Therefore, when the double caulking pin 193 is inserted into the separate insertion hole 191 and locked, the main controller 70 is fixed to the support frame 120, and the case upper 71 shown in FIG. The upper and lower two connecting portions of the portion 192 are cut to separate the separate sealed portion 192 from the case top 71, and the separated separate sealed portion 192 is rotated along the pin direction together with the double caulking pin 193. The main controller 70 is rotated unless the double caulking pin 193 is unlocked to the locking hole 128 and the separated separately sealed portion 192 is removed together with the double caulking pin 193. It cannot be extracted from the support frame 120.

  In place of the double caulking pin 193, the main controller 70 may be fixed to the support frame 120 by using a break screw or a one-way screw.

  Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 7, the main control device 70 includes a notification display unit 300 that notifies the disconnection when the connecting portion 181 of the lower right sealing member 140 is cut.

  Here, the detailed configuration and the like of the notification display unit 300 will be described with reference to FIGS.

  15 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line CC of FIG. 7 of the main controller 70 in a state where the connecting portion 181 of the sealing member 140 is not cut. 16 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line CC of FIG. 7 of the main controller 70 in a state where the connecting portion 181 of the sealing member 140 is cut. FIG. 17A is a partial front view showing a position of the lower right sealing member 140 of the main control device 70 in a state before the connection portion 181 is cut, and FIG. 17B is a view after the connection portion 181 is cut. It is a partial front view which shows the location of the sealing member 140 of a state.

  First, as shown in FIG. 7, the connecting portion 181 of the sealing member 140 is used to separate the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 from the sealing member 140 when releasing the sealing by the sealing member 140. A cut portion 182 to be cut is provided.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the main controller 70 includes an LED 310 (see FIG. 6) mounted on the main control board 73, and light from the LED 310 is incident from one end side (incident end side 321) and the other end side. And an optical fiber 320 as an optical transmission member arranged on the case 71 and emitting from (exit end side 322).

  The optical fiber 320 is, for example, a plastic optical fiber. As shown in FIGS. 7 and 9, the curled portion 323 (winding portion) curled to give stretchability and the curled portion 323 are compared. A linear portion 324 that is linear. The optical fiber 320 has a flexible structure that can be deformed such that the linear portion 324 is bent by using plastic as the core material.

  The arrangement of the optical fiber 320 having the curled portion 323 and the LED 310 is schematically shown in FIGS. 7 and 9 and more specifically shown in FIGS.

  As shown in FIG. 15, the right side sealing member 140 of the case upper 71 shown in FIG. 7 has an insertion hole 77 extending from the inside of the case upper 71 to the middle of the sealing member 140 through the connecting portion 181. Has been.

  As shown in FIGS. 15 and 17A, the optical fiber 320 has an emission end side 322 inserted into the insertion hole 77 of the case upper 71 to notify the disconnection of the connecting portion 181. That is, the optical fiber 320 is disposed inside the sealing member 140 such that the emission end side 322 passes through the inside of the connecting portion 181.

  The emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 is bonded and fixed to the back side of the insertion hole 77 of the upper case 71 by, for example, an adhesive 340. The adhesive 340 may be inserted into the inner side of the insertion hole 77 and then the output end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 may be inserted and fixed. Alternatively, the adhesive 340 may be attached to the output end side 322 of the optical fiber 320. The optical fiber 320 may be inserted and fixed to the back side of the insertion hole 77. Moreover, since the adhesive agent 340 is located in the light emission location in the output end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 like the present Example 1, the light transmissive adhesive agent is employ | adopted. In the case where a portion other than the light emitting portion on the emission end side 322 is adhered to the insertion hole 77 with the adhesive 340, a non-permeable adhesive may be employed.

  In addition, the incident end side 321 of the optical fiber 320 is inserted into a through hole 351 of a support member 350 provided inside the case upper 71 so as to face and approach the LED 310 mounted on the main control board 73. The optical fiber 320 in the inserted state is bonded and fixed to the support member 350 with an adhesive 340, for example. Specifically, a recess receiving portion 352 into which the adhesive 340 is inserted is formed at the tip side portion of the support member 350, and the incident end side 321 of the optical fiber 320 is inserted into the through hole 351 of the support member 350. Thus, the adhesive 340 is inserted into the recess receiving portion 352, and the incident end side 321 of the optical fiber 320 is bonded and fixed to the support member 350.

  In the first embodiment, the LED 310 of the main control board 73 and the incident end side 321 of the optical fiber 320 are disposed close to each other, but the LED 310 of the main control board 73 and the incident end side 321 of the optical fiber 320 are arranged. An unillustrated light guide member (for example, a light guide component or an optical lens having an outer peripheral portion other than the entrance surface and the exit surface as a light shielding surface) is provided, and light emitted from the LED 310 is guided to the light. The member may be guided to the incident end side 321 of the optical fiber 320 to be incident.

  As shown in FIG. 15, the optical fiber 320 includes a curl portion 323 having, for example, five turns, between the incident end side 321 and the emission end side 322. As shown in FIG. 15, in a state where both ends of the optical fiber 320 are bonded and fixed with an adhesive 340, the curled portion 323 is stretched in the length direction of the optical fiber 320 (stretched state).

  The curled portion 323 of the optical fiber 320 is for energizing the cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320 that is cut along with the cut of the cut portion 182 so as to be drawn inward from the cut surface of the cut portion 182. It is.

  The main control board 73 is mounted with a secondary battery (not shown) for causing the LED 310 (see FIGS. 6 and 15) to emit light. Since the secondary battery (not shown) of the main control board 73 is charged by using a part of the electric power supplied from the slot machine 10 to the main control board 73 in the power-on state of the slot machine 10, the slot machine Even in the power-off state of 10, the LED 310 (see FIGS. 6 and 15) of the main control board 73 can be made to emit light with power from a secondary battery (not shown). Further, in the power-on state of the slot machine 10, the LED 310 (see FIGS. 6 and 15) is caused to emit light by the power supplied to the main control board 73 or the power from the secondary battery (not shown) of the main control board 73. You can also. Although a secondary battery is preferred, a primary battery may be adopted.

  The light from the LED 310 is incident on the incident end side 321 of the optical fiber 320, passes through the inside of the optical fiber 320, and is emitted from the output end side 322 located inside the sealing member 140. That is, in a normal state where the cut site 182 is not cut, the sealing member 140 emits light emitted from the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 as shown in FIGS. 15 and 17A.

  Further, the light from the optical fiber 320 is incident on the cured resin 170 filled in the receiving recess 152 of the sealed portion 150 and cured, and at least a part of the cured resin 170 emits light. Further, when the light diffusing particles are included in the cured resin 170, the cured resin 170 can emit light uniformly.

  Further, when the cut portion 182 is cut, the curled portion 323 is contracted, so that the cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320 is drawn into the inside from the cut surface of the cut portion 182, as shown in FIGS. 16 and 17B. As shown, the cut end portion 320a of the drawn optical fiber 320 is positioned at the cut notification display portion 78 on the case 71, and light is emitted from the cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320, whereby the cut notification display portion 78 is displayed. Emits light. The cutting notification display portion 78 is marked with “cut” as shown in FIG. 17, and when the cut portion 182 is cut, “cut” is shown as shown in FIG. Since the light-emitting display of the notation portion is made, the operator can easily notice the light-emitting display, and the oversight that the connecting portion 181 of the sealing member 140 is cut is reduced.

  It should be noted that a light diffusion layer is provided in an inner peripheral portion of the insertion hole 77 on the case 71 located at the cutting notification display portion 78 (for example, a light diffusion paint is applied or a minute unevenness is formed. ), The light emitting area may be expanded to further attract the operator's attention. Moreover, you may apply a fluorescent paint to the said location.

  The above-mentioned case upper 71 corresponds to the first member in the present invention, a first case body described later, and the above-mentioned case lower 72 corresponds to the second member in the present invention, and a second case body described later. The sealing member 140 corresponds to the sealing means in the present invention, the above-described sealing member 140 corresponds to the sealing means in the present invention, and the above-described optical fiber 320 corresponds to a transmission member and an optical transmission member described later. The curled portion 323 corresponds to an urging means described later, the LED 310 described above corresponds to a light source described later, the substrate case 74 described above corresponds to a substrate storage case for a gaming machine described later, and the bottomed locking hole described above. 151 corresponds to a locking hole described later, the caulking pin 160 described above corresponds to a locking member described later, and the case locking portion 130 described above corresponds to a locking means described later.

  Here, a procedure for sealing the substrate case 74 of the first embodiment will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the main control board 73 is screwed to a predetermined place on the inner surface of the case upper 71.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the uppermost hook-shaped protrusion 131 on the upper case 71 is positioned between the upper reverse hook-shaped protrusion 132 and the second reverse hook-shaped protrusion 132 on the lower case 72. In this way, the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 are substantially aligned.

  Then, at least one of the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 is slid in the short direction to the length of the hook-shaped protrusion 131 to lock the hook-shaped protrusion 131 and the reverse hook-shaped protrusion 132. At the same time, the protruding portion 72e of the case lower 72 is accommodated in the accommodating portion 71e of the case upper 71, and the case upper 71 and the case lower 72 are completely aligned. Further, in this state, the three upper fitting protrusions 71 b on the upper surface side of the case upper 71 are fitted into the upper fitting holes 72 a at three positions on the upper surface side of the case lower 72 and the lower surface side of the case upper 71. Two fitting lower projections 72b on the lower surface side of the case lower 72 are fitted in the two lower fitting holes 71c.

  Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 6, the caulking pins 160 are respectively inserted and locked in the bottomed locking holes 151 in the sealed portions 150 at two places on the lower side of the substrate case 74. In this state, the sealing member 140, that is, the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked so that the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 cannot be slid in the short direction.

  Then, the pre-curing resin is filled in the portion of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 in the sealed portion 150, and the filled pre-curing resin is irradiated with ultraviolet rays and cured as shown in FIG.

  Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 6, the screw 75 is inserted into the screw hole 76 in the lower case 72 and fastened to the upper case 71. Thus, not only the sealing member 140 but also this screwing, the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 are fixed so as to prevent the sliding movement.

