In this state, the second case body 42 is moved. The substrate box 34 moves away from the first case body 41 by moving in the separation direction (the direction indicated by the arrow D in FIG. 4) toward the back direction of the substrate box 34. Therefore, the second case body 42 moves in the overlapping direction A of the substrate box 34 and then slides in the engagement direction B to be engaged with the first case body 41. On the other hand, if the first case body 41 slides in the disengagement direction C from the engaged state with the first case body 41 and then moves in the separation direction D, the first case body 41 is separated. As a result, the board box 34 can be opened and closed by sliding the second case body 42 along the division boundary by the engagement mechanism 43.

そして、上記遊技制御装置３２を、レーザーカッター等を用いてかしめ機構４７を不正に切断しようとすると、次のようになる。まず、不正行為者が不正行為を発覚されないように、封止体５７と封止受部５６(かしめ機構)の接合面で切断しようとしても、接合面を基板ボックス３４の厚さ方向（重合方向Ａまたは離間方向Ｄに沿う方向）に対して高低差を有した曲面により構成したため、接合面に沿ってレーザーカッター等で不正に切断することが困難であり、切断に時間がかかる。このため、不正の発生を抑制することができる。また、接合面に沿わずに切断した場合には、切断線を封止部５５の外部から確認することができるので、容易に不正切断を発見することができる。さらに、接合面と交差するように切断した場合、例えば、図１６（ｂ）に示す破線で切断した場合には、図１６（ａ）、１６（ｂ）に示すように、封止部５５の一部が欠け落ちるため、容易に不正切断を発見することができる。
Then, when the game control device 32 tries to cut the caulking mechanism 47 illegally using a laser cutter or the like, the following is obtained. First, even if an attempt is made to cut at the joint surface between the sealing body 57 and the sealing receiving portion 56 (caulking mechanism) so that the fraudster is not detected, the joint surface is cut in the thickness direction of the substrate box 34 (overlapping direction). Since it is configured by a curved surface having a height difference with respect to (A or the direction along the separation direction D), it is difficult to illegally cut along the joining surface with a laser cutter or the like, and it takes time to cut. For this reason, the occurrence of fraud can be suppressed. In addition, when cutting without being along the joint surface, the cutting line can be confirmed from the outside of the sealing portion 55, so that unauthorized cutting can be easily found. Furthermore, when cut so as to intersect the joint surface, for example, when cut along the broken line shown in FIG. 16B, as shown in FIGS. 16A and 16B, the sealing portion 55 Since some parts are lost, unauthorized cutting can be easily found.
ところで、封止部５５の接合面の形状は、上記実施形態で説明した断面形状が放物線となる曲面に限定されるものではなく、曲率Ｒが、一定な曲面でも良いし、曲面意外でも良い。例えば、他の実施例として、図１０〜図１２に、第２〜第４実施形態の封止体５７および封止受部５６を示す。
By the way, the shape of the joint surface of the sealing portion 55 is not limited to a curved surface in which the cross-sectional shape described in the above embodiment is a parabola, and the curvature R may be a constant curved surface or a curved surface unexpected. For example, as another example, FIGS. 10 to 12 show a sealing body 57 and a sealing receiving portion 56 of the second to fourth embodiments.

The thickness of the side wall 56c 'does not enter the inside of the sealing tool insertion port 57a' when the 57 'and the sealing receiving portion 56' are joined, and the upper surface of the side wall 56c 'is the same as the upper surface of the sealing body 57'. It is formed to have a height. Further, inside the sealing receiving portion 56 ', the diameter is such that a sealing tool 54 such as a screw can be screwed. The opening is opened on the upper surface of the sealing receiving portion main body 56b' and the lower surface of the sealing receiving portion main body 56b 'is opened. A sealing member fixing receiving portion 56a 'having a concave cross section is opened.

