Description

本発明は、遊技盤に、遊技領域を区画する遊技領域区画部材を設け、前記遊技領域には、遊技球の流下方向に変化を与える障害部材と、遊技球が入賞可能な入賞領域と、遊技領域の最下部に設けられて何れの入賞領域にも入賞しなかった遊技球を回収するアウト口と、を備えた遊技機に関する。   The present invention provides a game board with a game area partition member for partitioning a game area in the game board, the game area having a obstacle member that changes in the flow direction of the game ball, a winning area in which the game ball can win, and a game The present invention relates to a gaming machine provided with an out-out port that is provided at the bottom of the area and collects game balls that have not won any winning area.

従来より、遊技媒体として遊技球を用いた弾球遊技を行える遊技機においては、遊技盤の前面側に突設された遊技領域区画部材により略円形状に区画形成された遊技領域に、種々の遊技装置や入賞具、遊技球の流下方向に変化を与える風車や障害釘などを適宜設け、遊技領域の上部へ発射されて下方へと転動流下して行く遊技球が入賞装置や入賞具の入賞領域へ入賞することにより、賞球が遊技利益として遊技者に付与されたり、遊技状態が変化したりする遊技が行えるものとなっている。   2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a gaming machine capable of performing a ball game using a game ball as a game medium, various game areas are formed in a substantially circular shape by a game area partition member protruding from the front side of the game board. A game machine, prize-winning equipment, a windmill or obstacle nail that changes the flow direction of the game ball are provided as appropriate, and the game ball that is launched to the upper part of the game area and rolls down downwards By winning in the winning area, a game in which a prize ball is given to the player as a gaming profit or a gaming state changes can be performed.

しかし、何れの入賞領域にも入賞しなかった遊技球は、遊技領域の最下部に設けられたアウト口から回収する構造であるために、何れの入賞領域にも入賞しなかった遊技球が遊技領域内で球止まりすること無く、必ずアウト口まで自然流下するようにアウト口へのアウト誘導路を確保しておく必要があった。   However, since the game balls that have not won any of the winning areas are collected from the out-port provided at the bottom of the gaming area, the gaming balls that have not won any of the winning areas play a game It was necessary to secure an out guide path to the out port so that the ball would naturally flow down to the out port without stopping the ball in the area.

例えば、遊技球の入賞が遊技状態の変化に大きく関与しない一般入賞口を形成する一般入賞具(遊技盤の表面から前方へ突出する左右両側壁および底壁と、その前面側に配置される前面壁とから成り、開口上面から遊技球を受入れるポケット状の入賞領域を形成する部材)への球入賞は、遊技者の関心が比較的薄いことから、遊技領域の周辺に配置される傾向にあるが、一般入賞具を遊技領域区画部材に近づけすぎると、一般入賞口に入らなかった遊技球が入賞具と遊技領域区画部材との間に挟まってアウト口へ流下しなくなってしまう虞があるため、一般入賞口を形成する一般入賞具と遊技領域区画部材の内壁面との間には、少なくとも遊技球1個分の間隔を開けて、遊技領域区画部材に沿ったアウト誘導路が形成されるように配慮していた(例えば、特許文献1を参照)。   For example, a general prize-winning tool that forms a general prize-winning slot in which a winning of a game ball is not greatly involved in a change in the gaming state (the left and right side walls and the bottom wall projecting forward from the surface of the game board, and the front face disposed on the front side thereof) The ball winning to the member (which forms a pocket-shaped winning area for receiving the gaming ball from the upper surface of the opening) tends to be arranged around the gaming area because the player's interest is relatively thin However, if the general prize-winning tool is too close to the game area partition member, there is a possibility that the game ball that did not enter the general prize-winning hole will be sandwiched between the prize-winning tool and the game area partition member and will not flow down to the out mouth. An out guiding path along the game area partition member is formed between the general winning device forming the general prize opening and the inner wall surface of the game area partition member with an interval of at least one game ball. Like so (E.g., see Patent Document 1).

特開平10−113459号公報(特に、図2,図3,図16)Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-113659 (in particular, FIGS. 2, 3, and 16)

しかしながら、近来は、インパクトのある遊技機の要望が多く、各遊技機メーカーが競って表示領域や装飾領域を大型化しているため、遊技領域内で遊技球が転動流下する領域は更に狭められる傾向にあり、前記特許文献1に記載されている遊技機のように、一般入賞具と遊技領域区画部材の内壁面との間にアウト誘導路を確保していたのでは、入賞領域へ遊技球が入賞する可能性のある遊技球流下領域が更に狭められてしまい、弾球遊技本来の興趣である遊技球の流下を楽しむことができないという問題がある。   However, recently, there are many demands for impacting gaming machines, and each gaming machine manufacturer competes to enlarge the display area and decoration area, so the area where the game balls roll down in the gaming area is further narrowed. As in the gaming machine described in the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, if the out guiding path is secured between the general winning device and the inner wall surface of the game area partition member, the game ball is moved to the prize area. There is a problem that the game ball flow down area where there is a possibility of winning a prize is further narrowed, and it is not possible to enjoy the flow down of the game ball, which is the original interest of the ball game.

このような遊技領域内における遊技球流下可能領域の狭小化に対して、遊技領域そのものを拡大して相対的に遊技球流下可能領域を広げることも考えられるが、遊技店において複数の遊技機を設置する遊技機設置島の構造から、遊技機は規格化されたサイズに制限されているため、遊技領域を拡大するにも限界がある。   In response to the narrowing of the area where game balls can flow down in such a game area, it is possible to enlarge the game area itself and relatively expand the area where game balls can flow down. Due to the structure of the island where the gaming machine is installed, the gaming machine is limited to a standardized size, so there is a limit to expanding the gaming area.

そこで、本発明は、上記問題点に鑑み、遊技領域区画部材に近接させて入賞口を配置するようにしても、遊技領域区画部材に沿ったアウト誘導路を確保する必要が無く、遊技領域の有効利用を可能ならしめる遊技機の提供を目的とする。   Therefore, in view of the above problems, the present invention does not need to secure an out guide path along the game area partition member, even if the winning opening is arranged close to the game area partition member. The purpose is to provide a gaming machine that can be used effectively.

The display unit 71a is composed of a liquid crystal display or the like, and various decoration effects are displayed on the display unit 71a, and a variable display game (detailed later) is provided. Or use it. Since the central production device 71 is a large-sized occupying a large area from the center to the right side of the game area 7a, the left side of the central production device 71 and the lower side of the central production device 71 mainly flow down the game ball. It becomes a possible area. In this relatively narrow game ball flowable region, a game nail 7c that changes the flow state of the game ball is appropriately planted and a windmill 7d is provided as appropriate so that the flow of the game ball can be varied. is there.

