(Claim 7).

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the discharge portion for discharging the recording medium and the storage portion are overlapped in the front-rear direction, thereby saving space in the left-right direction compared to the configuration in which the discharge portion and the storage portion are separated in the left-right direction. be able to. Furthermore, since the storage portion is located in front of the discharge portion, it is possible to make it difficult to remove the recording medium discharged from the discharge portion from the front. Thereby, even if a person different from the player thinks to steal the recording medium, the recording medium is difficult to steal due to the presence of the accommodating portion.
As described above, it is possible to suppress theft of the recording medium while saving space by stacking the storage portion and the discharge portion in the front-rear direction.

When the recording medium is discharged from the discharge portion, the recording medium protrudes forward, and thus there is a possibility that the discharge of the recording medium may be hindered by the storage portion. In this regard, if the configuration of the first aspect is adopted, the accommodating portion can be moved back and forth, so that the accommodating portion and the recording medium come into contact with each other, and the accommodating portion and the recording medium can be prevented from being damaged.
Further, the front and rear positions of the storage unit may be adjusted according to the discharge amount of the recording medium of the discharge unit, and the storage unit can function as various storage units.

In such a case, it is possible to reduce the risk of damage to the storage unit or the recording medium.

When the storage part is present in front of the discharge part, there is a problem that it becomes difficult for the player to collect the recording medium. On the other hand, according to the second aspect of the invention, the storage portion can be retracted from the position where it overlaps with the discharge portion in the front-rear direction, so that the player who owns the recording medium collects the recording medium. In this case, it is only necessary to move the storage unit, and it is possible to suppress the difficulty in collecting the recording medium due to the presence of the storage unit.
While receiving portion theft suppressing effect remains and going on the effects and recording medium space saving of the second position is no longer sufficiently obtained, according to the third aspect of the invention, the housing part By energizing it so that it overlaps with the discharge part before and after the player collects the recording medium, the storage part naturally overlaps with the discharge part before and after, so the effect of saving space and theft of the recording medium The effect which suppresses can be acquired favorably.

According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, the recording medium discharged from the discharge portion can be covered with the storage portion when viewed in the front-rear direction, and can be sandwiched between the player and the holding means when viewed in the left-right direction. Thereby, it is possible to suppress the theft of the recording medium not only from the front but also from the left and right directions. And since the structure for suppressing the theft of the recording medium from the left and right direction can be shared by the holding means of the housing portion, it is necessary to provide an extra part for suppressing the theft of the recording medium from the left and right direction. Can be reduced.

I want to play a game without looking at the screen of the mobile terminal, such as a player who wants to play while looking at the screen of the mobile terminal and wants to play without worrying about time because the time etc. is displayed on the mobile terminal It is possible that a player exists. In the housing portion of the invention of claim 5, since the installation portion capable of adjusting the orientation of the screen of the portable terminal is provided, it is possible to widely answer the player's demands.

  With respect to the lending machine 2, the unit machine 3 is arranged in parallel, for example, in contact with the left side, and has a vertically long rectangular parallelepiped shape like the lending machine 2. As shown in FIG. 1, the unit machine 3 is provided with an air purifier 30, a POP accommodation unit 31, and a player accommodation device 32 in order from the upper side.

  The air cleaner 30 includes a fan (not shown), and is configured to blow out the purified air from the air outlet 30 a on the front upper side of the unit machine 3. The POP storage unit 31 is a vertically long storage space in which a POP advertisement (not shown) such as a commentary on a game of the gaming machine 1 is stored. The POP advertisement is attached to the locking portion 31a on the POP accommodating portion 31 through a strap (not shown). The player storage device 32 can store the player's belongings, and also functions as a drink holder for the cup C shown in FIG. The player accommodation device 32 will be described in detail with reference to FIGS.

  As shown in FIGS. 2B and 3A, the player accommodation device 32 is provided with an attachment cylinder frame 33 assembled to the lower end portion of the unit machine 3 and withdrawable to the attachment cylinder frame 33. The slide base 35 is provided, and an accommodating portion 36 that is connected to the front portion of the slide base 35.

  The mounting cylinder frame 33 is set to a width dimension that fits in the width direction of the unit machine 3 (left-right direction in FIG. 2A), and has a narrow width extending in the front-rear direction (left-right direction in FIG. 2B). It has a rectangular cylindrical shape. A pair of upper and lower slide grooves 37u and 37d are formed on the left and right side wall portions 33a and 33b of the mounting cylinder frame 33 so as to face each other. As shown in FIG. 2B, the slide grooves 37u and 37d extend in the front-rear direction, and inclined portions 38u and 38d that are inclined obliquely forward and downward are formed at respective front end portions. As will be described in detail later, the small protrusions 35u, 35d of the slide base 35 are detachably locked to the inclined portions 38u, 38d of the slide grooves 37u, 37d, so that the slide base 35 is at the drawer end. Retained.

