The special profit state lottery means 91 randomly draws whether or not to generate the special profit state after the change of the special symbols 24a to 24c based on the special symbol starting means 18 detecting the game ball. For example, when a special mode occurrence probability is 1/350, a predetermined number of special profit state lottery random numbers are sequentially generated, such as generating 350 random number values from 0 to 349. When the symbol starting means 18 detects a game ball, any random number value is selected from the special profit state random number for random selection.

The special profit state lottery means 92 judges that the special profit state is a special profit state when the random number value of the special profit state lottery means 91 is the special profit state judgment value (for example, the random number value "7"). Based on the random number value selected by the means 91, it is determined by random number determination whether or not to generate the special profit state.

The fluctuation pattern selecting means 93 selects from a plurality of kinds of fluctuation patterns such as a fluctuation pattern for generating a special profit status and a fluctuation pattern for generating a non-special profit status, based on the judgment result of the special profit status judging means 92. This is for selectively selecting a specific variation pattern to be provided for variation display of the special symbols 24a to 24c. There are one or more types of fluctuation patterns for generating a special profit state, and one or more types of fluctuation patterns for reaching a non-special profit state and one type without a fluctuation for reach. Alternatively, there are plural types of fluctuation patterns.

The stop symbol selecting means 94 is for selecting and deciding the type of the special symbols 24a to 24c finally displayed on the special symbol displaying means 16, and the determination result of the special profit state determining means 92 Based on this, the types of special symbols 24a to 24c that are special modes when it is determined to be the special profit state, and the types of special symbols 24a to 24c that are the non-special modes when it is determined to be the non-special profit state are respectively selected. It has become.

The special profit state generating means 95 is advantageous to the player after the special symbols 24a to 24c of the special symbol display means 16 are stopped in the special mode when the special profit state determining means 92 determines the special profit state. This is for generating a special special profit state, and the opening / closing plate 28 of the variable winning means 19 is opened.

The special profit state generating means 95 has a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds) after the opening / closing plate 28 of the variable winning means 19 is opened, or a predetermined number (for example, 10 pieces) before the predetermined time elapses. ) The closing plate 28 is closed on condition that the game ball wins, and the variable winning means 19 is repeatedly opened and closed up to a predetermined number of times (for example, 16 times) on condition that the game ball passes through the specific area. It is designed to let you know.

The command transmitting means 96 determines the predetermined profit status and the non-predetermined profit status by the predetermined profit status judging means 89, the special profit status and the non-special profit status by the special profit status judging means 92, and the fluctuation. The selection result of the variation pattern in the pattern selection means 93, the predetermined command regarding the selection result of the stop symbol in the stop symbol selection means 94, etc. are transmitted from the game control board 38 to the symbol control board 65 side by one-way communication, respectively. It has become.

The command analysis means 97 is adapted to receive, analyze and store each command transmitted from the game control board 38 side by the command transmission means 96. The normal display control means 98, when the command analysis means 97 outputs a command analysis output, the predetermined profit state determination means 8
While changing the normal symbol of the normal symbol display means 17 for a predetermined time based on the determination result of 9, when the predetermined profit state determining means 89 determines that it is in the predetermined profit state, the normal symbol after the change is in a predetermined mode, and also non-predetermined. To stop the ordinary symbols after the change in a non-predetermined manner when it is determined to be in a profit state,
The normal symbol is controlled to be changed according to the judgment result.

Special display control means 99 is a special symbol 24a

A storage unit 101, an effect pattern selection unit 102 that selectively selects one effect pattern from the first effect pattern group P1 and the second effect pattern group P2 stored in the effect pattern storage unit 101, and this effect. After the special symbols 24a to 24c fluctuate for a predetermined time based on the effect pattern selected by the pattern selection unit 102, the first display unit 25, the second display unit 25, so as to stop at the stop symbol determined by the stop symbol selection unit 94. Special symbol 24a of the display means 26 ~
24c is provided with the effect display control unit 103 for controlling the variable effect.

As shown in FIG. 10, in the first effect pattern group P1, for example, three kinds of special symbols 24a to 24c are changed in the first display means 25 by five kinds of first effect patterns A to.
E is included, and the special symbols 24a to 24c are included in the second effect pattern group P2 as the first display means 25 and the second display means 26.
Five types of second effect patterns F to J that are changed by and are included, and each of these change patterns A to J is programmed in the ROM or the like configuring the effect pattern storage unit 101.

