1. First Embodiment Hereinafter, a pachislot machine that is a gaming machine according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

<Function flow>
First, the functional flow of the pachislot will be described with reference to FIG.
In the pachislot of this embodiment, medals are used as game media for playing games. In addition to the medals, coins, game balls, game point data, tokens, or the like can be applied as game media.

  When a player inserts a medal and operates the start lever, one value (hereinafter, random number value) is extracted from random numbers in a predetermined numerical range (for example, 0 to 65535).

  The internal lottery means performs lottery based on the extracted random number value and determines an internal winning combination. This internal lottery means is carried out by a main control circuit described later. By determining the internal winning combination, a combination of symbols that permits display along a winning determination line described later is determined. The types of symbol combinations include those related to “winning” in which benefits such as paying out medals, re-games, bonuses, etc. are given to players, and other so-called “loses”. Is provided.

  Further, when the start lever is operated, a plurality of reels are rotated. Thereafter, when the player presses the stop button corresponding to the predetermined reel, the reel stop control means performs control to stop the rotation of the corresponding reel based on the internal winning combination and the timing when the stop button is pressed. Do. The reel stop control means is responsible for a main control circuit described later.

  In the pachislot, basically, a control for stopping the rotation of the corresponding reel is performed within a specified time (190 msec or 75 msec) from when the stop button is pressed. In the present embodiment, the number of symbols that move with the rotation of the reel within the specified time is referred to as “the number of sliding symbols”. When the specified period is 190 msec, the maximum number of sliding symbols is set to 4 symbols, and when the specified period is 75 msec, the maximum number of sliding symbols is set to 1 symbol.

  When the internal winning combination allowing the symbol combination display related to winning is determined, the reel stop control means usually displays the symbol combination within the specified time of 190 msec (four symbols) for the winning determination line. The rotation of the reel is stopped so as to display as much as possible. In addition, the reel stop control means is defined for one or more reels when, for example, a challenge bonus (CB), which is a second-type special accessory, and a middle bonus (MB) for continuously operating the CB are operated. The reel rotation is stopped so that the combination of symbols is displayed as much as possible along the winning determination line within a time of 75 msec (for one symbol). Furthermore, the reel stop control means uses various specified times corresponding to the gaming state to rotate the reels so that combinations of symbols that are not permitted to be displayed by the internal winning combination are not displayed along the winning determination line. Stop.

  Thus, when the rotation of the plurality of reels is all stopped, the winning determination means determines whether or not the combination of symbols displayed along the winning determination line is related to winning. This winning determination means is carried out by a main control circuit described later. When it is determined by the winning determination means that it is related to winning, a privilege such as paying out medals is given to the player. In the pachislot, a series of flows as described above is performed as one game.

  Also, in the pachislot, in the above-described series of flows, various effects are performed using video display performed by a display device, light output performed by various lamps, sound output performed by a speaker, or a combination thereof. Is called.

  When the start lever is operated, an effect random number value (hereinafter referred to as effect random number value) is extracted separately from the random number value used for determining the internal winning combination. When the effect random number value is extracted, the effect content determining means determines, by lottery, what is to be executed this time from among a plurality of types of effect contents associated with the internal winning combination. This effect content determination means is carried out by a sub-control circuit described later.

  When the contents of the effect are determined, the effect executing means executes the corresponding effect in conjunction with each opportunity, such as when the rotation of the reels starts, when the rotation of each reel stops, or when determining whether there is a winning. In this way, in the pachislot machine, the player has the opportunity to know or predict the determined internal winning combination (in other words, the combination of symbols to be aimed at) by executing the production contents associated with the internal winning combination. It is possible to improve the player's interest.

The sealing pin 230 has a cylindrical body part 230a and a head part 230b continuous to one end (rear end) in the axial direction of the body part 230a. The other end portion (tip portion) of the trunk portion 230a is formed in a taper shape, and is set to a diameter smaller than the diameter other than the other end portion. In addition, a plurality of pin engaging grooves 230c extending in the circumferential direction are formed in an intermediate portion in the axial direction of the trunk portion 230a (a portion continuing to the tip portion). That is, the sealing pin 230 is a pin with an engagement groove.

  As shown in FIG. 11, a through hole 228 through which the body 230a of the sealing pin 230 passes is provided at the bottom of the pin housing cylinders 224A and 224B. The through hole 228 extends in the axial direction of the pin housing cylinders 224A and 224B.

  The welding protrusion 293 protrudes from the first surface of the sealing cover 272 and is formed in a rectangular frame shape surrounding the fitting recess 291 and the two pin recesses 292. The welding protrusion 293 comes into contact with the welding step 288 of the sealing base 271. The sealing base 271 and the sealing cover 272 are welded by generating heat at the boundary surface between the welding step 288 and the welding projection 293 by laser light, ultrasonic waves, or the like.

