Description

  The present invention relates to a display device for a gaming machine, and more particularly to a display device for a gaming machine in which a strip-like body is arranged in front of a display surface to enrich the display effect.

  Conventionally, in a gaming machine, for example, a ball game machine, when a plurality of identification symbols are variably displayed and the combination of identification symbols at the time of stoppage is a combination of predetermined jackpot information, a specific gaming state (a jackpot gaming state Many things are provided that give players a chance to generate a large number of winning balls in a short time. An image display such as a liquid crystal display (LCD) or a cathode ray tube display (CRT) is used as a display device for displaying the identification symbol. According to such an image display, an image including an identification symbol can be freely displayed by software.

  By the way, since the above-mentioned image display only represents the image on the flat display surface, there is a possibility that the effect by the image becomes monotonous. In view of this, a technique has been proposed in which a shutter unit that moves so as to cross the display surface of the display unit is disposed in front of the display unit, and the design of the display surface is hidden by the shutter unit (see Patent Documents 1 to 4).

  In the gaming machine described in Patent Document 1, a door (shutter portion) that can be opened and closed using a rack and pinion mechanism is arranged on the display surface of the image display.

  The gaming machine described in Patent Document 2 includes an exciting coil wound up in a cylindrical shape, a metal mandrel inserted into the exciting coil, a spring for urging the mandrel to one side of the exciting coil, and the excitation A solenoid including a coil and a case containing the mandrel and the like, and a substantially rectangular door (shutter portion) connected to the mandrel are provided. Usually, the mandrel inserted into the exciting coil is stored in the case by a spring provided in the case. In addition, when an excitation current is input to the excitation coil, the excitation coil is magnetized to project the mandrel out of the case. That is, the shutter unit connected to the mandrel is opened and closed depending on whether or not an excitation current is input.

In the gaming machines described in Patent Documents 3 and 4, three rails are juxtaposed in the front-rear direction (the player side is the front and the game board side is the rear) on both the left and right sides across the opening, and along the rails. There is a shutter device in which a shield plate (shutter portion) that moves up and down is provided on each rail. Each shutter part is provided with an opening engaging piece projecting forward and a first closing engaging piece projecting rearward at the upper part, and a second closing engaging piece projecting forward is provided at the lower part of each shutter part. Is provided. When the shutter portion is moved downward, the first closing engagement piece of the front shutter portion and the second closing engagement piece of the rear shutter portion of the adjacent shutter portions are engaged with each other, and thereby the shutter. The parts are sequentially sent downward to close the opening. Conversely, when the shutter part is moved upward, the first closing engagement piece of the front shutter part and the opening engagement piece of the rear shutter part are engaged with each other among the adjacent shutter parts. Are sequentially sent upward to open the opening.

  However, in the gaming machine as described above, since the shutter unit only reciprocates in a predetermined direction (vertical or horizontal direction), there is a possibility that the effect due to the movement of the shutter unit becomes monotonous.

  In addition, since the shutter unit always displays only one side on the player side, even if the pattern applied to the shutter unit changes in accordance with the movement of the shutter unit, the effect due to the change is limited. End up. As a result, as the player continues to play the game, he / she does not feel the freshness of the effect produced by the shutter unit, and there is a possibility that the production will become bored.

  The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problem as an example, and it is intended to provide a display device for a gaming machine that can provide various effects by effectively making a game symbol visible and hidden. It is aimed.

  The front frame 3 is provided with a game board 4 whose board surface is a game area. Below the front frame 3, an upper plate 5 for temporarily storing bullets to be supplied to the gaming machine (hereinafter also referred to as gaming balls), and a part of the bullets discharged as prize balls from the gaming machine 1 are stored. A lower tray (not shown), an ashtray 6, a bullet launching device (not shown) for launching bullets to the top of the game board, and an operation handle 7 for operating the bullet launching device are provided.

  The game board 4 is provided with nails, windmills, etc. (not shown), and a display device 8 that displays a game image composed of various symbols and patterns in the middle of the game board 4 in accordance with the progress of the game. Is provided. The display device 8 includes a display surface 9 for displaying a game image, and a plurality of strips 10 arranged on the display surface and capable of covering the display surface 9.

