  The second transmission body 260 is made of a transparent synthetic resin material such as transparent acrylic resin, polycarbonate resin, methacrylic resin, and the like. And a frame body 262 formed in a frame shape from a light synthetic resin material. The rear transmission plate 261 is fixed to the back surface of the frame body 262 with an adhesive or the like so as to close the opening 262A of the frame body 262.

  The first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 configured as described above are configured such that screws N2 attached from the front side to a plurality of attachment holes formed in the flange portion 256 of the first cylindrical body 252 are frame bodies 262. A single window unit 51 </ b> A is formed by being integrated by screwing into a screw hole formed in the window. As shown in FIG. 3, the window unit 51 </ b> A is attached to the back side of the opening / closing frame 50 in the open position for opening the gaming machine frame 3 so as to close the opening (not shown) of the opening / closing frame 50. .

  The window unit 51A can be attached to and detached from the opening / closing frame 50, and can be replaced in accordance with a model change or the like. Specifically, the locking hook provided on the frame body 262 is used as the locking pin in a state where the locking pin protruding from the back surface of the opening / closing frame 50 is inserted into the locking hole formed in the frame body 262. It is attached by locking.

  When the opening / closing frame 50 is rotated from the open position to the closed position and the front surface of the gaming machine frame 3 is closed with the window unit 51A attached to the back surface of the opening / closing frame 50, as shown in FIG. A board 261 is disposed in front of the board surface board 200 of the game board 2 in parallel with the board surface board 200 with a predetermined gap, and a game ball can flow between the board surface board 200 and the rear transmission plate 261. A game area 10 is formed.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 8, the rear transmission plate 261 is an entire area of the game area 10 surrounded by the guide rail 2b on the game board surface 200A of the board board 200 when the pachinko gaming machine 1 is viewed from the front (player side). The hole 270 is disposed at a position corresponding to the opening 2 c formed in the board surface plate 200.

  In the present embodiment, the game area 10 is an area where a game ball can flow down, that is, an area excluding the opening 2c in an area surrounded by the guide rail 2b on the game board surface 200A of the board board 200, and an opening 2c. Corresponding areas, that is, areas where the effect display devices 5A, 5X, 5Y and various movable bodies described later are provided so as to be visible from the player (areas shown by hatching in FIG. 8). In addition, the center decoration frame 52 is provided in the opening 2c, so that the game ball is restricted from flowing into the opening 2c.

  In the present embodiment, the hole 270 is different in shape and size from the opening 2c formed in the panel board 200, and is provided at a position corresponding to the opening 2c. The invention is not limited to this, and may be formed substantially in the same shape as the hole 270, or a part thereof may be located outside the opening 2c.

  Therefore, the gaming area 10 configured in this way is viewed through the front transmission plate 251 and the rear transmission plate 261 constituting the window portion 51 from the player side in front of the pachinko gaming machine 1 (transparent). (Refer to the window 51 shown by the mesh area in FIG. 4A). As shown in FIG. 9, the rear transmission plate 261 and the game board surface 200A are installed in a standing state so as to be parallel to each other, whereas the front transmission plate 251 is gradually inclined rearward from the upper side to the lower side. Thus, since it is arranged in a forward tilting posture inclined with respect to the rear transmission plate 261, the lower separation dimension L2 is shorter than the separation dimension L1 than the upper separation dimension L1 with respect to the rear transmission plate 261. ing.

  The first transmission body 250 including the front transmission plate 251 as the plate-shaped portion and the first cylindrical body 252 and the second cylindrical body 253 as the cylindrical portions is the rear transmission that constitutes the second transmission body 260. A cylindrical portion formed of a first cylindrical body 252 and a second cylindrical body 253 is formed in a convex shape that protrudes forward with respect to the plate 261 and the window unit 51 </ b> A is attached to the opening / closing frame 50. The opening of the opening / closing frame 50 is provided so as to be inserted from the back side and protrude forward.

  Therefore, the rear transmission plate 261 that forms the game area 10 together with the game board surface 200 </ b> A is accommodated within the plate thickness dimension in the front-rear direction of the opening / closing frame 50, while the cylindrical portion is provided so as to protrude forward with respect to the front surface of the opening / closing frame 50. Thus, the front transmission plate 251 can be disposed as far as possible from the rear transmission plate 261 as much as possible without increasing the longitudinal dimension of the opening / closing frame 50. Thereby, a wide space S can be formed between the front transmission plate 251 and the rear transmission plate 261.

  Moreover, the upper wall part of the 1st cylindrical body 252 and the 2nd cylindrical body 253 is formed so that it may incline below toward the front, and external light from the front upper direction of the pachinko game machine 1 is made into the game area | region 10. Since the upper part of the game area 10 is hidden by the upper wall part because it is difficult to enter, the player's eye position is located below the upper wall part, so that it can be seen by looking up.

  In addition, in the pachinko gaming machine 1, for example, a magnetic sensor is erroneously operated by pressing a magnet against the front transmission plate 251 to illegally generate a prize, or a game ball flowing down the game area 10 is generated by a magnetic force. There is a possibility that an illegal act such as illegally guiding may be performed, but without increasing the thickness of the rear transmission plate 261 by increasing the separation dimensions L1 and L2 between the front transmission plate 251 and the rear transmission plate 261. Since the front transmission plate 251 can be moved away from the game area 10 as much as possible, the influence of the magnetic force of the magnet can be attenuated, so that illegal acts by the magnet can be suitably suppressed. In addition, in a gaming machine equipped with a magnet sensor that detects unauthorized magnetism, the above-mentioned fraudulent behavior can be reduced by increasing the distance between the front transmission plate 251 and the rear transmission plate 261 in a range that cannot be detected by the magnet sensor. While being able to suppress suitably, the number of arrangement | positioning of a magnet sensor can be reduced.

  Next, a movable body unit having the first movable body 300, the second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R will be described with reference to FIGS.

Since each movable body is arrange | positioned at the peripheral side of the opening 2c of the game board 2 at this time, the display screen of production | presentation display apparatus 5A, 5X, 5Y can be visually recognized now from a player (front side) ( (See FIG. 13). For example, as shown in FIG. 1, it can be said that the first standby position (origin position) of the first movable body 300 is a position where the first movable body 300 does not overlap the effect display device 5A. In addition, the 1st standby position (origin position) of the 1st movable body 300 is not limited to this, For example, it is good also as a position where the 1st movable body 300 overlaps with a part of effect display apparatus 5A. In addition, as shown in FIG. 16, only a part of the front side of the first movable body 300 at the first standby position (origin position) is slightly passed through the hole 270 of the rear transmission plate 261. Although it has entered between 250 and the second transmission body 260, it may be prevented from entering.

  As shown in FIG. 11, in the first operation mode of the movable body unit, the first movable body 300 is the first effect position, the second movable body 400 is the second effect position, the third movable body 500L, 500R is arranged at the third effect position, the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R are arranged at the fourth standby position, the first movable body 300 is in the first rotation state, and the first protrusion 303 is the first projection section 303. The second projecting portion 304 is in the second storage state. At this time, the first movable body 300, the second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the first projecting portion 303 are disposed on the front side of the effect display devices 5A, 5X, and 5Y, and have a predetermined shape. They are combined by contacting or coming close to each other so as to constitute an object (see FIG. 14). In other words, after performing the first control, the effect control CPU 120 can control the first movable body 300 to move the second movable body 400 and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R so that they can be combined.

  12, in the second operation mode of the movable body unit, the first movable body 300 is the first effect position, the second movable body 400 is the second standby position, the third movable body 500L, 500R is disposed at the third standby position, and the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R are disposed at the fourth presentation position. The first movable body 300 is in the second rotation state, and the first protrusion 303 is the first projection section 303. The housed state is entered, and the second projecting portion 304 is in the second projecting state. At this time, the first movable body 300, the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R, and the second projecting portion 304 are disposed on the front side of the effect display devices 5A, 5X, and 5Y, and a structure having a shape different from that of the first operation mode is used. They are combined by contacting or coming close to each other as shown (see FIG. 15). In other words, after performing the first control, the effect control CPU 120 can perform control to move the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R to the first movable body 300 so as to be combined.

  Further, when the second movable body 400 and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R are combined with the first movable body 300 in the first operation mode, or when the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R are combined with the first movable body 300 in the second operation mode. The second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R are arranged on the rear side of the rear transmission plate 261 (see FIG. 17). FIG. 18).

  Therefore, when the first movable body 300, the second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R are combined, the moving direction of the first movable body 300 in the first control, That is, since it is located at a different position in the front-rear direction, a sense of depth can be generated.

  Next, an example of operation control of the movable body unit by the effect control CPU 120 will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 19 is a timing chart showing an example of the operation of each movable body and the effect LED in the movable body effect.

  As shown in FIGS. 13 and 16, in the operation standby mode of the movable body unit, the first movable body 300 is configured such that a part on the surface A side (front side) of the main body 302 is rearward at the first standby position. It is located on the front transmission plate 251 side, that is, on the front side with respect to the rear transmission plate 261 via the hole 270 of the transmission plate 261 (see particularly the solid line portions in FIGS. 13 and 16).

  In the movable body effect in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 19, the effect control CPU 120 satisfies the start condition of the movable body effect (for example, operating means (for example, an effect button or a stick during the execution of the movable effect). The first movable body 300, the second movable body, etc.) when the operation of the operation means is detected during the operation reception period of the controller 31A, etc. 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R are operated. The effect LED 9 performs a light emission effect in the first light emission mode.

  Specifically, the first movable body 300 is moved obliquely downward from the first standby position toward the first effect position by the first drive mechanism 310 (see arrow 1 in FIGS. 13 and 16). As shown in the phantom lines in FIGS. 13 and 16, when the first movable body 300 moves to the first effect position, the predetermined portion (front half) on the surface A side (front side) of the main body portion 302 is rearward. Through the hole 270 of the transmission plate 261, it is positioned on the front transmission plate 251 side with respect to the rear transmission plate 261, and the main body 302 is disposed on the front side with respect to the first standby position. That is, the CPU 120 for effect control has the first movable body 300 in the first standby position, with the predetermined portion (front half) on the surface A side (front side) of the main body 302 via the hole 270 of the rear transmission plate 261. It is possible to execute the first control of moving to the front side until the rear transmission plate 261 is positioned on the front transmission plate 251 side. The second movable body 400 moves toward the second effect position, and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R move toward the third effect position.

  When the first movable body 300, the second movable body 400, and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R move to a predetermined position, they are detected by a first effect position sensor, a second effect position sensor, and a third effect position sensor (not shown), The effect control CPU 120 causes the first movable body 300 to be in the first rotation state based on the fact that the first effect position sensor, the second effect position sensor, and the third effect position sensor detect each movable object. The rotation shaft 305 is rotated counterclockwise as viewed from the right side (first rotation, see arrow 2 in FIGS. 14 and 17). The effect control CPU 120 stops the first rotation of the first movable body 300 based on the detection of the first movable body 300 by the first rotation position sensor. At this time, the front end sides of the second movable body 400 and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R tilt forward (see the arrow 3 in FIGS. 14 and 17), and the first movable body 300, the second movable body 400, the third The movable bodies 500L and 500R are combined. Even when rotating, the predetermined portion (front half) on the surface A side (front side) of the main body 302 is located on the front transmission plate 251 side of the rear transmission plate 261 through the hole 270 of the rear transmission plate 261. Yes.

  Next, the effect control CPU 120 causes the effect LED 9 to emit light in the second light emitting mode, and the surface A of the main body 302 until the third drive mechanism 330 detects the first protrusion 303 by the first protrusion position sensor. The first projecting state is obtained by projecting outward from the first position. As described above, when the first movable body 300 is in the first rotation state, the surface A of the main body portion 302 faces diagonally forward and upward, and thus the first projecting portion 303 projects diagonally forward and upward. (See arrow 4 in FIGS. 14 and 17). That is, the first protrusion 303 moves in a direction that intersects the moving direction (obliquely downward direction) of the main body 302. In other words, after executing the first control, the effect control CPU 120 causes the first protrusion 303, which is a part of the predetermined portion (front half) on the surface A side (front side) of the main body 302, to be the first control. It is possible to execute the second control for moving in a direction (front upper direction) intersecting the movement direction (front lower direction). By executing the first control and the second control, the movable body unit changes to the first operation mode.

  As described above, the first movable body 300 is a space portion S in which the first protrusion 303 is formed between the front transmission plate 251 and the rear transmission plate 261 after the main body 302 is moved obliquely forward and downward. Since it protrudes diagonally forward and upward, the moving operation of the first protrusion 303 can be suitably shown without contacting the rear transmission plate 261. Further, the front transmission plate 251 is not contacted even when changing to the first operation mode or the second operation mode.

  Further, in the first operation mode in which the predetermined portion on the front side of the main body 302 is located in the space S on the front side of the rear transmission plate 261, the first protruding portion 303 is changed to the first protruding state. As shown in FIG. 14, when viewed from the front side of the pachinko gaming machine 1, the first protrusion 303 moves so as to spread around the main body 302, that is, protrudes, so that a part of the main body 302 is expanded. And since the 1st movable body 300 seems to expand, it can give an impact to a player.

