  On the side of the pachinko machine 1 (on the left side in the figure), there is a ball lending machine 15 between the pachinko machines 1 and the lottery issuing device 11. A game ball (pachinko ball) is rented from the pedestal ball lending machine 15 or the pachinko machine 1 itself by inserting cash or a prepaid card into the pedestal ball lending machine 15, and a ball ball game becomes possible.

  The lottery issuing device 11 includes a lottery outlet 21 at the bottom and a wireless antenna 22 at the top. As shown in FIG. 3, the lottery issuing device 11 includes a lottery discharge unit 23 that discharges printed “lottery” from the lottery discharge port 21, a communication unit 24 that transmits and receives via the wireless antenna 22, lottery discharge, communication, and the like. A central processing unit (CPU) 25 for controlling the various processes and a data input unit 26 for inputting data necessary for the control processing are incorporated. A signal corresponding to the game situation is input to the CPU 25 from the game situation detection means 27 that detects the game situation of the pachinko machine 10.

  The gaming state detection means 27 outputs a gaming state as an opportunity to issue a lottery 4 to the player from the control unit of the pachinko machine 10, and the CPU 25 issues the lottery 4 based on the output. It is set on the program so as to determine whether or not the condition for satisfying is satisfied. In the present embodiment, the lottery is issued under the condition that the number of out balls reaches a predetermined number in the pachinko machine 10, and the game situation detecting means 27 is an out ball sensor (not shown) described later. Other than this, the lottery is issued when the game on the pachinko machine 10 continues for a predetermined time or when the result of the effect display by the special symbol variation display on the liquid crystal display device 14 becomes a big hit. It may be a good time.

  The lottery discharge unit 23 stores a roll paper 30 as a lottery medium for creating the lottery 4, and includes a feed mechanism 31 including a feed roller that draws the leading end portion in a direction to be discharged from the lottery discharge port 21, and the feed mechanism 31. 4 is provided with a printing means 32 for printing on the upper surface of the roll paper 30 drawn out to the roll paper 30, and a cutter 33 for cutting off the portion of the lot 4 printed from the leading edge of the roll paper 30 (FIG. 4) from the subsequent roll paper 30. Yes. Here, the feed mechanism 31 and the printing unit 32 are driven and controlled by a control signal from the CPU 25.

  As shown in FIG. 4A, the lot 4 is defined by a line 4b indicating a position where the roll paper 30 having a certain width is separated by a predetermined distance in the length direction (cut by the cutter 33). It consists of a rectangular part 4a, and a predetermined QR code 4c and a lottery description 4e are printed in advance on the front and rear parts (upper and lower in the figure) of this rectangular part 4a, and the part between them is printed The area 4d is printed by the printing means 32. In the print area 4d, as shown in FIG. 4B, a two-digit location code 41 indicating the location (for example, a prefecture) of the game store where the gaming machine 1 is located is specified in order from the left. A three-digit store (hall) code 42, a two-digit lottery code 43 indicating the lottery number of the lottery, and a four-digit model code 44 indicating the model of the gaming machine are printed.

  In FIG. 3 again, the communication unit 24 is a transmission means for transmitting the print contents (character data) of the lottery 4 to the site server 1 of the gaming machine manufacturer when the lottery 4 is issued.

  Hereinafter, processing for issuing a lottery for a questionnaire in the questionnaire collection system of the present embodiment will be described. This process is performed by the CPU 25 of the lottery issuing device 11.

  FIG. 5 shows the main process.

  In the present embodiment, the total number of out balls in the pachinko machine 10, that is, the number of out balls that have been released from the out mouth at the lower end of the game board without winning the game balls launched on the game board by the player's launch operation. The fact that the number reaches the predetermined number is a condition (trigger) for the lottery issue. Therefore, first, “lottery flag processing” is performed (ST1). In the lottery discharge flag process, the lottery discharge flag is set when the total number of out balls reaches a predetermined number (for example, 5000).

