  Next, the circuit configuration of the pachinko gaming machine 1 will be described. In the pachinko gaming machine 1, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, a main board 11, an effect control board 12, an audio control board 13, an LED control board 14, various types of data transmitted between the main board 11 and the effect control board 12. Various boards such as a relay board 15 for relaying control signals, a payout control board, an information terminal board, a launch control board, and an interface board are arranged.

  The main board 11 is a main-side control board on which various circuits for controlling the progress of the game in the pachinko gaming machine 1 are mounted. The main board 11 is mainly addressed to a sub-side control board composed of a random number setting function used in a special game, a function of inputting a signal from a switch or the like disposed at a predetermined position, and an effect control board 12. A function of outputting and transmitting a control command as an example of command information as a control signal, a function of outputting various information to a hall management computer, and the like are provided. In addition, the main board 11 performs on / off control of each LED (for example, segment LED) constituting the first special symbol display 4A and the second special symbol display 4B, and thereby the first special diagram and the second special diagram. The display of fluctuation of a predetermined display pattern such as controlling the fluctuation display of the normal symbol display 20 or controlling the fluctuation display of the normal symbol by the normal symbol display 20 by controlling the lighting / extinguishing / coloring control of the normal symbol display 20 is performed. It also has a function to control. On the main board 11, for example, a game control microcomputer 100, a switch circuit 110, a solenoid circuit 111, and the like are mounted.

  As shown in FIG. 2, detection signals from the gate switch 21, the first start port switch 22 </ b> A, the second start port switch 22 </ b> B, and the count switch 23 that detect the game ball that has passed through the pass gate 41 are displayed on the main board 11.

Wiring for transmitting a command signal is connected.

  The control signal transmitted from the main board 11 toward the effect control board 12 is an effect control command transmitted and received as an electric signal, for example. The effect control command includes, for example, a change pattern designation command indicating a change pattern indicating a change mode such as a change time of an effect symbol, a type of reach effect, and the presence / absence of a pseudo-ream.

  The game control microcomputer 100 mounted on the main board 11 is, for example, a one-chip microcomputer, and provides a ROM 101 (ReadOnlyMemory 101) for storing a game control program, fixed data, and the like, and a game control work area. RAM 102 (Random Access Memory 102), CPU 103 (Central Processing Unit 103) that executes a control program by executing a game control program, random number circuit 104 that updates numerical data indicating a random number value independently of CPU 103, and I / O 105 (Input / Outputport 105). As an example, in the game control microcomputer 100, a process for controlling the progress of the game in the pachinko gaming machine 1 is executed by the CPU 103 executing a program read from the ROM 101.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the effect control board 12 is a sub-side control board independent of the main board 11, receives a control signal transmitted from the main board 11 via the relay board 15, and receives the speaker 8 </ b> L. , 8R, production LED 9 and production display device 5 for controlling production operations by production electrical components, and various circuits for detecting the operation of electrical components such as stick controller 31A and push button 31B.

And are installed. As an example, in the effect control board 12, when the effect control CPU 120 executes an effect control program read from the ROM 121, a process for controlling the effect operation by the effect electric component is executed. In addition to the effect control program, the ROM 121 stores various data tables used for controlling the effect operation.

  Next, the progress of the game in the pachinko gaming machine 1 will be schematically described. In the pachinko gaming machine 1, based on the fact that the game ball has passed through the passing gate 41 provided in the gaming area 10, the normal game with the normal symbol display 20 is started. After the start of the normal symbol change, if the specified time, which is the normal symbol change time, has elapsed, and the normal symbols other than the normal symbol are displayed in a stopped state, the normal symbol change display result is “out of normal”. Become. If the specific normal symbol (the symbol per ordinary symbol) is stopped and displayed, the variation display result of the ordinary symbol becomes “per ordinary symbol”, and the release control in which the movable plate of the ordinary variable winning ball apparatus 6B is retracted from the game area 10 is performed. The normal opening control is performed to return to the closed position protruding into the game area 10 when a predetermined time has elapsed.

  Based on the fact that the first start condition is satisfied after the first special condition game or the big hit game state has ended, for example, after the first start condition is satisfied because the game ball has won the first start winning opening, etc. Then, a special game is started by the first special symbol display 4A. In addition, after the second start condition is established because the game ball has won the second start winning opening, etc., the second start condition is established, for example, due to the end of the previous special game or the big hit game state. Based on this, a special game is started by the second special symbol display 4B.

  In the special game, after starting the variable display of the special symbol, the fixed special symbol (special graphic display result) is derived and displayed when the variable display time elapses. At this time, if a specific special symbol (big hit symbol) is displayed in a stopped state, the result is “big hit” as the specific display result, and if a special symbol different from the big hit symbol is displayed in a stopped state, it becomes “out of place”. After the fluctuation display result in the special figure game becomes “big hit”, the game is controlled to the big hit gaming state as a specific gaming state in which a round advantageous to the player (also referred to as “round game”) is executed a predetermined number of times.

  In the big hit gaming state, a special winning prize ball device 7 has a special prize opening door for a period until a predetermined upper limit time (for example, 29 seconds or 0.1 second) elapses or a predetermined number (for example, 9) of winning balls. In the period until the occurrence of, the grand prize opening is opened. Thereby, the round which makes the special variable winning ball apparatus 7 the 1st state (open state) advantageous for a player is performed.

  A special prize-winning ball device that receives a game ball falling on the surface of the game board 2 and then closes the big prize-winning slot, with the grand prize-winning door that has opened the grand prize-winning port during the round. 7 is changed to the second state (closed state) disadvantageous to the player, and one round is completed. The round that is the opening cycle of the big prize opening can be repeatedly executed until the number of executions reaches a predetermined upper limit number (for example, “16”, etc.).

