A drive shaft 38A (see FIGS. 22 and 23) of the drive motor 38 is inserted into the central portion of the cam 36, and a central shaft hole 121 serving as the center of rotation is formed. The first cam 119 has a central shaft hole 121 located at the center of the fan shape, and the second cam 120 has a certain distance in the major axis direction with respect to the center of the ellipse (in the first embodiment, about the length of the ellipse major axis). 2/3) The central shaft hole 121 is located at the moved position.

  Next, the movable mechanism of the movable member 30 configured as described above will be described using the right arm movable portion 32 as an example. 22 and 23 are schematic views showing one aspect when the right arm movable portion according to the first embodiment is movable. 22 and 23, only the minimum necessary members are shown for easy explanation of the movable mechanism, and the other members are not shown.

  As shown in FIG. 22, the drive shaft 38 </ b> A of the drive motor 38 is inserted into the central shaft hole 121 of the first cam 119, and the first cam 119 is rotationally driven by the drive motor 38. The wire 34 supported so as to be in contact with the circumferential surface of the first cam 119 is given a constant tension depending on the rotation angle of the first cam 119 at that time. That is, when the circumferential surface of the first cam 119 other than the fan-shaped arc is in contact with the wire 34 (see FIG. 22), almost no tension is applied to the wire 34. Further, when the circumferential surface forming the sectoral arc of the first cam 119 is in contact with the wire 34 (see FIG. 23), a constant tension is applied to the wire 34.

Then, as shown in FIG. 22, in a state where the wire 34 is hardly applied with the tension by the first cam 119, the movable member 30 is not biased by the wire 34 and can rotate around the shaft rods 96 and 97. The first right arm movable portion 83 and the second right arm movable portion 84 supported by the horizontal axis are horizontal with respect to the installation surface of the pachinko machine by urging the helical springs 125 and 126 attached to the shaft rods 96 and 97, respectively. Is held in a straight line. As a result, a state where the right arm of the doll is extended is expressed by the right arm movable unit 32 (see FIG. 22).
The helical springs 125 and 126 are attached by being wound around the shaft rods 96 and 97, respectively. The helical spring 125 is an angle at which the second right arm movable portion 84 is designated with respect to the fixed portion 31. The power is urged clockwise until it reaches about 180 degrees in the first embodiment. Further, the helical spring 126 urges the first right arm movable portion 83 counterclockwise until it reaches a designated angle (about 180 degrees in the first embodiment) with respect to the second right arm movable portion 84.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 23, when the first cam 119 is rotated by the drive of the drive motor 38 and the wire 34 is given a constant tension by the first cam 119, the wire 34 exerts a force on the right arm movable portion 32. Is energized. Here, as described above, one end of the wire 34 is fixed to the wire fixing part 40 provided in the special symbol display device 25, and the other end is fixed to the wire fixing part 91 provided in the first right arm movable part 83. Yes. Accordingly, the first right arm movable portion 83 and the second right arm movable portion 84 that are rotatably supported by the shaft rods 96 and 97 are arranged so that the wire fixing portion 91 is positioned closer to the first cam 119. The helical springs 125 and 126 are moved around the shaft rods 96 and 97 while being elastically deformed. Specifically, the second right arm movable portion 84 rotates counterclockwise with respect to the fixed portion 31, and the first right arm movable portion 83 rotates clockwise with respect to the second right arm movable portion 84. As a result, a state where the right arm of the doll is contracted is expressed by the right arm movable unit 32 (see FIG. 23).

Further, the wire 34 is accommodated in the spring 127 at a portion located in the right arm movable portion 32 (from the locking piece 117 to an approximately intermediate position). The spring 127 is an elastic cylindrical member that is freely deformed by urging a force, and has a length that is approximately ½ of the length of the wire 34. The wire 34 is accommodated in the spring 127 and held by the wire support portion 90 and the support groove 98 of the right arm movable portion 32.
Accordingly, since the spring 34 covers the wire 34 at the portion where the wire 34 slides within the movable member 30, it is possible to prevent the movable member 30 from being damaged due to friction with the wire 34.

  Next, the movable mechanism of the entire movable member 30 including the right arm movable portion 32 having the movable mechanism as described above will be described with reference to FIGS. FIGS. 24 to 26 are schematic views showing one aspect when the movable member according to the first embodiment is movable.

