Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine, a gaming machine part, a gaming machine related part, and a manufacturing method of the gaming machine part.

  “Wooden game machine parts” are used in some of the game machines such as pachinko machines (ball ball game machines) and slot machines (rotating game machines). For example, in a pachinko machine, a pachinko machine body (game machine body) composed of a game board, a game control component, and the like is rotatably assembled to one side of a rectangular outer frame. In this pachinko machine, the outer frame and the game board correspond to “wooden game machine parts” (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

  Such “wooden gaming machine parts” are difficult to use for a long time (subsequent use) due to deterioration of durability due to deterioration over time and deformation due to moisture, and it is necessary to replace them with new ones. May be. In such a case, since it is necessary to create a new wooden gaming machine part (outer frame, gaming board, etc.), new wood will be used and the old "wooden gaming machine part" Will be discarded.

  In addition, when a gaming machine (pachinko machine, etc.) is used in a pachinko hall for a long time, the life of the main equipment (such as an accessory device, a control board, etc.) of this gaming machine comes, and the gaming machine (pachinko machine) Etc.) may need to be replaced with a new gaming machine. Furthermore, in the pachinko hall, the old model gaming machine is removed from the installation site (island facility), and the new model gaming machine is installed in the “installation site (island facility)” (so-called “new stand replacement”). is there.

  In these cases, when an old gaming machine (such as a pachinko machine) is removed from the pachinko hall installation site, the “part of gaming machine parts (resin The game machine parts) ”are reused (recycled and reused), but other game machine parts are discarded including the“ wooden game machine parts ”. Each time a new model is manufactured or sold, a “wooden gaming machine part” such as an outer frame or a game board is newly created, and a large amount of wood is used accordingly.

As described above, in conventional gaming machines (pachinko machines, etc.), wooden gaming machine parts (outer frame, gaming board, etc.) are exchanged, or the entire gaming machine (pachinko machine, etc.) is exchanged or replaced. In such a case, old gaming machine parts are not reused, which is not preferable from the viewpoint of environmental protection and resource protection. Therefore, the present inventors have stated that “the gaming machine parts (external frame, gaming board, etc.) that have been conventionally made of wood are made of a resin that can be easily recycled, so that the gaming machine It was possible to promote the reuse of parts (outer frame, game board, etc.).
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-15190

  However, if the “wooden gaming machine parts” are simply “resin gaming machine parts”, the following problems occur. In other words, it is difficult or impossible to drive a nail into the “resin gaming machine part” (for example, it is impossible because a resin gaming machine part is damaged). Generally, “resin gaming machine parts” are heavier than “wooden gaming machine parts”. For this reason, for example, when the outer frame and the game board are made of resin, the following problems occur.

  First, when fixing the outer frame to the installation site of the pachinko hall island facility, it is necessary to drive nails into the outer frame. However, when the outer frame is configured as a simple “resin part”, it is difficult to drive the nail into the outer frame, so that the workability of installing the gaming machine (pachinko machine) in the pachinko hall is eventually reduced. It may worsen or make this work impossible. In addition, if the outer frame is configured as a simple “resin part”, the weight of the outer frame increases, so this arrangement is required when changing the layout of the entire gaming machine (the gaming machine main body and the outer frame) in the pachinko hall. There is also a risk that the workability of the work for conversion will deteriorate.

  In addition, a large number of obstacle nails are usually placed on the board surface (front surface) of the game board. However, when the game board is configured as a mere “resin part”, it is difficult to drive the obstacle nail on the game board surface. There is a risk that the placement work may be impossible. In addition, when the game board is configured as a simple “resin part”, the weight of the game board increases, so that the workability of this work is deteriorated when the game board is detached from the game machine body. There is also a fear.

  The present invention has been made in order to solve such a problem, and its purpose is not to deteriorate the workability of the work performed on the gaming machine parts or to make the work impossible. It is an object of the present invention to provide a gaming machine that can increase the reuse rate of the entire gaming machine and thereby contribute to environmental protection and resource protection.

  Another object of the present invention is a gaming machine part that can be reused without deteriorating workability such as nailing or making the work impossible and thus contributing to environmental protection and resource protection. The purpose is to provide.

  Still another object of the present invention is to facilitate the reuse without deteriorating the workability of the work such as nailing or making the work impossible, and thus contribute to environmental protection and resource protection. The purpose is to provide related parts.

