Description

  The present invention relates to a test driving operation handle assisting tool for test hitting a pachinko machine. Specifically, when adjusting the nailing gauge of the pachinko machine, the grounding technology with a special ground terminal is applied to the test handle operation handle that can provide stable operation of hitting the ball. The present invention relates to a test driving operation handle assisting tool having a grounding terminal corresponding to a change in the angle.

Conventionally, pachinko halls have installed hundreds of pachinko machines, and it is indispensable to adjust the nailing gauge when installing a new machine, regularly or irregularly, and manage the yield rate. . The adjustment operation of the nail gauge needs to be finished for hours for each unit.
When this is done manually, the work cost is very high, so the operation handle of the pachinko machine is automatically operated using a test handle operation handle assisting tool called a fixed handle stopper, and the management cost of the ball exit rate is controlled. It was necessary to lower.

However, according to the regulations, the operating handle must be pressed by a person in accordance with regulations related to customs business and laws related to optimizing business operations. In order to solve this problem, the handle can be automatically replaced by grounding (grounding) the handle. In the case of using an operation handle auxiliary tool for test driving, this has been solved by grounding it with a lead wire or the like. For example, when a magnetizable conductive material (metal part) such as iron or an iron alloy member is frequently used on the surface on the front side of the pachinko machine, these are usually connected by a ground terminal inside the machine.
For this reason, in the case of an instrument that requires grounding, such as an operation handle assisting tool for test driving, the problem has been solved by attracting a magnet having a ground wire tip attached to a magnetizable conductive material and grounding the pachinko machine.

Specifically, the following Patent Documents 1 and 2 are known.
In Patent Literature 1, according to the “testing operation handle assisting tool”, “the operation handle assisting tool,...,” “The ground wire 16 and the earth end 25 with magnet are connected to one hinge.” (Patent Literature 1 specification description 0022), “The ground wire 16 is taken and is grounded to the operation handle via the claw” (specification description 0015) is recognized.
Thus, it can be seen that the test handle operating handle assisting tool can be grounded by electrically grounding the magnet at the tip of the ground wire to the magnetizable pachinko base metal part.

According to Patent Document 2, according to the “test hitting aid for pachinko machines”, “the conductive gripping part is pushed in until the tip of the conductive gripping part comes into contact with the conductive part of the handle body, and the other magnet is attached to the pachinko machine. "Attach to the magnetic body part of the machine to ground" (Patent Document 1 Specification 0007), "On the other hand, the magnet 7 of the grounding lead wire 5 is attracted to the magnetic body part 51 of the pachinko machine 50 to ground. "(Description 0013) is recognized.
Thereby, it is recognized that the test hitting aid for pachinko machines can be grounded by attracting the magnet to the magnetic body portion of the pachinko machine and electrically grounding it.

  In Patent Document 3, according to the “test hitting aid for pachinko machines”, “... a conductive band B that binds a conductive handle and a lead wire 12 drawn from the band B and attached to the magnetic part of the pachinko machine. And a magnet 14 for adsorbing the suction part to the ... test hitting aid for pachinko machines "(patent document 3 specification description, first page, left column, utility model claim scope), and" In the present invention, the conductive band B is wound around the conductive handle 22 and the fixed insulation 21, and the magnet 14 attached to the lead wire 12 is joined to the magnetic iron plate 24 of the pachinko machine by adsorption, and is grounded. "(Description Description, page 2, right column, lines 1 to 4)" is recognized.

This document recognizes that the magnet 14 attached to the lead wire 12 can be grounded by adhering to the magnetic iron plate 24 of the pachinko machine and adsorbing the ground to the part 51.
Patent Document 4 states that “it consists of a fixed insulator and a rotatable conductive handle ... a conductive band B that binds the conductive handle, and a magnetic part of a pachinko machine that is attached to a lead wire 12 drawn from the band B. It is recognized that “a test hitting device for a pachinko machine composed of a magnet 14 adsorbed on” (patent document 4 specification description, first page, scope of claim for utility model).

