The second symbol display device 41 that variably displays the second symbol (for example, a normal symbol) triggered by the passage of the third start opening 34, and winnings on the first start opening 33a and the second start opening 33b A third symbol display device 42 that variably displays a third symbol (for example, a decorative symbol) is provided as a trigger.

  The first symbol display device 40 is, for example, a plurality of (two in the present embodiment) two-color light emitting type LEDs (light emitting diodes) 40a, which perform variable light emission etc. based on entering the first start opening 33a. 40b and the suspension display unit 40c displayed on the third symbol display device 42, which indicates the number of suspension of the variable display in the LEDs 40a and 40b, and the variable light emission etc. based on the ball entering the second starting opening 33b The third symbol display device 42 displays a screen showing a plurality of (two in the present embodiment) two-color light emitting type LEDs (light emitting diodes) 40d and 40e and the number of pending variable displays on the LEDs 40d and 40e. And an on-hold display unit 40f.

  The LEDs 40a and 40b that emit light in a variable manner, for example, can emit light in red and blue based on entering the first start opening 33a. The first symbol display device 40 generates a variation display state of the first symbol (the light emission color aspect of each of the LEDs 40a and 40b in the present embodiment) by alternately changing the light emission color of each of the LEDs 40a and 40b. When both LEDs 40a and 40b stop in red light state, it shows a definite big hit (specificity), and when both LEDs 40a and 40b stop in blue light state usually shows big hit (non specific), both LEDs 40a, 40b When it stops in the light emission state of the different color, it shows the detachment.

  Similarly to the above, the LEDs 40d and 40e that perform variable light emission and the like based on entering the second start port 33b are, for example, capable of emitting red and blue light. The first symbol display device 40 generates a variation display state of the first symbol (in the present embodiment, the emission color mode of each of the LEDs 40d and 40e) by alternately changing the emission color of each of the LEDs 40d and 40e, for example, When both LEDs 40d and 40e stop in the red light state, it shows a definite big hit (specificity), and when both LEDs 40d and 40e stop in the blue light state usually shows big hit (non specific), both LEDs 40d, 40e When it stops in the light emission state of the different color, it shows the detachment.

  In addition, a single LED of a type capable of emitting light of at least three or more colors may be adopted as the first symbol display device 40, and by alternately emitting light of each color, or the like, the first symbol When the LED is stopped in the light emitting state of the first color, it indicates a definite change big hit (per specific), and when the LED is stopped in the light emitting state for the second color, it usually indicates big hit (non-specified per unit) When the LED is stopped in the light emission state of the third color, the LED may indicate detachment. The first symbol display device 40 described above corresponds to the identification information change display means in the present invention.

  The second symbol display device 41 has a display portion 41a on which, for example, "o" is drawn for the second symbol, a display portion 41b on which "x" is drawn for the second symbol, and a third symbol display. Each time the game ball passes through the third starting opening 34, for example, the display symbol (normal symbol) by the display portions 41a and 41b changes, and the change display is performed. The second start port 33b on the lower side is configured to be in an operating state (opened) for a predetermined time when it is stopped with a predetermined symbol. The number of times the game ball passes the third starting opening 34 is suspended up to four times, and the number of times of suspension is displayed on the suspension display portion 41c. The display units 41a and 41b have LEDs (light emitting diodes) therein, and are configured to be variably displayed by switching the light emission of the LEDs (or the lighting of the lamps). The second symbol display device 41 described above corresponds to the ordinary identification information change display means in the present invention.

