Description

従来から制御基板へ不正にアクセスされないように、セキュリティを高めた基板ケースを備える遊技機が知られている（例えば、特許文献１参照）。このような基板ケースは、壊さない限り制御用ＲＯＭを交換できないように構成されている。 Conventionally, gaming machines have been known that are equipped with a board case with enhanced security to prevent unauthorized access to the control board (see, for example, Patent Document 1). Such board cases are configured so that the control ROM cannot be replaced unless the board case is destroyed.

ところで、このような基板ケースは、制御基板へのアクセスのみならず、制御基板に実装された遊技の制御を行う電子部品（例えば、ＣＰＵ（Central Processing Unit）チップ）に対するセキュリティを高めることが求められている。Incidentally, such board cases are required to not only provide access to the control board, but also to increase security for the electronic components (e.g., a CPU (Central Processing Unit) chip) that are mounted on the control board and control the game.

本発明は、このような点に鑑みてなされたものであり、遊技の制御を行う制御部品に対する不正を防止すると共に、その制御部品に不正が行われたことを早期に発見することが可能な遊技機を提供することを目的とする。 The present invention has been made in consideration of the above points, and aims to provide a gaming machine that prevents fraudulent acts against the control parts that control the game, and makes it possible to detect fraudulent acts against the control parts at an early stage.

遊技の制御に関わる所定の電子部品（例えば、ＣＰＵチップ６１１）が実装された制御基板（例えば、主制御基板６１０）と、A control board (e.g., a main control board 610) on which predetermined electronic components (e.g., a CPU chip 611) related to game control are mounted;
前記制御基板を収容する透明な基板ケース（例えば、主基板ケース６２０）と、を備え、A transparent board case (e.g., a main board case 620) that houses the control board;
前記基板ケースは、The substrate case is
前記所定の電子部品に対向する箇所が前記所定の電子部品側に凹となる面落ち部（例えば、面落ち部６４３）と、a recessed portion (e.g., recessed portion 643) whose portion facing the predetermined electronic component is recessed toward the predetermined electronic component;
前記面落ち部に連続し、前記所定の電子部品の第１の側面と第２の側面とのそれぞれに対向する位置に、前記面落ち部の底部（例えば、底部６４３ａ）に平行な断面形状がコ字状に形成された２つの突出片（例えば、突出片６６９）と、two protruding pieces (e.g., protruding piece 669) having a U-shaped cross section parallel to a bottom (e.g., bottom 643 a) of the fallen surface portion, the protruding pieces (e.g., protruding piece 669) being continuous with the fallen surface portion and located at positions facing the first side surface and the second side surface of the predetermined electronic component, respectively;
前記面落ち部を有する第１ケース（例えば、上ケース６２２）と、前記制御基板における前記所定の電子部品が実装される面と反対側の面に対向する第２ケース（例えば、下ケース６２１）と、を有し、a first case (e.g., an upper case 622) having the recessed portion, and a second case (e.g., a lower case 621) facing a surface of the control board opposite to a surface on which the predetermined electronic components are mounted,
前記第１ケースは、前記第２ケースに対して前記面落ち部が形成された面に略平行な第１方向（例えば、左右方向）にスライドさせることで前記第２ケースに係合され、the first case is engaged with the second case by sliding the first case relative to the second case in a first direction (e.g., a left-right direction) that is substantially parallel to a surface on which the chamfered portion is formed,
前記２つの突出片は、前記第１方向に平行な直線上に配されているThe two protruding pieces are arranged on a straight line parallel to the first direction.
