Description

  The present invention relates to a game management device that manages game-related information of a plurality of revolving game machines, and a game hall system including the game management device, and in particular, without providing a new detection output, The present invention relates to a game management device and a game hall system that can determine an input signal abnormality, a payout signal abnormality, and the like using an output signal of the above-mentioned spinning-type game machine.

In general, a revolving type gaming machine (slot machine) is known as a gaming machine installed in a game arcade.
In the spinning machine, the player inserts a game medium (medal) and operates (presses) the spinning device rotation start device (start lever) so that a pattern such as a predetermined pattern, letters, numbers, etc. (hereinafter “ A plurality of (usually three) reels displaying “design” are generally started to rotate, and the rotation is stopped by pressing a plurality of (usually three) stop buttons corresponding to each reel at an arbitrary timing. This is a gaming machine in which a rotating reel is stopped by operating the apparatus, and a predetermined number of game media are paid out in accordance with the arrangement of the symbols of the stopped reels.

By the way, a game management device (management device) is used to determine the abnormal value of the number of inserted medals (inserted number) and the number of medals to be paid out (number of paid-outs) due to winning a prize in a revolving game machine (hereinafter simply referred to as “gaming machine”). In the case of performing in (1), an abnormality that deviates from the range of the payout rate in a preset section by monitoring the payout rate in a bonus state or a normal state other than the bonus state is detected and notified.
For example, when the payout rate in a predetermined section (for example, 100 shots) in a normal state deviates from within a predetermined range (for example, 5% to 60%), it was determined that there was an abnormality and notified. .

In addition, the insertion signal output from the gaming machine to the outside detects the number of medals inserted or credited medals based on the operation of the bet push button, and determines whether the number is a prescribed number. As a result, a pulse signal corresponding to the number is output at the timing of the start lever operation.
Furthermore, the payout signal output to the outside from the gaming machine is determined based on the winning as a result of the game, the payout device is driven to pay out medals, and the payout medal is detected each time the payout medal is detected. It outputs as a pulse signal and stops the payout device when it matches the specified payout number.
If the number of payouts does not reach the specified number even after a predetermined time (for example, 3 seconds), it is determined that the hopper is empty, and the operation of the gaming machine is stopped and notified.

  Also, as a special case, when the re-playing pattern is stopped as a result of the game, regardless of whether the game is inserted or won, a signal of 3 payouts is output to the outside. The signal is output to the outside.

In addition to the empty hopper, the gaming machine itself detects an abnormality related to payout, notifies it, and stops operation.
For example, even when a payout command signal is output to the payout device, when a payout detection signal is not detected, when a payout detection signal is detected without a payout command signal, the operating state of the payout is in a normal state. When it deviates, when the on time and interval of the payout detection signal deviate from the prescribed range, etc. (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 to 3).

In addition to the above-described method, a detection device that detects a payout abnormality based on an external output signal of a gaming machine can use a winning signal, a throwing signal, a start signal, a turning stop signal, a paying device operation signal, etc. Some have been proposed that detect an unnatural payout and determine an abnormality (see, for example, Patent Documents 4 and 5).
JP 2002-172204 A JP 2003-047689 A. JP 2005-334406 A JP 2001-149529 A JP 2005-253663 A

  However, a method of determining an abnormality when the payout rate in a predetermined section (for example, 100 sheets inserted) in a normal state deviates from a predetermined range (for example, 5% to 60%) Since it is determined after the game section, the notification is delayed. In addition, when small roles are concentrated in a short period of time, it may be determined to be abnormal although it is normal.

Further, although the gaming machine itself detects a payout abnormality, the abnormality signal is hardly output to the outside.
It is important for the management device of the game hall to quickly detect a payout abnormality in terms of the reliability of the counting result and the quick response to the abnormality.
However, external output signals of gaming machines are limited, and external output signals described in Patent Documents 4 and 5 are not output in most gaming machines.