  The third symbol display device 42 is, for example, a liquid crystal display device, and the display content is controlled by a display control device 45 described later. The third symbol display device 42 displays, for example, three decorative symbol rows (not shown) on the left, middle and right. Each decorative symbol row (not shown) is constituted by a plurality of decorative symbols, and these decorative symbols are variably displayed on the third symbol display device 42 so as to be scrolled for each of the decorative symbol rows (not shown). In the present embodiment, the third symbol display device 42 (liquid crystal display device) includes, for example, a 11-inch large liquid crystal display. In the variable display unit 35, a center frame 47 is disposed on the front side of the third symbol display device 42 so as to substantially surround the display screen of the third symbol display device 42 when viewed from the front. In the present embodiment, an LCD is employed as the third symbol display device 42, but other types of image display devices (for example, PDP: plasma display panel, EL: electro luminescence display, organic EL, etc.) may be used. . The above-described third symbol display device 42 corresponds to the decoration identification information (pattern) variation display means in the present invention, and the display control device 45 described above corresponds to the display control means in the present invention.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the variable winning device 32 is normally in a closed state in which the gaming ball can not win or is difficult to win, and repeatedly operates in an open state in which the gaming ball easily wins in the case of a big hit and a normal closed state. It is As described above, the state in which the variable winning device 32 is repeatedly operated to the open state and the normal closing state in the case of a big hit is called a specific gaming state (for example, a big hit state). Since the ball enters the ball (winning) and a large number of gaming balls are paid out for the winning, the gaming state is advantageous for the player. That is, in the pachinko machine 10 of this embodiment, the number of inserted game balls (the number of shots of the game ball to the game area 30a by the game ball launcher 38) , Normal gaming state (playing ball consumption state) greater than the number of prize balls paid out based on the entry of the gaming balls into the variable winning device 32, the start winning device 33, the third starting port 34, etc. A state transition can be made to a specific gaming state (for example, a big hit state) in which the number of ball payouts is greater than the number of game balls inserted.

  More specifically, when the gaming ball wins against the first starting opening 33a, the two LEDs 40a and 40b of the first symbol display device 40 are variably displayed, and the display of the LEDs 40a and 40b after the variation stop is preset light emission When it becomes a combination of the modes, a specific gaming state occurs. For example, in the case of the light emission mode that both LEDs 40a and 40b stop in the red light emission state, it indicates that the specific game state of the probability variation big hit (specific hit) is won, and both LEDs 40a and 40b stop in the blue light emission state In the case of the light emission mode, it indicates that the player has won the specific gaming state which is usually a big hit (non-specificity), and in the case of the light emission mode in which both LEDs 40a and 40b stop at the light emission state of different colors. Indicates that the player has been defeated in the specific gaming state.

  Similarly to the above, when the game ball wins against the second starting opening 33b, the two LEDs 40d and 40e of the first symbol display device 40 are variably displayed, and the display of the LEDs 40d and 40e after the variation stop is preset When it becomes a combination of the light emission mode, a specific gaming state occurs. For example, in the case of the light emission mode that both LEDs 40d and 40e stop in the red light emission state, it indicates that the specific gaming state of the probability variation big hit (specific hit) is won, and both LEDs 40d and 40e stop in the blue light emission state In the case of the light emission mode, it indicates that the player has won the specific gaming state which is usually a big hit (non-specificity), and in the case of the light emission mode in which both LEDs 40d and 40e stop at the light emission state of different colors. Indicates that the player has been defeated in the specific gaming state.

  Then, the variable winning device 32 is configured such that the big winning opening 32a is in a predetermined open state, and the gaming ball is in a state of being easy to win (big hit state). Specifically, with the elapse of a predetermined time for the open state or a predetermined number of winnings as one round, the special winning opening 32a of the variable winning device 32 is repeatedly opened a predetermined number of times (the number of rounds). Further, the number of times the gaming ball passes through the first starting opening 33a is suspended up to four times, and the number of times of suspension is displayed on the suspension display portion 40c. Further, the number of times the game ball passes through the second starting opening 33b is also suspended up to four times, and the number of times of suspension is displayed on the suspension display portion 40f. Although the hold display units 40c and 40f are supposed to be put on hold display on a part of the display screen of the third symbol display device 42, they may be lit and displayed using a hold lamp or the like.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 4, a plurality of rails 51 and 52 for guiding the game balls fired from the game ball launch device 38 (see FIG. 3) to the upper part of the game board 30 are attached to the game board 30. The game balls fired along with the turning operation of the game ball firing handle 18 are guided to a predetermined game area 30a through a ball guide passage 49 described later of the plurality of rails 51 and 52. The plurality of rails 51 and 52 are long strip-shaped stainless steel metal strip members, and are attached to the game board 30 both inside and outside. The inner rail 51 is formed in a substantially vertical oval ring shape except for about 1⁄4 of the upper side. The outer rail 52 is formed such that a part (mainly the left side) faces the inner rail 51. In such a case, the inner rail 51 and the outer rail 52 constitute a guide rail, and the portions 51 (52) parallel to each other with a predetermined distance (portion on the left side) form the ball guide passage 49. . The ball guiding passage 49 is formed in the shape of a groove having a contact surface with the game board 30, that is, the shape of a groove whose front side is opened.