  The two partition projections 294 are disposed on both sides of the two pin recesses 292 in the left-right direction (horizontal direction) and inside the welding projection 293. The two partition protrusions 294 are formed in a protrusion that extends along the short side of the first surface of the sealing cover 272. When these two partition projections 294 are welded to the sealing base 271 and the sealing cover 272, the portion extending along the short side of the first surface of the sealing cover 272 in the welding projection 293 and the engagement for sealing It arrange | positions between the members 273. Thereby, when welding is performed using laser light, the laser light can be prevented from affecting the sealing engagement member 273.

  The four positioning recesses 295 are formed at four corners on the first surface of the sealing cover 272. The four positioning convex portions 289 of the sealing base 271 engage with the four positioning concave portions 295, respectively. Thereby, positioning of the sealing cover 272 with respect to the sealing base 271 can be performed easily. The four positioning recesses 295 and the four positioning recesses 295 may be welded portions between the sealing base 271 and the sealing cover 272.

  The sealing engaging member 273 is formed of a sheet metal material, and includes a main body plate 297 made of a rectangular plate body and two bent engaging portions 298 continuous with the main body plate 297. The main body plate 297 is sandwiched between the inner surface of the bottom of the sealing base 271 and the first surface of the sealing cover 272. The main body plate 297 is surrounded by a welding step 288 of the sealing base 271.

  The main body plate 297 is formed with a positioning through hole 297a and two pin through holes 297b. The positioning through hole 297a is disposed at the center of the main body plate 297 and is formed in a circular shape. The protruding portion 285 of the sealing base 271 passes through the positioning through hole 297a.

  The two pin through holes 297 b are arranged in the longitudinal direction of the main body plate 297 and face the two pin insertion holes 281 of the sealing base 271. The two pin through-holes 297 b are formed in a circular shape, and the diameter thereof is larger than the diameter of the body portion 230 a in the sealing pin 230.

The As a result, the sealing engagement member 273 can be easily positioned.

[Connection between the first sealing part and the second sealing part]
Next, connection between the first sealing portion 212 and the second sealing portion 216 will be described with reference to FIGS. 15 and 16. FIG. 15 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA shown in FIG. 16 is a cross-sectional view taken along line BB shown in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 15, in order to assemble the second sealing portion 216, the sealing engagement member 273 and the sealing cover 272 are received from the side opposite to the side facing the first sealing portion 212 in the sealing base 271 and sealed. The sealing base 271 and the sealing cover 272 are welded inside the base 271. As a result, the sealing cover 272 can be prevented from being arranged outside, and it is difficult to forcibly remove the sealing base 271 and the sealing cover 272. As a result, the sealing base 271 and the sealing cover 272 are separated by a method in which a trace remains, and it is possible to prevent or suppress an unauthorized act by opening the main control board case 201.

  An illegal act (modification) on the substrate (substrate case) is performed when the store is closed and no one is present. As modifications, for example, illegal parts that make it easier to obtain profits from electrical components placed on the board (with certain procedures, etc., the payout rate increases or is forced to be paid regardless of the outcome of the game) Replacement.

  By the way, just making a modification to the substrate does not generate any profit for the person who made the modification. A person who has made a modification can gain a profit by coming to a general player at a later date and playing a game (or a predetermined operation) with the modified gaming machine. Therefore, if the alteration can be detected by a later date, damage can be avoided. On the other hand, a person who performs an illegal act needs to make a modification without leaving a trace so that the modification is not detected. Therefore, it can be said that if the substrate case can be configured so that modification can be performed only by a method in which a trace remains, fraud can be prevented.

  In the present embodiment, the welding protrusion 293 is provided on the first surface of the sealing cover 272. The first surface of the sealing cover 272 is an end surface opposite to the second surface of the sealing cover 272 exposed from the opening of the sealing base 271. Therefore, even if a tool or the like is inserted from the opening of the sealing base 271, it is difficult to reach the welded portion between the sealing base 271 and the sealing cover 272, and it is difficult to forcibly peel the sealing base 271 and the sealing cover 272. Become.

  In addition, as a welding protrusion of the sealing cover 272 (2nd to-be-welded member) which concerns on this invention, it is not limited to forming in the frame shape (entire periphery) along the edge of a 1st surface, For example, It may be formed along two opposing sides, or may be formed so as to be arranged at an appropriate interval. Moreover, as a welding protrusion of the sealing cover 272 (2nd to-be-welded member) which concerns on this invention, it can set to arbitrary positions, for example, you may provide a welding protrusion on a side surface. Further, the sealing cover 272 (second welding member) according to the present invention may be welded to the sealing base 271 (first welding member) without providing the welding protrusion.