  In the pachinko machine 1 according to the first embodiment, the drive motor 38 is stopped in the normal gaming state. For example, as shown in FIG. 24, the doll of the movable member 30 has the right arm contracted and the right foot lowered. Take a state. On the other hand, when the game ball wins the start opening 43 and an effect is started in the special symbol display device 25, the drive motor 38 starts driving at the same time. The movable member 30 is movable according to the current angle of the rotating cam 36 and takes various forms.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 24, the long diameter side circle in which the wire 34 abuts on the fan-shaped arc of the first cam 119 and the elliptical central shaft hole 121 forming the second cam 120 is formed. When contacting the peripheral surface, the doll of the movable member 30 takes a “standby state” in which the right arm is contracted and the right foot is lowered.

  In the “standby state”, a constant tension is applied to the wire 34 by the first cam 119, and almost no tension is applied to the wire 35. Therefore, due to the tension of the wire 34, the right arm movable part 32 rotates the second right arm movable part 84 counterclockwise with respect to the fixed part 31 as described above, and the first right arm movable part 83 becomes the second right arm movable part. Rotate clockwise relative to 84. As a result, a state where the right arm is contracted is expressed by the right arm movable unit 32. On the other hand, since the right foot movable portion 33 is not given tension by the wire 35, the right foot movable portion 33 is urged to form a straight line by the helical springs 128, 129 attached to the shaft rods 113, 114, and is also applied to the fixed portion 31 by its own weight. On the other hand, it is positioned vertically downward. As a result, the state where the right foot is lowered is expressed by the right foot movable portion 33.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 25, the wire 34 abuts on the peripheral surface of the first cam 119 other than the fan-shaped arc, and the elliptical central shaft 121 forming the second cam 120 is formed on the long diameter side. When it comes into contact with the circumferential surface, the doll of the movable member 30 takes a “punch state” in which the right arm is extended and the right foot is lowered.

  In the “punch state”, almost no tension is applied to the wire 34 and the wire 35. Therefore, the first right arm movable portion 83 and the second right arm movable portion 84 that are rotatably supported around the shaft rods 96 and 97 are attached to the helical springs 125 and 126 attached to the shaft rods 96 and 97, respectively. It is held so as to form a straight line in the horizontal direction with respect to the installation surface of the pachinko machine. As a result, the state where the right arm is extended is expressed by the right arm movable unit 32. On the other hand, since the tension by the wire 35 is not applied to the right foot movable portion 33, the right foot movable portion 33 is urged so as to form a straight line by the helical springs 128 and 129 attached to the shaft rods 113 and 114. Is located vertically below. As a result, the state where the right foot is lowered is expressed by the right foot movable portion 33.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 26, the wire 34 abuts on the circumferential surface of the first cam 119 that forms a fan-shaped arc, and the long axis on the opposite side in which the elliptical central shaft hole 121 that forms the second cam 120 is formed. , The doll of the movable member 30 takes a “kick state” in which the right arm is contracted and the right foot is swung up.

  In the “kick state”, a constant tension is applied to the wire 34 by the first cam 119, and a constant tension is also applied to the wire 35 by the second cam 120. Therefore, due to the tension of the wire 34, the right arm movable part 32 rotates the second right arm movable part 84 counterclockwise with respect to the fixed part 31 as described above, and the first right arm movable part 83 becomes the second right arm movable part. Rotate clockwise relative to 84. As a result, a state where the right arm is contracted is expressed by the right arm movable unit 32. On the other hand, in the right foot movable portion 33, the second right foot movable portion 101 rotates clockwise with respect to the fixed portion 31 due to the tension of the wire 35, and the first right foot movable portion 100 rotates relative to the second right foot movable portion 101. Rotate around. As a result, the state where the right foot is swung up is expressed by the right foot movable portion 33.

  In the first embodiment, when the game ball wins the start opening 43 and the special symbol display device 25 starts the symbol variation effect, the drive motor 38 is driven, and the doll of the movable member 30 has the above-mentioned “ The “standby state”, “punch state”, and “kick state” are repeatedly expressed in order until the production ends.

A big hit counter 463A to be stored is provided. The count value of the jackpot counter 463A is read at the timing when the switch signal is output from the start port switch, and it is determined whether or not the jackpot is based on the read count value. Here, for example, in normal times, the count value “7” corresponds to the jackpot, and in the so-called probability variation mode (when probability variation is acquired), the count value “1, 3, 5, 7” corresponds to the jackpot. The other count values are off.

  In addition, a normal symbol counter 463B is provided in which a numerical value obtained by repeatedly adding one by one from 0 to 9 (returning to the minimum value 0 next to the maximum value 9) based on the clock signal input from the clock circuit 460 is provided. Yes. The count value of the normal symbol counter 463B is read at the timing when the switch signal is output from each gate switch, and it is determined whether or not it is a hit based on the read count value. Here, for example, the case where the count value is an even number corresponds to a win, and the case where the count value is an odd number corresponds to a loss.

