  In this embodiment, the second part 3701 has a plurality of guide portions, a guide portion 3701ba and a guide portion 3701bb, and the guide portions 3701ba and 3701bb connect the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a. I will give you guidance. That is, in this embodiment, when connecting the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a, the first component 3700 is placed on the guide portions 3701ba and 3701bb, and at this time, the second component 3701 A load by the first component 3700 is applied to the guide portions 3701ba and 3701bb in the first direction which is the same direction as that of the first embodiment shown in FIG. Each of the guide portions 3701ba and 3701bb is shorter than the width of the first component 3700 on the surface where the first component 3700 and the second component 3701 are opposed to each other, and is positioned on both sides of the width of the first component 3700. The guide portion 3701ba is longer than the guide portion 3701bb. Therefore, the area in contact with the first component 3700 is wider in the guide portion 3701ba than in the guide portion 3701bb.

  The first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a are connected by relatively moving in the second direction, which is the same direction as in the first embodiment shown in FIG.

  In the state shown in FIG. 12 and FIG. 13, that is, in the state where there is no abnormality in the guide parts 3701ba and 3701bb, all of the load by the first part 3700 is applied to the guide parts 3701ba and 3701bb of the second part 3701. The connection portion between 3700a and the second connector 3701a is not loaded with the first component 3700, and a load that damages the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a is not applied.

  In this embodiment, the first direction and the second direction are not parallel.

  FIG. 14 is a perspective view showing a state in which a connector is connected in the fourth embodiment of the connector connection configuration shown in FIGS. 12 and 13 when an abnormality occurs in the guide portion 3701bb.

  FIG. 15 is a diagram showing a case where an abnormality occurs in the guide portion 3701bb in the fourth embodiment of the connector connection configuration shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, and FIG. It is the side view which looked, (b) is the side view which looked at FIG. 14 from direction XVb, (c) is the side view which looked at FIG. 14 from direction XVc.

  In the example shown in FIGS. 14 and 15, there is an abnormality that the guide part 3701bb of the second part 3701 is missing due to wear or failure to form. In this case, in a state where the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a are connected, the first component 3700 cannot be placed on the guide portion due to the lack of the guide portion 3701bb on the side where the guide portion 3701bb should be. In addition, an inclined load by the first component 3700 is applied to the connection portion between the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a, and the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a are damaged or detached. In some cases, the possibility of the connection being released increases.

  Due to the inclined load applied to the connection portion between the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a, the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a may be damaged according to the inclination. For example, the connector on the side where the first part 3700 is not in contact with the guide portion 3701ba or 3701bb may be fragile, and the connection pin of the connector may bend along the inclination, so that the connector damage state is observed. As a result, it may be possible to infer an abnormal situation of the guide portions 3701ba and 3701bb.

  However, in FIG. 14 and FIG. 15, the guide part 3701bb in which an abnormality has occurred has a smaller area in contact with the first part 3700 than the normal guide part 3701ba. In some cases, the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a are unlikely to be damaged, and the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a are unlikely to be damaged.

  FIG. 16 is a perspective view showing a state in which a connector is connected in the fourth embodiment of the connector connection configuration shown in FIGS. 12 and 13 when an abnormality occurs in the guide portion 3701ba.

  FIG. 17 is a diagram showing a case where an abnormality occurs in the guide portion 3701ba in the fourth embodiment of the connector connection configuration shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, and FIG. 17 (a) shows the direction of FIG. 16 from the direction XVIIa. It is the side view which looked, (b) is the side view which looked at FIG. 16 from direction XVIIb, (c) is the side view which looked at FIG. 16 from direction XVIIc.

  In the example shown in FIGS. 16 and 17, there is an abnormality that the guide part 3701ba of the second part 3701 is missing due to wear or failure to form. In this case, in a state where the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a are connected, the first part 3700 cannot be placed on the guide portion due to the lack of the guide portion 3701ba on the side where the guide portion 3701ba should be. In addition, an inclined load by the first component 3700 is applied to the connection portion between the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a, and the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a are damaged or detached. In some cases, the possibility of the connection being released increases.

