JP 2010-167319 A

  However, in such an opening / closing attachment / detachment mechanism, there is a problem that it is necessary to fix the fixed hinge member and the swing hinge member to the game board and the storage frame, respectively. In addition, there is a problem that an operation of swinging in a state of being engaged with the hinge pin at the time of attachment / detachment is necessary.

  The present invention has been made in view of such a problem, and a main object of the present invention is to provide an attachment / detachment mechanism that can be attached in a space-saving manner while reducing labor during attachment / detachment, and a gaming machine having the fixing mechanism. .

  The present invention adopts the following means in order to achieve at least one of the above objects.

The game board fixing mechanism of the present invention,
In the game board fixing mechanism that fixes the game board to the frame,
A key member having a substantially conical shape on one end side and a groove on a side surface;
A main member having an insertion hole into which at least a part of the key member can be inserted;
A fixing member that is disposed on a side surface of the main member and has an engaging portion that can be engaged with the groove when the key member is inserted into the insertion hole;
A regulating member that moves a side surface of the fixing member and restricts the engagement portion from moving in a direction away from the fixing member when the groove portion and the engaging portion are engaged;
It is equipped with.

  In this game board fixing mechanism, when at least a part of the key member is inserted into the insertion hole provided in the main member, the fixing member disposed on the side surface of the main member is inserted into the groove provided in the side surface of the key member. The engaging part engages. At this time, the restricting member moves on the surface of the fixing member, and restricts the engagement portion from moving in a direction away from the fixing member. By doing so, it is possible to prevent the engagement state between the groove portion and the engagement portion from being released with a small movement of moving the regulating member along the surface of the fixing member. In other words, since the key member having the groove portion and the fixing member having the engaging portion can be kept fixed, the key member is inserted into the insertion hole, and the regulating member is moved along the surface of the fixing member. With a small movement, the key member can be fixed to the main member easily and in a space-saving manner.

  In the gaming machine fixing mechanism of the present invention, the engaging portion has a buffer groove in the bottom surface direction of the insertion hole, and is pressed by one end side of the key member when the key member is inserted into the insertion hole. When the width of the buffer groove is narrowed and the groove portion is positioned at an engagement position that can be engaged with the engagement portion, the width of the buffer groove by the key member is restored to engage with the groove portion. It may be a thing. By doing so, since the width of the buffer groove is restored when the key member is fixed, the possibility that the key member falls off the fixing member can be reduced in advance. Thus, since the key member can be fixed to the fixing member by using the restoring force of the buffer groove, no new operation is required to fix the key member to the main shaft, and the key member can be easily attached to the fixing member. Can be fixed. Moreover, since the buffer groove is provided in the opening end direction of the insertion hole, the width of the buffer groove is narrowed when the engaging portion is pressed from the opening end direction, but when pressed from the bottom direction, The width of the buffer groove does not narrow. By doing so, the key member can be fixed to the fixing member by a simple operation of inserting the key member into the insertion hole, and the possibility that the key member inserted into the insertion hole is detached from the insertion hole is obviated. Can be reduced.

  In the gaming board fixing mechanism of the present invention, the restriction member has a protruding portion protruding in the direction of the fixing member, and the fixing member has a U-shape that is open in the same direction as the opening direction of the insertion hole. When the restricting member is positioned at the engagement position, it may have a pressing portion that presses the protruding portion in a direction in which the protruding portion inserted between the U-shapes is detached. In this case, since a force is applied in a direction in which the fixing member having the protruding portion and the regulating member having the pressing portion are separated from each other, the engagement between the fixing member having the engaging portion and the key member having the groove portion is released. The fixing member and the regulating member are pressed in the direction of separating. For this reason, it is possible to reduce the force required to move the restricting member along the surface of the main member in the surface direction of the insertion hole.

  In the gaming board fixing mechanism of the present invention, the main member has a convex portion at an opening end portion of the insertion hole, and the restricting member is engaged with the convex portion so that the restricting member is separated from the main member. You may have a drop-off prevention part which prevents dropping off. In this way, the possibility that the restricting member falls off from the main portion when the protruding portion is pressed by the pressing portion can be reduced by engaging the convex portion with the drop-off preventing portion.

