Description

The present invention has a game surface on which a pachinko ball falls while being interfered by an obstacle such as a game nail, and a rail member for guiding the pachinko ball launched from the pachinko ball launching mechanism upward is disposed in a lower area of the game surface. It relates to a pachinko machine that has been made.

Traditionally, there is no end to fraudulent acts by pachinko halls and players that change the rate at which pachinko machines are launched. For example, in the pachinko hall, it has been a problem in the past to change the game contents by accessing the control board and flowing current from the outside to the ROM, or to replace the control board itself or the ROM .

However, an illegal act is also performed in which a player actually operates a game nail from the outside to make it easier for a pachinko ball to enter a winning opening (starting port) .

This fraud is performed, for example, by the following procedure. As shown in FIG. 30, the fraudulent acts as an internal passage wall surface 152 a of the pachinko ball inlet 152 facing the upper tray 151 of the door frame 150.
A through hole 153 communicating with the back surface of the door frame 150 is formed using a tool. Then, as shown in FIG. 31, the wire 154 enters through the through hole 153 and is guided onto the game surface 155 a of the game board 155 disposed behind the door frame 150.
At this time, the positional relationship between each member of the pachinko gaming machine and the wire 154 is as follows. When viewed from the front, the rail 156 is disposed to cross the pachinko ball inlet 152 at a position above the left and right. The fraudster passes the wire 154 upward so as to cross the front surface of the rail 156, and further passes the side of the big prize opening 157 to win the prize opening (starting opening) 15.
7 is hooked on the head of the game nail 158A on the left in the figure of the game nail 158 to be two life nails. Then, by pulling the wire 154 strongly, the space between the game nails 158 above the winning opening (starting port) 159 is increased. As a result, the pachinko ball is the winning opening (starting opening)
It becomes easy to enter 157 and the number of winnings increases, and with the increase in winnings to the winning port (starting port) 159, the symbol display device 160 displays more variation of symbols than before fraud. The probability that the stop fixed symbol after the variable display called “big hit” will become a specific hit symbol set in advance is unreasonably increased.

The present invention has been made paying attention to such problems existing in the prior art. And an object thereof is to provide a Yu technique machine capable of reliably preventing unauthorized entry into the game surface tamper device from the door side.

In order to achieve the above object, in the invention 1, the game surface having a game area where the pachinko ball falls while being interfered with an obstacle such as a game nail, and the pachinko ball launched from the pachinko ball launching mechanism are guided upward. A game body provided with a rail member that divides the game area, and a game body that is attached to the front surface of the game body so as to be openable and closable and is closed with respect to the game body. A door having a pachinko ball tray that has a window and stores pachinko balls released from the game body through a passage formed at a position below the game surface and positioned below the game surface; The door body is formed with a protrusion protruding rearward, and the protrusion is outside the rail member when the door body is closed with respect to the game body. Adjacent to the member And the gist of the invention to advance to the location.

In the configuration as described above, the game body has a game surface having a game area in which the pachinko ball falls while being interfered with an obstacle such as a game nail, and further, the game surface is fired from the pachinko ball launching mechanism below the game surface. A rail member that guides the pachinko ball to be moved upward is provided. The rail member defines a game area. The door body is attached to the front surface of such a game body so that it can be opened and closed. The door body that can be opened and closed on the front surface of the game body has a window portion, and the game surface is visible from the front side through the window portion. In addition, a pachinko ball tray for storing pachinko balls released from the game body through a passage disposed below the game surface is formed at a position below the window.
In such a configuration, the door body is further formed with a protruding portion protruding rearward. The forming means and the forming place are not particularly limited. In a state in which the door body is closed with respect to the game body, a configuration is adopted in which the projecting portion extends outward from the rail member and advances to a position adjacent to the rail member. Here, the outside of the rail member means the opposite side of the game area across the rail member. Since the rail member protrudes from the game body side and the protruding portion protrudes from the door body side, the position between the game area and the outer area of the game area is no longer a straight space, so the unauthorized operation member may not pass. It becomes difficult.

By adopting such a configuration, even when a hole is opened in the passage to the pachinko ball tray in a state where the door body is closed with respect to the game body, an unauthorized operation instrument such as a wire is allowed to enter from this hole, Since the space between the rail member and the projecting portion is bent and made difficult to pass, it is difficult for the tampering instrument to enter the game area beyond the rail member.
In addition, since the protrusion moves away from the position overlapping the rail member together with the door body as the door body is opened, the protrusion section obstructs the inspection work when the door body is opened for inspection on the game body side. Never become.

In order to achieve the above object, in the invention 2, the game surface having a game area in which the pachinko ball falls while being interfered with an obstacle such as a game nail, and the pachinko ball launched from the pachinko ball launching mechanism upward. A game body provided with a rail member for guiding and partitioning the game area;
The game body has a window portion that is openably and closably attached to the front face of the game body and is closed with respect to the game body, and has a window portion that is formed at a position below the window portion. There are also a door body having a pachinko ball tray for storing pachinko balls released from the game body through a passage disposed at a lower position, a plate-shaped transparent body, and a holding frame body for holding the transparent body. And a transparent body unit that is disposed on the back side of the door body and seals the window portion, and the holding frame body of the transparent body unit is formed with a protruding portion that protrudes rearward, The gist of the invention is that the protruding portion advances to a position adjacent to the rail member outside the rail member in a state where the door body is closed with respect to the game body.

