A mounting base 21 made of, for example, a resin material is mounted in front of the right frame sheet metal 20, and an LED substrate 9 is mounted on the mounting base 21. An LED 9a (decorative lamp 120w) is mounted on the LED substrate 9 (see FIG. 14).
An inner cover 12 having irregularities for diffusing the light emitted from the LED 9a is arranged in front of the LED substrate 9, and a decorative cover 5 having irregularities for diffusing the light is also formed in front of the inner cover 12. Is installed.
The inner cover 12 and the decorative cover 5 are also provided on the left side portion 4 and the upper side portion 1.

As shown in FIG. 24, the LED substrate 9 may be held by being sandwiched between the inner cover 12 and the mounting base 21. In this case, a dedicated screw or the like for attaching the LED board 9 is not required. That is, when the inner cover 12 is fixed to the mounting base 21, the LED substrate 9 is also fixed to the mounting base 21. This contributes to the reduction of the number of parts and the cost. In addition, it is possible to reduce the installation man-hours.
Further, since the LED substrate 9 does not need to be provided with screw holes, it is possible to effectively utilize the component mounting surface and prevent the occurrence of powder blowing by the screws.

Further, even when a part of the inner cover 12 is provided apart from the mounting base 21 as shown in FIG. 14, a holding portion is provided on the rear surface of the inner cover 12, and when the inner cover 12 is mounted, the holding portion is provided. The pressing portion may be configured to press the LED substrate 9 from the front so that the LED substrate 9 is fixed.

The harness cover 19, a part of the right frame sheet metal 20, the mounting base 21, the LED board 9, and the inner cover 12 are arranged in the arrangement space 23 formed by the door base 17 and the decorative cover 5 (FIG. 6). 14).
At least a part of the inner cover 12 and the decorative cover 5 is formed of a transparent member, a translucent member, or the like that allows light from the LED 9a to pass through. Specifically, it is tempered glass, acrylic material, polycarbonate material, or the like. The decorative cover 5 has a function as a protective cover provided so that the player cannot directly touch the LED 9a.
The inner cover 12 is not an indispensable configuration, and the inner cover 12 may not be provided in each example described later. Further, the arrangement mode of the inner cover 12 shown in FIG. 14 is an example, and other examples will be described later.

The outer side surface of the decorative cover 5 is the outer side surface portion 5a, the inner side surface portion is the inner side surface portion 5b, and the front side surface is the front surface portion 5c (FIGS. 1, 1). (See Fig. 2).

A plurality of decorative lamps 120w are arranged around the game area (outer peripheral side). Of the plurality of decorative lamps 120w, some are arranged apart from each other in the left-right direction, and some are arranged apart from each other in the vertical direction.

As described above, the area in which the player mainly directs his / her line of sight during the game is defined as the game area. Therefore, the decorative lamp 120w arranged around the game area emits light that efficiently irradiates the game area.

The right side portion 3 of the front door 105 may be divided other than the outer side surface portion 3a, the inner side surface portion 3b, and the front surface portion 3c.
For example, the front door 105 has a plurality of decorative covers 5 attached to the door base 17. Specifically, there are a decorative cover 5 that constitutes the right side portion 3, a decorative cover 5 that constitutes the left side portion 4, and the like. These plurality of decorative covers 5 can be treated as a decorative body 27 composed of a plurality of members. That is, the decorative body 27 is arranged so as to surround the peripheral edge portion of the transparent glass 15 (or to surround the game area).
Such a decorative body 27 may be divided into an inner portion 27b as a side facing the game area and an outer portion 27a as a side opposite to the inner portion 27b. Specifically, in FIG. 52, the region outside the alternate long and short dash line is the outer portion 27a, and the region inside the alternate long and short dash line is the inner portion 27b. The outer portion 27a and the inner portion 27b are separated by a certain point or ridgeline. In this case, the outer side surface portion 3a of the right side portion 3, the outer side surface portion of the left side portion 4, and the upper surface portion 1a of the upper side portion 1 are referred to as the outer side portion 27a. Further, the inner side surface portion 3b of the right side portion 3, the inner side surface portion of the left side portion 4, and the lower surface portion 1b of the upper side portion 1 are referred to as inner portions 27b.

The inner portion 27b on the side facing the game area 103a corresponds to the inner side surface portion 3b and the shape of the decorative cover 5 (or the shape of the right side portion 3), taking the right side portion 3 in the embodiment as an example. Depending on the case, all or a part of the front surface portion 3c may correspond to the inner portion 27b.
That is, when the side facing the game area 103a and the side opposite to the game area 103a are divided, the portion facing the game area 103a corresponds to the "inner part".
Similarly, the outer side portion 27a opposite to the side facing the game area 103a corresponds to the outer side surface portion 3a and the shape of the decorative cover 5 (or, for example, the right side portion 3 in the embodiment). Depending on the shape of the right side portion 3), all or part of the front surface portion 3c may correspond to the outer portion 27a.
That is, when the side facing the game area 103a and the side opposite to the game area 103a are divided, the portion on the opposite side corresponds to the "outer portion".

