In the case where the bottom plate portion 201 is manufactured by injection molding or the like, ejector pin marks and the like generated at the time of molding are disposed at a position such as the back side which is difficult for the player to visually recognize.

The bottom plate portion 201 is disposed along a substantially horizontal surface, and both end portions on the near side in a horizontally long substantially rectangular shape whose chamfers in the left-right direction are longer than the lengths in the front-rear direction (direction between the front and back) are chamfered. It has a shape that The front wall portion 202, the right wall portion 203, and the left wall portion 204 correspond to the bottom plate portion 20.
It is erected facing upward from the edge of 1. The front wall 202 is a long wall in the left-right direction, and the right wall 203 and the left wall 204 are long walls in the front-rear direction. The connection between the front wall 202 and the right wall 203 and the front Both corner portions, which are connection portions of the wall portion 202 and the left wall portion 204, are both curved. Therefore, even when the player or the like collides with both ends on the front side, pain and the like given to the player can be reduced.

The connecting portion between the bottom plate portion 201 and the front wall portion 202 is sloped downward from the near side to the far side. The connecting portion between the bottom plate portion 201 and the right wall portion 203 is inclined downward from the right to the left, and the connecting portion between the bottom plate portion 201 and the left wall portion 204 is from the left to the right Is inclined downward. Thus, the bottom plate portion 201 and the front wall portion 202,
Each of the connecting portions of the right wall portion 203 and the left wall portion 204 is inclined downward from the outside to the inside. Therefore, since the medals in the medal receiver 200 move along the inclination, the medals can be easily picked up from the medal receiver 200. Also, the bottom plate portion 201
The medals can be prevented from staying between the front wall 202, the right wall 203, and the left wall 204.

On the back side of the bottom plate portion 201, a reinforcing structure 206 is provided. The reinforcing structure 206 is shown in FIG.

A slight gap is formed between the connecting portion of the bottom plate portion 201 and the front wall portion 202, the right wall portion 203, and the left wall portion 204 and the reinforcing plate 309. The width of the connection between the front wall 202, the right wall 203, and the left wall 204 and the gap between the reinforcing plate 309 is narrower than the thickness of the medal used for playing the slot machine 1. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the medal from rising in the gap between the connecting portion of the front wall portion 202, the right wall portion 203, and the left wall portion 204 and the reinforcing plate 309.

On the back side of the reinforcing plate 207, a mounting piece 20 hanging down substantially orthogonal to the reinforcing plate 207
7A is provided. The reinforcing plate 207 is fixed to the bottom plate portion 201 by screwing or the like the mounting piece 207A to the back surface of the bottom plate portion 201. Therefore, the fixed portion between the reinforcing plate 207 and the bottom plate portion 201 can be made invisible from the player, and the appearance of the slot machine 1 can be prevented from being impaired. When the medal receiver 200 is attached to the front door 1b, the attachment piece 207A is disposed between the back surface of the bottom plate portion 201 and the front surface of the front door 1b. For this reason, it becomes possible to make it difficult for the reinforcing plate 207 and the bottom plate portion 201 to be separated even when the screwing is released, as well as the screwing is difficult to be removed.

On the right wall 203 side, a flat portion 203A substantially at the same height position as the upper end of the right wall 203 is formed. Similarly, on the left wall portion 204 side, a flat portion 204A substantially at the same height position as the upper end of the left wall portion 204 is formed. As described above, the flat portions 203A and 204A are formed on the sides of the right wall portion 203 and the left wall portion 204, whereby the medals overflowing from the medal accommodating portion 205 can be received by the flat portions 203A and 204A. So you can make it hard for the medals to fall to the floor. The plate material including the bottom plate portion 201 has a substantially trapezoidal shape in plan view.

In the slot machine 100 according to the first embodiment having the above configuration, the medal receiver 200
A reinforcing structure 206 for reinforcing the bottom plate portion 201 is formed on the back side of the bottom plate portion 201. Therefore, since the medal receiver 200 is reinforced by the reinforcing structure 206, destruction of the medal receiver 200 can be prevented even when a large amount of medals are stored in the medal receiver 200.

