It is possible to prevent the joint portion or the like from being inserted and the joint portion from being pry open. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent an unauthorized act of performing unauthorized processing on the control circuit board from the gap that has been opened.

  The box lid 42 is formed in a substantially hollow box-like body with a transparent synthetic resin material or the like, similar to the box body 41, and is a control ROM provided on the control circuit board in the board box 40. The model number can be easily confirmed. For this reason, when an illegal act of changing the game content of the pachinko machine 55 by exchanging the control ROM, this can be easily detected. Further, four sealing members 30 of the sealing tool 1 described later are attached at substantially equal intervals on the side wall 42a of the box lid 42 and outside the side wall 42a (on the right front side in FIG. 2). Four sealing members 30 are also arranged on each of the side walls facing the side walls 42a and the outside of the side walls 42b connecting these side walls (see FIG. 1). In addition, as a material of the box lid body 42, polycarbonate resin, ABS resin, or the like is used, and those obtained by applying antistatic treatment to these resins may be used.

  A fitting convex portion 60 of the fitting member 2 described later is attached to the side wall 42c of the box lid body 42 on the outer side (left front side in FIG. 2) of the side wall 42c (see FIG. 2). Two fitting protrusions 60 are attached to the side wall 42c at a predetermined interval (see FIG. 1). The sealing members 30 and the fitting convex portions 60 of the box lid body 42 are respectively matched with the sealing devices 20 and the case 50 of the box body 41 when the box lid body 42 is put on the box body 41. In addition, the box body 41 is disposed at a position corresponding to each sealing tool 20 and the case 50. Further, a shielding plate 46 is erected on the inner wall of the box lid 42 at a joint portion with the box main body 41, and the guide plate described above is provided between the shielding plate 46 and the side walls 42a, 42b. An insertion recess 44 into which 43 is inserted is provided. Therefore, when the box lid 42 is put on the box body 41, the guide plate 43 of the box body 41 is inserted into the insertion recess 44, and a thin plate-like tool or the like is prevented from being inserted into the joint portion. Is done.

  Moreover, the sealing members 20 and 30 of the sealing tool 1 and the case 50 and the fitting convex portion 60 of the fitting member 2 are outside the joint portion between the box body 41 and the box lid body 42 as described above. In other words, the control circuit board is disposed on the opposite side of the storage section in which the control circuit board is stored.

Therefore, even after the sealing member 30 and the fitting convex portion 60 are cut and removed from the box lid body 42, the control circuit board can be encapsulated and sealed by the box lid body 42 and the box body 41. .

  Next, each member which comprises the sealing tool 1 is demonstrated with reference to FIGS. FIG. 3 is a partial cross-sectional perspective view of each member constituting the sealing tool 1, and FIG. 4 is a seal showing a state in which the sealing fitting 11 is held by the holding portion H formed by the sealing members 20 and 30. FIG. 5 is a partial cross-sectional view of the tool 1, and FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the sealing tool 1 includes a sealing metal fitting 11 for sealing the substrate box 40, a sealing member 20 to which the sealing metal fitting 11 is locked, and a box cover body facing the sealing member 20. And a sealing member 30 which is disposed on 42 and to which the sealing metal fitting 11 is engaged. In addition, since each sealing metal fitting 11 and each sealing member 20 and 30 are each comprised substantially the same, below, the same number is attached | subjected to the same part and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the sealing metal fitting 11 is for connecting the sealing members 20 and 30 and is made of a metal material such as a stainless steel material. Is formed. The sealing metal fitting 11 includes a plate portion 11a inserted into the sealing member 20, and a head portion 11b formed integrally with the plate portion 11a and engaged with a sealing member 30 described later.

  A locking claw 11c extending in a substantially square shape toward the outside is provided at approximately the center in the longitudinal direction (vertical direction in FIG. 3) of the plate portion 11a. When the plate portion 11a of the sealing metal fitting 11 is inserted into and inserted into the insertion hole 30c of the sealing member 30, this locking claw 11c is pressed toward the plate portion 11a by the insertion hole 30c and gradually elastically deforms, and further inserted. If it continues, the latching claw 11c will be elastically restored and latched by the latching surface 30d of the sealing member 30, and the holding | maintenance formed by the insertion hole 20a of the sealing member 20 and the latching surface 30d of the sealing member 30 will be shown. It is stored in the part H (see FIG. 4). On the other hand, the head portion 11 b of the sealing fitting 11 is held in the engagement hole 30 a of the sealing member 30, and the sealing fitting 11 can be held in the sealing member 30 in a non-removable state.

  Further, when the sealing metal fitting 11 holding the locking claw 11c held by the holding portion H is pushed downward (downward in FIG. 4), the locking claw 11c is pressed toward the plate portion 11a by the insertion hole 20a and gradually elastic. While being deformed, it is inserted into the internal space 20 c of the sealing member 20, and then elastically restored and locked to the locking surface 20 b of the sealing member 20. On the other hand, the first engaging portion 11b1 and the second engaging portion 11b2 of the head 11b of the sealing metal fitting 11 are engaged with the first engaging surface 30b1 and the second engaging surface 30b2 of the sealing member 30, respectively. Therefore, the sealing members 20 and 30 are connected in a non-removable state by the sealing metal fitting 11 (see FIG. 5).

