DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a front view of a pachinko machine 1 which is an example of a gaming machine. The pachinko machine 1 has a gaming area 2 formed above the center on the front side, and a gaming ball is stored below the gaming area 2. An upper plate 3 and a lower plate 4 are mounted up and down, and a game ball launching handle 5 is provided on the side of the lower plate 4. Further, a front frame 6 is provided around the game area 2, and front frame decoration members 7, 7... Are arranged on the front frame 6 so as to surround the game area 2.
In addition, the game area 2 is provided with a display device 8 capable of displaying a plurality of symbols, game balls winning devices 9, 9,..., And decorative members 10, 10,. Yes. For example, FIG. 2 is an exploded view of the decorative member 10 in the display device 8. The decorative member 10 includes a transparent protective plate 11 and a rear frame member 12 formed so as to surround the screen of the display device 8 from the back side. The front frame member 13, the upper decorative member 14 disposed on the upper front surface of the front frame member 13, and a pair of lower decorative members 15, 15 disposed on the lower front surface of the front frame member 13.
[0007]
The upper decorative member 14 is screwed to the front frame member 13 by screws (not shown) from the back surface of the front frame member 13, but the lower decorative members 15, 15 are attached to the mounting tabs 16 protruding from the front frame member 13. , 16 are screwed by screws 17, 17 from the front. Therefore, on the front surface of the lower decorative member 15, the decorative seals 18 and 18 made of synthetic resin on which a decorative image is drawn are attached with an adhesive so that the heads of the screws 17 and 17 are not visible. Here, small arrows 19 and 19 indicating the positions of the heads of the screws 17 and 17 are written on the decorative seals 18 and 18, so that the positions of the screws 17 and 17 are externally shown as shown in FIG. It can be confirmed.
On the other hand, FIG. 4 is an explanatory view of the front frame 6, and the front frame decoration member 7 arranged on the front frame 6 is also screwed to the mounting tabs 20, 20 protruding from the front frame 6 with screws 21, 21. A decorative sticker 22 for hiding the heads of the screws 21 and 21 is attached to the front surface. Triangle marks 23 and 23 indicating the positions of the heads of the screws 21 and 21 are also indicated on the decorative sticker 22. Thus, the positions of the screws 21 and 21 can be confirmed from the outside.
[0008]
In the pachinko machine 1 configured as described above, the screw positions are indicated on the decorative seals 18 and 22 so that it can be easily identified that the component is screwed at the positions. If it is necessary to remove the lower decorative members 15 and 15 and the front frame decorative member 7 beforehand , the decorative seals 18 and 22 can be broken through with the tip of a screwdriver or the like. For example, the screws 17 and 21 can be loosened and the decorative members 7 and 15 can be easily removed. Therefore, the removal work accompanying dismantling etc. can be performed efficiently in a short time, and it is possible to quickly cope with the separation etc. associated with recycling and disposal.
[0009]
On the other hand, in the above embodiment, the front frame decorative member 7 and the lower decorative member 15 are described as having the decorative seals 18 and 22 made of synthetic resin attached thereto. However, the present invention is similarly applied when a decorative plate is used. Applicable. That is, FIG. 5 shows that the decorative plate 24 for concealing the screw is attached to the front surface of the front frame decorative member 7 screwed by the screws 21 and 21 and the mounting tabs 20 and 20 in the same manner as described above. As shown in FIG. 6, elastic claws 25, 25 project from the back surface of the decorative plate 24, and the elastic claws 25, 25 are inserted into locking holes 26, 26 provided on the front surface of the front frame decorative member 7. Insertion is performed by inserting.
And since the triangle marks 27 and 27 are written on the front surface of the decorative plate 24 at the positions where the heads of the screws 21 and 21 are abutted, it is easy for the components to be screwed at the positions. Can be identified. Therefore, when it is necessary to remove the front frame decoration member 7 at the time of dismantling or the like, if the decoration plate 24 is removed, the exposed screws 21 and 21 can be loosened to easily remove the front frame decoration member 7. It becomes possible and the same effect as the above-mentioned form can be expected.
[0010]
In addition to the arrow, the screw position may be represented by a graphic such as a circle, a star, or a flower as long as it can be identified, but the decoration drawn on the decorative stickers 18 and 22 and the decorative plate 24 may be used. A notation that does not impair the atmosphere of the painting is desirable.
[0011]
And so far, although the form which identifies the screw concealed with decoration bodies, such as a decoration sticker and a decoration board, is explained, even if the screw head appears outside, it is for the simple assembly of parts Since it may be unknown whether the screw or the mounting screw to be attached to and detached from the pachinko machine side, such a case is effective if the above notation is used. In other words, even if the mounting screws are exposed on the decorative member, if they are marked with arrows to distinguish them from other screws, it is only necessary to remove the marked screws during disassembly, improving work efficiency. To do.
[0012]
Of course, the present invention is not limited to the decorative member, but can be a play unit such as the display device 8 or the winning device 9, the upper plate 3, the lower plate 4, or the launch handle 5 as long as it is a component that can be fixed to the pachinko machine with screws. It may be applied in the same manner.
[0013]
【The invention's effect】
According to the first aspect of the present invention, a figure such as an arrow, a circle mark, a star mark, or a flower mark that identifies the position of the screw is attached to the decorative sticker that is attached to the surface of the component and on which the decorative image is drawn. It is easy to identify the position of the screw that fastens the component by disassembling the screw by loosening the screw by piercing the decorative seal according to the graphic notation at the tip of the driver etc. In this case, the component can be easily removed. Therefore, the removal work accompanying dismantling etc. can be performed easily in a short time, and it is possible to promptly deal with the separation associated with recycling and disposal.
