BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a payout status display device for informing a gaming machine user of past and present payout statuses of a gaming machine.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Pachinko gaming machines, spinning drum gaming machines, arrange-ball gaming machines and ball-and-gaming gaming machines (collectively referred to as gaming machines) have been loved and enjoyed by many people. The biggest purpose for lovers to play on a game machine is to win many prizes by winning a prize and to enjoy their satisfaction. Therefore, choose a gaming machine with a high winning rate,
Choosing a low game console has a great influence on whether or not you enjoy playing.

For this reason, enthusiasts carefully select a game table when starting a game, and predict the future winning situation based on changes in the game table from the past to the present, the winning rate, the winning condition, and the like. However, it tends to be enjoyed as a game whether or not the prediction result is correct.

In order to meet the demands of such lovers,
Conventionally, the following devices have been proposed. That is, in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 54-78234, a device for displaying the number of balls discharged as prize balls at the present time is disclosed. In Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 58-43489, prizes up to the stop are given. A device that displays the number of balls that can be ejected (total number of hits) is also available in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 59-114182.
The issue proposes a device that displays the number of "safe balls,""outballs," and "balls out" at the present time. Furthermore, in Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 55-9231, the number of payout balls at the present time is displayed by different indicator lights for each quantity rank for the purpose of grasping the operation status of the pachinko machine, not for displaying to the player. What has been done is proposed.

[0005]

However, these conventional display devices only provide the status of the payout at the present time, and provide a detailed transition of the status of the payout from the past to the present. Was not. Therefore, the winning rate from the past to the present (the number of payouts with respect to the number of game balls thrown), the transition of the winning condition (whether the winning rate is increasing or decreasing, or whether the winning rate has temporarily increased) , Is the winning rate high on average, etc.)
For example, the information about the past payout situation of the gaming table, which is necessary for enthusiasts to predict the tendency of the future gaming situation, cannot be obtained, and it can be a sufficient judgment material when selecting the gaming table. There wasn't. In this way, in the conventional gaming machine, since information about the payout status from the past to the present, which is necessary for selecting the gaming machine, cannot be sufficiently obtained, the gaming machine's performance is predicted while predicting the future payout status. I couldn't make a choice, and I couldn't make the most of the game.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and provides game machine enthusiasts with sufficient information regarding the payout situation from the past to the present when selecting a game table. By predicting the future payout status, etc., and making it possible to select a game table that is easy to win and has a high winning rate, the game situation in selecting a game machine is more enjoyable The purpose is to provide a display device.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the payout status display device for a gaming machine of the present invention counts the gaming table and the number of gaming balls thrown from the slot of this gaming table. Insertion detector, a payout detector that counts the number of game balls paid out from the payout opening of the gaming table, a comparator that compares the outputs from the input detector and the payout detector, and the comparator It is composed of a display that displays changes in the winning rate and winning rate from the past to the present based on the output from.

[0008]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a front view of an embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a spinning drum game machine (commonly called a pachi-slot machine), and FIG. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 10 denotes a gaming machine of a spinning-roller gaming machine, the basic configuration of which is the same as that of a conventional one.

On the front of the game table 10, there are provided a medal insertion slot 11, a winning medal payout slot 12, a rotating window 13, a start lever 14a, a stop button 14b and the like. In addition, inside the game table 10, the inserted medal detector 15 that counts the number of medals inserted from the medal insertion slot 11
(Although not shown in FIG. 1, it is usually provided in the vicinity of the back side of the slot 11.) The payout medal detector 1 for counting the number of medals paid out from the medal payout opening 12
6 (not shown in FIG. 1, but usually provided in a medal hopper provided inside the game table), a rotating drum (not shown), a control unit (not shown) including a CPU, and the like. It is provided.

Reference numeral 21 denotes a display, which is mounted on the front of the game table 10 at a relatively easy-to-see position. This display 21
Forms a payout status display device with the input medal detector 15, the payout medal detector 16, and the comparator 22 that compares the signal from the input medal detector 15 with the signal from the payout medal detector 16. There is. The display 21 is a comparator 22.
By displaying the output (the ratio of the number of medals paid out to the number of medals inserted) from time to time as numerical data or graph data, for example, from several days ago to today or from the opening of the day to the present The winning rate, changes in winning condition, etc. are displayed as the past payout status.

The comparator 22 is usually a control unit composed of the above-mentioned CPU, but it is of course possible to provide it separately.

As described above, according to the above embodiment,
By displaying the winning rate from the past to the present and the transition of the winning condition on the display 21, the lovers are provided with the most necessary information for predicting the future payout situation. Therefore, enthusiasts of spinning-roller game machines can use this indicator 2
By referring to the information displayed in No. 1, it is possible to predict the tendency of the payout situation in the future and select the game table to play while enjoying the game. In the specification, “balls” and “gaming balls” are generic terms including spherical and medal-shaped ones.

The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, but includes the following modifications, for example. The present invention is applied to pachinko game machines, arrange ball game machines, ball game machines, etc. A detector that counts the number of game balls inserted and a detector that counts the number of payouts are provided independently for the display device.
