Description

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

[Prior Art] Conventionally, this type of out tank 101 has a tank portion 102 with an open top, as shown in FIG.
A detector 104 that generates an electric signal when the balls pass is installed at the end of a guide gutter 103 that aligns and guides the balls in the tank section 102. With the tank part 102 positioned below, its legs 107
The lower end of the pachinko machine 105 is fixed onto the lower horizontal frame 108 of the island stand on which the pachinko machine 105 is placed with a screw or the like. Electrical signals from the detector 104 are then sent to the hall computer, which calculates the number of balls batted in, the number of differences between out balls and winning balls, or the ball exit rate, etc., and performs comprehensive management of each pachinko machine. . For this reason, the out balls discharged from the pachinko machine 105 are held in the tank section 102.
The out tank 101 is required to be as large as possible because accurate management will not be possible if the out tank jumps out or spills.

Recently, a tilt adjustment bracket has been installed on the lower horizontal frame of the island stand, and the tilt adjustment bracket fixes the pachinko machine so that it can be moved back and forth. There is a tendency to make adjustments possible.

Further, as an example of this type of mounting structure for an out tank, there is one described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 15047/1983. This is done by attaching an out ball holder to the back of the game board installed in a pachinko machine so that it can fall over by shifting the support position of the bearing, and the weight of the balls filling the out ball holder automatically causes it to fall and land on the mechanism board. The ball is drilled into the chute that is installed.

[Problems that the invention aims to solve] By the way, the out tank and tilt adjustment fittings are placed on the back side of the pachinko machine, but it would take a lot of effort to attach these to the bottom horizontal frame of the island stand with screws. There was a problem in that it took time and effort to install the pachinko machine, and it was not possible to speed up the installation work of the pachinko machine. In addition, if the out tank and the tilt adjustment bracket are in almost the same position, if the out tank is large, the out tank will get in the way and you will not be able to use tools such as a hammer or screwdriver, which will prevent you from installing the tilt adjustment bracket or adjusting the pachinko machine. There were also problems that made installation work extremely difficult.

Also, in the case of the second conventional example, when installing the tilt adjustment fitting of a pachinko machine, this and the out ball holder are formed separately, and if they are attached separately by screwing, for example, There is a problem in that it requires time and effort, and furthermore, it is difficult to speed up the installation work of the pachinko machine.

Therefore, the present invention was devised in view of the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to provide a mounting structure for an out tank for a pachinko machine that allows installation work of a pachinko machine using an inclination adjustment fitting to be done quickly and easily. .

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve this purpose, the mounting structure of the out tank for a pachinko machine of the present invention is such that the pachinko machine is mounted in the front and rear direction on the lower horizontal frame of the island stand on which the pachinko machine is placed. Attach a tilt adjustment bracket that can be movably fixed to the
The out tank is attached to the tilt adjustment fitting so that it can be tilted backwards.

[Function] The out tank is integrally fixed to the inclination adjustment fitting and can be tilted backwards, so by fixing the inclination adjustment fitting to the lower horizontal frame of the island stand with screws, etc. Furthermore, by tilting the out tank backward, a large space can be secured in which tools such as a hammer and screwdriver can be freely used, and the installation work of the pachinko machine using the tilt adjustment fitting can be done quickly and easily.

[Embodiment] An embodiment of the mounting structure for an out tank for a pachinko machine according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the mounting structure of an out tank according to the present invention. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a lower horizontal frame of an island stand on which a large number of pachinko machines 2 are arranged side by side in the horizontal direction, and a tilt adjustment fitting 3 is fixed to the upper surface of this frame for attaching the pachinko machines 2 so as to be movable in the front and back direction. Ru. The inclination adjustment fitting 3 has a mounting board 5. Mounting board 5
is selected so that its lateral length is approximately equal to the lateral length of the out tank 6. On both sides of the mounting board 5,
Fixing plates 7, 7 are formed by being bent upward to form a substantially right angle and facing the rear side of the pachinko machine 2.

As shown in FIG. 2, each fixed plate 7, 7 has an elongated hole 8, 8 formed approximately in the center thereof, and a threaded rod 9, 9 is inserted into each elongated hole 8, 8, respectively. Each screw rod 9,
9 has a nut 10 and a wing nut 11 screwed together at the front and rear positions of the fixing plates 7, 7, and by screwing these nuts, the nut 10 and the wing nut 11 are fixed to the fixing plates 7, 7 in a fixed manner in the front and rear directions. Further, screws 1 for fixing the frame 2a of the pachinko machine 2 are provided at all ends of each screw rod 9, 9.
2 and 12 are provided. The screws 12, 12 are prevented from coming off by retaining rings 13, 13 or the like.

In addition, a support stand 1 is provided at the upper end of each fixed plate 7, 7.