In the configuration as described above, the game body has a game surface having a game area in which the pachinko ball falls while being interfered with an obstacle such as a game nail, and further, the game surface is fired from the pachinko ball launching mechanism below the game surface. A rail member that guides the pachinko ball to be moved upward is provided. The rail member defines a game area. The door body is attached to the front surface of such a game body so that it can be opened and closed. A transparent body unit is disposed on the back side of the window portion of the door body that can be opened and closed on the front surface of the game body. The transparent body unit has a plate-like transparent body and a holding frame body that holds the transparent body. The game surface is visible from the front side through the window. In addition, a pachinko ball tray for storing pachinko balls released from the game body through a passage disposed below the game surface is formed at a position below the window.
In such a configuration, a protruding portion that protrudes rearward is formed on the holding frame of the transparent body unit. The forming means and the forming place are not particularly limited. In a state in which the door body is closed with respect to the game body, a configuration is adopted in which the projecting portion extends outward from the rail member and advances to a position adjacent to the rail member. Here, the outside of the rail member means the opposite side of the game area across the rail member. Since the rail member protrudes from the game body side and the protruding portion protrudes from the door body side, the position between the game area and the outer area of the game area is no longer a straight space, so the unauthorized operation member may not pass. It becomes difficult.

By adopting such a configuration, even when a hole is opened in the passage to the pachinko ball tray in a state where the door body is closed with respect to the game body, an unauthorized operation instrument such as a wire is allowed to enter from this hole, Since the space between the rail member and the projecting portion is bent and made difficult to pass, it is difficult for the tampering instrument to enter the game area beyond the rail member. In addition, since the protrusion moves away from the position overlapping the rail member together with the door body as the door body is opened, the protrusion section obstructs the inspection work when the door body is opened for inspection on the game body side. Never become.
Further, since the projecting portion is merely formed on the transparent body unit disposed at the window portion position of the door body, it is not necessary to prepare a newly added member.

Here, the game body constitutes a panel portion to be the main body of the pachinko gaming machine. In addition to having a gaming surface, it has a pachinko ball launching mechanism, various control mechanisms related to games, a tank for storing pachinko balls, etc., and in a narrow sense, a component part generally called a gaming machine main body (main body frame) in a pachinko gaming machine Corresponds. The game body may be a composite of a plurality of panels.
The pachinko ball tray is a concept that includes both pachinko machine trays generally called upper and lower trays. In general, an illegal operation is performed from an upper tray that is closer to the game surface, but the case of performing an unauthorized operation from a lower tray is also considered. Moreover, it is also a thing which considered the model which has either one of an upper receiving tray and a lower receiving tray.

The plate-like transparent body is not limited as long as it is a material that shields and protects the front surface so that the game surface cannot be touched and allows the game surface to be visually checked. Generally composed of glass or plastic. The glass is preferably used with tempered glass or laminated glass. Moreover, even if it comprises only one sheet, you may make it arrange in multiple numbers in the front-back direction.
The rail member has a function of partitioning the game surface and also has a function of guiding the pachinko ball launched from the pachinko ball launching mechanism upward. The former is a so-called inner rail function in a general pachinko machine, and the latter is a so-called outer rail function. The inner rail corresponds to the rail member overlapping the protruding portion in the present invention.

The rail member is limited to an arcuate shape that surrounds a general game surface as long as the rail member has a shape that can cross at least the upper region to which the game surface belongs in the lower region and substantially divide the upper region from the lower region. It is not a thing. Also, the rail member need not completely surround the gaming surface. Therefore, even if the game area is not defined by the rail member alone, it is sufficient if the game area is defined in cooperation with other members. The material of the rail member is not limited as long as it is generally used for pachinko gaming machines. Further, the pachinko ball tray may be integrally formed with the door body or may be formed separately. Also, the pachinko ball saucer is intended for cases where neither the upper saucer nor the lower saucer is provided.

Moreover, in order to achieve said objective, in addition to the structure of invention 1 or 2, in invention 3, it makes the summary that the position where the said protrusion part adjoins is a position which overlaps with the said rail member. In this way, the rail member is protruded from the game body side, and the protrusion is protruded from the door body side so that both are overlapped (which can be said to intersect), and the game area and the outer area of the game area are roughly arranged. Can be blocked.
By adopting such a configuration, even when a hole is opened in the passage to the pachinko ball tray in a state where the door body is closed with respect to the game body, an unauthorized operation instrument such as a wire is allowed to enter from this hole, Since the space between the rail member and the projecting portion is shielded by the cooperative action, it is very difficult to advance the unauthorized operating device beyond the rail member to the game area.

Further, in order to achieve the above object, in the invention 4, in addition to the structure of the invention 3, the projecting portion is formed near the lower portion of the holding frame body and overlaps with a lower region of the rail member. And
In other words, it is most effective for preventing unauthorized intrusion if the lower region that is likely to enter is closed by the cooperation of the projecting portion and the rail member.
This is because the upper region of the rail member is far from the intrusion path, and it is difficult to consider a case where the rail member substantially bypasses the upper region of the rail member and reaches the game surface. And even if deformation such as torsion or the like occurs in the projecting part or the holding frame due to aging, by forming the projecting part concentrated not only in the entire area of the holding frame but only in the place where it is most likely to enter in this way Due to the relationship with the rail member, the members interfere with each other, and problems such as the door body not being mounted on the front surface of the game body are less likely to occur.

In order to achieve the above object, in addition to the configuration of invention 3 or 4 in the invention 5, the holding frame body holds the transparent body from the outer periphery, and the peripheral edge of the holding frame body surrounding the transparent body is The gist of the invention is that it extends substantially along the rail member, and the protruding portion is formed along the peripheral edge.
This configuration is intended for the case where the holding frame surrounds the periphery of the plate-shaped transparent body and the edge is along the rail member. As a result, the fraudulent person can visually recognize that the protruding portion extends along the rail member through the transparent body.
As long as the holding frame has a shape that can hold the transparent body from the outer periphery, the shape is not limited to an annular shape.

