FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing the ball rolling portion 25 of the present embodiment.
FIG. 4 is a front view for explaining the configuration of the ball rolling portion 25 of the present embodiment (viewed from the direction of the arrow Y2 shown in FIG. 2).
As shown in FIG. 2, the station ST1 is arranged symmetrically with the station ST2. The station ST1 includes a pusher base 11, a medal winning opening 12, a monitor 13 (display unit), a ball moving device 20, ball winning opening 31, 32, 33, a medal discharge opening 34, and the like.

The pusher base 11 is a device for pushing out the internal medal 3 in the play field 2 in the direction of the medal winning opening 12. The pusher base 11 includes a reciprocating table 11A and a fixed table 11B.
The reciprocating table 11A is configured to reciprocate in the depth direction (arrow Y direction) on the fixed table 11B by a pusher base drive motor 71 (described later).
The fixed table 11B is fixed in the play field 2.
Usually, a plurality of medals 3 are placed in advance on the reciprocating table 11A and the fixed table 11B. When the medal 3 inserted from the medal insertion device 7 (see FIG. 1) falls on the reciprocating table 11A or the fixed table 11B, these medals 3 are moved forward in the depth direction (arrow Y1 direction) by the reciprocating movement of the reciprocating table 11A. It is gradually pushed out and falls from the front side in the depth direction of the fixed table 11B.

The medal winning opening 12 is arranged on the front side in the depth direction of the fixed table 11B. When the medal 3 dropped from the fixed table 11B wins the medal winning slot 12, the control unit 60 performs a winning process as will be described later.
The monitor 13 is a display device such as an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display), and displays a lottery screen using a three-digit number slot, an explanation screen for play contents, and the like when a medal is won.

The ball ascending pipe 21 is a hollow pipe disposed in the play field 2 so as to stand upright in the vertical direction. The ball riser 21 raises the ball B inside and throws the raised ball B into the ball rolling portion 25. The ball riser 21 is formed of a transparent material such as acrylic so that the rising ball B can be visually recognized. The ball ascending pipe 21 is provided with a ball insertion port 22 through which the ball rises into the ball rolling portion 25.
The helical lift device 23 is a spiral member disposed inside the ball lift pipe 21. The helical lift device 23 is driven to rotate by a lift device drive motor 73 (described later), so that the ball B can be lifted in the vertical direction in the ball lift tube 21.

The ball rolling unit 25 is a device that moves the ball B thrown from the ball throwing port 22 while rolling it in a moving direction A that is an obliquely downward direction.
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the ball rolling portion 25 includes a base portion 26, five moving path forming plates 27 (27-1 to 27-5; partial moving path forming portions), and each moving path forming plate 27. Are provided with a ball progression sensor 28 (28-1 to 28-5) and a spring 29 (29-1 to 29-5; urging portion) provided on the spring, and a spring support plate 30.

The base portion 26 is a housing for the ball rolling portion 25.
The movement path forming plate 27 is a plate-like member that partially forms a movement path 25a for moving the ball B in the movement direction by one surface thereof. In addition, the direction of the partial moving path 27a (27a-1 to 27a-5) in which the moving path forming plate 27 moves the ball B is set as the partial moving direction 27b (27b-1 to 27b-5) in FIGS. Illustrated in FIG. The movement path forming plate 27 is supported by the base portion 26 so as to be capable of rotating between an upright state (first state) and a fallen state (second state). The movement path forming plate 27 rotates about a horizontal axis 27Y (27Y-1 to 27Y-5) orthogonal to the movement direction, and rotates from the upright state to the collapsed state.

In the upright state, the moving path forming plate 27 has the partial moving path 27a arranged parallel to the vertical plane, the partial moving direction 27b and the moving direction A intersect, and the ball B moving in the moving direction A collides. It becomes possible.
On the other hand, in the fallen state, the movement path forming plate 27 is disposed at a position inclined until the partial movement path 27a on which the ball B collides is parallel to the movement direction A, and the partial movement direction 27b and the movement direction A are parallel to each other. Thus, the ball B can roll down the partial movement path 27a.