  Here, the normal symbol counter 463B, when the pachinko ball passes through the gate 45 (see FIG. 2), the numerical value stored when the signal from the gate switch for detecting the passage of the pachinko ball is input at that time.

It is determined whether or not reach is reached. Here, for example, this corresponds to the case of reach loss where the count value “0 to 27” is released after reaching, and the case where the count value “28 to 199” is immediately released without reaching reach.

The RAM 463 stores a jackpot symbol selection counter in which a numerical value obtained by repeatedly adding one by one from 0 to 8 based on the clock signal output from the clock circuit 460 (returns to the minimum value 0 after the maximum value 8) is stored. 463F is provided. The count value of the jackpot symbol selection counter 463F is read at the timing when the switch signal is output from the start port switch, and the jackpot symbol displayed on the special symbol display device 25 is selected based on the read count value. Here, for example, in the normal gaming state, the count value “0” is a jackpot symbol “111”, the count value “1” is a jackpot symbol “222”, the count value “2” is a jackpot symbol “444”, and the count value “3” is a jackpot symbol “444”, a count value “4” is a jackpot symbol “555”, a count value “5” is a jackpot symbol “666”, a count value “6” is a jackpot symbol “666”, and a count value “7” "Corresponds to the jackpot symbol" 888 ", and the count value" 8 "corresponds to the jackpot symbol" 999 ". Further, when the gaming state with the probability variation is acquired, the jackpot symbol “333” corresponds when the count value is an odd number, and the jackpot symbol “777” corresponds when the count value is an even number.
As is known, each jackpot symbol is a symbol that is stopped and displayed after a series of symbol variations based on various display effects at the time of jackpot.

A determination process for determining whether or not an input is made via (I / O) 464 is executed.
If the pachinko ball detection signal from the start port switch is not input via the input / output circuit 464 (S1: NO), the process is terminated.

On the other hand, when a pachinko ball detection signal from the start port switch is input via the input / output circuit 464 (S1: YES), “count value acquisition processing” is executed in S2.

First, the main control CPU 461 determines whether or not it is in the “short time / accuracy variable mode”. The main control CPU 461 changes the short time / accuracy variable algebra L (described later) to the short time / accuracy variable algebra L when the power is turned on. Reads “0”. When the time-short / accurate variation algebra L is “0”, it is determined that the time-short / accuracy variation mode is not in “time-short / accurate variation mode”, and the “normal jackpot value” stored in the ROM 462 in advance (in the case of the first embodiment, "7"), and the "normal jackpot value" is stored in the parameter storage area 463L as a "big hit value". In addition, when the time / accuracy variable algebra L read from the parameter storage area 463L is “1”, it is determined that the mode is “time / accuracy variation mode”, and the “probability large hit value” (first variable) stored in the ROM 462 in advance is stored. In the case of one embodiment, “1”, “3”, “5”, and “7”) are read out, and this “probability big hit value” is stored as “big hit value” in the parameter storage area 463L.

Next, in S <b> 4, the CPU 461 executes a determination process for determining whether or not it is “big hit”.
In the determination process of whether or not this is a “big hit”, first, the algebra V as the “big hit count value” is read from the parameter storage area 463L. Then, it is determined whether or not the algebra V matches the “big hit value” stored in the parameter storage area 463L. If they match, the jackpot algebra R (“0” is substituted for the jackpot algebra R when the power is turned on) is stored in the parameter storage area 463L by substituting “1”. Then, “0” is substituted into the jackpot algebra R and stored in the parameter storage area 463L.
Therefore, in the case of a normal gaming state that is not in the “time reduction / probability change mode”, the occurrence probability of “big hit” is 1/360. Further, in the case of the gaming state of “time reduction / probability change mode”, the occurrence probability of “big hit” is 4/360.
In the case of a normal gaming state that is not in the “time reduction / probability change mode”, the change time of the fluctuation symbol is about 10 to 30 seconds, but in the case of the game state in the “time reduction / probability change mode”, it changes. The change time of the symbol is about 5 to 7 seconds, and it stops earlier than the normal gaming state.

Then, the jackpot algebra R is read again from the parameter storage area 463L, and it is determined whether the jackpot algebra R is “0” or “1”. That is, it is determined whether or not “big hit” has occurred.
When the jackpot algebra R is “1”, it is determined that a “jackpot” has occurred (S4: YES), and in S5, the main control CPU 461 performs a sub-process (see FIG. 32).

