A recessed portion 12f is formed, and a step portion 5 is formed in a portion of the other peripheral side plate 12b that is lowered at right angles to the box base 11 side. A plurality of insertion openings 5a are formed in the step portion 5 so as to correspond to the shape, number, and arrangement of connectors 4b of the control board 4 to be described later.

前記段部５は、図１〜図３に示したように、ボックスカバー１２に形成したコネクター開口５ｂと、そのコネクター開口５ｂを内側から塞ぐ合成樹脂製で透明な板状のカバー部材５ｃとで構成され、そのカバー部材５ｃに前記挿通口５ａが設けてある。また、カバー部材５ｃは、外周に係合段部５ｄが設けてあり、この係合段部５ｄにコネクター開口５ｂの周縁が係合する。 As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the stepped portion 5 includes a connector opening 5b formed in the box cover 12, and a transparent plate-like cover member 5c made of synthetic resin that closes the connector opening 5b from the inside. The cover member 5c is provided with the insertion port 5a. Further, the cover member 5c has an engagement step portion 5d on the outer periphery, and the peripheral edge of the connector opening 5b is engaged with the engagement step portion 5d.

このように挿通口５ａをボックスカバー１２とは別体のカバー部材５ｃに設けるようにした基盤ボックス１０は、コネクター４ｂの形状・個数・配置などの変更に対してカバー部材５ｃのみの交換で対応できるため、コストの抑制策として有用性が高い。なお、段落番号００１６にこの点に関するさらに詳細な説明がある。 In this way, the base box 10 in which the insertion port 5a is provided in the cover member 5c separate from the box cover 12 can be changed by replacing only the cover member 5c with respect to changes in the shape, number, arrangement, etc. of the connector 4b. Therefore, it is highly useful as a cost reduction measure. Paragraph number 0016 provides further details regarding this point.

前記制御基盤４は、プリント基板４ａに、内蔵ロム、ＣＰＵなどの電子部品や接続用のコネクター４ｂ…を取り付けてなる。コネクター４ｂは異種または同種のものが複数個あり、それらがプリント基板４ａの一側に並べられている。なお、前記のように全てのコネクター４ｂは、ボックスカバー１２の各挿通口５ａに対応している。 The control board 4 is formed by attaching electronic components such as a built-in ROM and CPU, and connectors 4b for connection to a printed circuit board 4a. There are a plurality of different or similar connectors 4b, which are arranged on one side of the printed circuit board 4a. As described above, all the connectors 4b correspond to the insertion openings 5a of the box cover 12.

次ぎに、上記基盤ボックス１０の組立方法について説明する。先ず、図１に示したようにボックスベース１１のリブ１１ｂの上に制御基盤４を載せる。次ぎに、制御基盤４のプリント基板４ａ上にカバー部材５ｃを被せてコネクター４ｂの周りをカバーする。次ぎに補助側板１１ｃと凹欠部１２ｆを嵌め合わせながらボックスベース１１にボックスカバー１２を被せる。そして、ボックスベース１１の裏側からプリント基板４ａの取付孔４ｃ…を貫通させるようにしてねじ（図示せず）を通し、そのねじをボックスカバー１２側の雌ねじ部（図示せず）に入れて締め付け、必要に応じてボックスベース１１とボックスカバー１２の接合部に封印処理（封印シールの貼付や封印具の装着など）を施す。このときカバー部材５ｃは、図２に示したように外周の係合段部５ｄが、コネクター開口５ｂの周縁とプリント基板４ａで挟まれてロックされている。なお、カバー部材５ｃとコネクター開口５ｂの接合部分は、係合段部５ｄとコネクター開口５ｂの周縁が係合してＬ字状に入り組んでいるから異物が差し込めない。もちろん、このような異物の差込み防止という目的を達成する手段としては、係合段部５ｄとコネクター開口５ｂの接合形態は図示した構造に限定されないのであって、入り組み方を複雑にする程、高い防犯効果が得られる。 Next, a method for assembling the base box 10 will be described. First, as shown in FIG. 1, the control base 4 is placed on the rib 11 b of the box base 11. Next, a cover member 5c is placed on the printed circuit board 4a of the control board 4 to cover the periphery of the connector 4b. Next, the box cover 12 is put on the box base 11 while fitting the auxiliary side plate 11c and the recess 12f. Then, a screw (not shown) is passed through the mounting hole 4c of the printed circuit board 4a from the back side of the box base 11, and the screw is put into a female screw part (not shown) on the box cover 12 side and tightened. If necessary, the joint between the box base 11 and the box cover 12 is subjected to a sealing process (such as applying a seal sticker or attaching a sealing tool). At this time, as shown in FIG. 2, the cover member 5c is locked with the outer peripheral engagement step 5d sandwiched between the peripheral edge of the connector opening 5b and the printed board 4a. It should be noted that the joint portion between the cover member 5c and the connector opening 5b is formed in an L shape by engaging the peripheral edges of the engagement step portion 5d and the connector opening 5b, so that foreign matter cannot be inserted. Of course, as means for achieving the purpose of preventing such foreign object insertion, the joining form of the engaging step portion 5d and the connector opening 5b is not limited to the structure shown in the figure. A crime prevention effect is obtained.