  Due to the inclined load applied to the connection portion between the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a, the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a may be damaged according to the inclination. For example, the connector on the side where the first part 3700 is not in contact with the guide portion 3701ba or 3701bb may be fragile, and the connection pin of the connector may bend along the inclination, so that the connector damage state is observed. As a result, it may be possible to infer an abnormal situation of the guide portions 3701ba and 3701bb.

  Here, the guide part 3701ba in which an abnormality has occurred in FIGS. 16 and 17 has a larger area in contact with the first part 3700 than the normal guide part 3701bb. There are cases where the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a are more likely to be damaged than when the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a are connected to each other and an abnormality occurs in the guide portion 3701bb. When a plurality of guide portions are provided in this way, the susceptibility to damage of the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a changes by changing the contact area with the first component 3700, respectively. When the electrical connection through the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a is abnormal, it is clear which guide part has an abnormality by looking at the first connector 3700a and the second connector 3701a. In some cases, the maintainability can be improved.

  Note that the floating connector is sometimes referred to as a combination of a connector having a fixed position and a connector having a movable range on a connection surface opposite to the connector having the fixed position. Here, the floating connector has a movable range. The connector is sometimes called a floating connector.

  In this embodiment, for example, the connectors 706a, 706b and 706c on the game board 200 side may be fixed connectors, and the connectors 707a, 707b and 707c on the main body 104 side may be floating connectors. In this case, it may be difficult to connect the connector due to the movable range of the floating connector. Therefore, in this embodiment, a stable connector connection may be made possible by a guide unit and a guided unit, which will be described in detail later.

In addition, it is possible to distinguish between a connector connection failure and a board failure, and if there is a connector connection failure, it may be possible to infer that the guide portion is abnormal.

  For example, even if there is a defect in the liquid crystal display, there is a possibility that the electrical connection of the connector is abnormal and the guide portion is broken if the ejection or the payout is performed. On the other hand, if neither the launch nor the payout is performed even in the same situation, there is a possibility that a problem has occurred in the power supply board.

  FIG. 29 is a perspective view showing a state in which the main body 104 is opened from the outer frame 102 of the pachinko machine 100 in the eighth embodiment.

  30 is an enlarged perspective view showing the vicinity of the connector in the pachinko machine 100 of FIG. 29, (a) is a view showing the vicinity of the connector on the main body 104 side, and (b) is the connector on the outer frame 102 side. It is a figure which shows the vicinity.

  FIG. 31 is an enlarged perspective view showing the vicinity of the connector in the pachinko machine 100 shown in FIG. 29. FIG. 31A is a diagram showing a state in which the connector on the main body 104 side is connected to the connector on the outer frame 102 side. (B) is a figure which shows the state which connected the connector by the side of the main body 104 to the connector by the side of the outer frame 102. FIG.

  Positioning protrusions 851 are provided on both sides of the connector 850 on the outer frame 102 side so that the connector can be smoothly connected. On both sides of the connector 860 on the main body 104 opposite to this, protrusions 851 are provided. A hole 861 corresponding to is provided.

  Further, the main body 104 is provided with a positioning member 852, and the outer frame 102 opposed thereto is provided with a sheet metal member 852 in which the positioning member 862 is slid and stored. In this embodiment, the sheet metal member 852 is a guide portion, and the positioning member 862 is a guided portion. In this embodiment, a guide portion 852a is further provided under the connector 850 as a guide portion for guiding the bottom portion of the main body 104 when the connector is connected.

  When the main body 104 is closed with respect to the outer frame 102, the connector 850 and the connector 860 are connected. At this time, the protrusions 851 are fitted into the holes 861 and the positioning members 862 are slid and stored on the sheet metal member 852, whereby the connectors are positioned.

  In this example, the protruding portion 851 is configured to protrude from the hole 861, but the portion protruding from the hole 861 may be used for positioning of another member (for example, the game board 200).

  The connector 850 on the outer frame 102 side that does not move during the opening / closing operation may be a floating connector, and the connector 860 on the main body 104 side that moves during the opening / closing operation may be a floating connector. is there.

  Here, there is a case where a non-moving connector (fixed connector) is arranged on the main body 104 that opens and closes, and a moving connector (floating connector) is arranged on the non-operating outer frame 102, which increases the game area. This is because the game board has become larger as it goes, and there is room for installing a connector board.

