  DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention (hereinafter referred to as embodiments) will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Note that the same number is assigned to the same element throughout the description of the embodiment.

  FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram showing an inter-sand sandwich which is an example of a support base to which a portable device holder of the present invention is attached. The y direction in the figure is the front of the inter-bed sand. The inter-bed sand is used by being arranged between gaming machines such as pachinko machines, and details thereof are disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2013-176554.

  In FIG. 1, the inter-sand 10 includes a thin box-shaped frame 11, in which a partition board 12, an information guide unit 13, a beverage placement unit 14, and the like are stored. The player pulls out the partition board 12, the information guide plate (not shown), the beverage mounting table (indicated by reference numeral 14A in FIG. 5), and the like from the opening on the front surface of the frame 11 as necessary. Can be used in the game. Here, the partition board 12 can form a space isolated from an adjacent player, and can prevent intrusion of tobacco smoke. And the holder 20 for portable devices is attached to the area | region except the part from which the said partition board 12, the information guide board, 14A of drinks, etc. are pulled out of the front surface of the frame 11. FIG. The portable device holder 20 can hold a portable device (not shown) such as a smartphone in the holding portion 21 and the position and direction of the holding portion 21 so that the player (observer) can easily see the portable device. It can be changed.

  FIG. 2 is an enlarged view showing the overall configuration of the portable device holder 20. In FIG. 2, the portable device holder 20 has a fixing portion 22 that is fixed to the inter-bed sand 10. The fixing portion 22 is fixed to the inter-table sand 10 with screws or an adhesive. An arm 23 is pivotally supported on the fixed portion 22 via a shaft body 22A so as to be swingable. The arm 23 is configured to swing within a vertical plane (yz plane in the figure) around a shaft body 22A disposed horizontally. The tip of the arm 23 is attached to the holding part 21 via a ball joint 30. The ball joint 30 includes a ball 23A formed at the tip of the arm 23 and a socket 21A formed on the holding portion 21 and in spherical contact with the ball 23A.

  Here, the arm 23 has a bent portion B in the vicinity of the holding portion 21, and the bent portion B is convex on the partition board 12 (see FIG. 1) side in the horizontal plane (xy plane in the figure), and on the opposite side. It is bent so as to be concave. When the bent portion B comes into contact with the side wall of the socket 21 </ b> A around the ball joint 30, the rotation of the ball joint 30 is restricted and the position of the holding portion 21 can be restricted. In a state where the rotation of the ball joint 30 is restricted, the partition board 12 can be pulled out from the storage position.

  In the arm 23, a bent tip portion 23Q from the bent portion B to the arm tip is bent at an angle θ with respect to an arm main body 23P from the fixed portion 22 to the bent portion B. Other functions of the bent portion B will be described later. The holding | maintenance part 21 can mount form apparatuses (not shown), such as a smart phone, for example. The holding portion 21 is provided with a placement portion 21B of the portable device and a displacement prevention portion 21C that prevents a lateral displacement of the portable device in a state where the back surface of the portable device is in contact with the front surface.

  Here, FIGS. 3A to 3E are diagrams showing the configuration of the arm 23 of the portable device holder 20. 3 (a) is a top view, FIG. 3 (b) is a front view, FIG. 3 (c) is a rear view, FIG. 3 (d) is a tip side view, and FIG. 3 (e) is a shaft side view. . As shown in FIGS. 3A to 3E, on the shaft body side of the arm 23, a shaft hole 22H into which the shaft body 22A (see FIG. 2) is inserted is formed. A ball 23 </ b> A constituting one of the ball joints 30 is formed on the tip side of the arm 23. Further, as described above, the arm 23 has a bent portion B that is bent in a substantially horizontal plane in the vicinity of the distal end side, and the bent portion B is an arm from the fixed portion 22 (see FIG. 2) side to the bent portion B. A bent distal end portion 23Q from the bent portion B to the distal end of the arm is bent at an angle θ (0 ° <θ <90 °) with respect to the main body 23P. The arm 23 has a plurality of recesses 23 </ b> C formed on the front surface and the back surface in order to reduce the weight.

  FIGS. 4A and 4B are side views showing a portion that supports the arm 23 of the fixed portion 22. 4A shows a case where the arm 23 is arranged almost vertically (with the holding portion 21 facing upward), and FIG. 4B shows a case where the arm 23 is arranged almost horizontally. . As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, the arm 23 has a side surface 23S formed of an arc surface substantially concentric with the shaft body 22A around the shaft body 22A, and a fixed portion in the vicinity of the shaft body 22A. A leaf spring 40 that contacts the side surface 23 </ b> S of the arm 23 is attached to 22.

