  In addition, as shown in FIG. 18, the operation gear portion 98 of the operation portion 96 is configured to mesh with the operation connection gear 93 of the connection connection gear 91, and according to the rotation of the connection connection gear 91, The operating parts 96 rotate forward and backward all at once around the support shaft 84, and the movable member 81 corresponding to the rotation of the operating parts 96 rotates forward and backward. That is, as the connection connecting gear 91 rotates, the operating portion 96 rotates within a range in which the restricting protrusions 85 of the movable members 81 abut both ends of the first arcuate hole 74 in the extending direction. Thus, each movable member 81 is displaced in the first posture and the second posture. Here, each of the operating portions 96 has the corresponding movable member 81 in the state where the connecting shaft portion 95 of the connecting connecting gear 91 is positioned at the first engaging end portion 75a of the second arcuate hole portion 75. The operation gear portion 98 meshes with the operation connection gear 93 so as to be held in one posture, the connection connection gear 91 is rotated relative to the rotation base body 71, and the connection shaft portion 95 is the second arcuate hole portion 75. The operating gear portion 98 is configured to mesh with the operating linkage gear 93 so as to hold the corresponding movable member 81 in the second posture in the state of moving to the second engaging end portion 75b.

(About sliding parts 101 and 107)
As shown in FIGS. 16 to 20, the support base body 32 (specifically elastic) is provided at a plurality of locations (eight locations in the embodiment) spaced apart in the circumferential direction on the outer peripheral edge of the rotation base body 71. The sliding contact portions 101 and 107 that are in sliding contact with the cover 38) are provided uniformly, and the respective sliding contact portions 101 and 107 are slidably contacted with the support base body 32 to rotate around the cylindrical shaft portion 51. The rotational stability of the base body 71 is improved. In the embodiment, as the sliding contact portions 101 and 107, the first sliding contact portion 101 provided so as to be movable in the radial direction of the rotation base body 71 and the fixed position (in the radial direction of the rotation base body 71). There are two types, the second sliding contact portion 107 provided in a non-movable state. Here, while the rotation center of the rotary base body 71 coincides with the rotation center of the rotary movable body 61, each of the first sliding contact portions 101 is in sliding contact with the support base body 32 (elastic cover 38). The second sliding contact portion 107 is configured to be slightly separated from the support base body 32. Further, since the basic configuration of the first sliding contact portion 101 is the same, only the configuration of one first sliding contact portion 101 will be described in the following description. Similarly, since the basic configuration of the second sliding contact portion 107 is the same, only the configuration of one second sliding contact portion 107 will be described in the following description. In the rotation base body 71 of the embodiment, the four first sliding contact portions 101 are equally spaced apart in the circumferential direction, and the four second sliding contact portions 107 are between the first sliding contact portions 101. Are spaced apart equally in the circumferential direction.

  As shown in FIGS. 17, 18, and 20, the first sliding contact portion 101 extends in the radial direction (direction intersecting the rotation direction) of the rotation base body 71 and penetrates in the front-rear direction. A guide shaft portion (shaft portion) 103 that is loosely fitted to penetrate the guide hole portion 76 and is movable in the radial direction of the rotation base body 71 along the guide hole portion 76, A first roller member 104 that is attached to the front and rear ends of the guide shaft portion 103 and rotates about the guide shaft portion 103, and the first roller member 104 is connected to the annular wall portion 36 of the support base body 32. It is basically formed from an elastic member 105 that urges toward the side. That is, the first roller member 104 that is in contact with the support base body 32 (elastic cover 38) by the urging of the elastic member 105 rotates as the rotation base body 71 rotates, so that the rotation base body 71 is rotated. To improve the stability.