Further, on the back surface of the bottom plate portion 201 in the medal receiving plate 200, the longitudinal rib 2 extending downward is provided.
A reinforcing structure 206 is provided which comprises 06A and transverse ribs 206B. Therefore, since the medal receiver 200 is reinforced by the longitudinal ribs 206A and the lateral ribs 206B of the reinforcement structure 206, destruction of the medal receiver 200 can be prevented even when a large amount of medals are stored in the medal receiver 200. .

Further, the front wall portion 202 extends beyond the bottom plate portion 201 to the lower side of the bottom plate portion 201 and the front rib 2
It is said to be 06C. Therefore, since the medal receiver 200 is reinforced by the front ribs 206C, destruction of the medal receiver 200 can be prevented even when a large amount of medals are stored in the medal receiver 200.

For this reason, the back part in the right wall part 511 and the left wall part 512 can be made into a smooth shape.

If the connection between the right wall 511 and the left wall 512 of the medal receiver 510 and the lower part of the front door 104 is square, it is a sense of discomfort (discomfort) when the player inserts a hand into this part
There is a possibility of remembering. In this respect, since the connection portion has a curved shape, it is possible to reduce the discomfort (discomfort) given to the player who has touched the connection portion.

Eighth Modification
An eighth modification will now be described. The eighth modification is mainly different from the first embodiment in the aspect of the right wall and the left wall in the above embodiment. As shown in FIG. 7 (B), the eighth
The right wall portion 521 and the left wall portion 522 of the medal medal receiver 520 according to the modification are shaped such that the right side is high and the left side is low. Therefore, it is possible to suppress that the medal stored in the medal housing portion 523 overflows from the right side of the front door lower portion 104 and falls to the floor.

In the right wall portion 521, the right side is generally higher than the left side, and on the right end side of the right wall portion 521, the front side is lower than the back side. For this reason, the position which mounts the nozzle in a medal lending machine is securable. Further, the right wall 521 is thicker than the front wall 202. For this reason, the overflow of the medal from the right side is prevented more reliably.

Also, a token lending machine is often installed on the right side of the slot machine, and the nozzle of the token lending machine is mounted on the right wall portion 403 of the slot machine. At this time, the right wall 52

Further, the connection portion of the left wall portion 522 with the front door lower portion 104 is shaped such that the left side is high and the right side is low. For this reason, it is possible to suppress that the medal overflowing from the left side of the medal accommodating portion 523 falls from the left side of the front door lower portion 104 to the floor. Further, the left wall 522 is generally higher on the left side than on the right side, and on the left end side of the left wall 522, the front side is lower than the rear side.

[Other modifications]
In the first and second embodiments, the reinforcing portion is constituted by the reinforcing rib, but may be a reinforcing portion other than the reinforcing rib. For example, a member harder than the member constituting the bottom plate, for example, a metal plate or a metal block may be embedded as a reinforcement when the bottom plate is a resin, or the bottom plate may be assembled so as not to break .

Further, the bottom plate portion constituting the medal receiving plate may not be disposed horizontally, and the front wall portion, the right wall portion, the left wall portion, and the lower portion of the front door may not be vertically erected. For example, as shown in FIG. 8B, the medal receiver 600 is configured to include the bottom plate portion 601, the front wall portion 602, and the front door lower portion 104, and the bottom plate portion 601 descends from the front side to the back side. Inclined to the front wall 6
A curved portion may be formed at the lower end portion of 02, and the upper portion of the front door lower portion 104 may be inclined to the front side.

In this case, the curved portion is formed at the lower end portion of the front wall portion 602, whereby the medal can be moved along the slope when scraping the medal from the medal accommodating portion 603, and therefore the scraping of the medal is performed. It can be done easily. In addition, since the upper part of the front door lower part 104 is inclined to the front side, the medals trying to come into contact with the surface of the front door lower part 104 are in a state of so-called front with the upper part facing forward. For this reason, it can suppress that a medal becomes difficult to get stuck to the front door lower part.

Thus, the bottom plate may not be disposed horizontally, and the front wall, the right wall, the left wall,
And the angle of the lower part of the front door may be inclined from the vertical direction. At this time, the horizontal portion may be inclined, for example, so that the front side becomes higher, or may be inclined such that the front side is drawn. Also,
The right side or the left side may be inclined to be lower. Also, for example, the front wall portion may be inclined so that the upper side is on the front side, or may be inclined such that the upper side is on the back side. In addition, the respective inner side surfaces may be inclined by changing the thickness on the upper side and the lower side of each wall portion. Also in this case, each wall may be inclined in either direction. In addition, a curved shape or a chamfered shape may be formed on each connection portion of the bottom plate portion, the front wall portion, the right wall portion, the left wall portion, and the lower portion of the front door.