Next, in S6, the main control CPU 461 executes a determination process for determining whether or not it is in the time reduction / probability change mode. That is, a short time / probable variable algebra L, which will be described later, stored in the parameter storage area 463L is read, and it is determined whether the short time / probable variable algebra L is “0” or “1”.
If the time-short / probability variable algebra L is “1”, it is determined that the time-short / probability change mode is “Short-time / probability change mode” (S6: YES). In S7, the main control CPU 461 selects the probability change large winning symbol. Execute. In the selection of the probabilistic jackpot symbol, the algebra Y as the jackpot symbol selection count value is read from the parameter storage area 463L, and when the algebra Y is an even number, the jackpot symbol “777” as the jackpot symbol instructed to the display control board 66 is obtained. When the symbol is stored in the parameter storage area 463L, on the other hand, when the algebra Y is an odd number, the jackpot symbol “333” is stored in the parameter storage area 463L as the jackpot symbol instructed to the CPU 661 of the display control board 66.
In S8, the main control CPU 461 selects a variation pattern instructed to the display control CPU 661. That is, the algebra H as the variation pattern selection count value is read from the parameter storage area 463L, and when the algebra H is an even number, “pattern 5” is stored in the parameter storage area 463L as the variation pattern instructed to the display control CPU 661. On the other hand, when the algebra H is an odd number, “pattern 6” is stored in the parameter storage area 463L as a variation pattern instructed to the CPU 661 of the display control board 66.

If the time-short / accuracy variable algebra L read from the parameter storage area 463L is “0” in S6, it is determined that the “time-short / accuracy change mode” is not set (S6: NO), and the normal jackpot symbol is selected in S9. Execute the process. In selecting the normal jackpot symbol, the algebra Y as the jackpot symbol selection count value is read from the parameter storage area 463L, and the jackpot symbol corresponding to the algebra Y is selected. For example, when the algebra Y is “0”, it is “111”, when it is “1”, “222”, when it is “2”, “444”, when it is “3”, “444”, “ 4 ”is“ 555 ”,“ 5 ”is“ 666 ”,“ 6 ”is“ 666 ”,“ 7 ”is“ 888 ”, and“ 8 ”. Each symbol of “999” is selected and stored in the parameter storage area 463L as a jackpot symbol instructed to the display control CPU 661.
In S10, the main control CPU 461 selects a variation pattern instructed to the display control CPU 661. That is, the algebra H as the variation pattern selection count value is read from the parameter storage area 463L, and when this algebra H is an even number, “pattern 7” as the variation pattern instructed to the CPU 661 of the display control board 66 is stored in the parameter storage area 463L. On the other hand, if the algebra H is an odd number, “pattern 8” is stored in the parameter storage area 463L as a variation pattern instructed to the display control CPU 661.

On the other hand, when the read jackpot algebra R is “0” in S4, it is determined as lost (S4: NO), and in S11, the main control CPU 461 displays the change symbol at this time as a change symbol. Reach state in which two of the three symbols are aligned (for example, “5, -5”, “7,-, 7”, etc., where “-” means that the symbol is rotating) It is determined whether or not to display a loss after displaying.
For this determination, the reach count value stored in the parameter storage area 463L is read, and the reach occurrence numerical value stored in advance in the RAM 463 (in the first embodiment, “0” to “27”). It is determined whether or not they match, and if they match, it is determined that a loss after reach state is displayed (S11: YES), and a lose reach symbol is selected in S12. The selection of the lose reach symbol is performed by reading the algebra F as the reach symbol selection count value from the parameter storage area 463L, reading the reach lose symbol corresponding to the algebra F from the RAM 463, and storing the parameter as a reach lose symbol for instructing the display control CPU 661. Store in area 463L.
Subsequently, in S13, the main control CPU 461 selects a variation pattern instructed to the display control CPU 661. That is, the algebra H as the variation pattern selection count value is read from the parameter storage area 463L, and when the algebra H is “0 to 2”, “pattern 2” is used as the variation pattern instructed to the display control CPU 661. Store in 463L. When the algebra H is “3 to 6”, “pattern 3” is stored in the parameter storage area 463L as a variation pattern instructed to the display control CPU 661. Further, when the algebra H is “7 to 9”, “pattern 4” is stored in the parameter storage area 463L as a variation pattern instructed to the display control CPU 661.

