Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Spiel- und/oder Unterhaltungsgerät, insbesondere in Form eines Roulettespielgeräts, mit einem Setzfeld umfassend mehrere Einsatzfelder, die einzeln und/oder gruppenweise mit einem Spieleinsatz eines Spielers und/oder mehrerer Spieler besetzbar sind, sowie einem Ausspielfeld, insbesondere in Form eines Rouletterads, umfassend mehrere Gewinnfelder, von denen eines oder ggf. mehrere mittels eines Gewinnermittlungsmittels auswählbar ist.The present invention relates to a gaming and / or entertainment device, in particular in the form of a roulette game device, with a setting field comprising a plurality of deployment fields, which are individually and / or in groups with a game use a player and / or multiple players and a play field, in particular Form of a roulette wheel, comprising a plurality of profit fields, one or possibly more of which can be selected by means of a profit determination means.
Die
Bei Roulettespielgeräten, die sowohl als mechanische Tischgeräte mit tatsächlich rotierendem Rouletterad oder auch als elektronische Spielautomaten mit Bildschirmdarstellungen des Setzfeldes und des Rouletterades ausgebildet sein können, wird üblicherweise auf dem Setzfeld der Spieleinsatz platziert, beispielsweise dergestalt, dass auf eine bestimmte Zahl, eine bestimmte Zahlengruppe oder auch eine Farbe, nämlich schwarz oder rot gesetzt wird. Hierzu werden die Spieleinsätze bei einem Tischgerät in Form von Jetons auf das Setzfeld gelegt bzw. bei einem elektronischen Roulettespielautomaten mittels Touch-Screen oder anderer geeigneter Eingabemittel auf der Bildschirmdarstellung des Setzfeldes platziert. Sind die Einsätze getätigt, wird auf dem Ausspielfeld das jeweilige Gewinnfeld ermittelt, was bei mechanischen Tischgeräten durch eine in einem Umlaufbecken rotierende Kugel, die auf eines der Gewinnfelder fällt, und bei einem elektronischen Rouletteautomaten durch einen Zufallsgenerator erfolgen kann, mittels dessen sozusagen die umlaufenden Kugel und deren Stehenbleiben virtuell auf einem der Felder nachgebildet werden kann.In roulette game devices, which can be designed both as mechanical table devices with actually rotating roulette wheel or as electronic game machines with screen representations of the setting field and the roulette wheel, the game insert is usually placed on the setting field, for example, such that a certain number, a certain number of groups or also a color, namely black or red is set. For this purpose, the game inserts are placed on a tabletop device in the form of tokens on the setting field or placed on an electronic roulette game machine by means of touch screen or other suitable input means on the screen display of the setting field. If the bets are made, the respective winning field is determined on the play field, which in mechanical table devices by a ball rotating in a circulating ball, which falls on one of the profit fields, and in an electronic Rouletteautomaten can be done by a random generator, by means of which, so to speak, the orbiting ball and its stopping virtually on one of the fields can be simulated.
Bei derartigen Spiel- bzw. Unterhaltungsgeräten, die ein separates Setzfeld für das Tätigen der Einsätze und ein separates Ausspielfeld zur Ermittlung eines Gewinnfelds umfassen, ist das Spiel bislang nur bei erhöhter Aufmerksamkeit mitverfolgbar. Einerseits muss das sich drehende Rouletterad bzw. dessen Bildschirmdarstellung mitverfolgt werden, um die Gewinnzahl zu erfassen. Andererseits ist der Blick auf das Setzfeld zu richten, um - insbesondere bei mehreren gesetzten Feldern - im Kopf zu behalten, welche Setzfelder tatsächlich mit einem Spieleinsatz belegt wurden. Nur durch ständiges Vergleichen der gesetzten Setzfelder mit dem dann ausgespielten Gewinnfeld ermöglicht die Überwachung eines Gewinns und dann auch dessen korrekte Ausbezahlung.In such game or entertainment devices, which include a separate setting field for making the inserts and a separate playout field for determining a winning field, the game is so far only with increased attention to be followed. On the one hand, the rotating roulette wheel or its screen display must be followed in order to record the winning number. On the other hand, it is necessary to look at the setting field in order to keep in mind, in particular in the case of several set fields, which setting fields were actually occupied by a stake. Only by constantly comparing the set pegs with the then played profit field allows the monitoring of a win and then its correct payoff.