  Further, the substrate case 74 thus sealed, that is, the main controller 70 is attached to the mounting base 100 attached to the upper position inside the main body 11. Specifically, the main control device 70 is inserted from the upper side of the support frame 120 in a state where the support frame 120 is set in a forward posture with respect to the metal frame 110 of the mounting base 100. Attach to 120. In this mounted state, the lower support protrusion 71 d at the central portion on the lower surface side of the case upper 71 is fitted into the lower support hole 125 for support on the lower surface side of the support frame 120, and 4 on the upper surface side of the case lower 72. The upper support protrusions 126 on the upper surface side of the support frame body 120 are fitted into the support upper fitting holes 72 c at the locations, and the locking protrusions 72 d at the center of the rear upper surface of the case lower 72 are formed in the support frame body 120. It will be in the state latched by the hole 127 for latching of the upper center location.

  Subsequently, the double caulking pin 193 is inserted into another insertion hole 191 of another sealed portion 192 of the main controller 70 attached to the support frame 120, so that the double caulking pin 193 is supported by the support frame 120. The main control device 70 is fixed to the support frame 120. In other words, in this fixed state, the upper and lower two connecting portions of the case upper 71 shown in FIG. 6 are cut to separate the separate sealed portion 192 from the case upper 71, and the separated separate sealed portion 192 is separated. The double caulking pin 193 is rotated 90 degrees about its pin direction as the rotation axis to release the locking of the double caulking pin 193 to the locking hole 128, and the separated separate sealed portion 192 is double caulked. The main controller 70 cannot be extracted from the support frame 120 unless the pins 193 are removed.

  Finally, the support frame 120 to which the main controller 70 is mounted and fixed in this way is changed from the forward-facing posture state to the standing posture state, so that the support frame member 120 is locked to the metal frame body 110 in the standing posture. The main controller 70 is finally attached to the upper position inside the main body 11 as shown in FIG.

  As described above, according to the slot machine 10 of the first embodiment, the upper case 71, the lower case 72, and the sealing member 140 that seals the coupled state between the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 so as not to be released. And includes a connecting portion 181 for connecting the case upper 71 and the sealing member 140, and the connecting portion 181 separates the case upper 71 and the sealing member 140 when the sealing by the sealing member 140 is released. And an optical fiber 320 for notifying the cutting of the connecting portion 181 provided from the upper case 71 to the sealing member 140 so as to pass through at least the inside of the part to be cut 182. The cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320 cut along with the cut of the cut portion 182 is biased so as to be drawn inward from the cut surface of the cut portion 182. It includes a curl portion 323, a.

  Therefore, when the cut portion 182 of the connecting portion 181 is cut to release the coupling state between the case upper 71 and the case lower 72, the optical fiber 320 inside the cut portion 182 is also cut. By cutting the optical fiber 320, it is possible to notify the disconnection of the connecting portion 181. Further, since the cut end portion 320a of the cut optical fiber 320 is drawn inward from the cut surface of the cut target portion 182 by the curled portion 323, the cut end portion 320a of the cut optical fiber 320 can be accessed. It becomes difficult, and it is possible to reduce unauthorized reconnection of the cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320. As a result, it is possible to provide the slot machine 10 (game machine) that can reduce fraud.

  The optical fiber 320 is a light transmission member that receives light from the LED 310 from the incident end side 321 and emits the light from the emission end side 322 located inside the sealing member 140. In a normal state in which the optical fiber 320 is not cut, the sealing member 140 emits light emitted from the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320, and in a state after the cut portion 182 is cut, the cut end portion 320a of the drawn optical fiber 320 The display part 78 for notification of cutting on the case 71 where is located emits light.

  Therefore, in a normal state in which the part to be cut 182 is not cut, the sealing member 140 emits light by the light emitted from the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320. Therefore, the sealing member 140 can be watched by light emission. it can. Further, in the state after cutting of the cut portion 182, the cut end portion 320 a of the drawn optical fiber 320 is located at the cut notification display portion 78 on the case 71, and this cut notification display portion 78 emits light. Since the cutting notification display portion 78 different from the sealing member 140 is lit, it is possible to clearly notify the cutting of the connecting portion 181. Further, since the cut end portion 320a of the cut optical fiber 320 is drawn inward from the cut surface of the cut portion 182, it becomes difficult to access the cut end portion 320a. It is possible to reduce unauthorized reconnection.

  Further, in the first embodiment, in the state after the cut portion 182 is cut, the cut notification display portion 78 on the case 71 emits light. However, as shown in FIG. You may make it light-emit the cut location of the connection part 181 in which the cutting | disconnection end part 320a of this is located. 18 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line CC of FIG. 7 of the main controller 70 in a state where the cut portion of the connecting portion 181 emits light. In this case, in the state after cutting of the cut portion 182, the cut portion of the connecting portion 181 where the cut end portion 320 a of the drawn optical fiber 320 is located emits light, so that the cut portion of the connecting portion 181 is lit. As a result, the disconnection of the connecting portion 181 can be clearly notified. Further, since the cut end portion 320a of the cut optical fiber 320 is drawn inward from the cut surface of the cut portion 182, it becomes difficult to access the cut end portion 320a. It is possible to reduce unauthorized reconnection.

  Further, in a gaming machine including a board case 74 that houses a main control board 73 that controls a predetermined game related to the gaming machine, the board case 74 is a case upper 71 and a case that is combined with the case upper 71. The board case 74 includes a lower 72, and the board case 74 is attached to the main control board 73 at a predetermined position (for example, two places on the lower side in front view) on the case 71 to which the main control board 73 is attached. In addition, the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 are sealed so that the board case 74 cannot be opened, and the sealing member 140 includes the upper case 71 and the lower case. 72 and a sealed portion 150 having a bottomed locking hole 151 formed in communication with a predetermined location in a state where the fixed portion 72 and the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150 are inserted and locked. Insert A caulking pin 160 having a stopper 161 and a head 162 positioned on the rear end side of the insertion locking portion 161 and a caulking pin 160 inserted into the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150 are engaged. And a cured resin 170 filled and cured in the portion of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 in the sealed portion 150, and the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 includes the cured resin 170. Thus, the weakened portion 163 bonded to the sealed portion 150 is provided. Therefore, for example, when the cured resin 170 of the sealing member 140 is to be removed using an unauthorized thin member, the weakened portion 163 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 is destroyed along with the unauthorized removal of the cured resin 170. Since the fragile portion 163 is removed together with the removed cured resin 170, the fragile portion 163 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 can be used even if the caulking pin 160 is illegally reused. It can be seen that the substrate case 74 has been opened. As a result, the unsealing of the substrate case 74 attached to the slot machine 10 can be reduced, and the so-called two-in-one substrate case 74 can be made illegally (from the two substrate cases 74 to the intact case upper 71 and the case lower 72 And making one base case 74), it is possible to provide a slot machine (game machine) that can reduce fraud.

  Further, since the sealed portion 150 employs the bottomed locking hole 151, the back side of the sealed portion 150 (that is, the side where the bottomed locking hole 151 exists in the sealed portion 150 is defined. Access from the opposite side) can be disabled.

  In addition, the receiving concave portion 152 provided in the periphery of the bottom-side locking hole 151 at the entrance side of the sealed portion 150 has the caulking pin in a state where the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the hollow space. With the 160 heads 162 positioned, the dent space is filled with pre-curing resin and cured, so that the cured resin 170 is covered with the heads 162 positioned in the dent spaces of the receiving recesses 152. It is difficult to illegally remove the cured resin 170 in the hollow space, and if the cured resin 170 is to be removed using an unauthorized thin member, the caulking pin is accompanied by the unauthorized removal of the cured resin 170. Since the fragile portion 163 of the head portion 162 of 160 is broken and the fragile portion 163 is removed together with the removed cured resin 170, the caulking pin 160 from which the fragile portion 163 is removed can be reused illegally. By looking broken weak portion 163 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160, it can be seen that the board case 74 has been opened. As a result, a gaming machine that can reduce fraud can be provided.

  Further, since the fragile portions 163 are a plurality of extending portions 164 extending from the head 162 in a direction orthogonal to the insertion direction of the caulking pin 160, the surface area of the plurality of extending portions 164 is reduced. Therefore, the adhesive area between the head 162 and the cured resin 170 can be increased by that amount, and the adhesive force between the head 162 and the cured resin 170 is improved by the increased amount. If the member is used for removal, the extension part 164 of the plurality of extension parts 164 of the head part 162 of the caulking pin 160 is destroyed due to unauthorized removal of the cured resin 170, and the removal is performed. A part of the extended portion 164 can be removed together with the cured resin 170, and the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 can be removed even if the caulking pin 160 is illegally reused. Extension part 1 By looking at 4 of the damage, it can be seen that the board case 74 has been opened.

  Further, the sealed portion 150 is inserted into the projecting portion 72e by combining the projecting portion 72e provided on the lower case 72 with the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 provided on the upper case 71. The bottomed locking hole 151 has a through hole 72f formed through the protruding portion 72e in a direction perpendicular to the protruding direction, and the protruding portion 72e is inserted into the receiving portion 71e. An insertion hole 71f formed in communication with the housing portion 71e on one opening side of the through hole 72f and an insertion through hole 71g formed in communication with the housing portion 71e on the other opening side of the through hole 72f. It is configured. Therefore, since the boundary surface BL between the case upper 71 and the case lower 72 where the sealing member 140 exists is surrounded by the accommodating portion 71e, it is difficult to insert an unauthorized thin member into the boundary surface BL. It is possible to insert an unauthorized thin member into the boundary surface BL and make it difficult to separate the case upper 71 and the case lower 72 at a location where the sealing member 140 exists. In addition, even if an illegal thin member is inserted at the boundary between the case upper 71 and the case lower 72 other than the accommodating portion 71e, only the force is applied in the protruding direction of the protruding portion 72e, and the boundary surface BL is separated. That is, since no force is applied in the direction in which the caulking pin 160 is removed, even if an unauthorized thin member is forcibly inserted at the boundary between the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 other than the accommodating portion 71e, the sealing member 140 is sealed. Cannot be stopped. As a result, a gaming machine using the substrate case 74 that can reduce unauthorized opening can be provided.