However, recent parts on the front of the pachinko machine are made of non-magnetic materials such as aluminum and zinc, even metal parts, and the magnet is attracted to the magnetic body of the pachinko machine to provide grounding. I can't do that.
The test handle operating handle assisting tool disclosed in Patent Document 1 must be grounded. However, when the front surface of the pachinko machine is made of a non-magnetic material, there is a problem that the ground connection cannot be made. In such a case, the pachinko machine must be opened separately to connect the internal ground and the lead wire, and the problem has not been solved.
Even in Patent Documents 2, 3, and 4, there are problems similar to those of Patent Document 1.

As described above, there is a defect that such a patent document cannot be connected to the ground when the front surface is made of a non-magnetic material only by the technology for realizing the front surface grounding of the pachinko machine using the magnetic part attached to the ground wire.
The present invention has been made under such circumstances, and relates to an operation handle assisting tool for test driving provided with a ground terminal that can be easily and reliably connected to the ground of a pachinko machine.

  In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention provides a locking test key hole attached to the front surface of a pachinko machine in a conductive test hammering operation handle auxiliary tool used when adjusting a nail gauge of a pachinko machine. It is provided by a test driving operation handle assisting tool for a pachinko machine characterized by comprising a ground terminal made of a conductive material that can be inserted and electrically connected through a key hole.

  According to the present invention, the operation handle assisting tool for conductive test driving can be connected to the ground of the pachinko machine easily and surely with a minimum configuration while reducing the cost.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a basic shape of a test driving operation handle assisting tool equipped with a ground terminal of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a plan view of the ground terminal according to the first embodiment as an example of the test handle operating handle assisting device of the present invention. FIG. 3 is an explanatory view showing a state in which the ground terminal is inserted (connected) into the pachinko machine locking keyhole. FIG. 4 is a plan view of a ground terminal according to another embodiment 2 of the present invention.

Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an operation handle assisting tool for test driving according to the present invention.
The present invention can be applied to the test handle operating handle assisting tool 1 invented by the present applicant and the like and disclosed in Patent Document 1. The test driving operation handle assisting tool 1 of the present invention comprises a newly provided earth terminal 10.

  More specifically, the test driving operation handle assisting tool 1 made of a conductive material connects the two angle setting parts 11 and 12 by the hinge part 2 so that the angles of the hinges 8 and 9 can be changed. did. The claw 3 and claw 4 that hold the operation handle of the pachinko machine are fixed to the angle setting unit 11, the claw 5, and the claw 6 to the angle setting unit 12 at one end. The angle setting parts 11 and 12 are respectively arranged on the hinges 8 and 9 and are formed of a plurality of claws.

The hinges 8 and 9 are assembled with the hinge-shaped hinge portion 2 so as to be freely angled with respect to each other. The hinge part 2 has a sawtooth-like cut at the longitudinal ends of the two hinges, and the hinge ends are bent. This hinge part 2 was provided with spring pressure so that the hinges would be in the closing direction as shown in FIG.
Specifically, the angle between the two hinges needs to be a spring force from parallel to closing as shown in FIG. Since it can be held and regulated by the spring elasticity of the hinge portion and the claw, the spring can be applied to a circular or other deformation operation handle.

  The test handle operating handle assisting tool 1 has conductivity and uses two hinges, and they are made of SUS430 stainless steel with an angle to each other. The width is 15 mm, the length including the saw portion is 27.5 mm, The thickness was 1.0 mm. The claw was made of SUS301-CSP stainless steel and had a width of 15 mm, a development length of 90 mm, a radius of 35 mm when the stress was released, and a semicircle with a thickness of 0.8 mm.

  The number of claws is four in the embodiment, but is not limited to this. Multiple sheets, for example 6 to 8, are also possible. The bottom side of the claw, which is the lower side of the figure, may be deformed. For example, a corrugated and jagged shape may be provided on the side surface of the plate material. It is not necessary to be a metal if the ground can be taken at a position other than the claw.

