  The light emitting effect device 1000 includes a light emitting device 1001 having a plurality of light emitting units 1001a and 1001b that emit light, and a transmitting device 1003 having transmission units 1003a and 1003b that transmit light emitted from the light emitting device 1001 to the outside and a shielding unit 1003e that shields light. And a moving device 1002 that moves the light emitting device 1001 so as to move the relative positions of the light emitting device 1001 and the transmissive device 1003.

  The light emitting device 1001 has a predetermined number (for example, two) of light emitting units 1001a and 1001b in the upper part, and the predetermined number (for example, two) of the light emitting units 1001a and 1001b are arranged in a predetermined moving direction by the moving device 1002. Then, it is moved by a moving device 1002 to move in a predetermined trajectory. The light emitting units 1001a and 1001b are constituted by LEDs, for example, but the present invention is not limited to this, and any light emitting means may be used.

  The transmissive device 1003 covers the light emitting device 1001 and is configured so that light emitted by the light emitting units 1001a and 1001b does not leak to the outside. However, light emitted by the light emitting units 1001a and 1001b is transmitted to the outside only from the transmissive units 1003a and 1003b. To do. The transmissive portions 1003a and 1003b may have only openings or may have a transparent member such as a lens.

  The moving device 1002 relatively moves the light emitting device 1001 and the transmissive device 1003. Here, the light emitting device 1001 is configured to be linearly movable.

  When the light emitting device 1001 is moved by the moving device 1002, the relative positions of the light emitting units 1001a and 1001b and the transmitting units 1003a and 1003b change, and when the light emitting units 1001a and 1001b approach the transmitting units 1003a and 1003b, the light emitting units 1001a and 1003b The light emitted by 1001b begins to be transmitted to the outside by the transmissive portions 1003a and 1003b, and when the light emitting portions 1001a and 1001b reach directly below the transmissive portions 1003a and 1003b, the maximum amount of light is transmitted to the outside.

  For example, as shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B, the light emitting device 1001 moves in a predetermined direction (for example, the left direction) from the state in which the light emitting unit 1001b is directly below the transmitting unit 1003a, and immediately below the transmitting unit 1003b. When the light emitting unit 1001a reaches the outside, it seems that the light has moved the distance from the transmitting unit 1003a to the transmitting unit 1003b from the outside, but the actual amount of movement of the light emitting device 1001 is from the transmitting unit 1003a to the transmitting unit 1003b. The distance from the light emitting unit 1001a to the light emitting unit 1001b is shorter than the distance. That is, according to this configuration, it is possible to show the player the movement of light having a movement distance longer than the actual movement distance, and it may be possible to improve the interest.

  In the examples of FIGS. 4 and 5, the example in which the light is moved along the linear trajectory has been described, but an example in the case where the light is moved along the circular trajectory will be described below.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining a first example in which light is moved in a circular orbit. The left side of the table shows a plan view showing the positional relationship between the light emitting part and the transmissive part, and the right side of the table shows the table. The top view corresponding to the left side and showing how the light emitted from the light emitting unit is seen from the outside is shown.

  In this example, the light emitting device 701 ′ having a predetermined shape (which may be any shape such as a circle or an ellipse) may be arranged on the circumference at a predetermined interval (for example, as long as the light emitting unit can be arranged on the circumference). A predetermined number (e.g., eight) of light emitting units 701a ′, 701b ′... Are provided at equal intervals, and the light emitting units are arranged above the light emitting device 701 ′ in substantially the same shape as the light emitting device 701 ′. The transmission device 703 ′ may be provided as long as it can be arranged, for example, any shape such as a circle or an ellipse.

  The light emitting device 701 ′ and the transmitting device 703 ′ rotate and move relative to each other about a circular center. In FIG. 6, the transmitting device 703 ′ is in a predetermined direction (for example, right) with respect to the light emitting device 701 ′. The case of rotating is shown.

  A predetermined number (for example, one) of transmissive portions 703a ′ of the transmissive devices 703 ′ are provided so as to be placed on a circular path through which the light emitting portions 701a ′, 701b ′,... Pass when the transmissive devices 703 ′ are rotated. .

