Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a pachinko machine having an improved synthetic resin front frame for mounting a game board.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional pachinko machine includes a side frame (a wooden frame),
A wooden front frame which is openable and closable with respect to the side frame and which fixes a game board, and a metal frame which is fixed to a square opening periphery of the front frame so as to be freely openable and closable; It is composed of a glass frame or the like that holds a glass plate that covers the front of the board, and a synthetic resin game board accommodating section is attached to the back side of the opening edge of the rectangular opening of the wooden front frame, and the game board accommodating section In general, a square game board is mounted on the game board and stopped by fixing means.

However, in recent years, in order to decorate the game board so as to make the player entertain the player, the front frame and the transparent plate holding frame on the front thereof are made of synthetic resin, and the front frame is attached to the front of the transparent plate holding frame. A decorative body has been proposed in which an electric decorative member is arranged on the front decorative body to have a function of a glass frame and to improve decorativeness (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-213722).
No.).

[0004]

In the above-mentioned conventional wooden front frame, the frame is simply a frame, and no frame is provided with a decorative surface for covering the non-game surface of the game board. A decorative lens mounting hole is provided at the top of the frame, and a decorative lens is mounted on the front of the hole, and a lamp, LED, board,
Since the configuration accommodates the wiring, there is a problem that the structure is complicated and the assembling work is troublesome in the manufacturing process.

[0005] The latter front frame made of synthetic resin also has a frame shape like the wooden frame, and a cover for concealing the non-gaming surface of the gaming board simply by mounting the gaming board from the back side in the gaming board accommodating opening. There is no surface, and a synthetic resin front frame and a transparent body holding frame are separately provided, and various lighting decoration members, that is, an LED board, an LED cover, a lamp board, a lamp cover, and a lens are provided on the front side of the transparent body holding frame. Although a structure having a cover or the like is proposed, the structure of the transparent plate holding frame is complicated, and the wiring of the display substrate provided in the transparent plate holding frame is connected to the front frame through the through hole of the front frame. Since it is connected to a relay board or the like on the back of the body, there has been a problem that the wiring portion has a problem in a portion where the through hole enters and exits each time the transparent plate holding frame is opened and closed. In addition, there is no ball guide rail cover formed on the front frame side, and conventionally, it was necessary to provide a special protective member corresponding to the glass surface in order to protect the pachinko ball from impact on the glass surface. .

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves such a problem, and provides a pachinko machine which uses a game board surface portion concealing portion and display means to give a new sense of interest to the pachinko machine front side and prevent fraud. With the goal. It is another object of the present invention to provide a pachinko machine in which a plurality of display bodies are arranged and accommodated in a display body accommodating section above the game board surface portion concealing section to achieve a display information transmitting effect and a decorative effect. Another object of the present invention is to form a ball guide rail cover body integrally with a synthetic resin front frame so as to protect the glass surface of the front frame.

[0007]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a pachinko machine in which a game area of a game board is formed in a front frame made of synthetic resin on which a front board is mounted on a front side and a game board is mounted on a back side. And a game board surface portion concealing portion configured to conceal a non-game surface outside the game area around the opening.

[0008] The operation of the first aspect of the present invention provides a new sense of taste, which cannot be obtained by the conventional configuration, on the front side of the pachinko machine by providing the game board surface portion concealing portion peculiar to the front frame. At the same time, the game board surface partial concealment portion is formed between the glass surface and the game board surface in a stepped shape, thereby preventing fraud.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided an opening forming a game area of a game board in a front frame made of synthetic resin on which a front panel is mounted on a front side and a game board is mounted on a back side, and a periphery of the opening. A game board surface portion concealing portion formed so as to cover and hide the non-game surface outside the game area, and display means for displaying a decorative member mounted on the front panel in the game board surface portion concealing portion. Is what you do.

The operation of the second aspect of the present invention provides a new sense of taste which cannot be obtained by the conventional configuration on the front side of the pachinko machine due to the synergistic effect of the game board surface portion concealing portion and the display means provided at an appropriate position. Appearance can be achieved, and the game board surface portion concealing portion can be formed in a stepped manner between the glass surface and the game board surface to prevent fraud.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided a display light emitting unit holder for accommodating therein a light emitting unit of a display provided on a back side as a display means provided in the game board surface portion concealing portion of the front frame. Is detachably mounted on the game board surface portion concealing portion.

The operation according to the third aspect of the present invention is that the display body light emitting unit holder for mounting a plurality of display bodies in a row above the game board surface part concealing part is mounted on the display body housing part, and the side part is provided. The display body receiving portion is located at a predetermined distance from the display body housing portion corresponding to the corner of the game board at a predetermined distance so that the display body can be positioned and displayed. Are arranged in such a manner that they do not interfere with each other, so that the display effect of each of the plurality of display bodies is exhibited individually and the light emitting point of each display body is protected. The head of a display body such as a lamp is introduced so as to exhibit a light diffuse diffuse reflection effect.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, a front plate is formed on the front side and is formed so as to conceal a non-game surface outside the game area of the game board of a synthetic resin front frame on which the game board is mounted on the back side. A ball guide rail cover body for covering a side end of a ball guide rail provided on the game board is integrally formed around an opening edge of the game board surface portion concealing portion.

The operation of the fourth aspect of the invention is as follows. The ball guide rail cover is formed integrally with the concealing portion of the game board surface of the synthetic resin front frame so as to prevent the impact of the pachinko ball from hitting the glass surface. It is possible to protect the front frame without attaching the protection member to the glass surface of the pachinko machine.