As shown in FIG. 3, the movement path forming plates 27 are arranged in a line along the movement direction A. When the ball B collides with the partial movement path 27 a in the upright state, the movement path forming plate 27 falls due to the momentum of the ball B. Rotate and move to a closed state. The movement path forming plate 27 can guide the ball B to the next arranged movement path forming plate 27 in a state in which the movement path forming plate 27 is rotationally moved to the collapsed state.
For example, as shown in FIG. 3A, when the movement path forming plate 27-1 is in an upright state and the ball B collides with the partial movement path 27a-1, FIG. 3B and FIG. As shown in (), it is rotated about the shaft 27Y-1 to the collapsed state. Then, as shown in FIG. 3C, the moving path forming plate 27-1 guides the ball B to the moving path forming plate 27-2 disposed next in a state where the moving path forming plate 27-1 is rotationally moved to the collapsed state.

  As described above, the ball moving device 20 causes the ball B to collide with the moving path forming plate 27 one after another, and the moving path forming plate 27 sequentially rotates and falls down in a new and interesting manner. Can move. In addition, since the ball B moves while rotating the movement path forming plate 27 while the ball B rotates, the ball B can be moved in a manner that is easily visible.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the ball progress sensor 28 (28-1 to 28-5) is a limit sensor or the like for detecting that each moving path forming plate 27 has fallen (in FIG. 4, The ball progress sensors 28-4 and 28-5 are not shown). Each ball progress sensor 28-1 to 28-5 is installed so as to be turned on when each moving path forming plate 27-1 to 27-5 is tilted, and outputs a detection signal to the controller 60. .

The spring 29 is a torsion coil spring that biases the moving path forming plate 27. The guide rod 29 a inserted through the spring 29 is fixed to the base portion 26. The spring 29 is configured such that the end 29c of one arm 29b is supported by the spring support plate 30 and the other arm 29d urges the moving path forming plate 27 from the fallen state to the upright state. .
Thus, since the moving path forming plate 27 is biased, the ball rolling portion 25 can automatically return the moving path forming plate 27 from the fallen state to the upright state after the ball B has passed. .

The spring support plate 30 is a plate-like member for supporting the end portion 29 c of the arm 29 b of the spring 29. The spring support plate 30 is driven in the vertical direction by a biasing force changing actuator 72 described later.
For this reason, the ball moving device 20 changes the urging force of the spring 29 to change the ease with which the moving path forming plate 27 falls, and the degree of decrease in moving speed when the ball B collides with the moving path forming plate 27 is changed. Can be adjusted. Thereby, as will be described later, the ball moving device 20 can change to which position the ball B can reach in the ball moving device 20 and the speed of the ball when the ball moves out of the ball moving device 20.

As shown in FIG. 2, the ball winning ports 31, 32, 33 are winning ports for winning the ball B jumping out from the ball rolling portion 25.
The ball winning opening 31 has a narrow entrance, and is installed at a high position away from the exit of the ball rolling portion 25, and therefore has the lowest winning probability. When the ball B wins the ball winning slot 31, a large number (for example, about 100) of medals 3 are released.
The ball winning opening 32 is installed in a tubular shape with the upper part opened along the moving direction of the ball B, that is, the releasing direction, and the winning probability next to the ball winning opening 31 is the lowest. When the ball B wins the ball winning opening 32, the medal 3 is released about half (for example, about 50) of the amount released from the ball winning opening 31.
The ball winning opening 33 is arranged in a container shape having an upper opening below the ball winning openings 31 and 32 so that a ball B that could not win the ball winning openings 31 and 32 can be won. When the ball B wins the ball winning opening 33, a small amount (for example, about 10) of medals 3 is released.

