[0001]
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a gaming machine having a three-dimensional decoration on a front surface.
[0002]
[Prior art]
As a conventional technique relating to this type of gaming machine, there is an assembling structure in which a lamp display for giving a luminous decoration on a front surface of the gaming machine body has a three-dimensional shape (for example, see Patent Document 1). In this known assembling structure, a main body base for accommodating a lamp is arranged at an upper portion of a front surface of a game machine main body, and a light transmitting lens member is mounted to the main body base. The lens member extends in the width direction of the main body of the gaming machine, and has an outer shape that is in the shape of a kamaboko projecting toward the front side. The lens member is hollow and has an open rear surface, and an engagement protrusion is provided on a peripheral edge thereof. On the other hand, the main body base is provided with an engagement hole at a position corresponding to the engagement projection of the lens member. When assembling the lens member to the main body base, the individual engagement projections are respectively provided at the corresponding positions of the engagement holes. After that, the lens member is further screwed to the main body base.
[0003]
As a related technique, there is a display lamp in which a cover (light-transmitting lens) of a winning display lamp is detachably attached to a mounting board (for example, see Patent Document 2). In this known display lamp, a locking piece having a locking claw is provided on the opening edge of the rear surface of the cover, while a hook-shaped locking piece is provided on the mounting board at a position corresponding to the locking piece of the cover. A receiving part is provided. Since the locking claw can be engaged with the locking receiving portion so as to be detachable, when the cover is pushed into the mounting board, the locking claw and the locking receiving portion engage to assemble the cover. It is thought that it is possible.
[0004]

JP-A-7-185072 (pages 1-3, FIGS. 1 and 3)
[Patent Document 2]
Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 4-33884 (pages 1-3, FIGS. 2, 3)
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Recognized that the former assembly structure covers most of the assembly of the lens member by the engagement between the engagement projections and the engagement holes, and simplifies the assembly work by minimizing the number of screwed portions. Can be However, even if it is the smallest part, the screwing itself is not completely eliminated, and the assembling work of the lens member is still complicated. In addition, after the lens member is assembled, the screwed portion is exposed on the front surface, so that the decorative appearance is impaired.
[0006]
On the other hand, the latter display lamp does not need to be screwed and can be assembled simply by pushing the cover into the mounting board. It is considered that the introduction of the engagement relationship makes it possible to eliminate the screw stop portion.
[0007]
However, in the latter display lamp, the cover is covered by a glass plate, whereas in the former assembly structure, since the lens member is exposed outside the game machine main body, external force is applied even after the assembly. There is a lot of opportunity to receive this, and there is a possibility that the engagement relationship may be lost at some time. For example, during the manufacturing / distribution process of a gaming machine or after installation in a game arcade, when an operator or a player's body or the like comes into contact with a lens member, an external force at that time causes the engagement between the locking claw and the locking receiving portion. May come off, and the lens member may fall off from the gaming machine body. In particular, since the above-mentioned lens member has a three-dimensional shape and is prone to an external force because it protrudes toward the front side of the game machine main body, it can be said that the possibility of falling off is further increased accordingly.
[0008]
Therefore, an object of the present invention is to make the decorative member three-dimensionally shaped and enhance its decorative effect, to be easily attached to a gaming machine, and to reduce the risk of the decorative member falling off.
[0009]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The gaming machine of the present invention includes a gaming area formed on the front of the gaming machine and a decoration area formed around the gaming area, and the decoration area has a three-dimensional outer shape protruding toward the front side. The decorative member having is attached. The decorative member may be a light-transmissive lens (such as a lamp cover) or a panel component or the like that provides decorative decoration.
[0010]
In a gaming machine, a game by a player (for example, a pachinko game, an arrangement ball game, a slot machine game, or the like) is performed in a game area, and a decoration (for example, a luminous decoration) in a staging accompanying the progress of the game or a design-related decoration The decoration is applied in the decoration area. For this reason, by making the decorative member have a three-dimensional outer shape, the decorative effect of the design of the gaming machine can be enhanced, and the unique effect of the light emitting decoration can be expected.
