  As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the rotating device 120 is disposed so as to be covered with a mounting case 121 disposed on the base portion 111 b side of the movable accessory 111. In the attachment case 121, a rotation motor 122 made of a stepping motor capable of reversible rotation as a drive source is attached. A drive gear 124 is attached to the drive shaft 123 of the rotation motor 122, and a driven gear 125 is engaged with the drive gear 124. The driven gear 125 is fixed to a support shaft 126 attached to the movable accessory 111. The support shaft 126 is pivotally supported by the mounting case 121 and constitutes a rotation axis RC of the movable accessory 111. Therefore, when the rotation motor 122 rotates the drive shaft 123, the driven gear 125 meshed with the drive gear 124 rotates, and the movable accessory 111 moves around the rotation axis RC together with the support shaft 126. It will rotate by a predetermined angle.

  A rotating plate 130 provided with a protrusion-like detected portion 129 is fixed to the support shaft 126, and a photoelectric sensor that outputs an ON signal when the detected portion 129 is shielded from light around the rotating plate 130. The rotation sensors 127 and 128 made up of and the like are arranged with a 180 ° deviation around the rotation axis RC. The rotation sensor 127 is shielded from light by the detected unit 129 and outputs an ON signal to the lamp control unit 100 when it is placed at the first reference position (front position / origin position) P1 where the movable accessory 111 faces the front. The rotation sensor 128 is configured to output an ON signal to the lamp control unit 100 while being shielded from light by the detected unit 129 when the movable accessory 111 is disposed at the back position PB facing the back. .

  When the movable accessory 111 rotates 180 ° from the first reference position P1 to the back surface position PB, a pulse signal of 283 steps is input to the rotation motor 122 formed of a stepping motor, and the movable accessory 111 Is rotating.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the tilting device 140 includes a support shaft portion 142 provided on a support base 141 attached to the back side of the game board 15, and a tilting motor 143 including a reversibly rotatable stepping motor as a drive source. It is configured with. A worm gear 145 is fixed to the drive shaft 144 of the tilt motor 143, and a fan-shaped worm wheel gear 146 that meshes with the worm gear 145 is attached to the support shaft portion 142. A mounting case 121 of the rotating device 120 is fixed to the worm wheel gear 146. Therefore, if the tilting motor 143 rotates the drive shaft 144 to rotate the worm gear 145, the worm wheel gear 146 that meshes with the worm gear 145 rotates about the support shaft portion 142 as a rotation center, and the movable accessory 111 tilts from a tilt initial position KF in a substantially upright state to a tilt completion position KB where the tip 111a is tilted to the left.

  Further, the worm wheel gear 146 is provided with a protrusion-like detected portion 149, which is surrounded by a photoelectric sensor that is shielded by the detected portion 149 and can output an ON signal to the lamp control unit 100. Tilt sensors 147 and 148 are provided. The tilt sensor 147 is disposed so as to be shielded from light by the detected unit 149 and output an ON signal to the lamp control unit 100 when the movable accessory 111 is at the initial tilt position KF. When the object 111 is at the tilt completion position KB, the object 111 is shielded from light by the detected unit 149 and outputs an ON signal to the lamp control unit 100.

  As shown in FIG. 5, when the movable accessory 111 is disposed at the tilt completion position KB and the rear position PB, the feeding device 160 is disposed on the front side of the movable accessory 111, and the front side thereof is the decorative panel 114. Covered with. As shown in FIG. 8, the feeding device 160 operates a feeding motor 162 that is a reversible rotatable stepping motor as a drive source, so that the heart-shaped gimmick 161 is covered with the decorative panel 114 at an initial feeding position LD. To the upper drawing completion position LU from the upper side.

  The feeding device 160 includes a driving gear 164 provided on the driving shaft 163 of the feeding motor 162, a driven gear 165 that meshes with the driving gear 164, and arc-shaped gears 166L and 166R that mesh with the driving gear 164 and the driven gear 165, respectively. The upper arms 168L and 168R and the upper arms 168L and 168R are pivotally supported on the distal ends of the lower arms 167L and 167R and the lower arms 167L and 167R respectively extending from the arcuate gears 166L and 166R. Arc-shaped gears 169L and 169R that are integrally connected, and driven gears 170L and 170R that mesh with the arc-shaped gears 169L and 169R and mesh with each other, respectively. The feeding motor 162 is fixed to the back side portion 112b of the movable accessory 111, and the driven gear 165 and the arcuate gears 166L and 166R are similarly rotatably supported on the back side portion 112b. The arcuate gears 169L and 169R and the driven gears 170L and 170R are pivotally supported on the back side of the gimmick 161 so as to be rotatable.

  Therefore, if the feeding motor 162 rotates the drive gear 164 in the clockwise direction as shown in FIG. 8A, the driven gear 165 and the arcuate gears 166L, 166R rotate, and the driven gears 170L, 170R, the lower arms 167L and 167R and the upper arms 168L and 168R rise in a balanced manner on the left and right sides, so that the gimmick 161 is moved from the initial feeding position LD shown in FIG. Are fed out to the feeding completion position LU shown in FIG. Then, if the feeding motor 162 is reversed, the operation is reversed, and the gimmick 161 returns from the feeding completion position LU to the feeding initial position LD.

