With reference to Figure 12 the numeral of control module 91 execution being selected recreation describes.It is that condition is carried out to detect game money M by starting detector 14 that numeral is selected recreation.Control module 91 at first carries out notch (slot) and selects in step S1.Three patterns utilize random number etc. to decide respectively.At step S2, control module 91 judges whether result that notch is selected forms the prize-winning combination of " ball ".Under the situation of the prize-winning combination that forms " ball ", control module 91 enters step S3 and to the 5 indication supply ball B1 of ball supply department, finishes current processing.Under the situation that prize-winning of formation " ball " is made up in step S2, control module 91 enters step S4, judges whether that the prize-winning of formation " directly award is played " is made up.Under the situation of the prize-winning combination that forms " directly award recreation ", control module 91 enters step S5 and indication begins to award recreation at award game area A1, finishes current processing.Under the situation of the prize-winning combination of formation in step S4 " directly award recreation ", in next step S6, the result that control module 91 carries out selecting with notch handles accordingly.Under all inchoate situation of prize-winning combination of any regulation, control module 91 is done nothing and is finished current processing.Under the situation of the prize-winning combination that forms regulation, control module 91 changes game content corresponding to elected prize-winning combination, and finishes current processing.

According to above processing, the result that selects who selects recreation based on numeral enters into the award recreation.Because award recreation is positioned as numeral and selects privilege in the recreation, so concerning the player, bring motivation to make it hanker after the amusement that numeral is selected recreation to it.

With reference to Figure 13, the game of chance that carries out about control module 91 describes.Game of chance is that condition is carried out with following situation: this condition is that the free fall sensor by ball carrying mechanism 22 detects ball B2, and ball B2 is transported to the chance zone CF of portion from awarding the regional BF of portion.Control module 91 carries out wheel disc and selects in step S11.Ball B2 selects hole 82 at any and falls and detect by selecting hole sensor 82a.Then, control module 91 carries out the corresponding processing of result selected with wheel disc in step S12, and finishes current processing.Control module 91 changes game content based on the setting of selecting hole sensor 82a that is detected.As the example of getting the winning number in a bond, can make the player entertain high prize expectation select recreation or the expenditure of game money M.In addition, the recreation that the player of cell S T can participate in of also can all standing at center cell CN.

According to above processing, in the award recreation, beginning and the different game of chance of award recreation.Game of chance is positioned as the privilege in the award recreation, and the chance of further winning a prize is provided to the player.Thus, for the player, bring motivation to make it hanker after awarding the amusement of recreation to it.

Secondly, with reference to Figure 14 the prize-winning of award recreation and game of chance is described at interval.Figure 14 be two recreation of pattern ground expression prize-winning at interval and the figure of the relation of prize volume.In award recreation, contact with buffer 42 by ball B2 and to get the winning number in a bond and the player is produced prize.Because buffer 42 flicks the ball B2 of contact,, contact with buffer 42 repeatedly simultaneously so ball B2 can move on award recreation card 41.Therefore, the prize-winning interval Pn that gets the winning number in a bond from the next time of getting the winning number in a bond is little.Prize volume N also can be smaller.That is,, can when suppressing prize, improve the player and improve the interest of recreation continuing the expectation of getting the winning number in a bond by repeatedly producing few volume prize.

In game of chance, behind the game of chance card 81 upslide goal B2, until selecting till selecting hole 82 and falling is needed selects time Lm Pn is long at interval than the prize-winning in the award recreation.Prize-winning volume M is also big than the prize-winning volume N in the award recreation.Thus, in the award recreation, provide recreation expansion rapidly, on the other hand, in game of chance, select slowly.Thus, recreation launches not can be dull and the player can be attracted in the recreation, can improve the interest of recreation.

Secondly, with reference to Fig. 4 and Fig. 8, the action of outside blocker 61 is described.Outside blocker 61 works from the discharge guiding mechanism that outlet 63a discharges as adjusting ball B2, and the discharge controlling organization of control module 91 discharge easness of control ball B2 as making outside blocker 61 actions works.When ball B2 contacted with barrier plate 63, this ball B2 was blocked plate 63 and rebounds, and A1 proceeds the award recreation in the award game area.On the other hand, barrier plate 63 detects the contact of ball B2 and output signal by block sensor.Based on this output signal, solenoid 64 actions drive barrier plate 63 and make its ball all-moving surface disappearance with respect to the regional BF of portion of award.The part of barrier plate 63 disappearances becomes and can pass through, and when ball B2 arrived once more, this ball B2 was discharged to exterior domain A2.A plurality of barrier plates 63 can move respectively.Along with barrier plate 63 disappearances, in award game area A1, continue recreation and become difficult.