[0011]
On the other hand, as described above, while the decorative member is required to be easily attached, it is necessary to prevent the decorative member from being easily dropped off after the attachment. Therefore, a gaming machine of the present invention includes a mounting portion provided in a decoration area for fitting and mounting a decorative member, and fixing means for fixing the decorative member to the mounting portion (solution 1). ). Accordingly, since the mounting of the decorative member can be performed only by the work of fitting to the mounting portion, the mounting operation is simplified, and after the decorative member is fitted to the mounting portion, the decorative member is fixed by the fixing means. Is prevented from falling off.
[0012]
Alternatively, in the gaming machine of the present invention, the mounting portion provided in the decoration area for mounting the decoration member, locking means for locking the decoration member to the mounting portion, and the decoration member is locked by the locking means. At this time, there is provided a release preventing means for preventing the locked state from being released by an external force applied to the decorative member (solution means 2).
[0013]
As described above, since the decorative member is configured to be locked to the mounting portion, the work of attaching the decorative member can be facilitated. Further, when the decorative member is locked, the locked state can be prevented from being released by an external force, so that, for example, some external force is applied to the decorative member during a manufacturing / distribution process of a gaming machine or after installation in a game arcade. Even so, the decorative member does not drop off undesirably.
[0014]
Further, as described above, the decorative member is devised in various ways in design, so that the specific shape is rarely monotonous. For this reason, the decorative member has a main body that extends in a predetermined longitudinal direction along the front surface of the gaming machine and has a convex cross section as viewed in the longitudinal direction. In some cases, the inclination with respect to the front surface is different in size in the longitudinal direction. In this case, the above-described release prevention means can prevent release of the locked state to the mounting portion at the position where the inclination of the cross section is relatively large as described above (solution 3).
[0015]
In other words, the decorative member has an outer shape protruding toward the front side of the gaming machine, and a position where the inclination of the cross section in the main body is relatively large is such that the inclination is also large on the outer surface, and a portion where the worker or the player is easy to put a hand. Become. For example, when a player handles a gaming machine in the process of manufacturing and distributing the gaming machine, the decorative member protruding from the front of the gaming machine is easy to touch with fingers, and particularly at a position where the inclination is relatively large, a work force is applied. It can be said that it is an easy part. In addition, after the gaming machine is installed in the game arcade, the decoration member can easily touch the player's body or belongings, and particularly in a position where the inclination is relatively large, the player may unconsciously or intentionally hold the player. It can be said that it is a part that can be easily picked and applied with external force. For this reason, it is possible to effectively prevent the decorative member from falling off by preventing the release of the locked state to the mounting portion particularly at a position where the inclination of the cross section is relatively large. Further, in this case, at other positions (positions where the inclination of the cross section is relatively small), only the locking by the locking means is performed, so that the normal mounting work can be made easier.
[0016]
As another design element, the decorative member has a main body that extends in a predetermined longitudinal direction along the front surface of the gaming machine and has a convex cross section as viewed in the longitudinal direction. May have different shapes in the longitudinal direction. In this case, the release prevention means described above can prevent release of the locked state to the mounting portion at a position where the width of the main body of the decorative member is relatively small (solution means 4).
[0017]
That is, the decorative member has an outer shape protruding toward the front side of the gaming machine, and a position where the width of the main body is relatively small is a portion that can be easily grasped or picked by an operator or a player. For example, when a player handles a gaming machine in the process of manufacturing and distributing the gaming machine, a decorative member protruding from the front of the machine is easy to touch with a finger, and particularly, a position where the width of the main body is relatively small is a work force. It can be said that the part is easy to apply. In addition, after the gaming machine is installed in the game arcade, the decoration member can easily touch the player's body or belongings, and especially where the width of the main body is relatively small, the player unconsciously or intentionally grasps it. It can be said that it is a part where it is easy to apply external force by dripping or picking. For this reason, it is possible to effectively prevent the decorative member from falling off by preventing the unlocked state of the decorative member from being attached to the mounting portion particularly at a position where the width of the main body of the decorative member is relatively small. Further, in this case, at other positions (positions where the width of the main body is relatively large), only the locking by the locking means is performed, so that the normal mounting operation can be facilitated.
