The handle hole cover described in Patent Document 1 is provided with a body that is closed at one end to form a bag portion, the other end is opened, and the whole is bent in an approximately L shape, and is loosely fitted into the handle hole. Has been.

特開2004−49347号公報(第10−11頁、図6)Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 2004-49347 (page 10-11, FIG. 6)

上述したように、上記特許文献1に記載の取手孔カバーは、ほぼL字状に折曲されて形成されているため、持ち運びがし易くなっている。ところが、このような形状では、例えば射出成形などの低コストの工程で製造するのが非常に困難であるため、上記特許文献1に記載の取手孔カバーは、別々に製造された2個の部品を組み合わせることで形成されており、取手孔カバーの組立工数が増大するという問題があった。   As described above, the handle hole cover described in Patent Document 1 is formed so as to be bent substantially in an L shape, so that it is easy to carry. However, in such a shape, it is very difficult to manufacture by a low-cost process such as injection molding, for example. Therefore, the handle hole cover described in Patent Document 1 has two parts manufactured separately. There is a problem that the assembly man-hour of the handle hole cover increases.

The other second frame body obtained by dividing the cover into two parts, and a hinge part that joins and separates both the frame bodies, wherein the first frame body, the second frame body, and the hinge part are made of resin. The handle hole cover is formed integrally by combining the two frame bodies, and the first frame body and the second frame body respectively form the handle hole cover by combining them. It is formed on the peripheral edge of the opening when abutting off the outer surface of the housing of the handle hole periphery And Nji portion, wherein a vicinity of the opening of the handle hole cover has an insertion portion fitted formed on the back side of the flange portion, said first frame and said second frame are combined When the cover hole cover formed by is inserted from the outside of the housing into the handle hole with the closed back portion at the top, the flange portion is in contact with the outer surface of the housing The first frame body and the second frame body are joined together by the union so that the fitting insertion portion is fitted to the inner peripheral surface of the handle hole by the elasticity of the resin forming the handle hole cover. The cross-sectional outer shape of the fitting insertion portion when the hole cover is formed is substantially the same shape as the handle hole, and is formed to be the same size as or slightly larger than the handle hole. Depth dimension of the housing in which the handle hole is formed. Thickness of the side wall of the being formed substantially in the same, the first frame and the second frame, respectively, be one and the other obtained by dividing the handle hole cover in a plane perpendicular to the vertical section the hinge is characterized in that it is formed in the dividing plane of the inner side of the handle hole cover (claim 1).