  The slide base 35 has a configuration in which a base 40 having a dimension and shape that is in sliding contact with the inner wall portion of the mounting cylinder frame 33 and a main body 41 are connected in the front-rear direction. Specifically, the base 40 at the rear of the slide base 35 integrally includes a pair of upper and lower small protrusions 35u and 35d protruding to the right side and a similar small protrusion (not shown) protruding to the left side. The slide base 35 is accommodated in the mounting cylinder frame 33 so that the small protrusions 35u and 35d of the base 40 are fitted in the slide grooves 37u and 37d. In this case, the slide base 35 has a storage position (see FIG. 3A) in which the base 40 and the main body 41 are stored in the mounting cylinder frame 33, and small protrusions 35u and 35d at the inclined portions 38u and 38d. Slide between the pulled-out position until it is locked. Thereby, the mounting cylinder frame 33 and the slide base 35 constitute a front / rear moving mechanism 39 that enables the housing portion 36 to move back and forth. Moreover, in the drawer position of the slide base 35, the accommodating part 36 is located in the 1st position which overlaps back and forth ahead of the said card insertion port 24 (refer Fig.2 (a)).

  The base portion 40 of the slide base 35 is provided with a pivotal support portion 42 located at the front end portion. The pivotal support portion 42 supports the main body portion 41 so as to be swingable about the vertical axis 42L (see FIG. 2B). Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4, the pivotal portion 42 includes a semicircular portion 43 that is exposed from the mounting cylinder frame 33 at the drawing position of the slide base 35, a first contact portion 431 provided at the right end portion thereof, And a second contact portion 432 provided at the left end portion.

  At the rear end portion of the main body portion 41 of the slide base 35, a pivotal support portion including a cutout portion 44 along the semicircular portion 43 of the base portion 40 is provided. When the right end portion 441 of the notch 44 in the main body 41 is brought into contact with the first contact portion 431 of the base portion 40, the housing portion 36 is in a first position that overlaps in front and rear in front of the card insertion slot 24 ( (See FIG. 2 (a)). On the other hand, when the left end 442 of the notch 44 in the main body 41 is brought into contact with the second contact part 432 of the base 40, the housing part 36 is retracted from the state where it overlaps the card insertion slot 24 in the front-rear direction. There are two positions (see FIG. 4).

  Further, the slide base 35 is provided with urging means (not shown) that urges the accommodating portion 36 to move from the second position to the first position. This urging means is composed of, for example, a torsion coil spring spanned between the main body 41 and the base 40. Thus, the slide base 35 is maintained in a posture in which the main body 41 is linearly connected to the base 40 in the front-rear direction at the first position by the biasing force of the biasing means. In addition, the slide base 35 has a posture in which the main body 41 is inclined to the left side by, for example, 30 degrees with respect to the base 40 at the second position. The pivotal support part 42, the pivoted support part, and the urging means constitute a retreat movement mechanism 45 that allows the accommodating part 36 to move between the first position and the second position. The slide base 35 constitutes a holding unit that holds the accommodating portion 36 at a position in front of the card insertion slot 24.

  Here, a supplementary explanation of the positional relationship between the slide base 35 and the card insertion slot 24 will be given. It is assumed that the player plays a game in front of the gaming machine 1 as is well known. In this case, a rental machine 2 corresponding to the gaming machine 1 is provided on the left side with respect to the gaming machine 1, and a unit machine 3 is further provided on the left side thereof. That is, the unit machine 3 is provided outside the lending machine 2 with respect to the corresponding gaming machine 1. The slide base 35 is arranged so as to be at the same height as the card insertion slot 24. With this configuration, the slide base 35 extends in the front-rear direction outside the side of the card insertion slot 24, and when the IC card 7 is ejected from the card insertion slot 24, the IC card 7 is inserted into the slide base 35. And between players.

