On the other hand, according to the illustrated embodiment, the key receiving member 68 separately provided on the outer frame 4 is a member having a substantially L-shaped cross section obtained by bending a metal plate, and the one side fixing portion 69 is provided on the outer frame 4. When fixed to the inner surface of the right vertical frame member 27d with a screw or the like, the upright portion 70 on the other side protrudes inside the outer frame 4, and when the front frame 3 is closed, the tip of the upright portion 70 is attached to the front frame 3.
The rear side of the mechanical frame 15 attached to the rear side of the is exposed.

By the way, the size of the pachinko machine 1 is different between the Kanto region and the Kansai region, and the width of the pachinko machine 1 in the Kansai region is about 10 mm larger. Therefore, the outer frame 4 and the front frame 3 are divided into 2 regions
Although there are types, standardization is made by sharing the main members such as the game board 14, the metal frame 6, the glass frame 8, the locking device 16, and the decorative member 25. And, in terms of appearance, the game board 14 is a pachinko machine 1
Must be arranged in the center of the game machine, and the locking device 16 must be arranged at a certain distance from the side edge of the game board 14. Therefore, when the outer frame 4 and the front frame 3 that match the dimensions of the pachinko machine in each region are combined, the right vertical frame member 27 of the outer frame 4 is
The distance between the inner surface of d and the key piece 39 of the locking device 16 is different between the outer frame 4 for the Kanto region (hereinafter simply referred to as the Kanto frame) and the outer frame 4 for the Kansai region (hereinafter simply referred to as the Kansai frame). Because it comes
In order to make the key receiving members 68 fixed to the inner surface of the right vertical frame member 27d of the outer frame 4 correspond to the respective outer frames 4, it is necessary to prepare two kinds of key receiving members 68 in which the standing portions 70 have different lengths. I don't. At present, the key receiving member 68 has not been standardized.

However, if the key receiving member 68 is mistakenly attached in the automatic assembly line of the pachinko machine 1, the front frame 3 and the outer frame 4 cannot be engaged with each other, and the pachinko machine 1 is damaged at extreme times. Therefore, in this embodiment, the key receiving member 68 can be commonly applied to both Kanto and Kansai frames. That is, in this embodiment, when the wide Kansai frame has standard dimensions, the key receiving member 68 corresponding to the Kansai frame is a single standard member, and when the key receiving member 68 is used for the narrow Kanto frame, , A notch groove 71 is provided which is adapted to the width difference between the Kanto frame and the Kansai frame so that the inner space of the right vertical frame member 27d is equal to the relative distance between the outer frame 4 and the front frame 3 in the Kansai frame. Key receiving member in 71
The fastening portions 69 of 68 are fastened so that the relative position to the key piece 39 is the same as the Kansai frame. Also, the upright portion of the key receiving member 68.
The tip of 70 is configured to face the back surface of the mechanism frame 15 when the front frame 3 is closed. In this way, when the tip portion 72 of the standing portion 70 faces the back surface of the mechanism frame 15, the player pulls the front frame 3 toward you to create a gap between the outer frame 4 and the front frame 3, and this gap is formed. Even if you try to commit fraudulent activity,
Since the tip portion 72 of the 70 abuts on the back surface of the mechanism frame 15, the upright portion 70 of the key receiving member 68 has a double-supported shape, and the key receiving member 68 is a key piece.
Even if 39 is pulled, it does not bend. Therefore, the key receiving member
68 is deformed and a gap is opened between the outer frame 4 and the front frame 3, and a wire or the like is inserted through this gap to perform a fraudulent act, or the key receiving member 68 is deformed to engage with the key piece 39. The front frame 3 will not open due to misalignment. Therefore, the key piece 39 and the key receiving member 68 during transportation.
The front frame 3 is suddenly opened due to the disengagement with and the worker is not injured, and the pachinko machine 1 is not damaged, and it is also effective in preventing illegal games in pachinko parlors.

Then, using the key receiving member 68 configured as described above,
Not only can it be used in common for pachinko machines 1 in each region, it not only helps to reduce costs, but the narrow Kanto frame is provided with a notch groove 71, so at first glance it seems that the Kanto frame and Kansai frame Can be identified, and the outer frame 4 will not be mistaken.
Moreover, since the key receiving member 68 is common, it is not necessary to select the key receiving member 68 that fits the outer frame 4, and the work efficiency is significantly improved.

Next, locking and unlocking in the locking device 16 configured as described above will be described.