15 and 16 show an enlarged part of the right side portion 3.
15A, 15B, and 15C are perspective views showing the right side portion 3 from the outside. 16A, 16B, and 16C are perspective views showing the right side portion 3 from the inside.
As shown in each figure, the right side portion 3 has one light transmitting portion 6 or a plurality of light transmitting portions 6, 6, ... On the outer side (right side) and the inner side (left side), respectively. Is provided. When the light transmitting portion 6 is provided with an uneven shape, the light emitted from the decorative lamp 120w arranged inside the right side portion 3 is diffused when passing through the light transmitting portion 6 and is a bullet. It is emitted to the outside of the game machine 100.
As a result, it is possible to perform an effective light effect using the effect light emitted from the decorative lamp 120w.

A part of the light transmitting portion 6 is a visual viewing portion 7 for visually recognizing the decorative lamp 120w arranged inside.
In the present embodiment, the visual recognition unit 7 can be considered by any of the three definitions shown below.

<Definition 1>
The viewing unit 7 may refer to an LED 9a (decorative lamp 120w) provided inside the front door 105 that is directly visible (verifiable).
With the visual recognition unit 7 according to the definition 1, a defect of the LED 9a can be clearly found, and maintainability can be significantly improved.

<Definition 2>
Further, the visual recognition unit 7 may refer to one of the LEDs 9a provided inside the front door 105 in which the light emitted from one of the targeted LEDs 9a is visible (verifiable). That is, the lighting and non-lighting states of the LED 9a to be visually recognized may be recognizable.
By the definition of the visual recognition unit 7, since the LED 9a cannot be directly visually recognized, it is possible to confirm the defect of each LED 9a while considering the appearance design, and the maintainability is improved.

<Definition 3>
Further, the visual recognition unit 7 may refer to an LED substrate 9 on which the failed LED 9a is mounted, which can be identified (confirmed). For example, even if it is not possible to specify which LED 9a has failed and turned off, if the LED board 9 on which the LED 9a is mounted can be specified, the LED board 9 that needs to be replaced has the front door 105. Since it can be identified without disassembling, it is possible to improve maintainability. This is applicable when a plurality of LEDs 9a, 9a, ... Are densely arranged.

Next, some examples will be described with respect to the aspect of the visual recognition unit 7.
First, as a first example of the visual recognition portion 7, both the visual recognition portion 7 and the peripheral portion 8 (or the partition portion 25) have light transmission, but the visual recognition portion 7 is higher than the peripheral portion 8 (or the partition portion 25). An example having visibility will be described.
For example, as the visible portion 7 of the outer side surface portion 5a, as shown in each of FIGS. 15A, 15B, and 15C, the portion of the light transmitting portion 6 of the visible portion 7 is formed of a member or shape having high transparency. The peripheral portion 8 of the visual recognition portion 7 is formed of a member or shape having a lower transparency than the visual recognition portion 7.
High transparency means, for example, a state in which diffused light is less than all transmitted light. That is, each part arranged inside is in a state where it is easy to see.
On the contrary, when the transparency is low, it means that the light emitted from the inside can be recognized, but the visibility of each part arranged inside is inferior.
The peripheral portion 8 may be a part of the light transmitting portion 6 excluding the visual viewing portion 7, or may be the entire portion of the light transmitting portion 6 excluding the visual visual portion 7. .. Further, the peripheral portion 8 may be formed of an opaque member without including the light transmitting portion 6.

In FIG. 15A, substantially all of the outer side surface portion 3a of the right side portion 3 which is a part of the decorative cover 5 is a light transmitting portion 6, and a part thereof is a viewing portion 7. The visual recognition portion 7 is a plain and transparent member having no irregularities formed on the inner surface and / or the outer surface.
The peripheral portion 8 around the visible portion 7 is substantially all the portions (indicated by the satin finish in the drawing) of the outer side surface portion 5a of the decorative cover 5 except for the visible portion 7, and is formed of a translucent member. ing.

In FIG. 15B, three light transmitting portions 6, 6 and 6 are formed on the outer side surface portion 3a of the right side portion 3. Each of the three light transmitting portions 6 is formed with a viewing portion 7 and a peripheral portion 8.
The visual recognition portion 7 is a transparent member having no irregularities formed on the inner surface and / or the outer surface, and the peripheral portion 8 shown by a satin finish in the drawing is formed of a translucent member. Of the portions constituting the outer side surface portion 3a of the right side portion 3, the portion other than the light transmitting portion 6 (filled portion in the drawing) and the part of the door base 17 (first) in the outer side surface portion 5a of the decorative cover 5. The protruding plate 17b) is made of an opaque member.