  Still another object of the present invention is to facilitate the reuse without deteriorating the workability of the work such as nailing or making the work impossible, and thus contribute to environmental protection and resource protection. It is an object of the present invention to provide a “game machine part manufacturing method” for obtaining parts.

The gaming machine according to claim 1 is:
A gaming machine configured using a plurality of gaming machine parts,
At least a part of the predetermined gaming machine part is provided with a wood foam resin molding portion composed of a wood foam resin molded product,
The wood foam resin molding part is a wood material configured by pulverizing used and wood-made gaming machine parts, and a resin material configured by pulverizing used and thermoplastic game machine parts, It is characterized by being formed by foam molding using component raw materials produced by mixing and kneading.

The gaming machine according to claim 2 is:
A gaming machine configured using a plurality of gaming machine parts,
At least a part of the predetermined gaming machine part is provided with a wood foam resin molding portion composed of a wood foam resin molded product,
The wood foam resin molding part is produced by mixing a wood material constituted by pulverizing wood gaming machine parts and a resin material constituted by pulverizing thermoplastic game machine parts. It is characterized in that it is formed by foam molding using the raw materials of parts.

  According to the gaming machine of each of the first and second aspects of the present invention, at least a part of the predetermined gaming machine part is provided with the wood foamed resin molded portion. The wood foamed resin molded part is composed of a wood material constituted by pulverizing wood gaming machine parts and a resin material constituted by pulverizing thermoplastic game machine parts. . Therefore, when molding this wood foam resin molding part, the used “wooden gaming machine parts” are reused (reused as raw materials), and the used “thermoplastic resin gaming machine parts” are reused. It can be used (recycled). Therefore, according to the gaming machine of each invention of claims 1 and 2, the reuse rate of the entire gaming machine can be increased, thereby contributing to environmental protection and resource protection. However, the invention of claim 2 is intended to use not only used “game machine parts” but also game machine parts before use (defective product, excess inventory product, etc.). This is the same in the inventions of claims 3 to 10.

  Further, in the gaming machines according to the first and second aspects of the present invention, since the wooden foamed resin molded portion is a foamed molded product having bubbles, the wooden foamed resin molded portion has “nails (fixing nails or obstacles). It is easy to drive a nail or the like. In addition, the wood foamed resin molded part is lightened by the amount of air bubbles, so that the weight of the gaming machine parts can be reduced. Therefore, according to the gaming machine of the first and second aspects of the invention, the work to be performed on the parts of the gaming machine (for example, the fixing work to the island facility, the driving work of the obstacle nail, the transporting work in the pachinko hall, the pachinko machine from the gaming machine manufacturer) The workability of the transfer operation to the hall, the collection operation of the used gaming machine, the assembly operation to other gaming machine parts, etc.) is not deteriorated.

  Furthermore, in each invention of Claim 1 and 2, it is set as the structure provided with the wood foaming resin molding part in the "game machine component" conventionally made into "wooden". In other words, by including a wood material as a constituent raw material, while maintaining the “feel” of wood, the thermoplastic resin is included in the constituent raw material, thereby improving the durability of gaming machine parts (in contrast to conventional wooden gaming machine parts) (Improvement of durability compared to the above) can be achieved, and it is difficult for deformation due to aging and use environment to occur. Furthermore, if the wood foam resin molding part is the same molding part (the same gaming machine part or a part of the same gaming machine part) and is reused (recycled), separation work, etc. Is no longer necessary. Therefore, it is easy to reuse this again.

  Here, in the present specification, “wooden gaming machine parts” include (1) “outer frame (pachinko machine)” and “outer frame ( (See the invention of claim 6) "and (2) a game board (see invention of claim 7) constituting a pachinko machine (ball game machine). Further, examples of the “game machine parts made of thermoplastic resin” include a middle frame, a front frame, a case for game control parts, and the like.

  The “component raw material” of each of the first and second aspects of the present invention is simply mixing a pulverized product (wood material) of a wood-made gaming machine part and a pulverized product (resin material) of a thermoplastic machine-made gaming machine part. (However, in Claim 1, they are mixed and kneaded.) The produced component raw material may be used, but it may be a granulated product. That is, a pulverized product (wood material) of wood gaming machine parts and a pulverized product (resin material) of thermoplastic machine parts (mixed and kneaded in claim 1). Further, it may be a component raw material produced by further granulation. In the invention of claim 1, “foam molding” may be performed by adding a foaming agent to the component raw material, or may be performed while injecting air or carbon dioxide gas. However, in the inventions of claims 2, 3, and 5 to 11, when producing the “component raw material”, a pulverized product (wood material) of a wood-made gaming machine part and a thermoplastic resin gaming machine It is not excluded to mix and knead the pulverized parts (resin material) of the parts.