  A fan-plate-like detected portion 172 is attached to the arc-shaped gear 166L, and a feeding sensor 171 such as a photoelectric sensor for detecting an edge of the detected portion 172 is disposed around the detected portion. The feeding sensor 171 outputs an ON signal to the lamp controller 100 when the light blocking state is changed to the light transmitting state. When the gimmick 161 is arranged from the feeding completion position LU side to the feeding initial position LD, the feeding motor 162 rotates the drive gear 164 in the counterclockwise direction in FIG. When the gimmick 161 descends from the feeding completion position LU, the feeding sensor 171 changes from the light transmitting state to the light shielding state by the detected portion 172, and then moves to the feeding initial position LD of the gimmick 161. Since the light shielding state by the detected portion 172 is changed to the light transmitting state at the time of the return, the lamp control unit 100 detects the return of the gimmick 161 to the feeding initial position LD by the ON signal. The feeding completion position LU is detected when the feeding sensor 171 is rotated from the light-transmitting state when the gimmick 161 is raised from the feeding initial position LD when the driving gear 164 is rotated in the clockwise direction by the operation of the feeding motor 162. When the gimmick 161 is placed in the payout completion position LU, the lamp control section 100 causes the gimmick 161 to be in a light-transmitting state from the light-shielding state by the detected portion 172. The arrangement at the feeding completion position LU of 161 is detected.

It is determined whether or not the value U2 of the second start-port hold counter that counts the number of jackpot random numbers stored in is less than the upper limit of 4 (S307). If it is not less than 4, the start-up SW processing is finished. If it is less than 4, 1 is added to U2 (S308), and various random numbers (big hit random number, big hit symbol random number, reach random number, fluctuation pattern random number) are obtained and 2 is stored in the special figure storage unit 63b (S309). Then, the second hold number increase command is set (S310), and the start port SW process is completed.

  [Gate Processing] In the gate processing (S203), although not shown, when the main control unit 60 determines that the gate SW 28a has been turned on, a normal random number is obtained on condition that the number of normal symbol reserved balls is less than “4”. Acquired and stored in the general-purpose hold storage unit 63c.

  [Big Winner SW Processing] Although not shown in the big win SW SW processing (S204), if the big win SW27a is ON, whether the big win game or the small win game (the win game flag described later is ON)? If it is determined whether or not the game is in the big win game or the small hit game, 1 is added to the value of the winning prize counter and 1 is added to the value of the big winning counter.

  [Normal Winning Port SW Processing] Although not shown, the normal winning port SW processing (S205) is a process of adding 1 to the value of the normal winning port counter if the normal winning port SW30a is ON.

  Subsequently, the main control unit 60 performs a special symbol process (S206), a normal symbol process (S207), which will be described later, a big prize opening process (S208), an electric chew process (S209), a prize ball process (S210), which are described later, The output process (S211) is performed.

  [Normal symbol processing] In the normal symbol processing (S207), although not shown, the winning random number stored in the gate SW processing is the current gaming state (probability changing gaming state, normal gaming state, latent certain gaming state or short-time gaming state). It is determined whether it is a hit random number value or a lost random value set in advance corresponding to the game, and the normal symbol change time is selected according to the current gaming state, and the normal symbol display 37 is selected. When the normal symbol is variably displayed only for the variation time, and when the variation time has elapsed and the variation display of the normal symbol is stopped, the auxiliary game flag is turned on when the winning random number is the winning random number value. When the auxiliary game flag is turned on, in the electric chew process (S209), the electric chew 24 is opened for the open time and the number of times set according to the current game state.

  [Electric Chu Processing] In the electric chewing processing (S209), although not shown, when the auxiliary game flag is turned on in the above-described normal symbol processing, the electric chew 24 of the second starting port 23 is set according to the current gaming state. Opening operation is performed for the opening time and number of times.

  [Prize Ball Processing] In the prize ball processing (S210), although not shown, the number of prize balls (15 balls per count in the embodiment) according to the value of the big prize counter corresponding to the game ball entry, The number of prize balls according to the value of the normal prize opening counter (10 balls per count in the embodiment) and the number of prize balls according to the value of the start prize mouth counter (3 balls per count in the embodiment) Set a command to issue, and clear those counters to zero.

  [Output Process] In the output process (S211), although not shown, various commands are output to the payout control unit 70 and the effect control unit 90.

[Special symbol processing]
In the special symbol process (S206), as shown in FIG. 11, the main control unit 60 performs a winning game flag indicating whether or not a winning game is in progress (that is, a small winning game flag, a long winning game flag, or a short winning game). It is determined whether or not the flag) is ON (S401). If the flag is ON, the special symbol processing is terminated. If it is not ON, it is determined whether or not the special symbol is changing (S402). If it is fluctuating, the process proceeds to step S413. If it is not fluctuating, it is determined whether or not the value U2 of the second start port hold counter or the value U1 of the first start port hold counter is 1 or more (S403, S405). ). If both U2 and U1 are not 1 or more, the customer waiting setting process (S407) is performed, and the special symbol process is completed.

(Customer waiting setting process)
In the customer waiting setting process (S407), as shown in FIG. 12, it is determined whether or not the customer waiting flag indicating whether or not the customer is waiting is on (S501). If the setting process is finished, and if it is not ON, a customer waiting command is set (S502), the customer waiting flag is turned ON (S503), and the process ends.

  On the other hand, in S403 and S405 of the special symbol processing, if U2 or U1 is 1 or more, 1 is subtracted from U2 or U1 (S404, S406), the customer waiting flag is turned OFF (S408), and then steps S304 or S309 A jackpot determination process is performed using the jackpot random number stored in (S409), and then a variation pattern selection process is performed (S410).

(Big hit judgment processing)
In the jackpot determination process (S410), as shown in FIG. 13, the main control unit 60 determines whether or not the jackpot random number is a jackpot using a jackpot determination table corresponding to the gaming state (S601). . Then, if it is a jackpot (YES in S602), it is determined which jackpot symbol the jackpot symbol random number stored in step S304 or S309 indicates (S603), and the jackpot symbol is set (S604) . The type of jackpot is determined by the jackpot design. On the other hand, if the jackpot random number is not a jackpot (NO in S602), but if it is a jackpot (YES in S605), a jackpot symbol is set (S606). If it is not a small hit (NO in S605), a lost pattern is set (S607).

