Description

    The present invention relates to a ball game machine in which a game is played by a player launching a game ball on a game board surface.

    There are various types of ball game machines, such as pinball and smart ball, but pachinko machines are widely known. Pachinko machines use various prize-winning devices (yakumono) to enhance the fun of gaming. As a prize-winning device, symbols are variably displayed on a variable display provided on the game board surface, a stop symbol is determined according to the result of electronic lottery, and a privilege such as opening an attacker is given to the player according to the stop symbol. Things and so-called feathers that make it easy to win a prize by opening and closing the blades that block the prize opening are gaining popularity.

    The present invention relates to a single-blade pachinko machine. The winning device, which is said to be a wing, has a space (specific area) where the pachinko balls can easily flow through the winning opening that is opened when the wing is opened. And are provided. Then, about 1 to 3 starting winning holes are provided in the gaming area where the pachinko balls launched by the player flow down, and when the pachinko balls win in these starting winning holes, the blades that block the winning areas in the specific area Open and close once or twice. In the meantime, if a pachinko ball enters from the winning opening, the winning ball is won and the prize ball is paid out, and the pachinko ball flows into the specific area. When a pachinko ball enters a contact hole provided in a specific area, the blades start opening and closing in contact mode. In the winning mode, for example, the blades are repeatedly opened and closed up to 18 times, and the winning holes in the specific area are intermittently opened, so that it becomes easy to win.

While the wings open and close in the hit mode, a lot of pachinko balls flow into the specific area, but if it enters the hit area further, the game will continue in the hit mode after the end of the round mode. Will be able to do. Note that the round hit mode of the round is determined when 10 pachinko balls flow in from a prize opening in a specific area while the opening and closing of the predetermined 18 blades is completed or while the blades are opening and closing. Although the mode ends, as described above, if there is a pachinko ball in the hit port during the hit mode, the mode is changed to the second round hit mode. The number of rounds in the winning mode is limited to a maximum of 15 times, and after the pachinko ball wins the winning mouth during the hitting mode, it is determined by the lottery means such as 3, 7, and 15 times ( Patent Document 1).
JP 11-319232 A

    However, with this type of conventional pachinko machine, there are only one pair of winning holes in a specific area. Therefore, depending on how the obstacle nails are provided on the game board, it is very easy to win a starting prize hole or a specific area. Pachinko spheres did not flow into the mouth, and pachinko spheres that flowed into a specific area were in the form of hitting or losing mouth only by chance, so the possibility (probability) of entering the hit mode and the hit mode There was a disadvantage that it was not interesting for the player who was less likely to repeat.

    The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and provides a plurality of winning holes for a specific area, and the probability of winning / losing depending on which winning hole the pachinko ball wins. The goal is to provide a gaming machine that can further enhance the interests of the player, as it requires a skill to determine which prize opening in a specific area by making a difference.

In order to achieve the above object, the ball game machine (pachinko machine) of the present invention has an inflow of game balls when the winning opening is closed with a blade in the game area where the game balls (pachinko balls) flow down. And when the blades are opened, it is easy to obtain a prize through the prize opening and at the same time, a specific area that is divided so that a game ball that has passed through the prize opening flows into the game area. A winning prize opening provided outside the specific area, for starting and opening the blades a predetermined number of times by winning a game ball, and a winning opening and a lost opening provided in the specific area are provided at the winning opening. In a ball game machine in which the blades are opened and closed in a manner that is more advantageous to the player than when the game ball enters the winning prize opening,
The start winning opening is composed of a first starting opening and a second starting opening, and the winning opening is provided with a first winning opening provided with a first blade that starts and opens in response to winning in the first starting opening. A game ball that has flowed from the first winning opening into the specific area, and includes a second winning opening having a second blade that opens and closes in response to a winning at the second starting opening. Is provided with a guiding means for guiding the player to enter the winning hole with a higher probability than the game ball flowing in from the second winning opening.

