Further, in this state, the three fitting upper protrusions 71b on the upper surface side of the case upper part 71 are fitted into the upper fitting holes 72a at the three upper surface side of the case lower part 72 and the lower surface side of the case upper part 71. The two fitting lower protrusions 72b on the lower surface side of the case lower 72 are fitted into the two lower fitting holes 71c.

Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 6, the caulking pins 160 are inserted and locked in the bottomed locking holes 151 in the sealed portion 150 at the two lower sides of the substrate case 74, respectively. In this state, the sealing member 140, that is, the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked, so that the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 cannot be slid in the lateral direction.

Then, a portion of the head 162 of the crimp pin 160 in the sealed portion 150 is filled with a pre-curing resin, and the filled pre-curing resin is irradiated with ultraviolet rays to be cured as shown in FIG.

Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 6, the screw 75 is inserted into the screw hole 76 in the lower case 72 and fastened to the upper case 71. In this way, not only the sealing member 140 but also this screw fastening fixes the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 so as to prevent the sliding movement thereof.

Further, the substrate case 74 thus sealed, that is, the main control device 70 is attached to the attachment base 100 attached to an upper position inside the main body 11. Specifically, in a state in which the support frame body 120 is tilted forward with respect to the metal frame body 110 of the mounting base 100, the main controller 70 is inserted from the upper side of the support frame body 120 and the support frame body is inserted. Attach to 120. In this mounted state, the supporting lower protrusion 71d at the central portion on the lower surface side of the case upper 71 is fitted into the supporting lower fitting hole 125 on the lower surface side of the support frame 120, and the supporting lower projection 71d on the upper surface side of the lower case 72 is The upper support projection 126 on the upper surface side of the support frame 120 is fitted into the upper support fitting hole 72c at that location, and the locking projection 72d at the central upper portion of the back surface of the lower case 72 is supported by the support frame body 120. It is in a state of being locked in the locking hole 127 at the center of the upper part of.

Then, the double crimping pin 193 is inserted into the separate locking hole 191 of the separate sealed portion 192 of the main control device 70 mounted on the support frame 120, so that the double crimping pin 193 is supported by the support frame body. The main controller 70 is locked to the support frame 120 and fixed to the support frame 120. That is, in this fixed state, the main control device 70 cannot be pulled out from the support frame 120 unless the portion to be cut on the case 71 shown in FIG. 6 is cut to separate the separate sealing portion.

Finally, the support frame body 120 to which the main controller 70 is mounted and fixed in this way is moved from the forward tilted posture state to the standing posture state, so that the support frame body 120 is locked to the metal frame body 110 in the standing posture. The main controller 70 is finally attached to the upper position inside the main body 11 as shown in FIG.

As described above, according to the slot machine 10 of the first embodiment, in the gaming machine provided with the board case 74 that accommodates the main control board 73 that controls the predetermined game of the gaming machine, the board case 74 is provided. Includes a case upper part 71 and a case lower part 72 to be combined with the case upper part 71. The board case 74 has a main control board 73 attached to the main control board 73 at a predetermined position thereof. A sealing member 140 that seals the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 to prevent the substrate case 74 from being unsealed with the lower case 72 fitted to the mounting surface side is provided. The sealed portion 150 having a bottomed locking hole 151 that is formed to communicate with each other in a predetermined position in a state in which the case bottom 72 and the case bottom 72 are combined, and is inserted into the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150. The caulking pin 160 having the insertion locking portion 161 to be locked and the head portion 162 located on the insertion rear end side of the insertion locking portion 161, and the caulking pin in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150. The head 160 of the caulking pin 160 is provided with a cured resin 170 that is filled and cured at the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160 in the sealed portion 150 with the 160 inserted and locked. 162 includes a fragile portion 163 adhered to the sealed portion 150 with a cured resin 170. Therefore, for example, if the cured resin 170 of the sealing member 140 is to be removed using an unauthorized thin member, the fragile portion 163 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 is destroyed due to the unauthorized removal of the cured resin 170. Since the fragile portion 163 is removed together with the removed cured resin 170, the fragile portion 163 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 is removed even if the crimping pin 160 is illicitly reused. It can be seen that the substrate case 74 is opened by observing the damage. As a result, it is possible to reduce the unsealing of the board cases 74 attached to the slot machine 10, and to illegally make the board cases 74 by so-called one by one (from the two board cases 74, the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 which are not damaged). It is possible to provide a slot machine (gaming machine) that can reduce fraud because it is possible to reduce taking out and making one base case 74).

Further, the receiving recessed portion 152 provided at the inlet side peripheral portion of the bottomed locking hole 151 in the sealed portion 150 has the caulking pin 160 inserted and locked in the recessed space. In the state where the head 162 of 160 is positioned, the uncured space is filled with the pre-curing resin and cured, so that the head 162 is covered with the cured resin 170 while the head 162 is positioned in the dented space of the receiving recess 152. It is difficult to illicitly remove the cured resin 170 in the recessed space, and if the cured resin 170 is to be removed using an unauthorized thin member, the caulking pin will be removed due to the unauthorized removal of the cured resin 170. The fragile portion 163 of the head portion 162 of the 160 is destroyed, and the fragile portion 163 is removed together with the removed cured resin 170. Therefore, even if the crimp pin 160 is illicitly reused, the fragile portion 163 is removed. By observing the breakage of the fragile portion 163 of the head 162 of the crimping pin 160, it can be seen that the substrate case 74 has been opened. As a result, it is possible to provide a gaming machine capable of reducing fraud.

Further, since the fragile portion 163 is the plurality of extending portions 164 extending from the head portion 162 in the direction orthogonal to the inserting direction of the crimping pin 160, the surface area of the plurality of extending portions 164 can be reduced. The adhesive area of the head portion 162 to the cured resin 170 can be increased by an amount corresponding to the increased amount, and the adhesive force between the head portion 162 and the cured resin 170 is improved by the increased amount. If an attempt is made to remove the cured resin 170 using a member, one of the extended portions 164 of the plurality of extended portions 164 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 will be destroyed due to improper removal of the cured resin 170, and the removal thereof will occur. A part of the extended portion 164 is removed together with the cured resin 170 that has been removed, and even if the extended portion 164 is removed and the caulking pin 160 is illegally reused, the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 is removed. It can be seen that the substrate case 74 has been opened by observing the breakage of the extending portion 164 of the.

