That is, when the rear unit base 52 is attached to the plate member 42, the first rear light emitting unit 102 has the front surfaces of the first rear light transmissive member 108 and the first rear partition wall portion 110 contact the rear surface of the plate member 42. They are arranged in contact or close to each other (see FIG. 8 or FIG. 9). The first rear translucent member 108 is formed in a tray shape that opens to the rear side, and is attached to the front surface of the back unit base 52 so as to surround the corresponding first rear light-emitting substrate 104. Further, the first rear translucent member 108 is formed so that the portion facing the front side between the first rear partition walls 110, 110 installed on both sides becomes wider as it goes from the bottom to the top (FIG. 11). Or see FIG. The first rear light-emitting portion 102 not only emits light from the front surface of the first rear light-transmissive member 108 but also the first rear light-transmissive member facing the display portion 41 from between the lower ends of the first rear partition portions 110 and 110. The light can also be irradiated from the lower end surface of 108.

  The first rear partition 110 is made of a light reflecting process such as plating or a material that reflects light, and does not transmit light. The first rear partition wall portion 110 is basically configured by a piece portion extending along the side surface of the first rear light transmissive member 108, and the front plate of this piece portion borders the side edge of the first rear light transmissive member 108. And a part of the decoration around the first rear light emitting unit 102. Further, the first rear partition wall portion 110 is configured to block between the first rear light-emitting substrate 104 and the front plate of the first rear light-transmissive member 108 that is spaced from the front side of the first rear light-emitting substrate 104. The That is, in the first rear light emitting unit 102, the side of the line LED 106 is surrounded by the first rear partition wall 110. The first rear partition wall portion 110 is formed such that either or both of the surface facing the line LED 106 and the surface opposite to this surface (example) reflect light.

  The first rear partition wall portion 110 of the first rear light emitting unit 102 located on the right side has a L-shaped section extending along the front and side surfaces of the first rear translucent member 108 between the upper end and the lower end. It is configured as one connected member. The first rear partition wall 110 on the right side is configured to cover the entire left side of the first rear light transmissive member 108, and to cover the middle portion from the upper right side of the first rear light transmissive member 108. . On the other hand, the first rear light emitting unit 102 located on the left side is provided with a pair of first rear partition walls 110 and 110 with the first rear translucent member 108 interposed therebetween. The first rear light emitting unit 102 divides the installation portion of the line LED 106 and other regions by sandwiching both sides of the first rear translucent member 108 by the pair of first rear partition portions 110 and 110.

  As described above, the first rear light emitting unit 102 can prevent the light from the line LED 106 from leaking to the side by the first rear partition wall portion 110 extending along the alignment direction of the line LEDs 106, and the first rear light emission. During the light emission effect by the unit 102, it is possible to avoid the side region of the first rear light emitting unit 102 from shining. In other words, the first rear light emitting unit 102 can brighten only the exposed surface of the first rear light transmissive member 108 constituting the light emission line, and can further enhance the light emission effect. In addition, the first rear light emitting unit 102 receives light emitted from another light emitting device such as the side light emitting device 80 installed adjacent to the first rear light emitting unit 102 and enters the first rear light transmitting member 108. This can be prevented by the first rear partition 110. Therefore, the game board 40 can clearly separate the light emission effect between the first post-light-emitting unit 102 and the other light-emitting devices, so that the light emission effect performed in each part is emphasized and the effect is improved. be able to.

  The first rear light emitting unit 102 located on the right side includes another light transmissive member 112 (hereinafter referred to as a light transmissive cover) on the front side of the first rear light transmissive member 108. In the game board 40, when the back unit base 52 and the plate member 42 are assembled, the upper right side portion of the frame-shaped decorative body 70 fitted into the display through-hole 42a of the plate member 42 is the first rear translucent light on the right side. It is comprised so that it may overlap with the lower part of the member 108 (refer FIG. 4 or FIG. 5). In the frame-shaped decorative body 70, a light emitting opening 70b is opened at a portion overlapping the front side of the lower portion of the first rear translucent member 108 with the transparent plate member 42 interposed therebetween (see FIG. 10, FIG. 19, or FIG. 22). ), The translucent cover 112 is disposed on the frame-shaped decorative body 70 so as to close the light emitting opening 70b. The translucent cover 112 protrudes forward from the front surface of the plate member 42 in the frame-like decorative body 70 so as to surround the top and side portions of the display unit 41, and the translucent cover 112 is formed on the bowl-shaped unit 73 that partitions the display unit 41 and the game area 40a. It is attached so as to constitute the front surface, and is separated from the front surface of the plate member 42.

  The light-transmitting cover 112 is subjected to a light diffusion process, and the light emitted from the line LED 106 located on the rear side is diffused so that the entire light-transmitting cover 112 is illuminated. Further, the translucent cover 112 is formed so as to extend obliquely in accordance with the first rear translucent member 108 on the left side extending obliquely so as to incline downward from right to left (see FIG. 18 or FIG. 21). That is, the translucent cover 112 is connected to the upper part of the first rear translucent member 108 in the first rear light emitting unit 102 facing the game area 40a via the transparent plate member 42 on the upper side of the frame-shaped decorative body 70. A line is formed (see FIG. 4). Further, the translucent cover 112 is curved to the rear as it goes downward (from the display unit 41 side) from the upper edge of the collar-shaped portion 73 of the frame-shaped decorative body 70 that rises substantially perpendicular to the front surface of the plate member 42. (See FIG. 8). The translucent cover 112 also constitutes a lower end surface facing the display unit 41 in the bowl-shaped portion 73 of the frame-shaped decorative body 70, and the light irradiated from the first rear light emitting unit 102 through the translucent cover 112. Not only the front side but also the display unit 41 side can be irradiated.

  The frame-shaped decorative body 70 is configured such that the entire exposed surface of the bowl-shaped portion 73 is subjected to a reflection process such as plating to reflect light, and the display opening 70 b is defined on the rear side of the translucent cover 112. The inner wall portion of the frame-shaped decorative body 70 extending along both sides of the translucent cover 112 is configured to reflect light. That is, the first rear light emitting unit 102 on the right side can make the translucent cover 112 bright by reflecting the light emitted from the line LED 106 by the inner wall portion of the frame-shaped decorative body 70.

  Thus, by providing the transparent cover 112 on the frame-shaped decorative body 70 according to the first rear light emitting unit 102, a frame shape is formed between the right first rear light emitting unit 102 and the screen display on the display unit 41. Without being divided by the decorative body 70, it is possible to form a light-emitting line in which the symbol display on the display unit 41 is continued from the game area 40a. That is, since the sense of unity between the light emission effect by the first post-light emitting unit 102 and the screen display on the display unit 41 can be improved, the effect of the light emission effect unit 100 can be more emphasized. Further, since the translucent cover 112 is disposed on the hook-like portion 73 protruding forward from the front surface of the plate member 42, a space between the plate member 42 and the glass plate 14 a covering the front side of the plate member 42. The three-dimensional shape can be obtained. The first rear light emitting unit 102 on the right side has a light emission line that is not planar, and the light transmission line can have a three-dimensional effect due to the curved shape of the translucent cover 112 in the front-rear direction, which makes the light emission line appear larger. it can.

  In the game board 40, since the symbol display device 13 is attached to the rear side of the back unit 50, the display surface of the symbol display device 13 that performs screen display on the display unit 41 is behind (back side) from the game area 40a. Is located. The first rear light emitting unit 102 on the right side is formed so that the translucent cover 112 is biased backward as it goes from the top toward the display unit 41, so that the display surface of the symbol display device 13 and the first rear light emitting unit 102 are arranged. Can be reduced, and a sense of unity between the screen display constituting the light emission line on the display unit 41 and the light emission line by the first rear light emission unit 102 can be increased. Moreover, the three-dimensional shape of the translucent cover 112 can give an impression that the light emission line formed by the first rear light emitting unit 102 converges toward the display unit 41 located at the center of the game area 40a. The screen display on the display unit 41 having a high height can be suitably decorated with light emission.

