Description

この発明は、遊技機の制御回路基板を収容する基板ボックスに関する。   The present invention relates to a board box that houses a control circuit board of a gaming machine.

従来の遊技機、例えばパチンコ遊技機において、遊技機の裏面側には、遊技機の遊技制御を行う役物制御装置や球排出装置を制御する球排出制御装置等の制御回路をボックス内に収容した基板ボックスが設けられている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   In a conventional gaming machine, for example, a pachinko gaming machine, a control circuit such as an accessory control device that controls the gaming machine or a ball discharge control device that controls the ball discharge device is housed in the box on the back side of the game machine. A substrate box is provided (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

基板ボックスは、IC(集積回路)や抵抗等の各種電子部品が多数実装された制御回路基板を樹脂性や金属性のボックスに収容して、ショート等を防いだり、ほこり等のゴミが侵入しないように保護しており、遊技機の本体枠(前面枠)や基枠体としての裏メカベース盤あるいは遊技盤等の裏面側に取付け可能となっている。   The board box contains a control circuit board on which a large number of electronic components such as IC (integrated circuit) and resistors are mounted in a resin or metal box to prevent short-circuiting or dust and other dust from entering. And can be attached to the back side of a main frame (front frame) of the gaming machine, a back mechanical base board as a base frame, or a game board.

例えば、役物制御装置においては、制御回路内にCPU、ROM(メモリ)、RAM(メモリ)等が設けられており、ROMに記憶されたプログラムにしたがい遊技制御が行われ、大当たり等もここで制御されている。   For example, in an accessory control device, a CPU, ROM (memory), RAM (memory), etc. are provided in a control circuit, game control is performed according to a program stored in the ROM, and jackpots are also here. It is controlled.

基板ボックスは、一般的に上蓋部材とベース部材とを重ね合わせたボックス体になっており、その他の各種装置と電気的に接続するためのコネクタ部がボックスから露出して設けられており、各種配線をコネクタ部に差し込むことにより、それぞれに関わる制御が可能となっている。   The board box is generally a box body in which an upper lid member and a base member are overlapped, and a connector part for electrical connection with other various devices is provided exposed from the box. By inserting the wiring into the connector portion, it is possible to control each of them.

基板ボックスに対する不正行為は、上蓋部材をはずして、開放された制御回路基板に備えられたROM等の電子部品を交換、あるいはデータの書き換え(例えば、大当たり確率を通常のものより高く設定する等)を行うことにより、通常の遊技制御と比較して、例えば大当たりを頻繁に出現させる等の不正な遊技制御を行うようにしていた。   For fraudulent acts on the board box, remove the upper cover member, replace the electronic parts such as ROM provided on the opened control circuit board, or rewrite the data (for example, set the jackpot probability higher than usual) By performing this, compared to the normal game control, for example, illegal game control such as frequent appearance of jackpots is performed.

このため、基板ボックスにおいては、一旦開放されると、開放されたことが分かるように、上蓋部材とベース部材との合わせ目に封印シールを貼ったり、あるいは基板ボックスの表面をクリアな樹脂により形成して、収容されている制御回路基板の状態を外部から見えるようにしていた。
特開平6−142283号公報
For this reason, in the substrate box, a seal is put on the joint between the upper lid member and the base member so that it can be seen that the substrate box is opened, or the surface of the substrate box is formed of a clear resin. Thus, the state of the accommodated control circuit board is made visible from the outside.
JP-A-6-142283

しかしながら、従来の基板ボックスは、上蓋部材とベース部材を構造的にビス止めのみで組付けていたため、上蓋部材をはずしてボックス体を開放することは容易であり、また上蓋部材とベース部材との合わせ目に封印シールを貼っていたとしても、これは安易な不正行為者には効果があるが、非常に専門的な不正行為者、例えば偽の封印シールや特殊な剥離材等をもっている者に対しては効果がなくなっているのが実状であった。   However, in the conventional substrate box, since the upper lid member and the base member are structurally assembled only by screws, it is easy to remove the upper lid member and open the box body. Even if a seal sticker is put on the seam, this is effective for easy fraudsters, but for very specialized fraudsters, such as those with fake seal stickers or special release materials. On the other hand, the fact is that the effect is lost.

不正行為者は、一般的に基板ボックスの封印を解いても、封印を解いたことをごまかそうと、遊技機に設置した状態では見えないように細工を施す。例えば、遊技機裏側から見えない部分から基板ボックスを無理やり開封したり、開封した場所を隠したりする。また、上記の偽封印シールを持っている者では、封印シールを剥がした痕跡が残っている上から偽シールを貼ったりする。   In general, a fraudulent person crafts a craft so that even if the board box is unsealed, it cannot be seen in a state where it is installed in a gaming machine in order to deceive the unsealing. For example, the board box is forcibly opened from a portion that cannot be seen from the back side of the gaming machine, or the opened place is hidden. Moreover, in the person who has said false seal seal, a false seal is affixed from the trace which peeled off the seal seal.

これらの不正行為を防止するためには、基板ボックスを開放不可能あるいは開放が非常に困難な構造にすることが考えられるが、遊技店においては、一旦設置した遊技機に対して抜打ち的に公的機関(警察等)により不正基板かどうかの検査が行われる。検査内容としては、ROMに記憶されているプログラムデータをデータローダにより読み込んで正規なROMと比較するといった検査が行われ、この場合に前述のごとく基板ボックスの開放が不可能であると、検査ができなくなってしまう。そのため、基板ボックスを破壊して開放することも考えられるが、基板ボックスを破壊してしまうと、検査後に再使用することができなくなってしまう。   In order to prevent these fraudulent acts, it may be possible to make the board box a structure that cannot be opened or very difficult to open. Inspection of whether or not it is an illegal board is performed by a target organization (the police, etc.). As the inspection contents, an inspection is performed such that the program data stored in the ROM is read by the data loader and compared with the regular ROM. In this case, if the substrate box cannot be opened as described above, the inspection is performed. It becomes impossible. For this reason, it is conceivable to destroy and open the substrate box. However, if the substrate box is destroyed, it cannot be reused after inspection.

そこで、本発明の目的は、制御回路基板を収容した基板ボックスの不正な開放を防止可能とした上で、検査や修理の際の開放を可能とすると共に、基板ボックスの不正な開放を容易に判別することができ、不正行為の隠蔽工作を防止可能とする遊技機の基板ボックスを提供することにある。   Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to prevent unauthorized opening of a board box containing a control circuit board, and to enable opening during inspection and repair, and to easily open the board box. It is an object of the present invention to provide a board box for a gaming machine that can be discriminated and can prevent fraud.

