Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a game machine capable of reducing an effect exerted on surrounding games even while executing effective sound reporting and light-emitting reporting when opening a design frame or a front frame.SOLUTION: Alarm sound outputted by detecting an open state of a design frame or a front frame is configured to reduce an output sound volume stepwise, and is muted after 30 seconds from output start. When a closed state is detected, the alarm sound is completed when the alarm sound is being outputted, and frame closing sound is outputted for five seconds. Alarm light is continuously outputted from detection of an open state to a lapse of 180 seconds after detection of a closed state.

Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine that includes a gaming frame that is openable and closable with respect to an outer frame, and that performs error notification when the gaming frame is opened.

  The current pachinko machine is equipped with a function for detecting various errors, and detects an error related to power-on, a large prize opening abnormal winning error, a board surface error, a door opening error, and the like. It also has a function for notifying different contents for each type of error in response to detection of various errors. In addition, the error notification is executed according to the priority set for each type of error.

  The minimum time (period) to be notified is defined as different notification contents for each type of error. In the case of a door opening error, there is also an invention in which a door opening error notification is executed from detection of door opening (non-detection of door closing), and alarm sound is continuously output until detection of door closing (non-detection of door opening). Has been made. <Patent Document 1>

  Furthermore, when outputting such warning sound, it is difficult to hear the warning sound if it is output at the same time as the game sound. Therefore, an invention has been made to reduce the volume of the game sound and output the warning sound as the maximum volume. Yes. <Patent Document 2>

  In most gaming machines, opening a door or frame is closely related to fraudulent acts such as attaching illegal boards or bending game nails to increase the winning rate. Is output outside the machine (hall computer). Therefore, even if the warning sound due to the door opening error notification is not output, the gaming facility can grasp the opening of the door or the frame, so the door opening error notification aims at a deterrent effect to those who perform fraud. It ’s just something.

  In addition, there are many gaming facilities in which the gaming facility staff judges opening of the door or the frame by using a communication means such as an income or the like to notify the administrator, etc.

  However, even if the employee opens the door or frame using a key, the administrator only knows that the door is properly open, and the gaming machine issues a door opening error notification. There is a problem that a player who is playing with a surrounding game machine is uncomfortable because he or she is prevented from gaining interest by the production by the warning sound having a large output.

  In view of the above problems, the present invention has an object to provide a gaming machine capable of reducing the influence on surrounding games while performing effective warning notification when a door or a frame is opened. And

The gaming machine according to claim 1 is:
Frame closing detection means for detecting closing of the frame,
An unauthorized output means for outputting a frame opening signal to the outside of the machine on the condition that the closing of the frame body is not detected by the frame closing detection means;
A fraud notification means for executing a frame opening notification on the condition that the closing of the frame body is not detected by the frame closing detection means,
The fraud notification means includes a fraud sound notification means for outputting a warning sound and a fraud light notification means for outputting a warning light emission.

The unauthorized sound notification means is configured to reduce the output volume of the warning sound step by step from the execution of the notification, and mute after a predetermined time,
On the condition that the closing of the frame is detected by the frame closing detection means, the warning sound output by the unauthorized sound notification means is terminated, and the warning light output by the unauthorized light notification means is output after a predetermined time has elapsed from the detection. Exit,
A closing sound output means for outputting a special sound for a predetermined time, regardless of whether or not the notification by the unauthorized sound notification means is performed or when there is a warning volume when the frame closing detection is detected by the frame closing detection means; It is a gaming machine characterized by having it.

  The frame closing detection means for detecting the closing of the frame body may be configured to be able to determine closing and opening for each of a plurality of frame bodies constituting the gaming machine, and an on signal from a switch constituting the frame closing detection means is received. When it is detected, it may be determined as a closed state, and when an ON signal is not detected, it may be determined as an open state.

  The plurality of frames constituting the gaming machine may be, for example, a design frame that holds a glass plate that forms a part of the game area, or a front frame that is hinged to the outer frame so as to be opened and closed. In addition, it is preferable to determine that the signal in the closed state is at a high level and the signal at a low level is in an open state, but the reverse signal pattern may be used.

  In addition, when the detection switch detects an opening signal of only a few ms, for example, due to deformation of the material constituting the frame, it is not determined that the frame is open, and the opening signal is received continuously for a predetermined time. In such a case, a configuration in which it is determined that the frame has been released is preferable.