In FIG. 15C, two light transmitting portions 6 and 6 are formed on the outer side surface portion 3a of the right side portion 3 (the outer side surface portion 5a of the decorative cover 5). Of the light transmitting portions 6 and 6, the light transmitting portion 6 located above is formed with two viewing portions 7 and 7, and the other portions are peripheral portions 8. The light transmitting portion 6 located below is not formed with the visible portion 7, and is regarded as the non-visible portion 16. The visual recognition portion 7 is a transparent member having no irregularities formed on the inner surface and / or the outer surface, and the peripheral portion 8 is formed of a translucent member. Of the portions constituting the outer side surface portion 3a of the right side portion 3, the portion other than the light transmitting portion 6 (filled portion in the drawing) and the part of the door base 17 (first) in the outer side surface portion 5a of the decorative cover 5. The protruding plate 17b) is made of an opaque member.

As described above, both the visual recognition portion 7 and the peripheral portion 8 have light transmission, but the aspect in which the visual recognition portion 7 has higher visibility than the peripheral portion 8 can also be applied to the inner side surface portion 5b. As will be described later, it can also be applied to the case where the visual recognition portion 7 is provided on the upper surface portion 1a of the upper side portion 1.

As a second example of the visual recognition unit 7, an example in which the visual recognition unit 7 surrounded by a member having no light transmission is provided will be described.
As shown in each of FIGS. 16A, 16B, and 16C, the peripheral portion 8 of the visible portion 7 of the light transmitting portion 6 is formed of a member having no light transmission, and the portion of the visible portion 7 is formed from the peripheral portion 8. Is also made of a transparent member. The visual recognition unit 7 may have high transparency so that the inside can be recognized, or may have low transparency so that the light emitted from the inside cannot be recognized but the inside cannot be recognized.

In FIG. 16A, of the inner side surface portion 3b of the right side portion 3 (inner side surface portion 5b of the decorative cover 5), a part of the light transmitting portion 6 and the entire region designated as the light transmitting portion 6 are visible portions. It is said to be 7. The other portion (filled portion in the drawing) of the inner side surface portion 3b is a peripheral portion 8 of the visual recognition portion 7.

In FIG. 16B, three light transmitting portions 6, 6 and 6 are provided on the inner side surface portion 3b of the right side portion 3 (inner side surface portion 5b of the decorative cover 5), and each light transmitting portion 6 is a visible portion. It is said to be 7. The other portion (filled portion in the drawing) of the inner side surface portion 3b is a peripheral portion 8 of the three visual recognition portions 7, 7, 7.

In FIG. 16C, four light transmitting portions 6, 6, 6, 6 are provided on the inner side surface portion 3b of the right side portion 3 (inner side surface portion 5b of the decorative cover 5), and two of them are the viewing portions 7. The non-visible part 16 is not provided, and the remaining two are the visible parts 7 and 7. The peripheral portion of the two visual recognition portions 7 and 7 is the peripheral portion 8.
The light transmitting portion 6 as the visible portion 7 is a transparent member having no irregularities formed on the inner and outer surfaces, and the light transmitting portions 6 and 6 as the non-visible portion 16 are formed of, for example, a translucent member. Has been done. The peripheral portion 8 is formed of an opaque member.

As a third example of the visual recognition portion 7, an example in which different uneven shapes are formed on the visual recognition portion 7 and its peripheral portion 8 will be described.
FIG. 17A is a side view of the decorative cover 5 as viewed from the outer side surface portion 5a side, and FIG. 17B is a sectional view taken along the line AA of FIG. 17A. In the examples shown in FIGS. 17A and 17B, substantially the entire outer side surface portion 5a of the decorative cover 5 is a light transmitting portion 6, and a part of the light transmitting portion 6 is a viewing portion 7. Two viewing units 7 are provided, and the periphery of each viewing unit 7 is a peripheral portion 8.
In the third example of the visual recognition portion 7, as shown in FIG. 17B, different uneven shapes are formed in the visual recognition portion 7 and the peripheral portion 8 in the light transmitting portion 6. Specifically, the visual recognition portion 7 and the peripheral portion 8 are formed with an uneven shape on the inner surface for diffusing the light emitted from the decorative lamp 120w arranged inside in order to produce light emission. Since the uneven shapes formed on the inner surfaces of the visual viewing portion 7 and the peripheral portion 8 are different shapes, the light diffusion mode is made different.
As a result, the visual recognition unit 7 is provided with a function for finding a defect of the LED 9a while functioning as a diffuser plate.