  Moreover, the 2nd surface of the sealing cover 272 exposed from opening of the sealing base 271 is formed in the smooth (without an unevenness | corrugation) plane (refer FIG. 14). Therefore, it becomes difficult to grip the sealing cover 272, and it is difficult to forcefully peel off the sealing base 271 and the sealing cover 272.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 15, the sealing base 271 includes a deformation suppressing portion 286 that contacts the plurality of engaging pieces 299 of the sealing engaging member 273. Thereby, it can prevent or suppress that the some engagement piece 299 elastically deforms in the direction opposite to the insertion direction of the sealing pin 230. FIG. Accordingly, the engagement between the sealing pin 230 and the plurality of engaging pieces 299 can be prevented from being released, and the connection between the first sealing portion 212 and the second sealing portion 216 is prevented or suppressed. be able to.

  Before connecting the first sealing portion 212 and the second sealing portion 216, the sealing pin 230 is disposed at a standby position in the pin housing cylinders 224A and 224B. In the standby position, the front end of the body portion 230a of the sealing pin 230 is held by a plurality of pin holding portions 229 provided in the pin housing cylinders 224A and 224B, and the head portion 230b of the sealing pin 230 is connected to the sealing lid 222. Is engaged. The shaft of the sealing pin 230 is substantially parallel to the front-rear direction (horizontal direction) of the exterior body (game machine main body) 2.

  As shown in FIG. 16, the plurality of pin holding portions 229 are arranged so as to avoid the lower side of the vertical direction g of the sealing pin 230, and the sealing pin 230 is held by at least two pin holding portions 229A and 229B. Yes. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the sealing pin 230 from being held in a state shifted in a direction orthogonal to the insertion direction. The sealing pin 230 can be prevented from penetrating the pin insertion hole 281 of the second sealing portion 216 and the pin through hole of the sealing engaging member 273 in a state where the sealing pin 230 is displaced. As a result, it is possible to prevent incomplete connection between the first sealing portion 212 and the second sealing portion 216, and to improve the reliability and certainty of sealing by the first sealing portion 212 and the second sealing portion 216. Can be made.

  Further, the plurality of pin holding portions 229 hold the tip end portion of the trunk portion 230a (the head 230b side from the tip end) of the sealing pin 230. Thereby, the attitude | position of the sealing pin 230 can be stabilized rather than the case where the front end surface of the trunk | drum 230a in the sealing pin 230 is hold | maintained. The tip (tip surface) of the sealing pin 230 is disposed in a pin recess provided in the pin housing cylinders 224A and 224B. Thereby, the front-end | tip of the sealing pin 230 arrange | positioned at a standby position can be prevented from interfering with another member (2nd sealing part 216).

  Further, the plurality of pin holding portions 229 have an inclined surface 229a (see FIG. 15) for guiding the sealing pin 230. Thereby, the sealing pin 230 can be easily inserted to a position (standby position) where the sealing pin 230 is engaged with the plurality of pin holding portions 229.

  When connecting the 1st sealing part 212 and the 2nd sealing part 216 with the sealing pin 230, the head 230b of the sealing pin 230 arrange | positioned in a stand-by position is pressed with a tool. A tool or the like can pass through the through-hole 253 provided in the sealing lid 222 and contact the head 230 b of the sealing pin 230.

  The sealing pin 230 whose head 230b is pressed moves in the axial direction parallel to the front-rear direction (horizontal direction) against the plurality of pin holding portions 229. The sealing pin 230 passes through the pin insertion hole 281 of the second sealing portion 216 (sealing base 271) and the pin through hole 297b of the sealing engagement member 273. At this time, the plurality of engaging pieces 299 of the sealing engaging member 273 engage with the pin engaging groove 230c of the sealing pin 230 and are pressed in the insertion direction of the sealing pin 230 to be elastically deformed. Thereby, the movement to the direction opposite to the insertion direction of the sealing pin 230 is latched.

  When the head 230b of the sealing pin 230 comes into contact with the bottom of the pin housing cylinders 224A and 224B, the connection between the first sealing portion 212 and the second sealing portion 216 is completed, and the first member 202 and the second member 203 are completed. The combined state of is sealed.

  A second sealing portion (not shown) that engages with the first sealing portion 213 and seals the coupled state of the first member 202 (main control board case 201) and the cabinet 2a is the same as the second sealing portion 216. It has a configuration. Therefore, the connection (engagement) between the first seal portion 213 and the second seal portion (not shown) provided in the cabinet 2a is the same as the connection (engagement) between the first seal portion 212 and the second seal portion 216. To be done.

  In this embodiment, two sealing pins are used for one sealing part (the first sealing part 212 and the second sealing part 216), but one of the two sealing pins 230 is a spare. . Therefore, the connection between the first sealing part 212 and the second sealing part 216 is performed by one sealing pin 230.

  When the main control board case 201 is opened for inspection or the like, the pin housing cylinder (224A or 224B) on the side connected by the sealing pin 230 is cut from the first member 202. That is, the protruding piece (241A or 241B) of the connecting portion 225 is cut, and the intermediate portion of the connecting piece 242 of the connecting portion 225 is cut (the sealing lid 222 is also cut together). Thereby, the pin housing cylinder (224A or 224B) can be cut from the first member 202, and the connection between the first sealing portion 212 and the second sealing portion 216 is released. Thereafter, when sealing the coupling state of the first member 202 and the second member 203 again, the first sealing portion 212 and the second sealing portion 216 are connected by the spare sealing pin 230.

