The number of winning balls varies depending on the composition of the winning opening. In the prize ball number information 69 of the present embodiment, the first “3” is the number of prize balls of the first special symbol starting means 56, and the second “2” is the number of prize balls of the second special symbol starting means 57. The third “12” indicates the number of winning balls of the normal winning means 59, and the fourth “13” indicates the number of winning balls of the large winning means 58.

  The jackpot probability information 70 is information indicating the jackpot probability of the pachinko machine, and is displayed below the model name 68, for example. Since the pachinko machine of the present embodiment is configured to perform so-called probability fluctuation as will be described later, the jackpot probability information 70 is composed of low probability information 72, probability variation ratio 73, and limit information 74. Yes.

  The low probability information (first information) 72 indicates a low probability value that is a big hit. In the present embodiment, any of a plurality of settings (here, three types of settings 1 to 3) can be selected by operating a setting change operation unit 91 described later. Low probability values are different. Therefore, the low probability information 72 of the present embodiment includes first low probability value information 72a indicating a low probability value corresponding to setting 1 (here, 1 / 316.599) and a low probability value corresponding to setting 2 (here. 2nd low probability value information 72b indicating 1 / 300.599) and third low probability value information 72c indicating a low probability value corresponding to setting 3 (in this case 1 / 280.599), The first to third low probability value information 72a to 72c are displayed in a plurality of columns in association with each other in the vertical direction. Thus, since the low probability value that is a big hit is set to a different value for each of the three settings 1 to 3, the low probability information (first information) 72 is divided into the settings 1 to 3, and the corresponding values are respectively set. it's shown.

  The probability change rate (second information) 73 indicates a rate at which a probability change state occurs after the end of the jackpot state (a rate at which a specific gaming state is reached). Since the probability variation ratio 73 is a value common to the three settings 1 to 3, for example, on one side of the low probability information 72, for example, on the right side, the probability variation ratio 120/200 is not divided into the settings 1-3. One value is displayed.

  The limit information (second information) 74 indicates the maximum number of jackpots when the probability variation state (probability variation) continues, and is “None” when there is no limit. Since the limit information 74 is common to the three settings 1 to 3, for example, “no limit” is displayed below the low probability information 72 without being divided into the settings 1 to 3.

  The two-dimensional code 71 is, for example, a QR code (registered trademark) obtained by coding the management information of the pachinko machine, and is displayed on the left side of the jackpot probability information 70, for example.

  The central display frame unit 47 (FIG. 3) constitutes the display frame of the liquid crystal display means 60, and is detachable from the front side with respect to the mounting hole 45b (FIG. 4) penetrating in the front-rear direction formed in the base plate 45.

The game balls that have been launched by the launching means 17 and entered the upper side of the game area 23 are distributed to the left and right at the top of the decorative frame 47b, and the left-side down flow path 76a on the left side and the right-side down flow path 76b on the right side of the central display frame unit 47. Or any one of them.

  The central display frame unit 47 is provided with a warp inlet 75a through which game balls can flow in at least one of the left flow path 76a and the right flow path 76b, for example, the left flow path 76a. The game ball that has flowed into the warp inlet 75a freely rolls in the left-right direction on the stage 75, and then either the central drop part 77 provided corresponding to the center in the left-right direction of the game area 23 or any other part. It falls to the display information separately from the front side.

  The start winning unit 48 is disposed below the central display frame unit 47 and is detachably attached to the base plate 45 from the front side. The normal winning unit 49 is disposed below the central display frame unit 47 on the left side of the starting winning unit 48, and is detachably attached to the base plate 45 from the front side.

  The normal symbol starting means 55 is for starting the normal symbol variation display by the normal symbol display means 51, and is constituted by a passing gate or the like through which a game ball can pass, and a game ball detecting means for detecting a game ball passing therethrough. 55a. The normal symbol starting means 55 is provided, for example, on the front side of the front mounting plate 47a in the right part of the central display frame unit 47, and allows a game ball flowing down the right flow path 76b to pass therethrough.

  The normal symbol display means 51 is for variably displaying a normal symbol, and includes a plurality of light emitters (for example, LEDs) corresponding to a plurality of normal symbols (for example, two types of “O” and “X”), For example, it is arranged in the decorative frame 47 b of the central display frame unit 47. The normal symbol display means 51 blinks so that a plurality of light emitters emit light in a predetermined order based on the detection of the game ball by the normal symbol starter 55, and is acquired when the normal symbol starter 55 detects the game ball. When the hit determination random number value included in the normal random number information matches the predetermined hit determination value, for example, the “◯” side light emitter corresponding to the hit mode (predetermined mode) is turned on, and the other In this case, for example, the “X” side light emitter corresponding to the off mode is turned on and stopped. When the stop symbol after the fluctuation of the normal symbol display means 51 is in a hit state, a normal profit state occurs.

  Further, when the normal symbol starting means 55 detects a game ball during the normal holding period including during the symbol change of the normal symbol display means 51 and during the normal profit state, the normal random number information acquired thereby is determined in advance. The stored upper limit number, for example, 4 is stored as a limit, and each time the normal holding period ends, one is digested to change the normal symbol. The number of stored ordinary random number information (ordinary holding number) is notified to the player by the normal holding number display means 52 and the like. The normal number-of-holds display means 52 is disposed, for example, on the decoration frame 47 b of the central display frame unit 47.