'(Side wall 56c') covers the periphery of the sealing body 57 '. 14 shows the sealing portion 55 located on the left side of the board box 34 when viewed from the back side of the game board 5, but in the case of the sealing portion 55 located on the right side, the lower surface of the sealing body 57 ′. By surrounding the side wall 56c ′ in the same manner on the side, the periphery of the sealing receiving portion 56 ′ can be covered. In short, the side wall 56c ′ is erected on the sealing body 57 ′ or the sealing receiving part 56 ′ so that one of the sealing body 57 ′ and the sealing receiving part 56 ′ covers the periphery of the other member. To be configured. Moreover, since the assembly method of the game control apparatus 32 provided with the crimping mechanism 47 of 6th Embodiment is the same as that of 1st Embodiment, description is abbreviate | omitted.
第６実施形態の場合は、不正行為者が不正行為を発覚されないように、封止体５７′と封止受部５６′(かしめ機構)の接合面で切断しようとしても、封止体５７′および封止受部５６′のうち、一方の部材で他方の部材の基板ボックス３４側以外の面を覆っており、基板ボックス３４の左側面（右側面）から見て接合面が全く見えないため、接合面に合わせて切断することができない。このため、封止部５５の側面を切断すれば、必ず切断線が残るので、容易に不正切断を発見することができる。
In the case of the sixth embodiment, even if it is attempted to cut at the joint surface between the sealing body 57 'and the sealing receiving portion 56' (caulking mechanism) so that the fraudster is not detected, the sealing body 57 ' In addition, one of the sealing receiving portions 56 ′ covers the surface of the other member other than the substrate box 34 side, and the joining surface is not seen at all when viewed from the left side surface (right side surface) of the substrate box 34. Can not be cut to fit the joint surface. For this reason, if the side surface of the sealing portion 55 is cut, a cutting line always remains, so that unauthorized cutting can be easily found.
さらに、上記実施形態に限らず、封止部５５に第２ケース体４２の係合方向とは逆方向（係合解除方向Ｃ方向）にスライドすることを規制する係合機能を持たせることもできる。例えば、第７実施形態の封止体５７″および封止受部５６″を図１５に示す。この場合も、第１実施形態と同様に、封止体５７″と封止受部５６″は、固着状態において、接合する接合面が、基板ボックス３４の厚さ方向に対して高低差を有し、かつ高低差が封止体５７″および封止受部５６″の側面に露出する面により構成されている。詳しくは、封止部５５は、基板ボックス３４の第１ケース体４１に突設した封止受部ブラケット５９に設けられ、中心線Ｌが重合方向Ａまたは離間方向Ｄに沿う円筒状に形成した封止受部５６″と、第２ケース体４２に突設した封止体ブラケット６０に設けられ、同じく中心線Ｌが重合方向Ａまたは離間方向Ｄに沿う円筒状に形成し、封止受部５６″と外径を同じとした円筒状の封止体５７″とから構成されている。そして、封止受部５６″の上面（封止体５７″との接合面）は水平な平面を有し、該平面の一側端部かつ封止体５７″と封止受部５６″を接合した状態で目視可能な箇所において、平面より斜め上方に向けて突起部５６ｂ″（高低差ΔＨ）を設けている。より詳しくは、突起部５６ｂ″は、封止受部５６″の上面から第２ケース体４２を係合する時のスライド進行方向（図１５（ａ）の矢印方向）に向かって斜め上方に延出し、上端から封止受部５６″の上面へ向けて急峻な段差を設け、外面が封止受部５６″の側面と一致するように形成し、封止体５７″と封止受部５６″を接合したときに、封止具挿入口５７ａ″の内部に侵入しない程度の厚さ、かつ封止体５７″および封止受部５６″が変形して後述する突起部受部５７ｃ″と係合可能な高さに形成されている。また、封止受部５６″の内部には、ねじ等の封止具５４が螺合可能な径であり、封止受部５６″上面に開口し封止受部５６″下面に開口しない断面凹状の封止具固着受部５６ａ″を開設している。封止体５７″は、封止受部５６″と係合（接合）可能となるように水平な平面状の下面端部に突起部５６ｂ″に沿った形状（相補形状）の突起部受部５７ｃ″が形成され、内部の上面側に封止具５４が挿入可能な封止具挿入口５７ａ″が円筒状に開設され、封止具挿入口５７ａ″に下面側で連通するように、封止具挿入口５７ａ″の径よりも小さく、かつ封止具５４が螺合しない程度の大きさで封止具貫通口５７ｂ″が開設されている。そして、封止体５７″をスライドさせて封止受部５６″と接合すれば、封止体５７″および封止受部５６″が変形して突起部５６ｂ″が突起部受部５７ｃ″内に嵌合すると共に封止体５７″と封止受部５６″が係合し、また、封止具固着受部５６ａ″と封止具貫通口５７ｂ″が軸を同じくして連通する。なお、封止体５７″と封止受部５６″が係合する以外は、第７実施形態のかしめ機構４７を備えた遊技制御装置３２の組み立て方法は、第１実施形態と同様であるため、説明は省略する。
Further, not limited to the above embodiment, the sealing portion 55 may have an engagement function for restricting sliding in the direction opposite to the engagement direction of the second case body 42 (disengagement direction C direction). it can. For example, the sealing body 57 ″ and the sealing receiving portion 56 ″ of the seventh embodiment are shown in FIG. Also in this case, similarly to the first embodiment, the sealing surface of the sealing body 57 ″ and the sealing receiving portion 56 ″ have a difference in height with respect to the thickness direction of the substrate box 34 in the fixed state. In addition, the height difference