First, on the surface of each control unit, as shown in FIG. 1, a mark (hereinafter referred to as “unit removal order”) in which a number indicating the order of removal between the control units is enclosed in the vicinity of the unit name display position. Mark 40 ") is displayed. More specifically, a unit removal order mark 40 having a number “1” is displayed on the payout control unit 22 and a number “2” is displayed on the liquid crystal unit cover 16. Moreover, since the launch control unit 18 and the power supply unit 20 are in a relationship of overlapping with the main control unit 21 so that a part of the launch control unit 18 and the power control unit 21 are hidden behind the launch control unit 18, the launch control unit 18 and the launch control unit 4 ", And the unit removal order mark 40 having the number" 5 "is displayed on the power supply unit.

  In the assembled state shown in the figure, the payout control unit 22, the liquid crystal unit cover 16, and the main control unit 21 may be removed first without any overlapping relationship. However, for convenience of explanation, the payout control unit 22 The unit removal order marks 40 are displayed so as to be removed in order. The same applies to the launch control unit 18 and the power supply unit 20. The unit name and the unit removal mark 40 are simultaneously engraved by molding the protective cover of each control unit.

Next, other disassembly information will be specifically described by taking the above-described payout control unit 22 as an example.
At the center of the surface of the payout control unit 22, the entire work procedure of the dismantling work for the payout control unit 22 is displayed (hereinafter referred to as “whole work procedure display”). The dismantling work of the payout control unit 22 is roughly divided into a first work for removing the payout control unit 22 from the accommodation plate 37, a second work for opening the protective cover, and for disassembling the circuit board 27. It consists of a third work, and in the center part, marks (hereinafter referred to as “work order mark 41”) in which numbers corresponding to them are circled are displayed in a line, and each work content is displayed next to them. The mark corresponding to is displayed.

Among these, for the first work content, a graphic 42 is displayed next to the work order mark 41 to suggest that the screw is to be removed.
Next, for the second work content, a figure 43 suggesting destruction is shown beside the work order mark 41, and the same work order mark is located in the vicinity of the sealing means 33, 33 which is the work target location. 41 is displayed. The work order mark 41 and the figures 42 and 43 of the first and second work are also stamped by molding the protective cover.

  Subsequently, the third work content is printed on a sticker affixed to the surface of the payout control unit 22. The third work content consists of a first unit work for removing the circuit board 27 from the case body 25 and a second unit work (screw removal, electronic component removal) for removing the IC package 28 from the circuit board 27, On the sticker, marks (hereinafter referred to as “unit work order mark 44”) in which numbers corresponding to the numbers are enclosed in parentheses are also printed in a line, and a mark corresponding to each work content beside them. 45 is printed.

In addition, on the surface of the payout control unit 22, an individual position display mainly for indicating each work target portion of the first to third work is displayed slightly smaller than the whole work procedure display. More specifically, for the first work, the same mark as the work order mark 41 is stamped in the vicinity of the joints 37C and 37C of the accommodation plate 37, which is the work target location. Along with this, a fraction display mark 47 is engraved (corresponding to the configuration of means 3) consisting of the work order between these work target locations and the total number of all work target locations (in this case, the same as the number of screws). ).
Similarly, in the second work, the same mark as the work order mark 41 of the second work and the fraction display mark 47 are also engraved in the vicinity of the sealing means 33 and 33 that are the work target locations. (Corresponding to the configuration of the means 6).
In addition to the fraction display marks 47, an instruction diagram (indicated by a dotted arrow 48 in FIG. 2) pointing from the display position to the work target location may be displayed (corresponding to the configuration of the means 8). ).
As for the third work, the work target location is indicated on the individual scale 46 of the circuit board 27 printed on the sticker. That is, in the individual scale 46, the unit work order marks 44 are printed at positions corresponding to the work target locations of the first and second unit work (corresponding to the configuration of the means 10). Further, the IC package drawings on the individual scale 46 are painted yellow, for example, to indicate that they are reusable parts (corresponding to the configuration of the means 11).