  Output of the frame opening signal to the outside of the machine by the unauthorized output means is not limited as long as the signal is output to a device other than the device provided in the gaming machine. For example, a so-called hall computer whose output destination is provided in the gaming facility may be used. An indicator provided above the gaming machine may be used.

  The configuration in which the unauthorized sound notification unit gradually decreases the output volume of the warning sound may be a configuration in which the volume is reduced from the start of output when a predetermined time has elapsed, and the predetermined time is After output at a constant volume, it may be output again at a constant volume smaller than the constant volume, and the volume may be reduced while repeating this, or the volume decreases linearly over time It is good. In addition, the configuration in which the unauthorized sound notification means silences after a lapse of a predetermined time is a configuration in which a state in which the notification processing is executed but no sound is output occurs after the lapse of the predetermined time.

The gaming machine according to claim 2 is:
Frame closing detection means for detecting closing of the frame,
An unauthorized output means for outputting a frame opening signal to the outside of the machine on the condition that the closing of the frame body is not detected by the frame closing detection means;
A fraud notification means for executing a frame opening notification on the condition that the closing of the frame body is not detected by the frame closing detection means,

On the condition that the closing of the frame is detected by the frame closing detection means, the warning sound output by the unauthorized sound notification means is terminated, and the warning light output by the unauthorized light notification means is output after a predetermined time has elapsed from the detection. Exit,
When the frame closing detection means detects the closing of the frame, only when the execution of the notification by the unauthorized sound notification means ends or the output volume of the warning sound by the unauthorized sound notification means is equal to or lower than a predetermined volume, A gaming machine comprising a closing sound output means for outputting a special sound for a predetermined time.

  The configuration in which the unauthorized sound notification means ends after the lapse of the predetermined time indicates that the output of the notification sound is ended by not performing (ending) the notification processing by the unauthorized sound notification means after the lapse of the predetermined time. ing.

  The warning sound output volume by the unauthorized sound notification means is equal to or lower than the predetermined volume. Since the unauthorized sound notification means is configured to reduce the output volume of the warning sound step by step from the execution of the notification, the elapsed time from the start of notification execution May be less than or equal to a predetermined time.

  According to the ball and ball game machine according to claim 1, there is a case in which a false alarm may occur due to a deformation of a resin constituting the hinge or the frame, etc., about the opening of the design frame (door) and the frame opening. By terminating the output, it is possible to notify the surrounding players or game hall staff of the occurrence of the door / frame opening by continuing the output of the light emission notification while minimizing the influence on others due to the false alarm. Furthermore, even in a situation where the notification is performed by gradually reducing the volume of the sound notification, there is an effect of reducing the influence on others that interferes with the game. Also, by outputting a special sound when the closing of the frame is detected, it is possible to check whether the frame has been closed by changing the notification mode, and it is easy to determine whether the error state has been resolved. There is an effect.

  According to the bullet ball game machine of the second aspect, there is a case where a false alarm may occur due to a deformation of the resin constituting the hinge or the frame, etc., about the opening of the design frame (door) and the frame opening. By terminating the output, it is possible to notify the surrounding players or game hall staff of the occurrence of the door / frame opening by continuing the output of the light emission notification while minimizing the influence on others due to the false alarm. Furthermore, even in a situation where the notification is performed by gradually reducing the volume of the sound notification, there is an effect of reducing the influence on others that interferes with the game. Also, when there is no change in the sound notification mode or when it is difficult to recognize the change in the sound notification mode when the closing of the frame is detected (for example, when the warning sound is not output or the volume of the warning sound is low). By outputting the special voice only, it is possible to confirm whether or not it is closed by changing the notification mode, and it is easy to determine whether the error state has been eliminated. Furthermore, since a useless sound output process is not performed, the processing load can be reduced.

And are connected. A payout motor 24 a for paying out game balls to the upper plate is connected to the output end of the payout control device 51 via the back wiring relay terminal plate 63 and the payout relay terminal plate 66.

  The payout control device 51 includes electrical components such as a CPU, a ROM, and a RAM. The payout control device 51 performs processing by the CPU according to a program stored in the mounted ROM, and is input from various detection signals that are input and from the main control device 50. Based on the command, various commands relating to payout of the game ball are generated and output to the main controller 50 and the launch controller 52. Here, the payout control device 51 and the main control device 50 are configured as a bidirectional communication circuit, and the payout control device 51 and the launch control device 52 are configured as a one-way communication circuit from the payout control device 51 to the launch control device 52. Has been.

