  Next, a prize ball payout control routine in the gaming machine of this embodiment will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 9, the main control board 70 receives a winning detection signal from any one of the winning detection sensors SE11, SE12, SE13, SE14, SE15, SE22, SE23, SE41, SE51 (S11: YES), a prize ball payout signal is output to the prize ball payout device 80 (S12). In the present embodiment, since the number of winning balls of all winning devices 11 and the like is 10, the winning ball payout signal is basically the same content command.

  Next, a main routine for control at the time of winning detection in the gaming machine of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. This routine is executed when a winning detection signal is input from any one of the winning detection sensors SE11, SE12, SE14, SE15, SE21, SE22, SE23, and SE36.

  First, as shown in FIG. 8, it is determined whether or not the winning detection signal input this time is from the winning detection sensor SE11 of the tulip type winning device 11 at the left-down position (S21). The most recently stored contents of the latch solenoid SOL11 of the solenoid control signal memory 71 are referred to (S22), and it is determined whether it is open / closed (S23).

  When the stored content is closed (S23 / closed), a winning signal during closing is output from the winning signal output terminal 72 (S24). Then, an open signal is output as a control signal for the SOL 11 (S25). As a result, the SOL 11 of the tulip-type winning device 11 at the left-down position performs a stroke movement to the rear end movement state, and the tulip blade is changed to the open state via the link LINK (FIGS. 4C and 4D). )reference). In addition, a winning signal during closing is input to the arithmetic device B.

  Thereafter, the stored contents of SOL11 of the solenoid control signal memory 71 are shifted in the past along the time series, and the latest stored contents are rewritten to open (S26).

  On the other hand, when the most recently stored content is open (S23 / open), a winning signal is output from the winning signal output terminal 72 (S27). Further, the stored contents of the last solenoid solenoid SOL11 of the solenoid control signal memory 71 are referred to (S28), and it is determined whether it is open / closed (S29). If this determination is “open”, a closing signal is output as a control signal for the SOL 11 (S30), and the stored contents of the solenoid control signal memory 71 for the SOL 11 are shifted in the past along the time series and the latest stored contents. Is rewritten as closed (S31). As a result, the SOL 11 of the tulip type winning device 11 at the left drop position performs a stroke motion to the front end moving state, and the tulip blade is changed to the closed state via the link LINK (FIGS. 4A and 4B). reference). In addition, an open winning signal is input to the arithmetic device B.

  On the other hand, if the determination in S29 is “closed”, an open signal is output as a control signal for SOL11 (S32), and the stored contents of SOL11 in solenoid control signal memory 71 are shifted in the past in time series. At the same time, the latest stored contents are rewritten to open (S33). In this case, although the open / close signal is output, the SOL 11 of the tulip winning device 11 at the left-down position is substantially maintained in the front end moving state.

  If S21 is “NO”, as shown in FIG. 11, it is determined whether or not the winning detection signal input this time is from the winning detection sensor SE12 of the tulip-type winning device 12 at the right-down position (S41). If “YES”, the rewrite of the stored contents of the latch solenoid SOL12 of the solenoid control signal memory 71, the output of the control signal to the SOL12, and the winning signal output from the winning signal output terminal 72 are executed in the same manner as S22 to S33 (S42). To S53).

  If S21 and S41 are both “NO”, as shown in FIG. 12, it is determined whether or not the winning detection signal input this time is from the winning detection sensor SE13 of the uppermost tulip winning device 13 at the center. (S61).

  Here, as described above, the tulip-type winning device 13 is set to be opened when a game ball wins in the central chucker winning opening 21, and thereafter, two winnings are detected and closed. Moreover, when a game ball wins the tulip-type winning device 13, the tulip-type winning device 14 in the middle of the vertical line is opened. Therefore, a slightly different control process from that in the case of winning the tulip type winning devices 11 and 12 at the left and right dropping positions is executed.

  If the determination in S61 is “YES”, an open winning signal is output from the winning signal output terminal 72 (S62). Then, an opening signal is output as a control signal for the SOL 14 of the middle tulip winning device 14 (S63), and the stored contents of the solenoid control signal memory 71 for the SOL 14 are shifted in the past along the time series and the latest memory is stored. The contents are rewritten to open (S64).