  In addition, in each invention of Claim 1 and 2, the wood material comprised by grind | pulverizing the game machine parts made from wood, and the resin material comprised by grinding the game machine parts made from a thermoplastic resin are small pieces. (For example, a chip shape) or a powder shape. Moreover, in the invention of each claim, in order to improve the quality of the wood foamed resin molded part, the raw material for the component is an unused material (virgin wood material constituted by pulverizing unused wood, These thermoplastic resins (virgin thermoplastic resins) may be mixed.

  Here, as the “thermoplastic resin” of the invention of each claim, PC (polycarbonate), ABS resin, PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), PVC (polyvinyl chloride), PMMA (polyvinyl acetate), PET (Polyethylene terephthalate), PA (polyamide), POM (polyoxymethylene), PSU (polysulfone), PPS (polyphenylene sulfide), PI (polyimide), fluororesin and the like can be exemplified.

  And in invention of each claim, among these "thermoplastic resins", ABS resin or PC can be used especially suitably. This is because the lid, the ABS resin, and the PC are widely used as constituent materials of the gaming machine parts. However, in the invention of each claim, when producing a wooden foamed resin molded product, it is possible to select which one of ABS resin and PC is used, for example, as follows. In other words, it is desirable to use ABS for gaming machine parts that prioritize hardness and strength. On the other hand, it is desirable to use a PC for a gaming machine part that prioritizes “operability such as nailing operation”. Furthermore, it is desirable to use a PC when the wooden foamed resin molded part directly touches the player's eyes. This is because the gaming machine parts that use the ABS are usually colored, and therefore, when using recycled ABS products, it may be necessary to consider the color.

  In the invention of each claim, various blending ratios of the wood material and the resin material can be selected. In particular, when the combined use weight of the wood material and the use weight of the resin material is 100 parts by weight, the use weight of the wood material may be any one of “40 to 80 parts by weight”. Desirably, any one of “55 parts by weight to 65 parts by weight” is more desirable, and any one of “58 parts by weight to 62 parts by weight” is even more desirable. If the weight of the wood material used is less than 40 parts by weight, the hardness and strength of the wood foam resin molded product may become too high, and it may be difficult to perform a nailing operation on the wood foam resin molded product. is there. On the other hand, if the use weight of the wood material exceeds 80 parts by weight, the hardness and strength of the wood foam resin molded product may be insufficient.

  Specific methods of “foam molding” of the invention of each claim (excluding the invention of claim 8) include extrusion molding and injection molding. In addition, as the “foaming agent” used in this “foam molding”, (1) an organic foaming agent such as ADCA foaming agent (azodicarbonamide), DPT foaming agent (dinitrosopentamethylenetetramine), OBSH foaming agent, (2) An inorganic foaming agent or the like can be used. However, it is desirable to use an organic foaming agent for the convenience of recycling the wood foamed resin molded part again. Since the wood material and the resin material are organic materials, the wood foam resin molded part can be reused more efficiently if an organic material is used as the foaming agent. is there.

(B) A mode in which foam molding is directly performed using a wood material and a resin material (without producing the “component raw material” of the invention of claim 2) is also included.

  Also in the gaming machine according to the fourth aspect of the present invention, the wooden foamed resin molded part is a foamed molded product having air bubbles. Therefore, it is easy to drive a “nail” into the wooden foamed resin molded part. The weight of parts can be reduced. Therefore, even with the gaming machine of the invention of claim 4, work to be performed on the gaming machine parts (transportation work from the gaming machine manufacturer to the pachinko hall, collection work of the used gaming machine, assembly work to other gaming machine parts, etc. ) Workability is not deteriorated. In addition, by configuring the “gaming machine part” with a wood foamed resin molded portion, it is possible to improve the durability of the gaming machine part, and it is difficult for deterioration due to aging and use environment to occur. . Furthermore, when the wood foamed resin molded part is the same molded part (the same gaming machine part or a part of the same gaming machine part) and is reused again, a sorting operation or the like becomes unnecessary. Therefore, it is easy to reuse this again.

  In the invention of claim 4 as well, when the wood material is made of wood material obtained by pulverizing wood gaming machine parts, the used “wood gaming machine parts” can be reused (reused).