(Second light emitting part)
In the light-emitting effect unit 100 of the embodiment, the second light-emitting unit disposed below the display unit 41 faces the second rear light-emitting unit 120 provided on the rear side of the plate member 42 and the front side of the plate member 42. 2 is configured in combination with the front light emitting unit 140. The light-emitting effect unit 100 includes two sets of second light-emitting units 120 and 140 that are separated from each other in the left-right direction corresponding to the two sets of light-emitting units (see FIG. 4). Each of the second light emitting units is installed obliquely so that the second rear light emitting unit 120 is biased outward as it goes downward from the lower edge of the display unit 41, and the second front light emitting unit 140 is a corresponding second rear light emitting unit. It is installed so as to be biased outward as it goes downward from the lower end of 120. That is, on the game board 40, a light emitting line extending in a “C” shape is formed on the lower side of the display unit 41 by the two sets of second light emitting units 120, 120, 140, and 140. In the light emitting effect unit 100, the first light emitting unit 102 on the right side and the second light emitting units 120 and 140 on the left side form one light emitting unit set, and the first light emitting unit 102 on the left side and the second light emitting unit on the right side. 120 and 140 form the other light emitting unit group. In the light emitting effect unit 100 of the embodiment, since the two sets of the second light emitting units 120, 120, 140, and 140 have a bilaterally symmetric configuration, the left side second light emitting units 120 and 140 that constitute one light emitting unit set are arranged. An example will be described below.

That is, the lower light emitting device 200 includes one upper second rear light emitting substrate 124A corresponding to substantially the entire upper region and two lower second rear light emitting substrates 124B corresponding to the left and right side portions of the lower region. , 124B.

  The second rear light emitting unit 120 is provided with an upper second rear light emitting substrate 124A and lower second rear light emitting substrates 124B and 124B arranged below the upper second rear light emitting substrate 124A with a step in the front-rear direction. (See FIG. 8 or FIG. 9). In the second rear light emitting unit 120, lower second rear light emitting substrates 124B and 124B are installed on the front side compared to the upper second rear light emitting substrate 124A located on the display unit 41 side. The line LED 126 is mainly responsible for the light emission effect on the upper part of the stage 74, and the line LED 126 of the lower second rear light-emitting substrate 124B is mainly responsible for the light emission effect on the lower part of the stage 74.

  The second rear translucent member 128 of the second rear light emitting unit 120 includes rear side pieces 128b and 128b extending toward the rear side on both sides of the longitudinal side of the front plate 128a constituting the front surface of the lower light emitting device 200. It is a transparent box-like member that opens to the side (see FIG. 47 or FIG. 48), and its long side extends along the line-up direction of the line LEDs 126 (see FIG. 17). The second rear translucent member 128 is configured to integrally cover the line LEDs 126 of the upper second rear light emitting substrate 124A and the lower second rear light emitting substrate 124B, and the rear ends of the side pieces 128b and 128b are vertically 2 It has a step shape corresponding to the step of the light emitting substrates 124A and 124B. In addition, the second rear translucent member 128 has an upper end protrusion piece 128c that is formed to protrude rearward from the rear end of the side piece 128b at the upper end portion, and the second rear light emitting substrates 124A and 124B have rear end pieces. When the end is abutted and attached to the lower light emitting device 200, the upper end protrusion 128 c constitutes an upper end surface facing the display unit 41 of the lower light emitting device 200.

  The second rear translucent member 128 is subjected to a light diffusion process on the front plate that covers the front side of the line LED 126, and diffuses the light emitted from the line LED 126 located on the rear side so that the entire front plate is The light is produced as if it were shining. In addition, since the upper end surface of the second rear light emitting unit 120 is configured by the upper end protrusion 128c of the second rear translucent member 128, the light from the line LED 126 is not only transmitted to the front side but also to the display unit 41 side. It can be irradiated.

  The second rear translucent member 128 is formed such that the front plate 128a is lowered rearward toward the display unit 41 side (see FIG. 8 or FIG. 9). Specifically, the second rear translucent member 128 is formed in a step shape such that the front plate 128a is positioned on the front side with respect to the upper portion on the display unit 41 side, and the front plate 128a is formed on the upper portion. As it goes from the bottom to the lower part, it curves gently forward. A curved portion of the front plate 128 a of the second rear translucent member 128 is disposed on the rear side of the stage 74. As described above, the second rear light emitting unit 120 is formed such that the front and rear positions of the front plate 128a in the second rear light transmitting member 128 are different according to the front and rear positions of the second rear light emitting substrates 124A and 124B located on the rear side. Has been. That is, the second rear light emitting unit 120 is formed so that the upper part of the second rear light transmissive member 128 is located on the rear side in accordance with the upper second rear light emitting substrate 124A located on the back side (rear side). The lower part of the second rear translucent member 128 is formed to be positioned on the front side in accordance with the lower second rear light emitting substrate 124B positioned on the side (front side). The second rear light emitting unit 120 is configured such that the front surface of the lower portion of the second rear light transmitting member 128 is set to be substantially the same as the front surface of the back unit base 52 or slightly rearward, and the rear unit 50 is a plate member. When attached to 42, it is configured to abut against or slightly separate from the rear surface of the plate member 42.

  Since the second rear light emitting unit 120 is attached to the front surface of the back unit box 54 and disposed on the rear side of the plate member 42, the second rear light emitting unit 120 affects the pachinko balls flowing down the game area 40a. Without providing, the space between the plate member 42 and the installation plate portion of the back unit box 54 can be a three-dimensional shape. That is, in the second rear light emitting unit 120, the light emission line is not planar, and the light emission line can have a three-dimensional feeling due to the curved shape of the second rear light transmissive member 128 in the front-rear direction. Can show.

  In the game board 40, since the symbol display device 13 is attached to the rear side of the back unit 50, the display surface of the symbol display device 13 that performs screen display on the display unit 41 is behind (back side) from the game area 40a. Is located. The second rear light emitting unit 120 is formed so that the front plate 128a of the second rear light transmissive member 128 is biased rearward from the bottom toward the display unit 41 side. The step between the second rear light emitting unit 120 can be reduced, and the sense of unity between the screen display constituting the light emitting line on the display unit 41 and the light emitting line by the second rear light emitting unit 120 can be increased. In addition, the three-dimensional shape of the second rear light transmitting member 128 can give an impression that the light emission line formed by the second rear light emitting unit 120 converges toward the display unit 41 located at the center of the game area 40a. The screen display on the display unit 41 having a high degree of attention can be suitably decorated with light emission.

  The second rear light emitting unit 120 forms the front and rear positions of the front plate 128a of the second rear light transmissive member 128 in accordance with the front and rear positions of the upper and lower second rear light emitting substrates 124A and 124B. The positional relationship between the line LED 126 provided on the rear light emitting substrates 124A and 124B and the front plate 128a of the second rear light transmissive member 128 can be appropriately maintained. That is, the light emitted from the line LED 126 can be appropriately diffused by the light diffusion process applied to the front plate 128a of the second rear translucent member 128, and the entire front plate 128a of the second rear translucent member 128 is surface-emitting. In addition, the line LED 126 can be hardly visually recognized from the front side.