  In addition, even after the first protruding portion 303 is changed to the first protruding state so as to spread around the main body portion 302, the first protruding portion 303 corresponds to the hole portion 270 when viewed from the front side of the pachinko gaming machine 1. It protrudes out of the area to be played, that is, it does not protrude toward the game area 10 side of the game ball, so the first protrusion 303 does not hinder the visual recognition of the game ball.

  In the first operation mode of the movable body unit, the first movable body 300, the second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the first projecting portion 303 form a predetermined shape. To do. Specifically, the second movable body 400 is disposed below or in contact with the first movable body 300, and the third movable bodies 500 </ b> L and 500 </ b> R are disposed on the left and right sides of the first movable body 300. Since the second movable body 400 and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R serve as support means for the first movable body 300 and support each other by being arranged close to each other, the projecting operation of the first projecting portion 303 is performed. In addition, shaking of the first movable body 300 after the protruding operation is suppressed, and the posture can be stabilized.

  In addition, most of the second movable body 400 and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R are disposed closer to the game area 10 (rear side) than the rear transmission plate 261 when combined with the first movable body 300. , A sense of depth can be generated in a structure formed by merging.

  Moreover, since the brightness | luminance of the 2nd light emission mode of LED9 for production | presentation has fallen rather than the 1st light emission mode, when a movable body unit is the 1st operation | movement form (at the time of 2nd control), each light by the LED9 for production | presentation A decrease in the visibility of the movable body can be suppressed.

  Next, the effect control CPU 120 moves the first protrusion 303 until the first storage position sensor detects the first protrusion 303 based on the fact that the state of the first operation mode of the movable body unit has elapsed for the first time. The second movable body 400 is moved to the second standby position and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R are moved to the third standby position until the second standby position sensor and the third standby position sensor detect it. (See arrow 5 in FIGS. 15 and 18). Next, after the second movable body 400 and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R reach a position where they do not interfere with the rotational movement of the first movable body 300, the first movable body 300 is rotated so as to be in the second rotational state. The moving shaft 305 is rotated clockwise as viewed from the right side (second rotation, see arrows 6 in FIGS. 15 and 18), and the effect LED 9 is caused to emit light in the third light emission mode. The effect control CPU 120 stops the second rotation of the first movable body 300 based on the detection of the first movable body 300 by the second rotation position sensor.

  Then, the second projecting portion 304 is projected until it is detected by the second projecting position sensor to be in the second projecting state (see the arrow 7 in FIGS. 15 and 18), and the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R are It moves toward the fourth effect position until it is detected by the fourth effect position sensor (see arrow 7 in FIGS. 15 and 18). That is, after executing the first control, the effect control CPU 120 causes the second projecting portion 304 that is a part of the predetermined portion (front half) on the surface A side (front side) of the main body 302 to be in the first control. It is possible to execute the second control for moving in a direction (front upper direction) intersecting the movement direction (front lower direction). By executing the first control and the second control, the movable body unit changes to the second operation mode. At this time, the production LED 9 is caused to emit light in the fourth light emission mode.

  Further, in the second operation mode in which the predetermined part on the front side of the main body part 302 is located in the space part S on the front side of the rear transmission plate 261, the second protruding part 304 is changed to the second protruding state. As shown in FIG. 15, when viewed from the front side of the pachinko gaming machine 1, the second protrusion 304 moves so as to spread around the main body 302, that is, protrudes, so that a part of the main body 302 is expanded. And since the 1st movable body 300 seems to expand, it can give an impact to a player.

  In addition, the second protrusion 304 corresponds to the hole 270 when viewed from the front side of the pachinko gaming machine 1 even after the second protrusion 304 has changed to the second protrusion state so as to spread around the main body 302. It protrudes out of the area to be played, that is, it does not protrude to the flow-down area of the game ball, so that the visual recognition of the game ball is not hindered by the first protrusion 303.

  In the second operation form of the movable body unit, the first movable body 300, the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R, and the second protrusion 304 are combined so as to form a structure having a shape different from that of the first operation form. To do. Specifically, the fourth movable bodies 600 </ b> L and 600 </ b> R are arranged on the left and right sides of the first movable body 300 so that the fourth movable bodies 600 </ b> L and 600 </ b> R are in contact with or close to each other. Therefore, the second projecting portion 304 is prevented from projecting, the first movable body 300 is shaken after the projecting operation, and the posture can be stabilized.

  In addition, most of the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R are arranged on the game area 10 side (rear side) with respect to the rear transmission plate 261 when combined with the first movable body 300, and thus are configured to be combined. A sense of depth can be generated in the structure (see FIG. 12).

  Moreover, since the brightness | luminance of the 4th light emission mode of LED9 for production | presentation has fallen compared with the 1st light emission mode and the 3rd light emission mode, when a movable body unit is a 2nd operation | movement form (at the time of 2nd control), it is for production. Decrease in visibility of each movable body can be suppressed by the light of the LED 9.

  When the second operation mode of the movable body unit ends the rendering operation by each movable body when the predetermined time elapses, the rendering control CPU 120 moves the second protrusion 304 until it is detected by the second storage position sensor. The second movable state is set, and the first movable body 300 is set to the first standby position, and the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R are set to the fourth standby position until detection by the first standby position sensor and the fourth standby position sensor. Move toward (storage operation). At this time, the production LED 9 is caused to emit light in the fifth light emission mode. When the first movable body 300 moves to the first standby position and the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R move to the fourth standby position, the movable body presentation by the movable body unit is completed.

  In addition, the 1st light emission mode-the 5th light emission mode by LED9 for production should just be a different aspect according to the various operation modes of a movable body. The light emission mode includes, for example, a color to emit light, luminance, lighting or blinking, blinking speed, and the like.

  Next, the production effect in the light emission production by the production LED 9 and the movable body LEDs 350A, 350B, 350CL, 350CR, 350DL, and 350DR will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 20A is a schematic view of the light emission mode of the effect LED and the movable body LED as viewed from the side, and FIG. .

  As shown in FIGS. 20A and 20B, the production LED 9 arranged around the first transmission body 250 on the front surface of the opening / closing frame 50 irradiates light toward the first transmission body 250. Since the outer peripheral surface of the first transmission body 250 (first cylindrical body 252) is plated, the light from the production LED 9 is reflected and does not enter the first transmission body 250. ing. Further, ambient outside light R other than the light from the production LED 9 (for example, light such as indoor light of a game shop or light from an adjacent gaming machine) does not enter the first transmission body 250 in the same manner. It has become.

  That is, the visibility of each movable body and the game area 10 can be prevented from being lowered, and the light emitting effects of the movable body LEDs 350A, 350B, 350CL, 350CR, 350DL, and 350DR can be prevented from being affected. In addition, by irradiating the periphery of the first transmission body 250, it is possible to make it stand out so as to surround the periphery of each movable body, and not only to a player who plays a game on the pachinko gaming machine 1, but also to the surroundings. You can appeal the production.

  The movable body LED includes a movable body LED 350A attached to the main body 302 facing the front side (player side), a movable body LED 350B attached to the second projecting portion 304, and movable body LEDs 350CL and 350CR facing the side surface. Each light which faces the back side (game area 10 side) consists of movable body LEDs 350DL and 350DR (light emitting means). Light to the front side by the movable body LEDs 350A and 350B is irradiated to the front side through the front transmission plate 251, and light to the back side by the movable body LEDs 350DL and 350DR is a game area 10 (a game ball flowing down the game area 10, It is designed to irradiate a prize opening and a guide passage. The light toward the side surfaces of the movable body LEDs 350CL and 350CR is irradiated toward the first transmission body 250, but the inner peripheral surface of the first transmission body 250 (second cylindrical body 253) is plated. Therefore, the light from the movable body LEDs 350CL and 350CR is reflected to the front side. That is, it is possible to collect the light on the front side and enhance the effect, and it is possible to prevent the light emission effect of the effect LED 9 from being affected.

  Next, an example of the display device effect in the effect display devices 5X and 5Y will be described with reference to FIG. 21A is a schematic diagram showing a standby state indicating the normal time of the effect display device, FIG. 21B is a schematic diagram showing a first operation state of the effect display device, and FIG. 21C is a second diagram of the effect display device. It is the schematic which shows an operation state.

  As shown in FIG. 21A, during the normal time of the effect display device, the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are in a standby state in which they are arranged on both the left and right sides of the effect display device 5A. In this standby state, the standby state is arranged with the display unit slightly tilted so as to face the center side.

  Note that rail members (guide means) (not shown) for guiding the movement of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are provided above and below the effect display devices 5X and 5Y, respectively. This rail member is composed of a portion extending in the front-rear direction at a position on the front side of the effect display device 5A, and a portion extending in a direction away from the left and right ends of the front and rear portions, and the effect display devices 5X and 5Y. Is attached to the rail member so as to be rotatable about a vertical rotation axis. As described above, the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are provided to be movable and rotatable by the display device drive mechanism 900 including a rail member, a drive motor, and the like (not shown).

  When the predetermined start condition for the display device effect is satisfied, the effect control CPU 120 moves the effect display devices 5X and 5Y closer to the position on the front side of the effect display device 5A as shown in FIG. After that, the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are changed to the first operation state by moving from the rear side position of the rear transmission plate 261 to the front side position through the hole 270. That is, the CPU 120 for effect control uses the effect display devices 5X and 5Y in a standby state at a position on the back side of the rear transmission plate 261, and a predetermined portion of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y passes through the hole 270 of the rear transmission plate 261. Thus, it is possible to execute the third control in which the rear transmission plate 261 is moved to the front side until it is positioned on the front transmission plate 251 side.

  The effect display devices 5X and 5Y move to a position closer to the front transmission plate 251 than the rear transmission plate 261 while the display unit is slightly inclined so as to face the center side, so that the player can easily see the display unit. The movement of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y can be suitably shown while maintaining the state.

  When the effect display devices 5X and 5Y move to a position closer to the front transmission plate 251 than the rear transmission plate 261, the effect control CPU 120 separates the effect display devices 5X and 5Y from each other as shown in FIG. The display unit of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y is rotated by a rotation motor (not shown) so as to face outward in the left-right direction. In other words, after performing the third control, the effect control CPU 120 can execute the fourth control for moving in the direction (left-right direction) intersecting the moving direction (front-rear direction) in the third control. By executing the third control and the fourth control, the effect display devices 5X and 5Y change to the second operation state.

  In addition, since the display units of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y face outward in the left-right direction in the second operation state, it is possible to make the display content of the display unit visible to non-players. The rail member that guides the movement of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y has the effect display devices 5X and 5X when changing from the standby state to the first operation state and when changing from the first operation state to the second operation state. Since it functions as a contact prevention means for preventing contact between 5Y and the rear transmission plate 261, it is possible to prevent the effect display devices 5X and 5Y or the rear transmission plate 261 from being damaged.

  Next, the relationship between the rear transmission plate 261 and the first movable body 300 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 22 is a schematic diagram illustrating a state in which the opening / closing frame is opened in the second operation mode of the movable body unit.

  As shown in FIG. 22, the hole 270 of the rear transmission plate 261 is formed larger than the first movable body 300. More specifically, when the opening / closing frame 50 is opened and closed, the hole 270 also rotates about the hinge portion (vertical rotation axis) of the opening / closing frame 50. The first movable body 300 in the second operation mode of the movable body unit is the most protruding movable body in each operation mode of the movable body unit, and the front portion of the first movable body 300 (the closed state of the opening / closing frame 50) The portion disposed on the front transmission plate 251 side with respect to the hole portion 270 is disposed in the rotation region Z of the hole portion 270.

  Therefore, even if the opening / closing frame 50 is opened / closed, the rear transmission plate 261 does not contact the first movable body 300. According to this, for example, when an operation error or the like occurs during the operation of the movable body unit, that is, during the execution of the first control or the second control, it becomes necessary to perform maintenance by opening the open / close frame 50. Even if it exists, since the opening-and-closing frame 50 can be opened without contacting the rear transmission plate 261, the rear transmission plate 261 and the first movable body 300 can be prevented from being damaged.

(Progress of games, progress of production, etc.)
Next, the progress of the game in the pachinko gaming machine 1 will be schematically described. When the player rotates the hitting operation handle of the pachinko gaming machine 1, the game ball is launched toward the game area 10. Based on the fact that the game ball that has flowed down the game area 10 has passed through the passage gate 41, the normal game on 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. Note that when the usual game cannot be started, such as during the following opening control in which another usual game is already being executed, the execution of the usual game is suspended up to four or the like. The held ordinary game is started when it becomes possible to start.

  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. When the special figure game cannot be started (when the start condition is not satisfied), such as when another special figure game has already been executed or the game is controlled to the big hit game state described later, four etc. The special figure game is suspended with an upper limit of. The reserved special game is executed when the start condition is satisfied.

  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 (special symbol such as “3”, “7”, etc.) is stopped and displayed, it becomes “big hit” as a specific display result, and a special symbol different from the big bonus symbol (losing) If a symbol (for example, a special figure such as “-”) is stopped and displayed, it becomes “disconnected”. 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. The big hit gaming state is an advantageous state advantageous for the player. When the variation display result in the special figure game is “losing”, it is not controlled to the big hit gaming state.

  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, which is the open cycle of the big prize opening, is repeatedly executed until the number of executions reaches a predetermined upper limit number (for example, “16” or the like) (the big prize opening is closed in a period other than the round game).