  Here, as shown in FIG. 20, the elastic member 105 has a fitting hole 105a into which the guide shaft portion 103 is fitted, and an edge portion on the rotation center side of the rotation base body 71 in the fitting hole 105a. A locking projection 77 (see FIG. 18), which is connected to the pair of spring pieces 105b extending outward in the radial direction of the fitting hole 105a and is located so as to sandwich the guide hole 76. The spring pieces 105b are engaged with each other, and the guide shaft portion 103 is urged toward the outer peripheral side edge portion of the rotation base body 71 in the guide hole portion 76. That is, the elastic member 105 urges the guide shaft portion 103 to urge the first roller member 104 toward the annular wall portion 36 side of the support base body 32. The elastic member 105 is provided on the end side of the guide shaft portion 103 that protrudes from the guide hole portion 76 to the back side of the rotation base body 71. That is, as shown in FIG. 21A, the guide shaft portion 103 is biased outward in the radial direction of the rotary base body 71 by the elastic member 105 at a position biased toward the rear end side of the guide shaft portion 103. Thus, the rear end side of the guide shaft portion 103 is held in an inclined posture that is located radially outward as compared to the front end portion of the guide shaft portion 103.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 17, 18, and 20, the first roller member 104 includes a large-diameter roller 104a provided at the rear end portion (one end portion) of the guide shaft portion 103, and the guide shaft. A small-diameter roller 104b provided at the front end (the other end) of the portion 103 and having a smaller diameter than the large-diameter roller 104a. In the first sliding contact portion 101, the large-diameter roller 104 a is urged toward the annular wall portion 36 side of the support base body 32 by the elastic member 105, and the rotation center of the rotation base body 71 is In a state where it coincides with the rotation center of the rotatable movable body 61, only the large-diameter roller 104a is always in contact with the elastic cover 38 while the small-diameter roller 104b is separated from the elastic cover 38. That is, when the rotation base body 71 rotates, the first sliding contact portion 101 causes the first sliding contact with the rotation base body 71 due to the elastic deformation of the elastic member 105 due to vibration accompanying the rotation. The small-diameter roller 104b comes into contact with the elastic cover 38 of the support base body 32 by displacing the installation position of the portion 101 toward the annular wall 36 of the support base body 32. When the small-diameter roller 104b is in contact with the elastic cover 38 of the support base body 32, the large-diameter roller 104a urged toward the annular wall 36 of the support base body 32 by the elastic member 105 is also elastic. The rotating base body 71 is supported by the large diameter roller 104a and the small diameter roller 104b in contact with the cover 38.

  As shown in FIGS. 17, 18, and 20, the second sliding contact portion 107 is formed on a shaft fixing portion that is formed so as to protrude rearward from the rotation base body 71. And a second roller member 109 attached to the front end portion of the roller shaft portion 108, and the second roller member 109 is centered on the roller shaft portion 108. Configured to rotate. Here, in a state where the rotation center of the rotation base body 71 coincides with the rotation center of the rotation movable body 61, the second roller 104 a of the first roller member 104 is in contact with the elastic cover 38 in the second state. The sliding contact portion 107 (second roller member 109) is slightly separated from the support base body 32. The second roller member 109 is configured such that a part of the second roller member 109 protrudes outward from the outer peripheral edge of the rotating base body 71 while being supported by the roller shaft portion 108. The second roller member 109 comes into contact with the annular wall portion 36 of the body 32 before the rotation base body 71 comes into contact therewith. That is, when the rotation base body 71 rotates, the installation position of the second slidable contact portion 107 in the rotation base body 71 is accompanied by elastic deformation of the elastic member 105 due to vibration accompanying the rotation or the like. The second roller member 109 is brought into contact with the elastic cover 38 of the support base body 32 by moving close to the annular wall 36 side of 32.

(Operation of Example)
Next, the operation of the pachinko machine 10 according to the embodiment configured as described above will be described.

  The pachinko balls launched into the game area 20a along the rails 21 provided on the game board 20 come into contact with the game nails provided on the game board 20 while changing the flow direction. Then, when the pachinko ball flowing down the game area 20a wins the start winning device 23, the symbol change effect on the symbol display device 18 is started based on the control of the control device. As a result of the symbol change effect, A big hit occurs when a predetermined symbol combination is displayed on the display device 18. When a big hit occurs, the special winning device 24 provided below the game board 20 is opened according to the symbol combination displayed on the symbol display device 18, and the symbol display device is controlled based on the control of the control device. A big hit effect is performed at 18.

