Accordingly, the portion to be destroyed by a tool or the like becomes extremely narrow, and it is not necessary to destroy the cover member 61 more than necessary in order to search for the screw N. Therefore, the cylinder unit 11 is closed with the gaming machine main body 1 closed. It is possible to simplify the replacement work when replacement is necessary. Moreover, since the destruction work with respect to the cover member 61 is simplified, for example, the part to be destroyed is narrowed, the possibility of damaging other parts such as the decorative part 9b of the front door 9 can be reduced.

  As mentioned above, although preferred embodiment of this invention was described referring an accompanying drawing, it cannot be overemphasized that this invention is not limited to this embodiment. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made within the scope of the claims, and these are naturally within the technical scope of the present invention. Is done.

  For example, in the above-described embodiment, the case has been described in which the facing portion X facing the front surface of the protruding piece 64 is provided on the front door 9, but the facing portion X does not necessarily have to be provided on the front door 9. Further, when the facing portion X can come into contact with the projecting piece 64 when the cover member 61 is removed from the base body 51 and the projecting piece 64 can be removed from the cover member 61, the entire front surface of the projecting piece 64 is opposed to the facing portion X. Or a part of the projecting piece 64 may be disposed to face the facing portion X.
