DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a pachinko game machine, and more particularly to a mounting structure for mounting members such as an accessory mounted on a front surface of a game board and a guide member mounted on a back surface.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when a mounting member such as a guide member constituting a pachinko game machine is mounted, it is first positioned with respect to a game board to be mounted and then screwed. Therefore, a description will be given of a mounting structure of such a guide member in a conventional pachinko game machine with reference to the one disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2-74276. FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a guide member according to a conventional pachinko game machine, and FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view showing a state where the guide member is attached to a game board. In the pachinko game machine, a normal winning opening, a starting winning opening, a role winning opening, and the like are formed on the front surface of the gaming board, and the winning balls won from each winning opening are guided by the guidance attached to the back of the gaming board. Member 5
The vehicle is guided along one guideway. Therefore, the guide member 51 needs to be accurately attached to a position where the winning ball won from each winning opening is appropriately guided. The guide member 51 is formed of a translucent synthetic resin material.

[0003] That is, a position for attaching the guide member is predetermined on the game board, and after being positioned at that position, it is fixed to the game board with screws or the like. Positioning bosses 52 are formed as a configuration for such positioning. As shown in FIG. 3, the positioning bosses 52, 52 are provided at predetermined positions on the contact surface side of the guide member 51 with the game board 61 where the guide path is formed. The positioning bosses 52, 52 have a disk shape, are formed with a small projection width, and have a relatively large projection area. On the other hand, a positioning hole 62 of the same shape and size as the positioning bosses 52, 52 is formed at a predetermined position on the back surface of the game board 61. Therefore, the guiding member 51 is connected to the game board 61.
To attach to the game board 61, the guide member 51 is fitted to the game board 61 and is simply fixed to the back surface of the game board 61. Then, the guide member 51 is penetrated by screws or the like and screwed into the game board 61 to be fixed.

[0004]

However, in the pachinko game machine having such a mounting structure, there is a problem that the mounting is inconvenient. That is, for example, the guide member 5
In 1, when attaching the guide member 51 to the game board 61, first, an accessory is fixed to the guide member 51, and then the guide member 51 is fixed to the game board 61. Therefore, when the accessory is fixed to the guide member 51, the guide member 51 formed of a relatively thin synthetic resin material may be warped. In addition to the case where such an accessory is attached, the accessory may expand and contract in the molding process, and may cause warpage of the plate due to the member. Therefore, when the mounting member such as the guiding member 51 is deformed, the positioning boss 52 and the positioning hole 62 are formed in the same shape and substantially the same size in the conventional one, so that the positioning boss 52 and the positioning hole 62 are formed at two or more mounting positions. In other words, even if the fitting hole 62 at one place is fitted, the fitting hole 62 at the other place is displaced, so that the fitting hole 62 does not fit properly. For this reason, problems such as forcibly deforming or forcibly screwing the warped portion by bending it in the reverse direction may occur.

[0005] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a pachinko game machine in which a warping mounting member can be easily mounted to solve such a problem.