is constituted by the surfaces exposed on the side surfaces of the sealing body 57 ″ and the sealing receiving portion 56 ″. Specifically, the sealing portion 55 is provided in a sealing receiving bracket 59 projecting from the first case body 41 of the substrate box 34, and the center line L is formed in a cylindrical shape along the polymerization direction A or the separation direction D. The sealing receiving portion 56 ″ and the sealing body bracket 60 protruding from the second case body 42 are formed in a cylindrical shape with the center line L along the overlapping direction A or the separating direction D, and the sealing receiving portion 56 ″ and a cylindrical sealing body 57 ″ having the same outer diameter. The upper surface of the sealing receiving portion 56 ″ (joint surface with the sealing body 57 ″) is a horizontal flat surface. A projection 56b ″ (difference in height ΔH) obliquely above the plane at one side end portion of the plane that is visible when the sealing body 57 ″ and the sealing receiving portion 56 ″ are joined. Is provided. More specifically, the protrusion 56b ″ extends obliquely upward from the upper surface of the sealing receiving portion 56 ″ toward the sliding direction (the arrow direction in FIG. 15A) when engaging the second case body 42. And a steep step is provided from the upper end toward the upper surface of the sealing receiving portion 56 ″, and the outer surface is formed to coincide with the side surface of the sealing receiving portion 56 ″, and the sealing body 57 ″ and the sealing receiving portion 56 are formed. And a projection receiving portion 57c "to be described later by deforming the sealing body 57" and the sealing receiving portion 56 "so as not to enter the inside of the sealing member insertion opening 57a". It is formed at a height that can be engaged. Further, the inside of the seal receiving portion 56 ″ has a diameter capable of screwing a sealing tool 54 such as a screw, and has a cross section that opens on the upper surface of the seal receiving portion 56 ″ and does not open on the lower surface of the seal receiving portion 56 ″. A concave sealing member fixing receiving portion 56a ″ is opened. The sealing body 57 ″ is a projection receiving portion having a shape (complementary shape) along the protruding portion 56b ″ at the lower end of the horizontal flat surface so that the sealing receiving portion 56 ″ can be engaged (joined) with the sealing receiving portion 56 ″. 57c ″ is formed, and a sealing member insertion port 57a ″ into which the sealing member 54 can be inserted is formed in a cylindrical shape on the upper surface side of the inside, and sealed so as to communicate with the sealing member insertion port 57a ″ on the lower surface side. The sealing tool through-hole 57b ″ is opened with a diameter smaller than the diameter of the stopper insertion port 57a ″ and a size that prevents the sealing tool 54 from being screwed. Then, when the sealing body 57 ″ is slid and joined to the sealing receiving portion 56 ″, the sealing body 57 ″ and the sealing receiving portion 56 ″ are deformed so that the protruding portion 56b ″ is in the protruding portion receiving portion 57c ″. The sealing body 57 "and the sealing receiving part 56" are engaged with each other, and the sealing tool fixing receiving part 56a "and the sealing tool through-hole 57b" communicate with each other with the same axis. The assembly method of the game control device 32 provided with the caulking mechanism 47 of the seventh embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment except that the sealing body 57 ″ and the sealing receiving portion 56 ″ are engaged. The description is omitted.