The gaming machine according to claim 6 is the gaming machine according to any one of claims 1 to 5,
An outer frame that is installed at a place where the gaming machine is installed, and a gaming machine body that is mounted on the outer frame;
The wood foamed resin molded part is provided in at least a part of the outer frame.

  The invention of claim 6 shows a specific example of the invention of claims 1 to 5. Here, the outer frame is usually fixed to the installation site of the island facility using nails. Further, a gaming machine main body is rotatably mounted on one side of the outer frame. The outer frame is generally configured by combining a top plate, a left side plate (viewed from the player), a right side plate (viewed from the player), and a bottom plate in a substantially rectangular shape. . In addition, when fixing an outer frame to the installation site | part of an island installation, a nail is usually driven into a top plate and a bottom plate.

  This outer frame is usually rearranged frequently in pachinko halls. In other words, in pachinko halls, the placement of gaming machines is frequently performed when new models are introduced. However, the outer frame has a mounting bracket (mounting bracket for fixing the gaming machine main body) unique to each gaming machine manufacturer. Therefore, the same outer frame cannot be used universally as an outer frame for fixing game machine bodies of different manufacturers. Therefore, it is necessary to rearrange the gaming machine main body together with the outer frame.

  However, the conventional outer frame (outer frame made of only wood) is heavy, which increases the burden on the person who moves to a new location of the gaming machine. In addition, each time the outer frame is rearranged, the nail that has been driven in the old installation location is removed from the top plate and the bottom plate, and the nail is driven again into the top plate and the bottom plate in the new installation location. is required. In response to frequent “rearrangement” of the outer frame, the top plate and the bottom plate are frequently driven into the nail, and the top plate and the bottom plate may be damaged. For this reason, the outer frame is generally changed frequently.

  On the other hand, the invention of claim 6 is made in consideration of such characteristics of the outer frame. That is, in the invention of claim 6, since the wood foamed resin molded portion is provided in the outer frame to reduce its weight, the workability of the “rearrangement” work of the outer frame is improved. In addition, when the outer frame is damaged and the outer frame is replaced, the outer frame in use may be used as a new outer frame material. it can.

  In the invention of claim 6, the entire outer frame may be composed of a wood foamed resin molded portion, or only a specific plate constituting the outer frame, or only a part of the specific plate is a wood foamed resin molded portion. You may comprise. That is, (1) A mode in which the top plate, the bottom plate, the left side plate, and the right side plate are configured by the wood foam resin molding portion, (2) the top plate and the bottom plate are configured by the wood foam resin molding portion, Examples include an aspect in which the side plate is made of wood or resin, (3) an aspect in which the top plate and the bottom plate are made of wood, and the left and right side plates are made of a wood foamed resin molded portion.

  The aspect (1) (the aspect in which the entire outer frame is formed of a wood foamed resin molded portion) is particularly preferable for reducing the weight of the outer frame. Moreover, in the aspect of (2), since a top plate and a baseplate are comprised with the "woody foaming resin molding part" which is easy to drive in a nail, workability | operativity at the time of fixing an outer frame to the installation site | part of an island installation is securable. Furthermore, in the aspect of (3), since the top plate and the bottom plate are made of wood that can be driven into a nail, the left and right side plates are made of lightweight wooden foamed resin molded parts. Can be achieved.

The gaming machine according to claim 7 is the gaming machine according to any one of claims 1 to 6,
An outer frame that is installed at a place where the gaming machine is installed, and a gaming machine body that is mounted on the outer frame and includes a gaming board;
At least a part of the game board is provided with the wood foamed resin molded portion.

  The invention of claim 7 shows a specific example of the invention of claims 1 to 6. Here, the game board has a front surface portion as a game board surface and a back surface portion as an installation portion such as a control board. Then, an obstacle nail is driven into the game board surface.

  This game board is usually exchanged frequently (so-called “face change”) in a pachinko hall. However, since a general game board (a game board composed simply of wood) is heavy, the burden on the person who performs the game board replacement work is increased. On the other hand, the invention of claim 7 is made in consideration of such characteristics of the game board. That is, according to the seventh aspect of the present invention, since the wood foamed resin molded portion is provided on the game board to reduce the weight thereof, the workability of the “replacement” work of the game board is improved.