Further, the sealed portion 150 is inserted with the protrusion 72e provided on the lower case 72 and the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 provided on the upper case 71 in a combined state. The bottomed locking hole 151 has a through hole 72f formed through the protruding portion 72e in a direction orthogonal to the protruding direction, and the protruding portion 72e is inserted into the receiving portion 71e. In the state, an insertion hole portion 71f formed to communicate with the accommodation portion 71e on one opening side of the through hole 72f and an insertion through hole 71g formed to communicate with the accommodation portion 71e on the other opening side of the through hole 72f. It is configured. Therefore, since the boundary surface BL between the case upper part 71 and the case lower part 72 at the location where the sealing member 140 exists is surrounded by the accommodating portion 71e, it is difficult to insert an illegal thin member into the boundary surface BL. Therefore, it is possible to make it difficult to insert an incorrect thin member into the boundary surface BL and separate the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 at the position where the sealing member 140 exists. Further, even if an incorrect thin member is inserted at the boundary between the case upper part 71 and the case lower part 72 other than the housing part 71e, only a force is applied in the projecting direction of the projecting part 72e, and the boundary surface BL is separated. That is, since no force is applied in the direction in which the crimping pin 160 comes off, even if an unauthorized thin member is forcibly inserted into the boundary between the case upper part 71 and the case lower part 72 other than the housing portion 71e, the sealing member 140 is sealed. It cannot be stopped. As a result, it is possible to provide a gaming machine using the substrate case 74 that can reduce unauthorized opening.

Further, the case locking portion 130 of the board case 74 is provided on the case upper 71 or the case lower 71 with the case lower 72 aligned with the mounting surface side of the main control board 73 on the main control board 73. The upper case 71 and the lower case 72 are locked by sliding at least one of the 72 in the predetermined direction of the mating surface. The sealing member 140 seals the case upper part 71 and the case lower part 72 locked by the case locking part 130 so as not to be opened. Therefore, since the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 are sealed by the sealing member 140 so as not to be opened, it is possible to reduce unauthorized opening of the substrate case 74. Further, in this sealed state, the case upper part 71 and the case lower part 72 are slid and locked by the case locking part 130, and the case upper part 71 and the case lower part 72 cannot be opened in opposite directions orthogonal to the sliding direction. Thus, it is possible to reduce the unauthorized opening of the substrate case 74.

In addition, the case locking portion 130 of the substrate case 74 has four hook-shaped projections 131 (in FIGS. 6 and 9) shown by broken lines which are arranged in parallel on both sides of the short side of the case 71 in the side direction. (Shown with a broken line because it is not visible) and four inverted hooks formed in opposite directions to the hook-shaped protrusions 131, which are juxtaposed in both sides of the short side of the case lower 72. Since the hook-shaped protrusion 131 and the inverted hook-shaped protrusion 132 are locked by sliding at least one of the case upper part 71 and the case lower part 72, the sealing member 140 is provided on the case. In the sealed state in which the case 71 and the case bottom 72 are sealed so as not to be opened, a plurality of hook-like projections 131 and reverse hook-like projections arranged on both sides of the case top 71 or the case bottom 72 over a predetermined length. It is slidably locked by the portion 132, and a thin illegal tool is inserted between the case upper part 71 and the case lower part 72 to form a gap between the case upper part 71 and the case lower part 72, or It is possible to reduce the possibility of opening 71 and the case bottom 72, and to reduce the possibility that the substrate case 74 is illegally formed with a gap or opened.

Further, the sealing member 140 fixes the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 so as to prevent the sliding movement thereof. Further, when the fixing releasing destructible portion 180 of the sealing member 140 is destroyed, the slide-disabled state of the case upper portion 71 and the case lower portion 72 is released. Therefore, it can be seen that the substrate case 74 has been opened by observing the destruction traces of the destruction releasing target destruction portion 180.

In the single state in which the substrate case 74 is removed from the mount 100, the substrate case 74 can be opened by breaking the two fixing release destructible portions 180 under the case 72 as shown in FIG. The upper case 71 and the lower case 72 can be slid. Further, in the state where the substrate case 74 is attached to the attachment base 100, it is not possible to directly access the two fixed release target destruction portions 180 under the case 72 shown in FIG. 8, and as shown in FIG. By breaking the fixed release destructible portions 180 at the two upper sides of the case upper 71 located, finally, the two fixed release destructible portions 180 of the case lower 72 located at the back side are directly accessed and cut. be able to.

Further, since the breaking release target portion 180 is the connecting portion 181 that connects the case upper portion 71 or the case lower portion 72 and the sealing member 140, by breaking the connecting portion 181 to connect the case upper portion 71 and the case lower portion 72 to each other. The relative sliding movement of the case can be made possible, and the case upper part 71 and the case lower part 72 can be opened. Since the sealing member 140 remains on the case upper part 71 or the case lower part 72, it can be seen that the breakage has caused the opening.

Further, as shown in FIG. 9, the connecting portions 181 at the two lower sides of the case upper portion 71 can be used as a supporting portion instead of being cut and destroyed. In this way, when the lower two connecting portions 181 of the case upper 71 are used as the supporting portions, the upper two connecting portions 181 of the case upper 71 and the two lower connecting portions 181 of the case lower 72 are cut. Even if it is, the sealing member 140 can be prevented from falling into the slot machine 10.

Further, as shown in FIG. 13B, by increasing the pin length of the caulking pin 160, the insertion side surface of the head portion 162 and the peripheral portion of the through hole 72f of the projecting portion 72e of the lower case 72 are set to a predetermined position. You may make it provide the clearance gap part 200. In this case, the sealing member 140 is sealed with the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 with the caulking pin 160 inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed part 150. The gap portion 200 in which a predetermined gap is formed between the portion 150 and the portion 150 to be sealed in a state where the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the portion 150 to be sealed. Since the hardened resin 170 that is hardened in a state of being filled in the head portion 162 of the crimping pin 160 in 150 so as to also go around the gap 200 is provided, the sealed portion 150 and the crimping pin 160 of the crimping pin 160 are provided. The head portion 162, that is, the case upper portion 71 or the case lower portion 72, and the caulking pin 160 can be bonded to each other with the cured resin 170. Further, since the curable resin 170 also wraps around and adheres to the gap portion 200 between the head portion 162 of the crimp pin 160 and the sealed portion 150, for example, the curable resin 170 of the sealing member 140 is illegal. Even if an attempt is made to remove it using a thin member, it takes time to remove the cured resin 170 on the front side (front side) of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160, and the back side (back side) of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160. In other words, it is more difficult to remove the cured resin 170 that has entered the gap 200 because it cannot be directly accessed, and the cured resin 170 in the gap 200 is used for the caulking pin 160 and the sealed portion 150. Since the and are kept bonded, it is difficult to remove the crimping pin 160. Therefore, it is difficult to illegally open the substrate case 74. As a result, it is possible to provide a slot machine (gaming machine) capable of reducing fraud.

