Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an indicator lamp for pachinko machines that is attached to the upper curtain plate of a pachinko machine installation island and corresponds to each pachinko machine.

[Prior Art] An indicator lamp for a pachinko machine is known in which a light source is disposed in the interior space of a box-shaped main body and a transparent cover is provided on the front surface. By the way, in the past, this type of indicator lamp was used to notify hall employees by turning on the light source when a problem occurred with a pachinko machine, but recently, the purpose of this type of indicator lamp was to notify the pachinko machine's gaming status. When a player wins a jackpot that is advantageous to the player, the light source of the indicator lamp is flashed, which is often used to increase the desire of surrounding players to play. Therefore, there is currently a demand for indicator lamps with high optical decorative effects.

[Problem that the invention aims to solve] However, since conventional indicator lamps simply have a light source located inside the box-shaped body, even when the light source is turned on, the light is only slightly emitted from the transparent cover. It leaks to the outside and is difficult to see from the surrounding area.
It has not yet been possible to obtain a light decoration effect that makes a strong impression on players.

The present invention was devised in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to provide an indicator lamp for a pachinko machine that has a simple structure and a unique light decoration effect.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object, in the indicator lamp for a pachinko machine according to the present invention, a plurality of transparent covers are provided in a protruding manner at the front opening of the box-shaped main body, and the internal space is A light source is disposed in the light source, a partition wall is provided between the transparent covers and faces the light source, and a reflective surface is formed on the surface of the partition wall. Furthermore, it is more effective to form the reflective surface into a polygonal polyhedral shape.

[Function] According to the indicator lamp for a pachinko machine of the present invention configured as described above, by lighting the light source disposed inside the box-shaped main body, the light source is reflected on the reflective surface of the partition wall. As a result, a unique light decoration effect is produced, similar to the presence of multiple light sources. Furthermore, the light from the light source is diffused in a planar manner by the reflective surface of the partition wall and leaks out from the entire translucent cover, so the illumination brightness is significantly increased and the light shines brightly, making it possible to see the lighting status of the light source from a distance. It can be clearly seen.

Furthermore, by forming the reflective surfaces into a polygonal polyhedral shape, the light sources are reflected on each surface, giving the impression that there are many more light sources, resulting in a very novel light decoration effect.

[Example] An example of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the figure, 1 is a box-shaped main body, 2 is a transparent cover, and 3 is a light source for illumination, such as a miniature light bulb.

The box-shaped main body 1 includes a mounting plate 1a and a side frame member 1.
The mounting plate 1a has an open front surface and a horizontally elongated elliptical shape, and has a plurality of cylindrical parts 4 for holding light sources on the bottom surface of the mounting base plate 1a, and a through hole in the center for pulling out wiring cords. 5 is set. A box-shaped part 6 is integrally formed in the lower part of the side frame member 1b, and a machine number display part 7 is provided on the surface of the box-shaped part 6, and a push button 8 for turning on the light source is protruded.
Further, a partition wall 9 projecting forward is integrally provided on the front surface of the opening of the side frame member 1b. This partition wall 9 is
The sides have a semicircular shape, and the front opening of the box-like body 1 is provided at two locations so as to horizontally divide the opening into thirds, and the surface is mirror-finished with chrome plating or the like to create a smooth reflective surface. 9a is formed.

The light-transmitting cover 2 is formed of a synthetic resin having light-transmitting properties and suitably colored in a curved shape along the partition wall 9, and has locking pieces 10 formed on the upper and lower edges thereof attached to the side frame member 1b. It is integrated with the box-shaped main body 1 by fitting into the engaging portion 11 of the box-shaped main body 1. The light source 3 is attached by being inserted into a cylindrical portion 4 for holding the light source, and the protrusion length of the cylindrical portion 4 is selected so that the light source 3 is located opposite the reflective surface 9a of the partition wall 9. Further, both end portions of the side frame member 1b are formed low in a stepped manner so that the transparent cover 2 can be easily seen from the side.

The display lamp having such a configuration is installed on the upper curtain plate 1 of the pachinko machine installation island 12 as shown in FIG.
3 are attached to each pachinko machine 14 in correspondence with each other. As the light source 3 is turned on, the light source 3 is reflected on the reflective surface 9a of the partition wall 9, creating an appearance as if there are many light sources, creating a novel light decoration effect that has never existed before. be done. In addition, the light from the light source 3 is diffused in a planar manner by the reflective surface 9a of the partition wall 9 and leaks out from the transparent cover 2, so the brightness is further increased and the transparent cover part shines and can be seen from a distance. The lighting state of the light source 3 can be clearly seen.

Incidentally, FIG. 5 shows another embodiment in which the reflective surface 9a of the partition wall 9 is formed into a polygonal polygonal shape. By forming the reflective surface 9a of the partition wall 9 into a polygonal polyhedron in this way, the light sources 3 are reflected on each surface, giving the impression that more light sources 3 are present, which is unique. A light decoration effect is exhibited.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide an indicator lamp for a pachinko machine that has a simple structure and has a novel and unique light decoration effect that has never been seen before.
