An object of the present invention is to provide a decorative lamp device in a machine.

[0006]

According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a pachinko machine in which a part is inserted and attached to a through hole formed in a game area of a game board. In the lamp device for, while forming a lamp cover portion having a hollow inside from the inner peripheral edge of the mounting plate addressed to the back of the game board and fixed,
A lamp body provided with a flat outer surface of a light-transmitting lens of the lamp cover portion, and a back plate provided with a light emitting device having a light emitting portion provided so as to cover an opening of the lamp body; When the main body is attached to the game board, the front surface of the lamp cover is configured to be substantially flush with the game board surface.

According to another aspect of the present invention, a lamp cover portion having a hollow inside protrudes from an inner peripheral edge of a mounting plate addressed to and fixed to a back surface of a game board. And a circuit board provided with a light emitting device, and a back plate for closing an opening of the lamp body. In the inner surface of the lamp cover, a boss having a positioning hole formed in a front end surface and an engagement recess formed in a side portion is integrally provided at at least two places, and the positioning plate is provided on an inner surface of the back plate. A projection for engaging with each of the holes is provided, and elastic resilient locking pieces each having a claw to be engaged with the engagement concave portion are integrally provided at at least two locations in opposition to each other. On the circuit board By applying the projection of the back plate passed through the formed through hole and pressing the back plate from the back side, the claws of the locking pieces are engaged with the engagement recesses of the boss, and the lamp body and the circuit board are The plate and the plate are assembled.

[0008]

When the lamp device is mounted by inserting the lamp cover into the through hole of the game board, the front surface of the lamp cover is substantially flush with the surface of the game board. This eliminates the situation where the pachinko ball hit into the game area hits the glass plate after hitting the lamp cover.

The projection of the back plate passed through the through hole of the circuit board is applied to the positioning hole of the lamp cover portion, and the back plate is pressed from the back side so that the elastic locking claw is engaged with the boss. The circuit board and the back plate are easily assembled to the lamp body by engaging with the mating recess. In addition, when the locking piece is pushed inward, the claw of the locking piece is disengaged from the engagement recess, so that the back plate and the circuit board can be easily disassembled from the lamp body.

According to this decorative lamp device, it is possible to eliminate the unpleasant sound seen in the conventional lamp device due to the pachinko ball being hit by the lamp cover and hitting the glass plate directly. Furthermore, since each component is fixed by using the elasticity of the locking piece, it is easy to assemble and disassemble, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 is a rear view of the decorative lamp device, FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA of FIG. 1, and FIG.
FIG. 4 is an explanatory view showing a state in which a lamp body, a circuit board, and a back plate are separated, and FIG. 5 is an explanatory view showing a state in which a decorative lamp device is disposed above a center of a game board.

In the decorative lamp apparatus L shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a plurality of mounting holes for fixing the arc frame-shaped mounting plate 2 of the synthetic resin lamp body 1 to the back surface b of the game board a are provided. A lamp cover portion 4 having a hollow inside from the inner peripheral edge of the mounting plate 2 is formed so as to protrude almost perpendicularly by the same dimension as the thickness of the game board a. Near the front center of the lamp cover 4, an outer surface 5
A large number of lenses 5 having a flat and transparent property are continuously fitted. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, positioning holes 7, 7 are formed in the front end surface 6 a of the bosses 6, 6 integrally protruding near the left and right ends of the inner surface 4 a of the lamp cover portion 4. A square hole-shaped engaging recess 8 is formed in each of the outer portions 6b.

Reference numeral 10 denotes a light emitting unit 1 such as a large number of light emitting diodes.
1 and a circuit board provided with a known light-emitting device composed of electronic components (not shown). The circuit board 10 has a plurality of through holes 12 for mounting corresponding to the positioning holes 7 of the lamp body 1 respectively. It is formed as follows. Reference numeral 15 denotes an arc-shaped back plate for closing the opening 1a of the lamp body 1. The inner surface 15a of the back plate 15 is provided with a plurality of projections 16 to be respectively engaged with the positioning holes 7 of the lamp cover portion 4 and a claw 18 to be engaged with the engagement concave portion 8 is formed. A substantially n-shaped locking piece 17 is provided integrally at least at two locations.

Then, the projection 16 of the back plate 15 passing through the through hole 12 of the circuit board 10 is applied to the positioning hole 7 of the lamp cover portion 4 and the back plate 15 is pressed from the back side to thereby engage the locking piece. 17 engages with the engaging recess 8 of the boss 6. As a result, the circuit board 10 and the back plate 15 are fixed to the lamp body 1 to form the decorative lamp device L.
