Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine provided with an accessory means.

  In a conventional gaming machine, a technique has been proposed in which a bevel gear is connected to a gear connected to a motor and power is transmitted to rotating shafts having different angles (for example, see Patent Document 1). Furthermore, taking advantage of the characteristics of such a bevel gear, it is moved by rotation of a motor, a connecting rod rotated by the motor and having bevel gears at both ends, and a gear meshing with one bevel gear of the connecting rod. A gaming machine including a first movable member that moves and a second movable member that moves by rotation of a gear meshing with the other bevel gear is also proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 2).

JP 2008-264428 A JP2013-236802A

  In the gaming machine described in Patent Document 2, since the rotation axis of the first movable member and the rotation axis of the second movable member are parallel to each other, the first movable member and the second movable member are parallel to each other and symmetrical. Could only be moved to.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a gaming machine capable of operating a rotating body and a movable member having different rotation shaft angles with a single driving means.

  A gaming machine according to the present invention is a rotary body that is supported rotatably about a first rotation axis that extends parallel to a game board surface, and that includes a side surface that imitates a figure or a symbol around the axis of the first rotation axis. A movable member supported rotatably about a second rotation shaft extending in a direction intersecting the axial direction of the first rotation shaft, a drive means, and the power of the drive means to the first rotation shaft It is characterized by comprising an accessory means comprising a first transmitting means for transmitting and a second transmitting means for transmitting the power of the first rotating shaft to the second rotating shaft.

  In the gaming machine according to the present invention, since the rotating body and the movable member having different rotation shaft angles can be operated with one driving means, the cost for the driving means can be reduced because a plurality of driving means are not used. . Further, since the operation timing of the rotating body and the operation timing of the movable member do not deviate from each other, it is possible to produce a natural effect by combining the operations of the rotating body and the movable member as a single operation.

  The first transmission means includes a first spur gear provided on the output shaft of the motor and a second spur gear provided on the first rotation shaft and meshing with the first spur gear. The transmission means has a first bevel gear provided on the first rotating shaft, an intersecting axis extending in parallel with the second rotating shaft and intersecting the axis of the first bevel gear, and the first bevel gear A second bevel gear that meshes with the gear may be provided, and the rotating power of the second bevel gear may be transmitted to the second rotation shaft. The first rotation shaft that is the rotation center of the rotating body and the second rotation shaft that is the rotation center of the movable member intersect each other, but by using the first bevel gear and the second bevel gear, the driving means The power of the first rotating shaft that rotates with the power of can be accurately transmitted to the second rotating shaft. Since the shaft of the second bevel gear and the second rotation shaft are parallel to each other, it is easy to transmit the power of the bevel gear to the second rotation shaft.

  The second transmission means may include one or a plurality of gears for transmitting the power of the second bevel gear to the second rotation shaft. The second transmission means can transmit the power of the second bevel gear to the second rotating shaft by using one or a plurality of gears (for example, spur gears). By using a plurality of gears, power can be transmitted even if the second bevel gear and the second rotation shaft are separated.

  The side surface portion of the rotator includes a first face portion that imitates the character's face and a second face portion that looks like a face approaching the first face portion. The movable member is rotatable about the second rotation axis on the front side of the rotating body and at least one end side in the axial direction of the rotating body. The arm part is an arm part, and the accessory means overlaps the arm part on the front side of the rotating body in response to rotating the rotating body to a normal position where the first face part is forward. The arm portion is moved away from the front side of the rotating body according to the first state of rotating the rotating body and rotating the rotating body from the normal position to the operating position where the second face portion is forward. It may be possible to switch to the second state to be rotated. When the accessory means is switched from the first state to the second state, the rotating body rotates so that the second face portion faces forward, and the arm portion rotates away from the rotating body. Since the second face is wrinkled with a face that protrudes closer to the front than the first face, the face turns forward and at the same time the arm turns away from the rotation, so the player side The second face is more emphasized when viewed from above. As a result, it is possible to dynamically create a scene in which the character's face protrudes toward you.