  In the game board fixing mechanism of the present invention, the key member, the main member, the fixing member, and the regulating member may all be made of resin. By doing so, since all the members can be manufactured only by resin molding, the labor at the time of manufacturing can be further reduced as compared with the case where each member is manufactured by a different manufacturing method. In addition, since the buffer groove and the pressing portion are also made of resin, for example, when a resin having higher elasticity than metal is used, the deformation range of the buffer groove and the pressing portion is widened, and a greater effect is expected. be able to.

  The game board fixing mechanism according to the present invention includes inserting the key member fixed to a frame that detachably accommodates the game board at a predetermined position into the fixing member fixed to the game board having a game area. The game board and the frame may be fixed. By doing so, the key member can be fixed to the main member easily and in a space-saving manner by a simple operation of moving the regulating member along the side surface of the fixing member.

  A gaming machine of the present invention includes a gaming board having a gaming area, a frame that detachably accommodates the gaming board at a predetermined position, and any of the gaming board fixing mechanisms described above. Since this gaming machine includes the game board fixing mechanism, the same effect as this, for example, the key member having the groove portion and the fixing member having the engaging portion can be kept fixed. The key member can be fixed to the fixing member by a simple operation of moving along the side surface of the member.

  Next, the configuration of the game board fixing mechanism 10 according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. Here, FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an outline of the configuration of the game board fixing mechanism 10, and FIG. 2 is an exploded view showing an outline of the structure of the game board fixing mechanism 10. As shown in FIG. 2, the game board fixing mechanism 10 includes a main shaft 30 (see FIG. 3) attached to the game board 14, a lock pin 20 inserted into the main shaft 30, and a lock pin 20 inserted into the main shaft 30. And a release ring 50 for restricting movement of the lock spring 42. As shown in FIG. 1, the main shaft in a state where the fixation member 40 and the release ring 50 are integrated. It is fixed by inserting the lock pin 20 into 30.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the lock pin 20 is a substantially conical member formed of synthetic resin, and has a groove-like locking groove 22 surrounding the side surface. Since the outer diameter of the lock pin 20 is substantially the same as the inner diameter of the lock pin insertion hole 32, the lock pin 20 can be inserted into the lock pin insertion hole 32. Further, when the lock pin 20 is inserted into the lock pin insertion hole 32, the locking groove 22 engages with a lock spring 42 described later and fixes the lock pin 20 to the main shaft 30. At this time, since the locking groove 22 has a groove shape surrounding the lock pin 20, the lock pin 20 is positioned at a desired position by a simple operation of inserting the lock pin 20 into the lock pin insertion hole 32. be able to.

  The main shaft 30 is a cylindrical member formed of synthetic resin, and has a lock pin insertion hole 32 into which the lock pin 20 can be inserted at the center, and a convex portion 34 on the opening end side of the lock pin insertion hole 32. Are formed in the lateral direction. The main shaft 30 serves as a guide member for fixing the lock pin 20, and fixes the lock pin 20 in association with the fixing member 40 and the release ring 50 arranged on the side surface side. This convex part 34 engages with a lock spring restricting part 52 described later (see FIG. 3), and reduces the possibility that the release ring 50 will fall off the main shaft 30.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the fixing member 40 is a cylindrical member formed of synthetic resin, and is formed so that the length of the inner diameter of the fixing member 40 and the length of the outer diameter of the main shaft 30 are substantially the same. ing. For this reason, the main shaft 30 can be fitted inside the fixing member 40. The fixing member 40 has three lock springs 42 for fixing the lock pin 20 and three U-shaped pins 44 for pressing a locking claw 54 to be described later. The lock springs 42 and the U-shaped pins 44 that are adjacent to each other, respectively. The fixing members 40 are arranged at equal intervals on the outer peripheral surface. The lock spring 42 includes a lock portion 42a that protrudes toward the inner surface of the fixing member 40, and a swing portion 42b that is connected to the lock portion 42a. A buffer groove 42c is provided between the lock portion 42a and the swing portion 42b. Is provided (see FIG. 3). As shown in FIG. 2, the U-shaped pin 44 is formed in a substantially U shape by a pair of protrusions 44 a connected at one end side. Moreover, when the other end side of the U-shaped pin 44 is pressed in a direction in which the protrusions 44a are separated from each other, the U-shaped pin 44 can move in a direction away from each other with the one end side as a base point. Return.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the release ring 50 is a cylindrical member formed of synthetic resin, and is formed so that the length of the inner diameter of the release ring 50 and the length of the outer diameter of the fixing member 40 are substantially the same. Has been. For this reason, the fixing member 40 can be fitted inside the release ring 50. Locked to the release ring 50 are a lock spring restricting portion 52 that restricts the lock spring 42 from moving in the direction of the release ring 50, a locking claw 54 that prevents the release ring 50 from being detached from the main shaft 30, and a fixing member 40. There are three fixing member restricting portions 56 that restrict movement in the opening direction of the pin insertion hole 32, and the lock spring restricting portion 52, the locking claw 54, and the fixing member restricting portion 56 that are adjacent to each other are released. It arrange | positions at equal intervals on the internal peripheral surface of the ring 50 (refer FIG. 3). Each of the lock spring restricting portion 52 and the fixing member restricting portion 56 is a convex portion extending in the inward direction, and the locking claw 54 is a claw-like member extending in the opening direction of the lock pin insertion hole 32. is there. Here, FIG. 3 is an exploded view showing an outline of the configuration of the game board fixing mechanism 10, and FIG. 3A is a side view showing an outline of the structure of the game board fixing mechanism 10. FIG. FIG. 3B is an exploded cross-sectional view taken along the line AA in FIG.