第1の発明は、遊技機に設けられた電気的作動装置の制御を行うための電子部品を実装した制御回路基板を収納する遊技機の基板ボックスにおいて、前記基板ボックスを構成する上蓋部材とベース部材は、内部を視認可能に透明な合成樹脂から構成するとともに、当該基板ボックスを閉じた状態において対向状態となる周壁を各々形成し、前記周壁の所定部位には、前記上蓋部材とベース部材とから各々突出して重合する重合結合部を複数形成して、このうちのいずれか一つの重合結合部に対し締め方向しか回せない締結部材により固着せしめて該ベース部材に対して上蓋部材を開放不能に閉止する不正開放防止結合手段を設け、固着されていない重合結合部は、前記制御回路基板に対する検査終了後に該不正開放防止結合手段により再閉止するためのものとし、前記上蓋部材における前記重合結合部には、前記締結部材の締結部が挿入される所定径の通し穴と、該通し穴の上部に該締結部材の頭部を囲う埋め込み穴と、を有する上方結合部と、前記上蓋部材の周壁部から突出して先端に該上方結合部が形成されるとともに当該基板ボックスを開放する際に切断される連結部と、が形成され、前記固着された重合結合部に対応する埋め込み穴に、前記締結部材の頭部を隠すように結合蓋部材を装着すると共に、固着されていない重合結合部に対応する通し穴に前記再閉止のための締結部材を仮止めしておき、前記上蓋部材の外面もしくは内面に、検査のために基板ボックスを正規に開放した際の検査履歴を記載する記載欄を設けた確認部材を取付けると共に、前記重合結合部の近傍に、それぞれ重合結合部に対応して識別記号を成型表示し、前記識別記号に前記確認部材の検査履歴の欄が対応するようにしたことを特徴とする。   According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a gaming machine board box for housing a control circuit board on which electronic components for controlling an electrical operating device provided in the gaming machine are mounted. An upper lid member and a base constituting the board box The members are made of transparent synthetic resin so that the inside can be visually recognized, and each of the peripheral walls is formed in an opposing state when the substrate box is closed, and the upper lid member and the base member are formed at predetermined portions of the peripheral wall. A plurality of polymerization bond portions that protrude from each of the polymerization bonds are formed, and are fixed to any one of the polymerization bond portions by a fastening member that can only be turned in the tightening direction, so that the upper cover member cannot be opened with respect to the base member. An unauthorized opening prevention coupling means for closing is provided, and the unbonded superposed coupling portion is reclosed by the unauthorized opening prevention coupling means after the inspection of the control circuit board is completed. A through hole having a predetermined diameter into which the fastening portion of the fastening member is inserted, and an embedding hole surrounding the head of the fastening member at the upper portion of the through hole; And an upper connecting portion that protrudes from the peripheral wall portion of the upper lid member, the upper connecting portion is formed at the tip, and a connecting portion that is cut when the substrate box is opened, and is fixed In the embedded hole corresponding to the overlapped coupling portion, a coupling lid member is attached so as to hide the head of the fastening member, and the fastening for reclosing is performed in the through hole corresponding to the unbonded overlapping bonding portion. Temporarily fixing the member, and attaching a confirmation member provided with a description column describing the inspection history when the substrate box is normally opened for inspection on the outer surface or inner surface of the upper lid member, Neighborhood , Molded displaying identification symbols corresponding to each polymerization coupling portion, the column of the inspection history of the confirmation member to the identification mark is characterized in that so as to correspond.

第2の発明は、前記締結部材は、締め方向しか回せないワンウェイネジで構成され、前記固着されていない重合結合部には、ドライバの差し込み穴を設けた結合蓋部材を装着することを特徴とする。   The second invention is characterized in that the fastening member is constituted by a one-way screw that can be turned only in the tightening direction, and a coupling lid member provided with a driver insertion hole is attached to the unbonded overlapping coupling portion. To do.

第1の発明によれば、重合結合部により基板ボックスを破壊せずに開放、閉止ができると共に、例えば大当たりを不正に発生させるために、正規に固着してある重合結合部の連結部を切断して、基板ボックスを開けてしまい、制御回路基板のROMを不正なROMに交換、あるいはROMのデータを書き換える不正行為が行われることがあっても、これは遊技店における遊技機の保守点検時あるいは営業中に遊技機の球詰まり等を直す際等、容易に発見することができる。また、固着された重合結合部の締結部材の頭部を結合蓋部材で隠すことができるので、不正行為者に触れられることを防止でき、例えば、ラジオペンチ等で無理やり緩む方向へと回されるといった不正な行為を防止することが可能となる。また、固着されていない重合結合部の通し穴には締結部材が仮止めされているので、検査終了後はこの仮止めされた締結部材により、重合結合部を固着して、基板ボックスを開放不能に再閉止することができる。また、識別記号と検査履歴を見て、重合結合部の状態を的確に照合でき、正規の重合結合部が固着してあるかを容易に確認することができる。   According to the first invention, the polymerization bond portion can be opened and closed without destroying the substrate box, and for example, in order to illegally generate a jackpot, the connection portion of the polymerization bond portion that is normally fixed is cut. Even if the board box is opened and the ROM of the control circuit board is replaced with an unauthorized ROM or the ROM data is rewritten, this may occur during maintenance inspections of gaming machines at amusement stores. Alternatively, it can be easily detected, for example, when a ball jam of a gaming machine is corrected during business. In addition, since the head of the fastening member of the superposed bonding portion can be concealed by the bonding lid member, it can be prevented from being touched by a fraudulent person and, for example, is rotated in a direction forcibly loosening with radio pliers or the like. It is possible to prevent such illegal acts. In addition, since the fastening member is temporarily fixed to the through hole of the unbonded polymerization bonding portion, after the inspection is completed, the polymerization bonding portion is firmly fixed by this temporarily fixed fastening member and the substrate box cannot be opened. Can be closed again. In addition, the state of the polymerization bond portion can be accurately checked by looking at the identification symbol and the inspection history, and it can be easily confirmed whether the normal polymerization bond portion is fixed.

第2の発明によれば、前記締結部材は、締め方向しか回せないワンウェイネジで構成され、前記固着されていない重合結合部には、ドライバの差し込み穴を設けた結合蓋部材を装着するので、仮止めされた締結部材が遊技機の運搬途中等で何らかの拍子に重合結合部から落下するのを防ぐことができ、検査時に重合結合部を固着する際には、差し込み穴にドライバの先端を差し込むことで仮止め状態から固着状態にすることが可能となる。   According to the second invention, the fastening member is constituted by a one-way screw that can only be turned in the tightening direction, and the coupling lid member provided with the insertion hole of the driver is attached to the superposed coupling portion that is not fixed. It is possible to prevent the temporarily fastened fastening member from falling from the polymerization coupling part in some way during the transportation of the gaming machine, and when fixing the polymerization coupling part during inspection, insert the tip of the driver into the insertion hole. Thus, it is possible to change from the temporarily fixed state to the fixed state.

重合結合部50〜53は、上蓋部材26の周壁38b、ベース部材25の周壁35bに沿って1列に所定の間隔を空けて形成され、重合結合部54〜57は、上蓋部材26の周壁38c、ベース部材25の周壁35cに沿って1列に所定の間隔を空けて、この場合周壁38b、周壁35bに近い側に形成される。重合結合部50〜53,54〜57をそれぞれ所定の間隔を空けて形成することにより、ニッパ等での切断が容易になり、検査時の作業性が向上する。   The overlapping portions 50 to 53 are formed at predetermined intervals in one row along the peripheral wall 38 b of the upper lid member 26 and the peripheral wall 35 b of the base member 25, and the overlapping portions 54 to 57 are formed on the peripheral wall 38 c of the upper lid member 26. The base member 25 is formed on the side close to the peripheral wall 38b and the peripheral wall 35b with a predetermined interval in a row along the peripheral wall 35c of the base member 25. By forming the polymerization bonding portions 50 to 53 and 54 to 57 at predetermined intervals, cutting with a nipper or the like is facilitated, and workability at the time of inspection is improved.

ベース部材25の周壁35a,35cには取付ボス72が突設され、その取付ボス72には裏メカベース盤10の取付部に設けた掛止具に対するワンタッチ式の止め具73(図2)が組み込まれる。   Mounting bosses 72 project from the peripheral walls 35a and 35c of the base member 25, and one-touch type stoppers 73 (FIG. 2) for the hooks provided at the mounting portion of the back mechanical base panel 10 are incorporated in the mounting bosses 72. It is.

図7〜図9に示すように、重合結合部50〜53、54〜57の上方連結部60の断面形状は幅の狭い長方形に、下方連結部62の断面形状はそれより幅の大きい方形に形成される。これらの幅は図9の左右方向の長さを言う。   As shown in FIGS. 7-9, the cross-sectional shape of the upper connection part 60 of the superposition | polymerization coupling | bond part 50-53, 54-57 is a narrow rectangle, and the cross-sectional shape of the lower connection part 62 is a square with a larger width | variety. It is formed. These widths refer to the lengths in the left-right direction of FIG.

下方連結部62が上方連結部60に隠れることのないように、下方連結部62の外形幅が上方連結部60の外形幅よりも大きく形成される。即ち、上蓋部材26をベース部材25に対して閉じた状態にて、上蓋部材26側から連結部60,62を見たときに、両方の連結部60,62の状態が視認可能に形成される。   The outer width of the lower connecting portion 62 is formed larger than the outer width of the upper connecting portion 60 so that the lower connecting portion 62 is not hidden by the upper connecting portion 60. That is, when the connecting portions 60 and 62 are viewed from the upper lid member 26 side with the upper lid member 26 closed with respect to the base member 25, the states of both the connecting portions 60 and 62 are formed so as to be visible. .