Dieses ständige visuelle Überwachen sowohl des Setzfeldes als auch des Ausspielfeldes kann insbesondere bei größeren Spielgeräten, bei denen die beiden Felder nicht gleichzeitig im Auge behalten werden können, auf die Dauer ermüdend sein, da der Blick ständig relativ weit hin und her zu wenden ist.This constant visual monitoring both the setting field and the playing field can be tiring in the long run, especially in larger playground equipment in which the two fields can not be kept in mind at the same time, since the view is always relatively far to turn back and forth.
Hiervon ausgehend liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein verbessertes Spiel- und/oder Unterhaltungsgerät zu schaffen, das Nachteile des Standes der Technik vermeidet und Letzteren in vorteilhafter Weise weiterbildet. Insbesondere soll ein ermüdungsfreies Spielen bei gleichzeitiger kontinuierlicher Überwachung des Spielverlaufes ermöglicht werden.On this basis, the present invention has the object to provide an improved game and / or entertainment device, which avoids the disadvantages of the prior art and further develops the latter in an advantageous manner. In particular, a fatigue-free games while continuous monitoring of the game is to be made possible.

Erfindungsgemäß sind an den Gewinnfeldern des Ausspielfeldes Spieleinsatz-Anzeigemittel zur Markierung der Gewinnfelder vorgesehen, die entsprechend den getätigten Spieleinsätzen Gewinn bringend sind, wobei den Einsatzfeldern eine Erfassungsvorrichtung zur Erfassung der jeweils mit einem Spieleinsatz besetzten Einsatzfelder zugeordnet ist und wobei eine Steuervorrichtung zur Ansteuerung der Spieleinsatz-Anzeigemittel an den Gewinnfeldern in Abhängigkeit der von der Erfassungsvorrichtung erfassten, mit Spieleinsätzen besetzten Einsatzfelder vorgesehen ist. Setzt beispielsweise ein Spieler entsprechende Jetons auf die Einsatzfelder "1", "7" und "13", wird dies von der Erfassungseinrichtung automatisch erfasst. Die Steuervorrichtung steuert in Abhängigkeit eines entsprechenden Signals der Erfassungsvorrichtung die am Rouletterad bzw. dessen Gewinnfelder vorgesehenen Anzeigemittel derart an, dass die Gewinnfelder "1", "7" und "13" mit einer Markierung versehen sind, die dem Spieler auch beim Blick auf das Ausspielfeld zeigt, welche Gewinnfelder Gewinn bringend sind. Dementsprechend muss der Spieler seinen Blick nicht ständig zwischen Setzfeld und Ausspielfeld hin und her wenden. Während ein Spiel läuft, kann er sich gänzlich auf das Ausspielfeld konzentrieren und das Spiel entspannt mitverfolgen.It is therefore proposed, depending on the occupied with stakes field inserts on the play field or Roulette wheel to attach to its profit areas markers, namely those profit fields that bring a profit according to the occupied fields. According to the invention, game insert display means for marking the winning fields are provided on the winning fields of the play field, which are profitable in accordance with the bets made, whereby the game fields are assigned a capture device for registering the respective use fields occupied by a gaming insert, and wherein a control device for activating the game bets Display means is provided on the profit fields in dependence of the detected by the detection device, occupied with stakes mission areas. For example, if a player sets corresponding tokens on the insert fields "1", "7" and "13", this is automatically detected by the detection device. The control device controls depending on a corresponding signal of the detection device provided on Rouletterad or its profit fields display means such that the winning fields "1", "7" and "13" are provided with a marker, the player also looking at the Playing field shows which winning fields are profitable. Accordingly, the player does not have to constantly turn his gaze between setting field and play field back and forth. While a game is running, he can concentrate entirely on the play field and follow the game relaxed.