  The plate spring 40 is fixed to the fixed portion 22 at one end, and presses the contact portion with the side surface 23S of the arm 23 by the elasticity of the plate spring 40 at the other end. The contact portion of the leaf spring 40 with the side surface 23S of the arm 23 has an arc-shaped convex portion 40A that protrudes toward the arm 23 side. Then, on the side surface 23S of the arm 23 around the shaft body 22A, when the arm 23 is disposed substantially vertically (see FIG. 4A), the first concave portion 23M into which the convex portion 40A of the leaf spring 40 fits. When the arm 23 is disposed substantially horizontally (see FIG. 4B), a second recess 23N into which the protrusion 40A of the leaf spring 40 fits is formed. As a result, the fixing portion 22 can be provided with a lock mechanism including, for example, a leaf spring 40 that holds a fixed position at two locations in the process of swinging the arm 23. Note that the holding of the fixed position in the swing of the arm 23 is not necessarily limited to two places, and may be more than that. In short, it is sufficient if there are at least two places where the fixed position can be held in the swing of the arm 23.

  By providing the above-described locking mechanism of the arm 23 in the fixing portion 22, the following effects can be obtained. FIG. 5 (a) shows a beverage placement table 14A pulled out forward (in the y direction in the figure) from a beverage placement unit 14 attached to the inter-sand sandwich 10, and a beverage 50 or the like placed on the beverage placement table 14A. The case where the figurine is mounted is shown. The placed object is supported by the inter-bed sand 10 adjacent to the partition board 12. In this case, the portable device holder 20 fixed immediately above the beverage mounting unit 14 of the inter-bed sand 10 oscillates the arm 23 substantially vertically in advance without interfering with the beverage 50 and locks the position thereof. It can be held by a mechanism. The holding part 21 attached to the tip of the arm 23 is positioned above the drink 50, and a portable device (not shown) mounted on the holding part 21 can be observed.

  In addition, when 14 A of drinks mounting bases 14A are not pulled out from the inter-sand sandwich 10, the arm 23 of the holder 20 for portable devices can be arrange | positioned substantially horizontally. This is because there is no concern that the arm 23 and the holding portion 21 of the portable device holder 20 interfere with the beverage 50 mounted on the beverage mounting table 14A. However, as shown in FIG. 5 (b), even when the beverage mounting table 14A is pulled out from the inter-bed sand 10, the arm 23 is formed with the bent portion B in the vicinity of the holding portion 21 as described above. Therefore, the bent portion B prevents interference between the arm 23 and the beverage 50, and the holding portion 21 at the tip of the arm 23 can be disposed in front of the beverage 50, and the position is held by the lock mechanism. It can be done. Thereby, the player can observe the portable device mounted on the holding unit 21 without feeling inconvenience in taking out the beverage 50 arranged behind the holding unit 21.

  Here, since the bent portion B is formed in the vicinity of the holding portion 21 in the arm 23, the holding portion 21 can be changed to a player side in a wide angle range without being interfered by the partition board 12. . 6A, 6 </ b> B, and 6 </ b> C are views of the portable device holder 20 as viewed from above. First, as shown in FIG. 6A, the holding portion 21 is rotated at the maximum displacement angle (+ ε) toward the partition board 12 with respect to the extension line of the bent tip portion 23Q of the arm 23. In this case, the holding portion 21 is rotated at an angle α toward the player side with respect to the extension line of the arm body 23P without interfering with the partition board 12.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 6B, by rotating the holding portion 21 to the player side at an angle (−ε), the holding portion 21 has an angle β (> with respect to the extension line of the arm body 23P. Rotation is made at α). In this case, the angle β is equal to the bending angle θ of the bending tip portion 23Q with respect to the arm body 23P. Then, as shown in FIG. 6C, by rotating the holding portion 21 further toward the player side at an angle (−ε), the holding portion 21 has an angle γ (>) with respect to the extension line of the arm body 23P. Rotation is made at β). Thereby, the holding | maintenance part 21 can be comprised so that it may have a smaller rotation amount in the rotation direction to the convex side of the bending part B than the rotation direction to the concave side of the bending part B. Therefore, the portable device holder 20 can change the direction in a wide angle range (2ε) toward the player without interfering with the adjacent partition board 12.

  Note that the arm 23 of the portable device holder 20 is lowered as it goes to the distal end side (the side where the ball 23A is formed) as shown in FIGS. 3B, 3C, 3D, and 3E. To be bent. This prevents the door from interfering with the holding portion 21 attached to the tip of the arm 23 when the door of the pachinko machine is opened.

  As mentioned above, although this invention was demonstrated using embodiment, it cannot be overemphasized that the technical scope of this invention is not limited to the range as described in the said embodiment. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications or improvements can be added to the above-described embodiments. Further, it is apparent from the description of the scope of claims that embodiments with such changes or improvements can also be included in the technical scope of the present invention.