また、遊技領域7aには、各種の入賞具や入賞装置など、例えば、遊技球の通過を非接触で検出する普図始動ゲート72、第1特図始動口73aおよび入賞状態が変換可能な第2特図始動口73b(左右一対の可動部材73c,73cが直立して可動部材73c,73cの間に形成される第2特図始動口73bへ遊技球が入賞し難い通常状態から、可動部材73c,73cの上端が離隔するように拡張して第2特図始動口73bへ遊技球が入賞し易い開放状態へ変換可能な変動構造)を備える特図始動入賞装置73、特別遊技において所定条件に基づき状態変換(例えば、下縁部に設けた回動軸で前傾可能な開閉扉74aが大入賞口74bを遮蔽した閉状態から、開閉扉74aが前傾して遊技球を大入賞口74bへ招じ入れる開状態へ変換)する特別変動入賞装置74を適宜に分散配置してある。   Also, in the game area 7a, various prize-winning tools and prize-winning devices, such as a normal start gate 72 for detecting the passage of a game ball in a non-contact manner, a first special figure start opening 73a, and a winning state in which a winning state can be converted. 2 special figure starting port 73b (from the normal state where it is difficult for a game ball to win the second special figure starting port 73b formed between the movable members 73c and 73c with the pair of left and right movable members 73c and 73c standing upright. 73c, 73c, a special figure start winning device 73 having a variable structure that can be expanded so that the upper ends of 73c are spaced apart and can be converted into an open state in which a game ball can easily win a prize in the second special figure start opening 73b. Based on the state change (for example, from the closed state in which the open / close door 74a that can be tilted forward by the rotation shaft provided at the lower edge portion shields the large winning opening 74b, the open / close door 74a is tilted forward and the game ball is 74b) That are then distributed special variation winning device 74 appropriately.

ここで、本実施形態に示す遊技機1における遊技の流れを説明する。   Here, the flow of the game in the gaming machine 1 shown in the present embodiment will be described.

発射装置により発射された遊技球が発射球案内路81aを経て遊技領域7aに到達すると、その発射勢に応じて、中央演出装置71の左側に形成された遊技球流下領域を流下してゆき、運良く遊技球が普図始動ゲート72を通過すると、普通変動表示ゲームが開始される。この普通図柄変動表示ゲームは、例えば、抽出した乱数値が特定値であるか否かを判定して、判定結果に基づいて数字や図柄等からなる複数種類の識別情報を変動表示した後に停止表示させた識別情報が予め定めた賞態様か否かで当りと外れを演出するゲームであり、中央演出装置71の表示部71aを用いて行う。なお、普通図柄変動表示ゲーム専用の表示器(普通図柄変動表示器)を別途設けても良い。   When the game ball fired by the launch device reaches the game area 7a via the launch ball guide path 81a, it flows down the game ball flow area formed on the left side of the central effect device 71 according to the launch force, Fortunately, when the game ball passes the normal start gate 72, the normal variation display game is started. In this normal symbol variation display game, for example, it is determined whether or not the extracted random number value is a specific value, and based on the determination result, a plurality of types of identification information composed of numbers, symbols, and the like are displayed in a variable manner and then stopped. This is a game that produces a winning and losing effect depending on whether or not the identified identification information is a predetermined award mode, and is performed using the display unit 71 a of the central effect device 71. In addition, you may provide the display (ordinary symbol fluctuation | variation display) for exclusive use of a normal symbol fluctuation display game separately.

また、既に普通図柄変動表示ゲームが実行されているときには、普図始動ゲート72を通過した遊技球を無効とせずに、所定数(例えは、4個)まで普図始動入賞記憶として記憶保持し、普通図柄変動表示ゲームの終了後には、この普図始動入賞記憶に基づいて普通図柄変動表示ゲームを行う。なお、普図始動入賞記憶値は、中央演出装置71の表示部71aまたは普図始動記憶表示専用の表示器によって遊技者に可視表示しても良い。   Further, when the normal symbol variation display game is already being executed, up to a predetermined number (for example, four) of the game balls that have passed through the normal diagram start gate 72 are stored and held as a normal diagram start winning memory. After the end of the normal symbol variation display game, the normal symbol variation display game is performed based on the ordinary symbol start winning memory. It should be noted that the general figure start winning memorized value may be visually displayed to the player by the display unit 71a of the central effect device 71 or a display dedicated to the general figure start memory display.

上記のように普図始動ゲート72を遊技球が通過すること、或いはこの球通過が記憶された普図始動入賞記憶に基づいて、普通図柄変動表示ゲームが行われ、ゲーム結果が当りになると、特図始動入賞装置73に設けた左右一対の可動部材73c,73cが起立して第2特図始動口73bへの入賞が困難な通常状態から、可動部材73c,73cの上端が相反する方向へ傾動して第2特図始動口73bへの入賞が容易となる開放状態へ変換される。これによって、特図始動入賞装置73の第2特図始動口73bへ遊技球が入賞する可能性が高くなる。   As described above, when the game ball passes through the normal figure start gate 72, or based on the normal figure start winning memory in which this ball passage is stored, the normal symbol variation display game is performed, and when the game result is hit, From the normal state where the pair of left and right movable members 73c, 73c provided in the special figure start winning device 73 stands up and it is difficult to win the second special figure start port 73b, the upper ends of the movable members 73c, 73c are in a direction opposite to each other. It is tilted and converted into an open state that makes it easy to win the second special figure starting port 73b. This increases the possibility that a game ball will win the second special figure starting port 73b of the special figure starting winning device 73.

特図始動入賞装置73の第1特図始動入賞口73aまたは第2特図始動口73bへ遊技球が入賞することを条件として、特別図柄変動表示ゲームが行われる。この特別図柄変動表示ゲームは、例えば、抽出した乱数値が特定値であるか否かを判定して、判定結果に基づいて数字や図柄等からなる複数種類の識別情報を変動表示した後に停止表示させた識別情報が予め定めた賞態様か否かで当りと外れを演出するゲームあり、中央演出装置71の表示部71aを用いて行う。なお、特別図柄変動表示ゲーム専用の表示器(特別図柄変動表示器)を別途設けておき、中央演出表示装置71の表示部71aでは、特別図柄変動表示器によるゲーム進行過程を、凝った演出表示で遊技者に見せるようにしても良い。   A special symbol variation display game is performed on condition that the game ball wins the first special figure start winning port 73a or the second special figure start winning port 73b of the special figure start winning device 73. In this special symbol variation display game, for example, it is determined whether or not the extracted random number value is a specific value, and based on the determination result, a plurality of types of identification information composed of numbers, symbols, and the like are displayed in a variable manner and then stopped. There is a game that produces a winning and losing effect depending on whether or not the identified identification information is a predetermined prize mode, and is performed using the display unit 71 a of the central effect device 71. In addition, a display dedicated to the special symbol variation display game (special symbol variation display) is separately provided, and the display portion 71a of the central effect display device 71 displays the elaborate effect display of the game progress process by the special symbol variation display. You may make it show to a player.

