Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a game medium pipe line capable of easily connecting a pipe and a bellows pipe and having extremely high connection reliability, and a game medium supply device.SOLUTION: The game medium pipe line is formed by inserting a bellows pipe 40 in which crest parts 40a and trough parts 40b are alternately provided, into a lower side of a pipe 30 through which tokens fallingly pass. The pipe 30 includes: at least two opening parts 31 formed by penetrating trough a peripheral wall of the pipe; a projection part 33 projecting from a lower-side opening end of each opening part 31 to the outer peripheral side of the pipe 30; and a tabular elastic member 50 that is disposed on a horizontal surface 33a formed on an upper-side lateral face of the projection part 33, and has one end which penetrates through the opening part 31 and projects to the inner peripheral side of the pipe 30, where the projecting end comes into contact with at least a trough part 40b of the bellows pipe 40 to support the bellows pipe 40. The elastic member 50 allows upward elastic deformation by a space provided by the opening part 31 and, when the bellows pipe 40 is inserted, and upward elastically deformed to allow passage of the crest parts 40a of the bellows pipe 40.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 11 【課題】配管と蛇腹管を容易に接続することができると共に接続信頼性が極めて高い遊技媒体管路、遊技媒体補給装置を提供すること。【解決手段】メダルが落下して通過する配管30の下側に、山部40aと谷部40bとが交互に設けられた蛇腹管40を挿入してなる遊技媒体管路であって、配管30は、配管の周壁を貫通して形成される少なくとも2つの開口部31と、開口部31の下側の開口端部から配管30の外周側に突設される凸部33と、凸部33の上側の側面に形成される水平面33a上に配置されると共に、開口部31を貫通して配管30の内周側に端部を突出し、突出した端部が蛇腹管40の谷部40bに少なくとも接触して蛇腹管40を支持する平板状の弾性部材50と、を備え、弾性部材50は、開口部31が与える空間により上側に弾性変形を許容されており、蛇腹管40を挿入する際に上側に弾性変形して蛇腹管40の山部40aを通過可能に形成する。【選択図】図11