    (Variation pattern selection process) Although not shown in the fluctuation pattern selection process (S410), if it is determined that the jackpot is determined as a big hit in the immediately preceding jackpot determination process, a table for jackpot as a fluctuation pattern table indicating the correspondence between the random number value and the fluctuation pattern If it is determined that it is a small hit, it refers to the table for small hits, if it is determined that it is neither a big hit nor a small hit, it refers to the table for loss and stored in step S304 or S309 It is determined which variation pattern the variation pattern random number indicates, and the corresponding variation pattern is set. Note that the variation pattern includes information indicating the variation time.

  Thereafter, in the special symbol process (S206), following the variation pattern selection process (S410), the main control unit 60 starts the variation of the special symbol in the first special symbol display 39a or the second special symbol display 39b. (S411), a change start command is set (S412), and the process proceeds to step S413. In step S413, it is determined whether or not the special symbol fluctuation time has elapsed. If it has not elapsed, the special symbol processing ends. If it has elapsed, the special symbol variation is stopped and set in the jackpot determination processing. The special symbol is fixedly displayed with the symbol thus displayed (S414), and a change stop command is set (S415). Then, during the stop process (S416), the special symbol process is finished.

    (In-stop processing) In the in-stop processing (S416), although not shown, the main control unit 60 performs various game flags (time-short game flag, probability variable game flag, latent probability game flag, small hit game flag, long hit game flag, Processing for turning off or on (short win game flag) is performed. If it is a big hit or a small win, an opening is started and an opening command is set to finish the processing.

[Large winning prize processing]
In the big prize opening process (S208), as shown in FIG. 14, the main control unit 60 first determines whether or not the winning game flag is ON (S701). If it is ON, it is determined whether or not opening is in progress (S702). The opening refers to the period from the start of the winning game to the start of the first round. When it is determined that the opening is in progress, the main control unit 60 determines whether or not the opening time has elapsed (S703). A maximum R number (round number) and an operation pattern according to the type are set (S704). Then, the value C of the winning number counter is cleared to zero (S705), 1 is added to the value R of the round counter (S706), and the operation (opening) of the big winning opening 27 is started (S707).

  Next, the main control unit 60 determines whether or not the operating time of the special winning opening 27 (opening time. In the embodiment, 29.5 seconds for long hits and 0.1 second for short hits or small hits) has passed. It is determined (S708), and if it has elapsed, the big prize opening 27 is closed (S710), and if it has not elapsed, whether or not the value C of the winning prize counter is the prescribed number (9 in the embodiment). (S709), if the number is not the prescribed number, the big prize opening process is finished, and if the number is the prescribed number, the big prize opening 27 is closed (S710).

  Then, the main control unit 60 determines whether or not the value R of the round counter is the maximum number of Rs (S711). If it is not the maximum number of Rs, the big winning opening process is finished. Is started (S712), an ending command is set (S713), and the value R of the round counter is cleared to zero (S714). Ending refers to the period from the end of the final round to the end of the winning game. Next, the main control unit 60 determines whether or not the ending time has elapsed (S717). If it has not elapsed, the main winning opening process is terminated, and if it has elapsed, the game state setting process is performed (S718). ), The winning game flag is turned OFF (S719).

  On the other hand, when the main control unit 60 determines in step S702 that the opening is not in progress, the main control unit 60 determines whether or not the special winning opening 27 is in the ending (S715). If it is not ending, it is determined whether or not the special winning opening 27 is in operation (S716). If not in operation, the process proceeds to step S705, and if in operation, the process proceeds to step S708.

    (Game state setting process) Although not shown in the game state setting process (S718), the main control unit 60 ends the game state setting process because the game state is not changed if the winning game just ended is a small hit. If it is a 15R normal jackpot, the hourly gaming flag is turned on to make a transition to the hourly gaming state, and if it is a 15R probability variation jackpot, the probability changing game flag is turned on to make a transition to the probability changing gaming state. Then, the latent game flag is turned ON to make a transition to the latent game state.

<< Sub-control unit processing >>
In parallel with the processing in the main control unit 60 described above, in the effect control unit 90 of the sub control unit 85, the CPU 91 of the effect control unit 90 executes the program stored in the ROM 92 and is not continuously illustrated during startup. A predetermined main effect control process is performed, and the sub-side timer interrupt process shown in FIG. 15 is interrupted and executed at a predetermined cycle (for example, every 4 ms) for this main effect control process.

[Sub timer interrupt processing]
In the sub timer interrupt process, the effect control unit 90, as shown in FIG. 15, command reception process (S1001), effect button process (S1002), key detection SW process (S1003), and decorative body change operation Processing (S1004), command reception processing, effect button processing, key detection SW processing, and command transmission processing for transmitting commands set in the decorative body changing operation processing to the image sound control unit 95 and the lamp control unit 100 (S1005) And do. When the command transmission process is executed, the image sound control unit 95 and the lamp control unit 100 that have received the various commands perform various rendering devices (the image display units 19 and 20, the speaker 56, the frame lamp 57, the panel lamp 58, and the like. Using the movable accessory device 110), various effects (decorative symbol variation effect, jackpot effect, or customer waiting effect) and adjustment processing for adjusting the orientation of the second image display unit 20 of the movable accessory 111 are executed. To do.

[Command reception processing]
In the command reception process (S1001), as shown in FIG. 16, the effect control unit 90 has received a hold number increase command (first hold number increase command or second hold number increase command) from the main control unit 60. (S1101), if it is received, if the command is the first pending number increase command, the first pending number is added, if it is the second pending number increase command, the second pending number is added (S1102), A hold number command for displaying the hold number on the display screen 19a is set (S1103).