    The ball game machine (pachinko machine) of the present invention includes a first blade that opens and closes by a first and second starter and a pachinko ball winning in the first starter in a game area where the pachinko ball flows down. A specific area having a first prize opening provided with a second prize opening provided with a second blade that opens and closes when a pachinko ball is awarded to the second start opening, and hits the specific area. A pachinko ball that has flowed in from the first winning port has a higher probability of winning in the hit hole provided in the specific area than a pachinko ball that has flowed in from the second winning port. Since it is characterized by its highness, the player needs to have the skill to determine which prize opening in a specific area, which can further enhance the player's interest.

    In addition, for game stores, there are a pair of winning holes in a specific area in the conventional gaming machine, so it is difficult for a pachinko ball to win a winning hole depending on how the obstacle nails arranged on the gaming board are adjusted. In some cases, the pachinko machine was cut off from the game's excitement, and conversely, pachinko balls could easily win the prize opening. By making multiple winning holes in a specific area, it is possible to adjust the degree of winning at the winning holes by adjusting the above obstacle nails, etc. It is also possible not to incur a disadvantage.

    Hereinafter, an example of an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows the external appearance of a ball game machine (pachinko machine) 10, and FIG. 8 shows that the pachinko ball passes through each winning opening and winning hole through a control system for controlling various functions and games of the pachinko machine 10. It is sometimes shown in a block diagram along with a detector that detects pachinko balls. All the game modes and functions of the pachinko machine 10 are controlled by the main control unit 70 and the sub-control unit 71, but all these controls are controlled by the CPU 100 in the main control device 72.

    Based on these drawings, first, an outline of the game flow of the pachinko machine 10 will be described. The pachinko machine 10 is provided with two game modes, a normal mode and a winning mode. In the normal mode, the first blade 3a of the first winning port 12a or the second blade 3b of the second winning port 12b of the specific area 12 provided on the front surface of the game board 1 is closed, and a pachinko ball launching device ( A game ball (pachinko ball) 9 launched by an operation handle H (not shown) is guided along the guide rail 15 to the game area 11 on the game board 1. The pachinko ball 9 flows down the game area 11 while being obstructed by other obstacles such as a number of obstacle nails and windmills (not shown) provided in the game area 11.

    When the pachinko ball 9 wins the normal winning opening 2c, it is detected by the detector 21c provided in the normal winning opening 2c, and the signal is transmitted to the CPU 100, and the winning ball payout control device 107 is activated in advance. A predetermined number of prize balls (for example, five balls) are discharged to the supply tray 13. The first starting port detector 21a or the second starting port detector provided at each starting winning port that the pachinko ball 9 has won the starting winning port 2a (first starting port) or 2b (second starting port) When detected by the CPU 21b, the signal is transmitted to the CPU 100, the prize ball payout control device 107 is activated, and a predetermined number (for example, five) of prize balls are discharged to the supply tray 13 and from the CPU 100. The first blade solenoid 31a or the second blade solenoid 31b is actuated by the command, and the first blade 3a of the first winning port 12a provided in the specific area 12 or the second blade 3b provided in the second winning port 12b Opening and closing starts and a special mode is created that gives the right to enter the hit mode (described later). In FIG. 1, the first blade 3a of the first winning port 12a is open and the second blade 3b of the second winning port 12b is closed, that is, when a pachinko ball wins the first starting port 2a. Represents. Pachinko balls that have not won any of the normal winning opening 2c, the first starting opening 2a, or the second starting opening 2b are discharged from the out opening 14 as out balls.

    In the special mode, the first blade 3a or the second blade 3b is opened and closed by repeating a predetermined number of times (for example, 1 to 2 times) within a predetermined time (for example, 1 to 2 seconds). It returns to the closed state. While the first blade 3a or the second blade 3b is open, the pachinko ball 9 that has flowed into the specific region 12 from the first winning port 12a or the second winning port 12b is a first guiding path (first guide member) 4a. And 5a or the second guide path (second guide member) 4b and 5b are provided with a guide hole 61 for guiding the pachinko sphere 9 to the hitting opening where the hit mode is generated or to the lost opening where the hit mode is not generated. It is guided to the disk 6a. The first guide members 4a and 5a are configured to have a higher probability that the pachinko ball 9 is guided to the guide hole 61 of the disk 6a than the second guide members 4b and 5b.

