Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field 1] The present invention cleans pachinko balls and abrasive material, metal and abrasive material, or pachinko balls, metal and abrasive material by mixing and agitating them and lifting them while polishing them. The present invention relates to a polishing device for pachinko machines, etc.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, in a pachinko island or the like, which is equipped with a polishing pipe capable of polishing balls, etc., by lifting the balls, etc. and small particle-shaped abrasive material supplied to the F section using a spiral body, For example, as seen in Japanese Patent Publication No. 55-454.6, a polishing pipe is erected in a J-shape or L-shape when viewed from the side, and the polishing material is removed from the top discharge side of the polishing pipe. The upper end of the polishing pipe was vertical, and a motor was attached to the tip of the polishing pipe, making it tall and protruding considerably upwards from the island.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, with such a structure, it is necessary to drive the spiral body from the upper end of the standing polishing pipe, and to direct the balls, etc. from the sorting device to each machine on the island. Since it has to be drained out, it has to be installed far above the island, causing problems that are unimpressive from both a stability and aesthetic point of view. In a store that is attached to a store, it is necessary to install a ball polishing device and a medal polishing device on each island, which requires space and creates a complicated structure.As a result, it is necessary to reduce the number of game machines installed. The problem was that it did not work.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention solves such problems and can be carried out suitably. Therefore, the present invention is designed to provide a polishing pipe with an approximately rounded shape in side view where both the upper and lower corners are rounded. The polishing pipe is formed in a letter shape, and a motor for driving the spiral body is connected horizontally to the upper tip side of the polishing pipe, which is oriented laterally, and an upper tank is connected to the lower side of the upper tip side. A filter capable of leaking the abrasive material is disposed on the lower surface side in the lateral direction from the rounded portion of the side corner portion.

In addition, the polishing pipe is made into a Z-shape when viewed from the side, and beads, medals, and abrasive material can be mixed and supplied from the bottom of the polishing pipe, and the filter on the bottom surface of the top side of the polishing pipe is used in the first stage. The beads and abrasive material leak out, and the medals are sent to the medal tank.Then, in the second stage, only the beads and abrasive material leak out.Below the upper filter, the abrasive material leaks out and the medals are sent to the medal tank. It is equipped with a transport gutter that can transport the balls and medals to the tank side, and is configured so that the balls and medals can be polished at the same time and separated at the top.

[Function] Therefore, it is possible to make the polishing device so high above the island that it does not become too large, and it is possible to create a funbakuto structure so that the polishing device does not become too large above the island.
The balls and the abrasive material are polished while being lifted up by the spiral body, and the balls can be efficiently supplied to the upper tank while only the abrasive material is removed by the filter above.

In addition, on the island where there is a pachinko island and a slot game machine island, balls, medals, and abrasive material are mixed and polished while being lifted up by a spiral body. The medals are sent to the upper medal tank by leaking through the filter, and the balls and abrasive material leaked from the first filter are allowed to leak through the second filter, and the medals are sent to the ball tank. Become.

[Example] Next, the embodiment shown in the drawings will be described.

Fig. 1 shows a polishing device installed on a pachinko island, and a polishing pipe 2 installed inside the island is formed into a substantially U-shape when viewed from the side with both upper and lower corners 2a and 2b rounded, and communicates with a groove 8, etc. The lower part of the polishing pipe 2, which has an inlet 9 through which beads and abrasive materials can be received, is located on the floor 10, and the upper part of the polishing pipe 2 is located slightly above the upper part 11 of the island. A motor 3 capable of driving the helical body 1 charged inside the entire polishing pipe 2 is installed sideways on the tip side of the upper part of the polishing pipe 2, which faces horizontally. The upper tank 4 and the overflow pipe 12 are connected to each other at the lower part of the tip side, and the upper tank 4
A slanted gutter 13 for supplying beads extends from the lower part of the polishing pipe 2, and a filter 5 is provided on the lower surface of the polishing pipe 2 from the rounded part of the upper corner 2a in the lateral direction to allow the abrasive to leak out. At the same time, a return pipe 5 is vertically installed from the hopper 14 below to the introduction port 9 side.

Further, the polishing pipe 2 may be formed in a substantially Z-shape when viewed from the side, with both upper and lower corners being rounded, and configured in the same manner as in the embodiment described above.

Therefore, the balls can be polished while lifting the balls and the abrasive material by the spiral body 1 driven by the motor 3, and the abrasive material leaks out from the upper filter 5 and is removed, leaving only the balls. This means that the upper tank 4 can be filled with balls, unlike conventional tanks, and the overflow level is also kept at the same level, so that the upper tank 4 can be completely filled with balls. This means that overflow can be automatically and forcibly applied.

FIG. 2 shows a polishing device installed inside an island that has a pachinko island and a slot game machine island, and is constructed almost the same as the previous embodiment as indicated by the same reference numerals, but the inlet 9 is We are also able to supply Medal Conhair 16J and Re(7) medals. The filter 5 is designed to allow only beads and abrasive material to leak out, and the upper tank 4 is used as a tank for only medals.From the medal supply machine 17 at the bottom of the upper tank 4, each metal supply machine 18 is connected on the way. A metal conveyor 19 for supplying the abrasive material is extended below the filter 5, and a conveying gutter 7 serving as a Tesclew conveyor is provided horizontally extending below the filter 5 and has a filter 20 for leaking the abrasive material. A screw driving motor 21 is connected horizontally to the terminal end of the conveying gutter 7, and a ball tank 6 and a ball overflow pipe 22 are connected to each other below the terminal end.

Therefore, the balls and medals can be polished simultaneously while the balls, medals, and abrasive material are lifted up by the spiral body 1 driven by the motor 3. The beads and abrasive material are leaked from the filter 5, and the medals are sent to the upper tank 4, and the balls and abrasive material that have fallen into the conveyance gutter 7 are removed by the filter 20, and the balls are removed. This means that the balls can be fed from the conveying gutter 7 to the ball tank 6.

Furthermore, when the level of the medals in the slot man/medal rental machine drops and the level sensor is activated, the medal supply machine attached to the medal supply machine is activated, the medal supply machine 17 is activated, and the metal in the tank is activated. An appropriate amount of medals are fed onto the supply metal container hair 19, and since the metal container hair 19 is already in operation at that time, the supplied medals are carried and replenished from the part of the medal supply machine 18 which is in operation.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, the present invention can be installed on a pachinko island, a slot game machine island, or an island where a pachinko island and a slot game machine island are installed. It is possible to effectively install a small and short polishing device with a compact structure without making it large and space-consuming. Moreover, the polishing can be done by the action of the filter and spiral body installed on the bottom surface of the top of the polishing pipe. It is possible to efficiently remove materials and feed balls and metals effectively, and the workability is improved, so it has the advantage of being suitable for use as a polishing device that can be conveniently installed within an island.