  The first rotation shaft may extend in the left-right direction, and the second rotation shaft may extend in the front-rear direction. Since the first rotating shaft extends in the left-right direction, a rotating body that is long in the left-right direction can be used. As a result, the face of the character can be expressed with a long area in the left-right direction, so that the facial expression can be clearly expressed. Further, since the rotating body is long in the left-right direction, facial expressions can be expressed even if the height in the vertical direction is shortened. Thereby, an accessory means can be arrange | positioned so that it may not become obstructive to a game board surface.

A rubber upper restriction portion 355 (see FIG. 7) is fixed to the upper edge portion of the insertion hole 353, and a rubber lower restriction portion 356 (see FIG. 7) is fixed to the lower edge portion. The upper restricting portion 355 contacts the contact piece 81A that moves upward through the insertion hole 353, and the lower restricting portion 356 contacts the contact piece 81A that moves downward through the insertion hole 353. Therefore, the insertion hole 353, the upper restriction portion 355, and the lower restriction portion 356 restrict the rotation range of the first gear 81.

  The left gear holding portion 36 is provided so as to extend to the left side from the front end portion of the left wall portion 33 and is formed in a substantially box shape having an open front surface. A left gear mechanism 70 (see FIG. 8) is held inside the left gear holding portion 36. A left decorative plate 361 is fixed to the front surface of the left gear holding portion 36 and closes the opening of the left gear holding portion 36. As shown in FIG. 8, a gear sensor 79 is provided inside the left gear holding portion 36. The gear sensor 79 is disposed immediately above the left gear mechanism 70 and is connected to the effect board 100 via wiring (not shown). The gear sensor 79 detects the position of the third gear 73 by detecting a detection plate 733 fixed to a third gear 73 described later of the left gear mechanism 70. The gear sensor 79 outputs a detection signal to the effect board 100. The effect board 100 knows the positions of the effect body 40, the right hand arm portion 61, and the left hand arm portion 62 based on the received detection signal, so whether the accessory device 20 is in the first state or the second state. Can be recognized. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 8, the motor 95 is fixed to the back surface of the left gear holding portion 36 via a fixing member 700 made of a transparent resin. The output shaft 951 of the motor 95 extends substantially horizontally toward the right and is connected to the left gear mechanism 70. The motor 95 is connected to the effect board 100 via wiring (not shown). Electric power is supplied to the motor 95 from the effect board 100 via wiring.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the lower wall portion 37 is provided between the lower end portion of the right gear holding portion 35 and the lower end portion of the left gear holding portion 36, and has a substantially box shape that is long in the left-right direction and opens on the front side. Formed. The inside of the lower wall portion 37 communicates with the inside of each of the right gear holding portion 35 and the left gear holding portion 36. A light emitting substrate 110 that is long in the left-right direction is attached to the inside of the lower wall portion 37. A plurality of LEDs 111 are arranged in the left-right direction on the front surface of the light emitting substrate 110. The plurality of LEDs 111 illuminate forward by turning on or blinking. A decorative plate 39 made of transparent resin (see FIGS. 3 and 4) is fixed to the front surface of the lower wall portion 37 that opens. On the front surface of the decorative plate 39, an irregularly shaped irregular surface is formed. The uneven surface of the decorative plate 39 can diffusely reflect the light emitted from the light emitting substrate 110. As a result, the entire decorative board 39 appears to glitter. Further, a rib-shaped lower wall 371 that protrudes forward along the lower end portion of the lower wall portion 37 is provided. On the upper surface of the lower wall 371, a plurality of vertical grooves extending in the front-rear direction are provided side by side in the left-right direction. Thereby, since the light irradiated from several LED111 of the light emission board | substrate 110 reflects in a vertical groove, the lower wall 371 looks shining.

  The configuration of the left gear mechanism 70 will be described with reference to FIGS. The left gear mechanism 70 converts the driving force of the motor 95 into power for rotating the effect body 40 and power for moving the left hand arm 62 up and down. The left gear mechanism 70 includes a first gear 71, a second gear 72, a third gear 73, a fourth gear 74, a fifth gear 75, and the like. As shown in FIG. 8, the first gear 71 is fixed to an output shaft 951 extending to the right of the motor 95 and rotates integrally with the output shaft 951. The second gear 72 is rotatably supported on the front side of the first gear 71 and has an axis extending in parallel with the axis extending in the left-right direction of the first gear 71. The second gear 72 includes a gear portion 721 and a bevel gear portion 722 on the same axis. The gear portion 721 is disposed on the right side and the bevel gear portion 722 is disposed on the left side. The gear part 721 meshes with the first gear 71. Therefore, the second gear 72 rotates as the first gear 71 rotates. A rotation shaft 725 extending in the left-right direction is inserted and fixed in the shaft hole (not shown) of the second gear 72. The right end portion of the rotation shaft 725 is inserted and fixed in a shaft hole (not shown) of a left shaft portion 441 described later of the effect body 40. Therefore, the production body 40 rotates in the same direction as the second gear 72 as the second gear 72 rotates.