  In the effect symbol display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R of the effect display device 5A, the variation display of the effect symbols is started in response to the start of the special game. 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 refers to an effect symbol that has not been stopped and displayed when the effect symbol that is stopped and displayed in the display area of the effect display device 5A or the effect display devices 5X and 5Y constitutes a part of the jackpot combination. This is a display state in which the fluctuation continues, or a display state in which all or part of the design symbols change synchronously while constituting all or part of the jackpot combination.

  In the embodiment, the reach effect is executed in response to the reach mode during the variable display. Normal reach, super reach A (development from normal reach), and super reach B (development from normal reach) are prepared as reach productions. In the embodiment, the big hit expectation is higher in the order of super reach B> super reach A> normal reach (normal reach not developed into super reach). The big hit expectation is, for example, a ratio at which the variable display result of the special figure game is “big hit”, and here is also a ratio at which the display result of the variable display of the effect symbol is “big hit”.

  When the variable display result of the special figure game is “big hit”, a predetermined big hit combination is obtained as the display result of the variable display of the effect symbols in the display area of the effect display device 5A or the effect display devices 5X and 5Y. The finalized effect symbol is derived and displayed (the display result of the variable effect symbol display is “big hit”). As an example, the same effect symbol (for example, “7” for probability variable big hit, non-probable big hit, on the predetermined effective line in the “left”, “middle”, “right” effect symbol display areas 5L, 5C, 5R) "6" etc.) are all displayed at the same time. In the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 23B, which will be described later, “non-probable change” includes non-probable big hit in which a promotion effect (failure) is executed during the big hit and non-probable big hit in which the promotion effect itself is not executed. There are two types of “probability change”: probability change big hit in which the promotion effect (success) is executed during the big hit and probability change big hit in which the promotion effect itself is not executed. The promotion effect is a probability change promotion effect, which is executed in a predetermined round (for example, 7 rounds) during the big hit, and is an effect that displays whether the promotion to the probability change big hit has succeeded or failed. When the jackpot type is “non-probable change (promotion effect failed)”, the same effect symbols “6” are all stopped and displayed, and the promising change promotion effect (failure) is executed in 7 rounds during the big hit. When the jackpot type is “probable change (successful promotion effect)”, the same effect symbols “6” are all stopped and displayed, and the probable change promotion effect (success) is executed in seven rounds during the big hit. Note that the probable promotion effect may be executed for rounds other than 7 rounds or a plurality of rounds, fanfare effect, ending effect, or the like. Further, the promotion effect may be a round promotion effect that notifies the continuation of the round.

  When the variable display result is “losing”, the variable display mode of the effect symbol is not the reach mode, and the determined effect symbol of the non-reach combination is stopped and displayed as the display result of the variable display of the effect symbol. In addition, after the variable display mode of the effect symbol becomes the reach mode, the determined effect symbol of a predetermined reach combination (reach lose combination) that is not a jackpot combination may be stopped and displayed as a display result of the variable display of the effect symbol.

  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 gaming 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 chew support is performed in which the winning frequency of the normal symbol is increased and the winning frequency to the normally variable winning ball apparatus 6B is increased. For this reason, the state in which the time reduction control is performed (time reduction state) is a gaming state that is more advantageous to the player than the normal state. 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 probable big hit combination (also called “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 gaming 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. For this reason, the state in which the probability variation control is performed (the probability variation state) is a gaming state that is more advantageous for the player than 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.

  The normal state is a gaming state other than the advantageous state for the player, such as a big hit gaming state, a short-time state, or a probable change state. The probability of “winning” and the probability that the variable display result in the special game is “big hit” is an initial setting state of the pachinko gaming machine 1 (for example, when a system reset is performed, a predetermined return process after power-on) Is controlled in the same manner as when (1) is not executed.

  The time-short state is also referred to as “high base”, the gaming state that is not the time-short state is also referred to as “low base” and “non-time-short state”, and the probability variation state is also referred to as “high probability”. A gaming state that is not in a probable change state is also referred to as “low probability” or “non-probability change”. The gaming state when the probability change state and the short time state are also referred to as a “high probability high base”. The gaming state when it is in a probable change state but not in a short time state is also referred to as a “high probability low base”. A gaming state that is not in a probable change state but in a short time state is also referred to as a “low probability high base”. The normal state is also called “low probability low base”.

  Next, main operations of the pachinko gaming machine 1 in the present embodiment will be described with reference to flowcharts and the like. In each operation (each process), a process that does not appear in the flowchart may be performed.

(Main operations of the main board 11)
On the main board 11, the CPU 103 executes a game control timer interrupt process. Game control timer interrupt processing is performed every time a timer interrupt is generated by an interrupt request signal from a CTC (counter / timer circuit) supplied every predetermined period (for example, 2 milliseconds), that is, at an interrupt request signal supply interval. It is executed every certain time (2 ms). In the game control timer interrupt process, the CPU 103 executes a switch process, a game random number update process, a special symbol process, a normal symbol process process, a command control process, etc., and the game control timer interrupt process is repeatedly executed for each timer interrupt. As a result, game control and the like are realized.

  In the switch processing, each switch is determined by determining whether a detection signal is input from various switches such as the gate switch 21, the first start port switch 22A, the second start port switch 22B, and the count switch 23 via the switch circuit 110. It is determined for each switch whether or not it is turned on (that is, whether or not a game ball has entered or passed). The result of this determination is used in special symbol process processing and normal symbol process processing.

  The game random number update process is a process for updating at least a part of a plurality of types of game random numbers used on the main board 11 side by software. The special symbol process is a process for realizing the holding or execution of a special figure game, a big hit game state, or the like based on the determination result in the switch process. The normal symbol process is based on the judgment result in the switch process, and holds and executes the ordinary game, and the normal variable winning ball device 6B (second starting prize opening) is released at the time of each ordinary figure. It is a process to do. The command control process is a process of actually transmitting the effect control command transmitted and set in the special symbol process process or the like from the main board 11 to the effect control board 12.

(Direction control command set for transmission in special symbol process)
Next, an effect control command that is set to be transmitted in the special symbol process and transmitted from the main board 11 to the effect control board 12 in the command control process will be described. FIG. 23A shows examples of main effect control commands. The following “(H)” indicates a hexadecimal number.

  Fluctuation pattern designation command 81XX (H), display result designation command 8CXX (H), symbol confirmation designation command 8F00 (H), hit start designation command A0XX (H), hit end designation command A3XX (H), first start winning designation A command B100 (H), a second start winning designation command B200 (H), and a big prize opening prize designation command B300 (H) are prepared in advance. “XX” is EXT data. A numerical value corresponding to the variable display result is set in “XX” of the display result designation command 8CXX (H) (for example, as shown in FIG. "01" for "big hit", "02" for "non-probable big hit (promotion promotion failure)", "03" for "probable big hit", "04" for "probable big hit (successful promotion effect)").

(Special symbol process)
FIG. 24 is a flowchart showing an example of the special symbol process. Each flag, each counter, and each timer described below are provided in the RAM 102. In the special symbol process, the CPU 103 executes a start winning determination process (S101). For example, the CPU 103 determines whether the first start port switch 22A is on (whether it has been determined to be on by the switch process or the other switches). If it is ON, it is determined whether the first special figure reserved memory number has reached the upper limit number (for example, 4), and if it has not reached the upper limit number, it is determined that the first start winning has occurred and the random number circuit 104 or random number values for game random number update processing, random number value MR1 for determining special figure display result (variable display result of special game), random number value MR2 for determining jackpot type, variation pattern determination Random number MR3 is extracted, and the extracted numerical value is held in the first special figure reservation storage unit of the RAM 102 as first reservation data. It is determined whether the second start port switch 22B is on. If it is ON, it is determined whether the second special figure reserved memory number has reached the upper limit number (for example, 4). If the upper limit number is not reached, it is determined that the second start winning has occurred, Similarly, random number values MR1 to MR3 are extracted, and the extracted numerical values are held in the second special figure reservation storage unit of the RAM 102 as second reservation data. The first hold data and the second hold data are held in the order of winning a prize. The number of the first special figure reserved memory and the number of the second special figure reserved memory may be specified by the number of the first reserved data and the second reserved data, and the counter for counting each stored number (the same applies hereinafter). In the start winning determination process, when there is a first start win, transmission setting of a first start win designation command and an addition designation command for the first special figure reserved memory number is performed, and when there is a second start win The transmission setting of the second start winning designation command and the second special figure reservation storage number addition designation command is performed.

  After executing S101, the CPU 103 selects and executes one of the processes of S110 to S117 according to the value of the special figure process flag. The following time reduction flag is a flag that is turned on in the time reduction state, and the probability variation flag is a flag that is turned on in the probability variation state.

  The special symbol normal process of S110 is executed when the value of the special symbol process flag is “0”. For example, when the second special figure holding storage number is not “0”, the CPU 103 performs a process for executing the second special figure game, updates the value of the special figure process flag to “1”, and performs this process. finish. When the second special figure holding memory number is “0” and the first special figure holding memory number is not “0”, a process for executing the first special figure game is performed, and the value of the special figure process flag is set to “1”. The process is terminated. When both are “0”, this processing is terminated.

  In the process for executing the second special figure game, the oldest second reserved data among the second reserved data (random numbers MR1 to MR3) held in the second special figure reservation storage unit is stored as the second special figure hold. Read from the storage unit to a predetermined buffer of the RAM 102. The read second hold data is deleted from the second special figure hold storage unit. The second special chart to be executed this time based on the random number MR1 and the jackpot determination table (stored in the ROM 101. The same applies to the determination table hereinafter) of the second reserved data read to the predetermined buffer. The game variable display result ("big hit" or "losing") is determined. The determination ratio of “big hit” is higher in the probability variation state (when the probability variation flag is on) than in the non-probability variation state (when the probability variation flag is off). When it is determined as “big hit”, the big hit type (“probable change” or “non-probable change”) is determined based on the random value MR2 and the big hit type determination table. In the embodiment, any one of “non-probability change”, “non-probability change (promotion effect failure)”, “probability change”, and “probability change (promotion effect success)” is determined. The determination result and the information to execute the second special figure game are held in the RAM 102 and are referred to as appropriate (the same applies to other determinations).

  Also in the process for executing the first special figure game, the same process as that for executing the second special figure game is performed, the first reserved data is read out to a predetermined buffer, and the first special figure game is variable. The display result is determined (including determination of jackpot type).

  The variation pattern setting process of S111 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is “1”. For example, the CPU 103 determines (selects) the variation pattern and sets the execution start of the first special figure game or the second special figure game. The variation pattern designates a variable display execution time (special drawing variation time) and a variable display pattern of the effect symbol.

  In the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 25, there are PA1-1, PA2-1, PA3-2 to PA3-4 as the variation patterns at the time of loss. As the big hit hour fluctuation pattern, there are B3-2 to PB3-4. PA1-1 and PA2-1 specify non-reach. PA2-1 is a pattern for time reduction (with shortening) in which the special figure variation time (execution period of the special figure game) is shorter than normal (PA1-1). PA3-2 and PB3-2 designate execution of normal reach (no development to super reach), PA3-3 and PB3-3 designate execution of super reach A (develop from normal reach), and PA3 -4 and PB3-4 designate execution of super reach B (development from normal reach).

  When the variable display result of this time is “big hit”, the CPU 103 sets PB 3-2 to PB 3-2-2 based on the random number MR 3 of the first and second reserved data read into the predetermined buffer and the big pattern change pattern determination table. One of PB3-4 is determined as the current variation pattern. When the variable display result is “losing” and in a non-short-time state (when the time-short flag is off), PA 1-1, PA 3 are based on the random number MR 3 and the variation pattern determination table for the first loss. Any one of −2 to PA3-4 is determined as the current variation pattern. When the variable display result is “losing” and in the time-short state (when the time-shorting flag is on), based on the random number MR3 and the variation pattern determination table for the second loss, PA2-1, PA3- Any one of 2 to PA3-4 is determined as the current variation pattern. The determination ratio of the variation pattern is higher in the order of PA1-1 or PA2-1> PA3-2> PA3-3> PA3-4 when lost. The big hit is higher in the order of PB3-4> PB3-3> PB3-2. For this reason, the big hit expectation degree is high in the order of super reach B> super reach A> normal reach.

  After determining the variation pattern, for example, the drive signal is supplied to the first special symbol display 4A or the second special symbol display 4B, and the execution of the first special symbol game or the second special symbol game is started. Display result designation command, subtraction designation command for first or second special figure reserved memory number, variation pattern designation command for designating the above determination result or the current gaming state (which can be specified by the state of the probability variation flag or the short time flag) Is set, the special process flag value is set to “2”, and the process is terminated.

  The special symbol variation process of S112 is executed when the value of the special symbol process flag is “2”. For example, the CPU 103 has elapsed time since the start of the special figure game (measured by a timer or the like. The same applies to other elapsed times) has reached the special figure fluctuation time corresponding to the current fluctuation pattern. (The timing for deriving the variable display result) is determined, and if not reached, the drive signal for executing the first special symbol game or the second special symbol game is sent to the first special symbol display 4A or the second special symbol. This process is terminated after the process of supplying the display 4B and changing the special symbol is performed. On the other hand, when the special symbol variation time is reached, a predetermined drive signal is supplied to the first special symbol display 4A or the second special symbol display 4B, and the symbol of the current variable display result (in the case of “losing”, “ -"," 7 "for" probable big hit "," 3 "for" non-probable big hit ", etc., stop display (derived display), set symbol designating command transmission setting, and special figure process flag The value of is updated to “3”. By executing S112 repeatedly every time a timer interrupt occurs, the execution of the special game is realized.