  Next, if the variation start command is received from the main control unit 60, the effect control unit 90 performs an effect selection process described later (S1104, S1105), and if the variation stop command is received, the variation effect end process (S1106, S1107). Then, the effect control unit 90 performs a hit effect selection process if an opening command is received (S1108, S1109), and performs an ending effect selection process if an ending command is received (S1110, S1111). Subsequently, the effect control unit 90 performs a customer waiting command reception process (S1112) and ends the command reception process.

(Direction selection process)
In the effect selection process (S1105), as shown in FIG. 17, the effect control unit 90 first analyzes the variation start command received from the main control unit 60 (S1201) and refers to the mode flag indicating the effect mode. (S1202). The variation start command includes information indicating the current gaming state, special symbols selected in the big hit lottery, and information indicating the variation pattern. In addition, the effect mode is an aspect of the effect in the image display units 19 and 20, and when the effect mode is different, the images displayed on the image display units 19 and 20 are different, for example, characters appearing and background images are different. The decoration symbol variation effect is also executed according to the effect mode. For example, the effect mode includes a short-time mode indicating a short-time gaming state, a probability-changing mode indicating a probability-variable gaming state, a latent-probability mode indicating a latent-probable gaming state, and a normal gaming state. There are normal modes to show.

  Subsequently, the effect control unit 90 performs a hold number subtraction process for setting a hold number command for subtracting the hold number by 1 and displaying the hold number on the display screen 19a (S1203). Then, a predetermined variation effect pattern table is set, the set variation effect pattern table is referred to, and a variation effect pattern is selected based on the analyzed change start command and the referred effect mode (S1204). As a result, it is determined what kind of effect is to be performed as a decorative symbol variation effect including a notice action (notice effect) such as a so-called step-up notice or a chance-up notice. Then, a variation effect start command for starting the decorative symbol variation effect with the selected variation effect pattern is set (S1205), and the effect selection process is terminated.

    (Processing during the end of the variation effect) Although not shown in the processing during the end of the variation effect (S1107), the effect control unit 90 analyzes the received change stop command (S1106) and sets the upper limit continuation count in the case of success. Then, the mode flag is changed again, and in the case of losing, “1” is subtracted until the upper limit continuation count of the current mode is reached, and the variable effect end command is set. When the upper limit continuation count is reached and “0” is reached, the mode flag is set to 0 in order to return to the normal mode, and the variable effect end command is set.

    (Winning Effect Selection Process) In the winning effect selection process (S1109), although not shown, the effect control unit 90 analyzes an opening command (S1108), selects a winning effect pattern, and sets an opening effect start command.

    (Ending Effect Selection Process) In the ending effect selection process (S1111), although not shown, the effect control unit 90 analyzes an ending command (S1110), selects an ending effect pattern, and sets an ending effect start command.

(Waiting for waiting command reception process)
In the customer waiting command reception process (S1112), as shown in FIG. 18, the effect control unit 90 determines whether or not a customer waiting command has been received (S1301). Measurement of the time until execution is started and the measurement flag is turned on (S1302, S1303), and the process proceeds to step S1305. On the other hand, if it is not received, it is determined whether or not the measurement flag is turned on (S1304). If it is not turned on, the time until execution of the customer waiting effect is not being measured. It is determined whether the time is up, that is, whether the time currently measured has reached a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds) set as the time until execution of the customer waiting effect (S1305). If the time is not up, the process ends. If the time is up, the measurement flag is turned OFF (S1306), and a customer waiting effect start command for starting the customer waiting effect is set (S1307).

[Direction button processing]
In the effect button process (S1002), as shown in FIG. 19, the effect control unit 90 determines whether or not the effect button 46 is pressed (turned on) based on a signal from the effect button detection SW 46a (S1401). If it is not ON, the process is terminated, and if it is ON, a production button command is set (S1402).

[Key detection SW processing]
In the key detection SW process (S1003), as shown in FIG. 20, if the left key portion 51 of the cross key button 50 is pressed and the left key detection SW 51a is turned on, the effect control unit 90 performs the left key operation command. Is set (S1501, S1502), and if the right key section 52 is pressed and the right key detection SW 52a is turned on, a right key operation command is set (S1503, S1504), and the upper key section 53 is further pressed. If the upper key detection SW 53a is turned on, the upper key operation command is set (S1505, S1506). If the lower key portion 54 is pressed and the lower key detection SW 54a is turned on, the lower key operation command is set. Is set (S1507, S1508), and the process ends.

[Decoration change processing]
In the decorative body changing operation process (S1004), as shown in FIG. 21, the effect control unit 90 determines whether or not the decorative body adjustment flag is ON (S1601). If so, a decoration body adjustment operation command is set (S1602).

  The decorative body adjustment flag is a flag that the image sound control unit 95 turns on in step S2112 of a menu screen display process (FIGS. 22, 23, S2011) described later, and is also sent from the image sound control unit 95 to the effect control unit 90. The effect control unit 90 determines that it is ON in step S1601, and proceeds to step S1602.

  In addition, the decorative body adjustment operation command set in step S1602 is transmitted to the image sound control unit 95 and the lamp control unit 100 so that the player can easily view the 3D image. This is a command for executing processing for adjusting the orientation of the display unit 20, in other words, the orientation of the display area 20a.