また、本発明に係る遊技機用筐体の取手構造は、遊技機の筐体に透設された取手孔に嵌着され、奥部が閉塞され手前に開口を有し、垂直断面がほぼL字状の取手孔カバーを備えた遊技機用筐体の取手構造において、前記取手孔カバーが、該取手孔カバーを2分割した一方の第1枠体と、該取手孔カバーを2分割した他方の第2枠体と、前記両枠体を合体・分離自在に接合するヒンジ部とを備え、前記第1枠体、前記第2枠体および前記ヒンジ部は、樹脂により一体的に形成され、前記両枠体の合体により前記取手孔カバーが形成されるものであって、前記第1枠体および前記第2枠体は、それぞれ、合体により前記取手孔カバーを形成したときの開口の周縁に形成され、前記取手孔周縁の前記筐体の外側面に当接するフランジ部と、前記取手孔カバーの開口の近傍であって前記フランジ部の奥側に形成された嵌挿部とを備えており、前記第1枠体および前記第2枠体が合体されることにより形成される前記取手孔カバーが、閉塞された前記奥部を先頭に前記取手孔に前記筐体の外側から挿入されたときに、前記フランジ部が前記筐体の前記外側面に当接しつつ、前記取手孔カバーを形成する樹脂の弾性により前記嵌挿部が前記取手孔の内周面に嵌着するように、前記第1枠体および前記第2枠体は、それぞれ、合体により前記取手孔カバーを形成したときの前記嵌挿部の横断面外形が、前記取手孔とほぼ同一形状で、前記取手孔と同一サイズまたはそれより多少大きいサイズになるように形成され、前記嵌挿部の奥行き寸法が、前記取手孔が形成された前記筐体の側壁の厚さ寸法とほぼ同一に形成されており、前記第1枠体および前記第2枠体は、それぞれ、前記垂直断面と平行な面で前記取手孔カバーを分割した一方および他方であり、前記ヒンジ部は、前記取手孔カバーの前記分割面内に形成されていることを特徴としている(請求項2)。 In addition, the handle structure of the gaming machine housing according to the present invention is fitted into a handle hole formed through the housing of the gaming machine, closed at the back, has an opening in front, and has a vertical cross section of approximately L. In the handle structure of a gaming machine housing provided with a letter-shaped handle hole cover, the handle hole cover includes one first frame body obtained by dividing the handle hole cover into two parts and the other part obtained by dividing the handle hole cover into two parts. The second frame body and a hinge part that joins and separates both the frame bodies, and the first frame body, the second frame body, and the hinge part are integrally formed of resin, The handle hole cover is formed by combining the two frame bodies, and the first frame body and the second frame body are respectively formed on the periphery of the opening when the handle hole cover is formed by combining. A flange portion that is formed and abuts on an outer surface of the casing at a periphery of the handle hole; and The handle hole formed by combining the first frame body and the second frame body with a fitting insertion section formed in the vicinity of the opening of the cover and on the back side of the flange section. When the cover is inserted from the outside of the housing into the handle hole starting from the closed back, the flange hole is in contact with the outer surface of the housing to form the handle hole cover When the insertion hole cover is formed by combining the first frame body and the second frame body so that the insertion portion is fitted to the inner peripheral surface of the handle hole by the elasticity of the resin The cross-sectional outer shape of the insertion portion is substantially the same shape as the handle hole, and is formed to have the same size as the handle hole or slightly larger than the handle hole, and the depth dimension of the insertion portion is the handle hole. The thickness dimension of the side wall of the casing formed with URN is formed in the same, the first frame and the second frame are respectively the one and the other obtained by dividing the handle hole cover in the vertical section parallel to the plane, the hinge portion, the It is formed in the said division surface of a handle hole cover (Claim 2).

求項1,2の発明によれば、取手孔カバーを2分割した一方の第1枠体と取手孔カバーを2分割した他方の第2枠体とがヒンジ部により合体・分離自在に接合されているため、奥部が閉塞され手前に開口を有し、垂直断面がほぼL字状の持ち運びが容易に行える取手孔カバーでありながら、別々の部品から取手孔カバーを組み立てる工程が不要となり、取手孔カバーの組立工数を削減することができる。 According to Motomeko 1, 2 of the invention, the second frame of the other of the two divided first frame body and the handle hole cover while divided into two parts the handle hole cover coalescence-detachably joined by a hinge portion Therefore, the process of assembling the handle hole cover from separate parts is not necessary, although it is a handle hole cover that is closed at the back and has an opening in the front, and has a substantially L-shaped vertical cross section. The assembly man-hour for the handle hole cover can be reduced.

また、第1枠体、第2枠体およびヒンジ部が樹脂により一体的に形成されているため、奥部が閉塞され手前に開口を有し、垂直断面がほぼL字状の取手孔カバーでありながら、例えば第1枠体と第2枠体とが互いに分離した状態となるように製造することにより、取手孔カバーを例えば射出成形などの低コストの工程で製造することができる。In addition, since the first frame body, the second frame body, and the hinge portion are integrally formed of resin, the back portion is closed and has an opening in the front, and the vertical cross section is a substantially L-shaped handle hole cover. However, for example, by manufacturing the first frame and the second frame so as to be separated from each other, the handle hole cover can be manufactured by a low-cost process such as injection molding.

