As described above, in the board 1 provided in the gaming machine according to the present embodiment, among the plurality of electronic components, the first output circuit 11 (upper first output circuit 11A, middle first output circuit 11B, lower first output). The character of “model number 1” described in the circuit 11C) is the lower surface 11L (11AL, 11BL).
, 11CL). Therefore, when the first output circuit 11 is viewed simultaneously from one direction, specifically, from the obliquely downward direction (left obliquely downward direction or right obliquely downward direction), the letters “model number 1” written on the lower surface 11L. Can be visually recognized at a stretch. Therefore, it can be easily confirmed that correct components are attached to the substrate 1.

In addition, these characters are written in an easy-to-read orientation, and the orientation of each character is common. For this reason, in order to visually recognize the first output circuit 11 having the same function as the output circuit and using the same circuit, the “model number” 1 ”can be visually recognized in the same direction. Therefore, it can be easily confirmed that correct components are attached to the substrate 1.

Further, the direction of the characters described in the first output is a specific direction, and the characters of “model number 100” described in the main circuit 10 are also directed in a specific direction. For this reason, when the substrate 1 is viewed from one direction, here obliquely downward, it is displayed on the front surface 10F of the main circuit 10 and the letters “model number 100” and the lower surface 11L of the first output circuit 11. All the characters of “Model No. 1” can be seen in the direction of looking from below the characters. For this reason, "Model No. 100"

For this reason, when confirming the attachment of the main circuit 10 by visually recognizing the characters “model number 100”, the characters “model number 3” can be easily confirmed. Therefore, it can be easily confirmed that correct components are attached to the substrate.

Output circuit 15A, right first input circuit 21A, middle first input circuit 21B, left first input circuit 21C
Indicates that the written characters are in a specific direction. For this reason, when the board | substrate 1 is seen simultaneously from one direction, the character described in these electronic components can be visually recognized at a stretch. Therefore, it is possible to easily confirm together with the main circuit 10 that the correct components are attached to the substrate for more than half of the electronic components on which the characters mounted on the substrate 1 are written.

Further, in the vicinity of the mounting position of the first output circuit 11 on the board member 2, the characters “model number 1” are written. The characters of “model number 1” are the same as the characters written on the lower surface 11L of the first output circuit 11. Therefore, the first output circuit 11 is checked by checking the characters of “model number 1” in the vicinity of the mounting position of the first output circuit 11 on the board member 2 and the lower surface 11L of the first output circuit 11, respectively. It can be easily confirmed that it is attached to the correct position in 2.

As shown in FIG. 9, the letter “” is made smaller than the letter “model number 1” written on the lower surface 11 </ b> L of the first output circuit 11. For this reason, even when a large number of electronic components are arranged on the board member 2, more characters corresponding to each electronic component can be written on the board member 2.

Further, in the board 1 provided in the gaming machine according to the present embodiment, the same type of circuit is used for the third output circuit 13 and the first input circuit 21. Therefore, the third output circuit 13 and the first
There is a possibility that the input circuit 21 is easily mistaken. In this regard, in the substrate 1 of the present embodiment, the third output circuit 13 and the first input circuit 21 are mounted on the substrate member 2 so that they can be distinguished from each other. Specifically, the characters “model number 3” displayed on the third output circuit 13 are described in a direction that is difficult to read, and the characters “model number 3” displayed on the first input circuit 21 are described in an easy-to-read direction. Thus, the characters “model number 3” and “model number 3” are reversed. For this reason,
Although the same “model number 3” characters are written on the third output circuit 13 and the first input circuit 21, the third output circuit 13 and the first input circuit 21 can be easily identified, It can be easily confirmed that correct parts are attached.

In addition, when a model number or the like is written on an electronic component, the model number is usually written at a predetermined position in the electronic component. In this case, the direction of the characters written on the electronic component can be changed simply by changing the direction of the electronic component. Therefore, the “model number 3” described in the third output circuit 13 and the first input circuit 21 is used.
Can be easily changed. In particular, when the electronic component has a symmetric shape or a shape close to a symmetric shape, the electronic component can be mounted in a state in which the direction is changed with respect to the same or approximate region.

Further, the circuit components used as the third output circuit 13 and the first input circuit 21 are used in both the output circuit and the input circuit, and although their appearance is approximate, their uses are greatly different. In this regard, the third output circuit 13 and the first input circuit 21 can be distinguished from the appearance by changing the direction of the displayed characters, so that the electronic components used for signal input and the signal output can be used. It is possible to easily distinguish electronic components having different uses such as used electronic components.

For this reason, it is possible to easily distinguish the first input circuit 21 in which the written characters are oriented in an easy-to-read direction. Therefore, different types of electronic components such as an output circuit and an input circuit can be easily distinguished, and it can be easily confirmed that correct components are attached to the board.

The left second output circuit 12C and the third output circuit 13 are mounted on the substrate 1 so as to be close to each other. Therefore, the output circuit (the left second output circuit 12C and the third output circuit 13)
And the input circuit (first input circuit 21) can be easily distinguished from each other, and it can be easily confirmed that the correct component is attached to the board.

