Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve such problems that a measuring error occurs and a result is significantly different from the number of variations of a target pattern display because a measuring part of a plate gauge is too smooth, and the pressure, variation and volume or the like of a dynamic resistance generated when moving the plate gauge up and down are extremely small, as the plate gauge for measuring a pin interval range of a Pachinko game machine is inserted between game pins and moved up and down between the game pins for measuring, so that it is hard to maintain profit balance between a Pachinko parlor and game customers, and feelings of unfairness and dissatisfaction are imparted to the game customers because the number of variations in respective game machines are unequal. <P>SOLUTION: Recessed and projection parts are provided on a measuring part so as to easily obtain senses of the pressure, variation, volume or the like of the dynamic resistance at the time of measuring using with a plate gauge, and a slight vibration is generated when moving the plate gauge up and down between game pins. When the vibration, and the pressure, variation and volume of the dynamic resistance decrease, a gauge range is obtained, and accurate measuring can be achieved compared with a conventional plate gauge. Thus, the profit balance between the Pachinko parlor and the game customers can be easily maintained, and it is made possible to relieve the feelings of unfairness and dissatisfaction that the game customers have with the unequal number of variations in respective game machines. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT

Description

  The present invention relates to a plate gauge for measuring a gap width between a game nail and a game nail implanted on a game board surface of a pachinko gaming machine.

  Pachinko parlors are calculated based on the information of each pachinko machine that is compiled at the time of closing, and the balance between the profits of the players and the store is calculated between the closing and opening of the pachinko parlors. Adjust the interval. There are a digital measuring instrument, a ball gauge, a plate gauge, and the like as tools used for measuring the distance. Digital measuring instruments and ball gauges are mainly used by putting a measuring part between two game nails and contacting the game board surface, while plate gauges are used for the heads of two game nails protruding from the game board surface. It moves by moving it up and down while touching the back surface and measures the pressure, change, and amount of subtle operating resistance generated at that time.

Plate gauges as measuring tools between nails of game nails implanted on the game board surface of pachinko machines are widely distributed and used, but patent documents cannot be found. There is Patent Document 1 describing a plate gauge, and Non-Patent Document 1 is a catalog of a tool sales company.

  One of the nail adjustments performed by calculating the balance between the profits of the player and the store is to adjust the number of game balls to be awarded to the starting gate. The number of winnings is adjusted with reference to the number obtained to 1 / 10th of the average number of winnings per minute.

  Currently, digital measuring instruments have been developed, and the gap between game nails can be measured up to 1 / 100th place, but since digital measuring instruments are expensive, many of the nail adjusters still have simple plate gauges and ball gauges. Is measured regularly.

  The dimensional width of the measurement part of the board gauge is divided into dozens of stages step by step in the range of up to about 17 mm based on the same 11 mm as the ball diameter of the game ball, and the measurement part that selects the board gauge that matches the target winning number Adjust the game nail by enlarging or reducing it so that it fits the dimensions.

  There are several measurement methods using a board gauge, but the board gauge measurement part is inserted between the game nails to be finally measured, and the board gauge measurement part is moved up and down between the game nails. Feel the pressure, change, amount, etc. of the subtle operating resistance and check if the nail width matches the dimensional width of the plate gauge. However, the pressure, change, amount, etc. of the operating resistance are extremely small, and errors such as the physical condition of the nail adjuster that is measured cause an error, resulting in the number of fluctuations in the symbol display device differing significantly from the target number of fluctuations. It was.

  Due to the above-mentioned errors, it is difficult for the pachinko store and the player to harmonize the profits, or the number of fluctuations per minute of the pattern change device of the gaming machine installed in the pachinko store is unbalanced for each player. It gave unfairness and dissatisfaction.

  The measurement error that occurs during measurement using a plate gauge is because the pressure, change, amount, etc. of the operating resistance is very small. The small cause is that the measurement surface of the plate gauge is made smoothly. This is because the vertical movement is smooth and only a small resistance sensation can be obtained.

  In order to make it easier to feel the pressure, change, amount, etc. of the operating resistance during measurement, a part of the measurement part was cut out and an uneven part was provided. The convex part is the dimension width of the plate gauge. By moving an uneven plate gauge up and down between game nails, light vibration was generated from the uneven portions in contact with the nail. The dimension width is when the vibration and the pressure change of the operating resistance decrease during the nail adjustment.

  Since the plate gauge is provided with projections and depressions, a larger operating resistance than that of the conventional smooth plate gauge can be obtained. Therefore, the plate gauge can be measured more accurately than the conventional plate gauge. This makes it possible to correct the imbalance in the number of fluctuations of each gaming machine installed in the store, making it easier to harmonize the profits of the store and the player, and the feeling of unfairness with respect to the imbalance in the number of fluctuations the player had, Dissatisfaction can be resolved.

  The best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. The metal used in the present invention is preferably a metal that does not easily rust and is difficult to wear, and stainless steel is particularly preferable.