  The third gear 73 is rotatably supported on the left front side of the second gear 72, and has an axis that is orthogonal to the axis extending in the left-right direction of the second gear 72 and that extends in the front-rear direction. The third gear 73 includes a bevel gear portion 731 and a gear portion 732 on the same axis. The bevel gear portion 731 is disposed on the rear side, and the gear portion 732 is disposed on the front side. The bevel gear portion 731 meshes in a direction orthogonal to the bevel gear portion 722 of the second gear 72. Therefore, the third gear 73 rotates as the second gear 72 rotates. The fourth gear 74 is rotatably supported immediately below the third gear 73 and has an axis extending in parallel with the axis extending in the front-rear direction of the third gear 73. The fourth gear 74 meshes with the gear portion 741 of the third gear 73. Therefore, the fourth gear 74 rotates as the third gear 73 rotates.

  The fifth gear 75 is rotatably supported on the right side of the fourth gear 74, and has an axis extending in parallel with the axis extending in the front-rear direction of the fourth gear 74. The fifth gear 75 meshes with the fourth gear 74. Therefore, the fifth gear 75 rotates as the fourth gear 74 rotates. A rear end portion of a rotating shaft 751 extending in the front-rear direction is inserted and fixed in a central shaft hole (not shown) of the fifth gear 75. Therefore, the rotating shaft 751 rotates integrally with the fifth gear 75. One end portion in the longitudinal direction of an arm portion 622 (described later) of the left hand arm portion 62 is fixed to the front end portion of the rotation shaft 751 in a direction perpendicular to the front end portion. The arm portion 622 extends to the right side. Therefore, as the rotation shaft 761 rotates, the arm portion 622 rotates around the rotation shaft 761 so that the left hand arm portion 62 moves up and down.

  The configuration of the right gear mechanism 80 will be described with reference to FIGS. The right gear mechanism 80 converts the rotational driving force of the effector 40 into power that moves the right hand arm 61 up and down. The right gear mechanism 80 includes a first gear 81, a second gear 82, a third gear 83, a fourth gear 84, and the like. As shown in FIG. 8, the first gear 81 is a bevel gear. The right end portion of the rotating shaft 811 extending in the left-right direction is inserted and fixed in the shaft hole (not shown) of the first gear 81. The left end portion of the rotation shaft 811 is inserted and fixed in the shaft hole (see FIG. 11) of the right shaft portion 431 of the effect body 40. Therefore, the first gear 81 rotates integrally with the effector 40 via the rotation shaft 811. The first gear 81 is provided with a fan-shaped contact piece 81A (see FIG. 7). The contact piece 81 </ b> A rotates around the rotation shaft 841 integrally with the first gear 81. The contact piece 81 </ b> A is inserted through an insertion hole 353 provided on the back side of the right gear holding unit 35. As the first gear 81 rotates, the contact piece 81 </ b> A can move in the vertical direction within the range of the insertion hole 353.

  The second gear 82 is rotatably supported on the right oblique front side of the first gear 81, and has an axis that is orthogonal to the axis extending in the left-right direction of the first gear 81 and that extends in the front-rear direction. The second gear 82 includes a gear portion 821 and a bevel gear portion 822 on the same axis. The gear portion 821 is disposed on the front side, and the bevel gear portion 822 is disposed on the rear side. The bevel gear portion 822 meshes with the first gear 81 in a direction orthogonal to the first gear 81. Therefore, the second gear 82 rotates as the first gear 81 rotates.

