[Industrial applications]
The present invention relates to an eccentric distribution device and a ball game machine, and more particularly, to an eccentric distribution device and a ball game machine in which a game in which a game ball is shot into a game area to acquire a right is performed.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In the configuration of the conventional third-type gaming machine, the greatest interest of the player is to put the game into a right generation state, and therefore, the player operates the hitting ball to enter the game ball into a specific area of the right generation device. Of particular note is the behavior of the sphere in the right generation device.
[Patent Document 1] JP-A-5-237222 For example, as described in JP-A-5-237222, a gap through which a pachinko ball can pass is provided at the center of the uppermost part of the ball guiding gutter 74, and a winning opening is provided. 76. Further, in order to assist the pachinko ball to win the winning opening 76, the mounting substrate 72 is provided with ball guiding gutters 75a and 75b. The left and right sides of the ball guiding gutter 74 are formed with bag portions 78a and 78b for receiving balls, and winning portions 80a and 80b are formed in a portion of the mounting substrate 72 surrounded by the bag portions 78a and 78b. The pachinko ball is guided to the back side. A rotating plate 82 that is always rotated at a relatively slow speed (for example, 10 rpm) is provided in the ball guiding gutter 74. On the peripheral surface of the rotating plate 82, ball guiding grooves 84, 86, 88 are formed. The guiding groove 84 among the ball guiding grooves 84 to 88 is for guiding a pachinko ball to the right generation winning opening 80a as a specific area. The other two guiding grooves 86 and 88 are for guiding a pachinko ball to the normal winning port 80b. As described above, the ball guiding grooves 84 to 88 of the rotating disk 82 serve to distribute the winning balls. When the pachinko ball P is received in the ball guiding groove 86 or 88, the rotating disk 82 is rotated, and when the ball guiding groove 86 or 88 is rotated to the position of the bag portion 78b on the right side in the figure, it is received. The pachinko ball P rolls down from the groove 86 or 88 into the bag portion 78b, and wins the winning opening 80b. Here, since the winning opening 80b is a normal winning opening, no right is generated in this case. On the other hand, when the pachinko ball P winning in the winning opening 76 is received by the ball guiding groove 84, the received pachinko ball P does not roll down to the bag portion 78b due to the shape of the ball guiding groove 84, and the rotating disk. When the ball guide groove 84 comes to a position as shown in FIG. 8 with the rotation of 82, the captured pachinko ball rolls down into the bag portion 78b on the left side in the figure. Then, a winning is made to the winning opening 80a. As described above, the winning opening 80a is an example of a right generating winning opening of a specific area. Therefore, the pachinko ball P which has won the winning opening 80a is detected by the right generating winning ball detecting switch 51 provided on the back side of the game board. The rotating disc 82 is driven by a predetermined driving source, and constitutes a dynamic sorting device that sorts a hit ball in the direction of the specific area or in any other direction.