In the above embodiments, the medal receiver is fixedly attached to the lower part of the front door, but may be provided so as to be movable with respect to the lower part of the front door. For example, the medal receiver may be drawn out, and the housing portion of the pull-out type medal receiver may be formed in the lower part of the front door or the housing, and the medal receiver may be accommodated in the housing portion and made extractable. When the medal receiver is made extractable, by pulling out the medal receiver, it becomes easier to take out the medal housed in the medal receiver.

In addition, a member having a high coefficient of friction may be attached to or applied to the inside of the medal receiving portion of the medal receiving plate. The medal can be easily taken out by increasing the coefficient of friction of the medal receiver of the medal receiver. Moreover, you may provide an unevenness | corrugation in the inner side of the medal | token accommodating part of a medal receiving tray, specifically, a baseplate part, a front wall part, a right wall part, a left wall part, part or all of a front door lower part. Moreover, the uneven | corrugated shape provided in each part may be the same shape, and may be a different shape. Since the bottom plate portion, the front wall portion, the right wall portion, the left wall portion, and a part or the whole of the lower part of the front door are uneven, there is a gap between the medal and the bottom plate portion etc. It can be suppressed that it is difficult to stick to a part or the like. Moreover, since it becomes easy to insert a finger from the gap between the medal and the bottom plate and the like, the medal can be easily grasped.

Alternatively, in place of such asperities, it is possible to form a wave-like portion. By providing the unevenness and the corrugated portion, the medal can be prevented from sticking to the inner side surface of the medal housing portion, and it becomes easy to insert a finger or the like between the medal housing portion and the medal. Therefore, it can be made easy to take out the medals. The direction of the wave when forming the wavy portion may be any direction, and may be the front-rear direction or the left-right direction. Alternatively, it may be diagonal. Moreover, the site | part which raises these friction coefficients, the site | part which forms an unevenness | corrugation, and the site | part which forms a wave part may be collectively formed in one place, or are separated and formed in two or more places. It is also good.

In addition, a member (a front wall portion, a right wall portion, a left wall portion or the like) constituting an outer frame of the medal housing portion may be provided with a hook (an eaves) protruding inside the medal housing portion. By providing such a bridle, it is possible to prevent the medals from jumping out of the medal storage unit. Further, in the above-described modification and the like, an example in which the front wall portion is provided with an inclination is shown, but the inclination may be provided on the lower side of the medal housing portion such as the right wall portion or the left wall portion.

Moreover, although the panel is hold | maintained at the panel holding part, a speaker may be provided in the panel holding part. The speaker may protrude from the panel holding portion, or may be embedded inside from the panel holding portion. In addition, it may be formed flush with the panel holding portion. In addition, when the speaker protrudes from the panel holding portion, the medal receiving plate may protrude to the front side of the speaker, or may protrude only to the back of the speaker. Even when the speaker is provided at the lower part of the front door, the speaker may project from the lower part of the front door to the front side, or may be embedded inside from the lower part of the front door.

In the relationship between the panel holding portion or the speaker and the medal receiver, the medal receiving portion may extend to the front side of the panel holding portion and may be protruded or may be drawn to the back side of the panel holding portion. Further, the medal receiver and the panel holding portion may be flush in the front-rear direction. Similarly, the medal receiver may be extended to the front side of the speaker and may be protruded, or may be drawn to the rear side of the speaker. In addition, the medal receiver and the speaker may be flush in the front-rear direction.

Further, the lower end portion central portion of the panel holding portion may be shaped so as to escape upward than the lower end portion side portion. In this case, in the medal housing portion provided below the panel holding portion, the width between the panel holding portion and the medal housing portion may be increased at the center position in the left-right direction of the medal housing portion mainly scraping the medals. it can. Therefore, the medal can be easily scraped out from the medal housing portion.