[0018]
In some cases, the longitudinal direction of the main body of the decorative member is defined along the outer periphery of the game area. In this case, it is preferable that the release prevention means prevents the locked state of the decorative member from being released by an external force directed outward from the game area (solution means 5).
[0019]
In other words, the decorative member has a relatively large inclination in a part of the longitudinal direction or a relatively small width in the longitudinal direction, so that the decorative member is relatively large in the width direction (the direction crossing the longitudinal direction). They tend to be subject to external forces. For this reason, when the longitudinal direction of the decorative member is defined along the outer periphery of the game area, an external force directed outward from the game area just acts in the width direction of the decorative member. The mode of preventing the cancellation is very reasonable.
[0020]
As a specific configuration, the above-described locking means has a locking claw provided on one of the mounting portion and the decorative member, and a locking claw provided on the other side to receive the locking claw, and engages with the locking claw with this receiving operation. And a mating engaging portion. Further, the release preventing means connects the mounting portion and the decorative member to each other in a state where the decorative member is attached to the mounting portion, and prevents the locking claw from being displaced in a direction in which the locking claw is disengaged from the engaging portion. A dovetail is included (solution 6). As described above, since the decorative member can be locked to the mounting portion only by the engagement between the locking claw and the engaging portion, the work of attaching the decorative member can be facilitated. The decoration member and the mounting portion are connected via the dovetail portion, and deformation of the decoration member due to external force is suppressed.
[0021]
Further, the locking claw can be received in the engaging portion by pushing the decorative member into the gaming machine from the front side thereof, and the above-mentioned dovetail portion has a direction in which the tenon is inserted into the dovetail groove. It matches the pushing direction of the member (solution 7). According to such an embodiment, since the locking by the locking claws and the connection by the dovetail portion can be realized at a time only by pushing the decorative member, the mounting operation is extremely efficient.
[0022]
When the luminous decoration is performed in the decoration area, the decoration member includes a lamp cover that transmits light to the front side of the gaming machine to perform the luminous decoration. While the tenon is formed, the dovetail groove of the engaging portion and the dovetail portion is formed in the mounting portion (solution means 8). In this case, the lamp cover can perform light emission decoration by diffusing the light of the light source (lamp or LED) disposed behind the lamp cover and transmitting the light to the front side, thereby providing a lamp cover having a three-dimensional outer shape. Light-emitting decoration with a high effect can be realized. In addition, even if the game machine has a three-dimensional lamp cover, the lamp cover does not fall out undesirably during the manufacturing and distribution process of the game machine or after installation in the amusement arcade. Is greatly reduced.
[0023]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
1 to 3 show a gaming machine 1 according to one embodiment. The gaming machine 1 is of a type that provides a pachinko game or an arranged ball game using a game ball. However, the present invention may be a gaming machine that provides a slot machine game using gaming balls or medals.
[0024]
The gaming machine 1 is configured on the basis of an outer frame 2 which is vertically elongated and formed in a rectangular shape, and various components are arranged inside the outer frame 2. The gaming machine 1 has a glass frame 4 on the front surface of the main body, and the glass frame 4 covers at least an upper half of the front surface of the main body of the gaming machine 1. Further, the glass frame 4 is supported at one side edge (in this example, the left side edge when viewed from the front) via a hinge in the width direction, and therefore, the glass frame 4 is horizontal at the front side of the gaming machine 1. It can be opened and closed in any direction.
[0025]
A game board (not shown) is arranged inside the glass frame 4, that is, inside the main body of the game machine 1, and the type of the game machine 1 is characterized by its board surface configuration. A game board usually has a game area formed in the center of the board, and in this game area, panel components such as a liquid crystal display device, various accessories, obstacle nails, a windmill, a winning opening, etc. (Not shown).