  In the effect symbol display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R of the effect display device 5, in response to the start of the special symbol game, the effect symbol variable display is started. In the period from the start of the variation display of the effect symbol to the end of the variation display, the variation display state of the effect symbol may be a predetermined reach state. The reach state is a display in which variation continues for effect symbols that are not yet stopped when the effect symbols that are stopped and displayed in the display area of the effect display device 5 constitute a part of the jackpot combination. A state or a display state in which all or a part of the effect symbols change synchronously while constituting all or part of the jackpot combination.

  As a confirmed special symbol in the special figure game, among the multiple types of big hit combinations, the fixed effect symbol that is a predetermined normal big hit combination (also referred to as “non-probable variable big hit combination”) is stopped and displayed, and the variation display result is “non-probable big hit bonus”. ”Is controlled to the big hit state, and after the end, time reduction control (time reduction control) is performed. By performing the time reduction control, the special symbol change display time (special figure change time) in the special figure game is shortened compared to the normal state. In the short-time control, so-called electric Chu support is performed in which the winning frequency of the normal symbol is increased and the winning frequency to the normal variable winning ball apparatus 6B is increased. In the time-saving control, one of the conditions is established first, that is, a special game is executed a predetermined number of times (for example, 100 times) after the big hit gaming state ends, and the fluctuation display result is “big hit”. Sometimes it just needs to end.

  As a confirmed special symbol in the special figure game, among the multiple types of big hit combinations, the finalized design symbol that becomes a predetermined probability variable big hit combination (also referred to as “probable big hit combination”) is stopped and the fluctuation display result is “probable big hit” When it becomes, it is controlled to the big hit state, and after the end, probability variation control (probability variation control) is performed together with time reduction control. By performing the probability variation control, the probability that the variation display result is “big hit” in each special figure game is improved so as to be higher than that in the normal state. When the condition that the variable display result is “big hit” and the game is controlled again to the big hit gaming state after the end of the big hit gaming state is established, the probability variation control is performed a predetermined number of times after the big hit gaming state ends (for example, the same as the number of time reductions 100) When the special figure game is executed, the probability variation control lottery executed every time the special figure game is started after the jackpot game state is finished is determined to have “probable fall”. When it ends, etc.

  When the short-time control is performed, the normal symbol variation time (normal diagram variation time) in the regular game is shorter than that in the normal state, and the regular symbol variation display result is “normal diagram” in each regular game. The control for improving the probability of “winning” than in the normal state, and the movement control time for performing the movement control of the movable plate in the normally variable winning ball apparatus 6B based on the fact that the fluctuation display result is “normal hitting” is normal. The second start condition may be satisfied by making it easier for the game ball to pass (enter) the second start winning opening, such as a control to make the state longer than in the state and a control to increase the number of movements compared to the normal state. The control (electricity chew support control, high opening control) which is advantageous for the player by increasing the value is performed. As a result, the second start condition for executing the special figure game using the second special figure is likely to be established, and the special figure game can be executed frequently. Time to become is shortened.

  Next, the operation (action) of the pachinko gaming machine 1 in this embodiment will be described. In the main board 11, when power supply from a predetermined power supply board is started, the game control microcomputer 100 is activated, and the CPU 103 executes a predetermined process as a game control main process. When game control timer interrupt processing is started in the game control main processing, switch processing, main-side error processing, information output processing, game random number update processing, special symbol process processing, normal symbol process processing, and command control processing are executed.

  In the special symbol process, the value of the special symbol process flag provided in the game control flag setting unit (not shown) is updated according to the progress of the game in the pachinko gaming machine 1, and the first special symbol display 4A or (2) Various processes are selected and executed in order to perform control of the display operation in the special symbol display 4B and setting of the opening / closing operation of the special winning opening in the special variable winning ball apparatus 7 in a predetermined procedure.

  In the special symbol process, the CPU 103 first determines whether or not there is a first start winning or a second starting winning. If there is a winning, the special symbol display result determination, jackpot type determination, variation pattern A random number value for determination or the like is extracted, and a start winning process is executed for storing (storing) at the highest level of empty entries in the first special figure reservation storage unit or the second special figure reservation storage unit.

  Further, the CPU 103 determines whether or not to start the special game based on the presence / absence of the hold data stored in the first special figure hold storage unit or the second special figure hold storage unit, and the special figure display result. A special decision that determines (predetermines) whether or not the variation display result of a special symbol or production symbol is to be a “hit” based on numerical data indicating a random number for judgment before the variation display result is derived and displayed. The symbol normal process is executed. That is, when starting the variation display of the special figure game, the CPU 103 determines whether or not to derive and display the jackpot display result as the display result of the variation display based on the random number value stored when the start winning occurs. Processing to determine (lottery) is executed.

  Next, a variation pattern setting process for determining a variation pattern as one of a plurality of types, a special symbol variation process for performing a setting for varying a special symbol and a process for measuring an elapsed time after the special symbol starts variation, A special symbol stop process is performed to perform settings for stopping the change of the special symbol and stopping and displaying (deriving) the fixed special symbol. In addition, when the variation display result is “big hit”, the big hit release pre-processing, the big hit open process, the big hit release post-processing, and the big hit end process are performed to open and close the big winning opening in the big hit gaming state.

  Next, the operation of the effect control board 12 will be described. First, the effect control CPU 120 starts executing the main process when the power is turned on. When a timer interruption occurs in the main process, a command analysis process, an effect control process, and an effect random number update process are executed.

  In the effect control process, the hold display update process for updating the hold storage display in the first hold storage display area 5D and the second hold storage display area 5U of the display display device 5 to a display corresponding to the storage contents of the hold storage buffer. Execute. Next, in accordance with the value of the production control process flag, a variation pattern designation command reception waiting process for confirming whether or not a variation pattern designation command has been received from the game control microcomputer 100, and variation of the production symbol are started. While controlling the switching timing of each variation state (variation speed) constituting the variation pattern and monitoring the end of the variation time according to the process data set in the effect symbol variation start process to be controlled and the process symbol variation start process The display control of the effect display device 5, the sound output from the speakers 8L and 8R, the light emission of the effect LED 9 and the drive control of the movable bodies 300L and 300R, etc. An effect symbol variation stop process is performed for performing control for deriving and displaying (stop symbol).

