The stopper 214 may be connected to the door side rod 212 via a spring. The spring is an example of the second elastic body. The stopper 214 moves to a blocking position that blocks the cam portion 310 from rotating from the first rotation position to the second rotation position or the third rotation position in response to the door portion 200 moving from the closed state to the open state. .. The stopper 214 moves to the first retracted position that does not prevent the cam portion 310 from rotating from the first rotation position to the second rotation position in response to the door portion 200 moving from the open state to the closed state. The stopper 214 moves to the first retracted position by being pushed by a part of the housing 100 as the door 200 moves from the open state to the closed state. The stopper 214 may move to the blocking position by the elastic force of the spring as the door 200 moves from the closed state to the open state. FIG. 3 shows an example of a state in which the stopper 214 is in the blocking position. FIG. 5 shows an example of a state in which the stopper 214 is in the first retracted position.

The housing side rod 112 is a long member and is fixed to the housing 100. The lock release plate 114 is provided on the case side rod 112 so as to be movable in the longitudinal direction of the case side rod 112 via the lock claw 116. The lock release plate 114 receives the force from the cam portion 310 and moves from the first movement position to the second movement position to transmit the force to the lock claw 116, and the lock claw 116 is engaged with the lock shaft 216. From the state to the disengaged state. The lock claw 116 is rotatably connected to the housing side rod 112 via the pin 121 so as to be rotatable about the pin 121. As the locking claw 116 rotates, the unlock plate 114 slides in the longitudinal direction of the housing side rod 112. For example, the lock claw 116 has a pin protruding toward the lock release plate 114. The lock release plate 114 has a guide groove at a position facing the pin. As the lock claw 116 rotates, the pin moves along the guide groove, and the lock release plate 114 slides in the longitudinal direction of the housing side rod 112. The unlock plate 114 moves from the second moving position where the lock portion 110 is not locked by the lock receiving portion 210 to the first moving position where the lock portion 110 is locked by the lock receiving portion 210. ..

A holding projection 113 is provided on the side surface of the housing side rod 112 on the lock release plate 114 side. A holding hole 115 is formed in the lock release plate 114 at a position where the holding protrusion 113 fits when the lock release plate 114 is in the first movement position. The lock shaft 216 is engaged with the lock claw 116 and the holding projection 113 is fitted into the holding hole 115, whereby the lock portion 110 is locked with respect to the lock receiving portion 210. The holding protrusion 113 is an example of a first locking portion. The holding hole 115 is an example of a second locking portion.

The door side rod 212 is provided with an open/closed state detection sensor 30 that detects whether the door portion 200 is open or closed. The open/closed state detection sensor 30 may be configured by, for example, a button sensor. Further, the door side rod 212 is provided with a rotational position detection sensor 40 that detects the rotational position of the cam portion 310.

The flag plate 222 engages with the cam portion 310 and slides in the longitudinal direction of the door-side rod 212 according to the rotation of the cam portion 310. The rotational position detection sensor 40 may include an infrared light emitting unit and an infrared light receiving unit. The rotational position detection sensor 40 may detect the rotational position of the cam portion 310 depending on whether the infrared light emitted from the infrared light emitting portion is received by the infrared light receiving portion without being blocked by the flag 220. The rotational position detection sensor 40 determines whether or not the cam portion 310 is at the first rotational position depending on whether the infrared light emitted from the infrared light emitting portion is not blocked by the flag 220 and is received by the infrared light receiving portion. May be detected.

The movements of the lock part 110 and the lock receiving part 210 when the door part 200 moves from the open state to the closed state with respect to the housing 100 will be further described with reference to FIG. 4.

When the door portion 200 moves from the open state to the closed state with respect to the housing 100, the lock claw 116 rotates by receiving the force from the lock shaft 216, so that the lock shaft 216 is engaged with the lock shaft 216. Become. The lock shaft 216 moves in the direction of arrow 250 while contacting one side surface 117 of the cutout of the lock claw 116. The lock claw 116 is pushed by the lock shaft 216 to rotate in the direction of the arrow 252, and the lock shaft 216 is engaged with the notch of the lock claw 116.