  The treble speaker 120 is housed in the front frame door 106, but the bass speaker (not shown) is housed in a speaker box 123 provided in the outer frame 102. Therefore, connectors for supplying power are different between the high-frequency speaker 120 and the low-frequency speaker (stored in the speaker box 123). In the case of the present embodiment, the bass speaker is supplied with power via connectors 850 and 860. For this reason, when there is an abnormality in the electrical connection of the connectors 850 and 860, no sound is output from the bass speaker or it is difficult to be performed. From this, it can be understood from the abnormality of the output of the bass speaker that the electrical connection of the connectors 850 and 860 is poor, and that there is a problem in the sheet metal member 852 and the guide portion 852a which are the guide portions, so that the maintainability is improved. May be possible.

  The connector 706a is mounted by contacting the contact surface 706as with the substrate 705, for example, by soldering. The connector 706b is mounted by contacting the contact surface 706bs with the substrate 704, for example, by soldering. The connector 706c is mounted by contacting the contact surface 706cs with the substrate 704, for example, by soldering.

  The connector 706a and the connector 707a connected to each other may or may not be floating connectors. In this embodiment, a floating connector is used. When the connector 707a is attached to the main body 104, the connector 707a is floated (movable) so as to be able to absorb the displacement of the connection position within at least a plane parallel to the connection surface with the connector 706a of the connection partner.

  The connector 706b and the connector 707b connected to each other may or may not be a floating connector. In this embodiment, a floating connector is used. When the connector 707b is attached to the main body 104, the connector 707b is floated (movable) so as to be able to absorb the displacement of the connection position in a plane parallel to the connection surface with the connector 706b of the connection partner.

  Since the connector 706a, the connector 706b, and the connector 706c are not floating, they are not easily damaged. Further, the connector 706a, the connector 706b, and the connector 706c are generally referred to as housings and are not easily damaged because they are covered with a metal frame.

  The connector 707a is mounted by contacting the contact surface 707as with the main body 104 and connecting with, for example, solder. The connector 707b is mounted by contacting the contact surface 707bs with the main body 104 and connecting with, for example, solder. The connector 707c is mounted by contacting the contact surface 707cs with the main body 104 and connecting them with, for example, solder. At this time, the height of the connector 707a is increased by a connector connecting portion (not shown).

  By configuring as described above, the connector 707a can be configured to be most easily damaged, and the connector 707a may be inspected without inspecting all the connectors at the time of inspecting the connectors.

  In addition, in a plurality of connectors, only the most easily damaged ones may be inspected, or only some of the plurality of connectors are targeted and some of them are most damaged. In some cases, it is possible to know the state of damage to other connectors by inspection of easy-to-use items.

  In addition, the connector with a longer long side is less likely to break due to the impact at the time of connection being dispersed, but by preparing a connector with a short long side so that it is easy to break intentionally, checking the damage, Although it can be configured so that the damaged state of the other connector can be known, in this case, since the connector having a short long side is inexpensive, the damaged state of the other connector may be known with an inexpensive configuration.

It is a figure which shows a state.

  56 is an enlarged view of the connector portion of FIG.

  In the third embodiment, the first connector 200a2 provided on the game board 200 which is the first part and the second connector 104a2 provided on the main body 104 which is the second part are connected, and the first The structure which connects the 3rd connector 200a1 provided in the game board 200 which is these components, and the 4th connector 104a1 provided in the main body 104 which is the 2nd components is shown.

  The first connector 200a2 comes into contact with the game board 200 at its contact surface 200a2s and is electrically connected and mounted.

  Between the second connector 104a2 and the main body 104, a connector connecting portion 104b2 is provided. The second connector 104a2 is in contact with the connector connecting portion 104b2 at its contact surface 104a2s, and the second connector 104a2 is electrically connected to the main body 104 via the connector connecting portion 104b2.

  Between the third connector 200a1 and the game board 200, a connector connection portion 200b1 is provided. The third connector 200a1 is in contact with the connector connecting portion 200b1 at the contact surface 200a1s, and the third connector 200a1 is mounted on the game board 200 by being electrically connected via the connector connecting portion 200b1.

  The fourth connector 104a1 is in contact with the main body 104 at its contact surface 104a1s and is electrically connected and mounted.

