Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine.

  One type of gaming machine is a pachinko machine. In such a pachinko machine, a door body is generally provided on the front side of a gaming machine main body having a gaming area. The door body is usually formed with a window portion on which a plate glass is attached, and the game area can be visually recognized through the window portion. Such a door body is supported so as to be openable and closable with respect to a rectangular inner frame in a gaming machine main body, for example, a pachinko machine. Further, the pachinko machine is provided with a locking device that restricts the opening of the door in the closed state (see, for example, Patent Document 1). As described above, the locking device provided in the pachinko machine includes a bag body extending rearward from the door body, a bag member having a claw portion protruding in a direction intersecting with the opening / closing direction of the door body, and a gaming machine body (inside And a receiving member having a support portion that is locked to the claw portion in the closed state of the door body, and a rotating operation is performed when the door body in the locked state is opened to be unlocked. A cylinder lock.

In recent years, there have been fraudulent acts such as forcing a metal piece or the like from between the outer frame and the inner frame into the gaming machine to open the door. In response to this, measures are taken such as providing an informing means for informing the opening of the door or installing a video camera. However, it is difficult to always monitor in miscellaneous business, and there is a concern that the above fraudulent activity cannot be found. In other words, a store clerk is placed in the hall where the gaming machine is installed, but if the above fraud is performed in a short time, it is difficult to find the fraud and the fraud has been done. There may be situations where you do not notice. In addition, in the monitoring by the hall computer, since the gaming machine is not directly monitored, there is a possibility that the countermeasure will be delayed, and there is a possibility that it will be as expected by the fraudster.

  On the other hand, even if it is going to close the door body in an open state, unless the rotation operation of a cylinder lock is performed, it can be considered that the door body cannot be closed completely. More specifically, the front end portion (front end edge) and the support portion of the collar member are extended in a direction orthogonal to the opening / closing direction of the door body, and the door body in the open state is not operated by rotating the cylinder lock. In the case of closing, the configuration is such that the tip of the heel member and the support portion are in contact with each other before the door body is closed, and the support portion cannot be moved relative to the claw portion side. It is done. By adopting such a configuration, it becomes easy to find an unauthorized opening of the door body, and as a result, it is possible to suppress such an illegal act.

  However, in a hall where a plurality of types of gaming machines are installed, a conventional gaming machine that can be closed simply by pushing in the door body without rotating the cylinder lock, and as described above, If there is a game machine that can not be closed without turning operation, even if the game machine has a configuration that can not be closed without turning the cylinder lock, There is a risk that a store clerk or the like will accidentally try to close or close the door body without performing the unlocking operation of the cylinder lock. Due to this, there is a concern that a large force is applied to the locking device or the like, and the locking device or the like is damaged.

  Note that the above-described problem is not limited to pachinko machines, but also applies to other gaming machines such as a slot machine and a multi-function machine of a pachinko machine and a slot machine.

  The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-described problems, and its purpose is to provide a structure in which a door cannot be closed unless a predetermined unlocking operation is performed. An object of the present invention is to provide a gaming machine capable of suppressing problems caused when an attempt is made to close and close a door body without performing an operation.

  In the following, each means suitable for solving the above-mentioned purpose will be described in terms of items. In addition, the effect etc. peculiar to the means to respond | correspond as needed are added.

Means 1. A door body that is supported so as to be openable and closable relative to the left and right sides of the gaming machine body;
Locking means for locking the door body to the gaming machine main body at the left and right other sides of the gaming machine main body,
The locking means is
A locking member in which a predetermined unlocking operation is performed when the door body in the locked state is in an unlocked state that can be opened;
A saddle member provided on one side of the door body or the gaming machine main body, and a receiving member provided on the other side and engaged with the saddle member in the closed state of the door body,
The flange member includes a claw portion having a locking side portion for locking the support portion provided on the receiving member in the closed state of the door body,
One of the hook member and the receiving member is interlocked with the unlocking operation of the lock member, and the door is locked from the locking position where the support portion is locked to the claw portion to restrict the opening of the door body. Move to an unlocked position that allows the body to open,
The locking means includes an urging means for urging one of the hook member or the receiving member that is movable between the locking position and the unlocking position toward the locking position.
When the unlocking operation of the locking member is performed, one of the collar member or the receiving member that is movable between the locking position and the unlocking position is provided with respect to the door body. Closure in which the flange member and the receiving member do not come into contact with each other by applying a force in the closing direction, or the flange member and the receiving member are in sliding contact to allow the door body to move in the closing direction. When in the permissible position, the door can be closed by applying a force in the closing direction to the door in the open state,
When one of the collar member or the receiving member that is movably provided between the locking position and the unlocking position is closer to the locking position than the closing permission position, the opening member is in the open state. Even when a force is applied to the door body in the closing direction, the movement in the closing direction is restricted in a state where the flange member and the receiving member are in contact with each other and the door body is opened at a predetermined angle. And
While provided on one of the door body or the gaming machine main body, the movable body is provided so as to be relatively movable with respect to the one,
The movable part is in a state in which one of the hook member or the receiving member provided to be movable between the locking position and the unlocking position is located closer to the locking position than the closing permission position. In addition, the door body or the gaming machine main body is disposed at a position where it can come into contact with the other where the movable portion is not provided,
A first position that is a position when movement of the door body in a closing direction is restricted in a state where the flange member and the receiving member are in contact with each other and the door body is opened at a predetermined angle; It is configured to be movable between a second position located when the door body is in an open state rather than being in a position,
One of the door body or the gaming machine main body provided with the movable portion includes a buffer urging means for urging the movable portion toward the second position.
The door which is in an open state in a state where one of the collar member or the receiving member which is movable between the locking position and the unlocking position is located closer to the locking position than the closing permission position By closing the body, the movable part provided on one of the door body or the gaming machine main body and the other are in contact with each other, and further force is applied to the door body in the closing direction from the contact state. In addition, the movable part is pushed by the other and moved from the second position to the first position side.

  According to the means 1, when the door body in the open state is moved in the closing direction without performing the unlocking operation of the locking member, the hook member and the receiving member are in contact with each other and the door body is moved in the closing direction. Is regulated. Therefore, since it cannot be closed even if the door body is pushed unless the unlocking operation of the lock member is performed, it is easy to discover that the door body has been illegally opened. As a result, unauthorized opening of the door body, and consequently, illegal acts performed on the inside of the gaming machine from between the door body and the gaming machine main body can be suppressed.

  Further, when one of the collar member or the receiving member that is movable between the locking position and the unlocking position is closer to the locking position than the closing allowance position, that is, when the door body cannot be closed, it is opened. When the door body in the state is moved in the closing direction, the movable portion in the second position comes into contact with the other of the door body or the gaming machine main body where the movable portion is not provided. By further applying a force in the closing direction to the door body from the contact state (pressing the movable part and the other), the movable part is pushed by the other side and the first position side from the second position. Move to. The movable part is urged to the second position side by the buffer urging means, and when the movable part moves from the second position to the first position side, the other part is pushed back. Force to act. Thus, it is possible to absorb the force generated when the door body and the gaming machine main body are pressed when the door body cannot be closed. Therefore, when the collar member and the receiving member come into contact with each other and the movement of the door body in the closing direction is restricted, the force applied to the collar member and the receiving member can be reduced. It is possible to prevent deformation and damage.

  Furthermore, since the impact resulting from the collision between the flange member and the receiving member can be absorbed and alleviated, it is possible to suppress the risk that the impact will be transmitted to members other than the flange member and the receiving member. . Therefore, for example, it is possible to prevent a possibility that the resin member constituting the door body or the gaming machine main body is damaged by the impact or that the control board is hindered.

  It should be noted that “one of the saddle member or the receiving member may include a movable portion provided to be movable relative to the door body or the gaming machine main body on which the one is provided”. For example, in the case where a movable portion is provided at a location different from the saddle member or receiving member provided on one of the door body or the gaming machine main body, the unlocking operation of the lock member may not be performed. However, when closing the door body, the movable part provided on one side of the door body or the gaming machine main body always comes into contact with the other. For this reason, when the unlocking operation of the lock member is performed to close the door body, a force for moving the movable portion from the second position to the first position side against the urging force of the buffer urging means is necessary. It becomes.

  In contrast, when the unlocking operation of the lock member can be performed by providing the movable part on the hook member or the receiving member and the door body can be closed, the movable part provided on one of the hook member or the receiving member is on the other side. It can be set as the structure which does not contact. That is, “the movable portion is a state in which one of the collar member or the receiving member, which is movable between the locking position and the unlocking position, is positioned closer to the locking position than the closing allowance position. The movable member is disposed at a position where it can come into contact with the other of the flange member or the receiving member that is not provided with the movable portion, and the movable portion is locked with the locking member of the flange member or the receiving member. When one of the movable members provided between the position and the unlocked position is in the closing allowable position, the first member is disposed at a position that does not come into contact with the other member that is not provided with the movable part. Can be adopted. Therefore, when the door cannot be closed, the movable member provided on one of the collar member or the receiving member contacts the other and moves from the second position to the first position side to move the collar member and the receiving member. When the door is closed, the movable part provided on one of the saddle member or the receiving member is provided with the other (the movable part of the door or the gaming machine main body is provided). Therefore, the door body can be closed without receiving a force to push back the door body from the movable portion (buffer urging means). As a result, when the unlocking operation of the lock member is performed to move the door body in the closing direction, the door body can be smoothly closed.

  The state in which the movement of the door body in the closing direction is restricted is, for example, when the door body and the gaming machine main body are pressed when the door body cannot be closed by the urging force of the buffer urging means. A state where all of the generated force is absorbed (in this case, the relative movement of the support portion toward the claw portion stops before the movable portion reaches the first position), or the movable portion of the door body or the gaming machine main body The other of the door body or the gaming machine main body where the movable portion is not provided when the movable portion changes from the second position to the first position with respect to the saddle member or the receiving member provided on one side In the case of providing a movement restricting portion that contacts the receiving member or the saddle member provided on the door and restricts the movement of the door body in the closing direction, the movement restricting portion provided on one of the saddle member or the receiving member The other is in contact, or one of the saddle member or the receiving member The moving part is provided with a moving part from the second position to the first position with respect to one of the door body or the gaming machine main body provided with the saddle member or the receiving member provided with the moving part. In the case of providing a stopper portion that contacts and restricts further movement of the movable portion, a state in which the movable portion is in contact with the stopper portion, and the like can be mentioned. In addition, examples of the lock member include a cylinder lock in which a key is inserted and rotated, and a card key into which a card-like key is inserted.

  "The movable part is a state in which one of the hook member or the receiving member that is movable between the locking position and the unlocking position is located closer to the locking position than the closing permission position. Is located in a position where it can come into contact with the other of the door body or the main body of the gaming machine where the movable part is not provided. When force is applied to the body in the closing direction, the door and the receiving member come into contact with each other before the door body is opened at a predetermined angle and the movement in the closing direction is restricted. The meaning that the movable part provided in one of the body or the gaming machine main body always comes into contact with the other is included. However, in a state where the door body is largely opened, the movable part provided on one of the door body or the gaming machine main body does not contact the other.

  In this means, not only the case where either the saddle member or the receiving member is configured to be movable with respect to the door body or the gaming machine main body to which the one is attached, but also the saddle member and the receiving member. It is the meaning also including the case where both of the members are configured to be movable with respect to the door body or the gaming machine body to which each member is attached. That is, the locking position, the unlocking position, and the closing allowance position are relative positions with respect to one of the flange member and the receiving member. In addition, either the hook member or the receiving member may be moved in conjunction with the unlocking operation of the locking member, or both the hook member and the receiving member may be moved in conjunction with the unlocking operation of the locking member. It is good also as composition to do. When the latter configuration is employed, the direction opposite to the direction in which the support portion in the state of being locked to the claw portion is released from the claw portion by the urging means (corresponding to each) of the flange member and the receiving member. You may bias to the side (locking position side). In this case, the urging force acting on the flange member is opposite to the urging force acting on the receiving member.