また、第７実施形態の場合も、不正行為者が不正行為を発覚されないように、封止体５７″と封止受部５６″(かしめ機構)の接合面で切断しようとしても、接合面に突起部５６ｂ″を形成しているため、突起部５６ｂ″の形状に沿ってレーザーカッター等で不正に切断することが困難であり、切断に時間がかかる。このため、不正の発生を抑制することができる。また、接合面に沿わずに切断した場合には、切断線を封止部５５の外部から確認することができるので、容易に不正切断を発見することができる。さらに、突起部５６ｂ″を無視して接合面を水平に切断した場合は、図２０に示すように、突起部５６ｂ″が欠け落ちるため、容易に不正切断を発見することができる。そして、接合面に上記のような突起部５６ｂ″を設けたので、封止体５７″と封止受部５６″が係合して、第２ケース体４２が係合解除方向Ｃ方向にスライドすることを防ぐことができる。
Also in the case of the seventh embodiment, even if an unauthorized person tries to cut at the joint surface between the sealing body 57 ″ and the seal receiving portion 56 ″ (caulking mechanism) so that the cheating person is not detected cheating, the joint surface Since the protruding portion 56b ″ is formed, it is difficult to illegally cut along the shape of the protruding portion 56b ″ with a laser cutter or the like, which takes time. For this reason, the occurrence of fraud can be suppressed. In addition, when cutting without being along the joint surface, the cutting line can be confirmed from the outside of the sealing portion 55, so that unauthorized cutting can be easily found. Further, when the joining surface is cut horizontally while ignoring the protruding portion 56b ″, the protruding portion 56b ″ is lost as shown in FIG. Further, since the protruding portion 56b ″ as described above is provided on the joint surface, the sealing body 57 ″ and the sealing receiving portion 56 ″ are engaged, and the second case body 42 slides in the disengagement direction C direction. Can be prevented.
ところで、上記第１〜第７実施形態の封止部５５に限らず、各実施形態の全てもしくは一部の特徴を組み合わせた接合面を有する封止部５５としてもよい。例えば、封止体および封止受部のうち、一方の部材で他方の部材の一部を覆うように封止体または封止受部に側壁５６ｃ′を立設し、その側壁５６ｃ′で覆われていない接合面に曲面と段差を組み合わせた面を設け、その端部に突起部５６ｂ″を設けた接合面を有する封止部５５としてもよい。さらには、より複雑な形状の接合面を有する封止部とすることもできる。要は、封止部５５を構成する封止体と封止受部とが接合している接合面を、封止部５５における上下方向（基板ボックス３４の厚さ方向）に対して高低差を有し、かつ前記接合面の高低差が封止体および／または封止受部の側面に露出する面により構成すればよい。このようにすることで、不正行為者が不正行為を発覚されないように、封止体と封止受部(かしめ機構)の接合面で切断しようとしても、接合面が水平な直線ではないため、接合面に沿ってレーザーカッター等で不正に切断することが困難であり、切断に時間がかかる。このため、不正の発生を抑制することができる。また、接合面に沿わずに切断した場合には、切断線を封止部５５の外部から確認することができるので、容易に不正切断を発見することができる。さらに、接合面と交差するように切断した場合、封止部５５の一部が欠け落ちるため、容易に不正切断を発見することができる。
By the way, it is good also as the sealing part 55 which has not only the sealing part 55 of the said 1st-7th embodiment but the joint surface which combined all or one part characteristic of each embodiment. For example, the side wall 56c ′ is erected on the sealing body or the sealing receiving portion so that one member covers a part of the other member of the sealing body and the sealing receiving portion, and is covered with the side wall 56c ′. It is good also as the sealing part 55 which has the joint surface which provided the surface which combined the curved surface and the level | step difference in the unjoined joint surface, and provided the projection part 56b '' in the edge part. The point is that the joint surface where the sealing body constituting the sealing portion 55 and the sealing receiving portion are joined is defined by the vertical direction of the sealing portion 55 (of the substrate box 34). It may be configured by a surface having a height difference with respect to the thickness direction) and a surface where the height difference of the joint surface is exposed to the side surface of the sealing body and / or the sealing receiving portion. Joining the sealing body and the sealing receiving part (caulking mechanism) so that the fraudster is not detected Even if it is attempted to cut with a laser beam, the joining surface is not a horizontal straight line, so it is difficult to make an unauthorized cutting along the joining surface with a laser cutter or the like, and it takes a long time to cut. In addition, when cutting without being along the joining surface, the cutting line can be confirmed from the outside of the sealing portion 55, so that unauthorized cutting can be easily found. When the cutting is performed so as to intersect, a part of the sealing portion 55 is lost, so that unauthorized cutting can be easily found.