  The second rear partition wall portion 130 includes a line LED 126 that constitutes the second rear light emitting portion 120 and a second rear light emitting board 124A, 124B that includes a device LED 204 that emits light at another portion. It is provided at least between the second rear translucent member 128 (see FIG. 15). The second rear partition wall portion 130 is configured to extend along the line-up direction of the line LEDs 126 in the second rear light emitting portion 120 and partition the line LED 126 and the device LED 204. Since the device LED 204 is provided on both the inner and outer sides of the line LED 126 on the upper second rear light-emitting substrate 124A, the line LED 126 is arranged in the upper portion of the second rear light transmitting member 128. Second rear partition walls 130 and 130 are provided on both sides. Since the lower second front light emitting substrate 124B is provided with the device LED 204 only on the inner side with respect to the line LED 126, the lower portion of the second rear translucent member 128 is on the inner side in the line LED 126 arrangement direction. However, in the embodiment, the second rear partition wall portions 130 and 130 are provided on both sides of the second rear light transmitting member 128.

  The second rear partition wall 130 is formed such that a front end facing the front surface of the lower light emitting device 200 extends along a side portion of the second rear light transmissive member 128, and the second rear light transmissive member 128 is formed by the front end. The side of the front plate 128a is bordered to divide the second rear light emitting unit 120 and the front surface of the lower light emitting device 200 adjacent to the second rear light emitting unit 120 (see FIG. 11). The front end of the second rear partition wall 130 is formed in the front-rear direction so as to match the front surface of the front plate 128a of the second rear light transmissive member 128, and descends rearward from the bottom toward the top (display unit 41 side). (See FIG. 47 or FIG. 48). The second rear partition 130 is formed between the second rear light-emitting substrates 124A and 124B and the front plate 128a of the second rear light-transmissive member 128 that covers the front sides of the second rear light-emitting substrates 124A and 124B with a space therebetween. It is provided so as to partition the space.

  In the lower light emitting device 200, since the inner and outer portions of the upper region sandwiching the second rear light emitting unit 120 are configured by the upper decorative cover 206 having light transmittance, the second rear partition wall portion 130 extending particularly to the upper portion. The rear end of the second rear light emitting substrate 124A is in contact with the front surface of the upper second rear light emitting substrate 124A, and the second rear partition wall portion 130 extends to the upper portion of the second rear translucent member 128. The space between the light emitting substrate 124A is closed. The rear end of the second rear partition wall portion 130 extending inside the lower portion is configured to partially abut on the front surface of the lower second rear light emitting substrate 124B, and extends inward of the lower portion. 2 The rear partition wall 130 blocks most of the space between the front plate 128a of the second rear translucent member 128 and the lower second rear light emitting substrate 124B. In addition, the rear end of the second rear partition wall portion 130 extending outside the lower portion is configured to abut on the front surface of the lower second rear light emitting substrate 124B, and the second rear partition wall portion 130 extends outside the lower portion. 2 The rear partition wall 130 blocks the front plate 128a of the second rear translucent member 128 and the lower second rear light emitting substrate 124B. Here, the lower light emitting device 200 is also provided with the device LED 204 inside the lower part of the second rear light emitting unit 120, but the lower decorative cover 220 constituting the lower front surface of the lower light emitting device 200 is Only the portion facing the front side of the device LED 204 is formed of a cover piece 226 having light transmission, and light is transmitted between the second rear light emitting unit 120 and the cover piece 226 spaced apart from the second rear light emitting unit 120. It is not transparent. Therefore, the second rear partition wall 130 extending inside the lower portion is configured to block most of the space between the front plate 128a of the second rear light transmissive member 128 and the lower second rear light emitting substrate 124B. In addition, it is possible to avoid the influence of the mutual light emission effects between the second rear light emitting unit 120 and the cover piece 226 of the lower light emitting device 200.

  The second rear partition wall 130 is made of a treatment that reflects light such as plating or a material that reflects light, and does not transmit light. The second rear partition wall 130 is formed so that the surface facing the line LED 126 reflects light, and the surface opposite to the surface facing the line LED 126 is formed to reflect light. The second rear partition wall 130 is also subjected to light reflection processing at the front end along the side portion of the second rear translucent member 128. As described above, the second rear light emitting unit 120 forms the surface of the second rear partition wall 130 facing the line LED 126 so as to reflect the light, so that the light irradiated from the line LED 126 is emitted to the second rear partition wall 130. It can be more emphasized by reflecting. In addition, since the second rear light-emitting unit 120 has the two second rear partition walls 130 and 130 disposed opposite to each other with the line LED 126 interposed therebetween, the light irradiated from the line LED 126 is suitably diffused by the opposing reflection surface. And can be stressed. In addition, the second rear light emitting unit 120 reflects the light irradiated from the device LED 204 to the second rear partition wall 130 by forming the surface of the second rear partition wall 130 on the device LED 204 side so as to reflect light. Let me emphasize it.

  The second rear partition wall 130 that partitions the inner edge of the upper portion of the second rear light transmissive member 128 is on the side of the decorative frame 216 attached between the left and right second rear light emitting units 120 and 120 in the upper part of the lower light emitting device 200. (See FIG. 47 or FIG. 48).

The electrical components include a drive motor (drive means) 306 of a drive mechanism provided in the upper movable effect device 300, a movable body light emitting device 356 of the upper movable body 340, and a movable motor of the movable mechanism (drive mechanism) in the upper movable body 340. (Motor) 348, driving side detection means 334, movable side detection means 382, and the like.

  The left and right drive mechanisms include a drive motor 306, a rotator 308 rotated by the drive motor 306, an arm 314 whose one end is rotatably provided on the apparatus base 302 via a support 320, and a rotator. 308 and a link 312 that connects the arm 314 (see FIG. 33 or FIG. 34). The drive mechanism has a link structure that converts the rotational motion of the rotating body 308 into the swing motion of the arm 314 by the link 312 (see FIGS. 37 to 40). The drive mechanism is installed outside the display unit 41 (upper side 55a of the back unit box 54) except for a part of the arm 314 that supports the upper movable body 340, and the front side is attached to the back unit base 52, the device cover 338, and the like. Covered and hidden (see FIG. 11 or FIG. 23).

  The upper movable effect device 300 is provided with an attachment shaft 315 protruding toward the front at the other end of the arms 314 and 314 of the left and right drive mechanisms, spaced apart from the left and right on the upper rear surface of the upper movable body 340. The upper movable body 340 is supported by the arms 314 and 314 from the left and right sides (see FIGS. 26, 37, and 38). Each mounting groove 343 is formed to extend in the left-right direction, and accommodates the mounting shaft 315 so that the mounting shaft 315 can be displaced along the length and can be rotated.

  Although the upper movable effect device 300 includes two sets of drive mechanisms, since both drive mechanisms are symmetrically configured, only one drive mechanism will be described. The drive motor 306 is installed on a pedestal 305 provided on the upper side end of the apparatus base 302 (see FIG. 23 or FIG. 27), and an output shaft 306a that projects into the space between the pedestal 305 and the apparatus base 302. A pinion 306b is attached to the tip of (see FIG. 39 or FIG. 40). As the drive motor 306, a stepping motor capable of forward / reverse drive under the control of the overall control device 36 (see FIG. 49) is employed.

  The rotating body 308 is a spur gear having a diameter larger than that of the pinion, and is positioned inside the drive motor 306 and is rotatably supported with respect to the apparatus base 302 (see FIG. 33). The rotating body 308 is configured so that the teeth on the outer periphery mesh with the pinion 306 b and rotate forward and backward in accordance with forward and reverse driving of the drive motor 306. One end of the arm 314 is rotatably supported by a support portion 320 disposed below the drive motor 306 and the rotating body 308. From the support portion 320 side, the arm 314 is inward (leftward if the drive mechanism is on the right side). The upper movable body 340 is attached to the other end portion that extends toward (see FIG. 37 or FIG. 38).