  Next, the dismantling work of the pachinko machine configured as described above will be described. Each control unit is marked with the unit removal order mark 40 (see FIG. 1), and it can be seen that the payout control unit 22 should be removed first. Here, on the surface of the payout control unit 22, the overall work procedure display is displayed at a conspicuous position in the center, and the individual position display is displayed smaller than that. I can grasp. First, the entire work contents for disassembling the payout control unit 22 can be grasped by looking at the entire work procedure display, and the position of the individual display with the same mark as the work order mark 41 of each work content is found. Thus, it is possible to know that this is the work target position. Hereinafter, a specific work flow will be described.

  First, a screw fastened to the joints 37C and 37C by the mark indicating the work contents next to the work order mark 41 of No. 1 and the same work order mark 41 displayed near the joints 37C and 37C. It can be seen that 38 and 38 may be removed. Moreover, by looking at the fraction display displayed together with the same work order mark 41 in the vicinity of the joint portions 37C and 37C, the total number of work target locations (the number of screws) and the order of the work locations can be known. Here, for example, as in the present embodiment, the connector portion 29 is arranged in the vicinity of the joint portions 37C and 37C, and the screws 38 of the joint portions 37C and 37C are hidden by signal cables from other control units, which are difficult to find. There is. Even in such a case, the work order mark 41 or the like is displayed at a position deviated from the work target place as in the present embodiment, so that the work target place can be easily searched for using it as a clue. . With this operation, the payout control unit 22 can be detached from the accommodation plate 37.

  Next, if the seal means 33 and 33 are destroyed by the mark indicating the work contents next to the work order mark 41 of No. 2 and the same work order mark 41 displayed in the vicinity of the seal means 33 and 33, I know it ’s good. Thereby, as shown in FIG. 4, the case main body 25 and the case cover part 26 can be isolate | separated.

Then, by confirming the mark indicating the first unit work contents beside the work order mark 41 of No. 3 displayed on the surface of the case lid part 26 and the individual scale diagram 46, one side edge part of the circuit board 27 It can be seen that the two screws 31, 31 located at both ends may be removed, whereby the circuit board 27 can be removed from the case body 25. Similarly, by confirming the mark indicating the second unit work content and the individual scale 46, it can be understood that the two IC packages 28 among the electronic components on the circuit board 27 may be removed (see FIG. 5). In addition, it is possible to know that they can be reused by color display, and since it is clear from the waste parts that are not displayed in color, work mistakes such as accidental disposal are prevented. Can do.
Thereafter, the other control units are also disassembled in the order of the numbers of the unit removal order marks 40.

As described above, if the pachinko machine of the present embodiment is used, even if a person who is not familiar with the configuration of the pachinko machine is not familiar with the configuration of the pachinko machine, it is necessary to see the disassembly information displayed on each control unit. It is possible to easily proceed with a series of operations until the player is detached from the game board 12 and disassembled, thereby improving the efficiency and workability of the dismantling operation.
It should be noted that disassembly information and the like of each control unit is desirably arranged at a position where it can be visually recognized in the state assembled to the game board 12 as shown in FIG. This is because it is possible to know in advance which units are present and how to perform the dismantling work, and further the efficiency of the dismantling work can be improved.

Further, in addition to the configuration of the present embodiment, a configuration in which an overall scale view of the entire rear configuration of the pachinko machine is displayed (corresponding to the configuration of the means 13) may be used. Specifically, for example, an overall scale diagram schematically showing the back structure of a pachinko machine as shown in FIG. 6 at the center position of the surface of the liquid crystal part case 16 that stands out for the first time (portion surrounded by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 1). A configuration may also be adopted in which a sticker 39 is attached. Further, in the overall scale 39, predetermined colors are applied only to the drawings of the payout control unit 22, the liquid crystal unit 16, the main control unit 21, the launch control unit 18 and the power supply unit 20 to be dismantled in the present embodiment. Therefore, it can be distinguished from other functional units that do not require disassembly (corresponding to the configuration of the means 14).
With such a configuration, when disassembling the pachinko machine according to the present embodiment, it is possible to grasp the arrangement relationship of each functional unit at a glance and easily know how many functional units should be operated. It is possible to improve the efficiency and workability of the dismantling work.