  Connected to the input end of the firing control device 52 are a firing stop switch 19a for stopping firing and a touch switch 20a for detecting that the player is touching the firing handle 17. A launch motor 36 for launching a game ball to the game area 26 is connected to the output end of the launch control device 52. The firing control device 52 does not include a CPU, ROM, or RAM, and is a digital circuit composed of an IC or the like. The firing control device 52 controls driving of the firing motor 36 based on various detection signals inputted and inputs from the payout control device 51. ing.

  A game switch 14 a that can be operated by a player is connected to an input terminal of the sub-integrating device 53. Various LED / lamps 37 provided in the design frames 4 a and 4 b and the game board 8 and the speakers 10 provided in the front frame 3 and the speaker unit 21 are connected to the output end of the sub-integrating device 53. The sub integration device 53 and the main control device 50 are configured as a one-way communication circuit from the main control device 50 to the sub integration device 53 via the production relay terminal board 65 between the sub integration device 53 and the production symbol control. The device 54a is configured as a one-way communication circuit from the sub-integrating device 53 to the effect symbol control device 54a.

  The sub-integrating device 53 includes electrical components such as a CPU, a ROM, and a RAM. The sub-integrating device 53 executes processing by the CPU according to a program stored in the mounted ROM, and is input from the input of the game switch 14a and the main control device 50. Various commands related to effects are generated based on the input command, and are output to the effect symbol control device 54 a of the effect symbol unit 54. In the present embodiment, the game information stored in the RAM of the sub-integrating device 53 is not retained when the power is cut off. However, the VBB is supplied from the power device 55 so that the memory can be retained, and the game stored when the power is restored. There is no problem even if the game is restarted before the power is cut off based on the information.

  Further, the sub integration device 53 is provided with a volume adjustment switch 10a for adjusting the volume, detects the state (position) of the volume adjustment switch 10a, determines the detection result and the content to be transmitted to the speaker 10, and determines the speaker. 10 is configured to control the volume of sound output from 10 in a software manner. For example, the production voice and the part of the error notification (such as front frame 3 and design frame 4a, 4b frame open / close notification, etc.) are accompanied by a volume changed according to the state of the volume control switch 10a. Other error notifications (such as special notifications) output from the speaker 10 can be configured to be output from the speaker 10 at a preset volume regardless of the state of the volume control switch 10a.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 5, the notification content by sound and light performed when the design frames 4a and 4b and the front frame 3 are opened will be described. The same opening notification is performed regardless of which of the design frames 4a, 4b and the front frame 3 is in an open state. Sound notification at the time of opening (when the closed state is not detected) is performed until the closed state is detected within 30 seconds or 30 seconds from the detection of the open state. The notification sound is silenced by repeating the warning sound and warning sound “open the door” for 5 seconds up to 6 times. The light notification at the time of opening repeats warning blinking in which a plurality of LEDs, which are light emitting members provided on the front frame 3, blink at the same cycle.

  In this embodiment, the notification is performed even when the frame is closed. When the closed state is detected, the sound notification at the time of closing outputs a voice “confirmed that the door is closed” and a confirmation sound for 5 seconds. In the light notification, the warning light emission mode that starts outputting from the time of opening (when the closed state is not detected) is continued and extinguished until 180 seconds elapse after the closed state is detected.

  Further, in this embodiment, it is highly likely that a malicious fraud such as opening the design frames 4a, 4b or the front frame 3 and attaching an unauthorized part to the gaming machine or bending a game nail is performed. When the situation is detected and the situation is detected, the configuration is configured such that a fraud notification in a form more severe than the design frame / front frame release notification is performed. The notification content of the sound information for the unauthorized notification continues when the unauthorized state is detected and the unauthorized notification is started until the gaming staff turns off the power to the gaming machine. Note that the RAM is cleared when the power is turned on to return from the unauthorized notification state to the normal state.

  Sound notification at the time of fraud is repeated by repeating a sound of a tone different from the opening notification voice that “the door has been opened” and a violent warning sound. However, the warning flashing is repeatedly performed at a cycle shorter than the design frame / front frame open notification light emission.

  Next, the frame opening detection process executed by the main controller 50 will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. This frame open detection process determines the open / closed state of the front frame 3, the design frame 4a, and the design frame 4b based on signals received from the front frame close switch 38, the design frame close switch 39a, and the design frame close switch 39b. When it is in the open state, a signal indicating the open state is transmitted to the hall computer, and an instruction signal for causing the gaming machine itself to perform the open notification is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 53.