[Mounting position of main control board case]
Next, the attachment position of the main control board case 201 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 17 is a longitudinal sectional view of the upper part of the cabinet 2a.

  As shown in FIG. 17, the main control board case 201 is attached to the upper part of the cabinet 2a. As described above, the main control board case 201 has the first member 202 and the second member 203 overlapped in the front-rear direction. The first member 202 is provided with a first sealing portion 212, and the second member 203 is provided with a second sealing portion 216.

  The first sealing portion 212 is disposed in front of the second sealing portion 216, and the second sealing portion 216 faces the inner wall surface 2A of the cabinet 2a (game machine main body). The opening of the sealing base 271 of the second sealing portion 216 faces the inner wall surface 2A. When the first member 202 and the second member 203 are formed of a resin material that is not colorless and transparent, the sealing cover 272 accommodated in the sealing base 271 cannot be viewed from the front side of the cabinet 2a.

  The length L1 in the insertion direction of the sealing cover 272 with respect to the sealing base 271 (the longitudinal direction of the gaming machine main body) is the distance from the second surface of the sealing cover 272 (the end surface exposed from the opening of the sealing base 271) to the inner wall surface 2A. Longer than L2. Therefore, even if the sealing cover 272 is to be removed from the sealing base 271, the sealing cover 272 cannot interfere with the inner wall surface 2 </ b> A, so that the sealing cover 272 cannot be extracted from the sealing base 271.

  That is, when removing the sealing cover 272 from the sealing base 271, it is necessary to remove the main control board case 201 from the gaming machine body. Thereby, it is possible to make it difficult to peel off the welded portion of the sealing base 271 and the sealing cover 272 in a state where the main control board case 201 is attached to the gaming machine main body. As a result, it is possible to prevent or suppress the unauthorized operation by opening the main control board case 201.

  In the present embodiment, the sealing cover 272 is inserted into the sealing base 271 on the back side (attachment side) of the main control board case 201. Therefore, when the main control board case 201 is attached to the cabinet 2a (or the front door 2b), the cabinet 2a becomes an obstacle and the sealing cover 272 cannot be removed from the sealing base 271. As a result, it is possible to prevent or suppress the unauthorized operation by opening the main control board case 201. That is, if it is the structure which inserts the 2nd welding member from the attachment side of a sealing target object with respect to a 1st welding member, it becomes impossible to remove a 2nd welding member from a 1st welding member, and a sealing target object Can be prevented or suppressed from being illegally released.

  In the present embodiment, the movement restricting portion 283 of the second sealing portion 216 engages with the engaging groove 227 of the first sealing portion 212. As a result, the sealing pin 230 and the plurality of engaging pieces 299 of the sealing engaging member 273 are engaged with each other in a state where the first sealing portion 212 and the second sealing portion 216 are displaced, and the first sealing portion 212 and the second sealing portion It is possible to prevent the sealing using the sealing part 216 from being incomplete. As a result, the certainty of the sealing work can be improved, and fraud can be further prevented or suppressed.

  Further, even when the pin housing cylinder 224B of the first sealing portion 212 is separated from the first member 202 and the pin housing cylinder 224A remains, the movement restricting portion 283 of the second sealing portion 216 is not included in the pin housing cylinder 224A. The engagement groove 227 is engaged. Therefore, it is impossible to rotate or displace the pin housing cylinder 224A by applying a force to the pin housing cylinder 224A. As a result, it is possible to prevent the connecting piece 241A from being cut by applying a force to the pin housing cylinder 224A.

  Further, the engagement groove 227 becomes narrower toward the opening side of the pin housing cylinder 224A. That is, the groove width of the engagement groove 227 becomes narrower as it reaches the direction in which the movement restricting portion 283 is inserted into the engagement groove 227. Accordingly, the movement restricting portion 283 can be easily engaged with the engaging groove 227, and the movement restricting portion 283 can be reliably brought into contact with the engaging groove 227.

  In this embodiment, the engaging groove 227 is provided in the pin housing cylinder 224A of the first sealing portion 212, and the movement restricting portion 283 made of a rib is provided in the engaging wall 282 of the second sealing portion 216. However, the movement restricting portion according to the present invention may be a groove portion. In this case, a rib is provided on the pin housing cylinder 224A. That is, the engaging portion that engages with the movement restricting portion according to the present invention may be a rib.

