When the special ball receiving portion 12 is positioned directly above the special ball receiving portion while the game ball is held by the special ball receiving portion 12 that does not overlap the closing member 40, the game ball is discharged, but the specific ball receiving portion The game ball is not discharged when it is positioned directly above the special ball entry section 212 in a state where the game ball is held by the player 11.

  A shaft member 50 is fixed to the center of the back surface of the rotating body 10. The shaft member 50 has a front end fixed to the rotating body 10 and a rear end connected to the stepping motor 60. The closing member 40 is interposed between the center of the lower surface of the rotating body 10 and the shaft member 50, and the opening / closing member 30 and the base member 20 are interposed between the shaft member 50 and the stepping motor 60. ing. The shaft member 50 is connected to the rotating body 10 and the stepping motor 60 through a through hole formed in the center of these members. The rotating body 10 can be rotated by driving the stepping motor 60.

  The base member 20 includes a round tray-shaped rotating body support portion 21 that supports the rotating body 10. The annular side wall 216 of the rotating body support portion 21 surrounding the periphery is formed to be slightly larger than the outer periphery of the rotating body 10, and the rotating body 10 rotates inside the side wall 216. A part of the bottom of the rotating body support 21 has a fan-shaped depression H. The base member 20 is formed with a specific ball portion 211 formed of an opening having a size through which a game ball stopped at the specific ball receiving portion 11 can pass. On the outside of the recess H of the base member 20, a special ball entry portion 212 is formed that includes an opening having a size through which a game ball stopped on the special ball receiving portion 12 can pass.

  The specific entrance portion 211 is formed to be opened and closed by the opening / closing member 30. The opening / closing member 30 is a plate-like body in which a part of a sector shape is cut out. A support hole 31 that is a through hole is formed on the center side of the sector. When the support hole 31 is engaged with the opening / closing member support shaft 214 of the base member 20, the opening / closing member 30 is rotatably supported by the base member 20. Since the opening / closing member support shaft 214 is provided in the recess H of the base member 20, the inside of the recess H is a range in which the opening / closing member 30 can be rotated. That is, the opening / closing member 30 has a side surface on the other side of the depression H from the position where the one side surface contacts the side surface on the one side of the depression H (the position where the specific entrance ball 211 is closed). It can be rotated to a position in contact with the side surface (a position at which the specific entrance portion 211 is opened).

  A connecting shaft 32 that protrudes downward is formed on the back surface of the opening / closing member 30. The connecting shaft 32 is inserted through a guide hole 215 formed in the base member 20. The output portion 72 of the opening / closing member driving portion 70 is engaged with the connecting shaft 32 protruding from the back surface of the base member 20 by being inserted into the guide hole 215.

The opening / closing member 30 can open the specific entrance portion 211 by turning on the solenoid 71 to turn the opening / closing member 30 to the open state. When the game ball stopped at the specific ball receiving unit 11 comes to the upper part of the specific ball entering unit 211 in which the opening / closing member 30 is in the open state, the game ball is dropped and discharged by gravity. When the solenoid 71 of the opening / closing member 30 is turned off, the opening / closing member 30 is rotated to the original position, the specific ball portion 211 is closed, and the game ball stopped on the specific ball portion 211 is not discharged. Become.

  The special ball receiving unit 12 corresponds to a special entrance. The specific ball receiving unit 11 corresponds to a normal entrance. The base member 20, the closing member 40, and the opening / closing member 30 correspond to a stopping means that maintains the game medium in a stopped state.

  By rotating the rotating body 10 and stopping at a predetermined position, the ball receiving portion located immediately below the first ball receiving portion 841 is designated as the special ball receiving portion 12 or any of the specific ball receiving portions 11. You can choose what to do. A game ball falling from the first drop position 841 enters the special ball receiving unit 12 and is discharged from the special ball receiving unit 212, or enters the specific ball receiving unit 11 and is discharged from the specific ball receiving unit 211. It is possible to sort out which entry part to discharge. For this distribution, the stepping motor 60 may control the rotation and stop of the rotating body 10 so that the ball receiving portion desired to enter the ball is directly below the first drop opening. The rotating body 10 corresponds to a distribution unit that distributes game balls to either a special entrance or a normal entrance. Further, the stepping motor 60 corresponds to a distribution unit actuating means.