Further, as shown in FIG. 14, the sealed portion 150 is formed so as to project at the inner peripheral portion on the opening side of the bottomed locking hole 151, and is bonded to the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160 by the cured resin 170. The fragile portion 154 may be provided. As shown in FIG. 14, the fragile portion 154 is an inner peripheral portion near the entrance of the bottomed locking hole 151, and two protruding inner peripheral portions are formed at, for example, two portions along the circumferential direction. 153. The two projecting portions 153 have such a projecting length that they can be inserted into a recessed portion between two adjacent extending portions 164 of the head portion 162 of the crimping pin 160. In addition, as shown in FIG. 14, in the front view of the sealed portion 150, the left inner circumferential protrusion 153 is present so as to face the recessed portion between the two adjacent extending portions 164 on the left side. However, since the right inner peripheral protrusion 153 exists so as to face the recessed portion between the two adjacent extending portions 164 on the right side, the two inner peripheral portions of the bottomed locking hole 151 are The shape surrounded by the projecting portion 153 and the six extending portions 164 of the head portion 162 of the crimping pin 160 has a complicatedly entered shape, and the shape of the cured resin 170 filled and cured in this portion Can be intricately so complicated. The above-mentioned inner peripheral protrusion 153 corresponds to the protrusion in the present invention.

In this case, if the cured resin 170 of the sealing member 140 is removed using an unauthorized thin member and the caulking pin 160 is attempted to be removed illegally, the cured resin 170 is unsealed due to the unauthorized removal. The fragile portion 154 of the portion 150 is destroyed, and the fragile portion 154 is removed together with the removed cured resin 170. Therefore, even if the sealed portion 150 from which the fragile portion 154 is removed is illegally reused, By observing the breakage of the fragile portion 154 of the sealed portion 150, it can be seen that the substrate case 74 has been opened. As a result, it is possible to provide a slot machine (gaming machine) capable of reducing fraud.

Further, as shown by the broken line in FIG. 14, the inner peripheral protrusion 153 has a notch groove 155 formed on the base end side thereof. That is, as shown by a broken line in FIG. 14, the notch groove portion 155 is formed at a predetermined depth along the base end side of the inner peripheral protruding portions 153 at the rear surface portion on the base end side of the two inner peripheral protruding portions 153. Are formed. The notched groove portion 155 may be formed on the front face portion on the base end side of the inner circumferential protrusion portion 153, or may be formed on both the front face and the back face.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 14, since the inner peripheral projection 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151 has a cutout groove 155 on the base end side thereof, the cured resin 170 is formed using an illegal thin member. When attempting to remove the cured resin 170, the inner peripheral protrusion 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151 is more likely to be broken due to the illegal removal of the cured resin 170, and the inner peripheral protrusion 153 is removed together with the removed cured resin 170. Therefore, it can be seen that the substrate case 74 is opened by observing the rupture of the inner peripheral protruding portion 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 14, the sealing member 140 has a rear surface of the inner peripheral protruding portion 153 in a state where the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 161 of the sealed portion 150. With the gap portion 156 having a predetermined gap formed on the side and the bottomed locking hole 161 of the sealed portion 150, the swaged pin 160 is inserted and locked, and the swaged portion 150 is swaged. The pin 160 includes a cured resin 170 that is cured in a state of being filled in the head portion 162 of the pin 160 so as to also go around the gap portion 156. The gap 156 described above corresponds to the first gap in the present invention, and the gap 200 described above corresponds to the second gap in the present invention.

The gap portion 156 (the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 or the abutting portion that abuts the head 162 in the bottomed locking hole 151, whichever is closer to the inner circumferential protrusion 153 and the back surface of the inner circumferential protrusion 153. Since the hardened resin 170 also wraps around and is adhered to the (gap with the side), even if the hardened resin 170 of the sealing member 140 is to be removed using an unauthorized thin member, for example, the head of the caulking pin 160 will be removed. It takes time to remove the hardened resin 170 on the front side (front side) of the 162, and the hardened resin 170 sneaking into the back side (back side) of the inner peripheral protruding portion 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151, that is, the gap portion 156 directly. It is more difficult to remove the hardened resin 170 because the hardened resin 170 cannot be accessed, and the hardened resin 170 in the gap portion 156 maintains the state in which the crimping pin 160 and the sealed portion 150 are adhered to each other. It is difficult to remove the pin 160.

Further, as shown in FIG. 15, the cured resin 170 is further removed from the bottomed locking hole 151 in a state where the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150. It is also possible to fill and harden the portion between the bottom of the hole and the tip of the caulking pin 160. That is, the bottom of the bottomed locking hole 151 is filled with the pre-cured resin, and then the caulking pin 160 is inserted into the bottomed locking hole 151 and locked, and the case is closed as shown by an arrow in FIG. Ultraviolet rays are irradiated from the back surface side of the upper part 71 to cure. After that, the pre-curing resin is filled in the hollow space of the receiving concave portion 152, and is irradiated with ultraviolet rays from the front surface side of the case top 71 to be cured.

In this case, the sealed portion 150 and the tip of the caulking pin 160, that is, the case upper part 71 or the case lower part 72 and the caulking pin 160 can be adhered with a hardening resin. Further, since the hardened resin 170 enters and is bonded to a portion between the hole bottom of the bottomed locking hole 151 and the tip of the caulking pin 160, for example, the hardened resin 170 of the sealing member 140 has an illegal thin shape. Even if it is attempted to remove it using a member, it is difficult to remove the cured resin 170 because the cured resin 170 that has entered between the bottom of the bottomed locking hole 151 and the tip of the caulking pin 160 cannot be directly accessed. In addition, since the caulking pin 160 and the sealed portion 150 are kept bonded by the cured resin 170, it is difficult to remove the caulking pin 160. Therefore, it is difficult to illegally open the substrate case 74. As a result, it is possible to provide a gaming machine capable of reducing fraud.

As shown in FIG. 15, only the cured resin 170 at the bottom of the bottomed locking hole 151 may be used, or the pre-cured resin at the bottom of the bottomed locking hole 151 and the recessed space of the receiving recess 152 may be provided. The pre-curing resin may be simultaneously irradiated with ultraviolet rays to be cured.

Further, as shown in FIG. 15, when the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150, the tip end surface of the caulking pin 160 and the bottomed locking hole 151 are locked. The distance from the bottom surface of the hole is constant (although it is about 1 mm in the first embodiment, other distances may be used). In this case, the distance between the tip surface of the caulking pin 160 and the bottom surface of the bottomed locking hole 151 is constant, so that the inside of the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150 before curing is filled. By inserting the caulking pin 160 into the bottomed locking hole 151, the resin has a constant thickness between the tip surface of the caulking pin 160 and the bottom surface of the bottomed locking hole 151. The curing time can be shortened.

Further, as shown in FIG. 15, in a state where the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150, the cured resin 170 is inserted into the insertion locking portion 161 of the caulking pin 160. It may be hardened by filling in a portion between the inner circumference of the bottomed locking hole 151 and the inner circumference. In this case, since the portion between the insertion locking portion 161 of the crimping pin 160 and the inner periphery of the bottomed locking hole 151 is filled and cured, the insertion locking portion 161 of the crimping pin 160 is cured. The inner periphery of the bottomed locking hole 151 is adhered by the cured resin 170, which makes it difficult to remove the caulking pin 160.