≪Process of image sound control unit≫
Next, the processing in the image sound control unit 95 will be described. In the image sound control unit 95, various special commands from the effect control unit 90 (predetermined special symbol fluctuations associated with winning in the start ports 22 and 23). Variation effect start command, variation effect end command, opening effect start command at the start of jackpot game, ending effect start command at the end of jackpot game, start ports 22 and 23 are not held In the state and when there is no winning at the start ports 22 and 23 for a predetermined time, a customer waiting production start command, a production button command, a key operation command, a decorative body adjustment operation command, etc. for performing a customer waiting production (customer waiting demonstration production), etc. ), The CPU 96 of the image sound control unit 95 reads the corresponding data from the ROM 102, and the image display units 19 and 2 are read out. And it displays a predetermined image in the display screen 19a and the display area 20a, and thus to generate a predetermined sound from the speaker 56.

[Waiting production process]
Among the above processes, the image sound control unit 95 performs a customer waiting effect process as shown in FIG. In this customer waiting effect process, first, it is determined whether or not a predetermined operation is being performed on the menu screen, that is, whether or not the menu operation flag is ON (S2001). If not, it is determined whether or not the customer waiting effect is being performed, that is, whether or not the customer waiting effect flag is ON (S2002). If it is ON, the process proceeds to step S2005. If it is not ON (NO in S2002), it is determined whether or not a customer waiting effect start command has been received (S2003). If not received, the process ends. If it has been received, the customer waiting effect flag is turned ON. (S2004), the customer waiting effect is displayed (S2005), and the process proceeds to step S2006.

  In the embodiment, in the case of the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 30, the display screen 19a of the first image display unit 19 displays a customer waiting effect DM1 of an image of a person walking on a tree-lined road, and displays a second image. In the display area 20a of the unit 20, a customer waiting effect DM2 that is a 3D image of a snowman is displayed. At this time, a predetermined sound may be generated from the speaker 56 as appropriate. At this time, a guide G1 is displayed on a part of the display screen 19a (lower part in the embodiment), which can be shifted to the menu screen by pressing the effect button 46.

  In step S2006, after displaying the customer waiting effects DM1 and DM2, it is determined whether or not an effect button command is received by pressing the effect button 46, and if received, the menu operation flag is turned on (S2010). The process proceeds to menu screen display processing (S2011). If no effect button command for pressing the effect button 46 is received after the customer waiting effects DM1 and DM2 are started (NO in S2006), it is determined whether or not a variable effect start command is received (S2007) and received. If not, the process ends, and if received, the customer waiting effects DM1 and DM2 are ended (S2008), the customer waiting effect flag is turned off (S2009), and the process ends.

  Note that the variable effect start command will be described. As described above, the variable effect start command is a command associated with winning a prize at the start ports 22 and 23 during the game. That is, if a game ball wins the start opening 22 or 23, the main control unit 60 performs a start opening SW process (see S202, FIG. 10) and a special symbol process (see S206, FIG. 11), and sets a waiting flag for the customer. Turn off (S408), perform jackpot determination processing (S409, see FIG. 13), and further select according to the type of jackpot, small hit, and loss according to the determination result of the jackpot determination processing in the variation pattern selection processing (S410) A predetermined variation pattern is set, and the effect control unit 90 receives the variation pattern (S1001). Then, in the effect selection process (S1105, see FIG. 17) in the command reception process, the effect control unit 90 analyzes the change pattern command and transmits a change effect start command corresponding to the image sound control unit 95 (S1205). . Therefore, in the display screen 19a and the display area 20a of the image display units 19 and 20, the decoration is performed in parallel with the special symbol change in the first special symbol display 39a or the second special symbol display 39b performed by the main control unit 60. The customer waiting effects DM1 and DM2 are not necessary to display the symbol variation and the like, and the customer waiting effects are ended (S2008).

  For this reason, on the contrary, if the change effect start command is not received, the display of the customer waiting effects DM1 and DM2 is continued in the customer waiting effect process, except in the case of the menu display screen process (S2011). .

(Menu screen display processing)
In the menu screen display process (S2011), as shown in FIG. 23, the image sound control unit 95 first determines whether or not the login operation is being performed, that is, whether or not the login operation flag is ON (S2101). If it is, the login display process (S2107) is continued. If it is not ON, it is determined whether or not the game guide is being performed, that is, whether or not the game guide flag is ON (S2102). If the display process (S2110) is continued and is not ON, it is determined whether or not the decorative body (movable accessory) 111 is being adjusted, that is, whether or not the decorative body adjustment flag is ON (S2103). If so, the decorative body adjustment display processing (S2113) is continued, and if not ON, the menu screen is displayed (S2104).

  In the case of the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 31, this menu screen is displayed on the display screen 19 a of the first image display unit 19 as “Login” for performing a login operation, and receives a description of a game guide. 4 ”,“ 3D screen adjustment ”for adjusting the orientation of the display area (display surface) 20a of the second image display unit 20 and“ Return ”for returning to the customer waiting effect, are displayed. In part (lower part), by operating the upper and lower key portions 53 and 54 of the cross key button 50 to select one of the menus or to return, the selected menu can be selected by pressing the effect button 46. The guide G2 for guiding is also displayed so that the screen can be shifted to the screen for executing the above.

  In FIG. 31, “3D screen adjustment” is selected as a black background white character, but “Log in” is selected as a black background white character when the menu screen is initially displayed. ing. If the lower key portion 54 of the cross key button 50 is pressed, the menu in the lower column is selected, and if the upper key portion 53 is pressed, the menu in the upper column is selected.

  Therefore, in the menu screen display processing, the image sound control unit 95 displays the menu screen in step S2104, and if an effect button command is received by pressing the effect button 46 (YES in S2105), the login operation flag Is turned on (S2106), and the process proceeds to the login display process (S2107). Although the description of the login display process is omitted, operations such as saving the history of the cleared stage of the game machine 10 and the history of points acquired, reproducing the previous game history, and the like can be performed. Is. When this login operation is completed, the login operation flag is turned off.