  The first special symbol starting means 56 is for starting symbol variation by the first special symbol display means 53, and is constituted by a non-opening / closing type winning means having no opening / closing means, and a game ball for detecting a winning game ball The detection means 56a is provided. The first special symbol starting means 56 is provided, for example, in the start winning unit 48, and is arranged in an upward opening shape corresponding to the central dropping portion 77 of the stage 75, and a warp on the left flow path 76a side. Due to the existence of a route for winning through the stage 75 from the entrance 75a, the game ball flowing down the left flow path 76a can win with a higher probability than the game ball flowing down the right flow path 76b. Yes. When a game ball wins the first special symbol starting means 56, a predetermined number (three in this case) of game balls are paid out as a prize ball.

  The second special symbol starting means 57 is for starting the symbol variation by the second special symbol display means 54, and an open state in which the game ball can be won by the operation of the opening / closing portion 78 and a prize cannot be won (or from the open state). Is also comprised of open / close-type winning means that can be changed to a closed state that is difficult to win, and is provided with a game ball detecting means 57a that detects a winning game ball, and the normal symbol display means 51 is subjected to a stop symbol after fluctuation. When the normal profit state occurs in the form, the opening / closing part 78 changes from the closed state to the open state for a predetermined time.

  The second special symbol starting means 57 is disposed, for example, on the front mounting plate 47a in the right part of the central display frame unit 47 and on the downstream side of the normal symbol starting means 55, and has flowed down the right flow path 76b. A ball can be awarded. Note that the opening / closing part 78 can swing around a rotation axis in the left-right direction provided on the lower side, for example, and in the closed state it is substantially flush with, for example, the front mounting plate 47a, allowing game balls to pass through the front side, In the open state, the front side of the front mounting plate 47a has a downwardly inclined shape so as to win the game ball backward. When a game ball wins the second special symbol starting means 57, a predetermined number (two in this case) of game balls is paid out as a winning ball.

  The first special symbol display means 53 is composed of one or a plurality of display means, for example, a seven-segment type display means capable of variably displaying one first special symbol, and the first special symbol start means 56 is a game. The jackpot determination random number value included in the first special random number information obtained when the first special symbol starting means 56 detects the game ball by displaying the first special symbol fluctuating for a predetermined time on condition that a ball is detected is determined in advance. When it coincides with the determined jackpot determination value, it stops in the first jackpot mode, and in other cases it stops in the first off mode. When the stop symbol after the change of the first special symbol display means 53 becomes the first big hit mode, the first big hit state occurs.

  The second special symbol display means 54 is composed of one or a plurality of, for example, one segment special display means capable of variably displaying the second special symbol, and the second special symbol start means 57 is a game. A jackpot determination random number value included in the second special random number information acquired when the second special symbol starting means 57 detects the game ball by displaying the second special symbol fluctuating for a predetermined time on condition that a ball is detected is determined in advance. When it coincides with the determined jackpot value, it stops in the second jackpot mode, and in other cases it stops in the second offset mode. When the stop symbol after the change of the second special symbol display means 54 becomes the second jackpot mode, the second jackpot state occurs.

  The first and second special symbol display means 53 and 54 are disposed, for example, on the decorative frame 47 b of the central display frame unit 47. The first and second special symbols are not composed of, for example, numeric symbols, but are composed of a plurality of types of symbols consisting of combinations of lines and points that have no special meaning as such. A plurality are the first and second big hit modes, and the other are the first and second off modes. In the present embodiment, four types of A1 to A4 and B1 to B4 are provided as the first and second big hit modes (FIG. 9).

  Further, the first and second special symbol starting means during the special hold period including the time when the first special symbol display means 53 is changing, the time when the second special symbol display means 54 is changing, and the first and second big hit states. When the game balls 56 and 57 detect a game ball, the first and second special random number information obtained thereby are stored in a reserved state with a predetermined upper limit number of reserves, for example, 4 each as a limit. Then, when the reserved memory on the second special symbol side is 1 or more at the time when the special reserved period ends, the reserved memory of the second special symbol is digested and the second special symbol is changed, and the first special symbol is changed. When only the reserved memory on the symbol side is 1 or more, the reserved memory of the first special symbol is digested and the first special symbol is changed. As described above, in the present embodiment, the first special symbol and the second special symbol are not both fluctuating, and there is a reserved memory on both the first special symbol side and the second special symbol side. The second special symbol is changed preferentially. Note that the number of stored first and second special random number information (first and second special reserved numbers) is notified to the player by the liquid crystal display means 60 and the like.

  The big winning means 58 is an open / close-type winning means provided with an open / close plate 79 that can be switched between an open state in which a game ball can be won and a closed state in which a game ball cannot be won, and a game ball detecting means 58a for detecting a winning game ball. In the first and second jackpot states that occur when the first and second special symbols of the first and second special symbol display means 53 and 54 stop in the first and second jackpot mode after the fluctuation In addition, the opening / closing plate 79 opens to the front side in accordance with a predetermined opening pattern, and the game ball dropped thereon is awarded to the inside. The big winning means 58 is disposed, for example, at the lower right side of the central display frame unit 47 and downstream of the second special symbol starting means 57, and has a lower right flow path 76b than a game ball flowing down the left lower flow path 76a. The game balls that have flowed down are more likely to win prizes. When a game ball wins the big winning means 58, a predetermined number (13 in this case) of game balls per payout is paid out as a prize ball.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9, any one of a plurality of types of jackpot states is selected corresponding to the first and second jackpot modes A1 to A4 and B1 to B4. There are three types of opening patterns of the big winning means 58 in the jackpot state of this embodiment, 15R, 10R, 2R, the jackpot modes A1, B1 are 15R opening patterns, and the jackpot modes A2, A3, B2, B3 are The 10R opening pattern is assigned to the jackpots A4 and B4, respectively. Each open pattern of 15R and 10R is configured to perform a so-called round with a ball 15 times and 10 times, respectively, and the 2R open pattern is configured to perform a so-called round without a ball twice.

