Description

The present disclosure relates to studs installed between adjacent gaming machines.

Conventionally, studs arranged between adjacent game machines have a plate-shaped partition that can be pulled out in front of the game machine, and the partition can be pulled out as needed to create a space between players. Those configured to be partitioned are known (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2012-11140

In this type of stud, the partition is composed of two partition plates that are housed so as to overlap the inside of the stud, and in the one described in Patent Document 1, one partition plate is the other. It is rotatably attached to the partition plate around the support shaft.

Therefore, according to the conventional stud, one partition plate can be further pulled out from the other partition plate after the entire partition portion is pulled out from the front surface of the stud.
However, when the partition portion is composed of two partition plates, it is necessary to increase the length of the two partition plates in the pull-out direction in order to increase the amount of the partition portion pulled out from the front surface of the studs. There was a problem that the whole became large and it took time and effort to transport and install it.

One aspect of the present disclosure is a stud that is arranged between adjacent game machines and for retracting a plate-shaped partition so that the entire stud is made smaller to improve workability during transportation and installation work. The purpose is to improve.

A plate-shaped side wall portion 14 for connecting the frames is provided. The side wall portion 14 is partially perforated in order to reduce the weight of the main body portion 10.

The frame bodies 11, 12, 13 and the side wall portions 14 are integrally formed by, for example, press-molding a metal plate, and the first rail 51 is provided on the upper and lower frame bodies 11, 12, respectively. ing.

In the upper and lower frame bodies 11 and 12, the end edge portion on the side opposite to the side wall portion 14 is bent so as to face the side wall portion 14, and the pair of upper and lower first rails 51 are bent. It is fixed (screwed) to each edge.

Next, a pair of upper and lower fitting portions 51A that are slidably fitted to the pair of upper and lower first rails 51 fixed to the main body portion 10 are fixed to the first partition plate 21.
The fitting portion 51A is fixed via a fixing member 55 fixed (screwed) to the upper and lower end edge portions of the first partition plate 21, and the fitting portion 51A is the first partition in the fixing member 55. It is fixed (screwed) to the outside of the upper and lower edges of the plate 21. This is to make the distance between the upper and lower fitting portions 51A correspond to the distance between the first rails 51 fixed to the main body portion 10.

Further, the upper and lower fitting portions 51A have a long shape having substantially the same length as the first rail 51, and are fixed to the upper and lower fixing members 55 to the upper and lower frames 11 and 12 of the main body portion 10, respectively. It is provided so as to face the upper and lower first rails 51.

Further, the first rail 51 is fixed to the upper and lower frames 11 and 12 of the main body portion 10 so that the groove for slidably fitting the fitting portion 51A faces the first partition plate 21 side. ing.
Therefore, the first rail 51 and the fitting portion 52A are arranged between the upper and lower frame bodies 11 and 12 of the main body portion 10 and the fixing members 55 provided above and below the first partition plate 21. Become.

Furthermore, the upper and lower fitting portions 51A are covered with the tips of the fitting portion 51A and the fixing member 55 to protect the upper and lower corners of the first partition plate 21, and further, the first partition is further provided. A protective cover 56 made of synthetic resin is provided to cover the tip end portion of the first rail 51 when the plate 21 is in the storage position.

Next, the second rail 52 is provided at the upper end and the lower end of the plate surface of the first partition plate 21 opposite to the first rail 51, respectively, and is provided with the first partition plate 21 of the second partition plate 22. A pair of upper and lower fitting portions 52A that are slidably fitted to the second rail 52 are fixed to the facing surfaces.

Further, in the second partition plate 22, the third rail is located above and below the plate surface opposite to the fitting portion 52A so as to be located inside the fitting portion 52A at the end of the plate surface, respectively. 53 is fixed.

A pair of upper and lower fitting portions 53A that are slidably fitted to the third rail 53 are fixed to the surface of the third partition plate 23 facing the second partition plate 22. The length of the third partition plate 23 in the vertical direction is shorter than that of the second partition plate 22, and the fitting portion 53A is fixed to the upper and lower ends of the plate surface of the third partition plate 23.

That is, in the present embodiment, the distance between the first rails 51, the distance between the second rails 52, and the distance between the third rails 53 are the longest between the first rails 51 and the third rails 53. The interval is the shortest. Correspondingly, the length of the first partition plate 21 including the fixing member 55 in the vertical direction is the longest, and the length of the third partition plate 23 in the vertical direction is the shortest.