  In the invention of claim 7, (A) the whole game board may be constituted by the wood foam resin molding part, but only a part of the game board may be constituted by the wood foam resin molding part. For example, when the game board is configured by bonding a plurality of plates, only a predetermined plate selected from the plurality of plates may be configured by the wood foamed resin molded portion. In other words, the game board includes a front plate portion constituting the front surface portion, a back plate portion constituting the back surface portion, and a middle plate portion arranged between the front plate portion and the back plate portion (a plurality of middle plate portions exist). (B) A mode in which only the front plate part is constituted by a wood foam resin molding part and the other part is constituted by wood, and (C) the back side. A mode in which only the board part is made of a wood foam resin molding part and the other parts are made of wood. (D) The front board part and the back board part are made of a wood foam resin molding part, and the middle board part is made of wood. (E) A mode in which the middle plate part is made of a wood foam resin molding part and the other part is made of wood (when there are a plurality of middle plate parts, at least one middle plate part is made of a wood foam resin molding) The aspect comprised by a part) etc. can be illustrated.

  And the game board of any aspect of (A)-(E) becomes light in weight compared with the conventional product which comprises the whole game board with wood, and is easy to handle. In particular, in the aspects of (A) and (B), the entire board (including the front panel part) is made of wood because the front board part of the game board is composed of a wood foamed resin molded part having a lower hardness than wood. Compared with the conventional product comprised by this, the effect that the driving | operation operation | work of an obstruction nail becomes easy can also be acquired. In addition, in the aspect (B), the back plate portion is made of wood to ensure the rigidity of the back side of the game board. For this reason, even if a large number of heavy gaming machine parts (control boards) are mounted on the back side (back plate portion) of the gaming board, unnecessary deformation of the gaming board does not occur.

The gaming machine according to claim 8 is:
A gaming machine comprising an outer frame and a gaming machine main body mounted on the outer frame and provided with a game board,
The game board includes a front plate portion constituting the front surface portion side, a back plate portion constituting the back surface portion side, and at least one middle plate portion disposed between the front plate portion and the back plate portion. It is equipped with a game board body constructed by laminating together,
The front plate portion is made of wood, and at least the middle plate portion of the middle plate portion and the back plate portion is provided with a wood resin molded portion made of a wood resin molded product,
The wood resin molding part was generated by mixing a wood material constituted by pulverizing wood gaming machine parts and a resin material constituted by pulverizing thermoplastic game machine parts. It is characterized by being formed by foam molding using component raw materials.

  The invention of claim 8 is different from the invention {particularly, aspect (E)} of claim 7 in that a wood resin molded portion is provided instead of the wood foam resin molded portion. That is, it differs from the invention of claim 7 in that it includes a “woody resin molding portion” that is molded without foaming while using a component raw material generated using a wood material and a resin material.

  In the invention of claim 8, a wood resin molding part is provided in a part of the game board (intermediate part along the thickness direction). This wood resin molding part is composed of a wood material constituted by pulverizing "wooden gaming machine parts" and a resin material constituted by pulverizing "thermoplastic game machine parts" Use as raw material. Therefore, when molding this wood resin molding part, it is possible to reuse used “wooden gaming machine parts” and reuse used “thermoplastic resin gaming machine parts”. . Therefore, according to the invention of claim 8, it is possible to increase the reuse rate of the entire gaming machine, thereby contributing to environmental protection and resource protection.

  Further, in the gaming machine of the invention of claim 8, since the core material (middle plate part) of the game board is constituted by the “woody resin molding part” having higher hardness and rigidity than wood, the overall rigidity of the game board is high. Become. Moreover, since the front plate portion is made of wood, the workability of the operation of driving the obstacle nail into the game board according to the present invention is as compared to the conventional game board (game board made entirely of wood).

(2) Manufacturing method of “woody foam resin molded product”

  Next, with reference to FIG. 12 and FIG. 13, manufacture of each plate portion (top plate portion 25, bottom plate portion 26, left side plate portion 27, right side plate portion 28, front plate portion 22) constituting the outer frame 2. The process will be described. As shown in FIG. 12, each plate portion constituting the outer frame 2 is performed according to the following steps in the order of division by a plurality of contractors. However, the manufacturing process shown below is performed while performing the first recycling on a predetermined “used game machine” (hereinafter referred to as “old game machine”).

a. Recovery process (S10)
A collection company or a transport company entrusted by a collection company collects “old game machines” from pachinko halls. Then, the collection company transports the “old game machine” to the intermediate processing company.

b. Decomposition, separation process (S20) and crushing process (S30, 335)
The intermediate processing company disassembles the “old game machine” that has been carried in for each game machine part under its own, and further sorts each game machine part by its material (“Invention of Claim 11”). Specific example of “sorting step”). Then, the gaming machine parts to be recycled are crushed for each material. That is, only gaming machine parts made of a specific thermoplastic resin (for example, ABS or PC) are collected and crushed by a crushing device to produce a crushed thermoplastic resin (S30; “resin” of the invention of claim 11). This is a specific example of the “grinding step”.) Then, unnecessary materials such as metals are removed from the crushed thermoplastic resin (S33). The crushed material made of thermoplastic resin constitutes a specific example of the resin material.