Next, the board case 74 of the slot machine 10 according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 16 and 17.

16A to 16G are, in that order, a top view, a left side view, a front view, a right side view, a back view, a bottom view, and a perspective view of the caulking pin 160 of the second embodiment. Is. 17A to 17C are, in that order, a front view of the sealed portion 150 of the second embodiment, a right side surface, and a partial perspective view seen from the front right upper side, and FIG. It is a front view of the to-be-sealed part 150 of a modification.

The second embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 and a part of the bottomed locking hole 151 are different. Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 16 and 17(a) to (c), the caulking pin 160 of the second embodiment is provided with eight extending portions 164 radially from the head portion 162 thereof, and A plurality of (three in this embodiment) groove portions 165 are formed on the surface of the portion 162, and these eight extended portions 164 are fragile portions 163, and the sealed portion 150 of the second embodiment. The bottomed locking hole 151 is circular when viewed from the front, and is different from the above-described first embodiment in that the fragile portion 154 (inner peripheral protrusion 153) is also provided in the inner peripheral portion near the entrance. ing. According to the second embodiment, a configuration different from that of the above-described first embodiment will be described in detail below, and a description of the same configuration as the first embodiment will be omitted here.

As shown in FIG. 16, the caulking pin 160 of the second embodiment has eight extending portions 164 formed radially from a circular head 162 in a front view. Further, as shown in FIG. 16, the caulking pin 160 has a groove portion 165 formed on the front surface side of the head portion 162 thereof in the form of, for example, three parallel straight lines. As shown in FIGS. 16A, 16F, and 16G, the groove portion 165 has a V-shape in cross section. The portion other than the head portion 162 of the crimping pin 160 of the second embodiment, that is, the insertion locking portion 161 has the same structure as the crimping pin 160 of the first embodiment.

Subsequently, in the sealed portion 150 of the second embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 17A to 17C, the bottomed locking hole 151 has a circular shape when viewed from the front, and further, near the entrance thereof. The fragile portion 154 is formed so as to project from the inner peripheral portion of the. The fragile portion 154 is an inner peripheral portion near the entrance of the bottomed locking hole 151, and is, for example, five inner peripheral protruding portions 153 protruding at five locations along the circumferential direction. In the second embodiment, the inner peripheral protrusion 153 has a protruding length that does not contact the extension 164 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160. That is, the tip of the inner peripheral protrusion 153 and the tip of the extending portion 164 are positioned with a predetermined gap.

In the second embodiment, as shown in FIG. 17A, five inner peripheral protrusions 153 are formed in the inner peripheral direction of the bottomed locking hole 151 so that the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 extends. Since there are eight protrusions 164, the numbers of both are different. That is, as shown in FIG. 17A, in the front view state of the sealed portion 150, a recess between the inner peripheral protrusion 153 and a portion where the inner peripheral protrusion 153 and the extending portion 164 face each other. Since there are portions where the extending portions 164 face, there are five inner peripheral projecting portions 153 of the bottomed locking holes 151 and eight extending portions 164 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160, etc. The shape surrounded by is a complicatedly entered shape, and the shape of the cured resin 170 filled and cured at this portion can be such a complicatedly entered shape.

Further, the five inner peripheral projections 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151 of the second embodiment are provided with the notched groove portions 155 on the base end side thereof as shown by the broken lines in FIG. 17(a). .. That is, as shown by the broken line in FIG. 17A, the back surface portion on the base end side of the five inner peripheral protrusions 153 is cut at a predetermined depth along the base end side of the inner peripheral protrusions 153. A notched groove portion 155 is formed. The notched groove portion 155 may be formed on the front face portion on the base end side of the inner circumferential protrusion portion 153, or may be formed on both the front face and the back face.

As shown in FIG. 17D, the inner peripheral protrusion 153 has a protrusion shape like an internal gear, the extension 164 has a protrusion shape like an external gear, and the caulking pin 160 has a bottomed locking hole. The internal gear-shaped inner peripheral projection 153 and the external gear-shaped extending portion 164 may be in mesh with each other while being inserted and locked in the 151. For example, in FIG. 17D, a plurality (for example, 8) of inner peripheral protrusions 153 and a plurality of (for example, 8) extending portions 164 are provided between adjacent inner peripheral protrusions 153. It is arranged so that the extending portion 164 is located.

Further, the bottomed locking hole 151 has the insertion through hole 71g of the case upper 71, the through hole 72f of the projecting portion 72e of the case lower 72, and the case upper, in order from the inlet side, as in the first embodiment. Since the diameter of the insertion through hole 71g of the upper case 71 is larger than the diameter of the through hole 72f of the projecting portion 72e of the lower case 72, each inner peripheral protrusion A part of the lower case 72 (a part of the periphery of the through hole 72f of the protrusion 72e) is exposed between 153, and a part of the lower case 72 (a part of the periphery of the through hole 72f of the protrusion 72e). A cured resin 170, which will be described later, is attached to the.

As shown in FIG. 17, when the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151, the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 is located inside the receiving recess 152. In this state, similarly to the first embodiment described above, the pre-curing resin is filled in the receiving recess 152, and the pre-curing resin is irradiated with ultraviolet rays to be cured. The hardened resin 170 is hardened in a state where it has also entered the groove portion 165 of the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160, and the inner circumferences of the five inner circumferential projection portions 153 near the entrance of the bottomed locking hole 151. It is hardened in a state where it enters between the protrusions 153 and between the inner peripheral protrusion 153 and the extending portion 164. The bottomed engagement hole 151 and the caulking pin 160 are bonded by the cured resin 170. That is, the case upper part 71, the case lower part 72, and the caulking pin 160 are bonded.

As described above, according to the slot machine 10 of the second embodiment, the surface area of the inner peripheral protruding portion 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150 is equal to the cured resin of the bottomed locking hole 151. The adhesive area to 170 can be expanded, and the adhesive force between the bottomed locking hole 151 and the cured resin 170 is further improved by the expanded area, and the surface area of the groove portion 165 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 is increased. As a result, the adhesive area of the head 162 to the cured resin 170 can be expanded, and the adhesive force between the head 162 and the cured resin 170 is further improved by the expanded area, and the groove 165 extends the extension. Since the 164 is easily broken, when the cured resin 170 is removed using an unauthorized thin member, the extension 164 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 is removed due to the unauthorized removal of the cured resin 170. Since the extended portion 164 is removed along with the removed cured resin 170 by breaking at the notch groove portion 165, even if the caulking pin 160 in which the extended portion 164 has been broken is reused illegally, the caulking is still possible. The breakage of the extension 164 of the head 162 of the pin 160 indicates that the substrate case 74 has been opened.