  Here, the relationship between the game board fixing mechanism 10, the game board 14 and the frame body 16 will be clarified with reference to FIG. 4, and the fixing method for fixing the game board 14 and the frame body 16 with the game board fixing mechanism 10 will be described in detail. To do. Here, FIG. 4 is an explanatory view showing a state in which the gaming board fixing mechanism 10 is used in the gaming machine 12, FIG. 4 (A) is a front view of the gaming machine 12 as viewed from the front, and FIG. FIG. 2 is a side view of the game board 14 and the frame body 16 as viewed from the side. As shown in FIG. 4A, the game board fixing mechanism 10 has a lock pin 20 fixed near the corner of the game board 14. Since this portion is usually a portion that is difficult to see from the front due to the decoration of the game board cover, there is little possibility for the player to draw attention when playing the game. On the other hand, since the main shaft 30 attached to the frame 16 is hidden behind the game board 14 when viewed from the front, the player does not pay attention when playing the game. In this way, by using the game board fixing mechanism 10, the game board 14 can be fixed to the frame body 16 without making the player aware of the fixed part.

  When the game board 14 is attached to the frame 16, as shown in FIG. 4B, the lock pin 20 attached to the game board 14 is inserted into the main shaft 30 in which the frame 16 is embedded from the front. To do. At this time, when the lock pin 20 is inserted into the lock pin insertion hole 32 and positioned, the game board 14 is also positioned at a desired position. For this reason, the labor for positioning the game board 14 at a desired position can be reduced while reducing the labor for attaching the game board 14 to the frame 16. Note that when the game board 14 is released from the frame body 16, the lock pin 20 may be removed.

  Next, a fixing method for fixing the game board using the game board fixing mechanism 10 of the present embodiment thus configured will be described in more detail with reference to FIGS. Here, FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the movement of the lock spring 42 of the game board fixing mechanism 10, and FIG. 5A shows a state in which the release ring 50 is positioned at a position where the lock spring 42 can move. 5 (B) shows a state in the middle of inserting the lock pin 20 into the lock pin insertion hole 32, and FIG. 5 (C) shows that the locking groove 22 and the lock spring 42 are engaged. FIG. 5D shows a state where the lock pin 20 is restricted by the lock spring restricting portion 52 of the release ring 50. FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the positional relationship between the U-shaped pin 44 of the game board fixing mechanism 10 and the fixing member restricting portion 56. FIG. 6A shows the one end side of the U-shaped pin 44. FIG. 6B shows an open state where one end of the U-shaped pin 44 is closed. In FIGS. 5 and 6, only necessary portions are shown in the drawings for convenience of explanation, and some portions that are not related are omitted.

  When fixing using the game board fixing mechanism 10, as shown in FIG. 5, the release ring 60 is moved along the side surface of the main shaft 30 toward the bottom surface of the lock pin insertion hole 32 (right side in FIG. 5). Then, the release ring 50 is positioned at a position where the lock spring 42 can move (see FIG. 5A). When the release ring 50 is positioned at a position where the lock spring 42 can move, the lock spring restricting portion 52 also moves toward the bottom surface of the lock pin insertion hole 32 as the release ring 50 moves, and the lock spring 42 can move outward. It becomes a state.

