Description

本発明は、遊技領域に向けて遊技球を打ち込み、遊技領域において打ち込まれた遊技球を転動流下させることで遊技を行う遊技機に関する。
The present invention relates to a gaming machine that plays a game by driving a game ball toward the game area and rolling down the game ball that is driven in the game area.

遊技領域に向けて遊技球を打ち込み、遊技領域において打ち込まれた遊技球を転動流下させることで遊技を行う遊技機（例えば、所謂パチンコ機）が広く知られている。このような遊技機の遊技盤には、入賞口（始動口や大入賞口や普通入賞口等）への遊技球の入賞を検出する入賞検出センサや、遊技盤に対する不正な遊技行為を検出するためのセンサ（例えば、振動検出センサや磁気検出センサ）などの検出センサが多数配設されている（例えば、特許文献１）。
遊技機では、検出センサは遊技領域内の複数箇所（例えば、始動口、入賞口、大入賞口、アウト口等の近傍にそれぞれ配置させる）を設置対象とする事情がある。そのため、検出センサと検出センサからの検出信号を検出する検出回路部（例えば、パネル中継基板のトランジスタ等）との電気的接続にはコネクタ部材を用いて接続することが一般的に行われている。
2. Description of the Related Art A gaming machine (for example, a so-called pachinko machine) that plays a game by driving a game ball toward the game area and rolling down the game ball that is driven in the game area is widely known. The gaming board of such a gaming machine detects a winning detection sensor that detects a winning of a game ball at a winning opening (a start opening, a large winning opening, a normal winning opening, etc.), and an illegal gaming act on the gaming board. Many detection sensors such as sensors (for example, vibration detection sensors and magnetic detection sensors) are provided (for example, Patent Document 1) .
In gaming machines, there are circumstances where the detection sensors are installed at a plurality of locations in the game area (for example, arranged in the vicinity of a start opening, a winning opening, a big winning opening, an out opening, etc.). For this reason, a connector member is generally used for electrical connection between a detection sensor and a detection circuit unit (for example, a transistor on a panel relay board) that detects a detection signal from the detection sensor. .