  The normal profit state generating means 106, when the stop symbol after the change of the normal symbol display means 51 becomes a winning mode based on the result of the hit determination by the normal symbol processing means 104 is a win, the second special symbol The opening / closing part 78 of the starting means 57 generates a normal profit state that changes to an open state according to any of a plurality of types of opening / closing patterns, for example. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, a normal opening / closing pattern (for example, 0.2 seconds × opened once) and an extended opening / closing pattern (for example, an opening / closing pattern set so that the opening time is longer than the normal opening / closing pattern) Two types of opening / closing patterns (2 seconds × 3 times opening) are set, and the normal opening / closing pattern is selected during the normal gaming state, and the extended opening / closing pattern is selected during the special gaming state.

  The special random number generation processing means 107 performs a special random number generation process for repeatedly generating a jackpot determination random number used for determination of a big hit / off, a symbol determination random number used for selection of a stop symbol after fluctuation of the special symbol, and other predetermined random numbers. Configured to do.

  The special start opening check processing means 108 performs processing based on winning of a game ball to the first and second special symbol start means 56 and 57, and any one of the first and second special symbol start means 56 and 57 is used. The first and second special random number information such as the jackpot determination random number value and the jackpot symbol random number value created by the special random number creation processing means 107 is acquired based on the winning of the game ball at the first and second, The special random number information is configured to be stored in the special random number storage means 109 with a predetermined upper limit reserved number (for example, four each) as a limit.

  Further, the special start port check processing means 108 includes a prefetch determination means 108a. This prefetch determination means 108a is a predetermined prior to being subjected to symbol fluctuations for the first and second special random number information acquired when a game ball wins the first and second special symbol starting means 56 and 57. At the time of acquisition of the first and second special random number information, for example, whether or not the jackpot determination random number value included in the first and second special random number information matches the first and second jackpot determination value (whether or not Pre-reading determination is made for (No). The prefetch determination result is transmitted to the effect control board 83a or the like by a hold addition command transmitted based on the winning of a game ball to one of the first and second special symbol starting means 56 and 57, for example.

  The special symbol processing means 110 performs processing related to the variable display of the first and second special symbols and effect symbols, and includes a jackpot probability setting means 110a. The jackpot probability setting means 110a is for setting a low probability value (jackpot probability) that is a jackpot based on the setting contents by the setting change operation means 91, that is, which of the settings 1 to 3 is selected. Also, a high probability value is set according to the set low probability value. In this embodiment, 1 / 316.599 is assigned to setting 1, 1 / 30.599 is assigned to setting 2, and 1 / 280.599 is assigned to setting 3 as low probability values that are jackpots. . Further, as a high probability value, 1 / 31.659 is assigned to setting 1, 1 / 30.059 is assigned to setting 2, and 1 / 28.059 is assigned to setting 3. Here, it is desirable that the high probability value is set to a value not exceeding 10 times the low probability value.

  Also, the special symbol processing means 110 waits for the second special random number information if the second special reserved number is 1 or more when the first and second special symbol display means 53 and 54 are in a variable display state. If only the first special reserved number is 1 or more from the queue, the first jackpot determination random number value is extracted from the queue of the first special random number information, and a predetermined jackpot probability is obtained by random number lottery using the jackpot determination random number value The determination of jackpot / displacement is made at the same time, and the stop symbol pattern of the first and second special symbols, the variation pattern of the effect symbol, etc. are determined according to the jackpot determination result. Note that the jackpot probability at the time of determining jackpot / losing is a predetermined high probability value during the probability variation state described later, and a low probability value set by the jackpot probability setting means 110a except during the probability variation state.

  When the jackpot determination result is a jackpot, the stop pattern mode of the first and second special symbols is, for example, the first and second jackpot modes A1 based on the jackpot symbol random number value included in the first and second special random number information. -A4, B1-B4 (FIG. 9) are selected, and when the jackpot determination result is out of order, for example, based on a newly acquired out-of-order symbol random value, one or more first and second out-of-phase Selected from. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9, in the case of jackpot, the types of the first and second jackpot states and special game states corresponding to the selected first and second jackpot modes (hereinafter referred to as jackpot types). Is decided). That is, when the jackpot mode A1, B1 is selected, the jackpot type is “15R probability variation”, when the jackpot mode A2, B2 is selected, the jackpot type is “10R probability variation”, and the jackpot mode A3, B3 is selected. In this case, the jackpot type is “10R short time”, and the jackpot type when the jackpot modes A4 and B4 are selected is “2R probability change (surprise)”.