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, it is first determined whether or not the out ball sensor is turned on in the pachinko machine 10 (ST11). In order to detect this out ball, a ball detector (out ball sensor) is disposed in a ball path extending from the out port of the pachinko machine 10 to the inside, and the detection signal is input to the CPU 25. If “No” is detected in ST11, that is, if an out ball is not detected, the time of the timer T set to a predetermined time n is subtracted every time an out ball is detected as described below (ST12), and the process returns to the beginning. . The subtraction time is a time (period, for example, 4 milliseconds) for each time of the main processing in FIG.

  If “Yes” in ST11, a predetermined time n is set in the timer T (ST13). The set time n is, for example, 5 minutes. This is a condition for the lottery issuance when it is determined that there is no game ball fired because the player is not in the front seat of the pachinko machine 1 or the like if no out ball is detected within this set time. This is to reset the total number of out balls.

  In addition, since the out sphere is detected, 1 (number) is added to the storage area (memory) for storing the total number of out spheres (ST14). Then, it is checked whether or not the storage number (out ball number) of this storage area exceeds 5000 (ST15), and if it is 5000 or less, the process ends. If it exceeds 5000, a lottery discharge flag is set (ST16). Then, the storage area is reset (cleared) (ST17), and the process ends.

  Next, “lottery discharge processing” is performed (ST2).

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 7, first, it is checked whether or not the lottery discharge flag is set in the “lottery flag processing” (ST21). If “No”, the processing is terminated. In the case of “Yes”, the character to be printed is set in the print area 4d of the roll paper 30 as described above (ST22), and the printing process by the printing means 32 is performed (ST23). When the printing is finished, a process for driving the feed mechanism 31 is performed to discharge the lottery 4 (ST24). After this process or simultaneously with this process, a process for transmitting the printed content (character data) from the wireless antenna 22 of the communication unit 24 to the site server 1 is performed (ST25). When the above process is completed, the lottery flag is reset (ST26), and the process is terminated.

  In FIG. 5 again, when the “lottery discharge process” in ST2 is completed, it is determined whether or not the timer T has decreased from the time n set in the “lottery discharge flag process” (ST3). If the result is “No”, that is, T = n, the process returns to the beginning. If “Yes”, that is, T <n, it is determined whether the timer T is 0 or less (ST4). If “No”, that is, T> 0, the process returns to the beginning. If “Yes”, the storage area is reset on the assumption that no game ball is fired as described above (ST5).

  Next, processing after the above lottery is issued to the player will be described.

  FIG. 8 shows a process for receiving and storing the print content (character data) transmitted from the communication unit 24 of the lottery issuing device 11 by the site server 1.

  First, it is checked whether or not the print data transmitted from the lottery issuing device 11 has been received (ST31). If “Yes”, the received print data is stored in a predetermined storage area (memory) as a login code described later. (ST32), and this process ends.

  FIG. 9 shows processing when the player answers the questionnaire of the gaming machine manufacturer after the lottery issuance. This processing is executed by a processing unit of the computer according to a program stored in the computer constituting the site server 1 described above.

  First, it is determined whether or not a “questionnaire answer” is input to the site server 1 (ST41). This input is generated when the player or the user selects “questionnaire answer” on the homepage of the gaming machine manufacturer displayed on the user terminal 3 such as a mobile phone or a PC (personal computer). When this input is made, the computer displays a “login screen” on the user terminal 3 (ST42).

  This “login screen” is a vertically long display screen as shown in FIG. 11A when the user terminal 3 is a mobile phone, and as shown in FIG. 11B when the user terminal 3 is a PC. This is a horizontally long display screen. In any display screen, a “login code input field” and a “login” selection button are displayed. The login code to be entered in the “login code input field” is described in the lottery 4 in the above-mentioned QR code and alphanumeric characters that can be visually recognized by the user, and the mobile terminal such as a mobile phone in which the user terminal 3 can read the QR code. In this case, the login code is automatically input by reading the QR code. If it is not such a terminal, the user can directly enter the login code.

  Next, the computer determines whether or not there is “login” (ST43). The “login” is detected by the computer when the user clicks the “login” selection button after the login code is input on the “login screen”. If it is determined that there is “login”, the computer executes “login authentication processing” (ST44). A program for causing a computer to execute this “login authentication process” is an authentication means in the present invention.

