When the ball detector is completely set in the installation recess 21, the engaging ridge 22 a formed on the support 22 and the claw 22 c of the knob 22 b are engaged with the grooves 21 a formed on each side of the installation recess 21. The ball detector is locked to the engaging hole 21b, and the ball detector is set and held in a fixed state where it is stopped. In this embodiment, since the ball detector is fitted into the installation recess 21 opened upward, the operation of setting the ball detector in the installation recess 21 is performed by setting the front frame 2 on the holding frame 7 on the holding frame 7. The order of assembling the board 9 and the assembling of the ball tank 13 and the straightening gutter 14 with respect to the back-set board 9 are not limited at all. That is, after mounting the back set member 9 on the holding frame 7 and mounting the ball tank 13 and the rectification gutter 14 on the back set board 9, it is possible to set the ball detector in the installation recess 21. In addition, it is of course possible to set the ball detector in the installation concave portion 21 before attaching the ball tank 13 and the rectifying gutter 14, so that the assembling work process is rationalized and the work time is shortened.

It will be placed. That is, as shown in FIG. 10, the ball sensing member 23 is displaced in a state where the ball receiving portion 24 moves downward due to the ball pressure of the stored ball, and the detection contact portion 28 of the detection switch 27 is pressed to indicate “ball exists ( ON) condition. Therefore, the ball presence signal from the detection switch 27 is input to the hole computer via the ball supply information terminal t. The stored balls flowing out from the ball outlet 13a are stored in the straightening gutter 14 and the delivery path 15 attached to the lower portion, and are sequentially paid out as prize balls or game balls by the operation of the prize ball payout device 16.

Is completely removed from the back-set board 9 while connected. Therefore, when inspecting or repairing the ball detector, the ball sensing member 23 and the detection switch 27 need to be detached and attached individually, and it is necessary to attach and detach the back set panel 9, the ball tank 13, and the rectifying gutter 14. Therefore, the work time can be reduced and the work can be rationalized. Further, when the gaming machine provided with the ball detector of the present embodiment is disposed of as a used gaming machine, the ball detector can be removed from the installation recess 21 together with the wiring h.
