Description

Coin pushing game machine

Technical Field

The invention relates to an amusement machine, in particular to a coin pushing game machine.

Background

Referring to fig. 1, a conventional coin-push game machine 1 is adapted to play a game with a plurality of tokens 20. The coin pushing game 1 comprises a main body 11 surrounding an inner space 110 having a coin outlet 111 at the bottom, an introduction mechanism 12 connected to the main body 11 and adapted to introduce the medal 20 into the inner space 110, a platform 13 disposed in the inner space 110 and adapted to stack the medal 20, and a plurality of operation mechanisms 14 disposed on the platform 13 and adapted to push the medal 20. When the coin pushing game machine 1 is used, the tokens 20 are thrown one by one from the lead-in mechanism 12, a certain number of the tokens 20 are stacked on the platform 13 in advance, the stacked state of the tokens 20 on the platform 13 can be changed by the tokens 20 thrown one by the lead-in mechanism 12, and in accordance with the operation of the fixed mode of the operation mechanism 14, a part of the tokens 20 can be pushed off the platform 13 and output from the coin outlet 111.

However, in the conventional coin-pushing game machine 1, the number of tokens 20 to be inserted from the insertion mechanism 12 and the number of tokens 20 to be pushed off are generally different, and in order to balance the game fairness and the game fun, the number of tokens 20 to be stacked on the platform 13 needs to be considered, so that the number of tokens 20 cannot be grasped exactly, and the stacking state of the tokens 20 on the platform 13 needs to be frequently adjusted. In addition to the above-described collision which is the occurrence of maintenance and adjustment, the tokens 20 are generally circulated in a amusement place, and thus the tokens 20 may be frequently touched in addition to the medal game machine 1, and may become a pathogen transmission medium.

Detailed Description

The present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.

Referring to fig. 2, an embodiment of the present invention is suitable for operation by a plurality of tokens 90, and includes a machine unit 3, an operation unit 4 mounted on the machine unit 3, and a back-end unit 5 linked to the operation unit 4. In the present embodiment, the case where the present embodiment is installed in a casino will be described, and thus the token 90 is a dedicated metal token that is circulated only in the casino.

The machine unit 3 includes a body 31 surrounding an enclosed space 310, a working table 32 disposed in the enclosed space 310, and an interface board 33 disposed at the opposite rear side of the working table 32. The operation table 32 divides the enclosed space 310 into an upper game area 311 and a lower identification area 312, and has an end edge 321 that is spaced apart from the front side of the body 31 to define a drop port 319 between the game area 311 and the identification area 312. In addition to the plane where the game is mainly played, the operation table 32 may be configured with a plurality of dynamic mechanisms related to the game theme, the game mode, or the operation mechanism, such as a roller like a marble table, a mechanical arm of a conventional coin-pushing game, etc., which will not be described in detail later. In response to the game requirement of the machine unit 3, the interface board 33 can be used to display game information such as the number of coins, bonus points, etc., and specifically is located at the rear side of the operation table 32 opposite to the end edge 321, so as to be watched by the player without affecting the game.

The operation unit 4 includes a coin mechanism 41 mounted on the body 31 and adapted to input the tokens, a coin outlet mechanism 42 connected to the coin mechanism 41 in information, a plurality of game coins 43 stored in the coin outlet mechanism 42 and adapted to be output to the enclosed space 310 after the tokens are input into the coin mechanism 41, and an identification module 44 disposed in the identification area 312 and adapted to identify any one of the game coins 43 when the game coins falls from the falling port 319 to the identification area 312, and to transmit a bonus information according to the identification result. Specifically, when a player drops the medals 90 from the coin mechanism 41, the medals 90 do not drop directly to the operation table 32 and play a game, but the medals 43 are output from the coin outlet mechanism 42, and when a certain number of medals 43 have been placed on the operation table 32, a game is played by the medals 43 that have dropped additionally.

Referring to fig. 3, each of the game chips 43 has a rf-sensing chip 431 and a molding material 432 for coating and fixing the rf-sensing chip 431. The rf sensing chip 431 is configured to use Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology, so that the identification module 44 (see fig. 2 or fig. 4) is a device for sensing and reading the rf signal. The tokens 43 each contain a plurality of value information representing different values, specifically, information related to game scores, and the molding material 432 is preferably plastic, which is advantageous for molding to an appropriate size in accordance with game demands.

Referring to fig. 2 and 4, the back-end unit 5 includes a ticket issuing module 51, which is connected to the identifying module 44 and is configured to output at least one corresponding number of tickets 80 according to the prize information transmitted by the identifying module 44, and a circulation mechanism 52, which is disposed in the identifying area 312 and is in communication with the ticket issuing mechanism 42, and is configured to receive the game ticket 43 dropped into the identifying area 312 and return to the ticket issuing mechanism 42.

In this embodiment, after the medals 90 are inserted from the coin mechanism 41, the corresponding number of medals 43 are derived from the coin outlet mechanism 42 according to the conversion rule between the medals 90 and the medals 43 set in advance. Then, the medal 43 is guided into the closed space 310 and then falls onto the table 32 for playing. When any of the medals 43 falls from the falling port 319 to the identification area 312 during the process, the identification module 44 senses the value information represented by the fallen medals 43, thereby generating the bonus information related to the game score. When the ticket issuing module 51 receives the rewarding information, a specific number of lottery tickets 80 corresponding to the game score are output, and the lottery tickets 80 can enable players to replace corresponding rewards according to rules of a casino. In the above operation, since the player only inserts the medal 90 from the slot mechanism 41 after replacing the medal 90, the obtained prize representative is also the lottery ticket 80 instead of the medal 90. Naturally, the chance of adhering infectious agents or pathogenic bacteria to the token 90 is reduced, and hygienic conditions can be significantly optimized for both the player and the maintainer of the present embodiment.

Note that, in addition to the medals 43 set in advance on the operation table 32 in response to fairness of the game, the medal discharging mechanism 42 is intended to store a predetermined number of medals 43 first, and the medals 43 output from the medal discharging mechanism 42 may stay on the operation table 32, and the medals 43 dropped to the circulation mechanism 52 during the game are redirected back to the medal discharging mechanism 42 to be stored for subsequent output. That is, the medal 43 can be continuously circulated in the present embodiment, and the medal 43 is maintained by providing a sufficient number of medals 43, and no additional supplement is required, so that the maintenance frequency of the maintainer is reduced, the medal 43 is not frequently touched in the present embodiment, and the method is helpful for optimizing the sanitary condition.