  The main body 104 has a support portion 104 d that rotatably supports one end of the game board 200 and a housing portion 104 e that houses the game board 200. The support portion 104d has a protruding portion 104c that holds down one end of the inserted game board 200 so as not to come off. The game board 200 having one end inserted into the support portion 104d is rotated around the one end to be opened and closed. It is possible. When the game board 200 is closed, the game board 200 is housed in the housing portion 104 e of the main body 104.

  By closing the game board 200, the first connector 200a2 and the second connector 104a2 are pressed and connected, and the third connector 200a1 and the fourth connector 104a1 are pressed and connected. When the game board 200 is opened, the connection between the first connector 200a2 and the second connector 104a2 and the connection between the third connector 200a1 and the fourth connector 104a1 are released.

  Here, considering the distance from the support portion 104d to each connector, the distance L1 (see FIG. 55B) from the support portion 104d to the first connector 200a2 and the second connector 104a2 is as follows. It is shorter than the distance L2 (see FIG. 55B) to the third connector 200a1 and the fourth connector 104a1. In this case, when the game board 200 is closed, the first connector 200a2 and the second connector 104a2 are first contacted, and the next contact is the third connector 200a1 and the fourth connector 104a1. It is. In the case of the first contact, the wobble between the game board 200 and the main body 104 is large, and there is a momentum for closing and the possibility of breakage is high. In contrast, in the third connector 200a1 and the fourth connector 104a1, contact and connection between the first connector 200a2 and the second connector 104a2 proceed, and the game board 200 and the main body 104 are wobbled or closed. Therefore, the third connector 200a1 and the fourth connector 104a1 are less likely to be damaged than the first connector 200a2 and the second connector 104a2.

  The distance from the support portion 104d to the first connector 200a2 and the second connector 104a2 may be longer than the distance from the support portion 104d to the third connector 200a1 and the fourth connector 104a1, In this case, the third connector 200a1 and the fourth connector 104a1 are more likely to be damaged than the first connector 200a2 and the second connector 104a2.

Further, the predetermined surface of the game board 200 as the first component is parallel to the contact surface 200a2s of the first connector 200a2, and is the surface farthest from the contact surface 200a2s on the opposite side to the first connector 200a2. Then, from this predetermined surface, the contact portion of the first connector 200a2 that comes into contact with the second connector 104a2 (the first contact portion when the player attempts to close the game board 200 may be used, or the game board 200 is closed. The height of the first electrode may be H1 (see FIG. 56).
Further, the predetermined surface of the main body 104 that is the second component is parallel to the contact surface 104a2s of the second connector 104a2 and is the surface farthest from the contact surface 104a2s on the opposite side to the second connector 104a2. At this time, from this predetermined surface, the contact portion that contacts the first connector 200a2 in the second connector 104a2 via the connector connection portion 104b2 (the first contact position when trying to close the game board 200, It may be the electrode location that comes into contact first when the game board 200 is to be closed.) Until the height is H2 (see FIG. 56),
Further, the predetermined surface of the game board 200 as the first component is parallel to the contact surface 200a1s of the third connector 200a1, and is the surface farthest from the contact surface 200a1s on the opposite side to the third connector 200a1. Then, from this predetermined surface, the contact portion that contacts the fourth connector 104a1 in the third connector 200a1 via the connector connection portion 200b1 (the first contact point when the game board 200 is to be closed may be used. , It may be the electrode portion that contacts first when the game board 200 is to be closed.) Until the height is H3 (see FIG. 56),
Further, the predetermined surface of the main body 104 which is the second component is parallel to the contact surface 104a1s of the fourth connector 104a1 and is the surface farthest from the contact surface 104a1s on the opposite side to the fourth connector 104a1. Sometimes, from this predetermined surface, the contact portion of the fourth connector 104a1 that makes contact with the third connector 200a1 (the first contact portion when the game board 200 is to be closed may be used, or the game board 200 may be closed. If it is H4 (see FIG. 56)
If the distance from the support portion 104d to each connector is the same, this higher height connector is more likely to break.

  Accordingly, in this example, the first connector 200a2 and the second connector 104a2 are more likely to be damaged because the second connector 104a2 protrudes and is higher in height. Recognize.

  From this, if the second connector 104a2 is inspected and is normal, the first connector 200a2, the third connector 200a1 and the fourth connector 104a1 are also normal, and it is not necessary to further inspect these. There is a case.