  In addition, the case locking portion 130 of the board case 74 is configured such that the case upper 71 or the case lower is in a state where the case lower 72 is aligned with the attachment surface side of the main control board 73 on the case 71 to which the main control board 73 is attached. The upper case 71 and the lower case 72 are locked by sliding and moving at least one of 72 in a predetermined direction of the mating surface (in this embodiment, for example, the short direction of the substrate case 74). The sealing member 140 seals the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 that are locked by the case locking portion 130 so that they cannot be opened. Therefore, since the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 are sealed by the sealing member 140 so as not to be opened, it is possible to reduce unauthorized opening of the substrate case 74. Further, in this sealed state, the case upper portion 71 and the case lower portion 72 are slidably locked by the case locking portion 130, and the case upper portion 71 and the case lower portion 72 cannot be opened in the opposing direction perpendicular to the sliding direction. It is possible to reduce the unauthorized opening of the substrate case 74.

  Further, the case locking portion 130 of the substrate case 74 includes four hook-shaped protrusions 131 (in FIG. 6 and FIG. 9) indicated by broken lines arranged in parallel in the side direction at both locations on the short side of the case upper 71. And four reverse saddle-like shapes formed in the opposite direction to the hook-shaped protrusions 131 arranged in parallel in the side direction at both locations on the short side of the lower case 72). The protrusion 132 is provided, and at least one of the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 is slid to move the hook-like protrusion 131 and the reverse hook-like protrusion 132 so that the sealing member 140 can In the sealed state in which the case 71 and the case lower 72 are sealed so as not to be opened, a plurality of hook-like protrusions 131 and inverted hook-like protrusions arranged over a predetermined length on both sides of the case upper 71 or the case lower 72 It is slidably locked at the part 132 To insert a gap between the upper case 71 and the lower case 72, or to open the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 It can reduce, and it can reduce that the substrate case 74 is illegally formed or opened.

  Further, the sealing member 140 fixes the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 so as to suppress the sliding movement. Further, when the debonding-destroying portion 180 of the sealing member 140 is broken, the state of the case upper 71 and the case lower 72 being unable to slide is released. Therefore, it can be seen that the substrate case 74 has been opened by looking at the destruction traces of the part to be broken 180 for unlocking.

  When the substrate case 74 is detached from the mounting base 100, the substrate case 74 can be opened by breaking the two parts to be broken 180 for unlocking under the case 72 as shown in FIG. It is possible to slide the upper case 71 and the lower case 72). Further, in the state in which the substrate case 74 is attached to the mounting base 100, the two parts to be broken 180 for unlocking under the case 72 shown in FIG. 8 cannot be directly accessed, and as shown in FIG. By rupturing the two unlocking fractured portions 180 on the upper side of the upper case 71, the two unlocking fractured parts 180 on the lower case 72 located on the far side are finally accessed and cut. be able to.

  Further, since the fracture-released portion 180 for fixing is a connecting portion 181 that connects the upper case 71 or the lower case 72 and the sealing member 140, the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 can be separated by breaking the connecting portion 181. The case upper 71 and the case lower 72 can be opened. In addition, since the sealing member 140 remains in the upper case 71 or the lower case 72, it can be seen that the sealing member 140 has been opened by the fracture mark.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 9, the two connecting portions 181 on the lower side of the case upper 71 are not cut and broken but can be used as support portions. As described above, when the two lower connecting portions 181 on the case upper 71 are used as the support portions, the upper two connecting portions 181 on the case upper 71 and the two connecting portions 181 on the lower case 72 are cut. Even if this is done, the sealing member 140 can be prevented from falling into the slot machine 10.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 13B, by increasing the pin length of the caulking pin 160, the insertion side surface of the head 162 and the peripheral portion of the through hole 72f of the projecting portion 72e of the case lower 72 are set to a predetermined range. You may make it provide the gap | interval part 200 which opened the space | interval (for example, space | intervals, such as about 1-2 mm). In this case, the sealing member 140 is sealed with the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 in a state where the caulking pin 160 is inserted into the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150 and locked. In the state where the gap portion 200 is formed with a predetermined gap between the portion 150 and the bottomed locking hole 151 of the portion 150 to be sealed and the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked. 150 is provided with a cured resin 170 that is filled in the portion of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 and cured so as to go around the gap portion 200. The head 162, that is, the case upper 71, the case lower 72, and the caulking pin 160 can be bonded with the cured resin 170. In addition, since the cured resin 170 wraps around and adheres to the gap portion 200 between the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160 and the sealed portion 150, for example, the cured resin 170 of the sealing member 140 is improperly used. Even if it tries to remove using the thin member, it takes time to remove the cured resin 170 on the front side (front side) of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160, and the back side (back side) of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160. That is, since the cured resin 170 that has entered the gap portion 200 cannot be directly accessed, it is more difficult to remove the cured resin 170, and the caulking pins 160 and the portion to be sealed 150 are covered with the cured resin 170 in the gap portion 200. Are maintained in a bonded state, and it is difficult to remove the caulking pin 160. Therefore, it is difficult to open the substrate case 74 illegally. As a result, a slot machine (game machine) that can reduce fraud can be provided.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 12A, a predetermined shape formed between the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 and the sealed portion 150 and closer to the distal end side in the insertion direction than a part of the head 162. Since the cured resin 170 also wraps around and adheres to the gap (corresponding to the gap portion 200), it is more difficult to remove the cured resin 170 because the wrapped cured resin 170 cannot be directly accessed. In addition, the state where the caulking pin 160 and the sealed portion 150 are bonded with the cured resin 170 of the gap portion 200 is maintained, and it is difficult to remove the caulking pin 160.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 14, the sealed portion 150 is formed to protrude from the inner peripheral portion on the opening side of the bottomed locking hole 151, and is adhered to the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160 by the cured resin 170. A fragile part 154 may be provided. As shown in FIG. 14, the weakened portion 154 is an inner peripheral portion near the entrance of the bottomed locking hole 151, and two inner peripheral protruding portions protruding at, for example, two locations along the circumferential direction. 153. The two projecting portions 153 have a protruding length enough to enter a recessed portion between two adjacent extending portions 164 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160. Further, as shown in FIG. 14, in the front view state of the sealed portion 150, the left inner circumferential protrusion 153 exists so as to face a hollow portion between two extending portions 164 adjacent on the left side. Since the right inner peripheral projection 153 exists so as to face the hollow portion between the two adjacent extended portions 164 on the right side, the two inner peripheries of the bottomed locking holes 151 are provided. The shape surrounded by the projecting portion 153 and the six extending portions 164 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 has a complicated shape, and the shape of the cured resin 170 filled and cured in this portion. Can be in such a complicated form.

  In this case, if the cured resin 170 of the sealing member 140 is removed using an unauthorized thin member and the caulking pin 160 is illegally removed, the sealing resin 140 is encapsulated along with the unauthorized removal of the cured resin 170. Since the fragile portion 154 of the portion 150 is destroyed and the fragile portion 154 is taken together with the removed cured resin 170, even if the sealed portion 150 from which the fragile portion 154 has been removed is reused illegally, By observing the breakage of the fragile portion 154 of the sealed portion 150, it can be seen that the substrate case 74 has been opened. As a result, a slot machine (game machine) that can reduce fraud can be provided.

  Furthermore, as shown by a broken line in FIG. 14, the inner peripheral projection 153 may have a notch groove 155 formed on the base end side. That is, the back surface portion on the base end side of the two inner peripheral protrusions 153 has a predetermined depth (for example, 1 mm) along the base end side of the inner peripheral protrusion 153 as indicated by a broken line in FIG. The notch groove portion 155 is formed in a degree. The notch groove portion 155 may be formed at the front portion on the base end side of the inner peripheral projection portion 153, or may be formed at both the front surface and the back surface.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 14, the inner peripheral projection 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151 is provided with a notch groove 155 on the base end side thereof, so that the cured resin 170 is made of an illegal thin member. If it is attempted to be removed, the inner peripheral protrusion 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151 is more easily broken along with unauthorized removal of the cured resin 170, and the inner peripheral protrusion 153 together with the removed cured resin 170. Therefore, it can be seen that the substrate case 74 has been opened by looking at the breakage of the inner peripheral projection 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151.

  Next, the notification display unit 300 of the substrate case 74 according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.

  FIG. 19 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line CC of FIG. 7 of the main controller 70 of the second embodiment in a state where the connecting portion 181 of the sealing member 140 is not cut. 20 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line CC of FIG. 7 of the main controller 70 of the second embodiment in a state where the connecting portion 181 of the sealing member 140 is cut. FIG. 21A is a partial front view showing the location of the lower right sealing member 140 of the main control device 70 of the second embodiment in a state before the connection portion 181 is cut, and FIG. It is a partial front view which shows the location of the sealing member 140 of the state after a cutting | disconnection of 181. FIG.

  The second embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the output end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 includes a shielding portion 360 that reduces the emission of light from the output end side 322. Therefore, in the second embodiment, the configuration different from the first embodiment will be described in detail below, and the description of the same configuration as the first embodiment is omitted here.

  As shown in FIGS. 19 and 21A, the optical fiber 320 includes a shielding portion 360 that blocks emission of light from the emission end side 322 on the emission end side 322.

  As shown in FIG. 19 and FIG. 21A, in a normal state where the cut site 182 is not cut, emission of light from the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 is blocked by the shielding unit 360, and thus the connecting unit 181. Is off.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 20 and 21B, when the cut portion 182 is cut, the curled portion 323 is contracted, so that the cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320 is inside the cut surface of the cut portion 182. The cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320 that has been drawn in is positioned at the cut notification display portion 78 on the case 71, and light is emitted from the cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320, whereby the cut notification display portion 78 is obtained. Emits light.

  In the second embodiment, the shielding unit 360 is used on the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320. However, instead of the shielding unit 360, light is emitted toward the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 toward the incident end side 321. You may employ | adopt the reflection part (illustration omitted) which reflects.

  In addition, the shielding part 360 and reflection part (illustration omitted) mentioned above correspond to the termination | terminus part mentioned later.

  As described above, according to the slot machine 10 of the second embodiment, the optical fiber 320 has the light from the LED 310 incident from the incident end side 321 and the light emitting end side 322 located inside the sealing member 140. An optical fiber 320 from which light is emitted, and includes a shielding portion 360 (which may be the reflection portion (not shown)) that blocks light emission from the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320, and cuts the cut portion 182. In the normal state, the connecting portion 181 is in the extinguished state, and in the state after the cut portion 182 is cut, the cut notification display portion 78 on the case 71 where the cut end portion 320a of the drawn optical fiber 320 is located emits light. To do.