  A substantially hemispherical convex portion 11d is provided at the tip of the plate portion 11a so as to protrude to the side opposite to the locking claw 11c. As a result, the bending rigidity of the front end portion of the sealing metal fitting 11 is strengthened, the front end portion of the sealing metal fitting 11 is guided by the convex portion 11d, and the front end portion of the plate portion 11a of the sealing metal fitting 11 is inserted into the sealing member 30 described later. It can be easily inserted into the hole 30c. When the plate portion 11a is inserted into the internal space 20c of the sealing member 20, the convex portion 11d is pressed against the side wall 20d of the internal space 20c, and the plate portion 11a is sealed by the protruding height of the convex portion 11d. 20 and 30 are pushed out to the locking surfaces 20b and 30d (the right side in FIGS. 4 and 5), so that the locking claw 11c can be reliably locked to the locking surfaces 20b and 30d (FIGS. 4 and 5). 5).

  As shown in FIG. 3, a head portion 11 b is formed at the upper end portion in the longitudinal direction of the seal fitting 11. The head portion 11 b is used to reinforce the rigidity of the sealing fitting 11 and to position the sealing member 11 at a predetermined position of the sealing members 20 and 30. The head portion 11b is formed in a hollow, substantially cylindrical body. When the sealing fitting 11 is inserted into the insertion holes 20a and 30c of the sealing members 20 and 30, the sealing fitting is easily pressed by pressing the head portion 11b. 11 can be inserted. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the head portion 11b includes a pair of first engagement portions 11b1 and second engagement portions 11b2, and the first engagement portions 11b1 and the second engagement portions 11b2 are sealed. The sealing members 20 and 30 are connected by engaging the first engaging surface 30b1 and the second engaging surface 30b2 of the member 30, respectively. The first engaging portion 11b1 and the second engaging portion 11b2 are respectively formed on the lower side (lower side in FIG. 3) of the protruding portion where the head portion 11b protrudes in the lateral width direction of the plate portion 11a. The joint portion 11b1 protrudes by M1 from one long side of the plate portion 11a, and the second engagement portion 11b2 protrudes by M2 from the other long side. The protrusion amount M1 from which the first engagement portion 11b1 protrudes from the plate portion 11a is larger than the protrusion amount M2 of the second engagement portion 11b2 (M1> M2).

  As shown in FIG. 3, the engagement hole 30 a of the sealing member 30 that holds the head portion of the sealing metal fitting 11 is a pair of first electrodes facing each other with an interval substantially equal to the lateral width of the head portion 11 b of the sealing metal fitting 11. A vertical wall 30a1 and a second vertical wall 30a2 are provided. The first vertical wall 30a1 is erected with a distance of L1 from one short side of the insertion hole 30c into which the plate portion 11a of the sealing metal fitting 11 is inserted, and the second vertical wall is the other side of the insertion hole 30c. It is erected with a distance of L2 from the short side. Note that the distance L1 at which the first vertical wall 30a1 is separated from the insertion hole 30c is greater than the distance L2 at the second vertical wall 30a2 (L1> L2).

  Here, the distance L1 at which the first vertical wall 30a1 is separated from the insertion hole 30c is substantially equal to or slightly larger than the protrusion amount M1 at which the first coupling portion 11b1 of the sealing metal fitting 11 protrudes from the plate portion 11a. The distance L2 of the second vertical wall 30a2 is substantially equal to or slightly larger than the protrusion amount M2 of the second coupling portion 11b2 (M2 ≦ L2). The separation amount L2 of the second vertical wall 30a2 is smaller than the protrusion amount M1 of the first coupling portion 11b1 (L2 <M2). That is, each relationship between the separation amount and the protrusion amount is M2 ≦ L2 <M1 ≦ L1.

  Therefore, when the sealing metal fitting 11 is inserted into the sealing member 30 in the direction as shown in FIG. 3 (the direction in which the locking claw 11c protrudes toward the box lid body 42), the first engagement of the head 11b. The portion 11b1 and the second engaging portion 11b2 are not locked to the first vertical wall 30a1 and the second vertical wall 30a2 of the sealing member 30, and the plate portion 11a of the sealing metal fitting 11 is inserted into the insertion hole 30c of the sealing member 30. Can be inserted. On the other hand, when the sealing metal fitting 11 is inserted into the sealing member 30 in the reverse direction (the direction in which the locking claw 11c protrudes to the opposite side of the box lid body 42), the first engaging portion 11b1 of the head 11b is sealed. Since the second vertical wall 30 a 2 of the member 30 is locked, it is prohibited to insert the plate portion 11 a of the sealing metal fitting 11 into the insertion hole 30 c of the sealing member 30. Thus, the sealing metal fitting 11 can be positioned by locking the first engaging portion 11b1 and the second engaging portion 11b2 of the head portion 11b with the first vertical wall 30a1 and the second vertical wall 30a2 of the sealing member 30. it can. Therefore, the operator who seals the board box 40 encapsulating the control circuit board with the sealing metal fitting 11 does not need to confirm whether or not the sealing metal fitting 11 is inserted into the sealing members 20 and 30 in the correct orientation. Therefore, it is possible to improve the work efficiency of the connecting work, and it is possible to prevent the sealing failure of the substrate box 40 caused by the erroneous work in which the sealing metal fitting 11 is inserted in the wrong direction.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the outer diameter of the columnar portion of the head portion 11 b is such that the sealing fitting 11 is pushed into the sealing members 20 and 30 and the locking claw 11 c is engaged with the locking surface 20 b of the sealing member 20. In the stopped state, it is formed so as to be substantially equal to the width of the engagement hole 30a of the sealing member 30 (the horizontal dimension in FIG. 5). Therefore, the locking claw 11 c of the sealing metal fitting 11 is locked to the locking surface 20 b of the sealing member 20, and the first engagement portion 11 b 1 and the second engagement portion 11 b 2 of the head portion 11 b are the first engagement of the sealing member 30. When engaged with the surface 30 b 1 and the second engagement surface 30 b 2, the sealing members 20 and 30 are connected by the sealing metal fitting 11 in a non-removable state. As a result, the substrate box 40 is sealed in an unopenable state.