ここで、封止体５７および封止受部５６にそれぞれ異なる色を着色することもできる。例えば、封止体５７を青色で着色した半透明な樹脂等で作成し、封止受部５６を赤色で着色した半透明な樹脂等で作成する。このようにしておけば、不正切断箇所から封止体５７と封止受部５６のどちらかが欠け落ちた場合、欠け落ちた切断片を発見しやすく、不正切断箇所が発見し難くなったとしても、容易に不正切断を発見することができる。また、欠け落ちた切断片の色で封止体５７と封止受部５６のどちらが欠けたのかを識別できるので、不正切断箇所をある程度予測でき、不正切断箇所が発見しやすくなる。
Here, the sealing body 57 and the sealing receiving portion 56 may be colored with different colors. For example, the sealing body 57 is made of a translucent resin colored in blue, and the sealing receiving portion 56 is made of a translucent resin colored in red. In this way, if either the sealing body 57 or the sealing receiving portion 56 is chipped from the illegally cut portion, it is easy to find the cut piece that has been dropped and it is difficult to find the illegally cut portion. Even unauthorized disconnects can be easily found. Further, since it is possible to identify which one of the sealing body 57 and the sealing receiving portion 56 is chipped by the color of the cut piece that has been cut off, it is possible to predict the unauthorized cutting part to some extent, and to easily find the illegal cutting part.
なお、上記実施形態のかしめ機構４７では、４つ全ての封止部５５をそれぞれ封止具５４により固着し、固着状態を解除不能としたが、これに限らず、固着しない封止部５５を設けてもよい。例えば、基板ボックス３４のうち遊技盤５の裏側から見て右上と左下に位置する２つの封止部５５だけを固着する。このとき、固着しない封止部５５（基板ボックス３４のうち遊技盤５の裏側から見て右下と左上に位置する封止部５５）は、封止具５４を完全に締めず封止部５５内に留まる状態（仮止め状態）としておく。このようにすることで、固着した封止具５４を破壊して基板ボックス３４を一度開封し、制御基板３５に不具合や不正等が無いかチェックした後、仮止め状態とした封止部５５内の封止具５４を締め込むことで、再び基板ボックス３４を固着状態にすることができる。より詳しくは、固着されている封止部５５を接続している封止体ブラケット６０および封止受部ブラケット５９だけを、ニッパー等の工具で切断することによって、固着されている封止部５５のみを切除する。次に、保護カバー部材３７を第２ケース体４２から外し、切除されていない封止部５５に仮止めされている封止具５４を緩め、封止体５７と封止受部５６の接合面より上部に移動させた後、第２ケース体４２を、第１ケース体４１から係合解除方向Ｃへスライドし、さらに離間方向Ｄへ移動すれば、第１ケース体４１から離間することで基板ボックス３４を開放する。そして、第２ケース体４２から制御基板３５を取り外し、目視等により不正部品が搭載されていないか否か等のチェックを行い、不具合や不正等が無ければ、再び組み立てる。
In the caulking mechanism 47 of the above-described embodiment, all the four sealing portions 55 are fixed by the sealing tools 54, respectively, so that the fixed state cannot be released. It may be provided. For example, only the two sealing portions 55 located on the upper right and lower left as viewed from the back side of the game board 5 in the board box 34 are fixed. At this time, the sealing portion 55 that does not adhere (the sealing portion 55 located in the lower right and upper left as viewed from the back side of the game board 5 in the board box 34) does not completely tighten the sealing tool 54, but the sealing portion 55. The state stays inside (temporarily fixed state). In this way, the sealed sealing member 54 is broken, the substrate box 34 is opened once, and the control substrate 35 is checked for defects, frauds, etc., and then temporarily sealed. By tightening the sealing member 54, the substrate box 34 can be fixed again. More specifically, only the sealing body bracket 60 and the sealing receiving portion bracket 59 connected to