Further, when the cured resin 170 is removed by using an illegal thin member, the inner peripheral protrusion 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151 is broken due to the illegal removal of the cured resin 170, and the removed cured resin is cured. Since the inner peripheral protrusion 153 is removed together with the resin 170, it can be seen that the substrate case 74 is opened by observing the fracture of the inner peripheral protrusion 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151.

Further, as shown in FIG. 17A, since the inner peripheral projection 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151 has the notch groove 155 on the base end side thereof, the hardened resin 170 is illicitly thin member. When it is attempted to remove the hardened resin 170, the inner circumferential projection 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151 is more likely to be broken due to the illegal removal of the hardened resin 170. Since the projecting portion 153 is removed, the breakage of the inner circumferential projecting portion 153 of the bottomed locking hole 151 shows that the substrate case 74 has been opened.

Next, the board case 74 of the slot machine 10 according to the third embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.

18A to 18G are, in that order, a top view, a left side view, a front view, a right side view, a rear view, a bottom view, and a perspective view of the caulking pin 160 according to the third embodiment. Is. 19A to 19D are, in that order, a front view, a right side surface, a bottom view, and a partial perspective view of the sealed portion 150 according to the third embodiment as viewed from the front right upper side. 20A is a cross-sectional view of the sealed portion 150 in the insertion locking state of the caulking pin 160 in the third embodiment, and FIG. 20B is a sectional view of the caulking pin 160 in the third embodiment. FIG. 16 is a perspective view showing a state of being inserted into 150.

The third embodiment differs from the first and second embodiments described above in a part of the head 162 and the bottomed locking hole 151 of the caulking pin 160. Specifically, the caulking pin 160 of the third embodiment does not have the extending portion 164 of the first and second embodiments and the groove portion 165 of the second embodiment, as shown in FIGS. The portion 162 is provided with a tray portion 166 filled with pre-curing resin on the front side surface thereof, and the tray portion 166 is a portion outside the insertion locking portion 161 when viewed from the insertion direction of the caulking pin 160. In addition, an inflow hole 167 penetrating the insertion side surface of the head portion 162 is provided, and the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150 of the third embodiment is circular in a front view as in the second embodiment. The difference from the first and second embodiments is that the inner circumferential protrusion 153 of the second embodiment is not provided. Note that the description of the same configuration as that of the first and second embodiments is omitted here.

As shown in FIG. 18, the caulking pin 160 of the third embodiment has a concave tray plate portion 166 on the front side surface of the head portion 162 thereof, which is filled with the pre-curing resin. As shown in FIGS. 18(c) and 18(e), the tray portion 166 is inserted with the head portion 162 at a part of the outer side of the insertion locking portion 161 when viewed from the insertion direction of the caulking pin 160. It has an inflow hole 167 penetrating the side surface.

When the caulking pin 160 of the third embodiment is inserted into the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150 as shown in FIG. 20B, the caulking pin 160 is provided as shown in FIGS. 19 and 20A. The insertion locking portion 161 is locked in the bottomed locking hole 151. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 20A, the insertion locking portion 161 of the caulking pin 160 is locked in the insertion hole portion 71f on the case 71, which is the inner side of the bottomed locking hole 151.

As shown in FIG. 20(a), the insertion through hole 71g on the upper case 71 has a larger diameter than the insertion locking portion 161 of the caulking pin 160, and the through hole 72f of the protruding portion 72e on the lower case 72 is The diameter is smaller than the insertion through hole 71g. As shown in FIG. 20A, the tip of the caulking pin 160 is inserted into the insertion hole portion 71f of the case upper portion 71, and the insertion locking portion 161 of the caulking pin 160 has a protruding portion 72e of the case lower portion 72. Of the through hole 72f is locked to a peripheral portion of the rear side through opening.

Further, as shown in FIG. 20A, in a state where the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150, the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 and the sealed portion are sealed. A gap portion 200, which is a predetermined gap, is formed between the portion 150 and the portion 150. In the third embodiment, the diameter of the insertion through hole 71g on the case 71 is made larger than the insertion locking portion 161 of the crimping pin 160 and smaller than the diameter of the head portion 162 of the crimping pin 160. The gap portion 200 is formed between the portion 162 and the peripheral portion of the through hole 72f under the case 72. The gap portion 200 is a gap provided between the recessed surface of the receiving recess 152 and the insertion side surface of the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160.

As shown in FIG. 20A, when the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150, the head of the caulking pin 160 in the sealed portion 150 is locked. When the pre-curing resin is filled in the portion 162, that is, the tray portion 166 of the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160, the pre-curing resin enters the gap portion 200 through the inflow hole 167 of the tray portion 166. By irradiating with the ultraviolet rays, the curable resin 170 is cured in a state where the curable resin 170 also wraps around the gap 200.

As described above, according to the slot machine 10 of the third embodiment, the sealing member 140 is in a state where the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150. By inserting the caulking pin 160 into the gap portion 200 in which a predetermined gap is formed between the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160 and the sealed portion 150, and the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150. In the locked state, a cured resin 170 that is cured in a state where it is filled in the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160 in the sealed portion 150 and wraps around the gap portion 200 is also provided. Therefore, the sealed portion 150 and the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160, that is, the case upper portion 71 or the case lower portion 72 and the caulking pin 160 can be bonded with the cured resin 170. Further, since the curable resin 170 also wraps around and adheres to the gap portion 200 between the head portion 162 of the crimp pin 160 and the sealed portion 150, for example, the curable resin 170 of the sealing member 140 is illegal. Even if an attempt is made to remove it using a thin member, it takes time to remove the cured resin 170 on the front side (front side) of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160, and the back side (back side) of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160. In other words, it is more difficult to remove the cured resin 170 that has entered the gap 200 because it cannot be directly accessed, and the cured resin 170 in the gap 200 is used for the caulking pin 160 and the sealed portion 150. Since the and are kept bonded, it is difficult to remove the crimping pin 160. Therefore, it is difficult to illegally open the substrate case 74. As a result, it is possible to provide a slot machine (gaming machine) capable of reducing fraud.

Further, the receiving recessed portion 152 provided at the inlet side peripheral portion of the bottomed locking hole 151 in the sealed portion 150 has the caulking pin 160 inserted and locked in the recessed space. In the state where the head 162 of 160 is positioned, the uncured space is filled with the pre-curing resin and cured, so that the head 162 is covered with the cured resin 170 while the head 162 is positioned in the dented space of the receiving recess 152. Therefore, it is difficult to illegally remove the cured resin 170 in the hollow space. Further, since the gap portion 200 is a predetermined gap provided between the recessed surface of the receiving recess 152 and the insertion side surface of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160, the recessed surface of the receiving recess 152 and the head of the caulking pin 160 are formed. The cured resin 170 can also be wrapped around and adhered to the gap portion 200 between the insertion side surface of the portion 162. For example, even if the cured resin 170 of the sealing member 140 is to be removed using an unauthorized thin member. It is more difficult to remove the hardened resin 170 because the hardened resin 170 wrapping around the insertion surface side (back side) of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 in the receiving recess 152, that is, the gap portion 200 cannot be directly accessed. Moreover, the state where the caulking pin 160 and the sealed portion 150 are adhered by the cured resin 170 in the gap 200 in the receiving recess 152 is maintained, and it is difficult to remove the caulking pin 160. Therefore, it is difficult to illegally open the substrate case 74. As a result, it is possible to provide a gaming machine capable of reducing fraud.