  The display device 8 is provided on the back side of the plywood forming the game board 4 and is disposed so as to close an opening (not shown) provided in the approximate center of the plywood from the back side. The display device 8 is visible from the front side through the opening. In addition, it is good also as arrange | positioning the decoration part 11 which is engage | inserted by this opening part and decorates the circumference | surroundings of this opening part on the front side of a plywood. In addition, although the display surface 9 is shown as a rectangular display surface in the figure, it is not limited to this, For example, it is good also as an elliptical display surface and a polygonal display surface. In addition, in order to simplify the following description, it is assumed that the vertical direction and the horizontal direction are determined with reference to the display surface 9 when viewed from the front.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the display device 8 is a display device having a display surface 9 for displaying an image corresponding to an image signal, such as a liquid crystal display (LCD), a cathode ray tube display (CRT), or an electroluminescence display (ELD). 12 and first and second rotating shafts 13 and 14 extending in parallel to each other in the direction parallel to the display surface 9 of the display device 12. Each of the first and second rotating shafts 13 and 14 is rotatably supported at one end by bearings 15 and 16, and the other end is connected to the first and second rotating motors 19 and 20 via gears 17 and 18. Has been. By rotating the first and second rotary motors 19 and 20, the first and second rotary shafts 13 and 14 can be rotationally driven. The bearing portions 15 and 16 and the first and second rotary motors 19 and 20 are supported by a frame portion 21. Hereinafter, the side on which the rotary motor is provided is referred to as the proximal end side, and the side on which the bearing portion is provided is referred to as the distal end side.

  The first rotating shaft 13 is, for example, a screw shaft provided with a groove in a screw shape. The second rotating shaft 14 is provided with five grooves extending in the longitudinal direction on the outer peripheral surface thereof. The first and second rotating shafts 13 and 14 are provided with a plurality of movable bodies 22 that are movable along the longitudinal direction of these rotating shafts.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the movable body 22 is provided with first and second through holes 23 and 24 through which the first and second rotating shafts 13 and 14 pass. Each movable body 22 is provided with a rotation transmission mechanism having a rotation axis extending in the vertical direction in a plane that intersects the second rotation axis 14 and is parallel to the display surface 9.

  The rotation transmission mechanism includes a worm 26 having a second through hole 24 formed with a rib 25 that engages with a groove of the second rotating shaft 14, and a worm wheel 27 that meshes with the worm 26. The holding means 28 integrally formed with the worm wheel 27 is connected. The worm wheel 27 is a rotating shaft of the holding means 28. The holding means 28 holds one end of the strip-shaped body 10, whereby the angle around the axis along the longitudinal direction of the strip-shaped body 10 is variable. When the second rotating shaft 14 rotates, the strip-shaped body 10 is rotationally driven via the rotation transmission mechanism. That is, the rotation transmission mechanism converts the rotary motion of the second rotary shaft 14 into the rotary motion of the strip 10.

  As described above, the strips 10 are attached to the movable bodies 22, and the plurality of strips 10 are juxtaposed in front of the display 12. The strip 10 may be made of a metal plate, a plastic plate, a wood plate, or the like. The strip 10 may be made of a transparent member that allows visible light to pass through almost completely, a translucent member that allows only a portion of visible light to pass through, and an opaque member that completely blocks visible light.

  In addition, it is good also as a different pattern being drawn by both the main surfaces of the front and back of the strip-shaped object 10. FIG. For example, the first symbol A may be drawn on one main surface, and the second symbol B may be drawn on the other main surface. Thereby, the strip-shaped body 10 can show a player one of two different symbols (the first symbol A or the second symbol B) by the rotation by the rotation transmission mechanism.

  Of the movable body 22 having the above-described configuration, the first through hole 23 of the most movable body (hereinafter referred to as the leading movable body) is a female screw (not shown) that is screwed into the first rotating shaft 13. )). The other inside of the first through hole 23 of the movable body 22 is a flat surface so that it can slide with respect to the first rotating shaft 13. The movable bodies 22 are connected to each other by a spacer 29 and a stopper 30 so that the distance between adjacent movable bodies 22 is constant. The spacer 29 defines the interval between the movable bodies 22 adjacent to each other. Further, the stopper 30 is arranged on the distal end side and defines a movable range by engaging with a protrusion 29a provided at the distal end of the adjacent spacer 29 of the movable body. When the leading movable body 22 moves toward the distal end side by the rotation of the first rotation shaft 13, the subsequent movable bodies 22 are sequentially sent out to the distal end side at regular intervals. When the leading movable body 22 moves toward the proximal end side, the succeeding movable bodies are sequentially pushed back to the leading movable body 22. With the configuration as described above, the movable body 22 can move in the longitudinal direction of the first and second rotating shafts 13 and 14. That is, each strip 10 can cross the front surface of the display surface 9 of the display 12 from side to side.

