Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a safe ball socket device for a pachinko machine, which has an opening/closing piece that can be freely erected and tilted pivoted on the front surface of a mounting plate.

[Prior art] Conventional safe ball receivers are, for example,
As disclosed in Publication No. 73388, a pair of opening/closing pieces that can be freely raised and tilted are pivotally supported on the front surface of the mounting plate, and a guide is provided on the rear surface of the mounting plate with an opening/closing means for controlling the opening/closing operation of the opening/closing pieces. The box is integrated, and a window hole is made in the mounting plate as appropriate, a translucent synthetic resin plate is fitted into the hole, and lamp light is irradiated from the rear of the window hole to enhance the decorative effect. This is what I did.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] The above conventional techniques have the following problems.

(a) Since the mounting plate and the guide box are integrally molded, each time the shape of the mounting plate is changed, it is necessary to create a mold that incorporates the guide box. but,
Originally, design changes are made to the front side of the mounting plate, and changes to the guide box, opening/closing control means, etc. on the rear side are often not required. Even in such a case, since the guide box is integrated with the mounting plate, it is wasteful to mold a mold including the guide box.

(b) Once a manufactured safe ball socket is canceled, even the guide box integrated with the mounting plate becomes unusable, and the opening/closing control means attached to the guide box may be removed and reused. It also requires a lot of effort.

[Means for Solving the Problems] Therefore, in the present invention, the mounting plate 1 is divided into an inner member 1a having translucency and an outer member 1b that fits on the outer periphery of the inner member 1a, and this inner Material 1
The above-mentioned problems are solved by making the inner member 1a and the outer member 1b detachable from each other, and by integrally molding the guide box 6 on the rear surface of the inner member 1a.

[Function] Since the mounting plate 1 is divided into two parts, changes in the shape of the mounting plate 1 can be handled by changing only the external member 1b.

[Example] An example of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, 1 is a mounting plate with a vertically elongated ball inlet 2 formed in the center, 3, 3 is a pair of opening/closing pieces supported on both sides of the front side of the ball inlet 2 by shafts 4, 4 for free standing and tilting; 5 is a chatter mounted on the mounting plate 1 covering the lower part of the opening/closing pieces 3, 3, and 6 is the ball inlet 2.
This is an information box installed at the rear of the car. Inside the guide box 6, there is an opening/closing control means 7 for controlling opening/closing of the opening/closing pieces 3, 3.
As is well known, a see-saw ball guide plate 7a is pivotally supported by a horizontal shaft 8, and its weighted tip intervenes below the shafts 4, 4 of the opening/closing pieces 3, 3, as shown by the solid line in FIG. At the same time, the weight of the ball inserted between the opening/closing pieces 3, 3 causes the tip to flip up as shown by the chain line in the figure, thereby tilting the opening/closing pieces 3, 3. Note that the opening/closing control means 7 is not limited to one using the above-mentioned ball conductive plate 7a,
For example, it is of course possible to use a rotating body as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application No. 60-163988.

Thus, the mounting plate 1 is divided into an inner member 1a and an outer member 1b. The internal material 1a is
It is made of transparent synthetic resin, and has a guide box 6 integrally molded on the rear side, lamp support tubes 9, 9, and lamp 1.
0, 10, . . . so that the wiring board 11 supporting the bulbs 0, 10, .

On the other hand, the outer member 1b has a through hole 12 into which the inner member 1a can be fitted, and game board mounting holes 13, 1 are formed on the peripheral edge of the outer member 1b.
3..., and the entire structure is made of non-transparent synthetic resin.

The inner member 1a and the outer member 1b are coupled as follows. That is, the peripheral step part 14 of the inner member 1a is engaged with the front side step part 12a on the upper edge of the through hole 12 of the outer member 1b, and the back side step part 12b on both side edges and the lower edge, and further, the transparent part 12a of the outer member 1b is engaged. The upward claw pieces 15, 15 provided on both sides of the lower edge of the hole 12 and protruding toward the rear surface side of the mounting plate 1 are engaged with the receiving rod 16 provided protruding from the lower back surface side of the internal member 1a. are removably connected. In actual attachment and detachment, first engage the upper end of the inner member 1a with the front side stepped portion 12a of the outer member 1b from the back side of the outer member 1b, and then press the lower part of the inner member 1a against the outer member 1b. The portion of the outer member 1b below the upward claw piece 15 is deformed due to the elasticity of the synthetic resin (dashed line in Figure 4), and the upward claw piece 1
5 and the holder 1b of the internal member 1a are engaged and fixed. On the other hand, when separating, pull the lower side of the outer member 1b forward and curve it so that the upward claw piece 1
5 and the rod 16 are disengaged.

In addition, the chucker 5 is attached by using elastic claw pieces 17, 17 formed on both sides of the chucker 5 and engagement holes 18, 1 formed on both sides of the ball entrance 2 of the inner member 1a.
8, and is removable like the connection between the inner member 1a and the outer member 1b of the mounting plate 1. Note that the lower part of the chatter 5 is an internal member 1a.
Since it extends from the front of the outer material 1b, the outer material 1b
This serves to prevent deformation of the lower side of the rod, and thus functions as a locking member for fixing the engagement between the upward claw piece 15 and the receiving rod 16.

[Effects of the invention] As explained above, according to the invention, (a) the mounting plate 1 can be fixed by changing the external member 1b;
Since the shape of the outer member 1b can be freely changed, it is sufficient to mold only the outer material 1b, and therefore the cost of the mold can be reduced.

(b) Since the inner member 1a can be easily removed from the completed safe ball socket, damage to the finished product can be minimized.

(c) Several types of external materials 1b and an appropriate number of internal materials 1
By storing a, it becomes possible to immediately respond to customer demands even though the storage space is small.

(d) Since the guide box 6 is integrated with the translucent inner material 1a, the guide box 6 can also be made transparent, and therefore the lamp light illuminates the inside of the guide box 6, enhancing the decorative effect. be able to.

It has many practical effects.
