It is configured to be a stepped part that is recessed forward by the formed parallel part.

  According to the present invention, since the game board can be constituted by the front panel and the spacer member attached to the back side thereof, the front panel can be reduced in weight by reducing the thickness. Therefore, a panel member to be handled when a through part mounting opening for attaching a penetrating part such as a center accessory, a lamp decoration, or a prize opening component member is formed on the front panel by router processing or a panel part such as an obstruction nail is attached. This reduces the weight and facilitates handling in the assembly process.

  Further, according to the present invention, since the alignment portion (notch, stepped portion formed so as to be recessed forward, another member for fitting, etc.) is provided on the spacer member side, The advantage that it is not necessary to perform these processes also occurs, which not only facilitates handling but also contributes to simplification of the process.

  And the gaming board back side spacer member of the present invention that exhibits such an effect corresponds to the front surface that is penetrated in the same shape as the through part mounting opening at the position overlapping the through part mounting opening of the front panel of the main body in front view. Since the opening is formed, the technology cultivated in the conventional plywood game board can be applied to the structure of the attachment part to the game board such as the center accessory, the lamp decoration and the prize opening component member. In addition, the main body part is provided with an alignment part (notch, stepped part formed so as to be depressed forward, another member for fitting, etc.), and the game board is attached to the opening part of the game board mounting frame. Since the position can be aligned at this time, the technology cultivated in the conventional plywood game board can be applied to the game board mounting frame.

  By providing the configuration (1) to (3) in the game board back surface side spacer member of the present invention, the spacer member itself can be reduced in weight, and the weight of the game board attached to the front panel can be reduced. This is because the handling in the process after attaching the spacer member can be facilitated. And while reducing the weight of the spacer member in this way, the strength of the spacer member itself can be sufficiently satisfied, and no new problem due to the weight reduction is caused. The peripheral wall portion, the opening peripheral wall portion, and the grid-like rib may be configured to extend forward from the flat plate portion, may be configured to extend rearward from the flat plate portion, and further, the front of the flat plate portion. It can also be configured to extend backwards. Moreover, in the structure which has a flat plate part in the back side, it can also be set as the structure which integrated the said flat plate part with the back unit.

Here, the weight-reduced game board back surface side spacer member of the present invention can further include the following configuration.
(4) The flat plate portion has a positioning protrusion that protrudes forward so as to be fitted in an alignment hole formed on the front panel side at a position hidden behind the front panel in a front view. Front non-corresponding opening penetrated so as not to overlap with the through-part mounting opening, and an assembly member insertion hole for inserting the assembly member of the part when attaching the part from the front or back side of the front panel And an opening peripheral wall portion erected in the same direction and in the same direction as the peripheral wall portion at the edge of the front non-corresponding opening. The flat plate portion is integrally formed with the flat plate portion so as to communicate with the opening peripheral wall portion, and includes a cylindrical portion inflating a part of the grid-like rib, and a through-hole penetrating in the front-rear direction is formed in the cylindrical portion, The alignment part is the front of the flat plate part. In this case, a part of the peripheral part is formed to have a shape that is notched with respect to the outer shape of the front panel, and the flat plate part is recessed from the front panel in the front view shape. A parallel part formed outward from the peripheral wall part in parallel with the flat plate part is provided for at least a part of the position.

  In the game board back surface side spacer member of the present invention, the structure of (4) is provided, and in the front view, a part of the peripheral part is a flat plate part having a part cut out with respect to the outer shape of the front panel. As a whole plate-like member for constituting the game board when attached to the back surface of the front panel, a stepped portion recessed from the back surface side can be formed. Therefore, an alignment portion for positioning with the game board mounting frame can be easily formed by this step portion. Here, the parallel portion may be formed so as to be hidden behind the front panel in a front view shape with respect to the portion constituting the alignment step. Further, the parallel part may be formed without relation to the alignment part, and may be provided with a screw insertion hole for fastening the front panel and the spacer member to make it easy to tighten. Moreover, since the flat plate portion is provided with alignment protrusions, alignment can be performed accurately when attaching to the front panel. And parts that have been conventionally attached from the front or back of the game board by an assembly member such as a nail, a screw, or a snap member are also formed in the nail hole and screw formed in the front panel through the assembly member insertion hole. Assembling work can be carried out in the same manner as in the prior art by accurately driving into a hole, a recess for snap fitting, etc., screwing in or pushing in accurately. In addition, the through hole of the cylindrical part formed in a part of the grid-like rib can be used as a screw hole when attaching the back unit etc., and since the through hole is formed in the cylindrical part supported by the rib, the spacer Even if the member has a box frame shape combining thin plates, the screw can be firmly screwed as a screw hole. Furthermore, by providing a front non-corresponding opening on the spacer member side, it is possible to apply a conventional technique such as attaching a substrate or other components to the back surface of the front panel as it is, and to provide a recess for attaching these substrates or other components. There is no need to process the front panel formed of a synthetic resin plate. The assembly member insertion hole may also be formed in the parallel portion.