  If the determination in step S2105 is NO, and the lower key part 54 of the cross key button 50 is pressed and the menu field of the game guide is selected, an effect button command for pressing the effect button 46 is received. In step S2108, YES is set, and the image sound control unit 95 turns on the game guide flag (S2109), and proceeds to the game guide display process (S2110). Although the description of the game guide display process is omitted, it is a guide for the game, for example, the operation of the ball lending button, the operation of the launch handle 43, the aim of the game ball to be shot, the type and expectation of the reach effect, etc. The game is explained to the player using the image display unit 19 and the speaker 56, and the game guide flag is turned OFF when the explanation of the game is completed.

  Furthermore, the determination in step S2108 is NO, and the effect button command associated with the pressing of the effect button 46 in the state where the lower key part 54 of the cross key button 50 is pressed and the menu field for 3D screen adjustment is selected. Is received, YES is determined in step S2111, and the image sound control unit 95 turns on the decorative body adjustment flag (S2112), and proceeds to a decorative body adjustment display process described later (S2113).

  Note that the ON signal of the decoration adjustment flag is also transmitted to the effect control unit 90 as described above, and is used for the determination in step S1601 of the decoration body changing operation process (S1004, see FIG. 21) of the effect control unit 90. Is done.

  If the determination in step S2111 is NO, the lower key part 54 of the cross key button 50 is pressed, and the effect button command of pressing the effect button 46 is received with the “return” menu field selected. If YES in step S2114, the image sound control unit 95 turns off the menu operation flag (S2115) and ends the menu screen display process.

  When the menu screen display process ends, the image sound control unit 95 determines that the menu operation flag is OFF and the process proceeds to step S2002 in step S2001 of the customer waiting effect process, but the customer waiting effect flag is ON. Therefore, YES is determined in step S2002, the process proceeds to step S2005, and the customer waiting effects DM1 and DM2 are displayed on the first image display unit 19 and the second image display unit 20.

  However, in the decorative body adjustment display processing in the menu screen display processing, the decorative body is adjusted to a preferred orientation that is easy to see for the player, and the decorative body is placed at the third reference position (post-adjustment position) P3. If the direction of 20a is adjusted, the second image display unit 20 displays the customer waiting effect DM2 in a state where the direction of the display area 20a is changed as shown in FIG.

(Decoration display processing)
The decorative body adjustment display process (S2113) models the second image display unit 20 when adjusting the display area 20a of the movable accessory (decorative body) 111 so that the display area 20a is easy to see. The adjustment degree is displayed on the display screen 19a of the first image display unit 19, and the adjustment effect image is displayed on the second image display unit 20 to assist the adjustment.

  In the decorative body adjustment display process (S2113), as shown in FIG. 24, the image sound control unit 95 first determines whether or not the adjustment display start flag is ON (S2201). If it is not ON, the decorative body adjustment screen is displayed on the first image display unit 19 (S2202), and the adjustment effect image is displayed on the second image display unit 20 (S2203). The display start flag is turned on (S2204), and the process proceeds to step S2205.

  As shown in FIG. 32A, the decorative body adjustment screen GA displayed on the display screen 19a of the first image display unit 19 includes a model DD imitating the display area 20a of the second image display unit 20 and the direction in which the model DD is directed. The arrow DA and the scale DS indicating the angle of the direction are displayed. Further, the adjustment effect image AD displayed in the display area 20a of the second image display unit 20 is a three-dimensional star-shaped body SD. A part of the display screen 19a is guided to operate the left key portion 51 and the right key portion 52 of the cross key button 50 to be operated when changing the direction of the arrow DA. In order to determine to fix the direction, a guide G3 that guides the user to operate the lower key portion 54 as a determination button is displayed.

  At the beginning of display of the decorative body adjustment screen GA, the lamp control unit 100 described later moves the movable accessory (decorative body) 111 to the origin position (steps S3103 to S3107 in the decorative body adjustment operation processing (S3001, see FIG. 26)). Since it is arranged at the first reference position P1 that is the front position), it is displayed as a state as shown in FIG.

  In step S2205, the image sound control unit 95 determines whether or not the key operation command of the left key detection SW 51a or the right key detection SW 52a due to the pressing of the left key unit 51 or the right key unit 52 is received. If it has not been received, the process proceeds to step S2212. If it has been received, the decorative body adjustment screen GA is displayed in correspondence with the key operation command as shown in FIG. The decorative body adjustment screen GA is caused to follow so as to change the direction of the model DD and the arrow DA to the left side or the right side (S2206). On the other hand, if a determination key operation command is received in step S2122, the process proceeds to step S2208, and if not received, the process ends. Incidentally, when ON in step S2122, the player who may use the first reference position P1 as the favorite reference position P3 operates the lower key portion 54.

  Note that, in the case of the embodiment, the lamp control unit 100 (to be described later) performs step S3109 of the decorative body adjustment operation process (S3001, see FIG. 26) with a single pressing operation of the left key unit 51 and the right key unit 52. In S3112, the rotation motor 122 of the rotation device 120 of the movable accessory device 110 is driven, and at this time, the rotation motor 122 corresponds to the drive shaft 123 by a predetermined number of steps (5 steps in the embodiment). It is supposed to rotate in the direction. Therefore, as shown in B of FIG. 32 and A and B of FIG. 33, the orientation of the actual display surface (display area) 20a of the movable accessory 111 is also changed, and the player can change the actual second An easy-to-see angle of the adjustment effect image AD in the display area 20a of the image display unit 20 can be grasped, and the determination button (lower key unit) 54 can be pressed at the angular position.