  In the present embodiment, the engagement groove 227 is provided in the pin housing cylinder 224A of the first sealing portion 212. However, as an engaging portion that engages with the movement restricting portion according to the present invention, an engaging groove (may be a rib) as an engaging portion may be provided in a sealing lid fixed to the pin housing cylinder 224A. In this case, a notch is provided in the connection piece 242 (see FIG. 10) of the connecting portion 225, and the engagement groove of the sealing lid is arranged in the notch. Further, it is preferable that the height of the engagement wall 282 of the second sealing portion 216 is increased so as to be opposed to the engagement groove of the sealing lid, and the movement restricting portion is provided in a portion facing the engagement groove.

  By providing the engagement groove on the sealing lid, it is not necessary to engage the engagement groove and the movement restricting portion when the first member 202 and the second member 203 are overlapped. That is, if the sealing lid is fixed to the pin housing cylinders 224A and 224B after the pin housing cylinders 224A and 224B of the first sealing section 212 are inserted into the engaging walls 282 of the second sealing section 216, the engagement grooves move. The restricting portion can be engaged. As a result, even when the first member or the second member is large, the engagement between the engagement groove and the movement restricting portion can be prevented from becoming complicated.

  Further, the engagement groove of the sealing lid may have a length that penetrates the notch provided in the connection piece 242 (see FIG. 10) of the connecting portion 225. In that case, the engaging groove faces the outer surface of the pin housing cylinder 224A in a direction intersecting the insertion direction of the sealing pin 230. Therefore, a connection portion connected to the engagement groove may be provided on the outer surface of the pin housing cylinder 224A. Thereby, breakage of the engaging groove protruding from the sealing lid can be prevented or suppressed. Further, the movement restricting portion and the engaging groove can be engaged without increasing the height of the engaging wall 282 of the second sealing portion 216.

  In this embodiment, the sealing cover 272 is welded to the sealing base 271 outside the main control board case 201. However, the sealing base according to the present invention may be one that is welded to the sealing base inside the substrate case. That is, the structure which closes the space connected to opening of a sealing base (1st to-be-welded member) may be sufficient.

  In the present embodiment, the second surface of the sealing cover 272 accommodated in the sealing base 271 is configured to face the inner wall surface 2A. However, the second surface (the end surface exposed from the opening of the sealing base) of the sealing cover according to the present invention may face other components. Examples of other components include a middle door 341, a fan, and a bracket for mounting components, which will be described later.

The 2nd latching claw 648 consists of the arm part formed by providing a notch in the side plates 643 and 644, and the claw part provided in the front-end | tip of an arm part. The arm part of the 2nd latching claw 648 is formed in plate shape, and can be elastically deformed (flexible deformation) in the direction in which the side plates 643 and 644 face each other. The claw portions of the two second locking claws 648 oppose each other in the direction in which the side plates 643 and 644 oppose each other.

  When attaching the seal cover 641 to the main control board case 601, the seal cover 641 is lowered from above the first seal attaching part 614 and the second seal attaching part 628. At this time, the side plates 643 and 644 of the seal cover 641 are guided to the guide portions 686A and 686B (see FIG. 44) of the first member 602.

  Thereafter, when the lowering of the seal cover 641 is continued, the two first locking claws 645 of the seal cover 641 are inserted into the two claw insertion holes 683 of the first seal affixing portion 614, and then the 2 of the seal cover 641. One engaging pin 646 is inserted into a pin engaging hole (not shown) of the first seal attaching part 614.

  The two first locking claws 645 inserted into the two claw insertion holes 683 slide on the respective hole wall surfaces forming the two claw insertion holes 683 in an elastically deformed (flexible deformation) state. That is, the hole wall surface that forms the two claw insertion holes 683 represents a specific example of a claw sliding portion that elastically deforms the first locking claw according to the present invention.

  On the other hand, the two second locking claws 648 of the seal cover 641 slide on the side surfaces of the first seal attaching part 614 and the second seal attaching part 628 in a state of being elastically deformed (flexed deformation). That is, the side surfaces of the first seal pasting portion 614 and the second seal pasting portion 628 show a specific example of a claw sliding portion that elastically deforms the second locking claws according to the present invention.

  In addition, as a nail | claw sliding part which elastically deforms the 2nd latching nail | claw which concerns on this invention, one of the side surfaces of the 1st seal | sticker sticking part 614 and the 2nd seal | sticker sticking part 628 may be sufficient. In the present embodiment, since the first slope 681 and the second slope 691 have substantially the same size, the second locking claw 648 has a boundary line (bonding) on the side surfaces of the first seal pasting part 614 and the second seal pasting part 628. Part). However, if the sizes of the first slope 681 and the second slope 691 are not equalized, the second locking claw 648 slides on the side surface of the first seal pasting portion 614 or the second seal pasting portion 628.