また、特別図柄変動表示ゲームの実行中に第1,第2特図始動口73a,73bへの入賞球を検出した場合、これを無効とせずに、所定数(例えば、4個)まで特図始動記憶として記憶保持し、特別図柄変動表示ゲームが可能となったときには特図始動記憶を用いて特別図柄変動表示ゲームを行う。なお、特図始動記憶の記憶値は、中央演出装置71の表示部71aまたは特図始動記憶表示専用の表示器によって遊技者に可視表示しても良い。   Further, when a winning ball is detected in the first and second special figure starting ports 73a and 73b during the execution of the special symbol variation display game, the special figure is limited to a predetermined number (for example, four) without being invalidated. When the special symbol variation display game is enabled, the special symbol variation display game is performed using the special symbol variation memory. Note that the stored value of the special figure start memory may be visually displayed to the player by the display unit 71a of the central effect device 71 or a display dedicated to the special figure start memory display.

上記のようにして開始した特別図柄変動表示ゲームの結果態様(停止表示させた停止図柄)が予め定めた特別態様(例えば、3桁の図柄が「333」「777」等のように揃った態様)となる大当りの発生に基づき開始される特別遊技は、特別変動入賞装置74の開閉扉74aを閉状態から開状態に変換し、大入賞口74bへの入賞球が所定数(例えば、10個)に達する第1条件か、開閉扉74aを開状態に変換した開放時間が所定時間(例えば、30秒)に達する第2条件か、何れか最先の条件が達成されるまでを1サイクルとし、これを所定サイクル回数(例えば、16回)まで継続させる遊技である。   A special mode in which the result mode of the special symbol variation display game started as described above (the stop symbol that has been stopped) is set in advance as a special mode (for example, three-digit symbols such as “333”, “777”, etc.) The special game that is started based on the occurrence of the big win is converted from the closed state to the open state of the open / close door 74a of the special variable winning device 74, and a predetermined number (for example, 10) of winning balls to the big winning port 74b is obtained. ) Or the second condition in which the opening time when the open / close door 74a is converted to the open state reaches a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds), or one of the first conditions is achieved as one cycle. This is a game in which this is continued up to a predetermined number of cycles (for example, 16 times).

このように、特別遊技が開始されると、遊技領域7aを流下してくる遊技球を効率良く大入賞口74b内へ入賞させることができるので、遊技者は比較的短時間で多くの遊技利益(大入賞口74bへの入賞に対して排出される賞球)を獲得できる。なお、特別遊技におけるサイクル回数や各サイクルにおける大入賞口74bへの入賞個数といった遊技進行状況を中央演出装置71の表示部71a等で表示しておけば、特別遊技の進行状況を遊技者に分かり易く表示できる。   In this way, when the special game is started, the game balls flowing down the game area 7a can be efficiently won into the big winning opening 74b, so that the player can make a lot of game profits in a relatively short time. (Prize balls discharged in response to winning in the big winning opening 74b) can be obtained. If the game progress status such as the number of cycles in the special game and the number of winning prizes in the big winning opening 74b in each cycle is displayed on the display unit 71a of the central effect device 71, the progress status of the special game can be understood by the player. It can be displayed easily.

なお、特別遊技の遊技進行は特に限定されるものではなく、通常遊技よりも遊技者が多くの遊技利益を獲得できる可能性の高いものであれば良い。例えば、大入賞口74b内に一般入賞領域と継続入賞領域とを区画構成しておき、サイクル終了条件が達成されるまでに大入賞口74bに入賞した遊技球が継続入賞領域へ到達することを条件に、サイクル遊技を継続更新させ、サイクル中に継続入賞領域に到達した遊技球がなければ、その回のサイクルを以て特別遊技を終了させるような遊技進行としても良い。   Note that the progress of the special game is not particularly limited as long as it is more likely that the player can acquire more game profits than the normal game. For example, a general winning area and a continuous winning area are partitioned in the big winning opening 74b, and a game ball that has won the big winning opening 74b by the time the cycle ending condition is achieved reaches the continuous winning area. As a condition, the cycle game may be continuously updated, and if there is no game ball that has reached the continuous winning area during the cycle, the game progress may be such that the special game is terminated by the cycle.

上述した普図始動ゲート72や第1,第2特図始動口73a、73bは、遊技球の通過や入賞によって遊技状態が変化するものであったが、遊技領域7a内には、遊技状態の変化には関与せず、入賞に応じた賞球が遊技者に与えられる一般入賞口も適宜設けておく。本実施形態に係る遊技機1の遊技盤7においては、第1遊技領域区画部材81の内側誘導壁部812の内壁面812aに近接させた位置に、第1一般入賞口7e1と第2一般入賞口7e2を設けるものとした。なお、第1,第2一般入賞口7e1,7e2は、上方から遊技球が入賞可能な入賞口であり、斯かる入賞口を遊技領域7a内に設けるために、左右両側壁部と底壁部を備える入賞口構成体を用いる。入賞口構成体の上部開口が入賞口として機能するのである。   The above-mentioned general-purpose starting gate 72 and the first and second special figure starting ports 73a and 73b change the gaming state due to the passing of a game ball or winning a prize, but the gaming area 7a has a gaming state. A general winning opening is provided as appropriate so that a player can receive a prize ball according to the winning prize without being involved in the change. In the game board 7 of the gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the first general prize opening 7e1 and the second general prize are located at positions close to the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guide wall portion 812 of the first game area partition member 81. The mouth 7e2 was provided. The first and second general winning ports 7e1 and 7e2 are winning ports through which game balls can be won from above, and in order to provide such winning ports in the game area 7a, the left and right side walls and the bottom wall Use a winning opening structure. The upper opening of the winning opening structure functions as a winning opening.

そして、内側誘導壁部812に近接させて第1,第2一般入賞口7e1,7e2を設けることで、第1,第2一般入賞口7e1,7e2を構成する入賞口構成体と内側誘導壁部812の内壁面812aとの間に遊技球の通過可能な流路が無くなり、内側誘導壁部812の内壁面812aにそって流下する遊技球がここで止まってしまう可能性が生ずるが、本実施形態に係る遊技機1においては、第1一般入賞口7e1の構成体と内側誘導壁部812の内壁面812aとの間には第1副アウト口7f1を設け、第2一般入賞口7e2の構成体と内側誘導壁部812の内壁面812aとの間には第2副アウト口7f2を設け、第1,第2一般入賞口7e1,7e2と内側誘導壁部812との間に流下してきた遊技球(第1,第2一般入賞口7e1,7e2の構成体に当たって停留しそうな遊技球)をアウト球として回収処理することとした。   Then, by providing the first and second general winning ports 7e1 and 7e2 close to the inner guiding wall portion 812, the winning port structure and the inner guiding wall portion constituting the first and second general winning ports 7e1 and 7e2. The flow path through which the game ball can pass is lost between the inner wall surface 812a of 812 and the game ball flowing down along the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guide wall portion 812 may stop here. In the gaming machine 1 according to the embodiment, the first sub-out port 7f1 is provided between the component of the first general winning port 7e1 and the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guide wall portion 812, and the second general winning port 7e2 is configured. A second sub-out port 7f2 is provided between the body and the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guide wall portion 812, and the game flowing down between the first and second general winning ports 7e1, 7e2 and the inner guide wall portion 812 Sphere (1st and 2nd general winning opening 7e1 Dwell likely to game ball when construct 7e2) was used as a recovering process as out balls.