  The third gear 83 is rotatably supported immediately below the second gear 82 and has an axis extending in parallel with an axis extending in the front-rear direction of the second gear 82. The third gear 83 meshes with the gear portion 821 of the second gear 82. Therefore, the third gear 83 rotates as the second gear 82 rotates. The fourth gear 84 is rotatably supported on the left side of the third gear 83 and has an axis extending in parallel with the axis extending in the front-rear direction of the third gear 83. The fourth gear 84 meshes with the third gear 83. Therefore, the fourth gear 84 rotates as the third gear 83 rotates. A rear end portion of the rotation shaft 841 extending in the front-rear direction is inserted and fixed in a central shaft hole (not shown) of the fourth gear 84. Therefore, the rotating shaft 841 rotates integrally with the fourth gear 84. At the front end of the rotating shaft 841, one end in the longitudinal direction of an arm 612, which will be described later, of the right hand arm 61 is fixed in a perpendicular direction. The arm portion 612 extends to the left side. Therefore, as the rotation shaft 841 rotates, the arm portion 612 rotates around the rotation shaft 841 so that the right hand arm portion 61 moves up and down.

  The structure of the right hand arm part 61 and the left hand arm part 62 will be described with reference to FIG. The right hand arm unit 61 includes a fist unit 611 and an arm unit 612. The arm portion 612 is long and represents the right arm portion of the character. As described above, one end portion of the arm portion 612 in the longitudinal direction is fixed in a direction orthogonal to the front end portion of the rotation shaft 841 of the right gear mechanism 80. The arm portion 612 extends leftward from the front end portion of the rotation shaft 841. The fist unit 611 represents the right fist of the character. The fist part 611 is fixed to the other end of the arm part 612. The size of the fist unit 611 is not limited, but is preferably large so as to be conspicuous with respect to the production body 40. (See FIGS. 7 and 18).

  The left hand arm unit 62 includes a fist unit 621 and an arm unit 622 in the same manner as the right hand arm unit 61. The arm 622 is also long and represents the left arm of the character.

The first surface 91 of the light emitting substrate 90 faces the inner surface of the second decorative member 52 with a gap. Further, the position P2 of the front end portion of the light emitting substrate 90 is in front of the position P1 of the rear end portion of the inclined portion 46 in the bottom wall portion 42 of the main body member 41. Therefore, since the plurality of LEDs 921 provided on the front end side of the second surface 92 of the light emitting substrate 90 face the upper surface of the inclined portion 46, the light emitted from the LEDs 921 is reflected to the inclined portion 46, and the first decorative member 51 can be irradiated. The light emitting substrate 90 is connected to the effect substrate 100 via the cable 101. Therefore, the effect board 100 controls the light emission mode of the LEDs 911 and 921 provided on the light emitting board 90.

  The shape and fixing method of the first decorative member 51 will be described with reference to FIG. The first decorative member 51 is a substantially planar plate member, and includes a first decorative surface 51A on the outer surface thereof. The first decorative surface 51A has a natural and calm expression that is a face portion of a rabbit character. In order to express the character's face, for example, both eyes, nose and mouth are formed. The first decorative surface 51 </ b> A can visually recognize the character's face in three dimensions by expressing the uneven shape of the face by the uneven surface formed on the plane. On the back surface of the first decorative member 51 (the surface opposite to the first decorative surface 51A), the upper portions of the left and right end portions and the substantially central portion of the lower end portion are connected from the back surface of the first decorative member 51. A substantially cylindrical fixing pin (not shown) protruding in a substantially vertical direction is provided. These three fixing pins are fastened with screws to the fixing holes 462 of the two support walls 461 provided in the inclined portion 46 of the main body member 41 and the fixing holes 464 of the one support wall 463.

The first decorative member 51 is preferably formed of a light transmissive resin.

  The shape and fixing method of the frame portion 53 will be described with reference to FIGS. The frame portion 53 is a substantially rectangular frame body as viewed from the front. The frame portion 53 is disposed along the outer peripheral edge portion of the first decorative surface 51 </ b> A of the first decorative member 51. Locking claws 531 (see FIG. 12) are provided on the upper portions of the left and right ends of the frame portion 53, respectively. Further, fixing holes (not shown) are respectively provided at both corners on the lower side of the frame portion 53. The frame portion 53 is positioned with respect to the front side of the main body member 41 to which the first decorative member 51 is fixed first, and a pair of left and right engaging claws 531 are provided on the right side wall portion 43 of the main body member 41. The locking holes 433 and the first locking holes 443 provided in the left side wall 44 are respectively locked. Two fixing holes (not shown) provided at both lower corners of the frame portion 53 are positioned at fixing holes 49A and 49B provided at the lower right corner and the lower left corner on the front side of the main body member 41, respectively. Align and fasten with screws. Thereby, the frame part 53 is fixed to the outer peripheral edge part of the first decorative surface 51A of the first decorative member 51.