The uneven shape formed on the inner surface of the visual recognition portion 7 is formed to be a gentler shape than the uneven shape formed on the inner surface of the peripheral portion 8. As a result, the visibility portion 7 has higher visibility to the inside of the right side portion 3 than the peripheral portion 8.
As another example in which the concave-convex shape formed in the visual recognition portion 7 and the concave-convex shape formed in the peripheral portion 8 are different, the shapes of the peaks and valleys are the same, but the intervals between the shapes of the peaks and valleys are different. It may have been. Specifically, the uneven shape formed in the visual recognition portion 7 may have a mountain-to-mountain distance of 5 mm, and the uneven shape formed in the peripheral portion 8 may have a mountain-to-mountain distance of 1 mm. This also makes it possible to make the visibility of the inside of the visibility portion 7 higher than that of the peripheral portion 8.

As a fourth example of the viewing unit 7, an example in which the viewing unit 7 can be opened and closed will be described.
As shown in FIG. 18, the visual recognition portion 7 in the light transmitting portion 6 is a sliding window.
FIG. 18A is a diagram showing a state in which the visual recognition unit 7 is closed, and FIG. 18B is a diagram showing a state in which the visual recognition unit 7 is open.
The sliding visual recognition unit 7 is made of, for example, a translucent member, and it is possible to grasp the lighting state of the LED 9a arranged inside even in the closed state. Further, when the LED 9a is opened, it is possible to grasp which of the LEDs 9a arranged inside is out of order.
The peripheral portion 8 of the visual recognition portion 7 may be formed of an opaque member, or may have an uneven shape for diffusing light inside. At least, the visibility is lower than that of the visibility unit 7.
If the failed LED board 9 can be identified in the closed state, and if it is sufficient to identify which board is broken, maintenance is performed with the visual recognition unit 7 closed, and the failure occurs. When it is necessary to specify the LED 9a, maintenance may be performed with the visual recognition unit 7 open.
That is, it is possible to operate the ball game machine 100 according to the mode of maintenance.

As a fifth example of the visual recognition unit 7, another example in which the visual recognition unit 7 can be opened and closed will be described.
As shown in FIG. 19, the visual recognition portion 7 in the light transmitting portion 6 is an openable / closable window.
FIG. 19A is a diagram showing a state in which the visual recognition unit 7 is closed, and FIG. 19B is a diagram showing a state in which the visual recognition unit 7 is open.
When the definition 1 described above is applied to the viewing unit 7, for example, the LED 9a mounted on the LED substrate 9 can be directly viewed in the open state. Further, in the state where the visual recognition unit 7 is closed, the light emission of the LED 9a can be confirmed. The mode of visibility for each of the LED 9a in the open state and the closed state is only an example, and various other examples can be considered. For example, instead of the visible portion 7 having a hole shape that allows access to the arrangement space 23 in the open state, a transparent plate-shaped member may be provided inside. In that case, a concavo-convex shape for diffusing light is formed in the visibility portion 7 to reduce visibility to the inside, and in the open state, high visibility to the inside is maintained through a transparent plate-shaped member. May be. This makes it possible to prevent unauthorized access to the inside of the ball game machine 100. Regarding this point, the same configuration can be adopted for the visual recognition unit 7 which is a sliding window shown in FIG.
The same effect as that of the viewing unit 7 which is a sliding window can be obtained in the viewing unit 7 which is an opening / closing window.

It should be noted that the modes of the visual recognition unit 7 shown in each of FIGS. 15 to 19 can be combined in any way except when the combination is not rational. For example, FIG. 15A and FIG. 16A may be applied to include both a visual recognition portion 7 having a semi-transparent peripheral portion 8 and a visual recognition portion 7 having an opaque peripheral portion 8.

Further, the visual recognition portion 7 may be provided on the front surface portion 3c of the right side portion 3. When the front surface portion 3c is provided, the operator can identify the light emitted from the LED 9a itself or the LED 9a from the front of the ball game machine 100 via the visual recognition portion 7, and thus high maintainability is obtained. can do.

Hereinafter, various specific examples of the visual recognition unit 7 will be described as <3-1> to <3-87>. Each example of <3-1> to <3-86> corresponds to any one or more of the following types A to D. Applicable types are added in <>.
-Type A: The visual recognition part 7 is on the outer side (outer side surface part 3a) -Type B: The visual recognition part 7 is on the inner side (inner side surface part 3b) -Type C1: The aspect of the visual recognition part 7 is inward Same as outside ・ Type C2: The mode of the visible part 7 is different between the inside and the outside ・ Type D: The visible part 7 is on the upper side (upper surface part 1a of the upper side part 1)

In the description of the type A example in which the visual recognition portion 7 is located on the outside, it is assumed that the visual viewing portion 7 is present or not inside, regardless of the illustration of each example.
Similarly, in the description of the type B example in which the visual recognition unit 7 is located inside, it is assumed that the visual recognition unit 7 is present or not outside, regardless of the illustration of each example.
Similarly, in the description of the type D example in which the visual recognition portion 7 is located above, it is assumed that there is no visual recognition portion 7 on the outside or inside, one on one side, or one on both sides.
Further, although the “outer” is described assuming the outer side surface portion 3a of the right side portion 3, each example can also be realized as the outer side surface portion of the left side portion.
Similarly, although the “inner side” is described assuming the inner side surface portion 3a of the right side portion 3, each example can also be realized as the inner side surface portion of the left side portion.