  As shown in FIGS. 2B and 3B, a storage recess 46 for the storage portion 36 is provided in the front half of the main body 41 of the slide base 35. Shaft support portions 47a and 47b are provided at the upper end portions of the wall portions 46a and 46b before and after the storage recess 46, respectively. As shown in FIG. 2B, the shaft support portions 47a and 47b support the shaft portions 50a and 50b of the frame body 50 of the housing portion 36 so as to be rotatable around an axis 47L in the front-rear direction. In addition, a torsion coil spring 47 that urges the frame 50 in the counterclockwise direction (in the direction of arrow D1 in FIG. 3C) when viewed from the front is disposed on the rear shaft support portion 47b. The bottom wall portion 46 c of the storage recess 46 has a stepped shape, and stores the arm portion 51 of the housing portion 36 so as not to interfere with the frame body 50. Further, on the lower surface side of the bottom wall portion 46c, there is provided a shaft support portion 48 that supports the arm portion 51 so as to be swingable about an axis 46L (see FIG. 2B) in the vertical direction. The shaft support 48 is provided with a torsion coil spring (not shown) that urges the arm 51 to the side (in the direction of arrow D2 in FIG. 3B).

  As shown in FIG. 3A, the front surface portion 49 of the slide base 35 is exposed from the mounting cylinder frame 33 at the accommodation position, and a vertical knob 49 a is provided on the front surface portion 49. Is provided. Now, the accommodating part 36 of this embodiment is comprised so that the portable terminal and the cup C of drink may be accommodated by the frame 50 which makes | forms rectangular shape, and the arm part 51 below it. The frame body 50 of the housing portion 36 is formed so that the main surface portion 50c surrounds the housing (see FIGS. 2 (a) and 3 (c)). That is, the frame 50 has a shape in which the main surface portion 50c is along the vertical direction in a state of surrounding the accommodation. In addition, the frame 50 is supported by the shaft support portions 47a and 47b, so that the storage position stored in the storage recess 46 of the slide base 35 and one side thereof is the upper edge 46d of the storage recess 46 (FIG. 3 ( b) Refers to (c)) and rotates between the overhanging positions locked in a horizontal state. In this case, since the frame 50 is constantly urged toward the extended position by the torsion coil spring 47, the horizontal state at the extended position is maintained.

  Further, the frame 50 has a width dimension (vertical dimension in FIG. 3C) of the main surface portion 50c that is slightly smaller in the rear W2 than in the front W1 (W1> W2), and as it goes rearward. It has an inclined structure that narrows the width. For this reason, when storing the frame 50, it can be smoothly rotated in the storing direction (the direction opposite to D1). In addition, this makes it possible to reduce the force necessary for the rotation of the frame body 50 and to supplement the overall rigidity with the W1 portion having a relatively wide width, thereby preventing the frame body 50 from being damaged.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the arm portion 51 of the accommodating portion 36 has a narrow plate shape that is set to have substantially the same width as the bottom wall portion 46 c of the storage recess 46. The arm 51 is supported by the shaft support 48 at the rear end thereof, so that the arm 51 is tilted 60 degrees with respect to the storage position stored in the bottom wall 46 c of the storage recess 46 and the main body 41 of the slide base 35. Swings between the extended position. In this case, the arm portion 51 is always urged toward the extended position by the torsion coil spring in the shaft support portion 48, and the property (for example, a mobile phone or a cigarette box) together with the frame 50 at the extended position. And a housing portion 36 suitable for housing a beverage container.

  The longitudinal dimension of the arm 51 is set so as not to protrude from the frame 50 in plan view (see FIG. 4), and the width of the arm 51 is the storage recess 46 (main body 41). It is almost the same as the width dimension. The arm portion 51 has a rear end portion as a swing center, and when the slide base 35 is stored rearward, the outer edge portion of the arm portion 51 comes into contact with the front opening of the mounting cylinder frame 33, so Swings in the direction opposite to D2. Thus, the arm portion 51 is configured to automatically return to the storage position by swinging in the storage direction against the urging force of the torsion coil spring when the slide base 35 is pushed backward.

  A plurality of groove portions 511, 512 a, and 512 b recessed downward are provided on the upper surface portion of the arm portion 51. The first groove portion 511 as the first installation portion is formed so as to be inclined obliquely with respect to the front-rear direction (the extending direction of the main body portion 41) at the projecting position of the arm portion 51 (FIG. 3C). ), See FIG. For this reason, when a portable terminal (not shown) having a plate shape and having a screen formed on the plate surface is accommodated in the accommodating portion 36 and the lower end portion of the portable terminal is placed in accordance with the first groove portion 511, It is installed with the terminal screen facing the player. Further, the second groove portions 512a and 512b, which are the second installation portions, are formed so as to extend in the front-rear direction at the projecting position of the arm portion 51. For this reason, if the lower end part of a portable terminal is mounted according to 2nd groove part 512a, 512b, it will be installed in the state in which the screen of a portable terminal is not suitable for a player.