  Next, the stored contents of the solenoid control signal memory 71 immediately before the SOL 13 are referred to (S65), and whether to open / close is determined (S66). If this determination is “open”, a closing signal is output as a control signal for the SOL 13 (S67), and the stored contents of the solenoid control signal memory 71 for the SOL 13 are shifted in the past along the time series and the latest stored contents. Is rewritten as closed (S68).

  On the other hand, if the determination in S66 is “closed”, an open signal is output as a control signal for SOL13 (S69), and the stored contents of SOL13 in solenoid control signal memory 71 are shifted in the past in time series. At the same time, the latest stored contents are rewritten to open (S70). Although the opening signal is output in S69, the operating position of the SOL 13 of the tulip winning device 13 does not change, and the front end movement state is substantially maintained.

  If S61 is “NO”, as shown in FIG. 13, it is determined whether or not the winning detection signal input this time is from the winning detection sensor SE14 of the center tulip winning device 14 (S71).

  Here, as described above, the tulip-type winning device 14 in the middle of the center has a game ball placed in the tucker-type winning device 13 at the top of the center when the game ball wins the chucker winning opening 22 at the left shoulder position. It is opened when winning, and then two winnings are detected and closed. When a game ball wins the tulip winning device 14, the bottom tulip winning device 15 in the vertical line is opened.

  For this reason, if the determination in S71 is “YES”, an open winning signal is output from the winning signal output terminal 72 (S72). Then, an opening signal is output as a control signal for the SOL 15 of the tulip-type winning device 15 at the center bottom (S73), and the stored contents of the solenoid control signal memory 71 for the SOL 15 are shifted in the past in time series. The latest stored content is rewritten to open (S74).

  Hereinafter, the stored contents of the solenoid control signal memory 71 immediately before the SOL 14 are referred to (S75), and the same processing as the control processing after S66 for the tulip-type winning device 13 at the center top is executed (S76-). S80).

  If S71 is “NO”, as shown in FIG. 14, it is determined whether or not the winning detection signal input this time is from the winning detection sensor SE15 of the tulip type winning device 15 at the center bottom (S81). .

  Here, as explained above, the tulip type winning device 15 at the bottom of the center wins the game ball in the chucker winning port 23 in the right shoulder position when the game ball wins the chucker winning port 36 in the top position. When the game ball is won in the tulip type winning device 14 in the middle of the center, it is opened, and then one winning is detected and closed.

  For this reason, if the determination in S81 is "YES", an open winning signal is output from the winning signal output terminal 72 (S82). Then, a closing signal is output as a control signal for the SOL 15 of the tulip type winning device 15 at the center bottom (S83), and the stored contents of the SOL 15 of the solenoid control signal memory 71 are shifted in the past in time series. The latest stored content is rewritten to closed (S84).

  In addition, for the tulip-type winning devices 13 to 15 in the central vertical line, in order to realize a configuration in which the control process is unified and two units other than the bottom tulip-type winning device 15 are closed by winning, the solenoid control signal memory 71 Although the stored contents are rewritten, the signal output from the winning signal output terminal 72 is always a winning during opening (S63, S73, S83).

  When all of S21, S41, S61, S71, and S81 are “NO”, as shown in FIG. 15, whether or not the winning detection signal input this time is from the winning detection sensor SE21 of the central chucker winning opening 21. Is determined (S101). Then, if “YES”, a winning signal during closing is outputted from the winning signal output terminal 72 (S102). In addition, a release signal is output as a control signal for the SOL 13 of the tulip-type winning device 13 at the uppermost center (S103), and the stored contents of the SOL 13 of the solenoid control signal memory 71 are shifted in the past along the time series and most recently. Is rewritten to open (S104).