  Therefore, in the normal state where the cut site 182 is not cut, the connecting portion 181 is in the extinguished state, but in the state after the cut of the cut site 182, the cut end portion 320a of the drawn optical fiber 320 is located. Since the cutting notification display portion 78 of the upper 71 emits light, the cutting notification display portion 78 different from the sealing member 140 is lit, so that the disconnection of the connecting portion 181 can be clearly notified. Further, since the cut end portion 320a of the cut optical fiber 320 is drawn inward from the cut surface of the cut portion 182, it becomes difficult to access the cut end portion 320a. It is possible to reduce unauthorized reconnection.

  Further, in the second embodiment, the cut notification display portion 78 on the case 71 emits light in a state after the cut portion 182 is cut, but as shown in FIG. 18 in the above-described first embodiment. In addition, the cut portion of the connecting portion 181 where the cut end portion 320a of the drawn optical fiber 320 is located may be caused to emit light. In this case, in the state after cutting of the cut portion 182, the cut portion of the connecting portion 181 where the cut end portion 320 a of the drawn optical fiber 320 is located emits light, so that the cut portion of the connecting portion 181 is lit. As a result, the disconnection of the connecting portion 181 can be clearly notified. Further, since the cut end portion 320a of the cut optical fiber 320 is drawn inward from the cut surface of the cut portion 182, it becomes difficult to access the cut end portion 320a. It is possible to reduce unauthorized reconnection.

  Next, the notification display unit 300 of the substrate case 74 of the third embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.

  22 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line CC of FIG. 7 of the main controller 70 of the third embodiment in a state where the connecting portion 181 of the sealing member 140 is not cut. FIG. 23 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line CC of FIG. 7 of the main controller 70 of the third embodiment in a state where the connecting portion 181 of the sealing member 140 is cut. FIG. 24A is a partial front view showing a position of the lower right sealing member 140 of the main control device 70 of the third embodiment in a state before the connection portion 181 is cut, and FIG. It is a partial front view which shows the location of the sealing member 140 of the state after a cutting | disconnection of 181. FIG.

  In the third embodiment, similarly to the second embodiment described above, in the configuration in which the shielding portion 360 is provided on the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320, the light output portion 325 is provided at a position located at the connecting portion 181 in the optical fiber 320. This is different from the second embodiment described above. Accordingly, in the third embodiment, the configuration different from the above-described second embodiment will be described in detail below, and the description of the same configuration as the second embodiment is omitted here.

  As illustrated in FIG. 22, the optical fiber 320 includes a light output unit 325 that outputs light at a position located in the connection unit 181. The light output unit 325 is obtained by, for example, cutting out an outer peripheral portion located at the connection unit 181 in the optical fiber 320 into a V-shape. After the optical fiber 320 is formed, the light output portion 325 may be formed by cutting it into a V-shape, or the notch may be formed simultaneously when the optical fiber 320 is molded with plastic.

  As shown in FIG. 22 and FIG. 24A, in a normal state where the cut site 182 is not cut, the light emission from the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 is blocked by the shielding unit 360, and thus the connecting unit 181. Is turned off, but the connecting portion 181 is turned on by the emission of light from the light output portion 325 located at the connecting portion 181 in the optical fiber 320.

  As shown in FIGS. 23 and 24 (b), when the cut portion 182 is cut, the curled portion 323 is contracted, so that the cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320 is moved from the cut surface of the cut portion 182 to the inside. The cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320 that has been drawn in is positioned at the cut notification display portion 78 on the case 71, and light is emitted from the cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320, whereby the cut notification display portion 78 is obtained. Emits light. In addition, since the cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320 is thus drawn into the cut notification display portion 78 on the case 71, the cut connecting portion 181 is in the extinguished state.

  In the third embodiment, the shielding portion 360 is employed on the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320, but a reflecting portion (not shown) may be employed as in the second embodiment.

  The light output unit 325 described above corresponds to an emission unit described later.

  As described above, according to the slot machine 10 of the third embodiment, the optical fiber 320 has the light output unit 325 formed at the position where the light from the LED 310 is incident from the incident end side 321 and is located at the connecting portion 181. In the normal state where the cut portion 182 is not cut, the connection portion 181 emits light with the light emitted from the light output portion 325, and is drawn in the state after the cut portion 182 is cut. The cut notification display portion 78 on the case 71 where the cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320 is positioned emits light.

  Therefore, in a normal state where the cut site 182 is not cut, the connecting portion 181 emits light, and thus the cut site of the connecting portion 181 can be suggested. Further, in the state after the cut of the cut portion 182, the cut notification display portion 78 on the case 71 where the cut end portion 320 a of the pulled optical fiber 320 is located emits light. Since the display portion 78 is turned on, it is possible to clearly notify the disconnection of the connecting portion 181. Further, since the cut end portion 320a of the cut optical fiber 320 is drawn inward from the cut surface of the cut portion 182, it becomes difficult to access the cut end portion 320a. It is possible to reduce unauthorized reconnection.

  Next, the notification display unit 300 of the substrate case 74 according to the fourth embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 25A is a partial front view showing a position of the lower right sealing member 140 of the main control device 70 of the fourth embodiment in a state before the connection portion 181 is cut, and FIG. It is a partial front view which shows the location of the sealing member 140 of the state after a cutting | disconnection of 181. FIG.

  In the fourth embodiment, as shown in FIG. 25A, an optical fiber 320 with a curled portion 323 is passed through two connecting portions 181, and an optical signal incident from the incident end side 321 of the optical fiber 320 is emitted. It differs from the above-described first to third embodiments in that it is configured to notify the presence or absence of cutting of the cut portion 182 of the connecting portion 181 depending on whether or not the detector 370 on the end side 322 is normally detected. . Therefore, in the fourth embodiment, the configuration different from the first to third embodiments will be described in detail below, and the description of the same configuration as the first to third embodiments is omitted here.

  As shown in FIG. 25 (a), the optical fiber 320 is passed through two connecting portions 181. On the incident end side 321, an LED 310 for receiving an optical signal is disposed, and its emission end. Connected to side 322 is a detector 370 that detects the transmitted optical signal.

  In this embodiment, the detector 370 detects whether the amount of incident light of the optical signal from the optical fiber 320 is greater than or equal to a threshold value. In addition, a pulse signal, various modulation signals, etc. may be employ | adopted as an optical signal, and what detects whether it is a normal pulse signal, a normal modulation signal, etc. in the detector 370 may be employ | adopted.

  The detector 370 is further connected to the display unit 375, and the display unit 375 performs display informing that the cut site 182 is cut when the detector 370 detects an abnormality in the optical signal. As the display unit 375, various displays such as a small liquid crystal display and a digital display may be employed in addition to a lamp or LED that performs notification lighting or notification blinking.

  As described above, the display unit 375 may display only when an abnormality is detected. However, when the optical signal is normally detected by the detector 370, the display unit 375 is configured to cut the cut portion 182. It may be possible to perform a normal display of not being performed.

  Further, the curled portion 323 is located between the left connecting portion 181 and the detector 370 in FIG.

  The detector 370 described above corresponds to the detection means in the present invention, and the display unit 375 described above corresponds to the suggesting means in the present invention.

  The optical fiber 320 receives the optical signal from the LED 310 from the incident end side 321 and transmits the optical signal to the detector 370 on the output end side 322. In a normal state where the cut site 182 is not cut, the optical signal transmitted to the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 is normally detected by the detector 370 as shown in FIG. A normal display 375 indicates that the cut site 182 is not cut.

  25B, when the cut site 182 is cut, the optical signal from the optical fiber 320 cannot be detected by the detector 370, and the display unit 375 displays that the cut site 182 is cut. I do. Further, as shown in FIG. 25B, when the cut site 182 is cut, the curled portion 323 contracts, so that the cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320 is drawn into the inside from the cut surface of the cut site 182. .

  As described above, according to the slot machine 10 of the fourth embodiment, the optical fiber 320 is an optical transmission member that receives an optical signal from the incident end side 321 and transmits it to the emission end side 322. A detector 370 for detecting an optical signal output from the output end side 322 of the optical fiber 320, and a display for notifying the cutting portion 182 of the connecting portion 181 when the optical signal from the optical fiber 320 is not detected by the detector 370 And a display unit 375 for performing the above. Therefore, the disconnection of the connecting portion 181 can be clearly notified by the display portion 375. Further, since the cut end portion 320a of the cut optical fiber 320 is drawn inward from the cut surface of the cut portion 182, it becomes difficult to access the cut end portion 320a. It is possible to reduce unauthorized reconnection.

  In the fourth embodiment, the optical fiber 320 is used. However, a conducting wire provided with the curled portion 323 is adopted, the presence / absence of an electrical signal from the conducting wire is detected by the detector 370, and the electrical signal is detected by the detector 370. When the detection is not detected, the display unit 375 may display to notify the cutting of the cut portion 182 of the connecting unit 181. This case also has the same effect as the fourth embodiment.

  In the fourth embodiment, the display unit 375 is employed as the suggesting unit. However, instead of the display unit 375, an audio output unit (not illustrated) that notifies the disconnection by a notification sound may be employed. Also, an audio output unit (not shown) may be employed together with the display unit 375.

  Next, a substrate case 74 of the slot machine 10 according to the fifth embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.

  FIGS. 26A to 26G are, in that order, a top view, a left side view, a front view, a right side view, a back view, a bottom view, and a front perspective view of the caulking pin 160 of the fifth embodiment.

The bottomed locking hole 151 is circular when viewed from the front, and has a weak portion 154 (inner peripheral protrusion 153) at the inner peripheral portion near the entrance, unlike the first embodiment. ing. In the fifth embodiment, the configuration different from the first embodiment will be described in detail below, and the description of the same configuration as the first embodiment is omitted here.

  As shown in FIG. 26, the caulking pin 160 according to the fifth embodiment has eight extending portions 164 formed radially from a circular head 162 in a front view. Further, as shown in FIG. 26, the caulking pin 160 has, for example, three parallel linear grooves 165 formed on the surface side of the head 162 thereof. As shown in FIGS. 26A, 26F, and 26G, the groove 165 has a V-shape when viewed in cross section. The portion other than the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 of the fifth embodiment, that is, the insertion locking portion 161 has the same structure as the caulking pin 160 of the first embodiment.

