Game machine

Abstract

To provide a game machine which can suppress deterioration of security against fraudulent acts on an electronic board.SOLUTION: A game machine includes a plurality of substrates each mounted with a plurality of electronic components, carries out a lottery on the basis of satisfaction of a start condition, and gives a privilege on the basis of a result of the lottery. The plurality of substrates includes a main control board which executes processing related to the lottery, and a plurality of performance boards related to control of multiple pieces of performance means on the basis of a signal from the main control board. A special performance board of the plurality of performance boards is mounted at least with a specific electronic component which controls specific performance means of the multiple pieces of performance means, and a special electronic component electrically connected with the specific electronic component. The special electronic component is arranged adjacently to the specific electronic component with an electronic component non-mountable area on which no electronic component can be mounted being between the special electronic component and the specific electronic component, and has an exterior of a special color different from colors of other electronic components mounted on the special performance board.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 129

Claims

[Claim 1] A gaming machine comprising multiple circuit boards on which multiple electronic components are mounted, which performs a lottery based on the fulfillment of starting conditions, and which grants a prize based on the result of the lottery, The aforementioned plurality of substrates are A main control board that executes the process related to the lottery, The main control board includes a plurality of performance boards related to the control of a plurality of performance means that can operate based on the results of the lottery performed by the main control board, Of the aforementioned multiple performance boards, the special performance board has a green insulating coating formed over almost its entire surface, and multiple electronic components are mounted on it. The plurality of electronic components mounted on the special performance board are, A special integrated circuit component that controls a special performance means among the plurality of performance means, Including multiple discrete components, The aforementioned special integrated circuit component has a rectangular shape in plan view, The aforementioned special integrated circuit component has a black appearance, The plurality of discrete components include a plurality of ordinary discrete components having a black appearance and a plurality of special discrete components having a special color appearance different from that of the ordinary discrete components. Each of the aforementioned plurality of special discrete components has an appearance of the special color that approximates the green insulating coating, and is electrically connected to the special integrated circuit component. At least one of the aforementioned ordinary discrete components and at least two of the aforementioned plurality of special discrete components have a common function and are substantially the same in external size when viewed from above. At least one of the conventional discrete components and at least two of the special discrete components are arranged without any other electronic components being placed between them and an electronic component non-mountable area formed around the special integrated circuit component where electronic components cannot be mounted. Furthermore, at least one of the conventional discrete components and at least two of the special discrete components are arranged in a plan view on the same side of the four sides of the special integrated circuit component. The at least two special discrete components are arranged in close proximity to each other in a plan view. Of the plurality of electronic components mounted on the special performance substrate, at least one of the electronic components other than the special integrated circuit component and the plurality of special discrete components is arranged in a plan view without any other electronic components being sandwiched between it and the electronic component non-mountable area formed around the special integrated circuit component, and its external size in a plan view is substantially the same as any one of the plurality of special discrete components. A gaming machine characterized by the following features.