  In the big hit display process, after the end of the variation time, the effect display device 5 is controlled to display a screen for notifying the occurrence of the big hit. In the big hit game processing, control during the big hit game is performed. In the big hit end effect process, the effect display device 5 performs display control for notifying the player that the big hit gaming state has ended.

  In this way, the effect control CPU 120 can execute various effects related to the game such as the effect display variable display control and the notice effect based on the effect control command (control information) transmitted from the game control microcomputer 100. Has been.

  The notice control effect executed by the effect control CPU 120 during the display of the effect symbols is, for example, a jackpot notice effect that suggests the possibility of a big hit, a reach notice that indicates whether or not to reach, and a stop symbol that indicates whether or not to reach. Multiple notices that are executed at the start of change display or when reach is established, such as a stop symbol notice to notify, a latent notice to notify whether or not the game state is a probability fluctuation state (whether it is latent or not) Including.

  In this embodiment, the effects by the movable bodies 300L and 300R described below, the combined effects by the movable bodies 300L and 300R, the speakers 8L and 8R, the effect LED 9 and the like, and the player uses the stick controller 31A or the push button 31B. Various effects such as operation effects that are executed on the condition that they are operated can be executed as various notices.

FIG. 9A is a perspective view illustrating a state in which the vicinity of the binding band is viewed from an oblique front, and FIG. 9B is a perspective view illustrating a state in which the vicinity of the binding band is viewed from an oblique rear.

  As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the movable body unit includes operable movable bodies 300L and 300R, a base member 301 to which the movable bodies 300L and 300R are attached, and a movable body 300L to be attached to the base member 301. It is mainly composed of drive mechanisms 302L and 302R for driving 300R. Further, a decorative member 320 (for example, a logo panel or the like) that can be visually recognized by the player is disposed on the front side of the movable body unit.

  The base member 301 is fixedly installed in the upper part between the effect display device 5 and the game board 2 and is decorated on both the left and right sides in a state where the movable bodies 300L and 300R are in the standby position, as will be described later. Contact portions 301a and 301b that contact the members 304L and 304R are provided.

  The movable bodies 300L and 300R are rotatably attached to the arms 303L and 303R, one end of which is rotatably attached to the shaft protruding forward from the base member 301, and the other ends of the arms 303L and 303R. The decorative members 304L and 304R are mainly configured. The arms 303L and 303R are respectively formed with long holes 303a and 303b extending along the longitudinal direction. In addition, torsion springs 306L and 306R are disposed between the arms 303L and 303R and the decorative members 304L and 304R. The decorative members 304L and 304R are LED boards 305L and 305R each having a plurality of movable body LEDs 305a. have.

  The drive mechanism 302L includes an effect motor 307L disposed on the front surface side of the base member 301, a first gear 308 attached to the drive shaft of the effect motor 307L disposed on the rear surface side of the base member 301, and a first gear 308. It mainly includes a second gear 309 that meshes with one gear 308 and a third gear 310 that meshes with the second gear 309. The third gear 310 includes a gear portion 310 a disposed on the back side of the base member 301, and a rotating portion 310 b having a larger diameter than the gear portion 310 a and disposed on the front side of the base member 301. ing. A projecting shaft 310c projecting forward is formed on the front surface side of the rotating portion 310b, and the projecting shaft 310c is inserted into the elongated hole 303a of the arm 303L. Therefore, by driving the production motor 307L, the first gear 308 to the third gear 310 are driven to operate the arm 303L. Since the protruding shaft 310c of the third gear 310 is inserted into the long hole 303a of the arm 303L, the third gear 310 (rotating part 310b) and the arm 303L are disposed close to each other.

  The drive mechanism 302R is mainly composed of an effect motor 307R disposed on the back side of the base member 301, and a rotating member 311 disposed on the front side of the base member 301 and attached to the drive shaft of the effect motor 307R. It is configured. A projecting shaft 311a projecting forward is formed on the front surface side of the rotating member 311. The projecting shaft 311a is inserted into the long hole 303b of the arm 303R. Therefore, by driving the production motor 307R, the rotating member 311 is driven and the arm 303R operates. Since the protruding shaft 311a of the rotating member 311 is inserted into the long hole 303b of the arm 303R, the rotating member 311 and the arm 303R are disposed close to each other.

  In particular, as shown in FIG. 4, the movable bodies 300 </ b> L and 300 </ b> R are in a standby position (see FIG. It is possible to move between the production positions overlapping on the side (see FIG. 4B). The base member 301 is provided with a standby position sensor (not shown) connected to the effect control board 12 and can detect that the movable bodies 300L and 300R are at the standby position (origin position). It is like that.

  Specifically, in the standby position, the projecting shaft 310c and the projecting shaft 311a are arranged near the top in the rotation range (the projecting shaft 310c is on the left side of the top, and the projecting shaft 311a is on the right side of the top). The arms 303L and 303R are lifted upward so that the decorative members 304L and 304R are separated from each other. At this time, predetermined portions of the decorative members 304L and 304R are in contact with the contact portions 301a and 301b of the base member 301, and the connecting portions between the arms 303L and 303R and the decorative members 304L and 304R are contact portions 301a and 301b. The torsion springs 306L and 306R are compressed and folded with respect to the arms 303L and 303R (see the enlarged portion in FIG. 4A).