  The link 312 is a rod-shaped member, and an upper end (one end) is rotatably connected to an eccentric position of the circular rotating body 308 and a lower end (the other end) is rotatably connected to the arm 314. (See FIG. 37 or FIG. 38). Specifically, the link 312 is connected by fitting a shaft hole formed in the upper and lower ends to a shaft rod fixed to a portion that is biased radially outward from the center of rotation on the front surface of the rotating body 308. is doing. Further, the link 312 has a shaft hole penetratingly formed at the lower end in the front-rear direction and biased toward the support portion 320 between the support portion 320 (one end portion) and the upper movable body 340 (the other end portion) in the arm 314. And is connected to the arm 314 by fitting with a shaft rod provided on the arm 314.

  In the drive mechanism, the upper end of the link 312 (hereinafter referred to as the link upper end 313) is rotationally displaced along an arc locus as the rotating body 308 is rotated by the driving motor 306, but the rotating body 308 and the arm 314 in the link 312 are rotated. Since the connecting portion is rotatable, the displacement of the horizontal component of the link upper end 313 is not transmitted to the arm 314, and only the displacement of the vertical component of the link upper end 313 is transmitted to the arm 314. (See FIG. 37 or FIG. 38). That is, in the drive mechanism, when the link upper end 313 is displaced from the upper side to the lower side of the rotator 308, the other end of the arm 314 is pushed down (see FIG. 38), and the link upper end 313 is displaced from the lower side to the upper side. Then, the other end of the arm 314 is lifted (see FIG. 37).

  In the upper movable effect device 300, the drive mechanism stops so that the upper movable body 340 is positioned on the front side (upper side of the display unit 41) of the upper side portion 55a of the back unit box 54 at the standby position (see FIG. 37 or FIG. 39). ), The upper movable body 340 is lowered from the standby position by the drive mechanism and is displaced to the operation position (see FIG. 38 or 40) positioned on the front side of the display unit 41, and is configured to reciprocate back to the standby position. . Here, since the standby position (see FIG. 23 or FIG. 25) and the operation position (see FIG. 24 or 26) of the upper movable body 340 are set in a vertical relationship with the standby position on the upper side, the arm 314 is set. The other end of the arm 314 is positioned on the front side of the upper side of the back unit box 54 at the standby position of the upper movable body 340, while the other end of the arm 314 is positioned on the front side of the display unit 41 at the operating position of the upper movable body 340. Is displaced downward from the standby position. That is, in the drive mechanism, the arm 314 descends when the link upper end 313 is rotationally displaced from the upper side to the lower side of the rotating body 308, and the arm 314 is moved when the link upper end 313 is rotationally displaced from the lower side to the upper side. Is going to rise. In this way, the drive mechanism converts the downward displacement component of the link upper end 313 accompanying the rotation of the rotating body 308 into an operation in the forward direction from the standby position in the reciprocating direction of the upper movable body 340 toward the operating position. The upward displacement component of the upper end 313 is converted into a backward movement operation from the operation position in the reciprocating direction of the upper movable body 340 toward the standby position.

  In the drive mechanism, the link upper end 313 is a stop position corresponding to the standby position of the upper movable body 340 (hereinafter referred to as a link stop position), and the upper movable body 340 passes through the rotation center of the rotary body 308 in the reciprocating direction. It is arranged in a semicircular region on the side away from the upper movable body 340 (display unit 41) across the line (see FIG. 37). Specifically, in addition to the above conditions, the link stop position is in a quadrant area on the standby position side of the upper movable body 340 from a line orthogonal to the reciprocating direction of the upper movable body 340 passing through the rotation center of the rotary body 308. Is set. Since the upper movable body 340 operates in the vertical direction and the standby position of the upper movable body 340 is set to the upper side with respect to the operating position, the upper movable production device 300 of the embodiment is rotated on the front surface of the rotating body 308. The posture of the rotating body 308 in which the link upper end 313 is stopped is the upper movable body in a quadrant area outside the left and right lines passing through the center of the rotating body 308 and above the left and right lines passing through the center of the rotating body 308. This corresponds to the standby position 340. Further, the link stop position rotates 45 ° outward from the backward direction side of the point where the line in the reciprocating direction of the upper movable body 340 passing through the rotational center of the rotating body 308 and the rotational locus of the upper end of the link intersect. It is better to set within the range, and it is preferable to shift within a range of about 5 °. In the drive mechanism of the embodiment, the center of the link upper end 313 is arranged slightly shifted outward from the upper end of the rotating body 308 (the uppermost part in the rotation locus of the link upper end 313) at the link stop position.

  In the drive mechanism, the link upper end 313 is a position corresponding to the operation position of the upper movable body 340 (hereinafter referred to as a link operation position), and the line in the reciprocating direction of the upper movable body 340 passes through the rotation center of the rotary body 308. Is arranged in a semicircular region on the upper movable body 340 (display unit 41) side (see FIG. 38). Specifically, in addition to the above conditions, the link operation position is in a quadrant area on the operation position side of the upper movable body 340 from a line orthogonal to the reciprocating direction of the upper movable body 340 passing through the rotation center of the rotary body 308. Is set. Since the upper movable body 340 moves in the vertical direction and the operating position of the upper movable body 340 is set to the lower side with respect to the standby position, the upper movable production device 300 of the embodiment rotates on the front surface of the rotating body 308. The posture of the rotating body 308 in which the link upper end 313 is stopped is movable upward in a quadrant area below the left and right lines passing through the center of the rotating body 308 on the inner side on the display unit 41 side from the upper and lower lines passing through the center of the body 308. It corresponds to the operating position of the body 340.

  In the drive mechanism, the rotational direction in which the link upper end 313 at the link stop position is displaced in the backward movement direction in the reciprocating direction of the upper movable body 340 and then displaced in the forward movement direction is the rotation associated with the positive drive of the drive motor 306. It is set as the forward rotation of the body 308. That is, in the drive mechanism, the direction in which the link upper end 313 rotates inward from the link stop position is the normal rotation of the rotating body 308. In the right drive mechanism, the rotating body 308 rotates counterclockwise by forward rotation, and the rotating body 308 rotates clockwise by reverse rotation. On the other hand, in the drive mechanism on the left side, the rotating body 308 rotates clockwise by forward rotation, and the rotating body 308 rotates counterclockwise by reverse rotation. In other words, in the driving mechanism, the link upper end 313 is displaced in the backward movement direction of the upper movable body 340 along with the forward rotation of the rotating body 308 and then becomes an arc locus that is displaced in the forward movement direction of the upper movable body 340. The link stop position corresponding to the standby position of the upper movable body 340 is set. In the drive mechanism, the link upper end 313 located outside the upper portion of the rotating body 308 at the link stop position rotates the rotating body 308 in the normal direction, so that a line in the reciprocating direction of the upper movable body 340 passing through the rotation center of the rotating body 308 is obtained. The rotary body 308 is rotationally displaced toward the inside beyond the upper end side. Then, the drive mechanism is configured such that the rotating body 308 is normally rotated with the link upper end 313 reaching the lower inner side of the rotating body 308 as a limit, and the rotating body 308 is rotated in the reverse direction, whereby the link upper end 313 is rotated. It is returned to the link stop position beyond the upper end side.

  In the upper movable effect device 300, one end is pivotally supported on the lower side of the rotating body 308 installed on the side of the display unit 41, and the arm 314 extends inward from the one end to the display unit 41 side. The side of the upper movable body 340 is supported at the other end. In addition, the upper movable body 340 reciprocates in the vertical direction between the standby position and the operating position with the other end of the arm 314 moving up and down by the link 312 that is displaced as the rotating body 308 rotates. ing. Under this condition, the drive mechanism is configured such that the link upper end 313 is disposed at the upper portion of the outer region spaced from the display unit 41 across the rotation center of the rotating body 308 at the standby position of the upper movable body 340, and the link upper end 313 rotates. As the body 308 rotates forward, the body 308 is displaced toward the inner region on the display unit 41 side with the rotation center of the rotating body 308 interposed therebetween.