この場合、上方連結部60の断面形状は長方形でなくても良く、下方連結部62の断面形状は方形でなくても良い。また、これらの断面形状は曲形状、傾斜形状を持つものでも良い。また、連結部60,62の断面形状は山型形状あるいは図10のように大きさの異なる台形状でも良い。また、上方連結部60は下方連結部62の上方に位置せずとも良い。上蓋部材26側から両方の連結部60,62の状態が視認可能であれば、どのような形状でも良い。   In this case, the cross-sectional shape of the upper connecting portion 60 may not be a rectangle, and the cross-sectional shape of the lower connecting portion 62 may not be a square. These cross-sectional shapes may be curved or inclined. Further, the cross-sectional shape of the connecting portions 60 and 62 may be a mountain shape or a trapezoidal shape having different sizes as shown in FIG. Further, the upper connecting portion 60 may not be positioned above the lower connecting portion 62. Any shape may be used as long as the state of both of the connecting portions 60 and 62 is visible from the upper lid member 26 side.

なお、上方連結部60、下方連結部62の断面積は、同じでも、どちらが大きくても良いが、それぞれニッパ等で切断可能な大きさに形成される。   In addition, although the cross-sectional area of the upper connection part 60 and the lower connection part 62 may be the same or any may be large, it is each formed in the magnitude | size which can be cut | disconnected with a nipper etc.

上蓋部材26の天板部44の表面には、図7のように後述する確認部材80,81が取付けられると共に、重合結合部50〜53,54〜57の近傍に、それぞれ重合結合部50〜53,54〜57に対応して数字等の識別記号が印刷あるいは打刻(成型表示を含む)される。重合結合部50〜53,54〜57をそれぞれ左から順に組み合わせ、例えば重合結合部53,54に対応して1の識別記号が、重合結合部52,55に対応して2の識別記号が、重合結合部51,56に対応して3の識別記号が、重合結合部50,57に対応して4の識別記号が表示される。   As shown in FIG. 7, confirmation members 80 and 81, which will be described later, are attached to the surface of the top plate portion 44 of the upper lid member 26, and in the vicinity of the polymerization bond portions 50 to 53 and 54 to 57, respectively. Corresponding to 53, 54 to 57, identification symbols such as numerals are printed or stamped (including molding display). The polymerization bond portions 50 to 53 and 54 to 57 are combined in order from the left, respectively. For example, one identification symbol corresponding to the polymerization bond portions 53 and 54, and two identification symbols corresponding to the polymerization bond portions 52 and 55, Three identification symbols are displayed corresponding to the polymerization bonding portions 51 and 56, and four identification symbols are displayed corresponding to the polymerization bonding portions 50 and 57.

次に、基板ボックス15の組立ておよび遊技機への組付けについて説明する。   Next, the assembly of the board box 15 and the assembly to the gaming machine will be described.

ベース部材25の底部34に下部保護板27、制御回路基板30、上部保護板28を重ね、ネジにより止着用ボス36にネジ止めする。   The lower protective plate 27, the control circuit board 30, and the upper protective plate 28 are stacked on the bottom 34 of the base member 25, and screwed to the fastening boss 36 with screws.

上蓋部材26の重合結合部50〜53、54〜57の上方結合部61の通し穴64には、それぞれ締め方向しか回せないワンウェイネジ65を、ワンウェイネジ65の先端が通し穴64から下面に出ないように仮止めしておく。   A one-way screw 65 that can be turned only in the tightening direction is inserted into the through-hole 64 of the upper joint portion 61 of the overlapping joint portions 50 to 53 and 54 to 57 of the upper lid member 26, and the tip of the one-way screw 65 protrudes from the through-hole 64 to the lower surface. Temporarily fix so that there is no.

この場合、ワンウェイネジ65の深さを設定するために、ワンウェイネジ65を締めるドライバ工具等に締め付け深さを調整するストッパ等の調整機構を設けて、ワンウェイネジ65を仮止めするようにすると良い。ワンウェイネジ65を一旦締めると元に戻せないが、このようにすれば、ワンウェイネジ65を適度な深さに仮止めでき、仮止めを容易に行える。   In this case, in order to set the depth of the one-way screw 65, an adjustment mechanism such as a stopper for adjusting the tightening depth may be provided on a driver tool or the like that tightens the one-way screw 65 so that the one-way screw 65 is temporarily fixed. . Once the one-way screw 65 is tightened, it cannot be restored, but in this way, the one-way screw 65 can be temporarily fixed to an appropriate depth, and temporary fixing can be easily performed.

この上蓋部材26とベース部材25との蝶着部40を掛け合わせ、上蓋部材26を閉じる。この際、上蓋部材26とベース部材25との係止部43の突起41が係止片42に嵌まって、上蓋部材26がベース部材25に係止され、位置決めされると共に、重合結合部50〜53、54〜57の各上方結合部61の係合突部67が各下方結合部63の係合受部68に嵌まり、それぞれが位置決めしながら、重合する。   The hinge part 40 of this upper cover member 26 and the base member 25 is put together, and the upper cover member 26 is closed. At this time, the protrusion 41 of the locking portion 43 between the upper lid member 26 and the base member 25 is fitted into the locking piece 42, so that the upper lid member 26 is locked and positioned on the base member 25, and the overlapped coupling portion 50. The engagement protrusions 67 of the upper coupling portions 61 of -53 and 54-57 are fitted into the engagement receiving portions 68 of the lower coupling portions 63, and are superposed while being positioned.

この状態にて、重合結合部50〜53のうちの一つと、重合結合部54〜57のうちの一つとを、それぞれ上方結合部61に仮止めしてあるワンウェイネジ65を下方結合部63まで確実に締めて、結合、固着する。この場合、識別記号1の重合結合部53,54を結合、固着する。   In this state, the one-way screw 65, in which one of the polymerization coupling portions 50 to 53 and one of the polymerization coupling portions 54 to 57 are temporarily fixed to the upper coupling portion 61, is connected to the lower coupling portion 63. Securely tighten, bond and stick. In this case, the superposition | bonding coupling parts 53 and 54 of the identification symbol 1 are couple | bonded and fixed.

結合、固着した重合結合部53,54の上方結合部61の埋め込み穴66には、ワンウェイネジ65の頭部を隠すように図11のような結合蓋部材74を装着する。その他の重合結合部50〜52,55〜57の上方結合部61の埋め込み穴66には、ドライバの差し込み穴76を設けた図12のような仮止め結合蓋部材75を装着する。なお、埋め込み穴66には結合蓋部材74,75の突起77に掛止する溝を設けてある。ワンウェイネジ65の頭部を隠すことで、一度封印されたワンウェイネジ65の頭部は、不正行為者に触られることがなくなり、例えばラジオペンチ等で無理やり緩む方向へと回されるといった不正な行為を予防することが可能となる。そして、仮止め結合蓋部材75は、仮止めされたワンウェイネジ65の上部をふさぐようにするので、仮止めされたワンウェイネジ65が遊技機の運搬途中等で何らかの拍子に重合結合部から落下するのを防ぎながら、検査時に重合結合部の固着をする際に差し込み穴76にドライバの先端を差し込むことで仮止め状態から固着状態にすることが可能となる。また、仮止め結合蓋部材75は、差し込み穴76が設けられているが、この穴を設けずに、取付け、取り外しを自在にして、これを取り外してから仮止めされているワンウェイネジ65を固着するようにしても良い。   A coupling lid member 74 as shown in FIG. 11 is mounted in the embedding hole 66 of the upper coupling portion 61 of the coupled and fixed superimposing coupling portions 53 and 54 so as to hide the head of the one-way screw 65. A temporary fixing coupling lid member 75 as shown in FIG. 12 provided with a driver insertion hole 76 is mounted in the embedding hole 66 of the upper coupling portion 61 of the other overlapping coupling portions 50 to 52 and 55 to 57. The embedding hole 66 is provided with a groove that engages with the projection 77 of the coupling lid members 74 and 75. By concealing the head of the one-way screw 65, the head of the one-way screw 65 once sealed is not touched by a fraudster, for example, an illegal act of forcibly loosening with radio pliers or the like. Can be prevented. Since the temporarily fixed coupling lid member 75 covers the upper portion of the temporarily fixed one-way screw 65, the temporarily fixed one-way screw 65 falls from the overlapped coupling portion to some beat during the transportation of the gaming machine or the like. It is possible to change from the temporarily fixed state to the fixed state by inserting the tip of the driver into the insertion hole 76 when the polymerization bonding portion is fixed at the time of inspection. Further, the temporary fixing coupling lid member 75 is provided with an insertion hole 76, but without being provided with this hole, it can be attached and detached freely, and the temporarily fixed one-way screw 65 is fixed after being removed. You may make it do.

