It has been. The foot 62 is a male screw whose support portion is screwed into the screw hole 61f, and as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the height of the housing 11 can be finely adjusted.

  Further, the liquid crystal display unit 29 including the liquid crystal display device 12 can be attached to the housing 11 by changing the vertical and horizontal directions as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11. In this case, first, the first back panel 42 shown in FIGS. 1, 3, 4, 6, and 7 is removed, and the back side of the recess 22 is exposed as shown in FIGS. Next, the liquid crystal display unit 29 is removed from the peripheral edge portion 22b of the concave portion 22 by releasing the screw, and the vertical and horizontal directions are changed, and the LCD base 34 is fitted into the peripheral edge portion 22b of the concave portion 22 from the front side. The screw hole 22c and the screw hole 34a shown in FIG. Finally, screws are attached from the back side, the LCD base 34 is fixed to the recess 22, and the liquid crystal display unit 29 is attached to the housing 11. In this way, the vertical and horizontal directions of the liquid crystal display unit 29 are easily changed.

  The vertical / horizontal change of the liquid crystal display unit 29 is specifically performed in accordance with the change of the game base 30 when the game content is changed.

  In such a gaming machine 10, the liquid crystal display device 12 that is shorter in the depth direction than the CRT display device is used as the display device, and the gaming board 30 is arranged so that the thickness direction thereof faces the depth direction of the housing 11. Since the lower space 52 to be accommodated is provided, the casing 11 is thinned in the depth direction, and the foot panel 16 projecting forward from the bottom of the casing 11 toward the operation side is a front surface of the casing 11. The casing 11 is further thinned because it does not protrude forward from the control panel 25 projecting forward from the liquid crystal display, and the casing 11 is further thinned because the liquid crystal display device 12 and the lower space 52 do not overlap in the depth direction. Has been. As a result, the installation space for the gaming machine 10 is saved.

  Further, in the gaming machine 10, when changing the vertical / horizontal direction of the screen as necessary, the liquid crystal display unit 29 formed by integrating the liquid crystal display device 12 and the monitor mask 33 constituting the rectangular frame of the screen is provided in the casing. 11 when the vertical / horizontal change is performed using a conventional CRT display device. Specifically, when the vertical / horizontal change is performed, the CRT display device and the square frame are separated from each other. The square frame is detachably attached to the front panel constituting the housing, and the CRT display device and the square frame are changed vertically and horizontally, respectively. Compared with the case of mounting, the vertical and horizontal changes are easy and simple.

  Further, in the gaming machine 10, since the liquid crystal display unit 29 has a square shape, the peripheral portion 22b and the screw hole 22c of the concave portion 22 for attaching the liquid crystal display unit 29 on the housing 11 side are common in the vertical and horizontal directions. .

  Further, when the casing 11 is thinned in this way, the installation balance is poor and the stability is lowered, and in the worst case, there is a risk of falling, but since the foot panel 16 is projected forward, the casing 11 is provided. The balance of the body 11 is improved and the stability is increased, and since the foot panel 16 includes the uneven portion 61, the rigidity of the foot panel 16 is increased and the stability is further increased. In particular, in the gaming machine 10 according to the present embodiment, the game is executed by the player sitting on a chair and stepping on the foot panel 16, so that the stability is further enhanced. As a result, the possibility of the gaming machine 10 falling is eliminated.

  Moreover, in such a gaming machine 10, since the foot panel 16 is provided with the uneven portions 61a to 61d arranged side by side on the lower surface, the uneven portions 61a to 61d do not interfere with the game. There is no sense of incongruity in the game of stepping on the panel 16.

  In addition, the gaming machine 10 is easily applied with force in the front-rear direction by the player during the game, but since the foot panel 16 is provided with the uneven portions 61a to 61d in the lateral width direction, this lateral direction The rigidity with respect to the force applied in the front-rear direction of the foot panel 16 is further enhanced by the concavo-convex portions 61a to 61d arranged side by side.

  Further, if the gaming machine 10 is thinned in this way, the heat inside the liquid crystal display device 12, the game board 30, and the power supply unit 31, which are heat generators, can easily raise the temperature inside the housing 11 and cause abnormal operation. However, the air in the thin space 50 that contacts the back surface of the liquid crystal display device 12, accommodates the power supply unit 31, and accommodates the game board 30 attached to the front surface of the partition plate 56 is exhausted to the exhaust port 45 by the fan 53. Since the air is exhausted, the heat in the housing 11 is radiated efficiently. As a result, the possibility of abnormal operation of the gaming machine 10 is eliminated.