  The sealing member 20 is disposed on the box body 41 of the substrate box 40 and seals the substrate box 40. The sealing member 20 is formed in a substantially hollow prism shape and is formed integrally with the box body 41. An insertion hole 20 a is formed in the sealing member 20 on the surface facing the sealing member 30 (upper side in FIGS. 3 to 5). The insertion hole 20a is formed so as to be able to communicate with the insertion hole 30c of the sealing member 30, and the plate portion 11a of the sealing metal fitting 11 is inserted therein. The insertion hole 20a is tapered such that the cross-sectional area of the opening portion facing the sealing member 30 is larger than the opening partial cross-sectional area of the opposite surface side, and the insertion hole 20a Between the locking surface 30d of the sealing member 30, a holding portion H that holds the locking claw 11c of the sealing metal fitting 11 is formed. When the locking claw 11 c of the sealing fitting 11 is held by the holding portion H, the head portion 11 b of the sealing fitting 11 may be embedded in the engagement hole 30 a of the sealing member 30 and protrude from the upper surface of the sealing member 30. Absent. Therefore, it is possible to prevent an improper act of grasping the head 11b and pulling out the seal fitting 11 and a situation where the head 11b is caught by something and the seal fitting 11 is dropped. As a result, the spare (unused) sealing metal fitting 11 can be held in the sealing member 30 in an unextractable state without connecting the sealing member 20 and the sealing member 30 (see FIG. 4). .

  Inside the sealing member 20, an internal space 20 c communicating with the insertion hole 20 a is provided. A bottom surface portion 20e is provided on the bottom surface side (lower side of FIGS. 4 and 5) of the internal space 20c, and the sealing metal fitting 11 inserted into the internal space 20c is partitioned from the outside by the bottom surface portion 20e. Yes. Therefore, it is prevented that the sealing metal fitting 11 is pressed and removed from the bottom surface side (the lower side in FIGS. 4 and 5) of the sealing member 20 in the anti-insertion direction (the upper side in FIGS. 4 and 5).

  A locking surface 20b for locking the locking claw 11c of the sealing metal fitting 11 is provided in the upper part of the internal space 20c, and when the sealing metal fitting 11 holding the locking claw 11c is further inserted into the holding portion H. And the latching claw 11c of the sealing metal fitting 11 is latched by the locking surface 20b, and the removal action of the sealing metal fitting 11 is prevented (refer FIG. 5).

  Here, for example, in the case of a configuration in which the locking claw 11c is locked to the locking surface 20b facing the outer side of the box main body 41 and the box lid body 42 (left side in FIGS. 4 and 5), it is sealed. A linear body such as a piano wire is inserted into the skirt portion 30f of the member 30 and the side wall 20d of the sealing member 20 through a drill or the like, and the locking claw 11c is moved to the plate portion 11a side by the linear body. By being pressed, the locking claw 11c is unlocked. Therefore, the sealing metal fitting 11 is removed from the sealing members 20 and 30, and the control board in the board box 40 cannot be reliably sealed. However, in the sealing tool 1 of the present embodiment, the locking surface 20b that locks the locking claw 11c of the sealing metal fitting 11 has a box body 41 side or a box lid 42 side (see FIG. It is formed so as to be arranged on the right side of FIG. That is, the locking surface 20 b that locks the locking claw 11 c is disposed between the box body 41 or the box lid body 42 and the sealing metal fitting 11. Therefore, even when a through hole is drilled in the skirt portion 30f of the sealing member 30 and the side wall 20d of the sealing member 20 by a drill or the like, the locking claw 11c is held by a linear body such as a piano wire inserted through the through hole. Since it cannot press to the board part 11a side, it can prevent that the sealing metal fitting 11 is removed. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent an unauthorized act of performing unauthorized processing on the control circuit board.

  Further, it is naturally impossible to drill a through-hole with a drill or the like from the side from which the locking claw 11c protrudes (the right side in FIGS. 4 and 5) because the box main body 41 and the box lid 42 are obstructed. It is. Furthermore, the sealing members 20 and 30 are arranged in parallel at substantially equal intervals (see FIG. 2), but the adjacent interval between the adjacent sealing members 20 and 30 is extremely small and arranged in parallel. A plate-shaped shielding member 47 is disposed on the side of the sealing members 20 and 30 to prevent the side surfaces of the sealing members 20 and 30 from being exposed. Therefore, it is possible to prevent fraudulent acts from the side (the front side or the back side in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5) with respect to the sealing members 20 and 30 and the sealing fitting 11.

  A fitting groove 20f is linearly recessed on the upper end surface (upper side in FIG. 3) of the sealing member 20, so that the fitting protrusion 30e of the sealing member 30 can be fitted. The fitting protrusion 30e of the sealing member 30 has a tip that is hemispherical in cross-sectional view, and can be easily fitted into the fitting groove 20f. Therefore, by fitting the fitting protrusion 30e into the fitting groove 20f, the positional deviation of the sealing members 20 and 30 can be prevented, and the sealing member 20 and the sealing member 30 can be reliably matched. Further, a tool or the like is inserted between the opposing surfaces of the sealing members 20 and 30 from a gap T, which will be described later, provided on the side of the fitting groove 20f (right side in FIG. 4). It is possible to prevent the locking claw 11c from being released from being locked to the locking surface 30d. Therefore, the sealing fitting 11 that seals the board box 40 is removed by such insertion, and an illegal act of improper processing on the control circuit board can be prevented.