[3 Details of game board components]
As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the game board constituting member 3 includes a front panel 30 and a spacer member 50 attached to the back side of the front panel 30, and the back unit constituting member 4 is attached to the back side thereof. It has a structure. The front panel 30, the spacer member 50, the back unit constituting member 4, and the board surface parts (the left frame decoration part 21, the upper frame decoration part 22, the right frame decoration part 23, and the inner parts constituting the guide rail 20 attached to the board surface. The rails 24) are also all made of synthetic resin. Note that a game board specifying member 80 having a shape that fits into the game board specifying recess formed in the middle frame B is detachably attached to the lower left corner of the spacer member 50 from the back side.

  In this embodiment, as the front panel 30, a single-layer extruded plate made of a low foaming resin having a thickness of 10 mm manufactured by the single-layer extrusion previously proposed by the applicant of the present invention in JP-A-2007-135920 is cut. Etc. are used.

  As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the front panel 30 is cut out from the low-foaming synthetic resin single-layer extruded plate into a predetermined outer shape, and further penetrated parts such as a center accessory, a lamp decoration, and a winning opening component member. When the through-part mounting openings 41a to 41g formed for mounting the base plate are cut out by router processing, and the panel surface component mounting holes 42 for mounting the panel surface components such as the guide rails and the spacer member 50 are mounted from the back surface The positioning hole 43 is formed by drilling. In addition, as the through holes, an out port opening 45, a game board specific member fitting opening 46, and the like are also formed by router processing. In addition, nail holes and screw holes are punched or drilled as necessary.

  As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the spacer member 50 is a synthetic resin injection-molded product, and when viewed from the front side of the front panel 30 when attached to the back side of the front panel 30, a flat plate portion 51 having a front view shape and a flat plate A peripheral wall portion 52 erected forward from the outer peripheral edge of the portion 51 and a parallel portion 53 bent outward from the front end face of the peripheral wall portion 52 in parallel with the flat plate portion 51 are integrally molded. Yes.

  At the time of this synthetic resin injection molding, the flat plate portion 51 has a position where it overlaps with the through-part mounting openings 41a to 41g of the front panel 30 in a front view in a state where the spacer member 50 is mounted on the back side of the front panel 30. The front corresponding openings 61a to 61g penetrating in the same shape as the through-part mounting openings 41a to 41g are in a state of penetrating.

  Further, the flat plate portion 51 is fitted in the alignment hole 43 on the front panel 30 side at a position hidden behind the front panel 30 in a front view when the spacer member 50 is attached to the back side of the front panel 30. An alignment protrusion 63 protruding forward is formed by integral molding. Furthermore, the front non-corresponding openings 62a and 62b that are penetrated so as not to overlap with the through-part mounting openings 41a to 41g on the front panel 30 side are also formed by integral molding. The parallel portion 53 is integrally molded with a screw insertion hole formed so as to coincide with the screw hole on the back surface side of the front panel 30. Further, when the component is attached from the front or back side of the front panel 30, the assembly member insertion hole 65 for inserting the assembly member of the component is formed with respect to the flat plate portion 51 and the parallel portion 53 during integral molding. Is formed.

Furthermore, opening peripheral wall portions 54a to 54g, 55a and 55b which are erected forward from the outer peripheral edges of the front surface corresponding openings 61a to 61g and the front surface non-corresponding openings 62a and 62b at the same height as the peripheral wall portion 52, and the peripheral wall portions A grid-like rib 56 erected forward at the same height as the peripheral wall portion 52 is integrally formed so as to communicate between the peripheral wall portion 52 and the opening peripheral wall portions 54a to 54g, 55a, 55b. The grid-like rib 56 is provided with a cylindrical portion 57 formed so as to partially swell in the lateral direction, and a through-hole 66 penetrating the center of the cylindrical portion 57 in the front-rear direction is formed . Through hole 66 of this cylindrical portion 57 can be used as screw holes for attaching the back units and the like, since the through hole 66 is formed in a cylindrical portion 57 which is supported by the ribs 56, thin spacer member 50 Even if it is a box frame shape that combines the two, it is possible to screw the screws firmly as screw holes. Further, the assembly member insertion hole 65 formed in the flat plate part 51 is provided with an insertion hole peripheral wall part 65a similar to the opening peripheral wall part 54a and the like. The insertion hole peripheral wall portion 65a is formed such that a part of the grid-like rib 56 is cylindrical, is in contact with the peripheral wall 52, the opening peripheral wall 54a, or the like, or is in communication with the grid-like rib 56 by the connecting rib 56a. Is formed.