  As described above, the first and second rotary shafts 13 and 14, the movable body 22, and the rotation transmission mechanism constitute a rotation positioning mechanism, and the angle about the axis along the longitudinal direction of the strip-shaped body 10 is variable. In addition, the strip 10 can be positioned in a plane parallel to the display surface 9.

  Next, an embodiment of the operation of the display device as described above will be described. For example, the gaming machine 1 is triggered by an input of a start signal indicating that a game ball has passed a predetermined winning port (start winning port, etc.) to a control circuit device (not shown). The display device 8 is driven based on the supplied control signal.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the display device 8 collects and accommodates the movable body 22 on the proximal end side in a state where the control signal is not received. The main surface of the strip-shaped body 10 is perpendicular to the display surface 9 and is accommodated in a state in which one main surface of adjacent ones of the strip-shaped body 10 faces each other.

  When the control signal is supplied to the control means (not shown) of the display device 8, the control means supplies an image signal corresponding to a predetermined game state to the display 12 and displays it on the display surface 9. Change the design. At the same time, the control means drives the first rotary motor 19. When the first rotation motor 19 is driven, the leading movable body 22 moves from the proximal end side to the distal end side, and the subsequent movable bodies 22 are sequentially sent out toward the distal end side. After the leading movable body 22 moves to a predetermined position such as the left end portion of the display surface 9, the first rotary motor 19 stops (FIG. 5). At this time, the strip-shaped body 10 is sent out with the main surfaces facing each other as described above without rotating.

  Since the strips 10 are spaced apart at a predetermined interval and the main surface of the strips 10 is perpendicular to the display surface 9, the symbols displayed on the display surface 9 from between the adjacent strips 10 ( In the following, it can be visually recognized. In other words, even if the strip 10 is arranged in front of the display device 12, it is possible to display without completely hiding the fluctuation pattern of the display surface 9. In other words, two different effects, a dynamic effect due to the movement of the strip 10 and a display effect due to the changing pattern, can be performed simultaneously.

  Next, the strip-shaped body 10 is rotated by rotating the second rotary motor 20 in accordance with the content of the image corresponding to the image signal, that is, the changing pattern. As shown in FIG. 6, the strip 10 is rotated by 90 °, and one main surface of the strip 10 appears on the display 12, and the first symbol A drawn on the one main surface is the player. Is displayed. As a result, a symbol different from the variation symbol can be provided to the player, and the production can be changed. In addition, let the rotation direction which displays one main surface of the strips 10 as mentioned above be a forward direction.

  The second rotary motor 20 is further rotated in the forward direction or in the reverse direction opposite to the forward direction, and the main surface of the strip 10 is again arranged perpendicular to the display surface 9, and the strip 10 The change pattern of the display surface 9 can be shown to the player from between. Further, by rotating the second rotary motor 20 in the forward direction or the reverse direction, the other main surface (second symbol B) of the strip 10 can be displayed to the player as shown in FIG. As a result, the second symbol different from the variation symbol and the first symbol shown on the display 12 can be provided, and the display effect can be further changed.

  As described above, the symbol can be dynamically changed by the rotation of the strip 10. Further, by using both main surfaces of the strip 10, two symbols can be displayed on the display 12.

  From the state in which the main surface of the strip 10 is perpendicular to the display surface 9 as shown in FIG. 4, the second symbol B is displayed first by rotating the second rotary motor 20 in the reverse direction. Also good.

  A predetermined variation symbol (for example, a symbol indicating a specific gaming state), the first symbol A or the second symbol B is displayed, or the control means (not shown) of the display device 8 receives a stop signal from the control circuit device. As a result, the strips 10 are gathered on the proximal end side, and a series of operations is completed. In order to accommodate the strip 10, the second rotary motor 20 is driven to rotate the main surface of the strip 10 so as to be perpendicular to the display surface 9, and then the first rotary motor 19 is driven. The leading movable body 22 is moved to the proximal end side.

  The display device 8 described above can perform a dynamic effect by the arrangement of the strips 10 in addition to a static effect on the fixed surface by the variation pattern of the display 12. In other words, the display device 8 can use two different effect means, that is, an effect based on a fluctuating symbol and an effect based on the strip 10.