  Since the front area 54 and the rear area 55 communicate with each other through the communication portion 57, heat generated from the game base 30 in the front region 54 is efficiently exhausted from the exhaust port 45 to the outside through the communication portion 57 by the fan 53. However, even if there is no communication portion 57 and the front region 54 and the rear region 55 are completely partitioned by the partition plate 56, the heat from the game board 30 is transmitted to the rear region 55 via the partition plate 56. The heat is effectively radiated by the fan 53.

  In addition, the gaming machine 10 is thinned in this way, and the upper side of the liquid crystal display device 12 is installed so as to be inclined gently backwards corresponding to this thinness, so the screen size of the liquid crystal display device 12 is reduced. Even if it is made smaller than the screen size of the CRT display device, it is felt that the angle of view of the liquid crystal display device 12 for the player is almost the same as the angle of view of the CRT display device that is further tilted rearward than the gentle tilt, Operated without discomfort. As a result, it is operated with the same feeling as before. In particular, in a gaming machine, if a player who is familiar with playing with a conventional CRT display device feels uncomfortable with the angle of view of the liquid crystal display device 12, there is a risk of not playing with the gaming machine with the liquid crystal display device. Therefore, it is particularly important that there is no sense of incongruity. In the present embodiment, the screen size is 20 inches, and the gentle inclination angle (attachment angle) of the liquid crystal display device 12 with respect to the vertical plane is 21 °.

  Further, the liquid crystal display device 12 is attached to the concave portion 22 provided in the front surface of the housing 11 with the above-mentioned gentle inclination, and the upper surface 58 constituting the concave portion 22 of the housing 11 is inclined obliquely downward toward the rear. Since the light-shielding panel 58 is used, the light-shielding panel 58 with this simple configuration prevents reflection of upper illumination and the like while maintaining a thin shape without providing a ridge or the like on the front surface of the housing 11. .

  Further, in the gaming machine 10, the power cable 47 is led out through the recessed portion 46 recessed toward the front side provided in the lower portion of the second back panel 43 that closes the lower space 52 from the back side. The cable 47 is bent to reduce the wiring space of the power cable 47 behind the back panel 19. As a result, the installation space including the power cable 47 is saved. In the gaming machine 10, the back panel 19 is arranged close to the wall of the game hall. In the battle type gaming machine 10, the back panels 19 face each other and are arranged close to each other. It is possible to do.

  The third back panel 44 below the recess 46 is formed as an inclined surface 44a that extends in the lateral width direction of the housing 11 and is inclined obliquely downward toward the front, and the power cable 47 passes through the recess 46. Since the power cable 47 is led out along the inclined surface 44 a, the power cable 47 is bent from the inside of the recess 46, and the bent power cable 47 is led and led so as to be hidden under the third back panel 44. . As a result, the wiring space for the power cable 47 behind the back panel 19 is not required, and the space is further reduced. Further, since the inclined surface 44a of the third back panel 44 uses the inclined surface 44a for mounting the transport casters 49, an increase in cost is prevented.

  In the gaming machine 10, the coin collection box 32 for collecting coins inserted from the coin insertion slot 28 at the right end portion of the control panel 25 projecting forward from the upper portion of the front panel 18 is thin in the lateral width direction. The box 11 extends in the depth direction and the height direction, is disposed below the coin insertion slot 28 in the lower space 52, and constitutes the casing 11 and the lateral end of the game base 30. Since the lower space 52 is disposed so as to be sandwiched between the right side plate portion 15 that closes from the side surface side, the gaming machine 10 is thinned in the depth direction without reducing the coin collecting volume. As a result, the installation space of the gaming machine 10 can be saved without reducing the coin collecting efficiency. Note that the coin insertion slot 28 and the coin collection box 32 are not limited to the right end portion in the lateral width direction, and may be located at the left end portion.

  As mentioned above, although this invention was concretely demonstrated based on the embodiment, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment. In the above embodiment, application to the gaming machine 10 is described. For example, it is installed on a floor surface or a predetermined table in a convenience store, and a customer purchases goods, tickets, entrance tickets for leisure facilities, The present invention can be similarly applied to an information terminal device provided with an information processing infrastructure capable of paying a price, booking an accommodation facility, and the like.