The same or different "modes" in types C1 and C2 are assumed to have the following items as examples.
-Presence / absence of visual recognition part 7 on the outer and inner sides-Number of visual recognition parts 7 on the outer and inner sides-Position of the visual recognition part 7 on the outer and inner sides (whether or not the position corresponds to the horizontal direction)
-Shape of the visible part 7 on the outside and inside-Parts where the visible part 7 is formed on the outside and inside-Functions of the visible part 7 on the outside and inside (separate definitions 1, 2 and 3 above) )
Of course, these are examples, and other the same or different "modes" are envisioned.
And "the same aspect" means that at least one of the above examples is the same.

Further, the visual recognition unit 7 shown in each of the following examples confirms the lighting state and the non-lighting state of a specific light emitting body (decorative lamp 120w, LED9a) among the plurality of LEDs 9a (decorative lamps 120w) provided in the game machine. It is provided so that it is possible. The visual recognition unit 7 may be able to confirm only the lighting state, may be able to confirm only the non-lighting state, and may be able to confirm the lighting state and the non-lighting state of the target light emitter. It may have been.

Various examples can be considered as the specific LED 9a targeted by each visual recognition unit 7. As will be described later, it may be a light emitting body that plays an important role in the production, or may be a light emitting body that plays an important role in the notification.
Further, it may be a light emitting body arranged at a specific position. Specifically, when the visual recognition portion 7 is provided on the outer side surface portion 3a of the right side portion 3, the light emitting body located on the rightmost side of the light emitting bodies located at substantially the same height as the visual recognition portion 7 is emitted. The visual recognition unit 7 may be such that the lighting state / non-lighting state of the body can be confirmed. Similarly, when the visual recognition portion 7 is provided on the inner side surface portion 3b of the right side portion 3, the light emitter targeted by the visual recognition portion 7 is among the light emitters located in the right side portion 3. It may be located at substantially the same height as the visual recognition unit 7 and may be located on the leftmost side.

In addition, another example of a luminous body arranged at a specific position will be given. When a plurality of substrates on which the light emitters are mounted are arranged inside the right side portion 3 in a state of being stacked back and forth, they are placed on the substrate located at the rear (on the substrate far from the player). It may be difficult to confirm the lighting state / non-lighting state of the mounted light emitter. In such a case, the light emitting body placed on the substrate located at the rear may be regarded as the light emitting body arranged at a specific position.

Furthermore, another example of a luminous body arranged at a specific position will be given. Some illuminants are arranged so that a plurality of illuminants are densely arranged in a certain range, and some illuminants are independently arranged at a certain distance from other illuminants.
When any one of the light emitting bodies is in a densely arranged state and the light emitting body is always turned off, it may be difficult to confirm which light emitting body has failed.
In such a case, a plurality of illuminants densely arranged within a certain range may be regarded as illuminants arranged at specific positions.

In other words, the light emitting body that can be visually recognized from the visual recognition unit 7 is recognized by the designer as an important light emitting body, and can be considered as the above-mentioned specific light emitting body.
In each example described later, a light emitting body arranged at a specific position or a specific light emitting body is described as a first light emitting body.

In the light transmitting unit 6, there is a visual recognition unit 7 provided so that the lighting state / non-lighting state of the light emitting body can be confirmed, and an effect light transmitting unit 26 provided for emitting the effect light. The effect light transmitting unit 26 may have a function of only emitting the effect light, or may also have a function as a visual unit 7.
When the effect light transmitting portion 26 is provided with an uneven shape for light diffusion, or when the internal cover 12 is provided between the effect light transmitting portion 26 and the light emitting body, the lighting state / non-lighting state of the light emitting body. It may be difficult to check the lighting status. The visual recognition unit 7 may be provided as such a light emitting body as a light emitting body arranged at a specific position.

<3-1: Type A>
An example of the case where the visual recognition unit 7 is on the outside will be described.
FIG. 14 is a cross-sectional view of the vicinity of the right side portion 3. As shown in the figure, the front door 105 is formed from a part of the light transmitting portions 6, 6, ... Provided on the outer side (right side) and the inner side (left side) of the right side portion 3, respectively. Is able to visually recognize the non-lit decorative lamp 120w arranged inside. That is, even for the visual recognition unit 7, which is a form of the light transmitting portion 6, the non-lighting decorative lamp 120w arranged inside can be visually recognized via the visual recognition unit 7. For example, it can be realized by applying one aspect of the visual recognition unit 7 shown in FIG.