Furthermore, since the projecting portion is formed substantially along the peripheral edge surrounding the transparent body of the holding frame body, and the peripheral edge is substantially along the extending direction of the rail member, the transparent body has a large size corresponding to the area of the game surface. Can be formed in area. In addition, since the transparent body is held at the peripheral edge, a large opening is formed inside the holding frame body. By thus forming the protruding portion substantially along the peripheral edge, the strength can be improved. It becomes.

Further, in order to achieve the above object, the invention 6 is characterized in that, in addition to the configuration of the invention 5, the protrusion is formed continuously along the peripheral edge.

By adopting such a configuration, the protruding portion is extended and formed as if it is a belt without a gap (cut) in the middle, so that an unauthorized person aims at the cut and uses the unauthorized operation device on the game side. It is impossible to invade. In particular, since it is also possible to visually check how the protruding portion is arranged from the window portion, if there is a cut in a part, there is a strong possibility of intruding an unauthorized operation instrument. Thus, it is preferable to form the protrusions continuously in order to prevent fraud.
In other words, in the first to fifth aspects, such a configuration may be formed only partially when the protruding portion is formed to protrude from the holding frame (that is, even if there is a portion that is not formed in part). It ’s also a flip of things.

Moreover, in order to achieve said objective, in invention 7, in addition to the structure in any one of invention 1-6,
The gist of the invention is that the protruding portion is formed to project rearward in a bowl shape.

As a result, only the necessary and sufficient amount of protrusion can be projected so as to overlap with the rail member, and the entire rear part facing the front of the game body of the holding frame does not unnecessarily protrude to the rail part side. For this reason, it is possible to eliminate the waste of space around the transparent body unit that has particularly no space. In addition, when the protruding portion overlaps with the rail portion, it may be necessary to form “escape” (that is, room for the protruding portion to protrude toward the game body) so as not to interfere with the peripheral members of the rail portion. In this case, if the protrusion is bowl-shaped, the “escape” amount may be small, so that a large design change is not required on the game body side. Further, the rib structure protruding rearward in a bowl shape contributes to the improvement of the strength of the holding frame.

Moreover, in order to achieve said objective, in invention 8, in addition to the structure of the invention in any one of invention 1-7, in the state by which the said door body was closed with respect to the said game body in the upper part of the said protrusion part. The gist is that a sealing member interposed between the rail member and the rail member is disposed.

In such a configuration, since the sealing member is interposed between the rail member and the protruding portion, the gap is further reduced, and as a result, it is more difficult to perform fraud. Moreover, the improvement of the intensity | strength of a protrusion part is achieved by joining a protrusion part and a sealing member.

In order to achieve the above object, in the invention 9, in addition to any one of the structures of the inventions 1 to 7,
The gist of the invention is that a sealing member interposed between the protrusion and the protrusion is disposed on the rear surface of the rail member in a state where the door body is closed with respect to the game body.
In this configuration, the sealing member according to the sixth aspect of the invention is arranged on the rail member side instead of the protruding portion side.
In such a configuration, since the sealing member cannot be seen by the player, it is difficult to advance the unauthorized operation tool in the game area direction by passing through the sealing member.

Moreover, in order to achieve said objective, in invention 10, in addition to the structure of invention 1-9, it makes it the summary to have comprised the said sealing member from the flexible material.

By constituting the sealing member from a flexible material, the sealing member can be easily deformed with respect to pressing. For this reason, the gap between the rail member and the protruding portion is not constant. For example, even when only a part of the sealing member interferes with the rail member, it is merely bent and the portion bites into the door body. There is no such thing as being unable to open. Rather, it will contribute to the improvement of the sealing performance.
Further, when the sealing member is disposed on the upper portion of the protruding portion, the sealing member is firmly fixed, and the possibility that the sealing member falls off is lower than when the sealing member is suspended from the rail member.
Examples of the sealing member made of a flexible material include a hollow or solid elastomer packing. It is more preferable that the sealing member is a string-like body from the viewpoint of disposing the sealing member without any interruption and convenience of the mounting work.

Further, in order to achieve the above object, in the invention 11, in addition to the structure of any one of the inventions 1 to 10, the door body can be rotated about an opening / closing axis line formed vertically on either side and extending vertically. If the projection has a vertical component and the projection may interfere with the rail member when the door body is opened and closed, the gap with the rail member is separated and the same as the projection. The gist is to prevent interference with the rail member.

Here, the horizontal direction of the pachinko gaming machine is horizontal and the vertical direction is vertical. For example, when considering a rail member (in this case, an inner rail) 162 surrounding the gaming surface 161 as shown in FIG.
Since the rail member 162 extends horizontally in the vicinity, there is almost no vertical component, and since it is slanted in the vicinity of Q, it includes a slight vertical component, and in the vicinity of R, it extends vertically, so only the vertical component is present. It is.
As shown in FIG. 33, it is assumed that a door body 164 is disposed on the front surface of a game body 163 having such a rail member 162. It is assumed that the transparent body unit 165 is disposed on the back surface of the door body 164 and the protruding portions 166 are disposed on the outside of the rail member 162 in an overlapping manner.