  The upper movable effect device 300 rotates the rotating body 308 in the reverse direction by locking the locking portion 303 provided on the device base 302 and the locked portion 309 provided on the rotating body 308 at the standby position of the upper movable body 340. The upper movable body 340 can be held at the standby position by the regulating means (see FIG. 25 or FIG. 26). The restricting means of the embodiment includes a restricting piece 309 (see FIG. 39 or FIG. 40) as a locked portion protruding from a surface of the rotating body 308 facing the device base 302, and the rotating base 308 of the rotating body 308. A regulation groove (groove) 303 serving as the locking portion which is established in accordance with the displacement locus of the regulation piece 309 accompanying the rotation, accommodates the regulation piece 309 and abuts against the reverse rotation side of the regulation piece 309 at the standby position; (See FIG. 25 or FIG. 26).

  The regulating piece 309 is formed in a cylindrical shape on the rear surface of the rotating body 308, and is rotationally displaced as the rotating body 308 rotates (see FIG. 39 or FIG. 40). The restricting piece 309 is positioned approximately on a concentric circle passing through the center of attachment to the rotating body 308 at the link upper end 313, and is shifted outward (in the reverse rotation direction of the rotating body 308) from the attachment position of the link upper end 313 to the rotating body 308. Are arranged. The restricting groove 303 is formed in a circular arc shape at the side end of the apparatus base 302, and the dimension in the short direction is set slightly larger than the diameter of the restricting piece 309, and the end in the longitudinal direction is the end of the restricting piece 309. It is formed in an arc shape according to the outer shape. The restricting means is configured to accommodate the restricting piece 309 in the restricting groove portion 303, and is set to allow rotation of the rotating body 308 that displaces the upper movable body 340 between the standby position and the operating position.

  In the drive mechanism, when the link upper end 313 is at the link stop position, the restricting groove portion 303 extends in the rotational displacement direction accompanying the forward rotation of the rotating body 308 in the restricting piece 309. On the other hand, since the edge of the restriction groove 303 faces the reverse direction of the rotating body 308 in the restriction piece 309, the restriction piece 309 is locked to the edge of the restriction groove 303 and the rotation of the rotation body 308 is reversed. Is regulated. Further, when the link upper end 313 is in the link operation position, the drive mechanism has the restriction groove 303 extending in the rotational displacement direction accompanying the reverse rotation of the rotary body 308 in the restriction piece 309, so the reverse rotation of the rotary body 308 is performed. On the other hand, since the edge of the restriction groove portion 303 faces the rotation direction of the rotating body 308 in the restriction piece 309, the restriction piece 309 is locked to the edge of the restriction groove portion 303 so that Rotation is regulated. The upper side 55a of the back unit box 54 is formed with a through-opening of a restriction opening 54b that matches each restriction groove 303 (see FIG. 6 or FIG. 17), and the back of the restriction piece 309 inserted into the restriction groove 303. Interference with the unit box 54 is avoided.

  In the upper movable effect device 300, when a force is applied from the upper movable body 340 to the link 312 via the arm 314 in the forward movement direction (downward) at the standby position of the upper movable body 340, the upper movable effect device 300 moves toward the link upper end 313. Force is applied in the moving direction (downward). Therefore, a force is exerted on the rotating body 308 to start rotation downward by the link upper end 313, and the link upper end 313 is positioned above the outer region of the rotating body 308 at the link stop position. A force acts in the direction of rotation. However, in the standby position of the upper movable body 340, the rotation of the rotating body 308 in the reverse rotation direction is regulated by the engagement between the regulating piece 309 of the regulating means and the regulating groove 303, so that the link upper end 313 is moved in the forward direction. The upper movable body 340 can be reliably held at the standby position because the arm 314 does not move in the forward movement direction. Further, since the link upper end 313 cannot be displaced in the forward movement direction unless the link upper end 313 is once displaced in the backward movement direction from the link stop position by rotating the rotating body 308 in the forward direction, the driving mechanism cannot move the upper movable body 340, the arm. Even if a force is applied to the forward movement direction on 314 or the link 312, the rotating body 308 cannot be rotated forward regardless of the drive of the drive motor 306. In other words, the drive mechanism moves the upper movable body 340 from the standby position to the operating position even if a force is applied to the upper movable body 340 by an impact or a load unless the rotary body 308 is rotated forward by the drive motor 306. I can't. The upper movable body 340 is attached with various members such as a movable member 360, 370, a movable mechanism for moving the movable member 360, 370, and a movable body light emitting device 356, and is large and has a large weight on the left and right sides of the display unit 41. However, the upper movable body 340 can be reliably held at the standby position by the restriction means having a simple structure by locking the restriction piece 309 and the restriction groove 303 that does not require a drive source or an operation mechanism such as a solenoid. .

  The restricting means is configured to restrict the reverse rotation of the rotating body 308 only at the standby position of the upper movable body 340 (link stop position of the link upper end 313), and between the standby position and the operating position of the upper movable body 340. In operation, the displacement of the rotating body 308 and the link 312 does not get in the way, so there is no need to operate the restricting means, and the structure of the restricting means can be simplified. In addition, in the upper movable body 340 that is lowered from the standby position to the operating position, the load of the upper movable body 340 is always applied in the direction of rotating the rotary body 308 in the standby position. Therefore, the upper movable body 340 can be reliably held at the standby position.

  A structure of the support part 320 that rotatably supports the arm 314 will be described. The support part 320 is fixed to the device base 302 with a pair of shaft parts 322 and 324 projecting from one end part of the arm 314 opposite to each other, and can rotate the first shaft part (one shaft part) 322.

The second receiving portion 328 is provided with a second receiving groove 329 on the rear surface of the decorative front plate 328a that appears on the front surface of the game board 40 (see FIG. 4 or FIG. 23), and the second receiving groove on the rear surface of the decorative front plate 328a. A pair of fixed leg portions 330 and 330 that are formed to protrude rearward up and down across 329 are fixed to the device base 302 by screws (see FIG. 27 or FIG. 28). The second receiving portion 328 is formed in a double ring shape in which a wall defining a second receiving groove 329 opened rearward is provided inside and outside in the radial direction (see FIG. 34). The front side of the second receiving groove 329 is closed by a decorative front plate 328a, and holds the front portion of the second shaft portion 324 received in the second receiving groove 329.

  The second receiving portion 328 is set to be substantially the same as or slightly larger than the outer diameter of the front portion of the cylindrical second shaft portion 324, and the outer diameter of the inner wall is the first. The biaxial portion 324 is set to be substantially the same as or slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the front portion. That is, the second receiving groove 329 that extends annularly to the rear side of the second receiving portion 328 has a radial width that is set to be substantially the same as the wall of the front portion of the main body portion of the second shaft portion 324. The front portion of the second shaft portion 324 fitted in the two receiving grooves 329 is sandwiched between inner and outer walls that define the second receiving grooves 329. Therefore, the support part 320 moves in the radial direction on the outer wall of the second receiving groove 329 that surrounds the outer side of the second shaft part 324 by inserting the front part of the second shaft part 324 into the second receiving groove 329. In addition, the movement in the radial direction is restricted by the inner wall of the second receiving groove 329 fitted inside the second shaft portion 324.

  The support portion 320 has the first shaft portion 322 fitted into the first receiving groove 327 of the first receiving portion 326 fixed to the apparatus base 302 and the second shaft portion 324 fitted into the second receiving groove 329. By fixing the second receiving portion 328 to the apparatus base 302, one end portion of the arm 314 is configured to be held between the front and rear receiving portions 326 and 328 so as to be rotatable from the front and rear (see FIG. 30 or FIG. 50). Further, the support portion 320 blocks the front side of the wiring port 317 communicating with the first receiving portion 326 from one end portion of the arm 314 with the decorative front plate 328a of the second receiving portion 328, and the upper movable body in the standby position. The supporting arm 314 is hidden (see FIG. 23).