  The closing permissible position refers to a state in which the door body cannot be closed even if a force is applied to the door body in the closing direction of the heel member (the locking position and the unlocking position of the heel member or the receiving member). Part (regulatory wall part) with which the support part (receiving member) can come into contact when the movable part is in the first position when one of the movable parts is located closer to the locking position than the closing permissible position ) And the support part are in a state in which the support part can get over the restriction wall part and close the door body (when one of the saddle member or the receiving member that is movably provided is in the closing permissible position) ) Of the saddle member or the receiving member when switching to a state where the support portion comes into contact with the portion (guide side portion) where the support portion can come into contact (sliding contact) by applying a force to the door body It is one position provided to be movable between the locking position and the unlocking position.

  For example, when the boundary between the regulating wall and the guide side is sharp, and among the supporting parts, the tip part (tip face) and the contact surface (locked of the flange member or the receiving member) The control wall of the eaves member is moved by moving the door in the open state in the closing direction in a state where one of the positions provided to be movable between the position and the unlocking position is closer to the locking position than the closing permission position When the boundary portion (hereinafter referred to as the corner portion of the support portion) is pointed, the heel member or the receiving member is provided so as to be movable between the locked position and the unlocked position. In one movement direction, when the corner portion of the support portion is at the same height as the boundary portion between the restriction wall portion and the guide side portion, between the locking position and the unlocking position of the flange member or the receiving member. One of the positions provided so as to be movable is a closing allowable position. In addition, when the support portion is configured to be sharp and the contact surface and the locking surface are continuous (contacted) at the tip portion, the locking position and the unlocking position of the hook member or the receiving member are In one moving direction provided to be movable between, the boundary portion (tip portion) between the contact surface and the locking surface of the support portion is at the same height position as the boundary portion between the regulation wall portion and the guide side portion. One position provided so as to be movable between the locking position and the unlocking position among the eaves member or the receiving member is the closing permission position.

  In addition, the boundary portion between the regulation wall portion and the guide side portion is not necessarily sharp, and one point on the curve may be a point where the regulation wall portion is switched to the guide side portion. That is, when the boundary portion between the restriction wall portion and the guide side portion is R-processed, the nail portion is supported with respect to the support portion in contact with the boundary portion at one point on the curved boundary portion that is R-processed and curved. When a force is applied to the side, the support part may or may not be able to move to the claw part side. In this case, a portion closer to the tip of the claw than the one point on the boundary is a guide side. Therefore, the corner portion of the support portion is switched from the restriction wall portion to the guide side portion in one movement direction provided between the locking member and the receiving member so as to be movable between the locking position and the unlocking position. One position provided so as to be movable between the locking position and the unlocking position among the eaves member or the receiving member at the same height position as (one point on the boundary) is the closing allowable position. .

  Furthermore, the corner portion of the support portion may not necessarily be sharp, and one point on the curve may be a point where the tip surface of the support portion is switched to the contact surface. In this case, the restriction wall portion is switched from the front end surface of the support portion to the contact surface in one moving direction provided between the locking member and the receiving member so as to be movable between the locking position and the unlocking position. Provided so as to be movable between the locked position and the unlocked position of the eaves member or the receiving member when it is at the same height as the point (one point on the boundary) that switches from the guide side to the guide side. One position is a closing allowance position.

  In addition, when the boundary portion between the regulation wall portion and the guide side portion and the corner portion of the support portion are R-processed, the boundary portion and the support portion are damaged when contacting the boundary portion and the support portion. The fear can be suppressed. Further, the restriction wall portion and the guide side portion may be provided by the same member, or a member having the guide side portion may be provided separately from the member having the restriction wall portion.

Mean 2. The heel member includes a heel body extending from one side to the other side of the door body or the gaming machine body, and the claw portion is integrally formed with the heel body,
The gaming machine according to claim 1, wherein the movable portion is provided so as to be relatively movable with respect to one of the door body or the gaming machine main body on which the saddle member is provided.

  According to the means 2, the movable part is provided on one side of the door body or the gaming machine main body on which the saddle member is provided. The movable portion moves from the second position to the first position when the flange member and the receiving member are in pressure contact, and absorbs the force generated during the pressure contact. Requires a certain space. Furthermore, since the eaves member has a claw portion for locking the support portion, it requires a longer length in the opening / closing direction of the door body than the support portion. For this reason, for example, when the movable part is provided on the other side of the door body or the gaming machine main body provided with the receiving member, it is necessary to install the locking means on one side of the door body or the gaming machine main body provided with the heel member. There is a concern that both the space and the space required for installing the locking means on the other side where the receiving member is provided become larger in the door opening / closing direction.

  On the other hand, according to this means, since the movable part is provided on one side of the door body or the gaming machine main body provided with the heel member, installation of the locking means required on the other side provided with the receiving member is provided. It is possible to avoid a situation where the space becomes large in the opening / closing direction of the door body. For this reason, rather than providing a movable part on the other side where the receiving member is provided, it is possible to reduce the space required for installing the locking means by providing the movable part on one side where the collar member is provided as in this means. Can do. As a result, an increase in the size of the gaming machine can be prevented, and an effective use of the internal space of the gaming machine can be achieved.

  In addition, it is good also as "the said movable part being provided so that relative movement with respect to the said main body is possible." Also in this case, the same effect as the means 2 is produced. Further, for example, when the movable part is provided on the collar member (when the collar member includes the movable part), it is conceivable to provide a claw part on the movable part. In this case, the support part is locked to the claw part. When a force in the opening direction is applied to the door body in such a state, a large force is applied to the connecting portion that connects the movable portion to the collar member so as to be relatively movable, and the connecting portion is damaged. There is a fear. On the other hand, by providing the claw portion on the heel main body, the above-described fear can be avoided without causing an increase in rigidity or size of the connection portion.

Means 3. The movable part is provided to be movable relative to the bag main body,
The supporting portion is in an open state in a state where one of the hook member or the receiving member, which is provided so as to be movable between the locking position and the unlocking position, is closer to the locking position than the closing permission position. It has a contact surface that comes into contact with the movable part by moving the door body in the closing direction,
The heel body has a movement restricting portion that contacts the contact surface when the movable portion reaches the first position and restricts the movement of the support portion toward the claw portion. A gaming machine according to means 2.

  According to the means 3, the force generated during the pressure contact between the flange member and the receiving member could not be absorbed (can only be weakened) until the movable portion moves from the second position to the first position. In the case where the door body does not exist, the movement of the door body in the closing direction is restricted by the support portion coming into contact with the movement restriction portion of the bag main body.

  When the movable part is provided on the eaves member as in this means (when the eaves member includes the movable part), for example, when the movable part reaches the first position, the movable part comes into contact with the movable part and is movable. A stopper portion is provided on the heel member for restricting further movement of the heel body toward the proximal end of the heel body, and the contact portion protrudes from the distal end portion of the heel body even when the movable portion is in the first position. It is also possible to adopt such a configuration. In this case, if the force due to the pressure contact between the flange member and the receiving member cannot be absorbed before the movable portion moves from the second position to the first position, the movable portion and the stopper portion , The relative movement of the support portion toward the nail portion is restricted. However, in this case, a greater force may be applied to the movable part. On the other hand, a large force is applied to the movable part by adopting a configuration in which the support part comes into contact with the movement restricting part of the bag main body when the movable part is in the first position as in this means. It is possible to avoid such a situation. For this reason, a possibility that a movable part will change etc. can be controlled. Accordingly, since the rigidity of the movable part is not so much required, the movable part can be thinned, and the locking means can be downsized.

  In addition, by applying a force to the first position side with respect to the movable portion, the contact portion that contacts the contact surface of the support portion of the movable portion is closer to the base end portion side of the heel body than the movement restriction portion of the heel body Even if the support portion can be moved to the position, the relative movement toward the claw portion is restricted when the support portion comes into contact with the movement restricting portion. Therefore, the first position is the opening / closing direction of the door body. The position of the movable part when the contact part and the movement restricting part are at the same position.

Means 4. The movable part is configured to be slidable along the opening / closing direction of the door body with respect to the bag body,
The supporting portion is in an open state in a state where one of the hook member or the receiving member, which is provided so as to be movable between the locking position and the unlocking position, is closer to the locking position than the closing permission position. It has a contact surface that comes into contact with the movable part by moving the door body in the closing direction,
The contact portion of the movable portion that contacts the contact surface of the support portion is substantially orthogonal to the opening / closing direction of the door body, or other than one end portion on the claw portion side of the contact portion. The end portion extends so as to be located on the base end side of the heel body,
The said contact surface of the said support part is substantially orthogonal to the opening-and-closing direction of the said door body, or the front-end | tip side site | part of the said contact surface is in the opening-and-closing direction of the said door body rather than the site | part of a base end side. The game machine according to claim 2 or 3, wherein the game machine extends so as to be located on a base end side of the game machine.

  For example, when one end part on the claw part side of the abutment part is located closer to the base end part side of the heel body than the other end part, or the base part side of the contact part of the support part from the tip side part When the part is located on the base end side of the flange member in the opening and closing direction of the door body, the movable part is pushed by the support part and moved from the second position to the first position. There is a concern that the support portion relatively moves in a direction away from the contact portion as guided by the contact portion or the contact surface. Thus, if the support portion relatively moves before moving from the second position to the first position, the effect of absorbing the force generated upon contact between the flange member and the receiving member is sufficiently obtained. There is a risk that it will not be played. In this regard, by adopting the configuration of the means 4, it is possible to prevent the possibility that the support portion relatively moves in a direction away from the contact portion before moving from the second position to the first position. be able to. Accordingly, it is possible to reliably absorb the force generated upon contact between the flange member and the receiving member.

  In addition, the site | part on the front end side of a contact surface is a site | part located in the base end part side of a nail | claw part in the state in which the support part was latched by the nail | claw part, Is a part located on the tip part side of the claw part from the part on the tip side. Further, for example, the inclination angles of the contact portion of the movable portion and the contact surface of the support portion may be the same. In this case, the contact area between the contact portion and the support portion can be increased as much as possible. When the contact portion and the support portion are pressed, the movable portion (the corner portion) and the support portion (the corner portion) It is possible to suppress the fear that the durability is deteriorated due to damage or the like.

Means 5. A door body that is supported so as to be openable and closable relative to the left and right sides of the fixed frame;
Locking means for locking the door body to the fixed frame at the left and right other sides of the fixed frame;
The locking means is
A locking member in which a predetermined unlocking operation is performed when the door body in the locked state is in an unlocked state that can be opened;
A collar member provided on one side of the door body or the fixed frame, and a receiving member provided on the other side and engaged with the collar member in the closed state of the door body,
The flange member includes a claw portion having a locking side portion for locking the support portion provided on the receiving member in the closed state of the door body,
In conjunction with the unlocking operation of the lock member, the hook member allows the door body to be opened from a locked position where the support portion is locked by the claw portion and restricts the opening of the door body. Slide to the lock position,
The unlocking operation of the lock member is performed, and the saddle member does not contact the saddle member and the receiving member by applying a force in the closing direction to the door body, or the saddle member And the receiving member slidably contact each other to apply a force in the closing direction to the door body in the open state when the door body is in a closing allowable position where the door body is allowed to move in the closing direction. , The door can be closed,
When the flange member is closer to the locking position than the closing allowance position, the flange member and the receiving member are in contact with each other even when a force is applied to the door body in the open state in the closing direction. Then, the door body is configured to be restricted from moving in the closing direction with the door being opened at a predetermined angle,
When the collar member is at least in the locked position,
A first position that is a position when movement of the door body in a closing direction is restricted in a state where the flange member and the receiving member are in contact with each other and the door body is opened at a predetermined angle; It is configured to be able to rotate between a second position located when the door body is in an open state rather than being in a position,
The locking means includes urging means for urging the collar member toward the locking position and urging toward the second position.
By closing the door body in the open state in a state where the flange member is positioned closer to the locking position than the closing permission position, the flange member and the support portion come into contact with each other, and further from the contact state A gaming machine in which a force is applied to the door body in the closing direction so that the heel member is pushed by the support portion and rotates from the second position to the first position side. .

