Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a mounting structure for an out tank that receives out balls discharged from a pachinko machine.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, this type of out tank 1 has a tank portion 2 with an open top, as shown in FIG. The tank part 2 is located below the out ball discharge gutter 6 of the pachinko machine 5, and the lower end of the leg 7 is connected to the installation island. It is fixed onto the lower horizontal frame 8 with screws or the like. Then, the electrical signal from the detector 4 is sent to the hall computer to determine the number of balls hit.
Comprehensive management of each pachinko machine is performed by calculating the difference in the number of pitches between out balls and winning balls, or the ball exit rate. For this reason, if the out balls discharged from the pachinko machine 5 fly out or spill out of the tank section 2, accurate management becomes impossible, so the out tank 1 is required to be as large as possible.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, when the out tank 1 is made larger, the out tank 1 becomes a hindrance, making it impossible to use tools such as a hammer, making it extremely difficult to install the pachinko machine 5.

The present invention was proposed in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a mounting structure for an out tank for a pachinko machine that allows easy installation of a pachinko machine 5 even if the out tank 1 is enlarged. The purpose is to

[Means for Solving the Problems] The structure of the present invention for achieving the above object will be explained using FIGS. 1 to 3 corresponding to embodiments.

In the present invention, a base plate 9 is fixed to the lower horizontal frame 8 of the installation island on which the pachinko machine 5 is installed, and the lower end of the leg 7 of the out tank 1 that receives the out balls discharged from the pachinko machine 5 is attached to the hinge part 10. The tank 1 is attached to the base plate 9 via the tank 13, thereby making it possible to tilt the out tank 1 backward.

[Function] By tilting the out tank 1 backward, a wide space can be secured in which tools such as a hammer can be used freely, and the installation work of the pachinko machine 5 can be facilitated.

[Embodiment] An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the mounting structure of the out tank of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view thereof. According to the present invention, the base plate 9 on the lower horizontal frame 8 of the installation island on which a large number of pachinko machines 5 are arranged side by side in the horizontal direction is fixed. A hinge portion 10 for attaching the out tank 1 is integrally formed at the outer end of the base plate 9. The hinge portion 10 is formed by protruding two cylindrical portions 12, 12 having a pin insertion hole 11 at the center. on the other hand,
The hinge portion 10 is located at the lower end of the leg 7 of the out tank 1.
A hinge portion 13 is formed to make a pair. The hinge portion 13 is formed by protruding a cylindrical portion 15 that similarly has a pin insertion hole 14 at the center. The protruding position of this cylindrical portion 15 is selected so that it is located between the two cylindrical portions 12, 12. Then, in order to attach the out tank 1 to the base plate 9, the cylindrical part 15
is positioned between the cylindrical parts 12, 12, and the pin 16 is inserted into the insertion holes 11, 14 from the outside. As a result, the out tank 1 is rotatably attached to the base plate 9.

If configured as in this embodiment, the out tank 1 is rotatably attached to the base plate 9, so even if the out tank 1 is enlarged, it is not possible to use tools such as a hammer by tilting it backwards. There is an advantage that the pachinko machine 5 can be easily installed without getting in the way.

In this embodiment, an engagement hole 17 is formed in the base plate 9, and an engagement protrusion 19 having a claw portion 18 at a position corresponding to the engagement hole 17 is provided on the back surface of the leg 7 of the out tank 1. is formed. By engaging the claw portion 18 of the engaging protrusion 19 with the engaging hole 17, the out tank 1 is firmly supported so as not to fall down unnecessarily.

[Effects of the invention] As described above, according to the invention, it is possible to use a large out tank, and the installation work of the pachinko machine can be easily performed without affecting the installation work of the pachinko machine in any way. A unique effect is produced.