  The sealing member 30 is for sealing the substrate box 40 via the sealing metal fitting 11 and the sealing member 20, and as shown in FIG. 3, the connecting member 31 is attached to the side wall of the box lid 42 of the substrate box 40. It is integrally formed via The sealing member 30 is formed in a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from the front, and an elongated hole-like engagement hole 30a in which the head portion 11b of the sealing metal fitting 11 is embedded and held is formed on the upper end surface (upper side in FIG. 3). It is recessed. An insertion hole 30c is formed at the lower end (lower side in FIG. 3) of the engagement hole 30a. The first engagement surface 30b1 and the second engagement surface are formed at both ends of the insertion hole 30c. 30b2 are arranged in parallel. When the plate portion 11a of the seal fitting 11 is inserted into the insertion hole 30c, the first engagement portion 11b1 and the second engagement portion 11b2 formed on the head portion 11b of the seal fitting 11 are in the first engagement. Since the surface 30b1 and the second engagement surface 30b2 are respectively engaged, the head portion 11b of the seal fitting 11 cannot pass through the insertion hole 30c. Therefore, the head portion 11b of the seal fitting 11 is securely held in the engagement hole 30a.

  The insertion hole 30c is juxtaposed with the first engagement surface 30b1 and the second engagement surface 30b2 at the lower end of the engagement hole 30a, and a pair of first vertical walls 30a1 constituting two side walls of the engagement hole 30a. The second vertical wall 30a2 is disposed so as to be separated from the second vertical wall 30a2 by a predetermined distance (L1, L2). The insertion hole 30 c is a through-hole that is horizontally long in cross-section when the plate portion 11 a of the sealing metal fitting 11 can be inserted, and communicates with the insertion hole 20 a of the sealing member 20. As shown in FIG. 4, the sectional area of the opening portion of the insertion hole 30 c is smaller than the sectional area of the opening portion of the insertion hole 20 a of the sealing member 20. Accordingly, a flat locking surface 30d is formed on the side of the insertion hole 30c (on the right side in FIG. 4), and the locking claw 11c of the sealing metal fitting 11 can be locked by the locking surface. Can be held on the holding portion H in a non-removable manner (see FIG. 4).

  The skirt portion 30f is disposed below the sealing member 30 and has a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from the front. The front surface of the skirt portion 30f (the left front side in FIG. 3) and the cross-sectional longitudinal direction of the insertion hole 30c described above are disposed so as to be substantially parallel to the side wall of the box lid body 42. Therefore, the sealing member 30 can accommodate the flat sealing metal 11 in parallel with the side wall of the box lid body 42, and reduce the dimensions of the sealing members 20 and 30 protruding from the box body 41 and the box lid body 42. be able to. Therefore, the board box 40 can be reduced in size, and it can be prevented that the space for mounting other components is reduced.

  When the sealing member 20 and the sealing member 30 are matched, the seam (opposite surface) portion of the sealing members 20 and 30 and the outer peripheral portion of the sealing member 20 are covered with the skirt portion 30f. Therefore, it is possible to prevent a thin plate-like tool or the like from being inserted into the joint portion of the sealing members 20 and 30 and the joint portion from being pry open. Therefore, the sealing metal fitting 11 that seals the board box 40 is removed by such opening, and an illegal act of improper processing on the control circuit board can be prevented.

  The connecting member 31 is for connecting the sealing member 30 and the box lid 42 respectively. As shown in FIG. 3, the connecting member 31 has one end disposed on one side surface of the sealing member 30 and the other end disposed on the side wall of the box lid body 42, which are integrally formed. ing. Therefore, the sealing member 30 is arranged apart from the box lid body 42 by the length dimension of the connecting member 31, and a predetermined interval is formed between the sealing member 30 and the side wall of the box lid body 42.

  Here, as shown in FIG. 5, the control circuit board is used in a state of being sealed in the board box 40. Thereafter, the control circuit board is subjected to an illegal act (for example, to an illegal ROM). If there is a suspicion that the control circuit board (ROM) is inspected, the board box 40 must be opened. Therefore, in order to open the substrate box 40, the connecting member 31 is cut by a tool such as a nipper. A space for entering the cutting edge of a tool such as a nipper is formed. Therefore, when cutting the connection member 31, it can be easily cut using a tool such as a nipper. Further, a gap T is provided between the lower end surface (lower side in FIG. 3) of the connecting member 31 and the upper end surface (upper side in FIG. 3) of the sealing member 20 (see FIGS. 4 and 5). Therefore, since the cutting edge of a tool such as a nipper can be inserted into the gap T, the connecting member 31 can be easily cut without being obstructed by the upper end surface of the sealing member 20, and the workability of the cutting work can be improved. Can be improved.

  The substrate box 40 can be opened by cutting the connecting member 31. In particular, the substrate box 40 can be opened without destroying the substrate box main body 41 and the substrate box lid 42. Using the box main body 41 and the substrate box lid 42, the control circuit board that has been inspected can be encapsulated and sealed again. Therefore, since the board box 40 can be reused, resources can be effectively used.

  A number display K is provided on the upper surface (upper side in FIG. 3) of the connecting member 31. For example, in the case of the four connecting members 31 provided on the side wall 42a of the box lid body 42 (see FIG. 2), number displays K from “1” to “4” are displayed. Each number display K represents the order in which each pair of sealing members 20 and 30 is sealed. Therefore, each sealing member 20 and each sealing member 30 opposed to the sealing member 20 are sealed using the sealing metal fittings 11 in the order of the number display K from “1” to “4”, and the numbers from “1” to “4” are displayed. The connecting member can be cut in the order of K using a tool such as a nipper. The number K is formed by using a mold at the same time as the connecting member 31 is formed, and is projected on the outer surface of the connecting member 31. Therefore, when the connecting member 31 is cut, the number display K provided on the outer surface thereof is damaged. In the case where a person who has performed an illegal act by cutting the connecting member 31 rejoins the cut portion using an adhesive or the like in order to conceal the illegal act, the damaged number display K is displayed outside the connecting member 31. It is not easy to restore the surface to be convex and conceal the trace of cutting. Therefore, since the fraudulent act cannot be reliably concealed, the fraudulent act can be detected at an early stage, and the fraudulent act can be suppressed.

