DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a lending machine interposed between gaming machines such as a pachinko machine and a slot machine, and an IC coin reader / writer incorporated in the lending machine, and particularly as a data recording medium. Lending machine and IC using a coin type ID tag (hereinafter referred to as IC coin)
About coin reader writer.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, islands provided in game stores include:
A plurality of pachinko machines and slot machines are provided side by side as gaming machines. Gaming media such as pachinko balls and medals used in these gaming machines are rented out from inter-table lending machines provided between the gaming machines. A player inserts a prepaid card into a prepaid card insertion slot provided in a lending machine, borrows a predetermined amount of game media within a range of money recorded on the prepaid card, and plays the gaming machine. The prepaid card is constituted by a magnetic card, and the magnetic stripe portion magnetically records game medium data such as money data, remaining number data, ID number, and date of issue of the game medium.

However, a prepaid card inserted from a prepaid card insertion slot of a prepaid card reader has a prepaid card even when predetermined money data is recorded on the prepaid card or when the recorded money data becomes zero. The prepaid card had to be ejected from the card slot and removed. For this reason, there has been a problem that the prepaid card in which the recorded monetary data has become zero is discarded in a trash box or the like, and there is a problem that the card is brought back, forged and reused.

Therefore, the present inventor can prevent forgery by using an IC card as a data recording medium instead of a prepaid card (magnetic card), and easily collect unnecessary IC cards. Japanese Patent Application No. Hei 11-26 discloses an IC card device that can be reused.
No. 9988.

[0005] The outline of the configuration of such an IC card device will be described as follows: "A storage unit capable of storing a plurality of IC cards,
An IC card insertion / removal slot, and a read / write device for writing predetermined game media data to the IC card and reading the game media data written to the IC card, and when the game media data remains, The game media data is written to the IC card by the read / write device and can be discharged from the insertion slot. When the game media data does not remain, the IC card is initialized by the read / write device and stored in the storage section. Collecting ".

[0006]

In the above-described IC card device (card reader), the IC card is EEPR
It has a built-in OM and has a function of being able to communicate with a read / write device in a non-contact manner, and is suitable for its collection and reuse.

[0007] However, since the IC card has a predetermined card shape, the mechanical transport mechanism in the IC card device is complicated. For example, the transport mechanism between the insertion slot of the IC card and the read / write device, the transport mechanism between the read / write device and the storage unit, and the like have been complicated.

Further, the IC card can be configured to be moved in the horizontal direction in the IC card device by using such a transport mechanism. However, the IC card is transported in the inter-table lending machine in which the IC card device is stored. Or, it was difficult to convey to the collection device outside the lending machine between stands.

Accordingly, the present inventors have conducted intensive studies and as a result, have recently developed a coin-type ID instead of an IC card.
By using a tag (hereinafter referred to as an IC coin), an IC coin as a data recording medium can be easily transported, and a system including a low-cost lending machine has been developed.

[0010]

Here, when the game medium data (remaining frequency) runs out, the IC coin 40 is read from the read / write device 30.
Is initialized, the stopper 33 is released, and IC
The coin is dropped into the coin discharge passage 23. On the other hand, when the game is to be ended although the game medium data remains, the coin payout button 5 is pressed by the player. Then, the shaft 24A of the solenoid 24 is raised again, and the IC coin sorting / conveying tool 25 is lowered toward the IC coin payout port 19. Thereby, the IC coin 40 rolls toward the IC coin payout port 19, and the player can take out the IC coin 40 from the IC coin payout port 19.

When the player again uses the IC coin in which the above-mentioned game medium data remains, the IC coin 40 is inserted into the IC coin payout slot 19. And
When the play start button is pressed in the same manner as described above, the shaft 24A of the solenoid 24 is lowered, and the IC coin sorting / conveying tool 25 is lowered toward the IC coin discharge passage 23. Thereby, the IC coin 40 rolls toward the IC coin discharge passage 23 and is supported by the stopper 33.
Then, the read / write device 30 reads the game medium data (remaining number), and the player can enjoy the game with the game medium corresponding to the remaining number.

Although the invention made by the present inventor has been specifically described based on the embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and may be made without departing from the gist of the invention. Needless to say, it can be changed. For example, the above-mentioned IC coin has a so-called ID
Tags are also included.