[0026]
An upper plate 6 is arranged below the glass frame 4, and a lower plate 8 and a firing handle 10 are further arranged below the upper plate 6. Both the upper plate 6 and the lower plate 8 are unitized together with the surrounding parts, and each unit is decorated with a design according to the design of the glass frame 4. The upper plate 6 thus unitized also has a left edge supported by a hinge, and thus can be rotated in the horizontal direction at the front side of the gaming machine 1 like the glass frame 4. ing.
[0027]
In addition, as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, a ball tank 12, a back set 14, a launching motor 16, an electronic device 18 and the like are arranged on the back of the gaming machine 1, all of which are provided together with the base frame 20. 1 is rotatable in the horizontal direction at the front side.
[0028]
As shown in FIG. 1, the glass frame 4 has a glass surface 20 at the center thereof, and the above-mentioned game area can be visually recognized by a player through the glass surface 20. In addition, on the front surface of the glass frame 4, a periphery of the glass surface 20, which is a game area, is formed as a decoration area, and various decoration members are arranged in the decoration area.
[0029]
In the present embodiment, for example, three lamp covers 22, 24, 26 are arranged in the vertical direction along the right edge of the glass frame 4 as decorative members. Similarly, three lamp covers 28, 30, and 32 are arranged along the left edge of the glass frame 4 in the vertical direction. Each of the lamp covers 22 to 32 is made of a light transmissive material, and has a function as a lens that diffuses light by providing irregularities on its inner surface.
[0030]
Further, the periphery of the glass surface 20 is bordered by a curved molding 34, and in this embodiment, the outline of the glass surface 20 has a gourd shape as a whole. The above-mentioned lamp covers 22 to 32 are arranged adjacent to the molding 34 and have a curved outer shape so as to conform to the shape thereof. In addition, each of the three lamp covers 22 to 32 on the left and right sides is an independent decorative member, but forms a series of designs while being attached to the glass frame 4, thereby exhibiting a unique decorative effect. .
[0031]
When viewed from the front of the gaming machine 1, the lamp covers 22 to 32 are all elongated in the vertical direction. In particular, the lamp covers 22, 26 (right and up and down) and the lamp covers 28 and 32 (left and up and down) located respectively on the left and right are up and down. It extends so as to extend above and below the glass surface 20. Therefore, the longitudinal direction of the lamp covers 22 to 32 is defined along the outer periphery of the glass surface 20 which is a game area. Each of the lamp covers 22 and 26 and the lamp covers 28 and 32 has one end portion largely swelled in the width direction, and has a shape of a bevel as a whole. For this reason, the lamp covers 22 and 26 and the lamp covers 28 and 32 have different widths in the longitudinal direction.
[0032]
The above is the description of the shape (outline of the main body) of the lamp covers 22 to 32 as viewed from the front of the gaming machine 1. As is clear from FIGS. 2 and 3, the lamp covers 22 to 32 are located on the front side of the gaming machine 1. It has a three-dimensional shape protruding toward. Further, as specifically shown in FIG. 2, for example, the right lamp covers 22, 24, and 26 all have undulations that wave in the longitudinal direction when viewed from the side. The left and right lamp covers 28, 30, and 32 are also provided with undulations in the longitudinal direction by the same design method.
[0033]
In this embodiment, each of the lamp covers 22 to 32 has an elongated mountain shape, and therefore has a curved shape along the longitudinal direction of the lamp covers 22 to 32 as shown by a dashed line in FIG. Ridge line L ₁ ~ L ₆ Can be virtually drawn. Further, the ridge line L is viewed from the front of the gaming machine 1. ₁ ~ L ₃ (Or L ₄ ~ L ₆ ) Are connected in a curved line, giving a three-dimensional uniformity to the designs of the left and right lamp covers 22 to 32.
[0034]
FIGS. 4 to 6 show the lamp cover 22 located at the upper right of the glass frame 4. Hereinafter, the specific shape and attachment to the glass frame 4 will be described using the lamp cover 22 as an example. However, the following description can be applied not only to the lamp cover 22 but also to the other lamp covers 24 to 32.