  Furthermore, most of the input signals and payout signals with high output frequency are output from the output terminals of the gaming machine through relay contacts. The input signal and the payout signal that are normally output are not normal when the normal signal is not output due to deterioration or failure of the output signal system or output relay of the gaming machine, or because the transmission line or reception system is abnormal. If the management device processes the signal as a regular one, a big difference occurs in the total result.

  The present invention has been considered in view of the above circumstances, and detects abnormalities relating to the input signal and payout signal that are normally output in most current gaming machines, and signals in the gaming machine, transmission line, and management device. GAME MANAGEMENT APPARATUS AND GAME AREA SYSTEM FOR NOTIFYING SYSTEM ABNORMALITY AND DETECTING DETECTION OF A PAPERING DEVICE BASED ON PAYOUT SIGNAL AND DETERMINING LOW HOPER REMAINING IN TIME The purpose is to provide.

  In order to achieve this object, the gaming management device of the present invention is a gaming management device that aggregates and manages gaming-related information of a revolving game machine. A receiving means for receiving a signal and a winning medal payout signal, a storing means for storing a prescribed inserted medal number and / or a prescribed winning medal payout number for each gaming state of the revolving game machine, and a bonus-related signal. The current gaming state of the torso type gaming machine is determined, and the number of inserted medals detected from the medal insertion signal and / or the winning medal payout number detected from the winning medal payout signal is the specified number of inserted medals in the current gaming state and / or And a determination means for determining that an insertion signal abnormality and / or a dispensing signal abnormality has occurred when the prescribed winning medal payout number is not stored. .

When the gaming management device has such a configuration, a signal related to a bonus signal, a medal insertion signal, and a winning medal payout signal, which are normally output from a revolving game machine, are used to detect an insertion signal abnormality or a payout signal abnormality. Can be judged.
Further, since the number of inserted or paid-out games for each game is detected to determine an abnormality in the insertion signal, etc., an abnormality can be found more quickly than in the case of determining every predetermined section (for example, every 100 sheets inserted). Can do. Therefore, it is possible to quickly cope with the abnormality that has occurred without delaying the notification.

In the game management device of the present invention, the storage means stores the reference payout time set for each winning medal payout number, and the determination means confirms the detection of the medal insertion signal, and then the first winning medal payout If the time from the detection of the signal until the detection of the next medal insertion signal until the last winning medal payout signal is detected exceeds the reference payout time, the payout device will idle. It is possible to adopt a configuration in which it is determined that the remaining amount of medals in the hopper is small by recognizing that the medals exist.
If the game management apparatus has such a configuration, it is possible to determine whether the remaining amount of the hopper is low based on the medal insertion signal and the winning medal payout signal that are normally output from the spinning type gaming machine.

In addition, the game management device of the present invention displays a counting means for counting the number of occurrences for each spinning machine and / or abnormality type in a predetermined section, and displays the number of occurrences counted by the counting means. The display means can be configured.
When the game management device has such a configuration, the game hall managers can check the occurrence status of an abnormality in a predetermined section by looking at the counting result displayed on the display means. The counting result can be printed out by a printing apparatus.

In addition, the game hall system of the present invention is a game hall system including one or two or more turn-type game machines and a game management device for collecting and managing game-related information of these turn-type game machines. The game management device can include the game management device according to any one of claims 1 to 3.
If the game hall system has such a configuration, the above-described effects can be obtained in the game management device provided in the game hall system.

  As described above, according to the present invention, without using a new detection output, an output signal abnormality or a turn-in gaming machine can be detected in real time for each game of the spinning machine using the output signal of a normal spinning machine. Since it determines the payout signal abnormality, it detects and notifies the abnormality of the signal system with the game management device related to the insertion and withdrawal of the gaming machine, so the reliability of the total data can be confirmed and appropriate abnormality processing is possible, In addition, it is possible to perform a quick medal replenishment process by determining and notifying that the hopper remaining amount is low. Furthermore, it is possible to detect an abnormal operation of the hopper itself, for example, a motor abnormality.

  Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of a game management device and a game hall system according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[Amusement hall system]

The predetermined signal includes, for example, a bonus related signal, a medal insertion signal (insertion signal), a winning medal payout signal (payout signal), and the like.
Here, the bonus-related signal refers to a signal indicating whether or not the gaming machine 10 is currently in a bonus game. This bonus-related signal includes, for example, a big bonus signal (BB signal) and a regular bonus signal (RB signal).
Since the input signal and the payout signal have already been described in [Background Art], description thereof is omitted here.

  Further, the communication unit 51 can transmit a notification signal to the gaming machine 10 that is determined to have an abnormality by the determination unit 53. In the gaming machine 10 that has received the notification signal, the notification means (for example, a lamp or a speaker) provided in the gaming machine 10 can be operated to notify the hall employee or the like of the occurrence of an abnormality.

  The storage unit 52 stores data and programs related to various functions of the management device 50. In addition, the storage unit 52 stores various game-related information that is tabulated and calculated based on various signals received by the communication unit 51. This game-related information includes, for example, information related to a bonus game, information related to medal insertion, information related to medal payout, and various other information.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 3, the storage means 52 registers and stores the prescribed inserted medal number and the prescribed prize medal payout number set for each model and each gaming state.
Here, “normal”, “BB”, and “RB” in the figure represent the gaming state of the gaming machine, which are a normal state, a BB general state, and an RB state, respectively. Further, in the drawing, “Payout” represents the prescribed payout medal payout number, and “Insert” represents the prescribed payout medal number.

Further, the storage means 52 registers and stores a reference payout time for each payout number.
The reference payout time is a time obtained by multiplying the maximum time (for example, 0.1 second) per normal payout based on the performance of the payout device of the gaming machine 1 by the payout number. For example, when the payout number is 15, it is 0.1 seconds × 15 sheets = 1.5 seconds.
The storage unit 52 stores the result of determination by the determination unit 53. Using the result of this determination, an abnormal game table list (FIG. 6), a form (FIG. 7), an abnormal history table (FIG. 8), etc., in which game related information is tabulated are created.

The output unit 57 transmits / receives data (including data related to an abnormality occurrence management table (described later)) to / from peripheral devices of the management device 50 (for example, a printing device or an external storage device).

[Operation of game management device]
(Determination of gaming state of gaming machine)
Next, the determination of the gaming state of the gaming machine among the operations of the management device of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.
This figure is a waveform diagram showing specific examples of the waveforms of the BB signal and the RB signal and the determination result of the gaming state.

The communication unit 51 of the management device 50 receives the BB signal and the RB signal from the gaming machine 10.
The determination means 53 of the management device 50 determines the current gaming state of the gaming machine based on the BB signal and the RB signal.

For example, when neither the BB signal nor the RB signal is detected, the normal state is determined ((1) in FIG. 4).
When the RB signal is detected, the RB state is determined regardless of whether the BB signal is detected ((2) in the figure).
When the BB signal is detected but the RB signal is not detected, it is determined that the state is the BB general state ((3) in the figure).
By such determination, the current gaming state in the gaming machine 10 can be confirmed.

(Determining whether an abnormality has occurred)
Next, of the operations of the management apparatus according to the present embodiment, the determination of whether or not an abnormality has occurred will be described with reference to FIGS.
FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating specific examples of waveforms of the insertion signal and the payout signal.
As described above, the storage means 52 of the management device 50 stores the types of prescribed inserted medals and prescribed prize medals paid out for each model and gaming state of the plurality of gaming machines 10 installed in the game hall. Is registered and stored. The storage means 52 registers and stores a reference payout time for each payout number for each model.

(1) Payout signal abnormality The payout signal is received from the gaming machine 10 in the communication means 51 of the management device 50.
In the determination means 53 of the management device 50, the current gaming state in the gaming machine 10 is confirmed. Next, the determination means 53 counts the payout signal.
The prescribed prize medal payout number in the gaming state of the gaming machine 10 registered and stored in the storage means 52 is compared with the payout number counted by the determination means 53. And stored in the storage means 52.

