Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a game management system in a game room such as a pachinko machine or a slot machine, and a game lending medium used for the system.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a game arcade of this type, for example, taking a pachinko machine as an example, in a cash machine, a money machine (a banknote or a coin) is inserted into a pachinko ball lending machine adjacent to the gaming machine, and the pachinko ball is inserted. On the other hand, in a so-called CR machine, a money card (banknote or coin) is inserted into a credit card lending machine installed in the hall, a credit card is purchased, and this is supplied to the CR machine. Insert, buy pachinko balls and supply them to the launch unit to play games. In the old type of system, pachinko balls are purchased by lending money to a pachinko ball lending machine in the hall, and the pachinko balls are brought into the upper tray to supply the pachinko balls to the firing unit to play a game.

[0003] The slot machine is basically the same system, except that the pachinko ball as a game medium becomes a medal.

[0004] On the other hand, regarding the settlement, pachinko balls are put into a settlement machine such as a so-called jet counter, and the number of the balls is recorded at the jet counter, and a receipt is rented out.
The player takes the receipt to the hall counter and exchanges it for a prize.

[0005]

However, the receipt rented out at the jet counter records the number of balls using a bar code or the like.
There is a risk of fraudulent intervention to exchange for prizes.

For this reason, the hall processes that the receipt can be exchanged for a prize only on the day, but the player wants to play the game on another day using the remaining ball. And can not meet the request. Originally, if the system satisfies this demand, the player will return to the hall to play the game again, leading to stabilization of the hall management.

[0007] There is also a system in which the number of prize balls is recorded on a magnetic card at the time of settlement by a jet counter, and the number of prize balls can be taken to the counter of the hall at a later date, not on the day, and exchanged for prizes. However, the magnetic card is exchanged for a prize or brought to a cash exchange, and the game cannot be played with the magnetic card.

On the other hand, in recent years, it has become possible to acquire a large amount of money in one game, so that counterfeit money and counterfeit cards are used, which can cause a great deal of damage to the hall management. Although various measures are being taken at the hall, there is no definitive measure at present.

As measures against the use of counterfeit cards,
There is a rental card exclusively for the hall. However, rewriting recorded information on a card dedicated to a hall is relatively easy and is not an effective measure.

[0010] Therefore, a first object of the present invention is to provide a system that allows a player to play a game on another day by using a game lending medium, thereby satisfying the demands of the player and managing the hall. It is to build a system that leads to stabilization.

A second object is to provide an extremely effective game management system in a game arcade as a countermeasure against the use of counterfeit money and counterfeit cards.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below in more detail with reference to the drawings.

First Embodiment First, a first embodiment in a pachinko game hall will be described with reference to FIGS. In the pachinko game hall, as is well known, the pachinko machines 1, 1... In this island 2, as shown in the figure, a pachinko ball lending machine 3 is provided between the pachinko machines 1 and 1, and the pachinko machine 1 and the pachinko ball lending machine 3 have a one-to-one relationship. The pachinko ball lending machine 3 as a game media lending machine on the left side adjacent to the player can be exclusively used.

A game lending medium lending machine 10 is installed at an end of the island 2 or an appropriate place in the hall. The game lending medium lending machine 10 transfers the money to it, for example, by inserting a bill of 1000 yen, thereby lending the game lending medium 20, and when lending the game lending medium 20, the game lending medium 20 Thus, specific information is provided from the game hall, specifically from the game lending medium lending machine 10. Here, as the game lending medium 20, which will be described in detail later, an example is a flat disk-shaped coin-shaped one shown in FIGS. Reference numeral 30 denotes a payment machine described later.

The game lending medium lending machine 10 has a built-in discrimination (discrimination) machine (not shown), into which a 1,000-yen bill is inserted, and the bill cannot be read as a fake or regular one. If it is not accepted or returned at the slot. On the other hand, if the 1000 yen bill is judged to be a legitimate one by the discriminating (determining) machine, the bill is taken into a safe inside the game lending medium lending machine 10 by a taking-in means using a roller or a belt, for example. Instead, the game lending medium 20 is lent, and when the game lending medium 20 is lent, the game lending medium 2 is lent.
The game lending medium lending machine 10 sends the information to the front lending exit with specific information attached thereto.

Here, a description will be given according to an example shown in FIG. 9. As the game lending medium 20, the game lending medium lending machine 1

Irregularities can be provided. According to this example of providing unevenness, as will be described later with reference to FIG.
Since the frictional force at the time of the rolling conveyance of (A) becomes high, there is an advantage that the rolling conveyance is stabilized.