また、第1枠体および第2枠体の合体により取手孔カバーを形成すると、その開口の周縁に形成されたフランジ部が取手孔周縁の筐体の外側面に当接するため、フランジ部がストッパの役目を果たすことで取手孔カバーが筐体の内部に嵌まり込んでしまうのを未然に防止することができる。 In addition , when the handle hole cover is formed by combining the first frame body and the second frame body, the flange portion formed at the periphery of the opening contacts the outer surface of the casing at the periphery of the handle hole, so the flange portion is a stopper. By fulfilling this role, it is possible to prevent the handle hole cover from being fitted into the housing.

また、第1枠体および第2枠体の合体により取手孔カバーを形成したときの開口の近傍であってフランジ部の奥側に形成された嵌挿部の横断面外形が取手孔とほぼ同一形状で、取手孔と同一サイズまたは多少大きいサイズになるように第1枠体および第2枠体がそれぞれ形成され、嵌挿部の奥行き寸法が、取手孔が形成された筐体の側壁の厚さ寸法とほぼ同一に形成されているため、第1枠体と第2枠体とを合体させて取手孔カバーを形成した状態で取手孔に押し込むだけで、樹脂の持つ弾性により取手孔カバーの嵌挿部を取手孔の内周面に嵌着させることができる。したがって、取手孔カバーを筐体に固定するための固定部材が不要となるため部品点数を削減でき、その固定作業が不要となるため作業効率を向上できる。Further, the cross-sectional outer shape of the fitting insertion portion formed near the opening when the handle hole cover is formed by combining the first frame body and the second frame body and formed on the back side of the flange portion is substantially the same as the handle hole. The first frame body and the second frame body are formed so as to be the same size as the handle hole or slightly larger in size, and the depth dimension of the fitting insertion portion is the thickness of the side wall of the housing in which the handle hole is formed. Since the first frame and the second frame are combined to form the handle hole cover, the handle hole cover is formed by the elasticity of the resin. The fitting insertion portion can be fitted to the inner peripheral surface of the handle hole. Accordingly, a fixing member for fixing the handle hole cover to the housing is not required, so that the number of parts can be reduced and the fixing work is not required, so that work efficiency can be improved.

そして、請求項の発明によれば、取手孔カバーを垂直断面と直交する面で2分割した一方の第1枠体と他方の第2枠体とが、取手孔カバーの奥部側の分割面内に形成されたヒンジ部により合体・分離自在に接合されているため、奥部が閉塞され手前に開口を有し、垂直断面がほぼL字状の持ち運びが容易に行える取手孔カバーでありながら、別々の部品から取手孔カバーを組み立てる工程が不要となり、取手孔カバーの組立工数を削減することができる。 Then, according to the invention of claim 1, the first frame body while divided into two parts by a plane perpendicular to the handle hole cover and vertical section and the other of the second frame is the division of the inner part side of the handle hole cover It is a handle hole cover that can be easily carried with an L-shaped vertical section that is closed at the back and has an opening in front because it is joined and separable by a hinge part formed in the plane. However, the process of assembling the handle hole cover from separate parts becomes unnecessary, and the number of assembly steps for the handle hole cover can be reduced.

また、請求項の発明によれば、取手孔カバーを垂直断面と平行な面で2分割した一方の第1枠体と他方の第2枠体とが、取手孔カバーの分割面内に形成されたヒンジ部により合体・分離自在に接合されているため、奥部が閉塞され手前に開口を有し、垂直断面がほぼL字状の持ち運びが容易に行える取手孔カバーでありながら、別々の部品から取手孔カバーを組み立てる工程が不要となり、取手孔カバーの組立工数を削減することができる。 According to the invention of claim 2 , one first frame body and the other second frame body obtained by dividing the handle hole cover into two by a plane parallel to the vertical cross section are formed in the split surface of the handle hole cover. Because the hinge part is joined and separably joined, the back part is closed, the front part has an opening, and the vertical cross section is an L-shaped handle hole cover that can be easily carried. The process of assembling the handle hole cover from the parts becomes unnecessary, and the number of steps for assembling the handle hole cover can be reduced.