A specific example will be described.
For example, for the gaming machine 10 of model A, it is assumed that the current gaming state is confirmed to be “normal state”. Assume that the payout signal output from the gaming machine 10 is “Payout (1)” in FIG.
The number of payouts counted by the determination means 53 is “6”. On the other hand, in the table shown in FIG. 3, “6” is registered and stored as the prescribed prize medal payout number in the “normal state” of the model A. In this case, the determination means 53 determines that no payout signal abnormality has occurred.

Further, for example, it is assumed that the current gaming state of the gaming machine 10 of model B is confirmed to be “normal state”. Assume that the payout signal output from the gaming machine 10 is “Payout (1)” in FIG.
The number of payout medals counted by the determination means 53 is “6”. On the other hand, in the table shown in FIG. 3, “6” is not registered / stored in the prescribed prize medal payout number in the “normal state” of the model B. In this case, the determination unit 53 determines that a payout signal abnormality has occurred.
The reason that such a determination is possible is that the number of payouts is originally determined for each model and for each gaming state as the number of specified payout medals.

(2) Input signal abnormality Moreover, the determination means 53 determines the presence or absence of occurrence of an input signal abnormality.
The inserted number counted from the inserted signal is compared with a predetermined inserted medal number for each model and game state registered and stored in advance, and those that deviate are stored as an abnormal inserted signal.
For example, for the gaming machine 10 of model A, it is assumed that the current gaming state is “normal state” and the inserted number counted by the determination means 53 is “3”. On the other hand, in the table shown in FIG. 3, “3” is registered and stored as the prescribed number of inserted medals in the “normal state” of the model A. In this case, since the counted inserted number does not deviate from the prescribed inserted medal number, the determination unit 53 determines that the insertion signal abnormality has not occurred.

Further, for example, for the gaming machine 10 of model A, it is assumed that the current gaming state is “RB state” and the counted number of inserted games is “3”. On the other hand, in the table shown in FIG. 3, “3” is not registered / stored in the prescribed number of inserted medals in the “RB state” of the model A. In this case, since the counted inserted number deviates from the predetermined inserted medal number, the determination unit 53 determines that an insertion signal abnormality has occurred.
The reason why such a determination is possible is that the number of inserted coins is determined in advance for each model and each gaming state as the prescribed inserted medal number.

(3) Low hopper remaining amount Further, the determination unit 53 determines whether the hopper remaining amount is low.
In the storage means, a reference payout time set for each payout number is registered and stored in advance.
The determination means 53 confirms the detection of the input signal (FIG. 5A), starts counting from the time when the first payout signal is detected (FIG. 5B) until the next input signal is detected ( The last payout signal is detected in FIG. If this timekeeping time ((d1), (d2) in the figure) exceeds the reference payout time S stored for the gaming machine 1, the payout device recognizes that there has been a slipping in the hopper. It is determined that the remaining amount of medals is small and stored.

For example, as shown in “Payout (1)” in the figure, the time from when the first payout signal is detected until the last payout signal is detected (payout completion time d1) is based on the number of payouts. When the reference payout time S is not exceeded, it is determined that the hopper has enough medals stored (the hopper remaining amount is not low).
On the other hand, the last payout signal is detected before the next input signal is detected and the payout completion time d2 exceeds the reference payout time S as shown in “Payout (2)” in FIG. When it is recognized that the payout device is idling, the remaining amount of the medal hopper is determined and stored.

The reason why this determination is possible is as follows.
When enough medals are stored in the hopper, the time required for paying out all winning medals (payout completion time) does not exceed the reference payout time.
On the other hand, when the remaining amount of medals in the hopper is small, even if the rotating disk at the bottom of the hopper rotates, the medals may not be taken in well and may idle. For this reason, the payout completion time becomes longer by the amount of idling and exceeds the reference payout time.
However, when there is no medal in the hopper (when the hopper is empty), no payout signal is detected because there is no payout. If the hopper becomes empty during the payout, the final payout signal is not detected until the next input signal is detected.
Therefore, when the last payout signal is detected before the next medal insertion signal is detected and the payout completion time deviates from the reference payout time, it is determined that the remaining amount of the hopper is small. it can.