この後、基板ボックス15の表面つまり上蓋部材26の天板部44の表面には、図7のように透明なシール等に遊技機メーカー名、機種名、電圧、容量、注意書き等を記載した第1の確認部材80、ならびに所定のシール等に製造業者記号を含んだ基板管理番号を記載(図示してない)すると共に公的機関が検査の際に基板ボックス15を正規に開放したことを証明する記載を可能な欄つまり検査回数、検査年月日、検査印等の検査履歴の記載欄を設けた第2の確認部材81を取付ける。   After that, on the surface of the substrate box 15, that is, the surface of the top plate portion 44 of the upper lid member 26, the name of the gaming machine manufacturer, model name, voltage, capacity, cautionary notes, etc. were written on a transparent seal or the like as shown in FIG. The first control member 80 and the board control number including the manufacturer's symbol are written (not shown) on the predetermined seal and the like, and the public box has officially opened the board box 15 during the inspection. A second confirmation member 81 provided with a column capable of providing a description to be proved, that is, a column for describing the inspection history such as the number of inspections, the inspection date, and the inspection mark is attached.

第1の確認部材80は、上蓋部材26の天板部44の蝶着部40側に、第2の確認部材81は天板部44の重合結合部54〜57に沿う側に、貼着により取付ける。   The first confirmation member 80 is attached to the hinged portion 40 side of the top plate portion 44 of the upper lid member 26, and the second confirmation member 81 is attached to the side along the polymerization bonding portions 54 to 57 of the top plate portion 44 by sticking. Install.

この場合、第1の確認部材80は、樹脂等のプレートに遊技機メーカー名、…、注意書き等を印刷あるいは打刻(成型表示を含む)したものを、上蓋部材26の天板部44に接着、あるいは天板部44に嵌め込み溝等の取付部を形成して、取付けるようにして良い。また、遊技機メーカー名、…、注意書き等を予め天板部44に打刻するようにしても良い。   In this case, the first confirmation member 80 is obtained by printing or stamping (including molding indication) the name of the machine manufacturer,... Attachment may be made by bonding or forming a fitting portion such as a fitting groove on the top plate portion 44. In addition, the name of the gaming machine manufacturer,...

第2の確認部材81は、検査履歴の記載欄等を設けたシールを樹脂等のプレートに貼り付けると共に、上蓋部材26の天板部44にそのプレートを着脱できる嵌め込み溝等の取付部を形成して、取付けるようにして良い。また、検査時の開、封の手順等の説明をシールあるいはプレートに印刷あるいは打刻により表記するようにして良い。また、シールを用いる場合、剥がすと痕跡が残る特殊なシールを用いて良い。   The second confirmation member 81 forms a mounting portion such as a fitting groove on which the plate can be attached to and detached from the top plate portion 44 of the upper lid member 26 while sticking a seal provided with an inspection history description column or the like to a plate of resin or the like. And you may make it attach. In addition, a description of opening and sealing procedures at the time of inspection may be written on a sticker or plate by printing or stamping. Moreover, when using a seal | sticker, you may use the special seal | sticker in which a trace remains when it peels.

また、第2の確認部材81の検査回数の欄には、上蓋部材26の天板部44に表示してある重合結合部50〜53,54〜57の識別記号1,2,3,4に対応して、第1、第2、第3、第4の表示の印刷等を行っておく。このように、重合結合部50〜53,54〜57の識別記号に検査履歴の欄を対応させれば、重合結合部50〜53,54〜57の封印順序が定まり、識別記号、検査履歴を見て、重合結合部の状態を的確に照合でき、正規の重合結合部が固着してあるか、不正に切除してあるかが容易に分かる。   In the column of the number of inspections of the second confirmation member 81, the identification symbols 1, 2, 3, and 4 of the superposition bonding parts 50 to 53 and 54 to 57 displayed on the top plate part 44 of the upper lid member 26 are displayed. Correspondingly, printing of the first, second, third, and fourth displays is performed. In this way, if the column of the inspection history is made to correspond to the identification symbols of the polymerization bonding portions 50 to 53 and 54 to 57, the sealing order of the polymerization bonding portions 50 to 53 and 54 to 57 is determined, and the identification symbols and the inspection history are displayed. The state of the superposition | polymerization coupling | bond part can be collated exactly, and it can be understood easily whether the regular superposition | polymerization coupling | bond part has adhered or it cut off illegally.

なお、第1の確認部材80、第2の確認部材81は、上蓋部材26の天板部44の内面に、つまり確認部材80,81の表面を天板部44の表面(外面)に向けて取付けるようにしても良い。この場合、埃等によって確認部材80,81が汚れたり、表示が見えにくくなるようなことはなく、また確認部材80,81が剥がれたり、傷付いたりするようなこともない。   The first confirmation member 80 and the second confirmation member 81 are directed to the inner surface of the top plate portion 44 of the upper lid member 26, that is, the surfaces of the confirmation members 80 and 81 are directed to the surface (outer surface) of the top plate portion 44. You may make it attach. In this case, the confirmation members 80 and 81 are not soiled by dust or the display is not easily seen, and the confirmation members 80 and 81 are not peeled off or damaged.

そして、このように組立てた基板ボックス15を図2のように遊技機の裏メカベース盤10の所定の取付位置に取付ける。   Then, the assembled board box 15 is attached to a predetermined attachment position of the back mechanical base board 10 of the gaming machine as shown in FIG.

基板ボックス15のベース部材25を裏メカベース盤10の所定の取付位置の表面に合わせ、ベース部材25の取付ボス72のワンタッチ式の止め具73を裏メカベース盤10の所定位置の掛止具に押し込み、固定する。   The base member 25 of the board box 15 is aligned with the surface of the back mechanical base board 10 at a predetermined mounting position, and the one-touch type stopper 73 of the mounting boss 72 of the base member 25 is pushed into the hook at the predetermined position of the back mechanical base board 10. , Fix.

この場合、図2のように重合結合部54〜57が上方に、制御回路基板30の配線コード群の接続領域33が球排出制御装置13側に、重合結合部50〜53が裏メカベース盤10の周縁部につまり遊技機の前面枠1の開閉自由端側にくるように、取付位置を定めている。   In this case, as shown in FIG. 2, the superposition coupling portions 54 to 57 are directed upward, the connection region 33 of the wiring cord group of the control circuit board 30 is on the ball discharge control device 13 side, and the superposition coupling portions 50 to 53 are on the back mechanical base board 10. The attachment position is determined so as to come to the peripheral edge of the front frame 1, that is, the open / close free end of the front frame 1 of the gaming machine.

この取付後、制御回路基板30の配線コード群の接続領域33のコネクタ部32に、表示制御装置12、球排出制御装置13、各種電気機器からの配線コード群17〜20のコネクタ端をそれぞれ嵌め込み、接続する。   After this attachment, the connector ends of the wiring cord groups 17 to 20 from the display control device 12, the ball discharge control device 13, and various electric devices are fitted into the connector portions 32 of the connection region 33 of the wiring cord group of the control circuit board 30. ,Connecting.