  In the production position, the third gear 310 is rotated counterclockwise from the standby position, the protruding shaft 310c is disposed on the right side in the rotation range, and the rotation member 311 is rotated clockwise from the standby position. The moving projecting shaft 311a is arranged on the left side in the rotation range, so that the arms 303L and 303R are arranged so that the decorative members 304L and 304R are brought close to each other. At the effect position, the decorative members 304L and 304R are unfolded with respect to the arms 303L and 303R, and are combined so as to be connected in the left-right direction to form one effect part. When moving from the standby position to the effect position, the decorative members 304L and 304R are separated from the contact portions 301a and 301b, so that the torsion springs 306L and 306R are elastically restored and the arms 303L and 303R and the decorative members 304L and 304R are restored. Are expanded (see the enlarged portion in FIG. 4B).

  Next, the configuration of the arm 303L will be described. Since the configuration of the arm 303R is substantially the same as that of the arm 303L, the configuration of the arm 303L will be described and the description of the configuration of the arm 303R will be omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the arm 303 </ b> L includes a first component member 321 disposed on the front side (player side), and a second component member 322 attached to the back side of the first component member 321. The first component member 321 has a concave portion 321a formed on the back side along the left side wall portion at the effect position, and the second component member 322 is attached with a screw N1 so as to close the concave portion 321a. .

  Specifically, the first component member 321 is configured by a non-transparent member having a substantially concave shape in cross section, and has a hole portion 321b penetrating in the vicinity in the vicinity of the rotating end portion side (one end side). The hole 321b communicates with the recess 321a. Further, a part of the left side wall portion of the first component member 321 at the production position is provided with a notch portion 321c that is notched in the front-rear direction, and the right side of the notch portion 321c penetrates in the front-rear direction. A hole 321d is formed. That is, a bar-shaped winding portion 321e around which the binding band 330 can be wound is formed on a part of the left side wall portion of the first component member 321.

  Further, the recess 321a is open on the other end side of the first component member 321 and is configured in a duct shape in a state where the second component member 322 is attached to the first component member 321. That is, the duct extending in the longitudinal direction of the arm 303L by the recess 321a and the second component member 322 communicates with the outside through the hole 321b on one end side of the first component member 321 and is opened on the other end side. It communicates with the outside through the part.

  In addition, in the present Example, although the form in which the long hole 303a of the arm 303L was formed in the 1st structural member 321 was illustrated, this invention is not limited to this, For example, the 2nd structural member 322 is formed. A long hole 303a may be formed in the bottom.

  The second component member 322 is composed of a translucent member. When the second component member 322 is attached to the first component member 321, the rotation preventing portion 322 a composed of a protruding piece protruding forward from a portion closing the recess 321 a is provided. The rotation preventing portion 322a is disposed on the side of the notch portion 321c with a predetermined spacing. The rotation preventing portion 322a prevents the binding band 330 from rotating as will be described later.

  In addition, between the base member 301 and the decoration member 304L, the back of the game board 2, that is, the effect control board 12 provided on the base member 301 side, and the LED board 305L provided on the decoration member 304L are connected. A plurality of wirings LN are arranged. The wiring LN can be deformed according to the operation of the decorative member 304L, that is, has flexibility.

  In this way, each wiring LN is a wiring that connects the effect control board 12 on the base member 301 side and the LED board 305L of the decorative member 304L that is rotatably provided to the base member 301. By simply connecting the other end side of the LN to the connector 305b of the LED board 305L, the wiring LN is exposed depending on the operation of the movable body 300L and exposed to the player side, or between the arm 303L and the third gear 310. In the present embodiment, the wiring LN is wired along the arm 303L, and a predetermined portion of the wiring LN is held at a predetermined portion of the arm 303L.

  Next, a procedure for assembling the arm 303L will be described. Since the assembly procedure of the arm 303R is substantially the same as the assembly procedure of the arm 303L, the assembly procedure of the arm 303L will be described and the description of the assembly procedure of the arm 303R will be omitted.

  When assembling the arm 303L, first, as shown in FIG. 6A, one end side of the wiring LN is inserted from the front side of the first component member 321 through the hole 321b, and the wiring LN is inserted into the recess 321a. The other end side of the wiring LN is connected to the connector 305b of the LED board 305L provided on the back surface of the decorative member 304L. A duct portion 304a for the wiring LN is formed on the back surface of the decorative member 304L. Since the wiring LN passes through the duct portion 304a and is connected to the connector 305b, the wiring LN is connected to the back surface side of the decorative member 304L. For example, fluttering in the front-rear direction can be suppressed.

  In addition, the plurality of wirings LN arranged along the recesses 321 a are held by the binding band 330 in the winding portion 321 e of the first component member 321. Specifically, the binding band 330 is attached to one end (specific portion) of the linear portion 331 and the other end of the linear portion 331 is inserted by a flexible linear portion 331 formed of a synthetic resin. An engaging portion 332 having a possible hole portion 332a, and the tip end (the other end) of the linear portion 331 is inserted into the through-hole portion 321d from the back side, and the engaging portion 332 side is connected to the notch portion 321c. It arrange | positions to the front side through a side (refer the enlarged part of FIG. 5 (A)). In other words, the linear portion 331 is annularly wound so as to surround the winding portion 321e of the first component member 321 and the wiring LN together. Then, the other end of the linear portion 331 is inserted into the hole 332a of the locking portion 332, and an arbitrary locked portion 331a (a portion different from the specific portion) provided on the other end side of the linear portion 331 is inserted. By locking the locking claw portion 332b formed in the hole portion 332a, a predetermined portion of the plurality of wires LN is held in the winding portion 321e of the first component member 321 (see FIGS. 9 and 10). ).

  Further, the winding portion 321e is arranged close to the left side wall portion side of the first component member 321, and the notch portion 321c is formed on the left side of the winding portion 321e. The part 331 can be wound around the winding part 321e by inserting it into the hole part 321b. Therefore, for example, compared with the case where holes are provided on both sides of the winding part 321e, the work of inserting the linear part 331 into the hole can be reduced, so that the winding work of the linear part 331 around the winding part 321e is performed. Can be easily performed.