  The shape and fixing method of the second decorative member 52 will be described with reference to FIGS. The second decorative member 52 is a plate member formed in a substantially arc shape in cross section so as to bulge outwardly and has a second decorative surface 52A on its outer surface. Therefore, the second decorative surface 52A is formed as an arc surface. On the second decorative surface 52A, a facial part of the same character as the first decorative surface 51A, which is more excited than the facial expression of the first decorative surface 51A, is glazed. The excited expression can be expressed by, for example, enlarging each part of both eyes, nose, and mouth more than each part of the first decorative surface 51A. Furthermore, the second decorative surface 52A expresses the uneven shape of the face on an arc surface that bulges outward, thereby making the character's face more three-dimensional than the first decorative surface 51A. It can be visually recognized. Since the second decorative surface 52A does not have the frame portion 53 disposed on the outer edge portion of the first decorative surface 51A, the character's face can be more emphasized and visually recognized. The second decorative member 52 is also preferably made of a light transmissive resin.

  On the back surface of the second decorative member 52 (the surface opposite to the second decorative surface 52A), the right side, the center, and the left side of the upper end portion are substantially cylindrical shapes that protrude in a substantially vertical direction from the back surface of the second decorative member 52. Fixing pins (not shown) are provided. These three fixing pins are positioned in three holes (not shown) provided in the rear end portion of the flat portion 45 of the main body member 41, and screws are fastened. Further, on the back surface of the second decorative member 52, a locking claw 521 (only the locking claw 521 on the right end side is shown in FIG. 12) is provided at both the left and right ends and the center of the lower end. Of these three locking claws 521, the left and right locking claws 521 include a second locking hole 434 provided in the right side wall 43 of the main body member 41 and a second locking claw provided in the left side wall 44. The holes 444 are respectively locked. The locking claw on the lower end side is engaged with a rib provided along the upper end portion of the first decorative member 51. Thereby, the first decorative member 51 is fixed to the front side of the main body member 41.

  With reference to FIGS. 8, 16, and 17, the effect produced from the difference between the distance from the axis of the rotation shafts 725 and 811 of the effector 40 to the first decorative member 51 and the distance to the second decorative member 52 will be described. To do. As shown in FIG. 8, the rotation center of the effect body 40 is the rotation shafts 725 and 811 inserted and fixed to the right shaft portion 431 and the left shaft portion 441, respectively. The rotation shafts 725 and 811 are on the same axis line. As shown in FIG. 16, the distance (for example, the shortest distance) to the 1st decoration member 51 in the direction orthogonal to the axis line of the rotating shaft 725,811 is set to L1. A separation distance (for example, the shortest distance) to the second decorative member 52 in a direction orthogonal to the axis of the rotation shafts 725 and 811 is L2. In the effect body 40 of the present embodiment, the distance L2 is adjusted to be longer than the distance L1. Thereby, as shown in FIG. 17, the position of the second decorative surface 52A when the second decorative surface 52A is directed forward is the position of the first decorative surface 51A when the first decorative surface 51A is directed forward. It is arranged more forward than Therefore, the accessory device 20 changes the face of the character from the first state in which the first decorative surface 51A faces forward to the second state in which the rendering body 40 is rotated and the second decorative surface 52A is directed forward. It is possible to produce an effect as if it is moving forward.

  The operation of the accessory device 20 will be described with reference to FIGS. 7 to 10, 16, and 17. For example, when the pachinko machine 1 is in a normal gaming state, the accessory device 20 maintains the first state. When the pachinko machine 1 shifts to a specific gaming state (for example, reach state, jackpot state, etc.), the accessory device 20 switches from the first state to the second state. Hereinafter, the positional relationship of each member of the accessory device 20 in the first state and the operation when switching from the first state to the second state will be described.