この際、接続領域33に対する配線コード群17〜20の配線作業空間が重ならない基板ボックス15の部位に重合結合部50〜53、54〜57が位置している。即ち、重合結合部50〜53は、接続領域33の反対側にて裏メカベース盤10の周縁部側に、重合結合部54〜57は、接続領域33から離れ裏メカベース盤10の周縁部に近い側に位置する。このため、配線コード群17〜20を接続領域33のコネクタ部32に接続する場合に、重合結合部50〜53,54〜57に配線が絡まったり、接続した配線が重合結合部50〜53,54〜57を覆って重合結合部50〜53,54〜57が隠れたりすることはない。   Under the present circumstances, the superposition | bonding coupling | bond part 50-53, 54-57 is located in the site | part of the board | substrate box 15 where the wiring work space of the wiring code groups 17-20 with respect to the connection area | region 33 does not overlap. In other words, the overlapping bonding portions 50 to 53 are on the side of the peripheral portion of the back mechanical base board 10 on the opposite side of the connection region 33, and the overlapping bonding portions 54 to 57 are apart from the connection region 33 and close to the peripheral portion of the back mechanical base plate 10. Located on the side. For this reason, when connecting the wiring cord groups 17 to 20 to the connector portion 32 of the connection region 33, the wires are entangled with the overlapping bonding portions 50 to 53 and 54 to 57, or the connected wires are overlapped with the overlapping bonding portions 50 to 53, The superposition | polymerization coupling | bond part 50-53 and 54-57 do not cover 54-57.

このように、組立て、組付けを行うのであり、公的機関による基板ボックス15内の制御回路基板30のROM31の検査を行うときは、遊技機の裏メカベース盤10より基板ボックス15を外して、あるいは裏メカベース盤10に取付けたまま、基板ボックス15を開ける。   In this way, assembly and assembly are performed, and when the ROM 31 of the control circuit board 30 in the board box 15 is inspected by a public institution, the board box 15 is removed from the back mechanical base board 10 of the gaming machine, Alternatively, the substrate box 15 is opened while being attached to the back mechanical base board 10.

基板ボックス15を取り外す際は、まず配線コード群17〜20を接続領域33のコネクタ部32より外し、ベース部材25のワンタッチ式の止め具73を引くと、外せる。このとき、配線作業空間が重合結合部50〜53,54〜57に重ならないため、重合結合部50〜53,54〜57に配線が絡まって、取り外しがしにくかったり、配線や重合結合部50〜53,54〜57を傷つけるようなことはない。   When removing the board box 15, the wiring cord groups 17 to 20 are first removed from the connector portion 32 of the connection region 33, and can be removed by pulling the one-touch type stopper 73 of the base member 25. At this time, since the wiring work space does not overlap with the superposition coupling parts 50 to 53 and 54 to 57, the superposition of the superposition coupling parts 50 to 53 and 54 to 57 makes it difficult to remove the wiring work space or the superposition coupling part 50. There is no such thing as hurting ~ 53, 54 ~ 57.

基板ボックス15を取り外すと、重合結合部50〜53,54〜57のうち、ワンウェイネジ65によって固着してある識別記号1の重合結合部53,54の上方連結部60、下方連結部62をニッパ等で切断して、その重合結合部53,54を取り除く。この場合、上方連結部60、下方連結部62の両方を確実に切断する。   When the substrate box 15 is removed, the upper connecting portion 60 and the lower connecting portion 62 of the overlapping portions 53 and 54 of the identification symbol 1 fixed by the one-way screw 65 among the overlapping portions 50 to 53 and 54 to 57 are nippered. The superposition | polymerization coupling | bond part 53,54 is removed by cut | disconnecting by the above. In this case, both the upper connecting part 60 and the lower connecting part 62 are reliably cut.

この重合結合部53,54を除くと、上蓋部材26は係止部43によって閉止しているだけのため、係止部43を外せば、上蓋部材26が開く。   Except for the overlapping portions 53 and 54, the upper lid member 26 is only closed by the latching portion 43. Therefore, if the latching portion 43 is removed, the upper lid member 26 is opened.

上蓋部材26を開くと、制御回路基板30のROM31を外して検査を行うことになる。   When the upper lid member 26 is opened, the inspection is performed with the ROM 31 of the control circuit board 30 removed.

検査を終了すると、ROM31を制御回路基板30に装着して上蓋部材26を閉じる。この際、上蓋部材26が位置決めしながら係止部43が係止する。同時に、切除していない識別記号2〜4の重合結合部50〜52,55〜57の各上方結合部61の係合突部67が各下方結合部63の係合受部68に嵌まり、位置決めする。   When the inspection is completed, the ROM 31 is mounted on the control circuit board 30 and the upper lid member 26 is closed. At this time, the locking portion 43 is locked while the upper lid member 26 is positioned. At the same time, the engagement protrusions 67 of the upper coupling portions 61 of the superposed coupling portions 50 to 52 and 55 to 57 of the identification symbols 2 to 4 that are not excised fit into the engagement receiving portions 68 of the lower coupling portions 63, respectively. Position.

この状態にて、識別記号2の重合結合部52,55の上方結合部61に仮止めしてあるワンウェイネジ65を下方結合部63まで締めて、その重合結合部52,55を結合、固着する。上蓋部材26を閉じると、識別記号2〜4の重合結合部50〜52,55〜57の各上方結合部61の係合突部67が各下方結合部63の係合受部68に嵌まり、位置決めする。即ち、識別記号2〜4の重合結合部50〜52,55〜57が確実に重合するため、識別記号2の重合結合部52,55の結合、固着が容易になり、不完全な状態でワンウェイネジ65を締める心配はない。   In this state, the one-way screw 65 temporarily fixed to the upper coupling portion 61 of the polymerization coupling portion 52, 55 of the identification symbol 2 is tightened to the lower coupling portion 63, and the polymerization coupling portions 52, 55 are coupled and fixed. . When the upper lid member 26 is closed, the engagement protrusions 67 of the upper coupling portions 61 of the overlapping coupling portions 50 to 52 and 55 to 57 of the identification symbols 2 to 4 are fitted into the engagement receiving portions 68 of the lower coupling portions 63. , Positioning. That is, since the polymerization bond portions 50 to 52 and 55 to 57 with the identification symbols 2 to 4 are surely polymerized, the polymerization bond portions 52 and 55 with the identification symbol 2 can be easily bonded and fixed, and one-way in an incomplete state. There is no worry of tightening the screw 65.

この後、上蓋部材26の天板部44の第2の確認部材81の検査回数の第1の記載欄に、検査担当者が検査年月日の記入、検査印等の捺印を行った後、基板ボックス15を遊技機の裏メカベース盤10の取付位置に合わせ、ベース部材25のワンタッチ式の止め具73を押し込み、取付ける。   After this, after the person in charge of the inspection enters the date of inspection, the inspection mark, etc. in the first description column of the number of inspections of the second confirmation member 81 of the top plate portion 44 of the top cover member 26, The board box 15 is aligned with the attachment position of the back mechanical base board 10 of the gaming machine, and the one-touch type stopper 73 of the base member 25 is pushed in and attached.

取付後は、制御回路基板30の接続領域33のコネクタ部32に配線コード群17〜20を接続して完了となる。   After the attachment, the wiring cord groups 17 to 20 are connected to the connector portion 32 of the connection region 33 of the control circuit board 30 to complete.

また、基板ボックス15を裏メカベース盤10に取付けたまま、検査を行う場合は、そのままニッパ等で、重合結合部50〜53,54〜57のうち、ワンウェイネジ65によって固着してある識別記号1の重合結合部53,54の上方連結部60、下方連結部62をニッパ等で切断して、その重合結合部53,54を取り除く。配線コード群17〜20が重合結合部50〜53,54〜57から離れているため、重合結合部53,54を切除する際に配線を一緒に切断するようなことはない。   Further, when the inspection is performed with the substrate box 15 being attached to the back mechanical base board 10, the identification symbol 1 fixed by the one-way screw 65 of the overlapped bonding portions 50 to 53 and 54 to 57 is directly used by a nipper or the like. The upper coupling portion 60 and the lower coupling portion 62 of the polymerization coupling portions 53 and 54 are cut with a nipper or the like, and the polymerization coupling portions 53 and 54 are removed. Since the wiring cord groups 17 to 20 are separated from the overlapping portions 50 to 53 and 54 to 57, the wires are not cut together when the overlapping portions 53 and 54 are cut off.

この状態にて、係止部43を外すと、上蓋部材26が開き、制御回路基板30からROM31を外して検査を行う。   In this state, when the latching portion 43 is removed, the upper lid member 26 is opened, and the ROM 31 is removed from the control circuit board 30 for inspection.