このように、第1,第2副アウト口7f1,7f2を設けておけば、内側誘導壁部812の内壁面812aに沿って遊技領域7a最下部のアウト口7bまで遊技球を誘導するアウト誘導路を確保する必要が無い。よって、第1,第2一般入賞口7e1,7e2を内側誘導壁部812に近接させて設けることができ、他の入賞領域である特図始動入賞装置73や特別変動入賞装置74へ入賞する可能性のある遊技球流下領域を広げることができ、遊技領域7aの有効利用が可能となる。また、第1,第2副アウト口7f1,7f2から回収されるアウト球は、内側誘導壁部812の内壁面812aに沿ってアウト口7bへ誘導される筈の遊技球であり、何れかの入賞領域への入賞可能性を失ったものであるから、アウト口7bへ到達する前にアウト球として回収しても、遊技者に格別不利となることはない。   In this way, if the first and second sub-out ports 7f1 and 7f2 are provided, the out-guide that guides the game ball along the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guide wall portion 812 to the out-port 7b at the bottom of the game area 7a. There is no need to secure a road. Therefore, the first and second general prize winning ports 7e1 and 7e2 can be provided close to the inner guide wall portion 812, and it is possible to win the special drawing start winning device 73 and the special variable winning device 74 which are other winning areas. It is possible to widen the game ball flow down area and to effectively use the game area 7a. Also, the out balls collected from the first and second sub-out ports 7f1 and 7f2 are kite game balls that are guided to the out port 7b along the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guide wall portion 812. Since the possibility of winning in the winning area has been lost, even if it is collected as an out ball before reaching the out port 7b, there is no particular disadvantage to the player.

次に、第1,第2一般入賞口7e1,7e2および第1,第2副アウト口7f1,7f2を一体に備える受入ユニット9の具体的構造を、図3〜図5に基づいて説明する。   Next, a specific structure of the receiving unit 9 integrally including the first and second general winning ports 7e1 and 7e2 and the first and second sub-out ports 7f1 and 7f2 will be described with reference to FIGS.

なお、本構成例の受入ユニット9は、2つの入賞口と2つの副アウト口を一体に備えるものとして例示するが、例えば、3つ以上の入賞口と副アウト口を一体に構成しても良いし、逆に、入賞口や副アウト口毎に別体としても良い。また、第1遊技領域区画部材81の内側誘導壁部812の内壁面812aに近接させた位置に設ける入賞口は、遊技状態の変化に関与しない一般入賞口に限定されるものではなく、普図始動口や特図始動口などの球入賞が遊技状態の変化の契機となる入賞口でも構わない。   The receiving unit 9 of the present configuration example is illustrated as having two winning ports and two sub-out ports integrally. However, for example, three or more winning ports and sub-out ports may be configured integrally. On the contrary, it is also possible to make a separate body for each winning opening and deputy out opening. In addition, the winning opening provided at a position close to the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guiding wall portion 812 of the first gaming area partition member 81 is not limited to a general winning opening that is not involved in a change in the gaming state. Ball winnings such as starting openings and special figure starting openings may be used as triggers for changes in the gaming state.

受入ユニット9は、ビス等の止着部材によって遊技盤7の前面側に取り付けられる所要形状の取付基板91に、第1入賞口構成体92と第2入賞口構成体93を前後に貫通させた状態で設け、例えば、第1入賞口構成体92の上流側(遊技領域7aの左側端部から中央下部へ下降傾斜する内側誘導壁部812の内壁面812aに近接させる場合は、第1入賞口構成体92の左側)に第1アウト開口部91aを、第2入賞口構成体93の上流側(遊技領域7aの左側端部から中央下部へ下降傾斜する内側誘導壁部812の内壁面812aに近接させる場合は、第2入賞口構成体92の左側)に第2アウト開口部91bを各々開設し、第1アウト開口部91aの下方前側に第1球受け部94を、第2開口部91bの下方前側に第2球受部95を各々設けると共に、第1アウト開口部91aの下方後側に第1案内部96を、第2開口部91bの下方後側に第2案内部97を各々設ける。   The receiving unit 9 has a first winning hole structure 92 and a second winning hole structure 93 passed back and forth through a mounting board 91 having a required shape that is attached to the front side of the game board 7 by a fastening member such as a screw. Provided in a state, for example, the first prize opening in the case of making it close to the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guiding wall part 812 inclined downward from the left end of the game area 7a to the center lower part of the first prize opening structure 92 The first out opening 91a is formed on the left side of the structure 92, and the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guide wall 812 inclined downward from the left end of the game area 7a toward the center lower part of the second winning opening structure 93. In the case of proximity, the second out opening 91b is opened on the left side of the second winning opening structure 92), the first ball receiving portion 94 is provided on the lower front side of the first out opening 91a, and the second opening 91b. Each of the second ball receiving portions 95 on the lower front side of each Provided with a first guiding portion 96 to the lower rear side of the first-out opening 91a, providing a second guide part 97, respectively the lower rear side of the second opening 91b.

第1入賞口構成体92は、遊技球1個分よりも適宜広い間隔をあけて配置した左側壁部92aと右側壁部92b、これら左右側壁部92a,92bの下縁に連なる底壁部92c、これら左右側壁部92a,92bおよび底壁部92cによる前面開口を閉塞する前壁部92dからなり、受入ユニット9が遊技盤7に取り付けられた際に、遊技盤表面よりも前側に突出する部位の上部開口が第1一般入賞口7e1となる(特に、図3を参照)。なお、底壁部92cの上面には、前壁部92dの後面から後方へ延出する板状の後方誘導部92eを設けてあり、第1一般入賞口7e1より落下した遊技球は、後方に向って下り傾斜する後方誘導部92aの傾斜縁に当たって、後方へ円滑に案内される。また、底壁部92cの上面自体も、後方に向って緩やかに傾斜させてあるので、第1一般入賞口7e1より受入れた遊技球をより円滑に後方へ案内できる。   The first prize opening structure 92 is composed of a left wall 92a and a right wall 92b that are arranged with a space that is appropriately wider than one game ball, and a bottom wall 92c that continues to the lower edges of the left and right side walls 92a and 92b. The front wall portion 92d that closes the front opening by the left and right side wall portions 92a, 92b and the bottom wall portion 92c, and when the receiving unit 9 is attached to the game board 7, protrudes forward from the game board surface. Is the first general winning opening 7e1 (see particularly FIG. 3). In addition, a plate-like rear guiding portion 92e extending backward from the rear surface of the front wall portion 92d is provided on the upper surface of the bottom wall portion 92c, and the game ball dropped from the first general winning opening 7e1 is rearward. It hits the inclined edge of the rear guiding portion 92a that inclines downward and is smoothly guided rearward. Further, since the upper surface itself of the bottom wall portion 92c is also gently inclined toward the rear, the game ball received from the first general winning opening 7e1 can be guided more smoothly to the rear.