  Then, the drive device 29 disposed on the installation member 26 is driven based on a control signal from the control device in accordance with a design variation effect or a big hit effect developed in the design display device 18, The arm member 28 is moved up and down, and the drive motor 46 of the movable effect device 30 is driven based on a control signal from the control device, so that the rotational motion effect of the rotary movable body 61 and the movable member 81 is performed. . In addition, the LED 59a of the LED board 59 emits light based on a control signal from the control device in accordance with a symbol variation effect or a big hit effect developed in the symbol display device 18, so that a light emission effect is performed. It has become.

  Here, the operation of the movable effect device 30 will be described. First, a state in which each connecting shaft portion 95 of the connecting connecting gear 91 is in contact with and engaged with the first engaging end portion 75a of the corresponding second arcuate hole portion 75 formed in the rotation base body 71 is a reference state. (That is, the states shown in FIGS. 5, 16 to 18, and 22). In this state, when the drive motor 46 is rotationally driven to rotate the drive gear 47 based on the control signal of the control device, the movable body gear 63 is similarly rotated via the idle gear 48, Accordingly, the rotary movable body 61 is rotated in the second rotation direction. On the other hand, since the connecting gear 91 (drive connecting gear 92) of the posture switching means 75a, 75b, 91, 95, 96 is directly meshed with the drive gear 47, the connecting gear 91 is It is rotated in the first rotation direction. At this time, each connecting shaft portion 95 of the connecting connecting gear 91 has a first engagement end portion 75a (that is, an end portion in the first rotation direction) of a corresponding second arcuate hole portion 75 formed in the rotation base body 71. ), The rotation base body 71 is rotated in the first rotation direction integrally with the rotation of the connection connecting gear 91 (see FIG. 23). Here, in a state where each of the connecting shaft portions 95 abuts and engages with the first engaging end portion 75 a of the second arcuate hole 75, the operating connecting gear 93 of the connecting connecting gear 91 and each operating portion 96. Each movable member 81 provided on the rotation base body 71 is held in the first posture by meshing with the operating gear portion 98. That is, with the rotation of the rotary movable body 61 in the second rotation direction, the rotary base body 71 is rotated in the second rotation direction while the movable members 81 are held in the first posture. It is perceived by the player that only the rotary movable body 61 is rotating.

  Further, when the drive motor 46 is driven to rotate the drive gear 47 in the reverse direction from the reference state based on the control signal of the control device, the movable body gear 63 rotates via the idle gear 48. Accordingly, the rotary movable body 61 is rotated in the first rotation direction. On the other hand, the connecting gear 91 (drive connecting gear 92) of the posture switching means 75a, 75b, 91, 95, 96 is directly meshed with the driving gear 47. Is rotated in the second rotational direction. When the connection connecting gear 91 is rotated in the second rotation direction, each connection shaft portion 95 of the connection connecting gear 91 is separated from the first engagement end portion 75a of the corresponding second arcuate hole 75. 2 Move toward the engaging end 75b (see FIG. 24). That is, since the engagement between the connecting shaft portions 95 of the connecting connection gear 91 and the corresponding second arcuate hole portions 75 is released, the rotation base body 71 is rotated along with the rotation of the connecting connection gear 91 in this state. Does not rotate, and the connection connecting gear 91 rotates relative to the rotation base body 71 in the second rotation direction.

  When the connection connecting gear 91 rotates in the second rotation direction relative to the rotation base body 71, the operation connection gear 93 of the connection connection gear 91 and the operations supported by the rotation base body 71. Each operating portion 96 is rotated (rotated leftward in FIG. 24) by meshing with the operating gear portion 98 of the portion 96, and the corresponding movable member 81 is changed from the first posture to the second posture as the operating portion 96 rotates. It is rotationally displaced. That is, when the connection connecting gear 91 rotates in the second rotation direction relative to the rotation base body 71, the movable members 81 are rotationally displaced from the first posture to the second posture, so that the rotational movement is possible. The movable member 81 changes radially from the outer peripheral edge of the body 61 (see FIGS. 6 and 24). In addition, at the timing when the movable member 81 is displaced to the second posture, each connection shaft portion 95 of the connection connection gear 91 is connected to the second engagement of the corresponding second arcuate hole portion 75 formed in the rotation base body 71. Abuttingly engages with the end portion 75b (that is, the end portion in the second rotation direction). When the drive motor 46 rotates reversely from this state, each connecting shaft portion 95 of the connecting connecting gear 91 comes into contact with and engages with the second engaging end 75b of the corresponding second arcuate hole 75. Therefore, the rotation base body 71 is rotated in the second rotation direction integrally with the rotation of the connection connecting gear 91 (see FIG. 25). That is, with the rotation of the rotary movable body 61 in the second rotational direction, the rotary base body 71 is rotated in the first rotational direction while the movable members 81 are held in the second posture. From the view, the outer peripheral edge of the rotary movable body 61 is seen so that the movable member 81 rotates in the opposite direction to the rotary movable body 61 (see FIG. 2).