  The first symbol A and the second symbol B may be symbols including characters, for example. Further, the first symbol A may be a symbol indicating or suggesting a specific gaming state (big hit gaming state), and the second symbol B may be a symbol indicating or suggesting a normal gaming state (out of game state). . In this case, when the first symbol A is displayed, the gaming machine 1 may be in a specific gaming state and, for example, a predetermined number of prize balls may be paid out.

  Alternatively, the variation symbol and the first symbol may be alternately shown, or the variation symbol and the second symbol may be alternately indicated. Also, for example, the first symbol and the second symbol may be shown alternately with the variable symbol in between, such as repeating the order of the variable symbol, the first symbol, the variable symbol, and the second symbol.

  For example, if the variation symbol is a symbol indicating a normal gaming state and the first symbol is a symbol indicating a specific gaming state, the variation symbol and the first symbol are alternately displayed in a short time, It is also possible to gradually increase the time for displaying one of the symbols and finally stop and display either one of the symbols. By the movement of the strip-shaped body as described above, it is possible to perform a display that suggests that the final display result of the display device 12 becomes the specific gaming state or the normal gaming state.

  This is not the case where the main surface of the strip 10 is rotated 90 ° from the state in which the main surface is arranged perpendicular to the display surface, but is rotated in the forward direction (or reverse direction) by less than 90 ° (for example, 60 °) The display direction may be changed so as to cause the player to expect the first symbol (or the second symbol) to be displayed. Moreover, since the effect that the fluctuating symbol is made visible and hidden by the strip 10 can also be achieved, the effect of the display device 8 can be enhanced, such as allowing the player to watch the symbol. In other words, the player can be entertained as a result by dynamically changing the symbols by the display device 8.

  Note that the operation of the strip 10 described above may be linked to the effect by the changing symbol. For example, a case will be described in which the display surface 9 is divided into three parallel variable regions, and each of the variable regions can display a numerical symbol that sequentially changes. Note that a specific gaming state is defined when the same numerical symbols in the variable area group are statically displayed in a line.

  When the control signal is supplied from the control circuit device to the control means of the display device 8, the control means supplies an image signal to the display 12. The image signal includes contents indicating a numerical design that sequentially changes in the variable region group. Accordingly, the display 12 that has received such a video signal displays the numerical symbols in a variable area group. At this time, the control means drives the first rotary motor 19 and arranges the strips 10 so that the main surfaces are perpendicular to the display surface 9 while being spaced apart at regular intervals as shown in FIG. . When numerical symbols are stopped and displayed in two of the three variable regions, the main surface of the strip 10 is forwardly (or reverse) by 30 ° from the state in which the main surface of the strip 10 is arranged perpendicular to the display surface 9. After the rotation, the operation of rotating the same angle in the opposite direction is repeated.

  Furthermore, the rotation angle of the strip 10 is gradually increased as the variation interval of the numeric symbol in one variable area where the numerical symbol is displayed in a variable manner, for example, the strip in the forward or reverse direction up to 60 °. 10 is rotated. When a numerical design is stopped and displayed in one variable area, and the same numerical design is stopped and displayed in a row in the variable area group, the strip 10 is rotated 90 degrees in the forward direction to play a specific game. A first symbol A indicating the state is displayed to notify the player that the gaming machine has entered a specific gaming state. In addition, when the numerical symbols with different variable area groups are stopped and displayed in a row, the strip 10 is rotated 90 ° in the reverse direction to display the second symbol B indicating the normal gaming state, and the gaming machine normally The player is notified that the game state has been entered.

As described above, by moving the strip 10 according to the changing pattern, it is possible to provide a player with a complex presentation that combines a static presentation by the display 12 and a dynamic presentation by the strip 10.
(Example 2)
As shown in FIG. 8, the strips 10 may have different widths. In this case, the length of the spacer (not shown) is set in accordance with the width of the strips 10 so that adjacent strips 10 do not contact each other. Configurations other than those described above may be substantially the same as those in the first embodiment. According to this configuration, even if the rotation angles of the strips 10 are the same, the range of the display surface 9 that can be seen from between the strips 10 can be made different for each strip 10.
(Example 3)
As shown in FIG. 9, a guide portion 31 may be provided at the other end of the strip 10, and a guide rail 32 for guiding the guide portion 31 may be provided at the frame portion 21. The guide rail 32 extends in a direction parallel to the longitudinal direction of the first rotation shaft 19, and the guide portion 31 may slide in the guide rail 32. Configurations other than those described above may be substantially the same as those in the first embodiment.