  Next, each member which comprises the fitting member 2 is demonstrated with reference to FIGS. 6 and 7 are perspective views of each member constituting the fitting member 2, and FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view of the fitting member 2 taken along line VIII-VIII in FIG. A state of being fitted into the fitting recess 53 is shown. 6 to 8, a part of the box main body 41 and the box lid 42 are omitted.

  The fitting member 2 is used for positioning the box lid body 42 that covers the box body 41 and sealing the box body 41 and the box lid body 42, and is disposed on the box body 41. The case 50 and the fitting projection 60 disposed on the box lid 42 are configured. The disposition position at which the fitting member 2 is disposed on the box body 41 and the box lid body 42 is set at a different position depending on the model of the pachinko machine to which the board box is mounted. That is, for example, a board box 40 (see FIG. 6) is mounted on a pachinko machine model A (hereinafter referred to as model A), and is mounted on a pachinko machine model B (hereinafter referred to as model B). When the substrate box 70 is used (see FIG. 7), the fitting convex portion 60 and the fitting concave portion 53 into which the fitting convex portion 60 is fitted are arranged at different positions in the model A and the model B, respectively. Yes. Therefore, the box main body 41 and the box cover body 42 between different models do not correspond to the fitting convex part 60 and the fitting concave part 53 of the fitting member 2, so the box cover body 42 is attached to the box main body 41. Cannot be laid down. In addition, since each case 50 and each fitting convex part 60 are each comprised substantially the same, below, the same number is attached | subjected to the same part and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the fitting convex portion 60 is attached to the side wall of the box lid body 42 via a connecting member 61. It is fitted to the fitting recess 53 of the case 50 disposed on the side wall of the main body 41. The fitting convex portion 60 includes a bottom wall 60a, a front wall 60b, and a pair of side walls 60c and 60d, and these members 60a to 60c are integrally formed of a synthetic resin material or the like. . The bottom wall 60a is provided below the connecting member 61 (the lower side in FIG. 6), and a front wall 60b and a pair of side walls 60c and 60d are erected from the edge of the bottom wall 60a.

  The outer surface side of the fitting convex portion 60 is formed so as to come into contact with the inner surface side of the fitting concave portion 53 when fitted into a fitting concave portion 53 of the case 50 described later. That is, the outer surfaces of the bottom wall 60a and the front wall 60b are in contact with the inner surfaces of the bottom wall 50a and the front wall 50b of the case 50 (see FIG. 8), and the outer surfaces of the pair of side walls 60c and 60d are the side surfaces of the case 50. The wall 50d and the inner surface of the partition plate 51 are formed so as to be in contact with each other. Therefore, when covering the box body 42 on the box body 41, the fitting protrusion is formed by applying an adhesive between the contact surfaces of the outer surface side of the fitting protrusion 60 and the inner surface side of the fitting recess 53. The part 60 and the fitting recessed part 53 can be adhere | attached. Therefore, the case main body 41 and the case lid 42 can be sealed so that they cannot be opened by such adhesion.

  Thus, since the fitting convex part 60 is formed so that not only the bottom face part 60a but also the front wall 60b and the side walls 60c, 60d can contact the inner surface of the fitting concave part 53, a sufficient bonding area is secured. Thus, the fitting member 2 can be securely bonded. In addition, each contact surface of the outer surface side of the fitting convex part 60 and the inner surface side of the fitting recessed part 53 does not need to adhere | attach completely, and may have a predetermined clearance gap. In this case, it is desirable to use a curable adhesive that exhibits adhesive properties by being cured, and to fill the gap between the contact surfaces with the adhesive.

  The connection member 61 is for connecting the fitting convex part 60 and the box lid body 42, respectively, and is formed in a thin plate shape having a rectangular shape in cross section. As shown in FIG. 6, one end of the connecting member 61 is disposed on the bottom wall 60 a and the front wall 60 b of the fitting convex portion 60, and the other end is disposed on the side wall of the box lid body 42. These are integrally formed. Therefore, the fitting convex part 60 is spaced apart from the box lid body 42 by the length dimension of the connecting member 61, and a predetermined interval is formed.

  Here, after the control circuit board is sealed in the board box 40, if there is a suspicion that the control circuit board has been fraudulent (for example, replacement with an illegal ROM), the control circuit board In order to inspect (ROM), the substrate box 40 needs to be opened. In this case, in order to open the board box 40, as described above, the connecting member 31 of the sealing member 30 is cut (see FIG. 5), and the connecting member 61 of the fitting convex portion 60 is removed by a tool such as a nipper. Disconnect. Between the fitting convex part 60 and the side wall of the box cover body 42, the space | interval for the blade edge | tip of tools, such as a nipper, to enter is formed. Therefore, when cutting the connecting member 61, it can be easily cut using a tool such as a nipper. Further, a gap T is formed between the lower end surface of the connecting member 61 (lower side in FIG. 8) and the upper end surface (upper side in FIG. 8) of the bottom wall 50a of the case 50 by a groove 50e provided in the bottom wall 50a. Is provided (see FIG. 8). Therefore, since the cutting edge of a tool such as a nipper can be inserted into the gap T, the connecting member 61 can be easily cut without being obstructed by the upper end surface of the bottom wall 50a. Can be improved.