In addition, the shape of the bottom plate may be an appropriate shape. For example, the near side may have a substantially trapezoidal shape longer than the back side. Since the bottom plate portion has a trapezoidal shape in which the length on the front side is longer than the length on the back side, the area on the front side of the medal storage portion can be widened, so that the medal can be easily scraped out from the medal storage portion.

Further, the bottom plate portion is integrally formed with the lower portion of the front door. For this reason, for example, when providing a curved portion between the bottom plate portion and the lower part of the front door, the curved portion can be easily provided. Note that
In addition to the bottom plate portion and the lower portion of the front door, the front wall portion, the right wall portion, the left wall portion, and the housing end wall portion are also integrally formed. For this reason, the process at the time of manufacturing a medal receptacle can be decreased. In addition, part or all of the bottom plate portion, the front wall portion, the right wall portion, the left wall portion, the lower portion of the front door, and the like may be integrally formed. The bottom plate, the front wall, the right wall, the left wall, and the lower front door may be formed of a common material or may be formed of different materials. For example, the front door lower portion may be formed of metal and the other portion may be formed of resin. Since the lower part of the front door is made of metal, the durability of the lower part of the front door can be enhanced, and the medal housing portion can be brightened.

The reinforcing plate provided on the upper surface of the bottom plate may be made of other than metal, for example, made of resin, or may be made of wood. Further, the coefficient of friction of the surface of the reinforcing plate provided on the upper surface of the bottom plate portion may be increased, or the surface of the reinforcing plate may be formed as asperities or waves. Also, a sound absorbing structure may be provided or flexibility may be provided to a reinforcing plate or the like provided on the bottom plate portion or the upper surface of the bottom plate portion. By providing the sound absorbing structure, the noise due to the contact of the medal can be reduced. In addition, by providing flexibility, the contact between the bottom plate and the like and the medals or medals can be alleviated, noise can be reduced, and the medal receiver can be prevented from being destroyed.

Moreover, although the front wall part is made into the shape of a straight line or the curve which the center locates in the front, it may be formed in the curve which the center locates in the back. Also, a step may be provided on the front wall portion. For example, the lower level may be located in the back, and the upper level may be provided with the level difference located in the near side. By providing such a step, it is possible to facilitate the scraping of the medals. In particular, when the center is curved to be positioned on the front side, and the lower stage is positioned on the back side and the upper stage is positioned on the front side, the medal storage box is in contact with the center position of the front wall portion. By arranging, it is possible to easily move the medals of the medal storage unit to the medal storage box.

Moreover, the groove part along the front wall part may be formed in the baseplate part in back side vicinity of a front wall part. When such a groove is provided, when the medal is pushed from above with the medal accumulated in the bottom plate, the end of the medal fits in the groove and becomes close to a standing state, so that the medals repel each other. This makes it easy to grasp the medals.

In addition, a mounting plate on which the medal housing box can be mounted may be protruded from the front surface side of the front wall portion. By providing a mounting plate on which the medal storage box can be mounted,
The medal storage box can be easily disposed in front of the front wall. Further, the mounting plate and the hook member may be arranged in parallel.

Moreover, the groove part which mounts the nozzle of a token lending machine may be provided in the right wall part. By providing the groove portion in the right wall portion, the nozzle of the medal lending machine can be reliably guided to the medal storage portion. Also, instead of the groove portion, a nozzle mounting table or the like may be provided. Moreover, you may form the through-hole which a nozzle penetrates in a right wall part.

When the accessory storage unit is provided, the accessory storage unit is provided on the left side of the medal storage unit in the first embodiment, but may be provided on the right side of the medal storage unit or both sides of the medal storage unit May be provided. When the accessory storage unit is provided on both sides of the medal storage unit, many accessories can be placed. Alternatively, small items that are difficult to be mixed, for example, precision machines such as watches and mobile phones, and drinks and the like can be divided.

When the accessory storage unit is provided on the side of the medal storage unit, the outer wall of the accessory storage unit may be formed to a position higher than the accessory storage unit. By forming the outer wall of the accessory storage unit to a position higher than the accessory storage unit, it is possible to make it difficult for the medals overflowing from the medal storage unit to the accessory storage unit to fall to the floor or the like.