By providing the guide part 31 and the guide rail 32, it is possible to prevent the strip 10 from swinging in a direction intersecting the first and second rotation shafts 13 and 14.
Example 4
As shown in FIG. 10, the display device 8 may be arranged such that the first and second rotating shafts 13 and 14 are spaced apart from each other so as to sandwich the display 12. Each of the first and second rotating shafts 13 and 14 is rotatably supported at one end by bearings 15 and 16 and the other end is attached to the first and second rotating motors 19 and 20 via gears 17 and 18. ing. The bearing portions 15 and 16 and the first and second rotary motors 19 and 20 are supported by a frame portion 21.

  The first rotary shaft 13 is provided with a plurality of first movable bodies 22a that are movable along the longitudinal direction of the rotary shaft. The first movable bodies 22a each have a through hole (not shown) that allows the first rotating shaft 13 to pass therethrough. Each first movable body 22a is provided with a rotation mechanism (not shown) having a rotation axis extending in a plane that intersects the first rotation axis 13 and is parallel to the display surface 9. The rotation mechanism includes first holding means 28a that protrudes from the first movable body 22a and is rotatable around the rotation axis. The first holding means 28 a holds one end of the strip 10.

  Of the first movable body 22 a configured as described above, the through hole of the first movable body 22 a on the distal end side is a female screw (not shown) that is screwed into the first rotating shaft 13. The other inside of the through hole of the first movable body 22a is a flat surface so that it can slide with respect to the first rotating shaft 13.

  The second rotary shaft 14 is provided with the same number of second movable bodies 22b as the first movable bodies 22a, which are movable along the longitudinal direction of the rotary shaft. Each of the second movable bodies 22b is provided with a through hole (not shown) that allows the second rotating shaft 14 to pass therethrough. Each of the second movable bodies 22b is provided with a rotation transmission mechanism (not shown). The rotation transmission mechanism has the same configuration as the rotation transmission mechanism of the movable body of the first embodiment, and has a through hole (not shown) in which a rib (not shown) that engages with the groove of the second rotation shaft 14 is formed. A worm (not shown) having a worm wheel, a worm wheel (not shown) meshing with the worm, and a second holding means 28b formed integrally with the worm wheel. The worm wheel serves as a rotating shaft of the second holding means 28b. The second holding means 28b holds the other end of the strip 10. Since one end portion of the strip-shaped body 10 is rotatable with respect to the first movable body 22a, the strip-shaped body is rotated via the rotation transmission mechanism when the second rotating shaft 14 rotates. 10 is rotationally driven. Other configurations are substantially the same as those of the first embodiment described above.

  As described above, space can be saved by arranging the first rotating shaft 13 and the second rotating shaft 14 apart from each other. That is, according to the configuration as described in the first embodiment, the rotary shafts need to be juxtaposed in the depth direction of the gaming machine. Therefore, it is necessary to secure a space in the depth direction, but the first and second rotary shafts 13 and 14 are required. By arranging them separately, it is possible to save the space of the display device in the depth direction.

  Further, the first and second movable bodies 22a and 22b provided on the first and second rotating shafts 13 and 14 hold both ends of the strip-shaped body, thereby preventing the strip-shaped body 10 from swinging. Can do. In particular, in the case where the strip is moved from the proximal end side to the distal end side, if the movement is stopped, the strip-like body that is held only at one end may swing the other end due to inertia, Both ends of the strip-shaped body 10 having the above-described configuration are held by the first and second movable bodies 22a and 22b, and the first and second movable bodies 22a and 22b are supported by the first and second rotating shafts 13 and 14, respectively. Since the moving direction of the motor is limited, it is difficult to cause shake due to inertia.

  In the first to fourth embodiments described above, in order to simplify the description, all of the first to fourth embodiments are described using a configuration in which the strip 10 is moved in the left-right direction of the display screen. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the strip 10 may be moved up and down the display surface. In the case where the strip 10 is configured to move in the vertical direction in the fourth embodiment, the first and second rotating shafts are spaced apart so as to sandwich the display 12 from the left and right. Moreover, it is good also as providing the above-mentioned strip-shaped body 10 and multiple drive means to move this, and making the moving direction of each strip-shaped body each differ.