In such a state, as shown in FIG. 34, when the door body is opened with the vertically extending opening / closing shaft 167 formed on either the left or right side as the axis, there is a vertical component in the extending direction of the protruding portion. The protrusion 166 present on the opening / closing axis 167 side of the rail member 162 with the opening is also rotated around the opening / closing axis to behave in the direction of the rail member 162. And FIG.
If the protrusion 166 is close to the rail member 162 as shown in (a) and (b), the rail member 162 may be interfered.
For this reason, in the above configuration, if there is a vertical component, the distance between the protruding portion and the rail member is separated so as not to interfere in consideration of the vertical component. In other words, the protrusion does not interfere with the rail member even when the door is opened. As a result, the door can be opened smoothly.

Generally, in a pachinko gaming machine, the rail member (inner rail) 162 has an arc shape as shown in FIG. 32, and therefore there is little vertical component in the lower region of the game surface, that is, the P position where it is most likely to enter, so the distance between the protrusion and the rail member There is no need to greatly separate them. On the other hand, the rail member
Since the vertical component is significant at the (R position), the interval between the protrusion and the rail member needs to be separated. However, although it becomes easier to enter if the interval between the protruding portion and the rail member is separated, the right and left side is relatively far from the passage of the pachinko ball tray, so it is difficult to enter, even in such a configuration There are few problems in practice.
Here, it is preferable that the distance from the rail member is increased as the vertical component increases. In this case, the distance may be gradually increased as the vertical component increases. You may make it increase.

In order to achieve the above object, in the invention 12, in addition to the structure of any one of the inventions 3 to 11, the door body can be rotated about an opening / closing axis line formed vertically on either side and extending vertically If the projection has a vertical component and the projection may interfere with the rail member when the door is opened and closed, the amount of overlap with the rail member is reduced and the projection The gist is to prevent interference with the rail member.

Similar to the eleventh aspect, when there is a vertical component in the extending direction of the protruding portion, a problem of interference between the protruding portion and the rail member occurs as shown in FIGS. Therefore, when there is a vertical component, the amount of overlap between the protrusion and the rail member is reduced. As a result, the door can be opened smoothly.

In general, in a pachinko gaming machine, the rail member (inner rail 162) has an arc shape as shown in FIG. 32. Therefore, there are not many vertical components in the lower area of the game surface, that is, at the P position where it is most likely to enter. There is no need to reduce the amount of duplication. On the other hand, the rail member
Since the vertical component is significant at the R position), it is necessary to reduce the amount of overlap between the protrusion and the rail member. However, if the amount of overlap between the protrusion and rail member is reduced, it will be easier to enter,
Since the left and right sides are relatively far from the path of the pachinko ball tray, they are difficult to enter, so even with such a configuration, there are practically no problems. In addition, since the left and right sides of the pachinko gaming machine have no space, it may be difficult to design the gap between the protrusion and the rail member as in the eleventh aspect, but the amount of overlap is reduced in this way. If you do, such a problem will not occur.
Here, it is preferable to reduce the overlap amount with the rail member as the vertical component increases. In this case, the overlap amount may be gradually decreased as the vertical component increases. May be decreased by a certain amount. Further, the overlapping amount with the rail member may be set to 0 at the position where the vertical component is the largest.

In each of the above inventions, even if a fraudulent person opens a hole in the passage to the pachinko ball tray and allows an unauthorized manipulation device such as a wire to enter from this hole, it is formed on the rail member on the game body side and on the door body side. Because of the positional relationship with the protruding portion, it becomes difficult to advance the unauthorized operating device beyond the rail member in the game area direction, so that unauthorized access to the gaming surface can be reliably prevented.

Is placed inside. The glass unit 75 will be described with reference to FIGS.
The glass unit 75 includes an ABS resin glass frame 76 that is integrally manufactured by molding. Two front and rear glass plates 77 and 78 are mounted in parallel on the glass frame 76 at a predetermined interval. In the present embodiment, the glass frame 76 corresponds to a holding frame, and the glass plates 77 and 78 correspond to transparent plates.
The glass frame 76 has an elliptical annular outer shape, and a basic shape is constituted by a thin frame portion 79 and a bulging portion 80 in which a part of the thin frame portion 79 is expanded outward.
The thin frame portion 79 includes a flat plate portion 81 extending in the circumferential direction and a ridge 82 protruding radially in the inner periphery of the flat plate portion 81. The ridge 82 extends over the entire circumference of the glass frame 76, and the inner circumference surrounded by the ridge 82 has an elliptical shape. As shown in FIG. 15, the glass frame 76 has front and rear glass plate support portions 83 a and 83 b by inner peripheral surfaces 81 a and 81 b divided by the protrusions 82 of the flat plate portion 81 and both side surfaces 82 a and 82 b of the protrusions 82. It is configured.
As shown in FIG. 15, the space between the front surface 81A and the rear surface 81B of the flat plate portion 81 is the glass frame 7.
The thickness L is 6.

When the glass frame 76 is attached to the door frame 61, the bulging portion 80 is seen from the front side of the narrow frame portion 79 in the diagonally lower left direction (the side portion in the diagonally lower right direction in FIG. 8 as viewed from the back). It is formed in a bulging shape from the outside to the outside. The thickness (width) of the bulging portion 80 is formed to be the same width as the flat plate portion 81 of the thin frame portion 79. That is, the bulging portion 80 is also configured to have a thickness L defined by the front surface 81A and the rear surface 81B of the flat plate portion 81.
The bulging portion 80 has a substantially isosceles triangular outer shape with rounded chamfered vertices. A recess 84 is formed on the surface side of the bulging portion 80 (the surface shown in FIG. 11). 11 and 16
As shown in FIG. 6, the desiccant 86 is accommodated in the accommodation area S defined by the ribs 85 in the recess 84. As shown in FIG. 10, on the surface side of the bulging portion 80, the flat plate portion 81 extending from the thin frame portion 79 toward the bulging portion 80 surrounds the recess 84 along the outline of the bulging portion 80. Is arranged. Further, on the surface side of the bulging portion 80, the side surface 82 a of the ridge 82 extends from the thin frame portion 79 in the direction of the bulging portion 80 and is disposed so as to surround the concave portion 84 along the flat plate portion 81.
On the other hand, on the spine surface side (surface shown in FIG. 10) of the bulging portion 80, the flat plate portion 81 and the side surface 82b of the ridge 82 do not extend in the direction of the bulging portion 80 and constitute an elliptical ring.