検査を終了すれば、ROM31を制御回路基板30に装着して上蓋部材26を閉じ、この際係止部43によって上蓋部材26は位置決めすると共に、識別記号2〜4の重合結合部50〜52,55〜57の各上方結合部61の係合突部67が各下方結合部63の係合受部68に嵌まり、位置決めしながら、識別記号2〜4の重合結合部50〜52,55〜57が確実に重合するため、上蓋部材26を閉じると、そのまま識別記号2の重合結合部52,55の上方結合部61に仮止めしてあるワンウェイネジ65を下方結合部63まで締めて、その重合結合部52,55を結合、固着する。重合結合部52,55は配線コード群17〜20から離れているため、その結合、固着を容易に行える。   When the inspection is completed, the ROM 31 is mounted on the control circuit board 30 and the upper lid member 26 is closed. At this time, the upper lid member 26 is positioned by the locking portion 43 and the overlapping coupling portions 50 to 52 of the identification symbols 2 to 4 are provided. While the engaging protrusions 67 of the upper coupling portions 61 of 55 to 57 are fitted and positioned in the engagement receiving portions 68 of the lower coupling portions 63, the overlapping coupling portions 50 to 52, 55 of the identification symbols 2 to 4 are positioned. When the upper lid member 26 is closed, the one-way screw 65 temporarily fixed to the upper coupling portion 61 of the superposition coupling portion 52, 55 of the identification symbol 2 is tightened to the lower coupling portion 63. The polymerization bonding parts 52 and 55 are bonded and fixed. Since the superposition | bonding coupling parts 52 and 55 are separated from the wiring cord groups 17-20, the coupling | bonding and fixation can be performed easily.

後は、上蓋部材26の天板部44の第2の確認部材81の検査回数の第1の記載欄に、検査担当者が検査年月日の記入、検査印等の捺印を行えば、完了となる。   After that, if the person in charge of the inspection fills in the first description column of the number of inspections of the second confirmation member 81 of the top plate part 44 of the top cover member 26, the inspection date is completed and the inspection mark is printed. It becomes.

一方、不正行為として、基板ボックス15を不正に開けて、制御回路基板30のROM31を不正なROMに交換、あるいはROM31のデータを書き換えて、大当たりを頻繁に発生させる等の不正行為がある。   On the other hand, as an illegal act, there is an illegal act such as opening the board box 15 illegally, replacing the ROM 31 of the control circuit board 30 with an illegal ROM, or rewriting data in the ROM 31 to frequently generate jackpots.

この不正行為には、正規に固着してある重合結合部の上方連結部60と下方連結部62とを切断して、その重合結合部を取り除いて、基板ボックス15を開けたりすることが想定される。   In this fraudulent act, it is assumed that the upper connecting portion 60 and the lower connecting portion 62 of the polymerization bonding portion that is properly fixed are cut, the polymerization bonding portion is removed, and the substrate box 15 is opened. The

また、上方連結部60のみを切断して、重合結合部を取り除かずに、基板ボックス15を開けたり、あるいは切断部分を隠蔽するように、上方連結部60は切断せずに下側の下方連結部62のみを切断して、基板ボックス15を開けたりすることが想定される。   In addition, the upper connection portion 60 is not cut and the upper lower connection portion 60 is not cut so that the substrate box 15 is opened or the cut portion is concealed without cutting only the upper connection portion 60 and removing the polymerization bond portion. It is assumed that only the part 62 is cut and the substrate box 15 is opened.

しかし、重合結合部が取り除かれた場合、また上方連結部60あるいは下方連結部62のどちらかが切断された場合、これらは遊技店における遊技機の保守点検時あるいは営業中に遊技機の球詰まり等を直す際等に、発見できる。   However, when the superposition bonding portion is removed, or when either the upper connection portion 60 or the lower connection portion 62 is cut, these are clogged with the ball of the gaming machine at the maintenance check of the gaming machine in the gaming store or during the business. Can be found when repairing etc.

基板ボックス15を遊技機の裏面に取付けるため、遊技機の裏側から重合結合部50〜53,54〜57を確認できると共に、重合結合部50〜53,54〜57の上方連結部60の状態および下方連結部62の状態を上蓋部材26側から視認可能なため、基板ボックス15の取付部のほぼ正面側から即ち遊技機の裏側から、図7のように重合結合部50〜53,54〜57の上方連結部60の状態および下方連結部62の状態の両方を視認できる。また、基板ボックス15を取付けた状態において、図2のように重合結合部50〜53が遊技機の前面枠1の開閉自由端側に、重合結合部54〜57が基板ボックス15の上部にあり、また接続領域33の配線に隠れることがないので、係員の目に入りやすい。   Since the board box 15 is attached to the back side of the gaming machine, the superposition coupling parts 50 to 53 and 54 to 57 can be confirmed from the back side of the gaming machine, and the state of the upper connection part 60 of the superposition coupling parts 50 to 53 and 54 to 57 and Since the state of the lower connecting portion 62 is visible from the upper lid member 26 side, from the almost front side of the mounting portion of the board box 15, that is, from the back side of the gaming machine, as shown in FIG. Both the state of the upper connecting portion 60 and the state of the lower connecting portion 62 can be visually recognized. In the state where the board box 15 is attached, the superposition coupling parts 50 to 53 are on the open / close free end side of the front frame 1 of the gaming machine and the superposition coupling parts 54 to 57 are on the top of the board box 15 as shown in FIG. In addition, since it is not hidden behind the wiring in the connection area 33, it is easy to see the eyes of the staff.

そのため、遊技機の前面枠1を開くと、正規の重合結合部が切除されていれば、これをすぐに見付けることができる。   Therefore, when the front frame 1 of the gaming machine is opened, this can be found immediately if the normal polymerization bond portion is cut off.

また、上方連結部60が切断されている場合、固着してある重合結合部が取り除かれていなくとも、その切断の跡が見えるため、上方連結部60が切断されていることが容易に分かる。   In addition, when the upper connecting portion 60 is cut, even if the fixed polymerization bonding portion is not removed, the cutting trace can be seen, so that it can be easily understood that the upper connecting portion 60 is cut.

また、上方連結部60の下側の下方連結部62も視認できるため、図13、図14のように重合結合部52,55の上方連結部60が切断されずに下方連結部62のみが切断されている場合(重合結合部53,54は正規な切除)に、その切断の跡が目に入り、下側の下方連結部62が切断されていることを容易に見付けることができる。即ち、下方連結部62だけを切断して開封したことを分かりにくくしようとする隠蔽行為に対処できる。   Further, since the lower connecting portion 62 on the lower side of the upper connecting portion 60 can also be visually recognized, only the lower connecting portion 62 is cut without cutting the upper connecting portion 60 of the polymerization bonding portions 52 and 55 as shown in FIGS. When it is done (the polymerization bond portions 53 and 54 are properly cut), it is easy to find that the trace of the cut is visible and the lower lower connection portion 62 is cut. That is, it is possible to cope with a concealing act that attempts to obscure the fact that only the lower connecting portion 62 has been cut and opened.

基板ボックス15の上蓋部材26の天板部44に重合結合部50〜53,54〜57の識別記号を表示すると共に、天板部44に取付けてある第2の確認部材81にその識別記号に対応する検査履歴の欄を設けるため、その識別記号、検査履歴を見て、固着してある重合結合部が正しいものかどうか、不正な切除かどうかの照合を簡単に行え、不正を容易に見付けることができる。   The identification symbols of the superposition bonding portions 50 to 53 and 54 to 57 are displayed on the top plate portion 44 of the upper cover member 26 of the substrate box 15, and the identification symbols are displayed on the second confirmation member 81 attached to the top plate portion 44. Since the corresponding inspection history column is provided, it is possible to easily identify fraud by checking the identification symbol and inspection history, and confirming whether the bonded superimposing bond is correct or unauthorized removal. be able to.

基板ボックス15の複数の箇所に重合結合部50〜53,54〜57を形成して、複数の重合結合部を封印するので、封印効果が高まることに加え、不正を発見しやすい。   Since the polymerization bonding portions 50 to 53 and 54 to 57 are formed at a plurality of locations of the substrate box 15 and the plurality of polymerization bonding portions are sealed, the sealing effect is enhanced and fraud is easily detected.

