However, the circuit box in the conventional pachinko machine is not sufficient in terms of protection from external impacts and wiring connection terminals. For example,
The board storage member as a circuit box described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-15089 is provided in a projecting manner on the back side of the game board. Therefore, at the time of manufacturing, transportation, installation, or maintenance and inspection after installation, there is a danger that other pachinko machines, other members or tools, etc. will collide. Not only deformation and breakage of the box, but also damage to the circuit board and connection terminals, disconnection of the connection terminals, etc.
May become unusable. In addition, actual fair 1-3653
Since the one described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 8 is also in a protruding state, it was similarly easily damaged. Further, in the circuit box described in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 2-98985, the right side of the circuit box (when the pachinko machine is viewed from the front) is opened, and the connection terminals are exposed on the front side of the circuit box. The lower end surface of the circuit box is substantially flush with the lower end surface of the front frame. Therefore, in the configuration of the circuit box, the connection terminal is easily detached, and the connection terminal is easily hit from the lower surface side of the circuit box and is easily damaged. In addition, 3-41
In the circuit box described in Japanese Patent No. 483, the lower side is open and the connection terminal faces, so that this circuit box also has a weak point on the lower side.

When connection is completed, stopper device 1 provided on upper cover 73
02, the stopper piece 102a is slid outward to engage the stopper.

By doing so, the frame control box 70 can be arranged so as not to protrude into the recess on the back side of the game board 24, and the connection terminals CN provided on the circuit board 89 can be provided.
Can be connected upward from below, so that not only the wiring connection work is easy, but also the wiring cords P are not exposed on the back side of the pachinko machine 1. Therefore, the top and sides of the frame control box 70 are protected, so that the frame control box 70 is not deformed or damaged during manufacturing, assembling, transportation, storage, or maintenance and inspection, and the wiring cord is There is no danger of being disconnected by being pulled.

Although the present invention has been described with reference to the embodiment shown in the drawings, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be appropriately implemented without changing the configuration described in the claims. For example, the recess may be formed in any manner as long as it does not compete with other members.

In summary, according to the present invention, one side of the front frame is hinged to the outer frame so as to be openable and closable, a detachable game board is provided on the front frame, and a hitting ball launching device is provided on the front side of the front frame. An operation grip for adjusting the flight distance of the hit ball fired on the game board side is provided, and on the back side of the front frame, a mechanism frame body equipped with a prize ball payout device and a winning ball processing device, mainly a game board Of various devices placed in
It is separate from the game board control board for controlling and mainly
A pachinko machine provided with a frame control box containing a frame control board for controlling various devices provided on the pachinko machine main body side , wherein the frame control box collects winning balls.
Prize ball payout device below the lower edge of the rear cover
And, since it is detachably attached to the position avoiding the winning ball processing device in a state that it is sunk on the back side of the front frame rather than the back of the mechanism frame, the depth dimension of the pachinko machine itself can be kept small, Furthermore, since the size protruding rearward from the rear surface of the mechanism frame is small, the upper and side portions of the frame control box are protected, and deformation and breakage of the frame control box can be prevented. In addition, since the connection terminals are provided at the edge of the board, the wiring process is easy, and the wiring cord after wiring is less likely to float, so that not only the appearance is improved, but also the connection is not dislodged by being caught and practical. Provide high value pachinko machines.