An upper bracket 88 is formed at the upper left position of the glass frame 76 when viewed from the front when mounted on the door frame 61 (state shown in FIG. 11). A pivot shaft 89 that protrudes downward is formed at the tip of the upper bracket 88. A lower bracket 90 is formed outside the bulging portion 80. A rotating shaft 91 protruding downward is formed at the tip of the lower bracket 90. The shaft centers of both rotating shafts 89 and 91 are on the same straight line.
Between the upper bracket 88 and the bulging portion 80 of the glass frame 76, a side ear plate portion 93 is formed to project. A lower ear plate portion 94 is formed to project outward from a position below the bulging portion 80.

As shown in FIG. 10, the upper bracket 88, the bulging portion 80, the side ear plate portion 93, and the lower ear plate portion 94 are integrally connected to adjacent portions, and the glass frame 76 is positioned laterally on the back surface of the glass frame 76. A flat sealing plate portion 92 is formed along the curve 76, that is, substantially along the curve of the inner rail 52. The back surface of the sealing plate portion 92 is flush with the rear surface 81B of the flat plate portion 81.
A pair of left and right hooks 95 are formed on the upper portion of the thin frame portion 79. Two pressing plates 97 provided with positioning positioning plates 96 are formed outwardly and projecting outwardly on the right and upside when viewed from the front when the glass frame 76 is attached to the door frame 61. A pressing plate 98 is formed on the lower portion of the thin frame portion 79 so as to project outward. These hooks 95 and holding plates 97 and 98 are also within the thickness of the flat plate portion 81.

As shown in FIGS. 10 and 12 to 15, a flange 99 serving as a protruding portion protrudes rearward from the rear surface 81 </ b> B of the flat plate portion 81 in the glass frame 76. As shown in FIG. 12, FIG. 17, etc., the inner peripheral surface (upper side in FIG. 10) of the flange portion 99 is flush with the inner peripheral surface 81b of the flat plate portion 81, and the holding plate 97 on the lower side from the bulging portion 80. Between the two. FIG.
As shown in FIG. 12, the flange 99 is formed to have the same width (5 mm in this embodiment) except for the left and right sides, and is chamfered near the left and right sides so that the protruding amount decreases toward the end. A tapered portion 99a is formed which is tapered. In particular, the taper portion 99a facing the pachinko ball launching passage 49 is tapered in this manner. As a result, even if the game ball once launched does not reach the game surface 27a and falls through the pachinko ball launching passage 49, the pachinko ball launching passage 49 falls. Since the ball only comes into contact with the tapered portion 99a and does not collide strongly with the flange portion 99, there is no problem that the flange portion 99 is cracked or cracked, and an abnormal noise due to contact may be generated. Absent.
The rear surface 81B of the flat plate portion 81 is the closest position to the main body frame 14 on the back surface side of the glass frame 76 except for the flange portion 99, and as shown in FIGS.
The back surface of the upper bracket 88, the back surface of the bulging portion 80, the back surface of the side ear plate portion 93, and the lower ear plate portion 9
Each surface of the back surface of 4 exists on the same plane as the rear surface 81 </ b> B of the flat plate portion 81. That means
The glass frame 76 does not protrude rearward from the plane F (see FIGS. 12 and 13) to which the rear surface 81B belongs in addition to the flange 99.

As shown in FIG. 17, the glass plates 77 and 78 are respectively mounted on the glass frame 7.
6 has an outer shape corresponding to the shape of the glass plate support portions 83a and 83b (which may be considered as the shapes of the inner peripheral surfaces 81a and 81b of the flat plate portion 81). The front side glass plate 77 is formed in an irregular shape corresponding to the bulging portion 80, and the rear side glass plate 78 is formed in an elliptical shape. In the present embodiment, the front glass plate 77 is made of tempered glass and has a thickness of 3.2 mm. Further, the rear glass plate 78 is made of two-ply laminated glass with a film interposed therebetween, and has a thickness of 4
. 2 mm.

The glass plates 77 and 78 are fitted to the glass plate support portions 83a and 83b with the ridges 82 sandwiched with respect to the glass frame 76, respectively. The internal space sandwiched between the glass plates 77 and 78 is hermetically sealed and is kept dry by the desiccant 86.
As shown in FIG. 15, both glass plates 77 and 78 have outer peripheral edges that are the inner peripheral surfaces 81 a and 8 of the flat plate portion 81.
Both surfaces 8 of the ridges 82 are glued as an adhesive (not shown) in a state of being in contact with 1b.
2a is attached. As shown in FIGS. 21 to 24, the outer surface positions of the glass plates 77 and 78 are not flush with the front and rear surfaces 81A and 81B of the flat plate portion 81, but are slightly retreated inward from the front and rear surfaces 81A and 81B. (A retraction amount of about 1 mm).

As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the rotation shafts 89 and 91 of the glass unit 75 are pivotally supported by upper and lower bearing fittings 100 disposed on the back surface of the door frame 61. The glass unit 75 can be opened rearward with respect to the door frame 61 with the pivot shafts 89 and 91 as the axis. The glass unit 75 is in close contact with the back surface of the door frame 61 and the hook 95 and the holding plate 9.
7 and 98 are fixed by a fixing member. A fixed state in the region R1 and the region R2 surrounded by the two-dot chain line will be described with reference to FIGS.

