Description

  The present invention relates to a medal game device that drops inserted medals along a board surface.

In the medal game device that drops the inserted medals along the board surface, the board surface is arranged vertically, and a number of pins, movable hoppers, or rotating obstacles are provided on the board surface to drop by its own weight. The course of medals is distributed to make the game interesting (for example, see Patent Document 1).

  However, if the medals are dropped along a vertically arranged board surface, the drop speed of the medals will increase, the medals will soon reach the drop point and the game will end, so the game is not interesting was there. In addition, in order to diversify the course change of medals, it is necessary to increase the fall distance of medals, and there is a problem that the case becomes large in the height direction if a long distance is secured in the vertical direction of the board surface. .

Therefore, by tilting the board surface, which is the sliding surface of the medal, from the upper back side to the lower front side of the case, it is possible to increase the fall distance of the medal without increasing the size of the case in the height direction. . However, when the board surface is tilted, the medals fall down on the board surface due to the downward gravity action, but if the board surface is loose, the medals will come into close contact with the board surface and stop in the middle. Drop speed can be extremely slow. Therefore, the inventor of the present application has invented a technique of configuring a part of the inclined surface with a movable member, and suppressing the height of the casing while diversifying the course change of medals by moving the movable member.

However, the movement speed of the medals on the movable member is less than the expected speed, and it may happen that the medals do not easily move from the fixed position of the rotating disk or do not easily fall from the rotating disk.

2. Configuration of Rotating Disc 2 Next, the rotating disc 2 that is characteristic of the present embodiment will be described in detail.
3A is a top view of the rotating disk 2, and FIG. 3B is a cross-sectional view taken along the line III-III of FIG. 3A. As shown in FIG. 3 (a), the rotating disk 2 has a projection surface provided with a number of substantially semispherical projections 24 on the upper surface thereof, and the projections 24 are densely arranged over the entire surface. It is installed. Further, ten obstacle portions 60 are arranged at equal intervals along the outer periphery on the upper surface of the rotating disk 2, and the obstacle portions 60 include a pin 61 and a rubber member 62 that is detachably attached to the pin 61. And formed from. Inside the ten obstacles 60, four metal pins 26 are arranged in a substantially square shape. The obstacle 60 and the pin 26 are in contact with the medal M sliding down on the rotary disk 2 and act to change the course of the medal M.

  Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 3B, the rotating disk 2 includes a transparent circular plate-shaped acrylic plate 2A having a protruding surface and a metal circular rotating base 2B, and the rotating base 2B. The acrylic plate 2A is overlaid on the upper surface of the substrate so that the projection surface is the upper surface. The acrylic plate 2A has a circular shape that is slightly larger than the rotating base 2B, and is detachably disposed at a position covering the entire upper surface of the rotating base 2B.

  A pin 61 and a pin 26 are planted on the upper surface of the rotating base 2B, and through holes 28 and 29 for penetrating the pin 61 and the pin 26 are formed in the acrylic plate 2A. The acrylic plate 2A is positioned and disposed on the rotary base 2B by penetrating the pins 61 and 26 implanted in the rotary base 2B into the through holes 28 and 29 of the acrylic plate 2A, and the acrylic plate 2A. Is prevented from being displaced in the left-right direction on the upper surface of the rotating base 2B.

  The obstacle 60 is formed by attaching a rubber member 62 to the pin 61 from above the acrylic plate 2A. That is, by attaching the rubber member 62 to the pin 61 so that the bottom surface of the rubber member 62 is in contact with the acrylic plate 2A, the acrylic plate 2A is pressed onto the rotating base 2B by ten rubber members 62 and fixedly supported. is doing.

  Next, each member will be described. 4A is a top view of the rotating base 2B, and FIG. 4B is a cross-sectional view taken along the line IV-IV in FIG. 4A. As shown in FIG. 4A, ten pins 61 are planted at equal intervals along the outer periphery on the upper surface of the rotating base 4B, and the four pins 26 are formed in a substantially square shape inside the pins 61. It is planted to form.

  As shown in FIG. 4B, the pin 61 and the pin 26 are implanted vertically upward with respect to the rotating base 2B, and the height thereof is at least equal to or greater than the thickness of the acrylic plate 2A. ing. That is, the pin 61 and the pin 26 are projected from the through holes 28 and 29 of the acrylic plate 2A so as to contact the medal M sliding down on the acrylic plate 2A. Further, a concave locking portion 61a is formed on the head of the pin 61, and acts to prevent the rubber member 62 from shifting or coming off. At the center of the back surface of the rotary base 2B, a connection portion 23 for connecting to a drive shaft of a rotary drive device (not shown) is formed protruding downward in the vertical direction with respect to the rotary disc 2B. As a result, the rotational driving force of the rotational driving device is transmitted through the connecting portion 23, and the rotational base 2B is rotationally driven.