On the other hand, in S11, the reach count value stored in the parameter storage area 463L is read, and the reach occurrence numerical value stored in advance in the RAM 463 (in the case of the first embodiment, “0” to “27”). If it is determined that they do not coincide with each other (S11: NO), the lost symbol selection count value I is read from the parameter storage area 463L in S14, and the symbol data of the lost symbol corresponding to the algebra I is read from the RAM 463. Then, it is stored in the parameter storage area 463L as symbol data instructed to the display control CPU 661.
In S14, the main control CPU 461 stores “pattern 1” in the parameter storage area 463L as a variation pattern instructed to the display control CPU 661.

Next, in S15, the main control CPU 461 again reads the symbol data and variation pattern instructed to the display control CPU 661 from the parameter storage area 463L, and instructs the display control CPU 661.
Subsequently, in S16, the main control CPU 461 reads the variation display processing time of the variation pattern output to the display control PU 661 from the ROM 462, and waits for the processing time (S16: NO). For example, when the variation pattern is “pattern 2”, the process waits for 20 seconds. When the variation pattern is “pattern 3”, the process waits for 30 seconds. When the variation pattern is “pattern 4”, the process waits for 10 seconds. When the variation pattern is “pattern 5” or “pattern 7”, the process waits for 22 seconds. When the variation pattern is “pattern 6” or “pattern 8”, the process waits for 32 seconds. Further, when the variation pattern is “pattern 1”, each processing time stored in advance in the ROM 462 corresponding to the lost symbol is awaited.

When the processing time of the variation display processing such as “big hit variation pattern” or the “losing symbol” variation display processing has elapsed (S16: YES), in S17, the main control CPU 461 displays the display control CPU 661. A final stop signal is output to the display control CPU 661 so as to stop the fluctuation, that is, a final stop command.
Thereafter, in S18, the main control CPU 461 executes a sub-process (see FIG. 33) of a “big hit game process” described later, and then ends the process.

  Next, the sub-process (S5) of the “probability change acquisition process” will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 32 is a flowchart of the probability variation acquisition process executed by the main control CPU of the pachinko machine according to the first embodiment. 32 are stored in a ROM 462 and a RAM 463 provided in the main control board 69 and executed by the main control CPU 461.

  As shown in FIG. 32, first, in S21, the main control CPU 461 executes processing for determining whether or not the current gaming state is the normal gaming state. That is, the time-short / probable variable algebra L is read from the parameter storage area 463L, and processing for determining whether the time-short / probable variable algebra L is “0” or “1” is executed.

  The main control CPU 461 determines that the current gaming state is not the “normal gaming state” when the time-short / probable variation algebra L read from the parameter storage area 463L in S21 is “1” (S21: NO). In S22, “0” is substituted into the short-time / probable variable algebra L and stored again in the parameter storage area 463L, the sub-process is terminated, and the process returns to the “start opening prize process”.

On the other hand, when the time-short / probable variable algebra L read from the parameter storage area 463L in S21 is “0”, the main control CPU 461 determines that the current gaming state is the “normal gaming state” (S21: YES). ) In S23, a determination process for determining whether or not the “short time / probability change mode” has been acquired is executed.
In the process of determining whether or not the “short time / probability change mode” has been acquired, first, the main control CPU 461 reads the algebra Y as the “big hit symbol selection count value” from the parameter storage area 463L. Next, the main control CPU 461 determines whether or not the read algebra Y matches any of the numerical data of “0” to “3”.
Then, the main control CPU 461 obtains the “time reduction / probability change mode” when the read algebra Y matches any of the numerical data “1”, “3”, “5”, and “7”. If the algebra Y does not match any of the numerical data “1”, “3”, “5”, and “7”, it is determined that the “time reduction / probability variation mode” has not been acquired. Therefore, in this case, the probability that the “short time / probability mode” can be acquired is 4/9.
As a result, when the jackpot symbol that is finally stopped and displayed by the variable display is “222”, “444”, “666”, “888”, “999”, the “short-time / accurate change mode” does not occur. . On the other hand, in the case of the “normal game state”, when the jackpot symbol that is finally stopped and displayed by the variable display is “111”, “333”, “555”, “777”, the “time reduction / probability change mode” Will occur.

If the “short-time / probability variation mode” is not acquired in S23 (S23: NO), “0” is substituted into the short-time / probability variation algebra L read from the parameter storage area 27L in S22, and the parameter is again set. The data is stored in the storage area 27L, the sub-process is terminated, and the process returns to the “start opening prize process”.
On the other hand, when the “short time / accuracy change mode” is acquired in S23 (S23: YES), in S24, the main control CPU 461 performs “setting of the short time / accuracy change mode”. In other words, “1” is substituted into the time-short / probable variable algebra L read from the parameter storage area 463L, and is stored again in the parameter storage area 463L. Then, the sub-process is terminated, and the process returns to the “start opening prize process”.