The first effect patterns A to E are for non-special profit state, for example, and the three special symbols 24a to 24c of the first display means 25 start to change at the same time, and the respective special symbols 24a to 24c. Is programmed to stop in a predetermined order such as left, right, and middle after the change, and in each of them, the change time of the special symbols 24a to 24c, the change direction, the presence or absence of temporary stop, the temporary stop time, the presence or absence of reach change The combination of etc. is different.

The second variation patterns F to J are, for example, for the special profit state and the non-special profit state, and the three special symbols 24a to 24c start changing on the first display means 25,
Until each of the special symbols 24a to 24c is stopped and determined in a predetermined order, it moves from the first display means 25 to the second display means 26, and then returns to the first display means 25 and stops, etc. , The first display means 25 and the second display means 26 are programmed so that the special symbols 24a to 24c fluctuate and stop, and the fluctuation time, the fluctuation direction, the presence or absence of temporary stop, the temporary stop time, respectively, In addition to the presence / absence of reach, the number of special symbols 24a to 24c displayed on the first display means 25, the timing at which the special symbols 24a to 24c move between the first display means 25 and the second display means 26, etc. Are different.

For example, the second effect pattern F is shown in FIG.
13A to 13D, the second effect pattern G is shown in FIG.
First display means 25 and second display means, as shown in FIGS.
The display means 26 is programmed so that the special symbols 24a to 24c respectively change. Each of these second effect patterns F to J is displayed on the first display means 2 as shown in FIG.
Three special symbols 24a to 24c start changing on 5, and then some special symbols 24a to 24c of the special symbols 24a to 24c are temporarily stopped in a predetermined order such as left and right. When the reach state is reached in the first effect display process P and the first effect display process P, the special symbol 24 in the reach state
a to 24c are changed to a symbol of the same type as the type at the end of the first effect display process P or a type subsequent thereto, and the first display means 2
5 to the second display means 26, and the second effect display process Q in which the special symbol 24b of the first display means 25 is stopped or changed, and the special symbols 24a, 24c of the second display means 26
Is returned to a predetermined display position X on the first display means 25, and after that, the three special symbols 2 are displayed on the first display means 25 after changing again.
4a to 24c have a program configuration including a third effect display process R that finally stops. 12 and 13

The drive control means 100 is for controlling the drive means 77 of the second display means 26, and the effect pattern selection section 102 includes the second effect including the variable effect on the second display means 26.
When any one of the second effect patterns F to J of the effect pattern group P2 is selected, the second display means 26 is rotated from the retracted position Y to the display position X, and the special symbol 24a at that time
In order that the second display means 26 returns from the display position X to the retreat position Y at least after the change effect of the special symbols 24a and 24c on the second display means 26 is completed, such as the end of the change of 24c.
The solenoid 79 of the drive means 77 is configured to control excitation and demagnetization.

In the pachinko machine, at the time of playing a game, the firing handle 10 of the firing means 9 is operated to cause the firing means 9 to sequentially fire the game balls along the guide rails 14 toward the game board 4 side. Then, the game ball shot to the upper side of the game board 4 enters the game area 15 of the game board 4, and then falls along the board surface to win the normal winning means 21 to 23 or the like, or a normal symbol. It falls downward while passing through the starting means 20.

When the game ball passes through the normal symbol starting means 20, the predetermined profit state lottery means 88 randomly selects the random number generated at that time, and the predetermined profit state determination means 89 generates a predetermined profit state from the lottery random value. It is determined whether or not to do so, and the command transmission unit 96 transmits the command of the determination result to the symbol control board 65. This causes the normal display control means 98 to change the normal symbol of the normal symbol display means 17.

When the predetermined profit state determination means 89 determines that the predetermined profit state, the stop symbol after the change of the normal symbol display means 17 becomes a predetermined mode such as "7" and the predetermined profit state generation means. A predetermined profit state is generated by 90, the opening / closing claw 27 of the special symbol starting means 18 is opened for a predetermined time, and the game ball is easily won in the special symbol starting means 18.