  Next, the acrylic plate 2A will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 5A is a top view of the acrylic plate 2A, and FIG. 5B is a cross-sectional view taken along the line VV in FIG. 5A. As shown in FIG. 5A, on the upper surface of the acrylic plate 2A, a large number of substantially semispherical protrusions 24 are provided at a high density on the entire surface. That is, the acrylic plate 2 </ b> A comes into contact with the medal M at each vertex of the projecting portion 24, and the medal M slides down the apex surface connecting the apexes of the projecting portions 24. For this reason, a gap is generated between the board surface of the acrylic plate 2A and the surface of the medal M, and the medal M can be prevented from coming into close contact with the acrylic plate 2A.

  Further, since the acrylic plate 2A is in contact with the medal M at each apex of the protrusion 24, the friction coefficient of the acrylic plate 2A is small (that is, the vertical drag exerted on the medal M by the acrylic plate 2A is small), and the medal M is Smoothly slide down on the acrylic plate 2A. Furthermore, since the action force of rotation of the rotating disk 2 is exerted on the medal M with each vertex as an action point, the medal M slides down on the rotating disk 2 while changing the course at random under the influence of the rotating force. Furthermore, by forming the protrusion 24 in a substantially semi-spherical shape, the protrusion 24 and the medal M are in contact with each other on the spherical surface, and the protrusion 24 does not get caught on the side edge of the medal M, and the progress of the medal M is progressed. There is no interference.

  The acrylic plate 2 </ b> A is formed with a through hole 28 that is slightly larger than the diameter of the pin 61 for penetrating the pin 61 at substantially equal intervals along the outer periphery thereof. A ring-shaped recess 27 is formed around the through hole 28, and the outer diameter of the recess 27 is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the rubber member 62. Further, the bottom surface (concave surface) of the concave portion 27 is formed as a smooth surface so that the bottom surface of the rubber member 62 is brought into close contact with the concave portion 27. Accordingly, the pressing force of the rubber member 62 against the acrylic plate 2A is substantially uniformly related to the concave surface, and the acrylic plate 2A can be stably fixed on the rotary base 2B. Further, a through hole 29 for allowing the pin 26 to pass therethrough is formed slightly larger than the diameter of the pin 26 inside the through hole 28.

  As shown in FIG. 5B, the protrusion 24 is formed in a substantially semispherical shape that is convex in the vertical direction of the acrylic plate 2A, and the apex surface connecting the apexes is parallel to the acrylic plate 2A. It becomes a serious aspect. The recess 27 is formed of an outer peripheral wall perpendicular to the acrylic plate 2A and a smooth surface bottom parallel to the acrylic plate 2A. A through-hole perpendicular to the acrylic plate 2A is formed in the center of the recess 27. 27 is provided. Furthermore, four through holes 29 perpendicular to the acrylic plate 2A are provided at equal intervals along the circumferential direction from the center of the through hole 28.

  FIG. 6 is an enlarged view of a portion X surrounded by a one-dot chain line shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 6, the rubber member 62 is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape, and its head portion is formed in a slightly tapered shape. The fitting hole of the rubber member 62 is formed to be substantially the same as or slightly smaller than the diameter of the pin 61, and a convex locked portion 62 a is formed on the inner periphery at a position corresponding to the locking portion 61 a of the pin 61. Has been. That is, when the rubber member 62 is attached to the pin 61, the locked portion 61a formed on the head of the pin 61 and the locked portion 62a formed in the fitting hole of the rubber member 62 are engaged with each other, and the rubber The displacement and removal of the member 62 are prevented.

  The bottom surface of the rubber member 62 is in contact with the concave surface of the acrylic plate 2 </ b> A, and a part of the rubber member 62 is accommodated in the concave portion 27. That is, the rubber member 62 makes the bottom surface abut against the concave surface of the acrylic plate 2 </ b> A, thereby uniformly pressing the acrylic plate 2 </ b> A via the abutment surface and fixingly supporting the acrylic plate 2 </ b> A to the rotary base 2.

Further, by accommodating a part of the rubber member 62 in the recess 27, as shown in FIG. 6, the medal M that has slid down the apex surface connecting the apexes of the projections 24 of the acrylic plate 2A is inserted into the rubber member 62. It can be made to collide above the lower end of the side surface instead of the lower end of the side surface. Thereby, for example, even if the rubber member 62 is displaced upward and a gap is generated between the bottom surface of the rubber member 62 and the bottom surface of the recess 27, the medal M is sandwiched between the acrylic plate 2A and the rubber member 62. Can prevent the situation.
3. Action / Effect

  As described above, the rotating disk 2 according to the present embodiment is provided with a large number of protrusions 24 on the upper surface thereof, and the medal M slides down on the apex surface connecting the apexes of the protrusions 24, whereby the rotating disk 2 Since the medal M and the medal M are in contact with each other at a point, the medal M is not in close contact with the rotating disk 2, and it is possible to prevent the medal M from sticking to the rotating disk 2 and stopping the medal in the middle of sliding. Further, since the friction coefficient between the rotating disk 2 and the medal M is greatly reduced, the rotating disk 2 can be smoothly slid down. Furthermore, the rotational force of the rotating disk 2 acts on the medal M appropriately, and the course change of the medal M can be made random.