第2入賞口構成体93も、上述した第1入賞口構成体92と同様に、遊技球1個分よりも適宜広い間隔をあけて配置した左側壁部93aと右側壁部93b、これら左右側壁部93a,93bの下縁に連なる底壁部93c、これら左右側壁部93a,93bおよび底壁部93cによる前面開口を閉塞する前壁部93dからなり、受入ユニット9が遊技盤7に取り付けられた際に、遊技盤表面よりも前側に突出する部位の上部開口が第2一般入賞口7e2となる(特に、図3を参照)。なお、底壁部93cの上面には、前壁部93dの後面から後方へ延出する板状の後方誘導部93eを設けてあり、第2一般入賞口7e2より落下した遊技球は、後方に向って下り傾斜する後方誘導部93aの傾斜縁に当たって、後方へ円滑に案内される。また、底壁部93cの上面自体も、後方に向って緩やかに傾斜させてあるので、第2一般入賞口7e2より受入れた遊技球をより円滑に後方へ案内できる。   Similarly to the first prize opening structure 92 described above, the second prize opening structure 93 is also provided with a left side wall part 93a and a right side wall part 93b that are appropriately spaced apart from one game ball, and these left and right side walls. The receiving wall 9 is attached to the game board 7 and includes a bottom wall portion 93c that is continuous with the lower edges of the portions 93a and 93b, left and right side wall portions 93a and 93b, and a front wall portion 93d that closes the front opening of the bottom wall portion 93c. At this time, the upper opening of the portion protruding forward from the game board surface becomes the second general winning opening 7e2 (particularly, see FIG. 3). In addition, on the upper surface of the bottom wall portion 93c, there is provided a plate-like rear guiding portion 93e extending backward from the rear surface of the front wall portion 93d, and the game ball dropped from the second general winning opening 7e2 It hits the inclined edge of the rear guiding portion 93a that slopes downward and is smoothly guided rearward. Moreover, since the upper surface itself of the bottom wall part 93c is also inclined gently toward the back, the game ball received from the 2nd general winning port 7e2 can be guided back more smoothly.

そして、第1一般入賞口7e1へ入賞して第1入賞口構成体92により遊技盤7の裏面側へ案内された入賞球、および、第2一般入賞口7e2へ入賞して第2入賞口構成体92により遊技盤7の裏面側へ案内された入賞球は、遊技盤7の裏面側に設けた入賞球案内通路75によって入賞球センサ76の配設位置まで案内され、入賞球センサ76により検出された後に回収樋77へ落下し、この回収樋77を介して機外排出流路(図示省略)へ導かれ、遊技機1の外へ排出されることとなる(特に、図5を参照)。   Then, a winning ball that is won at the first general winning opening 7e1 and guided to the back side of the game board 7 by the first winning opening structure 92 and a second general winning opening 7e2 is awarded as a second winning opening configuration. The winning ball guided to the back side of the game board 7 by the body 92 is guided to the position where the winning ball sensor 76 is disposed by the winning ball guide passage 75 provided on the back side of the game board 7 and detected by the winning ball sensor 76. After that, it falls to the collection basket 77, is led to the outside discharge channel (not shown) through the collection bowl 77, and is discharged out of the gaming machine 1 (see particularly FIG. 5). .

一方、取付基板91から前方へ突出する第1球受け部94は、第1アウト開口部91aの開口下部に対応する部位が最凹部となる凹面状の球受け面94aを備え、この球受け面94aの一側端縁である第1側端部94a1を第1遊技領域区画部材81における内側誘導壁部812の内壁面812aに近接または当接させ、球受け面94aの他側端縁である第2側端部94a2を第1入賞口構成体92の左側壁部92aに近接または当接させておくことで、図3に示すように、第1一般入賞口7e1と内側誘導壁部812との間に流下してきた遊技球P1は、第1球受け部94の球受け面94aによって第1アウト開口部91aへ誘導されることとなる。   On the other hand, the first ball receiving portion 94 protruding forward from the mounting substrate 91 includes a concave ball receiving surface 94a in which a portion corresponding to the lower opening of the first out opening 91a is the most concave, and this ball receiving surface. The first side end portion 94a1 which is one side edge of 94a is brought close to or in contact with the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guide wall portion 812 in the first game area partition member 81, and is the other side edge of the ball receiving surface 94a. As shown in FIG. 3, the second side end portion 94a2 is brought close to or in contact with the left side wall portion 92a of the first winning opening structure 92, so that the first general winning opening 7e1, the inner guiding wall portion 812, The game ball P1 flowing down during this period is guided to the first out opening 91a by the ball receiving surface 94a of the first ball receiving portion 94.

同様に、取付基板91から前方へ突出する第2球受け部95は、第2アウト開口部91bの開口下部に対応する部位が最凹部となる凹面状の球受け面95aを備え、この球受け面95aの一側端縁である第1側端部95a1を第1遊技領域区画部材81における内側誘導壁部812の内壁面812aに近接または当接させ、球受け面95aの他側端縁である第2側端部95a2を第2入賞口構成体93の左側壁部93aに近接または当接させておくことで、図3に示すように、第1一般入賞口7e1と第2一般入賞口7e2との間を内側誘導壁部812に向って流下してきた遊技球P2は、第2球受け部95の球受け面95aによって第2アウト開口部91bへ誘導されることとなる。   Similarly, the second ball receiving portion 95 protruding forward from the mounting substrate 91 includes a concave ball receiving surface 95a in which a portion corresponding to the lower opening portion of the second out opening portion 91b is the most concave portion. The first side end portion 95a1 which is one side edge of the surface 95a is brought close to or in contact with the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guide wall portion 812 in the first game area partition member 81, and at the other side edge of the ball receiving surface 95a. As shown in FIG. 3, a certain second side end portion 95 a 2 is brought close to or in contact with the left side wall portion 93 a of the second winning port structure 93, so that the first general winning port 7 e 1 and the second general winning port are provided. The game ball P2 that has flowed down toward the inner guide wall portion 812 with respect to 7e2 is guided to the second out opening portion 91b by the ball receiving surface 95a of the second ball receiving portion 95.

