Description

【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、スロットマシン、パチンコ機などのゲーム機の前扉（前枠）を筐体（本体枠）に対し開閉可能に取り付ける着脱式のゲーム機用蝶番に関する。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
従来、パチンコ機などのゲーム機の前枠を本体枠に対し開閉自在に取り付ける蝶番として、上部に取り付けられる上部蝶番と下部に取り付けられる下部蝶番からなる構造の蝶番が、通常使用されている。この蝶番は、上部蝶番、下部蝶番共に固定部と可動部とに分かれて形成され、ピンと軸受部の嵌合により可動部側が固定部側に対し回動可能に支持される。つまり、上部蝶番の固定部は本体枠の上角部に固定され、上部蝶番の可動部は前枠の上角部に固定され、下部蝶番の固定部は本体枠の下角部に固定され、下部蝶番の可動部は前枠の下角部に固定される。そして、前枠を本体枠に対し取り付ける場合、前枠を持ってその下部蝶番の可動部を本体枠側の固定部にピンと軸受の嵌合により嵌め込み、同時に、その上部蝶番の可動部を本体枠側の固定部にピンと軸受の嵌合により嵌め込む。
【０００３】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
従って、上記のように、前枠を本体枠に対し装着する際には、上角部と下角部に設けた両蝶番のピンと軸受を上下同時に嵌め合わせて行なう必要があり、加えて、ゲーム機の前枠には、各種の機械機器、電気機器が数多く取り付けられているから、前枠の重量は非常に重い。また、これらの前枠は、作業者の手作業により本体枠側に装着されるため、このような前枠の取り付け作業は、かなり難しく、労力を必要とし、ピンと軸受の嵌合が良好にできない場合には、蝶番や他の部材を傷つけてしまう問題があった。
【０００４】
そこで、本発明者らは、蝶番の固定部と可動部の各々において、上部蝶番と下部蝶番を一体に形成し、先ず固定側の下部蝶番に可動側の下部蝶番を、ピンと軸受孔の嵌合によって支持させた状態で、固定側の上部蝶番に対し可動側の上部蝶番のピン又は軸受孔を略水平方向に移動させながら、可動側の上部蝶番を固定側の上部蝶番に嵌め込んで、簡単に組付けることができるゲーム機用蝶番を提案した（例えば下記特許文献１を参照）。

【０００６】
ところで、上記のようなゲーム機用蝶番であっても、例えばスロットマシンの本体のように、その前面が鉛直面に対し、その下部を前方に出し、その上部を後方に引くように傾斜している場合、その前面に装着される扉の蝶番の回動軸も、鉛直軸に対し傾斜したものとなる。このため、その扉を開いた場合、その開度が９０度までの間においては、扉が重力により閉鎖方向の力を受け、自然に閉じてしまうという現象が生じる。
【０００７】
このため、スロットマシンの修理や点検を行う際に、扉を開いておきたい場合には、扉を９０度より僅かに超えて開いた状態として作業を行っていたが、何らかの外力が扉に作用して、扉の開度が９０度以下になった場合、扉が自然に閉じる状態となり、作業中に不用意に扉が閉じてしまうという危険が生じる虞があった。
【０００８】
本発明は、上記の点に鑑みてなされたもので、ゲーム機の前扉と筐体に着脱可能に固定される蝶番の可動部材と固定部材を容易に嵌合して組み付けることができると共に、不用意に扉が閉じてしまうことを防止することができるゲーム機用蝶番を提供することを目的とする。
【０００９】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記目的を達成するために、本発明のゲーム機用蝶番は、ゲーム機の筐体側に固定される固定部材と、固定部材にピンと軸受部との嵌合により回動可能に支持されゲーム機の前扉側に取り付けられる可動部材と、を備え、固定部材は縦長の固定取付板を有しており、固定取付板の上部に上突出支持部が設けられ、固定取付板の下部に下突出支持部が設けられ、可動部材は縦長の可動取付板を有しており、可動取付板の上部に上突出板部が設けられ、可動取付板の下部に下突出板部が設けられたゲーム機用蝶番において、固定部材の上突出支持部に上ピンが下向きに突設され、固定部材の下突出支持部に下ピンが上向きに突設され、可動部材の上突出板部上に固定部材側の上ピンを軸支する軸受部材が設けられ、可動部材の下突出板部上には、固定部材側の下ピンを軸支する軸受孔が設けられると共に、下ピンに嵌合して固定部材に対する可動部材の回動を予め設定した角度または任意の角度で停止させる回動停止部が設けられ、回動停止部の本体は、可動部材の下突出板部に固定されると共に、回動停止部の本体内には固定部材側の下ピンに嵌合・固定される回動停止部材が設けられたことを特徴とする。