  Separately from the crushing of the thermoplastic resin gaming machine parts, only the wooden gaming machine parts (outer frame 2, game board main body 10A) are collected and crushed by a crushing device to produce a wooden crushed material (S35). A specific example of the “resin crushing step” of the invention of claim 11). Then, unnecessary materials such as metal are removed from the crushed wood (S38). The wooden crushed material constitutes a specific example of “woody material”.

c. Blending step (S40), granulation step (S50), molding step (S60)
The wooden crushed material and the thermoplastic resin crushed material are transported to the former by the transporter. The crushed wooden product and the crushed thermoplastic resin are blended at a predetermined blending ratio (the blending ratio of 40 parts by weight of the thermoplastic crushed material with respect to 60 parts by weight of the crushed wooden product) (S40). ). Furthermore, the blend of the crushed wood and the crushed thermoplastic resin is melted and further kneaded. Then, the kneaded compound is granulated (S50), thereby obtaining a “component raw material” in which the wood material and the resin material are substantially evenly mixed and the particle diameters are substantially equalized. This is a specific example of the “component raw material generation step”.).

  Furthermore, this “component raw material” is charged into a hopper of an extrusion molding machine together with a foaming agent (ADCA foaming agent), a foaming aid, and the like. These inputs are kneaded while melting in the extruder (in the barrel). The “component raw material” is extruded by a screw of an extrusion molding machine while foaming. As a result, the “component raw material” becomes a wooden foamed resin molded product (P) (which is a specific example of the “foam molding step” of the invention of claim 11), and the “molding die” provided in the extrusion molding machine. ”And is extruded out of the extruder while being a plate material having a predetermined thickness (S60). In addition, this board | plate material comprises the specific example of the "woody foaming resin molding part" of invention of Claim 1.

  In the present embodiment, prior to the foam molding process (prior to the use of the extrusion molding machine), the wood material and the resin material are blended to exemplify the aspect of constituting the “component raw material”. However, in the invention of claim 1 and the like, after starting the foam molding process (during use of the extrusion molding machine), the “component raw material” may be configured. For example, the “component raw material” may be configured by kneading the wood material and the resin material in a molten state in the extruder (in the barrel). However, as in the present embodiment, prior to the foam molding step, the “component raw material” is configured and the quality of the produced “woody foamed resin molded part” is increased according to the form of granulation. In other words, since the powdery material of the wood material and the powdery material of the resin material are mixed substantially uniformly with the particle sizes being substantially uniform, the quality of the “woody foamed resin molded part” is substantially uniform throughout. Because it becomes.

  In addition, in order to raise the added value with respect to the board material comprised in this way, you may surface-treat. For example, you may give the board | plate material the external appearance like a normal wood by shaving the slight part of the surface side of a board | plate material with an automatic plane board.

d. Parts manufacturing process (S70)
The plate material is transported to a parts manufacturer (manufacturer of gaming machine parts) by a transporter. Then, the component manufacturer processes the plate material to form each plate portion constituting the outer frame 2 (top plate portion 25, bottom plate portion 26, left side plate portion 27, right side plate portion 28, front plate portion 22). Is made. And each board part is assembled | attached and the outer frame 2 is produced (S70). In the following description, the outer frame 2 is referred to as a recycled outer frame 2.

  When the game board 10 is manufactured, the plate member 10g is configured using the “plate material” produced by the above-described extrusion molding machine. And, on the front side of the plate member 10g, “plate members (10a to 10f) constituting the front side portion of the game board main body 10A” are stacked and disposed on the back side of the plate member 10g. The plate members (10p to 10u) constituting the rear side portion of 10A are stacked. And if this laminate is finished, the game board body 10A is completed.

e. Assembly process (S80)
The recycling outer frame 2 is transported by a transporter to the manufacturer of the gaming machine. Then, the manufacturer of the gaming machine attaches the gaming machine main body H to the recycling outer frame 2 to produce the gaming machine 1 (S80). In the following description, this gaming machine 1 is referred to as “recycled gaming machine 1”.