    Detectors 121a and 121b are respectively provided in the first winning port 12a and the second winning port 12b, and when it is detected that pachinko balls have passed through the respective winning ports, those signals are transmitted to the CPU 100, A predetermined number of prize balls (for example, five balls) are discharged to the supply tray 13 by operating the prize ball payout control device 107, and the number of pachinko balls passed through is the winning mouth inflow ball counter 104. Will be counted by. Here, the winning mode is a game mode provided separately from the special mode, and is a game mode that is started after a predetermined time (for example, 1 to 2 seconds) after the special mode ends. Then, all the blades provided at each prize opening are opened or closed more times (for example, 18 times) than the special mode within a predetermined time period (for example, 30 seconds), or all prize holes are opened in the meantime. When the total number of pachinko balls that have passed is counted for a predetermined number (for example, 10), the opening and closing of the blades is finished as one round.

    The disc 6a is provided with a plurality of guide holes 61 in advance, and the disc 6a itself is driven to rotate in the same direction as the clockwise direction by a disc rotating motor 621 around the center 62 of the disc 6a at a constant cycle. It has become so. In this embodiment, the rotational drive of the disk 6a is controlled by the CPU 100 to start when the special mode or the hit mode is started and to stop when the special mode or the hit mode ends. For this reason, it is not limited to this.

      A non-rotating disk 6b is provided below the disk 6a, and a contact hole 61a is provided at one position of the disk 6b. Then, the pachinko ball 9 that has entered the guide hole 61 of the disk 6a is guided to the contact opening 61a of the disk 6b along the wall 63 as the disk 6a rotates. If the pachinko ball 9 wins the winning slot 61a, a hit mode is generated, but if the winning hole 61a does not win, it leads to the loser opening 65 provided in the groove 64 provided outside the disk 6a. He is treated as a lose ball.

    When the pachinko ball 9 that has flowed into the specific area 12 from the winning opening with the blades open while the special mode is performed, for example, wins a hitting hole 61a provided in the disk 6b, the pachinko ball 9 It is detected that a winning is made by a hitting detector 611a provided in the hitting guide path 66 after flowing down a hitting guide path 66 (described later) provided in the lower part of the disk 6b. The detection signal is transmitted to the CPU 100, the prize ball payout control device 107 is operated, and a predetermined number (for example, 15) of prize balls are discharged to the supply tray 13 and the first hit mode is started. Life is committed. Then, the pachinko ball 9 is further guided down to the lottery means start detector 106 which starts the lottery means 102 by flowing down the hitting guide path 66. When the lottery means start detector 106 detects the passage of the pachinko ball 9, the signal is The CPU 100 is notified and the player stage 102 is started. In the lottery means 102, the maximum number of rounds is set to 15, and the number of rounds in the hit mode is repeated, for example, 3 times, 7 times, and 15 times. The number of times to be drawn is randomly selected by the random number generating means stored in advance in the lottery means 102 as software. However, the number of rounds in the hit mode can be obtained as a right, and the actual round of the round in the hit mode is generated as a right when the pachinko ball 9 wins a hit in the hit mode. It is a game mode in which the next hit mode is born.

    If no pachinko ball 9 flows into the specific area 12, or if it does not win the winning slot 61a of the disk 6b and enters the loser slot 65 even if it flows, the hit mode is not generated. In other words, the winning mode is a mode in which the winning mode of the next round that is obtained as a right is generated only when the pachinko ball 9 wins the winning mouth while the special mode or the winning mode is made. ing.

    The modes of the normal mode, special mode, and hit mode are stored as software in the memory 101 connected to the CPU 100, and the predetermined time and the number of times of opening and closing the blades are preset as parameters. Parameters can be changed within defined limits. The prize ball payout control device 107 and various control devices related to the special mode and the winning mode are such that the CPU 100 receives signals from the detectors provided at the related starting port, winning port and winning port, etc. The CPU 100 issues a command and is operated based on the software.