Next, the sub-process (S18) of the “big hit game process” will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 33 is a flowchart of the jackpot game process executed by the main control CPU of the pachinko machine according to the first embodiment. 33 are stored in a ROM 462 and a RAM 463 provided in the main control board 69 and executed by the main control CPU 461.
As shown in FIG. 33, first, in S31, the main control CPU 461 executes a determination process for determining whether or not a “big hit” has occurred. This determination process reads the jackpot algebra R from the parameter storage area 463L, and determines whether the jackpot algebra R is “0” or “1”. That is, it is determined whether or not “big hit” has occurred. If the jackpot algebra R is “0”, it is determined that no “jackpot” has occurred (S31: NO), the sub-process is terminated, and the process returns to the “start opening prize process”.

  On the other hand, when the jackpot algebra R read from the parameter storage area 463L is “1”, it is determined that a jackpot has occurred (S31: YES), and in S32, the main control CPU 461 closes the jackpot 48. The opening / closing door 47 is opened.

Subsequently, in S33, whether or not 10 winning balls have been won in the grand prize opening 48, that is, whether or not the number of winning prizes detected by a large winning hole count switch (not shown) has reached ten. Determine.
If the number of winning balls won in the big winning opening 48 has not reached ten (S33: NO), in S34, after the big winning opening 48 is opened, a predetermined time (in the case of the first embodiment, It is about 25 seconds.) It is determined whether or not it has elapsed. If the predetermined time has not elapsed since the special winning opening 48 was opened (S34: NO), the processing after S33 is executed again.

  On the other hand, when the number of winning balls that have won in the big prize opening 48 has reached 10 (S33: YES), or when a predetermined time has passed since the big prize opening 48 was opened (S34: YES), in S35, The main control CPU 461 closes the open / close door 47 and closes the special winning opening 48.

Subsequently, in S36, the main control CPU 461 determines whether or not the V prize zone provided in the big prize opening 48 is won during the opening of the big prize opening 48, that is, the V (not shown) while the big prize opening 48 is opened. A determination process for determining whether or not a winning ball detection signal is input from the switch is executed.
If a winning detection signal is input from the V switch while the special winning opening 48 is opened (S36: YES), the number of times the main control CPU 461 has continuously opened the special winning opening 48 in S37. Is executed to determine whether or not has reached a predetermined maximum number of continuations (in the case of the first embodiment, “16 times”). When the number of times that the special winning opening 48 is opened does not reach the predetermined maximum number of continuous times (S37: NO), a predetermined time (about 2 seconds in the first embodiment) after the special winning opening 48 is closed. After the elapse of time, the processes after S32 are executed again.

  In addition, when the winning detection signal is not input from the V switch while the special winning opening 48 is opened (S36: NO), or when the number of times that the special winning opening 48 is opened reaches a predetermined maximum number of times. (S37: YES), the sub-process is terminated and the process returns to the “start opening prize process”.

  Next, a symbol variation control process for displaying “hit symbol” and the like executed by the display control CPU 661 of the display control board 66 configured as described above will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 34 is a flowchart of the symbol variation control process executed by the display control CPU of the pachinko machine according to the first embodiment. Each program shown in the flowchart in FIG. 34 is stored in a ROM 662 or a RAM 663 provided in the display control board 66 and executed by the display control CPU 661.

As shown in FIG. 34, first, in S41, the display control CPU 661 executes a determination process for determining whether or not a symbol variation start command is input from the main control CPU 461.
When the symbol variation start command is not input from the main control CPU 461 (S41: NO), the display control CPU 661 ends the process.

On the other hand, when the symbol variation start command is input from the main control CPU 461 (S41: YES), the display control CPU 661 stores the symbol variation start command signal in the RAM 663 in S42.
In S43, the CPU 661 for display control reads the instructed “variation pattern” from the RAM 663, and the “variation pattern” corresponding to the “variation pattern” is stored in the variation pattern table storage area 662A of the ROM 662. Read “variable display table”.
For example, when the “variation pattern” is “pattern 1”, the complete loss table is read. If the “variation pattern” is “pattern 2”, the reach A loss table is read. If the “variation pattern” is “pattern 3”, the reach B loss table is read. If the “variation pattern” is “pattern 4”, the reach C loss table is read. When the “variation pattern” is “pattern 5”, the reach A probability variation hit table is read. If the “variation pattern” is “pattern 6”, the reach B probability variation table is read. When the “variation pattern” is “pattern 7”, the reach per normal A table is read. When the “variation pattern” is “pattern 8”, the reach B normal hit table is read.