  The substrate box 40 can be opened by cutting the connecting member 61. In particular, the substrate box 40 can be opened without destroying the substrate box main body 41 and the substrate box lid 42. Using the box main body 41 and the substrate box lid 42, the control circuit board that has been inspected can be encapsulated and sealed again. Therefore, since the board box 40 can be reused, resources can be effectively used.

  The case 50 is provided on the side wall of the box main body 41 and includes a fitting concave portion 53 into which the fitting convex portion 60 is fitted when the box lid body 42 is covered on the box main body 41. The case 50 includes a bottom wall 50a extending substantially horizontally from the side wall of the box body 41, a front wall 50b and a pair of side walls 50c, 50d erected from the edge of the bottom wall 50a. And. Each of these members 50a to 50d is formed integrally with the box body 41 with a synthetic resin material or the like, and the case 50 is formed on the upper surface and the side surface (the upper side and the right back side in FIG. 6) by these members 50a to 50d. Is formed in an open hollow box shape.

  In addition, in an internal space formed by the case 50, a partition plate 51 and a barrier plate 52 are erected on the bottom wall 50a. The partition plate 51 is for forming a fitting recess 53 that divides the internal space of the case 50 and into which the fitting projection 60 is fitted. The partition plate 51 has a predetermined side wall 50d (right side in FIG. Are opposed to each other with an interval of. The space between the facing surfaces of the side wall 50d and the partition plate 51 corresponds to the width direction dimension of the fitting convex portion 60 (the distance between the non-facing surfaces of the pair of side walls 60c and 60d). A fitting recess 53 into which the fitting protrusion 60 can be fitted is formed between the opposing surfaces of the wall 50d and the partition plate 51. When the fitting convex portion 60 is fitted in the fitting concave portion 53, the inner surface side of the fitting concave portion 53 and the outer surface side of the fitting convex portion 60 are brought into contact with each other as described above. By fitting them together, the fitting member 2 can be joined and the box body 41 and the box lid 42 can be sealed.

  A barrier plate 52 is erected in the other internal space (left side in FIG. 6) of the case 50 partitioned by the partition plate 51. The barrier plate 52 is for preventing the fitting convex portion 60 from being fitted into the internal space of the case 50 when the box lid 42 is covered on the box body 41. And the side wall 50b of the case 50 are erected between opposing surfaces. For example, when the box lid 42 (see FIG. 7) used for the model B is accidentally covered with the box body 41 (see FIG. 6) used for the model A, the box lid 42 is fitted. The convex portion 60 is locked by the barrier plate 52 provided in the case 50 of the box body 41, and the box lid body 42 cannot be covered on the box body 41. Therefore, in the manufacturing process of the pachinko machine, it is possible to prevent an operator from mistakenly using another type of box body or box lid body and assembling the substrate box with an incorrect combination.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the bottom wall 50a of the case 50 is formed to be bent stepwise, and a groove 50e is provided on the upper surface side of the bottom wall 50a due to the bending. Therefore, by this groove 50e, between the upper surface side (upper side in FIG. 8) of the bottom wall 50a and the lower end surface (lower side in FIG. 8) of the connecting member 61 that connects the fitting convex portion 60 to the box lid body 42. A gap T is formed in. Therefore, since the cutting edge of a tool such as a nipper can be inserted into the gap T, the connecting member 61 can be easily cut without being obstructed by the upper end surface of the bottom wall 50a, and the workability of the cutting work is improved. Can be improved.

  In addition, when the fitting convex portion 60 and the fitting concave portion 53 are bonded with an adhesive, if a large amount of adhesive is applied to the fitting concave portion 53, the excess adhesive is removed from the box body 41 and the box lid body 42. May flow out to the joint portion (between the opposing surfaces of the insertion recess 44 of the box lid 42 and the guide plate 43 of the box body 41). In this case, the box body 41 and the box lid 42 The substrate box 40 cannot be opened unless the box body 41 and the box lid 42 are destroyed. Therefore, the board box 40 cannot be reused. However, as described above, the groove 50e is provided on the upper surface side of the bottom wall 50a. Further, the groove 50e is a joint between the box main body 41 and the box lid body 42, particularly on the upper surface side of the bottom wall 50a. It is provided on the partial side (right side in FIG. 8). Therefore, since the adhesive is stored in the groove 50e without flowing out to the joint portion between the box body 41 and the box lid body 42, the joint portion between the box body 41 and the box lid body 42 is formed by the adhesive. It is possible to prevent the adhesive from being fixed. Therefore, the control circuit board can be stored and sealed by reusing the unsealed board box 40 by cutting the connecting member 61 of the fitting convex part 60.

  Further, the case 50 is formed so as to protrude outward from the side wall of the box main body 41 and the surface on the side where the box lid 42 is covered (upper side in FIG. 6) is opened. The part 60 protrudes from the side wall of the box lid 42 corresponding to the case 50. That is, the fitting member 2 is disposed at a position where the fitting convex portion 60 fitted to the case 50 can be visually recognized when the box cover 42 is covered on the box main body 41 and attached to the pachinko machine. (See FIG. 1). Therefore, since the fitting member 2 can be visually recognized without removing the board box 40 from the pachinko machine, it is easy to check whether the connection member 61 has no cutting trace or whether a different type of box lid 42 is used. Can be confirmed.

  Here, the box body 41 and the box lid body 42 are molded into a desired shape using a molding die, and the fitting member 2 is molded to mold the box body 41 and the box lid body 42. It is molded into a desired shape by a telescoping die that is partially fitted into the mold. Therefore, the fitting convex part 60 of the fitting member 2 and the connection member 61 change the arrangement | positioning position to the box cover body 42 by changing the insertion type | mold inserted into the molding die which shape | molds the box cover body 42. can do. That is, by fitting one nested mold into a molding die for molding the box lid body 42 and molding the mold, the fitting convex portion 60 and the connecting member 61 are placed at predetermined positions (model A in the model A). (Refer to the corresponding position) (Refer to Fig. 6) When one nested mold is used by inserting another nested mold into the molding die instead of one nested mold and molding the mold. The fitting projection 60 and the connecting member 61 can be disposed on the box lid 42 at a position different from the position (position corresponding to the model B) (see FIG. 7).