  As described above, the support portion 320 is configured to hold the cylindrical shaft portions 322 and 324 provided on the arm 314 with the annular receiving grooves 327 and 329 in the receiving portions 326 and 328, so that the shaft of the arm 314 is supported. The portions 322 and 324 are sandwiched from the front and rear by the receiving portions 326 and 328, and the shaft portions 322 and 324 are sandwiched from the inside and the outside by the wall that defines the inside of the receiving grooves 327 and 329 and the wall that defines the outside. , One end of the arm 314 is supported. That is, since the support portion 320 holds the one end portion of the arm 314 from both sides in the rotation axis direction and from the inside and outside in the radial direction, the support portion 320 receives the force applied to the arm 314 in a balanced manner and stabilizes the upper movable body 340. Can be supported. The upper movable body 340 is provided with various members such as a movable member 360, 370, a movable mechanism for moving the movable member 360, 370, and a movable body light emitting device 356. The upper movable body 340 is large in size on the left and right sides of the display unit 41 and is heavy. However, the arm 314 can be swung smoothly by appropriately receiving the load of the upper movable body 340 by the support portion 320. In addition, the upper movable body 340 is reciprocated so much that the lower end reaches the approximate center on the front side of the display unit 41 from the standby position retracted to the upper side of the display unit 41 so as to attract the player's attention. Since both arms 314 and 314 that support the body 340 are supported by the support portions 320 and 320 in a well-balanced manner, it is possible to suppress rattling that is irrelevant to the operation effect when the upper movable body 340 is operated.

  In addition, inside the support part 320, there is provided a wiring port 317 serving as a space for wiring to be connected to an electrical component provided in the upper movable body 340, but the shaft parts 322 and 324 have strength in shape. Since it is formed in a cylindrical shape that is advantageous for securing, and the corresponding shaft portions 322 and 324 are sandwiched and held from inside and outside by the receiving grooves 327 and 329 of the receiving portions 326 and 328, the supporting portion 320 The support strength is not reduced. In addition, since the support part 320 is configured to be separated from the main body part of the arm 314, the shaft parts 322 and 324 that are easily fitted and worn in the receiving grooves 327 and 329 of the receiving parts 326 and 328 are detachable. The shaft portions 322 and 324 can be easily replaced. That is, since the support part 320 can be replaced by removing the shaft parts 322 and 324 and the receiving parts 326 and 328 when the shaft parts 322 and 324 and the receiving grooves 327 and 329 are worn, The state where the upper movable body 340 (arm 314) is always held stably can be maintained.

  In the upper movable effect device 300, a detection piece (detection unit) provided on the rotating body 308 by a drive side detection unit (original position detection unit) 334 provided on the front surface of the device base 302 corresponding to each drive mechanism. The position of the upper movable body 340 is determined based on the detection of the presence or absence of 310 (see FIGS. 37 to 40). The detection piece 310 is provided at an eccentric position on the front surface of the rotator 308, and is formed to protrude radially outward from the outer peripheral edge of the rotator 308 (see FIG. 37 or FIG. 38). The detection piece 310 is arranged on the inner side (display unit 41 side) with respect to the link upper end 313 at the link stop position with a line in the reciprocating direction passing through the rotation center of the rotating body 308 interposed therebetween. Is positioned at the standby position of the upper movable body 340 on the backward direction side in the inner region of the rotating body 308 (see FIG. 37). That is, the detection piece 310 of the right drive mechanism is located in the upper left area of the rotating body 308 at the standby position of the upper movable body 340, and the detection piece 310 of the right drive mechanism is located in the upper right area of the rotation body 308. is doing.

  The drive side detection means 334 is provided adjacent to the rotating body 308 at a position off the displacement path of the link 312 and the arm 314 in the apparatus base 302 (see FIGS. 37 to 40), and the displacement of the link 312 and the arm 314 is displaced. It is designed not to get in the way. The drive side detection means 334 is disposed on the inner side of the rotating body 308 and on the backward movement side of the upper movable body 340, and is located on the outer side of the rotating body 308 and on the forward movement direction side of the upper movable body 340. The rotating body 308 is disposed on the opposite side of the support portion 320. That is, the drive side detection means 334 corresponding to the right drive mechanism is arranged on the upper left side of the rotating body 308, and the drive side detection means 334 corresponding to the left drive mechanism is arranged on the upper right side of the rotation body 308. Yes.

  As the drive side detection means 334, a photosensor provided with a sensor portion 334a that is vertically spaced apart on the surface of the substrate that faces the rotating body 308 fixed in an upright position on the apparatus base 302 is employed. The substrate of the drive side detection means 334 extends so as to incline from the outside toward the inside as it moves in the forward movement direction (downward) of the upper movable body 340, and upper and lower sensor parts 334a, A detection piece 310 that protrudes radially outward from the rotating body 308 passes through the space 334a (see FIG. 41). The drive side detection means 334 is configured such that the detection piece 310 is positioned between the upper and lower sensor portions 334a and 334a with the posture of the rotating body 308 with the link upper end 313 at the link stop position (see FIG. 37), The detection piece 310 is detected by closing the space between the sensor units 334a and 334a with the detection piece 310. Here, when the upper movable effect device 300 detects the detection piece 310 by the drive side detection means 334 during the reverse rotation of the rotating body 308, the upper movable effect device 300 continues the reverse drive of the drive motor 306 immediately or by a predetermined number of steps. It comes to stop.

  Since the drive mechanism employs a link structure that converts the rotational motion of the rotator 308 into the swinging motion of the arm 314 via the link 312, the link upper end 313 displaces the upper region of the rotator 308. The amount of displacement of the arm 314 (upper movable body 340) in the reciprocating direction differs between the case and the case where the side region of the rotating body 308 is displaced. That is, in the drive mechanism, the rotational displacement amount of the rotating body 308 and the displacement amount of the arm 314 (upper movable body 340) do not have a corresponding relationship. In the upper movable effect device 300, the position of stopping the upper movable body 340 is not determined by the upper movable body 340 or the arm 314 that supports the upper movable body 340, but on the drive side of the detection piece 310 provided on the rotating body 308. This is based on detection by the detection means 334. For this reason, since the link upper end 313 provided in the rotary body 308 can be reliably stopped at the link stop position, the drive mechanism can be stopped at an accurate position.

  As described above, the drive mechanism is configured such that the restricting means 303 and 309 function at the link stop position of the link upper end 313. Therefore, when position detection is performed by the upper movable body 340 or the arm 314, the rotating body 308 is the upper end of the link. Although the upper movable body 340 once arrives at the standby position regardless of whether the 313 has not returned to the link stop position, there is a possibility that the link upper end 313 may stop in the inner region of the rotator 308 when the rotator 308 is stopped at this position. is there. When the link upper end 313 is in the inner region of the rotating body 308, when a downward force is applied to the upper movable body 340 and the arm 314, the restricting means 303 and 309 that restrict the rotation of the rotating body 308 in the reverse rotation direction function. Instead, the rotating body 308 is rotated in the forward rotation direction via the link upper end 313. In the position determination structure of the embodiment, since the drive mechanism is stopped with reference to the rotating body 308 provided with the restriction piece 309 of the restriction means, the upper movable body 340 is reliably held at the standby position by the restriction means. Can do.

  The device cover 338 covers a portion extending to the left and right except the side end portion of the device base 302 and an upper side portion 55a of the back unit box 54 exposed below the portion extending to the left and right. It is attached to the base 302 (see FIG. 23). The device cover 338 is located on the rear side of the upper movable body 340 in the standby position, and appears on the front side when the upper movable body 340 is displaced to the operating position, so that the upper side of the display unit 41 is decorated. (See FIG. 5 or FIG. 24).