  If S101 is “NO”, as shown in FIG. 16, it is determined whether or not the winning detection signal input this time is from the winning detection sensor SE22 of the chucker winning opening 22 at the left shoulder position (S111). . If “YES”, a closing signal is output from the winning signal output terminal 72 (S112), and an opening signal is output as a control signal for the SOL 14 of the tulip type winning device 14 in the middle center (S113). The storage contents of the control signal memory 71 for the SOL 14 are shifted in the past along the time series, and the latest storage contents are rewritten to open (S114).

  On the other hand, when S111 is “NO”, as shown in FIG. 17, it is determined whether or not the winning detection signal input this time is from the winning detection sensor SE36 of the top position chucker winning opening 36 (S121). . If “YES”, a closing signal is output from the winning signal output terminal 72 (S122), and an opening signal is output as a control signal for the SOL 15 of the tulip-type winning device 15 at the center bottom (S123). Then, the stored contents of SOL15 in the solenoid control signal memory 71 are shifted in the past along the time series and the latest stored contents are rewritten to open (S124).

  If S121 is “NO”, it is determined whether or not the winning detection signal input this time is from the winning detection sensor SE23 of the chucker winning opening 23 at the right shoulder position (S131). If “YES”, a closing signal is output from the winning signal output terminal 72 (S132), and an opening signal is output as a control signal for the SOL 15 of the tulip-type winning device 15 at the center bottom (S133). Then, the stored contents of SOL15 in the solenoid control signal memory 71 are shifted in the past along the time series, and the latest stored contents are rewritten to open (S134).

  On the other hand, if S131 is also “NO”, a closed winning signal is output from the winning signal output terminal 72 (S141). The winning detection in this case is the left end normal winning port 41 or the right end normal winning port 51. Since these normal winning openings 41 and 51 are not linked to the tulip type winning devices 11 to 15, it is only necessary to output a winning signal during closing.

  Thus, at the time of winning detection, a closing winning signal or an opening winning signal is output. Further, in the case of winning to the chucker winning ports 21 to 23, 36 and the tulip type winning devices 11 to 15, rewriting of the solenoid control signal memory 71 and output of control signals to the SOLs 11 to 15 are executed. Further, in the case of winning a prize to the tulip type winning devices 11 and 12 at the left and right dropping positions, a process of determining whether the winning during opening or winning during closing based on the latest stored contents of the solenoid control signal memory 71 is executed.

  As shown in FIG. 18, the arithmetic device B determines the type of the input signal from the open winning signal and the closed winning signal output from the winning signal output terminal 72 of the main control board 70 in this manner (S301). The process of incrementing the open winning signal counter C1 or the closed winning signal counter C2 based on the determination result is repeatedly executed until the trial test is completed (S302, S303). When a command to the effect that the trial test has been completed is input (S304: YES), the count values of both counters C1 and C2 are read (S305), and the accessory ratio is calculated according to a predetermined formula (S306).

  Here, as a formula for calculating the bonus rate, in this embodiment, the winning ball payout numbers of the winning openings 11 to 15, 22, 23, 41, and 51 are the same, and the calculation is performed based on the ratio of the number of winning balls. When necessary, the following formula (1) can be used.

  Note that the total number of prize balls paid out may be used as a denominator and calculated using the following equation (2) only from the counted value of the winning prize signal during opening.

  The total number of payouts for the denominator in the denominator can be accurately obtained from the command output to the prize ball payout device 80. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to correctly calculate the accessory ratio in a normal type pachinko machine adopting a latch type solenoid as a tulip opening / closing means.

  In the present embodiment, the detection signals from the game ball detection sensors SE31 and SE32 at the left and right entrances 31 and 32 of the staying agent 30, the sensor SE21 at the center chucker winning entrance 21, and the chucker winning entrance at the top position are shown. The four types of winning signals from 36 are accumulated in the memory and can be left as data. These data can be used when it is necessary to analyze the winning route to the central chucker winning opening 21. Further, it can also be used as data for analyzing which of the two chucker winning openings 36, 23, which is the opening condition of the tulip-type winning device 15 at the bottom, has more winnings. From these analysis results, check whether the player is the right-handed subject, the left-handed subject, whether it is in the right-handed advantageous state contrary to the expectation of the hole side, etc. Can be considered.