Gemäß einer anderen vorteilhaften Ausführung der Erfindung kann das Spiel- und/oder Unterhaltungsgerät auch als elektronischer Spielautomat mit zumindest einem Bildschirm ausgebildet sein, auf dem das Setzfeld und das Ausspielfeld in Form von Bildschirmdarstellungen angezeigt werden. Vorteilhafterweise können auch zwei separate Bildschirme vorgesehen sein, von denen einer das Setzfeld und der andere das Ausspielfeld anzeigt. Bei einem solchen elektronischen Bildschirmgerät kann der das Setzfeld darstellende Bildschirm bzw. der entsprechende Bildschirmteil vorteilhafterweise als Touch-Screen-Vorrichtung ausgebildet sein, die ein Besetzen der Einsatzfelder des Setzfeldes mit Spieleinsätzen durch einfaches Berühren der Bildschirmoberfläche mit einem Finger oder dergleichen erlaubt. Vorteilhafterweise ist hierbei die Erfassungsvorrichtung zur Erfassung der mit einem Spieleinsatz besetzten Einsatzfelder in die Touch-Screen-Vorrichtung integriert, wobei die Erfassungsvorrichtung grundsätzlich unterschiedlich ausgebildet sein kann, beispielsweise kann eine kapazitiv arbeitende Erfassungsvorrichtung vorgesehen sein. Die Erfassungsvorrichtung kann jedoch auch optisch oder elektronisch arbeitend ausgebildet sein. Wird auch das Ausspielfeld in Form einer Bildschirmdarstellung ausgeführt, können die Spieleinsatz-Anzeigemittel vorteilhafterweise in den entsprechenden Bildschirm integriert sein.According to another advantageous embodiment of the invention, the gaming and / or entertainment device can also be designed as an electronic slot machine with at least one screen on which the setting field and the playing field are displayed in the form of screen images. Advantageously, two separate screens can also be provided, one of which displays the setting field and the other the playing field. In such an electronic screen device of the setting field performing screen or the corresponding screen part can be advantageously designed as a touch-screen device that allows occupying the fields of use of the setting field with game inserts by simply touching the screen surface with a finger or the like. Advantageously, in this case the detection device is integrated into the touch screen device for detecting the areas occupied by a game insert fields, wherein the detection device may in principle be designed differently, for example, a capacitive sensing device may be provided. However, the detection device may also be formed optically or electronically working. If the play-out field is also executed in the form of a screen display, the game-use display means can advantageously be integrated in the corresponding screen.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung können ggf. auch Mischformen zwischen einem mechanischen Tischgerät und einem elektronisch arbeitenden Bildschirmgerät vorgesehen sein, beispielsweise dergestalt, dass das Gewinnfeld mittels einem "echten", sich drehenden Rouletterad ausgespielt wird, während das Einsatzfeld als Bildschirmdarstellung auf einem Bildschirm angezeigt wird, wobei beispielsweise mehrere Bildschirme vorgesehen werden können, so dass jeder Spieler bzw. jede Spielergruppe ihr eigenes Setzfeld besitzt.In a further development of the invention, mixed forms may also be provided between a mechanical tabletop device and an electronically operating screen device, for example such that the winning field is played by means of a "real" rotating roulette wheel, while the field of use is displayed as a screen image on a screen, wherein, for example, several screens can be provided so that each player or group of players has their own setting field.
Die vorliegende Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand eines bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiels und zugehöriger Zeichnungen näher erläutert. In den Zeichnungen zeigen:
- Fig. 1:
- Eine Draufsicht auf ein Spiel- bzw. Unterhaltungsgerät in Form eines Roulettespielgeräts nach einer vorteilhaften Ausführung der Erfindung, die das Setzfeld sowie das als Rouletterad ausgebildete Ausspielfeld zeigt, wobei auf dem Setzfeld noch keine Einsätze getätigt und dementsprechend am Rouletterad noch keine Markierungen vorgesehen sind,
- Fig. 2:

- eine Draufsicht auf das Roulettespielgerät aus den vorhergehenden Figuren, wobei im Setzfeld mehrere Einsatzfelder mit Spieleinsätzen belegt und dementsprechend die zugehörigen Gewinnfelder mit Markierungen versehen sind.