This specific information can be used to guarantee that the coin 20 (A) has been lent by the hole (in other words, no coins from other holes are allowed or false coins are accepted). Available to not allow). More preferably, information for discriminating the coins 20 (A) to be lent from each other is also given. Here, information common to coins lent by the hall is:
While it is difficult to prevent a large number of coins from being forged in the hole, unique information that distinguishes each of the coins 20 (A) to be lent from each other is also given to the downstream coin 20 (A).
At the stage of use, it is determined whether or not the coin is lent from the hole based on the unique information of the coin, and if it is not borrowed from the hole, it is rejected. Because it is limited, counterfeiting of a large amount of coins can be reliably prevented.

The unit of money of the coin 20 (A) is 100
Yen, 500 yen, 1000 yen, 2000 yen, etc. can be set as appropriate. Also, the game lending medium lending machine 10 can lend coins in a plurality of monetary units (for example,
By selecting the selection button, 1000 yen, 50
1 coin for 0 yen and 5 coins for 100 yen). However, if the unit of money of the coin 20 (A) is excessively large, there is a risk of forgery. Therefore, the cost is preferably 2000 yen, preferably 1000 yen or less. In this example, since it is equivalent to 500 yen, the game lending medium lending machine 1
When the coin is inserted into 0, two coins 20 (A) are lent.

The player receives the lent coin 20 (A), inserts it into the pachinko ball lending machine 3 through the slot 3c, and receives payout of the pachinko ball. The pachinko ball lending machine 3 has a built-in discriminating (discriminating) machine (not shown) for the coin 20 (A). Here, the authenticity of the inserted coin 20 (A) is determined. Alternatively, if it cannot be read as a regular one, it is not accepted at the input port 3c or returned to the return port 3a. Even when a normal coin is inserted, it can be returned to the return port 3a.

On the other hand, if the discrimination (discrimination) machine determines that the coin 20 (A) is genuine, the coin 20 (A) is stored in a safe inside the pachinko ball lending machine 3 by a loading means using, for example, a roller or a belt. The regular coins 20 (A) inserted into each pachinko ball lending machine (game media lending machine) 3, 3... Provided along the island as shown in FIG. Hand over to collection device 4 and collect in safe 5 at the island end.

Subsequently, the coins will be generally described as coins 20. Each coin 20 collected in the safe 5 at the end of the island is
When necessary, the safe 5 returns to the hopper 10B of the game lending medium lending machine 10 via the freighter 6 or the clerk returns it to the hopper 10B for reuse. After polishing the unevenness on the peripheral surface of the coin 20 and flattening the coin 20 at the beginning, specific information can be given again by the processing recording unit 10A when the coin 20 is lent.

Here, as shown in the figure, the processing recording means 10A of the game lending medium lending machine 10 stores the specific information given to the coin 20 (for example, how the irregularities are given).
The main hall computer 60 of the playground, either directly or through the island unit computer 50 at the end of the island.
Output to The computer 50 or 60 gives the specific information to the discriminating (determining) machine of the pachinko ball lending machine 3,
The coin 20 is used for true / false discrimination as to whether or not the coin has been lent at the game hall.

Further, in the hall computer 60, the sales management can be performed based on the number of coins lent or the unit of the amount of money, instead of the amount of money accepted by the game lending medium lending machine 10. Further, based on the number of coins accepted by the pachinko ball lending machine 3 or the unit of the amount thereof, it is possible to manage the sales at the unit pachinko ball lending machine 3 (which can be regarded as the same as the sales at the unit pachinko ball lending machine 1).

[Second Embodiment] In a second embodiment shown in FIG. 4, a game lending medium lending machine 10 is installed at a counter 7 of a game hall. At the counter 7, a clerk receives a money member (for example, 1000 yen) from a player, and rents out coins 20 in a unit of money corresponding to the money member. This game lending medium lending machine 10
Is a processing recording means 1 for coins having a flat peripheral surface.
Specific information is recorded by 0A and rented out. Specific information in the processing recording means 10A is recorded in the hall computer 60. Other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment, except that the coins 20 collected in the safe 5
Can be returned to the hopper 10B by a clerk while holding it by hand and reused.

[Third Embodiment] The third embodiment shown in FIG. 5 is an example of a pachinko ball lending machine 3A having no nozzle 3b. The coins 20 are inserted into the pachinko ball lending machine 3A or the pachinko ball lending machine 3B provided at the end of the island to purchase the pachinko ball P, and the pachinko ball P received at the payout opening 3d or 3e. This is a mode in which the game can be played on the pachinko machine 1 by pouring into the upper tray 1a and operating the handle 1b.

Pachinko ball lending machine 3 between pachinko machines 1 and 1

It is.

In this example, the authenticity of the coin 20 as the game lending medium is determined by the determination means (not shown) attached to the game card lending machine 30 as the primary game medium lending machine. In addition, game card slot 1 of pachinko machine 1A
The authenticity of the game card 21 is determined by the determination means attached to H. It is only necessary to determine at least one of these, but it is extremely important that the gaming card lending machine 30 determine whether the coin 20 is true or false. If the coin 20 is false, the game card 21 is not lent out, and if the game card 21 is false, the pachinko machine 1A does not give the pachinko ball P to the player.