  The player who is difficult to see the display area 20a at the first reference position P1 presses down the left key part 51 and the right key part 52, and the image sound control unit 95 issues a decision key operation command in step S2207. Until it is received, YES in step S2205, NO in step S2206, and NO in step S2207 are repeated, and the model DD on the decorative body adjustment screen GA and the arrow DA are caused to follow. If the image sound control unit 95 receives the determination key operation command (YES in S2207, YES in S2212), it ends the display of the decoration body adjustment screen GA (S2208) and displays the adjustment effect image AD. Then, the adjustment display start flag is turned off (S2210), the decorative body adjustment flag is turned off (S2211), and the process ends.

  In the case of the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 32B, the orientation of the display area 20a determined by the player is slightly inclined toward the left side, and the arrangement position is a movable accessory. (Decorative body / second image display unit 20) 111 becomes the third reference position (post-adjustment position) P3, and as shown in FIGS. Except for, the movable accessory 111 maintains its orientation.

  Incidentally, if it is determined that the display area 20a is further directed leftward according to the player's easy-to-view preferences, for example, the state shown in A of FIG. 33 or A of FIG. 3 is obtained, and conversely, the display area 20a is directed rightward. If the state is determined, for example, the state shown in B of FIG. 33 or B of FIG. 3 is obtained, and these become the third reference positions P3 ′, P3 ″, and the first image display unit 19 of various variation effect patterns. In the display area 20a of the second image display unit 20, an effect image of a predetermined 3D image is displayed in the display area 20a of the third reference positions P3 ′ and P3 ″ together with the effect image such as the decorative symbol variation displayed on the display screen 19a. Will be displayed.

  In the case of the embodiment, the arrangement of the movable accessory (decorative body) 111 before adjustment, that is, the second reference position P2 is slightly leftward from the third reference position P3 as shown in FIGS. It is illustrated as a state that coincides with the direction of the movable accessory decoration body 111 illustrated in 33A and FIG. 3A. Therefore, in FIG. 3A and FIG. 33A, (P2) is written in parentheses.

  If the orientation of the display surface 20a of the movable accessory 111, that is, the orientation of the display area 20a of the second image display unit 20 is adjusted, the image sound control unit 95 determines NO in step S2101 in the menu image display process. Since NO in step S2102 and NO in step S2103, if the menu screen is displayed on the first image display unit 19 and then the login operation or game guide menu is not selected, the process proceeds to step S2114. If “RETURN” is selected, YES is set in step S2144, the menu operation flag is turned OFF (S2115), and the menu screen display process is ended.

  At this time, as shown in FIG. 37, the menu screen is displayed on the first image display unit 19 in a state where the movable accessory 111 is arranged at the adjusted third reference position P3.

  When the menu screen display process ends, as described above, the image sound control unit 95 determines that the menu operation flag is OFF in step S2001 of the customer waiting effect process, and the process proceeds to step S2002. Since the waiting effect flag remains ON, YES is determined in step S2002, the process proceeds to step S2005, and the customer waiting effects DM1 and DM2 are displayed on the first image display unit 19 and the second image display unit 20. (See FIG. 36).

  As described above, the direction of the display area 20a of the second image display unit 20 shown in FIG. 36 is also changed to a direction that is easy for the player to see compared to the direction shown in FIG.

≪Process in lamp control section≫
Next, the processing in the lamp control unit 100 will be described. In the lamp control unit 100, the CPU 101 executes a program stored in the ROM 102 to perform a predetermined main lamp control process (not shown) continuously during startup, Then, the lamp control timer interrupt process shown in FIG. 25 is interrupted and executed for this main lamp control process at a predetermined cycle (for example, every 4 ms).

[Ramp control timer interrupt processing]
In the lamp control timer interrupt process, for example, as shown in FIG. 25, the lamp control unit 100 first executes a decorative body adjustment operation process described later (S3001), and then performs a combined movable accessory effect process described later. This is executed (S3002), a lamp lighting effect process for controlling the lighting contents of the frame lamp 57, the panel lamp 58, etc. is performed (S3003), and the process ends.

[Decoration adjustment processing]

If ON, the process proceeds to step S3109. Then, it is determined whether or not a decorative body adjustment operation command is received from the effect control unit 90 (S3102). If not received, the process ends. If received, the movable accessory (decorative body) 111 is received. Is already at the first reference position P1 (S3103).

  As described above, the first reference position P1 is a position in which the movable accessory 111 is disposed at the front position P1, and the movable accessory 111 is disposed at the first reference position P1. Then, the rotation sensor 127 is in a state of outputting the ON signal shielded by the detected part 129 to the lamp control part 100.

  In the case of the embodiment, at the time of determination in step S3103, as shown in FIGS. 30 and 31, the movable accessory 111 is disposed at the second reference position P2 that is shifted from the first reference position P1. Furthermore, since the adjustment is performed from the first reference position P1 in the previous adjustment even at the time of arrangement at the second reference position P2 itself, the adjusted operation amount AM2 is shown in step S3113 described later. As described above, the operation amount storage unit 103a of the RAM 103 of the lamp control unit 100 is stored in advance.

  If the movable accessory (decorative body) 111 is placed at the first reference position (origin position) P1 in step S3103, the lamp control unit 100 moves to step S3108 and is placed at the first reference position P1. If not, the previous operation amount AM2 is called from the operation amount storage unit 103a (S3104), and the rotation motor 122 is driven to return so as to return from the second reference position P2 to the first reference position P1 (S3105). If the ON signal of the rotation sensor 127 is received, that is, if the rotation sensor 127 is returned to the first reference position P1 (YES in S3106), the drive of the rotation motor 122 is stopped (S3107), and step S3108. And the adjustment operation start flag is turned ON.

  Thereafter, in step S3109, the lamp control unit 100 has received a key operation command for the left key detection SW 51a and the right key detection SW 52a when the left key unit 51 and the right key unit 52 of the cross key button 50 are pressed. If it has not been received, the process proceeds to step S3115, and it is determined whether a determination key operation command has been received. If not, the process ends. If it has been received, the process proceeds to step S3133. Transition. If a key operation command has been received in step S3109, the rotation motor 122 is rotated in a predetermined direction in response to the key operation command (S3110).