When the accessory storage unit is provided at the end of the medal receiving tray, for example, the left end, the front wall may extend to a position where the accessory storage unit is provided, or the accessory storage unit is provided. It may extend beyond the position. Moreover, the position where the accessory storage part was provided may be drawn back from the front wall part. The front wall extends to the position where the accessory holder is provided, and the accessory holder can not get in the way, so that the function of the accessory holder can be prevented. .

Further, the accessory storage unit may be configured by closing the opening of the box-type accessory storage member. The lid that closes the opening of the accessory storage member may be removable. In this case, the accessory holder can be used, for example, as an ashtray. At this time, a notch may be formed on the front surface of the accessory holder. By forming the notch, the notch can be used for a cigarette yard. In addition, the notch may be used as a finger insertion hole when removing the lid member of the accessory storage member.

In this case, the accessory storage member may be rotatable about its horizontal axis at its upper front end. The lid member attached to the small item storage member may be placed horizontally, and the height position thereof may be substantially the same as the height position of the housing end wall portion. The accessory storage member may be fixedly provided on the medal receiver.

When the accessory storage unit is provided, the height of the wall between the accessory storage and the medal storage unit may be lower or higher than the height of the front wall. When the height of the wall is lower than the height of the front wall, when the medal overflows from the medal housing portion, the medal climbs over the wall before it gets over the front wall. Therefore, since it becomes easier for the medals to get over the wall and move to the accessory storage area than for the medals to get over the front wall and fall to the floor, it is possible to suppress the medals from falling to the floor.

Moreover, the transmission structure which transmits the vibration which arises when outputting a sound from a speaker to a medal receptacle may be formed. By transmitting the vibration generated when the sound is output from the speaker to the medal receiver, for example, it is possible to light a medal in a state of being stuck to the lower part of the front door. Therefore, it is possible to easily grasp the medal in the medal housing portion.

Further, the vibration transmitted to the medal receiver may be a vibration other than the vibration by the speaker. For example, the vibration may be generated by the rotation of the reel, or when the vibrator for vibrating the effect switch is provided, the vibration may be generated by the vibrator. Alternatively, the vibration may be generated when operating an operation unit such as a start switch or a stop switch.

In addition, when the speaker is provided in the lower part of the front door, the air blown out from the speaker hits the medals, which makes it possible to prevent the medals from becoming stuck and difficult to pick up, but the outlet from which the air is blown out is other than the speaker It may be For example, when an air blowout device for effect is provided, air may be blown out from such a blowout device toward the medal housing portion. The air blown out toward the medal housing portion may be other than when the sound is output from the speaker or when it is blown out by the effect, and may be, for example, air accompanying the rotation and stop of the reel.

In addition, a speaker may not be provided at the lower part of the front door, or may be provided only on the right side or the left side of the medal payout opening. The position in the lower part of the front door where the speaker is not provided can be used as a space for attaching a certificate or the like. Therefore, for example, when a speaker is not provided on the left side of the medal payout opening, it is possible to attach a certificate or the like to a space on the left side of the medal payout opening. When the lower part of the front door is metallic, the output port of the speaker may be a punching metal. Further, the opening serving as the output port of the speaker may be formed in a wide area at the lower part of the front door. In this case, since the air blown out from the speaker extends to a wide range of the lower part of the front door, it is possible to suppress the medal from being stuck and difficult to be picked up in the wide range of the lower part of the front door.

Further, the height position of the speaker may be shorter than the diameter of the medal from the upper surface of the bottom plate portion. Air is blown out from the speaker when sound is emitted or when it is generated in the case, but the medal is stuck to the lower part of the front door by this air hitting a medal or the like attached to the lower part of the front door. It can suppress becoming difficult.

Further, the medal payout opening provided at the lower part of the front door may be provided at the lower position of the lower part of the front door. In this case, a space can be secured above the medal payout opening. The medal payout opening may have a trapezoidal shape with a wide lower side. In this case, since the area on the lower side where the amount of flowing medals in the medal payout opening is large becomes wide, it is possible to suppress the clogging of the medals. Furthermore, the medals can be distributed to a wide range of the medal housing unit.

In addition, a decoration lamp may be provided on part or all of the front wall, the right wall, the left wall, etc. in the medal receiving plate. By providing the decoration lamps on the front wall, the right wall, the left wall, etc., it is possible to perform effects by the lamps at a position near the player. For this reason, since the effect performed using the lamp can be appealed to the player, the effect can be enhanced.