  Here, the special game state is a game state that is advantageous to the player that occurs after the end of the jackpot state, and in this embodiment, two types of a short-time state and a probability change state are provided. During the short-time state, for example, the fluctuation time of the first and second special symbols is switched to a shortened fluctuation time that is shorter than the normal fluctuation time, and the probability that the normal symbol is hit is higher than the normal probability (for example, 1/10). To the probability (for example, 1 / 1.3), the variation time of the normal symbol from the normal variation time (for example, 27 seconds) to the shortened variation time (for example, 2.7 seconds), the second special symbol starter 57 in the normal profit state. The open / close pattern can be switched from a normal open / close pattern (for example, 0.2 seconds × 1 open) to an extended open / close pattern (for example, 2 seconds × 3 open) (FIG. 8). The short-time state ends when the next jackpot state occurs or when the first and second special symbols have changed a predetermined number of times (for example, 50 times).

  During the probabilistic state (specific game state), the probability that the first and second special symbols will be the first and second big hits will be switched to a higher probability value than normal (low probability value) and the same as in the time-short state Are also switched. The probability variation state ends when the next jackpot state occurs, but other termination conditions such as the number of fluctuations of the first and second special symbols may be added.

  In this embodiment, the probability (probability variation rate) that the probability variation state occurs (the predetermined condition is satisfied) after the jackpot state ends is 120/200, and the maximum number of jackpots (limit) when the probability variation state continues. ) Is not set (FIG. 5).

  The special symbol display control means 111 controls the display of the first and second special symbol display means 53 and 54, and based on the special symbol processing by the special symbol processing means 110, the first special symbol display means 53 or the second special symbol display means 53 or 54. The variation of the first and second special symbols in the selected stop symbol mode is started based on the fact that the variation time of the first and second special symbols by the two special symbol display means 54 is started and the selected variation time has elapsed. Is supposed to stop.

  The big hit state generating means (special game executing means) 112 is for generating the first and second big hit states advantageous for the player (special game is executed), and the special symbol processing means 110 determines the big hit / loss. When the result is a big hit (winning by random number lottery) and the stop symbol form after the change of the first and second special symbols becomes the first and second big hit forms, the big winning means 58 is set to a predetermined release pattern, for example, It is configured to generate the first and first jackpot states that are opened according to any of the three types of opening patterns 15R, 10R, and 2R shown in FIG.

  The special game state generation means (specific game state execution means) 113 is for generating a special game state advantageous to the player. After the first and second big hit states are finished, the first and second big hit states are changed. Correspondingly, it is configured to generate a special game state (FIG. 9) of any one of the short-time state and the probability variation state (specific game state).

  The winning processing means 114 performs processing related to paying out a winning ball by winning a game ball to each winning means, that is, the first and second special symbol starting means 56 and 57, the big winning means 58, and the normal winning means 59. For example, the winning numbers for each of the winning means 56 to 59 are counted based on the detection signals from the game ball detecting means 56a to 59a, and the count value of the winning number for each winning means and the set for each winning means. Based on the number of winning balls, for example, a payout number designation command is transmitted to the payout control board 90a via the control command transmitting means 115 for each winning prize. As described above, the number of winning balls in this embodiment is 3 for the first special symbol starting means 56, 2 for the second special symbol starting means 57, 12 for the normal winning means 59, and 13 for the large winning means 58. (Fig. 5).

  The control command transmission means 115 is for transmitting a predetermined control command to a sub-control board such as the effect control board 83a to give a control command. When the first and second special reserved numbers increase, Based on the special symbol processing by the special symbol processing means 110, the function of transmitting a pending addition command for specifying the addition of the second special reserved number to the production control board 83a side, 1.

It may be arranged on the rear side.

  FIG. 14 illustrates the sixth embodiment of the present invention. The third embodiment is partly modified, and low probability information (first information is displayed in both the first information display portion 67a and the second information display portion 67b. Information) 72 is displayed. Note that the present embodiment is different from the third embodiment only in the configuration of the information display unit, and the difference will be mainly described.

  As shown in FIGS. 14A and 14B, the first information display portion 67 a corresponds to the upper right portion of the game board 16 on the front wall portion 62 of the first rail member 46 a, and the second information display portion 67 b Corresponding to the lower right part of the game board 16, it is affixed to the front wall part 65 of the 3rd rail member 46c, respectively.

  As shown in FIG. 14A, low probability information 72 and a two-dimensional code 71 are displayed on the first information display section 67a. As in the first embodiment, the low probability information 72 includes first low probability value information 72a indicating a low probability value corresponding to setting 1 (here, 1 / 316.599) and low probability corresponding to setting 2. 2nd low probability value information 72b indicating a value (here 1 / 30.599) and third low probability value information 72c indicating a low probability value (here 1 / 280.599) corresponding to setting 3 The first to third low probability value information 72a to 72c are displayed in correspondence with each other in a plurality of columns.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 14B, the second information display section 67b includes a model name 68, prize ball number information 69, a two-dimensional code 71, a probability variation ratio 73, limit information 74, and low probability information 72 ′. And display information 121 is displayed separately. Unlike the low probability information 72 on the first information display unit 67a side, the low probability information 72 'is a simple display, for example, a lower limit value and an upper limit value among a plurality of values corresponding to a plurality of settings 1 to 3. Are displayed.

  Further, the separate display information 121 indicates that the detailed information regarding the low probability information 72 is separately described as “(details are described separately)”. In addition, the display position of the detailed information related to the low probability information 72 may be clearly indicated by the display information 121 separately as “(Details are described in the upper right part of the board)”.