The inserted game card 21 is collected by the collection device 4
A can be collected in safe 5A. Coin 20
Is collected in safe 5.

[Fifth Embodiment] The fifth embodiment shown in FIG. 7 is an example of a slot machine 1B, in which a player gives money to a game lending medium lending machine 10. The coin 20 as a game lending medium received by the player is inserted into a medal lending machine 40 as a game medium lending machine, and a medal 22 as a game medium having an amount equivalent to the inserted coin is received. By giving it to the machine 1B, specifically, by inserting it into the attached medal slot 1J and pressing the game start handle 1g, a game in the slot machine 1B becomes possible.

In this example, the authenticity of the coin 20 as a game lending medium is determined by a determination means (not shown) attached to the medal lending machine 40. Also, the medal 22 is determined to be true or false by the determination means attached to the medal slot 1J of the slot machine 1B. At least one of these may be determined.
It is extremely important to determine whether 0 is true or false. If the coin 20 is false, the medal is not lent, and the medal 2
If 2 is false, the slot machine 1B is configured not to operate.

The inserted medals 22 can be collected in the safe 5B by the collecting device 4B. Coin 20 is
Collect in safe 5.

[Sixth Embodiment] The sixth embodiment shown in FIG. 8 is an example of the case of the slot machine 1B. In this example, a medal lending machine 40A is provided adjacent to the slot machine 1B.

In this example, the medal lending machine 4 at the island end
0, a coin 20 is inserted, a medal 22 as a game medium of an amount equivalent to the inserted coin is received, and a slot 40b of a medal lending machine 40A adjacent to the slot machine 1B.
Then, a coin 20 is inserted, and a medal 22 as a game medium of an amount equivalent to the inserted coin is received, and the received medal 22 is given to the slot machine 1B, so that a game in the slot machine 1B becomes possible. It is configured as follows.

When the coin 20 is inserted into the slot 40b of the medal lending machine 40A, the authenticity of the coin 20 is determined by an attached discriminating means (not shown) provided in the coin receiving passage. Only in the case of, the medal 22 is delivered from the delivery port 40a.

[Other Embodiments] On the other hand, it is also possible to configure so that a game can be played on a gaming machine by inserting coins 20 directly into the gaming machine without going through a gaming medium lending machine. For example, in the slot machine 1B,
Since a medal is used, the coin 20 is formed in the same shape as the medal or the slot machine 1B.
Can be modified so that the slot machine 1B can be operated by using the coin 20, and the slot machine 1B can be directly inserted with the lent coin 20, thereby enabling a game in the slot machine 1B. In this case,
The authenticity of the medal 22 is determined by the determining means attached to the medal slot 1J of the slot machine 1B.

As can be seen from the description of each of the above embodiments, the meaning of "the game lending medium is lent out by giving money to the game lending medium lending machine" in the present invention means that the game lending is performed. In addition to directly putting money into the lending medium lending machine 10, the money lending is given to the clerk, and the coin lending machine 10 receives coins 20 from the store side.

Further, in the present invention, a game lending medium (coin 2) is provided before a game can be played on a gaming machine.
0) is determined on the basis of specific information, and if false, it is sufficient that the game at the gaming machine is finally disabled, and the position of the determination means is not necessarily limited.

<Type of Game Lending Medium> With regard to the first type of game lending medium, coin 20A having irregularities 20a has been described with reference to FIG.

FIG. 10 shows a second example. The coin 20B in this form is a flat disk-shaped body, and specific information is given to the periphery thereof by forming a barcode recording-like through-hole 20b or an arc-shaped or linear arc of irregularities. Things.

In substantially the same manner as in the second example, a circular through hole 2 is formed.
Instead of 0b or unevenness, a plurality of concave grooves may be formed in an arc shape or linear shape.

Further, as shown in FIG.
The recording medium 20c may be incorporated in C or in an exposed state. As the recording medium 20c, a small IC card, a magnetic recording medium, or the like can be used.

In order to determine whether the coin is true or false, specific information can be read by the corresponding specific information reading means. For example, the coin 20A and the coin 20B can be read by optical reading means for the peripheral surface or the peripheral portion. When a magnetic recording medium is built in, when a small IC card is built in by a magnetic detection head,
It can be read by an electrical detection head.