the fixed sealing portion 55 are cut with a tool such as a nipper, thereby fixing the fixed sealing portion 55. Only excise. Next, the protective cover member 37 is removed from the second case body 42, the sealing tool 54 temporarily fixed to the sealing portion 55 that has not been cut is loosened, and the joint surface between the sealing body 57 and the sealing receiving portion 56 is loosened. After being moved further upward, the second case body 42 is slid from the first case body 41 in the disengagement direction C, and further moved in the separation direction D. Box 34 is opened. Then, the control board 35 is removed from the second case body 42, and it is checked whether or not unauthorized parts are mounted by visual inspection or the like. If there is no malfunction or fraud, reassembly is performed.
遊技制御装置３２を再び組み立てるには、最初に組み立てた時と同様に、第１ケース体４１と第２ケース体４２とを離間した状態で、第２ケース体４２の内側に制御基板３５を止着して配線コネクタ３５ｂをコネクタ開口４２ａに臨ませる。次に、制御基板３５が取り付けられた第２ケース体４２を制御基板３５と第１ケース体４１の内側とが対向する姿勢に設定し、第２ケース体４２を重合方向Ａに沿って移動して第１ケース体４１へ重合させると共に、係合片５１を嵌脱部５２へ通す。そして、第２ケース体４２を係合方向Ｂへスライドして係合片５１を係合溝部５０へ係合させて第１ケース体４１と第２ケース体４２とを係合状態（閉じた状態）にする。すると、基板ボックス３４の左右両側の端部で切除されていない封止体５７と封止受部５６がそれぞれ重合する。この状態で、封止具５４をそれぞれ封止具固着受部へ挿通して、締め込み、封止体５７と封止受部５６を固着し、且つ固着状態を解除不能とすると共に、保護カバー部材３７を第２ケース部材に固着すれば、遊技制御装置３２を組み立てることができる。このように、全ての封止部５５を封止せず、一部の封止部５５だけを封止することによって、基板ボックス３４を開封した後、再び組み立てができる。
In order to reassemble the game control device 32, the control board 35 is fixed to the inside of the second case body 42 with the first case body 41 and the second case body 42 separated from each other as in the first assembly. Attach the wiring connector 35b to the connector opening 42a. Next, the second case body 42 to which the control board 35 is attached is set to a posture in which the control board 35 and the inside of the first case body 41 face each other, and the second case body 42 is moved along the overlapping direction A. The first case body 41 is superposed and the engagement piece 51 is passed through the fitting / removal portion 52. Then, the second case body 42 is slid in the engagement direction B and the engagement piece 51 is engaged with the engagement groove portion 50 so that the first case body 41 and the second case body 42 are engaged (closed state). ). Then, the sealing body 57 and the sealing receiving portion 56 that are not cut off at the left and right ends of the substrate box 34 are superposed. In this state, the sealing tool 54 is inserted into the sealing tool fixing receiving portion and tightened, the sealing body 57 and the sealing receiving portion 56 are fixed, and the fixing state cannot be released. If the member 37 is fixed to the second case member, the game control device 32 can be assembled. Thus, by sealing only a part of the sealing portions 55 without sealing all the sealing portions 55, the substrate box 34 can be opened and then reassembled.