When the handle hole cover 35 is formed by combining the first frame body 41 and the second frame body 43, the fitting insertion portions 417 and 437 have a cross-sectional outer shape that is substantially the same as the handle hole 33. It is formed to be the same size as 33 or slightly larger than that. Further, the depth dimensions of the fitting insertion portions 417 and 437 are substantially the same as the thickness dimension of the side wall 31 of the housing 3.

ヒンジ部45は、薄肉に形成されて可撓性を有するとともに、取手孔カバー35の奥部37側の分割面、すなわち垂直断面と直交する鉛直面内に形成されており、これらによって第1枠体41および第2枠体43を合体・分離自在に接合している。なお、この薄肉のヒンジ部45が可撓性を有するような樹脂(この実施形態では例えばポリプロピレン)で取手孔カバー35が形成されている。   The hinge portion 45 is formed to be thin and flexible, and is formed in a split surface on the back portion 37 side of the handle hole cover 35, that is, in a vertical plane orthogonal to the vertical cross section. The body 41 and the second frame 43 are joined so as to be combined and separable. The handle hole cover 35 is formed of a resin (for example, polypropylene in this embodiment) such that the thin hinge portion 45 has flexibility.

次に、取手孔カバー35の取手孔33への取付けについて説明する。取手孔カバー35は、第1枠体41と第2枠体43とが分離した状態、すなわち例えば図4に示す状態になるように、例えば射出成形による一体成形によって製造される。そして、まず、例えば図2に示すように、可撓性を有するヒンジ部45を撓ませて第1枠体41と第2枠体43とを合体させる。これによって、奥部37が閉塞され手前に開口39を有し、垂直断面がほぼL字状のほぼ四角筒状の取手孔カバー35が形成される。   Next, attachment of the handle hole cover 35 to the handle hole 33 will be described. The handle hole cover 35 is manufactured by integral molding, for example, by injection molding so that the first frame body 41 and the second frame body 43 are separated, that is, for example, the state shown in FIG. Then, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, the first frame body 41 and the second frame body 43 are united by bending the flexible hinge portion 45. As a result, the rear portion 37 is closed and an opening 39 is formed in front, and a handle hole cover 35 having a substantially rectangular tube shape with a substantially L-shaped vertical section is formed.

このように形成された取手孔カバー35を筐体3の側壁31の外側(図6中、左側)から奥部37を先頭に取手孔33に挿入すると、嵌挿部417,437が取手孔33に嵌まり込むとともに、フランジ部415,435が取手孔33の周縁の筐体3の外側面312に設けられたフランジ嵌挿用凹部313に当接する。このとき、嵌挿部417,437の横断面外形が取手孔33と同一サイズまたはそれより多少大きいサイズであるため、樹脂製であることにより取手孔カバー35自身が持つ弾性によって、嵌挿部417,437が取手孔33の内周面331に嵌着され、これによって取手孔カバー35が筐体3の取手孔33に固定される。   When the handle hole cover 35 formed in this way is inserted into the handle hole 33 from the outside (left side in FIG. 6) of the side wall 31 of the housing 3 with the back portion 37 at the head, the fitting insertion portions 417 and 437 are inserted into the handle hole 33. The flange portions 415 and 435 come into contact with a flange fitting insertion recess 313 provided on the outer surface 312 of the casing 3 at the periphery of the handle hole 33. At this time, since the cross-sectional outer shape of the fitting insertion portions 417 and 437 is the same size as or slightly larger than that of the handle hole 33, the fitting insertion portion 417 is made of resin and due to the elasticity of the handle hole cover 35 itself. , 437 are fitted into the inner peripheral surface 331 of the handle hole 33, whereby the handle hole cover 35 is fixed to the handle hole 33 of the housing 3.