  Note that when the enter key operation command is received in step S3115, the player has determined that the first reference position P1 is the favorite third reference position P3. In this case, the operation amount AM3 is 0 in step S3113. Will be stored as

  When the decorative body adjustment operation process (S3001) is executed, the image sound control unit 95 executes a decorative body adjustment display process (S2113, see FIG. 24). First, step S3108 of the decorative body adjustment operation process is performed. In correspondence with the adjustment operation start flag ON, as shown in FIG. 32A, the model DD of the second image display unit 20 and the arrow DA in the direction are directed to the front in correspondence with the first reference position P1. If the decorative body adjustment screen GA is displayed on the display screen 19a of the first image display unit 19 and then a predetermined key operation command is received (S2205), as shown in B of FIG. 32 or A and B of FIG. In addition, a follow-up effect is displayed in which the model DD of the second image display unit 20 and the arrow DA in the direction thereof are moved with respect to the scale DS in accordance with the pressing operation of the left key unit 51 and the right key unit 52. Will be allowed to.

  At this time, in the decorative body adjustment operation process, as described above, the rotation of the rotating device 120 of the movable accessory device 110 is performed in accordance with the single pressing operation of the left key portion 51 and the right key portion 52. The moving motor 122 rotates the drive shaft 123 in a corresponding direction by 5 steps, and as shown in FIG. 32B and FIGS. 33A and B, the movable accessory 111 (second image display unit). 20) The orientation of the display surface (display area) 20a is changed.

  When the player goes through steps S3109 to S3110 and the display area 20a of the second image display unit 20 is at an easily viewable angle of the adjustment effect image AD, the player presses the enter button (lower key unit) 54. Accordingly, the lamp control unit 100 receives the determination key operation command (YES in S3111), stops driving the rotation motor 122 (S3112), and stores the operation amount AM3 so far in the operation amount storage unit 103a of the RAM 103. (S3113), the adjustment operation start flag is turned off (S3114), and the process is terminated.

  In the case of the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 32B, the state in which the display area 20 a of the second image display unit 20 is slightly left is the third reference position (after adjustment) of the movable accessory (decorative body) 111. Position) P3.

  Further, as described above, the movable accessory (decorative body / second image display unit 20) 111 of the embodiment uses the angular position as the third reference position P3 to display the first image of various variation effect patterns. An effect image such as a predetermined 3D image is displayed in the display area 20a of the second image display unit 20 together with the effect image such as the decorative symbol variation displayed on the display screen 19a of the unit 19 (FIG. 1, FIG. 34, A, C, see FIG. 35).

[Moving accessory production process]
In the movable accessory effect process (S3002), the lamp control unit 100, based on the accessory effect start command received from the effect control unit 90, as shown in FIGS. 27 to 29, the rotation sensors 127 and 128 and the tilt sensor 147. 148, while inputting the signal of the feeding sensor 171, the rotation motor 122, the tilting motor 143, and the feeding motor 162 are driven to move the movable accessory 111 to A and B in FIG. 4 and A and B in FIG. 5. The production operation is performed as shown in FIG.

  In the movable accessory effect process (S3002), first, as shown in FIG. 27, the lamp control unit 100 determines whether or not the movable accessory 111 is in the effect operation (S3201, S3202, S3203, S3204, S3205, S3206, S3207), that is, if L is 7 (YES in S3201), the process proceeds to step S3253. If L is 6 (YES in S3202), the process proceeds to step S3247, and L is 5. (S3203: YES), the process proceeds to step S3243. If L is 4 (S3204: YES), the process proceeds to step S3239. If L is 3 (S3205: YES), the process proceeds to step S3237. Is 2 (YES in S3206), the process proceeds to step S3233, and if L is 1 (YES in S3207), the process proceeds to step S3229. In other words, if L is not 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 (in other words, if L is 0), each step S3201, S3202, S3203, S3204, S3205, S3206, In S3207, the result is NO, the process proceeds to step S3208, and it is determined whether or not the effect start flag is ON.

  If the production start flag is ON in step S3208, the process proceeds to step S3225. If not, it is determined whether the preparation completion flag is ON (S3209). If it is ON, the process proceeds to step S3217. If it is not ON, it is determined whether or not a movable accessory effect start command has been received (S3210). If not received, the process is terminated. It is determined whether or not it is arranged at the position (origin position) P1 (S3211).

  The ready flag indicates that when the movable accessory 111 operates the feeding motor 162 to pay out the gimmick 161, the movable accessory 111 at the tilt completion position KB is accurately rotated by 180 ° around the rotation axis RC, and the rear position is set. If it is not arranged on the PB, the gimmick 161 interferes with the surrounding display screen 19a or the like, or the appearance of the gimmick 161 at the time of completion of drawing is deteriorated. This is for arranging in advance at the first reference position (front position) P1 at the tilt initial position KF of the accessory 111. If the return operation is required as NO in step S3211, the movable accessory 111 is rotated so as to return to the first reference position P1.

  Therefore, the lamp control unit 100 determines whether or not the movable accessory (decorative body) 111 is disposed at the first reference position P1 in step S3211 based on the presence / absence of the ON signal of the rotation sensor 127. If it is not arranged at the reference position P1 (at this time, the orientation of the display area 20a is changed so that the player can easily see it, and it is arranged at the third reference position P3, which is shifted from the first reference position P1. The previous operation amount AM3 is called from the operation amount storage unit 103a of the RAM 103 (S3212), and the rotation motor 122 is driven to return so as to return to the first reference position P1 (S3213).
