  The hinge pin 40 is, for example, a sliding part 41 formed in a columnar shape with a predetermined length and an operation part 42 extending in a horizontal direction from the lower end of the sliding part 41 and is entirely L-shaped in side view. And is supported by a bearing portion 47 projecting from the inner frame 2 so that the glass door 3 can be opened and closed with respect to the inner frame 2 (in FIGS. 5 and 7). A position at which the hinge pin 40 is indicated by a solid line) S1 and a position at which the glass door 3 can be detached from the gaming machine main body frame A by being separated from the bearing portion 47 (the hinge pin 40 in FIGS. 5 and 7). The position is indicated by a virtual line) and is movable to S2.

The length of the sliding portion 41 constituting the hinge pin 40 is such that the tip that protrudes upward through the shaft support hole 33a of the first support collar 33 is supported in the bearing portion 47. The operating portion 42 that protrudes downward by a predetermined length after passing through the shaft support hole 34 a of the support collar portion 34 and extends from the downwardly protruding portion is at a position where it can be inserted into the cutout hole 39 of the reinforcing plate 29. The length is such that it can be placed, and when it is pushed downward, the tip is detached from the bearing portion 47 so that the operation portion 42 can come into contact with the horizontal end surface 46 of the base plate 26.
Further, the length of the operation portion 42 is set to a length that allows the operation portion 42 to protrude from the lower end of the sliding portion 41 through the notch hole 39 and to protrude toward the back surface of the reinforcing plate 29 by a predetermined length.
The configuration of the hinge pin 40 is not particularly limited to the configuration of the present embodiment, and the design can be changed within the scope of the present invention.

  Further, in this embodiment, a locking groove 43 that is continuous in the circumferential direction is provided at a predetermined location (near the tip in this embodiment) of the operation portion 42, and one end 44 a is locked to the locking groove 43. The other end 44b is provided with an elastic member 44 to be described later locked to the locking piece 29a on the back surface of the reinforcing plate 29, so that the hinge pin 40 is always urged in the direction of the shaft support position S1. In the present embodiment, the description will be given with the groove shape in which the locking groove 43 is continuous in the circumferential direction in the vicinity of the tip of the operation portion 42. However, if the one end 44a of the elastic member 44 can be locked, the locking groove 43 is continuous. In addition, as long as the one end 44a of the elastic member 44 can be locked, a configuration other than the groove shape, for example, a hole shape that can be locked by inserting the one end 44a can be adopted. It is.

For example, a coil spring is used as the elastic member 44 in this embodiment as shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, and the engaging groove at the distal end of the operation portion 42 of the hinge pin 40 protruding from the notch hole 39 to the back side of the base plate 26. 43, one end 44a is latched, and the other end 44b is latched to a latching piece 29a projecting (cut up) at a predetermined position above the notch hole 39 on the back surface of the reinforcing plate 29, The hinge pin 40 is disposed on the back surface side of the base plate 26 and is always biased toward the bearing portion 47 (in the direction of the shaft support position S1) by the elasticity of the coil spring 44 (in FIG. 5 and FIG. 7, the hinge pin 40). 40 is indicated by a solid line).
That is, the hinge pin 40 is pushed down against the elasticity of the elastic member 44 and moved to the disengagement position (the position indicated by the phantom line in FIGS. 5 and 7) S2, and then the hinge pin 40 is moved. When the push-down operation is released, the hinge pin 40 is moved (returned) to the axial support position (position indicated by the solid line in FIGS. 5 and 7) S1 by the urging of the elastic member 44.
In this embodiment, a coil spring is employed as an example of the elastic member 44. However, the hinge pin 40 can always be urged in the direction of the bearing 47, and the hinge pin 40 is pushed downward to move the hinge pin 40 to the separation position S2. The elastic member is not particularly limited as long as it is a movable member, and other elastic members can be appropriately selected within the scope of the present invention.

The movement restricting means 45 is a means for restricting the movable range of the hinge pin 40 in the vertical direction. When the hinge pin 40 is moved downward in the work of removing the glass door 3, the hinge pin 40 is moved to the first position. The structure which controls so that it may not detach | leave from the support collar part 33 and the 2nd support collar part 34 is employ | adopted within the scope of the present invention.
For example, in this embodiment, a horizontal end face 46 provided by cutting out the upper end of one side (the one side of the rotation shaft side) 26 d to which the reinforcing plate 29 is attached is formed in the upper end of the reinforcing plate 29. A configuration is adopted in which the vertically movable range R1 of the hinge pin 40 is restricted by restricting (narrowing) the region of the notch hole 39 in accordance with the position of the predetermined region of the notch hole 39 provided in the vertical direction.

Specifically, the movement restricting means 45 has a bearing portion 47 provided in the inner frame 2 of the gaming machine main body with a vertically movable range R1 of the hinge pin 40 in the cutout hole 39 restricted by the horizontal end face 46. The length is limited to be shorter than the length (range) R2 from the tip of the hinge pin 40 in a state of being pivotally supported to the first support flange 33.
Thus, by having the relationship of R1 <R2, for example, when the glass door 3 is removed, even when the hinge pin 40 is pulled down to release the shaft support state of the hinge pin 40 to the bearing portion 47, Since the operation part 42 of the hinge pin 40 contacts the horizontal end face 46, the hinge pin 40 (sliding part 41 of the hinge pin) is not detached from the first support collar 33.
Further, the position where the lower end of the elastic member 44 in the operation portion 42 of the hinge pin 40 is locked is the position where the movement restricting means 45 (horizontal end face 46) abuts in this embodiment. With this configuration, the elastic member 44 is prevented from being detached from the hinge pin 40 by the urging force of the elastic member 44 by the movement restricting means 45.