Next, a block diagram of the game machine 1 will be described.
FIG. 5 is a block diagram of the game machine 1 of the present embodiment.
The game machine 1 includes a medal winning sensor 41, ball winning sensors 42-1 to 42-3, a storage unit 50, a control unit 60, a pusher base driving motor 71, an urging force changing actuator 72, and a lifting device driving. A motor 73 and the like.

The medal winning sensor 41 is an optical sensor or the like that detects the medal 3 won in the medal winning slot 12. When the medal winning sensor 41 detects the medal 3 won in the medal winning slot 12, the medal winning sensor 41 outputs a detection signal to the control unit 60.
The ball winning sensors 42-1 to 42-3 are optical sensors or the like for detecting the balls B that have won the ball winning ports 31 to 33, respectively. When the ball winning sensors 42-1 to 42-3 detect the ball B that has won the ball winning ports 31 to 33, the ball winning sensors 42-1 to 42-3 output a detection signal to the control unit 60.
The storage unit 50 is a storage device such as a hard disk or a semiconductor memory element for storing a game program 51 and information necessary for the operation of the game machine 1.

  The control unit 60 is a control unit for controlling the game machine 1 in an integrated manner, and includes, for example, a CPU (Central Processing Unit). The control unit 60 includes a game progress control unit 61, a pusher table control unit 62, a slot lottery control unit 63, an urging force control unit 64 (an urging force changing unit), and an approach speed control unit 65 (an approach speed changing unit). And a bus (not shown) for transmitting information between these controllers as necessary. The control unit 60 reads out and executes various programs stored in the storage unit 50 as appropriate, thereby realizing various functions according to the present invention in cooperation with the hardware described above.

The game progress control unit 61 is a control unit for comprehensively controlling the progress of the game. For example, when the ball B wins, the game progress control unit 61 releases the medal 3 to the pusher base 11.
The pusher base control unit 62 controls the pusher base drive motor 71 to reciprocate the reciprocating table 11A of the pusher base 11.
The slot lottery control unit 63 is a control unit that displays a lottery screen based on slots on the monitor 13 in accordance with the winning of the medal 3.
The urging force control unit 64 is a control unit that controls the urging force change actuator 72 to drive the spring support plate 30 in the vertical direction and change the urging force of the spring 29.
The approach speed control unit 65 is a control unit that controls the ascent device drive motor 73 to rotationally drive the spiral ascent device 23 to raise the ball B in the vertical direction within the ball ascending tube 21. The approach speed control unit 65 changes the rotational speed of the helical lift device 23 according to the lottery result of the slot lottery control unit 63, and changes the approach speed at which the ball B enters the moving path 25a.

The pusher base drive motor 71 is a DC motor or the like that reciprocates on the reciprocating table 11A of the pusher base 11.
The biasing force changing actuator 72 is an actuator such as a solenoid that drives the spring support plate 30 in the vertical direction.
The ascending device drive motor 73 is a DC motor or the like that rotationally drives the spiral ascending device 23.

Next, the operation of the game machine 1 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 2, the medal 3 is inserted into the pusher base 11 from the medal insertion device 7 (see FIG. 1) by the player, and the medal 3 placed on the fixed table 11B is pushed out and dropped, and the medal winning opening 12 When winning a prize, the medal winning sensor 41 outputs a signal to the control unit 60. The slot lottery control unit 63 rotates and displays the three-digit slot displayed on the monitor 13. As a result of the lottery by the slot lottery control unit 63, the game progress control unit 61 determines that it is a big hit when the odd numbers are aligned (for example, “777”), and when the even numbers are aligned (for example, “ 222 "), it is determined that the game is a small hit, and when other numbers are aligned, it is determined that the game has been lost. The game progress control unit 61 performs a ball throwing process for a big hit and a small hit, and does not perform a ball throwing process for a loss.

