Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a ball handle for a pachinko machine in which a ball switch motor is turned on and off by a touch switch.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, a ball handle for a pachinko machine that uses a touch switch to turn the ball motor on and off, when the player touches the touch detection plate provided on the grip, the touch switch circuit attached to the pachinko machine body is used by the player. It detects the contact and drives the ball motor, and if the player grips the grip and touches the touch detection plate and rotates the ball force adjustment lever, The motor of this will be started and will carry out a ball.

However, by inserting a coin between the ball force adjusting lever of the ball handle and the base part or the grip part to lock the ball force and playing a game, or for the grip part attached to the base part for long-term durability. The fixing becomes loose, the contact of the connecting projection that electrically connects the touch detection plate of the gripping part and the touch signal input terminal of the base part becomes unstable, and the ball motor does not start or is intermittent. There was a problem that it could not be played because it was driven mechanically.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The problem to be solved is that even if the holding part and the base part are loosely fixed due to illegal games and long-term durability, the electrical connection does not become unstable and the touch signal is reliably transmitted to the touch switch circuit. Stable operation of the ball motor.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention relates to a ball handle for a pachinko machine, in which a grip provided with a touch detection plate and a ball force adjusting lever are attached to the base, and between the touch detection plate of the grip and the touch signal input terminal of the base. Is electrically connected by a conductive spring.

【Example】

 The present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. Reference numeral 1 is a base portion of a ball handle attached to a ball force adjusting portion of a pachinko machine (not shown). The base portion 1 connects a connecting plug 3 provided on a mounting tube portion 2 to the ball force adjusting portion. It is designed to be electrically connected via a touch switch circuit to a ball motor (not shown) attached to the pachinko machine by inserting it into the socket for the game. Reference numeral 4 denotes a touch signal input terminal provided in the enlarged cylindrical portion 5 of the base portion 1, and the touch signal input terminal 4 is connected to the connection plug 3 by wiring.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a ball force adjusting lever that is rotatably attached to the base unit 1. A rotating shaft 7 of the ball force adjusting lever 6 is linked to a spring adjusting mechanism of the ball force adjusting unit to make a ball ball. It is designed to adjust force. Reference numeral 8 is a gripping part attached to the base part 1 so as to sandwich the elastic force adjusting lever 6, and a touch detecting plate 10 having a contact sensing part 9 exposed on the surface thereof is attached to the gripping part 8. . Reference numeral 11 denotes a connecting protrusion that extends from the touch detection plate 10. The connection protrusion 11 is screwed to the touch signal input terminal 4 of the base unit 1 to connect the touch detection plate 10 and the touch signal input terminal 4 to each other. It is electrically connected.

Reference numeral 12 denotes a conductive spring, and the conductive spring 12 has an end portion abutted on the touch detection plate 10 and the touch signal input terminal 4 to electrically connect the touch detection plate 10 and the touch signal input terminal 4 to each other. Connected to each other. Reference numeral 13 is a metal plate that is attached to the touch detection plate 10 that is made of synthetic resin with conductive plating, if necessary. The metal plate 13 enhances the detection accuracy of the touch detection plate 10 and a touch signal input terminal. 4 and the touch detection plate 10 are electrically connected.

[0009]

[Action]

 With such a structure, when the base part 1 is attached to the elastic force adjusting mechanism of the pachinko machine, the connection socket of the elastic force adjusting mechanism and the connecting plug 3 of the base part 1 are connected and gripped. The touch detection plate 10 of the part 8 and a touch switch circuit (not shown) of the pachinko machine are electrically connected, and the rotary shaft 7 of the elastic force adjusting lever 6 is connected to the spring adjusting mechanism of the elastic force adjusting part. Becomes As described above, when the device of the present invention is assembled to the pachinko machine, if the player grips the grip portion 8 and touches the touch detection plate 10, the touch detection plate 10 and the touch signal input terminal 4 are electrically connected. The connected touch switch circuit detects that the player has entered a game operation.

When the player turns the ball force adjusting lever 6, the motor of the pachinko machine is driven to start the ball, as in the conventional case. And the ball force adjusting lever 6 or between the grip part 8 and the ball force adjusting lever 6 to play a game or loosen the base part 1 and the grip part 8 due to long-term durability. Although the electrical connection between the connection protrusion 11 of the touch detection plate 10 and the touch signal input terminal 4 of the base part 1 becomes unstable, the connection between the touch detection plate 10 and the touch signal input terminal 4 of the base part 1 becomes conductive. Since the electric spring 12 electrically connects the touch detection plate 10 and the touch signal input terminal 4 even if the base portion 1 and the grip portion 8 rattle, the elastic force of the conductive spring 12 ensures reliable contact. Therefore, the touch signal is It is possible to play a pachinko game comfortably without being input to the circuit properly and the motor not starting or being driven intermittently.

[0011]

[Effect of device]

 As is apparent from the above description, the present invention electrically connects the touch signal input terminal of the base portion and the touch detection plate of the grip portion with the conductive spring, so that the base portion and the grip portion can be separated from each other due to long-term durability or incorrect game. Even if there is rattling, the touch signal is reliably transmitted to the touch switch circuit, the drive of the ball motor does not become unstable, and accurate ball operation is always performed, making for a comfortable pachinko game. It is something that you can enjoy, and it is of great practical value as a ball handle for a pachinko machine that solves the conventional problems.