  Subsequently, as shown in FIGS. 27A to 27C, the sealed portion 150 of Example 5 has a bottomed locking hole 151 that is circular in a front view, and further, near the entrance. The fragile portion 154 is formed so as to protrude from the inner peripheral portion. The fragile portions 154 are five inner peripheral protrusions 153 protruding at, for example, five locations along the circumferential direction near the entrance of the bottomed locking hole 151. In the fifth embodiment, the inner circumferential protrusion 153 has a protruding length that does not contact the extended portion 164 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160. That is, the tip of the inner peripheral projection 153 and the tip of the extension 164 are positioned with a predetermined interval (for example, an interval of about 1 to 2 mm).

  In the fifth embodiment, as shown in FIG. 27A, five inner peripheral projections 153 are formed to protrude in the inner peripheral direction of the bottomed locking hole 151, and the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 extends. Since the number of the protruding portions 164 is 8, the number of both is different. That is, as shown in FIG. 27A, in the front view of the sealed portion 150, a recess between the portion where the inner peripheral protrusion 153 and the extension portion 164 face each other and the adjacent inner peripheral protrusion 153. Since there are portions where the extending portions 164 face in the portions, the five inner peripheral protruding portions 153 of the bottomed locking holes 151, the eight extending portions 164 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160, etc. The shape surrounded by is intricately intruded, and the shape of the cured resin 170 filled in this portion and cured can be intricately intruded.

  Further, the five inner peripheral projections 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151 of the fifth embodiment are formed with notch grooves 155 on the base end side thereof as shown by broken lines in FIG. . That is, the back surface portion on the base end side of the five inner peripheral protrusions 153 has a predetermined depth (for example, along the base end side of the inner peripheral protrusion 153 as shown by a broken line in FIG. The notch groove portion 155 is formed by about 1 mm. The notch groove portion 155 may be formed at the front portion on the base end side of the inner peripheral projection portion 153, or may be formed at both the front surface and the back surface.

  As shown in FIG. 27 (d), the inner peripheral projection 153 has a projection shape like an internal gear, the extension 164 has a projection shape like an external gear, and the caulking pin 160 has a bottomed locking hole. The inner gear-shaped inner peripheral projection 153 and the outer gear-shaped extension 164 may be engaged with each other while being inserted into and locked by the gear 151. For example, in FIG. 27D, a plurality of (for example, eight) inner peripheral protrusions 153 and a plurality of (for example, eight) extended portions 164 are located between adjacent inner peripheral protrusions 153. The extending portion 164 is disposed so as to be positioned.

  Similarly to the first embodiment, the bottomed locking hole 151 includes, in order from the inlet side, an insertion through hole 71g in the case upper 71, a through hole 72f in the protrusion 72e in the case lower 72, and a case upper 71, and the diameter of the insertion through hole 71g of the upper case 71 is larger than the diameter of the through hole 72f of the protruding part 72e of the lower case 72. Between 153, a part of the case lower 72 (a part around the through hole 72f of the protrusion 72e) is exposed, and a part of the case lower 72 (a part of the periphery of the through hole 72f of the protrusion 72e). A cured resin 170, which will be described later, adheres to the substrate.

  As shown in FIG. 27, when the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151, the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 is positioned in the receiving recess 152. In this state, in the same manner as in Example 1 described above, the pre-curing resin is filled into the receiving recess 152, and the pre-curing resin is irradiated with ultraviolet rays and cured. The cured resin 170 is cured in a state where it enters the groove portion 165 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160, and each inner periphery at the five inner peripheral protrusions 153 near the entrance of the bottomed locking hole 151. It hardens | cures in the state which entered also between the protrusion parts 153 and between the inner peripheral protrusion parts 153 and the extension part 164. FIG. The bottomed locking hole 151 and the caulking pin 160 are bonded by the cured resin 170. That is, the case upper 71, the case lower 72 and the caulking pin 160 are bonded together.

The adhesion area between the bottomed locking hole 151 and the cured resin 170 is further improved, and the surface area of the groove portion 165 of the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160 can be increased. As a result, the adhesion area of the head 162 to the cured resin 170 can be increased, and the adhesive force between the head 162 and the cured resin 170 is further improved by the increased amount, and the groove 165 extends the extension portion. Since the 164 is easily broken, when the cured resin 170 is removed using an unauthorized thin member, the extending portion 164 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 is accompanied by the unauthorized removal of the cured resin 170. At the notch groove 165 Since the extended portion 164 is removed together with the removed cured resin 170, even if the caulking pin 160 whose extended portion 164 is broken is reused illegally, the head portion of the caulking pin 160 is removed. By observing the break of the extended portion 164 of 162, it can be seen that the substrate case 74 has been opened.

  Further, if the cured resin 170 is to be removed using an unauthorized thin member, the inner peripheral protrusion 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151 is broken along with the unauthorized removal of the cured resin 170, and the removed cured resin is removed. Since the inner peripheral protrusion 153 is removed together with the resin 170, it can be seen that the substrate case 74 has been opened by looking at the breakage of the inner peripheral protrusion 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 27 (a), the inner peripheral projection 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151 is provided with a notch groove 155 on the base end side thereof, so that the cured resin 170 is improperly formed into a thin member. The inner peripheral projection 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151 is more easily broken along with unauthorized removal of the cured resin 170, and the inner periphery together with the removed cured resin 170 is removed. Since the protruding portion 153 is removed, it can be seen that the substrate case 74 has been opened by looking at the breakage of the inner peripheral protruding portion 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151.

  Next, a substrate case 74 of the slot machine 10 according to the sixth embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.

FIG. 42A is a partial front view showing 140 sealing member positions in the main controller 70 before the connecting portion 181 is cut, and FIG. 42B is a view after the connecting portion 181 is cut. 4 is a partial front view showing 140 sealing members in main controller 70. FIG.

  In the eighth embodiment, as in the first embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 38 and 39, the exit end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 is close to the light-transmitting cured resin 170 in the sealing member 140. It is arranged. As shown in FIG. 39, the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 is disposed so as to face the center portion of the sealing member 140 (the pin center portion of the caulking pin 160) in the front view of the main controller 70. Yes.

  Further, in the above-described first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7, there are two connecting portions 181 that are connected to the sealed portion 150 in the vertical direction, but in this eighth embodiment, as shown in FIG. One connecting portion 181 connected to the sealed portion 150 in the direction is provided. As shown in FIG. 39, the connecting portion 181 is formed such that the connecting direction is directed toward the central portion of the receiving recess 152. As shown in FIG. 40, the linear portion 324 of the optical fiber 320 is passed through the inside of the connecting portion 181.

  As shown in FIGS. 39 and 40, the optical fiber 320 of the eighth embodiment is in a state where the emission end side 322 is positioned in the vicinity of the cured resin 170 (for example, the location of the receiving recess 152) in the sealing member 140. In the same manner as in Example 1 described above, it is fixed with a light-transmitting adhesive 340. Further, the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 is directed to the center of the receiving recess 152 as shown in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 40, the optical fiber 320 includes a curled portion 323 as in the first embodiment. When the optical fiber 320 is provided, the curled portion 323 is stretched in the length direction. .

  Since the upper case 71 and the caulking pin 160 are transparent resin molded products, and the cured resin 170 is also a light-transmitting resin, the cut portion 182 is cut as shown in FIGS. 39, 40 and 42 (a). In the normal state, the light emitted from the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 is incident on the receiving recess 152 and the cured resin 170 in the sealing member 140 on the case 71, and is incident on the receiving recess 152 and the cured resin 170. The receiving recess 152 and the cured resin 170 emit light by the light that has been emitted. In addition, when the light diffusing particles are included in the cured resin 170, the cured resin 170 can emit light more uniformly.

  In addition, since the caulking pin 160 is also transparent, the caulking pin 160 emits light by light incident on the caulking pin 160 through the cured resin 170.

  Further, the light diffusing particles may be included in the transparent resin constituting the upper case 71 and the caulking pin 160 so that the sealing member 140 and the caulking pin 160 on the upper case 71 emit light more uniformly.

  As shown in FIGS. 40 and 42A, in a normal state where the cut site 182 is not cut, the light emitted from the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 enters the receiving recess 152 in the sealing member 140. At the same time, the light emitted from the receiving recess 152 toward the cured resin 170 enters the cured resin 170. When the incident light is emitted from the receiving recess 152 and the cured resin 170, the receiving recess 152 and the cured resin 170 emit light.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 41, when the cut portion 182 of the connecting portion 181 is cut, the linear portion 324 of the optical fiber 320 is cut along with the cutting, and the cut optical fiber 320 is cut. The end part 320a is drawn inward from the cut surface of the part 182 to be cut by contraction of the curled part 323 that has been stretched.

  As shown in FIGS. 41 and 42 (b), in the state after the cut portion 182 is cut, the cut end portion 320a of the drawn optical fiber 320 is positioned at the cut notification display portion 78 on the case 71, and the optical fiber 320 is cut. When the light is emitted from the cut end portion 320a, the cut notification display portion 78 emits light.

  As in the first embodiment, the caulking pin 160 includes a weakened portion 163 that can be easily separated from the head 162 as shown in FIG. Since the fragile portion 163 is bonded to the sealed portion 150 by the cured resin 170, if the cured resin 170 is illegally scraped off, the fragile portion 163 can be easily removed by being caught by the scraped cured resin 170. .

  The above-described substrate case 74 corresponds to a coupling member described later.

  As described above, according to the slot machine 10 of the eighth embodiment, the substrate case 74 in which the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 are joined, and the sealing member 140 that seals the joined state so as not to be released. The connecting portion 181 for connecting the case upper 71 and the sealing member 140 is provided, and this connecting portion 181 separates the case upper 71 and the sealing member 140 when the sealing by the sealing member 140 is released. The substrate case 74 is provided from the top 71 to the sealing member 140 so as to pass through the inside of the cut portion 182, and light from the LED 310 is incident from one end side. The optical fiber 320 that is emitted from the emission end side 322 that is the other end side close to the connecting portion 181 and emits light from the sealing member 140, and the light that is cut along with the cutting of the cut portion 182 A curled portion 323 that biases the cut end portion 320a of the fiber 320 so as to be pulled inwardly from the cut surface of the cut portion 182. In a normal state where the cut portion 182 is not cut, The sealing member 140 emits light emitted from the emission end side 322, and in the state after the cut portion 182 is cut, the cut portion 182 is cut by the light emitted from the cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320 that is drawn. Emits light.