Subsequently, in S44, the display control CPU 661 starts variable display of three columns of variable symbols based on each data read from the variable display table.
Further, the drive motor 38 connected to the input / output circuit (I / O) 664 is controlled to turn on the drive motor 38 (S45). As a result, the doll of the movable member 30 repeatedly moves in the order of “standby state” → “punch state” → “kick state” → “standby state” →... By the tension of the wires 34 and 35 as described above. . Further, at that time, as shown in FIG. 35, a sandback 132 is displayed on the liquid crystal screen 131 of the liquid crystal display 27 in addition to the change display of the symbol. Then, the screen is controlled so that the sandback 132 swings in response to the punching operation and the kicking operation of the movable member 30.

Furthermore, the movable mode of the movable member 30 differs depending on the variation pattern. That is, the display control CPU 661 controls the drive motor 38 according to the type of variation pattern read in S43, and changes the movable mode of the movable member 30.
For example, when the “variation pattern” is “pattern 1” and “pattern 2”, the drive motor is driven at 1 revolution / second, and the movable member 30 moves from “standby state” → “punch state” → “kick state” ”→” Standby ”→ ... Repeat at low speed.
When the “variation pattern” is “pattern 3”, “pattern 4”, and “pattern 5”, the drive motor is driven at 2 revolutions / second, and the movable member 30 moves from “standby state” to “punch state”. ”→” Kick state ”→“ Standby state ”→...
When the “variation pattern” is “pattern 6”, the drive motor is driven by reverse rotation at 1 rotation / second, and the movable member 30 moves from “standby state” → “kick state” → “punch state” → Repeat "Standby" → ... at low speed.
When the “variation pattern” is “pattern 7” and “pattern 8”, the drive motor is driven by reverse rotation at 2 rotations / second, and the movable member 30 moves from “standby state” to “kick state” → Repeat “Punch” → “Standby” →… at high speed.
Therefore, various effects can be performed by changing the movable mode of the movable member 30 based on the variation pattern, and the player is not bored.

After that, in S46, the three rows of changing symbols are temporarily stopped (the three rows of changing symbols are swung up and down). In S47, the CPU 661 waits for an input of a fixed stop signal (S46: NO).
As a result, when a fixed stop signal is input (S47: YES), the variable symbol is fixedly stopped and displayed in S48, and the symbol variation control process is terminated. Further, the power source of the drive motor 38 is turned off, and the movement of the movable member 30 is stopped (S49).

As described above, in the pachinko machine 1 according to the first embodiment, the first motor 119 and the second cam 120 are rotationally driven by the drive motor 38 at the time of production by the pachinko machine 1 (when the pattern changes in the first embodiment). As a result, tension is applied to the wires 34 and 35. Since the right arm movable portion 32 and the right foot movable portion 33 having multiple joints provided on the movable member 30 are moved by the wires 34 and 35 to which tension is applied, the drive motor 38 is moved away from the movable member 30. Even in the installed state, the movable member 30 can realize an accurate operation by the tension of the wire.
In addition, since the wires 34 and 35 are accommodated in the spring 127 at a portion installed inside the movable member 30, the movable member 30 may be damaged due to friction between the wires 34 and 35 and the movable member 30. It is possible to reproduce smooth movement without any problem.
Furthermore, the movable member 30 can rotationally drive two types of cams having different shapes by a single drive motor 38, and can move different movable parts at different timings. Specifically, in the first embodiment, the doll's right arm is contracted and the right leg is lowered in the “standby state”, the right arm is extended and the right leg is lowered in the “punch state”, and the right arm is contracted and the right leg is lowered in the “kick state”. Three poses can be expressed. Therefore, various effects can be achieved while using only one drive source, and the player is not bored.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, a pachinko machine according to a second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. In the following description, the same reference numerals as those of the pachinko machine 1 according to the first embodiment in FIGS. 1 to 35 denote the same or corresponding parts as those of the pachinko machine 1 according to the first embodiment. It is.

The schematic configuration of the pachinko machine according to the second embodiment is substantially the same as that of the pachinko machine 1 according to the first embodiment. Various control processes are also substantially the same as the pachinko machine 1 according to the first embodiment.
However, the pachinko machine according to the second embodiment is different from the pachinko machine 1 according to the first embodiment in that a push-pull cable 135 is used instead of a wire as means for moving the movable member 30.