このように、基板ボックス15を取り外さずに、遊技機の裏側から基板ボックス15の重合結合部50〜53,54〜57、これらの上方連結部60、下方連結部62の状態、および第1の確認部材80、第2の確認部材81の記載内容を視認できるのであり、不正行為があっても、遊技機の保守点検時あるいは営業中に遊技機の球詰まり等を直す際等に簡単にかつ早期に発見できる。このため、不正抑止を図れる。   Thus, without removing the board box 15, from the back side of the gaming machine, the superposition coupling parts 50 to 53, 54 to 57 of the board box 15, the state of the upper connection part 60, the lower connection part 62, and the first The contents described in the confirmation member 80 and the second confirmation member 81 can be visually confirmed. Even if there is an illegal act, it can be easily performed at the time of maintenance / inspection of the gaming machine or when the ball jamming of the gaming machine is corrected. Can be discovered early. For this reason, illegal deterrence can be achieved.

したがって、重合結合部を切除して基板ボックス15を開け、制御回路基板30のROM31を不正に交換する等の不正行為を防止でき、このような不正行為による遊技店の損害を最小限に抑えることができる。   Therefore, it is possible to prevent fraudulent acts such as excision of the overlapped portion, opening the board box 15, and illegally replacing the ROM 31 of the control circuit board 30, and minimizing the damage to the amusement shop due to such fraudulent acts. Can do.

また、基板ボックス15の遊技機への取付け、取り外し時に、重合結合部50〜53,54〜57に配線が絡んだりすることがないため、その取付け、取り外しが容易であり、また公的機関による検査時に、基板ボックス15を遊技機から取り外して検査を行う場合、その取り外し、取付け作業が容易であり、検査をスムーズに行える。   Further, when the board box 15 is attached to or removed from the gaming machine, wiring is not entangled with the superposition coupling parts 50 to 53 and 54 to 57, so that the attachment and removal are easy, and it is also possible by a public organization. When the inspection is performed by removing the board box 15 from the gaming machine at the time of inspection, the removal and attachment work is easy, and the inspection can be performed smoothly.

基板ボックス15の上蓋部材26とベース部材25とに設けた蝶着部40と係止部43とによって、重合結合部を切除する際、あるいは重合結合部のワンウェイネジ65を締める際に、上蓋部材26やベース部材25が動いたりすることはなく、重合結合部の切除、ワンウェイネジ65の締結を行いやすくなる。   The top lid member is used to cut the overlapped portion or tighten the one-way screw 65 of the overlapped portion by the hinge portion 40 and the locking portion 43 provided on the upper cover member 26 and the base member 25 of the substrate box 15. 26 and the base member 25 do not move, and it becomes easy to cut the overlapped portion and fasten the one-way screw 65.

蝶着部40と係止部43と、重合結合部50〜53,54〜57の上方結合部61と下方結合部63とに設けた係合部67,68とによって、上蓋部材26を閉じれば、重合結合部50〜53,54〜57がそれぞれ確実に重合して位置合わせが容易に行え、ワンウェイネジ65によって該当する重合結合部の結合、固着を確実に行える。   If the upper lid member 26 is closed by the hinge part 40, the locking part 43, and the engaging parts 67, 68 provided in the upper coupling part 61 and the lower coupling part 63 of the superposition coupling parts 50-53, 54-57. In addition, the polymerization bonding portions 50 to 53 and 54 to 57 can be reliably polymerized and can be easily aligned, and the one-way screw 65 can reliably bond and fix the corresponding polymerization bonding portions.

公的機関による検査時に、基板ボックス15を遊技機から取り外さずに検査を行える。この際、固着してある重合結合部を切除して、係止部43を外せば、上蓋部材26が簡単に開くと共に、上蓋部材26は蝶着部40によって手前下方に開いた状態を保つので、制御回路基板30からROM31を簡単に外せる。また、検査終了後にROM31を簡単に装着できる。   At the time of inspection by a public institution, the inspection can be performed without removing the board box 15 from the gaming machine. At this time, if the overlapped bonding portion is fixed and the locking portion 43 is removed, the upper lid member 26 can be easily opened, and the upper lid member 26 can be kept open by the butterfly portion 40 downward. The ROM 31 can be easily removed from the control circuit board 30. Further, the ROM 31 can be easily mounted after the inspection is completed.

したがって、基板ボックス15の遊技機への取付け、取り外し作業、基板ボックス15の開放、封印作業、検査作業を容易に行え、作業性の向上を図れる。   Therefore, attachment / detachment work of the board box 15 to / from the gaming machine, opening of the board box 15, sealing work, and inspection work can be easily performed, and workability can be improved.

なお、重合結合部50〜53,54〜57の締結部材として、ワンウェイネジ65を用いたが、リベットを用いても良く、また重合結合部の構造を含め、切断あるいは切除しなければ、基板ボックス15を開けられないものであれば、何でも良い。   Although the one-way screw 65 is used as a fastening member for the overlapping portions 50 to 53 and 54 to 57, a rivet may be used. Anything can be used as long as 15 cannot be opened.

また、基板ボックス15の上蓋部材26、ベース部材25の周壁38b,35b,38c,35cの二カ所に、即ち上蓋部材26側から見て複数ある辺部のうち二つの辺部に重合結合部50〜53,54〜57を形成したが、そのうちの一方にのみ形成しても良い。   Further, the polymerization bonding portion 50 is provided at two locations of the upper lid member 26 of the substrate box 15 and the peripheral walls 38b, 35b, 38c, 35c of the base member 25, that is, at two sides of the plurality of sides as seen from the upper lid member 26 side. ˜53, 54˜57 are formed, but may be formed only on one of them.

また、実施の形態では、役物制御装置の基板ボックスに適用した例を示したが、遊技プログラムを記憶したROMと同じような重要部品を持つものであれば、これに限定することなく適用できる。また、基板ボックスは、一つの役物制御装置だけでなく、球排出制御装置あるいはその他の制御装置を収容するものであって良い。   Moreover, although the example applied to the board | substrate box of the accessory control apparatus was shown in embodiment, if it has the same important parts as ROM which memorize | stored the game program, it can apply, without limiting to this. . Further, the substrate box may accommodate not only one accessory control device but also a ball discharge control device or other control device.

図15〜図18は別の実施の形態を示すもので、重合結合部50〜53,54〜57のそれぞれ上方連結部90と下方連結部91とに、連結部同士が嵌合する嵌合部92を形成したものである。   FIGS. 15 to 18 show another embodiment, and fitting portions in which the coupling portions are fitted to the upper coupling portion 90 and the lower coupling portion 91 of the overlapping coupling portions 50 to 53 and 54 to 57, respectively. 92 is formed.

上方連結部90は、断面形状が幅(図17、図18の左右方向の長さを言う)の狭い長方形に形成され、下方連結部91は、上部に上方連結部90に対応する溝93が形成される。この溝93の両側の壁94は、下方結合部63の上面より上方に突出して形成される。   The upper connecting portion 90 is formed in a rectangular shape whose cross-sectional shape is narrow (referring to the length in the left-right direction in FIGS. 17 and 18), and the lower connecting portion 91 has a groove 93 corresponding to the upper connecting portion 90 in the upper portion. It is formed. The walls 94 on both sides of the groove 93 are formed to protrude upward from the upper surface of the lower coupling portion 63.

したがって、上蓋部材26をベース部材25に対して閉じた状態にて、図17のように上方連結部90が下方連結部91の溝93に嵌合される。   Therefore, in a state where the upper lid member 26 is closed with respect to the base member 25, the upper connecting portion 90 is fitted into the groove 93 of the lower connecting portion 91 as shown in FIG.

このようにすれば、上蓋部材26側から連結部90,91を見たときに、両方の連結部90,91の状態を視認できると共に、嵌合によって上方連結部90、下方連結部91の片側のみを切断するのが難しくなり、不正行為の防止効果が高まる。   If it does in this way, when the connection parts 90 and 91 are seen from the upper cover member 26 side, the state of both the connection parts 90 and 91 can be visually recognized, and one side of the upper connection part 90 and the lower connection part 91 by fitting. It becomes difficult to cut off only, and the effect of preventing fraud is increased.