  The stepping motor 60 detects the position of the rotating body 10 in the rotational direction, and adjusts the timing at which the game ball is sent from the left ball outlet 831 or the right ball outlet 832 of the third communication passage 83. It is also possible to enter game balls into the target ball receiving portions 11 and 12.

  As shown in FIG. 7, in the rotating body 10, five specific ball receiving portions 11 are independent of one special ball receiving portion 11 (X) connected to the special ball receiving portion 12 and the special ball receiving portion 12. It consists of four specific ball receivers 11 (Y). The second drop port 852 is located substantially directly above the center of the rotating body 10. The four specific ball receiving portions 11 (Y) are formed so that the upper opening edge of the hole is located on the upper surface of the rotating body 10. Further, one of the five specific ball receiving portions 11 includes a specific ball receiving portion 11 (X) and a special ball receiving portion 12, each having a recess 14 whose opening edge on the upper side of the hole is recessed from the upper surface of the rotating body 10. It is formed so as to be located on the bottom surface.

  The concave portion 14 is formed in a straight line that divides the rotating body 10 through the center of the rotating body 10, and the special ball receiving portion 12 is specified at one end portion thereof and the other end portion is specified. A ball receiving portion 11X is formed. The game ball dropped from the second drop opening 851 falls to the center of the recess 14 formed in the rotating body 10. The game ball that has fallen into the recess enters the specific ball receiving unit 11 (X) or the special ball receiving unit 12.

  Therefore, the game ball that has entered the recess 14 always enters one of the specific ball receiving unit 11 (X) and the special ball receiving unit 12. Whether the game ball is dropped into the specific ball receiving unit 11 or the special ball receiving unit 12 via the second drop opening 851 and the game ball is inserted into the special ball entering unit 212 or the specific ball receiving unit 211. It is also possible to sort.

  The counting switch 110 is fixed to the back side of the base member 10. The counting switch 110 can detect a game ball stopped at the ball receiving unit 11. By counting while rotating the rotating body 10 with the stepping motor 60, it is possible to detect a game ball that has passed over the counting switch 110. A signal that has detected a game ball by the counting switch 110 is sent to the sub-control board 942, and the number of game balls that are stopped at the specific ball receiving unit 11 is counted by adding the detected number.

  The sub-control board 942 is connected to the solenoid 71 of the opening / closing member driving unit 70, and when the total number of the game balls reaches a predetermined number within a predetermined number, the sub-control board 942 is connected to the specific ball receiving unit 11 by the discharging means. It is possible to discharge the parked game balls.

  FIGS. 9A and 9B are explanatory views for explaining the operation of the rotating body effect device. For example, as shown in FIG. 9, five specific ball receiving portions 11 of the rotating body 10 are provided. When the counting switch counts that the game ball has entered the five specific ball receiving portions 11, the open / close member is opened to rotate the rotating body, The game balls of the receiving unit 11 are discharged sequentially. As described above, the predetermined number can be the number of all the specific ball receiving portions 11. The predetermined number within the predetermined number can be the number of the specific ball receiving portions 11. By setting in this way, it is possible to prevent the game ball from being discharged into the special ball receiving unit when the game ball is full in the specific ball receiving unit 11.

  When it is set so that the game ball is not discharged to the special pitching portion 211 by the control board, as shown in FIG. 9A, if the specific ball receiving portion 11 becomes full, When the game ball is sent to the rotating body 10, the game ball enters the special ball receiving unit 12. When the ball enters the special ball receiving unit 12, it is discharged from the special ball receiving unit 212. However, as described above, the game balls of the specific ball receiving unit are discharged by the discharge unit, so that the possibility that the game balls are discharged from the special ball entering unit 212 can be reduced.

  Whether the entrance part of the game ball introduced into the rotating body 10 is the special entrance part 212 or the specific entrance part 211 is determined by a control board such as a main control board 941 and a sub control board 942 of the gaming machine. It is set by. Hereinafter, control of the gaming machine will be described.