  The special symbol stop process of S113 is executed when the value of the special symbol process flag is “3”. For example, when the current variable display result is “big hit”, the CPU 103 resets the time reduction flag and the probability variation flag to OFF. After that, transmission setting of the hit start designation command is performed, the special figure process flag is updated to “4”, and this processing is terminated. In the case of “shortage” in the time-short state, it is determined whether a predetermined number of variable displays that can be executed in the time-short state has been executed (for example, it can be counted by a counter or the like), and a predetermined number of variable displays are executed. If there is, the time reduction flag is reset to OFF, the value of the special figure process flag is set to “0”, and the process is terminated. Even in the case of “losing” and not being in a short time state, when the predetermined number of variable displays has not been executed, the process is terminated by setting the value of the special figure process flag to “0”.

  The big hit release pre-processing of S114 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is “4”. For example, it is determined whether the elapsed time since the transmission setting of the hit start designation command has reached a preset fanfare waiting time (waiting time from the start of fanfare in the big hit gaming state to the end), If not, the jackpot release pre-processing is terminated. When the fanfare waiting time is reached, the special prize process flag is updated to “5” by performing a process (opening of a solenoid drive signal) for opening the big prize opening in order to start a round game. By repeating S114 every time a timer interrupt occurs, waiting until the start timing of the round game (waiting until the end of the fanfare), opening of the big prize opening, and the like are realized.

  The big hit release processing of S115 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is “5”. For example, the CPU 103 determines whether it is time to end the round game. The number of times the count switch 23 is turned on (the number of game balls that have entered the big winning opening) reaches a predetermined value (for example, “9”) (it may be counted by a counter or the like), or after the round game is started ( When the elapsed time of the grand prize opening has reached the upper limit period (for example, 29 seconds) of the round game and it is time to end the round game, the grand prize opening is returned to the closed state. A process of ending the round game (a process of turning off the solenoid 82) is performed. At this time, when the finished round game is the last round game (for example, the 15th round) (it may be counted with a counter or the like), a setting to send a hit end designation command is performed, and the special process flag is set. The value is updated to “7”, and this process ends. When it is not the last round game, the special figure process flag is updated to “6”, and this process is terminated. If the current time is not the timing for ending the round game, the processing is terminated as it is (the processing for maintaining the big prize opening in an open state may be performed). By repeating S115 every time a timer interrupt occurs, the open state of the big prize opening is maintained until the timing for returning the big prize opening to the closed state, and finally the big prize opening is closed.

  The big hit release post-processing in S116 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is “6”. For example, the CPU 103 determines whether or not the elapsed time from the end of the round game (after closing the big prize opening) has reached a predetermined closing time (round game interval period). In this case, the closed state is maintained, and the present process ends. When the predetermined closing time is reached, in order to start the round game, a process for opening the special winning opening is executed, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to “5”, and this process is terminated.

  Each round game is realized by repeatedly executing S115 and S116 each time a timer interrupt occurs after the big winning opening is opened in S114.

  The jackpot end process of S117 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is “7”. For example, the elapsed time from the end of the last round game (after closing the big prize opening) to a predetermined ending waiting time (waiting time from the start to the end of the ending in the big hit gaming state) If it has not been reached, this process is terminated. When the ending waiting time is reached, the ending ends, so when the big hit type is “probable change”, turn on the hourly flag and the probability change flag. Leave the flag off. Then, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to “0”, and this process ends.

(Operation of production control board 12)
FIG. 26A is a flowchart showing the effect control main process executed by the effect control CPU 120 of the effect control board 12. The effect control CPU 120 starts executing the main process when the power is turned on. In the main processing, initialization processing is performed for clearing the RAM area, setting various initial values, and initializing a timer for determining the activation control activation interval (for example, 2 ms) (S51).

  After S51, a movable body initialization process at power-on is performed (S51A). In the movable body initialization process (S51A) when the power is turned on, the initial operation of the movable bodies (first movable body 300, second movable body 400, third movable bodies 500L, 500R) based on the supply of power is executed. The The initial operation includes a short initial operation and a long initial operation. In the short initial operation, the movable bodies (the first movable body 300, the second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R, the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R) are returned to the initial positions (the origin position, the standby position, etc.). This is the initial operation. In the long initial operation, the movable bodies (the first movable body 300, the second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R, the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R) are returned to the initial positions (the origin position, the standby position, etc.). After confirming the operation (the advanced position advanced between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260 (for example, in the case of the first movable body 300, the advanced position shown in FIGS. 17 and 18 and FIG. 33 described later). In the first modification, the first operation P1 and the second position P2) are moved to the initial position and then returned to the initial position). In the pachinko gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment, for example, it is set to execute a long initial operation. It may be set to execute a short initial operation.

  In the movable body initialization process (S51A) when the power is turned on, the effect control CPU 120 performs the initial of the movable body even if the open / close frame 50 is opened immediately before the initial operation of the movable body or during the initial operation. The operation is executed without being stopped. Specifically, the effect control CPU 120 may turn on a door opening detection switch (for example, a door sensor) (not shown) that can detect the opening of the opening / closing frame 50 during or immediately before the execution of the processing of S51A. Each of the movable bodies (first movable body 300, second movable body 400, third movable bodies 500L, 500R, and fourth movable bodies 600L, 600R) can be executed without being stopped. Drive mechanism (first to fourth drive mechanisms 310, 320, 330, and 340 for the first movable body 300, fifth drive mechanism 410 for the second movable body 400, and sixth drive for the third movable bodies 500L and 500R. The seventh drive mechanisms 610L and 610R) for the mechanisms 510L and 510R and the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R are controlled.

  According to this, even if the opening / closing frame 50 is opened during the initial operation of the movable body when the power is turned on, the initial operation of the movable body is not stopped. The operation of the movable body can be confirmed. For example, it is possible to smoothly check the operation of the movable body at the time of factory inspection before the gaming machine is shipped. Moreover, the opening / closing operation confirmation of the opening / closing frame 50 and the initial operation of the movable body when the power is turned on can be performed at the same time, and the inspection efficiency can be improved. Since the operation of the movable body has been confirmed as described above, the movable body can be suitably controlled.

  After S51A, the process proceeds to a loop process for monitoring the timer interrupt flag (S52). When a timer interrupt occurs, the timer interrupt flag is set in the timer interrupt process. If the timer interrupt flag is set (turned on) in the main process, the flag is cleared (S53), and the following process is executed.

  The effect control CPU 120 analyzes the received effect control command and performs a process of setting a flag according to the received effect control command (command analysis process: S54). In this command analysis process, the effect control CPU 120 confirms the content of the command transmitted from the main board 11 stored in the reception command buffer. The effect control command transmitted from the game control microcomputer 100 is received by an interrupt process based on the effect control INT signal, and is stored in a buffer area formed in the RAM. In the command analysis processing, which command (see FIG. 3) is the presentation control command stored in the buffer area, settings and control corresponding to the analysis result are performed.

  Next, the effect control CPU 120 performs effect control process processing (S55). In the effect control process, a process corresponding to the current control state (effect control process flag) is selected from the processes corresponding to the control state, and display and operation control of the effect display devices 5A, 5X, and 5Y are executed. . Next, the effect control CPU 120 executes effect random number update processing for updating the count value of the counter for generating effect random numbers such as jackpot symbol determination random numbers (S56).

  Next, when an abnormality or an error has occurred, the effect control CPU 120 executes a notification control process for executing notification of abnormality, etc. (S57), and then proceeds to S52. As shown in FIG. 26B, in the notification control process, for example, it is determined whether or not a door opening detection switch (not shown) that can detect the opening of the opening and closing frame 50 is ON (S61). For example, a door open detection switch (not shown) for detecting the opening of the opening / closing frame 50 is connected to the main board 11. The door opening detection switch is turned on when the opening / closing frame 50 is opened and turned off when the opening / closing frame 50 is closed. The door opening detection switch may be turned on when the opening / closing frame 50 is closed and turned off when the opening / closing frame 50 is opened. In this case, what is necessary is just to determine whether the door open detection switch is OFF about S61. Based on the detection of opening of the opening / closing frame 50 by the door opening detection switch, the main board 11 transmits a door opening designation command indicating that the opening / closing frame 50 has been opened to the effect control board 12. For this reason, when the door opening designation command is received from the main board 11, it can be determined that the door opening detection switch is on.

  If the door opening detection switch is on (S61; Yes), it is determined whether or not the first movable body 300 is operating (S62). For example, if the first movable body 300 is at the origin position, it is determined that it is not in operation, and if it is not at the origin position, it is determined that it is in operation. Note that the determination method during operation is not limited to this. For example, it may be determined that the first movable body 300 is in operation if the first movable body 300 is in the advanced position (in the case where there are a plurality of advanced positions, each advanced position). Further, when at least one of the first drive mechanism 310, the second drive mechanism 320, the third drive mechanism 330, and the fourth drive mechanism 340 (see FIG. 2) is in the drive operation, it is determined that the operation is in progress. May be. If the first movable body 300 is operating (S62; Yes), a door opening notification (first opening notification) at the time of the movable body operation is executed (S63). On the other hand, if the first movable body 300 is not in operation (S62; No), a normal door opening notification (second opening notification) is executed (S65). The door opening notification during the operation of the movable body is different from the normal door opening notification. For example, the door opening notification during the operation of the movable body is configured such that the notification sound is louder than the normal door opening notification or the notification image and the notification light emission are conspicuous. In addition, the door opening notification during the operation of the movable body is a notification that the movable body is in operation (for example, a notification image such as “the movable body is in operation!” Or “careful about the moving body in operation!”) The content may be output as a voice), and the door opening notification at normal time may not be so.

  Thus, if it is 1st open | release alert | report, it can alert | report that it is open | release of the opening-and-closing frame 50 during operation | movement of the 1st movable body 300, and it will open | release the opening-and-closing frame 50 in consideration of the 1st movable body 300 in operation | movement. Can be dealt with. Further, when the second opening notification is made, it can be notified that the opening / closing frame 50 is open when the first movable body 300 is not operating, and the opening / closing frame 50 is dealt with without worrying about the first movable body 300. can do. For this reason, when the opening notification of the opening / closing frame 50 is made, it is possible to execute an appropriate treatment according to the presence or absence of the operation of the first movable body 300. In addition, it is good also as the same alerting | reporting, without distinguishing the door open alert | report at the time of movable body operation | movement, and the door open alert | report at the time of normal.

  After S63, the operation of the first movable body 300 is restricted (S64). For example, the operation of the first movable body 300 is stopped. In S64, the effect control CPU 120 operates the first movable body 300 (for example, the first movable body 300 moves to the advanced position shown in FIGS. 17 and 18 or the second position of Modification 1 shown in FIG. 33 described later). The opening / closing frame 50 is opened (the door opening detection switch) during execution of the advancing operation toward P2, or during execution of the backward movement from the origin position shown in FIG. 16 or the second position P2 toward the first position P1, etc. (Not shown) is turned on), the process of stopping the operation of the first movable body 300 is executed. For this reason, when the opening / closing frame 50 is opened, the first movable body 300 malfunctions due to the above-described operations (for example, the first movable body 300 is advanced or retracted) (for example, the first movable body 300 is caught). In addition, it is possible to prevent the first movable body 300 itself and its related parts or door member side parts (such as the first movable body 300 and the second transmission body 260 from being damaged). Thereby, the malfunction by the 1st movable body 300 at the time of the opening-and-closing frame 50 being open | released can be prevented. As shown in FIG. 26B, S64 is executed after S63, but S63 may be executed after S64. In this case, the movable body operation restriction can be executed quickly.

  Further, it is possible to stop the operation of the movable body based on the establishment of a specific condition including at least the opening / closing frame 50 being opened, and the movable body based on the reception of the movable body operation command (establishment of the predetermined condition). (For example, the first movable body 300 controls the advance position shown in FIGS. 17 and 18 and the advance action toward the second position P2 of Modification 1 shown in FIG. 33 described later, or the origin shown in FIG. Control of the movable body based on the establishment of a specific condition including at least that the opening / closing frame 50 is opened (for example, control of the backward movement from the second position P2 to the first position P1 or the like). Control of stopping the movable body 300 or the like) can be performed with priority given to control of the movable body. Therefore, the movable body operates when the open / close frame 50 is opened, the movable body operates after the open / close frame 50 is opened, and the open / close frame 50 is opened after the movable body is operated. (For example, pinching by the first movable body 300, the first movable body 300 itself, its related parts, or the door member side parts (the first movable body 300, the second transmission body 260, etc.)) Damage). Thereby, the malfunction by the movable body at the time of a door member being opened can be prevented. The specific condition includes at least the opening / closing frame 50 being opened (detection of opening of the opening / closing frame 50, occurrence of an opening error of the opening / closing frame 50, etc.), but is not limited thereto. Absent. The specific condition includes, for example, at least one of a vibration motor abnormality error, an accessory initial activation error, a magnet error (magnetism detection error), a vibration detection abnormality, an illegal winning error, a RAM clear, an opening / closing frame 50 opening, and the like. It may be a thing. Further, the predetermined condition is not limited to the reception of the movable body operation command. For example, conditions that trigger the operation such as execution setting of the movable body effect, execution timing of the movable body effect, reception of an initial operation command, reception of a customer waiting demonstration designation command may be used.