Further, in the board 1 provided in the gaming machine according to the present embodiment, the first resistance element 31 to the eighth resistance element 38 are provided on the board 1, and the first resistance element 31 to the eighth resistance element 38 are respectively provided. The first segment display unit 51 to the fourth segment display unit 54 are connected. The 1st segment display part 51-the 4th segment display part 54 are the devices which display a role ratio, and the numerical value displayed on the 1st segment display part 51-the 4th segment display part 54 is very high importance. It is a numerical value. As an electronic component connected to a device that displays such a highly important numerical value, it is necessary to more surely prevent unauthorized replacement or incorrect installation. In this respect, the same electronic component (resistance element) is used for each of the first resistance element 31 to the eighth resistance element 38.
The performance of the resistance element, specifically, the resistance value is displayed by the first line L1 to the fourth line L4 as the first color code CC1. The second resistor element 32 to the eighth resistor element 38 have the same first color code CC1 (first line L1 to fourth line) as the first resistor element 31.
Line L4) is attached, which means that the performance is the same.

Here, in the first resistance element 31 to the eighth resistance element 38, the first lines L1 to L4 are mutually connected.
The lines L4 are arranged so as to be arranged on a straight line, and the directions of predetermined marks are common. For this reason, even if a part of the first resistive element 31 to the eighth resistive element 38 is replaced or there is a wrong mounting, it is easy to find those resistive elements in relation to other resistive elements. be able to. Therefore, as a correct part. It can be easily confirmed that the first resistance element 31 to the eighth resistance element 38 are attached to the substrate 1.

Also, the first line L1 to the fourth line L attached to the first resistance element 31 to the eighth resistance element 38.
Reference numeral 4 denotes a mark indicating the performance (resistance value) of the first resistance element 31 to the eighth resistance element 38. For this reason, it can be easily confirmed whether or not the first resistance element 31 to the eighth resistance element 38 are attached with the correct performance resistance element.

Also, the first line L1 to the fourth line L attached to the first resistance element 31 to the eighth resistance element 38.

8 is arranged. For this reason, the first line L1 to the fourth line L4 attached to the first resistance element 31 to the eighth resistance element 38 can be easily compared.

Further, the first color code CC1 (the first color code attached to the first resistance element 31 to the eighth resistance element 38)
Line L1 to fourth line L4) and the second color code CC attached to the different performance resistor element 41
2 (fifth line L5 to eighth line L8) have different colors, but the first line L1 and the fifth line L5, the second line L2 and the sixth line L6, the third line L3 and the seventh line. The line L7, the fourth line L4, and the eighth line L8 are arranged on a straight line. For this reason, although the performance and application differ in the 1st resistive element 31-the 8th resistive element 38, and the different performance resistive element 41, the comparison of the color code can be performed easily. as a result,
It can be easily confirmed whether or not a resistance element having the correct performance is attached.

In addition, when a plurality of resistance elements having the same performance are packaged, the color codes are usually housed in the case in a state where the color codes are aligned. When mounting the packaged resistance elements on the substrate 1, the first color code CC1 has a common orientation as in the first resistance element 31 to the eighth resistance element 38 of the present embodiment. The mounting operation of the plurality of resistance elements can be simplified.

Moreover, in the board | substrate 1 which concerns on this embodiment, the 2nd output circuit 12-the 5th output circuit 15, and the 1st
In the input circuit 21, characters “model number 2” to “model number 5” and “model number 3” are written on the front surfaces 12F to 15F and 21F, respectively. In addition, on the front surface 10F of the main circuit 10, “model number 1

For this reason, when the characters “model number 100” on the front surface 10F of the main circuit 10 are visually recognized, they are described on the second output circuit 12 to the fifth output circuit 15 and the front surfaces 12F to 15F and 21F of the first input circuit 21. Furthermore, the characters “model number 2” to “model number 5” and “model number 3” can be easily recognized. Therefore, it can be easily confirmed that correct components are attached to the substrate.

Further, the second output circuit 12 to the fifth output circuit 15 and the front surfaces 12F to 1 of the first input circuit 21.
Both 5F and 21F and the front surface 10F of the main circuit 10 are surfaces facing the same direction as the mounting surface of the board member 2 on which these electronic components are mounted. For this reason, by looking at the mounting surface of the board member 2, the second output circuit 12 to the fifth output circuit 15, the front surfaces 12F to 15F and 21F of the first input circuit 21, and the front surface 10F of the main circuit 10 are described. This makes it easier to see the letters at the same time. Therefore, it can be easily confirmed that correct components are attached to the substrate.

Next, a modified example of the present invention will be described. FIG. 10 is an enlarged perspective view of a main part of a modified substrate. As shown in FIG. 10, this modification is the same as the above embodiment except that another main circuit 110 is mounted on the board member 2 instead of the main circuit 10 shown in FIG. 1.