また、上記実施形態のかしめ機構４７では、基板ボックス３４の左右両側の端部にそれぞれ２つずつ、合計４つの封止部５５を設けたが、封止部５５の数は４つに限らず、また、上下両側の端部に封止部５５を設けてもよい。要は、基板ボックス３４のうち少なくとも１つ以上の封止部５５を設けておけばよく、さらに、基板ボックス３４の端部のうち少なくとも一側の端部に封止部５５を設けておけばよい。また、複数の封止部５５を設けた場合には、個々の封止部５５の接合面は、それぞれ別個の形状にしてもよい。このようにしておけば、複数の封止部５５を接合面に沿ってレーザーカッター等で不正に切断するときに、個々の封止具５４によって切断する操作を変えなければいけないので、より時間をかけさせることができ、不正の発生を抑制することができる。
Further, in the caulking mechanism 47 of the above embodiment, a total of four sealing portions 55 are provided at each of the left and right end portions of the substrate box 34, but the number of sealing portions 55 is not limited to four. Moreover, you may provide the sealing part 55 in the edge part of the up-and-down both sides. In short, it is only necessary to provide at least one or more sealing portions 55 in the substrate box 34, and furthermore, if sealing portions 55 are provided at at least one end of the end portions of the substrate box 34. Good. Moreover, when the some sealing part 55 is provided, you may make the joining surface of each sealing part 55 into a separate shape, respectively. By doing so, when the plurality of sealing portions 55 are illegally cut along the bonding surface with a laser cutter or the like, the operation of cutting with the individual sealing tools 54 must be changed, so more time is required. The occurrence of fraud can be suppressed.
さらに、上記実施形態の遊技制御装置３２では、基板ボックス３４に係合機構４３を備え、第２ケース体４２をスライドさせて第１ケース体４１と重合すると共に封止体５７をスライドさせて封止受部５６に接合したが、本発明はこれに限定されない。例えば、係合機構４３を用いずに、第２ケース体４２を重合方向Ａに沿って移動して第１ケース体４１へ重合させると共に封止体５７と封止受部５６を接合させ、封止具５４を用いて封止体５７と封止受部５６を固着してもよいし、第１ケース体４１または第２ケース体４２に鉤状の係合機構４３を備え、第２ケース体４２を重合方向Ａに沿って移動して鉤状の係合機構４３によって第１ケース体４１と第２ケース体４２を所定の位置で係合し、その後、封止具５４を用いて封止体５７と封止受部５６を固着してもよい。これらの場合には、第２ケース体４２をスライドする必要が無いため、上記実施形態のようなスライド方向による制約（例えば、第１実施形態において基板ボックス３４の上下方向に対して垂直な面における断面において水平な直線となるような接合面にすること）が無くなり、より複雑な接合面にすることができる。
Further, in the game control device 32 of the above embodiment, the board box 34 is provided with the engagement mechanism 43, the second case body 42 is slid to overlap the first case body 41, and the sealing body 57 is slid to be sealed. Although it joined to the stop part 56, this invention is not limited to this. For example, without using the engagement mechanism 43, the second case body 42 is moved along the superposition direction A to be superposed on the first case body 41, and the sealing body 57 and the sealing receiving portion 56 are joined to seal the sealing. The sealing body 57 and the sealing receiving portion 56 may be fixed using the stopper 54, or the first case body 41 or the second case body 42 is provided with a hook-like engagement mechanism 43, and the second case body 42 is moved along the superposition direction A, and the first case body 41 and the second case body 42 are engaged at a predetermined position by the hook-shaped engagement mechanism 43, and then sealed using the sealing tool 54. The body 57 and the sealing receiving portion 56 may be fixed. In these cases, since it is not necessary to slide the second case body 42, there are restrictions due to the sliding direction as in the above embodiment (for example, in a plane perpendicular to the vertical direction of the substrate box 34 in the first embodiment). It is possible to make the joint surface more complex, since the joint surface becomes a horizontal straight line in the cross section.
また、上記実施形態では、代表的な遊技機であるパチンコ遊技機１を例にして説明したが、本発明はこれに限らず、遊技制御実行用の電子部品３５ａが実装された制御基板３５と、該制御基板３５を内部に収納するための基板ボックス３４と、を備え、第１ケース体４１と第２ケース体４２を封止するためのかしめ機構４７を備える遊技機であればどのような遊技機でもよい。例えば、封入球式パチンコ機、アレンジボール式遊技機、雀球式遊技機等の遊技機であってもよい。