When the game ball wins the special symbol starting means 18, the special profit state lottery means 91 randomly selects the random number value generated at that time, and the special profit state determination means 92 generates the special profit state from the random number value. While determining whether or not to do, the variation pattern selection means 93 selects a variation pattern according to the determination result of the special profit state determination means 92, and the stop symbol selection means 94 is a stop symbol after the variation of the special symbols 24a to 24c. Select. After that, the command transmission means 96 transmits each command from the game control board 38 to the symbol control board 65 by one-way communication.

In the symbol control board 65, the command analysis means 97 receives and analyzes each command, and the special display control means 99 special symbols 24a to 24c of the special symbol display means 16.
Is changed for a predetermined time in a predetermined change pattern, and after the change, the special symbols 24a to 24c are stopped in a predetermined type so as to be a special mode or a non-special mode.

If the special symbols 24a to 24c are in a special mode, then a special profit state is generated by the special profit state generating means 95, the opening / closing plate 28 is opened to the front side, and the game ball falling from above is changed to the variable winning means. I will guide you to 19. This allows the player to enjoy great profits. In addition, the opening / closing plate 28 is
Alternatively, the game ball is closed when a predetermined number of game balls are won by the predetermined time, and the game ball is repeatedly opened and closed up to a predetermined number of times under the condition that the game ball passes through the specific area.

When the special profit state judging means 92 judges that the special profit state has occurred, the fluctuation pattern selecting means 93.
Selects a predetermined variable command for generating a special profit state, and the stop symbol selecting means 94 changes each special symbol 24a to 24.
The type of c is selected, and the command transmission unit 96 transmits each command to the command analysis unit 97 of the symbol control board 65.

On the side of the pattern control board 65, the command analysis means 97 analyzes the command, and the effect pattern selection unit 102 of the special display control means 99 determines the second effect pattern group P2 based on the special profit state generating variable command. One of the two effect patterns F to J is alternatively selected, and the drive control means 100 controls the drive means 77 based on the special profit state generation variation command.

The second display means 26 is normally held at the retracted position Y by the driving means 77, and the game on the rear wall 68a side of the second rear case body 68 from the second display window 74 as shown in FIG. The image 83 is visible. Then, when the solenoid 79 of the drive means 77 is excited by the control of the drive control means 100, the second display means 26 rotates from the retracted position Y to the display position X about the vertical axis 76, and the second display means 26 moves to the second position. The second display surface 26a corresponds to the second display window 74, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, such as being fitted to the rear side of the second display window 74.

On the other hand, when the effect pattern selection unit 102 selects the second effect pattern F, for example, the effect display control unit 10
3 reads out the second effect pattern data stored in the effect pattern storage unit 101, and 3 is displayed on each display means 25, 26.
Production control of the individual special symbols 24a to 24c is performed through a first production display process P, a second production display process Q, and a third production display process R.

In this case, in the first effect display process P, the three special symbols 24a to 24c start changing at substantially the same time on the first display means 25, and then, in FIGS. 12 (a) and 12 (b). As shown, left and right are almost stopped in order to reach the reach state. And if it becomes a reach state, it will shift to the 2nd production display process Q, and the right and left special symbols 24a and 24c will be shown in FIG.
As shown in (c), the first display surface 25 of the first display means 25.
a on the 1st display surface 25
After disappearing from above a, the special symbols 24a, 24c are displayed on the second display surface 26a of each of the left and right second display means 26,
Next, the special symbol 24b which is changing on the first display means 25 is almost stopped.

Therefore, in this state, the three special symbols 24
a to 24c temporarily display the special mode of "7,7,7" on the first display means 25 and the second display means 26 on the left and right sides thereof,
Notice that there is a high possibility that it will become a special mode after the change.
In the case of temporary stop, the stop symbol selected by the stop symbol selection means 94 may be displayed.

When the three special symbols 24a to 24c are temporarily stopped, the process moves to the third effect display process R, and after the special symbols 24a and 24c on the left and right second display means 26 disappear, the special symbol 24a and 24c appear on both ends of the first display surface 25a of the first display means 25 and move to left and right predetermined positions in a moving image. And three special symbols 24a-24c
Changes again on the first display means 25, and after that, as shown in FIG.
As shown in (d), the stop symbol selected by the stop symbol selecting means 94 is stopped and fixed.

When the special symbols 24a to 24c are stopped and confirmed, the drive control means 100 controls the drive means 77, and the drive of the drive means 77 causes the second display means 26 to rotate about the vertical axis 76. Then, the display position X is retreated to the retreat position Y, and the game image 83 can be seen through the second display window 74.