- Fig. 1:
- A top view of a game or entertainment device in the form of a roulette game machine according to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, showing the setting field and designed as a roulette wheel play field, with no bets placed on the setting field and accordingly no marks are provided on Rouletterad,
- Fig. 2:
- a top view of the roulette game from
Fig. 1 , wherein in the setting field a stake on the field "17" made and accordingly the roulette wheel the winningfield 17 is provided with a marker, the enlarged representations (a) and (b) occupied with the game insert field "17" and the with the Mark marked winningfield show 17, and - 3:
- a plan view of the roulette game machine from the preceding figures, wherein in the setting field several use fields occupied with stakes and accordingly the associated profit fields are provided with markings.
Bei der in den Figuren dargestellten Ausführungsform eines Roulettespielgerätes 1 handelt es sich um ein elektronisches Bildschirmgerät, das beispielsweise ein Standgerät bilden und ein etwa mannshohes, grob gesprochen kastenförmiges Gerätegehäuse umfassen kann, das in seiner oberen Hälfte die in den Figuren dargestellte Anzeigevorrichtung 18 aufweist und in seinem Inneren eine elektronische Steuervorrichtung 15 beispielsweise mit einem Mikroprozessor und einem Zufallsgenerator beherbergt. Es versteht sich jedoch, dass grundsätzlich auch andere Gerätekonfigurationen, beispielsweise Wandgeräte, aber auch mechanisch ausgebildete Tischgeräte Verwendung finden können.In the embodiment of a
Die Anzeigevorrichtung 18 des in den Figuren dargestellten Roulettespielgeräts 1 umfasst dabei einen großflächigen Bildschirm 16, auf dem ein Setzfeld 4 sowie ein Ausspielfeld 8 als Bildschirmdarstellungen angezeigt und von der Steuervorrichtung 15 her animiert werden. Anstelle eines beide Felder darstellenden gemeinsamen Bildschirms 16 könnten auch zwei separate Bildschirme 16 und 17 vorgesehen sein, von denen der eine das genannte Setzfeld 4 und der andere das genannte Ausspielfeld 8 anzeigt, wobei in diesem Falle die beiden Bildschirme stumpfwinklig zueinander geneigt sein könnten, um die Sicht auf die beiden Felder zu verbessern.The
Das genannte Setzfeld 4 umfasst dabei eine Vielzahl von Einsatzfeldern 5, die bei Roulettespielgeräten in an sich bekannter Weise mit den Ziffern 0 bis 36 gekennzeichnet sind, wobei zusätzliche Gruppensetzfelder vorgesehen sind, mittels derer beispielsweise alle geraden oder alle ungerade oder alle roten bzw. schwarzen Einsatzfelder etc. in vereinfachter Weise mit Spieleinsätzen belegt werden können.The said
Der Bildschirm 16 ist dabei vorteilhafterweise als Touch-Screen-Vorrichtung ausgebildet, so dass durch einfaches Berühren der einzelnen Einsatzfelder 5 Spieleinsätze 6 auf einem jeweiligen Einsatzfeld 5 platziert werden können. Vorteilhafterweise ist der Touch-Screen-Vorrichtung hierbei eine Erfassungsvorrichtung 14 zugeordnet, die beispielsweise induktiv oder kapazitiv arbeiten kann und unter der Bildschirmoberfläche angeordnet ist. Mittels dieser Erfassungsvorrichtung 14 wird erfasst, ob und wenn ja auf welchem Einsatzfeld 5 ein Spieleinsatz 6 platziert wird. Die Höhe des jeweiligen Spieleinsatzes 6 kann dabei grundsätzlich in verschiedener Weise bestimmt werden, beispielsweise dadurch, dass zuvor ein die Spieleinsatzhöhe charakterisierendes Feld berührt und danach das jeweilige Einsatzfeld 5 berührt wird. Alternativ kann beispielsweise auch durch mehrmaliges Berühren desselben Einsatzfeldes 5 der darauf platzierte Einsatz erhöht werden.The