The lock claw 116 is connected to the housing side rod 112 via a lock claw biasing spring 119. The lock claw biasing spring 119 is an example of a first elastic body. When the lock claw 116 rotates in the direction of the arrow 252, the lock claw urging spring 119 is in a stretched state. As the lock claw 116 rotates, the pin provided on the lock claw 116 moves along the guide groove provided on the lock release plate 114, and the lock release plate 114 moves in the direction of arrow 254. .. The unlock plate 114 moves from the second moving position where the lock portion 110 is not locked by the lock receiving portion 210 to the first moving position where the lock portion 110 is locked by the lock receiving portion 210. .. When the unlock plate 114 is in the first movement position, the holding projection 113 fits in the holding hole 115. When the holding projection 113 is disengaged from the holding hole 115, the lock release plate 114 moves from the first movement position to the second movement position by the elastic force of the lock claw biasing spring 119. The lock release plate 114 moves to receive the force from the cam portion 310 so as to release the locking between the holding projection 113 and the holding hole 115, and the locking between the holding projection 113 and the holding hole 115 is released. Then, the elastic force of the lock claw urging spring 119 causes the elastic member to move to the second movement position.

The movement of the lock part 110 and the lock receiving part 210 when the door part 200 moves from the closed state to the open state with respect to the housing 100 will be described with reference to FIG. 5. When the key 400 rotates in the rotation direction indicated by the arrow 256, the cam portion 310 rotates in the direction indicated by the arrow 258 and moves from the first rotation position to the second rotation position. The cam portion 310 has an arm portion 320 that transmits a force to the lock release plate 114. As the cam portion 310 rotates, the arm portion 320 contacts the cam contact portion 120 of the lock release plate 114 and pushes the lock release plate 114 obliquely downward. As a result, the holding projection 113 is disengaged from the holding hole 115, and the lock claw 116 rotates in the direction of arrow 260 by the elastic force of the lock claw urging spring 119. As a result, the engagement between the lock shaft 216 and the lock claw 116 is released. In response to the rotation of the lock claw 116, the pin of the lock claw 116 moves along the guide groove of the lock release plate 114, and the lock release plate 114 moves in the direction of arrow 258. That is, the unlock plate 114 moves from the first movement position to the second movement position. As a result, the lock portion 110 is changed from being locked by the lock receiving portion 210 to being unlocked.

FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining the rotation range of the cam portion 310. If the cam portion 310 can rotate from the first rotation position (A) to the second rotation position (B), the arm portion 320 pushes the cam contact portion 120 of the unlock plate 114 obliquely downward, and the holding protrusion 113. Can be removed from the holding hole 115. However, the positional relationship between the lock unit 110 and the lock receiving unit 210 varies from device to device. In consideration of this variation, the cam portion 310 is designed to be rotatable from the second rotation position (B) to the third rotation position (C) which is further rotated on the side opposite to the first rotation position (A). It is preferable. As a result, even when the positional relationship between the lock portion 110 and the lock receiving portion 210 is deviated, the arm portion 320 comes into contact with the cam contact portion 120 of the lock release plate 114 to hold the holding protrusion 113 in the holding hole. It can be reliably removed from 115.

By the way, when the housing 100 is in the open state, since the stopper 214 is normally at the blocking position, the cam portion 310 remains at the first rotation position and cannot rotate to the second rotation position or the third rotation position. However, when the housing 100 is in the open state, the stopper 214 may move to the first retracted position due to an external factor such as the user pressing the stopper 214 with a finger. In this case, the cam portion 310 rotates to the second rotation position or the third rotation position even if the housing 100 is in the open state. Then, when the housing 100 changes from the open state to the closed state with the cam portion 310 in the second rotation position or the third rotation position, the arm portion 320 of the cam portion 310 is unlocked as shown in FIG. 7. It may be sandwiched between the cam contact portion 120 of the plate 114 and the stopper 214. In such a state, the cam portion 310 cannot rotate and the unlock plate 114 may not be able to be pushed down diagonally. That is, it may not be possible to release the state in which the lock portion 110 is locked by the lock receiving portion 210.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, in order to prevent the cam portion 310 from being caught as described above, the lock portion 110 is locked by the lock receiving portion 210 when the cam portion 310 is at the second rotation position or the third rotation position. To prevent The door portion 200 is in the open state with respect to the housing 100, the stopper 214 is in the first retracted position, the cam portion 310 is in the second rotation position or the third rotation position, and the unlock plate 114 is in the first movement position. In some cases, the cam portion 310 prevents the lock portion 110 from being locked with respect to the lock receiving portion 210, so that the arm portion 320 causes the stopper 214 and the unlock plate 114. Prevent it from being caught between.