As a result, the overall size of the partition portion 20 can be reduced as compared with the case where the slide rails are provided by matching the lengths of the partition plates 21 to 23 in the vertical direction.
Further, the fitting portions 52A and 53A have a long shape having substantially the same length as the corresponding second rail 52 and third rail 53, similarly to the fitting portion 51A.

Then, by covering the tips of the fitting portions 52A and 53A on the pull-out side tip portions of the upper and lower fitting portions 52A and 53A, the upper and lower corner portions of the second partition plate 22 and the third partition plate 23 are formed. Protective covers 57 and 58 made of synthetic resin are provided to protect and cover the tip portions of the second rail 52 and the third rail 53 when the second partition plate 22 and the third partition plate 23 are in the storage position.

Therefore, when the partition portion 20 is housed in the main body portion 10, as shown in FIG. 1A, the protective covers 56, 57, are placed on the front side of the main body portion 10 and on the upper end side and the lower end side of the partition portion 20. 58 will be arranged in order from the outside.

As a result, when the partition portion 20 is in the stored state, the opening of the main body portion 10 from which the partition portion 20 is pulled out is covered with the protective covers 56, 57, 58, and the opening portion of the main body portion 10 is also protected.

Next, the front panel 30 is attached to the front side of the upper and lower frames 11 and 12 constituting the main body 10 so as to close the front surface of the main body 10.
The front panel 30 is formed with mounting holes (in other words, openings) corresponding to the objects to be contained in the main body 10, such as the partition 20, the seat holder 41, the drink holder 43, and the connector 45.

Further, the upper and lower ends of the front panel 30 are also provided with fixing holes (long holes) for screwing to the fixing metal fittings 32 (see FIG. 4) for fixing between adjacent game machines.
Further, a plate-shaped blindfold member 27 is provided at the rear end of the first partition plate 21 arranged on the main body 10 side when the partition 20 is pulled out from the main body 10.

The blindfold member 27 closes the opening of the front panel 30 that is opened when the second partition plate 22 and the third partition plate 23 are pulled out of the main body portion 10, and the game ball enters the main body portion 10 through the opening. This is to prevent foreign substances such as those from entering.

Further, even if the blindfold member 27 is provided in this way, foreign matter such as a game ball may enter the main body 10 through an opening formed by a mounting hole provided in the front panel 30.

Then, if a foreign substance enters the main body 10, it becomes an obstacle when the partition 20 is stored in the main body 10, and the partition may not be stored well in the main body. Therefore, the partition portion may not be stored well in the main body 10. Is provided with a discharge port 15 for discharging foreign matter that has entered the main body 10.

As shown in FIG. 4, the discharge port 15 is a corner portion where the lower frame body 12 and the rear frame body 13 constituting the main body portion 10 are connected, and is the side to which the first rail 51 is fixed. It is provided on the opposite side (that is, the side wall portion 14 side).

As a result, in the stud 1 of the present embodiment, even if a foreign substance such as a game ball enters the main body 10, the foreign substance is discharged from the discharge port 15 and the game ball arranged behind the game machine. You will be able to lead to the transport path.

Further, since the discharge port 15 is provided on the side wall portion 14 side at the lower end portion of the rear frame body 13, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the strength of the main body portion 10 by providing the discharge port 15.

Further, since the partition portion 20 is stored in the main body portion 10 via the first rail 51 provided on the lower frame body 12, foreign matter is stored in the main body portion 10 as the partition portion 20 moves during storage. It moves to the rear of the main body 10 along the 1 rail 51, and is more reliably discharged from the discharge port 15.

Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the side wall portion 14 of the main body portion 10 is engaged with the blindfold member 27 in a state where the partition portion 20 is pulled out from the main body portion 10, and the partition portion 20 is retracted in the storage direction. A plurality of storage resistance portions 60 for preventing movement are provided in the vertical direction (two in the present embodiment). The storage resistance portion 60 is composed of, for example, a leaf spring, and in a state where the partition portion 20 is pulled out from the main body portion 10, the partition portion 20 moves to the main body portion 10 side due to vibration of the game machine or the like. Can be prevented.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 5, the blindfold member 27 is brought into contact with the frame 13 behind the main body 10 with the partition 20 housed in the main body 10, and the partition 20 is pulled out. A drawer resistance portion 62 is provided to prevent the movement in the direction.