【００１０】
ここで、上記回動停止部材は、その外周部に凹部が設けられ、凹部に嵌合して上記可動部材の回動を停止させる弾性部材を回動停止部の本体に固定・配置することができる。
【００１２】
また、上記回動停止部材は、その外周部にゴム状弾性部が設けられ、ゴム状弾性部を押圧して上記可動部材の回動を停止させる押圧部材を回動停止部の本体に固定・配置することができる。
【００１３】
【作用】
このような構成のゲーム機用蝶番は、ゲーム機の筐体の内側に蝶番の固定部材が固定され、前扉の内側に蝶番の可動部材が固定される。
【００１４】
前扉を筐体に対し開閉可能に装着する場合、先ず、前扉を持って可動部材の下突出板部の軸受孔を、筐体側の固定部材の下突出支持部の下ピンに嵌め込む。このとき、下ピンは可動部材の軸受孔の上部に設けた回動停止部内の回動停止部材に嵌合され、下ピンと回動停止部材は一体化される。
【００１５】
次に、その下突出支持部の下ピンを支点にして前扉を少し傾けながら、可動部材の上突出板部の軸受部材を、その固定部材の上突出支持部の上ピンの近傍に近づけ、その上ピンを上突出板部上に進入させ、回動部材を上ピンで押すように動かす。これにより、上ピンは、回動部材の回動によって開口した軸受部材の軸受孔内に滑るように進入する。そして、上ピンが軸受孔内に嵌入した後、回動部材がばね部材の付勢力で元の位置に戻り、軸受孔の切欠き開口部が閉鎖され、上ピンは軸受部材の軸受孔に良好に嵌合し、可動部材は固定部材に対し回動可能に支持される。
【００１６】
前扉を筐体に対し開閉して、蝶番の可動部材を固定部材に対し回動させると、下ピンと回動停止部材に対し回動停止部が回動する。そして、回動停止部材の外周部に設けた凹部に回動停止部の弾性部材が嵌合したとき、可動部材の回動つまり前扉の回動に制動が生じて前扉がその角度位置で停止する。したがって、スロットマシンのように、前扉が筐体に対し傾斜して支持され、重力などで自然に閉じる状態であっても、回動停止部により可動部材つまり前扉が停止し、自然に閉じることはない。また、このような作用を行なう回動停止部材と弾性部材または押圧部材を、回動停止部の本体とカバー部内に収納する構成とすれば、他の部材との干渉などの悪影響は生じず、良好に動作させることができる。
【００１７】
一方、その状態から前扉を開き或いは閉じる場合は、前扉を持って回動させると、弾性部材が弾性変形して、回動停止部材の凹部を乗り越えて前扉は回動する。よって、スロットマシンのように傾斜した本体の前面に取り付けられる扉であって、開放された扉が重力で閉じようとしても、回動停止部材と弾性部材の係合により、扉はその開き角度で保持され、不用意に扉が閉じることは防止される。
【００１８】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の実施の形態を図面に基づいて説明する。図１〜図５はスロットマシンなどのゲーム機の筐体側に固定される蝶番の固定部材１を示している。この固定部材１は、板状の縦長の固定取付板４の上端に上突出支持部２が略水平に形成され、固定取付板４の下端に下突出支持部６が略水平に形成される。さらに、上突出支持部２の先端の下面に上ピン３が下向きに突設され、下突出支持部６の先端の上面に下ピン７が上向きに突設されて構成される。下ピン７の外周部には平坦部が形成され、後述の可動部材１０の下突出板部１６に設けられる回動停止部１９の回動停止部材２０の異形軸孔２０ａに嵌入し、下ピン７が回動停止部材２０と共に回転する構造である。
【００１９】