[0035]
The glass frame 4 has a mounting base 36 on the front surface thereof, and the lamp cover 22 is mounted on the mounting base 36. An opening having a shape conforming to the contour of the lamp cover 22 is formed on the front surface of the mounting base 36, and the lamp cover 22 is fitted into the opening of the mounting base 36 from the front side of the glass frame 4 as shown in FIG. It can be attached so that it fits.
[0036]
A plurality of locking claws 38 are formed on the periphery of the lamp cover 22. These locking claws 38 are arranged at intervals from each other, and protrude from the peripheral edge of the lamp cover 22 in the mounting direction. In the present embodiment, three locking claws 38 are arranged at a position closer to the inside and two locking claws 38 at a position closer to the outside when viewed from the front of the gaming machine 1.
[0037]
On the other hand, a flange 40 is formed in the mounting base 36 at a position one step behind the opening, and the flange 40 is formed so as to surround the inner edge of the opening. Engaging portions 42 are formed on the flange 40 at positions corresponding to the locking claws 38 of the lamp cover 22, and the flange 40 is cut out in a U-shape at the positions of the engaging portions 42. .
[0038]
7 and 8 show a state where the lamp cover 22 is attached. When the lamp cover 22 is pushed into the mounting base 36, each locking claw 38 is received by the engaging portion 42. At this time, each locking claw 38 is slightly elastically deformed toward the inside of the lamp cover 22 while rubbing against the engaging portion 42. After that, when the lamp cover 22 is pushed in until the peripheral edge of the lamp cover 22 abuts against the flange 40, the hook formed on the tip of the locking claw 38 as shown in FIG. And the lamp cover 22 is locked to the mounting base 36.
[0039]
At this time, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 8, the lamp cover 22 and the mounting base 36 are interconnected by a dovetail. More specifically, a splicing tenon 44 is formed on the periphery of the lamp cover 22, and a groove 46 is formed in the flange 40 of the mounting base 36 at a position corresponding to the tenon 44. When the lamp cover 22 is pushed into the mounting base 36 as described above, the locking claw 38 is received by the engaging portion 42 and the tenon 44 is inserted into each dovetail groove 46 to realize a joint portion. Is done. At this time, since the dovetail portion functions to prevent the lamp cover 22 from coming off inward, even if an external force such as pushing the edge of the lamp cover 22 inward is applied, the locking claw 38 is engaged. Displacement in the direction away from the part 42 is prevented.
[0040]
As shown in FIG. 8, an LED 48 is disposed as a light source inside the lamp cover 22, and the lamp cover 22 functions as a lens that diffuses the light of the LED 48 and transmits the light to the front side. Note that a plurality of LEDs 48 are arranged along the longitudinal direction of the lamp cover 22.
[0041]
Further, as shown in FIG. 7, several ridges 50 are formed on the inner surface of the lamp cover 22 so as to form a grain, and these ridges 50 are arranged at an interval from each other. The inner surface of the cover 22 extends in the longitudinal direction. The light of the LED 48 is diffused in a complicated manner by the ridges 50 when passing through the lamp cover 22, thereby causing various changes in the light emission decoration. In addition, the protrusion 50 is not shown in FIG.
[0042]
Here, as shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 8, the lamp cover 22 has a convex shape with a mountain-shaped cross section as viewed in the longitudinal direction. Therefore, the lamp cover 22 is subjected to external force in the direction of pressing down from both side edges. On the other hand, it tends to be easily deformed. For this reason, in the present embodiment, the lamp cover 22 is suppressed from being deformed in the width direction at the above-described dovetail portion, and the locking claw 38 is prevented from coming off the engagement portion 42 due to an external force.
[0043]
In the present embodiment, two dovetail grooves 46 and tenons 44 are provided at positions closer to the inside when viewed from the front of the gaming machine 1. The dovetail groove 46 and the tenon 44 are provided in the vicinity of the locking claw 38 at positions where the width is relatively small as viewed in the longitudinal direction of the lamp cover 22 or where the inclination with respect to the front surface of the gaming machine 1 is relatively large. .