しかして上記基盤ボックス１０は、コネクター４ｂがボックスカバー１２の外部に突出しているため、一々ボックスカバー１２を外さなくとも自由に中継ケーブルＸのコネクターＹを着脱することができる。また、コネクター４ｂ周りのプリント基板４ａがボックスカバー１２の外部に露出されていないから、プリント基板４ａに直接触れることができず、プリント基板４ａに不正のための加工を施す隙を与えない。なお、段部５の大きさ（深さ）を制御基盤４のコネクター４ｂが完全に収まるように設定しておけば、コネクター４ｂが嵩張らず、また、輸送のために基盤ボックス１０を複数個積み重ねてもコネクター４ｂのピンが変形（曲がったり倒れたりする）ようなおそれがない。特に、図示したようにボックスカバー１２の段部５の片側または両側の端部に肩部５０を設けておけば、コネクター４ｂのピンが外部にむき出し状態になっていても変形要因となるような外力を受ける危険度が低下する。また、より好ましくは、図３二点鎖線で示したように段部５の側辺に防護壁５００を突設してコネクター４ｂのピンをガードするようにしておけば、コネクター４ｂの安全対策として万全である。 Thus, since the connector 4b protrudes outside the box cover 12 in the base box 10, the connector Y of the relay cable X can be freely attached and detached without removing the box cover 12 one by one. In addition, since the printed circuit board 4a around the connector 4b is not exposed to the outside of the box cover 12, the printed circuit board 4a cannot be directly touched, and the printed circuit board 4a is not provided with a gap for improper processing. If the size (depth) of the stepped portion 5 is set so that the connector 4b of the control board 4 can be completely accommodated, the connector 4b does not become bulky, and a plurality of board boxes 10 are stacked for transportation. However, there is no fear that the pin of the connector 4b is deformed (bent or falls). In particular, as shown in the figure, if the shoulder portion 50 is provided at one or both ends of the step portion 5 of the box cover 12, even if the pin of the connector 4b is exposed to the outside, it becomes a deformation factor. The risk of receiving external force is reduced. More preferably, as shown in FIG. 3, a protective wall 500 is provided on the side of the step portion 5 to guard the pins of the connector 4b as shown in FIG. It is perfect.

以上本発明を実施の形態により説明したが、もちろん本発明は上記実施形態に限定されるものではない。例えば、実施形態ではコネクター開口５ｂをカバー部材５ｃで塞いで段部５を構成したが、図５に示したように、カバー部材５ｃをボックスカバー１２と一体成形するようにしてもよい。但し、このような図５の構造には次のような不利益が考えられる。すなわち、コネクター４ｂの形状・個数・配置などはゲーム内容に応じて変更される場合があるが、そのような場合にボックスカバー１２に直接挿通口５ａを設けた図５のものではボックスカバー１２の全てを作り直す必要がある。そのため、金型代などのコストが高くなる。それに較べて、実施形態のように「遊技機側に取り付くボックスベースと、そのボックスベースに被せるボックスカバーと、プリント基板に電子部品や接続用のコネクターなどを取り付けた制御基盤とを有する遊技機用基盤ボックスにおいて、ボックスカバーにコネクター開口を形成してそのコネクター開口をカバー部材で塞ぐように構成し、前記カバー部材に制御基盤のコネクターと対応する位置であってコネクターの外形にほぼ合致する形状の挿通口を形成し、その挿通口を介して制御基盤のコネクターをボックスカバーの外部に突出させるようにした基盤ボックス」では、コネクター４ｂの形状・個数・配置などが変更されたとしても、カバー部材５ｃのみの変更で対応できるため金型代などのコストが大幅に圧縮できる。 Although the present invention has been described above by way of the embodiment, the present invention is of course not limited to the above embodiment. For example, in the embodiment, the connector opening 5b is closed with the cover member 5c to form the stepped portion 5, but the cover member 5c may be integrally formed with the box cover 12 as shown in FIG. However, the following disadvantages can be considered in the structure of FIG. That is, the shape, number, arrangement, etc. of the connector 4b may be changed depending on the game contents. In such a case, in the case of FIG. Everything needs to be recreated. For this reason, the cost for molds and the like increases. In comparison, as in the embodiment, “for a gaming machine having a box base attached to the gaming machine side, a box cover that covers the box base, and a control board in which electronic components and connectors for connection are attached to a printed circuit board. In the base box, a connector opening is formed in the box cover and the connector opening is closed with a cover member. The cover member has a shape corresponding to the connector of the control base and substantially matching the outer shape of the connector. In the “base board box in which an insertion port is formed and the control base connector protrudes outside the box cover through the insertion port”, even if the shape, number, arrangement, etc. of the connector 4b are changed, the cover member Since it is possible to cope with the change only by 5c, the cost such as mold cost can be greatly reduced.