Next, the operation of the above configuration will be described.
First, when the storage device 32 is not used, the slide base 35 is in a storage position where only the front surface portion 49 is exposed as shown in FIG. Further, the frame body 50 and the arm portion 51 of the accommodating portion 36 are both stored in the storage recess 46 of the slide base 35. Therefore, in this state, when the player inserts the IC card 7 into the card insertion slot 24 of the lending machine 2, the accommodation unit 36 does not get in the way.

  When the player uses the storage unit 36, the player first picks the knob 49a of the front surface 49 of the storage device 32 and pulls it forward. Thereby, when the arm portion 51 is exposed as the slide base 35 is pulled forward, the arm portion 51 is swung in the direction of the arrow D2 in FIG. 3B by the biasing force of the torsion coil spring. The arm part 51 automatically projects to the projecting position. Next, when the frame 50 is exposed, the frame 50 is automatically extended to the extended position side by rotating in the direction of the arrow D1 in FIG. 3C by the biasing force of the torsion coil spring 47. .

  Thus, when the slide base 35 is pulled forward, the frame body 50 and the arm portion 51 of the housing portion 36 are both in the first position (extension position) that overlaps the insertion slot 24 in front of and behind the card insertion slot 24. Located (see FIG. 2A). In this case, the slide base 35 is reliably pulled out to a position where the small protrusions 35u and 35d are locked to the inclined portions 38u and 38d (front end portions) of the slide grooves 37u and 37d (see FIG. 2B). ). In this case, the urging means of the retreat movement mechanism 45 maintains the posture in which the slide base 35 extends in the front-rear direction, so that the player stably places the cup C, the mobile phone, etc. in the accommodation portion 36. be able to.

  Here, it is assumed that the slide base 35 is moved rearward with the cup C placed in the accommodating portion 36. That is, when the player carelessly pushes the slide base 35, the main surface portion 50c of the frame 50 in the accommodating portion 36 is locked to the front edge portion of the mounting cylinder frame 33 (FIG. 3C). (See)), further movement of the slide base 35 is prevented. Further, in a contact state of the main surface portion 50c with the mounting cylinder frame 33, the arm portion 51 does not protrude from the frame body 50 in a plan view and does not come into contact with other members such as the mounting cylinder frame 33. Therefore, it does not swing. For this reason, it can prevent that the malfunction that the drink in the cup C spills arises.

  When the player closes the storage portion 36, the player places his / her finger on the frame 50 and tilts it toward the storage position. In this case, since the frame 50 has a structure (see W1 and W2) that rotates smoothly as described above, the frame 50 can be easily brought down to the storage position. In this state, when the slide base 35 is pushed rearward, the arm portion 51 of the housing portion 36 comes into contact with the front opening of the mounting cylinder frame 33 and resists the urging force of the torsion coil spring. It is automatically stored by swinging to the side. Thereby, the slide base 35 can be accommodated in the accommodation position in a state where the accommodation portion 36 is stored.

  The retracting movement mechanism 45 urges the accommodating portion 36 to move from the second position to the first position. By energizing the accommodating portion 36 so as to overlap the discharge portion in the front and rear, the player naturally collects the IC card 7 after the player collects the IC card 7, so that the storage portion 36 naturally overlaps with the discharge portion. The effect and the effect which suppresses the theft of IC card 7 can be acquired favorably.

  A holding means is provided for extending the IC card 7 discharged by the discharging unit in the front-rear position at a position between the player and the holding unit 36 at a position in front of the discharging unit. According to this, when the IC card 7 discharged from the discharge portion is viewed in the front-rear direction, it can be covered with the storage portion 36, and when viewed in the left-right direction, it can be sandwiched between the player and the holding means. Thereby, it is possible to suppress the theft of the IC card 7 not only from the front but also from the left and right directions. And since the structure for suppressing the theft of the IC card 7 from the left and right direction can be shared by the holding means of the housing portion 36, extra parts for suppressing the theft of the IC card 7 from the left and right direction, etc. The necessity to provide can be reduced.

  In the housing portion 36, a first groove portion 511 that can be installed in a state where the screen of the plate-like portable terminal that is the player's property is facing the player, and the screen of the portable terminal is more playable than the first groove portion 511. 2nd groove part 512a, 512b which can be installed in the state which is not suitable for a person is provided. According to this, since the installation parts 511, 512a, and 512b capable of adjusting the orientation of the screen of the portable terminal are provided, it is possible to widely answer the player's demands.