  According to the means 5, in the state in which the collar member is located closer to the locking position than the closing permission position, it is impossible to close the door body in the open state even if it is attempted to close. For this reason, it is easy to discover that the door body has been illegally opened, and as a result, the door body is illegally unlocked, and the control device provided on the back side of the door body is illegally operated or replaced. Thus, it is possible to suppress an illegal act such as acquiring a lot of game media.

  Further, the collar member not only slides between the locked position and the unlocked position while maintaining a predetermined posture, but can be rotated between the first position and the second position at least in the locked position. It has become. Further, the urging means urges the collar member not only to the locking position side but also to the second position side. For this reason, when closing the door body in the open state in a state where the eaves member is positioned closer to the locking position than the closing allowance position, the eaves member and the receiving member (support part) come into contact with each other, and the contact state Further, by applying a force in the closing direction to the door body, the flange member rotates from the second position to the first position against the urging force by the urging means. Therefore, when the collar member is pushed by the receiving member and moves from the second position to the first position side, a force for pushing back the receiving member acts. As a result, it is possible to absorb the force generated when the movable part and the support part are pressed. Therefore, the force applied to the eaves member and the receiving member can be reduced, and the eaves member and the receiving member can be prevented from being deformed or damaged.

  Further, in this means, at least the hook member in the locking position is rotated with respect to the configuration in which the hook member is slid between the locking position and the unlocking position, and the door body is locked / unlocked with respect to the fixed frame. A structure capable of absorbing the force generated when the movable part and the support part are pressed by setting the attachment position of the urging means so as to urge the flange member also to the second position side. It is said. For this reason, in particular, it is possible to obtain an operational effect of absorbing the force generated during the pressure contact between the flange member and the receiving member without increasing the number of parts or complicating the configuration.

Means 6. The saddle member is slidably and pivotally attached to one of the door body or the fixed frame, and the pivot member main body has a pivot center position of the saddle member main body.

  The variable winning device 32 is normally in a closed state in which a game ball cannot be won or difficult to win, and is in an open state in which a game ball is likely to win in the case of a big hit (occurrence of a special game state). More specifically, when a game ball wins the first opportunity corresponding port 33, the special display device 43 displays the three-color LED at a high speed, such as red → green → blue → red →. When a predetermined time elapses, it is determined and displayed in one of the colors. High-speed color change display means, for example, that red, green, and blue are displayed in order every 4 msec. At this time, if the decision display is made in red or green (for example, stopped for a few seconds), which means that the lottery lottery is won, a big hit state occurs. In addition, when the special display device 43 determines and displays the three-color LEDs in red or green, a combination of specific symbols is supplementarily displayed on the decorative symbol display device 42. The large winning opening of the variable winning device 32 is in a predetermined open state, and the game ball is configured to be in a state where it is easy to win a prize (a big hit state). Specifically, the passage of a predetermined time or a predetermined number of winnings is defined as one round, and the large winning opening of the variable winning device 32 is repeatedly opened a predetermined number of times (a predetermined number of rounds).

  Further, when a game ball is newly won in the first opportunity corresponding port 33 during the variable display of the special display device 43, the corresponding variable display is performed after the end of the variable display at that time. It has a configuration. That is, the variable display is on standby (held). The maximum number of the variable display to be held is determined for each model of the pachinko machine, but in this embodiment, it is held up to 4 times, and the hold number is lit and displayed by the hold lamp 46.

It is like that.

  In the present embodiment, a linear solenoid is used as the launching device 72 instead of a combination of a motor and a launching rod that are generally employed conventionally. That is, the firing device 72 includes a plunger 76 that extends parallel to the firing rail 73. Then, the plunger 76 appears and disappears by alternately switching the firing device 72 between an excited state and a non-excited state. Each time the plunger 76 protrudes, the game ball positioned at a predetermined position by the positioning member 75 is fired from the firing rail 73. Note that the protruding speed of the plunger 76 is appropriately adjusted based on the operation amount of the handle 18 (the stroke amount is substantially constant), thereby adjusting the firing speed of the game ball and thus the flying amount.

  Further, there is a gap of a predetermined interval between the firing rail 73 and the rail unit 50, and a foul ball passage 63 is formed below the gap. The foul ball passage 63 communicates with the ball discharge portion 29 that communicates with the discharge port 16 in the closed state of the lower dish unit 13. Accordingly, if the game ball launched from the game ball launching device does not reach the return ball prevention member 53 and returns in the ball guide path as a foul ball, the foul ball is the foul ball path 63 and the ball discharge unit 29. , And the lower tray 15 through the outlet 16.

The sliding rod 191 and the inner frame rod members 192 and 193 are always pulled downward by a pair of upper and lower coil springs C1. In the present embodiment, in the sliding range of the inner frame collar members 192 and 193, the lower position corresponds to the locking position of the inner frame collar members 192 and 193, and the upper position is the unlocked position of the inner frame collar members 192 and 193. It corresponds to.

  In the closed state of the inner frame 12, the inner frame collar members 192 and 193 engage with the upper sides of the pawl horses 83 and 84 fixed to the inner side of the outer frame 11 (see FIGS. 3 and 9). Thereby, opening of the inner frame 12 in the closed state is restricted. The locked state of the inner frame collar members 192 and 193 can be stabilized by the presence of the folded portions 83a and 84a formed on the claw horses 83 and 84. The movement of the inner frame collar members 192 and 193 when the inner frame 12 is closed will be briefly described. The inner frame collar members 192 and 193 are pushed upward by contacting the pawl horses 83 and 84, and the coil spring. Slide once toward the unlocked position against the tensile force of C1. Thereafter, the coil spring C1 returns to the lower locking position by the tensile force of the coil spring C1, and engages with the pawl horses 83 and 84.

  In addition, the inner frame collar members 192 and 193 are configured to slide upward simultaneously at the same time as the sliding collar 191 slides upward. On the other hand, the sliding rod 191 is configured not to slide in conjunction with the inner frame collar members 192 and 193 even when the inner frame collar members 192 and 193 slide by applying a force directly to the inner frame collar members 192 and 193. Yes. That is, the inner frame collar members 192 and 193 can be moved independently. For example, even if one of the inner frame collar members 192 and 193 is moved upward, the other is not moved. It remains in the locked position.

  As shown in FIGS. 13 and 16, the locking device G <b> 1 includes a pair of upper and lower front frame set locking members 194 and 195 slidable along the inner surface (rear surface) of the mounting plate 187. The front frame set locking members 194 and 195 are formed by bending a metal plate into a U-shaped cross section, and rectangular locking holes 194a and 195a are formed on the surface on the mounting plate 187 side. . As shown in FIG. 14, the locking holes 194 a and 195 a are disposed relative to the insertion holes 189 and 190 formed in the mounting plate 187. The sliding rod 191 and the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 are always pulled upward by a coil spring C2 as a pair of upper and lower urging means. In the present embodiment, in the sliding range of the front frame set locking members 194, 195, the upper position corresponds to the locking position of the front frame set locking members 194, 195, and the lower position of the front frame set locking members 194, 195. Corresponds to the unlocking position. The sliding rod 191 is in a tensioned state at an intermediate position where it can move both upward and downward by the coil springs C1 and C2.

  In the closed state of the front frame set 14, the front frame set collars 14 a and 14 b (see FIG. 2) provided on the front frame set 14 are connected to the communication holes 90 and 91 (see FIG. 4) and the mounting plate of the inner frame 12. 187 is inserted into the locking holes 194a and 195a through the insertion holes 189 and 190 (see FIG. 14), and is engaged with the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 (lower edges of the locking holes 194a and 195a). The Thereby, opening of the front frame set 14 in the closed state is restricted. The movement of the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 when the front frame set 14 is closed will be briefly described. The front frame set locking members 194 and 195 are moved downward by contacting the front frame set collars 14a and 14b. And is slid once toward the unlocked position against the tensile force of the coil spring C2. Then, it returns to the upper locking position by the tensile force of the coil spring C2, and engages with the front frame set flanges 14a and 14b.

  Furthermore, the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 are configured to slide downward simultaneously at the same time as the sliding rod 191 slides downward. On the other hand, the sliding rod 191 is configured not to slide in conjunction with the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 even if the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 slide by applying a force directly to the front frame set locking members 194 and 195. . That is, the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 can be moved downward independently. For example, even if one of the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 is moved downward, the other is not It remains in the locked position without moving.

  As shown in FIGS. 11, 13, 16, etc., the locking device G1 includes a cylinder lock 196 as a locking member for releasing the locking state of the inner frame 12 and the front frame set 14. The cylinder lock 196 includes a fixing portion 161 that is fixed in contact with the rear surface (attachment surface) of the mounting plate 187, and a lock body 162 that extends through the mounting plate 187 from the fixing portion 161 toward the front and has a keyhole. And a cam plate 163 as a transmission member that is attached to a lock shaft (not shown) and that transmits the rotation of the key inserted into the keyhole to the sliding rod 191.

  The cam plate 163 includes a pair of upper and lower locking claws 165a and 165b. On the other hand, a pair of upper and lower locking holes 171 a and 171 b are formed in a portion of the sliding rod 191 facing the cam plate 163.

  When the key inserted into the keyhole is rotated in the clockwise direction in FIG. 10, the cam plate 163 is rotated in the same direction, so that the lower locking claw 165b becomes the upper edge of the lower locking hole 171b. The sliding rod 191 is slid upward so as to come into contact with the portion and be lifted by the locking claw 165b. As a result, the inner frame collar members 192 and 193 are simultaneously slid upward in conjunction with each other. At this time, the engagement between the inner frame collar members 192 and 193 and the claw horses 83 and 84 is released, and the inner frame 12 is unlocked.

  On the other hand, when the key inserted in the keyhole is rotated counterclockwise in FIG. 10, the cam plate 163 rotates in the same direction, so that the upper locking claw 165a becomes the lower edge portion of the upper locking hole 171a. And the sliding rod 191 is slid downward so that it is pushed down by the locking claw 165a. Thereby, the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 are simultaneously slid downward in conjunction with each other. At this time, the engagement between the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 and the front frame set collars 14a and 14b is released, and the front frame set 14 is unlocked.

  The above-described sliding rod 191 includes a sliding operation portion 199 that protrudes toward the cylinder lock 196 (left side in FIG. 16) at a substantially intermediate position. Due to the presence of the sliding operation portion 199, the sliding lever 191 is slid downward by pushing down the sliding operation portion 199 without performing the rotation operation of the cylinder lock 196 in a state where the inner frame 12 is opened. The front frame set 14 can be opened. For this reason, improvement of workability | operativity, such as when manufacturing and maintaining the pachinko machine 10, is achieved.

  In addition, as shown in FIGS. 11 and 16, a regulating projection 172 is formed on the inner surface of the sliding rod 191 so as to project from the lower edge of the lower locking hole 171 b toward the cylinder lock 196. For example, the regulating protrusion 172 pushes the sliding rod 191 so as to push up the sliding operation portion 199 without performing the rotation operation of the cylinder lock 196 (rotating the key inserted into the keyhole clockwise). When it is going to be slid upward, it is configured so as to come into contact with the locking claw 165b, whereby the upward sliding of the sliding rod 191 is restricted. That is, the inner frame 12 cannot be opened unless the cylinder lock 196 is rotated. The restriction protrusion 172 may be omitted.

  As shown in FIGS. 13 and 16, the cylinder lock 196 includes a reset pin 166 that protrudes rearward from the fixed portion 161 and is pressed when changing the keyhole shape (key code). The procedure for changing the key code will be described. First, the current key is inserted into the keyhole while the reset pin 166 is pressed and rotated, and then the key is pulled out. Then, while pressing the reset pin 166, a key to be newly set is inserted into the key hole, and the key is pulled out after releasing the pressed state of the reset pin 166 after rotating in the opposite direction to the current key. By performing the operation as described above, a key code suitable for a new key to be set can be obtained. As a result, the keys can be unified for each game hall, and the keys can be changed periodically to prevent fraud.

  Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 12, FIG. 15, etc., the locking device G1 includes a lower plate unit locking member 197 that can slide along the outer surface of the support plate 188 (the surface on the window hole 21 side). The lower plate unit locking member 197 includes a pair of upper and lower lower plate unit flanges 197a and 197b, and a lower plate unit operation unit 198 located at the uppermost part. The lower plate unit locking member 197 is always pulled upward by the coil spring C3. Thus, when the lower plate unit 13 is in the closed state, the lower plate unit collars 197a and 197b are locked in the locking holes 13a and 13b (see FIG. 2) provided on the back side of the lower plate unit 13. The opening of the lower plate unit 13 is restricted. The lower pan unit operation unit 198 is exposed only when the front frame set 14 is in an open state, and can be operated only in this case. Then, by lowering the lower plate unit operation portion 198 against the tensile force of the coil spring C3, the locked state between the lower plate unit collar portions 197a and 197b and the locking holes 13a and 13b is released, The dish unit 13 is unlocked. In other words, the lower plate unit 13 is allowed to be opened by operating the lower plate unit operation unit 198 only when the front frame set 14 is opened.

  In the present embodiment, the front frame set 14 has a locking mechanism, specifically, front frame set collars 14 a and 14 b provided on the front frame set 14. Hereinafter, such characteristic parts will be described with reference to FIG.

The front frame set collars 14a and 14b correspond to collar members, and the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 correspond to receiving members. FIG. 17 shows a state in which the front frame set 14 is opened and the front frame set collar 14a and the front frame set locking member 194 are separated from each other, and a slide member 461 described later is in the second position. It is a schematic cross section for demonstrating the positional relationship of a front frame set collar part and a front frame set locking member. FIG. 18 is a schematic cross-sectional view for explaining the process of closing the front frame set 14. FIG. 19 is a schematic cross-sectional view for explaining the positional relationship between the front frame set collar 14a and the front frame set locking member 194 when the front frame set 14 is closed. In FIG. 20, the front frame set locking portion 14a and the front frame set locking member 194 are in contact with each other, and the movement of the front frame set 14 in the closing direction is restricted when the front frame set 14 is opened at a predetermined angle. It is a schematic cross section for explaining the positional relationship between the front frame set collar portion 14a and the front frame set locking member 194 when the member 461 is in the first position.

  As shown in FIG. 17, the front frame set collar portion 14 a includes a long plate-shaped collar body 411 extending backward from a reinforcing plate 132 provided on the back surface of the front frame set 14, and downward from the distal end portion of the collar body 411. And a projecting claw portion 412.

  The heel body 411 extends straight along the depth direction of the pachinko machine 10 (opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14), and the tip end (tip edge) extends perpendicular to the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14. ing. Hereinafter, the distal end portion of the heel body 411 is referred to as a contact side portion 451. In the present embodiment, the contact side portion 451 corresponds to a movement restricting portion.

  The claw portion 412 includes a guide side portion 414 extending obliquely downward from a lower end portion of the contact side portion 451 of the heel body 411 toward the base end side (left side in FIG. 17) of the heel body 411, and a guide side portion 414. The hook side 415 extends perpendicularly to the extending direction of the heel body 411 (opening and closing direction of the front frame set 14) so as to connect the distal end of the heel body and the heel body 411. In the closed state of the front frame set 14 in which the front frame set 14 (reinforcing plate 132 or the like) and the inner frame 12 are substantially in contact with each other, the claw portions 412 are connected to the communication holes 90 of the inner frame 12 (resin base 20). The locking plate 187 is inserted into the locking hole 194a through the insertion hole 189 of the mounting plate 187, and the locking side portion 415 is locked to the rear surface of the front frame set locking member 194 (see FIG. 19). Thereby, the movement to the opening direction of the front frame set 14 in a closed state is controlled. In the present embodiment, a portion of the front frame set locking member 194 that includes the lower edge portion of the locking hole 194a and contacts the front frame set collar portion 14a corresponds to a support portion (hereinafter referred to as a support portion 421).

  As described above, the front frame set locking member 194 having the support portion 421 has an upper locking position and a lower unlocking direction along the vertical direction which is a direction orthogonal to the opening / closing direction (horizontal direction) of the front frame set 14. It is configured to be movable between positions. In the present embodiment, in the open state of the front frame set 14, the front end portion (upper edge portion) of the support portion 421 of the front frame set locking member 194 in the locked position is the boundary between the contact side portion 451 and the guide side portion 414. It is located above a part (the lower end part of contact side part 451). Further, when the front frame set locking member 194 is in the unlocked position, the distal end portion of the support portion 421 is positioned below the distal end portion of the claw portion 412 (the boundary portion between the guide side portion 414 and the locking side portion 415). To do. In the closed state of the front frame set 14 (the locked state between the support portion 421 and the locking side portion 415), the lower edge portion of the collar body 411 and the distal end portion of the support portion 421 are in contact with each other.

  Now, in this embodiment, the front frame set collar part 14a is along the outer peripheral surface of the front frame set 14 (the front side surface in FIG. 17, hereinafter simply referred to as the outer surface of the collar body 411). A long plate-like slide member 461 is provided. The rear end portion of the slide member 461 (hereinafter referred to as the vertical side portion 462) extends perpendicular to the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14. In the open state of the front frame set 14, the front end portion (upper edge portion) of the support portion 421 of the front frame set locking member 194 in the locked position is above the lower end portion of the vertical side portion 462 and is also the vertical side portion 462. It is located below the upper end of. In the present embodiment, the slide member 461 constitutes a movable part.

  The slide member 461 is formed with a pair of elliptical slide holes 463 and 464 arranged in the front-rear direction. Sliding projections 465 and 466 that protrude from the outer surface of the collar main body 411 and have larger diameter portions than the vertical width of the sliding holes 463 and 464 are inserted in the sliding holes 463 and 464, The diameter-enlarged portions of the sliding protrusions 465 and 466 are located on the outer peripheral side surface of the front frame set 14 (the front side surface in FIG. 17, hereinafter simply referred to as the outer surface of the sliding member 461). Yes. That is, the slide member 461 and the rod main body 411 are connected by the slide holes 464 and 463 and the slide protrusions 466 and 465.

  Further, the front and rear widths (the width in the left-right direction in FIG. 17) of the sliding holes 463 and 464 are larger than the diameters of the corresponding sliding protrusions 465 and 466. Further, when one of the sliding protrusions 465 and 466 contacts the rear end portion (the right edge in FIG. 17) of the corresponding sliding hole 463 and 464, The sliding protrusions 466 and 465 are also in contact with the rear ends of the corresponding sliding holes 464 and 463, and one of the sliding protrusions 465 and 466 is in contact with the corresponding sliding hole. When contacting the front end portions (left edge portion in FIG. 17) of 463, 464, the other sliding projections 466, 465 are also in contact with the front end portions of the corresponding sliding holes 464, 463. It has become. Thus, the slide member 461 is provided so as to be relatively movable (slidable) back and forth with respect to the bag main body 411. The two slide holes 463 and 464 and the two slide protrusions 465 and 466 can prevent the slide member 461 from rotating with respect to the bag main body 411 and can prevent the slide member. Shaking during sliding of 461 is suppressed.

  In the present embodiment, the distance L1 from the front end portion of the sliding hole 464 on the rear side (right side in FIG. 17) of the pair of front and rear sliding holes 463 and 464 to the vertical side portion 462 is a pair of sliding protrusions 465, The distance L2 from the front end portion of the rear sliding protrusion 466 to the contact side portion 451 is longer than the distance L2. Therefore, in a state where the front end portions of the sliding holes 463 and 464 are in contact with the sliding protrusions 465 and 466 (the front end portions thereof), the vertical side portion 462 of the slide member 461 is a contact where the front end portion of the rod main body 411 is contacted. It protrudes backward from the side portion 451.

  Furthermore, a length L3 obtained by subtracting the diameter of the sliding projections 465 and 466 (the diameter of the portion that is not the enlarged diameter portion) from the front and rear width of the sliding holes 463 and 464 is the sliding projections 465 and 466 and the sliding holes 463 and 463. The distance L4 is the same as or slightly longer than the distance L4 from the contact side 451 to the vertical side 462 in a state where the front end of 464 is substantially in contact. Therefore, when the rear end portions of the slide holes 463 and 464 of the slide member 461 are in contact with the slide protrusions 465 and 466, the vertical side portion 462 and the contact side portion 451 in the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14. Or the vertical side portion 462 of the slide member 461 is positioned in front of the contact side portion 451. In other words, the slide member 461 applies a force forward (leftward in FIG. 17) to the slide member 461 until the vertical side portion 462 becomes the same position as the contact side portion 451, or The side 462 can be slid forward (left side in FIG. 17) until the side 462 is located slightly ahead of the contact side 451.

  In this manner, the slide member 461 is configured to be slidable forward until at least the vertical side portion 462 and the contact side portion 451 are in the same position, and in the open state of the front frame set 14 as described above, Since the front end portion of the support portion 421 of the front frame set locking member 194 at the position is positioned above the lower end portion of the contact side portion 451, the cylinder lock 196 is not opened without being rotated. When a certain front frame set 14 is closed, the support portion 421 and the contact side portion 451 come into contact with each other. Hereinafter, the position of the slide member 461 when the support portion 421 and the contact side portion 451 come into contact with each other is referred to as a first position. Further, in the sliding range of the slide member 461, the position of the slide member 461 when the slide protrusions 465 and 466 contact the front end portions of the slide holes 463 and 464 is referred to as a second position. In the present embodiment, the vertical side portion 462 of the slide member 461 constitutes a contact portion.

  In addition, the front frame set collar portion 14a includes a coil spring C4 as a buffer urging means whose one end is fixed to the collar body 411 and the other end is fixed to the slide member 461. More specifically, the slide member 461 is provided with a slide side hook 467 that protrudes upward from the upper side. Further, the rod main body 411 protrudes upward from the upper edge portion of the rod main body 411 behind the slide side hanging portion 467 of the slide member 461 in the second position (at the tip end side of the rod main body 411). A side hook 468 is provided. A coil spring C4 is provided between the slide side hanging portion 467 and the heel side hanging portion 468. The slide member 461 is always pulled rearward (second position side) by the coil spring C4. For this reason, no force is positively applied to the slide member 461 other than the urging force of the coil spring C4. In other words, the slide member 461 is in the second position in the normal state, and the vertical side portion 462 is provided. Protrudes rearward from the contact side 451 which is the tip of the heel body 411.

  As described above, the vertical side portion 461 is normally located behind the contact side portion 451, and the support portion of the front frame set locking member 194 in the locked position in the open state of the front frame set 14 as described above. When the front frame set 14 in the open state is closed without rotating the cylinder lock 196 due to the configuration in which the tip end portion of 421 is positioned above the lower end portion of the vertical side portion 462 of the slide member 461. In this case, the front surface of the support portion 421 and the vertical side portion 462 come into contact with each other. In the present embodiment, the front surface of the support portion 421 that contacts the vertical side portion 462 extends perpendicular to the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14. Further, the rear surface of the support portion 421 that is locked in contact with the locking side portion 415 also extends orthogonal to the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14. In the present embodiment, the front surface of the support portion 421 constitutes a contact surface, and the rear surface of the support portion 421 constitutes a locking surface.

  Further, the lower edge portion of the slide member 461 is at the same height as the lower edge portion of the heel body 411, and the lower end portion of the contact side portion 451 (the boundary portion between the contact side portion 451 and the guide side portion 414) and The lower end portion of the vertical side portion 461 is at the same height position. For this reason, by closing the front frame set 14, when the support portion 421 and the contact side portion 451 come into contact with each other, the vertical side portion 461 and the support portion 421 always come into contact with each other. In the present embodiment, the front frame set locking member when the boundary portion between the contact side portion 451 and the guide side portion 414 and the upper end portion of the contact surface (front surface) of the support portion 421 are at the same height position. The height position of 194 corresponds to the closing allowable position. Further, when the upper end portion of the contact surface of the support portion 421 is located above the boundary portion between the contact side portion 451 and the guide side portion 414, that is, the front frame set locking member 194 is closer to the locking position than the closing allowable position. When the front frame set 14 is closed, the support portion 421 and the vertical side portion 462 come into contact with each other, and further, the support portion 421 and the vertical side portion 462 are pressed from the contact state. The support part 421 and the contact side part 451 contact.