  Further, in a state where each connecting shaft portion 95 of the connecting connecting gear 91 is in contact with and engaged with the second engaging end portion 75b of the corresponding second arcuate hole portion 75 of the rotation base body 71, When the drive motor 46 is rotationally driven to rotate the drive gear 47 based on the control signal, the rotary movable body 61 is rotated in the second rotational direction and the drive gear 47 is On the other hand, the connection connecting gear 91 that directly meshes with the drive connecting gear 92 is rotated in the first rotation direction. In this case, each connecting shaft portion 95 of the connecting connecting gear 91 moves away from the second engaging end portion 75b of the corresponding second arcuate hole 75 toward the first engaging end portion 75a. (See FIG. 22). That is, since the engagement between the connecting shaft portions 95 of the connecting connection gear 91 and the corresponding second arcuate hole portions 75 is released, the rotation base body 71 is rotated along with the rotation of the connecting connection gear 91 in this state. Does not rotate, and the connection connecting gear 91 rotates relative to the rotation base body 71 in the first rotation direction.

  When the connection connecting gear 91 rotates in the first rotation direction relative to the rotation base body 71, the operation connection gear 93 of the connection connection gear 91 and the operations supported by the rotation base body 71. Each operating portion 96 is rotated (rotated to the right in FIG. 22) by meshing with the operating gear portion 98 of the portion 96, and the corresponding movable member 81 is changed from the second posture to the first posture as the operating portion 96 rotates. It is rotationally displaced. That is, when the connection connecting gear 91 rotates in the first rotation direction relative to the rotation base body 71, the movable members 81 are rotationally displaced from the second attitude to the first attitude, and the rotationally movable. Each movable member 81 is covered behind the body 61 so that it cannot be seen from the front side (see FIGS. 1, 3, and 5). Then, at the timing when the movable member 81 is displaced to the first posture, each connection shaft portion 95 of the connection connection gear 91 is a first engagement of the corresponding second arcuate hole portion 75 formed in the rotation base body 71. The abutting engagement with the end portion 75a returns to the reference state described above.

  Thus, in the movable effect device 30 according to the embodiment, the rotation base body 71 is supported by the rotation base body 71 by rotating the rotation base body 71 in the first rotation direction or the second rotation direction by driving the drive motor 46. The movable member 81 integrally rotates in the first rotation direction and the second rotation direction. When the rotation base body 71 is rotated in the first rotation direction, the movable member 81 is moved from the second posture to the first position while the connecting connection gear 91 rotates relative to the rotation base body 71. When the rotation base body 71 is rotated in the second rotation direction by being displaced to the attitude, the movable member 81 is moved from the first attitude to the first position while the connection connecting gear 91 rotates relative to the rotation base body 71. The posture switching means 75a, 75b, 91, 95, 96 can displace the posture of the movable member 81 so as to be displaced to two postures. That is, as the drive motor 46 is driven, the rotation direction of the rotation base body 71 is switched between the first rotation direction and the second rotation direction, whereby the rotation direction of the movable member 81 can be switched integrally and the movable member. The posture 81 can be switched between the first posture and the second posture. In this way, by switching the rotation direction of the rotation base body 71 by driving the drive motor 46, the movable member 81 can be moved differently, and the range of game effects by the movement of the movable member 81 can be expanded. The decorativeness of the gaming machine can be improved.