Equivalent). Some functional parts of pachinko machines that have been used for a long time and were reusable at the time of manufacture may become unusable in the middle. It is possible to display the latest dismantling information corresponding to the change of the subject over time on the pachinko machine.

Second Embodiment
In the first embodiment, the unit removal order mark 40 is displayed on each control unit, and the removal operation is performed in the order of the numbers. However, in this embodiment, the unit removal order mark is provided for each control unit. 40 is not displayed. In such a case, it is difficult to determine in which order each control unit should be removed. For example, as shown in FIG. 7, the power supply unit 20 is assembled to the game board 12 with all four screws B1 to B4, and two of these screws B3 and B4 are hidden behind other control units. Yes. In such a case, the operator erroneously determines that the power supply unit can be removed if only the two visible screws B1 and B2 are removed, and forcibly pulls out and destroys the two screws B1 and B2. There is a risk of it. In this embodiment, the disassembly work can be carried out without difficulty even if the unit removal order mark 40 is not displayed on each control unit. Note that the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and redundant description is omitted, and only different points will be described next.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7, in the vicinity of the four screws B <b> 1 to 4 on the surface of the power supply unit 20, the total number of work target locations (the total number of screws in this embodiment is four) and the work target. The number of the work order of each place is stamped as a fraction display mark 50. Further, in the vicinity of the screw B2, a white arrow 51 indicating the direction of the mounting position (work target location) of the two hidden screws B3 and B4 is engraved (corresponding to the configuration of the means 4). Therefore, it can be known from the fraction display mark 50 that it is only necessary to remove the visible screws B1 and B2 and that there are two other screws to be removed. Further, the direction of the position where the remaining two screws B3 and B4 exist can be known from the white arrow 51 in the vicinity of B2, and it can be known that the control unit 21 should be removed first. Therefore, it is possible to prevent work mistakes such as forcibly pulling out the power supply unit 20 and detour work mistakes such as removing the payout control unit 22 with priority over the main control unit 21, and it is possible to efficiently remove a specific function unit.

<Third Embodiment>
This embodiment is also for coping with the same problem as the second embodiment, and the disassembly information display mode is different from the second embodiment.
As shown in FIG. 8, in the exposed portion of the surface of the power supply unit 20, the fraction display mark 60 for the two screws B3 and B4 hidden behind the main control unit 21 and their display positions are the work objects. A white arrow 61 for indicating the direction of the mounting position of each of the screws B3 and B4 as the locations is displayed (corresponding to the configuration of the means 9). With such a configuration, even if the work target location is hidden behind another functional unit or the like, if the fraction display mark 60 and the white arrow 61 displayed at a visible position are seen, It is possible to know the work content and location of the work target location, and it is possible to improve the efficiency of the work of removing the power supply unit 20.

<Fourth embodiment>
This embodiment is also for coping with the same problem as the second embodiment, and the disassembly information display mode is different from the second embodiment.
As shown in FIG. 9, a mark 52 indicating work contents, a work man-hour 53, and an individual scale 54 of the power supply unit 20 are displayed on the exposed portion of the surface of the power supply unit 20. In FIG. 54, it is comprised so that the position of each work object location may be pointed out (equivalent to the structure of the means 10).
With such a configuration, it is possible to clearly grasp the positional relationship of all screws immediately by looking at the individual scale map 54, and it is possible to further improve the efficiency of the dismantling work.