  When the frame opening detection process is started, it is determined whether or not the design frame closing signal from the design frame closing switches 39a and 39b periodically input by the clock circuit every predetermined time (every 2 ms or 4 ms) is OFF (S100). . If the determination is affirmative (S100: YES), it is determined whether or not the OFF state has continued for 10 consecutive times by reading the signal every 2 ms (S110). If the determination is negative (S110: NO), the determination of S100 is performed again. If an ON signal is inputted periodically (every 2 ms or 4 ms) from the design frame closing switches 39a and 39b, it indicates that the design frames 4a and 4b are in a closed state. There is a possibility that the input signal is turned off several times even in the closed state. Therefore, in order to eliminate false alarms due to such a state, the detection of the state where the frame is surely opened is detected by setting the detection of the off signal 10 times continuously as the condition for detecting the frame opening. Note that the condition of 10 consecutive times is merely an example, and is not limited to this condition, and may be longer or shorter than this number of times (time).

  If S100 is negative (S100: NO), the same determination process as S100 and S110 is performed on the input signal from the front frame closing switch 38 (S120 and S130). If S120 is negative (S120: NO), return is returned, and if S110 or S130 is affirmative (S110: YES, S130: YES), it is determined that one of the design frames 4a, 4b, or the front frame 3 is in an open state. Then, 1 is set to the frame release notification flag (S140). The frame release notification flag is a value stored in the main controller 50. If the value of the frame release notification flag is 1, it is determined that one of the design frames 4a and 4b and the front frame 3 is in the open state. If the value of the open notification flag is 0, it is a value for main controller 50 to determine that all are closed.

  Subsequent to S140, time measurement is started by setting a fraud detection timer (S150), a frame opening signal is output to the hall computer (S160), and a frame opening notification signal is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 53 ( S170) Return to return. The fraud detection timer set in S150 is a process for starting the measurement of time as a condition for detecting the above-described malicious fraud. Note that the frame opening signal output processing in S160 is a configuration in which a signal is continuously output while the closing switch is off, and the output is terminated when the closing switch is turned on. The frame opening signal output processing in S160 is processing corresponding to the unauthorized output means for outputting the frame opening signal in the present invention to the outside of the apparatus.

  Next, the frame closing confirmation process executed by the main controller 50 will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. When the frame closing confirmation process is started, it is determined whether or not the frame opening notification flag is 1 (S210). If the determination is negative (S210: NO), the process returns to the return. If the determination is affirmative (S210: YES), the design frame closing switch 39a, Based on the input of the ON signal from 39b, it is determined whether or not the design frames 4a and 4b are in the closed state (S220). If the determination is negative (S220: NO), the process returns to the return. If the determination is affirmative (S220: YES), it is determined whether or not the front frame 3 is closed based on the input of the ON signal from the front frame closing switch 38 (S230). If the determination is negative (S230: NO), the process returns to the return. If the determination is affirmative (S230: YES), it is determined whether or not the measurement value of the fraud detection timer that started the measurement in S150 is greater than 2000 ms (S240).

  If S240 is affirmative (S240: YES), it is determined that the frame has been normally closed regardless of fraud, and a frame closing signal is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 53 (S250). The output of the frame opening signal that is set to 0 and started transmission in S160 is ended (S260), and the illegal counter is reset (S310).

  If S240 is negative (S240: NO), it is determined that the frame closing related to the fraudulent act has been executed, and an increment process of adding 1 to the fraud counter is performed (S270), and it is determined whether or not the value of the fraud counter is 2 ( S280). If the determination is affirmative (S280: YES), it is determined that fraud is being performed, the fraud detection flag is set to 1 (S290), and a fraud notification signal is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 53 (S300). Following the negative determination in S280 (S280: NO) or the processing in S300 and S310, the fraud detection timer is cleared (S320) and the process returns to the return.