-First state-
As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, in the first state, the first decorative surface 51A of the effect body 40 is disposed forward. The fist portion 611 of the right hand arm portion 61 is disposed on the right and front side of the first decorative surface 51A, and the fist portion 621 of the left hand arm portion 62 is disposed on the left and front side of the first decorative surface 51A. Therefore, the fist parts 611 and 621 are arranged so as to overlap the front side of the first decorative surface 51A. A frame portion 53 is disposed along the outer peripheral edge portion of the first decorative surface 51A. Accordingly, the accessory device 20 in the first state allows the rabbit character to look into the face from the rear of the frame portion 53, and at the front side of the frame portion 53, the right fist and the left fist are placed at the face height position. You can express the appearance. In this state, since the face, the frame, and both arms are arranged in this order from the back side toward the front side, the character's face and both arms can be expressed in a deep manner. Furthermore, since the face is arranged on the innermost side, it is possible to express a natural state where the character's feelings are calm.

  As shown in FIG. 16, inside the effector 40, the light emitting substrate 90 is arranged such that the first surface 91 faces upward and the second surface 92 faces downward. Therefore, the light reflected from the plurality of LEDs 911 and 921 provided on the first surface 91 and the second surface 92 is not directly applied to the first decorative member 51, but is reflected from the inside of the effect body 40. Light is irradiated. Further, the front end portion of the light emitting substrate 90 faces the inner surface of the first decorative member 51 with a gap therebetween, so that the first decorative surface 51A is not partially brightened, and the entire first decorative surface 51A. Can be made to shine evenly and softly.

  Further, the second surface 92 provided with the plurality of LEDs 921 is opposed to the inner surface of the bottom wall portion 42 of the main body member 41 with a gap, so that the light emitted from the plurality of LEDs 921 is transmitted to the inner surface of the bottom wall portion 42. Can be reflected. Thereby, when the accessory device 20 is in the first state, the first decorative member 51 can be irradiated with the light reflected on the inner surface of the bottom wall portion 42, so that the brightness of the first decorative surface 51A is maintained. Can do. Furthermore, since the bottom wall portion 42 is provided with an inclined portion 46 that is inclined toward the first decorative member 51, the light emitted from the plurality of LEDs 921 is reflected by the inner surface of the inclined portion 46, and the reflected light thereof. Can be irradiated to the first decorative member 51 side. As a result, the first decorative surface 51A can be made brighter. Moreover, since the plurality of LEDs 921 are arranged on the front end side on the second surface 92 of the light emitting substrate 90, the plurality of LEDs 921 can be brought closer to the first decorative surface 51A side. Thereby, the first decorative surface 51A can be made brighter.

-Second state-
For example, when the pachinko machine 1 shifts to a specific gaming state, as shown in FIG. 10, the effect board 100 drives the motor 95 and rotates the output shaft 951 counterclockwise when viewed from the left side. Then, the first gear 71 rotates counterclockwise together with the output shaft 951. Accordingly, the second gear 72 that meshes with the first gear 71 and the gear portion 721 rotates clockwise. Along with the rotation of the second gear 72, the rotation shaft 725 fixed to the second gear 72 and the effect body 40 fixed to the rotation shaft 725 rotate clockwise (frontward). When the effect body 40 rotates clockwise, the first decorative surface 51 </ b> A rotates downward and is hidden inside the support member 30. The second decorative surface 52A rotates so as to descend from above. As the effect body 40 rotates clockwise, the rotation shaft 811 fixed to the effect body 40 and the first gear 81 fixed to the rotation shaft 811 rotate clockwise. At this time, the contact piece 81 </ b> A provided in the first gear 81 rotates integrally with the first gear 81 and moves upward inside the insertion hole 353 provided in the right gear holding portion 35. When the contact piece 81 </ b> A contacts the upper restricting portion 355 fixed to the upper edge portion of the insertion hole 353, the rotation of the first gear 81 is restricted. The effect board 100 stops the motor 95 and stops the rotation of the effect body 40. At this time, the effect body 40 is in a state where the second decorative surface 52A is directed to the front.