なお、下方連結部91の溝93を深くし、上方連結部90の下部を上方結合部61よりも下方に突出させる形状にしても良い。また、上方連結部90、下方連結部91の断面形状は曲形状、傾斜形状を持つものでも良い。   The groove 93 of the lower connecting portion 91 may be deepened and the lower portion of the upper connecting portion 90 may be protruded downward from the upper connecting portion 61. Further, the cross-sectional shapes of the upper connecting portion 90 and the lower connecting portion 91 may be curved or inclined.

図19〜図22は別の実施の形態を示すもので、上蓋部材26をベース部材25に対して閉じた状態にて、上蓋部材26側から重合結合部50〜53,54〜57の上方連結部95、下方連結部96を見たときに、それぞれ上方連結部95、下方連結部96が対称位置に見えるように形成し、連結部95、連結部96の状態を視認できるようにしたものであり、連結部95、連結部96がそれぞれ直接的に視認できるので切断痕が容易に認識できる。   19 to 22 show another embodiment. In the state in which the upper lid member 26 is closed with respect to the base member 25, the upper coupling of the polymerization bonding portions 50 to 53 and 54 to 57 from the upper lid member 26 side. When the portion 95 and the lower connecting portion 96 are viewed, the upper connecting portion 95 and the lower connecting portion 96 are formed so as to be seen in symmetrical positions, respectively, so that the state of the connecting portion 95 and the connecting portion 96 can be visually recognized. In addition, since the connecting portion 95 and the connecting portion 96 can be directly visually recognized, the cutting trace can be easily recognized.

図21、図22のように上方連結部95は上方結合部61に対して左側に偏心して形成され、下方連結部96は下方結合部63に対して右側に偏心して形成される。即ち、互い違いに形成される。この場合、連結部95,96に重なる部分があっても良い。   As shown in FIGS. 21 and 22, the upper connecting portion 95 is formed eccentrically on the left side with respect to the upper connecting portion 61, and the lower connecting portion 96 is formed eccentrically on the right side with respect to the lower connecting portion 63. That is, they are formed alternately. In this case, there may be a portion overlapping the connecting portions 95 and 96.

このようにすれば、下方連結部96を小さくできる。また、上方連結部95、下方連結部96の形状は特に限定されない。   If it does in this way, the lower connection part 96 can be made small. Moreover, the shape of the upper connection part 95 and the lower connection part 96 is not specifically limited.

なお、各実施の形態において、上方連結部、下方連結部の断面形状は一定でなくても良い。   In each embodiment, the cross-sectional shapes of the upper connecting portion and the lower connecting portion may not be constant.

また、遊技機としてパチンコ遊技機に適用した例を示したが、その他の遊技機、例えばパチスロ、アレンジボール等の遊技機にも適用できる。   Moreover, although the example applied to the pachinko gaming machine was shown as a gaming machine, it is applicable also to other gaming machines, for example, gaming machines, such as a pachislot and an arrangement ball.

なお、特許請求の範囲に記載した以外の本発明の観点の代表的なものとして、次のものがあげられる。   In addition, the following can be mentioned as typical ones of aspects of the present invention other than those described in the claims.

(1)遊技機に設けられる電気的作動装置の制御を行うためにROM等の電子部品を実装した制御回路基板を収容する遊技機の基板ボックスにおいて、前記基板ボックスを構成する上蓋部材とベース部材とには、当該基板ボックスを閉じた状態において対向状態となる対向部を形成し、前記対向部の所定部位には、前記上蓋部材とベース部材とから各々突出させた連結部を介して重合する重合結合部を複数形成して、このうちのいずれか一つの重合結合部に対し締結部材により固着せしめて開放不能に封印する不正開放防止結合手段を設けており、前記不正開放防止結合手段の重合結合部の上蓋部材側の連結部とベース部材側の連結部とを、基板ボックスを遊技機の所定位置に取付けた状態において、その取付部のほぼ正面側から視認可能に形成した、ことを特徴とする遊技機の基板ボックス。   (1) In a board box of a gaming machine that houses a control circuit board on which an electronic component such as a ROM is mounted in order to control an electrical actuator provided in the gaming machine, an upper lid member and a base member that constitute the board box And forming a facing portion that is in a facing state when the substrate box is closed, and is superposed on a predetermined portion of the facing portion via a connecting portion protruding from the upper lid member and the base member, respectively. A plurality of polymerization bonding portions are formed, and an unauthorized opening prevention coupling means is provided that is fixed to any one of the polymerization bonding portions by a fastening member and sealed in an unopenable manner. The connecting portion on the upper lid member side of the coupling portion and the connecting portion on the base member side can be visually recognized from the front side of the mounting portion when the board box is mounted at a predetermined position of the gaming machine. It forms a substrate box of the gaming machine, characterized in that.

これにより、制御回路基板を収容する基板ボックスの上蓋部材とベース部材との対向部位に、上蓋部材とベース部材とから各々突出させた連結部を介して重合する重合結合部を複数形成して、このうちの一つを締結部材により固着することで、基板ボックスが開放不能に封印されると共に、これらの重合結合部の上蓋部材側の連結部とベース部材側の連結部とが、基板ボックスを遊技機の所定位置に取付けた状態において、その取付部のほぼ正面側から視認可能に形成される。   Thereby, a plurality of polymerization bonding portions that are polymerized via connection portions respectively protruding from the upper lid member and the base member are formed at the opposing portions of the upper lid member and the base member of the substrate box that accommodates the control circuit board, By fixing one of them with a fastening member, the substrate box is sealed so as not to be opened, and the connection portion on the upper lid member side and the connection portion on the base member side of these overlapping portions are connected to the substrate box. In a state where it is attached to a predetermined position of the gaming machine, it is formed so as to be visible from substantially the front side of the attachment portion.

このため、重合結合部により基板ボックスを破壊せずに開放、封印できると共に、例えば大当たりを不正に発生させるために、正規に固着してある重合結合部の連結部を切断して、基板ボックスを開けてしまい、制御回路基板のROMを不正なROMに交換、あるいはROMのデータを書き換える不正行為が行われることがあっても、これは遊技店における遊技機の保守点検時あるいは営業中に遊技機の球詰まり等を直す際等、容易に発見される。この場合、基板ボックスを開けたことを分かりにくくするために、重合結合部の上蓋部材側の連結部を切断せずにベース部材側の連結部のみが切断されることがあるが、このような隠蔽行為にあっても、ベース部材側の連結部の状態が視認され、把握できるため、その連結部の切断による不正も容易に速やかに発見される。したがって、不正の抑止にもなり、不正を防止できる。   For this reason, the substrate box can be opened and sealed without breaking the polymerization bond portion, and for example, in order to generate a jackpot illegally, the connection portion of the polymerization bond portion that is properly fixed is cut to remove the substrate box. Even if the control circuit board ROM is replaced with an illegal ROM or an illegal act of rewriting the ROM data is performed, this may occur at the maintenance check of the gaming machine in the amusement store or during business. It is easily discovered when correcting ball clogging. In this case, in order to make it difficult to understand that the substrate box has been opened, only the connecting portion on the base member side may be cut without cutting the connecting portion on the upper lid member side of the polymerization bonding portion. Even in the concealing action, the state of the connecting portion on the base member side can be visually recognized and grasped, and therefore fraud due to the cutting of the connecting portion can be easily and quickly discovered. Accordingly, fraud can be prevented and fraud can be prevented.

(2)前記ベース部材側の連結部の断面外形幅は、上蓋部材側の連結部の断面外形幅よりも大きい(1)に記載の遊技機の基板ボックス。   (2) The board box of the gaming machine according to (1), wherein a cross-sectional outer width of the connecting portion on the base member side is larger than a cross-sectional outer width of the connecting portion on the upper lid member side.

これにより、ベース部材側の連結部の断面外形幅は、上蓋部材側の連結部の断面外形幅よりも大きいので、基板ボックスを遊技機の所定位置に取付けた状態において、ベース部材側の連結部の状態を視認しやすくなり、その連結部が切断されているかどうかが容易に把握できる。   As a result, the cross-sectional outer width of the connecting portion on the base member side is larger than the cross-sectional outer width of the connecting portion on the upper lid member side, so that the connecting portion on the base member side in a state where the board box is mounted at a predetermined position of the gaming machine. It becomes easy to visually recognize the state, and it can be easily grasped whether or not the connecting portion is cut.
