Description

  The present invention relates to a game board used for a ball game machine such as a pachinko machine.

  A pachinko machine, which is a typical example of a ball game machine, is equipped with a game board that forms a game area on the front and a front frame that houses and holds the game board in a standing posture, and a processing path for game balls is provided on the front and back, and various types are provided on the back The back set board to which the control board is attached is attached from the back, and it is configured to play a game to win a winning device provided in the game area in the process of dropping the game ball guided to the upper part of the game area by the launching device ing.

The game board is composed of a decorative board formed by pasting cells printed with a predetermined pattern on a rectangular veneer board that has been subjected to router processing, etc., and a rail member that guides the game ball is attached to the front of the decorative board Thus, a substantially circular game area is defined (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In the game area, a large number of game nails, winning devices, etc. are attached, and a center ornament is attached to the periphery of the opening provided in the substantially central part, and a pattern according to game development is installed in this opening part. A symbol display device for displaying and enhancing game play is disposed with a display unit such as a liquid crystal panel facing the front.
JP 2004-242744 A

  In recent years, with the increase in the size of the symbol display device, the center ornament on which the symbol display device is disposed has also increased in size. Therefore, for example, a region where the game ball rolls down is formed to be biased to the left side of the game board (game region), and accordingly, the game nail tends to be biased to the left side of the game board (game region). However, there are cases in which the game boards in which only the game nails are driven are stacked at the time of manufacture of the game board, and in the configuration in which the game nails are biased to the left side of the game board (plywood board), the game nails are only driven in. When stacking the game boards, there was a risk that the game boards would lose balance and fall. In this case, it is necessary to take measures to prevent the game board from falling using a jig or the like, and there is a concern that the manufacturing efficiency of the game board may be reduced.

  The present invention has been made in view of such problems, and an object thereof is to provide a game board for a ball game machine that can be efficiently manufactured.

In order to achieve such an object, in the present invention, a game component for playing a game and a veneer plate to which a game component is attached on the front surface are provided, and a plurality of game nails constituting the game component are provided on the front surface of the veneer plate. In a game board of a ball game machine (for example, the pachinko machine PM in the embodiment) arranged to be biased to one side, attachment of game components located on the opposite side to the side where game nails are unevenly distributed on the front surface of the plywood board The portion is provided with a nail arrangement portion on which a nail member can be arranged, and the nail member arranged on the nail arrangement portion is accommodated in a game component located on the side opposite to the side where game nails are unevenly distributed. In the manufacturing process of the game board, the nail member disposed in the nail disposing portion when the game nails and the veneer plate in which only the nail member is disposed are stacked in the same direction. According to the loading To the side where the game nail is unevenly distributed in the proof plywood is opposite parts adapted to be supported.

  In the above-described invention, the gaming component located on the side opposite to the side where the game nails are unevenly distributed is a rail member attached in the vicinity of the outer peripheral portion on the front surface of the plywood board, and is surrounded by the inside of the rail member on the front face of the plywood board. Thus, it is preferable that game nails constituting the game component parts are arranged to form a game area in which the game ball can roll and move.

  Furthermore, in the above-mentioned invention, it is preferable that the nail member is composed of the same kind of nail as the game nail.

  According to the present invention, the nail disposition portion capable of disposing the nail member is provided on the opposite side of the front surface of the plywood from the side where the game nails are unevenly distributed. When stacking game boards that have only been driven in, the nail members arranged in the nail arrangement part support the part of the game board opposite to the side where the game nails are unevenly distributed to prevent the game board from tilting. Therefore, it is not necessary to use a jig or the like, and the game board can be manufactured efficiently.

  In the above-mentioned invention, it is preferable that the game component located on the side opposite to the side where game nail is unevenly distributed is a rail member, and the nail member is covered with the rail member located outside the game area, so that the game Nail members can be placed without affecting the design of the area.

  Furthermore, in the above-described invention, it is preferable that the nail member is composed of the same type of nail as the game nail, and thereby the nail member can be disposed at low cost.