By providing a visible portion 7 on the outer side of the right side portion 3 that allows the decorative lamp 120w in the non-lit state to be visually recognized, it is possible to detect a defect such that the decorative lamp 120w does not light at an early stage. In particular, in the ball game machine 100 in which the player is playing, the decorative lamp 120w may be difficult to see from the visual recognition portion 7 provided on the inner side of the right side portion 3, but in such a state, However, it is preferable because a defect of the decorative lamp 120w can be found from the visual recognition portion 7 provided on the outer side.
In other words, the front door 105 is provided with the front door 105 that can be opened and closed with respect to the front frame 102, and the visual unit 7 that can visually recognize the light emitting body (decorative lamp 120w) arranged inside the front door 105 is the front door 105. It may be formed on the outer side surface portion (outer side surface portion 3a).

Further, in the ball game machine 100 provided with the game area 103a capable of performing a predetermined game, the ball game machine 100 is located on the outer peripheral side of the game area 103a and is arranged with a plurality of light emitting bodies (decorative lamp 120w) arranged in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction. A cover body (decorative cover 5) provided so that the player cannot come into contact with the light emitting body, the light emitting body includes a first light emitting body arranged at a predetermined position, and the cover body includes a game area 103a. An inner portion 27b on the side facing the inner portion and an outer portion 27a on the side opposite to the inner portion 27b, and a visible portion 7 capable of directly recognizing the first light emitting body is provided on the outer portion 27a of the cover body. It may be provided.

More specifically, in the ball game machine 100, at least a part of the peripheral portion that is openably attached to the front frame 102 and extends vertically extends toward the player (right side portion). The front door 105 as described in 3) is provided, and the protruding portion has a light emitting body (decorative lamp 120w) arranged inside, and unevenness for diffusing the light emitted from the light emitting body is formed, and the outer side surface portion (outer side surface) is formed. The above effect can be exhibited by the configuration in which the visual recognition portion 7 capable of visually recognizing the light emitting body is formed in the portion 3a).

Although the decorative cover 5 is provided with the visual recognition portion 7 in FIG. 14, the visual recognition portion 7 may be provided at a place other than the decorative cover 5. In that case, the form can be made so as not to affect the decoration (design).
It is also conceivable that the visual recognition portion 7 is formed only on the outer side surface portion 3a. In particular, it is conceivable that the decorative cover 5 is formed only on the outer side surface portion 5a. In that case, the visual recognition unit 7 can be prevented from affecting the design when viewed from the player.

<3-2: Type B>
An example of the case where the visual recognition unit 7 is inside will be described.
In a situation where a wall or the like is installed on the right side of the ball game machine 100, it may be difficult to check the ball game machine 100 from the outer side (right side) of the right side portion 3. .. In such a case, as shown in FIG. 14, since the visual recognition portion 7 capable of visually recognizing the decorative lamp 120w is provided on the inner side of the right side portion 3, it becomes easier to find a defect of the decorative lamp 120w. Maintenance efficiency can be improved.

For example, if the partition portion 25 is provided only on the inner side surface portion 3b, a transparent portion that emits light to the outside and an opaque portion that does not emit light are mixed as decoration for the production of the inner side surface portion 3b. When the decoration is adopted, the transparent portion for the light effect can be used as the visual recognition unit 7. That is, the visual recognition unit 7 can be provided without hindering the design for the production.
In particular, by not providing the dividing portion 25 and the viewing portion 7 on the outer side surface portion 3a, the viewing portion 7 is located only on the inner side surface portion 3b, and the viewing portion 7 is hidden by the design and is conscious of the player. It becomes difficult.

Further, when the inner side surface portion 3b is provided only with the outer side surface portion 3a without providing the dividing portion 25 and the viewing portion 7, the viewing portions 7 are discrete with the dividing portion 25 sandwiched between the outer side surface portions 3a. Since it is provided in the above, it is difficult for the player to notice it, and since there is no visible portion 7 in the inner side surface portion 3b, the limitation of the design design due to the arrangement of the visible portion 7 can be eliminated.

An example in which the visual recognition unit 7 has different modes on the outside and the inside will be described.
A front door 105 that is openably attached to the front frame 102 and has a substrate (LED substrate 9) arranged inside is provided, and the outer side surface portion (outer side surface portion 3a) and the inner side of the front door 105 are provided. A plurality of visual recognition portions 7 capable of visually recognizing the light emitted from the light emitting body (decorative lamp 120w) mounted on the substrate are formed only on one of the side surface portions (inner side surface portions 3b) of the above. A partition 25 is formed between the sevens, and at least a part of the substrate may be arranged in a portion hidden by the partition 25 when facing the partition 25.
For example, an example in which the outer side is configured as shown in FIG. 37 and the inner side is different from FIG. 37, and an example in which the inner side is configured as shown in FIG. 39 and the outer side is different from FIG. 39. Can be considered.