  As a result, when the medal M slides on the inclined rotating disk 2, the medal M is prevented from stopping during the sliding or being unable to easily fall from the rotating disk 2, and various course changes of the medal M are realized. can do. As a result, the sliding surface of the medal M can be formed with a gently inclined board surface, and the casing of the medal game apparatus 1 can be downsized in the height direction.

  Further, by forming the shape of the protruding portion 24 into a substantially semispherical shape, the medal M and each protruding portion 24 come into contact with each other on the spherical surface, and these apexes are not caught on the side edges of the medal M, and can be smoothly performed. It is possible to slide down on the rotating disk 2. Further, since the protrusion 24 has no corners, the medal M can smoothly transfer from the game board surface 3b to the rotary disk 2.

  The rotating disk 2 has a rotating base 2B and an acrylic plate 2A provided with a protrusion 24 on one side, and the acrylic plate 2A has a rotating base such that the surface provided with the protruding part 24 is an upper surface. 2B is detachably disposed. As a result, the acrylic plate 2A can be easily removed from the rotating base 2B, and the labor for maintenance can be saved. Further, when the protrusion 24 provided on the surface of the acrylic plate 2A is worn, it can be dealt with by replacing only the acrylic plate 2A, so that the maintenance cost can be reduced.

  A plurality of pins 61 and pins 26 are planted on the rotary base 2B, and a plurality of through holes 28 and 29 for penetrating the pins 61 and the pins 26 are formed in the acrylic plate 2A.

Further, the pin 61 and the pin 26 are locked by the through holes 28 and 29, thereby preventing the acrylic plate 2A from being displaced in the left-right direction on the upper surface of the rotary base 2B.

  Further, the pin 61 and the pin 26 are formed so as to protrude from the acrylic plate 2 </ b> A. A rubber member 62 is detachably attached to the pin 61, thereby forming an obstacle 60. Thereby, the obstacle 60 and the pin 26 come into contact with the medal M sliding down the apex surface connecting the apexes of the projections 24 of the acrylic plate 2A, and the path of the medal M according to the rotational drive of the rotary disk 2 Can be changed randomly.

  A concave portion 27 is formed around the through hole 28 of the acrylic plate 2A, and the bottom surface of the rubber member 62 is mounted in contact with the concave surface of the acrylic plate 2A. Thereby, the rubber member 62 can press the acrylic plate 2A uniformly through the contact surface, and can stably fix the acrylic plate 2A to the rotary base 2.

  Further, by allowing a part of the rubber member 62 to be accommodated in the recess 27, the medal M that has slid down the apex surface connecting the apexes of the protrusions 24 of the acrylic plate 2 </ b> A is located above the lower end of the side surface of the rubber member 62. Collide with position. Thereby, for example, even if the rubber member 62 is displaced upward and a gap is generated between the bottom surface of the rubber member 62 and the bottom surface of the recess 27, the medal M is sandwiched between the acrylic plate 2A and the rubber member 62. Can be prevented.

  A convex-shaped locked portion 62 a is provided on the inner periphery of the fitting hole of the rubber member 62, and a concave-shaped locking portion 61 a is provided on the head of the pin 61. When the member 62 is fitted, the locking portion 61a and the locked portion 62a are engaged, and the rubber member 62 can be fixed securely.

  Further, by attaching the rubber member 62 to the pin 61 to form the obstacle portion 60, the movement of the medal M is buffered when the medal M sliding down the apex surface of the acrylic plate 2A contacts the obstacle portion 60. And the behavior of the medal M such as jumping and turbulence can be alleviated.

4). Modifications The application of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be changed as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention. For example, although the case where the transparent acrylic plate 2A is used has been described in the present embodiment, it is not limited to the acrylic plate, and may be a synthetic resin plate, a metal plate, or the like. Further, the shape of the protrusion 24 is not limited to a semispherical shape as long as the friction coefficient can be suppressed to a certain level. For example, a triangular pyramid shape as shown in FIG. 7 may be used. Alternatively, other rectangular parallelepiped shapes, conical shapes, pyramid shapes, semi-cylindrical shapes, prismatic shapes, and the like may be used.

  Moreover, although the rotating disk 2 demonstrated the case where it was comprised by acrylic board 2A and the rotation base 2B, it is not limited to this structure.