  In the left gear mechanism 70, as the second gear 72 rotates clockwise, the third gear 73 with which the bevel gear portion 731 meshes with the bevel gear portion 722 of the second gear 72 is a front view clock. Rotate around. Although the axial direction of the second gear 72 and the axial direction of the third gear 73 are orthogonal to each other, the bevel gear portions 722 and 731 mesh with each other, so that the power of the second gear 72 is increased. It is transmitted well to the third gear 73. As the third gear 73 rotates, the fourth gear 74 rotates counterclockwise. As the fourth gear 74 rotates, the fifth gear 75 rotates clockwise. Along with the rotation of the fifth gear 75, the rotation shaft 751 fixed to the fifth gear 75 rotates clockwise. As the rotation shaft 751 rotates, the arm portion 622 of the left hand arm portion 62 rotates clockwise around the rotation shaft 751, so that the fist portion 621 moves greatly downward.

  In the right gear mechanism 80, the rotation shaft 811 fixed to the rendering body 40 and the first gear 81 fixed to the rotation shaft 811 rotate clockwise as the rendering body 40 rotates clockwise. To do. As the first gear 81 rotates clockwise, the second gear 82 that engages the bevel gear portion 822 with the first gear 81 rotates counterclockwise when viewed from the front. The axial direction of the first gear 81 and the axial direction of the second gear 82 are orthogonal to each other, but the first gear 81 that is a bevel gear and the bevel gear portion 822 of the second gear 82 are By meshing, the power of the first gear 81 is satisfactorily transmitted to the second gear 82. As the second gear 82 rotates, the third gear 83 rotates clockwise. As the third gear 83 rotates, the fourth gear 84 rotates counterclockwise. Along with the rotation of the fourth gear 84, the rotation shaft 841 fixed to the fourth gear 84 rotates counterclockwise. As the rotation shaft 841 rotates, the arm portion 612 of the right hand arm portion 61 rotates counterclockwise around the rotation shaft 841, so that the fist portion 611 also moves greatly downward.

  Therefore, at the same time that the effect body 40 rotates and switches from the first decorative surface 51A to the second decorative surface 52A, the right hand arm portion 61 and the left hand arm portion 62 can be moved downward. With one motor 95, it is possible to operate the rendering body 40, the right hand arm portion 61, and the left hand arm portion 62 having different rotation axis angles. That is, since a plurality of motors are not used, the cost for the motors can be reduced. In addition, since the operation timing of the rendering body 40 and the operation timing of the right hand arm portion 61 and the left hand arm portion 62 are not shifted, the operations of the rendering body 40, the right hand arm portion 61, and the left hand arm portion 62 are performed in a single manner. It can be produced as a unified natural action.

  By switching from the first decorative surface 51A to the second decorative surface 52A, the character that has been a calm expression so far changes suddenly into an excited expression. Further, in the second decorative surface 52A, the frame portion 53 arranged on the front side of the first decorative surface 51A is also eliminated, and the right hand arm portion 61 and the left hand arm portion 62 are also moved to the lower side of the second decorative surface 52A. Thus, the face of the character deceived by the second decorative surface 52A is more emphasized. Furthermore, since the second decorative surface 52A is disposed on the front side of the first decorative surface 51A, the accessory device 20 supports the left and right arms lowered downward and supports the inside of the frame portion 53. You can dynamically express a scene that jumps over and jumps forward.

  As illustrated in FIG. 17, the first surface 91 of the light emitting substrate 90 is disposed on the inner side of the effector 40 so as to face forward. Therefore, since the light emitted from the plurality of LEDs 911 provided on the first surface 91 is directly applied to the second decorative member 52 facing the front, the second decorative member 52 is compared with the first decorative surface 51A. The surface 52A can be strongly illuminated. Thereby, the expression of the excited rabbit character can be more emphasized.

  Thus, since the one light emission board | substrate 90 is provided inside the production | presentation body 40 and this light emission board | substrate 90 is rotated integrally with the production | presentation body 40, the 1st decoration surface 51A and the 2nd decoration surface 52A from which brightness differs are different. Can be easily switched according to the gaming state. Therefore, it is not necessary to provide a plurality of light emitting substrates corresponding to the first decorative surface 51A and the second decorative surface 52A, and the first decorative surface 51A and the first decorative surface 51A that emit light in different modes on one light emitting substrate 90 are provided. Since the two decorative surfaces 52A can be created, the cost for the light emitting substrate can be reduced.