  Further, as the engagement means of the posture switching means 75a, 75b, 91, 95, 96, a second connecting hole 91 is provided with a connecting shaft portion 95 in the connecting connecting gear 91, and the connecting shaft portion 95 is loosely fitted. Since the portion 75 (the first engagement end portion 75a and the second engagement end portion 75b) is formed on the rotation base body 71, the rotation direction of the rotation base body 71 is rotated by the first rotation as the drive motor 46 is driven. Direction and the second rotation direction can be reliably switched. Further, as the posture switching means 75 a, 75 b, 91, 95, 96, by using an operation part 96 having the connection connecting gear 91 and an operation gear part 98 meshing with the connection connecting gear 91, the rotation base body 71 The posture of the movable member 81 can be reliably changed according to the rotation direction. The posture switching means 75a, 75b, 91, 95, 96 are connected to the connecting gear 91, the operating part 96 and the engaging means (the connecting shaft part 95, the first engaging end of the second arc-shaped hole as described above. The rotation direction of the rotation base body 71 can be switched according to the drive direction of the drive motor 46 and the rotation direction of the rotation base body 71 can be switched with a simple configuration of the portion 75a and the second engagement end portion 75b). Since the posture of the movable member 81 can be switched, the configuration of the movable effect device 30 can be simplified, and it is possible to prevent the manufacturing process from becoming complicated and the manufacturing cost from being increased.

  Further, when the connecting connection gear 91 is rotated in the first rotation direction or the second rotation direction relative to the rotation base body 71, the restricting protrusion 85 formed on the movable member 81 is the rotation base body 71. The operating portion 96 is configured to rotate within a range in contact with the end portion of the first arcuate hole portion 74 formed in the above. That is, when the rotation base body 71 rotates integrally with the rotation of the connection connecting gear 91, the operating portion 96 is brought into contact by the contact engagement of the restriction projection 85 and the first arcuate hole 74. Therefore, each movable member 81 can be reliably held in the first posture and the second posture.

  Further, the movable effect device 30 of the embodiment includes the rotary movable body 61 that rotates in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the rotary base body 71 as the drive motor 46 is driven, as described above. When the movable member 81 is in the first posture, the movable member 81 is covered with the rotary movable body 61. When the movable member 81 is in the second posture, the movable member 81 extends from the outer peripheral edge of the rotary movable body 61. It is supposed to be. That is, in the movable effect device 30 according to the embodiment, only the rotary movable body 61 is rotated in the second rotation direction by switching the rotational drive direction of the drive motor 46 based on the control signal of the control device. A visible moving effect and a moving effect in which the rotary movable body 61 rotates in the first rotation direction and the movable member 81 rotates in the second direction can be performed. As described above, in the movable effect device 30, the movable member 81 is caused to appear and disappear from the outer peripheral portion of the rotary movable body 61 according to the rotation direction of the rotary movable body 61, and the movable member 81 is moved by the outer peripheral portion of the rotary movable body 61. It can be rotated, and it is possible to produce an effect by a new movement that has never existed before, so that the interest of the game can be enhanced.

  By the way, in the movable effect device 30 according to the embodiment, the rotary movable body 61 and the rotary base body 71 are rotated by a single drive motor 46 and a plurality of rotary base bodies 71 are provided along with the rotation of the rotary base body 71. Since the movable member 81 is displaced in posture, the load on the drive motor 46 tends to increase. Here, the gear ratio of the drive connection gear 92 of the connection connection gear 91 in the posture switching means 75a, 75b, 91, 95, 96 with respect to the drive gear 47 is larger than the gear ratio of the movable body gear 63 to the drive gear 47. By setting so as to be, the force acting on the rotary movable body 61 (force for operating the rotary movable body 61) and the force acting on the posture switching means 75a, 75b, 91, 95, 96 (rotation base body 71 and The load on the drive motor 46 can be reduced while maintaining the balance of the force for operating the plurality of movable members 81. As a result, the operational stability of the rotary movable body 61, the rotary base body 71, and each movable member 81 is improved, and a small motor can be adopted as the drive motor 46. Manufacturing costs can be reduced.