  The “recycle game machine 1” configured as described above is transported to a predetermined pachinko hall by a transporter. In the present embodiment, an example in which the entire “old game machine” is collected in the collecting step (S10) is illustrated. However, in this collecting step (S10), specific gaming machine parts (particularly, the outer frame 2) Only may be recovered.

  Further, when the recycling outer frame 2 itself is recycled after the recycling outer frame 2 has been used for a predetermined period, the above-described “sorting step” becomes unnecessary. For this reason, more efficient recycling can be performed.

(3) Effects of Example 1

  According to the gaming machine 1 of the present embodiment, the entire outer frame 2 and a part of the game board 10 are provided with a wooden foamed resin molded part (woody foamed resin molded product P). The wood foamed resin molded part (woody foam resin molded product P) includes a wood material constituted by pulverizing a “wood gaming machine part” such as the outer frame 2 and a thermoplastic machine gaming machine part. A resin material constituted by pulverizing is used as a constituent raw material. For this reason, when molding this wood foam resin molded part (wood foam resin molded product P), the used “wooden gaming machine parts” are reused and the used “plastic machine gaming machine parts” Can be reused. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, the reuse rate of the entire gaming machine 1 can be increased, thereby contributing to environmental protection and resource protection.

  Moreover, in the gaming machine 1 of the present embodiment, the wood foamed resin molded part (woody foamed resin molded product P) is a foamed molded product provided with the bubbles R, and therefore this wood foamed resin molded part (woody foamed resin molded product). It is easy to drive a “nail (fixing nail, obstacle nail, etc.)” into P). Moreover, since the wood foamed resin molded part (woody foam resin molded product P) is lightened by the amount of air bubbles R, the weight of the outer frame 2 and the game board 10 can be reduced. Therefore, according to the gaming machine 1 of the present embodiment, work performed on the outer frame 2 and the game board 10 (for example, fixing work to the island facility S, driving work of the obstacle nail 23, transport work in the pachinko hall, gaming machine The workability of the manufacturer from the manufacturer to the pachinko hall, the collection of the used gaming machine 1, the assembly to other gaming machine parts, etc.) is not deteriorated.

  Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the outer frame 2 and the game board 10 that are conventionally “wooden” are configured to include a wood foam resin molding portion (wood foam resin molding P). In other words, by including a wood material as a constituent raw material, while maintaining the “feel” of wood, the thermoplastic resin is included in the constituent raw material, thereby improving the durability of gaming machine parts (in contrast to conventional wooden gaming machine parts) (Improvement of durability compared to the above) can be achieved, and it is difficult for deformation due to aging and use environment to occur. Furthermore, when the wooden foamed resin molded part (woody foamed resin molded product P) is the same molded part (same gaming machine part or part of the same gaming machine part) and is reused again, Sorting work is unnecessary. Therefore, it is easy to reuse this again.

  Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and is not limited to the wording of each claim without departing from the scope described in each claim. Can be easily replaced by these, and improvements based on knowledge that a person skilled in the art normally has can be added as appropriate. That is, in this embodiment, extrusion molding is used when molding the wood resin foam molded product P, but the molding method of the wood resin foam molded product P is not particularly limited. For example, other molding methods such as injection molding may be used.

  In the present embodiment, all the plate portions (top plate portion 25, bottom plate portion 26, left side plate portion 27, right side plate portion 28, front plate portion 22) constituting the outer frame 2 are replaced with a wood foamed resin molded product P ( However, some of these whole plate portions may be used as the wood foam resin molded product P (wood foam resin molding portion). Further, only a part of each plate portion (top plate portion 25, bottom plate portion 26, left side plate portion 27, right side plate portion 28, front plate portion 22) constituting the outer frame 2 is molded with a wood foam resin. It may be a product P (woody foamed resin molded part).

  Further, the recycling of the outer frame 2 may be performed for each plate (top plate 25, bottom plate 26, left side plate 27, right side plate 28, front plate 22). For example, among all the plate portions (top plate portion 25, bottom plate portion 26, left side plate portion 27, right side plate portion 28, front plate portion 22) constituting the outer frame 2, the top plate portion 25 and the bottom plate portion 26 are included. May be the target of recycling.