More specifically, as shown in FIG. 8, the arm portion 320 of the cam portion 310 is extended. As a result, when the cam portion 310 is in the second rotation position or the third rotation position, the arm portion 320 projects outside the door side rod 212. In this state, even if the housing 100 is closed, the arm portion 320 serves as a barrier and the lock receiving portion 210 cannot move toward the lock portion 110. That is, the arm portion 320 serves as a barrier, and the lock portion 110 is not locked by the lock receiving portion 210. As a result, when the door portion 200 is open with respect to the housing 100 and the cam portion 310 is in the second rotation position or the third rotation position, the lock portion 110 is locked with respect to the lock receiving portion 210. Prevents a locked state from a missing state. When the arm portion 320 is in the open state of the door portion 200 with respect to the housing 100 and the cam portion 310 is at the second rotation position or the third rotation position, the lock portion 110 is locked with respect to the lock receiving portion 210. Prevents the locked state from being unlocked. This can prevent the cam portion 310 from being caught.

In addition, when the lock portion 110 is not locked by the lock receiving portion 210 and the cam portion 310 is at the second rotation position or the third rotation position, the lock release plate 114 does not contact the arm portion 320. The second movement position of the release plate 114 may be set. When the lock portion 110 is not locked by the lock receiving portion 210, the second moving position, which is the position where the unlock plate 114 is on standby, is set in consideration of the rotation range of the cam portion 310. Regardless of the position, the lock release plate 114 may be set to a position where it does not contact the cam portion 310. The second movement position of the unlock plate 114 is set to a position further below the lower limit position where the arm portion 320 contacts when the cam portion 310 is in the second rotation position or the third rotation position by a predetermined distance. You can For example, as shown in FIG. 9, the second movement position of the unlock plate 114 is a distance D from the lower limit position 262 with which the arm portion 320 contacts when the cam portion 310 is in the second rotation position or the third rotation position. The position 264 is set further below. Accordingly, when the door portion 200 is closed when the cam portion 310 is in the second rotation position or the third rotation position, even if the cam portion 310 is in the second rotation position or the third rotation position, the cam portion is closed. The arm portion 320 does not contact the side surface of the contact portion 120. Therefore, even when the door portion 200 is closed when the cam portion 310 is at the second rotation position or the third rotation position, it is possible to prevent the cam portion 310 from being sandwiched between the stopper 214 and the lock release plate 114. ..

Further, even if the cam portion 310 is sandwiched between the stopper 214 and the lock release plate 114, the stopper 214 may be designed to be retractable on the side opposite to the cam portion 310. The stopper 214 may be movable to the second retracted position that does not prevent the cam portion 310 from rotating when the door portion 200 is in the closed state. The door part 200 may have a retractable space in which the stopper 214 can move to the second retracted position when in the closed state. For example, as shown in FIG. 10, the stopper 214 may be movable from the first retracted position 266 to the second retracted position 268 that is further away from the cam portion 310. The door part 200 may have a retracting space 213 in which the stopper 214 can move from the first retracting position 266 to a second retracting position 268 which is further away from the cam part 310, in the internal space of the door side rod 212. Accordingly, even if the cam portion 310 is located between the stopper 214 and the lock release plate 114, the stopper 214 can move in the direction away from the cam portion 310, so that the cam portion 310 can rotate. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the cam portion 310 from being sandwiched between the stopper 214 and the lock release plate 114.