  For example, when a predetermined condition is satisfied, the main control board 941 as a special game determination unit determines whether or not to execute a special game advantageous to the player. If it is determined that the special game is to be executed, a special game execution command is transmitted to the sub-control board 942. The sub-control board 942 controls the stepping motor 60 to stop the rotating body 10 at a predetermined position so that the special ball receiving portion 12 of the rotating body 10 stops at a position directly below the first drop port 841. The game ball is dropped onto the special ball receiving unit 12 and discharged from the special ball receiving unit 212.

  Further, the sub-control board 942 transmits a notification execution command for displaying that the special game is executed on the display unit of the display device 92. When receiving the notification execution command, the effect control board 943 displays on the display device 92 to notify the player that the special game is being executed. Performing a display for notifying the execution of the special game on the display device 92 is executing the special game notification means.

  After displaying that the special game is executed on the display device 92, the special game is executed. This special game is a form of granting a privilege. Execution of the special game includes entering a probability variation state (probability variation state) after the jackpot game is finished, entering a so-called time shortening state (time-short state) after the jackpot game is finished, and the like. That is, the “privilege” is given to be in a gaming state advantageous to the player.

  The special game notification means is various means such as image display, light, and sound for enabling the player to recognize. For example, the execution of the special game notification means includes, for example, displaying an image or the like that allows the player to recognize that the special game state is executed on the display device.

  Whether or not the special gaming state is executed is determined in advance by an internal lottery by the control means. For example, when entering a special game state, etc., the game balls stored in the storage means (in this embodiment, three + three, a total of six) are discharged one by one, and one specific ball receiver 11 The specific ball receiving unit 11 is stopped. Thereafter, one game ball stored by the storage means is discharged, and the game ball is entered into the specific ball receiving unit 11 where the game ball is not stopped, and the specific ball receiving unit 11 is stopped. Of the remaining four game balls, three game balls are also placed in the remaining specific ball receiving section 11 in order as described above to be in a stopped state, and the last one remaining game ball stored in the storage means is specially designated. It is set to enter the ball receiving unit 12. In the present embodiment, three are initially stored and discharged one by one, and thereafter, when the number becomes zero, three are stored again and discharged one by one. As a result, a total of six are stored.

  On the other hand, if the determination result by the internal lottery of the main control board 941 indicates that the special game is not executed, such as when the special game state is not entered, the game balls stored in the storage means (in this embodiment, , Three + three, a total of six), one by one, and enter one specific ball receiving unit 11 to be stopped at the specific ball receiving unit 11. Thereafter, one game ball stored by the stopping means is discharged, and the game ball is entered into the specific ball receiving unit 11 where the game ball is not stopped, and the specific ball receiving unit 11 is stopped. Of the remaining four game balls, three game balls are sequentially placed in the remaining specific ball receiving units 11 in the same manner as described above, and then stopped, and thereafter, the game balls stopped at the five specific ball receiving units 11 The last remaining one game ball stored in the storage means is not allowed to enter the special ball receiving unit 12 and is released into the specific ball receiving unit 11 that is empty and not in a stopped state. To enter and discharge. In the present embodiment, three are initially stored and discharged one by one, and thereafter, when the number becomes zero, three are stored again and discharged one by one. As a result, a total of six are stored.

  In this case, the main control board 941 transmits a command not to execute the special game to the sub-control board 942. The sub-control board 942 controls the stepping motor 60 to stop the rotating body 10 at a predetermined position so that the specific ball receiving portion 11 of the rotating body 10 stops at a position directly below the first drop port 941. . The game ball is allowed to pass through guide passages such as the first communication passage, the second communication passage, and the third communication passage, and the game ball is dropped from the first drop port 841 to the specific ball receiving portion 11. The rotating body 10 is rotated in a state in which the game ball is stopped at the specific ball receiving unit 11, and when it comes over the specific ball entering unit 211, the opening / closing device is opened, and the stopped game ball is placed in the specific ball entering unit 211. To drain.

  That is, when it is determined that the main control board 941 does not execute the special game, the sub control board 942 sets the game ball so that the game ball does not enter the special ball receiving unit 12. The game ball is not discharged from the special ball receiving unit 212 unless it enters the special ball receiving unit 12. And the sub-control board 941 does not execute the special game notification means, does not give a privilege, and does not execute the special game.