  FIG. 15 illustrates the seventh embodiment of the present invention. The sixth embodiment is partly changed, and low probability information (first information is displayed in both the first information display section 67a and the second information display section 67b. Information) 72 is displayed, and the first information display unit 67a is displayed on the liquid crystal display means (image display means) 60. Note that the present embodiment is different from the sixth embodiment only in the configuration of the information display unit, and the difference will be mainly described.

  As shown in FIG. 15 (b), the second information display section 67b corresponds to the lower right portion of the game board 16 in front of the third rail member 46c, as in the sixth embodiment (FIG. 14 (b)). Affixed to the wall portion 65. The second information display section 67b displays a model name 68, prize ball number information 69, two-dimensional code 71, probability variation ratio 73, limit information 74, low probability information 72 ', and separate display information 121. ing.

Separately, the display information 121 indicates that the detailed information related to the low probability information 72 is displayed on the liquid crystal display means 60, such as “(Details are displayed on the liquid crystal)”.

  The first information display section 67a is not fixedly arranged on the front side of the game board 16 or the like by an adhesive sticker or the like, but is displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display means 60 at an arbitrary timing. For example, the first information display unit 67a may be displayed on the liquid crystal display unit 60 when a predetermined operation of the operation unit is performed by the player during a non-game state in which the symbol does not change. Further, the first information is displayed on the liquid crystal display means 60 not only in the non-game state but also when the player performs a predetermined operation of the operation means (for example, touch operation of the launch handle 32) even in the game state. The part 67a may be displayed. Moreover, when displaying the 1st information display part 67a in a gaming state, you may make it display as a part of notice about the symbol which is changing. Further, when a plurality of liquid crystal display means 60 are provided, the first information display section 67a may be displayed on a liquid crystal display means different from the liquid crystal display means that performs the variable display of symbols. Further, not only the first information display unit 67 a but also the second information display unit 67 b may be displayed on the liquid crystal display means 60. Moreover, you may make it display both the 1st information display part 67a and the 2nd information display part 67b on the liquid crystal display means 60. FIG. In addition, the expression that the first information display unit 67a and the second information display unit 67b are displayed has been described, but it is sufficient that at least various kinds of information included therein can be displayed on the liquid crystal display unit 60.

  As shown in FIG. 15A, the low probability information 72 displayed on the first information display unit 67a is a first low probability value indicating a low probability value corresponding to setting 1 (here, 1 / 316.599). Information 72a, second low probability value information 72b indicating a low probability value corresponding to setting 2 (here 1 / 30.599), and a low probability value corresponding to setting 3 (here 1 / 280.599). The first low probability value information 72c is displayed in a plurality of columns corresponding to the first low probability value information 72a to 72c.

  As described above, the second information display section 67b that simply indicates the low probability information 72 is fixedly arranged on the front side of the game board 16, and detailed information on the low probability information 72 is given to the liquid crystal display means 60 at a predetermined timing. You may make it display with.

  FIG. 16 illustrates an eighth embodiment of the present invention. The first embodiment is partially changed, and a plurality of display information displayed on the information display unit 67 is changed into the first display information and the second display information. An example is shown in which the first display information and the second display information are arranged in different directions. Since this embodiment is different from the first embodiment only in the configuration of the information display unit, the difference will be mainly described.

  As shown in FIG. 16, the information display unit 67 of the present embodiment is configured by an adhesive sticker whose back side is an adhesive surface, as in the first embodiment, and corresponds to, for example, the lower right portion of the game board 16. Are attached to the front wall portion 65 of the third rail member 46c. The information display part 67 is formed in a substantially trapezoidal shape with a lower side 122a being substantially horizontal along the lower edge part of the game board 16 and an upper side 122b being inclined upward, for example, along the guide rail 46. The right side 122c and the left side 122d are parallel and perpendicular to the lower side 122a.

  As in the first embodiment, the information display unit 67 displays a model name 68, prize ball number information 69, two-dimensional code 71, low probability information 72, probability variation ratio 73, limit information 74, and the like. The low probability information 72 includes, for example, first low probability value information 72a indicating a low probability value corresponding to setting 1 (here, 1 / 316.599), and a low probability value corresponding to setting 2 (here, 1/300. 599) and the second low probability value information 72c indicating the low probability value corresponding to setting 3 (in this case 1 / 280.599). The third low probability value information 72a to 72c are displayed in a plurality of columns in association with the upper and lower sides.

  Among the display information of the information display section 67, the model name 68 and the prize ball number information 69 are examples of the first display information, and the upper side of the information display section 67 along the upper side 122b (that is, along the guide rail 46). E) It is arranged in an upward slope. The other two-dimensional code 71, the low probability information 72, the probability variation ratio 73, and the limit information 74 are examples of the second display information. Along the lower side 122a on the lower side of the information display section 67 (that is, the game board 16). Along the bottom edge) are arranged substantially horizontally.

  As described above, the plurality of display information displayed on the information display unit 67 is classified into the first display information and the second display information. For example, the first display information and the second display information according to the outer shape of the information display unit 67 or the like. The arrangement direction may be different. In this case, it is desirable that the low probability information 72, the probability variation ratio 73, the limit information 74, and the like constituting the jackpot probability information 70 are arranged substantially horizontally in consideration of the player's readability and the like. The two-dimensional code 71 is also preferably displayed substantially horizontally (upright) in consideration of the efficiency of reading operation by the scanner.