  Therefore, in a normal state where the cut site 182 is not cut, the sealing member 140 emits light emitted from the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 (in the case of the sealing member 140 containing light diffusing particles). The sealing member 140 emits light uniformly, and in the case of the sealing member 140 that does not contain light diffusing particles, the surface portion where the incident light reaches the sealing member 140 emits light). In addition, it is possible to draw attention to the game site personnel and the like on the sealing member 140 that emits light, and it is possible to visually check the sealing member 140 in a bright and easy-to-see state, and it is easy to check whether the sealing member 140 is fraudulent.

  On the other hand, in the post-cutting state of the cut portion 182, the cut notification display portion 78 on the case 71 where the cut end portion 320 a of the drawn optical fiber 320 is located emits light, so the cut notification display portion 78 is lit. By doing so, the disconnection of the connecting portion 181 can be clearly notified to a game hall related person or the like.

  Further, since the cut end portion 320a of the cut optical fiber 320 is drawn inward from the cut surface of the cut portion 182 and is located at the cut notification display portion 78, the cut end portion 320a can be accessed. It becomes difficult, and it is possible to reduce unauthorized reconnection of the cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320.

  As described above, it is possible to cause the game site personnel or the like to gaze at the sealing member 140 before cutting the cut site 182 and the cut site 182 after cutting the cut site 182. Notification according to before and after cutting can be performed.

  Therefore, it is possible to provide a gaming machine that can easily find fraudulent traces on the sealing member 140 and the connecting portion 181 and reduce fraudulent acts.

  In addition, the sealing member 140 includes a sealed portion 150 having a bottomed locking hole 151 formed in communication with the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 and a bottomed locking of the sealed portion 150. A caulking pin 160 having an insertion locking part 161 inserted into the hole 151 and locked and a head 162 positioned on the rear end side of the insertion locking part 161 and a bottomed locking of the sealed part 150 A light-transmitting curable resin 170 filled and cured in the portion of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 in the sealed portion 150 in a state where the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the hole 151; The optical fiber 320 is arranged so as to introduce light emitted from the emission end side 322 thereof into the cured resin 170, and in a normal state where the cut portion 182 is not cut, the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 is provided. Sealed with light emitted from Curing resin 170 in the wood 140 emits light.

  Therefore, in a normal state where the cut site 182 is not cut, the light emitted from the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 is incident on the cured resin 170 of the sealing member 140, and this incident light is the light in the cured resin 170. Since it is diffused by the diffusing particles and emitted to the outside, the cured resin 170 emits light uniformly, and the cured resin 170 of the sealing member 140 can be visually confirmed in a bright and easy-to-see state. It is easy to confirm the presence or absence of fraud with respect to the cured resin 170 filled in the container.

  Further, when the cured resin 170 does not include light diffusing particles, if the cured resin 170 in the sealed portion 150 of the sealing member 140 is scraped or cut, a scraped portion of the cured resin 170 or Since light is emitted from the cut portion, the shaved portion or the cut portion is noticeable due to light emission, and it is easy to find a trace of destruction on the cured resin 170.

  Further, at least the light from the exit end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 reaches the inside of the cured resin 170 (only when it does not include light diffusing particles) among the inner surface portions in contact with the cured resin 170 in the receiving recess 152. When a light absorbing member (for example, a filter, a film, a sheet, or a light absorbing layer that absorbs visible light) is provided at a location where light is applied, the light from the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 is cured resin 170 (light diffusing particles). However, the cured resin 170 does not emit light by being absorbed by the light absorbing member. However, when the cured resin 170 is cut or cut, the cured resin 170 is not absorbed. Light is emitted from the shaved part or cut part. That is, when the cured resin 170 that is not normally emitting light is cut or cut, the cut part or the cut part emits light so that it is particularly noticeable, and it is easier to find a trace of the destruction to the cured resin 170.

  Further, since the weakened portion 163 in the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 is easily separated and is adhered to the sealed portion 150 by the cured resin 170, the cured resin 170 around the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 is removed. When the fraudster tries to scrape off, the fragile portion 163 is also removed together with the cured resin 170 scraped off. Even if the fragile portion 163 that has been removed is returned to the sealed portion 150 as it was, the boundary surface between the fragile portion 163 and the head 162 that has been returned is conspicuous due to irregular reflection of light, and the trace of destruction to the caulking pin 160 is observed. Easy to find.

  Further, in the eighth embodiment, in the state after the cut portion 182 is cut, the cut notification display portion 78 on the case 71 emits light. However, as shown in FIG. In the post-cutting state, the cut site 182 may emit light with the light emitted from the cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320 that has been drawn. FIG. 43 is a cross-sectional view of main controller 70 taken along the line DD in a state where the cut portion of connecting portion 181 is caused to emit light. In this case, in the state after the cut of the cut portion 182, the cut portion 182 of the connecting portion 181 emits light by the light emitted from the cut end portion 320 a of the optical fiber 320 that has been drawn. It is possible to notify a game hall official or the like that the part 182 has been cut. Further, after the connecting part 181 is cut by the fraudulent person and the combined state of the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 is released and the illegal action is made, the disconnected connecting part 181 is rearranged to the original position. Even if the to-be-cut | disconnected site | part 182 stands out by irregular reflection of light, it will be easy to discover the destruction trace to the connection part 181. Further, since the cut end portion 320a of the cut optical fiber 320 is drawn inward from the cut surface of the cut portion 182, it becomes difficult to access the cut end portion 320a. It is possible to reduce unauthorized reconnection.

  Note that the above-described first embodiment also has the above-described effects in the first embodiment because it is common in that the light is incident on the sealing member 140 as in the eighth embodiment. In the eighth embodiment, the output end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 is disposed so as to be directed toward the center of the sealing member 140 (the pin center of the caulking pin 160) as compared with the first embodiment. The amount of incident light on the central portion of the sealing member 140 (the cured resin 170 and the head 162 of the caulking pin 160) is larger than that in the first embodiment.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 14 of the first embodiment described above, the sealed portion 150 is formed so as to protrude from the inner peripheral portion on the opening side of the bottomed locking hole 151, and the head of the caulking pin 160 by the cured resin 170. It is good also as a structure further provided with the weak part 155 adhere | attached on the part 162. FIG. In this case, if the cured resin 170 of the sealing member 140 is removed using an unauthorized thin member, the fragile portion 155 of the sealed portion 150 is destroyed along with the unauthorized removal of the cured resin 170, The fragile portion 155 is removed together with the removed cured resin 170. Even if the fragile portion 155 thus removed is returned to the sealed portion 150 as it was, the boundary surface between the returned fragile portion 155 and the head 162 is conspicuous due to irregular reflection of light, and the destruction trace to the caulking pin 160 is observed. Easy to find.

  The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and may have another configuration that exhibits the same effect. For example, the present invention can be modified as follows.

  <1> In Examples 1 to 4 and 8 described above, the optical fiber 320 is provided in the connecting portion 181 of the upper case 71, but may be provided in the lower case 72. In the modification of the fourth embodiment, the connecting portion 181 of the upper case 71 is provided with a conducting wire instead of the optical fiber 320, but may be provided on the lower case 72.

  <2> In the first to fourth and eighth embodiments described above, the curled portion 323 is employed as the urging means, but the output end side 322 of the linear optical fiber 320 is fixed, and the connecting portion in the optical fiber 320 is used. A configuration may be adopted in which a portion closer to the LED 310 than 181 is biased in a direction away from the connecting portion 181 by an elastic member (for example, a coil spring or a leaf spring). Even in this case, the cut end portion 320a of the optical fiber 320 can be pulled into the cut surface of the cut portion 182 by cutting the cut portion 182 of the connecting portion 181.

  <3> In each of the embodiments described above, the electronic component mounting surface of the main control board 73 is attached to the inner surface of the case upper 71 in a state of facing the inner surface of the case upper 71. The solder surface may be attached to face the case 71. Although the main control board 73 is attached to the case upper 71, it may be attached to the case lower 72. Alternatively, the electronic component mounting surface of the main control board 73 may be attached to the inner side surface of the case lower 72 so as to face it. Alternatively, the solder surfaces may be attached to face each other.

  <4> As shown in FIGS. 34A and 34B, the upper case 71 has an enclosure wall 210 that surrounds the boundary surface BL between the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 at the location where the sealing member 140 exists. You may make it prepare. In this case, since the boundary surface BL between the case upper 71 and the case lower 72 at the location where the sealing member 140 exists is surrounded by the surrounding wall 210 of the case upper 71, the boundary surface BL is illegal. The insertion of the thin member can be made difficult, and it is difficult to separate the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 at the place where the sealing member 140 exists by inserting an illegal thin member into the boundary surface BL. can do. Further, even if an illegal thin member is inserted at the boundary between the enclosure wall 210 of the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 not having the enclosure wall 210, a force is only applied in the direction of warping the enclosure wall 210. Since no force is applied in the direction separating the boundary surface BL, that is, the direction in which the caulking pin 160 is removed, the sealing member 140 cannot be unsealed even if an unauthorized thin member is forcibly inserted along the enclosure wall 210. . As a result, a gaming machine using the substrate case 74 that can reduce unauthorized opening can be provided. Further, the same effect is obtained when the enclosure wall 210 is provided under the case 72.

  <5> As shown in FIG. 35, the bottomed locking hole 151 is formed in the through hole 220 formed in the upper case 71 and having a diameter larger than the insertion locking portion 161 of the caulking pin 160, and the lower case 72. It is good also as a two-stage hole which formed and was formed in communication with the back side hole part 221 which is smaller in diameter than the through-hole part 220 and latches the insertion latching part 161. In this case, the pre-curing resin filled in the receiving recess 152 of the sealed portion 150 in the state where the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150 passes through. The resin can flow between the hole 220 and the insertion locking portion 161 and be cured in contact with the upper case 71, the lower case 72, and the caulking pin 160. 72 and the caulking pin 160 can be bonded to each other, and it is further difficult to remove the cured resin 170 that has entered the through-hole portion 220 of the bottomed locking hole 151, thereby reducing fraud. .

  <6> The case upper 71 and the case lower 72 of each embodiment described above adopt a configuration in which the case upper 71 and the case lower 72 are closed by sliding at least one of them together. However, it is also possible to employ a fitting structure without a slide or a configuration in which the rotary shaft is used as a pivotal combination.