  When the main control board 941 does not execute the special game and the sub-control board 942 determines that the game ball does not enter the special ball receiving unit 12, five game balls are stopped at the specific ball receiving unit 11. If it is counted, the opening / closing member 30 is driven to open the specific ball entry section 212, and all the game balls that are stopped are discharged while the rotating body 10 is rotated. Thereafter, the remaining one game ball is entered into the specific ball receiving unit 11 and discharged.

  In this embodiment, when the number of game media stopped in the stop portion is the same as the total number of recesses in the stop portion, the stopped game media is discharged. The timing at which the game medium is discharged can be set to an arbitrary number as long as it is less than or equal to the total number of recesses in the stopping portion.

  In this embodiment, the counting switch is fixed to the base member and is configured to count the number of game media by rotating the rotating body, but the rotation of the rotating body is stopped and the counting switch side is rotated. Thus, the number of game media in the stopping part may be counted. In this embodiment, an effect is given as to whether or not a privilege is granted during the jackpot (during the round), but for example, a privilege is granted during an interval period after the jackpot game is over until the next change begins. You may perform whether or not to do.

  Further, in this embodiment, a special entrance and a normal entrance are provided along the circumferential direction of the rotating body so as to rotate the rotating body. The moving body may be moved in various directions, and may have a configuration in which a plurality of special entrances and normal entrances are provided at various positions in various arrangements such as series and parallel along the moving body.

  Further, in this embodiment, one opening / closing member and a discharge hole are provided, and the rotating medium is rotated to discharge the game media that are normally stopped at the winning prize opening one by one. An opening / closing member and a discharge hole may be provided at the normal entrance, and each opening / closing member may be opened to discharge the game medium stopped at the normal entrance through the exit hole.

  In addition, when it is determined that the privilege is not granted, it is configured to discharge all the game media stopped at the normal winning slot after discharging the remaining one game medium into any normal outlet, for example, A configuration may be adopted in which only at least one of the game media stopped at the normal entrance is discharged to make it empty, and the remaining one game medium is discharged from the normal entrance that has become empty. Further, at least one special entrance and one normal entrance may be provided.

  It should be noted that “whether or not to grant a privilege” in the present invention refers to, for example, a certain change or a short time after the end of a certain jackpot, regardless of whether or not a privilege is granted, as in this embodiment. After the notification of the configuration such as whether or not to add or whether or not the privilege is given by the notification means during the jackpot, if the jackpot is continuously executed (the privilege is granted), it is not continued (privilege) The configuration etc. are not included. As used herein, the term “does not continue” means that the big prize opening is not opened at all and the jackpot ends, or that the big prize opening opens and closes at high speed and the game ball does not enter or is difficult. Including. That is, it is included that it is more difficult to give a privilege than when a privilege is given.

  Specifically, for example, when a jackpot game enters a predetermined round, it is defined as “granting a bonus” that the jackpot game continues in the next round, and the bonus game ends in the predetermined round. It may be set as “not giving”. In other words, after a jackpot game of a predetermined length ends, the bonus game continues as “granting a privilege”, and when the jackpot game of a predetermined length ends, the bonus game ends. May be set as When it is determined by the determining means (main control board 941) that the privilege is given, the privilege giving means (main control board 941) sets the jackpot game to continue even if the jackpot game of a predetermined length ends. For example, in the case where a plurality of jackpot game lengths (number of jackpot rounds) are set in advance, the jackpot game is continued for a long time so that the player does not know the length of the jackpot game. It can be used for effects such as entertaining a jackpot game while expecting the player.

  The end of the jackpot game here is not only a state in which the winning opening (the winning opening 80 or the large winning opening 932) is not opened at all after the predetermined round is ended, and the winning opening is high speed. Opening and closing operation to enter a state in which the game ball is difficult to enter (a state in which it is more difficult to enter the game ball into the winning opening than when the big hit game is continued). In other words, the case where the jackpot game is considered to have ended substantially where a large amount of game balls cannot be acquired is also included in the “end of jackpot game”.

  In addition, it is possible to set as a “privilege” the fact that a jackpot game is executed (winning a jackpot).