図５の斜視図に示すように、上突出支持部２と下突出支持部６は、鋼板を略コ字状にまたはＬ形に形成され、その先端に上ピン３と下ピン７を固定することにより、上ピン３と下ピン７つまり蝶番の軸心位置を、できるだけ筐体の左側面寄りに設定している。勿論、上ピン３と下ピン７の軸心位置は、縦長の固定取付板４の平面に沿った１本の軸線上に一致する。また、上突出支持部２においては、後述の可動部材１０側の上突出板部１２の上方に突き出した部分が回動可能な空間を作っている。また、上突出支持部２には、可動部材１０が開動作をしたとき、その回動端で可動部材１０の上突出板部１２の上方に突き出した部分が当たって停止する部分が設けられている。これにより、可動部材１０の最大開放角度を設定し、ここでは略９２度としている。
【００２０】
さらに、固定取付板４の正面側の縁部には、当接壁部５が縁部を正面側に略直角に曲げるように形成され、この当接壁部５は、後述の可動部材１０の可動取付板１１の閉鎖壁部１８に対し、蝶番の閉動作時に当接し、固定部材と可動部材間の隙間をなくし所定の位置関係で閉鎖状態とする。
【００２１】
可動部材１０は、図６〜図１１に示すように、縦長で板状の可動取付板１１の上端に上突出板部１２を水平状に突設し、可動取付板１１の下端に下突出板部１６を水平状に設け、上突出板部１２上には軸受部材１３を固定し、下突出板部１６には下軸受孔１７を穿設して構成される。上突出板部１２上に固定される軸受部材１３は、固定部材１側の上ピン３を嵌入させるために軸受孔１４を設けて形成され、図５に示すように、軸受孔１４はその一部の側壁が切り欠かれ、その切欠き開口部から上ピン３を嵌めこみ可能としている。
【００２２】
下軸受孔１７と軸受部材１３の軸受孔１４の軸心位置は、可動取付板１１の平面に沿った１本の軸線上に一致するように形成され、且つこの軸心位置つまり蝶番の軸位置は、可動部材１０の正面寄りで左側面寄りの角部に位置するように形成される。また、可動取付板１１の縁部には、固定部材１に対し可動部材１０を閉じる方向に回動させたとき、所定の回動位置で停止し、縁部を正面側に曲げた板部として、閉鎖壁部１８が形成される。
【００２３】
さらに、軸受孔１４の切欠き開口部を閉じるために、回動部材１５が回動軸１５ａを軸にして回動可能に軸支される。回動部材１５は、軸受孔１４の切欠き開口部を閉鎖する部分を有するとともに、その閉鎖部分の先端を軸受孔１４の切り欠き開口部に当接させて閉鎖をロックするための当接部１５ｂが回動部材１５の先端に形成されている。
【００２４】
さらに、手動操作により容易に回動できるように、回動部材１５の端部にはレバー操作部が設けられている。回動部材１５の先端に鉤型先端部が設けられる。また、回動部材１５にはばね部材１５ｂが装着され、ばね部材１５ｂは回動部材１５を図１０、図１５の時計方向に付勢している。回動部材１５は、上ピン３の移動力を受けて、回動部材１５が図１０、図１５の反時計方向に回動し、軸受孔１４の切欠き部を開放し、上ピン３を軸受孔１４内に導入するように構成される。
【００２５】
図１０に示すよう、可動部材１０の下部に設けた下突出板部１６上に、固定部材側の下ピン７を軸支する軸受孔１７が設けられ、下ピン７に嵌合して固定部材１に対する可動部材１０の回動を、予め設定した角度で停止させる回動停止部１６が下突出板部１６上に設けられる。この回動停止部１９は、図１１に示すように、可動部材１０の下突出板部１６上にその本体２２が固定され、本体２２内には凹部２２ａが設けられ、その凹部２２ａ内に、固定部材１側の下ピン７に嵌合・固定される円盤状の回動停止部材２０が回転可能に配設される。この回動停止部材２０の外周部には予め扉の開き角度に応じた角度位置に凹部２０ｂが形成されている。さらに、本体２２には、その回動停止部材２０の凹部２０ｂに嵌合して可動部材１０の回動を停止させる弾性部材２１が固定されている。弾性部材２１には凸部２１ａが設けられ、この凸部２１ａを回動停止部材２０の凹部２０Ｂに押し付けるように、弾性部材２１は取り付けられる。また、本体２２の上部にはカバー部２３が覆うように固定ねじ２４を用いて固定される。
【００２６】
上記構成された蝶番の固定部材１は、その固定取付板４に設けた取付孔と固定ねじを使用して、図１４に示すように、ゲーム機の筐体３０の内側の左側面に、その上突出支持部２と下突出支持部６を前方に出して固定される。
【００２７】