  In the movable effect device 30, an LED board 59 is disposed on an installation plate 53 positioned between the rotary movable body 61 and the rotary base body 71, and the LED board 59 is based on a control signal from the control device. By emitting the LED 59a, the light transmitted through the rotary movable body 61 is irradiated forward. In other words, not only the effects of rotation of the rotary movable body 61 and each movable member 81, but also the effects of light emission of the rotary movable body 61 can be performed, and the variety of game effects can be enhanced, and the pachinko machine 10 Decorative properties are improved. An installation plate 53 for installing the LED board 59 is provided so as to be positioned in front of the front end portion of the annular wall portion 36 of the support base body 32, and is movable from the first posture to the second posture. Since the member 81 is configured to face between the installation plate 53 and the front end portion of the annular wall portion 36, the installation plate 53 (LED substrate 59) does not hinder the operation of the movable member 81.

  Here, the LED board 59 has the installation plate 53 in a state in which the front shaft support portion 54 protruding to the front surface 53a side of the installation board 53 is fitted into a through hole 59c formed in the LED board 59. The elastic piece 58a is elastically deformed so as to displace the engaging portion 58b of the variable restricting portion 58 formed at the retracted position, and the LED substrate 59 is rotated around the front shaft support portion 54, thereby the LED substrate. The holding piece 59 b of 59 is inserted into the insertion groove portion 57 formed on the installation plate 53. In this state, the engaging portion 58b is returned to the protruding position by the elasticity of the elastic piece 58a, so that the engaging portion 58b is inserted into the side end portion of the holding piece 59b of the LED board 59 inserted into the insertion groove portion 57. The rotation of the LED substrate 59 in the direction in which the holding piece 59b is pulled out from the insertion groove portion 57 that contacts and engages is restricted. Further, when the LED board 59 is removed, the holding piece 59b comes out of the insertion groove portion 57 by elastically deforming the elastic piece 58a of the variable restricting portion 58 so that the engaging portion 58b is displaced to the retracted position. The LED substrate 59 can be removed from the installation plate 53 by rotating the LED substrate 59 about the front shaft support portion 54 in the direction.

  As described above, since the LED board 59 can be attached to the installation plate 53 simply by rotating the LED board 59, the LED board 59 can be easily attached to and detached from the installation plate 53 without using a tool. Therefore, the attaching / detaching operation of the LED substrate 59 to / from the substrate holding portion becomes efficient, and the burden on the operator can be reduced. Further, by fitting the front shaft support portion 54 into the through hole 59c of the LED substrate 59, the LED substrate 59 can be easily rotated with respect to the installation plate 53 with the front shaft support portion 54 as a rotation axis. This can contribute to an improvement in the workability of attaching and detaching the LED substrate 59. Moreover, since the LED substrate 59 does not shift with respect to the installation plate 53 at the time of rotation, the LED substrate 59 can be rotated accurately and can be reliably attached to and detached from the installation plate 53.

  The engaging portions 58b of the variable restricting portions 58 are formed with inclined guide portions 58c that are inclined forward as they approach the insertion groove portions 57 from the end portions that are separated from the corresponding insertion groove portions 57 (projecting portions 53b). Therefore, when the LED board 59 in contact with the installation plate 53 is rotated around the front shaft support portion 54, each holding piece 59b corresponds to the variable restricting portion 58 (engagement portion 58b) to which it corresponds. The elastic pieces 58 a are brought into contact with the inclined guide portions 58 c and elastically deformed to the retracted positions, so that the holding pieces 59 b can be easily inserted into the corresponding insertion groove portions 57. That is, when attaching the LED board 59, it is not necessary for the operator to directly elastically deform the elastic piece 58a of the variable restricting portion 58, so that the mounting workability of the LED board 59 can be improved.

  Further, an annular rib 53e protruding forward is formed on the front surface 53a of the installation plate 53 at a position substantially aligned with the outer peripheral edge of the LED substrate 59, so that the LED substrate 59 contacts the installation plate 53. The contact area to be reduced is reduced, and the frictional resistance when rotating the LED substrate 59 can be reduced. Thereby, the LED board 59 can be smoothly rotated, and the attaching / detaching work of the LED board 59 can be performed efficiently. Further, since the annular rib 53e is provided so as to surround a wiring pattern (not shown) formed on the LED substrate 59, it is avoided that the annular rib 53e contacts the wiring pattern. It is possible to prevent the circuit pattern from being damaged when the substrate 59 is rotated.