  The plurality of wirings LN arranged along the recesses 321a are disconnected by being tightly bundled, or the arm 303L is rotated with respect to the base member 301 or the decorative member 304L is rotated with respect to the arm 303L. When the wiring LN is pulled accordingly, the wiring LN is firmly held by the winding portion 321e so that the wiring LN cannot be moved in the longitudinal direction (wiring direction) and is not disconnected. It is held in a state of being loosely bundled around the winding portion 321e by the binding band 330 (for example, a state in which the wiring LN can move in the longitudinal direction (wiring direction)).

  As described above, since the plurality of wirings LN are bundled by the binding band 330 and held in the first component member 321 (winding portion 321e), the wiring LN is held in the first component member 321 by the binding band 330. In this state, the locking portion 332 protrudes to the front side of the first component member 321. Note that the binding band 330 is configured in the same color as the arm 303L, so that the binding band 330 is less noticeable to the player.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 6B, the excess portion of the binding band 330 is cut, and the recess 321 a is closed with the locking portion 332 of the binding band 330 disposed on the front surface of the first component member 321. The second constituent member 322 is attached to the screw N1. As shown in FIG. 6C, in a state where the second constituent member 322 is attached to the first constituent member 321, the wiring LN does not jump out from the recess 321a. Moreover, since the rotation prevention part 322a can be provided in the side of the notch part 321c by closing the recessed part 321a with the 2nd structural member 322 after hold | maintaining the wiring LN to the 1st structural member 321, the wiring LN is retained. Work becomes easier.

  It should be noted that the second component member 322 cannot be connected to the first component member 321 in a state where the locking portion 332 of the binding band 330 is disposed at a position other than the front surface of the first component member 321. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6D, when the locking portion 332 of the binding band 330 is disposed on the back surface of the first component member 321, the lock portion 332 is the second component member. The second constituent member 322 cannot be connected to the first constituent member 321 due to interference with the second constituent member 322. This is because the arm 303L and the third gear 310 are close to each other, so that the front-rear width of the duct formed by the recess 321a and the second component member 322 cannot be formed large. In other words, by arranging the engaging portion 332 of the binding band 330 on the front surface of the first component member 321, the front-rear width of the duct is configured to be compact.

  As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the movable body 300L is in the standby position (the arm 303L and the decorative member 304L are folded) and in the effect position (the arm 303L and the decorative member 304L are in contact with each other). The state changes in the expanded state). In addition, above the rotation fulcrum of the arm 303L, the wiring LN is fixed to the fixing portion 301c of the base member 301 by a wiring presser or a binding band.

  As shown in FIG. 7, when the movable body 300L is in the standby position, the wiring LN is inserted into the recess 321a from the front side through the hole 321b, and extends to the left when viewed from the front along the recess 321a. The arm 303L is folded to the right along the annular shaft portion 303c provided at the other end, extends along the left wall 304b of the duct portion 304a of the decorative member 304L, and is connected to the connector 305b.

  As shown in FIG. 8, when the movable body 300L is in the production position, the wiring LN is inserted into the concave portion 321a from the front side through the hole portion 321b, and obliquely lower right when viewed from the front along the concave portion 321a. It extends along the left side wall portion 304b of the duct portion 304a of the decorative member 304L, and is connected to the connector 305b.

  The length of the wiring LN from the fixing portion 301c of the base member 301 to the connector 305b is set to a predetermined length. In addition, the wiring LN meanders when the movable body 300L is in the standby position, rather than when the movable body 300L is in the presentation position, and therefore when the movable body 300L is in the standby position and when it is in the presentation position. In addition, the distance from the fixing portion 301c on the base member 301 side to the connector 305b becomes longer. Therefore, the length of the wiring LN from the fixed portion 301c of the base member 301 to the connector 305b is secured by a length required when the movable body 300L is at the standby position. That is, the length of the wiring LN becomes longer as the movable body 300L approaches the effect position, but the wiring LN is held by the arm 303L (winding portion 321e) by the binding band 330, and thus the operation of the movable body 300L. Therefore, bending or twisting in an unintended direction is prevented.

  As shown in FIG. 9, since the plurality of wirings LN arranged along the recesses 321a are held loosely bundled by the binding band 330 as described above, the movement and vibration of the wiring LN. For example, the winding portion 321e may be rotated in the circumferential direction, and the locking portion 332 may be rotated so as to circulate around the winding portion 321e and the bundled wiring LN. In addition, since the arrangement | positioning aspect of the wiring LN in the movable body 300R is substantially the same as the movable body 300L, the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  Next, the form which the binding band 330 rotated is demonstrated based on FIGS. 10A is an explanatory diagram showing the movable range of the locking portion at the standby position in the movable body without the rotation prevention portion, and FIG. 10B is the relationship at the effect position in the movable body without the rotation prevention portion. It is explanatory drawing which shows the movable range of a stop part. 11A is an explanatory view showing a pattern 1 in which the locking portion and the third gear come into contact with each other in the movable body without the rotation blocking portion, and FIG. 11B is the locking with the movable body without the rotation blocking portion. It is explanatory drawing which shows the pattern 2 which a part and a 3rd gear contact. 12A is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA in FIG. 8, and FIGS. 12B and 12C are explanatory views illustrating a state in which the locking portion is rotated in the present embodiment. Here, only the movable body 300L (movable body 300L ') side will be described, and description of the movable body 300R side will be omitted.