  A return ball preventing member 53 is attached to the end portion (upper left portion in FIG. 4) of the inner rail 51. As a result, it is possible to prevent the game ball guided to the upper part of the game board 30 from the ball guide passage 49 between the inner rail 51 and the outer rail 52 from being returned to the ball guide passage 49 again. In addition, in a state where the game board 30 is attached to the inner frame 12, at a position corresponding to the maximum flight portion of the game ball in the outer rail 52 (upper right portion in FIG. 4: a portion corresponding to the tip portion of the outer rail 52) Is located at a return rubber 54 (a member shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 4) provided on the inner frame 12. Therefore, the game ball fired with a predetermined momentum or more strikes the return rubber 54 and is rebounded. Since the outer rail 52 is a long stainless steel metal band, the flight of the gaming ball can be made smoother, that is, the frictional resistance of the gaming ball can be reduced. As indicated by a broken line in FIG. 4, a wall 60 (indicated by a broken line in FIG. 4) formed on the inner frame 12 is located from the end of the outer rail 52 to the right end of the inner rail 51.

  The above-mentioned outer frame 11 corresponds to a component to be attached in the present invention, the above-mentioned curtain plate 310 corresponds to a first member in the present invention, and the above-mentioned inner frame 12 corresponds to a second member in the present invention, The top plate portion 330 described above corresponds to the top surface portion in the present invention, the entry prevention wall part 340 described above corresponds to the entry prevention portion in the present invention, and the game ball allowable space 350 described above is the game ball allowable space 350 in the present invention The above-mentioned back wall 341 corresponds to the standing wall portion in the present invention, the above-mentioned projecting upper plate 342 corresponds to the projecting plate portion in the present invention, and the above-mentioned partition wall 332 is the partition in the present invention It corresponds to the department.

  Here, when the inner frame 12 is closed, the gaming ball B located at a place other than the left end on the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310 is allowed (entered) in the gaming ball permissible space 350 of the entry prevention wall part 340 Will be described with reference to the drawings.

  First, when the inner frame 12 is opened or closed, the game ball B falls from the inner frame 12 or the like onto the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310, and the game ball B is present on the top plate portion 330 at locations other than the left end. There is something to do.

  Then, when the inner frame 12 is closed in a state where the game ball B is present at a place other than the left end on the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310, the inner frame 12 positions the place at the place other than the left end on the top plate portion 330. The game ball B is pushed back toward the entry prevention wall part 340.

  At this time, the game ball B located at a position other than the left end on the top plate portion 330 climbs the inclined surface 331 of the top plate portion 330 by backing by the inner frame 12, and FIGS. 5, 12 and 13. As shown, the game ball allowed space 350 is entered or the game ball allowed space 350 is approached.

  Subsequently, when the inner frame 12 is completely closed with respect to the outer frame 11, as shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, the game is located on the top plate portion 330 backed by the inner frame 12 except for the left end. The ball B is maintained in a state where it finally enters the gaming ball permissible space 350.

  As shown in FIG. 13 (b), the gaming ball B permitted in the gaming ball permissible space 350 can be moved in the depth direction, so it will not be sandwiched between the inner frame 12 and the entry prevention wall part 340. .

  Further, as shown in FIG. 13B, a metal member 12b that reinforces the inner frame 12 and is connected to ground is provided at the lower portion on the back surface side of the inner frame 12 facing the entry prevention wall part 340. ing. Further, as shown in FIG. 13B, the game ball B allowed in the game ball permission space 350 is located on the inclined surface 331, so when the inner frame 12 is opened, the inclined surface 331 is It descends and is discharged from the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 13B, the game ball B placed in the game ball permissible space 350 is in contact with the metal member 12b of the inner frame 12, and the charge of the charged game ball B is a metal member It is possible to discharge through 12b.

  Next, with reference to the drawings, it will be described that the game ball B located at the left end on the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310 rides on the entry prevention wall part 340 when the inner frame 12 is closed.

  First, when the inner frame 12 is opened or closed, the game ball B falls from the inner frame 12 or the like onto the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310, and the game ball B is present at the left end on the top plate portion 330. There is.

  Then, when the inner frame 12 is closed in a state where the game ball B is present at the left end on the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310, as shown in FIG. The game ball B located at the upper left end is pushed back and moved toward the entry prevention wall part 340.

  At this time, the game ball B located at the left end on the top plate portion 330 climbs the upward guiding inclined surface 333 of the top plate portion 330 by backing by the inner frame 12, as shown in FIG. 16 (b) The vehicle may ride on the upper surface of the anti-entry wall part 340 or move forward in the direction of the arrow in FIG.