  <7> As shown in FIG. 36, a notch groove portion 168 may be provided on the proximal end side of the extension portion 164 of the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160. 36, the notch groove portion 168 is formed on the base end side of the extension portion 164 on the insertion surface side of the head portion 162. However, the notch groove portion 168 extends on the surface side of the head portion 162. You may form in the base end side of the part 164. FIG. Moreover, you may make it provide the notch groove part 168 in the base end side of the extension part 164 of the head 162 of the crimping pin 160 of Examples 5-8. In this case, since the extending portion 164 includes the notch groove portion 168 on the base end side, the surface area of the notch groove portion 168 of the extending portion 164 is also equal to the cured resin 170 of the head portion 162. The adhesion area between the head 162 and the cured resin 170 is further improved, and the extending portion 164 is easily broken at the notch groove portion 168. Therefore, it is possible to form the fragile portion 163 that is more easily broken, and if the cured resin 170 is to be removed using an unauthorized thin member, the head of the caulking pin 160 is accompanied by the unauthorized removal of the cured resin 170. The extended portion 164 of 162 is broken at the notch groove portion 168, and the extended portion 164 is removed together with the removed cured resin 170. Therefore, the caulking pin 160 that has been broken by the extended portion 164 is illegally re-applied. Also use, by looking at the breaking of the extending portion 164 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160, it can be seen that the board case 74 has been opened.

  <8> Although the groove portion 165 is provided on the surface side of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 of the fifth embodiment described above (see FIG. 26), the groove portion 165 may not be provided.

  <9> In each of the above-described embodiments, the fixing / breaking broken portion 180 is cut and broken at a predetermined location with a cutting tool. For example, the thickness of the fixing / releasing broken portion 180 is different from that of another portion. It is good also as what breaks by making it thin compared and pressing down the to-be-destructed part 180 for this cancellation | release.

  <10> In each of the above-described embodiments, the substrate case 74 that accommodates the main control board 73 is described as an example, but various control boards such as a display control board other than the main control board 73 are provided inside. It can also be adopted for a substrate case housed in the housing.

  <11> In each of the above-described embodiments, the substrate case 74 stores the main control board 73 in the internal space in a state where the case upper 71 and the case lower 72 are combined. After the main control board 73 is attached, the attachment surface side of the main control board 73 on the case upper 71 is covered with another member, and at least a part of this other member is covered with the case lower 72, and the case upper 71 and the case lower 72 may be sealed with a sealing member 140 so that the substrate case 74 cannot be opened.

  <12> In each of the embodiments described above, the bottomed locking hole 151 is used as the locking hole, but a bottomless locking hole may be used.

  <13> In each embodiment described above, the sealing member 140 is used for sealing (caulking) the substrate case 74, but the sealing member 140 is sealed (caulking) between the substrate case 74 and the mounting base 100. It may be used for sealing, or may be used for sealing (caulking) various components. For example, parts that are in trouble if they are illegally replaced or altered in the distribution process or amusement hall (hall) include a payout device, a start lever, and a stop switch.

  <14> In each of the above-described embodiments, the head 162 has a T-shape when viewed in at least one direction as shown in FIG. 12B, but may have other shapes, and the head 162 may be viewed in cross section. It is good also as a shape smaller than the insertion through-hole 71g. It can be said that the head 162 is the rear end.

  <15> In the above-described Examples 1 to 4 and 8, the output end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 is bonded and fixed to the back side of the insertion hole 77 with the adhesive 340, but in FIGS. 37 (a) and 37 (b). Locking and fixing as shown may be employed.

  FIG. 37 (a) shows a configuration in which the output end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 is locked and fixed, and the locked recess 380 is attached to the lock attachment component 380 attached to the outer periphery of the output end side 322 of the optical fiber 320. FIG. 37B is a schematic cross-sectional view of the main part when the portion 380a is formed and the locking projection 77a is formed in the insertion hole 77. FIG. It is a principal part schematic sectional drawing at the time of forming the latching protrusion 380b in the latching attachment component 380 which adhered and attached to the outer periphery of the output end side 322 of 320, for example.

  As shown in FIG. 37 (a), a recessed portion 380 a to be locked is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the locking attachment component 380 that is bonded and attached to the outer periphery of the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320, and the depth of the insertion hole 77 is increased. When the locking projection 77 a is formed on the inner wall portion on the side and the optical fiber 320 is inserted into the insertion hole 77, the locking projection 77 a of the insertion hole 77 is locked to the locked recess 380 a of the optical fiber 320. A configuration in which the emission end side 322 is locked and fixed to the insertion hole 77 may be employed.

  As an opposite configuration, as shown in FIG. 37 (b), a locking recess 77b is formed in the insertion hole 77, and the locking is attached to the outer periphery of the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 by, for example, bonding. When the locking projection 380 b is formed on the attachment part 380 and the optical fiber 320 is inserted into the insertion hole 77, the locking projection 380 b of the optical fiber 320 is locked to the locked recess 77 b of the insertion hole 77, and the optical fiber 320 is emitted. The end side 322 may be locked and fixed to the insertion hole 77.

  In addition, a locked recess 380 a and a locking projection 380 b may be formed on the outer jacket portion of the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320. Since the locked recess 380a and the locking projection 380b are formed in the outer cover portion, there is no light leakage from the locked recess 380a and the locking projection 380b.

  <16> In Examples 1 to 4 and 8 described above, the incident end side 321 of the optical fiber 320 is bonded and fixed to the support member 350 with the adhesive 340, as shown in FIGS. 37 (c) and 37 (d). Locking and fixing may be employed.

  FIG. 37 (c) shows a configuration in which the incident end side 321 of the optical fiber 320 is locked and fixed, and the locked recess 380 is attached to the locking attachment component 380 attached to the outer periphery of the incident end side 321 of the optical fiber 320. FIG. 37D is a schematic cross-sectional view of a main part when the portion 380a is formed and the locking projection 351a is formed in the through hole 351 of the support member 350. FIG. It is a principal part schematic sectional drawing at the time of forming the latching protrusion 380b in the latching attachment component 380 which formed the hollow part 351b and adhered and attached to the outer periphery of the incident end side 321 of the optical fiber 320.

  As shown in FIG. 37 (c), a recessed portion 380 a to be locked is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the locking attachment component 380 attached, for example, to the outer periphery of the incident end side 321 of the optical fiber 320, and When a locking projection 351a is formed on the inner wall portion on the back side of the through hole 351 and the optical fiber 320 is inserted into the through hole 351, the locking projection 351a of the through hole 351 is locked to the locked recess 380a of the optical fiber 320. In addition, a configuration in which the incident end side 321 of the optical fiber 320 is locked and fixed to the through hole 351 may be employed.

  Further, as an opposite configuration, a recessed portion 351b to be locked may be formed in the through hole 351, and a locking protrusion 380b may be formed on the optical fiber 320 to be locked and fixed.

  In addition, a locked recess 380 a and a locking protrusion 380 b may be formed on the outer cover portion of the incident end side 321 of the optical fiber 320. Since the locked recess 380a and the locking projection 380b are formed in the outer cover portion, there is no light leakage from the locked recess 380a and the locking projection 380b.

  <17> In Embodiments 1 to 4 described above, the cut portion 320 of the optical fiber 320 is drawn toward the inside of the substrate box 263, but is drawn toward the inside of the sealed portion 150 (caulking portion). Also good.

  <18> In the first to fourth and eighth embodiments described above, the optical fiber 320 is employed as the transmission member and the light transmission member. However, a light guide component such as a light guide member or a light guide plate is used as a component other than the optical fiber. It may be adopted.

  <19> In each embodiment described above, a part of the optical fiber 320 (a part of the linear part 324) is passed through the inside of the connecting part 181, but a part of the optical fiber 320 (a part of the linear part 324). Is disposed outside the connecting portion 181 (for example, disposed along the outer surface of the connecting portion 181), and light from the emission end side 322 is incident on the sealing member 140 or the cured resin 170. Also good. Alternatively, the exit end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 may be disposed in front of the connecting portion 181 so that light from the exit end side 322 enters the sealing member 140 and the cured resin 170 through the connecting portion 181.

  <20> In the first embodiment described above, as shown in FIG. 17A, the emission end side 322 of the optical fiber 320 is the central portion of the sealing member 140 (the head 162 of the cured resin 170 and the caulking pin 160). However, the light emitting end side 322 may be disposed so as to face the central portion of the sealing member 140 (the cured resin 170 or the head 162 of the caulking pin 160). In this case, the amount of light incident on the central portion of the sealing member 140 (the cured resin 170 and the head 162 of the caulking pin 160) can be increased.

  <21> In addition, the present invention may be implemented in various types (for example, first type, third type, etc.) of gaming machines, or may be implemented in a pachinko machine of a type different from the above example. For example, once a big hit, a pachinko machine that raises the expected value of the big hit until a big hit state occurs (for example, two times or three times) including that (for example, a two-time right item, a three-time right item) May also be implemented. Moreover, after a jackpot symbol is displayed, it may be implemented as a pachinko machine that enters a special gaming state on the condition that a ball is won in a predetermined area. Moreover, you may implement as a pachinko machine which will be in a special game state when a ball enters a predetermined winning opening. Further, in addition to pachinko machines, various game machines such as an arrangement ball type pachinko machine, a sparrow ball, a game machine in which a so-called pachinko machine and a slot machine are integrated may be used.

  In addition, as a specific example of a gaming machine in which a pachinko machine and a slot machine are fused, a variable display means for displaying a fixed symbol after displaying a variable symbol row consisting of a plurality of symbols is provided, and a handle for launching a ball is provided. What is not provided. In this case, after inserting a predetermined amount of game balls based on a predetermined operation (button operation), for example, the variation of the symbol is started due to the operation of the operation lever, for example, due to the operation of the stop button, or the predetermined amount With the passage of time, the fluctuation of the symbol is stopped, and a jackpot state advantageous to the player is generated on the condition that the confirmed symbol at the time of stoppage is a so-called jackpot symbol. A lot of balls are paid out.

  The present specification also discloses an invention relating to the following gaming machines.

<First issue>
Conventionally, for example, there is a slot machine as a representative example of a gaming machine. In this slot machine, for example, a control device in which a control board for controlling a game is housed in a board case is disposed at a predetermined position inside the housing. The substrate case includes, for example, a base portion and a cover portion for enclosing and housing the control substrate therein. The substrate case is provided with a sealing mechanism for sealing the case so that it cannot be opened. Unless the connection part that connects the sealing mechanism and the substrate case is cut, the substrate case has a structure that cannot be opened, and when the case is opened by cutting the connection part, Based on this, the presence or absence of opening (regardless of the type of regular opening or unauthorized opening) can be confirmed, and unauthorized opening prevention is achieved (for example, refer to Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-111027).