  Next, a second embodiment will be described. The pachinko machine of the second embodiment is structurally similar to that of the first embodiment, but the chucker winning holes 21 to 23 and 36 and the three tulip-type winning devices 13 to 15 arranged in a single vertical line in the center. The difference is that the opening condition is not a fixed condition but is changed by lottery.

  When winning the central chucker winning slot 21, the top tulip winning device 13 is opened with a 95% probability, the middle tulip winning device 14 is opened with a 4% probability, and the probability is 1%. The sorting conditions are set so that the tulip-type winning device 15 at the bottom is opened. In addition, when winning at the chucker winning opening 22 at the left shoulder position, the tulip type winning device 14 in the middle is opened with a probability of 95%, and the top tulip type winning device 13 is opened with a probability of 4%. The distribution condition is set so that the tulip-type winning device 15 at the bottom is opened with probability. Furthermore, when winning at the top chucker winning slot 36, the bottom tulip winning device 15 is opened with a 95% probability, and the middle tulip winning device 14 is opened with a 4% probability. The distribution conditions are set so that the top tulip winning device 13 is opened with probability. Then, when winning at the chucker winning opening 23 at the right shoulder position, the bottom tulip winning device 15 is opened with a probability of 95%, and the middle tulip winning device 14 is opened with a probability of 4%. The distribution conditions are set so that the top tulip winning device 13 is opened with the probability of

  For this reason, as shown in FIG. 19, when the winning detection signal is a winning to the chucker winning openings 21 to 23, 36 (S401: YES), while outputting the closing winning signal (S402), the random number lottery is executed. (S403). Then, it is determined which of the three tulip-type winning devices 13 to 15 arranged in a vertical line to be opened according to the result of the random number lottery (S404), and the control for any of the solenoids SOL13 to 15 is performed according to this result. A release signal is output as a signal (S405), and the storage content of the solenoid control signal memory 71 for the solenoid that output the control signal is shifted in the past along the time series, and the process of rewriting the latest stored content to release is executed. (S406).

  In addition, when it is not winning to the chucker winning openings 21 to 23, 36 (S401: NO), a tulip winning calculation routine configured similarly to S21 to S84 of the first embodiment is executed (S410). When none of the tulip type winning devices 11 to 15 is a target of the winning signal in the routine (S411: YES), the closing winning signal is output from the winning signal output terminal 72 as in S141, and the process is ended (S420).

  Next, a third embodiment will be described. The mechanical structure of the third embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment. As a difference, the number of prize balls paid out of the tulip-type winning devices 11 to 15 is set as follows.

  Specifically, with respect to the tulip-type winning device 11 at the left-down position, the number of winning balls is 8 (the number of winning balls is set to a small plus), and the three tulip-type winning devices 13 to 15 arranged in the center in a vertical row. The number of prize balls is set to 15 (the prize ball number setting = large plus), and the number of prize balls is set to 10 (the prize ball number setting = medium plus) for the tulip-type winning device 12 at the right drop position. . In addition, for the winning openings 22, 23, 41, 51, the number of winning balls is set to 5 (the number of winning balls = normal). As described in the first embodiment, the number of prize balls to be paid out at the central chucker winning opening 21 and the top position chucker winning opening 36 is “0”.

  As a result, in the winning ball payout control routine, as shown in FIG. 20, it is determined whether or not the winning detection signal input this time is from the winning detection sensor SE41 of the leftmost normal winning opening 41 (S501). "", It is determined whether or not the winning detection signal input this time is from the winning detection sensor SE51 of the rightmost normal winning opening 41 (S502). If "NO", the winning detection signal input this time is the center. It is determined whether or not it is from the winning detection sensor SE21 of the chucker winning opening 21 (S503). If “NO”, the winning detection signal input this time is the winning detection sensor SE22 of the chucker winning opening 22 at the right shoulder position. (S504), if “NO”, whether or not the winning detection signal input this time is from the winning detection sensor SE23 of the chucker winning opening 23 at the right shoulder position. Determines (S505), if "NO", the input winning detection signal this time determines whether or not from the winning sensor SE36 for chucker winning hole 36 of the top position (S506). If any of S501, S502, S504, and S506 is “YES” in the determinations of S501 to S506, a command with five prize balls is selected (S507) and output to the prize ball payout device 80. (S600). On the other hand, if any of S503 and S505 is “YES”, the process returns to S501.