  The lower front frame set collar 14b and the front frame set locking member 195 also have the same configuration as the front frame set collar 14a and the front frame set locking member 194.

  Next, the movement of the front frame set collar 14a and the front frame set locking member 194 when the front frame set 14 is closed will be described with reference to FIGS.

  In order to close the front frame set 14 in the open state as shown in FIG. 17, first, as shown in FIG. 18, the cylinder lock 196 is rotated to unlock the front frame set locking member 194. It is moved to the position side, and the tip end position of the support part 421 is positioned below the claw part 412. Then, while performing the rotation operation of the cylinder lock 196 (while keeping the rotation position of the key inserted and rotated in the keyhole to release the locked state), the front frame set 14 is closed. As shown in FIG. 19, the front end portion (claw portion 412) of the front frame set collar portion 14 a is connected to the communication hole 90 of the inner frame 12 without bringing the vertical side portion 462 and the contact side portion 451 into contact with the support portion 421. And the front frame set until the front frame set 14 (reinforcing plate 132, etc.) and the inner frame 12 are substantially in contact with each other through the insertion hole 189 of the mounting plate 187. 14 can be pushed in.

  Even if the support portion 421 and the guide side portion 414 come into contact with each other, the front frame set locking member 194 is pushed by the support portion 421 that is in sliding contact with the guide side portion 414 by further closing the front frame set 14. Then, it slides once toward the unlocking position below against the tensile force of the coil spring C2 as the biasing means. That is, since the front frame set 14 can be pushed in until the front frame set 14 is closed, the support portion 421 can be closed without closing the front end portion of the support portion 421 below the claw portion 412 when closing the front frame set 14. The tip end portion of the contact side portion 451 may be positioned below the boundary portion between the contact side portion 451 and the guide side portion 414.

  After that, when the hand is released from the cylinder lock 196 (the key inserted into the key hole of the cylinder lock 196 and rotated), the front frame set locking member 194 moves upward and returns to the locking position by the tensile force of the coil spring C2. The locking side portion 415 is locked to the rear surface of the support portion 421. As described above, the front frame set locking member 194 and the front frame set collar portion 14a are engaged, and the front frame set 14 in the closed state is locked. In addition, when a hand is released from the key that has been inserted into the keyhole of the cylinder lock 196 and rotated, the key is returned to the reference position before the rotation by the urging force.

  In the present embodiment, when the front frame set 14 is closed without rotating the cylinder lock 196, first, the vertical position of the slide member 461 located at the front end of the front frame set collar portion 14a is first. The side part 462 comes into contact with the front surface of the support part 421.

  By further closing the front frame set 14 from the contact state, as shown in FIG. 20, the slide member 461 is pushed by the support portion 421, and from the second position forward against the tensile force of the coil spring C4. To the first position side. When the slide member 461 is pushed forward by the support portion 421 and slides forward until the vertical side portion 462 and the contact side portion 451 are in the same position (until the first position), the support portion 421 is It contacts the contact side 451 of the main body 411. Thus, when the support part 421 and the contact side part 451 contact, relative movement to the nail | claw part 412 side of the support part 421, ie, the movement to the close direction of the front frame set 14, is controlled. As a result, the front frame set 14 cannot be closed any further.

  As described above in detail, according to the present embodiment, when the front frame set 14 in the open state is moved in the closing direction without rotating the cylinder lock 196, first, the front surface of the support portion 421 is moved. Comes into contact with the vertical side portion 462 located at the front end portion of the front frame set collar portion 14a, and the front frame set 14 is further moved in the closing direction from the contact state, so that the front surface of the support portion 421 becomes the front end of the main body 411. The contact side part 451 which is a part contacts. When the support portion 421 contacts the contact side portion 451, the movement of the front frame set 14 in the closing direction is restricted, and the front frame set 14 cannot be closed any more. Therefore, unless the cylinder lock 196 is rotated, the front frame set 14 cannot be closed even if the front frame set 14 is pushed. Therefore, it is easy to detect that the front frame set 14 has been illegally opened. As a result, unauthorized opening of the front frame set 14, and consequently, illegal acts performed on the inside of the pachinko machine 1 from between the front frame set 14 and the inner frame 12 can be suppressed.

  Moreover, before the support part 421 and the contact side part 451 contact, the support part 421 contacts with the vertical side part 462 of the slide member 461 in a 2nd position. The slide member 461 is biased to the second rear position side by the coil spring C4. When the slide member 461 is pushed by the support portion 421 and moves to the first front position side, A force for pushing back the support portion 421 is applied. Thereby, the force generated at the time of the press contact between the vertical side portion 462 (front frame set collar portion 14a) and the support portion 421 (front frame set locking member 194) can be absorbed. Accordingly, the force applied to the front frame set collar 14a and the front frame set locking member 194 can be reduced, and the front frame set collar 14a and the front frame set locking member 194 are deformed or damaged. This can be prevented.

  Furthermore, since the impact caused by the collision between the front frame set collar 14a and the front frame set locking member 194 can be absorbed and alleviated, the impact resulting from the impact is caused by the front frame set collar 14a and the front frame set locking. The risk of transmission to members other than the member 194 can be suppressed. Therefore, for example, it is possible to prevent the possibility that the resin members constituting the front frame set 14 and the inner frame 12 are damaged by the impact or that the control board is hindered.

  Also, the slide member 461 slides along the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14 and absorbs the force generated when the front frame set collar 14a and the front frame set locking member 194 are pressed. A predetermined space is required in the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14 (the front-rear direction of the pachinko machine 10). Furthermore, since the front frame set collar 14a has a claw portion 412 that locks the rear surface of the support portion 421, the front frame set collar portion 14a requires a longer length in the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14 than the support portion 421. Therefore, for example, when the slide member 461 is provided on the support portion 421 (front frame set locking member 194), both the front frame set collar portion 14a and the front frame set locking member 194 both open and close the front frame set 14. As a result, there is a concern that the space required for installation of the locking device G1 becomes large.

  On the other hand, according to the present embodiment, since the slide member 461 is provided on the front frame set collar portion 14a, the front frame set locking member 194 does not require much thickness in the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14. For this reason, rather than providing the slide member 461 on the front frame set locking member 194, it is necessary to install the slide member 461 on the front frame set collar portion 14a as in the present embodiment for installing the locking device G1. Can be reduced. As a result, enlargement of the pachinko machine 10 can be prevented, or the internal space of the pachinko machine 10 can be effectively used.

  Further, for example, when the slide member 461 is provided on the front frame set 14 at a location different from the front frame set collar 14a (front frame set collar 14b), the cylinder lock 196 is rotated. Even when the front frame set 14 is closed, the slide member 461 always comes into contact with the inner frame 12 (resin base 20). For this reason, when the front surface frame set 14 is closed by rotating the cylinder lock 196, the slide member 461 is moved from the second position to the first position against the pulling force of the coil spring C4. Power is required.

  In contrast, when the slide member 461 is provided on the front frame set collar 14a (front frame set collar 14b), the cylinder lock 196 can be rotated and the front frame set 14 can be closed. Thus, it can be set as the structure which the slide member 461 does not contact the inner frame 12 (support part 421). Accordingly, when the front frame set 14 cannot be closed, the slide member 461 comes into contact with the support portion 421 and moves from the second position to the first position side, whereby the front frame set collar 14a (front frame set collar 14a). 14b) and the support portion 421 are absorbed by force (collision between the front frame set 14 and the inner frame 12), and when the front frame set 14 can be closed, the slide member 461 contacts the support portion 421. Therefore, the front frame set 14 can be closed without receiving a force to push the front frame set 14 back from the slide member 461 (coil spring C4). As a result, when the front frame set 14 is moved in the closing direction by rotating the cylinder lock 196, the front frame set 14 can be smoothly closed. Moreover, compared with the case where the slide member 461 is provided at a different location from the front frame set collar 14a (front frame set collar 14b), the risk of increasing the number of parts and complicating the configuration is suppressed. can do.

  In addition, for example, when the claw portion 412 is provided on the slide member 461, when the rear surface (locking surface) of the support portion 421 and the locking side portion 415 of the claw portion 412 are brought into pressure contact, the sliding protrusion A large force is applied to 465 and 466 (sliding holes 463 and 464 of the slide member 461), and the sliding protrusions 465 and 466 may be damaged. On the other hand, by providing the claw portion 412 on the heel body 411 as in this embodiment, a situation in which a large force is applied to the sliding protrusions 465 and 466 can be avoided. The above-mentioned fear can be avoided without increasing the rigidity and size of the peripheral portions of 466 and sliding holes 463 and 464.

  Further, the front sides of the vertical side portion 462 and the support portion 421 extend perpendicular to the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14. For this reason, when the vertical side portion 462 and the support portion 421 are brought into pressure contact with each other, the support portion 421 is guided in front of the vertical side portion 462 or the support portion 421 so that the support portion 421 moves away from the vertical side portion 462. The fear of moving can be avoided. Therefore, it is possible to avoid the possibility that the force generated when the vertical side portion 462 and the support portion 421 are pressed cannot be sufficiently absorbed due to the relative movement of the support portion 421 in the direction away from the vertical side portion 462. it can.

  Further, since the front sides of the vertical side portion 462 and the support portion 421 both extend perpendicular to the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14 and are parallel to each other, for example, the inclination of the vertical side portion 462 and the front surface of the support portion 421 The contact area between the vertical side portion 462 and the support portion 421 can be increased as compared with the case where the angles are different. Therefore, when the vertical side part 462 and the support part 421 contact, the possibility that the slide member 461 (the corner part) and the support part 421 (the corner part) are damaged can be suppressed, and as a result. Further, it is possible to suppress a decrease in durability of the slide member 461 and the support portion 421.

  In addition, according to the present embodiment, the force generated during the pressure contact between the vertical side portion 462 and the support portion 421 is absorbed until the slide member 461 moves from the second position to the first position. If not, the support portion 421 comes into contact with the contact side portion 451 of the bag main body 411 so that the movement of the front frame set 14 in the closing direction is restricted. For this reason, the relative movement of the support portion 421 toward the claw portion 412 can be reliably restricted. Further, for example, a stopper that contacts the slide member 461 when the slide member 461 reaches the first position and restricts further movement of the slide member 461 toward the base end side (forward) of the heel body 411. When the configuration is such that the vertical side portion 462 protrudes rearward from the tip end portion of the heel body 411 even when the slide member 461 is in the first position, the slide member 461 is the second member. When the force resulting from the pressure contact between the vertical side portion 462 and the support portion 421 cannot be absorbed by the time it moves from the position to the first position, the slide member 461 and the stopper portion at the first position Contact with each other restricts relative movement of the support portion 421 toward the claw portion 412 side. In this case, a larger force may be applied to the slide member 461. On the other hand, by adopting the configuration of the present embodiment, it is possible to avoid a situation in which a large force is applied to the slide member 461, thereby suppressing the possibility that the slide member 461 is deformed. Can do. Accordingly, since the slide member 461 does not require so much rigidity, the slide member 461 can be thinned, and the locking device G1 can be downsized.

  As described above, the opening detection sensor 22 for detecting the opening of the front frame set 14 is provided. In the present embodiment, the locked state between the support portion 421 and the locking side portion 415 is released, and the rear surface (locking surface) of the support portion 421 is located behind (on the right side in FIG. 17) the contact side portion 451. In this case, the opening detection sensor 22 detects the opening of the front frame set 14, and the detection signal is input to an input / output port 554 and an external relay terminal plate 230 of the sub-control device 262 described later (FIG. 21). Thereby, based on the detection information of the opening detection sensor 22, the error display lamp 106 provided on the front surface of the front frame set 14 is controlled to be turned on, or a signal indicating that the front frame set 14 is opened is output to the hall computer. Or

  Therefore, the effect that it becomes easier to find unauthorized opening of the front frame set 14 is further achieved. Further, in the present embodiment, the front frame set 14 cannot be closed immediately unless the cylinder lock 196 is rotated. Therefore, the place where the pachinko machine 10 is installed is monitored by a hall computer or the like. Even if it takes some time to confirm the unauthorized opening of the front frame set 14 at a location away from the location and rush to the place where the fraudulent pachinko machine 10 is installed, the front frame set 14 is illegal. This increases the possibility of being able to hold down the open site, and synergistically exhibits the above effects.