  A first sliding contact portion 101 and a second sliding contact portion 107 are provided at the outer peripheral edge of the rotation base body 71 so as to be spaced apart from each other in the circumferential direction. The roller members of the first slidable contact portion 101 and the second slidable contact portion 107 are configured to slidably contact the elastic cover 38 of the support base body 32. For this reason, when the connection connecting gear 91 rotates relative to the rotation base body 71, the operating portion 96 is moved according to the rotation direction of the connection connection gear 91 (that is, the rotation base body 71). The rotation base body 71 can be stopped and held by the resistance with which the first sliding contact portion 101 and the second sliding contact portion 107 are in contact with the elastic cover 38 until the first cover is switched to the first posture or the second posture. The rotation base body 71 can be prevented from rotating in a state where the posture of each movable member 81 is not switched. Further, the first sliding contact portion 101 of the embodiment is urged so that the first roller member 104 (large diameter roller 104a) is pressed against the elastic cover 38 by the elastic member 105. It is possible to effectively prevent the rotation base body 71 from being rotated in a state where the posture of each movable member 81 is not switched. Here, the first roller member 104 (first slidable contact portion 101) and the second roller member 109 (second slidable contact portion 107) are equally disposed on the outer peripheral edge portion of the rotation base body 71. Therefore, the balance when the rotation base body 71 is rotated can be kept even, and the vibration during the operation of the rotation base body 71 can be suppressed to realize a stable operation.

  The elastic member 105 urges the first roller member 104 (large diameter roller 104a) to the elastic cover 38, so that the first roller member 104 is moved to the elastic cover 38 when the rotation base body 71 rotates. The (large diameter roller 104a) always comes into contact, and the operational stability of the rotating base body 71 is improved. When the rotation base body 71 moves to the annular wall portion 36 (elastic cover 38) side of the support base body 32 due to vibration during operation of the rotation base body 71, the elastic member 105 is elastic. Accordingly, since the first roller member 104 comes into contact with the elastic cover 38 of the support base body 32, the force with which the roller member is pressed against the wall portion of the support base body 32 is reduced, and the first roller member 104 and the support base body are reduced. 32 (elastic cover 38) can be prevented from being worn. At this time, the guide shaft portion 103 that supports the first roller member 104 is rotated along a guide hole portion 76 provided so as to extend in the radial direction of the rotation base body 71 (direction intersecting the rotation direction). Since the elastic member 105 is elastically deformed, the guide shaft portion 103 moves in the direction of the rotation center of the rotary base body 71 along the guide hole portion 76. For this reason, when the elastic member 105 is elastically deformed, it is possible to prevent the first roller member 104 from being excessively pressed against the elastic cover 38 and to prevent the rotation operation of the rotation base body 71 from being hindered. In addition, wear of the first roller member 104 and the support base body 32 (elastic cover 38) can be suppressed.

  Further, when the rotary base body 71 rotates, only the large-diameter roller 104a (first roller member 104) in the first sliding contact portion 101 is always in contact with the elastic cover 38. Friction during operation of the body 71 can be reduced and smooth operation of the rotating base body 71 can be realized. On the other hand, when the rotation base body 71 moves close to the elastic cover 38 side along with the elastic deformation of the elastic member 105, the small-diameter roller 104b in the first sliding contact portion 101 also has the wall of the support base body 32. It comes to contact the part. Thereby, the rotation base body 71 itself can be prevented from coming into contact with the wall portion of the support base body 32, and the operation stability of the rotation base body 71 can be maintained. Further, since the pressure is dispersed when the large diameter roller 104a and the small diameter roller 104b come into contact with the elastic cover 38, the wear of the large diameter roller 104a, the small diameter roller 104b and the support base body 32 (elastic cover 38). Is suppressed.