  Further, when the seal cover 641 continues to descend, the two first locking claws 645 of the seal cover 641 are released from elastic deformation (bending deformation), and the two first claw engagements of the first seal attaching portion 614 are released. Engage with part 684. In addition, the two second locking claws 648 of the seal cover 641 are released from elastic deformation (bending deformation) and engage with the bottom surface of the second seal attaching portion 628. Further, the arm portions of the two second locking claws 648 engage with the claw restricting portion 692 of the second seal attaching portion 628. Thereby, the attachment of the seal cover 641 to the main control board case 601 is completed.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, it is possible to easily engage the first seal pasting portion 614 and the second seal pasting portion 628 simply by lowering the seal cover 641. Further, in order to remove the seal cover 641, it is necessary to pull up the seal cover 641 while releasing the engagement of both the first locking claws 645 and the second locking claws 648. Therefore, the removal of the seal cover 641 can be complicated, and the sealing seal 640 can be prevented from being peeled so that the seal seal 640 is exposed and no trace remains.

  When the main control board case 601 is opened not for the purpose of fraud but for inspection or the like, a trace may remain on the seal seal 640. Therefore, it is not necessary to remove the seal cover 641 from both the seal sticking part 614 (first member 602) and the second seal sticking part 628 (second member 603). Therefore, it is only necessary to separate the first member 602 and the second member 603 while releasing the engagement of one locking claw (the first locking claw 645 or the second locking claw 648), and the work is not complicated. Can be.

  Further, the second locking claw 648 of the seal cover 641 covers the boundary line between the side surface of the second seal pasting portion 628 and the side surface of the first seal pasting portion 614. Thereby, it is possible to prevent a wire, an instrument, or the like from entering the main control board case 601 from the boundary line between the side surface of the second seal pasting portion 628 and the side surface of the first seal pasting portion 614.

  In the present embodiment, the second locking claw 648 covers the boundary line between the side surface of the second seal pasting portion 628 and the side surface of the first seal pasting portion 614. However, as a seal cover according to the present invention, the boundary line between the side surface of the second seal pasting portion 628 and the side surface of the first seal pasting portion 614 may be covered with a side plate.

[Position of sticking surface]
Next, the position of the seal pasting surface 630 will be described with reference to FIG.

  The seal attachment surface 630 to which the seal seal 640 (see FIG. 42) is attached is provided on the side surface of the main control board case 601 opposite to the side surface on the hinge side of the front door 2b. Thereby, even if it does not fully open front door 2b, seal pasting surface 630 (seal cover 641) can be checked.

  In this embodiment, a seal cover 641 that covers the seal seal 640 is provided to protect the seal seal 640 and prevent easy contact. As the seal cover according to the present invention, a seal window that exposes a part of the seal seal 640 attached to the seal attachment surface 630 may be provided. As a result, even if the seal cover 641 is attached after the seal seal 640 has been peeled off or cut, it is possible to confirm whether there is an abnormality by directly touching the seal seal 640 with a finger from the seal window. it can. As a result, it is possible to easily find the cutting of the seal seal 640.

  In addition, the sealing window is preferably provided in a region including a joint portion between the first slope 681 and the second slope 691 (see FIG. 44). As a result, the first member 602 and the second member 603 are separated, and it can be easily found that the portion of the seal seal 640 facing the joint between the first inclined surface 681 and the second inclined surface 691 has been cut. .

[First sealed part]
Next, the structure of the 1st sealing part 612,613 is demonstrated with reference to FIGS. 48-51.
FIG. 48 is an explanatory view of the first sealing portions 612 and 613 as seen from above after being disassembled. 49 is a cross-sectional view taken along line EE shown in FIG. 50 is a cross-sectional view taken along line FF shown in FIG.

  The 1st sealing part 612 and the 1st sealing part 613 have the same composition. Therefore, here, the first sealing unit 612 will be described, and the description of the first sealing unit 613 will be omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 48, the first sealing portion 612 has a pin penetrating portion 661 and a sealing lid 662. The pin penetration part 661 shows the 2nd specific example of the sealant penetration part which concerns on this invention.

  The pin housing cylinders 664A and 664B have the same configuration as the pin housing cylinders 224A and 224B according to the first embodiment. The difference is that the pin housing cylinder 224A has an engagement groove 227. The pin housing cylinder 664A does not have the engagement groove 227. Hereinafter, portions common to the pin accommodating cylinders 224A and 224B in the pin accommodating cylinders 664A and 664B are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant description is omitted.

  The connecting portion 665 has connecting pieces 671A, 671B, 671C, 671D, housing pieces 672A, 672B, a connecting piece 673, and thin portions 674A, 674B, 674C, 674D. The connecting pieces 671A, 671B, 671C, 671D, the connecting piece 673, and the thin portions 674A, 674B, 674C, 674D are formed of a material that can be cut by a tool or the like, for example, a resin material.

  The connecting pieces 671A, 671B, 671C, and 671D protrude substantially vertically from the rear wall portion 602c of the first member 602. The casing pieces 672A, 672B connect the connecting pieces 671A, 671B, 671C, 671D and the pin housing cylinders 664A, 664B. The connection piece 673 connects the pin housing cylinders 664A and 664B.