  The execution of the malicious act described above is determined by the processes from negative determination in S240 to S270 and S280, and what kind of situation is specifically determined will be described. When executing the above-described malicious fraud, the design frames 4a and 4b or the front frame 3 are opened using some method. After opening the door, unauthorized parts are attached or the game nail is deformed. If the design frame closing switches 39a, 39b or the front frame switch 38 are left unattended during the operation, the frame opening notification (the output to the outside of the machine is also possible). Therefore, immediately after opening the frame, hold the closing switch by hand, turn the closing switch on, disguise the frame closing state, and mount illegal parts. If it is a regular opening of the game hall staff, the time from opening to closing will take at least 2 seconds for confirmation work, but in the above fraudulent act, the closing switch is hand-operated immediately after opening. Therefore, the time from when the closing switch is turned off (frame open) to when it is turned on (frame closed) is shorter than 2 seconds.

  Further, when the operation of opening the frame and attaching an unauthorized part or deforming the game nail is completed, the frame is closed and the illegal game is started in the reverse procedure to the case of opening. Specifically, after removing the hand holding the closing switch, the frame is quickly closed and an illegal game is started. Therefore, when the off-on operation (frame opening / closing operation) of the closing switch for a short time is continued twice, it can be determined that there is an extremely high possibility that a malicious fraud is being performed. Note that 2000 ms, which is the determination condition in S240, is merely a value as an example, and is not limited to this value, and may be longer or shorter.

  In this embodiment, when the opening of the design frames 4a, 4b or the front frame 3 is detected (S110: YES, S130: YES), 1 is set in the frame opening notification flag, and the frame computer continuously outputs the frame opening signal. When the sub-integrated control device 53 receives the frame opening notification signal, the gaming machine starts the frame opening notification by sound and light. This is performed in the frame opening detection process in detail from the detection of the frame opening. Even if a frame closing is detected in less than 2 seconds from the set of the fraud detection timer (S220: YES, S230: YES), the frame opening notification flag is not reset (set to 0), so the gaming machine continues the frame opening notification. It has a configuration. Therefore, the game machine performs sound and light frame opening notification while performing operations to open the frame and mount unauthorized parts or deform the game nail, and a short frame opening / closing operation is detected again at the end of the operation. At this time, the frame opening notification is terminated, and the fraud notification that is a more intense sound and light mode than the frame opening notification is started. As a result, since it is difficult to carry out malicious cheating, the deterrent to prevent cheating is increased. When the gaming machine starts fraud notification, the fraud notification mode continues until the game staff is turned off. In addition, in order to avoid frequent false detections due to noise and vibrations, hall computers that can be set to only determine that the frame is open only when a frame open signal is received for a predetermined time or longer are also used for sound and light output in an unauthorized notification mode. Can respond.

  Next, the frame opening notification signal reception process 1 executed by the sub integrated control device 53 will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. The frame opening notification signal reception process 1 is a process that constitutes an unauthorized notification means including an unauthorized sound notification means and an unauthorized light notification means in the present invention. When the frame opening notification signal reception process 1 is started, it is determined whether or not a frame opening notification signal is received (S410). If the determination is negative (S410: NO), the process returns to the return. If the determination is affirmative (S410: YES), the frame opening notification execution flag is set to 1 (S420), and the frame opening notification sound output processing is shown in FIG. The sequence for executing the notification sound output and the sequence for executing the warning light emission output by the frame opening notification light output processing are started (S430, S440), and the process returns to the return.

  The contents of the frame opening notification sound will be described with reference to FIG. When the sequence for outputting the frame opening notification sound is started in S430, the maximum output volume is maintained for 5.0 seconds, and the sound “warning is open” and the warning sound are output. After 5.0 seconds, the output volume is reduced, and the warning volume and the warning sound are output again for 5.0 seconds while maintaining the output volume. Thereafter, as shown in (1) a, until 30 seconds have passed since the start of the notification sound output, the sound volume is reduced and maintained for 5.0 seconds to output a warning sound and a warning sound. Therefore, every time 5.0 seconds of (A) is output once, the volume is reduced and a total of 6 times of (A) is output. This configuration corresponds to the unauthorized sound notification means in the present invention, which reduces the output volume of the warning sound step by step from the execution of the notification.

  Further, a configuration may be adopted in which a volume that is reduced from the volume at the start of output is output after the elapse of a predetermined time from the start of output of the open notification sound. A configuration in which the output volume is reduced linearly can be considered. However, since the volume may change to a volume that is difficult to hear in the middle of a group of warning voices (A), a configuration in which (A) is output while maintaining the same volume is suitable, and the effect of making the warning content easier to understand. Demonstrate. Note that the release notification sound is muted when 30 seconds have elapsed since the start of the output of the release notification sound, but the output processing of the release notification sound continues with the output volume 0 maintained.