  The front opening 30 of the front panel 30 overlaps the lower center notch 58 of the spacer member 50, and the game board specific member fitting opening 46 overlaps the lower left corner cutout 59 of the spacer member 50. .

  The front panel 30 and the spacer member 50 are aligned so as to overlap with each other as shown in FIG. 10, and are fixed with screws. When the front panel 30 having a thickness of 10 mm and the spacer member 50 having a thickness of 9 mm are attached to the opening of the middle frame B, the same thickness as a conventional plywood game board can be secured. it can. In addition, the thickness of the spacer member 50 is set according to the thickness of the front panel 30, and if the front panel 30 is thicker, the thickness of the spacer member 50 is made smaller accordingly. In a state where the spacer member 50 is attached to the back surface of the front panel 30, the thickness from the front surface of the front panel 30 to the back surface of the spacer member 50 at the peripheral edge portion is formed in the opening for mounting the game board in the middle frame B. The dimensions of the front panel 30 and the spacer member 50 may be set so that the thickness corresponds to the groove width of the game board mounting groove.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, the game board component 3 is penetrated in the same shape at the position overlapping the spacer member 50 with the through-part mounting openings 41a to 41g of the front panel 30 in front view. Since the front-corresponding openings 61a to 61g are formed, the structure cultivated in the conventional plywood game board is applied to the structure of the attachment part to the game board, such as the center accessory, lamp decoration, and prize opening component members. be able to.

  In addition, a notch shape of the edge of the main body of the spacer member 50 and a stepped portion formed from the back formed by the flat plate portion 53 are provided, and alignment and back unit configuration when attaching the game board to the opening of the middle frame B Since it is configured so that it can be aligned when the member 4 is attached, the technology cultivated in the conventional plywood game board can be applied to the attachment work to the game board mounting frame and the back unit attachment work. it can.

  In addition, the spacer member 50 can be accurately aligned and attached to the front panel 30, and the parts conventionally attached to the back side of the game board are also the front non-corresponding openings 62a and 62b and the set of the spacer member 50. It can be attached from the back side through the attachment member insertion hole 65, and the conventional technology can be used as it is for the configuration other than the game board.

  Furthermore, by providing the front non-corresponding openings 62a and 62b on the spacer member 50 side, it is possible to apply the conventional technique of attaching the substrate and other components to the back surface of the front panel 30 as they are, and to install these substrates and other components. There is no need to router the front panel 30 formed of a synthetic resin plate with a recess for attachment.

  In addition, as a result of supplementing the thickness necessary for attachment to the middle frame B with the spacer member 50, the front panel 30 can be thinned, and handling in a process such as component attachment to the front panel 30 is facilitated. And even if it is the thin front panel 30 which exhibits such an effect, attachment is possible, without adding a hand to the structure of the middle frame B, and the structure of a game board mounting frame also in the game board made from a synthetic resin Can be used as they are, and various techniques cultivated with a plywood game board can be applied.

  Further, since the spacer member 50 is configured in a box frame shape including the flat plate portion 51, the peripheral wall portion 52, the parallel portion 53, the opening peripheral wall portions 54a to 54g, 55a, 55b, and the grid-like ribs 56, the spacer member 50 is also configured. Weight reduction can be achieved, and weight reduction in a state where the spacer member 50 is attached to the front panel 30 can be achieved. Further, a step portion for positioning with the middle frame B and the back unit constituting member 4 can also be formed by the parallel portion 53 on the front end side of the peripheral wall portion in the integral molding of the spacer member 50, and this kind of step portion is processed by a router. You can also eliminate the need to do.

  Further, the strength of the spacer member 50 is ensured by the grid-like ribs 56, and the through hole 66 formed by forming the through hole in the cylindrical portion 57 is provided. Therefore, as a screw hole for attaching the back unit or the like Can be used. And since the said through-hole 66 is formed in the cylindrical part 57 supported by the rib, even if it has the box frame shape which combined the spacer member 50 with the thin plate, it is screwing together firmly as a screw hole. It is possible. In addition, parts that have been conventionally attached from the front or back side of the game board by an assembly member such as a nail, a screw, or a snap member are also formed in the nail hole formed in the front panel 30 through the assembly member insertion hole 65. Assembling work can be performed in the same manner as in the prior art by accurately driving, screwing or pushing into a screw hole, a recess for snap fitting, etc. (board surface component mounting hole 42 in this embodiment). At this time, since the through hole peripheral wall portion 65a is integrally formed in the assembly member insertion hole 65 formed in the flat plate portion 51, the assembly member on the front panel 30 side becomes a guide when the assembly member is inserted. In addition to being able to guide smoothly to the assembly portion (board surface component mounting hole 42), the strength of the flat plate portion 51 is further increased.