以上説明したように、第1実施形態によれば、取手孔カバー35を2分割した一方の第1枠体41と取手孔カバー35を2分割した他方の第2枠体43とがヒンジ部45により合体・分離自在に接合されているため、奥部37が閉塞され手前に開口39を有し、垂直断面がほぼL字状の持ち運びが容易に行える取手孔カバー35でありながら、別々の部品から取手孔カバーを組み立てる工程が不要となり、取手孔カバー35の組立工数を削減することができる。   As described above, according to the first embodiment, the hinge part 45 includes the first frame body 41 obtained by dividing the handle hole cover 35 into two parts and the other second frame body 43 obtained by dividing the handle hole cover 35 into two parts. Since the rear portion 37 is closed and an opening 39 is provided on the front side, and the handle section cover 35 has a substantially L-shaped vertical section and can be easily carried, separate parts are provided. Thus, the process of assembling the handle hole cover becomes unnecessary, and the number of steps for assembling the handle hole cover 35 can be reduced.

また、第1実施形態によれば、取手孔カバー35は薄肉のヒンジ部45が可撓性を有するような樹脂製で、第1枠体41、第2枠体43およびヒンジ部45が一体的に形成されているため、簡易な構成のヒンジ部45で第1枠体41および第2枠体43を合体・分離自在に接合することができる。また、第1枠体41と第2枠体43とが互いに分離した状態となるように製造することにより、奥部37が閉塞され手前に開口39を有し、垂直断面がほぼL字状の取手孔カバー35でありながら、取手孔カバー35を例えば射出成形などの低コストの工程で製造することが可能になる。   In addition, according to the first embodiment, the handle hole cover 35 is made of resin such that the thin hinge 45 is flexible, and the first frame 41, the second frame 43, and the hinge 45 are integrated. Therefore, the first frame body 41 and the second frame body 43 can be joined together and separable by the hinge portion 45 having a simple configuration. Further, by manufacturing the first frame body 41 and the second frame body 43 so as to be separated from each other, the back portion 37 is closed and has an opening 39 in the front, and the vertical section is substantially L-shaped. Although it is the handle hole cover 35, the handle hole cover 35 can be manufactured by a low-cost process such as injection molding.

また、第1実施形態によれば、第1枠体41および第2枠体43の嵌挿部417,437の横断面外形が取手孔33と同一サイズまたはそれより多少大きいサイズとなるように形成されているため、樹脂製であることにより取手孔カバー35自身が持つ弾性によって嵌挿部417,437が取手孔33の内周面331に嵌着される。したがって、取手孔に遊嵌されるため筐体に固定するための構成が別途必要な上記特許文献1に記載の取手孔カバーに比べて、取手孔カバー35の構成および取手孔33への取付作業を簡素化できる。   Further, according to the first embodiment, the cross-sectional outer shapes of the fitting insertion portions 417 and 437 of the first frame body 41 and the second frame body 43 are formed to be the same size as or slightly larger than the handle hole 33. Therefore, the fitting insertion portions 417 and 437 are fitted to the inner peripheral surface 331 of the handle hole 33 by the elasticity of the handle hole cover 35 itself due to being made of resin. Therefore, the structure of the handle hole cover 35 and the mounting work to the handle hole 33 are compared with the handle hole cover described in Patent Document 1 that requires a separate structure to be fixed to the housing because it is loosely fitted in the handle hole. Can be simplified.

次に、本発明に係る遊技機用筐体の取手構造の第2実施形態について説明する。図7は第2実施形態の取手孔カバーの斜視図で、第1枠体と第2枠体とが分離した状態を示している。第2実施形態の取手孔カバー35は第1実施形態と同一形状に形成されている。すなわち、取手孔カバー35は、例えば射出成形により一体成形された樹脂製で、奥部37が閉塞され手前に開口39を有し、垂直断面がほぼL字状のほぼ四角筒状になっている。また、取手孔カバー35の開口39は、第1実施形態と同様に、取手孔33とほぼ同一形状、すなわち横長のほぼ矩形に形成されている。   Next, a second embodiment of the handle structure for a gaming machine casing according to the present invention will be described. FIG. 7 is a perspective view of the handle hole cover of the second embodiment, showing a state in which the first frame and the second frame are separated. The handle hole cover 35 of the second embodiment is formed in the same shape as the first embodiment. That is, the handle hole cover 35 is made of, for example, a resin integrally molded by injection molding, has a rear portion 37 closed, has an opening 39 in the front, and has a substantially rectangular tube shape with a substantially L-shaped vertical section. . Moreover, the opening 39 of the handle hole cover 35 is formed in substantially the same shape as the handle hole 33, that is, a horizontally long substantially rectangular shape, as in the first embodiment.