  In S64, the effect control CPU 120 stops the operation of the first movable body 300 when the opening / closing frame 50 is opened during the operation of the first movable body 300. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the effect control CPU 120, in S64, the opening / closing frame 50 while at least one of the first movable body 300, the second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R is operating. When is opened, the operation of all these movable bodies may be stopped, or the operation of only the movable body in operation may be stopped.

  When the opening / closing frame 50 is opened, the effect control CPU 120 stops the operation for the target movable body and continues the operation for the non-target movable body (specific movable body) (or the initial position, etc.) in S64. (You may return to). For example, the target movable body is the first movable body 300 that advances between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260, and the non-target movable body (specific movable body) is the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body. The second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R that do not advance between the transmissive bodies 260 may be used. According to this configuration, when the opening / closing frame 50 is opened during the operation of the movable body, the operation of the target movable body (first movable body 300) is stopped, but the specific movable body (second movable body 400, third Even if the opening / closing frame 50 is opened during the operation of the movable bodies 500L, 500R and the fourth movable bodies 600L, 600R), the specific movable body is located between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260. Since the movable body does not perform the operation, the specific movable body can be continued without stopping the operation (or can be returned to the initial position or the like). Thereby, control according to a movable body can be performed. That is, control according to the type of movable body (whether it is a movable body or a specific movable body) can be performed.

  In addition, the production control CPU 120 stops the operation of the first movable body 300 in S64, but the content of the operation may be limited. For example, the second operation (protruding) of the first movable body 300 is prohibited (stopped), but the first operation (non-protruding) may be continued (executed). In addition, the range, speed, acceleration, and the like of the operation may be a limited range, a different speed (slow speed), a different acceleration (small acceleration), or the like compared to the operation when the opening / closing frame 50 is not opened.

  As an example of restricting the operation of the first movable body 300 (S64), control for moving the first movable body 300 to the initial position (standby position) may be performed. According to this, for example, when the first control or the second control is executed in the movable body effect, an operation abnormality of the first movable body 300 occurs, and the first movable body 300 is moved to the first effect position or the like. Even when it is necessary to perform maintenance by opening the opening / closing frame 50, such as when the movement of the opening / closing frame 50 is stopped due to the movement of the game or the ball is clogged in the game area 10, the first time when the opening / closing frame 50 is opened. Since the movable body 300 is retracted toward a position where the movable body 300 does not contact the rear transmission plate 261 (for example, a standby position), the rear transmission plate 261 and the first movable body 300 can be prevented from being damaged.

  On the other hand, after S65, the operation of the movable body is prohibited (S66). For example, in S66, the effect control CPU 120 prohibits the operation of the first movable body 300 (for example, the first operation ACT1, the second operation ACT2, etc.). Although S66 is executed after S65 as shown in FIG. 26B, S65 may be executed after S66. In this case, the movable body operation prohibition can be executed quickly.

  In S <b> 66, for example, the effect control CPU 120 may prohibit the operation of all movable bodies (all of the target movable body and the non-target movable body). In S66, the operation of only the target movable body (first movable body 300) is prohibited, and the non-target movable bodies (second movable body 400, third movable bodies 500L, 500R, fourth movable bodies 600L, 600R, etc.) are prohibited. The operation may be permitted without being prohibited. That is, even when the open / close frame 50 is opened, the non-target movable body may be operated during the operation period. In S66, the content of the operation may be limited. For example, the second operation (protrusion) of the first movable body 300 is prohibited (stopped), but the first operation (non-protrusion) may be continued (executed).

  Further, for example, regarding the prohibition of operation of the movable body (S66), the effect control CPU 120 immediately cancels the prohibition of the operation and enables the operation of the movable body when the open / close frame 50 is closed. It should be noted that the prohibition may be canceled and the movable body can be operated after a predetermined period has elapsed since the closing of the open / close frame 50 or when the variable display being executed has ended.

  On the other hand, when the door opening detection switch is not on (S61; No), the process ends after S64 or after S66.

<Notification Control Processing of Another Example (S57)>
As shown in FIG. 27A, in the notification control process (S57) of Example 1, the initial operation (for example, the short initial operation) of the movable body is executed when the opening / closing frame 50 is closed (S60A). Also good. In the notification control process (S57) of another example 1 shown in FIG. 27A, the effect control CPU 120 determines, for example, whether or not the door closing flag is on (S60). The door closing flag is a flag indicating that the open / close frame 50 that has been in the open state has been closed. If the door closing flag is not on (S60; No), it is determined whether or not the door opening detection switch is on (S61). Since S61 to S66 are the same as those in FIG. 26B described above, description thereof is omitted here. After S64 or after S66, a door opening flag indicating that the opening / closing frame 50 has been opened is set to ON (S67). That is, since the door opening detection switch is turned on by opening the opening / closing frame 50 (S61; Yes), the door opening flag is set to ON (S67).

  On the other hand, if the door open detection switch is not on (S61; No), that is, if the open / close frame 50 is closed, it is determined whether the door open flag is on (S61A). If the door opening flag is on (S61A; Yes), the door opening flag is reset to off (S61B), and the door closing flag is set to on (S61C). That is, the door closing flag indicating that the open / close frame 50 that has been in the open state is in the closed state is set to ON.

  On the other hand, if the door closing flag is ON (S60; Yes), an initial operation (for example, a short initial operation) of the movable body is performed when the opening / closing frame 50 is closed (S60A). In S60A, the effect control CPU 120 executes the short initial operation of the first movable body 300 when the opening / closing frame 50 is closed. After S60A, the door closing flag is reset to OFF (S60B). On the other hand, when the door opening flag is not on (S61A; No), the process ends after S61C, after S67, or after S60B. Thereby, the first movable body 300 can be reliably returned to the initial position when the open / close frame 50 is closed. For this reason, the 1st movable body 300 can be operated from an initial position, and the 1st movable body 300 can be controlled suitably.

  The effect control CPU 120 may not execute the short initial operation when the first movable body 300 is in the initial position when the opening / closing frame 50 is closed. In this way, it is not necessary to perform an unnecessary short initial operation on the first movable body 300 already in the initial position. For this reason, the short initial operation can be executed only for the first movable body 300 that is not in the initial position, and an appropriate initial operation can be executed.

  The initial operation (S60A) of the movable body when the opening / closing frame 50 is closed may be, for example, a long initial operation.

  In S60A, the production control CPU 120 is not limited to the first movable body 300, but includes all movable bodies (the first movable body 300, the second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth movable body 600L. , 600R), an initial operation (which may be either a short initial operation or a long initial operation) may be performed. Furthermore, in S60A, the initial operation may not be performed for the movable body at the initial position among all the movable bodies. Further, the effect control CPU 120, in S60A, protrudes between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 (first movable body 300) and the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260. All of the non-projecting objects (second movable body 400, third movable body 500L, 500R, fourth movable body 600L, 600R) that do not advance between are returned to their initial positions. One of the non-protruding objects may be returned to the initial position. In S60A, the effect control CPU 120 performs initial operations on all movable bodies (first movable body 300, second movable body 400, third movable bodies 500L, 500R, fourth movable bodies 600L, 600R) in a predetermined manner. You may make it carry out in order (the order set for initial operations, the same order as the time of a movable body effect, etc.). By performing the initial operation in a predetermined order, an appropriate initial operation can be performed. Moreover, you may set a priority to the initial operation | movement of each movable body. As a priority order of the initial operation, for example, the protruding combination (first movable body 300) is set to be more than the non-projecting combination (second movable body 400, third movable body 500L, 500R, fourth movable body 600L, 600R). It may be executed with priority, or vice versa.

<Notification Control Processing of Another Example (S57)>
As shown in FIG. 27 (B), in the notification control process (S57) of another example 2, the detection result of the first movable body 300 whose operation has been stopped by opening the opening / closing frame 50 is detected. (S64A, S64B). The detection means may be at least one of a door opening detection switch (not shown), a push button 31B, and an operation button (not shown) dedicated to a person who can be operated by a person related to the game hall other than the player. . For example, an operation button (not shown) dedicated to a person concerned can be operated by only a person concerned with a game hall by, for example, a button exposed when the opening / closing frame 50 is opened. Here, it is assumed that the detection means is an operation button dedicated to the related person. Since S61 to S66 in the notification control process of the second example are the same as those in FIG. 26B described above, description thereof is omitted here. After S64, the effect control CPU 120 determines, for example, whether or not there is an operation of an operation button dedicated to a person concerned (S64A). The effect control CPU 120 operates the first movable body 300 whose operation is stopped by opening the opening / closing frame 50 (S64B) when there is an operation of an operation button dedicated to a person concerned (S64A; Yes). The first movable body 300 may be operated during a period in which the operation button dedicated to the related party is operated, or the first movable body 300 may be operated when the operation button dedicated to the related party is operated once. It may be. On the other hand, if there is no operation of the operation button dedicated to the person concerned (S64A; No), this process is ended as it is. Accordingly, the first movable body 300 is operated after confirming safety (for example, the stopped first movable body 300 is returned to the initial position, moved to the first position (for example, stored), etc.) (E.g., move to two positions). The movable body is not limited to the first movable body 300, and all movable bodies whose operations are stopped by opening the opening / closing frame 50 (the first movable body 300, the second movable body 400, The third movable bodies 500L and 500R and the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R) may be individually operated, or all of them may be simultaneously operated. In S64A, the presence / absence of operation of the operation button dedicated to the related party is determined. However, the presence / absence of the operation of the game hall related party may be determined by an infrared sensor or the like that detects the operation of the game hall related party. When the operation of the game hall related person is detected, the first movable body 300 whose operation is stopped by opening the opening / closing frame 50 may be operated (S64B).

<Notification Control Processing of Another Example (S57)>
As shown in FIG. 28A, in the notification control process (S57) of another example 3, the operation restriction (S65C) of the movable body and the movable body are determined based on whether or not the variation pattern has a movable body effect. The operation may be prohibited (65D). In the notification control process of another example 3, as shown in FIG. 28A, the effect control CPU 120 determines, for example, whether or not a door open detection switch (not shown) is on (S61). If the door opening detection switch is on (S61; Yes), a door opening notification (second opening notification) is executed (S65). After S65, it is determined whether or not the variation pattern has a movable body effect (S65A). In S505 of the movable body effect setting process shown in FIG. 30A to be described later, when a movable body effect pattern is set, it is determined that the variation pattern has a movable body effect (S65A; Yes). If not, it is determined that the variation pattern has no movable body effect (S65A; No). If the variation pattern has a movable body effect (S65A; Yes), it is determined whether or not the first movable body 300 is operating (S65B). For example, if the first movable body 300 is at the origin position, it is determined that it is not in operation, and if it is not at the origin position, it is determined that it is in operation. If the first movable body 300 is operating (S65B; Yes), the operation of the first movable body 300 is limited (S65C). For example, the operation of the first movable body 300 is stopped. In S <b> 65 </ b> C, the effect control CPU 120 executes a process of stopping the above-described operation of the first movable body 300 (such as an advance operation and a reverse operation of the first movable body 300).

  In S65C, the production control CPU 120 stops the operation of the first movable body 300 when the opening / closing frame 50 is opened during the operation of the first movable body 300, but is not limited thereto. For example, the effect control CPU 120, in S65C, the open / close frame 50 while at least one of the first movable body 300, the second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R is operating. When is opened, the operation of all these movable bodies may be stopped, or the operation of only the movable body in operation may be stopped.

  In S65C, the production control CPU 120 may stop the operation for the target movable body and continue the operation for the non-target movable body (specific movable body) (or return it to the initial position or the like). . For example, the target movable body is the first movable body 300 that advances between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260, and the non-target movable body (specific movable body) is the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body. The second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R that do not advance between the transmissive bodies 260 may be used.

  In S65C, the production control CPU 120 stops the operation of the first movable body 300, but the content of the operation may be limited. For example, the second operation (protruding) of the first movable body 300 is prohibited (stopped), but the first operation (non-protruding) may be continued (executed). In addition, the range, speed, acceleration, and the like of the operation may be a limited range, a different speed (slow speed), a different acceleration (small acceleration), or the like compared to the operation when the opening / closing frame 50 is not opened.