The head 162 of the caulking pin 160 is provided with a tray portion 166 filled with pre-curing resin on the front side surface thereof. The tray portion 166 is provided with an inflow hole 167 penetrating the insertion side surface of the head portion 162 at a part outside the insertion locking portion 161 when viewed from the insertion direction of the caulking pin 160. Therefore, when the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150, the pan 166 of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 is filled with the pre-curing resin. The pre-curing resin can easily flow into the gap side 200 through the inflow hole 167 of the tray 166 toward the insertion side surface of the head 162, and the recessed surface of the receiving recess 152 and the insertion side of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160. It is even more difficult to remove the cured resin 170 because the cured resin 170 can also wrap around and be adhered to the gap portion 200 between the gap and the cured resin 170 that has entered the gap portion 200 cannot be directly accessed. Therefore, fraud can be reduced.

Further, the bottomed locking hole 151 is composed of an insertion through hole 71g, a through hole 72f of the protruding portion 72e, and an insertion hole portion 71f. The insertion through hole 71g has a diameter larger than that of the insertion portion where the insertion locking portion 161 of the caulking pin 160 exists, and the through hole 72f of the protrusion 72e has a diameter smaller than that of the insertion through hole 71g. Therefore, the pre-curing resin filled in the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 in the sealed portion 150 in a state where the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150. Can flow into the gap between the insertion through hole 71g and the caulking pin 160 and contact the upper case 71, the lower case 72, and the caulking pin 160. Ultraviolet light easily hits the pre-curing resin in the gap so that it can be easily cured. The hardened resin 170 can bond the three members of the upper case 71, the lower case 72, and the caulking pin 160, and the hardened resin 170 that has entered the insertion through hole 71g of the bottomed locking hole 151 cannot be removed. It is more difficult and can reduce fraud.

Next, the board case 74 of the slot machine 10 according to the fourth embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.

Similarly, it is circular in a front view, is not provided with the inner peripheral protruding portion 153 of the second embodiment, and is different from the first to third embodiments in that the back side of the receiving recess 152 is sloped. .. Note that the description of the same configuration as that of the first to third embodiments is omitted here.

The opening diameter of the receiving concave portion 152 of the fourth embodiment is sufficiently larger than the diameter of the head portion 162 of the crimping pin 160, and as shown in FIG. It is easy to fill the pre-curing resin between the concave portion 152 and the pre-curing resin easily enters the insertion surface side of the caulking pin 160, as shown in FIG.

When the caulking pin 160 of the fourth embodiment is inserted into the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150 as shown in FIG. 23B, the caulking pin 160 is provided as shown in FIGS. 22 and 23A. The insertion locking portion 161 is locked in the bottomed locking hole 151. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 23A, the insertion locking portion 161 of the caulking pin 160 is locked in the insertion hole portion 71f of the case top 71 which is the inner side of the bottomed locking hole 151.

As shown in FIG. 23( a ), the insertion through hole 71 g on the case upper portion 71 has a larger diameter than the insertion locking portion 161 of the caulking pin 160, and the through hole 72 f of the protruding portion 72 e on the case lower portion 72 is The diameter is smaller than the insertion through hole 71g. As shown in FIG. 23A, the tip of the caulking pin 160 is inserted into the insertion hole portion 71f of the case upper portion 71, and the insertion locking portion 161 of the caulking pin 160 is protruded from the case lower portion 72e. Of the through hole 72f is locked to a peripheral portion of the rear side through opening.

Further, as shown in FIG. 23( a ), in a state where the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150, the head 162 of the caulking pin 160 and the sealed portion are sealed. A gap portion 200, which is a predetermined gap, is formed between the portion 150 and the portion 150. In the fourth embodiment, the diameter of the insertion through hole 71g on the case 71 is made larger than the diameter of the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160, and the pin length of the caulking pin 160 is made longer, whereby the head of the caulking pin 160 is increased. The gap portion 200 is formed between the insertion surface side of the portion 162 and the peripheral portion of the through hole 72f in the lower case 72. The gap portion 200 is a gap provided between the recessed surface of the receiving recess 152 and the insertion side surface of the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160.

As shown in FIG. 23A, when the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150, the head of the caulking pin 160 in the sealed portion 150 is locked. When the pre-curing resin is filled in the location of the portion 162, that is, the receiving concave portion 152, the pre-curing resin has entered the gap 200, and by irradiating with ultraviolet rays in this state, it also enters the gap 200. The cured resin 170 has been cured.

By inserting the caulking pin 160 into the gap portion 200 in which a predetermined gap is formed between the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160 and the sealed portion 150, and the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150. In the locked state, a cured resin 170 that is cured in a state where it is filled in the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160 in the sealed portion 150 and wraps around the gap portion 200 is also provided. Therefore, the sealed portion 150 and the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160, that is, the case upper portion 71 or the case lower portion 72 and the caulking pin 160 can be bonded with the cured resin 170. Further, since the curable resin 170 also wraps around and adheres to the gap portion 200 between the head portion 162 of the crimp pin 160 and the sealed portion 150, for example, the curable resin 170 of the sealing member 140 is illegal. Even if an attempt is made to remove it using a thin member, it takes time to remove the cured resin 170 on the front side (front side) of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160, and the back side (back side) of the head 162 of the caulking pin 160. In other words, it is more difficult to remove the cured resin 170 that has entered the gap 200 because it cannot be directly accessed, and the cured resin 170 in the gap 200 is used for the caulking pin 160 and the sealed portion 150. Since the and are kept bonded, it is difficult to remove the crimping pin 160. Therefore, it is difficult to illegally open the substrate case 74. As a result, it is possible to provide a slot machine (gaming machine) capable of reducing fraud.

Further, the receiving recessed portion 152 provided at the inlet side peripheral portion of the bottomed locking hole 151 in the sealed portion 150 has the caulking pin 160 inserted and locked in the recessed space.

As shown in FIG. 25E, an insertion tip opening 233 of the hollow hole 231 is formed in the facing surface 232. As shown in FIG. 25C, the insertion tip opening 233 is smaller than the hole diameter (the inner diameter of the cylinder, which is the body 236 portion) in the portion other than the insertion tip opening 233 in the first pin 230.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 24, 25, and 29, the first pin 230 is provided with a guide dish portion 234 larger than the inner diameter of the hollow hole 231 at a position on the insertion rear end side of the hollow hole 231. .. As shown in FIG. 29, the guide tray portion 234 is formed so as to communicate with the hollow hole 231 so as to guide the filled pre-curing resin to the hollow hole 231.