The appearance number of the barrier plate 63 in when beginning award recreation also can determine according to the result that numeral is selected recreation.For example, control module 91 also can be controlled outside blocker 61, when making when common state when award recreation beginning two barrier plates 63 is occurred, and make 63 appearance of four barrier plates when the probability change of very high setting winning probability.The appearance number of the barrier plate 63 when beginning by changing the award recreation can be controlled at the winning probability in the award recreation.In addition, control module 91 also can be controlled outside blocker 61, so that the frequency of exposure of the ball B2 before barrier plate 63 disappearance is for repeatedly.Because as long as pass through moving of barrier plate 63 stymy B2, ball B2 just uprises at the probability that exists of award recreation card 41, so the chance of getting the winning number in a bond increase.Except the restriction frequency of exposure, control module 91 also can be set at certain hour by the time of occurrence with barrier plate 63 and be controlled at the winning probability of awarding in the recreation.Like this, owing to can change at the winning probability of awarding in playing by the Conditions of outside blocker 61, so can increase the lucky property of recreation, thus the interest of recreation can be improved.In addition, even make the rate of selecting under situation about there are differences on each game machine G in difference owing to the element precision that constitutes game machine G, owing to also can control the discharge easness of ball B2 as described above with control module 91, so can realize the adjustment of probability of selection.

Secondly, the work of buffer 42 is described with reference to Fig. 4 and Fig. 6.When ball B2 contacts with buffer 42 and ball B2 when entering between carriage 52 and the head board 54, push carriage 52 to below.Because bar 51 tilts at ball B2 approach axis, and the contact of bar 51 and control stick 58 moves, so control stick 58 is pushed control stick central portion 58a to bar 51, and a part of strain of arm 58b, detected portion 58c moves downwards.By detect the displacement of detected portion 58c with buffer sensor 59, detect the situation that ball B2 contacts with buffer 42 thus.Since with the contact of bar 51 ends be control stick central portion 58a for bowl (す り ?) shape, so can tackle ball B2 from the contact of omnirange with respect to buffer 42, no matter can move downwards from the detected portion 58c of which directional control bar 58.Like this, interlock makes solenoid 55 energisings when detecting ball B2 and contact with buffer 42, and rod 56 unshakable in one's determination is attracted to the below.And when rod 56 unshakable in one's determination was attracted to the below, the head board 54 that is fixed on excellent 56 upper ends unshakable in one's determination moved to lower slider, and the inclined-plane of the ball B2 that enters by the periphery of head board 54 is pushed out and flown to the outside by bullet.When ball B2 by At time of eject, carriage 52, bar 51, control stick 58 return to original position, buffer sensor 59 does not detect the displacement of detected portion 58c, the energising of solenoid 55 is disengaged, rod 56 unshakable in one's determination turns back to original position under the effect of the restoring force of spring 57, head board 54 upwards slides mobile and returns to original position thus.

When detecting the contact of ball B2 by buffer sensor 59, control module 91 gives game money supply department 4 indication supply game money M.Figure 15 is the stereogram of game money supply department 4.Game money supply department 4 is arranged on and inserts coins between regional PF of portion and the regional BF of portion of award.That is, when the player observes the regional BF of portion of award, game money supply department 4 is set in the position that comes into view.Therefore, when game money M when funnel 4a is paid, game money M shows that in the mode that descends the player game money M is paid at the moment, and through game money load bearing component 4b game money M is fed on the platform 7.The expenditure that can show thus, game money M effectively for the player.Thus, can improve the interest of recreation.

The present invention is not limited only to above-mentioned mode, can implement by variety of way.For example, in the manner,, be not limited only to this though be to utilize the physical property of ball B2 to move to carry out in the recreation of center cell CN.For example, the recreation at center cell CN also can be to select recreation by the numeral of demonstrations such as LCD device.As long as the prize-winning of award recreation and game of chance is identical with the manner at interval, even be not that the physical property recreation is also passable.In addition, also any of award recreation or game of chance can be selected recreation as numeral, another is selected recreation as physical property.

The ball that utilizes at the regional BF of portion of award is not defined as identical ball with the ball that utilizes at the chance zone CF of portion.For example, also can utilize different types of ball in each regional portion.Also can be by utilizing a plurality of quality, the so different ball of characteristic of friction counting, the action of ball is changed.In addition, be not limited only to ball, for example, also can utilize game money M.Also can utilize ellipsoid or polyhedral object.

The game of chance that carries out at the chance zone CF of portion is not limited only to roulette.The card that game of chance card 81 is not limited only to rotate, for example, card also can be out of shape in the mode of fluctuation, and perhaps card also can be swung.Even under these circumstances, ball B2 also can roll in card, owing to can not predict which ball B2 select the hole and fall at, so the player can be attracted in the recreation.In addition, a plurality of holes of selecting also can open and close.Can not predict that more which selects the hole at falls, and can improve the interest of recreation.
