AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing gaming machines, such as pachinko machines, face challenges in ensuring secure and reliable engagement mechanisms for components that allow for smooth operation and disengagement without causing mechanical stress or damage.

Method used

The gaming machine incorporates a first and second engaging body with projections that abut against the assembly when disengaging, and a connecting body that maintains engagement while allowing linear displacement, ensuring secure attachment and smooth disengagement through varying cross-section sizes along the connecting body.

Benefits of technology

This configuration ensures secure engagement and smooth disengagement of components, reducing mechanical stress and enhancing the operational reliability and longevity of the gaming machine.

Abstract

To provide a game machine capable of improving feeding of game balls.SOLUTION: In guidance means H29820 for feeding game balls, a recess H29821a1 is formed in nonparallel with a feeding direction of game balls in a rear part H29821a for forming a wall part of a rear side (a side in a direction of an arrow B) in a shooting route of game balls. When fed game balls swing, reaction force in a direction opposite to a contact direction can be weakened by bringing game balls into contact with the recess H29821a1. Accordingly, continued feeding of swinging game balls by the guidance means H29820 can be suppressed. As a result, game balls can be stably fed to a game area of a game board H13.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1968

Description

Technical Field

[0012] , , Conventional , The device comprises a first means and a second means, and an engaging means configured such that a first engaging body and a second engaging body can engage with the first means and the second means, respectively, wherein at least a portion of the first mounting body disposed on the first means can be interposed between at least a portion of the first means and the first engaging body of the engaging means, and at least a portion of the second mounting body disposed on the second means can be interposed between at least a portion of the second means and the second engaging body of the engaging means. , , , , , ,

[0005] , ,

[0003] , Regarding the means of engagement , , , , ,

[0009] , [Figure 1] , , The first engaging body is provided with a first engaging body side projection configured to project toward a predetermined part of the first assembly, and when the first engaging body is displaced in a direction that disengages it from the first means while the first engaging body and the first means are engaged, at least a part of the first engaging body side projection is configured to abut against the first assembly; the second engaging body is provided with a second engaging body side projection configured to project toward a specific part of the second assembly, and when the second engaging body is displaced in a direction that disengages it from the second means while the second engaging body and the second means are engaged, at least a part of the second engaging body side projection is configured to abut against the second assembly; the engaging means is provided with a connecting body configured to connect the first engaging body and the second engaging body, and when the first engaging body and the first means are engaged and the second engaging body and the second means are engaged In this configuration, if multiple locations on the first engaging body side of the connecting body and other multiple locations on the second engaging body side of the connecting body are severed, the first engaging body is configured to remain engaged with the first means, the second engaging body is configured to remain engaged with the second means, the first engaging body, when disengaged from the first means, is configured to be displaced linearly in one direction relative to the first means, thereby becoming engaged with the first means, the size of the cross-section at each of the multiple locations on the first engaging body side of the connecting body may differ from the size of the cross-section of the connecting body at each portion connected to the first engaging body, and the portion of the connecting body connected to the first engaging body is arranged along the direction of displacement of the first engaging body when disengaging from the first means to the first means. , The problem is that there is , , ,