  As described above, since the third gear 310 (the rotation part 310b) and the arm 303L are disposed close to each other, as shown in FIG. 10A, the movable body 300L without the rotation prevention part 322a. 'When the (conventional movable body) is in the standby position, when the binding band 330 rotates in the circumferential direction around the winding portion 321e extending in the longitudinal direction of the arm 303L, the locking portion 332 is attached to the base member 301. It comes to contact.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 10B, when the movable body 300L ′ (conventional movable body) without the rotation blocking portion 322a is in the effect position, the locking portion 332 is connected to the third gear 310 (the rotation portion 310b). ). That is, the base member 301 and the third gear 310 are superposed within the rotation range of the locking portion 332 around the winding portion 321e.

  Therefore, for example, as shown in FIG. 11A, when the movable body 300L ′ starts to move from the standby position toward the effect position, the binding band 330 rotates (for example, due to movement or vibration of wiring). When the locking portion 332 is disposed on the back side of the arm 303L (first component member 321), the locking portion 332 contacts the side surface of the third gear 310, and the binding band 330 is moved to the arm 303L. There is a possibility that the operation of the arm 303L and the third gear 310 may be hindered by being twisted or pressed against the third gear 310.

  Further, for example, as shown in FIG. 11B, the binding band 330 rotates (for example, by the moving operation of the movable body 300L ′) while the movable body 300L ′ moves from the standby position toward the effect position. When the locking portion 332 is disposed on the back side of the arm 303L, the locking portion 332 enters the recess 310d in the third gear 310 and contacts the wall portion constituting the recess 310d, and the binding band. When 330 is twisted or pressed between the arm 303L and the third gear 310, the operation of the arm 303L and the third gear 310 is hindered, so that the movable body 300L is not moved to the effect position. There was a risk of reducing the effect.

  On the other hand, in the movable body 300L of this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 12A, by attaching the second component member 322 to the first component member 321, the rotation preventing portion 322a is located on the side of the notch portion 321c. Accordingly, the binding band 330 is prevented from rotating, and the locking portion 332 is prevented from contacting the third gear 310.

  Specifically, the front-rear dimension L1 of the locking part 332 in the binding band 330 is the separation dimension L2 between the winding part 321e and the rotation prevention part 322a, or the width dimension L3 of the through-hole part 321d (FIG. 12A). (L1> L2, L3). Therefore, as shown in FIG. 12B, when the binding band 330 is rotated so that the locking portion 332 moves toward the through-hole portion 321d, the locking portion 332 is positioned on the periphery of the through-hole portion 321d. The contact is prevented from rotating to the back side. Further, as shown in FIG. 12C, when the binding band 330 is rotated so that the locking portion 332 moves toward the rotation blocking portion 322a, the locking portion 332 of the rotation blocking portion 322a is moved. Abutting on the front end is prevented from rotating to the back side. As described above, the presence of the rotation blocking portion 322a prevents the binding band 330 from rotating and the locking portion 332 from coming into contact with the third gear 310. Therefore, the operation of the arm 303L and the third gear 310 is prevented. Can be prevented.

  Next, Modification 1 to Modification 3 of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 13 is an explanatory view showing Modification 1 of the present invention. FIG. 14 is an explanatory view showing a second modification of the present invention. FIG. 15 is an explanatory diagram showing a third modification of the present invention.

  In the above-described embodiment, an example in which the rotation preventing portion 322a is provided on the second component member 322 is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the rotation of the locking portion 332 can be locked. What is necessary is just to be a thing, for example, it may be provided in the 1st component member and may be constituted by a member different from the 1st component member and the 2nd component member.

  Specifically, as an example of a form in which the rotation preventing means is provided on the first component member, as shown in FIG. 13A, the side wall portion 342 is formed on the front side corner of the side portion of the first component member 341. A notch 341c may be formed so that a part of the side wall part 341c remains, and a part of the remaining side wall part 342 may be used as the rotation prevention means. According to this, as shown in FIG. 13B, even if the binding band 330 is rotated in a state where the wiring LN is held with respect to the winding portion 321e by the binding band 330, the remaining side wall portion 342 The part prevents the locking part 332 from rotating to the back side.

  Further, as an example of the configuration in which the rotation preventing means is composed of a member different from the first component member and the second component member, as shown in FIG. 14, it can be engaged with and disengaged from the locking portion 332 of the binding band 330. The cap member 350 may be used as a rotation prevention unit. Specifically, the cap member 350 includes a fitting portion 351 that fits into the locking portion 332, and a flange portion 352 that protrudes outward from the opening edge of the fitting portion 351. A notch portion 353 is formed at a position corresponding to the linear portion 331 of the binding band 330 in the flange portion 352, so that the cap member 350 is attached to the locking portion 332 without interfering with the linear portion 331. Can be installed. Further, a claw portion 351 a that is locked to a recess 332 c provided in the locking portion 332 is formed in the fitting portion 351, and the cap member 350 is difficult to come off from the locking portion 332. By attaching the cap member 350 to the locking portion 332, even if the binding band 330 rotates, the flange portion 352 interferes with the first component member 321 and the rotation of the locking portion 332 to the back side is prevented.

  In the second modification, the cap member 350 that can be engaged and disengaged with respect to the locking portion 332 is used as the rotation preventing means. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, the first member (for example, Further, the first component members 321 and 341) may be members attached at positions where the rotation of the locking portion 332 of the binding band 330 can be prevented.

  Moreover, in the said Example, the form of the binding band 330 provided with the linear part 331 and the latching | locking part 332, and being cyclically connected by inserting the other end of the linear part 331 in the latching | locking part 332 was illustrated. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and various modifications can be made as long as the first component member 321 and the wiring LN can be held in an annular shape.

  As an example, for example, as shown in FIG. 15A, a binding band 430 of this modification includes a flexible linear portion 431 formed of a synthetic resin, and one end (specific portion) of the linear portion 431. ), And a through hole 433 is provided along the longitudinal direction of the linear portion 431 at the other end of the linear portion 431 (a portion different from the specific portion). A plurality (three in this modification) are formed. As shown in FIG. 15B, the linear portion 431 is annularly wound so as to surround the winding portion 321e of the first component member 321 and the wiring LN together, and the locking portion 432 is attached to any through hole 433. The wiring LN is held in the winding portion 321e of the first component member 321 by inserting and locking.

