To do. In addition, if there are too many balls to be stored in the ball box, a new ball box is obtained and stored. When a large number of balls are played, they are stored in a large number of ball boxes. A box containing these balls is placed on the floor near the seat.

  In pachinko parlors, appealing good appearance and vibrancy is the most important business measure, as it recognizes customers as good stores that can expect a lot of appearance.

  Conventionally, a play cart is one or more times larger than a large ball box, so it may not be placed near the seat. Especially in pachinko halls where the space between seats and islands is narrow, it is difficult because there is no space. At least it is not possible to place a play cart in all the seats adjacent to the left and right rear.

  In addition, when carrying a ball box on a play cart and transporting it to the counter, there are many obstacles such as the passage between the islands being narrow and other play carts and player's luggage being placed, so as not to touch these obstacles It is difficult to carry, and there is a problem that it takes a great deal of physical and mental power, such as moving obstacles and paying close attention.

  Therefore, the present invention makes it possible to appeal to the best sales strategy, which is the most important sales measure, and a vibrant shop, which can be placed in the vicinity of the seat without any hindrance, and transports the ball box to the counter without touching obstacles. It is another object of the present invention to provide a play cart that can be used at a low cost and is easy to handle.

  The play cart of the present invention has a shape that approximates the shape of the play cart in order to be able to appeal a good ball and to obtain the maximum compactness.

  As a specific means, a play cart in which a plurality of wheels or balls or casters are fixed as a moving means on the lower surface of the ball box.

  Or as another means, it is set as the trolley | bogie for games by which a several wheel or a ball | bowl or a caster is fixed to the lower surface of the storage container of the shape approximated to a ball box as a moving means.

  More preferably, the ball box loaded on the play cart does not sink too much into the play cart, and the image is as if the ball box is loaded on the ball box containing a large amount of balls. It is preferable to provide a receiving plate for loading and holding the ball box at the opening of the play cart.

  According to the play cart of claim 1 of the present invention, the play cart is loaded on the play cart with the shape of the play cart having the same shape as that of the play box, in which the moving means is simply installed on the lower surface of the play box. For example, a customer thinks that a ball box is loaded on top of a ball box, and as a result, it is possible to appeal a vibrant store with the image of a good ball that is one box larger. In addition, because of the compactness in which the width and length of the play cart are approximately the same size as the ball box, the play cart can be placed near the seat, and the ball box is loaded. At the same time, by placing it near the seat here, as mentioned above, a very strong appearance and a lively image are created, and it is recognized as a good store where a large amount of appearance can be expected, and the biggest sales measure Is obtained. Furthermore, the ball box can be transported to the counter without touching the obstacle. Moreover, since it consists of the minimum number of parts, quality, control and productivity can be improved, and it can be supplied at low cost.

  According to the play cart of claim 2, by the shape of the play cart having a shape approximating that of a ball box, the moving means is simply installed on the lower surface of the storage container on which the ball box can be loaded in a shape approximating that of the ball box.

  Referring to FIGS. 1 to 4, the play cart 1 is configured by a moving means 3 installed on the lower surface of a ball box 2. Various moving means 3 are conceivable, but commercially available casters are reasonable because a wide variety of casters using wheels and balls are sold at low cost. Four selected casters are fixed to the ball box 2 by the fixing means 4. There are various fixing means 4 such as ultrasonic welding, adhesive, double-sided tape, etc., but there is no problem with a general-purpose method of making a mounting hole in a ball box and fixing with a bolt and nut. Of the four casters, if one of the front and rear sets (two) is fixed so that the axle does not bend, and the remaining one is a rotary that allows the axle to bend, the straight path and the turnability can be achieved in a narrow path. It is preferable because it can move accurately.