    Next, one embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 2 to 8 as to the mode for repeating the transition to the hit mode and the hit mode round of the present invention. Since the mode of the special mode and the hit mode is as described above, the detailed description of the mode is omitted here. FIG. 2 shows a case where the pachinko ball 9 wins the first starting port 2a. When the detector 21a detects that a pachinko ball has won the first starting port 2a, the detection signal is transmitted to the CPU 100, and the prize ball payout control device 107 is activated and predetermined by a command from the CPU 100. A number of (for example, five) prize balls are discharged to the supply tray 13 and the first blade 3a of the first winning opening 12a is closed in the normal mode when the first blade solenoid 31a (FIG. 8) is activated. It is opened and closed as a special mode. On the other hand, the second blade 3b of the second winning opening 12b is kept closed. FIG. 3 shows a state in which the first blade 3a is once closed. As described above, in the special mode, the blade 3a is opened and closed once or twice, and the first blade 3a is opened while the blade 3a is open. As shown in FIG. 3, the pachinko ball 9 that has flowed into the specific area 12 from the first prize opening 12a is guided to the disk 6a through the path of the first guide member 4a → 5a. The disk 6a is driven to rotate in the clockwise direction by the disk rotation motor 621 about the center 62 of the disk, and the rotation drive is started at the same time as the start of the special mode in response to a command from the CPU 100. . The disk 6a is provided with five guide holes 61 along the circumference. The size of the guide hole 61 is just such that one pachinko ball can pass through.

    FIG. 6 shows the state of the guiding means in which the pachinko ball 9 is guided to the disk 6a by the first guide member 5a or the second guide member 5b. The pachinko ball that has flowed down the first guide member 5a is shown in FIG. A pachinko ball that has flowed down the two guide members 5b is indicated by 9b. FIG. 7 is a diagram schematically showing a cross-sectional view for easy understanding of the flow of the pachinko sphere guided to the disk 6a. The end portion 51a on the disk 6a side of the first guide member 5a is disposed near the periphery of the upper surface of the disk 6a, and the pachinko ball 9a flowing down the first guide member 5a is always guided to the upper surface of the disk 6a. Therefore, the pachinko ball 9a is easy to enter any one of the guide holes 61. On the other hand, the end portion 51b of the second guide member 5b is provided on a groove 64 provided outside the circumferential portion of the disk 6a, and the pachinko ball 9b flowing down the second guide member 5b is always present. The structure enters the groove 64.

    As schematically shown in FIG. 7, the upper surface of the disk 6a is flat at the center, but is inclined downward toward the circumference, and a wall 63 is provided outside the disk 6a. The pachinko ball 9a that is provided and guided to the upper surface of the disk 6a enters one of the guide holes 61 and is guided in the clockwise direction along the wall 63 as the disk 6a rotates. The wall 63 is provided with an opening 63a at one location.

    A non-rotating disk 6b is provided below the disk 6a, and a contact hole 61a is provided at one location near the circumference. The upper surface of the disk 6b is also flat at the center but is inclined downwardly toward the circumference.

    Accordingly, the pachinko ball 9a that has entered one of the guide holes 61 of the disk 6a is guided in the clockwise direction along the wall 63 as the disk 6a rotates, but as shown in FIG. Pachinko balls that have entered the guide hole 61 at a position in front of the provided contact hole 61a and at a position behind the loser hole 65 provided in the groove 64 are likely to win the contact hole 61a, but are behind the contact hole 61a. Thus, the pachinko ball 9 a that has entered the guide hole 61 at a position in front of the losing port 65 easily enters the losing port 65.

    The groove 64 is a slightly wider groove than one pachinko ball, and is gently inclined downward toward the loser opening 65 provided in a part of the groove 64, so that the pachinko ball 9b entering the groove 64 is It is a guide member that rolls along the groove 64 toward the loss port 65 and is gently inclined toward the disk 6a. The pachinko ball 9b that has entered the groove 64 rotates along the groove 64 and is guided to the losing port 65, but the guide hole 61 provided in the disk 6a is opened so that it can also enter the groove 64. Since the disk 6a is rotated, the pachinko ball 9b that has fallen into the groove 64 is given a chance to enter the guide hole 61 of the disk 6a before reaching the loser opening 65 provided in the groove 64. Yes. The pachinko ball 9b that did not enter any of the guide holes 61 while rotating the groove 64 enters the losing port 65 provided in the groove 64, and flows down the losing port guiding path 67 provided at the lower part of the losing port 65. It is processed as a lost ball.