  If all the determinations in S501 to S506 are “NO”, it is determined whether or not the winning detection signal input this time is from the winning detection sensor SE11 of the tulip type winning device 11 at the left-down position. (S511) If "YES", a command with 8 prize balls is selected (S512) and output to the prize ball payout device 80 (S600).

  On the other hand, if the determination in S511 is “NO”, it is determined whether or not the winning detection signal input this time is from the winning detection sensor SE12 of the tulip winning device 12 at the right-down position (S521). ”, A command having 10 prize balls is selected (S522) and output to the prize ball payout device 80 (S600).

  When S521 is also “NO”, it is determined whether or not the winning detection signal input this time is from the winning detection sensor SE13 of the tulip-type winning device 13 at the uppermost center (S531). "", It is determined whether or not the winning detection signal input this time is from the winning detection sensor SE14 of the tulip type winning device 14 in the middle center (S532). If "NO", the winning detection input this time is detected. It is determined whether or not the signal is from the winning detection sensor SE15 of the tulip type winning device 15 at the bottom of the center (S533). If any of the determinations in S531 to S533 is “YES”, a command with 15 prize balls is selected (S534) and output to the prize ball payout device 80 (S600).

  Note that this routine is started when a winning is detected. Accordingly, the command of 5 balls, 8 balls, 10 balls, or 15 balls is always selected, and the selected command is output to the winning ball payout device 80, and the process is terminated.

  In the present embodiment, since the number of prize balls to be paid out is different in this way, the output signal from the prize signal output terminal 72 includes information on the number of prize balls to be paid out in addition to the prizes during the opening and the prizes during the closing. The signal added as is used. As described above, the number of winning balls for the tulip-type winning device 11 at the left-dropping position is 8, the number of winning balls is 15 for the three tulip-type winning devices 13 to 15 at the center, and the tulip-type winning at the right-falling position. Since the number of prize balls is set to 10 for the device 12 and the number of prize balls is set to 5 for the other winning holes 21 to 23, 36, 41, 51, one bit of them is used using a 4-bit signal. This indicates whether the winning signal is “open” or “closed”, and the remaining 3 bits are either “5”, “8”, “10”, or “15”. I am trying to show that. Therefore, on the side of the arithmetic unit B, when determining and counting whether the winning during the opening and the winning during the closing, it is +5 when it is a 5 payout signal, +8 when it is an 8 payout signal, and 10 payout signals If the number is the same as that of the first embodiment with +10 for the 15 payout signal and +15 for the 15 payout signal, it is possible to correctly measure the number of prize balls paid out by winning during the tulip opening. Further, since the exact number of prize balls to be paid out can be measured even when the winning prize is closed, the bonus rate can be calculated correctly.

  According to the ordinary machine type pachinko machine of each of the embodiments described above, the three tulip-type winning devices 13 to 15 arranged in a vertical line in the center of the game area are separated from each other in the horizontal direction of the game area. The game is opened when a game ball is awarded to any of the winning openings 21 to 23, 36. At this time, when a game ball wins in the central chucker winning opening 21 located above the tulip group arranged in a vertical row, the uppermost tulip type winning device 13 of the central tulip group is opened. Then, when a game ball wins the tulip-type winning device 13 in the open state, the tulip-type winning device 14 immediately below is opened. Hereinafter, the tulip-type winning devices 13 to 15 in the vertical row are opened every time a game ball wins the tulip-type winning devices 13 and 14 in the open state. The game can be performed in an advantageous state.

  When winning at other chucker winning openings 22, 23, 36, there are cases where the lowermost tulip-type winning device 15 is opened and cases where the middle tulip-type winning device 14 is opened. . When the tulip-type winning device 14 at the intermediate position is opened, the tulip-type winning device 15 below is opened by winning the tulip-type winning device 14, and an advantageous state is generated accordingly. Also, when opening from the middle position, it is an open state in the tulip group in the central part, so it is not necessary to change the way of hitting significantly.