  On the other hand, in the case 50 of the fitting member 2, the position of the fitting recess 53 provided in the internal space of the case 50 can be changed by changing the insert mold that is inserted into the molding die for molding the box body 41. Be changed. That is, by inserting a nested mold into a molding die for molding the box body 41 and molding the box body, the barrier plate 52 has a space between the opposing surfaces of the partition plate 51 and the side wall 50c (the left side in FIG. 6). And a fitting recess 53 is formed at a position corresponding to the fitting protrusion 60 of the model A (see FIG. 6). Then, instead of the one nested mold, another nested mold is fitted into the molding die, and the mold is formed, so that the barrier plate 52 has a space between the opposing surfaces of the partition plate 51 and the side wall 50d (FIG. 7). The fitting concave portion 53 is formed at a position corresponding to the fitting convex portion 60 of the model B (see FIG. 7). In this way, the placement position of the fitting convex portion 60 and the fitting concave portion 53 on the box body 41 and the box lid body 42 can be changed using the insert type, so that the board box can be changed for each model of the pachinko machine. Even in the case of forming different shapes, it is not necessary to prepare molds for molding the box body 41 and the box lid 42 which are the skeletons of the substrate boxes 40 and 70 for the types of pachinko machines. It is possible to reduce the cost and the manufacturing cost of the molding die.

  As described above, the substrate box 40 of this embodiment is used for a plurality of models, but the box main body 41 and the box lid 42 are shared by all models. That is, the box body 41 and the box lid body 42 have the same shape for all models. Similarly, the disposition position where the sealing member 1 is disposed on the box main body 41 and the box lid body 42 is a common position in all models. On the other hand, the box main body 41 and the box lid body 42 (that is, the substrate box 40) are used at the positions where the fitting concave portion 53 and the fitting convex portion 60 are disposed on the box main body 41 and the box lid body 42. The position is different depending on the model. That is, when there are n types of pachinko machines, the n-type box main body 41 and the box convex body 60 are arranged at different positions by disposing the fitting concave portion 53 and the fitting convex portion 60 in the box main body 41 and the box lid body 42. A box lid 42 is formed. Therefore, for example, for the box main body 41 or the box lid 42 used for the model A (see FIG. 6), the box lid 42 or the box used for the model B having a different arrangement position of the fitting member 2. The control circuit board cannot be encapsulated using the main body 41. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent an illegal act of changing the control circuit board using the box body 41 or the box lid 42 diverted from different models. Moreover, since the fitting member 2 can be shape | molded by a nested mold, manufacturing cost can be reduced.

  Further, as described above, the fitting recess 53 and the fitting convex portion 60 have been arranged in the box main body 41 and the box lid 42 according to the type of the pachinko machine. Apart from the recess 53 and the fitting convex portion 60 (hereinafter abbreviated as “first fitting member” in this paragraph), the fitting concave portion and the fitting convex portion (fitted in a common position in all models) Hereinafter, in this paragraph, “second fitting member” may be provided separately. In this case, since the arrangement position of the second fitting member is common among the models, the second fitting member can be molded by a molding die for molding the box body 41 or the box lid body 42. it can. Therefore, it is not necessary to prepare a nested mold separately in order to mold the second fitting member, so that the manufacturing cost can be reduced. Further, by providing the second fitting member, the number of fitting members that can be bonded increases, so that the board box 40 can be more reliably sealed and fraud can be suppressed. In this case, for example, in the first bonding (first time), only the first fitting member is bonded, and after opening the board box 40 by one inspection of the control circuit board, the first bonding (first time). The second fitting member that is not used in step (2) may be bonded and fixed (second time) to seal the substrate box 40. By comprising in this way, the board | substrate box 40 using an adhesive agent can be sealed and opened several times (at least twice).

  Further, the fitting member 2 is disposed only on one side wall of the box body 41 and the box lid body 42 (in this embodiment, the side walls 41c and 42c (see FIG. 2)). Here, when the fitting member 2 is disposed on two or more side walls, for example, two orthogonal side walls (for example, the side walls 41a and 42a and the side walls 41c and 42c (see FIG. 2)), the fitting member Since the nesting mold for forming 2 becomes large or a plurality of nesting molds are required, there arises a problem that the manufacturing cost increases. However, as in the present embodiment, by disposing the fitting member 2 only on one side wall, the fitting member 2 can be molded with only one nested mold, and the nested mold can be reduced in size. As a result, the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

  In addition, although the fitting recessed part 53 and the fitting convex part 60 demonstrated that the arrangement | positioning position was changed according to the model of a pachinko machine as mentioned above, the fitting recessed part 53 and the fitting convex part 60 were demonstrated. Changing the arrangement position does not change the outer shape of the board box 40 according to the type of gaming machine. This is because the fitting recess 53 is changed in its arrangement position by changing the standing position of the partition plate 51 and the barrier plate 52 in the case 50, and the outer shape of the case 50 does not change. Yes (see FIG. 6). In general, electrical connectors, other board boxes, and the like are arranged around the mounting portion of the board box 40 in a complicated manner, so that there is little room for mounting space. However, since the above-mentioned board box 40 can change the arrangement position of the fitting concave part 53 and the fitting convex part 60 according to the model of the pachinko machine without changing the outer shape, Therefore, it is not necessary to design the shape, arrangement position, etc. of each component arranged for each model, and the design cost can be reduced.