  Here, the ground terminal of the present invention is defined below. As a material characteristic, the ground terminal is composed of a magnet and a conductive material excluding the magnet. Therefore, it is not the earth terminal which consists of the magnet described in the specification of patent documents 1 thru | or 4 mentioned above, and a magnet. Furthermore, it has the meaning of excluding the earth due to the magnet and the magnet adhering to the front surface of the pachinko machine.

Embodiment 1 of ground terminal
The ground terminal 10 of Embodiment 1 is demonstrated based on FIG. The present invention is a method devised because the method of attaching the ground terminal 10 has become very difficult recently. All pachinko machines (not shown) have locking locks attached to the front, and the locks and locking keyholes are made of a conductive material and are electrically connected to the ground. It is a method that was devised focusing on the fact that there is no such thing.

  The structure of the ground terminal 10 in FIG. 2 is formed of a single conductive round bar (diameter 1.2 mm). The keyhole insertion end 15 is a portion that enters the keyhole 19 for locking the lock of the pachinko machine. A ring 14 is provided in the middle of the ground terminal 10, and a finger can be easily inserted and removed from this ring. The round bar was connected to the test steering operation handle assisting tool main body 1 via the ground wire 7 attached to the ground wire connecting portion 13.

3A is a state diagram before the ground terminal 10 is inserted into the locking key hole 19 of the pachinko machine, and FIG. 3B is a state where the ground terminal 10 is inserted into the locking key hole 19 of the pachinko machine. It is explanatory drawing.
Only the bachinko base front surface 16, the lock 18 attached to the surface, and the locking keyhole 19 are shown, and the others are not shown. Further, as shown in FIG. 3A, the ground terminal 10 includes a keyhole insertion end 15, a ring 14 and a ground connection terminal 13, and the ground wire 7 is connected via the ground connection terminal 13 as shown in FIG. Is connected. In FIG. 3B, the ground terminal 10 has the ring 14 placed on the index finger, and the keyhole insertion end 15 is moved in the direction of the arrow 17 and inserted into the locking keyhole 19 of the lock.

  In the present invention, the following design values are used for the keyhole insertion end 15. When W2PE (lock) manufactured by OMRON Amusement Co., Ltd. is used as the lock 18 mounted on the front surface of the pachinko machine, a form that can be inserted in the same manner as the corresponding key (Company W2PB) is desirable. However, those having a tensile force that does not easily come off without rotating the key within the lock are suitable. The ground terminal 10 of the present invention employs the configuration shown in FIG. 2 and later-described FIG. 4, FIG. 5, and FIG. That is, as a general key operation, the lock cannot be rotated within the lock key (ie, it is not necessary to unlock the lock), and even if it does not rotate, it will fall off unless a large force is applied from the lock keyhole. Not set to an extent.

The material of the ground terminal 10 in FIG. 2 is a conductive material and requires a spring property at an acute angle portion at the tip, and SUS304WPB was selected. The keyhole insertion end 15 has an inner radius of 1.3 mm and a bending torque of 0.01 to 10 N · m, preferably 0.02 to 0.05 N · m.
In the first embodiment of the ground terminal 10 of the present invention, the length of the ground terminal 10 is about 72 mm, the tip inserted into the locking key hole, that is, the acute angle portion of the key hole insertion end 15 is about 28 mm, and the diameter of the ring 14 Was about 20 mm, and the angle of the acute angle portion at the tip was about 12 degrees.

  As a result of considering the set value in this way, the shape of the keyhole insertion end 15 is easy to insert into the locking keyhole 19, and after insertion, the angle (about 12 mm) is set so that the keyhole insertion end 15 stays in the locking keyhole 19 to some extent. As the ground terminal enters the locking key hole 19, the vertical direction becomes larger than the locking key hole 19, and pressure is applied in the locking key hole, so that it is difficult to remove. The range of tensile force required for drawing was 2N to 5N.