  Therefore, the player is most likely to be caused by winning the center chucker winning opening 21, and the subsequent game can also efficiently get out by hitting the center. Therefore, it is not necessary to finely adjust left-handed and right-handed, so that not only skilled workers but also beginners can fully enjoy it.

  In addition, a retaining accessory 30 having a one-hole croon 34 is provided above the central chucker winning opening 21. Accordingly, when a game ball enters the staying accessory 30, it is swung by the croon 34, then falls from the drop hole 33 at the center of the bottom, and is guided by the guide portion 35, thereby being directly below the chucker winning opening 21. The player can watch the game with a sense of expectation. Then, since a sufficiently long time is spent from entering the staying accessory 30 to winning the winning hole 21 directly below, a plurality of game balls are placed on the staying accessory 30 in a relatively short time. Can be expected to pay out the maximum amount of prize balls associated with winning a prize in the vertical row of tulip-type winning openings 13 to 15 as follows.

  As a result of winning the prize at the central chucker winning opening 21, the uppermost tulip-type winning device 13 is first opened (FIG. 21 (A) → (B)). When one game ball wins the tulip-type winning device 13 at the top, the middle tulip-type winning device 14 is opened (FIG. 21 (C) → (D)). At this time, the uppermost tulip-type winning apparatus 13 is open until the second winning prize. Therefore, the state where both the uppermost and middle tulip winning devices 13 and 14 are opened occurs (FIG. 21D).

  In this state, when one game ball wins the tulip-type winning device 14 in the middle first, the bottom tulip-type winning device 15 is opened (FIG. 21 (E) → (F)). At this time, the uppermost tulip-type winning device 13 and the middle tulip-type winning device 14 are both open until the second winning. Therefore, the state where all the upper, middle, and lower tulip-type prize winning devices 13 to 15 in the vertical line are opened (FIG. 21F).

  In this state, when one game ball wins the tulip-type winning device 15 at the bottom first, only the winning device 15 is closed and the upper two tulip-type winning devices 13 and 14 are opened ( FIG. 21 (G) → (H)). Here, first, when one game ball wins the tulip-type winning device 14 in the middle, the winning device 14 is closed, and the lowermost tulip-type winning device 15 is opened again (FIG. 21 (I) → ( J)). Therefore, in this case, the top and bottom two tulip winning devices 13, 15 are opened (FIG. 21J).

  Even in this state, when one game ball wins the tulip-type winning device 15 at the bottom, the winning device 15 is closed and the uppermost tulip-type winning device 13 is opened (FIG. 22). (A) → FIG. 22B). Here, finally, when one game ball is won in the uppermost tulip-type winning device 13, the winning device 13 is closed, and only the middle tulip-type winning device 14 is opened (FIG. 22C). FIG. 22 (D)).

  In this state, when one game ball wins the tulip-type winning device 14 in the middle, the winning device 14 remains open and the bottom tulip-type winning device 15 is opened (FIG. 22 (E → FIG. 22 (F)). When one game ball wins the tulip-type winning device 15 at the bottom first, the winning device 15 is closed and only the middle tulip-type winning device 14 is opened (FIG. 22 (G) → (H)).

  In this state, when one game ball wins the tulip-type winning device 14 in the middle, the winning device 14 is closed and the bottom tulip-type winning device 15 is opened (FIG. 22 (I) → FIG. 22 (J)).

  Finally, when one game ball wins the tulip-type winning device 15 at the bottom, all the upper, middle, and lower tulip-type winning devices 13 to 15 return to the closed state (FIG. 22 (K)). (FIG. 22 (L)).