First, the region R1 will be described. As shown in FIGS. 8, 9, and 20, the clamp unit 60 is suspended and supported in the housing portion 59. In the present embodiment, only the basic structure of the clamp unit 60 will be described. A lever 106 is pivotally supported by a pivot shaft 104 at the center of the case 105 of the clamp unit 60. In the case 105, the clamp pin 1 is positioned at the left and right positions sandwiching the lever 106 and shifted in the front-rear direction.
07 and 108 are respectively arranged. Both clamp pins 107, 108 are configured by opposingly arranging members configured in the same shape in opposite directions so that the tip faces in the left-right direction,
The proximal portions of the clamp pins 107 and 108 are pivotally supported at portions facing each other across the rotation shaft 104 of the lever 106. As a result, a link mechanism is formed between the clamp pins 107 and 108 and the lever 106. Both clamp pins 107 and 108 are guided by the long hole 110 as the lever 106 rotates, and slide the case 105 to the left and right.

When the lever 106 is in a position protruding forward as shown in FIG. 20A, both the clamp pins 107 and 108 are retracted in the case 105. Then, the lever 106 is moved to FIG.
), The clamp pins 107,
Each of the tips 108 protrudes from the case 105 in the left-right direction.
In such a configuration, the hook 95 is accommodated in a state in which both the clamp pins 107 and 108 are retracted into the case 105 as shown in FIG. 20A, that is, in a state in which the both clamp pins 107 and 108 do not interfere with the hook 95. It is accommodated in the part 59. That is, the clamp unit 6
The zero case 105 is placed between the left and right hooks 95. And FIG. 20 (b)
By rotating the lever 106 as shown in FIG.
Project from 05 and advance to the front of the left and right hooks 95. As a result, the hook 9
5 is pressed by both clamp pins 107 and 108 and fixed to the door frame 61 side (state of FIG. 8).

Next, the region R2 will be described. In the present embodiment, the clamp levers 58 are disposed at three locations. However, in order to avoid overlapping description, the detailed description is represented by the region R2.
The glass unit 75 is disposed in the mounting space 57. As shown in FIG. 19, positioning pins 111 formed on the back surface of the door frame 61 are arranged in the positioning holes 110 formed in the positioning plate 96. The clamp lever 58 includes a rotating shaft 112 and a pressing arm 113. The pressing arm 113 of the clamp lever 58 fixes the pressing plate 97 at the position shown by the solid line in FIG. 18B and FIG. 20 in the use shown in FIG.
On the other hand, a stopper 115 and a pressing hill 116 are formed at a position adjacent to the clamp lever 58 on the rear surface of the door frame 61. The pressing hill 116 is a gently curved hill-shaped protrusion, and interferes with the back surface of the pressing arm 113 to prevent the clamp lever 58 from moving freely. Accordingly, when not in use, the clamp lever 58 contacts the stopper 115 and is held by the pressure hill 116 and is held at the position indicated by the phantom line in FIGS.

As shown in FIGS. 2, 3, and 4, various control devices are arranged in an overlapping manner on the back surface of the main body frame 14 (game board 27). The control device is roughly divided into three units.
A game ball supply device 121 for supplying 0 and game balls, a first unit 124 having a protective cover 123 and the like, a second unit 125 having a main control device and an audio lamp control device, a payout control device, and a launch control device And a third unit 126 including a power supply device.

Next, in the pachinko gaming machine 11 configured as described above, the relationship between the glass unit 75 disposed on the back surface of the door frame 61 and the game board 27 on the main body frame 14 side is mainly shown in FIGS.
And it demonstrates based on FIGS. 21-24. FIG. 7 is a diagram supplementing FIG.
The portions other than the game surface 27a are omitted on the side, and the structure of the concave portion 84 in the bulging portion 80 is omitted from the glass frame 76 and overlapped. In the pachinko gaming machine 11, since the diagram of the members overlapping in the front-rear direction becomes difficult to understand, it is difficult to illustrate the overlapping state of the members in a single drawing. Therefore, FIG. 7 is represented by omitting the subordinate members other than the main part of the present invention.

As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, in a state where the door frame 61 is closed with respect to the main body frame 14,
The inner area surrounded by the ridges 82 of the glass frame 76 substantially coincides with the game area.
At this time, in the present embodiment, the rear surface 81B and the game surface 2 of the glass frame 76 (flat plate portion 81).
The distance between the rear surface 81B and the front end of the inner rail 52 is set to 3 mm. Such a distance between the glass frame 76 and the game surface 27a depends on the size of the pachinko ball and various members (the liquid crystal display 36 and the windmill 4) arranged on the game surface 27a.
3 etc.) and the amount of projection of the game nail are set. As a result, the front surface of the gaming surface 27a is not in contact with the gaming surface 27a, and the glass unit 75 disposed on the rear surface of the door frame 61 is disposed, and a gaming ball (pachinko ball) that falls in the gaming area is also provided. However, it does not spill from the gap between the inner rail 52 and the glass unit 75 between the main body frame 14 and the door frame 61.
In the state where the door frame 61 is closed with respect to the main body frame 14, the sealing plate portion 92 has a pachinko ball launch passage 49 formed between the outer rail 51 and the inner rail 52 as shown in FIG. It is arranged on the front face so as to be generally sealed. That is, since the front side of the pachinko ball launch passage 49 is sealed by the sealing plate portion 92 and the rear glass plate 78 does not face, the pachinko balls passing through the pachinko ball launch passage 49 are directed to the rear glass plate 78. There is no problem that the glass surface is scratched or broken due to contact.