  The upper movable effect device 300 is configured such that the left and right drive mechanisms operate in synchronization, and the upper movable body 340 is reciprocated while maintaining a horizontal posture. When the drive motor 306 is driven forward and the rotating body 308 rotates forward, the upper movable effect device 300 is pushed by the link 312 and the arm 314 swings downward with the support portion 320 as a fulcrum. 340 is displaced downward from the standby position toward the operating position. When the drive motor 306 is reversely driven and the rotary body 308 is reversely rotated, the upper movable effect device 300 is pulled up by the link 312 and the arm 314 swings upward with the support portion 320 as a fulcrum, and accordingly, the upper movable body. 340 is displaced upward from the operating position toward the standby position.

Further, the movable members 360 and 370 are provided with decorative edges (decorative portions) 362 and 372 that frame the outer edge of the petal portion and do not transmit light, and the petal portion surrounded by the decorative edges 362 and 372 is provided. The inner region is composed of light diffusion portions 363 and 373 that transmit light. In addition, in the movable members 360 and 370 of the embodiment, the decorative edge portions 362 and 372 constitute not only the outer edge of the petal portion but also a decoration such as a pistil extending from the root portion of the petal portion toward the central portion of the petal portion. is doing. The decorative edge portions 362 and 372 are subjected to a process of reflecting light such as plating.

  Rotating shafts 361 and 371 are connected to the movable members 360 and 370 at the center of the rear surface where a plurality of petal portions are combined. Each movable member 360, 370 is formed to have a larger outer shape than the light transmission windows 378a, 378b located on the rear side, and the tip of the petal portion is positioned outside the corresponding light transmission windows 378a, 378b. (See FIG. 23 or FIG. 42). Further, each movable member 360, 370 is configured such that the light transmission windows 378a, 378b face the front side from the gap between the adjacent petal portions. The 1st movable member 360 located in the center part of the upper movable body 340 is formed larger than the left and right 2nd movable members 370 and 370 (refer FIG. 23). Moreover, the 1st movable member 360 and the 2nd movable member 370 are comprised so that the light-diffusion aspect of the light-diffusion parts 363 and 373 may differ among several movable members.

  The first movable member 360 is configured such that an insertion portion 366 and a light diffusion sheet 367 are sandwiched between a covering portion 364 that forms the front surface and a rear plate portion 365 that forms the rear surface (see FIGS. 35 and 36). ). The covering portion 364 is formed in a concave shape that opens to the rear side, and is configured as a decorative edge portion 362 that borders the front surface of the outer peripheral edge of the petal portion, and is defined inside the decorative edge portion 362 to constitute the front surface of the light diffusion portion 363. It has a transparent part. The covering portion 364 is formed such that the transparent portion constituting the front surface of the light diffusion portion 363 is raised as compared with the decorative edge portion 362. In the embodiment, the covering portion 364 sandwiches the radial line passing through the central portion of the petal shape. Two raised portions are provided, and the front surface of the light diffusion portion 363 is formed in an uneven shape. The insertion portion 366 is a transparent member formed in a similar shape that is slightly smaller than the covering portion 364 and is fitted from the rear side of the covering portion 364. The light diffusing sheet 367 is a sheet-like member formed in accordance with the outer shape of the first movable member 360, and the light diffusing sheet 367 of the embodiment is subjected to a light diffusing process using a required dot pattern. The rear plate portion 365 is a plate-like member formed in accordance with the outer shape of the first movable member 360, and is formed from a transparent material. A rotation shaft 361 connected to the first main gear 349 is fixed at the center of the rear plate portion 365. The first movable member 360 has an outer shape light set slightly smaller than the outer shape of the first movable member 360 between the insertion portion 366 and the rear plate portion 365 accommodated inside the covering portion 364. It is fixed with screws from the rear side of the rear plate portion 365 with the diffusion sheet 367 interposed therebetween.

  As described above, the first movable member 360 includes the light diffusion portion 363 from the rear plate portion 365 located on the front side of the first light transmission window 378a, the light diffusion sheet 367, the insertion portion 366, and the transparent portion of the covering portion 364. It is configured. The first movable member 360 diffuses the light of the LED 357 irradiated to the front side through the first light transmission window 378a by the light diffusion portion 363 located on the front side of the first light transmission window 378a. The upper movable body 340 is configured such that the light diffusion portion 363 and the decorative edge portion 362 sequentially pass through the front side of the first light transmission window 378a by rotating the first movable member 360. More specifically, since the first movable member 360 has a gap between adjacent petal portions, the decorative edge 362 arrives on the front side of the first light transmission window 378a and the first light transmission window The light diffuser 363 arrives at the front side of the first light transmission window 378a and the light is emitted from the LED 357 irradiated through the first light transmission window 378a. The light of the LED 357 irradiated through the first light transmission window 378a after the gap between the part where the light of the LED 357 is diffused by the light diffusion portion 363 and the petal portion adjacent to the front side of the first light transmission window 378a arrives. The portion that directly leaks is sequentially changed as the first movable member 360 rotates (see FIG. 42).

  The upper movable body 340 has an aspect in which the light of the LED 357 irradiated through the first light transmission window 378a can be visually recognized through the light diffusing unit 363 as the first movable member 360 rotates. Since the mode is sequentially switched to the mode of being invisible by blocking with 362, the effect of light emission can be improved in combination with the rotation operation of the first movable member 360. In addition, the upper movable body 340 has not only the above-described mode, but also the mode in which the first light transmission window 378a faces the front side from the gap between the petal portions. In addition to the mode hidden by 362, the mode of showing the first light transmission window 378a illuminated by the LED 357 appears with the rotation of the first movable member 360, so that the effect of light emission can be further improved.

  The distal end of the first movable member 360 passes through the front side of a plurality of third light transmission windows 378c arranged concentrically around the rotation center of the first movable member 360 outside the first light transmission window 378a. (Refer to FIG. 23 or FIG. 42). The upper movable body 340 is configured such that the light diffusion portion 363 and the decorative edge portion 362 sequentially pass through the front side of each third light transmission window 378c by rotating the first movable member 360. More specifically, since the first movable member 360 has a gap between adjacent petal portions, the decorative edge 362 arrives on the front side of the third light transmission window 378c and the third light transmission window The light diffusing portion 363 arrives at the front side of the third light transmission window 378c and is irradiated through the third light transmission window 378c. The light of the LED 357 irradiated through the third light transmission window 378c after the gap between the portion where the light of the LED 357 is diffused by the light diffusion portion 363 and the petal portion adjacent to the front side of the third light transmission window 378c arrives. The part that directly leaks is sequentially replaced as the first movable member 360 rotates. In addition, since the notch is provided at the tip of the petal portion of the first movable member 360, when this notch arrives at the front side of the third light transmission window 378c, the decorative edge 362 provides a part of the third light transmission window 378c. On the other hand, the remaining portion of the third light transmission window 378c faces the front side through the notch, so that the light of the LED 357 irradiated through the third light transmission window 378c leaks.

  The upper movable body 340 has a mode in which the light of the LED 357 irradiated through the third light transmission window 378c can be visually recognized through the light diffusion portion 363 as the first movable member 360 rotates. Since the mode is sequentially switched to the mode of being invisible by blocking with 362, the effect of light emission can be improved in combination with the rotation operation of the first movable member 360. In addition, the upper movable body 340 diffuses light by the light diffusion portion 363 because the third light transmission window 378c faces the front side from the gap between the petal portions and the notch at the tip of the petal portion in addition to the above-described mode. In addition to the aspect and the aspect of concealing the light with the decorative edge 362, the aspect of showing the third light transmission window 378c illuminated by the LED 357 appears with the rotation of the first movable member 360. Can be improved. In addition, since the third light transmission window 378c is formed in a lens shape unlike the first light transmission window 378a formed in a flat plate shape, the third light transmission window 378c has a light diffusion mode different from that of the first light transmission window 378a. The visual aspect from the gap of the 1 movable member 360 is also different. Therefore, the upper movable body 340 obtains a high effect by combining the light emission effect at the first light transmission window 378a and the light emission effect at the third light transmission window 378c.