  Further, as described above, the front side of the inner frame 12 is provided with the rib R1 into which the front frame set 14 is fitted inside when the front frame set 14 is closed. In this embodiment, the rib R1 is shown in FIG. From the state in which the front frame set 14 is closed, as shown in FIG. 23, the front surface of the support portion 421 (the lower surface in FIG. 23) rather than the vertical side portion 462 of the slide member 461 in the second position. ) Is positioned rearward (upward in FIG. 23), the rear side peripheral edge of the front frame set 14 is covered with the rib R1. That is, in a state where the front surface of the support portion 421 is positioned forward of the vertical side portion 462 of the slide member 461 in the second position, a wire or the like is caused to enter from between the front frame set 14 and the inner frame 12. Difficult or impossible. Therefore, it is possible to suppress an illegal act by opening the front frame set 14. In addition, just because it is difficult for the fraudster to perform the fraud, the front frame set 14 is moved until the front surface of the support portion 421 is located behind the vertical side portion 462 of the slide member 461 in the second position. When opened, the support portion 421 comes into contact with the vertical side portion 462 and thus the contact side portion 451 as described above, and the front frame set 14 cannot be closed. Therefore, it is possible to more surely achieve the effect of making it easier to find an illegal act by opening the front frame set 14.

  In addition, when the rear surface of the support portion 421 is positioned on the guide side portion 414, detection by the open detection sensor 22 is not performed. As described above, in this embodiment, when the front frame set 14 is only slightly opened due to the presence of the rib R1, it is very difficult or impossible to perform an illegal act. Therefore, the rear surface of the support portion 421 is the guide side portion 414. There is no particular problem even if the opening of the front frame set 14 is not detected when positioned above. By adopting such a configuration, it is not necessary to increase the detection accuracy of the open detection sensor 22 so much, and the configuration can be simplified and the cost can be reduced.

  Next, the configuration of the back surface of the pachinko machine 10 will be described with reference to FIG. Various types of control boards are arranged on the pachinko machine 10 on the back side (actually on the back side of the inner frame 12 and the game board 30) so that they are arranged vertically and partially and overlapped in front and back. Furthermore, a game ball supply device (payout mechanism) for supplying game balls, a protective cover made of resin, and the like are attached.

Yes. In this case, the main board and the sub-control board are mounted on one mounting base to form a unit, and the dispensing control board, launch control board, and power supply board are mounted on the other mounting base to form a unit. Here, for convenience, the former unit is referred to as “first control board unit 201”, and the latter unit is referred to as “second control board unit 202”. In addition, since the dispensing mechanism and the protective cover are integrated as one unit, and the resin portion is generally referred to as a back pack, the unit is referred to as a “back pack unit 203”. The detailed configuration of each unit 201 to 203 will be described later.

Specifically, below the back frame set 215, it corresponds to the game board opening of the above-described general winning opening 31, variable winning apparatus 32, first opportunity corresponding opening 33 (see FIG. 5 respectively), and 1 on the downstream side. A collection passage 216 that collects at a place is formed. Further, a resin discharge passage board 217 is attached to the inner frame 12 below the game board 30, and a discharge passage 218 for guiding the discharge ball to the outside of the pachinko machine 10 is attached to the discharge passage board 217. Is formed. Therefore, as illustrated in phantom lines in FIG. 8, all the game balls won in the general winning opening 31 etc. gather through the collection passage 216 of the back frame set 215, and further the discharge passage 218 of the discharge passage board 217.

  As mentioned above, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment at all, and it cannot be overemphasized that it can implement with a various form, unless it deviates from the meaning of this invention.

  (A) The configuration of the front frame set collar 14a in the above embodiment is not particularly limited, and the movable part movable between the second position and the first position, and the movable part is the first part. 2 and a buffer urging means for urging the front frame set 14, and when the front frame set 14 is closed, a force generated due to the pressure contact between the front frame set collar 14 a and the front frame set locking member 194 is generated. It only needs to be configured to be able to absorb. Hereinafter, an example of the above configuration will be described with reference to FIGS. 24 and 25. 24 and 25, the resin base 20 and the mounting plate 187 of the inner frame 12 are omitted. FIG. 24 shows a state where the front frame set collar 14a is in the second position, and FIG. 25 shows a state where the front frame set collar 14a is in the first position.

  As shown in the figure, the front frame set collar 14a is a substantially L-shaped main body including a first piece 701a extending in the vertical direction and a second piece 701b extending rearward from the lower end of the first piece 701a. And a claw portion 704 projecting downward from the distal end portion of the second piece portion 701b, and is provided so as to be rotatable with respect to a base member 707 extending rearward from the reinforcing plate 132.

  More specifically, a rotation hole 711 is formed in the upper part of the first piece 701a. The rotation hole 711 is protruded from the base member 707 in the outer peripheral direction of the front frame set 14, and a rotation protrusion 712 having a larger diameter portion than the rotation hole 711 is inserted at the tip portion. The one piece portion 701a is substantially in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the front frame set 14. Accordingly, the main body 701 is provided so as to be rotatable with respect to the base member 707. In this example, the main body portion 701 constitutes a movable portion, and the rotation hole 711 and the rotation protrusion 712 constitute a connection portion.

  In this example, the main body 701 is rotated about 20 degrees from the state in which the first piece 701a extends straight up and down so that the first piece 701a tilts backward (counterclockwise in FIG. 24). It is provided so as to be rotatable until it reaches a state. More specifically, the base member 707 includes a first restricting projection 714 that comes into contact with the front side of the first piece 701a when the first piece 701a extends straight up and down (see FIG. 25). When the first piece 701a is inclined (see FIG. 24), a second restricting projection 713 that contacts the upper side of the first piece 701a is provided. In this example, the position of the main body 701 in a state where the main body 701 and the first restricting protrusion 714 are in contact corresponds to the first position, and the main body 701 (first piece 701a), the second restricting protrusion 713, The position of the main body portion 701 in a state where the touches correspond to the second position.

  The front frame set collar 14a has one end fixed to the collar side hook 716 provided at the boundary between the first piece 701a and the second piece 701b, and the other end is the collar side hook 716. In addition, a coil spring C5 is provided as a buffer urging means fixed to a base side hanging portion 717 provided on the base member 707 at a position rearward and lower than that. By the coil spring C5, the main body 701 is always urged toward the rear second position.

  In addition, regardless of whether the main body portion 701 is located at the second position or the first position, the distal end portion of the second piece portion 701b protrudes rearward from the base member 707. Hereinafter, the tip of the second piece 701b is referred to as a restriction wall 721. Further, regardless of whether the main body 701 is located at the second position or the first position, the front end of the support portion 421 of the front frame set locking member 194 in the locked position when the front frame set 14 is open. The part is located above the lower end part of the regulating wall part 721. For this reason, when the front frame set 14 is closed (moved in the closing direction) without rotating the cylinder lock 196, the support portion 421 and the regulation wall portion 721 come into contact with each other.

  Further, the claw portion 704 connects the guide side portion 722 extending from the lower end portion of the restriction wall portion 721 toward the rear side while being inclined toward the base member 707, and the leading end portion of the guide side portion 722 and the second piece portion 701b. And a locking side portion 723 extending in this manner.

  The restriction wall portion 721 of the main body portion 701 at the second position is located at the upper end portion in front of the lower end portion, which is the end portion on the claw portion 704 side. In other words, the lower end portion of the restricting wall portion 721 (the boundary portion between the restricting wall portion 721 and the guide side portion 722) of the front frame set collar portion 14a is positioned at the most distal end (rear), and the rotation of the cylinder lock 196 is performed. When the front frame set 14 in the open state is moved in the closing direction without performing a moving operation, the support unit 421 is first contacted.

  In addition, the lower end portion of the restriction wall portion 721 of the main body portion 701 at the second position is located below the center position α of the rotation hole 711 (rotation protrusion 712), which is the protrusion direction side of the claw portion 704. ing. In other words, in the main body 701, when the front frame set 14 is moved in the closing direction without rotating the cylinder lock 196, the part that first contacts the support part 421 (in this example, the restriction wall part) The lower end portion of 721 is located below the center position α of the rotation hole 711 (rotation protrusion 712). For this reason, when the support part 421 and the lower end part of the regulation wall part 721 contact, the main-body part 701 turns downward centering on the rotation hole 711 (rotation protrusion 712) (clockwise direction of FIG. 24). ) It will rotate. In this example, the boundary portion between the regulation wall portion 721 and the guide side portion 722 is R-processed, whereby the regulation wall portion 721 and the guide side portion 722 are brought into contact with the main body portion 701 and the support portion 421. The possibility that the boundary portion and the support portion 421 are damaged is suppressed. In addition, the boundary portion between the R-processed regulation wall portion 721 and the guide side portion 722 includes a portion that first comes into contact with the support portion 421, and the portion above the portion is the regulation wall portion 721.

  The locking side portion 723 of the claw portion 704 of the main body portion 701 at the second position extends perpendicular to the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14. Further, in the support portion 421, the rear surface (locking surface) locked to the locking side portion 723 in the closed state of the front frame set 14 extends perpendicular to the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14. . In the state where the main body 701 is in the second position, the end (lower end) on the distal end side of the claw portion 704 of the locking side 723 is more base than the end (upper end) on the proximal end side. It is good also as being located in the member 707 side (front). Further, the locking surface of the support portion 421 is such that the base end portion (lower end portion) of the locking surface is closer to the base member 707 in the opening and closing direction of the front frame set 14 than the distal end portion (upper end portion). It is good also as extending so that it may be located (front).

  In addition, the lower side portion of the second piece 701b of the main body portion 701 at the second position extends obliquely with respect to the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14, but in this example, the front frame set 14, the distal end portion (upper surface) of the support portion 421 that comes into contact with the lower side portion of the second piece portion 701 b extends in parallel with the lower side portion of the second piece portion 701 b of the main body portion 701 at the second position. ing. Thereby, even if it does not lengthen the full length of the latching side part 723, the contact area of the latching side part 723 and the support part 421 can be increased. As a result, it is possible to stabilize the locking state of the locking side portion 723 and the support portion 421 (the locked state of the front frame set 14) without causing an increase in the size of the claw portion 704. Further, for example, since it is not necessary to extend the entire length of the locking side portion 723, it is not necessary to increase the movement range of the front frame set locking member 194 (set the unlocking position further downward), and the cylinder lock 196 Degradation of unlocking / locking operability can be prevented.

  The restriction wall portion 721 of the main body portion 701 at the first position extends perpendicular to the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14. Further, the front surface (contact surface) of the support portion 421 that contacts the restriction wall portion 721 extends perpendicular to the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14. In the state where the main body 701 is in the first position, the upper end of the restriction wall 721 is positioned closer to the base member 707 (front) than the one end (lower end) on the claw 704 side. It is good as well. Further, the contact surface of the support portion 421 extends so that the distal end side portion (upper end portion) of the contact surface is positioned closer to the base member 707 (front side) than the proximal end portion (lower end portion). Also good.

  Here, the movement of the front frame set collar 14a will be briefly described. As shown in FIG. 24, in a normal time when the regulating wall portion 721 and the support portion 421 are not in contact with each other, the regulating wall portion 721 is biased rearward by the coil spring C5. It exists in the 2nd position which contacts the 2nd control protrusion 713 in the piece part 701a.

  When the front frame set 14 is closed without rotating the cylinder lock 196, first, the lower end portion of the restriction wall portion 721 comes into contact with the support portion 421. When the front frame set 14 is further closed from the contact state, the restriction wall portion 721 is pushed by the support portion 421, so that the lower end portion of the restriction wall portion 721 slides on the front surface of the support portion 421. And the main body 701 rotates from the second position toward the first position. Then, as shown in FIG. 25, when the main body 701 is rotated to the first position where the first piece 701a contacts the first restricting protrusion 714, the restricting wall 721 and the support 421 face each other. It contacts and the further movement of the support part 421 toward the claw part 704 is restricted, and the front frame set 14 cannot be closed any more.