As will be described below, the urging force control unit 64 changes the urging force of the spring 29 and the entry speed control unit 65 changes the throwing speed of the ball B in the case of big hit and small hit.
In the case of a big hit, the urging force control unit 64 controls the urging force changing actuator 72 so that the spring support plate 30 is at the lowest side in the vertical direction (see FIG. 3). In this case, the urging force of the spring 29 is the smallest, and the moving path forming plate 27 is set to easily fall down.
Further, the approach speed control unit 65 drives the spiral type lifting device 23 at a high speed. In this case, the speed at which the ball B enters the moving path 25a is set to be high speed.
By such control by the control unit 60, when the ball B collides with the moving path forming plate 27, the moving path forming plate 27 is set so as to easily rotate and move from the upright state to the collapsed state.

In the case of a small hit, the urging force control unit 64 controls the urging force changing actuator 72 so that the spring support plate 30 is at the uppermost position in the vertical direction. In this case, the urging force of the spring 29 is the largest, and is set to be less likely to fall than when the moving path forming plate 27 is a big hit.
Further, the approach speed control unit 65 drives the helical lift device 23 at a low speed. In this case, the speed at which the ball B enters the moving path 25a is set to be lower than that in the case of the big hit.
By such control by the control unit 60, when the ball B collides with the moving path forming plate 27, the moving path forming plate 27 is less likely to rotate and move from an upright state to a collapsed state than a big hit. Is set as follows.

When the ball B is thrown into the moving path 25a from the ball slot 22, the ball B rolls in the moving direction A while colliding with the moving path forming plate 27 and falling.
At this time, in the case of the jackpot setting, since the moving path forming plate 27 is set so as to easily fall down, the probability that the ball B can reach the moving path forming plate 27-5 arranged last is increased, The speed of jumping out from the moving path 25a is also increased.
On the other hand, in the case of the small hit setting, since the moving path forming plate 27 is set to be less likely to fall than in the case of the big hit setting, the probability that the ball B can only reach the middle of the moving path 25a is increased. In addition, even if the moving path forming plate 27 arranged last can be reached, the probability that the speed of jumping out from the moving path 25a is lower than that in the case of the jackpot setting is increased.
The higher the speed at which the ball B jumps out, the longer the flying distance of the ball B, and the higher the probability of winning in the ball winning opening 31.

The movement path forming plate 27 of the movement path forming plates 27-1 to 27-5 arranged in the moving path 25a can be reached by the output of the ball progression sensors 28-1 to 28-5. Based on the signal, the game progress control unit 61 determines.
The game progress control unit 61 drives a medal storage unit (not shown) each time one moving path forming plate 27 falls, and releases five medals 3 from the medal discharge port 34 to the pusher base 11. Since the ball B moves while rotating the moving path forming plate 27, the ball B is easy to visually recognize. For the player, the more the moving path forming plate 27 has fallen, the more the medal 3 is released, that is, as the ball B progresses. The aspect of the game changes and the aspect is obvious.

As described above, in the ball moving device 20, the approach speed of the ball B is changed by the approach speed control unit 65, and the biasing force by which the spring 29 biases the moving path forming plate 27 is changed by the biasing force control unit 64. The Thereby, the ball moving device 20 can change the traveling speed and the arrival position of the ball B in the moving path 25a.
When the ball B reaches the moving path forming plates 27-1 to 27-5 on the way in the moving path 25a and stops, the ball B is played by the collecting device (not shown). 1 is collected inside.

  As shown in FIG. 2, when the ball B that has jumped out from the moving path 25a wins, the ball winning sensors 42-1 to 42-3 output a detection signal to the control unit 60 from the control unit 60, and the game progress control is performed. The unit 61 performs the medal 3 discharge process. The game progress control unit 61 drives a medal storage unit (not shown) to release the medal 3 from the medal discharge port to the pusher base 11.

  As described above, the game machine 1 according to the present embodiment plays according to the position where the ball B can reach within the moving path 25a of the ball moving device 20 and the speed at which the ball B jumps out of the ball moving device 20. By changing the content, it is possible to easily inform the player of the change in the play content.