この第2実施形態が上記第1実施形態と相違する点は、第1実施形態では、垂直断面と直交する面で取手孔カバー35を分割して第1枠体41および第2枠体43を形成しているのに対して、第2実施形態では、垂直断面と平行な面で取手孔カバー35を分割して第1枠体および第2枠体を形成している点である。すなわち、取手孔カバー35は、垂直断面と平行な面で取手孔カバー35を分割した一方の第1枠体51と、他方の第2枠体53と、第1枠体51および第2枠体53を合体・分離自在に接合するヒンジ部55とを備え、第1枠体51および第2枠体53の合体により取手孔カバー35が形成されるようになっている。   The second embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that, in the first embodiment, the handle hole cover 35 is divided by a plane orthogonal to the vertical cross section to divide the first frame body 41 and the second frame body 43. In contrast, in the second embodiment, the handle hole cover 35 is divided by a plane parallel to the vertical cross section to form the first frame body and the second frame body. That is, the handle hole cover 35 includes one first frame 51 obtained by dividing the handle hole cover 35 along a plane parallel to the vertical cross section, the other second frame 53, the first frame 51, and the second frame. And a hinge portion 55 that joins and separably connects the first frame body 51 and the second frame body 53 so that the handle hole cover 35 is formed.

ヒンジ部55は、薄肉に形成されて可撓性を有するとともに、取手孔カバー35の分割面内に形成されており、これらによって第1枠体51および第2枠体53を合体・分離自在に接合している。なお、第1実施形態と同様に、薄肉のヒンジ部55が可撓性を有するような樹脂(この実施形態では例えばポリプロピレン)で取手孔カバー35が形成されている。   The hinge portion 55 is formed to be thin and flexible, and is formed in the dividing surface of the handle hole cover 35, so that the first frame body 51 and the second frame body 53 can be combined and separated. It is joined. Similar to the first embodiment, the handle hole cover 35 is formed of a resin (for example, polypropylene) in which the thin hinge portion 55 has flexibility.

第1枠体51および第2枠体53は、それぞれ、ヒンジ部55の一方(図7中、上左および上右)側に、垂直断面と平行な分割面で分割された分割端面511,531を備えている。また、第1枠体51および第2枠体53は、それぞれ、ヒンジ部55の他方(図7中、下左および下右)側に、上記分割面で分割された分割端面512,532を備えている。すなわち、第1枠体51および第2枠体53は、ヒンジ部55を中心としてほぼ左右対称に形成されており、取手孔カバー35の左半部を第1枠体51が形成し、取手孔カバー35の右半部を第2枠体53が形成している。   The first frame body 51 and the second frame body 53 are respectively divided end surfaces 511 and 531 divided on one side of the hinge portion 55 (upper left and upper right in FIG. 7) by a dividing surface parallel to the vertical section. It has. Each of the first frame 51 and the second frame 53 includes divided end surfaces 512 and 532 divided by the divided surfaces on the other side (lower left and lower right in FIG. 7) of the hinge portion 55. ing. That is, the first frame 51 and the second frame 53 are formed substantially symmetrically with respect to the hinge portion 55, and the first frame 51 forms the left half of the handle hole cover 35. A second frame 53 forms the right half of the cover 35.