When the special profit state is not generated after the fluctuation of the special symbols 24a to 24c, the fluctuation pattern selecting means 93 selects any of the non-special profit status generating fluctuation patterns, and the command transmitting means 96 outputs the command. Send. When the variation pattern for non-special profit state generation is the reach variation pattern, the effect pattern selection unit 102 determines which of the second effect patterns G to J of the second effect pattern group P2 based on the analysis result of the command analysis unit 97. The drive control means 100 controls the drive means 77, and the second display means 26 is rotated to the display position X. Then, the effect display control unit 103 controls the effect pattern storage unit 101.
The data of the selected second effect patterns G to J is read out from the special symbol 24a of the first display means 25 and the second display means 26 based on the second effect pattern data.
~ 24c production control.

For example, when the effect pattern selection unit 102 selects the second effect pattern G in the second effect pattern group P2 based on the change command, the first effect display process P
Then, the three special symbols 24a to 24c are the first display means 25.
The fluctuation starts above, and then the special symbols 24a and 24c are in the reach state with "7" of the same symbol as shown in (b) of FIG. 13 (a). In the next second effect display process Q, the left and right special symbols 24a and 24c move in a moving manner from the first display means 25 to the second display means 26 while the center special symbol 24b is changing, Second display means 26
The reach state is displayed with (see FIG. 13C).

In the next third effect display process R, the special symbols 24a and 24c of the respective second display means 26 disappear and move in a moving image on the first display means 25 at predetermined display positions X on the left and right sides. After almost stopping, the special symbol 24b in the center fluctuates at a visually low speed and stops at stop symbols other than the left and right special symbols 24a, 24c. The variation in this case is a special symbol 24a based on the variation pattern for non-special profit state occurrence.
Because it is the fluctuation control of 24c, three special symbols 24a ~
For example, 24c is finally stopped and determined in a non-special manner such as "7.6 / 7" as shown in FIG. 13 (d).

When the variation pattern selection means 93 selects a variation pattern for non-special profit state generation that does not involve reach variation, the effect pattern selection unit 102 selects one of the first effect patterns A to E of the first effect pattern group P1. Select either. However, in this case, the drive means 77 does not operate, and the second display means 26 remains retracted to the retracted position Y. Therefore, the three special symbols 24a to 24c fluctuate only in the first display means 25 by the production control of the production display control unit 103, and finally stop in the non-special manner.

As described above, if the first display means 25 and the second display means 26 are combined so as to perform the variation effect of the special symbols 24a to 24c, the conventional first display means 25 is provided.
Compared with the case of only, it is possible to produce a novel effect of the special symbols 24a to 24c, and it is possible to arouse and improve the player's interest in the game. Further, the first display means 25 is provided at the center.
And there are the second display means 26 on both the left and right sides,
A part of the special symbols 24a to 24c can be moved to the left and right during the change, and the fun of the movement can also arouse the interest of the player.

Moreover, the second display means 26 is normally in the retracted position Y.
And the fluctuation pattern selection means 93 selects a fluctuation pattern involving a reach fluctuation (including a fluctuation pattern for generating a special profit state and a fluctuation pattern for generating a non-special profit state), the driving means 77 drives the retracted position. Since the second display means 26 is rotated from Y to the display position X about the vertical axis 76 and corresponds to the second display window 74, the first display means 25 is compared with the second display means 26 at the display position X in a fixed state. And second display means 2
Coupled with the variable effect by 6, special symbols 24a-24c
The novelty of the effect display is further improved.

Further, depending on whether or not the second display means 26 is rotated, the game image 83 on the back side thereof is displayed and the second display means 2 is displayed.
There is an advantage that two types of effect display different from the display of the special symbols 24a and 24c on the 6 side can be performed. Further, when the reach variation is accompanied, if the second display means 26 is rotated before the special symbols 24a to 24c are in the reach state, the reach and the special profit state are caused by the rotation of the second display means 26. It can be announced in advance.

Despite the presence of the second display means 26 on both the left and right sides of the first display means 25, a predetermined space is provided between the first display means 25 and the second display means 26, and a game is performed between them. Since the ball passing area 15a is used, the movement of the game ball in the game area 15 is not limited, and the deviation of the movement path of the game ball can be prevented.

