Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine in which a printed wiring board having an electrical component mounted on the back surface of a substantially frame-shaped front door having a window to which a see-through board is attached.

  Conventionally, a gaming machine such as a pachinko machine has an outer frame fixed to a gaming machine installation island, and can be opened and closed with respect to the outer frame as shown in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, for example. And a front frame-shaped front door having a window to which a see-through plate is attached, and the front door is openable to open and close with respect to the base frame with one end as an axis. The game area of the game board is visible from the outside through the window with the front door closed.

  By the way, such front doors are often provided with various electrical components such as a switch, a driving component, or a lamp for performing various effects for a player on the back surface thereof. These electrical components are mounted on the printed wiring board and then attached to the back surface of the front door via the printed wiring board.

  Further, such a front door is not limited to the one provided on the front door via a printed wiring board as in the above-described electrical parts, but directly, for example, without using a substrate such as a speaker or a microphone. Some appliances are attached to the machine.

  These electrical components and appliances are electrically connected to various control boards such as a power supply unit, a lamp unit, and a sound unit disposed on the back surface of the base frame through wire wiring, thereby controlling their operations. Will be.

  However, since such a front door has a substantially frame shape having a window to which a see-through plate is attached, its width and thickness are small, and a printed wiring board is further provided. The free space that can be used later was very small. It is very time-consuming to arrange an electric appliance in such a small space and accommodate the wire wiring of the electric appliance on the back surface of the front door. Therefore, when installing electrical appliances and printed wiring boards, the wire wiring is intertwined with each other, increasing the number of work steps, and when closing the front door, the wire wiring protruding from the front door is not connected to the base frame. There was also a risk of being pinched and damaged.

  In order to solve such a problem, for example, as shown in Patent Document 1, a storage rib having a shape along the outer periphery of the see-through plate is formed on the back surface of the front door, and the wire wiring extends from each electric appliance. It is conceivable to store them in a storage rib. According to such a method, the possibility that the plurality of wire wirings are entangled with each other can be reduced as compared with the case where the plurality of wire wirings are arranged without being constrained.

  However, in a small free space as described above, the operation of storing a plurality of wire wirings along the storage ribs is time-consuming and not always effective from the viewpoint of assembly man-hours. In addition, it becomes impossible to dispose the electric appliance in the portion where the storage rib is formed, and the degree of design freedom regarding the layout of the electric appliance on the back surface of the front door is reduced.

  Further, in Patent Document 2, a notch is provided on the hinged part side of the front door in the game board to form a predetermined space, and wire wiring extending from the front door to the back of the base frame is inserted into the notch. A method for facilitating the storage of wire wiring when closing the front door is disclosed. However, such wire wiring has a length that reaches the electrical appliance along the outer periphery of the see-through plate in the front door, and the amount of bending that occurs between the front door and the base frame is large. Thus, merely forming such a notch is still insufficient to effectively prevent pinching of the wire wiring having such a length.