第1枠体51の分割端面511および第2枠体53の分割端面531は、それぞれ薄肉に形成された重畳部513,533を備え、合体により取手孔カバー35を形成したときに、この重畳部513,533により分割端面511と分割端面531とが互いに重なるようになっている。同様に、第1枠体51の分割端面512および第2枠体53の分割端面532は、それぞれ薄肉に形成された重畳部514,534を備え、合体により取手孔カバー35を形成したときに、この重畳部514,534により分割端面512と分割端面532とが互いに重なるようになっている。   The divided end surface 511 of the first frame body 51 and the divided end surface 531 of the second frame body 53 are each provided with overlapping portions 513 and 533 formed to be thin, and this overlapping portion is formed when the handle hole cover 35 is formed by combining. The split end surface 511 and the split end surface 531 overlap each other by 513 and 533. Similarly, the divided end surface 512 of the first frame 51 and the divided end surface 532 of the second frame 53 include overlapping portions 514 and 534 that are formed thinly, respectively, and when the handle hole cover 35 is formed by combining, The overlapping end portions 512 and 534 allow the divided end surface 512 and the divided end surface 532 to overlap each other.

また、第1枠体51および第2枠体53は、それぞれ、合体により取手孔カバー35を形成したときの開口39の周縁に形成されたフランジ部515,535を備えている。このフランジ部515,535は、それぞれ、開口39の端部から開口面に平行に外向きに延びて形成されている。   Moreover, the 1st frame 51 and the 2nd frame 53 are each provided with the flange parts 515 and 535 formed in the periphery of the opening 39 when the handle hole cover 35 is formed by uniting. The flange portions 515 and 535 are formed to extend outward from the end portion of the opening 39 in parallel to the opening surface.

また、第1枠体51および第2枠体53は、それぞれ、開口39の近傍、すなわちフランジ部515,535のすぐ奥側に、所定の奥行き寸法を有する嵌挿部517,537を備えている。この嵌挿部517,537は、第1枠体51および第2枠体53の合体により取手孔カバー35を形成したときに、その横断面外形が、取手孔33とほぼ同一形状で、取手孔33と同一サイズまたはそれより多少大きいサイズになるように形成されている。また、嵌挿部517,537の奥行き寸法は、筐体3の側壁31の厚さ寸法とほぼ同一になっている。   The first frame body 51 and the second frame body 53 include fitting insertion portions 517 and 537 having predetermined depth dimensions in the vicinity of the opening 39, that is, immediately behind the flange portions 515 and 535, respectively. . When the handle hole cover 35 is formed by combining the first frame body 51 and the second frame body 53, the fitting insertion portions 517 and 537 have a cross-sectional outer shape that is substantially the same as the handle hole 33, It is formed to be the same size as 33 or slightly larger than that. Further, the depth dimensions of the fitting insertion portions 517 and 537 are substantially the same as the thickness dimension of the side wall 31 of the housing 3.

次に、取手孔カバー35の取手孔33への取付けについて説明する。取手孔カバー35は、第1枠体51と第2枠体53とが分離した状態、すなわち図7に示す状態になるように、例えば射出成形による一体成形によって製造される。そして、まず、可撓性を有するヒンジ部55を撓ませて第1枠体51と第2枠体53とを合体させる。これによって、上記第1実施形態と同様に、奥部37が閉塞され手前に開口39を有し、垂直断面がほぼL字状のほぼ四角筒状の取手孔カバー35が形成される。   Next, attachment of the handle hole cover 35 to the handle hole 33 will be described. The handle hole cover 35 is manufactured by integral molding, for example, by injection molding so that the first frame 51 and the second frame 53 are separated, that is, the state shown in FIG. First, the flexible hinge portion 55 is bent to join the first frame body 51 and the second frame body 53 together. As a result, similarly to the first embodiment, the rear portion 37 is closed, the opening 39 is formed in the front, and the handle hole cover 35 having a substantially rectangular tube shape having a substantially L-shaped vertical section is formed.