  Unlike the first movable member 360 configured by overlapping a plurality of members 364, 365, 366, and 367, the second movable member 370 is a single member in which a decorative edge 372 is formed on the outer edge and a required portion of a transparent member. (See FIG. 35 or FIG. 36). The second movable member 370 is configured such that the raised shape formed in the transparent portion surrounded by the decorative edge portion 372 functions like a lens, and this transparent portion diffuses light as the light diffusion portion 373. The upper movable body 340 is configured such that the light diffusing portion 373 and the decorative edge portion 372 sequentially pass through the front side of the second light transmission window 378b by rotating the second movable member 370. More specifically, since the second movable member 370 has a gap between adjacent petals, the decorative edge 372 arrives at the front side of the second light transmission window 378b and the second light transmission window The light diffuser 373 arrives at the front side of the second light transmission window 378b and is irradiated through the second light transmission window 378b and the portion where the light of the LED 357 irradiated through 378b is hidden by the decorative edge 372. The light of the LED 357 irradiated through the second light transmission window 378b after the gap between the part where the light of the LED 357 is diffused by the light diffusion portion 373 and the petal portion adjacent to the front side of the second light transmission window 378b arrives. The leaking portion is sequentially replaced as the second movable member 370 rotates.

  The upper movable body 340 has a mode in which the light of the LED 357 irradiated through the second light transmission window 378b can be visually recognized through the light diffusion portion 373 as the second movable member 370 rotates. Therefore, the effect of light emission can be improved in combination with the rotational operation of the second movable member 370. In addition, the upper movable body 340 has not only the above-described mode, but also the mode in which the second light transmission window 378b faces the front side from the gap between the petal portions. In addition to the mode hidden by 372, the mode showing the second light transmission window 378b illuminated by the LED 357 appears with the rotation of the second movable member 370, so that the effect of light emission can be further improved.

  The upper movable body 340 is configured such that the plurality of movable members 360, 370, 370 do not operate separately, but the plurality of movable members 360, 370, 370 rotate in the same direction by a movable mechanism. The operation of the movable members 360, 370, and 370 and the light emission effect are associated with each other, and an effect with a sense of unity can be performed as the entire upper movable body 340. In addition, since the light diffusing unit 363 of the first movable member 360 and the light diffusing unit 373 of the second movable member 370 are subjected to different light diffusing treatments, the light emitting effects with a sense of unity as a whole are slightly different for each region. Different light emission effects are made, and a variety of light emission effects can be provided.

  In the upper movable body 340, based on detection of the presence or absence of a detection protrusion (detection unit) 353 provided on the gear 350 by a movable-side detection means (original position detection means) 382 provided on the rear side of the rear cover 342. Thus, the positions of the plurality of movable members 360, 370, 370 are determined (see FIG. 45). The movable side detecting means 382 is disposed in an attachment recess 342b that is recessed in the rear cover 342 so as to open to the front side (see FIG. 35 or FIG. 36). In the embodiment, the movable side detection means 382 is attached to the left side of the rear cover 342. The movable side detection means 382 is disposed on the rear side of the second main gear 350 that is formed on the left side with the recess 342b formed. As the movable-side detecting means 382, a photosensor having a sensor portion 382a that is separated from the left and right on the front surface of the substrate disposed in the mounting recess 342b so as to be parallel to the rear surface of the gear group is employed. In the upper movable body 340 of the embodiment, the sensor portion 382a of the movable side detection means 382 is inside (right side) of the second main gear 350, and the rotation shafts 371 and 352 of the second main gear 350 and the sub gear 351. Are arranged on the line (see FIG. 46).

  The detection protrusion 353 is formed to protrude rearward from the rear surface of the second main gear 350 located on the left side, and is arranged at an eccentric position radially outward from the rotation center of the main gear 350 ( (See FIG. 36). The detection protrusion 353 is installed so as to pass between the sensor portions 382a of the movable side detection means 382 as the second main gear 350 rotates, and the left and right sensor portions are detected by the movable side detection means 382. The presence or absence of the detection protrusion 353 between 382a and 382a can be detected. Here, when the upper movable effect device 300 detects the detection protrusion 353 by the sensor portions 382a and 382a of the movable-side detection means 382, the upper movable effect device 300 stops immediately after driving the movable motor 348 by a predetermined number of steps. It has become. In the upper movable body 340, when the movable motor 348 is stopped by the detection of the detection protrusion 353 by the movable side detection means 382, the first and second movable members 360, 370, and 370 rotating in conjunction with each other are one. The petal portion is stopped in the same posture in which the tip of the petal portion is directed vertically upward (see FIG. 23).

  Since the plurality of movable members 360, 370, and 370 rotate in synchronization with the upper movable body 340, all the movable members 360, 370, 370, and the movable member 360, 370, 370, 370, when position detection is performed by the detection protrusion 353 provided on one main gear 350 The position of 370 can be accurately detected. That is, even if a plurality of movable members 360, 370, 370 are provided on the upper movable body 340, one movable side detection means 382 is sufficient, and a large installation space for the movable side detection means 382 is not required. In addition, since the detection protrusion 353 provided on the second main gear 350 separated from the movable motor 348 is detected by the movable side detection means 382 instead of the first main gear 349 connected to the movable motor 348, Interference between the movable motor 348 and the movable side detection means 382 can be avoided. Since the movable side detecting means 382 is disposed so as to protrude to the rear side of the rear cover 342, the gear group provided on the front side of the rear cover 342, the movable members 360, 370, 370, the movable body light emitting device 356, and the like are arranged. The movable body detecting means 382 does not press the installation space. Further, by providing the detection protrusion 353 on the main gear 350 having a smaller diameter than that of the slave gear 351, the angle shift is less than that of the slave gear 351, so that the position can be detected more accurately.

  The upper movable effect device 300 includes a movable motor 348 for moving the movable members 360, 370, 370 to the upper movable body 340, a movable side detecting means 382 for determining the positions of the movable members 360, 370, 370, Since the movable body light emitting device 356 for emitting light from the upper movable body 340 is provided, wiring is provided between the upper relay substrate 86 and the upper movable body 340 installed on the back unit 50 side.

When the arm 314 is used in combination with the light emitting effect unit 100, it is preferable to route the wiring by other means without providing the arm 314 with the wiring. Furthermore, by performing a diffusion process on the arm 314, it is possible to change the screen display mode of the display unit 41 that is visible through the arm 314. Further, the covering piece 319 may be omitted, or the covering piece may be formed so as to have light transmittance.

  Thus, although the arms 314 and 314 that support the movable body 340 overlap with the front side of the display unit 41 at the operating position of the upper movable body 340, the portion located on the front side of the display unit 41 in the arm 314 is positively used as a production part. By using it for various purposes, it is possible to diversify the production mode by the light emission production unit 100. In addition, by performing screen display on the display unit 41 in accordance with the arm 314 at the operation position, it is possible to display the screen display that is emphasized or changed to a different mode via the arm 314. In addition, the arm 314 at the operation position and the light emitting unit set extending vertically across the display unit 41 are located on the same line, and the game board 40 can be used by combining it with the screen display on the display unit 41. A dynamic performance can be performed. The gaming board 40 is configured such that the lower end of the first rear light emitting unit 102 is positioned above the arm 314 in the operating position, and the first rear light emitting unit 102 can illuminate the display unit 41 side. 1 The arm 314 in the rear light emitting unit 102 can be illuminated. Therefore, it is possible to further improve the effect of synergy between the arm 314 and the screen display.