  FIG. 17 illustrates the ninth embodiment of the present invention, and shows an example in which a part of the first embodiment is changed and new information is additionally displayed on the information display unit 67. Hereinafter, a description will be given focusing on differences from the first embodiment.

  In the information display unit 67 of this embodiment, ST continuation rate information 131 and setting change function information 132 are displayed in addition to the display information shown in the first embodiment. The ST continuation rate information (first information) 131 indicates the value of the ST continuation rate. For example, the first ST continuation rate information 131a indicating the ST continuation rate (55/100 in this case) corresponding to the setting 1 and the setting 2 Is composed of second ST continuation rate information 131b indicating ST continuation rate (here 60/100) and third ST continuation rate information 131c indicating ST continuation rate corresponding to setting 3 (here 65/100). For example, it is displayed side by side with the first to third low probability value information 72a to 72c.

  Here, the ST continuation rate is the probability of drawing the next jackpot during the ST. ST is a so-called frequency cut probability change, which means a probability change state that continues until the number of fluctuations of the first and second special symbols reaches a predetermined number. In the present embodiment, ST is always generated after the end of the jackpot state. The reason why the ST continuation rate is described for each setting is as follows. That is, in the case of a probability variation machine, the probability variation rate 120/200 is not changed even if the setting is changed, and therefore the probability that the probability variation will continue is constant at 120/200. On the other hand, in the case of the ST machine, “Winning the jackpot” = “Continuous change of probability” is set due to game characteristics, and the probability that the probability change will continue to change due to the change of the jackpot probability depending on the setting. For example, when the number of STs is 100 with high probability value 1 / 31.659 of setting 1 (the description of low probability values is omitted) and high probability value 1 / 28.059 of setting 3 (the description of low probability values is omitted) In the case where the number of STs is 100, the continuation rate is naturally higher in setting 3 than in setting 1. Thus, in the case of the ST machine, the jackpot probability is changed according to the setting, thereby affecting the continuation rate during probability change. For this reason, in the case of an ST machine, ST continuation rate information is displayed for each setting. Further, the continuation rate during probability change may be made substantially the same by changing the number of STs according to the setting. In that case, setting 1 is 80 times of ST and setting 3 is 100 times of ST. It is desirable to display.

  The setting change function information 132 is information related to the setting change function. For example, setting change function presence / absence information 132a indicating the presence / absence of the setting change function, setting stage number information 132b when the setting change function is present, and the like can be considered. In the present embodiment, the setting change function presence / absence information 132a is displayed as “with setting change function”, and the setting step number information 132b is displayed as “(3 steps)” in a form aligned with the setting change function presence / absence information 132a. .

  FIG. 18 illustrates the tenth embodiment of the present invention. The display mode of the low probability information 72, the ST continuation rate information 131, and the setting change function information 132 is partially changed from the ninth embodiment (FIG. 17). The example which changed is shown.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 18, for the low probability information 72 and the ST continuation rate information 131, the lower limit value and the upper limit value among the three levels corresponding to the settings 1 to 3 are displayed.

  Further, regarding the setting stage number information 132b, for example, by displaying “(1, 3, 6)”, in addition to the fact that the number of setting stages is 3, the numbers assigned to the respective setting stages (or Name). That is, in the present embodiment, the setting can be changed in three stages of setting 1, setting 3, and setting 6 (setting 2, setting 4, and setting 5 are not present).

  FIG. 19 exemplifies the eleventh embodiment of the present invention, and shows an example of the display position when the information display unit 67 is divided and displayed on the front side of the game board 16. In the game board 16, the base plate 45 has a substantially rectangular shape, whereas the game area 23 is formed in a substantially circular shape. Therefore, it is desirable that the information display unit 67 be arranged in the vicinity of the four corners of the upper left, upper right, lower left, and lower right with a relatively large space.

  In the third embodiment (FIG. 11), as shown in FIG. 18 (a), the first and second information display portions 67a and 67b are moved to the right side of the game board 16 and arranged in the upper right portion and the lower right portion. However, as shown in FIG. 18 (b), the first and second information display portions 67a and 67b may be arranged on the upper left and upper right portions of the game board 16, and may be arranged on the upper left and the upper right, respectively. As shown in (c), the first and second information display portions 67a and 67b may be arranged at the lower left portion and the lower right portion with the game board 16 being moved downward. Further, as shown in FIG. 18D, all of the first and second information display portions 67a and 67b may be arranged at any one of the four corners (here, the lower right portion) of the game board 16.

  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was explained in full detail, this invention is not limited to these embodiment, A various change is possible in the range which does not deviate from the meaning of this invention. For example, in the embodiment, a configuration that can be changed to three stages of settings 1 to 3 is adopted, but the number of setting stages is arbitrary, and may be two stages or four or more stages.

  A large number of various electronic components such as a main control CPU are arranged on the main control board 82a in the main board case 82, and among them, a base value calculated from the number of winnings and discharging during the game is included. A plurality of 7-segment displays for displaying the image are also included, but a 7-segment display for indicating the current setting may be provided. When the first information display unit 67a is arranged on the main board case 82 as in the fourth embodiment (FIG. 12), various electronic components on the main control board 82a side, particularly the main control CPU and the above-described 7 For example, it is desirable to arrange the Seg display or the like at a position that does not overlap with the back view. In this case, the entire individual electronic components may not be overlapped with the first information display portion 67a, and the respective electronic components may be disposed so as to partially overlap the first information display portion 67a. Further, when the first information display part 67a is made of a material having transparency, the entire individual electronic components may be arranged so as to overlap the first information display part 67a. This is because the visibility of each electronic component is not impaired even if the electronic components are arranged at overlapping positions. In addition, as long as the character information and the two-dimensional code of the first information display unit 67a do not overlap each electronic component, the other parts of the first information display unit 67a overlap each electronic component. You may arrange. Further, information (such as an arrow) indicating the position of the setting change operation unit 91 may be displayed on the first information display unit 67a.