  Subsequently, when the inner frame 12 is completely closed with respect to the outer frame 11, as shown in FIG. 16 (b), the game ball B located at the left end on the top plate 330 backed by the inner frame 12 is shown. And is maintained in contact with the metal member 12b on the lower surface side lower portion of the inner frame 12 while riding on the upper surface of the anti-intrusion wall part 340, or as shown by the arrow in FIG. To

  The game ball B riding on the upper surface of the entry prevention wall part 340 is movable in the depth direction as shown in FIG. 16 (b), as the front side is in contact with the metal member 12b of the inner frame 12. It will not be in the state of being sandwiched by the frame 12 and the entry prevention wall part 340.

  In addition, since the game ball B riding on the upper surface of the entry prevention wall part 340 is located on the upper inclined surface 343, as shown in FIG. 16 (b), when the inner frame 12 is opened, the upper inclination It descends from the surface 343 and is discharged from the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310.

  As described above, according to the pachinko machine 10 of the first embodiment, the outer frame 11 which forms the outer shell of the pachinko machine 10 and is fixed to the game island of the game arcade, and the bottom plate 11b of the outer frame 11 , And an inner frame 12 that can be opened and closed with respect to the outer frame 11 on the shutter plate 310. In the position where it is the closing direction side of the inner frame 12 with respect to the top plate portion 330 located at the upper side and is opposed to the lower portion of the back surface of the inner frame 12 in the closed state The entry prevention wall part 340 is provided with a game ball permissible space 350 into which the game balls B on the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310 enter when the inner frame 12 is closed.

  Therefore, even if the inner frame 12 is closed while the gaming ball B is present on the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310, the gaming ball B enters the gaming ball permissible space 350, so when closing the inner frame 12 The ball B is not pinched by the inner frame 12 and the entry preventing wall part 340, and breakage of the inner frame 12 or the entry preventing wall part 340 due to the pinching of the game ball B can be reduced. In addition, even if trying to insert incorrect tools from the gap between the inner frame 12 and the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310, the entry preventing wall part 340 can block the entry, and the gap between the inner frame 12 and the curtain plate 310 Entry of unauthorized equipment from the

  Further, in a state where the inner frame 12 is closed to the outer frame 11, a rod member having rigidity is inserted between the inner frame 12 and the curtain plate 310, and the inner frame 12 is unfairly lifted by the principle of leverage or the like. There is a concern that fraudulent action will cause fraudulent equipment to enter the gap, but since the inner frame 12 is closed to the outer frame 11, the lifting height of the inner frame 12 is at most a few millimeters, for example. Since the gaming ball allowance space 350 of the entry prevention wall part 340 is large enough to receive the game sphere B, the height of the entry prevention wall part 340 is at least the diameter of the gaming ball B (e.g. 11 mm). Even if an attempt is made to make the inner frame 12 illegally lift and put an incorrect tool from the gap between the inner frame 12 and the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310, the entry is made by the entry prevention wall part 340. And the inner frame 12 It can be reduced entry of unauthorized device from a gap between the plate 310.

  As a result, it is possible to provide the pachinko machine 10 capable of reducing the approach of the illegal tool from the gap between the inner frame 12 and the curtain plate 310 and reducing the damage caused by the game ball B being pinched. In addition, it is conceivable to improve the dimensional accuracy of the inner frame 12 and the outer frame 11 so that a gap does not occur between the inner frame 12 and the outer frame 11 even if fraud is committed, but this not only increases the cost. If any distortion occurs, the opening and closing of the inner frame 12 will be hindered. On the other hand, according to the pachinko machine 10 of the present embodiment, even if the inner frame 12 and the outer frame 11 have a margin, it is possible to prevent tampering, so there is no need to increase the dimensional accuracy more than necessary. The cost increase due to the improvement can be reduced.

  In addition, since the inclined surface 331 at the gaming ball permissible space 350 in the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310 is inclined downward toward the front side of the pachinko machine 10, the gaming sphere permissible space 350 is entered. Since the gaming ball B is automatically discharged to the front side of the pachinko machine 10 by the inclined surface 331 when the inner frame 12 is opened, the accumulation of the gaming ball B in the gaming ball permissible space 350 can be eliminated.

