Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a pachinko machine equipped with a winning device having a winning section and a light-emitting display section on the front side of a mounting board that is attached to the surface of a game board.

(Prior art and its problems) Conventionally, the winning device of this type of pachinko machine has a mounting board for the winning device attached to the surface of the game board, as shown in FIG. 4 of JP-A No. 58-103479. A light emitter member in which a light emitting source and a light emitting source board are housed is formed on the front side of the player, and a light emitting source such as a lamp and a light emitting source board are housed from the front side (player side) of this light emitter member. I was getting used to it.

However, with this structure, once the winning device has been installed on the game board, if it becomes necessary to replace the light emitting source or its mounting board, the glass window covering the surface of the game board must be opened and the winning device The light emitting source must be replaced after opening the lid on the front side of the light emitting device member using a tool such as a screwdriver.

Moreover, after replacement, it is necessary to close the lid of the light emitting device member again using a screwdriver or close the glass window.

Moreover, when replacing the light emitting source board, in addition to the above-mentioned work procedure, the even more troublesome work of processing the lead wires becomes necessary.

This is because, when the light emitting board is removed, the lead wires extending from the light emitting source board to the mounting board of the winning device to the back side of the game board must be pulled out together with the light emitting board.

When a new light emitting source board is to be attached, the lead wires of the light emitting source board must be inserted into the back side of the game board through the mounting board of the winning device on the back side of the light emitting device member.

When removing or inserting a lead wire, it is of course necessary to disconnect or connect the end of the lead wire to a predetermined member on the back side of the game board.

Not only the light emitting source but also the light emitting source board often malfunctions. Not only is repair work extremely troublesome for pachinko parlors, but having to stop the pachinko machines for long periods of time during business hours is also harmful to the pachinko parlors and customers playing on the machines. However, it has become an extremely inconvenient problem.

That is, the complexity of such repair/replacement work leads to a decrease in the operating rate of the pachinko machine when the pachinko parlor is in business.

On the other hand, for the player, for example, in the case of a recently popular large-scale winning device that generates a large amount of winning balls in a short period of time when a specific prize pattern occurs, a lamp is turned on or Since the flashing lights are used to add excitement to the game, if a lamp or the like breaks during such a prize event and the player is forced to wait for a long time, dissatisfaction will increase and the player's desire to play will be significantly diminished.

The present invention aims to solve this problem.

(Means for Solving Problems) The present invention provides a pachinko machine equipped with a winning device having a winning section and a light-emitting display section on the front side of a mounting board that is attached to the surface of the game board. The light-emitting display section includes a light-emitting source, a light-emitting source board to which the light-emitting source is attached, and a light-emitting device member containing at least the light-emitting source, and the light-emitting source is attached to the mounting board from the back side of the game board. A board opening protruding from the front side of the board is provided, and the light emitting source board is removably attached to the back side of the mounting board from the back side of the game board, and the light emitting source of the mounting board is connected to the gaming board through the board opening. The structure is such that it is inserted from the back side of the board into the light emitting device member on the front side of the mounting board.