  Details of the “login authentication process” will be described below with reference to FIG.

  First, it is checked whether or not the login code is received from the user terminal 3 (ST44-1). If “No”, the process is terminated. In the case of “Yes”, it is determined whether or not the received login code is recorded in the storage area (ST44-2). If “Yes”, it is determined whether or not the flag (reception flag) of the received login code is set (ST44-3). If “No”, the “questionnaire screen” is displayed (ST44-). 4). On the other hand, if “No” is determined in ST44-2, it is determined that the access is not an appropriate lottery, and if “Yes” is determined in ST44-3, a “prize lottery” process (ST45 described later) is performed. ), The result of winning or losing is obtained, and the “reception flag” is set in ST49, which will be described later. In either case, a “login non-approval screen” is displayed to notify that “login” is not possible (ST44). -5).

  FIG. 12 shows a display example of the “questionnaire screen”. On this screen, a login code and a questionnaire implementation date are displayed, as well as questions about the respondent himself and the gaming machine, and options and entry fields as answers. When the answerer finishes selecting and filling in the answer, the respondent can click this button to end this screen.

  When the “login authentication process” is completed, the computer performs a prize lottery process (ST45). In this process, first, as shown in FIG. 13A, a display unit for effect images of video slots or other games, and “start” and “stop” buttons for starting or stopping the lottery, It is displayed on the terminal 3. If the respondent selects the “Start” button, the computer starts a game (lottery) where the prize is awarded, and the respondent presses (selects) the “Stop” button within a predetermined time or a random value. The winning / losing lottery is performed, the effect image is displayed until the result is displayed on the display unit, and then the lottery result is displayed as shown in FIG. After that, screen display corresponding to winning / not winning is performed.

  That is, as a result of the lottery (whether or not it is won in ST46), the “winning screen” is displayed in the case of winning (ST47), and the “losing screen” is displayed in the case of unwinning (ST48). Here, as shown in FIG. 14 (A), the “winning screen” has two buttons that can be used to select “whether to give away the prize” or “decline” together with the display that the prize has been won and the prize has been won. indicate. Further, as shown in FIG. 14B, the “decision screen” displays a message prompting participation of the next lot together with a display of “sorry”. At the same time or after the display of such a winning / losing screen, the computer sets a reception flag corresponding to the login code (ST49). As a result, the fact that the lottery has been completed is set, and login is impossible in the above-described “login authentication” (ST44).

  Next, the presence / absence of a premium is checked (ST50). This means that if the result of the lottery is a win and the respondent chooses to send a free gift, the free gift will be sent, otherwise the free gift will not be sent. Therefore, if “No” in ST50, the above questionnaire collection process is terminated, and if “Yes”, a delivery data input screen as shown in FIG. 15 is displayed on the user terminal 3 for gift delivery. Then, the delivery process (ST51) is performed in which the respondent inputs the address, name and the like of the delivery destination. The gaming machine manufacturer ships premiums based on the delivery data input here.

  According to the questionnaire collection system of the above embodiment, the player is given a “lottery” 4 that describes the procedure and explanation for answering the questionnaire when conditions such as a predetermined gaming state are satisfied. Therefore, using this, the site server 1 can be accessed easily and reliably and the questionnaire can be answered. In addition, since the “lottery” allows a lottery to win a prize when answering a questionnaire, the player answers the questionnaire in anticipation of winning, and the response rate can be improved.

  Although the embodiment has been described above, the present invention is not limited to this, and can be changed or added.

  For example, in the above embodiment, the management computer 2 is provided in the site server 1 constituting the questionnaire presenting site, but it may be constituted by one server.

  Further, although the lottery issuing device 11 is provided on a one-to-one basis with respect to the pachinko machine 10, the medium issuing device as a questionnaire information presenting means for prompting a questionnaire about the gaming machine is a predetermined position in the game hall, for example, a plurality of devices. It may be installed for each amusement island made up of gaming machines.

  Further, in order to improve the response rate to the questionnaire, a lottery for winning prizes is used as the questionnaire information presenting means, but a medium other than the lottery may be used.