  The first part and the second part (for example, the main body 104) are used as the predetermined surface of the first part that serves as a reference for the height of the connector provided on the first part (for example, the game board 200). The first part may be a surface that comes into contact with the second part when the corresponding connectors are assembled and connected. Of the connectors provided in the first component, the connector protruding to the second component side with respect to the predetermined surface is more likely to be damaged.

  Similarly, the second part and the first part (for example, the game board 200) are used as the predetermined surface of the second part that serves as a reference for the height of the connector provided on the second part (for example, the main body 104). The second component may be a surface that contacts the first component when the corresponding connectors are connected to each other. Of the connectors provided in the second component, the connector protruding to the first component side with respect to the predetermined surface is more likely to be damaged.

FIG. 60C is a rear view of the board 200, and FIG. 60C is an enlarged view showing a portion surrounded by a circle D of the one-dot chain line shown in FIG.

  In the third embodiment, the first connector 104a3 provided on the main body 104, which is the first component, and the second connector 200a3 provided on the game board 200, which is the second component, are connected, and the first connector The structure which connects the 3rd connector 104a4 provided in the main body 104 which is these parts, and the 4th connector 200a4 provided in the game board 200 which is the 2nd parts is shown.

  The first connector 104a3 is in contact with the main body 104 at its contact surface 104a3s and is electrically connected and mounted.

  Between the second connector 200a3 and the game board 200, a connector connecting portion 200b3 is provided. The second connector 200a3 is in contact with the connector connection portion 200b3 at the contact surface 200a3s, and the second connector 200a3 is mounted on the game board 200 by being electrically connected via the connector connection portion 200b3.

  Between the third connector 104a4 and the main body 104, a connector connecting portion 104b4 is provided. The third connector 104a4 is in contact with the connector connecting portion 104b4 at the contact surface 104a4s, and the third connector 104a4 is electrically connected to the main body 104 via the connector connecting portion 104b4 and mounted.

  The fourth connector 200a4 comes into contact with the game board 200 at its contact surface 200a4s and is electrically connected and mounted.

  The main body 104 has a support portion 104 d that rotatably supports one end of the game board 200 and a housing portion 104 e that houses the game board 200. The support portion 104d has a protruding portion 104c that holds down one end of the inserted game board 200 so as not to come off. The game board 200 having one end inserted into the support portion 104d is rotated around the one end to be opened and closed. It is possible. When the game board 200 is closed, the game board 200 is housed in the housing portion 104 e of the main body 104.

  By closing the game board 200, the first connector 104a3 and the second connector 200a3 are pressed and connected, and the third connector 104a4 and the fourth connector 200a4 are pressed and connected. When the game board 200 is opened, the connection between the first connector 104a3 and the second connector 200a3 and the connection between the third connector 104a4 and the fourth connector 200a4 are released.

  Here, referring to FIGS. 60B and 60C, the length of the long side of the connection surface of the second connector 200a3 (the length of the side in contact with the connection partner connector) L4 is the fourth length. It is shorter than the length L3 of the long side in the connection surface of the connector 200a4. If the length of the long side of the connection surface, that is, the length of the side that contacts simultaneously with the connector of the connection partner is long, the contact and impact of collision when connecting the connectors may be dispersed and may not be easily damaged.

  Therefore, in this example, the length of the long side of the connection surface of the second connector 200a3 is shorter than the length of the long side of the connection surface of the fourth connector 200a4, and the first connector 104a3 and the second connector 200a3. In the first connector 104a3 and the second connector 200a3, the second connector 200a3 protrudes and is higher in height than the second connector 200a3. It can be seen that 200a3 has the highest possibility of breakage. Even when the distance from the support portion 104d to each connector is taken into consideration, the distance from the support portion 104d to the first connector 104a3 and the second connector 200a3 is the same as that of the third connector 104a4 and the fourth connector. Since it is shorter than the distance to the connector 200a4, it can be seen from this that the second connector 200a3 is most likely to be damaged.

  From this, if the second connector 200a3 is inspected and is normal, the first connector 104a3, the third connector 104a4 and the fourth connector 200a4 are also normal, and it is not necessary to further inspect these. There is a case.