一方、蝶番の可動部材１０は、ゲーム機の前扉３１の内側の左側面に、その可動取付板１１とそこに穿設した取付孔及び固定ねじを用いて、その上突出板部１２と下突出板部１６を前扉３１の内側に入れた状態で、縦に固定される。
【００２８】
前扉２１を筐体２０に対し開閉可能に装着する場合、先ず、前扉３１を持ち筐体３０に対し約４５度開いた状態で、可動部材１０の下突出板部１６の下軸受孔１７を、筐体３０側の固定部材１の下突出支持部６の下ピン７に嵌め込む。下軸受孔１７は鋼板に穿設した孔であり、ピンと孔の嵌め合いには多少の間隙があるため、前扉３１は多少傾動可能である。このとき、下ピン７は、可動部材１０の下突出板部１６上の回動停止部１９内の回動停止部材２０の異形軸孔２０ａ内に嵌入し、この回動停止部材２０と一体化される。
【００２９】
次に、その下突出支持部６の下ピン７を支点にして前扉３１を少し傾けながら、可動部材１０の上突出板部１２の軸受部材１３を、その固定部材１の上突出支持部２の上ピン３の近傍に近づけ、その上ピン３を図１５のように、上突出板部１２上の進入路に進入させ、回動部材１５を上ピン３で押すように動かす。これにより、上ピン３は、回動部材１５を図１５（ａ）のようにばね部材１５ｂの付勢力に抗して回動させて、軸受孔１４を開くと共に、回動部材１５の回動によって開口した軸受孔１４内に滑るように進入する。そして、上ピン３が軸受孔１４内に嵌入した後、回動部材１５がばね部材１５ｂの付勢力で元の位置に戻り、軸受孔１４の切欠き開口部が閉鎖され、上ピン３は軸受部材１３の軸受孔１４に嵌合し、可動部材１０は固定部材１に対し回動可能に正常位置に支持される状態となる。
【００３０】
前扉３１を筐体３０に対し開閉して、蝶番の可動部材１０を固定部材１に対し回動させると、下ピン７と回動停止部材２０に対し回動停止部１９の本体２２が回動する。そして、回動停止部材２０の外周部に設けた凹部２０ｂに、回動停止部１９の弾性部材21の凸部２１ａが嵌合したとき、可動部材１０の回動つまり前扉３１の回動に制動が生じて、前扉３１がその角度位置で、例えば回動停止部材２０の凹部２０ｂの位置が扉の開度４５度に形成されている場合、図１７（ｂ）に示すように、前扉３１が４５度の開度で停止する。
【００３１】
したがって、スロットマシンのように、前扉が筐体に対し傾斜して支持され、重力などで自然に閉じる状態であっても、回動停止部１９の作用によって可動部材１０つまり前扉３１がその位置で停止し、保持される。よって、スロットマシンのように、傾斜した本体の前面に取り付けられる扉であって、開放された扉が重力で閉じようとしても、回動停止部材２０と弾性部材２１の係合により前扉３１はその開き角度で保持され、不用意に前扉３１が閉じることは防止される。その状態から、前扉３１を開き或いは閉じる場合は、前扉３１を持って回動させると、弾性部材２１が弾性変形して、その凸部２１ａが回動停止部材２０の凹部２０ｂを乗り越えて回動停止部１９の本体２２側が回動し、前扉３１は回動することができる。
【００３２】
また、このような作用を行なう回動停止部材２０と弾性部材２１は回動停止部１９の本体とカバー部内に収納されているから、他の部材との干渉などの悪影響は生じず、良好に動作させることができる。
【００３３】
蝶番を介して開閉可能に取り付けられた前扉３１は、図１６に示すように、その閉鎖位置では、固定部材１の当接壁部５に可動部材１０の閉鎖壁部１８が当接して所定の閉鎖位置を確保し、その当接によって筐体３０と前扉３１間の隙間を塞ぐこともできる。一方、前扉３１を開放側に回動したときには、図１６のように、可動部材１０の上突出板部１２より上方に突出した部分が固定部材１の上突出支持部２の側部に当接した状態が回動端となって、この例では約９０度の最大開放角度が設定される。
【００３４】
また、固定部材１の上突出支持部２の上ピン３及び下突出支持部６の下ピン７の位置が、固定部材１の取付面より左側に寄って位置し、つまり筐体３０の蝶番を取り付ける側の側壁の外側面近傍に蝶番の軸ピンが位置するため、筐体３０側の前面の蝶番装着部分を凹状に切り欠かなくても、前扉３１を良好に開閉することができ、筐体３０に対し前扉３１を最小の隙間で開閉することができる。
【００３５】