  When the transmission device 703 ′ shown in the first row in the table is at a predetermined position (for example, an initial position), there is a light emitting unit 701a ′ immediately below the transmission unit 703a ′, and from the transmission unit 703a ′, the light emitting unit 701a. The light emission of 'is transmitted to the outside with the maximum amount of light.

  As the transmission device 703 ′ rotates in a predetermined direction (for example, right), light emission from the light emitting unit 701a ′ that is transmitted from the transmission unit 703a ′ gradually and continuously decreases, while adjacent to the light emitting unit 701a ′. The amount of light emitted from the light emitting unit 701b ′ transmitted from the transmitting unit 703a ′ gradually and continuously increases (see the second and third stages in the table).

  When the transmission device 703 ′ shown in the fourth row in the table is rotated by a predetermined angle (for example, 45 degrees) from a predetermined position (for example, the initial position) in a predetermined direction (for example, right), the transmission device 703 ′ is directly below the transmission unit 703a ′. There is a light emitting unit 701b ′, and light emitted from the light emitting unit 701b ′ is transmitted to the outside with a maximum light amount from the transmitting unit 703a ′.

  Subsequently, the continuous decrease and increase in the amount of transmitted light is repeated with the rotation of the transmission device 703 '.

  7A and 7B are diagrams for explaining a second example in which light is moved in a circular orbit, where FIG. 7A is a plan view, and FIG. 7B is a cross-sectional view along line BB in FIG.

  In this example, as in the first example, the light emitting device 701 ″ and the transmissive device 703 ″ have substantially the same predetermined shape (the light emitting portion may be arranged on the circumference, for example, any shape such as a circle or an ellipse). The transmission device 703 ″ rotates relative to the light emitting device 701 ″.

  The light emitting device 701 ″ includes two light emitting units 701 a ″ and 701 b ″ on the circumference. The transmissive device 703 ″ includes a predetermined number (for example, two) of transmissive portions 703 a ″ and 703 b ″ on the circumference.

  In this example, when the position of one light emitting portion 701a ″ and the position of one transmitting portion 703a ″ coincide with each other, the position of the other light emitting portion 701b ″ and the position of the other transmitting portion 703b ″. The light emitting portions 701a ″ and 701b ″ and the transmissive portions 703a ″ and 703b ″ are arranged so as not to coincide with each other.

  According to this configuration, there is a case where it is possible to produce an effect that improves the interest of the player by the light transmitted to the outside from the transmission portions 703a ″ and 703b ″.

  8A and 8B are diagrams for explaining a third example in which light is moved in a circular orbit, where FIG. 8A is a plan view and FIG. 8B is a cross-sectional view taken along the line C-C in FIG.

  In this example, the light emitting device 701 and the transmissive device 703 have substantially the same predetermined shape as in the first example (the light emitting unit may be arranged on the circumference, and may be any shape such as a circle or an ellipse). The transmission device 703 rotates about the shaft 702a with respect to the light emitting device 701.

  The light emitting device 701 includes a predetermined number (for example, three) of light emitting units 701a, 701b, and 701c at predetermined intervals (for example, approximately equal intervals, 120 ° intervals) on the circumference. The transmission device 703 includes a predetermined number (for example, four) of transmission parts 703a, 703b, 703c, and 703d at predetermined intervals (for example, approximately equal intervals, 90 ° intervals) on the circumference.

  A region where the transmission parts 703a, 703b, 703c, and 703d move in accordance with the rotation of the transmission device 703 is referred to herein as a track 703e. The track 703e has a width W corresponding to the size of the transmission parts 703a, 703b, 703c, and 703d. The light emission range of the light emitting units 701a, 701b, and 701c may be equal to the width W of the track 703e. Further, when the light emission range of the light emitting units 701a, 701b, and 701c is defined as a trajectory, the transmitting portions 703a, 703b, 703c, and 703d may be disposed on the trajectory.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining the movement of the example of FIG. 8. The left side of the table shows a plan view showing the positional relationship between the light emitting part and the transmissive part, and the right side of the table corresponds to the left side of the table and emits light. The top view which shows how the light from the exterior by a part is seen is shown.