In the present embodiment, it is determined that the “hopper remaining amount is low” in the case of payout (2) in FIG. 5, but it is also possible to detect an abnormal operation of the hopper itself.
For example, in the case of an abnormality of the motor provided in the dispensing device, an abnormal rotation of the rotating disk at the bottom of the hopper, a waveform like the dispensing (2) in the figure may be output. In this case, an abnormal operation of the hopper itself is detected.

(Storing and verifying count values)
The inserted number and paid-out number determined to be abnormal by the determination means 53 are stored in the storage means 52 together with the machine number and the gaming state at that time so that it can be verified later.
For example, for the model A gaming machine, when “RB state” which is the gaming state at that time and “14 pieces” which is the payout number are stored, in the later verification, the prescribed winning in the RB state Since the medal payout number is usually 15, it can be determined that an abnormality has occurred.
In addition, for the game machine of model A, when the “normal state” that is the gaming state at that time and “3” that is the payout number are stored, in the subsequent verification, the prescribed winning in the normal state Since the medal payout number is “0, 2, 4, 6, 10” (FIG. 3), it can be determined that an abnormality has occurred.

(Notification when an abnormality occurs)
Next, notification when it is determined that an abnormality has occurred will be described.
The management device 50 notifies the stored determination of whether the input signal is abnormal, the payout signal is abnormal, or the remaining amount of the hopper is small for each corresponding gaming machine, and the number of times is counted for each gaming machine. Output.
For example, if it is determined by the determination means 53 that “the payout signal abnormality has occurred in the spinning cylinder gaming machine 10 a with the machine number 123”, the determination content is stored in the storage means 52. Then, a notification signal is transmitted from the communication means 51 to the spinning cylinder game machine 10a having the machine number 123.

Upon receiving the notification signal, the spinning cylinder gaming machine 10a having the table number 123 performs blinking of a lamp, output of a notification sound from a speaker, and the like.
Also, in the management device 50, characters such as “abnormality occurrence” are displayed on the screen of the display means 55, or a layout diagram of the game hall is displayed on the display means 55, and the gaming machine 10 in which an abnormality has occurred is displayed in color. It is also possible to notify that an abnormality has occurred, for example, by outputting a notification sound from a speaker.
With these, it is possible to immediately notify hall employees or the like that an abnormality has occurred.

(Abnormality occurrence management table)
Next, a management table relating to abnormality will be described with reference to FIGS.
6 shows an abnormal gaming table list, FIG. 7 shows a form, and FIG. 8 shows an abnormal history table.

The abnormal gaming table list displays gaming machines in which an abnormality has occurred in order of the number of occurrences. In this list, the machine number of the gaming machine and the number of occurrences for each type of abnormality are displayed.
The form displays normal game-related information and the number of abnormal times for each gaming machine. In this form, for a gaming machine having one or more abnormal times, highlighting such as changing the background color can be performed.
The abnormality history table displays the contents in the order of detecting the abnormality. This abnormality history table includes, for example, date, occurrence number. (Serial number), abnormality type (content), gaming machine stand number, abnormality occurrence time, etc. are displayed.

These management tables are created based on the result of counting the number of occurrences for each gaming machine or for each type of abnormality in a predetermined section (for example, one business day) in the judging means (counting means) 53.
These management tables can be displayed on the display means 55 of the management device 50. Further, it can be printed out by a printing apparatus.

  As described above, according to the game management device and the game hall system of the present embodiment, using the signal normally output from the gaming machine, whether or not the input signal abnormality or the payout signal abnormality occurs in the management device Can be determined. Since this determination is performed in real time while the gaming machine is operating, it is possible to respond quickly when an abnormality occurs.

Note that the game management device and the game hall system in the above embodiments can be realized by a computer controlled by a program. The program is provided by a recording medium, for example. As the recording medium, for example, a magnetic disk, an optical disk, a semiconductor memory, or any other means readable by a computer can be used.