14 and 15 exemplify a second embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the second display means 26 is configured to be rotated about the vertical axis 76 by the drive means 77, and The special symbols 24a to 24c after the change are configured in a special manner so that the rotation angle thereof becomes large according to the reliability when the special profit state occurs.

As shown in FIG. 14, the second display means 26 is pivoted into the second rear case body 68 by the vertical axis 76 arranged on the side closer to the first display means 25 with respect to the second display window 74. It is rotatably supported, and its longitudinal axis 76 is connected to drive means 77, for example, a motor 105 with a reducer. Motor 105
Drives the second display means 26 around the vertical axis 76 and retracts to one side of the second display window 74, and the second display window 7.

3, I1, I2, I3, J1, J2, J3 are included, and their respective second effect patterns F, G1, G2, G3, H.
1, H2, H3, I1, I2, I3, J1, J2, J3
Is set in correspondence with the reliability (possibility) that the special symbols 24a to 24c after the change become the special mode and the special profit state occurs.

For example, as shown in FIG. 15, the second effect pattern F corresponding to the special profit state generation fluctuation pattern has a reliability of 100%, and other special profit state generation fluctuation patterns and non-special profit state generation fluctuation patterns. Second effect patterns G1, G2, G3, H1, H2, H corresponding to both
3, I1, I2, I3, J1, J2, J3 are reliability 30
%, 18%, 5%, 1%, etc. And
In the drive control means 100, the effect pattern selection unit 102 causes the second effect pattern F, G1, G of the second effect pattern group P2.
2, G3, H1, H2, H3, I1, I2, I3, J
According to the selection result when any one of J1, J2, and J3 is selected, the higher the reliability is, the more the retreat position Y of the second display means 26 is set.
The motor 105 is controlled so as to increase the rotation angle from.

For example, in the case of the second effect pattern F having the reliability of 100%, the second effect patterns G1, G2, G3 having the reliability of 30% and the second effect pattern H1 having the reliability of 18% are provided at all display positions X. Intermediate display position X1 when H2 and H3
In addition, when the second effect patterns I1, I2, I3 having a reliability of 5% and the second effect patterns J1, J2, J3 having a reliability of 1%, the second display means 26 is stopped at the intermediate display position X2. It is set.

It should be noted that a plurality of types of second effect patterns F, G1, G2, G3, H1, H having different degrees of reliability are thus provided.
2, H3, I1, I2, I3, J1, J2, J3, the fluctuation pattern selecting means 93 selects a fluctuation pattern of a predetermined reliability based on the judgment result of the special profit status judging means 92, and The command transmitting unit 96 transmits the selection result as a command, and the effect pattern selection unit 102 selects any of the second effect patterns corresponding to the predetermined reliability.

In this embodiment, for example, when the special profit state determination unit 92 determines that the special profit state and the change pattern selection unit 93 selects the change pattern with the reliability of 100% of the second effect pattern group P2, The effect pattern selection unit 102 selects the second effect pattern F, and the drive control unit 1
By the control of 00, the motor 105 rotates the second display means 26 from the retracted position Y to the full display position X. As a result, the entire second display surface 26a of the second display means 26 corresponds to the second display window 74, and in that state, the special symbol 2 as described above.
The effect display of 4a and 24c is performed.

Further, when the special profit state judging means 92 judges that the special profit state or the non-special profit state and the fluctuation pattern selecting means 93 selects the fluctuation pattern having the reliability of 18% of the second effect pattern group P2, Performance pattern selection unit 10
2 is the second effect pattern H1, H2, H3 with a reliability of 18%
Any one of the above is selected, and the motor 105 rotates the second display means 26 from the retracted position Y to the intermediate display position X1 under the control of the drive control means 100. In this case, the second display surface 26 corresponding to the second display window 74 of the second display means 26.
The area of "a" is substantially reduced, and in that state, the special symbols 24a, 24c are displayed as effects, as described above.

Therefore, the rotational position of the second display means 26 is changed on the basis of the difference in reliability, and as the reliability increases, the area of the second display surface 26a corresponding to the second display window 74 substantially changes. If it is configured so as to be wide, the reliability can be grasped by the difference in the rotational position and the difference in the display area due to this, and the interest of the player can be improved.

The drive control means 100 selects the result of the variation pattern selection means 93 (variation pattern command).
Alternatively, the driving unit 77 may be controlled based on the selection result of the effect pattern selection unit 102.