    As schematically shown in FIG. 7, the pachinko ball 91a having won the hitting opening 61a enters the hitting guide path 66 provided at the lower part of the disk 6b. The contact guide path 66 is provided with a contact detector 611a. When the contact detector 611a detects that the pachinko ball 91a has passed, the detection signal is transmitted to the CPU 100, and a command from the CPU 100 is received. , The prize ball discharge control device 107 is actuated to discharge a predetermined number (for example, 15) of prize balls to the supply tray 13 and end the special mode according to the regulation, for a predetermined time (for example, 1-2). Seconds), the first round hit mode is started. The rotation of the disk 6a also stops once when the special mode ends, and starts rotating simultaneously with the occurrence of the hit mode. Then, the pachinko ball 91a that has flowed down the hitting guide path 66 is guided to a lottery stage start detector 106 that starts the lottery means 102.

    When the lottery means start detector 106 detects the passage of the pachinko ball 91a, the detection signal is transmitted to the CPU 100, and the lottery means 102 is started by an instruction from the CPU 100. In the lottery means 102, the number of rounds for repeating the hit mode of, for example, three times, seven times, and fifteen times up to a maximum of 15 times is selected by the random number generating means stored in advance in the lottery means 102 as software. The For example, if the lottery means 102 obtains the right to repeat the mode for 3 rounds, either the blades are open during the first round hit mode that was created following the special mode. When the pachinko ball 9 flows into the specific area 12 from the winning opening and the pachinko ball 9 wins the winning slot 61a, the occurrence of the second round hit mode is guaranteed and the first round hit mode ends according to the regulations. Then, after a predetermined time (for example, 1 to 2 seconds) elapses, the second round hit mode is started. As described above, the rotation of the disk 6a is started / stopped in synchronization with the start and end of the hit mode.

    By the way, while the hit mode is being performed, a maximum of 10 pachinko balls pass through any one of the winning holes and flow into the specific area 12, and some of them hit the hit hole 61a. A number of pieces enter the lose mouth 65, but if even one piece wins the winning slot, the winning mode of the next round obtained as a right is started. In other words, if a number of pachinko balls, for example, 4 pachinko balls, enter the winning slot 61a, 4 × 15 = 60 winning balls are discharged, but the winning mode is guaranteed only for the next round. It is supposed to be done. If no single pachinko ball wins the hit slot 61a of the specific area 12 during the first round hit mode, the right to repeat the above three round hit mode is obtained. However, the subsequent hit modes including the second round will not occur. The same applies to the case where the second round is being performed, and if the pachinko ball does not win the opening 61a during that time, the third round hit mode will not occur. In other words, the right of how many rounds the hit mode is repeated is set by the lottery means, such as 3, 7 or 15 times, but the occurrence of the hit mode after the hit mode in the first round is determined by the win mode. In this mode, the winning mode of the next round obtained as a right is performed only when a pachinko ball wins the winning slot 61a.

    On the other hand, if the pachinko ball 9 wins the winning slot 61a during the period in which the hit mode is performed and the number of rounds of the hit mode is set again by the lottery means 102, the hits obtained so far The repeat round number is set by adding the newly set repeat round number to the repeat round number of the mode. For example, the right of the number of repeated rounds of three times is obtained first, and a pachinko ball wins the winning slot 61a while the hit mode is performed, and the right of the number of repeated rounds of seven more is obtained by the lottery means 102. If it is obtained, the total number of repeat rounds is set to 10 times, which is 7 times added to the previous 3 times. The total number of repeated rounds is set so that a hit mode will not occur beyond a predetermined maximum number of rounds (for example, 15 rounds).

