DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bill transfer device (hereinafter simply referred to as a transfer device). For more information,
In a ball rental machine, or in a game facility in which a plurality of amusement tables having a pair of card vending machines and a card type ball rental machine are juxtaposed,
The present invention relates to a transport device disposed on the back side of the game console.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there is a game facility in which a plurality of game machines such as pachinko machines and slot machines are arranged back to back at predetermined intervals. Then, as shown in FIG. 4 , the bills S from the ball lending machine 51 provided on each of the amusement tables 50 are collected by a transport device 52 disposed on the back side of the amusement table row, and the bills are provided on one end of the amusement table row. those to be transported to the device 53 is Ru Oh. As such a transfer device, there is a transfer device in which a bill S inserted from an insertion slot 55 of a bill insertion machine 54 at a symmetric position is transferred by a transfer unit 56 having a belt and rollers therein.

[0003] By the way, in recent years, cards have been developed,
In order to increase the number of female customers by allowing them to play easily without carrying coins, a game console, for example, a pachinko machine and a prepaid card-type ball lending machine (usually called a card-type ball lending machine) are electrically connected. Linked ones are spreading.
The card-type ball lending machine can be attached alone or with the card vending machine.

[0004]

However, in a pachinko machine using the card type ball lending machine, when the operator sits in front of the pachinko machine, the ball lending machine is always located at the left position of the pachinko machine. Due to the rule that the customer must come, a pair of card vending machines and a card-type ball lending machine are replaced with a pair of card vending machines instead of the conventional ball lending machine. In the upper row, it is to the right.)
, The rows (islands) of the pachinko machines are mutually shifted left and right with the slot of the bill input machine symmetrical. As a result, there is a problem that the respective pachinko machines do not align back to back and that the mounting mechanism and the control system of each pachinko machine must be largely moved.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the circumstances described above, an object of the present invention is to provide a transport apparatus capable of orderly arranging a game table having a pair of card vending machines and a card type ball lending machine back to back.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a transfer device according to the present invention.

FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing the arrangement of the transfer device of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing one embodiment of the transfer device of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the transfer device of the present invention on a conventional pachinko island. It is a schematic diagram installed.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a transport device 1 according to the present invention comprises, for example, a bill insertion machine 4 disposed on a back surface 3 side of a row (island) of a game table (pachinko table) 2 in a pachinko game facility. And a transport unit 5. A card-type ball lending machine CR is attached to the left end of the game board 2, and a card vending machine CS is provided at every other game board 2 at the left end of the card-ball lending machine CR. It is designed to be attached. When the number of rows of the game consoles 2 is odd, as shown in FIG.
In a, a pair of card vending machines CS and card type ball lending machines CR are arranged so as to overlap on both ends.

The bill insertion machine 4 is disposed to face a pair of card vending machines CS and a card type ball lending machine CR, and the bill insertion ports 6a and 6b are arranged in the bill conveyance direction A.
Are provided at an upstream position and a downstream position on both side surfaces of the bill input machine 4. Left and right displacement L of input ports 6a, 6b
For example, the width of a card vending machine is 44 mm.
Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the front opening portions of the input port 6a at the upstream position and the input port 6b at the downstream position are offset. The banknotes inserted into the card vending machines CS1 and CS2 are inserted into the insertion ports 6a and 6b of the banknote insertion machine 4, and then inserted from the curved front end opening portion in the banknote transport direction,
Then, the bill is collected by the transport unit 5 and
Is sent to As the transport unit 5, a unit that transports bills by sandwiching the bills with rollers and belts can be used, but the present invention is not limited to this. The bill input machine 4 includes pulleys 11a and 11b that rotatably guide the round belt 10 for conveyance to a position on the downstream side in the conveyance direction.
And a roller 12 pressed against the round belt 10, and the round belt 1
A pulley 14 that rotationally guides the roller 3 and a roller 15 that is pressed against a round belt are arranged. And the pulley 11b
And a gear 16 screwed to a gear portion (not shown) formed on the support shafts 20 a and 20 b of the pulley 14.
0 and 13 are synchronized and linked. The gear 16 is driven by a motor (not shown) provided below the box 17. Reference numerals 18 and 19 are tension rollers. In the present embodiment, since the bill collection device is located on the left side, the shape of the insertion port is a left-handed type in which bills can be conveyed to the left. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and bill collection is not limited to this. If the device is in the right position,
The shape of the inlet can be a right-handed type.

Further, the card vending machine generally has a function of operating a console based on information transmitted by a signal when a bill is inserted to prevent the bills from being overlapped, thereby shifting and separating the bills. Alternatively, a separation method using a stacker may be used. Therefore, the bill insertion machine of the present transport device does not necessarily need to have the function of preventing bills from overlapping.

As shown in FIG. 3, in the conventional pachinko island which is installed without considering the bill conveyance, the back-to-back pachinko table 21 has the width (40 to 4)
4mm). Therefore, if the banknote insertion machine 24 having the input port shifted to the left and right by 44 mm in the transport apparatus of the present invention is used, the input port has a margin for inserting the banknote of about 2 to 3 mm. Even if it attaches, a bill conveyance device can be installed, without moving the whole, a ball lending machine, etc.

[0014]

As described above, in the transfer apparatus of the present invention, when changing from the conventional cash ball lending machine to the card type ball lending machine, the slot of the bill insertion machine is shifted to the left and right, thereby enabling the game table to be moved. Since it is not necessary to change the mechanism of each unit in the row (island) or the entire system, each unit can be arranged neatly back-to-back as in the related art. It can also be used for equipment that does not consider a conventional transport device.
