Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a pachinko machine.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, pachinko machines tend to be made larger by making the glass door frame synthetic resin and expanding the glass door frame to the full width of the front frame. With the increase in the size of the glass door frame, the lock main body of the lock device conventionally provided beside the glass door frame has been rearranged to the lower position of the front frame.

[0003]

When the lock body of the lock device is relocated to the lower position of the front frame as described above, there are many problems as described below. The locking metal fittings of the lock device provided to lock the front frame to the outer frame are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the back side of the front frame (see reference numeral 8c in FIG. 2), but the lock body of the lock device is a glass door frame. If it is arranged at a lower position below, the distance between the upper locking member and the lock body is too large, which may impair the balance of forces and may hinder the smooth operation of the lock device. Since the position of the keyhole becomes low when used on the island where the pachinko machine is installed, the workability when opening and closing the glass door frame and front frame in daily work deteriorates. Since the position of the keyhole is close to the position of the rotating handle for ball hitting when installed on the island where the pachinko machine is installed, it is easy to perform fraudulent acts using a keypad, etc.
Moreover, since it is difficult for employees to see, there is a risk that the discovery may be delayed. Since the rearrangement of the lock body leads to a large design change of the lock device, it causes a significant cost increase.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above problems, the present invention has a cover member of a locking device fixed to one side of the front side of the front frame and a door-like opening / closing operation on the front side of the front frame. Provided is a pachinko machine having a glass door frame axially mounted as described above, and forming a constricted portion along the outer shape of the cover member at the side edge on the free end side of the glass door frame.

If a constriction is formed on the glass door frame and the cover member of the locking device is fitted therein, the glass door frame can be increased in size while the locking device is placed at a high place as before. Become.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 is a front view of the pachinko machine, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the pachinko machine showing a state in which a glass door frame is opened, and FIG. 3 is a partial perspective view of the pachinko machine showing essential parts.

In the pachinko machine P, an outer frame 2 having a square frame and a curtain plate 1 provided at a lower front portion thereof, and a front side of the outer frame 2 pivotally attached by a hinge metal fitting 3 so as to be capable of opening and closing like a door. Frame 4
It is composed of and. The front frame 4 is made of synthetic resin,
The glass door frame 5 covers almost the upper half of the surface.

The glass door frame 5 has a double structure in which a front side is made of synthetic resin and a metal panel 6 for crime prevention and reinforcement is attached to the back side, and the glass door frame 5 occupies almost the entire width of the front frame 4. Rotating metal fittings 7 are attached to the glass door frame 5 vertically on the left side as viewed from the front. By pivotally attaching the rotating metal fittings 7 to a fixing metal fitting (not shown) on the front frame 4 side, a door shape is formed. It can be opened and closed. Glass frames 5a, 5b, 5c for holding a glass plate G are formed on the metal panel 6, and a vertical glass frame 5a located on the free end side of the glass door frame 5 has a locking device 8 to be described later. Operating member 8a
Is provided with a projecting piece 9 that engages with.

On the other hand, the front frame 4 is provided with a locking device 8 on one side corresponding to the free end side of the glass door frame 5. The lock device 8 has almost the same structure as that used in a conventional pachinko machine, and locks the glass door frame 5 by engaging with a lock body 8b such as a cylinder lock or the projection 9 of the glass door frame 5. And an engaging member 8c for locking the front frame 4 to the outer frame 2 and the like. Furthermore, the lock device 8
Also includes a cover member 8d made of synthetic resin fixed to the front frame 4 for decorating the lock body 8b. As is well known, the lock device 8 unlocks the front frame 4 by inserting a dedicated key into the keyhole of the lock body 8b and rotating it in one direction.
The lock of the glass door frame 5 is unlocked by rotating the exclusive key in the opposite direction. Of course, the structure of the lock device 8 is not limited to such a structure, and may be, for example, a card-type lock device in which a card is inserted to perform an unlocking operation.

Thus, the glass door frame 5 is formed with a concave constricted portion 10 along the outer shape of the cover member 8d of the locking device 8 at the side edge on the free end side. The design of the glass door frame 5, the constricted portion 10 and the cover member 8d is unified, and the cover member 8d is fitted into the constricted portion 10 with the glass door frame 5 closed to provide a sense of unity. Has been.