前扉３１を筐体３０から外す場合、つまり蝶番の可動部材１０を固定部材１より外す場合、前扉３１を筐体３０の前方に開いた状態で、可動部材１０の上突出板部１２上の回動部材１５を図１５（ａ）の位置まで回動させれば、上ピン３が軸受部材１３の軸受孔１４から容易に外れ、簡単に前扉３１つまり蝶番の可動部材１０を外すことができる。回動部材１５を回して軸受孔１４を開放しない状態では、可動部材１０の上突出板部１２が固定部材１の上突出支持部２の下面に当り、前扉２１を持ち上げることができないから、前扉３１を外すことはできない。
【００３６】
図１８、図１９は他の実施形態の回動停止部５９を示している。この回動停止部５９は、弾性部材５１を凹部のない回動停止部材５２の外周部に押し付けて前扉３１を任意の開き角度で止めるように構成される。回動停止部材５２以外の構成は上記実施形態の回動停止部１９と同様であり、その説明は上記と同じ符号を図に付してその説明を省略する。この回動停止部材５２は、図１８に示すように、その外周部にゴム状弾性部５２ｂを固定して構成され、中心部には、上記固定部材１の下ピン７が嵌着される異形軸孔５２ｂが形成されている。
【００３７】
そして、上記と同様に、下突出板部１６上に固定される回動停止部５９の本体２２内には、凹部２２ａが設けられ、その凹部２２ａ内に、固定部材１側の下ピン７に嵌合・固定される回動停止部材５２が回転可能に配設される。この回動停止部材５２の外周部にはゴム状弾性部５２ｂが形成され、一方、本体２２には、その回動停止部材５２のゴム状弾性部５２ｂを押圧して可動部材１０の回動を停止させる押圧部材５１が固定されている。押圧部材５１には凸部５１ａが設けられ、この凸部５１ａを回動停止部材５２のゴム状弾性部５２ｂに押し付けるように、押圧部材５１は取り付けられる。
【００３８】
この回動停止部５９を設けた蝶番では、図１９に示すように、前扉３１を筐体３０に対し開閉して、蝶番の可動部材１０を固定部材１に対し回動させると、下ピン７と回動停止部材５２に対し回動停止部５９の本体２２が回動する。そして、回動停止部材５２の外周部に設けたゴム状弾性部５２ｂに、回動停止部５９の押圧部材５１の凸部５１ａが強く当接しているため、可動部材１０の回動つまり前扉３１の回動に制動が生じて、前扉３１は開閉しようとする操作力を外せば、開いた任意の角度位置で停止する。したがって、スロットマシンのように、前扉が筐体に対し傾斜して支持され、重力などで自然に閉じる状態であっても、回動停止部５９の作用によって可動部材１０つまり前扉３１を任意の角度で止めることができる。
【００３９】
なお、上記実施例では、固定部材１、３１を一体に形成していたが、固定部材の上突出支持部と下突出支持部とは別個に形成することもできる。この場合、上突出支持部と下突出支持部とを繋ぐ固定取付板の部分が省略できるから、固定部材の軽量化が可能となる。
【００４０】
【発明の効果】
以上説明したように、本発明のゲーム機用蝶番によれば、可動部材の下部に設けた下突出板部上に、固定部材側の下ピンを軸支する軸受孔が設けられ、下ピンに嵌合して固定部材に対する可動部材の回動を予め設定した角度または任意の角度で停止させる回動停止部を、その下突出板部上に設けて構成したから、スロットマシンのように、前扉が筐体に対し傾斜して支持され、重力などで自然に閉じる状態であっても、回動停止部により可動部材つまり前扉が予め設定した角度で或いは任意の角度で停止し、不用意に扉が閉じることを防止することができる。また、回動停止部の本体が可動部材の下突出板部上に配設され、回動停止部の本体内に設けた回動停止部材に固定部材側の下ピンを嵌合・固定させて制動を付与する構造としたので、回動停止部を小型化して他の部材との干渉を回避し、蝶番を良好に使用することができる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a hinge for a detachable game machine in which a front door (front frame) of a game machine such as a slot machine or a pachinko machine is detachably attached to a housing (main body frame).
