Therefore, the right generating means 63 changes the game state after the right is generated and the profit state according to the type of the stop symbol of the change of the second symbol display means 19.

It should be noted that the symbol starting means 12, each winning means 13-16
When a game ball wins, the payout means (not shown) pays out a specified number of game balls as a prize ball for each win.

Next, the operation of the above-mentioned ball game machine will be described. In the game, when the firing handle 8 of the firing means 7 is operated, the game balls in the upper plate 5 are supplied one by one to the firing position of the firing rail in conjunction with the firing operation of the firing means 7,
The launching means 7 hits the game balls and sequentially launches them along the guide rails 9 to the upper side of the game board 4.

The game balls fired on the upper side of the game board 4 fall downward along the board surface of the game board 4. At this time, when the game ball enters the symbol starting means 12, three symbols of the first symbol display means 18 fluctuate for a predetermined time under the control of the first symbol fluctuation processing means 54, and the stopped symbols after the fluctuation are subjected to random number processing. The determined symbol is displayed.

At the time of the fluctuation processing by the first symbol fluctuation processing means 54, if the extracted random number value is a hit random number value, three stop symbols of the first symbol display means 18 are, for example, "7.7.
The winning symbol "7" is displayed, and the opening / closing control means 55 is operated to open the opening / closing plate 27 of the specific winning means 13 for a predetermined time. Then, when the game ball stops at the stopping portion 38 while the opening / closing plate 27 is open, when the opening / closing plate 27 is closed, the game ball of the stopping portion 38 is guided to the pre-stage sorting means 28 side through the specific area 37. ,
It enters the holding portion 48a of the rotating body 48 of the pre-stage sorting means 28.

On the other hand, when the game ball passes through the specific area 37,
The determination ball detection switch 31 detects the game ball, and performs the first required condition determination operation as follows. That is, the first condition symbol control means 57 operates under the condition that the determination operation detection switch 31 detects a game ball, and the first condition symbol 20 on the left side of the second symbol display means 19 fluctuates for a predetermined time, and After the time has changed, the stopped symbol displays the symbol designated by the random number process, that is, either "7" or "3".

If the first condition symbol 20 is "7", the first
The distribution control means 59 operates to rotate the rotating body 48 of the front-stage distribution means 28 in the direction indicated by the arrow a, and distributes the game ball to the rear-stage distribution means 29.

Displays the symbol designated by the random number processing, that is, either "7" or "3".

If the second condition symbol 21 is "7", the second condition
The distribution control means 60 operates to rotate the rotating body 49 of the post-stage distribution means 29 in the direction indicated by the arrow b, and distributes the game ball to the guidance passage 41. When the second condition symbol 21 is “3”,
The rotating body 49 of the rear-stage sorting means 29 rotates in the direction opposite to the arrow b, and distributes the game ball to the guidance passage 42.

The game balls distributed to the respective guide paths 41 and 42 move to the back side of the game board 4 via the guide paths 41 and 42. Then, the right generation detecting switches 80 and 81 detect the game balls passing through the guiding passages 41 and 42, and the right generation means
63 is activated to generate certain rights in favor of the player.

If the combination of the first condition symbol 20 and the second condition symbol 21 of the second symbol display means 19 is "7" and "7" or "7" and "3", the symbol type Judgment means 62
Finally determines the satisfaction of the necessary conditions for the right generation by the establishment of the combination. In any combination, the right generating means 63 is activated by the right generation detecting switches 80 and 81 detecting the game ball, and a right state advantageous to the player is generated. In the combination of "7" and "7", the maximum number of operations of the variable winning means 16 is 16 times, and in the combination of "7" and "3", the maximum number of operations is 10 times.

During the right generation by the right generation means 63, the third
When a game ball wins in the seed starting means 14, the variable winning means 16 is opened for each winning and the variable winning means 16 closes when a predetermined time has elapsed or when a predetermined number of game balls have won. . For this reason, a large number of game balls can be easily won in the variable winning means 16, and the player can receive a great profit in accordance with the maximum number of times the variable winning means 16 is operated.

In the first necessary condition determining operation,
When the first condition symbol 20 of the second symbol display means 19 is "3", the rotating body 48 of the first-stage sorting means 28 rotates in the direction indicated by the arrow a, and distributes the game ball to the second-stage sorting means 30. .
For this reason, the game ball is distributed to the latter stage through the guide passage 40.
It moves to 30, and enters the holding portion 50a of the rotating body 50.

When the game ball moves from the guide passage 40 to the rear-stage sorting means 30, the detection switch 33 for judging operation is provided.
Detects the game ball, and performs the second necessary condition determination operation in the same manner. That is, the second condition symbol control means 58 is provided on condition that the determination operation detection switch 33 detects a game ball.
Works, and the second condition symbol 21 on the right side of the second symbol display means 19
Fluctuates for a predetermined time, and after the fluctuation for a predetermined time, a symbol whose stop is designated by random number processing, ie, “7” or “3”
Is displayed.

When the second condition symbol 21 is “3”, the rotating body 50 of the rear-stage sorting means 30 rotates in the direction indicated by the arrow c and distributes the game ball to the guide passage 43. In addition, the second condition pattern 21
Is "7", the rotating body 50 of the rear-stage sorting means 30 rotates in the direction opposite to the arrow c, and distributes the game ball to the guidance passage 44.

The game balls distributed to the respective guide paths 43, 44 move to the back side of the game board 4 via the guide paths 43, 44. Then, the right generation detecting switches 81 and 82 detect the game balls passing through the guiding passages 43 and 44, and the right generation means 63 is operated in the same manner as described above to generate a predetermined right advantageous to the player. I do.

If the combination of the first condition symbol 20 and the second condition symbol 21 of the second symbol display means 19 becomes "3" and "3" or "3" and "7", the symbol type Judgment means 62
Finally determines the satisfaction of the necessary conditions for the right generation by the establishment of the combination. In any combination, the right generating means 63 is activated to generate an advantageous right state for the player. However, in the combination of "3" and "3", the maximum number of times of operation of the variable winning means 16 is eight. In the combination of “3” and “7”, the maximum number of operations is four.

If a game ball wins in the third type starting means 14 during the right generation by the right generating means 63 as described above, the variable winning means 16 is opened for each winning and the predetermined time elapses. Or when a predetermined number of game balls are won, the variable winning means 16 is closed. For this reason, the player can receive a return of profit according to the maximum number of times the variable winning means 16 is operated.

As described above, the right generation condition judging means 56