As shown in FIGS. 24, 26, and 29, the second pin 240 has an insertion rod portion 241 inserted into the hollow hole 231 of the first pin 230 and a head portion 242 connected to this insertion rod portion. I have it.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 28, the caulking pin 160 has the tip of the second pin 240 and the inner part of the hollow hole 231 of the first pin 230 in a state where the second pin 240 is inserted into the hollow hole 231 of the first pin 230. A reservoir 235 for accumulating the cured resin is provided between the side and the side.

As shown in FIG. 28, when the caulking pin 160 is inserted into the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150 and locked, the tip surface of the caulking pin 160 and the bottom surface of the bottomed locking hole 151. The distance between and is constant.

As shown in FIG. 28, by inserting the first pin 230 into the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150, the insertion locking part 161 of the first pin 230 engages with the bottomed locking hole 151. Since it is stopped, the first pin 230 cannot be pulled out. Further, by inserting the second pin 240 in a state where the hollow hole 231 of the first pin 230 is filled with the pre-curing resin, the pre-curing resin is pushed out to the bottom of the bottomed locking hole 151, and the second pin Since 240 is in an inserted state in which it is close to or abutted in the hollow hole 231 of the first pin 230, an attempt is made to bend the insertion locking portion 161 of the first pin 230 inward by applying an incorrect force. However, since the second pin 240 is present, such bending is limited and the insertion locking portion 161 is prevented from coming off.

The above-mentioned first pin 230 corresponds to the hollow member in the present invention, the above-mentioned second pin 240 corresponds to the inserting member in the present invention, and the above-mentioned guide dish 234 corresponds to the guide recess in the present invention.

As described above, according to the slot machine 10 of the fifth embodiment, the caulking pin 160 has the insertion locking portion 161 at the outer peripheral portion and the hollow hole 231 through which the inside penetrates in the insertion direction. The first pin 230 inserted into the hole 151 and the second pin 240 inserted into the hollow hole 231 of the first pin 230 are provided, and the cured resin inserts the first pin 230 into the bottomed locking hole 151. Then, after injecting the pre-curing resin into the hollow hole 231 of the first pin 230 and then inserting the second pin 240, the pre-curing resin is cured while being pushed out to the bottom of the bottomed locking hole 151. It was made. Therefore, the pre-curing resin can be directly supplied to the bottom of the bottomed locking hole 151 without adhering to the entrance side of the bottomed locking hole 151 or the like. The tip of the squeeze pin 160 can be reliably adhered by the cured resin 170.

Further, the first pin 230 is provided with a facing surface 232 facing the hole bottom of the bottomed locking hole 151 on the insertion tip side. An insertion tip opening 233 of the hollow hole 231 is formed in the facing surface 232. The insertion tip opening 233 is smaller than the hole diameter in the portion other than the insertion tip opening 233 in the first pin 230. Therefore, the contact area between the tip of the first pin 230 and the cured resin 170 can be increased, and the bottomed locking hole 151 and the caulking pin 160 (the first pin 230 and the second pin 240) formed by the cured resin 170. The adhesive force can be improved as the contact area increases.

In addition, the caulking pin 160 has a cured resin between the tip of the second pin 240 and the inner side of the hollow hole 231 of the first pin 230 when the second pin 240 is inserted into the hollow hole 231 of the first pin 230. Since the hardened resin 170 is provided in the hollow hole 231 and near the insertion tip opening 233, the hardened resin 170 is stored in the hollow hole 231. The inner side of the hollow hole 231 and the tip of the second pin 240 can be adhered to each other, and the cured resin 170 of the pool portion 235 becomes a lump (having a diameter larger than the insertion tip opening 233), and the insertion tip opening 233. Since the resin is cured in a state of being bonded to the cured resin 170 between the bottom of the bottomed locking hole 151 and the tip of the first pin 230, the tip of the first pin 230 is sandwiched by the cured resin 170. They can be adhered in a state, the contact area between the tip of the first pin 230 and the cured resin 170 can be further increased, and the bottomed locking hole 151 and the caulking pin 160 (the first pin 230 and The adhesive force with the second pin 240) can be improved with the increase of the contact area, and the caulking pin 160 can be more difficult to come off.

Further, when the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150, the distance between the tip surface of the caulking pin 160 and the bottom surface of the bottomed locking hole 151 is constant. Therefore, the pre-curing resin filled in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150 has a front surface of the caulking pin 160 when the caulking pin 160 is inserted into the bottomed locking hole 151. The thickness between the bottom locking hole 151 and the bottom surface of the hole is constant, and the curing time of the cured resin 170 can be shortened.

In addition, the first pin 230 is provided with a guide dish portion 234 larger than the inner diameter of the hollow hole 231 at a position on the insertion rear end side of the hollow hole 231. The guide dish 234 is formed to communicate with the hollow hole 231. That is, since the guide dish portion 234 has a larger diameter than the hollow hole 231, it is possible to easily fill the pre-curing resin into the guide dish portion 234. In addition, the pre-curing resin filled in the guide dish 234 is guided by its own weight into the hollow hole 231 and finally between the bottom of the bottomed locking hole 151 and the tip of the first pin 230. The pre-curing resin can be smoothly guided to the bottom of the bottomed locking hole 151. Therefore, the workability of filling the resin before curing is excellent.

The cured resin 170 may be filled and cured in a portion between the insertion locking portion 161 of the caulking pin 160 and the inner circumference of the bottomed locking hole 151. For example, when the second pin 240 is inserted into the hollow hole 231 of the first pin 230 in a state where the amount of the unhardened resin filled in the hollow hole 231 of the first pin 230 is increased, the pre-cured resin is caulked with the crimp pin 160. It reaches a portion between the insertion locking portion 161 and the inner circumference of the bottomed locking hole 151, and is cured in that state. In this case, not only the tip of the caulking pin 160 and the bottom of the bottomed locking hole 151 are adhered by the cured resin 170, but also the insertion locking part 161 of the caulking pin 160 and the bottomed locking hole 151 of the caulking pin 160. The inner periphery is also adhered by the cured resin 170, which makes it difficult to remove the caulking pin 160.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and may have another configuration having the same effect, and can be modified and implemented as follows, for example.

<1> In each of the above-described embodiments, the electronic component mounting surface of the main control board 73 is attached to the inner side surface of the case top 71 in a state of being opposed to the inner side surface of the case top 71. You may make it attach so that the soldering surface of may face the case 71. Although the main control board 73 is attached to the upper case 71, it may be attached to the lower case 72, or the electronic component mounting surface of the main control board 73 may be attached to the inner surface of the lower case 72 so as to face it. Alternatively, the solder surfaces may be opposed to each other.