  Further, the entry preventing wall part 340 is erected at a distance of at least one game ball B from the lower part of the back surface of the inner frame 12 in the closed state. A back wall portion 341 extending in the width direction and a top plate portion 330 projecting non-contactingly with respect to the inner frame 12 toward the front direction (opening direction of the opening and closing direction) of the pachinko machine 10 from the back wall portion 341 The game ball permissible space 350 is provided with a back wall portion 341, a projection upper plate 342, and a top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310. It is a space surrounded by Therefore, even if the inner frame 12 is vigorously closed, the gaming ball B on the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310 can be knocked out by the protruding upper plate 342 and can be stopped in the gaming ball permissible space 350. That is, the gaming ball B on the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310 does not jump over the entry preventing wall part 340, and can enter the gaming ball permissible space 350. Further, since the protruding upper plate 342 is directed to the inner frame 12 at the upper portion of the back wall portion 341, it is difficult to allow the incorrect tool to enter between the tip of the protruding upper plate 342 and the inner frame 12. In addition, the approach of the incorrect tool from the gap between the inner frame 12 and the curtain plate 310 can be further reduced.

  Further, a plurality of (two in the present embodiment) partition walls 332 divide the gaming ball permissible space 350 and connect the projecting upper plate 342 and the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310 to prevent entry. It is provided at predetermined intervals in the width direction of the wall component 340. Therefore, since the protruding upper plate 342 and the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310 are connected by the plurality (two) of partition walls 332, the entrance preventing wall part 340 is applied with a large force. It is possible to reduce bending of the part 340 to create an incorrect gap.

  In addition, since the partition wall 332 is tapered on the front side which is the side facing the inner frame 12, even if the game ball B on the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310 is just positioned on the partition wall 332 The gaming ball B can be distributed to the left and right at its tapered portion, and it is possible to reduce the sandwiching of the gaming ball B between the partition wall 332 and the inner frame 12.

  Further, an outer frame 11 which forms the outer shell of the pachinko machine 10 and is fixed to the game island of the game arcade, a curtain plate 310 provided across the width direction on the bottom plate 11b of the outer frame 11, and the curtain An inner frame 12 which can be opened and closed with respect to the outer frame 11 on the plate 310, and the curtain plate 310 is an inner frame with respect to the top plate portion 330 in which a part of the closed inner frame 12 is positioned upward. The top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310 is provided with an entry preventing wall component 340 extending in the width direction and upward at a position facing the lower portion of the back surface of the closed inner frame 12 on the closing direction side of 12. When the inner frame 12 is closed on the front side of the entry prevention wall part 340, the game ball B on the top plate 330 of the curtain plate 310 runs on the entry prevention wall part 340 when the inner frame 12 is closed. With an uphill guide slope 333 for uphill guidance up to some height on the There.

  Therefore, even if the inner frame 12 is closed in a state where the gaming ball B exists on the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310, the gaming ball B is raised to the upper side halfway height of the entry preventing wall part 340 by the upward guiding inclined surface 333. The game ball B is not pinched by the inner frame 12 and the entry preventing wall part 340 when closing the inner frame 12 because it is guided upward and rides on the entry preventing wall part 340, and the game ball B is pinched. Damage to the inner frame 12 or the entry prevention wall part 340 can be reduced. Further, even if it is intended to insert the incorrect tool from the gap between the inner frame 12 and the curtain plate 310, the false tool along the upward guiding inclined surface 333 of the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310 Since it is guided to the height and the tip of the incorrect tool hits the upper side halfway point of the entry prevention wall part 340, the entry prevention wall part 340 can prevent its entry, and the inner frame 12 and the curtain plate 310 Can reduce the entry of fraudulent tools from the gap between

  Further, in a state where the inner frame 12 is closed to the outer frame 11, a rod member having rigidity is inserted between the inner frame 12 and the curtain plate 310, and the inner frame 12 is unfairly lifted by the principle of leverage or the like. There is a concern that fraudulent action will cause fraudulent equipment to enter the gap, but since the inner frame 12 is closed to the outer frame 11, the lifting height of the inner frame 12 is at most a few millimeters, for example. On the other hand, the height of the entry prevention wall part 340 can be made the diameter (for example, 11 mm) of the gaming ball B by providing the upward guiding inclined surface 333 on the top plate portion 330 of the curtain plate 310. Even if it is attempted to lift the inner frame 12 illegally and put in incorrect tools from the gap between the inner frame 12 and the curtain plate 310, the entry can be blocked by the upper side of the entry prevention wall part 340, and the inner frame 12 and By reducing the entry of incorrect tools from the gap with the curtain plate 310 That.