As shown in FIG. 7, the inner periphery of the glass frame 76 defined by the ridges 82 is disposed near the inner rail 52 and below the inner rail 52 (outside in a broad sense). As described above, the distance between the rear surface 81B of the glass frame 76 and the front end of the inner rail 52 is 3 mm.
Since the flange portion 99 having a maximum length of 5 mm protrudes rearward from the rear surface 81B, as shown in FIGS. 22 to 24, the inner rail 52 and the flange portion 99 are overlapped. In the AA position, which is the lowest position of the inner rail 52 in FIG. 7, the flange 99 is 5 m rearward from the rear surface 81B.
Therefore, the front end of the inner rail 52 overlaps 2 mm as shown in FIG. A
Even at a position slightly swung in the left-right direction from the -A position, for example, the BB position, the collar portion 99 protrudes 5 mm rearward from the rear surface 81B, so that the front end of the inner rail 52 overlaps with 2 mm as shown in FIG.

However, at a position where the vertical component increases from the lowest position to the inner rail 52 (here, close to both sides of the curved inner rail 52), the interference between the inner rail 52 and the flange 99 is prevented when the door frame 61 is opened. There is a need to. In the present embodiment, for example, as shown in FIG. 12 and the like, the collar portion 99 is tapered so that the protruding amount decreases toward the end near the left and right sides as the vertical component increases. Therefore, for example, at the CC position, as shown in FIG. 23, the overlapping amount with the front end of the inner rail 52 is smaller than the above position (about half here).
As described above, the flange 99 is overlapped with the lower side of the inner rail 52 in a relatively wide range below the inner rail 52.
In addition, the inner rail 52 is not disposed at the DD position relatively spaced from the passage 68 on the back surface of the tray 67. However, at this position, the partial wall surface 31 of the window hole 29 that demarcates the game area is slightly offset toward the game area side, and the glass frame 76 is moved to the front plate portion 30 as shown in FIG.
And have been duplicated.

With the configuration as described above, the above embodiment has the following effects. (1
) If the flange 99 is not formed on the glass frame 76, a gap is formed between the glass frame 76 and the front end of the inner rail 52. It is possible to form a through hole communicating with the rear surface of the wall surface 68 and insert an elongated tool such as a wire to guide the wire from the gap to the game surface 27a.
However, in the present embodiment, when the door frame 61 is closed on the main body frame 14, the collar portion 99 is disposed in a lower position of the inner rail 52 with respect to the inner rail 52. Even if it is going to be inserted, since the gap is shielded by these overlapping relationships, it is difficult to guide the wire to the game surface 27a. Even if it can be derived, since the operation tends to take a very long time, the deterrent effect is great. As a result, it becomes difficult to carry out fraudulent acts that increase the interval between game nails.

(2) Since the buttock 99 is overlapped at the lower position of the inner rail 52, there is no structural change in the game area, and the player is not affected by the game content depending on the presence or absence of the buttock 99. Absent.
Further, since the collar 99 moves away from the position overlapping with the inner rail 52 together with the door frame 61 as the door frame 61 is opened, when the door frame 61 is opened for inspection on the main body frame 14 side. The collar 99 does not interfere with the inspection work.

(3) In the above embodiment, the flange 99 is formed at the lower position of the glass frame 76. Of course, theoretically, it is possible to form the flange 99 in a wider range than the above embodiment, that is, in the upper direction of the glass frame 76. However, if the collar portion 99 is formed in a very wide range, if the glass frame 76 is deformed like twist due to aged use or heat, the collar portion 9
9 may interfere with the inner rail 52. However, in the present embodiment, such a problem is unlikely to occur because the collar portion 99 is formed within the minimum necessary range.

(4) Since the collar portion 99 is formed on the glass frame 76 disposed on the back surface of the door frame 61 conventionally, a member added for preventing fraud is intentionally disposed between the door frame 61 and the main body frame 14. Therefore, there is no major design change, and work is not delayed due to the provision of extra members during assembly and inspection.

(5) Since the glass frame 76 has a large opening at the center and a thin member such as the thin frame portion 79, the glass frame 76 has a structure that is relatively easily deformed by twisting or the like. However, the strength is improved by forming the collar portion 99.

(6) The collar 99 protrudes so as to protrude rearward from the rear surface 81B of the glass frame 76, but does not have such a large thickness that it hardly interferes with a member on the game board 27 side arranged in the protruding direction. In addition, when the “escape” is set on the game board 27 side so as not to interfere with the heel portion 99, a large design change is not required.

(7) Since the eaves part 99 is formed at a position very close to the glass plates 77 and 78 along the curve of the glass frame 76, the player passes the eaves part through the glass plates 77 and 78 during the game from the front of the door frame 61. 99 can be visually observed. In other words, since it can be seen from the outside that the anti-fraud measures are being taken, it is possible to expect a deterrent effect to prevent fraud using an elongated tool such as a wire.

(8) Since the inner rail 52 is formed in an arc shape, a vertical component is generated near both the left and right sides. At this time, if the collar part 99 protrudes too long rearward, the door frame 61 may rotate together with the door frame 61, and the collar part 99 may interfere with the inner rail 52 to open the door frame 61. Arise.
However, in the present embodiment, the flange portion 99 is reduced in the protruding amount with the increase in the vertical component near both the left and right sides where the vertical component increases, so that the member interference due to the opening of the door frame 61 does not occur. It has become.