<2> As shown in FIGS. 30(a) and 30(b), the case upper portion 71 has an enclosure wall 210 surrounding the boundary surface BL between the case upper portion 71 and the case lower portion 72 at the position where the sealing member 140 exists. It may be provided. In this case, since the boundary wall 210 of the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 at the location where the sealing member 140 exists is surrounded by the enclosure wall 210 of the upper case 71, the boundary surface BL is incorrect. It is possible to make it difficult to insert the thin member, and it is difficult to insert an incorrect thin member into the boundary surface BL and separate the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 at the place where the sealing means exists. be able to. Further, even if an illegal thin member is inserted at the boundary between the enclosure wall 210 of the case upper portion 71 and the case lower portion 72 which does not have the enclosure wall 210, only a force is applied in the direction of bending the enclosure wall 210. Since no force is applied in the direction in which the boundary surface BL is separated, that is, in the direction in which the caulking pin 160 is pulled out, even if an illegal thin member is forcedly inserted along the surrounding wall 210, the sealing member 140 cannot be unsealed. .. As a result, it is possible to provide a gaming machine using the substrate case 74 that can reduce unauthorized opening. Also, the same effect is obtained when the enclosure wall 210 is provided in the lower case 72.

<3> As shown in FIG. 31, the bottomed locking hole 151 has a through hole 220 formed in the case upper portion 71 and having a diameter larger than that of the insertion locking portion 161 of the caulking pin 160, and a case lower portion 72. It may be a two-stage hole that is formed to have a smaller diameter than the through-hole portion 220 and communicate with the rear side hole portion 221 that locks the insertion locking portion 161. In this case, the pre-curing resin filled in the receiving recess 152 of the sealed portion 150 penetrates while the caulking pin 160 is inserted and locked in the bottomed locking hole 151 of the sealed portion 150. It can flow into the space between the hole 220 and the insertion locking portion 161, and can be cured while being in contact with the case upper part 71, the case lower part 72, and the caulking pin 160. 72 and the caulking pin 160 can be adhered to each other, and it is more difficult to remove the hardened resin 170 that has entered even the through hole portion 220 of the bottomed locking hole 151, and fraud can be reduced. ..

<4> The upper case 71 and the lower case 72 of each of the above-described embodiments adopt a configuration in which the upper case 71 and the lower case 72 are closed by sliding at least one of them in a combined state. However, it is also possible to adopt a fitting structure without a slide, a configuration in which the rotary shaft is used as a shaft, and the rotary shaft is combined.

<5> As shown in FIG. 32, a notched groove portion 168 may be provided on the base end side of the extending portion 164 of the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160. Further, in FIG. 32, the cutout groove portion 168 is formed on the insertion surface side of the head portion 162 on the proximal end side of the extension portion 164, but the cutout groove portion 168 extends on the front surface side of the head portion 162. It may be formed on the base end side of the portion 164. Moreover, you may make it provide the notch groove part 168 in the base end side of the extending part 164 of the head part 162 of the crimping pin 160 of Examples 2-4. In this case, since the extending portion 164 is provided with the cutout groove portion 168 on the base end side thereof, the surface area of the cutout groove portion 168 of the extending portion 164 is further equal to the surface area of the cut resin portion 168. The adhesive area between the head 162 and the cured resin 170 is further improved by the increased area, and the cutout groove 168 easily breaks the extension 164. Therefore, the fragile portion 163 that is more easily broken can be formed, and if the cured resin 170 is to be removed using an unauthorized thin member, the head of the caulking pin 160 is accompanied by the unauthorized removal of the cured resin 170. The extending portion 164 of the 162 is broken at the notch groove portion 168, and the extending portion 164 is removed together with the cured resin 170 that has been removed. Even when used, it can be seen that the substrate case 74 is opened by observing the breakage of the extending portion 164 of the head portion 162 of the crimping pin 160.

<6> Although the groove portion 165 is provided on the surface side of the head portion 162 of the caulking pin 160 of the second embodiment described above (see FIG. 16), the groove portion 165 may be omitted.

<7> In each of the above-described embodiments, the fixed release destructible portion 180 is supposed to be cut and destroyed at a predetermined location with a cutting tool. For example, the thickness of the fixed release destructible portion 180 is different from that at another location. It may be made thinner than the above, and may be broken by pressing the fixed release destructible portion 180.

<8> In each of the above-described embodiments, the board case 74 that accommodates the main control board 73 therein is described as an example. However, various control boards such as a display control board other than the main control board 73 are internally provided. It is also possible to adopt it for the substrate case 74 that is housed in.

<9> In each of the above-described embodiments, the board case 74 accommodates the main control board 73 in the internal space of the case upper part 71 and the case lower part 72 combined. After the main control board 73 is attached, the mounting surface side of the main control board 73 on the case 71 is covered with another member, and at least a part of this other member is covered with the case lower 72. 72 may be sealed with the sealing member 140 so that the substrate case 74 cannot be opened.

<10> In each of the above-described embodiments, the sealing member 140 is used for sealing (caulking) the substrate case 74, but the sealing member 140 is sealing (caulking) between the substrate case 74 and the mounting base 100. Or may be used for sealing (caulking) various parts. For example, parts that are troubled if they are illegally replaced or modified in a distribution process or a game hall (hall) are a payout device, a start lever, a stop switch, and the like.

<11> In the above-described embodiments, the present invention may be applied to various types (for example, first type, third type, etc.) of gaming machines, or to a pachinko machine of a type different from the above-described examples. Good. For example, a pachinko machine that raises the expectation value for a jackpot once it hits the jackpot multiple times (for example, twice or three times) including that (commonly known as a two-time title, a three-time title, and ).). Further, it may be carried out as a pachinko machine which is in a special game state on condition that a ball is won in a predetermined area after the jackpot pattern is displayed. Further, it may be implemented as a pachinko machine that enters a special game state when a ball enters a predetermined winning opening. Further, in addition to a pachinko machine, various game machines such as an arrangement ball type pachinko machine, a sparrow ball, and a game machine in which a so-called pachinko machine and a slot machine are integrated may be implemented.

As a specific example of a gaming machine in which a pachinko machine and a slot machine are integrated, a variable display means for variably displaying a symbol row consisting of a plurality of symbols and then confirming the symbol is provided, and a handle for ball launching is provided. Some things we don't have. In this case, after the insertion of a predetermined amount of game balls based on a predetermined operation (button operation), the fluctuation of the symbol is started due to the operation of the operation lever, for example, due to the operation of the stop button, or the predetermined By the passage of time, the fluctuation of the symbol is stopped, and a jackpot state advantageous to the player is generated on condition that the definite symbol at the time of stopping is a so-called jackpot symbol, and the player has a saucer at the bottom. A lot of balls are paid out to.

Note that the present specification also discloses the following inventions relating to the gaming machine.
Conventionally, for example, a pachinko machine is a typical example of a game machine.