なお、本構成例に示す受入ユニット9においては、取付基板91における領域端縁部91cを内側誘導壁部812の内壁面812aに沿った曲縁形状に設定しておくと共に、第1球受け部94の第1側端部94a1に連なる下部傾斜面94bと第2球受け部95の第1側端部95a1に連なる下部傾斜面95bが領域端縁部91cとほぼ面一になるよう設定しておくことで、受入ユニット9を遊技盤7へ取り付けると、第1,第2球受け部94,95が共に内側誘導壁部812の内壁面812aに沿って前方に突出している外観を呈することとなり、第1,第2球受け部94,95夫々の第1側端部94a1,95a1と内側誘導壁部812の内壁面812aとが当接もしくは極めて近接した状態となるので、内側誘導壁部812の内壁面812aに沿って流下してきた遊技球を第1,第2球受け部94,95の各球受け面94a,95aへ円滑に導入することができる。   In the receiving unit 9 shown in this configuration example, the region end edge portion 91c of the mounting substrate 91 is set to a curved shape along the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guide wall portion 812, and the first ball receiving portion is set. The lower inclined surface 94b continuous to the first side end portion 94a1 of 94 and the lower inclined surface 95b continuous to the first side end portion 95a1 of the second ball receiving portion 95 are set to be substantially flush with the region edge 91c. Therefore, when the receiving unit 9 is attached to the game board 7, both the first and second ball receiving portions 94 and 95 have an appearance of protruding forward along the inner wall surface 812 a of the inner guide wall portion 812. Since the first side end portions 94a1 and 95a1 of the first and second ball receiving portions 94 and 95 and the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guide wall portion 812 are in contact with each other or are extremely close to each other, the inner guide wall portion 812 Inner wall surface 8 The first game balls that have flowed down along the 2a, the ball receiving surface 94a of the second ball receiving portions 94 and 95, can be smoothly introduced into 95a.

また、第1球受け部94の第2側端部94a2に連なる側方縦面94cが第1入賞口構成体92の左側壁部92aの外面に近接、或いは第1球受け部94aの側方縦面94cを第1入賞口構成体92の左側壁部92aと一体化することで、第1球受け部94の第2側端部94a2と第1入賞口構成体92との間で遊技球が球止まりすることの無いようにした。同様に、第2球受け部95の第2側端部95a2に連なる側方縦面95cが第2入賞口構成体93の左側壁部93aの外面に近接、或いは第2球受け部95aの側方縦面95cを第2入賞口構成体93の左側壁部93aと一体化することで、第2球受け部95の第2側端部95a2と第2入賞口構成体93との間で遊技球が球止まりすることの無いようにした。   Further, the lateral vertical surface 94c connected to the second side end portion 94a2 of the first ball receiving portion 94 is close to the outer surface of the left wall portion 92a of the first winning opening structure 92 or the side of the first ball receiving portion 94a. A game ball between the second side end portion 94a2 of the first ball receiving portion 94 and the first winning port structure 92 is obtained by integrating the vertical surface 94c with the left side wall 92a of the first prize opening structure 92. So that the ball does not stop. Similarly, the side vertical surface 95c connected to the second side end portion 95a2 of the second ball receiving portion 95 is close to the outer surface of the left wall portion 93a of the second winning opening structure 93 or the side of the second ball receiving portion 95a. A game between the second side end portion 95a2 of the second ball receiving portion 95 and the second winning port structure 93 by integrating the vertical surface 95c with the left side wall portion 93a of the second winning port structure 93. The ball was not stopped.

上述した第1球受部94の球受け面94aから第1アウト開口部91aを通過した遊技球を受入れる第1案内部96は、球受け面94aと段差無く連続する凹面状の球案内面96aを備え、球案内面96aの後端より落下した遊技球は回収樋77にて機外排出流路(図示省略)へ導かれ、遊技機1の外へ排出されることとなる(特に、図5を参照)。そして、第1球受け部94および第1案内部94aにより第1アウト開口部91aから遊技盤7の後方へ導入された遊技球は、入賞球センサに検出されることなく、アウト球として回収される。すなわち、第1球受け部94および第1案内部96により第1アウト開口部91aを通過させて回収樋77へ導く第1副アウト口7f1を構成すれば、アウト球の回収を円滑に行うことが出来る。   The first guide portion 96 that receives the game ball that has passed through the first out opening 91a from the ball receiving surface 94a of the first ball receiving portion 94 described above is a concave ball guide surface 96a that is continuous with the ball receiving surface 94a without a step. The game ball that has fallen from the rear end of the ball guide surface 96a is guided to the outside discharge flow path (not shown) by the collecting rod 77 and discharged outside the game machine 1 (particularly, FIG. 5). The game balls introduced from the first out opening 91a to the back of the game board 7 by the first ball receiving portion 94 and the first guide portion 94a are collected as out balls without being detected by the winning ball sensor. The That is, if the first sub-out port 7f1 that passes through the first out opening 91a and guides it to the collecting rod 77 by the first ball receiving portion 94 and the first guide portion 96 is configured, the out ball can be collected smoothly. I can do it.

同様に、第2球受部95の球受け面95aから第2アウト開口部91bを通過した遊技球を受入れる第2案内部97は、球受け面95aと段差無く連続する凹面状の球案内面97aを備え、球案内面97aの後端より落下した遊技球は回収樋77にて機外排出流路(図示省略)へ導かれ、遊技機1の外へ排出されることとなる(特に、図5を参照)。そして、第2球受け部95および第2案内部95aにより第2アウト開口部91bから遊技盤7の後方へ導入された遊技球は、入賞球センサに検出されることなく、アウト球として回収される。すなわち、第2球受け部95および第2案内部97により第2アウト開口部91bを通過させて回収樋77へ導く第2副アウト口7f2を構成すれば、アウト球の回収を円滑に行うことが出来る。   Similarly, the second guide portion 97 that receives the game ball that has passed through the second out opening 91b from the ball receiving surface 95a of the second ball receiving portion 95 has a concave spherical guide surface that is continuous with the ball receiving surface 95a. The game ball that has fallen from the rear end of the ball guide surface 97a is guided to a discharge path outside the machine (not shown) by the recovery rod 77, and is discharged outside the game machine 1 (in particular, (See FIG. 5). The game balls introduced from the second out opening 91b to the back of the game board 7 by the second ball receiving portion 95 and the second guide portion 95a are collected as out balls without being detected by the winning ball sensor. The That is, if the second sub-out port 7f2 that passes through the second out opening 91b and leads to the collecting rod 77 by the second ball receiving portion 95 and the second guide portion 97 is configured, the out ball can be collected smoothly. I can do it.

また、第1,第2球受け部94,95を弾性部材(弾性ゴム等)により形成したり、球受け面94a,95aに弾性素材を貼付したりしておけば、第1,第2副アウト口7f1,7f2に向って流下してきた遊技球の流下勢を第1,第2球受け部94,95で効果的に吸収でき、内側誘導壁部812や第1,第2入賞口構成体92,93へ衝撃が伝搬することを防げる。   Further, if the first and second ball receiving portions 94 and 95 are formed of elastic members (elastic rubber or the like) or an elastic material is attached to the ball receiving surfaces 94a and 95a, the first and second sub-ball receiving portions 94 and 95 are formed. The first and second ball receiving portions 94 and 95 can effectively absorb the downward force of the game ball flowing down toward the out-ports 7f1 and 7f2, and the inner guide wall portion 812 and the first and second winning port structures. It is possible to prevent the impact from propagating to 92 and 93.