  When the sequence for outputting the frame opening notification light is started in S440, as described with reference to FIG. 5, the LEDs provided in the front frame 3 repeatedly blink in the same cycle, and the frame closing signal reception process 1 described later is triggered. The operation is continued until 180 seconds have elapsed since the frame closing signal was received. Moreover, it is good also as a structure which blinks together with LED provided in the game area | region, and the structure which displays a warning on the effect symbol display apparatus 54b is also considered.

  Next, the frame closing signal reception process 1 performed by the sub integrated control device 53 will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. When the frame closing signal reception process 1 is started, it is determined whether a frame closing signal is received from the main control device 50 (S250) (S510). If the determination is negative (S510: NO), the process returns to the return. If the determination is affirmative (S510: YES), it is determined whether the fraud notification flag is 0 (S520). The fraud notification flag is a flag that is set when the sub integrated control device 53 receives a fraud notification signal from the main control device 50. If the value of the fraud notification flag is 0, it means that the fraud notification is not being executed. If the value of the notification flag is 1, it is a value at which the sub integrated control device 53 determines that the fraud notification that is preferentially performed in a more severe manner than the frame release notification is being executed.

  If the determination in S520 is negative, that is, fraud notification is being executed (S520: NO), the process returns to the return, and if the determination is affirmative (S520: YES), the frame opening notification sound output process started in S430 is terminated (S530). The frame closing sound described with reference to FIG. 5 is output (S540), the frame opening notification light end timer is set (S550), the frame opening notification execution flag is set to 0 (S560), and the process returns. Exit. Note that the frame closing sound output processing of S540 corresponds to the closing sound output means for outputting a special sound for a predetermined time regardless of whether or not the notification by the fraud notification means is performed or whether there is a warning volume in the present invention.

  At the end of the frame opening notification sound output processing of S530, whether or not the frame opening notification sound is being output by ending the frame opening notification sound output processing that is being executed regardless of whether or not the frame opening notification sound is being output. If the output is completed, the process ends. According to the processing of S530 and S540, when the frame closing detection means detects the closing of the frame body in claim 3 of the present invention, regardless of whether the notification by the unauthorized sound notification means is performed or whether there is a warning volume. The closing sound output means for outputting a special sound for a predetermined time is provided.

  The frame opening notification light end timer set in S550 is a timer for measuring the time until the frame opening notification light is ended. When the timer that has started the measurement from this point reaches 180 seconds, the frame opening notification light output process is performed. To finish the notification by light. There is no problem with a configuration in which 180 seconds are set when the timer is set and the frame opening notification light output processing is terminated when the time becomes 0 seconds. Note that this configuration corresponds to, in the present invention, the warning light emission output by the unauthorized light notification means is terminated after a predetermined time has elapsed since the detection of the frame closing by the frame closing detection means. .

  Next, the fraud notification signal reception process executed by the sub integrated control device 53 will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. When the fraud notification signal reception process is started, it is determined whether or not a fraud notification signal is received from the main control device 50 (S300) (S610). If the determination is negative (S610: NO), the process returns to the return. If the determination is affirmative (S610: YES), the output of the frame open notification sound and the output of the frame open notification light are terminated (S620, S630), and the fraud notification flag is set. 1 is set (S640). Next, output of the fraud notification sound and fraud notification light described with reference to FIG. 5 is started (S650, S660), and the process returns to the return.

  The unauthorized notification sound that starts to be output in the process of S650 is fixed at the maximum volume as shown in FIG. 11 (1) b, and the power of the gaming machine is cut off by the game hall staff with the sound output having the contents shown in FIG. Until this time, it continues with the fraud notification light whose output is started in S660.

  Next, using the timing chart shown in FIG. 12, the frame opening notification sound output processing and the actual frame opening notification sound output and frame according to the ON / OFF state of the design frame closing switches 39a and 39b or the front frame closing switch 38 The relationship between the opening notification light output process and the actual frame opening notification light output will be described.

  If the normal game is in progress, the design frame closing switch 39a, 39b or the front frame closing switch 38 is kept on, but when it is in the off state, that is, the main controller 50 has the design frames 4a, 4b, or When it is determined that the front frame 3 is opened, a frame open notification signal is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 53, and the sub integrated control device 53 that has received the signal starts frame open notification sound output processing and frame open notification light output processing. Then, with the start of each process, the output of the frame opening notification sound and the output of the frame opening notification light are started.