  The casing pieces 672A and 672B are formed in a hollow rectangular parallelepiped shape having an opening at the bottom, and the upper surface portion is continuous with the peripheral surfaces of the pin housing cylinders 664A and 664B. Engagement protrusions 675A and 675B surrounding the open ends of the pin housing cylinders 664A and 664B are provided on the upper surface of the casing pieces 672A and 672B.

  Engagement protrusions 675A and 675B are formed in an annular shape with a part cut away, and end portions that are notched portions are continuous with mutually opposing side surfaces of casing pieces 672A and 672B. . A connection piece 673 is disposed in the cut-out portion of the engagement protrusion 674. Further, the engaging protrusions 675A and 675B protrude in the axial direction of the pin housing cylinders 664A and 664B from the pin housing cylinders 664A and 664B. A sealing lid 662 engages with the engaging protrusions 675A and 675B.

  The connecting pieces 671A and 671B are continuous with the side surface of the housing piece 672A that faces the rear wall portion 602c, and form the same plane as the upper surface of the housing piece 672A. On the other hand, the connecting pieces 671C and 671D are continuous to the side surface of the housing piece 672B that faces the rear wall portion 602c, and form the same plane as the upper surface of the housing piece 672B.

  The thin portion 674A is formed in a substantially rectangular shape surrounded by the connecting pieces 671A and 671B, the casing piece 672A, and the rear wall portion 602c. The thin portion 674A is composed of a plate that continues to the connecting pieces 671A and 671B, the casing piece 672A, and the rear wall 602c.

  The thin portion 674B is formed in a substantially T shape surrounded by the connecting pieces 671B and 671C, the casing pieces 672A and 672B, the connecting piece 673, and the rear wall portion 602c. The thin portion 674B is composed of a plate body continuous to the connecting pieces 671B and 671C, the connecting piece 673, the casing pieces 672A and 672B, and the rear wall portion 602c.

  The thin part 674C is formed in a substantially rectangular shape surrounded by the connecting pieces 671C and 671D, the casing piece 672B, and the rear wall part 602c. The thin portion 674C is composed of a plate that continues to the connecting pieces 671C and 671D, the casing piece 672B, and the rear wall portion 602c.

  The thin portion 674D is formed in a substantially rectangular shape surrounded by the connection piece 673 and the casing pieces 672A and 672B. The thin portion 674D is formed of a plate body having three sides continuous to the connection piece 673 and the casing pieces 672A and 672B.

  As shown in FIGS. 49 and 50, the thin portions 674A, 674B, 674C, 674D are formed to be thinner than the connecting pieces 671A, 671B, 671C, 671D and the connecting pieces 673. The thin portions 674A, 674B, 674C, 674D are formed continuously to the connecting pieces 671A, 671B, 671C, 671D or the connecting pieces 673.

  As a result, when the connecting piece is cut, it is necessary to break through the thin portion continuing to the connecting piece, and the thin portion having a small thickness is liable to have a fouling mark and the mark becomes conspicuous. As a result, it is possible to prevent the disconnection of the connecting piece from being overlooked and delaying the detection of fraud. Moreover, since it is easy to detect fraud, fraud can be prevented or suppressed.

  For example, in order to separate the pin housing cylinder 664A from the rear wall portion 602c (first member 602), it is necessary to cut the connecting pieces 671A and 671B. A thin portion 674A is provided between the connecting pieces 671A and 671B. Therefore, when using a tool that sandwiches and cuts the connecting piece 671A or the connecting piece 671B, the thin part 674A must be pierced with the tool. Therefore, traces remain in the thin portion 674A, and cheating is easily detected.

  Further, even when the connecting pieces 671A and 671B are cut without using a tool that sandwiches and cuts the connecting piece 671A or the connecting piece 671B, when the connecting piece 671A is cut and when the connecting piece 671B is cut. Since the thin portion 674A is added, the probability that the thin portion 674A is destroyed increases, so that traces are likely to remain.

  Further, the connecting piece 671B is surrounded by the thin part 674A and the thin part 674B. Therefore, when cutting the connecting piece 671B, it is necessary to first destroy (cut) the thin portion 674A or the thin portion 674B. As a result, destruction marks remain in the thin part 674A or the thin part 674B, and cheating is easily detected.

  As the connecting piece according to the present invention, at least a part of the side continuous with the thin portion may be curved. Because it is difficult to cut the thin part along the curved part of the connecting piece, it is difficult to cut the thin part so that the breaking mark is difficult to understand along the curved part of the connecting piece, so that the thin part is difficult to understand. Traces are likely to remain.

  In addition, you may form a curved part in the housing | casing piece 672A (1st sealing part 612) and the rear wall part 602c (1st member 602). In addition, it is more difficult to cut the thin portion along the curved portion, and the trace is more likely to remain when the curved portion is formed by a plurality of curved portions that are continuous like wavy lines. Moreover, you may provide an unevenness | corrugation in a part of connection piece (a 1st sealing part or a 1st member main body), without curving a part of a connection piece (a 1st sealing part or a 1st member main body). Even in this case, since it is difficult to cut the thin portion so that the fracture mark is difficult to understand, the trace is likely to remain.