  On the other hand, if the first movable body 300 is not operating (S65B; No), the operation of the movable body is prohibited (S65D). For example, in S65D, the effect control CPU 120 prohibits the operation of the first movable body 300 (for example, the first operation ACT1, the second operation ACT2, etc.). In other words, from the end of the movable body operation during the period from the start of variable display (start of the variation display of the production symbol) to the start (execution) of the movable body effect by the movable body effect for the variation pattern having the movable body effect. The operation of the first movable body 300 is also prohibited during the period until the variable display is confirmed (the confirmed effect symbol (combination of three effect symbols) is stopped). According to this, when the open / close frame 50 is opened during the period from the start of variable display (start of variable display) to the start of the movable body operation, the movable body operation can be prevented from being executed in the first place. In addition, it is possible not to execute the movable body operation even during the period from the end of the movable body operation to the symbol determination. It is possible to prevent an unexpected movable body (particularly, an accessory due to energization) operation caused by command output or output of a movable body operation command due to noise. On the other hand, when the door opening flag is not on (S61; No), when the variation pattern does not have a movable body effect (S65A; No), after S65C or after S65D, the process ends.

  In S65D, for example, the effect control CPU 120 may prohibit the operation of all movable bodies (all target movable bodies and non-target movable bodies). In S65D, the operation of only the target movable body (first movable body 300) is prohibited, and the non-target movable bodies (second movable body 400, third movable bodies 500L, 500R, fourth movable bodies 600L, 600R, etc.) are prohibited. The operation may be permitted without being prohibited. That is, even when the open / close frame 50 is opened, the non-target movable body may be operated during the operation period. In S65D, the content of the operation may be limited. For example, the second operation (protrusion) of the first movable body 300 is prohibited (stopped), but the first operation (non-protrusion) may be continued (executed).

  In addition, for example, regarding the prohibition of operation of the movable body (S65D), the effect control CPU 120 immediately cancels the prohibition of the operation and enables the operation of the movable body when the opening / closing frame 50 is closed. It should be noted that the prohibition may be canceled and the movable body can be operated after a predetermined period has elapsed since the closing of the open / close frame 50 or when the variable display being executed has ended.

  According to the notification control process (see FIG. 28A) of the third example described above, since S65A is provided, the movable body by the opening / closing frame 50 only in the case of the variation pattern including the movable body operation effect (S65A; Yes). The operation stop determination process (S65C) and the operation prohibition determination process (S65D) are performed, and the stop determination process is not performed for other variation patterns, so that the processing efficiency can be improved.

<Notification Control Processing of Another Example (S57)>
As shown in FIG. 28 (B), in the notification control process (S57) of Example 4, the operation restriction (S65C) of the movable body and the operation of the movable body during the customer waiting demonstration based on the customer waiting demonstration designation command. It may be prohibited (65D). Since S61, S65C, and S65D are the same as those shown in FIG. 28A, description thereof is omitted here. In the notification control process of Example 4, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not a customer waiting demonstration designation command from the main board 11 has been received after S65 (S65E). The customer waiting demonstration designation command is, for example, a demonstration display (demonstration screen display) by displaying a predetermined effect image on the screen of the effect display devices 5A, 5X, and 5Y, and a demonstration effect for operating the movable body together with the demonstration screen display. This is an effect control command for designating. If the customer waiting demonstration designation command has been received (S65E; Yes), it is determined whether or not the first movable body 300 is in the demonstration operation (moving body demonstration operation) in the customer waiting demonstration effect (S65F). For example, if the first movable body 300 is at the origin position, it is determined that it is not in operation, and if it is not at the origin position, it is determined that it is in operation. If the first movable body 300 is in a demo operation (S65F; Yes), the operation of the first movable body 300 is limited (S65C). For example, the operation of the first movable body 300 is stopped. In S <b> 65 </ b> C, the effect control CPU 120 executes a process of stopping the above-described operation of the first movable body 300 (such as an advance operation and a reverse operation of the first movable body 300).

  On the other hand, if the first movable body 300 is not in the demonstration operation (S65F; No), the operation of the first movable body 300 is prohibited (S65F). For example, in S65F, the effect control CPU 120 prohibits the operation of the first movable body 300 (for example, the first operation ACT1, the second operation ACT2, etc.). That is, a period from the start of the demonstration screen display to the start (execution) of the demo operation of the first movable body 300, and a period from the end of the demonstration operation of the first movable body 300 to the end of the demonstration screen display. In addition, the operation of the first movable body 300 is prohibited. According to this, when the opening / closing frame 50 is opened during the period from the start of the demonstration screen display to the start of the demonstration operation of the first movable body 300, the movable body operation can be prevented from being executed in the first place. Further, the movable body operation may not be executed during the period from the end of the demonstration operation of the first movable body 300 to the end of the demonstration screen display. It is possible to prevent an unexpected movable body (particularly, an accessory due to energization) operation caused by command output or output of a movable body operation command due to noise. On the other hand, when the door opening flag is not on (S61; No), when the customer waiting demonstration designation command is not received (S65E; No), this processing ends after S65C or after S65D. Note that the movable body in the notification control process (S57) of another example 4 shown in FIG. 28B is not limited to the first movable body 300, but the first movable body 300 and the second movable body 400. The third movable bodies 500L and 500R and the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R may be at least one of them.

(Command analysis processing)
In the command analysis process, the reception command (the effect control command received by the effect control board 12) stored in the effect control command reception buffer is analyzed (for example, the MODE data is confirmed), and which effect control the received command is. Whether the command is specified or not is processed according to the specified effect control command.

  For example, the reception flag is set according to the specified effect control command or stored in each storage area. Each flag and each storage area are provided in the RAM 122. “Set” for a flag means that the flag is turned on. The state of each flag and the command stored in each storage area may be reset or deleted at an appropriate timing. When an addition designation command for the special figure hold memory number or a subtraction designation command for the special figure hold memory number is received, the hold display in the first hold memory display area 5D or the second hold memory display area 5U of the effect display device 5A is received accordingly. The number of images may be increased or decreased.

(Production control process)
The effect control CPU 120 performs start setting for starting execution of various effects in the effect control process (effect start setting), effect operation control for executing the effect that has been set to start, and the like. Each flag, each timer, each counter, and the like described below are provided in the RAM 122.

  The production start setting includes, for example, setting the production control pattern as a usage pattern in the RAM 122 and setting an initial value corresponding to the production control pattern set in the process timer. The timer value of the process timer is subtracted at a predetermined timing (at the start of the effect control process processing, at the time of effect operation control described later, etc.) every time a timer interrupt occurs after setting the initial value. The effect control pattern is a collection of data for executing various effects (including variable display of effect symbols), and is associated with a process timer determination value to be compared with the timer value of the process timer and the determination value. It is composed of process data including the produced production control execution data (display control data, audio control data, lighting control data, etc.) and an end code. Data constituting the effect control pattern is stored in the ROM 121.

  The effect operation control is a control for executing an effect based on the effect control pattern set in the effect start setting. Specifically, the display control command according to the display control data among the presentation control execution data corresponding to the process timer determination value that matches the current timer value of the process timer is transmitted to the display control unit 123 to display the presentation. Effects are displayed on the devices 5A, 5X, 5Y, driving control commands according to the drive control data are transmitted to the display device drive mechanism 900 to drive the effect display devices 5X, 5Y, or according to the audio control data. A sound signal is transmitted to the sound control board 13 to output sound from the speakers 8L and 8R, or an illumination signal according to the lighting control data is transmitted to the LED control board 14 to turn on / off the effect LED 9. And control to execute the production. Execution of various effects is realized by repeatedly performing the effect operation control every time the timer interruption occurs.

  FIG. 29A is a flowchart illustrating an example of the effect control process. In the effect control process, the effect control CPU 120 executes one of S170 to S175 according to the value of the effect process flag.

  Next, the processing of S170 to S175 will be described. The variable display start waiting process in S170 is a process executed when the value of the effect process flag is “0”. In the variable display start waiting process, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not a variation pattern designation command or the like from the main board 11 has been received. The determination may be made based on whether or not the command is stored in the variation pattern designation command storage area, for example. If the command has been received, the value of the effect process flag is updated to “1”, and this process ends. If the command has not been received, this process ends.

  The variable display start setting process of S171 is a process executed when the value of the effect process flag is “1”. In the variable display start setting process shown in FIG. 29B, the effect control CPU 120 first determines a final stop symbol or the like that becomes a finalized effect symbol as a variable display result of the effect symbol (S321). For example, the effect control CPU 120 performs the final stop based on the variable display contents such as the variation pattern indicated by the variation pattern designation command transmitted from the main board 11 and the variable display result indicated by the variable display result notification command. Determine the design. As an example, the variable display contents according to the combination of the fluctuation pattern and variable display result include “non-reach (loss)”, “reach (loss)”, “non-probability change (big hit)”, and “probability change (big hit)”. is there.

  When the variable display content is “non-reach (losing)”, the variable display state of the production symbol is not changed to the reach state, but the fixed production symbol of the non-reach combination is stopped and displayed, and the variable display result is “losing”. " When the variable display content is “reach (lost)”, after the variable display state of the effect symbol becomes the reach state, the fixed effect symbol of the reach lose combination is stopped and displayed, and the variable display result becomes “lost”. . When the variable display content is “non-probable change (big hit)”, the variable display result is “big hit”, and the gaming state after the end of the big hit gaming state is the short-time state. When the variable display content is “probable change (big hit)”, the variable display result is “big win”, and the gaming state after the big hit gaming state is changed to the probable state.

  When the variable display content is “non-reach (losing)”, the effect control CPU 120 uses the “left” and “right” effect symbol display areas 5L and 5R to display different (unmatched) effect symbols as the final stop symbols. To decide. The effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating random values for determining the left determined symbol updated by the random number circuit 124 or the effect random counter, and stores the left determined symbol determination table prepared and stored in the ROM 121 in advance. By referring to the determined effect symbol, the left determined effect symbol to be stopped and displayed in the “left” effect symbol display area 5L on the screen of the effect display device 5A is determined. Next, numerical data indicating a random number value for determining the right determined symbol updated by the random number circuit 124 or the effect random counter is extracted, and the right determined symbol determining table prepared in advance stored in the ROM 121 is referred to. For example, the right determined effect symbol to be stopped and displayed in the “right” effect symbol display area 5R on the screen of the effect display device 5A is determined. At this time, the symbol number of the right confirmed effect symbol may be determined so as to be different from the symbol number of the left confirmed effect symbol by setting in the right confirmed symbol determination table. Subsequently, the numerical data indicating the random number value for determining the medium fixed symbol updated by the random number circuit 124 or the production random counter is extracted, and the medium fixed symbol determination table prepared in advance stored in the ROM 121 is referred to. From the determined effect symbols, the medium determined effect symbol that is stopped and displayed in the “medium” effect symbol display area 5C on the screen of the effect display device 5A is determined.

  When the variable display content is “reach (losing)”, the CPU 120 for effect control uses the same (matching) effect symbols in the “left” and “right” effect symbol display areas 5L and 5R as the final stop symbols. To decide. The effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating random values for determining the left and right determined symbols updated by the random number circuit 124 or the effect random counter, and stores the left and right determined symbol determination table prepared in advance and stored in the ROM 121. By referencing, for example, an effect symbol with the same symbol number that is stopped and displayed in the “left” and “right” effect symbol display areas 5L and 5R on the screen of the effect display device 5A among the confirmed effect symbols. decide. Further, numerical data indicating a random number value for determining the medium fixed symbol updated by the random number circuit 124 or the production random counter is extracted, and a medium fixed symbol determination table stored in advance and prepared in the ROM 121 is referred to. Thus, among the confirmed effect symbols, the medium determined effect symbol that is stopped and displayed in the “medium” effect symbol display area 5C on the screen of the effect display device 5A is determined. For example, when the confirmed effect symbol becomes a jackpot combination, such as when the symbol number of the middle confirmed effect symbol becomes the same as the symbol number of the left confirmed effect symbol and the right confirmed effect symbol, an arbitrary value (for example, “ 1)) may be added to or subtracted from the symbol number of the medium finalized effect symbol, so that the finalized symbol is not a jackpot combination but a reach combination. Alternatively, when determining the medium finalized effect symbol, a difference (symbol difference) between the symbol number of the left finalized effect symbol and the right finalized effect symbol may be determined, and the medium finalized effect symbol corresponding to the symbol difference may be set. .

  When the variable display content is “non-probability change (big hit)” or “probability change (big hit)”, the effect control CPU 120 displays the “left”, “middle”, and “right” effect symbol display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R. The same (coincident) effect symbol is determined as the final stop symbol. The effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating a random value for determining the jackpot determined symbol updated by the random number circuit 124 or the effect random counter. Subsequently, by referring to the jackpot determined symbol determination table stored and prepared in advance in the ROM 121, the “left”, “middle”, and “right” effect symbol display areas 5L on the screen of the effect display device 5A, An effect symbol having the same symbol number that is stopped and displayed in line with 5C and 5R is determined. At this time, depending on whether the variable display content is “non-probability change (big hit)” or “probability change (big hit)”, whether or not the promotion effect during the big hit is executed, etc. It is only necessary to determine which one of the probable design (for example, the design to be shown) and the probability variation design (for example, the design for producing odd numbers) is to be the finalized design. In the jackpot promotion effect, a combination of performance symbols (non-probable variation jackpot combination) that recalls a big hit but does not recall a probable change state in the effect display device 5A is temporarily stopped and displayed in the big hit gaming state or the big hit gaming state. This is an effect of notifying whether or not the state is surely changed at the end of.

