DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a ball launching operation device for a pachinko machine.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 4 shows a ball launching operation device of a pachinko machine disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 2599108. 4, reference numeral 101 denotes a front frame; 102, a lower plate device attached to the front frame 101; 103, a handle grip obliquely fixed to the lower plate device 102;
Is the handle lever. When the player operates the handle lever 104 in one direction, the handle grip 1
On the basis of the electric signal output from 03, a ball launching device (not shown) launches a ball supplied from an upper dish device (not shown).

[0003]

In the prior art, however, the handle grip 103 is provided obliquely to improve operability. However, the handle grip 103 is attached to the lower plate 102 made of synthetic resin. Due to the structure, the strength of the joint between the handle grip 103 and the lower plate apparatus 102 is low, and the operation of lifting the handle grip 103 and closing the front frame 101, which is generally performed in a pachinko parlor, is repeated. There is a high possibility that the handle grip 103 will rattle or break, and it is undeniable that quality reliability is lacking.

Accordingly, the present invention provides a ball shooting operation device for a pachinko machine capable of increasing the mounting strength of a handle grip.

[0005]

According to the present invention, the handle grip is fixed to the front frame through the lower plate device from the front side. Therefore, according to the present invention, since the handle grip is fixed to the front frame that is the skeletal member, the mounting strength of the handle grip increases,
Quality reliability can be improved. In the present invention, if the handle grip is attached to the front frame at an angle, the operability of the handle grip can be improved. Further, in the present invention, if the handle grip is attached to the fixture fixed to the front frame, the attachment strength of the handle grip can be further increased. Further, in the present invention, if the front frame, the lower plate device, and the fixture are connected to each other, the positioning between the handle grip and the lower plate device becomes accurate.

1 to 3 show an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 1 shows a cross section of a mounting structure of a ball launching operation device cut in a lateral direction, and FIG. 2 shows a ball launching operation device. 3 shows the appearance of the coupling 40 from the front side.

Referring to FIG. 2, the ball launch operation device will be described. The frame-shaped front frame 1 has a handle grip 2 on the lower edge.
A mounting hole 4 for mounting the lower plate device 10 and a mounting hole 6 for mounting the lower plate device 10 are provided. The lower plate device 10 is provided with a fixture 11 such as an insert bolt, a ball inlet 12 and a grip escape hole 13 on the back surface. The handle grip 20 includes a wiring 22 extending outward from the back surface of the grip body 21, a connector 23 at an end of the wiring 22, a mounting hole 24 on the back surface of the grip body 21, and an outer peripheral surface of the grip body 21. It has a convex rotation stopper 25, a handle lever 26 rotatably mounted on the front side of the grip body 21, and a cap 27 on the front side of the handle lever 26. Cap 2
7 is fixed to the grip body 21.

The fixture 30 is made of metal as a single body having a central grip fixing portion 31 and frame fixing portions 32 on both sides. The grip fixing portion 31 has a wiring hole 33 and mounting holes 34; The fixing portion 32 has a mounting hole 36. When the frame fixing portion 32 is attached to the back surface of the front frame 1, the front side surface of the grip fixing portion 31 is formed obliquely with the front side surface of the front frame 1 at a predetermined angle θ1 (see FIG. 1). In the case of this embodiment, when the front frame 1 is viewed from the front side, the center line L of the handle grip 20 fixed to the grip fixing portion 31 provided on the right side of the front frame 1 and the front side surface of the front frame 1 are aligned. Since the vehicle is tilted rightward at the predetermined angle θ2 based on the predetermined angle θ1, the operability of the handle grip 20 is improved.

The coupling 40 is attached to the grip fixing portion 31 with a set screw 50, and
The handle grip 20 is supported so as not to rotate by fitting the rear end of the handle grip 20 from the front side, and includes a wiring hole 41 and a mounting hole 42. As also shown in FIG.
The coupling 40 has a storage recess 43 on the front side for storing the rear end of the grip body 21, and a peripheral wall 44 surrounding the storage recess 43 has a groove 45 for storing the rotation stopper 25 of the grip body 21.

The assembly according to the present embodiment will be described. First, the fixture 30 and the coupling 40 are fixed to each other. To this end, the coupling 40 is fixed to the front side surface of the grip fixing portion 31 with a set screw 50 from the back side of the grip fixing portion 31. Next, the front frame 1, the fixture 30, and the lower plate device 10 are fixed to each other. To do so, the fixture 1 of the lower plate device 10
1 is inserted into the mounting hole 6 of the front frame 1 from the front side, and then the coupling 40 and the grip fixing portion 31 are
And the frame fixing portion 32 is inserted into the concave portion 3 of the front frame 1 from the back side. Some of the fixing tools 11 of the lower plate device 10 are inserted into the mounting holes 36 of the frame fixing portion 32 from the mounting holes 6 of the front frame 1. Then, the nut 51 is fastened to the fixing tool 11 projecting rearward from the front frame 1 and the frame fixing portion 32 in the lower plate device 10. Thereby, the front frame 1, the fixing tool 30, and the lower plate device 10 are fixed to each other by the fixing tool 11 and the nut 51.

Further, the handle grip 20 is attached to the lower plate device 1.
0 is fixed to the frame 1 through the front side. For this purpose, the grip body 21 is inserted into the grip escape hole 13 from the front side of the lower plate device 10 and inserted into the storage recess 43 of the coupling 40. At this time, the rotation stopper 25 of the grip body 21 is fitted into the groove 45 of the coupling 40 while the connector 2
3 and the wiring 22 are pulled out from the wiring hole 41 of the coupling 40 and the wiring hole 33 of the grip fixing portion 31 to the back side of the front frame 1. Then, the set screw 53 is inserted from the back side of the front frame 1 into the mounting hole 2 of the grip body 21 through the mounting hole 35 of the grip fixing portion 31.
Fasten to 4. As a result, the handle grip 20 is fixed to the fixture 30 via the grip escape hole 13 of the lower plate apparatus 10.
Fixed to

The same applies to the case where the coupling 40 is formed integrally with the fixture 30 or the handle grip 20 is attached to the front frame 1 without using the fixture 30.
