Description

Detailed Description of the Invention [Industrial applications]

The present invention relates to a pachinko machine, and more specifically, to a pachinko machine having a wiring processing structure of a cover member provided on the back side of the game board corresponding to the winning ball device formed on the game board.

[Prior art]

Conventionally, the game area on the front side of the game board is provided with a special game device such as a winning opening, a winning ball device, a variable winning ball device, a rotating drum, and a display device for decoration or display, and on the back side of the game board, A prize switch collecting cover that guides a prize-winning ball that has won a prize to the various prize holes or a prize ball device to a predetermined path is provided, and a detection switch that detects the balls that have won from the prize hole, the prize device, and a variable prize ball. A device, an electric drive device for driving the special game device, and the like are provided. Therefore, on the back side of the game board, a large number of wirings are attached corresponding to the above-mentioned detection switch, electric drive device and display device.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention]

Then, in order to control the operation of the above-mentioned detection switch, electric drive device and display device, it is necessary to connect each wiring to a control circuit board fixed to a mechanism plate located on the back surface of the game board. If the number of electric drive devices and display devices is large, the number of wires will be correspondingly large, and the work of connecting the wires will be troublesome when assembling the pachinko machine or when exchanging the game board. And it was time consuming. Further, since the back surface of the game board has the same diameter as a winning pachinko ball, if the number of wires increases, a situation may occur in which these wires block the pachinko ball flow path. An object of the present invention is to provide a wiring processing structure for a pachinko machine in which the wiring attached to the back surface of the game can be organized neatly and the connection work is easy.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention is a winning ball set cover member which is attached to the back of the game board and has a winning path on the front side thereof, an input device and an output device which are provided in association with the game board, A control circuit board for driving and controlling the output device in response to an input signal from the input device; and a relay board for detachably connecting the wires of the input device and the output device and the wires of the control circuit board, respectively. The relay substrate is provided at an appropriate place of the prize ball collecting cover member, the prize ball collecting cover member is provided with a wiring processing member for concentrating the respective wires, and the prize ball collecting cover member is A recess is formed at a position avoiding the winning path.

[Action]

According to the present invention, the wiring extending from the input device such as the detection switch arranged on the back surface of the game board, the electric drive device such as the solenoid, and the display device such as the display lamp is once connected to the relay board, and further. Since the wiring from the control circuit board can be connected to the relay board, if the wiring from each device is connected to the relay board in the process of manufacturing the game board, the game board can be used as a pachinko machine. The operation state of various electric operating devices can be secured by a simple work of simply connecting the relay board and the control circuit board after assembling the main body frame. Further, since the wiring connected to the relay board from each of the above devices can be focused by the wiring processing member provided on the winning ball collecting cover member, it is possible to prevent the wiring from blocking the flow path of the pachinko balls, and the game board. When assembling to the pachinko machine body frame, each wiring does not interfere. Further, since the recesses are formed at positions avoiding the winning path of the winning ball collecting cover member, the strength of the winning ball collecting cover member can be improved even if a relay board, a cover, or other heavy objects are provided on the winning ball collecting cover member. Also, the rigidity can be sufficiently maintained.

Further, the wiring for the lamp device 21a is also housed in the wiring housing member 62, fixed in the mounting groove 63, and then connected to the connection terminal 71a. Wirings for the variable winning ball device 19 and the solenoid 51 are also connected to the connection terminals 71f and 71g, respectively, and fixed by the pressing pieces 61a and 61b. In this way, the input device and the output device are fixed, and the prize winning ball collective cover member 40, which has been wired, has already formed the prize hole 14, the starting prize holes 15 to 17, the prize ball device 18, and the variable prize ball device 19. The variable display device 20, the state display device 21, and other known rails and nails are fixed to the back surface of the game board 5 with screws or the like. The game board 5 thus completed is placed on the game board mounting frame 22 and fixed by the tightening metal fittings 25, and then the mechanism board 26 having the control circuit board 80 fixed thereon is rotated and the mechanism board is fixed by an appropriate fixing means. Fix 26 to the front frame 2 side. At this time, a large number of wirings on the back surface of the game board 5 are a prize ball collecting cover member
Since the focusing process is performed by the wiring accommodation groove 57 of 40 and the pressing pieces 61a, 61b, etc., the mechanism plate 26 can be smoothly closed and fixed. After fixing the mechanism plate 26, the wiring extending from the control circuit board 80 is connected to the connection terminal 71c of the relay board 70, and further,
It is connected to the connection terminal 20a of the variable display device 20. In the present embodiment, the connection between the control circuit board 80 and each input device and output device provided on the game board 5 can be completed by such a simple operation and without taking time. In the above embodiment, the winning ball detection switches 45 to 47, the lamp 48, the solenoid 51 and the like can be fixed to the winning ball collecting cover member 40, but these input devices and output devices are game boards. Even if it is directly fixed to 5, the prize winning ball collective cover member 40 may be provided with a wiring processing member.

【The invention's effect】

According to the present invention, the wiring extending from the input device such as the detection switch arranged on the back surface of the game board, the electric drive device such as the solenoid, and the display device such as the display lamp is once connected to the relay board, and further. Since the wiring from the control circuit board can be connected to the relay board, if the wiring from each device is connected to the relay board in the process of manufacturing the game board, the game board can be connected to the pachinko machine body. The operation state of various electrical working devices can be secured by a simple work of simply connecting the relay board and the control circuit board after assembling the frame. Further, since the wiring connected to the relay board from each of the above devices can be focused by the wiring processing member provided on the winning ball collecting cover member, it is possible to prevent the situation where each wiring blocks the flow path of the punch ball, and the gaming board. When assembling to the pachinko machine body frame, each wiring does not interfere. Further, in the type in which the input device and the output device can be directly fixed to the winning ball collecting cover member, the input device and the output device are fixed, and each wiring is converged and connected to the relay board. Since the winning ball collecting cover member is simply attached to the game board, the work of manufacturing the game board can be significantly simplified. Further, since the recesses are formed at the positions avoiding the winning path of the winning ball collecting cover member, even if a relay board, a cover, or other heavy objects are provided on the winning ball collecting cover member, the strength and the strength of the winning ball collecting cover member can be improved. It is possible to maintain sufficient rigidity.