First, the locking of the front frame 3 will be described. Locking is extremely simple, and the front frame 3 is rotated about a hinge fulcrum to rotate the outer frame 4.
Just press. When the front frame 3 is pressed, the inclined edge 5 of the key piece 39 is attached to the upper edge 70 'of the upright portion 70 of the key receiving member 68 provided on the outer frame 4.
When 3 ″ comes into contact and the front frame 3 is pushed further, the upper edge 7 of the upright portion 70
Since the slanted edge 53 ″ slides on 0 ′, each key piece 39 slides upward against the biasing force of the spring 56, and when it exceeds the lower end of the slanted edge 53 ″, it rapidly returns by the biasing force of the spring 56. At the same time, the key receiving member 68 is fitted in the locking groove 50, and the rear edge 53 ′ of the protruding portion 53 of the key piece 39 is attached to the side surface of the rising portion 70 of the key receiving member 68.
Locks. In this state, even if the front frame 3 is pulled toward the front to open it, the key piece 39 is locked to the key receiving member 68, so that the front frame 3 cannot be opened and locking is performed.

Moreover, in this locked state, the upward movement preventing member 67 acts in the above-described embodiment. That is, in the above embodiment, even if the front frame 3 is lifted, the upper edge 67 'of the upper movement preventing member 67 is the lower edge of the key receiving member 68.
Since it is locked to 68 ', the upward movement of the front frame 3 is impossible. Therefore, the front frame 3 cannot be opened without a key, and the front frame 3 is lifted up due to vibration or the like during transportation or in the manufacturing process, and the key piece 39 and the key receiving member 68 are disengaged from each other and suddenly moved forward. The frame 3 never opens. In addition, it is not possible for the player to raise the front frame 3 to enlarge the gap for cheating.

On the other hand, when the key is used for opening, the key may be inserted into the key hole and rotated in one direction. That is, when the key is rotated, the rotation member 46 rotates in the same direction, and the first engagement pin 47a comes into contact with the lower edge of the engagement piece 49. Then, when the rotating member 46 is further rotated, the interlocking rod 48 rises against the spring 56, so that the key piece 39 also rises, and the rising portion of the key receiving member 68 extends from the locking groove 50.
70 comes off. If the front frame 3 is pulled to the front while the key piece 39 is disengaged from the key receiving member 68, the front frame 3 pivots on the hinge means 5 and is easily opened.

In this embodiment, since the upward movement preventing member 67 is provided as described above, the front frame 3 does not open even if the biasing force of the spring 56 is weakened. It can be turned.

The glass frame 8 is similar to the front frame 3, and when the key is inserted into the keyhole and rotated in the direction opposite to the front frame 3, the second engaging pin 47b of the rotating member 46 causes the lifting member 47 to move up and down. 57
Comes into contact with the engaging piece 61, and further rotation of the rotating member 46 causes the elevating member 57 to descend against the spring 65, and the elevating member 57
The glass frame opening piece 40 extended from 57 can press and move the glass frame locking rod 62 separately provided on the glass frame 8 downward to unlock the glass.

Although the present invention has been described with reference to the embodiments of the drawings, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and can be appropriately implemented unless the configuration described in the scope of claims for utility model is changed.

<Effects of the Invention> In summary, the present invention has the advantage that even if the outer frame and the front frame, which are narrower than the standard size, are combined, the relative distance at the engagement position between the key piece and the key receiving member is the standard size. A cutout groove is provided in the narrow outer frame so as to have an equal spacing in the combination with the front frame, and a single key receiving member is fixed in the cutout groove, and the tip of the key receiving member is attached to the front frame. Since it faces the mechanism frame attached to the rear side of the, it is possible to apply a single key receiving member to various outer frames, effective for cost reduction, and easy to manage parts. Become. Further, since the notch groove serves as a guide, it is possible to identify the outer frames having different dimensions at a glance, and the work efficiency can be improved without making a mistake in the assembly work. Furthermore, since the tip end of the key receiving member faces the mechanism frame attached to the front frame, the key receiving member can be supported at both ends, so the engagement strength with the key piece is increased, and the key receiving member is It is not deformed or disengaged, which helps prevent fraudulent activity and is effective in preventing backlash. And even if the outer frame is narrower than the standard size, the gap between the notch groove and the front frame is enlarged, so even if the same locking device is attached, the key piece will be the tip when opening and closing the front frame. Does not contact the outer frame.