  When the lock pin 20 is inserted along the side surface of the lock pin insertion hole 32, one end side of the lock pin 20 comes into contact with the lock portion 42a of the lock spring 42 as shown in FIG. When the lock pin 20 is further inserted into the lock pin insertion hole 32 in this state, the lock portion 42 a is pressed along the inclination of the tip end portion of the lock pin 20. At this time, the swinging portion 42b of the lock spring 42 moves outward, and the buffer groove 42c moves in a narrowing direction. Thus, the lock pin 20 can be inserted by moving the lock portion 42a while rotating.

  At this time, as shown in FIG. 6, as the release ring 50 moves along the side surface of the main shaft 30 toward the bottom surface of the lock pin insertion hole 32, the fixing member restricting portion 56 moves to the opening of the U-shaped pin 44. Get closer. When the release ring 50 is positioned at a position where the lock spring 42 can move, the fixing member restricting portion 56 enters the opening of the U-shaped pin 44 (see FIG. 6A). At this time, since the lateral width of the fixing member restricting portion 56 is formed to be slightly larger than the interval between the pair of protruding portions 44a, when the fixing member restricting portion 56 enters between the pair of protruding portions 44a, the fixing member restricting portion The protrusions 44a are pressed by 56 in a direction away from each other.

  Now, as shown in FIG. 5, when the lock pin 20 is inserted into the lock pin insertion hole 32 and the lock portion 42a moves to a position facing the locking groove 22, the restoring force of the swinging portion 42b and the buffer groove 42c The lock part 42a returns to the original position. At this time, since the locking groove 22 is formed in such a size that the locking portion 42a can be buried, when the locking portion 42a returns to the original position, the locking portion 42a of the locking spring 42 and the locking groove 22 are engaged. (See FIG. 5C). By doing so, the lock pin 20 can be fixed by the lock spring 42. Since the lock spring 42 is provided at a substantially equal position on the outer peripheral position of the fixing member 40, the lock pin 20 can be pressed evenly from the periphery. By doing so, it is possible to reduce the possibility that the lock pin 20 is pressed by the lock spring 42 to change the traveling direction and the lock pin 20 collides with the side surface of the lock pin insertion hole 32 and is damaged.

  Next, when the release ring 50 is released to be freely movable, the release ring 50 is opened along the side surface of the main shaft 30 by the restoring force of the U-shaped pin 44 (FIG. 5). The lock spring restricting portion 52 of the release ring 50 is positioned at a position facing the lock portion 42a (a position corresponding to the engagement position of the present invention) (FIGS. 5D and 6D). B)). By doing so, the movement of the lock spring 42 in the direction away from the lock pin insertion hole 32 can be restricted. In other words, the possibility that the lock pin 20 is detached from the lock pin insertion hole 32 can be reduced in advance. At this time, the locking claw 54 provided on the release ring 50 comes into contact with the convex portion 34 provided on the main shaft 30, and the movement of the release ring 50 toward the bottom surface of the lock pin insertion hole 32 from the release position is restricted. (See FIG. 6B). For this reason, it is possible to prevent the release ring 50 from being detached from the main shaft 30 in advance.

  On the other hand, when removing the lock pin 20 from the fixing member 40, an operation opposite to that for fixing may be performed. Specifically, the release ring 50 is moved along the side surface of the main shaft 30 toward the bottom surface of the lock pin insertion hole 32 and positioned at a position where the lock spring 42 can move. At this time, since the engagement between the lock portion 42a and the locking groove 22 can be released, the lock pin 20 is moved in the opening direction of the lock pin insertion hole 32, so that the lock pin 20 is moved into the lock pin insertion hole. 32 can be detached. If the release ring 50 is opened after the lock pin 20 is removed from the lock pin insertion hole 32 so as to be freely movable, the restoring force of the U-shaped pin 44 locks the lock spring restricting portion 52 of the release ring 50. It will be positioned in the position facing the part 42a.