上述した第1実施形態に係る遊技機1においては、第1,第2球受け部95,96が取付基板91に固定される第1構成例の受入ユニット9を備えるものとしたが、これに限定されるものではない。例えば、図6に示す第2構成例の受入ユニット9′においては、前後方向に配した回動軸94dにより取付基板91に対して第1球受け部94′を回動可能に、前後方向に配した回動軸95dにより取付基板91に対して第2球受け部95′を回動可能に設けたものである。なお、図6において、上述した第1実施形態に係る遊技機1と同様の構成には同一符号を付して説明を省略する。   In the gaming machine 1 according to the first embodiment described above, the first and second ball receiving portions 95 and 96 include the receiving unit 9 of the first configuration example that is fixed to the mounting substrate 91. It is not limited. For example, in the receiving unit 9 ′ of the second configuration example shown in FIG. 6, the first ball receiving portion 94 ′ can be rotated with respect to the mounting substrate 91 by the rotating shaft 94 d disposed in the front and rear direction. A second ball receiving portion 95 ′ is provided so as to be rotatable with respect to the mounting substrate 91 by the arranged rotation shaft 95 d. In FIG. 6, the same components as those of the gaming machine 1 according to the first embodiment described above are denoted by the same reference numerals and description thereof is omitted.

受入ユニット9′において、第1球受け部94′の回動範囲は、球受け面94aの第1側端部94a1と第1遊技領域区画部材81′における内側誘導壁部812′の内壁面812aとの間に生ずる離隔空部、または、球受け面94aの第2側端部94a2と第1入賞口構成体92における左側壁部92aとの間に生ずる離隔空部により制限される。例えば、本構成例の第1球受け部94′においては、その重心よりも球受け面94aの第2側端部94a2寄りに回動軸94dを設けたので、常態における第1球受け部94′は、第1側端部94a1が内側誘導壁部812′の内壁面812aに当接し、第2側端部94a2と第1入賞口構成体92における左側壁部92aとの間にのみ離隔空部が生ずるものとし、球受け面94a上に載った遊技球が回動軸94dよりも第2側端部94a2側に至ると、第1球受け部94′が第1入賞口構成体92側に傾動することで、第2側端部94a2が第1入賞口構成体92の左側壁部92aに当接し、逆に第1側端部94a1と内側誘導壁部812′の内壁面812aとの間に離隔空部が生ずるようになる。   In the receiving unit 9 ′, the rotation range of the first ball receiving portion 94 ′ is such that the first side end portion 94a1 of the ball receiving surface 94a and the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guide wall portion 812 ′ in the first game area partition member 81 ′. Or a space formed between the second side end portion 94a2 of the ball receiving surface 94a and the left side wall portion 92a of the first winning opening structure 92. For example, in the first ball receiving portion 94 ′ of the present configuration example, the rotation shaft 94d is provided closer to the second side end portion 94a2 of the ball receiving surface 94a than the center of gravity, so the first ball receiving portion 94 in the normal state. The first side end portion 94a1 is in contact with the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guide wall portion 812 ', and is separated only between the second side end portion 94a2 and the left side wall portion 92a of the first winning opening structure 92. When the game ball placed on the ball receiving surface 94a reaches the second side end portion 94a2 side with respect to the rotation shaft 94d, the first ball receiving portion 94 'is on the first winning opening structure 92 side. The second side end portion 94a2 abuts on the left side wall portion 92a of the first winning opening structure 92, and conversely, the first side end portion 94a1 and the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guide wall portion 812 '. A gap space is created between them.

同様に、受入ユニット9′における第2球受け部95′の回動範囲は、球受け面95aの第1側端部95a1と第1遊技領域区画部材81′における内側誘導壁部812′の内壁面812aとの間に生ずる離隔空部、または、球受け面95aの第2側端部95a2と第2入賞口構成体93における左側壁部93aとの間に生ずる離隔空部により制限される。例えば、本構成例の第2球受け部95′においては、その重心よりも球受け面95aの第2側端部95a2寄りに回動軸95dを設けたので、常態における第2球受け部95′は、第1側端部95a1が内側誘導壁部812′の内壁面812aに当接し、第2側端部95a2と第2入賞口構成体93における左側壁部93aとの間にのみ離隔空部が生ずるものとし、球受け面95a上に載った遊技球が回動軸95dよりも第2側端部95a2側に至ると、第2球受け部95′が第2入賞口構成体93側に傾動することで、第2側端部95a2が第2入賞口構成体93の左側壁部93aに当接し、逆に第1側端部95a1と内側誘導壁部812′の内壁面812aとの間に離隔空部が生ずるようになる。   Similarly, the rotation range of the second ball receiving portion 95 'in the receiving unit 9' is that of the inner side guide wall portion 812 'in the first side end portion 95a1 of the ball receiving surface 95a and the first game area partition member 81'. It is limited by a separation space formed between the wall surface 812 a or a separation space formed between the second side end portion 95 a 2 of the ball receiving surface 95 a and the left wall portion 93 a of the second winning opening structure 93. For example, in the second ball receiving portion 95 ′ of the present configuration example, the rotation shaft 95d is provided closer to the second side end portion 95a2 of the ball receiving surface 95a than the center of gravity, so the second ball receiving portion 95 in the normal state. ', The first side end portion 95a1 abuts against the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guide wall portion 812', and is separated only between the second side end portion 95a2 and the left side wall portion 93a of the second winning prize opening structure 93. When the game ball placed on the ball receiving surface 95a reaches the second side end portion 95a2 side with respect to the rotation shaft 95d, the second ball receiving portion 95 ′ is on the second winning opening structure 93 side. The second side end portion 95a2 comes into contact with the left side wall portion 93a of the second winning opening structure 93, and conversely, the first side end portion 95a1 and the inner wall surface 812a of the inner guide wall portion 812 ' A gap space is created between them.

このように、第1,第2球受部94′,95′を回動可能に設けておけば、第1,第2副アウト口7e1,7e2に流下してきた遊技球の流下勢が強い場合でも、第1,第2球受け部94′,95′が回動することにより遊技球から受ける衝撃を吸収でき、第1,第2球受け部94′,95′の損傷を効果的に防止できる。また、遊技球が衝接することに伴って第1,第2球受け部94′,95′が回動することにより、球受け面94a,95aにおける遊技球の転動を促すので、遊技球は第1,第2アウト開口部91a,91bから第1,第2案内部96,97の案内面96a,97aへ円滑に流下することとなり、第1,第2球受部94′,95′での球詰まり防止に有効である。   As described above, when the first and second ball receiving portions 94 ′ and 95 ′ are provided so as to be rotatable, the downflow force of the game ball flowing down to the first and second sub-out ports 7e1 and 7e2 is strong. However, the impact received from the game ball can be absorbed by the rotation of the first and second ball receiving portions 94 ′ and 95 ′, and the damage to the first and second ball receiving portions 94 ′ and 95 ′ can be effectively prevented. it can. In addition, since the first and second ball receiving portions 94 'and 95' rotate as the game balls come into contact with each other, the game balls are urged to roll on the ball receiving surfaces 94a and 95a. The first and second out openings 91a and 91b smoothly flow down to the guide surfaces 96a and 97a of the first and second guide portions 96 and 97, and the first and second ball receiving portions 94 ′ and 95 ′. This is effective in preventing ball clogging.