  As a specific example, when the variable display content is “non-probable change (big hit)”, a symbol to be a definite effect symbol is determined from a plurality of types of normal symbols. Further, when the variable display content is “probability change (big hit)” and it is determined not to execute the jackpot promotion effect, the one that becomes the definite effect design is determined from among a plurality of types of probability change symbols. On the other hand, when the variable display content is “probability change (big hit)”, when it is determined to execute the promotion effect during the big hit, the one that becomes the finalized effect symbol is determined from the plural types of normal symbols. Thereby, it is only necessary to prevent the promotion effect during the big hit from being executed despite the fact that the probability variation symbols are all derived and displayed as the confirmed effect symbols, so that the player is not distrusted.

  After S321, change effect setting processing for performing execution setting of the hold display change effect is executed (S322). In the change effect setting process, the execution setting of the hold display change effect is performed when the execution condition of the hold display change effect is satisfied based on the stored contents of the hold display data storage unit. In the change effect setting process, the execution setting of the hold display change effect is performed when the execution condition of the hold display change effect is satisfied based on whether or not the “pseudo-continuous” variable display effect is executed. You may do it.

  After S322, the effect control pattern is determined as one of a plurality of patterns prepared in advance (S323). For example, the effect control CPU 120 selects any one of a plurality of prepared effect control patterns (special-figure change effect control patterns) corresponding to the change pattern indicated by the change pattern designation command and uses it as the use pattern. set. Further, the effect control CPU 120 selects one of a plurality of prepared effect control patterns (display change effect control patterns) corresponding to the execution setting of the hold display change effect by the change effect setting process of S322, and uses pattern Set as.

  After S323, the effect control CPU 120 executes a movable body effect setting process (S323A) for operating the movable body in the case of the reach effect of Super Reach A, for example.

  In the movable body effect setting process shown in FIG. 30A, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether the change pattern of the super reach A is based on the change pattern indicated in the change pattern designation command from the main board 11. (S501). If it is determined that the variation pattern of the super reach A (S501; Yes), the presence / absence and type of the movable body effect is determined (S502). Specifically, in the process of S502, the effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating the random number for determining the movable body effect, and uses the extracted numerical data and the movable object effect determination table shown in FIG. It is used to determine whether or not to execute the movable body effect and the operation pattern if it is executed.

  As shown in FIG. 30B, in the case of the super reach A (lack) fluctuation pattern, “no execution” is 15%, “execution is” and “operation pattern PTA-1 (first operation mode shown in FIG. 11). ) ”Is determined with a probability of 55%, and“ execution is performed ”and“ operation pattern PTA-2 (the second operation mode shown in FIG. 12 after the first operation mode shown in FIG. 11) ”is 30% Determined by On the other hand, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) variation pattern, “no execution” is determined with a probability of 10%, “execution is performed” and “operation pattern PTA-1 (first operation form)” is determined with a probability of 20%. Then, “execution is performed” and “operation pattern PTA-2 (second operation mode after the first operation mode)” is determined with a probability of 70%. In the case of a big hit, the movable body effect is easier to be executed than in the case of losing, and it is possible to have a big hit expectation for the movable body effect, thereby improving the interest of the game. Further, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) variation pattern, the movable body effect of “motion pattern PTA-2 (second motion mode after the first motion mode)” is greater than in the case of the super reach A (lack) variation pattern. It is easy to be executed, and the movable body effect in which the first movable body 300 operates in the second operation mode shown in FIG. 12 can have a big hit expectation, and the interest of the game is improved. Also, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) variation pattern, since “operation pattern PTA-1 (first operation mode shown in FIG. 11)” is executed, the first movable body 300 is shown in FIG. The movable body effect that operates in the operation mode can also have a big hit expectation, and the interest of the game is improved. Here, the operation pattern PTA-2 performs the second operation mode after the first operation mode, but is not limited thereto. For example, the operation pattern PTA-2 may perform only the second operation mode shown in FIG.

  Note that the movable body effect may be executed not only in the variation pattern of the super reach A but also in the variation pattern of the super reach B. The variation pattern of super reach may include a variation pattern having pseudo continuous variation. For example, regarding the determination of the movable body effect, a determination ratio may be set such that the degree of expectation increases as the number of pseudo continuous fluctuations increases. What is necessary is just to set so that a determination ratio may differ according to whether it is a big hit and the frequency | count of a pseudo | simulation variation.

  After S502 shown in FIG. 30A, it is determined whether or not the movable body effect is determined (S503). If it is determined that the movable body effect is present (S503; Yes), the movable body effect flag indicating that the movable body effect is executed is set to the ON state (S504). After S504, a movable body effect pattern corresponding to the type of movable body effect determined in S502 is set (S505). That is, the operation pattern PTA-1 or PTA-2 determined in S502 is set. If it is determined in S501 that the pattern is not a super reach variation pattern (S501; No), if there is no movable body effect in S503 (S503; No), or after S505, the movable body effect setting process is terminated. To do.

  Returning to FIG. 29B, following the processing of S323A, the CPU 120 for effect control, for example, in a predetermined area (effect control timer setting unit, etc.) of the RAM 122 corresponding to the change pattern specified by the change pattern specifying command. The initial value of the effect control process timer provided in is set (S324). And the setting for starting the fluctuation | variation of an effect design etc. is performed on the screen of effect display apparatus 5A (S325). At this time, for example, a display control command designated by the display control data included in the effect control pattern (special-fluctuation effect control pattern) determined in the process of S323 is transmitted to the VDP of the display control unit 123. Thus, the variation of the effect symbols may be started in the “left”, “middle”, and “right” effect symbol display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R provided in the display area of the effect display device 5A.

  After S325, the first hold display in the first hold storage display area 5D, the second hold display in the second hold storage display area 5U, and the like are updated in response to the start of variable display of the effect symbols. For this purpose (S326). For example, when the first special figure game is executed (started), the display portion (the leftmost display portion) corresponding to the hold number “1” in the first hold storage display area 5D is erased (digested). The first hold display in the display portion corresponding to the other hold numbers “2” to “4” is moved (shifted) to the left one by one. On the other hand, when the second special figure game is executed (started), the display part (the display part at the right end) corresponding to the hold number “1” is erased (digested) in the second hold storage display area 5U. At the same time, the second hold display in the display parts corresponding to the other hold numbers “2” to “4” is moved (shifted) to the right one by one. Thereafter, the value of the effect process flag is updated to “2”, which is a value corresponding to the effect process during variable display (S327), and the variable display start setting process ends.

  Returning to FIG. 29A, the variable display processing in S172 is executed when the value of the effect process flag is “2”. In the effect processing during variable display shown in FIG. 31, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not the variable display time corresponding to the variation pattern has elapsed based on, for example, the timer value of the effect control process timer (S341). . As an example, in the process of S341, when the timer value of the effect control process timer is updated (for example, 1 is subtracted) and an end code is read from the effect control pattern corresponding to the updated effect control process timer value, etc. It may be determined that the variable display time has elapsed. When the variable display time has not elapsed in S341 (S341; No), the effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not it is the hold display change effect period for executing the hold display change effect (S342). ). The hold display change effect period may be determined in advance in, for example, the effect control pattern (display change effect control pattern) determined in the process of S323 shown in FIG. If it is the hold display change effect period (S342; Yes), control for executing the hold display change effect is performed (S343). In the process of S343, various commands created based on the setting of the display change effect control pattern are transmitted to the display control unit 123, the audio control board 13, the LED control board 14, and the like. Thereby, a predetermined effect image is displayed on the screen of the effect display devices 5A, 5X, and 5Y, a predetermined sound effect is output from the speakers 8L and 8R, and the effect LED 9 is turned on, blinked, or turned off. Or what is necessary is just to be able to perform a pending | holding display change effect in a predetermined production device by combining some or all of these.

  When it is determined in S342 that it is not the hold display change effect period (S342; No), after S343, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not it is a reach effect period for executing the reach effect. Determination is made (S346). The reach production period may be determined in advance, for example, in the production control pattern determined according to the variation pattern. When it is determined in S346 that it is the reach production period (S346; Yes), control for executing the reach production is performed (S347). After S347, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not the movable object effect flag is on (S347A). If the movable body effect flag is on (S347A; Yes), it is determined whether or not the operation valid period during which the operation of the stick controller 31A or the like is valid (S347B). If it is the operation valid period (S347B; Yes), it is determined whether or not the stick controller 31A has been operated (S347C). When the stick controller 31A is operated (S347C; Yes), the operation flag is set to an on state (S347D). When it is determined in S347B that the operation is not valid (S347B; No), when it is determined in S347C that the stick controller 31A is not operated (S347C; No), after S347D, the movable body It is determined whether or not it is an effect period (S347E). When it is a movable body production period (S347E; Yes), it is determined whether an operation flag is ON (S347F). When the operation flag is on (S347F; Yes), a movable body effect execution process is performed (S347G). If the operation flag is not on (S347F; No), an alternative effect execution process is performed in place of the movable object effect (S347H). Even when the operation flag is not on (S347F; No), the movable body effect execution process may be performed (S347G).

  When it is determined that the movable body effect flag is not ON in S347A (S347A; No), when it is determined that the movable body effect period is not determined in S347E (S347E; No), after S347G, or S347H After that, the effect control CPU 120 executes an effect during variable display including a variable display operation of effect symbols based on the setting in the effect control pattern determined corresponding to the variation pattern, for example. Control is performed (S348).

  If the variable display time has elapsed in S341 (S341; Yes), it is determined whether or not a symbol confirmation command transmitted from the main board 11 has been received (S349). At this time, if there is no reception of the symbol confirmation command (S349; No), the variable display effect processing is terminated and the apparatus waits. If the predetermined time has elapsed without receiving the symbol confirmation command after the variable display time has elapsed, predetermined error processing is executed in response to the failure to successfully receive the symbol confirmation command. You may make it do. When the symbol confirmation command is received in S349 (S349; Yes), for example, the display result in the variable display of the effect symbol such as transmitting a predetermined display control command to the VDP or the like of the display control unit 123. A control for deriving and displaying the final stop symbol (determined effect symbol) is performed (S350). In the process of S350, the final stop symbol in the variable display of the effect symbol is derived and displayed. Then, after S350, a predetermined time is set as a hit start designation command reception waiting time (S351). After S351, the movable body effect flag and the operation flag are reset to the off state (S351A). Then, the value of the effect process flag is updated to “3” that is a value corresponding to the waiting process per special figure (S352), and then the effect process during variable display is ended.

  The special figure waiting process in S173 is a process executed when the value of the effect process flag is “3”. The effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not the current elapsed time since the last stop symbol is derived and displayed (measured with a predetermined timer) has reached a preset hit start designation command reception waiting time. However, when the hit start designation command is received when the hit is not reached (when the hit start designation command reception flag is ON), the big hit effect (from the start of the fanfare executed in the big hit gaming state to before the ending) Start setting (such as setting of the production control pattern). Thereafter, the value of the effect process flag is updated to “4”, and this process is terminated. If the hit start designation command reception waiting time has not been reached and no hit start designation command has been received, this processing is terminated. If the current elapsed time has reached the waiting time, the variable display result of the special figure game is determined to be “lost”, the value of the effect process flag is updated to “0”, and this process is terminated. Since the current elapsed time has not reached the waiting time and the waiting start designation command reception waiting time has not elapsed, the present process is terminated.

  The hitting process in S174 is a process executed when the value of the effect process flag is “4”. The effect control CPU 120 sets, for example, an effect control pattern corresponding to the effect contents in the big hit gaming state, and displays effect images based on the set contents on the screen of the effect display devices 5A, 5X, 5Y, Operating the effect display devices 5X and 5Y, outputting voice and sound effects from the speakers 8L and 8R by outputting commands (sound effect signals) to the sound control board 13, and commands (lighting signals) to the LED control board 14 ) Is used to control various production operations during a predetermined period in which the grand prize winning door as an attacker is opened, such as turning on / off the production LED 9. In the hit process, for example, in response to receiving a hit end designation command from the main board 11, the value of the effect process flag is updated to “5” which is a value corresponding to the ending effect process.

  The ending process of S175 is a process executed when the value of the effect process flag is “5”, and is a process for executing the ending at the end of the big hit gaming state. In the ending process, display control is performed in the effect display devices 5A, 5X, and 5Y to notify the player that the big hit gaming state has ended.

  Next, an example of a composite effect including a movable body effect and a display device effect in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIGS. 32A to 32F are explanatory views showing an example of the flow of the composite effect.

  First, as shown in FIG. 32 (A), for example, after the reach state is established during a predetermined symbol variation display, as shown in FIG. 32 (B), the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are displayed on the effect display device 5A. It moves so that it may approach the position of the front side, and the display which shows having developed into the super reach effect etc. is performed on the effect display apparatuses 5X and 5Y.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 32 (C), the effect display devices 5X and 5Y come into contact with each other to form one display unit, and the operation promotion that prompts the player to operate the operating means on the display unit An image is displayed.

  When the player operates the operation means during the operation acceptance period of the operation means, as shown in FIG. 32D, the effect display devices 5X and 5Y move to the standby position and the movable body effect in the present embodiment. When the start condition is satisfied, the movable body effect is executed, and the first movable body 300, the second movable body 400, and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R perform the rendering operation, and the movable body unit changes from the operation standby mode to the first operation mode. To change. At this time, each movable body is superimposed in front of the display unit of the effect display device 5A, so that the display unit of the effect display device 5A is difficult to see from the player.