    As described above, the hit mode repeat round is generated each time the pachinko ball wins the hit mouth 61a while the hit mode is performed up to a maximum of 15 times. If no pachinko ball is won in the hit hole 61a during the round, no subsequent hit mode rounds will occur. In order to start a new hit mode, it is necessary to start a special mode by awarding a pachinko ball to the starting port again. In addition, when a pachinko ball wins either the first start port 2a or the second start port 2b during the period in which the special mode and the hit mode are started and repeated, the supply plate 13 of the predetermined prize ball is set. Will be released, but will not contribute to the occurrence or repetition of the special mode or hit mode.

    FIG. 4 shows a case where the pachinko ball 9 wins the second start port 2b. When it is detected that the pachinko ball 9 has won the second starting port 2b, the detection signal is transmitted to the CPU 100, and the prize ball payout control device 107 is operated by a command from the CPU 100 to determine a predetermined number ( (For example, 5) prize balls are paid out to the supply tray 13, and the second blade solenoid 31b of the other second prize opening 12b of the specific area 12 is driven to set the second prize hall 12b as the special mode. The blade 3b is opened and closed. At the same time, the disk rotating motor 621 is also driven, and the disk 6a starts rotating. In this case, the first blade 3a remains closed.

    FIG. 5 shows a state in which the second blade 3b is once closed, but as described above, in the special mode, the second blade 3b is opened and closed once or twice, and the second blade 3b is open. As shown in FIG. 5, the pachinko ball 9 that has flowed into the specific area 12 from the second winning opening 12b is guided to the vicinity of the disk 6a through the path of the second guide member 4b → 5b. The end portion 51b on the disk 6a side of the second guide member 5b is disposed on the upper portion of the groove 64 on the outer side of the disk 6a, and a partition is provided between the groove 64 and the end portion 51b of the second guide member 5b. It is partitioned by a plate 51c. In the groove 64, a losing port 65 is disposed. The end 51 b of the second guide member 5 b and the gap opening 65 are provided with a distance that is slightly larger than one pachinko ball along the groove 64.

    As described above with reference to FIGS. 6 and 7, the groove 64 is configured such that the pachinko ball 9b rotates along the groove 64 toward the loser opening 65 and rolls toward the disk 6a. Therefore, the pachinko ball 9b flowing down from the second guide member 5b once enters the groove 64 and then goes to the losing port 65. However, since the disk 6a rotates at a constant period, it is provided on the disk 6a. When any one of the guide holes 61 accidentally comes between the end 51b of the second guide member 5b and the loose opening 65, there is also a chance that the pachinko ball 9b enters the guide hole 61. Since the disk 6a rotates in the clockwise direction, the pachinko ball 9b that enters the groove 64 from the second guide member 5b on the left side in FIG. 6 and enters the guide hole 61 is accompanied by the rotation of the disk 6a. While being along the wall 63, it is guided toward the contact hole 61a. If the pachinko ball 9b moves momentarily and passes through the losing port 65, the pachinko ball 9b is bounced back by the partition plate 51c provided at the end of the second guide member on the right side in the direction of the losing port 65. Returned. Conversely, the pachinko ball 9b that has entered the groove 64 from the second guide member 5b on the right side is guided to the losing port 65. The pachinko ball 9b that has passed through the losing port 65 due to the rotational movement of the pachinko ball 9b is rebounded by the partition plate 51c of the left second guide member.

    In this way, the pachinko ball 9 that has flowed into the second winning opening 12b enters the guide hole 61 of the disk 6a only from the groove 64, and is given a chance to win the winning opening 61a provided in the disk 6b. . Therefore, the pachinko ball 9 that has flowed into the specific area 12 from the first winning opening 12a has a structure that has a higher chance (probability) to win the winning hole 61a than the pachinko ball 9 that has flowed into the specific area 12 from the second winning opening 12b. ing. The occurrence of the special mode and the hit mode when the pachinko ball 9 wins the second starting port 2b is the same as the case where the pachinko ball 9 wins the first starting port 12a, and the pachinko ball 9 Since the game mode after the ball 9 wins the winning slot 61a or after entering the loser 65 is the same as the case where the pachinko ball 9 flows into the first winning slot 12a, the description is omitted. .

    As described above, in the embodiment of the present invention, the winning of the pachinko ball 9 to the first starting port 2a which is one of the starting winning ports is the inflow of the pachinko ball to the first winning port 12a of the special area 12.