  In addition, when switching from the first state to the second state, when the accessory device 20 is viewed from the front, the right arm portion 61 and the left arm portion 62 are also aligned with the operation in which the effector 40 rotates downward from above. Move from top to bottom. In other words, the right hand arm 61 and the left hand arm 62 move in accordance with the rotation direction of the effect body 40, and the moving speed thereof can be made substantially the same. Therefore, the operation of the effect body 40, the right hand arm 61, and the left arm The movement of the part 62 can be impressed by the player as the movement of a single character.

  Although not described in detail, when the accessory device 20 is switched from the second state to the first state, an operation opposite to the above operation may be performed. By rotating the output shaft 951 of the motor 95 clockwise as viewed from the left side, the rotation direction of each gear is reversed, so that the second state can be switched to the first state.

  With reference to FIG. 18, FIG. 19, the visual effect produced by the difference in the area where the right hand arm part 61 and the left hand arm part 62 overlap with the effect body 40 when the accessory apparatus 20 is seen from the front is demonstrated. As shown in FIG. 18, in the first state, the front surface of the effect body 40 is configured by a first decorative surface 51 </ b> A and a frame portion 53. The right hand arm portion 61 and the left hand arm portion 62 are disposed on the left and right sides of the front surface of the effect body 40, and the right fist portion 611 overlaps with a region on the right side of the front surface of the effect body 40. The left fist unit 621 is arranged so as to overlap an area of about ¼ on the left side of the front surface of the effect body 40. Since the large fist parts 611 and 621 are arranged on the foremost side and on both the left and right sides of the front surface of the production body 40, the fist parts 611 and 621 are more than the first decorative surface 51A arranged on the farthest side. More emphasized. Here, the overlapping areas of the fist portions 611 and 621 with respect to the first decorative surface 51A and the frame portion 53 in the first state are S1 and S2. As the overlapping areas S1 and S2 are larger, the first decorative surface 51A and the frame portion 53 are hidden, so that the face obscured by the first decorative surface 51A becomes inconspicuous.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 19, when the first state is switched to the second state, the front surface of the production body 40 is configured only by the second decorative surface 52 </ b> A. Since the character face of the character is enlarging as much as possible on the second decorative surface 52A, the second decorative surface 52A alone protrudes closer to the front side than the face concealed on the first decorative surface 51A. It looks like Then, the right hand arm portion 61 and the left hand arm portion 62 are greatly lowered to the lower end position of the second decorative surface 52A, and most of the fist portions 611 and 621 are detached from the front surface of the second decorative surface 52A.

  Here, the overlapping areas of the fist portions 611 and 621 with respect to the second decorative surface 52A in the second state are S3 and S4. At this time, the overlapping areas S3 and S4 of the fist parts 611 and 621 in the second state are significantly smaller than the overlapping areas S1 and S2 of the fist parts 611 and 621 in the first state. Therefore, when the production body 40 is viewed from the front, there is almost nothing blocking the second decorative surface 52A, so that the face defaced by the second decorative surface 52A rather than the right hand arm portion 61 and the left hand arm portion 62. The character's face, which has been more emphasized and has been placed farther up until now, can effectively produce a dynamic action as if it was approaching. Note that the greater the difference between the overlapping areas S1 and S2 and the overlapping areas S3 and S4, the greater the expectation that the face worn by the second decorative surface 52A will be emphasized.

  In the second state, the right hand arm portion 61 and the left hand arm portion 62 are greatly moved to a position below the second decorative surface 52A and where the fist portions 611 and 621 do not overlap the second decorative surface 52A. (That is, the overlapping areas S3 and S4 = 0). However, in that case, since the front-rear relationship between the right hand arm portion 61 and the left hand arm portion 62 and the second decorative surface 52A is lost, the impression of the right hand arm portion 61 and the left hand arm portion 62 may be diminished. Therefore, it is preferable that at least a part of the right hand arm portion 61 and the left hand arm portion 62 overlap with the second decorative surface 52A. As a result, while maintaining the relationship between the face worn by the second decorative surface 52A and the right hand arm 61 and the left hand arm 62, a dynamic action as if it has come out in front of the character's face is effective. Can be directed.