  As described above, the main body 701 is provided to be rotatable with respect to the base member 707, and the main body 701 is moved from the second position to the first position against the biasing force of the coil spring C5. When rotating, it is possible to absorb a force generated upon contact between the regulating wall portion 721 and the support portion 421 (contact between the front frame set collar portion 14a and the front frame set locking member 194). As a result, the same effect as the above embodiment is achieved.

  Further, the main body 701 that rotates from the first position to the second position is prevented from being rotated more than the second position by the second restricting protrusion 713. For this reason, when the regulation wall part 721 and the support part 421 come into contact with each other, the contact angle of the regulation wall part 721 with respect to the support part 421 is set so that the main body part 701 smoothly rotates to the first position side. Can be kept at any angle.

  Further, the portion of the force generated upon contact between the regulating wall portion 721 and the support portion 421 that cannot be absorbed by the coil spring C5 until the main body portion 701 reaches the first position is the first main body portion 701. It will be received by contacting the regulation protrusion 714. Accordingly, the movement of the front frame set 14 in the closing direction can be reliably restricted.

  In addition, the locking side portion 723 of the claw portion 704 of the main body portion 701 at the second position extends perpendicular to the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14, and the front frame set 14 of the support portion 421. The rear surface (locking surface) locked to the locking side portion 723 in the closed state extends perpendicular to the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14. For this reason, the locked state of the support part 421 and the locking side part 723 in the state in which the front frame set 14 is closed can be stabilized.

  In addition, the locking side portion 723 of the claw portion 704 and the rear surface (locking surface) of the support portion 421 are both orthogonal to the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14 and parallel to each other. For this reason, the contact area of the latching side part 723 and the support part 421 can be enlarged, and when the latching side part 723 and the support part 421 are press-contacted, the front-end | tip part of the nail | claw part 704 or the support part 421 is provided. It is possible to avoid the possibility that the corners are damaged. As a result, a decrease in durability of the claw portion 704 and the support portion 421 can be suppressed.

  (B) In the above embodiment, the slide member 461 is provided on the front frame set collar 14a (the collar body 411). However, the slide member 461 may be provided on the front frame set locking member 194 (support 421). . For example, a slide member that can slide along the opening and closing direction of the front frame set 14 is provided on the support portion 421, and a coil spring that biases the slide member forward is provided, so that the cylinder lock 196 can be rotated. When the front frame set 14 in the open state is moved in the closing direction without being performed, the front end portion of the front frame set collar portion 14a (the collar body 411) and the front end portion (vertical side portion) of the slide member come into contact with each other. It is good also as a structure.

  Further, a slide member 461 as a movable portion is provided at a location different from the front frame set collars 14a and 14b and the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 on the rear surface of the front frame set 14 and the front surface of the inner frame 12. May be. For example, the reinforcing plate 132 of the front frame set 14 is provided with a plate-like base portion extending rearward from the upper portion of the front frame set collar portions 14a and 14b, and a slide member is provided slidably back and forth with respect to the base portion. A coil spring that urges the slide member to the rear which is the second position side may be provided. However, it is assumed that the slide member in the second position and the inner frame 12 (resin base 20 or the like) are in contact with each other before the distal end portion of the collar body 411 and the support portion 421 are in contact with each other. Also by adopting such a configuration, the force generated due to the pressure contact between the front frame set 14 and the inner frame 12 can be absorbed by the slide member (coil spring), as in the above embodiment.

  In addition, when the said structure is employ | adopted, a recessed part is formed in the site | part corresponding to the arrangement | positioning position of a slide member (base part) among the inner frames 12, or a wall part is formed in the back side of a hole after forming a hole. It is desirable to stand upright. In this case, at least a part of the slide member (base part) positioned between the rear surface of the front frame set 14 and the front surface of the inner frame 12 can be accommodated in the recesses or holes when the front frame set 14 is closed. it can. Therefore, when the front frame set 14 is closed, the slide member (base portion) and the front surface of the inner frame 12 (resin base 20) are in contact with each other, so that the front frame set 14 and the inner frame 12 are largely separated. A gap is formed, and as a result, it is possible to prevent a possibility that the front-rear width of the pachinko machine 10 is increased. As in the above embodiment, the slide member 461 is provided on the front frame set collars 14a and 14b, so that when the front frame set 14 is closed by rotating the cylinder lock 196, the slide member 461 is moved. The front frame set 14 can be smoothly closed without contacting the inner frame 12 (support portion 421). Furthermore, complication of the configuration can be suppressed.

  (C) In the above embodiment, a rubber cushioning member may be provided for the vertical side portion 462 of the slide member 461. The buffer member may also be provided for the contact side 451 of the heel body 411. In this case, it is possible to absorb more force generated when the front frame set collar 14a and the front frame set locking member 194 come into contact with each other, and to prevent the vertical side portion 462, the contact side portion 451, and the support portion 421 from being damaged. can do.

  (D) In the above-described embodiment, the claw portion 412 includes a guide side portion 414 that extends downward from the lower end portion of the vertical side portion 462 toward the base end side of the heel body 411 and the distal end of the guide side portion 414. The engaging side portion 415 extends straight upward from the portion and has a substantially triangular shape, but the shape of the claw portion 412 is not particularly limited, and for example, the contact side portion 451 of the heel body 411 It is good also as a rectangular shape or trapezoid shape so that it may have a contact side part extended so that it may extend below. In this case, the movement of the front frame set 14 in the closing direction is also restricted when the support portion 421 contacts the contact side portion.

  (E) In the above-described embodiment, the lower end portion of the vertical side portion 462 may be positioned below the lower side portion of the portion of the heel body 411 positioned in front of the claw portion 412. In this case, the front-end | tip part of the support part 421 of the front frame set locking member 194 in a locking position is located substantially the same as the lower side part of the site | part located ahead of the nail | claw part 412 among the collar main bodies 411, or a little downward | lower. be able to. When this configuration is adopted, the front frame is always urged to the upper locking position side by the tensile force of the coil spring C2 in a state where the support portion 421 is locked to the claw portion 412 (locking side portion 415). It is possible to prevent a situation in which addition is always applied from the support portion 421 of the set locking member 194 to the front frame setting collar portion 14a. Therefore, the possibility that the front frame set collar 14a is damaged or deformed can be suppressed.

  (F) In the above embodiment, the claw portion 412 is protruded from the heel body 411, but the claw portion 412 may be protruded from the slide member 461.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the slide member 461 is slidable with respect to the bag main body 411 by inserting the slide protrusions 465 and 466 through the slide holes 463 and 464. It is not limited. For example, a pair of rail portions having a substantially L-shaped cross section are provided on the upper and lower sides of the slide member 461 with respect to the main body 411, and the upper and lower sides and the outer surface of the slide member 461 are slidably contacted with the pair of rail portions. Also good.

  In addition, when the slide member 461 is slid on the bag main body 411, a guide portion that is in sliding contact with the upper edge portion or the lower edge portion of the slide member 461 may be provided. In the case of adopting this configuration, the slide member 461 can be prevented from rotating, and rattling when the slide member 461 slides can be suppressed. Therefore, the slide holes (463, 464) and the slide protrusions (465, 466) can be prevented. ) May be just one set.

  In addition, for example, a length L3 obtained by subtracting the diameter of the sliding protrusions 465 and 466 from the front and rear widths of the sliding holes 463 and 464 is changed from the vertical side portion 462 of the sliding member 461 in the second position to the contact side portion 451. Even when the slide member 461 is in the first position, the vertical side portion 462 may be configured to be located behind the contact side portion 451 by shortening the distance to the distance L4. In this case, the support portion 421 does not contact the contact side portion 451.

  In the above embodiment, the slide member 461 is biased toward the second position by the force (tensile force) of the coil spring C4 to contract, that is, the slide member 461 is moved from the second position to the first position. The coil spring C4 is stretched when moving to the position side, but is not particularly limited to such a structure, and the slide member 461 is biased to the second position side. It only has to be. For example, the coil spring C5 is contracted when the slide member 461 moves from the second position to the first position, and the slide member 461 is moved to the second position by a force (repulsive force) that the coil spring tries to extend. It is good also as a structure urged | biased by the position side.

  (G) In the above-described embodiment, the front sides of the vertical side portion 462 and the support portion 421 extend orthogonal to the opening / closing direction of the front frame set 14. For example, the vertical side portion 462 includes the vertical side portion 462. The upper end portion may extend so as to be positioned on the proximal end side (front side) of the heel body 411 rather than the lower end portion on the claw portion 412 side, and the front surface of the support portion 421 is the front end side of the front surface ( The upper portion may extend so as to be positioned closer to the base end side (front side) of the flange member 411 than the base end side (lower side) portion.

  (H) In the above embodiment, the locking device G1 is provided on the inner frame 12, but the locking device G1 may be provided on the front frame set 14. Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the locking mechanism which locks the front frame set 14 with respect to the inner frame 12 and the locking mechanism which locks the inner frame 12 with respect to the outer frame 11 are comprised integrally, separately. It may be configured. Furthermore, in the said embodiment, the collar member (front frame set collar part 14a) which comprises the nail | claw part 412 in the front frame set 14 is provided, and the receiving member (front frame set locking) engaged with the claw part 412 in the locking device G1. Although the member 194) is provided, a receiving member may be provided in the front frame set 14, and a hook member may be provided in the locking device G1. In this case, the flange member moves between the locked position and the unlocked position. Moreover, in the said embodiment, only the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 move among the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 and the front frame set collars 14a and 14b, so that the front frame set 14 is locked and unlocked. However, the front frame set 14 may be locked and unlocked by moving both the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 and the front frame set collars 14a and 14b. For example, the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 may move downward in conjunction with the turning operation of the cylinder lock 196, and the front frame set collars 14a and 14b may move upward. Further, for example, only the front frame set locking members 194 and 195 are interlocked with the rotation operation of the cylinder lock 196. When the support portion 421 is in sliding contact with the guide side portion 414, the front frame set collar portion 14a, 14b may be pushed upward. In any case, when the front frame set collars 14a and 14b are configured to be movable up and down, a coil spring or the like is provided to urge the front frame set collars 14a and 14b downward on the locking position side. It is desirable.

  (I) In addition, in the above embodiment, the locking mechanism of the front frame set 14 that locks the front frame set 14 to the inner frame 12 is embodied, but the locking mechanism of the inner frame that locks the inner frame 12 to the outer frame 11 Alternatively, the same structure as the locking mechanism of the front frame set 14 may be provided. That is, you may provide a slide member with respect to the inner frame collar member 192,193. In addition, a separate slide member is not provided for the inner frame collar members 192 and 193, but the inner frame collar members 192 and 193 themselves are also displaced in the front-rear direction, and the inner frame collar members 192 and 193 are movable. You may comprise a part.

  Hereinafter, an example of the above configuration will be described with reference to FIGS. 26 shows a state where the inner frame collar member 192 is in the second position, and FIG. 27 shows a state where the inner frame collar member 192 is in the first position. The inner frame collar member 192 as a collar member includes a thin plate-shaped collar member main body 601 that is substantially in contact with the inner surface of the sliding collar 191 in the attached state, and an extending portion 603 extending rearward from the collar member main body 601. , And a claw portion 605 projecting downward from the tip of the extending portion 603. In this example, the front end portion (rear edge portion) of the collar member main body 601 and the rear end edge of the claw portion 605 are continuously extended straight. Hereinafter, the side part constituted by the rear edge part of the flange member main body 601 and the rear end edge of the claw part 605 is referred to as a restriction wall part 801.