  The spacer member 50 has a structure in which the peripheral wall portion 52, the opening peripheral wall 54 a and the like and the ribs 56 are orthogonal to the flat plate portion 51 and the parallel portion 53, and the through hole is also extracted in a direction orthogonal to the flat plate portion 51. Because of this structure, it is easy to perform die-cutting in injection molding, and there is a feature that equipment and labor are not required for injection molding itself.

  4 and 5, the game board specifying member 80 having a shape that fits into the game board specifying recess formed in the game board mounting frame is provided on the peripheral edge of the main body of the spacer member 50. Since it is structured to be detachably attached by screwing, the game board approved for each game board mounting frame can be definitely attached to the correct frame, and by replacing the game board specific member 80, Since the game board can be attached to the game board mounting frame, the spacer member 50 need not be manufactured for each game board mounting frame, and the versatility of the spacer member itself can be improved.

  In addition, since the guide rail 20 attached to the front panel 30 is a synthetic resin molded product, the following effects can also be exhibited. In other words, the metal guide rails that are widely used generally have a force to return the bent metal strip from a bent state to a straight state as a result of bending the metal strip and attaching it to the board surface. In some cases, the thin front panel 30 may be deformed, but by adopting the synthetic resin guide rail 20, such a fear can be eliminated. As a result, the front panel 30 Even if it is easy to handle due to the thinning, it is possible to prevent the deformation over time.

  Here, as shown in FIG. 11 (A), a through hole 92 formed in the front panel 30 as a structure of a synthetic resin board surface component 91 (guide rail, corner decoration, etc.) attached from the front surface of the front panel 30. The boss 93 is inserted into the screw hole 94 and the screw hole 94 formed in the boss 93 is screwed up from the back side of the spacer member 50 and tightened, or as shown in FIG. A protrusion 96 (positioning protrusion or the like) protruding from the front surface of the spacer member 50 is inserted into the through hole 92 of the front panel 30 through which the boss 93 of the panel surface member 91 is inserted, and the back surface of the synthetic resin panel surface component is inserted. The front panel 3 is directly snap-engaged with the projecting boss 93 and the projection 96 (positioning projection or the like) projecting from the front surface of the synthetic resin spacer member 50. The can board part 91 (guide rail, etc. corner decoration) of to synthetic resin as pinched from around the is configured to assembling the spacer member 50 made of synthetic resin. With such a configuration, at least a part of the screw hole for screwing the guide rail and the corner decoration to the front panel 30 and the screw hole for screwing the spacer member 50 to the front panel 30 are provided. Exhibits the effect that these need not be formed. In particular, when the front panel 30 is manufactured using a foamed resin substrate, the reaction force due to the cushioning property caused by the air bubbles inside the front panel 30, the reaction of the synthetic resin board surface parts and spacer members 50 attached to the front and back against the compression and tension. The game board component can be assembled in a state where the foamed resin substrate is firmly sandwiched from the front and the back by the action of the force.

  Thus, according to the present embodiment, even in the game board made of synthetic resin, the configuration of the game board mounting frame can be used as it is, and various techniques cultivated in the game board made of plywood can be applied in various ways. The object of the present application to increase the degree of freedom of game board design while utilizing the technology accumulated from the past can be accurately achieved.

  As mentioned above, although one Example for implementing this invention was described, this invention is not limited to this, The various change in the range which does not deviate from the summary is possible.

  For example, the front panel 30 is formed by cutting an acrylic plate or the like, or by injecting synthetic resin (including low-foaming synthetic resin) into a mold and integrally forming through-part mounting openings 41a to 41g. You may shape | mold by.

  Also, when the spacer member 50 is manufactured by injection molding, the synthetic resin may be a non-foamable resin or a foamable resin.

  Further, the front panel 30 may have a configuration in which the cell is attached to the front surface, or after the ink receiving layer is formed, inkjet printing is performed using UV ink, and a protective coating is applied with a laminate film, or directly by silk printing. It goes without saying that the front panel 30 itself can be decorated by various methods such as printing on the board surface and applying a protective coating.

  The present invention can be used in a pachinko machine.