More specifically, in the ball game machine 100, at least a part of the peripheral portion that is openably and closably attached to the front frame 102 and extends vertically is a protruding portion that projects toward the player. A front door 105 is provided, and a substrate (LED substrate 9) on which a light emitting body (decorative lamp 120w) is placed is arranged inside the protruding portion, and a side surface portion (outer side surface portion 3a) on the outer side of the protruding portion is provided. On only one of the inner side surface portion (inner side surface portion 3b), a plurality of visible portions 7 capable of visually recognizing the light emission of the light emitting body are formed with the partition portion 25 interposed therebetween, and face the partition portion 25. At least a part of the substrate may be arranged in a portion hidden by the dividing portion 25.

For example, if the viewing portion 7 and the dividing portion 25 are provided on the inner side surface portion 3b and the LED substrate 9 is arranged so as to be hidden by the dividing portion 25, the LED substrate 9 is less likely to be visually recognized by the player. , The design is not deteriorated due to the visible substrate. The outer side surface portion 3a is provided with the visibility portion 7 and the partition portion 25, and by not arranging the LED substrate 9 on the partition portion 25, the visibility of the substrate is ensured by the operator and it is easy to find a defect. It is said that.

<3-52: Type C2>
An example in which the visual recognition unit 7 has different modes on the outside and the inside will be described.
A front door 105 that is openably attached to the front frame 102 and has a substrate (LED substrate 9) arranged inside is provided, and the outer side surface portion (outer side surface portion 3a) and the inner side of the front door 105 are provided. A plurality of visual recognition portions 7 capable of visually recognizing the light emitted from the light emitting body (decorative lamp 120w) mounted on the substrate are formed separately on only one of the side surface portions (inner side surface portions 3b). The portion between the viewing portions 7 may be a partition portion 25, and the light emitting body may not be placed on the portion of the substrate that cannot be visually recognized by the partition portion 25.
For example, an example in which the outer side is configured as shown in FIG. 37 and the inner side is different from FIG. 37, and an example in which the inner side is configured as shown in FIG. 39 and the outer side is different from FIG. 39. Can be considered.

More specifically, in the ball game machine 100, at least a part of the peripheral portion that is openably and closably attached to the front frame 102 and extends vertically is a protruding portion that projects toward the player. A front door 105 is provided, and a substrate (LED substrate 9) on which a light emitting body (decorative lamp 120w) is placed is arranged inside the protruding portion, and a side surface portion (outer side surface portion 3a) on the outer side of the protruding portion is provided. A plurality of visual recognition portions 7 capable of visually recognizing the light emission of the light emitting body are formed on only one of the inner side surface portions (inner side surface portions 3b) with the partition portion 25 interposed therebetween, and the partition portions 25 make it invisible. The light emitter may not be placed on the portion of the substrate.

For example, by arranging the LED 9a in a portion of the LED substrate 9 that is difficult to see (or a portion that cannot be seen) by the dividing portion 25 provided on the inner side surface portion 3b, the LED 9a is made difficult for the player to see. , It is possible to produce light emission without disturbing the design. Further, since the light emitted from the LED 9a is prevented from directly reaching the eyes of the player, it also protects the eyes of the player.
On the other hand, the LED 9a is visually recognized from the outside by not arranging the LED 9a in a portion of the LED substrate 9 that is difficult to see (or is invisible) by the partition portion 25 provided on the outer side surface portion 3a. This facilitates the process and contributes to the early detection of defects in the LED 9a. Further, since the light emitted from the LED 9a is directly emitted to the outside of the game machine via the visual recognition unit 7, a high effect can be obtained, and strong light can be emitted to the outside of the game machine with a small number of LEDs 9a. Therefore, it can contribute to the reduction of power consumption.

An example in which the visual recognition unit 7 has different modes on the outside and the inside will be described.
A front door 105 that is openably attached to the front frame 102 and has a substrate (LED substrate 9) arranged inside is provided, and the outer side surface portion (outer side surface portion 3a) and the inner side of the front door 105 are provided. A plurality of visible parts 7 capable of visually recognizing the light emitted from the light emitting body (decorative lamp 120w) mounted on the substrate are formed separately on only one of the side surface portions (inner side surface portions 3b). A portion between at least two visible portions 7 may be a partition portion 25, and the substrate may not be arranged in a portion that cannot be visually recognized by the partition portion 25.
For example, an example in which the outer side is configured as shown in FIG. 38 and the inner side is different from FIG. 38, and an example in which the inner side is configured as shown in FIG. 40 and the outer side is different from FIG. 40. Can be considered.

More specifically, in the ball game machine 100, at least a part of the peripheral portion that is openably and closably attached to the front frame 102 and extends vertically is a protruding portion that projects toward the player. A front door 105 is provided, and a substrate (LED substrate 9) on which a light emitting body (decorative lamp 120w) is placed is arranged inside the protruding portion, and a side surface portion (outer side surface portion 3a) on the outer side of the protruding portion is provided. A plurality of visual recognition portions 7 capable of visually recognizing the light emission of the light emitting body are formed on only one of the inner side surface portions (inner side surface portions 3b) with the partition portion 25 interposed therebetween, and the partition portions 25 make it invisible. The light emitter may not be placed on the portion of the substrate.