  Further, the claw portion 605 has a guide side portion 811 extending forward from the lower end portion of the restriction wall portion 801, and a locking side portion extending so as to connect the tip end portion of the guide side portion 811 and the extension portion 603. 812. Further, the inner frame collar member 192 projects from the lower part of the collar member main body 601 toward the inner side of the inner frame 12 (inner peripheral side of the window portion 21), and as a substantially columnar connection portion having a diameter-expanded portion at the tip. The sliding protrusion 607 is provided. On the other hand, an oval insertion hole 609 and a sliding hole 611 are formed in the sliding rod 191 and the support plate 188 at positions facing the sliding protrusion 607. The insertion hole 609 and the sliding hole 611 are configured such that the vertical width is larger than the diameter of the sliding projection 607 and the horizontal width is smaller than the diameter of the enlarged diameter portion of the sliding projection 607. The sliding protrusion 607 is inserted into the corresponding insertion hole 609 and sliding hole 611, and the enlarged diameter portion of the sliding protrusion 607 is located on the window portion 21 side of the support plate 188, thereby supporting plate 188 ( An inner frame collar member 192 is provided so as to be capable of relative movement (sliding) in the vertical direction with respect to the base frame 186) and the sliding collar 191. With such a configuration, when the sliding hook 191 moves upward in conjunction with the turning operation of the cylinder lock 196, the inner frame hook member 192 moves to the lower edge of the insertion hole 609 of the sliding hook 191 in the sliding protrusion 607. It will be pushed upward in contact with the part. That is, the inner frame collar member 192 slides upward in conjunction with the upward sliding movement of the sliding collar 191.

  The inner frame collar member 192 is always pulled downward by a coil spring C1 having one end fixed to the inner frame collar member 192 (the collar member main body 601) and the other end fixed to the support plate 188. It has been. Of the sliding range of the inner frame collar member 192, the lower position (position where the sliding projection 607 and the lower edge of the sliding hole 611 substantially contact) corresponds to the locking position of the inner frame collar member 192, and the upper position. (The position where the sliding protrusion 607 and the upper edge of the sliding hole 611 substantially contact) corresponds to the unlocking position of the inner frame collar member 192. Further, when the inner frame collar member 192 is in the locked position, the upper end portion of the pawl horse 83 is located between the upper end portion and the lower end portion of the restriction wall portion 801. For this reason, even if the inner frame 12 is moved in the closing direction when the inner frame collar member 192 is in the locking position, the regulation wall 801 and the claw horse 83 come into contact with each other so that the inner frame 12 cannot be closed. ing. On the other hand, when the inner frame collar member 192 is in the unlocked position, the upper end portion of the claw horse 83 is positioned below the claw portion 605. For this reason, when the inner frame collar member 192 is in the locked position, the inner frame 12 can be closed by applying a force in the closing direction to the inner frame 12. In this example, the inner frame 12 constitutes a door body, the outer frame 11 constitutes a fixed frame, and the claw horse 83 constitutes a receiving member and a support portion.

  Further, the attachment plate 187 is formed with a restriction hole 803 as a restriction means at a portion corresponding to the flange member main body 601 of the inner frame flange member 192 in the locking position. As described above, the inner frame collar member 192 is only connected to the support plate 188 by inserting the substantially cylindrical sliding protrusion 607 through the insertion hole 609 and the sliding hole 611. If there is no portion in contact with the side portion of the inner frame flange member 192 such as the mounting plate 187, it can be rotated. In this example, a space that allows the inner frame collar member 192 to rotate is secured by the restriction hole 803, and thus the inner frame collar member 192 is provided to be rotatable with respect to the support plate 188. In addition, the claw portion 605 is located above the sliding protrusion 607. For this reason, by pressing the restriction wall portion 801 and the guide side portion 811 forward or upward, the upper portion of the flange member main body 601 is inserted into the restriction hole 803, so that the flange member main body 601 has the sliding protrusion 607. It will rotate forward about the center position. Further, when the front end edge of the flange member main body 601 and the lower edge portion of the restriction hole 803 come into contact with each other, further rotation of the flange member main body 601 is restricted. In this example, the lower edge portion of the restriction hole 803 constitutes the first restriction portion. Also, the sliding rod 191 comes into contact with the lower edge portion of the collar member main body 601 when the collar member main body 601 comes out of the restriction hole 803 and the collar member main body 601 extends vertically along the sliding collar 191. A second restricting portion 805 that restricts further rotation of the flange member main body 601 is provided. In this example, the center position of the sliding projection 607 corresponds to the rotation center position of the flange member.

  Further, the restriction hole 803 is positioned slightly above the upper end of the inner frame collar member 192 whose upper edge is in the locked position and the second position, and the inner frame collar member 192 whose lower edge is in the locked position. It is located slightly above the center position of the restricting projection 607.

  In this example, the upper portion of the flange member main body 601 is inserted into the restriction hole 803, and the flange member main body 601 (inner frame flange member 192) when the flange member main body 601 and the lower edge of the restriction hole 803 are in contact with each other. ) Corresponds to the first position, the inner frame collar member 192 when the collar member main body 601 and the second regulating portion 805 are in contact with each other without the collar member main body 601 inserted into the restriction hole 803. The position corresponds to the second position. 26 and 27, the resin base 20 of the inner frame 12 is not shown, but the upper portion of the inner frame collar member 192 is inserted into the resin base 20 at a position corresponding to the restriction hole 803. Permissible holes or recesses are formed.

  Further, in this example, one end portion of the coil spring C1 as the urging means fixed to the inner frame flange member 192 is located above and in front of the other end portion fixed to the mounting plate 187. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 26, in the state where the inner frame collar member 192 is in the second position, one end portion of the coil spring C1 fixed to the inner frame collar member 192 is connected to the inner frame collar member 192. It is located above and rearward (rightward in FIG. 26) above the sliding projection 607 that is the center of rotation. Further, as shown in FIG. 27, in the state where the inner frame collar member 192 is in the first position, the sliding projection 607 which is the rotation center of the inner frame collar member 192 is formed at one end and the other end of the coil spring C1. It is located in the front side of the straight line (coil spring C1) which connects a part. That is, the inner frame collar member 192 is urged toward the lower locking position and also urged toward the rear second position. Therefore, a force in the clockwise direction in FIGS. 26 and 27 acts on the inner frame collar member 192 around the sliding projection 607.

  In addition, the restriction wall 801 of the inner frame collar member 192 in the first position extends in a direction (vertical direction) orthogonal to the opening / closing direction of the inner frame 12. Further, the locking side portion 812 of the inner frame collar member 192 in the second position extends in a direction (vertical direction) orthogonal to the opening / closing direction of the inner frame 12. Further, the contact surface (front surface) of the pawl horse 83 that comes into contact with the regulating wall portion 801 and the engagement surface (rear surface) of the claw horse 83 that is locked to the locking side portion 812 in the closed state of the inner frame 12 are: The inner frame 12 extends in a direction (vertical direction) orthogonal to the opening / closing direction of the inner frame 12.

  The support plate 188 is a base portion that protrudes from the rear edge portion (right end portion in FIG. 26) to the inner side of the base frame 186 (front side in FIG. 26) at a portion corresponding to the inner frame flange member 192 in the locking position. And a substantially L-shaped sliding guide portion 613 comprising a contact portion extending downward from the tip of the base portion. The inner frame collar member 192 is inserted into the slit 615 formed inside the sliding guide portion 613, thereby suppressing the rattling when the inner frame collar member 192 slides. However, the sliding guide portion 613 is provided at a position that does not hinder the rotation of the inner frame collar member 192 at the locking position.

  In the closed state of the inner frame 12, the claw portion 605 is locked to the rear surface of the claw horse 83 fixed inside the outer frame 11. Thereby, opening of the inner frame 12 in the closed state is restricted. Note that the lower inner frame flange member 193 and the parts corresponding thereto have the same configuration.

  Here, the movement of the inner frame collar member 192 will be briefly described. When the inner frame 12 is closed without rotating the cylinder lock 196, first, the restriction wall portion 801 and the pawl horse 83 of the inner frame collar member 192 (see FIG. 26) in the second position are located. Make contact (line contact). By further closing the inner frame 12 from the contact state, the inner frame collar member 192 is pushed by the claw horse 83 and resists the tensile force of the coil spring C1 from the second position to the front first position side. To turn. Then, when the saddle member main body 601 and the lower edge of the restriction hole 803 come into contact (see FIG. 27), the relative movement of the pawl horse 83 toward the claw 605 is restricted, and the inner frame 12 moves in the closing direction. Is regulated. As a result, the inner frame 12 cannot be closed any further. For this reason, it becomes easy to discover that the inner frame 12 has been illegally opened. As a result, the inner frame 12 is illegally unlocked, and the control device provided on the back side of the inner frame 12 is illegally operated or replaced. By doing so, it is possible to suppress illegal acts such as acquiring a lot of game media.

  By adopting the above-described configuration, while the inner frame collar member 192 moves from the second position to the first position, an impact caused by the collision between the inner frame collar member 192 and the claw horse 83 is coiled. It can be absorbed by the spring C1, and the fear that the inner frame brim member 192, the claw horse 83, etc. will be damaged can be prevented.

  In this example, the inner frame collar member 192 is slid between the locking position and the unlocking position, and the inner frame 12 is locked / unlocked with respect to the outer frame 11. The inner frame collar member 192 is configured to be rotatable, and the inner frame collar member 192 is set by attaching the coil spring C1 so as to bias the inner frame collar member 192 toward the second position. In this configuration, the force generated at the time of press contact with the claw horse 83 is absorbed. For this reason, the effect of absorbing the force generated when the inner frame collar member 192 and the claw horse 83 are pressed together can be obtained without increasing the number of parts or complicating the configuration.

  Further, the inner frame collar member 192 (the collar member main body 601) that rotates from the first position to the second position is prevented from being rotated more than the second position by the second restricting portion 805. . For this reason, when the inner frame collar member 192 (the regulating wall portion 801) and the claw horse 83 come into contact with each other, the inner frame collar member 192 is smoothly moved to the first position side so that the inner frame collar member 192 smoothly rotates to the first position side. The contact angle of the frame flange member 192 (the restriction wall portion 801) can be maintained at an intended angle.

  Further, of the force generated due to the pressure contact between the inner frame collar member 192 and the claw horse 83, the amount that could not be absorbed by the coil spring C1 until the inner frame collar member 192 reached the first position, The inner frame collar member 192 is received by contacting the lower edge portion of the restriction hole 803 as the first restriction portion. Accordingly, the movement of the front frame set 14 in the closing direction can be reliably restricted.

  Further, when the claw portion 605 is lifted to move the inner frame collar member 192 to the unlocked position side and the inner frame 12 is to be unlocked illegally, the inner frame collar member 192 rotates toward the first position. Will be. As described above, when the inner frame collar member 192 is in the first position, the upper portion of the collar member main body 601 is inserted into the restriction hole 803, so that the inner frame collar member 192 is moved upward. Even so, the collar member main body 601 comes into contact with the upper edge of the regulation hole 803, and the upward movement of the inner frame collar member 192 is regulated. For this reason, unauthorized actions such as illegally unlocking the inner frame 12 and illegally operating or exchanging control devices provided on the back side of the inner frame 12 to acquire a large number of game media are ensured. Can be suppressed.

  The restriction wall portion 801 of the inner frame collar member 192 in the first position extends in a direction (vertical direction) orthogonal to the opening / closing direction of the inner frame 12. Further, a contact surface (front surface) of the claw horse 83 that comes into contact with the restriction wall portion 801 extends in a direction (vertical direction) orthogonal to the opening / closing direction of the inner frame 12. With these configurations, when the regulating wall portion 801 and the pawl horse 83 are brought into pressure contact with each other, the pawl horse 83 is relatively moved in a direction away from the contact portion so as to be guided by the regulating wall portion 801 or the contact surface. It is possible to avoid such a risk that the pawl horse 83 is detached from the contact site.

  The locking side portion 812 of the inner frame collar member 192 in the second position extends in a direction (vertical direction) orthogonal to the opening / closing direction of the inner frame 12. In addition, a locking surface (rear surface) that is locked to the locking side portion 812 in the closed state of the inner frame 12 of the claw horse 83 extends in a direction (vertical direction) orthogonal to the opening / closing direction of the inner frame 12. . That is, since the locking side portion 812 of the inner frame collar member 192 in the second position and the locking surface of the claw horse 83 are parallel, the contact area between the locking side portion 812 and the claw horse 83 is increased. It can be as large as possible. Therefore, when the locking side portion 812 and the claw horse 83 are in pressure contact with each other, the possibility that the claw portion 605 and the claw horse 83 are damaged can be suppressed, and the durability of the claw portion 605 and the claw horse 83 can be suppressed. Decline can be suppressed.