なお、常態における第1球受部94′は、第2側端部94a2が第1入賞口構成体92の左側壁部92aに当接して、第1側端部94a1と内側誘導壁部812′の内壁面812aとの間に離隔空部が生ずるようにしても良い。或いは、適宜な付勢手段を設けることで、第1側端部94a1と内壁面812aとの間および第2側端部94a2と左側壁部92aとの間の両方に離隔空部が生ずるようにしても良い。また、第1,第2球受け部94′,95′を弾性部材(弾性ゴム等)により形成したり、球受け面94a,95aに弾性素材を貼付したりしておけば、第1,第2副アウト口7f1,7f2に向って流下してきた遊技球の流下勢を第1,第2球受け部94′,95′で効果的に吸収でき、内側誘導壁部812や第1,第2入賞口構成体92,93へ衝撃が伝搬することを防げる。   In the normal state, the first ball receiving portion 94 ′ has the second side end portion 94 a 2 in contact with the left side wall portion 92 a of the first winning opening structure 92, and the first side end portion 94 a 1 and the inner guide wall portion 812 ′. A space may be formed between the inner wall surface 812a of the first and second walls. Alternatively, by providing appropriate urging means, a gap is formed between the first side end portion 94a1 and the inner wall surface 812a and between the second side end portion 94a2 and the left side wall portion 92a. May be. If the first and second ball receiving portions 94 'and 95' are formed of an elastic member (elastic rubber or the like) or an elastic material is attached to the ball receiving surfaces 94a and 95a, the first and first ball receiving portions 94 'and 95' are formed. The downward force of the game ball flowing down toward the two secondary out ports 7f1, 7f2 can be effectively absorbed by the first and second ball receiving portions 94 ', 95', and the inner guide wall portion 812 and the first, second It is possible to prevent the impact from propagating to the winning opening structure 92, 93.

さらに、本構成例の受入ユニット9′においては、第1,第2球受け部94′,95′が第1,第2副アウト口7f1,7f2に向って流下してきた遊技球が直接当たることで回動するだけではなく、発射装置によって弾発された発射球によっても間接的に回動力を受けて回動する構造とした。   Further, in the receiving unit 9 ′ of this configuration example, the first and second ball receiving portions 94 ′ and 95 ′ directly hit the game balls flowing down toward the first and second sub-out ports 7f1 and 7f2. In addition to being rotated by the launching device, the rotating ball is also indirectly rotated by the launching ball bulleted by the launching device.

すなわち、第1球受け部94′の下部傾斜面94bから延出する受動部として基端部94eと受圧片94fを設け、この受動部を内側誘導壁部812′に設けた第1挿通孔815aを介して発射球案内路81aへ導入し、標準的な弾発勢による遊技球の飛入軌跡に達するように受圧片94fを位置させておくのである。同様に、第2球受け部95′の下部傾斜面95bから延出する受動部として基端部95eと受圧片95fを設け、この受動部を内側誘導壁部812′に設けた第2挿通孔815bを介して発射球案内路81aへ導入し、標準的な弾発勢による遊技球の飛入軌跡(発射装置により発射された遊技球の衝接可能範囲)に達するように受圧片95fの自由端を位置させておくのである。   That is, a base end portion 94e and a pressure receiving piece 94f are provided as passive portions extending from the lower inclined surface 94b of the first ball receiving portion 94 ', and the passive portion is provided in the first guide hole 815a provided in the inner guide wall portion 812'. Then, the pressure receiving piece 94f is positioned so as to reach the inflow trajectory of the game ball by the standard bullet force. Similarly, a second insertion hole in which a base end portion 95e and a pressure receiving piece 95f are provided as passive portions extending from the lower inclined surface 95b of the second ball receiving portion 95 ', and this passive portion is provided in the inner guide wall portion 812'. The pressure receiving piece 95f is freely introduced so that it can be introduced into the launch ball guide path 81a via 815b and reach the game ball intrusion trajectory (the range in which the game ball launched by the launch device can hit) by standard bullet force. The end is positioned.

斯くすれば、発射球が第1,第2球受け部94′,95′の受圧片94f,95fに当たって、そのまま移動して行くと、その力が基端部94e,95eを介して第1.第2球受け部94′,95′を回動させる力として作用し、第1,第2球受け部94′,95′の第2側端部94a2,95a2が各々第1,第2入賞口構成体92、93の左側壁部92a,93aに当接する方向に回動し、発射球が受圧片94f,95fの当接可能範囲を越えてしまうと受圧片94f,95fに対する遊技球の押圧力が消え、第1,第2球受け部94′,95′は自重により常態へ回動復帰する。このように、回動可能な第1,第2球受け部94′,95′から発射球案内路81aに延出する受動部の先端である受圧片94f,95fの自由端を発射球の衝接可能範囲に位置させておくことで、遊技球が発射される毎に第1,第2球受部94′,95′が回動範囲を往復回動することとなり、第1,第2球受け部94′,95′から第1,第2アウト開口部91a,91bを通過できずに遊技球が滞留してしまうような事態を効果的に回避できる。   In this case, when the projecting ball hits the pressure receiving pieces 94f and 95f of the first and second ball receiving portions 94 'and 95' and moves as they are, the force is transmitted through the base end portions 94e and 95e. The second ball receiving portions 94 'and 95' act as a force for rotating, and the second side end portions 94a2 and 95a2 of the first and second ball receiving portions 94 'and 95' are respectively the first and second winning holes. When the ball is turned in a direction to contact the left side walls 92a and 93a of the structural bodies 92 and 93 and the firing ball exceeds the contactable range of the pressure receiving pieces 94f and 95f, the pressure of the game ball against the pressure receiving pieces 94f and 95f Disappears, and the first and second ball receiving portions 94 ′ and 95 ′ are returned to the normal state by their own weight. In this way, the free ends of the pressure receiving pieces 94f and 95f, which are the leading ends of the passive portions extending from the rotatable first and second ball receiving portions 94 'and 95' to the firing ball guide path 81a, are used as the impact of the launch ball. By being positioned within the contactable range, the first and second ball receiving portions 94 'and 95' reciprocate in the rotation range each time a game ball is launched, and the first and second balls It is possible to effectively avoid a situation in which the game ball stays without being able to pass through the first and second out openings 91a and 91b from the receiving portions 94 'and 95'.