  Accordingly, in calculation, (15-1 (tulip winning portion)) × 10 = 140 prize balls are obtained at the maximum. While such an advantageous state can be expected, if the winning combination 30 is successively awarded to the central chucker winning opening 21, the player proceeds to the next state before the above-mentioned winning ball acquisition game is fully digested. On the other hand, in each embodiment, a one-hole type croon 34 is provided in the retaining accessory 30 so that a game ball that enters the accessory 30 does not immediately fall from the dropping hole 33. Yes. Therefore, even when a game ball enters the staying accessory 30 in a relatively short time, it is easy to secure time for digesting the advantageous game described above. The top and middle tulip-type winning devices 13, 14 are set not to be closed until a plurality of game balls are won, while the bottom tulip-type winning device 15 is set to be closed when one game ball wins. As a result, the bottom tulip winning device 15 can be easily closed quickly in the advantageous game described above. Therefore, the setting of the condition from opening to closing also gives the player a sense of expectation that it is easy to digest the most advantageous game state. Further, since it is recognized that it is advantageous for the player to close the player from the bottom first, it is possible to enjoy the game while feeling the excitement, pounding, and harassment of the whereabouts of the hit ball. In addition, a new enjoyment of adjusting the direction of the hit ball for closing from the bottom forward can be felt.

  Furthermore, as the winning route to the central chucker winning opening 21, there are four routes of the Kroon route from the left and right and the diving route from the left and right, increasing the winning opportunities, and these are also separated in the vertical direction, While making the player feel the fun of adjusting the direction of the hitting ball, it is possible to enhance the expectation of an advantageous game and entertain the game without getting bored. One of the points is that it is expected that the possibility of winning the central winning chucker winning opening 21 by a plurality of winning routes is high. In addition, as described above, when winning from the upper cruise route, the advantageous game that has already occurred can be digested first by the time of turning in the staying accessory 30, and the advantageous game one after another can be digested. It also has a sense of expectation for what happens. Furthermore, the dive route where the dwell time does not occur is close to the tulip, and it is expected that advantageous games will be generated one after another, while winning the central chucker winning award 21 in the middle of the advantageous games that have already occurred. I have a conflicting feeling that I want to avoid. Against this conflicting feeling, the most anticipated, that is, advantageous games occur one after another, and more and more, as each winning game gets a prize ball closer to the maximum number of winnings, You can feel the fun of this pachinko machine. For this reason, it is possible to experience the fun of adjusting the direction of the hit ball. As described above, the plurality of winning routes include the presence / absence of the residence time depending on which route the game ball jumps into, the ease of winning during the game due to the difference in distance from the tulip, and the like. And the pachinko machine of the present embodiment makes the player feel a great excitement in combination with the fact that the joint opening and closing pattern of the tulip-type winning devices 13 to 15 in a vertical row is set as described above. It has helped to make things.

  Moreover, in the pachinko machine of each embodiment, since the staying accessory 30 that generates the Klein route winning is installed at the upper center, the player is given a psychology that intends to concentrate on hitting the ball near the top position in the upper center. Work. As a result, the chances of winning at the top position chucker winning opening 36 also increase, and it is easy to produce a result with the least number of balls in the expected game. Therefore, the player tries to concentrate the game ball near the heaven position, but not to the heaven position chucker winning opening 36, but to the staying accessory 30 below or the dive route immediately below the staying accessory 30. Various hitting adjustments for guiding the game ball can be enjoyed.

  In addition, life nails 31 a to 31 c and 32 a for adjusting the entrance probability of the game balls to these entrances in the vicinity of the entrances 31 and 32 to the staying agent 30 and the entrance to the dive space 37. -C, 21a and b are provided, so that not only the player's expectation can be raised due to the large number of entrances where advantageous games are generated, but also the amount of balls can be optimized and the shooting performance can be improved Without hesitation, you can contribute to healthy games and sound hall management.

  In addition, a winning opening 22 is provided in the left area of the game area 3 for giving an opening opportunity to the winning apparatus 14 in the middle position of the vertical row of tulip-type winning apparatuses 13 to 15, and an opening opportunity of the lowermost tulip-type winning apparatus 15 is set. By arranging the winning opening 23 to be given in the right area of the game area 3, the left-handed is more advantageous than the right-handed, and matches the normal gaming style. In addition, when the right-handed advantage is set, it is difficult for the player to adjust the hitting ball, and for the hole, it is difficult to predict the starting ball and to make adjustment work for controlling the starting ball.

