Description

  The present invention relates to a tamper-proof cover for a slot machine power supply box. Specifically, the present invention relates to a cover for preventing unauthorized operation of a power supply box which prevents unauthorized operation of a setting key for adjusting the probability of hitting a slot.

  Conventionally, a slot machine inserts coins, stops three rotating drums by a stop button provided on each, and pays out coins when the picture drawn on each drum is aligned. Electronic control Thus, the number of coins determined by the type of pattern is paid out from the coin payout opening by centrifugal force.

  Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, the slot machine is provided with a power box 105 in which various control switches such as a power switch 101, a reset button 102, a coin recovery switch 103, and a setting key switch 104 are housed.

  The operations of the power switch 101, the reset button 102, the coin collection switch 103, and the like provided in the power box 105 are performed by an employee by opening the door of the slot machine. ON / OFF operation for controlling the probability of hitting a slot is performed by a key managed only by the person in charge of the card.

  In other words, by turning on the setting key switch and operating the setting operation buttons, etc., each of the slot payout probabilities for each slot machine can be controlled, for example, in six stages. After that, by setting the setting key switch to OFF, the set payout probability cannot be changed.

  In recent years, however, hall employees have illegally operated using keys that are illegally obtained by customers, and customers illegally operate various control switches provided on the power supply box through the wire through the gaps in the doors. Action is increasing.

  In order to prevent such an illegal act, for example, there is a setting key illegal operation preventing tool as shown in FIG. The setting key unauthorized operation prevention device 106 is provided with a shielding plate portion 108 configured to shield the insertion hole 107 of the setting key switch 104 of the power supply box 105, and a key managed only by the person in charge is inserted into the key cylinder 109 and rotated. As a result, the shielding plate portion 108 rotates to either the left or right about the base end of the shielding plate portion 108, and thereby the shielding plate portion 108 is operated to shield and release the insertion hole 107 ( (See Patent Document 1).

Utility Model Registration No. 3089933 Specification

  However, in the setting key unauthorized operation prevention tool, it is possible to prevent an unauthorized operation of the setting key by blocking the insertion hole of the setting key switch. Malfunctions such as a malfunction of probability and a short circuit of wiring by intruding a piano wire into the power supply box are prevalent.

  In addition, there are things that cover the power box with a shielding plate such as a stainless steel plate to prevent the invasion of piano wires etc. In this case, the shielding plate must be removed every time the setting key is operated. It becomes. Furthermore, when verifying whether or not an illegal act has been performed by visual recognition, the power supply box is shielded by the shielding plate, so that verification by visual recognition cannot be performed, and the shielding plate must be removed each time.

  The present invention was devised in view of the above points, and is a slot machine power supply capable of preventing unauthorized actions by shielding the power supply box with a cover with a lid and easily operating the power supply box. The object is to provide a cover for preventing unauthorized operation of the box.

  In order to achieve the above object, an unauthorized operation prevention cover for a slot machine power supply box according to the present invention covers a peripheral portion of the surface of the power supply box in a cover that covers various switches installed in the power supply box of the slot machine. And a cover frame body portion that is open so that various switches of the power supply box are exposed, and an open / close door that is pivotably mounted in the opening of the cover frame body portion.

  Here, by covering the front face of the power supply box with the cover frame body and the opening / closing door, it is possible to prevent unauthorized operation of various switches and unauthorized entry into the power supply box due to the intrusion of a piano wire or the like.

  Further, it is possible to prevent an illegal act by an insider by providing a key cylinder that locks / unlocks the door with a specific key.

  In addition, since at least the opening / closing door is formed of a transparent member, it is possible to perform a visual check through the transparent member without opening the opening / closing door every time periodic inspection is performed.

  The slot machine power supply box tampering prevention cover of the present invention covers the entire operation of the power supply box and provides an open / close door to prevent illegal acts caused by intrusion from outside such as a piano wire when the open / close door is closed. In addition, when performing a normal setting operation, the setting operation can be easily performed by opening the door.

  In addition, by forming the opening / closing door with a transparent member, it is possible to verify whether an illegal act is performed by visual recognition without opening the opening / closing door.

  Furthermore, by providing a key exclusively for the person in charge at the opening and closing door, it is possible to prevent fraud by internal crimes.