Further, the gaming machine 10 may further include a blocking unit that prevents the door unit 200 from closing when the cam unit 310 is not in the first rotation position. When the rotation position detection sensor 40 detects that the cam portion 310 is not at the first rotation position, the blocking portion is changed from the state where the lock portion 110 is not locked to the lock receiving portion 210 to the locked state. Prevent. The blocking unit blocks the door unit 200 from moving to the closed position, thereby blocking the lock unit 110 from being locked with respect to the lock receiving unit 210. Good. The blocking portion projects between the housing 100 and the door portion 200 when the rotation position detection sensor 40 detects that the cam portion 310 is not in the first rotation position, and moves the door portion 200 to the closed position. You may prevent doing so. The blocking unit may be configured by a solenoid. For example, the blocking portion may have a movable iron core and a coil surrounding the movable iron core. When the rotation position detection sensor 40 detects that the cam portion 310 is not in the first rotation position, the movable iron core is projected between the housing 100 and the door portion 200. This may prevent the door part 200 from moving to the closed position and prevent the lock part 110 from being locked with respect to the lock receiving part 210. The blocking unit may be provided, for example, near a hinge that connects the housing 100 and the door unit 200. The blocking unit may be configured by any mechanism as long as it can prevent the lock unit 110 from being locked with respect to the lock receiving unit 210. The blocking unit may be configured by a mechanism that blocks the rotation of the hinge that connects the housing 100 and the door unit 200, a mechanism that blocks the rotation of the lock claw 116, and the like.

FIG. 11 is a functional block diagram including a blocking unit. The gaming machine 10 includes a control unit 20, an open/closed state detection sensor 30, a rotational position detection sensor 40, and a blocking unit 50. The open/closed state detection sensor 30 detects whether the door section 200 is in an open state or a closed state. The rotational position detection sensor 40 detects whether or not the cam portion 310 is at the first rotational position. The control unit 20 controls the blocking unit 50 based on the detection results of the open/closed state detection sensor 30 and the rotational position detection sensor 40. When the rotation position detection sensor 40 detects that the cam portion 310 is not at the first rotation position, the blocking portion 50 changes from the state in which the lock portion 110 is not locked to the lock receiving portion 210 to the state in which the lock portion 110 is locked. Prevent things. In the blocking unit 50, the rotational position detection sensor 40 detects that the cam unit 310 is not at the first rotational position, and the open/closed state detection sensor 30 detects that the door unit 200 is open with respect to the housing 100. In this case, the lock unit 110 is prevented from being locked with respect to the lock receiving unit 210 from being locked.

FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing an example of a control procedure of the blocking unit 50 by the control unit 20. The control unit 20 determines whether the door unit 200 is in the open state based on the detection result from the open/close state detection sensor 30 (S100). If the door unit 200 is in the open state, the control unit 20 determines whether or not the cam unit 310 is at the first rotation position based on the detection result from the rotation position detection sensor 40 (S102). When the cam portion 310 is in the first rotation position, the control unit 20 determines whether the blocking unit 50 is in the permission position that permits the door 200 to be closed (S104). The control unit 20 determines whether the blocking unit 50 projects between the door unit 200 and the housing 100. If it is not in the permission position, the control unit 20 controls the blocking unit 50 to move the blocking unit 50 to the permission position (S106). As a result, the door 200 can be closed with respect to the housing 100. That is, the lock portion 110 can be changed from the state in which the lock portion 110 is not locked to the state in which the lock portion 110 is locked.

On the other hand, when the cam portion 310 is not in the first rotation position, the control unit 20 determines whether the blocking unit 50 is in the blocking position that prevents the door 200 from closing (S108). If the blocking unit 50 is not in the blocking position, the control unit 20 controls the blocking unit 50 to move the blocking unit 50 to the blocking position. For example, the control unit 20 causes the blocking unit 50 to project between the door unit 200 and the housing 100. As a result, the door 200 prevents the housing 100 from being closed. That is, it prevents the lock portion 110 from being locked with respect to the lock receiving portion 210 from being locked.

As a result, the lock portion 110 is not locked by the lock receiving portion 210 except when the cam portion 310 is at the first rotation position. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the cam portion 310 from being sandwiched between the stopper 214 and the lock release plate 114.
