2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a prize ball tank for a pachinko machine, for example, those shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 are known. As is well known, the pachinko machines 2 are assembled in a base frame 1 forming a part of the gaming machine island and are provided in a plurality of rows in the island longitudinal direction. The front door frame 3 including the game board surface of the pachinko machine 2 is attached to the base frame 1 so as to be openable and closable, and the prize ball tank 4 is fixed to the back side of the front door frame 3. An alignment gutter 5 that guides the balls while aligning the balls from the prize ball tank 4 is also fixed to the back side of the front door frame 3. The prize ball tank 4 and the alignment gutter 5 are fixed slightly below the upper end of the front door frame 3 on the rear side so as to avoid interference with the upper end 1a of the base frame 1.

However, according to the conventional technique as described above, the prize ball tank 4 is mounted on the pachinko machine base 2.
Since it is fixed to the front door frame 3, the prize ball tank 4 also moves when the front door frame 3 is opened and closed. Therefore, the pachinko balls in the prize ball tank 4 may be spilled. In addition, due to the installation space and weight of the prize ball tank 4, the prize ball tank 4
It was difficult to increase the capacity.

That is, when the capacity of the prize ball tank 4 is increased, the weight is increased, which hinders the opening / closing operation of the front door frame 3 and also has a problem in support strength, and moreover, on the back side of the game board such as the prize winning device. It interferes with other protruding structural parts. Therefore, there is a problem that the capacity of the prize ball tank 4 cannot be increased so much, and if a special prize (so-called fever) occurs during the game, the number of pachinko balls in the prize ball tank 4 becomes insufficient.

According to the award ball tank mounting structure of the present invention, the award ball tank is not the front door frame of the gaming machine, but the base frame located on the back side when the front door frame is closed. Since it is integrally provided on the upper end side, the prize ball tank does not move with the opening and closing of the front door frame, so there is no risk that the balls in the prize ball tank will spill as the front door frame opens and closes. Also, since the prize ball tank is installed on the base frame, it will be supported on the island side, and it will be possible to obtain a strong support strength and increase the capacity of the prize ball tank. By arranging it at a position higher than the technology, it is possible to avoid interference with other structural parts projecting to the back side of the game board such as the winning device.