  The movement restricting means 45 is not limited to the configuration of the present embodiment, and the design can be changed within the scope of the present invention. For example, it is also within the scope of the present invention to limit the movable range of the hinge pin 40 by setting the notch hole 39 provided in the reinforcing plate 29 narrow in advance so as to satisfy the formula of R1 <R2. It is also within the scope of the present invention to limit the movable range of the hinge pin 40 by separately providing the reinforcing plate 29 or the base plate 26 with a member that closes the predetermined region of the notch hole 39.

Here, the attaching / detaching operation of the glass door 3 of the gaming machine of this embodiment will be described.
When the glass door 3 is attached to the inner frame 2, first, the hinge pin 38 provided on the lower support collar portion 35 is supported by the bearing portion protruding from the lower side of the inner frame 2. The hinge pin 40 pivotally supported by the upper support collar 32 is pushed down in a direction (downward) against the urging of the elastic member 44. Thereby, the tip of the hinge pin 40 is pushed down to a position close to the upper end surface of the first support collar 33.
In this state, the glass door 3 is moved to a coaxial position where the hinge pin 40 matches the shaft hole 47a of the bearing portion 47 projecting from the inner frame 2.
When the downward pressing force against the bias applied to the hinge pin 40 at the matched position is released, the hinge pin 40 is raised by the biasing force of the elastic member 44 and is supported by the bearing portion 47 ( The position which the hinge pin 40 is shown with a continuous line in FIG.5 and FIG.7).

Further, when removing the glass door 3 from the gaming machine main body frame A, first, the glass door 3 is opened, and then the hinge pin 40 which is supported by the bearing portion 47 and protrudes from the notch hole 39 toward the rear surface of the glass door 3. When the operation portion 42 is pushed downward against the urging force of the elastic member 44, the tip of the hinge pin 40 supported by the bearing portion 47 is disengaged from the bearing portion 47 (the hinge pin 40 in FIGS. 5 and 7). Is indicated by a virtual line).
Then, if the glass door 3 is slid and moved obliquely upward while maintaining this disengaged state, the hinge pin 40 provided on the lower support collar portion 35 is projected below the gaming machine main body frame A. The glass door 3 can be detached from the gaming machine main body frame A by being detached from the bearing portion 47 that is present.

At the time of attaching and removing the glass door 3, when the hinge pin 40 is pushed down against the urging force of the elastic member 44 and is detached from the bearing portion 47 of the hinge pin 40, the hinge pin 40 moves to the movement restricting means 45.

Further, the support collar may be provided integrally on the front surface of the base plate. Further, both the notch hole and the movement restricting means may be provided integrally with the base plate together with the support flange.
Furthermore, the support collar portion may be provided integrally on the back surface side of the decorative plate 27, or may be formed separately from the decorative plate and fixed to the back surface of the decorative plate.
In addition, it is also possible to separately form an attachment member integrally provided with the upper support flange, the notch hole, and the movement restricting means, and to attach and detach the attachment member between the base plate and the decorative member. Is within the range. By being configured in this way, it is possible to leave the mounting member configuration in the replacement of the decorative member of the gaming machine or the like.
"Modification 2"

Moreover, in Example 1, although the support collar part 31 (32) was provided in the glass door 3 side, and one Embodiment which provided the bearing part 47 in the game machine main body frame A side (inner frame 2 side) was demonstrated, The present invention is not construed as being limited thereto. For example, the gaming machine main body frame A side (inner frame 2 side) is provided with a support collar 31 (32), and the glass door 3 is provided with a bearing 47. It can be employed and is within the scope of the present invention.
Moreover, although Example 1 demonstrated with the form which attaches the glass door 3 to the one side of the inner frame 2, it can also be attached to the one side of the outer frame 1, and is in the scope of the present invention. In this case, it is assumed that either one of the glass door 3 and the outer frame 1 as the gaming machine main body frame A side is provided with a supporting collar portion 31 (32) and the other is provided with a bearing portion 47.
“Modification 3”

In the present embodiment, the elastic member 44 is shown with an example in which the other end 44b is attached to the locking piece 29a on the back surface of the reinforcing plate 29 and the one end 44a is attached to the operation portion 42 of the hinge pin 40. It is also possible to adopt other forms.
For example, a coil spring is disposed between the first support collar and the second support collar, and the hinge pin is provided to pass through the coil spring, and the tip of the coil spring (end near the first support collar) It is also possible to adopt a configuration in which the is fixed to the sliding portion of the hinge pin. According to such a configuration, the hinge pin is constantly pushed up in the direction of the pivot support position by the bias of the coil spring. When the hinge pin is pushed down to release the shaft support state, the tip of the coil spring is fixed to the sliding portion in the region between the first support collar and the second support collar, so the hinge pin is pushed down. Thus, the coil spring is pressed against the bias.
Further, in the case where the hinge pin is provided on the gaming machine main body frame side, the elastic member can adopt a form in which one end is attached to the hinge pin and the other end is attached to an arbitrary portion of the gaming machine main body frame.
In the present embodiment, the description has been given with the form including the elastic member.However, as long as the hinge pin is inserted into the shaft hole of the bearing portion and can be detached from the shaft hole, Even a configuration without an elastic member is within the scope of the present invention.