The present invention can be implemented with the following modifications.
As shown in FIG. 25, a string member 121 as a silicone rubber sealing member may be fixed to the upper surface of the collar portion 99. The string member 121 is a solid body having a flexible circular cross section, and is disposed in contact with the rear side glass plate 78 over the entire length of the collar portion 99 in the longitudinal direction.
If such a string member 121 is provided, the following effects can be obtained in addition to the effects of the above embodiment. (1) The space between the inner rail 52 and the collar portion 99 is further narrowed, and it is further difficult to insert an unauthorized operation instrument. (2) By fixing the string member 121 to the base of the collar 99, the strength of the collar 99 itself can be improved. (3) Since the string member 121 is flexible, it can be easily deformed by pressing. Therefore, since there is some width between the inner rail 52 and the flange 99 and the string member 121 partially deforms even when it abuts against the inner rail 52, the door frame 61 is caused by the interference of the string member 121. The problem that the main body frame 14 is not closed is less likely to occur. In addition, by positively contacting the string member 121 to the inner rail 52, it contributes to the improvement of the sealing performance during this time.
In addition, the cross-sectional shape of the string member may be square. Moreover, since it is a square, an attachment surface becomes a plane, and it becomes easy to attach. It is also possible to use an elastic and flexible member such as a sponge other than silicone rubber.

-As shown to Fig.26 (a) and (b), it is also possible to adhere the string member 121 not to the root of the collar part 99 but to the tip end of the collar part 99. FIG. FIG. 26 (a) shows an embodiment in which the overlapping amount of the flange 99 and the inner rail 52 is relatively large. FIG. 26B shows an embodiment in which the overlapping portion 99 and the inner rail 52 are closer, although the overlapping amount is not so much. In such a configuration, the string member 121 becomes invisible to the player by the inner rail 52, so that even if the manipulation tool is skillfully manipulated to sew between the collar 99 and the inner rail 52 to advance, the string is difficult to see. It is extremely difficult for the member 121 to get in the way. Therefore, it becomes more difficult to perform fraud.

As a modification of FIG. 25, the inner rail 52 and the string member 121 may be more closely attached when the door frame 61 is closed. At that time, as shown in FIG. 29, it is also possible to configure the strap member 121 to have a cross-sectional shape that forms an inclined portion 121a inclined in the direction of the inner rail 52. With this configuration, the inclined portion 121a gradually comes into contact with the lower surface of the inner rail 52 as the door frame 61 is closed, and the string member 121 is further pressed. The insertion of the instrument becomes even more difficult. Further, the cord member 121 is not crushed at the front end of the inner rail 52, and the cord member 121 is not peeled off from the collar portion 99 due to excessive frictional force. The shape of the inclined portion 121a is not limited to FIG.

It is also possible to attach the string member 121 to the inner rail 52 side rear surface.
-The string member 121 does not necessarily need to be flexible. This is because the effect (1) can be expected.
-The string member 121 does not need to be arrange | positioned in the full length of the inner rail 52 or the collar part 99. FIG.

As shown in FIG. 25, the sides of the flange portion 99 may be configured with the same width over the entire length without being tapered as in the above embodiment. For example, as shown in FIG. 27, even if the door frame 61 is opened, the collar portion 99 remains in the inner rail 52 even when the door frame 61 is opened.
It is because it should just be sufficiently separated so as not to hit.

In the above embodiment, the flange 99 is formed integrally with the glass frame 76 by molding. However, as shown in FIG. 28, the flange 99 is formed separately and fixed to the rear surface 81B of the glass frame 76. You may do it. Further, the fixing may not be performed with an adhesive, and may be detachable with a fastening member such as a screw 122.

-The structure of the said glass frame 76 is an example, Comprising: It is not limited to this. For example, in the above embodiment, the glass unit 75 is pivotable with respect to the door frame 61 and can be opened and closed. The method for attaching the glass unit 75 to the door frame 61 is not particularly limited. That is, as described above, it is possible to use other fixing means without using the clamp unit 60 and the clamp lever 58.

In the above-described embodiment, the collar portion 99 is formed at the lower position of the glass frame 76, but it is needless to say that the collar portion 99 may be further extended around the formation position.
In the above embodiment, the inner circumference defined by the ridges 82 of the glass frame 76 is substantially elliptical, but it may be circular or square, for example. Further, the collar portion 99 is a flat plate portion 8.
1, and eventually extended along the glass plates 77 and 78, but it is not always necessary to extend along the glass plates 77 and 78.
In the above embodiment, the flange 99 as the protruding portion protrudes from the glass frame 76. However, the present invention is not originally limited to the glass frame 76 as the formation position of the protruding portion.

In the pachinko gaming machine 11 of the above embodiment, the upper receiving tray 67, the lower receiving tray 71,
Although the game ball launching handle 73 has been provided, the present invention is applied to a pachinko gaming machine in which an underlying tray and a game ball launching handle are provided on a panel body separate from the door frame 61. It is also free.
-In the above embodiment, it was applied to a so-called first type pachinko machine with a starter,
Any pachinko gaming machine can be used as long as it can prevent fraud due to the relationship between the rail member and the protrusion formed on the door side.
In the above embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 12 to 14, the tapered portions 99 a are formed near the left and right sides of the collar portion 99, but the pachinko balls falling through the pachinko ball launching passage 49 are the collar portions. If it is intended not to collide with 99, pachinko ball launch passage 4
The tapered portion 99 a may be formed only on the side facing the 9. Moreover, as long as it can avoid the collision of the falling pachinko ball to the collar part 99, it may have a shape other than the tapered part 99a.
In addition, it is free to implement in a mode that does not depart from the spirit of the present invention.