Die die Bildschirmdarstellung des Setzfeldes 4 ansteuernde Steuervorrichtung 15 kann vorteilhafterweise einen auf dem Setzfeld 4 platzierten Spieleinsatz 6 in Form entsprechender Jetons 7 anzeigen, so wie dies in
Zusätzlich verändert die Steuervorrichtung 15 auch die Bildschirmdarstellung des Ausspielfeldes 8, nachdem von der Erfassungsvorrichtung 14 ein Spieleinsatz 6 auf einem Einsatzfeld 5 erfasst wurde. In Abhängigkeit eines Signals der Erfassungsvorrichtung 14 steuert die Steuervorrichtung 15 dem Ausspielfeld 8 zugeordnete Spieleinsatz-Anzeigemittel 12 derart an, dass Letztere im Ausspielfeld 8 eine Markierung 13 anzeigen, und zwar auf dem entsprechenden, ebenfalls mit der Nr. "17" gekennzeichneten Gewinnfeld 9, welches mit dem entsprechenden Einsatzfeld 5 im Setzfeld 4 korrespondiert. Wie
Vorteilhafterweise sind die Steuervorrichtung 15, die Erfassungsvorrichtung 14 sowie die Spieleinsatz-Anzeigemittel 12 dabei derart ausgebildet, dass die Spieleinsätze 6 in Form der Jetons 7 dabei sozusagen über das Setzfeld 4 hinweg von einem Einsatzfeld 5 zu einem anderen Einsatzfeld 5 hin und her geschoben werden können, insbesondere dadurch, dass mit einem Finger über die Touch-Screen-Vorrichtung gefahren wird. Dabei wird von der Erfassungsvorrichtung 14 jeweils erfasst, in welchem Einsatzfeld sich der Spieleinsatz gerade befindet. Hierzu im Wesentlichen zeitparallel zeigen die Anzeigemittel 12 mittels entsprechender Markierungen 13 auf dem Ausspielfeld 8 in Form des Rouletterades an, in welchem Bereich des Ausspielfeldes, d.h. des Rouletterades sich der platzierte Spieleinsatz befindet. Hierzu parallel wird auch im Setzfeld 4 angezeigt, welches Einsatzfeld 5 sozusagen mit dem Finger getroffen wurde, was in der gezeichneten Ausführung durch einen das jeweilige Einsatzfeld 5 hervorhebenden Rahmen realisiert ist. Erst wenn der die Touch-Screen-Vorrichtung berührende Finger zum Stillstand gekommen ist und/oder von der Touch-Screen weggenommen wird, ist das jeweilige Einsatzfeld 5 tatsächlich mit einem Spieleinsatz 6 belegt. Die entsprechende Markierung 13 im Ausspielfeld 8 verbleibt an dem entsprechenden Gewinnfeld 9 des Rouletterades. Die Hervorhebung des Einsatzfeldes 5 im Setzfeld 4 kann hingegen verschwinden. Dort verbleibt die Darstellung des Jetons 7.Advantageously, the
Diese Verschiebbarkeit eines Spieleinsatzes über das Setzfeld 4 hinweg und die hierzu im Wesentlichen zeitparallel Anzeige am Rouletterad ermöglicht es in besonders einfacher Weise, auch ohne detaillierte Kenntnis der Aufteilung des Rouletterads einen bestimmten Bereich bzw. einen bestimmten Quadranten des Rouletterads zu bespielen, was den Setzvorgang gerade für nicht professionelle Spiele wesentlich vereinfacht. Zum anderen kann auch während des danach erfolgenden Ausspielens des Gewinns für einen Spieler wesentlich einfacher überwacht werden, ob das ausgespielte Gewinnfeld 9 ein für ihn Gewinn bringendes oder ein für ihn nicht Gewinn bringendes Feld ist.This displaceability of a game insert on the setting