  Further, in this embodiment, among the wooden board members (10a to 10f, 10g, 10p to 10u) constituting the game board main body 10A, only the board member 10g located at the center is designated as “woody foamed resin molded product P”. However, the specific aspect of the invention of claim 6 is not limited to this. For example, as shown in Modification 1 of FIG. 14A, among the wooden board members constituting the game board main body 10A, the one (10a) located on the front side of the game board main body 10A is designated as “wood foaming”. The plate member (10h, 10i, 10j, 10p to 10u) that is configured by the “resin-molded product P” and configures other portions may be configured by wood (plywood or the like). According to this aspect, a wide area on the surface side of the game board main body 10A (a wide area along the thickness direction of the game board main body 10A) is constituted by the “woody foamed resin molded product P”. The operation of driving the game board 10 into the game board 10 becomes even easier.

  Further, as shown in the modified example 2 of FIG. 14B, among the wooden board members constituting the game board main body 10A, those located on the rear side of the game board main body 10A (10u) are designated as “wood foaming”. The plate members (10a to 10f, 10h, 10i, and 10j) that are configured by the “resin-molded product P” and other portions may be configured from wood (plywood or the like). According to this aspect, since a wide area on the surface side of the game board main body 10A (a wide area along the thickness direction of the game board main body 10A) is composed of the “woody foamed resin molded product P”, the game board main body Further weight reduction of 10A (game board 10) can be achieved.

  Further, as a specific example of the invention of claim 7, a game board main body 10B shown in FIG. 15 can be exemplified. This game board main body 10B is also configured by laminating wooden board members (100a, 100b, 100c, 100d, 100e, 100f, 100g, 100p, 100q, 100r, 100s, 100t, and 100u) in a laminated form. . That is, the game board main body 10B includes a plate member (100a to 100f) constituting the front side portion, a plate member (100p to 100u) constituting the rear side portion, and a plate member disposed between the two. 100g.

  Also in this game board main body 10B, only the plate member 100g located in the center along the thickness direction of the game board main body 10B is constituted by the “woody resin molded product W”, and the other plate members (100a to 100f, 100p). ~ 100u) is made of wood (eg, veneer).

  This “woody resin molded product” is different from the above-mentioned “woody foamed resin molded product” in the following points. That is, even when manufacturing this “woody resin molded product”, the “recovery step (S10)”, “decomposition and separation step (S20)”, “crushing step (S30)”, and “compounding step” (S40) "and" granulation step (S50) "are executed. However, in the “molding step (S60)”, the foaming agent (ADCA foaming agent) and the foaming aid are not added to the “hopper of the extrusion molding machine”. For this reason, the “woody resin molded product” is produced as a molded product that does not cause foaming (no bubbles). The “part manufacturing process (S70)” and the “assembly process (S80)” are executed in the same manner as in the embodiment.

  According to the specific example of the invention of claim 7, a part of the game board 10 (intermediate part along the thickness direction) is provided with the wood resin molding part. And this wood resin molding part uses as a constituent raw material the wood material comprised by grind | pulverizing the game machine parts made from wood, and the resin material comprised by grinding the game machine parts made from a thermoplastic resin. For this reason, when molding this wood resin molding part, it is possible to reuse used “wooden gaming machine parts” and reuse used “thermoplastic resin gaming machine parts”. . Therefore, according to the invention of claim 7, it is possible to increase the reuse rate of the entire gaming machine, thereby contributing to environmental protection and resource protection.

  Further, since the core material (middle plate portion 100c) of the game board 10 is constituted by the “woody resin molding part” having higher hardness and rigidity than wood, the overall rigidity of the game board 10 is increased. Moreover, since the front plate portion 100a is made of wood, the workability of the operation of driving the obstacle nail into the game board 10 is an obstacle to the conventional game board (a game board made entirely of wood). There is no difference from the workability of the work of driving the nail 23. That is, according to this specific example, the overall rigidity of the game board 10 is increased without impairing the workability of the work of driving the obstacle nail into the game board 10. For this reason, it is possible to improve the durability of the game board 10, and it is difficult for the game board 10 to be deteriorated over time or to be deformed due to the use environment.

  In addition, although illustration is abbreviate | omitted, the following can be illustrated as a specific example of the gaming machine related components of the invention of claim 5. That is, the specific example which comprised the upper board part S2 for fixation which comprises the island installation S, and the lower board part S3 for fixation with the "wooden foamed resin molded product P" of a present Example can be illustrated.