Embodiment 2 of ground terminal
FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the shape of the second embodiment.
Compared with Embodiment 1 of FIG. 2, the shape of the keyhole insertion end 20 was made substantially parallel to the horizontal direction. Thereby, compared with what was pointed to the left of what is called the figure of Embodiment 1, the feature that insertion / extraction (insertion / extraction) was easy was found.

Embodiment 3 of ground terminal
FIG. 5 is a diagram showing the shape of the third embodiment.
Compared with Embodiment 1 of FIG. 2, the shape of the keyhole insertion end 15 is a so-called bellows-like shape that swells substantially toward the tip in the horizontal direction, and is tapered in the form of triangular protrusions 22, 23, and 24. In addition to a triangle, a so-called sine waveform with a slight roundness may be used. The tip 21 of the keyhole insertion end was rounded as in FIGS. 2 and 3. The entire size of the keyhole insertion end 15 is substantially the same as that of the ground terminal 10 of FIG. Compared to the so-called pointed left side of the first embodiment of FIG. 2 in terms of form, it was found that a flexible expansion and contraction is possible on the left and right sides of the figure, and that it is difficult to fall off during use.

Embodiment 4 of ground terminal
6A and 6B are diagrams showing the shape of the fourth embodiment, where FIG. 6A is a plan view and FIG. 6B is a side view.
Compared to the first embodiment shown in FIG. 2, the keyhole insertion end employs a so-called key structure known in the market. The overall size of the keyhole insertion ends 26 to 28 is substantially the same as that of the ground terminal 10 of FIG.

  However, as a form of the keyhole insertion end, the horizontal tip part 26 of the keyhole insertion end and the undulated portions 27 and 28 are different from the normal keys. The vertical width of the corrugated portions 27 and 28 in FIG. 6 is substantially the same as the vertical width of the ground terminal in FIG. The ground wire 7 was connected to the ground connection end 25. Further, the slightly expanded portion 30 (right end in the figure) of the ground terminal 10 was connected to the terminal from the ground connection terminal at the connection end 29. Further, a ground wire was connected to the ground terminal 25. The ring 14 is unnecessary because it is a familiar key form as compared with the first embodiment shown in FIGS. 2, 4 and 5, and features such as manufacturing cost and ease of use such as strength have been found.

  Except for the above-mentioned embodiment 4, all used a ring 14, which is intended to make it easy to insert a finger into the ring 14 and to be inserted into and removed from the locking key hole 19, but is essential. is not. As for the shape, size, and material of the ground terminal 10, focusing on the locking keyhole 19 of various pachinko machines, the present inventors have made intensive studies, selected, dimensioned, and arranged position. It has been decided.

  4, 5, and 6 are shown as shapes of other embodiments of the grounding terminal 10, these are only examples, and the present invention grounds the grounding terminal 10 of the test handle operating handle assisting tool 1. There is no limitation as long as the surface is conductive, such as a conductive material. Further, as long as it can be inserted into the locking keyhole 19, a plate material form or a square material as shown in FIG. 6 can be used, and the shape can be changed.

  A method for adjusting the nail gauge using the test driving operation handle assisting tool of the present invention will be described. As a result, a large number of pachinko machines can be put together to manage the payout rate. First, the test driving operation handle assisting tool 1 is attached to the handle of the personal computer main body (not shown) via the claws 3 to 6. Further, the ground wire 7 and the keyhole insertion end 15 of the ground terminal 10 at the end thereof are conductively inserted from the operation handle auxiliary tool 1 into the lock keyhole 19 of the lock attached to the pachinko machine. As a result, the test steering operation handle assisting tool can be grounded.

  Next, a ring-shaped lever attached to a handle (not shown) is rotated together with the test-pitch operation handle auxiliary tool to turn on the switch of the motor circuit. As a result, the nail gauge for hitting the pachinko ball is adjusted. The ring-shaped lever is held at the adjusted position by the spring elasticity of the test striking operation handle assisting tool. As a result, test strikes are automatically and continuously executed in the same manner as when the handle is held by hand. The stop of the test hit state can be ended by removing the keyhole insertion end 15 from the locking keyhole 19.