  The setting change operation means 91 may be provided at a position other than the main board case 82. Further, when the first information display part 67a and / or the second information display part 67b is arranged on the rear side of the gaming machine body 1, the arrangement position is preferably in the vicinity of the setting change operation means 91, but other than the main board case 82. You may arrange | position in the position of. For example, it may be arranged on the back surface of the production substrate case 83 or on the back surface of the liquid crystal substrate case 84. Further, when a 7-segment display for indicating the current set value is arranged on the main control board 82a, it may be arranged in the vicinity thereof. Further, the jackpot probability information 70 and the like may be displayed not only on the substrate case but also on the substrate stored therein by silk printing or the like.

  In the embodiment, the information display part 67 on the front side of the game board 16 is attached to the front wall part of the rail members 46a to 46c. However, the information display part 67 may be attached to the front surface of the cell sheet 45a or the like. You may affix on a member. The arrangement position of the information display unit 67 may be in the game area 23, that is, in the area inside the guide rail 46.

  Moreover, even if the information display part 67 is affixed on the cell sheet 45a corresponding to the arrangement position of the rail members 46a-46c, for example, the information display part 67 can be visually recognized through the transparent part or opening part of the rail members 46a-46c. Good. The information display unit 67 may be directly printed on the rail members 46a to 46c and other members, in addition to being configured by an adhesive sticker.

  In the case where the information display unit 67 is divided and arranged at two or more positions, it is desirable that all the information display units share a display mode such as a base color and a character color. For example, when the first information display unit 67a is configured with black characters on a white base, the second information display unit 67b is also preferably configured with black characters on a white base. When displaying the display information 121 separately, the separate display information 121 may be provided in any of the plurality of information display units 67. For example, in the case of FIG. 11, separate display information 121 such as “described in the lower right of the board other than the jackpot probability” may be displayed on the first information display portion 67a.

  When displaying the lower limit value and the upper limit value among a plurality of values corresponding to a plurality of settings for the first information such as the low probability information 72 and the ST continuation rate information 131, the display method is arbitrary. The correspondence with the setting may be clearly shown as “setting 1 low probability 1 / 316.599 setting 3 low probability 1 / 280.599”.

  The setting stage number information 132b not only displays the number of setting stages, but also sets each setting stage such as “setting 1, setting 2, setting 3,” “settings 1-3,” “settings 1, 3, 6”. You may specify up to the number (or name) assigned to.

  In FIG. 11A and the like, an example in which the low probability information 72 and the two-dimensional code 71 are displayed obliquely in accordance with the first information display unit 67a provided in an inclined shape is shown. For example, for the two-dimensional code 71 May be displayed in an upright state regardless of the shape or inclination of the information display unit.

  When divided into the first information display part 67a and the second information display part 67b, the two-dimensional codes of the information display parts 67a and 67b may be the same or different. When the information is divided into the first information display part 67a and the second information display part 67b, the jackpot probability may be displayed on each of the information display parts 67a and 67b. In this case, the first information display unit 67a may display the jackpot probability for each setting, and the second information display unit 67b may display only the upper limit value and the lower limit value of the jackpot probability.

  When the jackpot probability is displayed on the liquid crystal display means 60, only the jackpot probability corresponding to the current setting may be displayed. Alternatively, the jackpot probabilities corresponding to all settings may be displayed, and the values corresponding to the current settings may be highlighted and displayed. As described above, it is desirable that the non-game state is desirable as the timing for displaying the jackpot probability on the liquid crystal display means 60. However, for example, the jackpot probability during the demonstration performance executed when the non-game state continues for a predetermined time (for example, 180 seconds). May be displayed. In this case, the jackpot probability is displayed on the liquid crystal display means 60 without any operation by the player.

  Further, in the case of a gaming machine in which the volume / light quantity can be adjusted by the player's operation, the volume / light quantity adjustment operation may be validated even when the jackpot probability is displayed on the liquid crystal display means 60. In addition, when a volume / light quantity adjustment operation is performed, a setting bar may be displayed so that the set value of the volume / light quantity can be known. However, it is desirable to display these setting bars at positions that do not overlap with the display of the jackpot probability.

  Further, when an error or the like occurs while displaying the jackpot probability on the liquid crystal display means 60, the error display may be executed together with the jackpot probability. However, it is desirable to display the characters constituting the error display at a position that does not overlap with the display of the jackpot probability.

  Moreover, you may make it perform the display relevant to a setting as a part of notice during a pattern fluctuation. For example, a display that suggests the current setting (for example, which of the settings 1 to 3) may be performed, or a setting for each stage of the gaming machine may be displayed. Moreover, you may comprise so that the generation | occurrence | production probability of these notifications may differ according to a setting.

