The card 1 has a prize 103, an information chip 106, and a barcode / store name display material 107 installed at a predetermined position on the main body 100, and a connecting material 102 and a first cover at a predetermined position on the prize 103. After the cover 104 is put on, the second cover 105 is attached. The connecting material 102 may be attached to the main body 100 before placing the prize 103.

  The main body 100 is roughly divided into two concave portions 110 and 120. The recessed part 110 accommodates the prize 103 and parts related thereto. The recess 120 accommodates the barcode / store name display member 107. In addition, although it is a setting item, the main body 100 does not have a recess for the information chip 106. The information chip 106 is only installed at a predetermined position.

  FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of the concave portion 110, the connecting material 102, the prize 103, and the first cover 104 of the main body 100 shown in FIG.

  The recess 110 includes a first recess 110a and a second recess 110b. The first recess 110a has a first area (area shown by hatching in the drawing) that is shallower than the prize 103 and wider than the prize. In the present embodiment, the premium 103 has a height t1 (see FIG. 8) of 0.8 mm, and the first recess 110a (first region) has a size of 29 mm × 18 mm, and its depth t2 (see FIG. 8)). Is 0.35 mm. The second recess 110b has a depth greater than or equal to the prize 103, and has a shape in which the prize can be fitted and fixed. In the present embodiment, the depth t3 (see FIG. 8) is 0.9 mm. That is, the bottom surface of the second recess 110b is located at a deeper position t4 = 0.55 mm than the first recess 110a.

  The prize 103 is provided with a step 103a around the edge. The step 103a is at a position that is equal to or higher than the bottom surface of the first recess 110a when a prize is fitted into the second recess 110b. In the present embodiment, the height t5 (see FIG. 8) of the step 103a is provided at a position of 0.6 mm. The step 103a has a step shape. However, the step 103a may be variously modified as long as the step 103a can be fitted into an opening 104a of the first cover 104 to be described later and the first cover can be fixed.

  The first cover 104 is made of a hard material that can resist the cutter blade. The above-mentioned “hard material that can resist the cutter blade” means a hardness that the first cover 104 is not cut or partially cut by a commercially available cutter blade made of stainless steel, steel, or the like, in other words, Means a material having a hardness that is completely or substantially uncut. For example, materials such as stainless steel and ultra-hard resin can be mentioned. Since the first cover 104 is made of the above-described material, even if the cutter blade is pressed to cut around the prize from the second cover 105, it is not easily cut off.

  The first cover 104 has a shape that fits into the first recess 110 a, and has an opening 104 a that fits into the step 103 a at the edge of the prize inside, and the prize 103 has When fitted, the thickness is the same position as the upper surface of the prize or a position lower than the prize surface. In the present embodiment, the thickness t6 (see FIG. 8) is 0.15 mm. By adopting this configuration, even if the second cover 105 around the first recess is removed with a cutter, the first cover is fitted in the first recess, so that the cutter blade can be inserted between them. It is extremely difficult. Furthermore, if a cutter blade is inserted between the first cover 104 and the prize 103, the prize will be damaged, and the prize cannot be removed cleanly. In order to take out the prize cleanly, it is necessary to fold and break the card body 1, and as a result, illegal use of the prize card from which the prize has been taken out is effectively prevented.

  More preferably, the first cover 104 is plastically deformed in response to the pressing of the cutter blade. In this embodiment, stainless steel is used. A resin or an alloy may be used as long as the above conditions are satisfied. By adopting this configuration, it is possible to make it more difficult to insert the blade of the cutter between the first recess 110 a and the first cover 104.

  The connecting material 102 is interposed between the first cover 104 and the bottom surface of the first recess 110a, and connects the first cover 104 and the bottom surface of the first recess 110a. The connecting agent 102 is preferably a double-sided tape having a cushioning property that allows plastic deformation of the first cover 104. In the present embodiment, the thickness t7 (see FIG. 8) is 0.05 mm.

  FIG. 4 shows the shape of the prize 103 and the dimensions in this embodiment. FIG. 4A shows an overall top view and a side view. FIG. 4B shows an enlarged view of the portion A shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 4B, the thickness t1 of the prize 103 is 0.8 mm, and the height t5 of the step provided at the peripheral edge is 0.6 mm.

  FIG. 5 shows the shape of the first cover 104 and the dimensions in the present embodiment. The first cover 104 has a size of 28.9 mm × 17.9 mm so as to fit into the first recess 110 a and has an opening 104 a that fits into the step 103 a of the prize 103. The thickness t6 is 0.15 mm.

The connecting member 102 has a size of 28.9 mm × 17.9 mm so as to fit into the first recess 110a, and slightly absorbs the same size or manufacturing error as the second recess 110b. A large opening 102a (for example, approximately 0.02 to 0.04 mm larger in the radial direction than the outer shape of the second recess 110b) is provided. The thickness t7 is 0.05 mm.

  FIG. 7 shows the shape of the second cover 105 and the dimensions in this embodiment. The second cover 105 includes a transparent window 105a provided on the opening 105a of the first cover 104, and an opaque second region 105e that hides at least the first cover around the transparent window 105a. Yes. In addition to the transparent window 105a, the second cover 105 of the present embodiment includes transparent windows 105b, 105c, and 105d for the information chip 106, the barcode portion of the barcode / store name display member 107, and the store name display portion. Is provided. As shown by the hatched lines in FIG. 1, the second cover 105 is set so that all areas except the transparent windows 105a, 105b, 105c, and 105d are set as the second area. A person who wants to cut around the prize 103 does not notice the presence of the first cover 104 and cannot easily cut around the prize 103. Even if the position of the first cover 104 is known by several attempts and the second cover 105 on the first cover 104 is removed, the first cover fits into the first recess 110a and the surface of the main body 1 is removed. Therefore, it is difficult to remove the first cover 104 and remove it cleanly without damaging the prize without breaking the card body 1 by bending or the like.

  FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view of a state in which the connection material 102 is placed in the first recess 110a, the prize 103 is placed in the second recess 110b, and the first cover 104 is put on the step 103a of the prize 103 and the connection material 102. is there. For the purpose of explaining the positional relationship, the size of each part in this figure is different from the actual one. As shown in the drawing, the height t5 of the step 103a of the prize 103 is set to be higher than the height t4 of the first recess 110a of the main body. When the cutter blade is pressed onto the first cover 104 by interposing the buffering connecting material 102 in the gap caused by the height difference, the cover 104 is bent and the edge of the first cover 104 is bent. Go into the back. As a result, it becomes difficult to insert the cutter blade between the first recess 110 a and the first cover 104. In order to take out the prize cleanly, an operation such as bending and breaking the card body 1 is necessary, and illegal use of the prize card after taking out the prize can be effectively prevented.

  The effect becomes more prominent as the value of the depth t2 of the first recess 110a increases. However, the depth t <b> 2 should not be deeper than the end of the bent first cover 104. In this case, the first cover 104 can be removed by lifting the bent end of the first cover 104 with the tip of the cutter blade or another rod-like member.

  The present invention relates to a prize card used in amusement facilities such as a pachinko machine, a slot machine, etc., and in particular, it is illegal to give a prize card having a flat monetary value such as a gold coin or a pendant top and take out the prize. It can be used for a gift card that needs to be prevented from being used.