  FIG. 9 shows a case where the transmission device 703 rotates to the right with respect to the light emitting device 701.

  When the transmission device 703 shown in the first row in the table is at a predetermined position (for example, an initial position), the light emitting unit 701a is located at a position corresponding to the transmission unit 703a (for example, directly below the transmission unit 703a). From 703a, the light emitted from the light emitting portion 701a is transmitted to the outside with the maximum amount of light. On the other hand, the amount of light transmitted from the transmission portions 703b and 703d is less than that of the transmission portion 703a, and the two light amounts are the same or different. Further, the amount of light transmitted from the transmission part 703c is less than or does not transmit through either of 703b and 703d.

  As the transmission device 703 rotates in a predetermined direction (for example, right), the light emission by the light emitting unit 701a transmitted from the transmission unit 703a gradually and continuously decreases, while the light emitting unit 701b adjacent to the light emitting unit 701a. The amount of light emitted by the light transmitted through the transmission portion 703b gradually and continuously increases to almost the same amount (see the second row in the table).

  When the transmission device 703 further rotates, the light emitting unit 701b is located at a position corresponding to the transmission unit 703a (for example, immediately below the transmission unit 703a), and the light emitted from the light emitting unit 701b is transmitted from the transmission unit 703b to the outside with the maximum light amount. On the other hand, the amount of light transmitted from the transmission portions 703b and 703d is less than that of the transmission portion 703a, and the two light amounts are the same or different. Further, the amount of light transmitted from the transmission part 703c is less than or not transmitted through either of 703b and 703d (see the third level in the table).

  Hereinafter, the continuous decrease and increase in the amount of transmitted light are repeated as the transmission device 703 rotates.

As shown, the light emitting units 1701a and 1701b are arranged on the circumference at a predetermined angle (for example, 180 °). In this arrangement, when the transmission device 703 is rotated, the transmission unit 703a and the light emission unit 1701a overlap each other, and the transmission unit 703c and the light emission unit 1701b overlap each other, and an effective presentation may not be obtained. .

The transmission device 1703 rotates with respect to the light emitting device 701.

  Similar to the light emitting device 701 of the third example, the light emitting device 701 includes a predetermined number (for example, three) of light emitting units 701a, 701b, and 701c at a predetermined interval (for example, substantially equal intervals, 120 ° intervals). The transmission device 1703 includes a predetermined number (for example, four) of transmission parts 703a, 703b, 703c, and 703d having a large diameter at predetermined intervals (for example, approximately equal intervals, 90 ° intervals), and further, for example, predetermined intervals (for example, A predetermined number (for example, four) of small-diameter transmission parts 703f, 703g, 703h, and 703i are provided at substantially equal intervals and 90 ° intervals.

The transmission device 2703 rotates with respect to the light emitting device 701.

  Similar to the light emitting device 701 of the fourth example, the light emitting device 701 includes a predetermined number (for example, three) of light emitting units 701a, 701b, and 701c at predetermined intervals (for example, approximately equal intervals, 120 ° intervals) on the circumference. Have. The transmission device 2703 has a predetermined number (for example, four) of transmission portions 703a, 703b, 703c, and 703d at predetermined intervals (for example, approximately equal intervals, 90 ° intervals) on the circumference, and further on the circumference. Wall portions 703j, 703k, 703m, and 703n extending in a predetermined light emission direction (for example, upward) so as to separate the transmission portions 703a, 703b, 703c, and 703d at a predetermined interval (for example, approximately equal intervals, 90 ° intervals). . The transmission parts 703a, 703b, 703c and 703d and the wall parts 703j, 703k, 703m and 703n may be alternately arranged at a predetermined interval (for example, at equal intervals).

  By arranging in this way, the light transmitted through the transmission part may be more clearly defined by the wall part, and there may be a case where it is possible to provide an effect that improves the interest of the player.

  In the fifth example, a space 703p is provided in the walls 703j, 703k, 703m, and 703n, and an opening 703 that is positioned perpendicular to the light emitting surfaces of the light emitting portions 701a, 701b, and 701c is provided.