[0002]
[Prior art]
2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a hinge for attaching a front frame of a game machine such as a pachinko machine so as to be openable and closable with respect to a main body frame, a hinge having a structure including an upper hinge attached to an upper part and a lower hinge attached to a lower part is generally used. This hinge is formed by dividing the upper hinge and the lower hinge into a fixed part and a movable part, and the movable part side is rotatably supported with respect to the fixed part side by fitting the pin and the bearing part. That is, the fixed part of the upper hinge is fixed to the upper corner part of the main body frame, the movable part of the upper hinge is fixed to the upper corner part of the front frame, and the fixed part of the lower hinge is fixed to the lower corner part of the main body frame. The movable part of the hinge is fixed to the lower corner of the front frame. And when attaching the front frame to the main body frame, hold the front frame and fit the movable part of the lower hinge to the fixed part on the main body frame side by fitting the pin and bearing, and at the same time, move the movable part of the upper hinge to the main body frame Fit into the fixed part on the side by fitting the pin and bearing.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Therefore, as described above, when the front frame is attached to the main body frame, it is necessary to fit both the hinge pins provided on the upper corner portion and the lower corner portion and the bearings at the same time, and in addition, the game machine Since there are a lot of various mechanical and electrical devices attached to the front frame, the weight of the front frame is very heavy. In addition, since these front frames are mounted on the main body frame side by the operator's manual work, the installation work of such front frames is quite difficult, requires labor, and the pin and the bearing cannot be satisfactorily fitted. In some cases, there is a problem that the hinges and other members are damaged.
[0004]
Therefore, the present inventors integrally formed the upper hinge and the lower hinge in each of the fixed portion and the movable portion of the hinge, first fitting the lower hinge on the movable side to the lower hinge on the fixed side, and fitting the pin and the bearing hole While moving the pin or the bearing hole of the movable upper hinge in a substantially horizontal direction with respect to the fixed upper hinge, the movable upper hinge is fitted into the fixed upper hinge. Proposed a hinge for a game machine that can be assembled to (see, for example, Patent Document 1 below).
[0005]
[Patent Document 1]
JP, 2000-213227, A
By the way, even in the case of a hinge for a gaming machine as described above, for example, like a slot machine main body, its front surface is inclined with respect to a vertical surface so that its lower part is projected forward and its upper part is pulled backward. If it is, the rotation axis of the hinge of the door mounted on the front surface is also inclined with respect to the vertical axis. For this reason, when the door is opened, when the opening degree is up to 90 degrees, the door receives a force in the closing direction due to gravity and is naturally closed.
[0007]
For this reason, when repairing or inspecting a slot machine, if you want to keep the door open, the door is opened slightly beyond 90 degrees, but some external force is applied to the door.

A rotation stop member 52 to be fitted and fixed is rotatably arranged. A rubber-like elastic portion 52b is formed on the outer peripheral portion of the rotation stop member 52. On the other hand, the main member 22 presses the rubber-like elastic portion 52b of the rotation stop member 52 to rotate the movable member 10. The pressing member 51 to be stopped is fixed. The pressing member 51 is provided with a convex portion 51 a, and the pressing member 51 is attached so as to press the convex portion 51 a against the rubber-like elastic portion 52 b of the rotation stopping member 52.
[0038]
In the hinge provided with the rotation stopping portion 59, as shown in FIG. 19, when the front door 31 is opened and closed with respect to the housing 30, and the movable member 10 of the hinge is rotated with respect to the fixed member 1, the lower pin 7 and the rotation stopping member 52 rotate the main body 22 of the rotation stopping portion 59. And since the convex part 51a of the pressing member 51 of the rotation stop part 59 has contact | abutted strongly with the rubber-like elastic part 52b provided in the outer peripheral part of the rotation stop member 52, rotation of the movable member 10, ie, a front door. If braking occurs in the rotation of 31 and the operating force to open and close is removed, the front door 31 stops at an open arbitrary angular position. Therefore, even if the front door is supported by being inclined with respect to the housing as in the slot machine and is naturally closed by gravity or the like, the movable member 10, that is, the front door 31 can be arbitrarily set by the action of the rotation stop portion 59. It can be stopped at an angle.
[0039]
In addition, in the said Example, although the fixing members 1 and 31 were formed integrally, the upper protrusion support part and lower protrusion support part of a fixing member can also be formed separately. In this case, since the portion of the fixed mounting plate that connects the upper projecting support portion and the lower projecting support portion can be omitted, the weight of the fixing member can be reduced.