Taking the coin 20B as an example, FIG.
As shown in the figure, a belt conveyor 71 around which a conveyor belt 71a is wound is arranged facing a receiving path 70 having an insertion slot for coins 20B, and the receiving coins 20B are rolled by the belt conveyor 71 and collected through a collecting path 72. In the transporting process to the apparatus 4, the light sensor 73 detects whether or not light passes through the individual through-holes 20 b, and these are detected by a predetermined arc length to detect the through-holes 20 b in any form. , 20b... Are determined by the discriminator 74 to determine whether the group is formed. If it is a counterfeit one, the shutter 75 can be operated to switch to the return passage 76 and return.

On the other hand, the game lending medium may be, for example, a flat rectangular body instead of a flat disk-shaped body. In any case, metal, not paper or plastic, is most suitable in that it can be reused for a long period of time and can be given a shape.

[Regarding the whole game management system and the settlement machine] In the present invention, a player can settle a pachinko ball in the case of a pachinko game and a medal in the case of a slot machine. <First Example in the Case of Pachinko Game> This will be described with reference to FIG. 13 together with the entire game management system in the game hall. When the game is completed, for example, settlement of a so-called jet counter installed at the end of the island Machine 10
At 0, a pachinko ball P is inserted, and a number of coins 20 (20A) corresponding to the number of balls are received (if the coin has a value equivalent to 500 yen, if it is a payout equivalent to 10,000 yen,
Receive 20 coins).

The received coin 20 (20A) is exchanged for a prize at the counter in the hall, and is taken back by the player, and later taken back without being rented from the game lending medium lending machine 10 at a later date. ) Can be played.

<Example of Slot Machine Game> In contrast to this pachinko game example, in the slot machine game as well, although not shown, when the game is completed, similarly, for example, the end of an island or an appropriate hole position The medals are inserted into a checkout machine such as a so-called medal counter installed in the area, and coins 20 (20A) corresponding to the number of medals are provided.
The received coin 20 (20A) can be exchanged for a prize at the counter in the hall, and the player can take it home and play the coin 20 (20A) at a later date. The usage form of the coin 20 in this case can follow the above-described example.

<Second Example of Pachinko Game>
FIG. 14 shows a mode in which a card is used as a game lending medium. That is, this is an example of a so-called CR machine, a pachinko machine 1A based on a credit card system, and a player can use a gaming card lending machine 3 provided at an end of an island, for example.
A money member (for example, 5000 yen) is inserted into 0A, and a game card 21 on which information recording corresponding to the inserted amount is received is received.
By giving the received game card 21 to the pachinko machine 1A, specifically, the game card is inserted into the attached game card slot 1H, and a game start button 1f provided on the upper tray 1a is pressed, and a predetermined number of pachinko machines are pressed. Receiving ball P 1
a, so that a game can be played on the pachinko machine 1A.

In this example, the game card lending machine 30
A uses an attached discriminating means (not shown) to record information corresponding to the amount of money to be inserted, and also to record information that it has been issued in the hall. In addition, by offering to the hall, a blank card in which the amount information is not recorded is borrowed from the hall free of charge or for a small fee, inserted into the gaming card lending machine 30A, and then charged to the money card (for example, 500
0 yen), the information record corresponding to the inserted amount is recorded on the blank card, and this can be used as the game card 21.

The game card 21 is a pachinko machine 1A.
The discriminating means (not shown) attached to the game card slot 1H determines whether the authenticity of the game card 21 is or does not belong to the hole. In addition, when it is a regular one, a game of the amount corresponding to the recorded information is guaranteed. If the game card 21 is false or if it is not the one in the hall, the pachinko machine 1A is configured not to give the pachinko balls P to the player.

At the end of the game, the game card 21 is inserted into the settlement machine 100A such as a jet counter having a so-called recording means installed at the end of the island, and the pachinko balls P are inserted. Card 2
1 receives an information record on the number corresponding to the number of inserted balls. The settlement machine 100A counts the number of inserted balls and subtracts the number consumed in the course of the game from the number of inserted balls into the number of remaining pachinko balls, and records information relating to the number of remaining pachinko balls to the inserted gaming card 21. It is what you do.

The information-recorded game card 21A can be exchanged for a prize at the counter in the hall, taken back by the player, and later returned without receiving the lending from the game card lending machine 30A. 2
A game can be played with 1A.

(Others) It is desirable that the coin 20 (20A) and the game cards 21 and 21A be valid only in the game space. However, when a system in which mutual security management is thoroughly implemented is constructed, a plurality of game spaces are required. And may be commonly used. In this case, in addition to the specific information of the rental hall, security management can be achieved by recording information on the fact that the hall is in the system. Further, it is more desirable in terms of security management to record the lending start date and manage the expiration date.

[0068]

As described above, according to the present invention, a system that enables a game to be played on another day using a game lending medium is provided, thereby satisfying the demands of the player.
A system that leads to stabilization of hall management can be constructed. It can also be a very effective measure against the use of counterfeit money and counterfeit cards.