  Hereinafter, the movable mechanism of the movable member 30 using the push-pull cable 135 according to the second embodiment will be described using the right arm movable portion 32 as an example. FIG. 36 and FIG. 37 are schematic views showing one aspect when the right arm movable portion according to the second embodiment is movable. In FIGS. 36 and 37, only the minimum necessary members are shown for easy explanation of the movable mechanism, and the other members are not shown.

  As shown in FIGS. 36 and 37, a cam 136 having an elliptical shape is attached to the drive shaft 38 </ b> A of the drive motor 38. The cam 136 has a drive shaft 38A fixed to one end in the major axis direction, and the end of the push-pull cable 135 fixed to the other end. The push-pull cable 135 having one end fixed to the cam 136 is supported by the support groove 98 of the second right arm movable portion 84 and the wire support portion 90 formed in the hollow portion 89 of the first right arm movable portion 83. The end is fixed to the wire fixing portion 91.

  Here, the push-pull cable 135 is a cable that can generate a force in a pulling direction or a pushing direction in the other end by giving a pushing operation or a pulling operation to one end. Therefore, it is possible to perform a complicated operation with a simpler mechanism than a normal wire that basically generates only a pulling force.

As shown in FIG. 36, when the cam 136 is rotationally driven by the drive motor 38 and the push-pull cable 135 is pushed, the first right arm movable portion that is rotatably supported around the shaft rods 96 and 97. 83 and the second right arm movable portion 84 are held in a straight line so that the wire fixing portion 91 is located further away from the cam 136. As a result, the state where the right arm is extended is expressed by the right arm movable portion 32 (see FIG. 36).
In the second embodiment, since the push-pull cable 135 can apply a force in the pushing direction, the right arm movable portion 32 is biased in the direction of extending when there is no wire tension as in the first embodiment. The helical springs 125 and 126 are not necessary.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 37, when the cam 136 is rotated by the drive of the drive motor 38 and the push-pull cable 135 is pulled, the wire fixing portion 91 is moved so as to be positioned close to the cam 136. . Specifically, the second right arm movable portion 84 rotates counterclockwise with respect to the fixed portion 31, and the first right arm movable portion 83 rotates clockwise with respect to the second right arm movable portion 84. As a result, the state where the right arm is contracted is expressed by the right arm movable portion 32 (see FIG. 37).

As described above, in the pachinko machine 1 according to the third embodiment, when the drive motor 38 is driven at the time of production by the pachinko machine 1 (at the time of symbol fluctuation in the second embodiment), the push-pull cable 135 is moved according to the rotation of the cam 136. Push or pull. And since the force of a pushing direction and a pulling direction is each given with respect to the right arm movable part 32 to which the end of the push pull cable 135 was fixed, also in the state which installed the drive motor 38 in the place away from the movable member 30 The movable member 30 can realize an accurate operation.
Further, the push-pull cable 135 can apply a force in two directions, ie, a pushing direction and a pulling direction, compared with a case where a simple string-like member such as a wire is used, so that the drive mechanism Can be simple.
Furthermore, even if the push-pull cable 135 is arranged along a complicated path, it can be operated normally, so that the arrangement of the movable member 30 and the drive motor 38 can be freely set.

In addition, this invention is not limited to the said Example, Of course, various improvement and deformation | transformation are possible within the range which does not deviate from the summary of this invention.
For example, in the first embodiment, the wires 34 and 35 are fixed to the wire fixing portion 40 provided on the special symbol display device 25 at the other end located on the opposite side to the one end fixed to the movable member 30, and the cam 36. The other end of the wires 34 and 35 is attached to the cam attached to the drive shaft of the drive motor as in the push-pull cable 135 according to the second embodiment of FIGS. 36 and 37. May be fixed. When the cam to which the wires 34 and 35 are fixed is driven to rotate by the drive motor, tension is applied to the wires 34 and 35 based on the rotation angle of the cam, and the movable member 30 moves as described above.

  In the first and second embodiments, the movable member 30 is moved when the symbol on the special symbol display device 25 is changed. For example, the power of the drive motor 38 is turned on during a reach effect or a big hit effect. The movable member 30 may be moved.

  In addition, the movable member 30 has two movable parts such as the right arm movable part 32 and the right foot movable part 33. For example, in addition to the first cam 119 and the second cam 120, the third part can be a third part. By further providing a cam, the left arm and the left foot of the movable member 30 can be moved.