  As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 as the embodiment of the present invention, the first member (for example, the arms 303L and 303R) and the second member (for example, the third gear) different from the first member. 310 / base member 301), wiring LN connected to electronic components (for example, LED boards 305L and 305R), and flexible linear portion 331 together with winding portion 321e of arms 303L and 303R to wiring LN. By winding and locking a portion (for example, a locked portion 331a) different from the specific portion to a locking portion 332 provided at a specific portion (for example, one end) of the linear portion 331, the wiring LN is connected to the arm 303L. , 303R, and holding members (for example, binding band 330 / binding band 430), and at least the arms 303L, 303R and the second member In the state where the wiring LN is held by the arms 303L and 303R by the binding band 330, the locking portion 332 protrudes from the arms 303L and 303R, and the wiring LN is held by the binding bands 330 on the arms 303L and 303R. In this state, the locking portion 332 is rotated to a position where it can come into contact with the second member (for example, as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the locking portion 332 of the binding band 330 faces the back side). Rotation prevention means (for example, rotation prevention part 322a / part of side wall part 342 / cap member 350) for prevention is provided.

  By doing so, the rotation preventing portion 322a can prevent the locking portion 332 from rotating to a position where the locking portion 332 can come into contact with the third gear 310 or the base member 301. It is possible to avoid the movement of the arms 303L, 303R and the third gear 310 from coming into contact with 310 or the base member 301.

  Specifically, in order to make the movable body unit compact, the members such as the base member 301, the movable bodies 300L and 300R, and the drive mechanisms 302L and 302R are arranged close to each other, but the wiring LN is disconnected. In order to prevent this, if the winding portion 321e of the first component 321 and the wiring LN are loosely bundled using the binding band 330, the wiring LN moves according to the operation of the movable bodies 300L and 300R, or the movable bodies 300L and 300R. May cause the binding band 330 to rotate in the circumferential direction and the locking portion 332 to rotate so as to circulate around the winding portion 321e and the bundled wiring LN.

  Then, there is a possibility that the locking portion 332 of the binding band 330 may come into contact with the third gear 310 or the base member 301 due to the rotation (rotation) of the locking portion 332 as described above. In the pachinko gaming machine 1, since the rotation preventing portion 322a is arranged in the rotation direction of the locking portion 332 (the circumferential direction of the winding portion 321e), the locking portion 332 is more than the rotation blocking portion 322a. The rotation to the third gear 310 or the base member 301 side is prevented, and the binding band 330 is twisted or pressed between the arms 303L and 303R and the third gear 310 or the base member 301, whereby the arm 303L. , 303R and the operation of the third gear 310 can be avoided.

  Further, in a state where the plurality of wirings LN are held by the first band 321 by the binding band 330, the linear portion 331 is inserted into the through-hole portion 321d and stored in the notch portion 321c. The binding band 330 is prevented from moving in the longitudinal direction of the winding portion 321e. That is, it is possible to prevent the wiring LN from being bent or twisted when the holding position by the binding band 330 is changed in the longitudinal direction of the wiring LN. Moreover, since the linear part 331 is accommodated in the notch part 321c, the linear part 331 can be prevented from projecting to the side of the first component member 321.

  The binding band 330 is configured in the same color as the arms 303L and 303R. By doing so, the binding band 330 can be made inconspicuous. In the present embodiment, the binding band 330 is configured in the same color as the arms 303L and 303R. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and can be freely changed as long as the player does not stand out. May be. For example, the holding member may be configured with a color similar to the arms 303L and 303R, or may be configured with a translucent member.

  Moreover, the rotation prevention part 322a (or cap member 350) is comprised with the permeable member. By doing in this way, rotation prevention part 322a can be made inconspicuous. In the present embodiment, the form in which the rotation preventing portion 322a is configured by a permeable member has been illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and can be freely provided that it is not conspicuous from the player. It may be changed. For example, the rotation preventing means may be configured in the same color as or similar to the arms 303L and 303R.

  Further, the third gear 310 is operable, and it is possible to avoid the locking portion 332 of the binding band 330 from hindering the operation of the third gear 310. Further, the arms 303L and 303R are operable, and it is possible to avoid the locking portion 332 of the binding band 330 from hindering the operations of the arms 303L and 303R.

  Specifically, the arms 303 </ b> L and 303 </ b> R are operable by the rotation of the third gear 310. That is, the arms 303L and 303R and the third gear 310 are operable, and the locking portion 332 of the binding band 330 is moved to the third gear 310 or the base member 301 side by the rotation blocking portion 322a. The rotation of the binding band 330 is prevented and the arms 303L and 303R and the third gear 310 are operated by being twisted or pressed against the arms 303L and 303R and the third gear 310 or the base member 301. Inhibiting can be avoided.

  Further, the rotation preventing portion 322a is provided on the second component member 322 that can be attached to the first component member 321 of the arms 303L and 303R, and the second component member 322 has the locking portion 332 in contact with the third gear 310. It cannot be attached to the first component 321 in a state where it is possible. By doing so, the second component member 322 cannot be attached to the first component member 321 in a state where the latching portion 332 of the binding band 330 is in a position where it can come into contact with the third gear 310. 332 can be provided at an appropriate position. That is, the operation of attaching the second component member 322 to the first component member 321 and assembling the first component member 321 is a state where the locking portion 332 is not in an appropriate position (a state where the third gear 310 can be contacted). ) Can be prevented from proceeding.