The drawer resistance portion 62 is composed of, for example, a magnet, and by attracting the blindfold member 27 by a magnetic force, resistance to displacement of the partition portion 20 in the pull-out direction is generated. When the partition portion 20 is housed in the main body portion 10, if the storage resistance portion 60 is configured to engage with the engaging member provided on the third partition plate 23, the storage resistance portion 60 can be pulled out. It can also function as a resistance section.

Next, the seat holder 41 and the drink holder 43 are fixed to the mounting holes of the front panel 30 in the same manner as the connection connector 45, but the respective holders 41 and 43 have a length in the depth direction as compared with the connection connector 45. long.

Therefore, if the connector 45 is simply fixed to the front panel 30, the holders 41 and 43 intrude into the storage space of the partition 20 in the main body 10, and the partition 20 is pulled out or stored. It may get in the way.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, the rear ends of the seat holder 41 and the drink holder 43 are positioned on the frame body 13 behind the main body 10, and these holders 41 and 43 are displaced in the storage space of the partition portion 20. A positioning unit 17 is provided to prevent this from occurring.

As shown in FIG. 5, the positioning portions 17 are provided at two locations in the vertical direction of the frame body 13. The two positioning portions 17 have a cross section in which the side opposite to the side wall portion 14 of the frame body 13 is bent so as to be in contact with the rear end faces of the holders 41 and 43 and the surface facing the side wall portion 14. It is configured as an L-shaped plate.

The edge portion of the positioning portion 17 on the opposite side of the frame body 13 is bent, curved or bent in a direction away from the storage space of the partition portion 20 (in other words, the side wall portion 14).
Therefore, the positioning portion 17 is brought into contact with the rear end faces of the holders 41 and 43 and the facing surfaces of the side wall portions 14, and prevents the holders 41 from being displaced to the storage space side and the rear side of the partition portion 20. Not only that, the partition 20 can be guided to the storage space at the time of storage.

As described above, in the stud 1 of the present embodiment, the partition portion 20 is composed of three partition plates, a first partition plate 21, a second partition plate 22, and a third partition plate 23. The partition plates 21, 22 and 23 are the upper and lower frame bodies 11 and 12 of the main body 10, the upper and lower ends of the first partition plate 21, and the upper end and the second partition plate 22. It can be pulled out in order from the opening of the main body 10 via the first rail 51, the second rail 52, and the third rail 53 provided at the lower end portions, respectively.

Therefore, in the stud 1 of the present disclosure, if the protrusion length is the same from the mounting hole (opening) of the front panel 30 when the entire partition portion 20 is pulled out, the partition portion 20 is housed in the main body portion 10. The length of the stud 1 in the front-rear direction can be made shorter than that of the conventional one. Therefore, according to the stud 1 of the present disclosure, workability during transportation and installation work can be improved as compared with the conventional one.

Further, the first rail 51, the second rail 52, and the third rail 53 are arranged in the vertical direction inside the main body 10, so that the paired first rails 51 are spaced apart from each other, and the second rails 52 are spaced apart from each other. The third rails 53 are arranged so as to be shorter in order.

The fitting portions 51A, 52A, and 53A slidably fitted to the rails 51, 52, and 53 are the upper ends of the first partition plate 21, the second partition plate 22, and the third partition plate 23. It is fixed to the portion and the lower end portion via the fixing member 55 or directly.

Therefore, the length of the first partition plate 21 in the vertical direction including the fixing member 55, the length of the second partition plate 22 in the vertical direction, and the length of the third partition plate 23 in the vertical direction are shortened in order. This makes it possible to reduce the size of the studs by reducing the size of the entire partition.

Further, when the partition portion 20 is pulled out from the main body portion 10, the weight of the entire partition portion 20 is applied to the fitting portion 51A of the first partition plate 21, but the partition portion 20 is fixed to the first partition plate 21. The fitting portion 51A is provided via the member 55.

Therefore, the fitting portion 51A can be more firmly fixed to the first partition plate 21 as compared with the second partition plate 22 and the third partition plate 23, and the partition portion 20 is pulled out. It is possible to prevent the fitting portion 51A from being deformed or disengaged from the first rail 51 due to the load applied at that time.

Further, the first partition plate 21, the second partition plate 22, and the third partition plate 23 are provided with protective covers 56, 57, and 58 that cover the tip portions of the fitting portions 51A, 52A, and 53A in the pull-out direction, respectively. There is.