  The started frame opening notification sound output processing continues until reception of a frame closing signal based on the determination of the ON state of the design frame closing switches 39a and 39b or the front frame closing switch 38 of the main controller 50, and when the frame closing signal is received. In response to the execution of the frame closing sound output process for 5 seconds, the frame closing sound is output for 5 seconds and the process is terminated.

  As described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 11, the frame opening notification sound is output after the frame opening notification sound is output for 30 seconds. Therefore, when the time from the start of output to the reception of the frame closing signal is 30 seconds or more (left side (1) in the figure), the frame opening notification sound output processing during the period of (C) is executed, but the frame opening notification is performed. The state where no sound is output continues until a frame closing signal is received.

  When the time from the start of output to the reception of the frame closing signal is less than 30 seconds (right side (2) in the figure), the output of the frame opening notification sound is ended by ending the frame opening notification sound output processing when the frame closing signal is received. Then, the output of the frame closing sound is started by starting the frame closing sound output process. Therefore, the notification sound is switched from the frame opening notification sound to the frame closing sound when the frame closing signal is received.

  The frame opening notification light output process that has started is terminated when the frame opening notification light end timer is set at the time when the frame closing signal is received, and the notification is continued for 180 seconds. The output of the frame opening notification light is continuously output during the execution of the frame opening notification light output process, and ends with the end of the frame opening notification light output process.

  The above is the description of the first embodiment. In this embodiment, when the sub integrated control device 53 receives the frame closing signal based on the ON state determination of the design frame closing switches 39a and 39b or the front frame closing switch 38 of the main control device 50, the frame of 5 seconds is processed by the processing of S540. Since it is the structure which outputs a closing sound, it becomes easy to judge cancellation | release of a frame open state. In addition, by outputting the frame opening notification light for 180 seconds after the release of the frame opening state, it is possible to notify surrounding players or game hall staff of the state of the gaming machine. Further, when the frame opening notification is performed, the notification sound is gradually reduced as shown in FIG. 11, and the notification is surely executed while reducing the factors that hinder the progress of the game to the surrounding players. It is the composition to do.

  Next, Example 2 will be described. In this embodiment, the parts constituting the gaming machine and their electrical connections are the same as those in the first embodiment. Therefore, the description of the overlapping operation process is omitted, and the difference will be described below.

  The difference between the present embodiment and the first embodiment is that a condition is added to the execution of the frame closing sound output processing in the frame closing signal reception processing 1 described with reference to FIG. When a frame closing signal is received within seconds, the frame closing sound is not output.

  The difference between the frame closing signal reception processing 2 executed by the sub integrated control device 53 in this embodiment and the frame closing signal reception processing 1 described in Embodiment 1 with reference to FIG. 9 is shown in the flowchart shown in FIG. It explains using. S710 and S720 of the frame closing signal reception process 2 are the same as S510 and S520 of the frame closing signal reception process 1, but the processing configuration of S740 and S750 is different from the frame closing signal reception process 1 from the determination process of S730. It is a content.

  If the determination in S720 is affirmative (S720: YES), in S730, it is determined whether or not the time from the start of the frame opening notification sound output processing is 30 seconds or more. If the determination is affirmative, that is, if the frame opening notification sound output process is being executed but is muted (S730: YES), the frame opening notification sound output process started in S430 is terminated (S740), and the frame closing sound is output. Start (S750) and proceed to S760. If S730 is negative, that is, if a frame open notification sound is being output (S730: NO), the frame open notification sound output process started in S430 is terminated (S740), and the process proceeds to S760 without performing the frame close sound output process. .

  As can be seen from this processing configuration, in the present embodiment, when a frame closing signal is received during the output of the frame opening notification sound, the frame closing signal is not output and the frame closing signal is in the mute state. Is received, a frame closing sound is output.

  Next, using the timing chart shown in FIG. 14, the frame opening notification sound output processing and the actual frame opening notification according to the on / off status of the design frame closing switches 39a and 39b or the front frame closing switch 38 in this embodiment. The relationship between the sound output, the frame opening notification light output process and the actual frame opening notification light output will be described.

