DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a slot machine, and more particularly, to a slot machine which is attached to a front door and has a feature in a display device having a built-in light source.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, many slot machines as shown in FIG. 5 have been provided as one of the medal game machines. The slot machine is a game machine having three or more rotatable rotating bodies, and having a game property to stop the rotating rotating body so that a pattern drawn on the rotating body becomes a specific combination, It is formed to have a box-shaped box 10 and a front door 11 attached to the front of the box 10.

In the front door 11 of a slot machine, a torso must be located near the center thereof. For this reason, the lamp device which provides information on the progress of the game or the like and decorates the game machine itself has been located above or below the torso. The configuration of a conventional lamp device will be described with reference to FIG.

[0004] A frame 10 forming the front door 11 and a lamp device mounted on the upper portion of the frame 10 are formed. This lamp device is a frame-shaped body that is directly attached to the frame body 10 and has a space frame 20 having a fine divided space, a lamp board 21 having fixing holes corresponding to the divided space of the space frame 20, and a lamp board 21 having the same. A socket 22 to be fixed, a lamp 23 to be fixed to the socket 22, a lamp barrier 24 for protecting the lamp 23, a light-transparent plate-shaped upper panel 25 located outside the lamp barrier 24, and Lamp board 21 and lamp barrier 2 surrounding panel 25
4 and a lamp lens 26 fixed to the space frame 20, an upper panel 25, a lamp barrier 24, and a panel frame 27 for fixing the lamp board 21 to the space frame 20 together with the lamp lens 26. Was something.

That is, in the conventional slot machine formed as described above, the lamp device is directly fixed to the front door 11, and the front door 11 is provided with a box 10 forming the slot machine body. It was fixed to.

[0006]

However, the conventional slot machine described above has the following problems. First, it is troublesome to repair the display device. For example, to replace the lamp 23 when the lamp 23 burns out, first, the panel frame 27 is
Then, the lamp lens 26 is removed from the space frame 20, and the socket 22 is removed from the lamp board 2.
The lamp 23 had to be replaced by pulling it out of the lamp.

On the other hand, when changing the pattern of the slot machine, the front door 11 is often replaced. in this case,
Since the space frame 20 of the display device is formed integrally with the frame body 10, when the frame body 10 is replaced, the space frame 20 must also be replaced inevitably, and accordingly, the entire lamp device must be replaced. Had to be done. For this reason, there was a problem that an economic burden was large.

[0008] Furthermore, since the number of constituent parts of the lamp device is large even during assembly at the time of shipping, there is a problem that it takes a considerable time to attach them. There has been a demand for a slot machine in which the assembly structure of the lamp device is simplified, but such a slot machine has not existed conventionally. It is an object of the present invention to provide a slot machine in which a lamp device is formed independently of a front door and in which an assembly structure of the lamp device is simplified.

[0009]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the embodiments shown in FIGS. Here, FIG. 1 is a side view showing a slot machine of one embodiment of the present invention. FIG.
FIG. 2 is a partially enlarged side view of a lamp device used in the slot machine of one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 3 is a partially enlarged side view of a lamp device used in the slot machine of one embodiment of the present invention, and shows a mounted state.
FIG. 4 is a partially enlarged plan view of a lamp device used in the slot machine of one embodiment of the present invention.

The slot machine of this embodiment has a box-shaped box 30 and a front door 31 attached to the front of the box 30.
Formed with a preparative, on side of the front door 31, the front door 31
Apart from this, a lamp device directly fixed to the box 30 is provided. The lamp device includes a lamp body 40 and a lamp body receiving member 50. The lamp body receiving member 50 is
The catch base 51 is fixed to both side walls of the cylinder 0 and a catch portion 52 fixed to the catch base 51 and forming a spindle-shaped concave portion.

The overall width of the lamp body 40 is the same as the width of the box body 30 of the slot machine. The lamp body 40 includes a frame-shaped lamp base 43, a center lamp 41 and two wing lamps 42 fixed to the lamp base 43, and a board base 4 fixed inside the lamp base 43.
4, an insertion end base 48 fixed to the substrate base 44 on the side opposite to the wing lamp 42, and a spindle-shaped insertion end 49 fixed to the tip of the insertion end base 48.

Although not shown, the center lamp 41 and the two wing lamps 42 have lamps for lighting and blinking. The insertion end 49 is adapted to the catch portion 52 formed as a concave portion.
An assembling procedure of the slot machine of the present embodiment will be described.

First, the front door 31 is fixed to the frame 30.
Subsequently, the lamp body 40 is fixed to the lamp body receiving member 50. That is, the insertion end 49 of the insertion end base 48 fixed to the lamp body 40 is inserted into the catch portion 52 of the catch base 51 of the lamp body receiving member 50. Then, the lamp body 40 is fixed to the frame body 30 and can function as a lamp device. That is, the center lamp 41 and the wing lamp 42 can be turned on and off.

It is easy to remove the lamp body 40 from the lamp body receiving member 50. Subsequently, effects of the present embodiment will be described. The ramp device was formed independently of the front door 31, and a slot machine with a simplified assembling structure of the ramp device could be provided. According to such a slot machine, labor required for repairing a failure in the display device is reduced. For example, when the lamp burns out, the lamp body 40 may be removed from the lamp body receiving member 50 and the lamp incorporated in the center lamp 41 may be replaced. It became.

Further, when changing the pattern of the slot machine, even if the front door 11 is replaced, the lamp device is formed separately from the front door 31, so that it is not necessary to replace the lamp device. The overall burden is small. Further, the assembling of the lamp device at the time of shipment has been simplified, and the assembling time has been reduced.

[0020]

According to the slot machine of the first aspect,
For example, since the lamp device is formed independently of the front door and the lamp device is formed by the lamp body and the lamp body receiving member, it is possible to provide a slot machine in which the lamp body is detachable .