取手孔カバー35の取手孔33への挿入以降は、上記第1実施形態と同様である。すなわち、このように形成された取手孔カバー35を筐体3の側壁31の外側から奥部37を先頭に取手孔33に挿入すると、嵌挿部517,537が取手孔33に嵌まり込むとともに、フランジ部515,535が取手孔33の周縁の筐体3の外側面312(図6)に設けられたフランジ嵌挿用凹部313(図6)に当接する。このとき、嵌挿部517,537の横断面外形が取手孔33と同一サイズまたはそれより多少大きいサイズであるため、樹脂製であることにより取手孔カバー35自身が持つ弾性によって、嵌挿部517,537が取手孔33の内周面331(図6)に嵌着され、これによって取手孔カバー35が筐体3の取手孔33に固定される。   Subsequent insertion of the handle hole cover 35 into the handle hole 33 is the same as in the first embodiment. That is, when the handle hole cover 35 formed in this manner is inserted into the handle hole 33 from the outside of the side wall 31 of the housing 3 with the back portion 37 at the head, the fitting insertion portions 517 and 537 are fitted into the handle hole 33. The flange portions 515 and 535 are brought into contact with a flange fitting insertion recess 313 (FIG. 6) provided on the outer surface 312 (FIG. 6) of the casing 3 at the periphery of the handle hole 33. At this time, since the cross-sectional outer shape of the fitting insertion portions 517 and 537 is the same size as or slightly larger than that of the handle hole 33, the fitting insertion portion 517 is made of resin and due to the elasticity of the handle hole cover 35 itself. , 537 are fitted into the inner peripheral surface 331 (FIG. 6) of the handle hole 33, whereby the handle hole cover 35 is fixed to the handle hole 33 of the housing 3.

以上説明したように、第2実施形態では垂直断面と平行な面で取手孔カバー35を分割して第1枠体51および第2枠体53を形成している点のみが第1実施形態と異なり、ヒンジ部55により第1枠体51および第2枠体53を合体することで第1実施形態と同一形状の取手孔カバー35を形成しているため、第2実施形態も第1実施形態と同様の効果を奏することができる。   As described above, the second embodiment is different from the first embodiment only in that the handle hole cover 35 is divided by the plane parallel to the vertical section to form the first frame body 51 and the second frame body 53. Unlike the first embodiment, the first frame 51 and the second frame 53 are combined by the hinge portion 55 to form the handle hole cover 35 having the same shape as that of the first embodiment. Therefore, the second embodiment is also the first embodiment. The same effect can be achieved.

なお、本発明は上記各実施形態に限定されるものではなく、その趣旨を逸脱しない限りにおいて上述したもの以外に種々の変更を行うことが可能である。例えば、上記第2実施形態では、フランジ部515とフランジ部535とが互いに重なる重なり部を備えていないが、上記第1実施形態と同様に、重なり部を備えるようにしてもよい。   The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various modifications other than those described above can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. For example, the flange portion 515 and the flange portion 535 are not provided with an overlapping portion in the second embodiment, but may be provided with an overlapping portion as in the first embodiment.

また、上記各実施形態では、取手孔カバー35を形成する樹脂をポリプロピレンとしているが、本発明はこれに限られず、薄肉に形成されたヒンジ部45,55が可撓性を有するような樹脂であればよい。また、上記各実施形態では、取手孔33はほぼ矩形にしているが、これに限られず、他の形状でもよい。この場合、取手孔カバー35の横断面外形および開口39の形状は、取手孔33の形状に合わせてほぼ同一形状に形成すればよい。また、上記各実施形態ではスロットマシンに適用しているが、これに限られず、パチンコ機などの他の遊技機に適用してもよい。   In each of the above embodiments, the resin forming the handle hole cover 35 is polypropylene. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the hinge portions 45 and 55 formed to be thin are made of a flexible resin. I just need it. Moreover, in each said embodiment, although the handle hole 33 is made into the substantially rectangular shape, it is not restricted to this, Another shape may be sufficient. In this case, the cross-sectional outer shape of the handle hole cover 35 and the shape of the opening 39 may be formed in substantially the same shape according to the shape of the handle hole 33.