  The timing chart of FIG. 12 described in the first embodiment is different from the timing chart of FIG. 12 in that the frame closing sound when the time from the start of outputting the frame opening notification sound to the reception of the frame closing signal is less than 30 seconds (right side (2) in the figure). Whether or not there is an output (B). In the case of the present embodiment, if the time from the reception of the frame opening notification signal to the reception of the frame closing signal is less than 30 seconds, the output of the frame closing sound corresponding to (B) is performed by the negative determination in S730. Not.

  The above is the description of the second embodiment. In this embodiment, the determination condition of S730 is set to 30 seconds. However, the determination condition is not limited to this value, and it may be a time of 30 seconds or less when the frame opening notification sound is reduced to a volume that is difficult to hear, or may be a time of 30 seconds or more. . Further, the determination condition in S730 may be a volume value instead of an elapsed time. In that case, it is preferable to use a sound volume that is difficult to hear during the game as a determination condition.

  Next, Example 3 will be described. In this embodiment, the parts constituting the gaming machine and their electrical connections are the same as those in the first embodiment. Therefore, the description of the overlapping operation process is omitted, and the difference will be described below.

  The difference between the present embodiment and the first embodiment is that the frame opening notification sound output processing is controlled to be ended by a timer set in the processing time instruction, and 30 seconds have elapsed since the reception of the frame opening notification signal. It is configured to end sometimes.

  Differences between the frame opening notification signal reception process 2 and the frame opening notification signal reception process 1 executed by the sub integrated control device 53 in this embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. In the frame opening notification signal reception processing 2, following the frame opening notification sound output processing of S830, a timer for performing end control of the frame opening notification sound output processing is set (S840). The set timer measurement time is a determination condition for each process described later.

  Next, the frame opening notification sound output processing end processing executed by the sub integrated control device 53 will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. When the frame opening notification sound output processing end processing is started, it is determined whether or not the frame opening notification sound output processing is being executed (S910). If the determination is negative (S910: NO), the process returns to the return. If the determination is affirmative (S910: YES), it is determined whether or not the measurement time of the frame opening notification sound output processing timer set in S840 has reached 30 seconds (S920). If the determination is negative (S920: NO), the process returns to the return. If the determination is affirmative (S920: YES), the frame opening notification sound output process is terminated (S930). Therefore, at this point (at the end of the frame opening notification sound output process), the output of the actual frame opening notification sound is also ended.

  Next, differences between the frame closing signal reception process 3 and the frame closing signal reception process 1 executed by the sub integrated control device 53 in this embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. In the frame closing signal reception process 3, following the affirmative determination of whether or not the fraud notification flag in S1020 is 0, it is determined whether or not the frame opening notification sound output process is being executed in S1030. If the determination is affirmative (S1030: YES), the currently executed frame opening notification sound output processing is terminated (S1040), and the process proceeds to S1050. If S1030 is negative (S1030: NO), S1040 is skipped and the process proceeds to S1050.

  The above is the control content different from that of the first embodiment, but the frame opening notification sound output processing and the actual frame according to the ON / OFF state of the design frame closing switches 39a and 39b or the front frame closing switch 38 which change due to this. The relationship between the opening notification sound output, the frame opening notification light output process, and the actual frame opening notification light output will be described with reference to the timing chart shown in FIG.

  The difference from the timing chart of FIG. 12 described in the first embodiment is that the frame opening notification sound output processing does not continue until the reception of the frame closing signal, and ends when 30 seconds have elapsed after receiving the frame opening notification signal. Is a point. Therefore, when the frame closing signal is received after 30 seconds or more have elapsed from the reception of the frame opening notification signal, the frame closing sound output processing is performed for 5 seconds after the frame opening notification sound output processing is completed.

  The configuration of the present embodiment, which is the explanation of the third embodiment, exhibits the same effect as the first embodiment, but the frame opening notification sound output processing is performed when 30 seconds have elapsed from the reception of the frame opening notification signal. The notification sound output is also ended. Therefore, there is no period (from (A) end of FIG. 12 (1) to (B) start time) for executing the frame opening notification sound output processing in a state where the notification sound itself executed in Example 1 is muted. The control burden is reduced.

  According to the gaming machine of the present invention, the frame opening notification performed when the design frame and the front frame are opened has less influence on the game while recognizing the execution of the notification to the surroundings, and the abnormal state is resolved when the frame is closed. This makes it easy to determine the occurrence of an abnormal condition by outputting a warning light for a predetermined time after cancellation. Therefore, the present invention can be applied to a gaming machine that outputs warning sound and warning light emission when an abnormal state occurs.