  When the first information display unit 67a and the second information display unit 67b are displayed at different positions on the board surface, it is desirable that no light emitting means such as an LED be disposed behind the information display units 67a and 67b. By comprising in this way, even if each information display part 67a, 67b has a transparency, the visibility from the front is not inhibited by light, such as LED of a back side. In addition, the “rear side” means that it is located completely behind the information display parts 67a and 67b, and even if the information display parts 67a and 67b are slightly shifted from each other in the irradiation region. The case where the information display parts 67a and 67b exist is also included. Further, when the LED or the like must be arranged on the rear side of the information display portions 67a and 67b by design, it is desirable that the information display portions 67a and 67b themselves (for example, sticker stickers) be impermeable.

  The setting change operation means 91 for changing the setting may be provided on a board different from the main control board 82a. For example, a setting change operation board may be provided separately, and the setting change operation means 91 may be provided thereon. In this case, it is desirable to display the jackpot probability on the board case that houses the setting change operation board. The jackpot probability may be displayed by silk printing or the like not on the substrate case but on the inner substrate.

  In the embodiment, when a jackpot probability (low probability value) for each setting is displayed, one setting is assigned to one row and displayed in a plurality of upper and lower columns (for example, three rows in the case of settings 1 to 3). However, a plurality of settings may be assigned to one row. For example, when the setting can be changed in six stages from setting 1 to 6, the jackpot probability of setting 1 and setting 2 is set in the first column, the jackpot probability of setting 3 and setting 4 is set in the second column, and the third column is set. The jackpot probabilities of 5 and setting 6 may be displayed respectively. In addition, when it is possible to change the setting at odd levels (for example, 5 levels), the most advantageous setting for the player (for example, setting 5) is assigned to a single row, and the others are set to multiple (two) in a row. For example, the jackpot probability of settings 1 and 2 may be displayed in the first column, the jackpot probability of settings 3 and 4 may be displayed in the second column, and the jackpot probability of setting 5 may be displayed in the third column.

  In the embodiment, when the jackpot probability for each setting is displayed in a simplified manner, the upper limit value and the lower limit value are described. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the upper limit value, the intermediate value, and the lower limit value (for example, 1 / 280.599 to 300.599 to 316.599) may be displayed. Further, when displaying the jackpot probability for each setting in a simplified manner, the numbers after the decimal point may be omitted and displayed, for example, 1/280 to 316. When the jackpot probability for each setting is displayed in a simplified manner, it is displayed in a simplified manner for each of a plurality of groups. For example, in the case of 6 levels, the upper and lower limits of the settings 1 to 3 and the upper limits of the settings 4 to 6 are displayed. You may make it display a value and a lower limit.

  When the first information display unit 67a is arranged on the main board case 82, the first information display unit 67a displays various information related to the gaming machine such as the model name of the gaming machine in addition to the jackpot probability. May be.

  The open / close cover 85 that covers the back side of the game board 16 disposed on the back side of the front frame 3 may be configured to overlap with a part of the main board case 82 in a closed state (FIG. 6). In this case, when the first information display unit 67a for displaying the jackpot probability corresponding to each setting is arranged on the main board case 82 or the main control board 82a, it is desirable to arrange the first information display section 67a so as not to overlap the opening / closing cover 85. . Further, from the viewpoint of preventing fraud, when the opening / closing cover 85 is configured to overlap substantially the entire main board case 82, the first information display portion 67a is at least positioned so as not to overlap the lower end portion of the opening / closing cover 85. It is desirable to arrange. In this case, the opening / closing cover 85 and the jackpot probability display are arranged at a position where they overlap, but the jackpot probability display does not overlap the lower end portion of the opening / closing cover 85, so when viewed from the rear of the gaming machine, The visibility of the jackpot probability display is not hindered by the lower end portion of the opening / closing cover 85.

  Even when the jackpot probability display and the opening / closing cover 85 overlap, it is desirable that the setting change operation means 91 is arranged at a position where it does not overlap the opening / closing cover 85. With this configuration, the setting change operation can be performed without opening the opening / closing cover 85. Further, from the viewpoint of preventing fraud, the setting change operation unit 91 may be configured to be provided with a separate rear cover. Even when the setting change operation means 91 is provided on the setting change operation board, the same configuration as that when the setting change operation means 91 is provided on the main control board 82a as described above may be used.

  When the first information display unit 67a and / or the second information display unit 67b are arranged on the board surface, the first information display unit 67a and / or the second information display unit 67b are viewed from the front when the glass door 7 is closed. Is preferably displayed at a position where it can be visually recognized. Further, the information display unit may be arranged at a position where a part of the information display part can be visually recognized, instead of the position where the entire information display part is visible. In this case, it is desirable that at least the jackpot probability corresponding to each setting is displayed at a position that can be viewed in front view. If the entire first information display unit 67a and / or the second information display unit 67b is to be displayed at a position where it can be viewed in front view, the display is forced to be displayed on the center side of the board. Position and space will be limited. Therefore, even if the overall visibility of the first information display unit 67a and / or the second information display unit 67b cannot be ensured, by ensuring the visibility of at least some important information, the corners of the board surface can be further improved. It is possible to display. For example, the number of winning balls other than the jackpot probability, the probability variation ratio, the presence / absence of a limit, and other information may be displayed at a position where it is difficult to visually recognize (a position overlapping a part of the glass door 7 in front view).

  Further, the present invention can be similarly implemented in game machines other than ball game machines such as slot machines, in addition to various ball game machines such as arrange ball machines and sparrow ball game machines.