  Moreover, as a thin part which concerns on this invention, the slit may be formed. Thereby, it is possible to guide the destruction of the thin portion so that the destruction traces easily remain, and the traces easily remain. Examples of the shape of the slit include a polygonal line shape. In this case, since the destruction of the thin portion is a polygonal line, the trace can be easily found.

  In addition, the shape of a slit is not limited to a polygonal line shape, For example, it can set arbitrarily, such as a broken line and a dashed-dotted line. Moreover, a trace becomes easier to remain by making the extending direction of the slit the direction intersecting the cutting direction of the connecting piece.

  In the present embodiment, the thin portion 674A is formed continuously from the connecting pieces 671A and 671B, the casing piece 672A (first sealing portion 612), and the rear wall portion 602c (first member 602). As a result, when the first sealing portion 612 is separated from the first member 602, the thin portion 674A is surely destroyed (cut), so that a destruction trace can be reliably left in the thin portion.

  However, the thin portion according to the present invention only needs to be continuous with at least the connecting piece, and may be continuous with the first sealing portion or the first member main body in addition to the connecting piece. In this case, the thin portion is made to be continuously located at a position that is obstructive when the connecting piece is cut. Thereby, destruction marks remain in the thin part, and it becomes easy to find fraud.

  The sealing lid 662 has an outer shape that matches the engagement protrusions 675A and 675B, and includes two disk parts 677A and 677B and a connection part 678 that connects the two disk parts 677A and 677B. ing. The sealing lid 662 is engaged with the engaging protrusions 675A and 675B, and is fixed to the end surfaces on the opening side of the pin housing cylinders 664A and 664B by welding.

  The two disk portions 677A and 677B of the sealing lid 662 are opposed to the end surfaces on the opening side of the pin housing cylinders 664A and 664B, and the connection portion 678 is opposed to the connection piece 673. The two disk portions 677A and 677B are set to have the same diameter as the pin housing cylinders 664A and 664B.

  The two disk portions 677A and 677B are provided with through holes 679, respectively. The diameter of the through hole 679 is smaller than the diameter of the head 230 b of the sealing pin 230. Therefore, the sealing lid 662 latches the sealing pin 230 from coming out from the pin housing cylinders 664A, 664B. When the head 230b of the sealing pin 230 is pressed, a tool or the like is passed through the through holes 679 of the disk portions 677A and 677B.

  Further, a pin restricting protrusion 667 and a welding protrusion 668 are formed on the surfaces of the two disk portions 677A and 677B facing the pin housing cylinders 664A and 664B (FIG. 52). The pin restricting protrusion 667 is formed in a cylindrical shape surrounding the through hole 679, and restricts movement to the opening side of the sealing pin 230 accommodated in the pin accommodating cylinders 664A and 664B. The welding projection 668 is formed in a cylindrical shape having a larger diameter than the pin regulation projection 667. The welding protrusion 668 is welded to the opening-side end surfaces of the pin housing cylinders 664A, 664B.

As a result, fraudulent acts on electronic components and the like disposed inside the main control board 371 and the main control board case 601 can be prevented.

  Even if the bearings 618 and 619 are not provided with bearing holes but are provided with recesses for receiving the shafts, the bearings 618 and 619 are formed with portions that are thinner than the surroundings. Since the portion where the thickness is thinner than the surroundings can be easily pierced, cheating is easily performed. Therefore, it is useful to arrange a bracket in a portion corresponding to the bearing portion on the inner surface of the main control board case so that it is difficult to make a hole communicating with the main control board case. In this case, the bracket may be brought into contact with a portion corresponding to the bearing portion on the inner surface of the main control board case.

  In the present embodiment, bearing portions 618 and 619 are provided on the first member 602, and the switch bracket 621 is attached to the first member 602. Thereby, in a state where the first member 602 is assembled (a state before being overlapped with the second member 603), the communication holes 618a and 619a are blocked by the fitting convex portions 741 and 742 of the switch bracket 621. Can be confirmed. As a result, the workability of the assembly work of the main control board case 601 can be improved.

  For example, when the bearing portions 618 and 619 are provided on the first member 602 and the switch bracket 621 is attached to the second member 603, the assembly of the first member 602 and the second member 603 and the fitting of the switch bracket 621 are performed. It is necessary to simultaneously fit the mating convex portions 741 and 742 to the communication holes 618a and 619a, and the assembling work becomes complicated.

  In the present embodiment, the front end surfaces 734a and 735a of the two arm portions 734 and 735 from which the fitting convex portions 741 and 742 protrude are brought into contact with the inner surface of the main control board case 601. Thereby, it can suppress that a wire etc. are inserted in the main control board case 601 from between the communication holes 618a and 619a and the fitting convex parts 741 and 742.