However, the conventional example having such a configuration has the following problems.
There is a possibility that the connecting part is cut by the fraudster and the substrate case is illegally opened, and after the control board is fraudulent, the cut sealing mechanism may be rearranged. In this case, there is a problem that it is difficult to find the cutting trace of the connecting portion, and the discovery of unauthorized opening of the substrate case is delayed.

  The following invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a gaming machine that can reduce fraud.

<Third issue>
Conventionally, there is a pachinko machine, for example, as a representative example of a gaming machine. This pachinko machine has, for example, an outer frame that forms an outer shell of the pachinko machine and is fixed to a game island of a game hall (hall), and a left end side in front view of the outer frame with respect to the outer frame with the opening / closing axis as an opening / closing axis. An inner frame that is supported so as to be opened and closed, a game board that is attached so that a game area is positioned in an opening formed at a substantially center of the inner frame, and a left end side in front view of the inner frame as an opening / closing axis And a front door that is supported to be openable and closable with respect to the inner frame and has a viewing window for visually recognizing the game area.

  In addition, the pachinko machine includes a board case that houses a control board for controlling the game on the back side thereof. The substrate case includes a base portion and a cover portion for enclosing and housing the control substrate therein. Further, the substrate case includes a sealing mechanism for sealing the case. This sealing mechanism has a structure that cannot be opened unless a predetermined portion is destroyed. When the case is opened after the sealing mechanism is broken, the opening is made based on the destruction of the sealing mechanism (regular opening, unauthorized opening). (Regardless of the type), it is possible to prevent unauthorized opening (see, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-152297).

However, the conventional example having such a configuration has the following problems.
That is, in the above-described pachinko machine, for example, the locking pin that constitutes the sealing mechanism is skillfully destroyed, the substrate case is illegally opened and the control board is illegally operated, and then the broken locking pin is destroyed. There is a risk that it will be returned to the sealing mechanism as if it were not done. In such a case, there is a problem that it is difficult to find an improper trace to the sealing mechanism, and the discovery of the illegal opening of the substrate case is delayed.

  In addition, there is a possibility that the connecting part is cut by the fraudulent person and the substrate case is illegally opened, and the cut sealing mechanism is rearranged after the control board is cheated. In this case, there is a problem that it is difficult to find the cutting trace of the connecting portion, and the discovery of unauthorized opening of the substrate case is delayed.

  As described above, game hall personnel and the like have to make a detailed visual check etc. on both the sealing mechanism and the connecting part, so it is not only troublesome to find traces of fraud on the board case. There is a possibility that the unauthorized opening of the substrate case may be overlooked, and the fraudulent act cannot be reduced.

  The following invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a gaming machine that can easily find fraudulent traces for a sealing mechanism and a connecting portion, and that can reduce fraud. .

An optical transmission member in which incidence of light on the sealing means is reduced in a state where
A gaming machine characterized by comprising:

  According to the gaming machine described in (B0), since the light emitted from the emission end side of the light transmission member is incident on the sealing means in a normal state where the cut portion is not cut, the sealing is performed. For example, when the means is an optical member that diffuses incident light inside and emits the light from the outer peripheral surface, the sealing means emits light, and not the part to be cut but the person concerned with the game hall can be focused on the sealing means. The sealing means can be visually confirmed in a bright and easy-to-see state, and it is easy to confirm whether the sealing means is fraudulent.

  On the other hand, in the post-cutting state of the part to be cut, the amount of light emitted from the sealing means is reduced, so that it is possible to inform the game hall officials that the part to be cut has been cut.

  In addition, when the sealing means is an optical member in which incident light propagates in the incident direction, for example, when the fraudster cuts the sealing member instead of the cut portion or makes a cut, the portion emits light. Therefore, it is easy to find an illegal cutting action on the sealing means. In addition, when a fraudulent person cuts a part to be cut, it is easy to find a fraudulent action by light emission from the part to be cut or the cut end part of the optical transmission member.

  Therefore, it is possible to provide a gaming machine that can easily find fraudulent traces with respect to the sealing means or the connecting portion and reduce fraudulent acts.

(B1) In the gaming machine according to (B0),
The optical transmission member is provided from the first member or the second member to the sealing means so as to pass at least the inside of the cut portion,
A biasing means for biasing the cut end portion of the light transmission member cut along with the cut portion of the cut portion to be pulled inward from the cut surface of the cut portion,
In a normal state where the cut portion is not cut, the sealing means emits light emitted from the emission end side of the light transmission member,
In the after-cutting state of the cut portion, the cut portion emits light by the light emitted from the cut end portion of the light transmission member that is drawn.

  According to the gaming machine described in (B1), in a normal state where the cut site is not cut, the sealing unit emits light emitted from the emission end side of the light transmission member. It is possible to draw attention to a person involved in a game hall, etc., without fail, and to visually check the sealing means in a bright and easy-to-see state, and to easily check whether the sealing means is fraudulent.

  On the other hand, in the state after the cut of the cut portion, the cut portion emits light by the light emitted from the cut end portion of the optical transmission member that has been pulled in. I can inform you. Further, after the connecting part is cut by the fraudulent person and the coupled state between the first member and the second member is released and the cheating is performed, the cut connecting part may be rearranged to the original position. However, the part to be cut is conspicuous due to diffused reflection of light, and it is easy to find a trace of destruction on the connecting part.

  In addition, since the cut end portion of the cut light transmission member is drawn inward from the cut surface of the cut portion, it becomes difficult to access the cut end portion, and the cut end portion of the light transmission member is illegally Reconnecting can be reduced.

  As described above, it is possible to have the game party concerned look closely at the sealing means before cutting the cut site and the cut site after cutting the cut site, and before and after cutting the cut site. Notification according to the later time can be performed.

  Therefore, it is possible to provide a gaming machine that can easily find fraudulent traces with respect to the sealing means and the connecting portion and reduce fraudulent acts.

(B2) In the gaming machine according to (B1),
The sealing means includes
A sealed portion having a locking hole formed in communication with a predetermined portion in a coupled state of the first member and the second member;
A locking member having an insertion locking portion that is inserted into and locked in the locking hole of the sealed portion and a head portion that is positioned on the rear end side of the insertion locking portion;
In a state where the locking member is inserted and locked in the locking hole of the sealed portion, the portion of the head of the locking member in the sealed portion is filled and cured. A light transmissive cured resin;
With
The light transmission member is disposed so as to introduce light emitted from the emission end side thereof into the cured resin,
In a normal state in which the portion to be cut is not cut, light emitted from the emission end side of the light transmission member is incident on the cured resin in the sealing means.

  According to the gaming machine described in (B2), in a normal state where the cut site is not cut, the light emitted from the emission end side of the light transmission member is incident on the cured resin of the sealing means. When this incident light is diffused by the light diffusing particles in the cured resin and emitted to the outside, the cured resin emits light uniformly, and the cured resin of the sealing means can be visually confirmed in a bright and easy-to-see state. It is easy to confirm the presence or absence of fraud with respect to the cured resin filled in the portion of the head of the stop member. In addition, when the cured resin does not contain light diffusing particles, if the cured resin is cut or cut at the sealed portion of the sealing means, light is removed from the cut portion or the cut portion of the cured resin. Since the light is emitted, the shaved part and the cut part are conspicuous by light emission, and it is easy to find a trace of destruction on the cured resin.

  Furthermore, at least light from the emission end side of the light transmission member reaches the inside of the cured resin (only when it does not include light diffusing particles) among the predetermined portions in contact with the cured resin in the sealed portion. You may make it provide a light absorption member (For example, a filter, a film, a sheet | seat, a light absorption layer, etc. which absorb visible light) in a location. In this case, the light from the emission end side of the light transmission member is incident on the inside of the cured resin (only when light diffusion particles are not included), but is absorbed by the light absorbing member and the cured resin emits light. However, when the cured resin is cut or cut, light is emitted from the cut portion or cut portion of the cured resin. In other words, when a cured resin that does not normally emit light is scraped or cut, the shaved part or the cut part emits light, making it particularly noticeable and making it easier to find a trace of breakage in the cured resin.

(B3) In the gaming machine according to (B2),
The head portion of the locking member includes a fragile portion that is easily separated from the head portion,
The fragile portion is bonded to the sealed portion by the cured resin.

  According to the gaming machine described in the above (B3), the weak part of the head of the locking member is easily separated and is bonded to the sealed part with the cured resin. If a fraudster tries to scrape off the surrounding cured resin, the fragile portion is also removed together with the cured resin removed. Even if the fragile portion thus removed is returned to the sealed portion as it was, the boundary surface between the returned fragile portion and the head is conspicuous due to irregular reflection of light, and it is easy to find a trace of destruction on the locking member.

(B4) In the gaming machine according to any one of (B1) to (B3),
In the post-cutting state of the cut part, the cutting notification display part, which is a predetermined part in the first member or the second member, where the cut end part of the drawn optical transmission member is located emits light. A featured gaming machine.

  According to the gaming machine described in (B4) above, in the state after the cut of the part to be cut, the cutting notification display part in the first member or the second member where the cut end part of the optical transmission member that is pulled in is located Since the cut-off notification display location is lit, it is possible to clearly notify the game hall personnel and the like of the disconnection of the connecting portion. Further, since the cut end portion of the cut light transmission member is drawn inward from the cut surface of the cut portion and is located at the cut notification display portion, it becomes difficult to access the cut end portion. Incorrectly reconnecting the cut end portion of the optical transmission member can be reduced.

(B5) In the gaming machine according to (B2),
The sealed portion further includes a fragile portion that protrudes from an inner peripheral portion on the opening side of the locking hole and is bonded to the head portion of the locking member by the cured resin. A gaming machine.

  According to the gaming machine described in (B5), since the locking hole of the sealed portion includes the fragile portion bonded to the head of the locking member by the cured resin, the cured resin of the sealing means If an attempt is made to remove the fragile material using an unauthorized thin member, the fragile portion of the sealed portion is destroyed along with the unauthorized removal of the cured resin, and the fragile portion is removed together with the removed cured resin. Even if the fragile portion thus removed is returned to the sealed portion as it was, the boundary surface between the returned fragile portion and the head is conspicuous due to irregular reflection of light, and it is easy to find a trace of destruction on the locking member.