  As a result, it is possible to provide the pachinko machine 10 capable of reducing the approach of the illegal tool from the gap between the inner frame 12 and the curtain plate 310 and reducing the damage caused by the game ball B being pinched. In addition, it is conceivable to improve the dimensional accuracy of the inner frame 12 and the outer frame 11 so that a gap does not occur between the inner frame 12 and the outer frame 11 even if fraud is committed, but this not only increases the cost. If any distortion occurs, the opening and closing of the inner frame 12 will be hindered. On the other hand, according to the pachinko machine 10 of the present embodiment, even if the inner frame 12 and the outer frame 11 have a margin, it is possible to prevent tampering, so there is no need to increase the dimensional accuracy more than necessary. The cost increase due to the improvement can be reduced.

  In addition, the entry prevention wall part 340 is provided with the upper inclined surface 343 which is inclined downward toward the front side of the pachinko machine 10 at a position closer to the upward guiding inclined surface 333 in the upper surface thereof. Since the game ball B running on the wall part 340 is automatically discharged to the front side of the pachinko machine 10 by the upper inclined surface 343 when the inner frame 12 is opened, the game ball to the upper surface of the entry prevention wall part 340 The accumulation of B can be eliminated.

  Next, a pachinko machine 10 according to a second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 17 and 18.

A second member that can be opened and closed with respect to the attached component on the first member of the attached component;
Equipped with
The first member is a closing direction side of the second member with respect to a top surface portion where a part of the second member in the closed state is positioned upward, and a lower surface lower portion of the second member in the closed state In the opposite position, it has an entry preventing portion that extends in the width direction and upward direction,
At least one of the entry preventing unit and the second member includes a gaming ball permissible space portion into which a game ball on the top surface portion of the first member enters when the second member is closed. Gaming machine.

  According to the gaming machine described in (1), the gaming machine for providing a game to the player includes the attached component having the first member and the second member. The first member is a component to be mounted and is provided across the width direction. The second member is capable of opening and closing with respect to the mounted component on the first member of the mounted component. The first member is provided with an entry preventing portion on the top surface thereof. That is, the entry preventing portion faces the lower surface portion of the second member in the closed state on the closing direction side of the second member with respect to the top surface portion in which a part of the second member in the closed state is positioned upward. In the position, it extends in the width direction and upward direction, and prevents the entry of fraudulent tools. The game ball permissible space part of at least one of the entry preventing part and the second member enters the game ball on the top face of the first member in a state where the second member is closed.

  Therefore, even if the second member is closed while the gaming ball is present on the top surface of the first member, the gaming ball enters the gaming ball permissible space portion, so when the second member is closed, the gaming ball is said first It is possible to reduce damage to the second member or the entry preventing portion due to the pinching of the game ball without being caught between the two members and the entry preventing portion. Moreover, even if it is going to insert an incorrect tool from the gap between the second member and the top surface portion of the first member, the entry preventing portion can prevent its entry, and the incorrect tool from the gap between the second member and the first member Entry can be reduced.

  Also, in a state where the second member is closed with respect to the outer frame, a rigid rod member is inserted between the second member and the first member, and the second member is improperly lifted by the principle of leverage, etc. There is a concern that fraudulent action will be made to allow the incorrect tool to enter the gap, but because the second member is in the state of being closed to the outer frame, the lifting height of the second member is at most a few millimeters, for example On the other hand, since the game ball permissible space part of the entry prevention part is a size into which the game balls enter, the height of the entry prevention part can be made at least larger than the diameter (for example, 11 mm) of the game balls Even if it is attempted to lift the second member illegally and put in the illegal tool from the gap between the second member and the top surface of the first member, the entry preventing portion can prevent the entry thereof, and the second member and the first member It is possible to reduce the incursion of the incorrect tool from the gap with the member.

  As a result, it is possible to provide a gaming machine capable of reducing the approach of the unauthorized tool from the gap between the first member (for example, the curtain plate) and the second member (for example, the movable frame) and reducing the damage due to the game ball being pinched. it can. In addition, it is conceivable to improve the dimensional accuracy of the second member and the part to be mounted so that a gap does not occur between the second member and the part to be mounted even if the wrongdoing is done, but this not only increases the cost. If any distortion occurs, the opening and closing of the second member will be hindered. On the other hand, according to the gaming machine according to the present invention, even if there is a margin between the second member and the mounted part, it is possible to prevent the fraud, so there is no need to increase the dimensional accuracy more than necessary.