  Further, when the rotary base body 71 moves close to the elastic cover 38 side with the elastic deformation of the elastic member 105, the second roller member 109 constituting the second sliding contact portion 107 is moved to the elastic cover 38. Since the rotation base body 71 is prevented from coming into contact with the elastic cover 38, the operational stability of the rotation base body 71 can be prevented from being impaired. Here, the second sliding contact portion 107 is configured such that the roller shaft portion 108 that supports the second roller member 109 is supported at a fixed position of the rotation base body 71, and the guide in the first sliding contact portion 101. It does not move like an axis. For this reason, when the second roller member 109 (second sliding contact portion 107) contacts the elastic cover 38, the movement of the rotary base body 71 toward the elastic cover 38 can be reliably restricted. . When the rotating base body 71 moves close to the elastic cover 38 side, not only the first roller member 104 (large diameter roller 104a and small diameter roller 104b) but also the second roller member 109 is elastic cover 38. By contacting the surface, the wear is further suppressed by the dispersion of pressure. Further, the second roller member 109 (second sliding contact portion 107) is disposed between the first roller members 104 (first sliding contact portion 101) adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction. Even if the rotation base body 71 is displaced toward the elastic cover 38 at the position, the rotation base body 71 can be stably supported.

(Example of change)
Note that the configuration of the gaming machine according to the present invention is not limited to that shown in the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made.

(1) In the embodiment, the structure in which the light emitter substrate on which the light emitter is mounted is detachably attached to the substrate holding portion (installation plate) provided in the movable effect device is not limited to this. The present invention can be applied to a light-emitting substrate disposed on a board, an installation member, and other components of a gaming machine.
(2) In the embodiment, the light emitter substrate is provided with a plurality of holding pieces, and the substrate holding portion is provided with a plurality of insertion grooves and variable restricting portions, but the light emitter substrate has at least one holding piece. May be formed on the light emitter substrate, and the number of insertion groove portions and variable restricting portions corresponding to the number of holding pieces formed may be formed on the substrate holding portion.
(3) In the embodiment, the elastic piece provided in the variable restricting portion is elastically deformed so that the engaging portion is displaced to the projecting position protruding from the installation surface and the retracted position retracted from the installation surface. For example, the engaging portion may be displaced to the protruding position and the retracted position by an elastic member such as a spring. That is, the variable restricting portion has a protruding position where a part thereof protrudes from the installation surface and engages with the holding piece of the light emitter substrate, and a retreat position where the engagement with the holding piece is released after retreating from the installation surface. It suffices if it is formed to be displaceable.
(4) In the embodiment, the variable restricting portion is detachably engaged with the holding piece of the light emitter substrate so that the light emitter substrate is detachably attached to the substrate holding portion. It can also be used as wiring holding means. That is, for example, as in the embodiment, the variable restricting portion 58 is provided so as to be positioned radially outward from the peripheral portion of the LED substrate 59 (specifically, the peripheral portion where the holding piece 59b is not formed) (FIG. 12). In the installation plate 53, a through-hole portion 122 through which the wiring 120 connected to the LED substrate 59 can be inserted is formed at a position corresponding to between the variable restricting portion 58 and the peripheral portion of the LED substrate 59 (see FIG. 26). Here, in the through hole portion 122, a gap formed between the end edge portion of the cutout portion 53 c formed in the installation plate 53 and the variable restricting portion 58 functions as the through hole portion 122. That is, according to this configuration, the wiring 120 can be guided to a predetermined position by inserting the wiring 120 through the through-hole portion 122 and holding the wiring 120 by the variable restriction portion 58. Further, since the variable restricting portion 58 is also used as the wiring holding means, it is not necessary to separately provide the wiring holding means, and the configuration can be simplified.
(5) In the embodiment, an annular rib is formed on the installation surface of the substrate holding portion, and the annular rib is configured to come into contact with a portion where the circuit pattern is not provided on the back surface of the light emitter substrate. The light emitter substrate may be in contact with the installation surface.
(6) In the embodiment, the through hole is formed in the central portion of the light emitter substrate, and the shaft support portion that can be fitted into the through hole is provided in the substrate holding portion. May be omitted.

(7) In the embodiment, the installation member is provided on the back side of the game board, but a configuration in which the installation member is installed in the middle frame as the main body frame can also be adopted.
(8) Although the game board is formed of plywood in the embodiment, the present invention is not limited to this, and the game board may be formed of a synthetic resin material in a transparent or opaque manner.
(9) In the embodiment, a pachinko machine has been described as an example of the gaming machine. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and various gaming machines such as an arrangement ball machine, a pinball machine, and a slot machine machine can be adopted.