  According to the game board fixing mechanism 10 as an example of the embodiment of the present invention described in detail above, when the lock pin 20 is inserted into the lock pin insertion hole 32 provided in the main shaft 30, The lock spring 42 of the fixing member 40 disposed on the side surface of the main shaft 30 engages with the provided locking groove 22. At this time, the engagement state between the locking groove 22 and the lock spring 42 is released to restrict the release ring 50 from moving along the side surface of the fixing member 40 and moving the lock spring 42 away from the fixing member 40. Can be prevented in advance. In other words, since the lock pin 20 having the locking groove 22 and the fixing member 40 having the lock spring 42 can be kept fixed, a simple operation of inserting the lock pin 20 into the lock pin insertion hole 32 The lock pin 20 can be fixed to the main shaft 30.

  Further, when the lock pin 20 is inserted into the lock pin insertion hole 32, the swinging part 42 b moves outward and the buffer groove 42 c is narrow so that the lock pin 20 can be inserted into the lock pin insertion hole 32. When the lock pin 20 is inserted to a predetermined position, the swinging portion 42b and the buffer groove 42c are restored, and the lock portion 42a and the locking groove 22 are engaged. Thus, since the lock pin 20 is fixed to the main shaft 30 by the restoring force of the swinging portion 42b and the buffer groove 42c, no new operation is required when fixing the lock pin 20, and the main shaft 30 can be easily operated. The lock pin 20 can be fixed.

  Further, when the release ring 50 is positioned at the open position, the fixing member restricting portion 56 provided on the inner side of the release ring 50 moves in a direction in which the protruding portions 44a of the U-shaped pins 44 provided on the fixing member 40 move away from each other. Inserted. For this reason, the release ring 50 is pressed in a direction away from the U-shaped pin 44 due to the restoring force of the U-shaped pin 44, thereby reducing the labor when moving the released ring 50 along the surface of the main shaft 30. Can be made.

  Furthermore, the main shaft 30 is provided with a convex portion 34, and when the release ring 50 is positioned at the fixed position, the main shaft 30 engages with a locking claw 54 provided on the release ring 50. The possibility of 50 falling off the main shaft 30 can be reduced in advance.

  Since all of the lock pin 20, the main shaft 30, the fixing member 40, and the release ring 50 are made of resin, it is possible to reduce labor during manufacturing compared to a case where the lock pin 20, the main shaft 30, the fixing member 40, and the release ring 50 are made of different materials. In this case, since the buffer groove 42c and the U-shaped pin 44 are also made of resin, for example, when a resin having higher elasticity than that of metal is used, the buffer groove 42c and the U-shaped pin 44 are deformed. The deformation range to be widened is more effective than the case of metal.

  It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and it goes without saying that the present invention can be implemented in various modes as long as it belongs to the technical scope of the present invention.

  For example, in the above-described embodiment, the lock pin 20 is fixed near the corner of the game board 14 and the main shaft 30 is fixed to the frame body 16, but the release ring 50 is fixed to the frame body 16. Also good. In this manner, when the lock board 20 is moved together with the game board 14 in the direction of opening the lock pin insertion hole 32 when the game board 14 is removed from the frame, the main shaft 30 also moves in the same direction as the lock pin 20 moves. It will be. By doing so, the release ring 50 relatively moves in the direction of the bottom surface of the lock pin insertion hole 32, so that the release ring 50 is positioned at a position where the lock spring 42 can move. For this reason, the fixed state can be released by a simple operation of moving the game board 14. Further, since it is not necessary to move the release ring 50, the game board fixing mechanism 10 can be arranged at a position where the release ring 50 cannot be operated. In other words, the degree of freedom of arrangement of the game board fixing mechanism 10 can be improved.

  In the embodiment described above, the main shaft 30 is fixed near the corner of the game board 14 and the lock pin 20 is fixed to the frame 16. However, the lock pin 20 is fixed near the corner of the game board 14. The main shaft 30 may be fixed to the frame body 16. Also in this case, the same effect as the above-described embodiment can be obtained.

  In the embodiment described above, the lock pin 20 is fixed near the corner of the game board 14. However, the game board 14 has a through-hole through which a part of the lock pin 20 can pass, and the frame 16. The game board 14 may be fixed to the frame body so that the game board 14 is sandwiched between the lock pin 20 inserted into the through hole. In this way, the labor for fixing the lock pin 20 to the game board 14 can be reduced.

  In the embodiment described above, the game board fixing mechanism 10 is made of resin, but the game board fixing mechanism 10 may be made of metal. Also in this case, the same effect as the above-described embodiment can be obtained.

  As shown in the above-described embodiment, it can be used as a fixing mechanism for fixing the gaming machine field, in particular, the game board to the frame.
