Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] This invention relates to a table-type video game machine, particularly to a cathode ray tube mounting bracket.

[Background of the invention and conventional technology]

Needless to say, games on video game machines come and go rapidly, and the current situation is that the electronic circuit board or software is replaced in a short period of time to replace the game with a new one.

By the way, depending on the content of the game that has been changed, there may be cases where the cathode ray tube has to be installed frontally, that is, turned vertically or horizontally when viewed from the player's side. In this case, the cathode ray tube is fixed to the cabinet from the beginning in a single direction, either vertically or horizontally, so when changing direction, new parts are specially made for the change of direction each time, and these are replaced or attached to the cabinet one by one. In addition, changing the direction of a cathode ray tube involves various complicated and troublesome work, such as drilling holes in the attached parts, and for this reason, play machines are installed. For example, it is very difficult to change gears at coffee shops or play areas, so the current situation is that the play machines have to be transported to a factory, which is difficult for business purposes.
Moreover, it must be said that it is disadvantageous from an economic point of view.

[Purpose of invention]

Therefore, this idea was developed by horizontally fixing a rectangular frame for mounting a cathode ray tube on a bridge inside the cabinet that constitutes the play machine, and placing an intervening position in the central window of the frame on each side naturally formed by the shape of this frame. When the cathode ray tube is turned vertically and horizontally,
Fixing parts are provided that correspond to the corner fittings of the cathode ray tube, and a means for selectively tightening the corner fittings is installed on these fixing parts, so that the play equipment can be easily attached to the place where it is installed, such as a coffee shop or play area. This allows for work to be done by changing direction.

[Structure of the idea]

The structure of the present invention to solve the conventional problems is that a rectangular frame for mounting a cathode ray tube is horizontally fixed to the inside of the cabinet as a bridge, and each side of the frame has a central window interposed therebetween. When the positioned cathode ray tube is turned vertically and horizontally, a plurality of fixing parts are formed to position and correspond to the corner fittings of the cathode ray tube, and the corner fittings are selectively tightened to the fixing parts. The gist of this invention is a cathode ray tube mounting device for a table-type video game machine, which is characterized by the following features.

〔Example〕

FIG. 1 shows a table-type video game machine. A rectangular frame body 2 for mounting a cathode ray tube is horizontally fixed to the inside of a cabinet 1 constituting this game machine with screws 3. When the cathode ray tube 4 interposed in the central window of the frame 2 is turned in the vertical and horizontal directions, a plurality of holes 7 and 8 overlap and coincide with the holes 6 of the metal fittings 5 at the four corners of the cathode ray tube 4, respectively.
(corresponding to the fixed part in the claims) is positioned and formed.

In other words, when the cathode ray tube 4 is turned horizontally as shown by the solid line in FIG. In this case, the hole 6 of the corner fitting is aligned with the hole 8, and screws are inserted through the aligned holes to tighten and fix the cathode ray tube 4 to the frame 2.

In this example, the frame body 2 is formed in one piece, but four members may be joined together by spot welding or the like and assembled into a rectangular frame shape.

[Effect of idea]

As described above, according to the present invention, when the cathode ray tube is turned vertically or horizontally when its image plane is viewed from the front, the fixing portions positioned and formed on each side of the rectangular frame fixed to the cabinet are selected. However, it is only necessary to align the corner fittings of the cathode ray tube with this fixing part and tighten them. Therefore, when changing the direction, it is necessary to specially make and replace new parts for this change of direction, install them, or make holes. Troublesome work such as drilling is completely eliminated, and the game machine can be installed without having to bring it to the factory. For example, it is possible to work on-site at a coffee shop or play area, and the change of direction can be completed easily in a short period of time, so there is no major hindrance to business operations.
It also has great practical effects, such as being extremely advantageous from an economic standpoint.