For example, since it is difficult for the player to visually recognize the LED substrate 9 from the visual recognition portion 7 provided on the outer side surface portion 3a, even if the LED substrate 9 arranged inside can be visually recognized from the visual recognition portion 7, the player can see the LED substrate 9. It does not interfere with the design. Therefore, the defect of the LED 9a can be found by arranging the LED 9a on the LED substrate 9 at a position easily visible from the visual recognition portion 7 by preventing the LED substrate 9 from being arranged in a place that is difficult to see by the dividing portion 25. Can be facilitated.
On the other hand, if the LED 9a arranged on the LED substrate 9 can be visually recognized from the visual recognition portion 7 provided on the inner side surface portion 3b, the design may be hindered. In such a case, it is preferable to arrange the LED substrate 9 in a manner different from that on the outer side.

<3-87: Modification example>
Here, a modification other than the above will be described.
In each of the above-mentioned examples, an example is described in which the uneven shape for light diffusion provided on the inner cover 12 provided inside the right side portion 3 is configured such that the uneven peaks (valleys) extend in the vertical direction. However, the peaks (valleys) may be configured to extend in the horizontal direction (see FIG. 48).

Similarly, the uneven shape for light diffusion provided on the inner surface of the decorative cover 5 has been described as an example in which the uneven peaks (valleys) are configured to extend in the horizontal direction, but the peaks (valleys) are in the vertical direction. It may be configured to extend (see FIG. 49).
Since the extending direction of the uneven shape provided on the inner cover 12 and the extending direction of the uneven shape formed on the decorative cover 5 are different directions, the light emitted from the LED 9a provided inside the right side portion 3 is emitted. It is diffused in multiple directions, and the effect of light emission can be enhanced.

This effect can be obtained even in a configuration in which the extending direction of the uneven shape formed on the inner cover 12 is the vertical direction and the extending direction of the uneven shape formed on the decorative cover 5 is the horizontal direction as described above. Can be done.
Further, not only the combination of the horizontal direction and the vertical direction but also other directions (oblique 45 °, etc.) may be used.

The LED substrate 9 provided inside the right side portion 3 is arranged so as to face the front-rear direction in each of the above-described examples, but it may be arranged so as to face the left-right direction. In that case, for example, two LED substrates 9 and 9 facing in the left-right direction may be arranged facing each other (see FIG. 50).
When the LEDs 9a are arranged on the surface opposite to the opposite surface of each LED substrate 9, the LEDs arranged on the right side (outer side) from the visual recognition portion 7 provided on the outer side surface portion 3a. It is possible to confirm the light emission from the substrate 9, and it is possible to confirm the light emission from the LED substrate 9 arranged on the left side (inner side) from the visual recognition unit 7 provided on the inner side surface portion 3b.
Therefore, since the light emission from the LEDs 9a mounted on the different LED substrates 9 can be confirmed by the visual recognition unit 7, it is possible to clearly identify which LED 9a has a problem. That is, maintainability can be improved.

In each structural example described in the above type D, it is conceivable that the upper surface portion 1a and the lower surface portion 1b of the upper side portion 1 are replaced. Specifically, the visual recognition portion 7 may be provided on the lower surface portion 1b of the upper side portion 1 instead of being provided on the upper surface portion 1a of the upper side portion 1. When the viewing unit 7 functions as a light transmitting unit 6 that effectively delivers the effect light from the LED 9a to the player, the effect can be enhanced by providing the viewing unit 7 on the lower surface portion 1b. Is.

In each of the above-mentioned main examples, when a plurality of visual recognition portions 7 are provided on the inner side (or outer side), an example in which they are provided apart in the vertical direction has been described, but as shown in FIG. 30, front and rear It may be provided apart in the direction. In FIG. 30, two viewing portions 7 and 7 are provided on the outer side surface portion 3a separated from each other in the front-rear direction.
Such an embodiment can be applied as long as there is no contradiction in each of the other examples.
Further, in FIG. 30, although the decorative cover 5 is provided with two viewing portions 7 separated from each other in the front-rear direction, the decorative cover 5 is provided with one viewing portion 7 and the first protruding plate 17b of the door base 17 is provided. The two viewing units 7 and 7 may be positioned apart from each other in the front-rear direction by providing one viewing unit 7 in the door.

Although the example in which the flat surface portion 10 facing the left-right direction is formed on the outer side surface portion 3a and the inner side surface portion 3b, the surface may not be completely facing the left-right direction. That is, it may be a flat surface portion 10 that faces substantially the left-right direction.

It should be noted that the various examples described above can be combined in any way except when the combination is not rational. By various combinations, each effect can be obtained in a complex manner.