[0044]
That is, the lamp cover 22 has a contour which is narrowed in the longitudinal direction when viewed from the front, and the width is relatively small in a middle portion thereof. Further, the slope (or curvature) of the cross section of the lamp cover 22 differs greatly in the longitudinal direction, and the slope (or curvature) is relatively large especially in the portions shown in FIGS. 7 and 8.
[0045]
As described above, the lamp cover 22 has a relatively small width at the middle portion in the longitudinal direction, and thus it can be understood that the lamp cover 22 is located at a position where the worker or the player can easily pick it with his / her finger. Further, it is understood that in a portion where the inclination with respect to the front surface of the gaming machine 1 is relatively large, the catch in the width direction is large, and external force is easily applied by that much.
[0046]
For this reason, in the present embodiment, the joint portion is provided particularly at the middle position of the lamp cover 22 or at a position where the inclination with respect to the front surface is relatively large, so that the deformation due to the external force in the width direction after the attachment is efficiently suppressed. At other positions, a locking structure using the locking claws 38 is employed to facilitate the work of mounting the lamp cover 22.
[0047]
Also, as shown in FIG. 7, especially after the gaming machine 1 is installed in the game arcade, as a main mode in which the player applies an external force to the lamp cover 22 unconsciously or intentionally, the inner edge of the lamp cover 22 is set in the game area. It is conceivable to push it toward the outside. This is because, when a player intends to apply an external force to the lamp cover 22, it is extremely natural that the thumb is hooked on the inner edge of the lamp cover 22 and the other finger is hooked on the mounting base 36, for example, to apply the force. The direction of such external force is approximately outward from the game area, and coincides with the direction in which the lamp cover 22 is pressed in the width direction as described above.
[0048]
In the present embodiment, since the joint is provided at a position closer to the inside as viewed from the front of the gaming machine 1 in particular, even if the player applies an external force to the lamp cover 22 unconsciously or intentionally, the locking is performed. The claw 38 can be effectively prevented from coming off the engagement portion 42.
[0049]
As described above, in this embodiment, the latch claw 38 engages with the engagement portion 42 simply by pushing the lamp cover 22 into the mounting base 36, and the tenon 44 can be inserted into the groove 46. In this state, the lamp cover 22 is securely locked to the mounting base 36, and the locked state is reliably prevented from being released by an external force applied to the lamp cover 22. Therefore, the mounting work of the lamp cover 22 is extremely easy, and there is no possibility that the lamp cover 22 will undesirably fall off after the mounting.
[0050]
Further, for example, even if a player intentionally attempts a mischief that applies an external force to the lamp cover 22, it cannot be easily removed, so that a mischief of removing or removing the lamp cover 22 can be prevented. It can also be expected to have a deterrent effect of giving up more mischief.
[0051]
As described above, in one embodiment, a mode in which the dovetail portion is provided only at a specific position (a position in the middle of the lamp cover 22 or a position where the inclination with respect to the front surface is relatively large and inward) is described. However, the dovetail portion can be provided at other positions as appropriate.
[0052]
Further, in one embodiment, the lamp cover 22 is described as being taken up. However, for example, if the lamp cover 28 has a large size such as the lamp cover 28 located at the upper left, the number, size, shape, and the like of the locking claws 38 are determined. It may be changed as appropriate. Alternatively, if the lamp cover 24 is located at the right center and the lamp cover 32 is located at the lower left and has a relatively small size and is hardly subjected to external force, the dovetail portion may be omitted. In this case, even if the lamp covers 24 and 32 are simply locked by the locking claws 38, there is no particular risk of falling off.
[0053]
In addition, the specific sizes, shapes, and structures of the various lamp covers 22 to 32, the locking claws 38, the engaging portions 42, and the like described in the embodiment are all preferred examples, and these can be appropriately modified. .
Further, in one embodiment, the lamp covers 22 to 32 are taken as examples of the decorative member, but the decorative member may be used as a decorative ornament.
[0054]