  The arms 303L and 303R include a recess 321a that can accommodate the wiring LN and a second component member 322 that can close the recess 321a, and the rotation prevention unit 322a is provided in the second component member 322. ing. By doing in this way, it can avoid that the wiring LN contacts the 3rd gear 310. FIG. Further, after the wiring LN is held on the arms 303L and 303R by the binding band 330, the concave portion 321a is closed by the second component member 322, so that the rotation preventing portion 322a can be provided. That is, the operation of inserting the binding band 330 through the through-hole portion 321d and winding it around the winding portion 321e can be performed without the second component member 322, and thus the operation of holding the wiring LN by the binding band 330 is easy. Become.

  Further, since the rotation preventing portion 322a is disposed at a predetermined interval so as to cover the side of the notch portion 321c when the concave portion 321a of the first component member 321 is closed by the second component member 322, It is possible to improve the aesthetics by making it difficult for the player to see the linear portion 331 housed in the notch 321c. In addition, the rotation preventing portion 322a can suppress the wire portion 331 of the binding band 330 that loosely bundles the wires LN and holds the wire LN to the winding portion 321e from bending and bulging outward.

  In the above embodiment, the arm 303L and 303R as the first member and the third gear 310 as the second member can be operated. However, the embodiment is limited to this. Instead, for example, one of the first member and the second member is operable, and the positional relationship between the locking portion of the holding member attached to the first member and the second member changes relatively. If there is, the other of the first member and the second member may be provided inoperable. Further, the first member and the second member are not limited to those visible to the player, and may be disposed at positions where the player cannot visually recognize or difficult.

  Moreover, in the said Example, although the arm 303L and 303R which are movable bodies were illustrated as a 1st member, and the 3rd gear 310 which comprises the drive mechanism of a 1st member was illustrated as a 2nd member, a present Example shows this. However, the first member and the second member do not have to be driving members that drive one movable body as described above. That is, the first member and the second member may be members that are not related to each other. For example, the first member may be a movable body and the second member may be a structure provided close to the moving range of the movable body, or the first member may be moved within the first moving range. The second member may be a second movable body that can move within the second movement range, and the second movement range may be close to the first movement range. Furthermore, the arms 303L and 303R and the third gear 310 as the first members are members that are driven and controlled by the effect control means, but may be members that are driven and controlled by the game control means.

  Moreover, in the said Example, although the arm 303L, 303R illustrated the form arrange | positioned in the front side of the 3rd gear 310 and the base member 301, this invention is not limited to this, The 1st member and the 1st What is necessary is just to be arrange | positioned in the position where 2 members adjoined. For example, the first member may be arranged on the back side of the second member, and the first member and the second member may be arranged close to the left and right or up and down.

  Moreover, in the said Example, although LED board 305L, 305R was illustrated as an electrical component, this invention is not limited to this, For example, a drive motor and an audio | voice control board may be sufficient.

  In the above embodiment, the wiring LN is illustrated as being disposed along the longitudinal direction of the arms 303L and 303R. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the wiring LN is the first member. As long as it is held at the predetermined portion, for example, it may be arranged so as to intersect the longitudinal direction of the first member.

  Moreover, in the said Example, although the form which applied the wiring LN was illustrated as an example of the holding target object hold | maintained at a 1st member, this invention is not limited to this, A holding member makes a 1st member a 1st member. As long as it is held, for example, a wiring separate from the wiring LN, a structure such as a belt or string, a decorative member, a driving member, or the like may be used, and can be freely changed.

  Moreover, in the said Example, in the state which hold | maintained the wiring LN to the 1st structural member 321 with the binding band 330, the latching part 332 illustrated the form protruded to the front side rather than the 1st structural member 321. However, the present invention is not limited to this, as long as a part of the rotation range of the locking portion 332 protrudes toward the second member rather than the first member.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, in a state where the wiring LN is held by the first component member 321 by the binding band 330, the linear portion 331 is accommodated in the notch portion 321c provided on the side wall portion of the first component member 321. As a result, the linear part 331 is illustrated as a form in which the first constituent member 321 does not protrude laterally. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the notch part 321c may not be particularly provided.

  Moreover, in the said Example, although the binding band 330 was wound around the bar-shaped winding part 321e, this invention is not limited to this, The binding band 330 is made into the predetermined part of a 1st member. For example, the predetermined part of the first member protrudes from the wall surface of the first member as well as the predetermined part of the first member formed linearly along the front surface of the first member like the winding part 321e. Thus, it may be formed in a ring shape or the like, and the shape is not limited. Moreover, not only the rod-shaped site | part formed in a part of arm 301L like the winding part 321e, but a part of outer periphery of the arm 301L may be sufficient. Moreover, although the winding part 321e was formed in the vicinity of the side wall of the 1st structural member 321, it may be provided in the center part etc. of the 1st member, and the formation location is arbitrary.

  In the embodiment, the tip (the other end) of the linear portion 331 is inserted from the back side of the first component member 321 into the through-hole portion 321 d and is engaged with the locking portion 332 on the front side of the first component member 321. The form in which the binding band 330 is wound around the winding portion 321e by stopping is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the binding band can be wound as long as the wiring LN can be wound around the predetermined portion of the first member. The winding method of 330 may be freely changed.

  In the above embodiment, the wiring LN is illustrated as being disposed in the state where it is accommodated in the recesses 321a of the arms 301L and 301R. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the arms 301L and 301R It may be disposed along the outer wall.

  Moreover, in the said Example, although the rotation prevention part 322a illustrated the form formed in the 2nd structural member 322 of the arm 301L as a 1st member, this invention is not limited to this, rotation The blocking part may be formed on the first component member 321. Furthermore, the rotation prevention unit may be provided not on the first member on which the object to be held is held but on another member such as the cap member 350 of the second modification, the second member, or the like.

  Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described with reference to the drawings, the specific configuration is not limited to these embodiments, and modifications and additions within the scope of the present invention are included in the present invention. It is.