  However, the outer shape of the board box 40 may be changed according to the model of the gaming machine by changing the arrangement positions of the fitting concave portion 53 and the fitting convex portion 60. That is, the arrangement position of the case 50 itself is changed on the box body 41. In that case, a fitting portion corresponding to the outer shape of the board box 40 may be provided on the back side of the pachinko machine so that the board box 40 of another model (that is, the outer shape is different) cannot be attached.

  Next, a method for sealing the control circuit board with the board box 40 described above will be described. First, after the control circuit board is disposed and fixed in the box body 41, the sealing members 20 and 30 of the sealing tool 1 are opposed to each other, and the fitting convex portions 60 and the fitting concave portions 53 of the fitting member 2 are arranged. The box lid body 42 is covered with the box body 41. With this covering, the fitting protrusion 30e of the sealing member 30 is fitted into the fitting groove 20f of each sealing member 20, and the fitting convex portion 60 is fitted to the fitting concave portion 53. An adhesive may be applied in advance to the opposing surface between the outer surface of the fitting convex portion 60 and the inner surface side of the fitting concave portion 53, and after the box lid body 42 is covered on the box body 41. The adhesive may be filled between the opposing surfaces. Then, the seal fitting 11 is inserted into the engagement holes 30 a and the insertion holes 30 c of the twelve sealing members 30 in total, and the head portion 11 b is pressed down to push the seal fitting 11 into the sealing member 30.

  When the seal fitting 11 is pushed in, the locking claw 11c of the seal fitting 11 is pressed toward the plate portion 11a by the insertion hole 30c and gradually elastically deforms. Further, when the sealing metal fitting 11 is continuously inserted, the locking claw 11c is elastically restored, and the locking claw 11c is locked to the locking surface 30d and held by the holding portion H. Therefore, each sealing metal fitting 11 can be held in the sealing member 31 in a state where it cannot be removed, and the sealing metal fitting 11 can be prevented from being lost (see FIG. 4).

  After holding each of the twelve sealing metal fittings 11 in each sealing member 30, the sealing member 30 of the sealing tool 1 is fixed to the box lid 42 by the connecting member 31 with the number designation K of “1”. The head 11b of the seal fitting 11 inserted into the object is pushed down, and the seal fitting 11 is further pushed in. When the seal fitting 11 is pushed in, the locking claw 11c of the seal fitting 11 is gradually elastically deformed toward the plate portion 11a via the tapered surface of the insertion hole 20a. When the sealing metal fitting 11 is continuously inserted, the locking claw 11c is elastically restored, the locking claw 11c is locked to the locking surface 20b of the sealing member 20, and the sealing metal fitting 11 is pulled out in the sealing member 20. Held in an impossible state. On the other hand, the head portion 11 b of the sealing metal fitting 11 is held in the engagement hole 30 a of the sealing member 30.

  As a result, the sealing metal fitting 11 cannot be removed from the sealing member 20, and the first engaging portion 11b1 and the second engaging portion 11b2 of the sealing metal fitting 11 are connected to the first engaging surface 30b1 of the sealing member 30, Engaged with the second engagement surface 30b2 (see FIG. 5), the outer surface side of the fitting convex portion 60 and the inner surface side of the fitting concave portion 53 are bonded at the same time, and the fitting member 2 is coupled inseparably. Therefore, the box main body 41 and the box lid body 42 of the substrate box 40 are connected so as not to be opened, and the substrate box 40 can be reliably sealed. Therefore, an illegal act of illegally removing the control ROM on the control circuit board encapsulated in the board box 40 and changing the game content of the pachinko machine 55 can be prevented. Further, the substrate box 40 can be opened by destroying or cutting the sealing members 20, 30 or the fitting member 2, but in that case, the trace of the substrate box 40 being opened can be reliably left. . That is, it is possible to immediately discover whether or not an illegal act has been performed.

  When opening the board box 40, it is necessary to cut the connecting member 31 of the sealing member 30 and the connecting member 61 of the fitting convex portion 60 to which the number display K of “1” is attached with a nipper or the like. Therefore, when a person who has performed an unauthorized act opens the board box 40 and performs an unauthorized act such as unauthorized modification on the control circuit board, the concealed portion of the connecting members 31 and 61 is to be concealed. It is necessary to apply an adhesive or the like and rejoin the cut portion. Further, it is not easy to repair the number mark K of “1” damaged by cutting and hide the trace of cutting. Accordingly, since the fraudulent act cannot be reliably concealed, the fraudulent act can be detected at an early stage, and the fraudulent act can be suppressed.

  Next, a second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 9 is a perspective view showing a state in which the board box 80 in which the fitting member 90 is disposed in the second embodiment is opened. In the first embodiment, the fitting recess 53 is formed from the side wall of the box body 41. In contrast to the case 50 provided outwardly in the case 50, the insertion recess 91 is provided in the side wall of the box body 81 in the second embodiment. FIG. 10 is a partial cross-sectional view of the sealing tool 1 in a state where the substrate box 40 is sealed. In FIG. 9, a part of the substrate box 80 is omitted. The same parts as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is omitted.

  The substrate box 80 includes a box main body 81 and a box lid body 82 that covers the box main body 81 as in the first embodiment. The fitting member 90 includes a fitting recess 91 that is recessed in the side wall of the box body 81 and a fitting projection 92 that protrudes from the side wall of the box lid 82, and the box lid 81 is connected to the box body 81. When 82 is covered, the fitting projection 92 is fitted into the fitting recess 91. The fitting concave portion 91 and the fitting convex portion 92 are arranged at different positions for each model of the pachinko machine, and the fitting convex portion 92 cannot be fitted into the fitting concave portion 91 between different models.