  In addition, among the tulip-type winning devices 13 to 15 arranged in a vertical row, the upper two tulip-type winning devices 13 and 14 that cooperate with the opening of the tulip-type winning devices 14 and 15 directly below are closed by winning two. As a result, the number of opportunities to open the lower tulips is increased, the expectation for the maximum number of balls is increased, and the actual number of balls can be marked with good luck and bad luck. Even so, the effect that the game does not become monotonous is also exhibited.

  The sharpness with respect to the number of balls to be played is large in cooperation with a configuration in which three or more tulip-type winning devices 13 to 15 are arranged in a vertical line and the lower one is opened in cooperation with the upper tulip-type winning device. Yes. Therefore, the pachinko machine of the embodiment has a large maximum number of balls, but the actual number of balls is not always as expected, and the player can experience the best part of adjusting the hit ball. On the other hand, three tulip groups 13 to 15 that are released in cooperation, a central chucker winning port 21 that causes the most advantageous game, a staying agent 30 that becomes a winning route to the central chucker winning port 21, and a game As a result, the top-most chucker winning holes 36 that are the most disappointing are arranged in a vertical line in the center of the game area, and as a result, it is an element that can be enjoyed without adjusting the hitting ball, which is difficult for beginners.

  Furthermore, since the left and right dropping positions are provided with tulip-type winning devices 11 and 12 that can win even in a closed state, spilled balls are picked up by these tulip-type winning devices 11 and 12 and the game Since the sustainability can be increased, the game can be enjoyed for a long time even if the situation is not advantageous. In particular, since the tulip-type winning devices 11 and 12 at the dropping position are closed with two winning prizes during opening, this effect is further increased.

  In addition, each of the tulip type winning devices 11 to 15 includes latch type solenoids SOL11 to SOL15 as blade opening / closing means, and winning detection sensors SE11 to SE15 for detecting a winning of a game ball. Therefore, it is possible to accurately realize a complicated cooperative relationship, and to avoid problems such as malfunction caused by heat generation.

  In particular, in the second embodiment, an open target to which one of the tulip-type winning devices 13 to 15 arranged in a vertical line is to be released by random number lottery at the time of winning the chucker winning ports 21 to 23, 36. It has a configuration as a distribution means, and for each winning opening, the winning devices 13 to 15 that have the maximum distribution probability of which one of the tulip-type winning devices 13 to 15 arranged in a vertical line to be opened are made different. In this case, control that is difficult with the mechanical type can be correctly executed by the latch type solenoid.

  In the second embodiment, by adopting the above configuration, it is possible to make a difference in what kind of game is generated for each of the chucker winning holes 21 to 23, 36, and to make the generated game random. I am able to raise interest. Further, the improvement of the game performance can be freely set by providing the latch type solenoids SOL13 to 15 and the winning detection sensors SE13 to 15 in the tulip type winning devices 13 to 15, respectively.

  Furthermore, in the first embodiment, for the tulip type winning device 15 at the center bottom, two chucker winning openings 36, 23 at the top position and the right shoulder position are provided as winning openings that give an opportunity to open the tulip. is set up. Since the winning holes are located at positions separated from each other, when the game balls fluctuate, it is possible to make the player feel unexpected luck.

  And according to the trial test system adopted in the embodiment, the blade opening / closing operation in each tulip type winning device 11-15 is made into an open signal and a close signal output from the main control board 70 to the latch type solenoids SOL11-15. In addition to being able to realize a stable operation without causing a heat generation trouble of the solenoid even if the tulip opening time is prolonged, an opening / closing signal is output for each tulip type winning device 11-15. Is stored and updated, and based on the stored contents, it is possible to correctly determine the winning during opening and the winning during closing.

  Further, the test firing test system according to the third embodiment employs a configuration that outputs the number of winning balls together with a winning signal, and the number of winning balls varies depending on the position of the winning opening, thereby improving the game performance. The object ratio can be measured correctly.

  As a result, in each embodiment, the ordinary machine type pachinko machine can enhance the interest without making it difficult to predict the starting ball, and can be sufficiently enjoyed by both skilled and beginners.