  When the first operation mode of the movable body unit elapses for a predetermined time, as shown in FIG. 32E, the second movable body 400 and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R are housed, and the first movable body 300 and the first movable body 300 The four movable bodies 600L and 600R perform a production operation, and the movable body unit changes from the first operation form to the second operation form. Also at this time, each movable body is superimposed in front of the display unit of the effect display device 5A, and the display unit of the effect display device 5A becomes difficult for the player to see. Further, during execution of the movable body effect (for example, as shown in FIG. 32D, when the movable body unit changes from the operation standby mode to the first operation mode, when the movable body unit is in the first operation mode, FIG. In the case of changing to the second operation mode as shown in (E), the game area side light emitting component (for example, the light emitting component (LED) of the center decorative frame 52, the normal winning ball device 6A or the normal variable winning ball device) The light emitting component (LED) of 6B, at least one of the light emitting components (LED) for causing at least a part of the surface of the game board 2 to emit light, or lower brightness than when the movable body effect is not executed. The light is emitted. Thereby, a movable body effect can be made conspicuous and a player can be watched at a movable body effect. Therefore, the effect of production can be improved.

  Next, when the second operation mode of the movable body unit elapses for a predetermined time, the storage operation of the first movable body 300 and the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R is executed, and the movable body effect ends. Then, a super reach effect is executed, and after the super reach effect is executed, for example, in the case of a big hit, a symbol indicating a big hit (for example, 7-7-7) is displayed on the effect display device 5A. The effect images (for example, characters and characters) are displayed on the effect display devices 5X and 5Y.

  As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 according to the above-described embodiment, the window 51 for visually recognizing the game area 10, the first movable body 300 provided so as to be operable, and the first movable body 300 are controlled. The window 51 is arranged closer to the game area 10 than the first transparent body 250 and the hole 270 is formed. At least a part of the first movable body 300 enters the space S formed between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 through the hole portion 270. The first movable body 300 can execute the second operation of moving to the first effect position that enters between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260. That is, the 1st movable body 300 can be made to approach at a stretch from the 1st stand-by position (origin position) shown in FIG. 16 to the 1st production position shown in FIG. be able to. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  The first movable body 300 is accelerated and advanced between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 to be advanced (consisting of the slide plate 301 of the first movable body 300 and the rail 701 of the base member 700. The slide plate 301 of the first movable body 300 can be accelerated and advanced along the rail 701 of the base member 700 in an obliquely downward direction. For this reason, a powerful movable body effect can be provided to the player. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  For example, since the rail 701 of the base member 700 is a guide member having an obliquely downward linear path (downward guide path portion), the slide plate 301 of the first movable body 300 faces downward along the obliquely downward rail 701. By being guided, the first movable body 300 can be accelerated and advanced to the second position P2. For this reason, a powerful movable body effect can be provided to the player. A part of the rail 701 may have a part other than downward.

  Further, the first movable body 300 is a first standby position (see FIG. 16) that is a position that does not overlap the effect display device 5A (display means) (or may be a position that partially overlaps the display means). It is possible to operate from the origin position) to the first effect position shown in FIG. For example, the first movable body 300 at the origin position is invisible or difficult to see from the player, and the first movable body 300 at the origin position suddenly appears at the first performance position. Can give you a surprise. For this reason, a powerful movable body effect can be provided to the player.

  In addition, the CPU 120 for effect control has the first movable body 300 in the first standby position, with a predetermined portion (front half) on the surface A side (front side) of the main body 302 via the hole 270 of the rear transmission plate 261. After executing the first control to move to the front side until it is located on the front transmission plate 251 side relative to the rear transmission plate 261, and after executing the first control, a predetermined part (front half) on the surface A side (front side) of the main body 302 The first protrusion 303 that is a part of the main body 302 is moved in a direction (front upper direction) intersecting the moving direction (front lower direction) in the first control, or after executing the first control. The second protrusion 304, which is a part of a predetermined portion (front half) on the surface A side (front side) of the first control, is moved in a direction (front upper direction) intersecting the movement direction (front lower direction) in the first control. Second control to be performed can be performed. According to this configuration, after performing the first control to move the first movable body 300 toward the first transmission body 250, at least a part of the predetermined portion of the main body 302 (for example, the first protrusion 303 or the second protrusion). By performing the second control to move the protrusion 304) in a direction (front upper direction) different from the movement direction (front lower direction) in the first control on the first transmission body 250 side than the second transmission body 260. Since the player can give an impact, the effect of the production can be improved.

  Specifically, after performing the first control as well as the first control for moving the first movable body 300 toward the first transmission body 250, the direction is different from the moving direction (front downward direction) in the first control. By performing the second control to move in the (front-upward direction), a part of the main body 302 (for example, the first protrusion 303 or the second protrusion 304) is expanded and the first movable body 300 is expanded. Because it seems to be, it can have an impact on the player.

  Further, the rear transmission plate 261 is disposed to face the front side of the board surface plate 200 so that the game ball can flow down between the game board surface 200A and forms a flow area of the game ball between the game board surface 200A. Therefore, the hole 270 is formed at a position corresponding to an effect area (opening 2 c formed on the board surface plate 200) that does not correspond to the flow-down area of the game ball in the game area 10. That is, since it is necessary to secure a flow-down area of the game ball, there is a limit to enlarge the hole 270, and in order to pass the first movable body 300 through the hole 270, the first movable body 300 is It cannot be made larger than the hole 270.

  Therefore, after performing the first control to move the first movable body 300 to the front side as in the present invention, at least a part of the predetermined portion of the main body 302 (for example, the first protrusion 303 or the second protrusion 304). ) Is moved in a direction (front upper direction) different from the movement direction (front lower direction) in the first control on the front side of the second transmission body 260, thereby making the hole 270 more than necessary. A part of the main body 302 is expanded when the first movable body 300 is viewed from the front (player side) at a position closer to the player on the front side than the rear transmission plate 261 without increasing the size. Therefore, the player can provide a powerful presentation.

  In the second control, the effect control CPU 120 moves the first projecting portion 303 and the second projecting portion 304, which are a part of the predetermined portion (front half) of the main body 302, in the moving direction (front and lower) in the first control. Move in a direction (front-up direction) that intersects the direction. By doing in this way, the movement (protrusion operation | movement) of the 1st protrusion part 303 and the 2nd protrusion part 304 of the 1st movable body 300 in 2nd control can be shown suitably.

  In the second control, the first projecting portion 303 and the second projecting portion 304, which are a part of the predetermined portion (front half) of the main body 302, intersect the moving direction (front lower direction) in the first control. The first protrusion 303 and the second protrusion 304 are disposed around the main body 302 when viewed from the front in order to move in the direction and the front upward direction that is along the front transmission plate 251. Since it can be expanded and moved toward the player side, more powerful effects can be provided.

  Since the first movable body 300 moves in the opposite direction (front side) to the game area 10 in the second control, that is, gradually moves forward in the first control and the second control, it has a powerful effect. It can be performed.

  In addition, the first movable body 300 moves forward while descending forward and downward from the first standby position toward the first effect position by the first control, so that the player side is more than the one that moves horizontally. You can make it easier to understand how you are moving towards Further, since not only the surface A but the surface B of the main body 302 can be visually recognized when moving forward, the main body 302 can be shown larger.

  The second movable body 400 and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R that support the first movable body 300 in the first operation mode, and the fourth movable body 600L that supports the first movable body 300 in the second operation mode. , 600R and the like. By doing so, the posture of the first movable body 300 during and after the operation can be stabilized.

  More specifically, the first movable body 300 is operably supported by a base member 700 provided on the back side of the game board 2, and moves to the front side via the board surface plate 200 and the rear transmission plate 261. Since the moving distance is longer than that of a conventional movable body that moves only to the front of the rear transmission plate 261, it may be supported stably via a guide rail or the like. If a guide rail or the like is provided, the visibility may be lowered, for example, when the movable body effect is not executed, the guide rail or the like makes it difficult to see a part of the game area 10 behind. Therefore, by reducing the visibility of the game area 10 during the non-execution of the movable body effect, it is possible to prevent the game area 10 from being deteriorated by being supported only by the other fourth movable bodies 600L, 600R and the like. it can.

  In addition, a related movable body (for example, the second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R, the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R, etc.) different from the first movable body 300 is provided. After the control, the second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R, the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R, and the like can be controlled to move together in the first movable body 300. By doing so, the first movable body 300 and the second movable body (for example, the second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R, the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R, etc.) support each other by combining. Therefore, the posture after movement can be stabilized.

  Specifically, in the first operation mode and the second operation mode of the movable body unit, related movable bodies (second movable body 400, third movable bodies 500L and 500R, and fourth movable body different from the first movable body 300 are used. 600L, 600R) are arranged so as to abut or be close to each other at the peripheral position of the first movable body 300, so that the first movable portion 303 and the second protruding portion 304 protrude, and the first movable after the protruding operation. Even if the body 300 shakes, it can support each other and stabilize its posture.

  Further, when the second movable body 400 and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R are combined with the first movable body 300 in the first operation mode, or when the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R are combined with the first movable body 300 in the second operation mode. The second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth movable bodies 600L and 600R are arranged on the rear side with respect to the rear transmission plate 261. By doing in this way, when the 1st movable body 300 and the 2nd movable body (for example, 2nd movable body 400, 3rd movable body 500L, 500R, 4th movable body 600L, 600R, etc.) were united. Since the first movable body 300 in the first control is located at a different position in the moving direction (front-rear direction), a sense of depth can be generated.

  Moreover, the window part 51 can open and close the game area | region 10 (refer FIG. 3), and the 1st movable body 300 does not contact the 2nd permeation | transmission body 260, when opening and closing the window part 51 (refer FIG. 21). By doing in this way, damage to the 1st movable body 300 or the 2nd penetration body 260 can be prevented.

  Specifically, the front part of the first movable body 300 (the part disposed closer to the front transmission plate 251 than the hole 270 in the closed state of the opening / closing frame 50) is within the rotation region Z of the hole 270. Therefore, even if the opening / closing frame 50 is opened / closed, the rear transmission plate 261 does not contact the first movable body 300. According to this, for example, during the operation of the movable body unit, that is, during the execution of the first control or the second control, an operation error or the like occurs and the first movable body 300 remains stopped at the first effect position. Even when it is necessary to perform maintenance by opening the opening / closing frame 50, the opening / closing frame 50 can be opened without contacting the rear transmission plate 261, so that the rear transmission plate 261 and the first movable body 300 are damaged. Can be prevented.

  In the present embodiment, the first movable body 300 is disposed in the rotation region Z of the hole 270 even when the first control or the second control is being performed in the movable body effect. Although the embodiment in which the opening / closing frame 50 can be opened without contacting the plate 261 is illustrated, the present invention is not limited to this, and the second transmitting body is not contacted when the opening / closing frame 50 is opened / closed. Just do it.

  Further, the first movable body 300 is provided with light emitting means (for example, movable body LED 350A, movable body LED 350B, movable body LEDs 350CL, 350CR) that can irradiate light other than the first transmission body 250 after performing the first control. , And movable body LEDs 350DL, 350DR, etc.). In this way, it is possible to appeal the production not only to the player but also to the surroundings.

  Specifically, not only the moving effect of the first movable body 300 but also the light emitting effects of the movable body LED 350A, the movable body LED 350B, the movable body LEDs 350CL and 350CR, and the movable body LEDs 350DL and 350DR can be performed. Can appeal.

  In addition, a gaming machine frame 3 having a gaming board 2 for forming the gaming area 10, an opening / closing frame 50 having a window 51 provided so as to be openable / closable with respect to the gaming machine frame 3, and a window portion in the opening / closing frame 50 The display LED 9 provided in a region other than the door 51 includes an effect LED 9 as an opening / closing door-side light emitting component, and an effect control CPU 120 as light emission control means for controlling the light emission of the effect LED 9, and the effect control CPU 120 is a first movable body. 300, the second movable body 400, the third movable bodies 500L, 500R, and the fourth movable bodies 600L, 600R can change the light emission mode of the effect LED 9 to the first to fifth light emission modes. . By doing in this way, the movement of the 1st movable body 300 can be produced suitably.

  Further, the effect control CPU 120 performs control to cause the effect LED 9 to emit light in the first light emission mode and then to emit light in the second light emission mode having a lower luminance than the first light emission mode. By doing in this way, the fall of transparency of the 1st movable body 300 grade | etc., Can be suppressed.

  Specifically, after performing the first control in the first light emission mode, when the movable body unit is in the first operation mode (second control), in the second light emission mode having a lower luminance than the first light emission mode. In order to emit light, halation or the like occurs due to the light of the production LED 9 during the second control, which is the production in which the first movable body 300 appears to expand, and the reduction in the visibility of each movable body can be suppressed. .

  In addition, a gaming machine frame 3 having a gaming board 2 for forming the gaming area 10, an opening / closing frame 50 having a window 51 provided so as to be openable / closable with respect to the gaming machine frame 3, and a window portion in the opening / closing frame 50 The display LED 9 is provided in a region other than the door 51 and includes an effect LED 9 as an opening / closing door side light-emitting component, and an effect control CPU 120 as light emission control means for controlling the light emission of the effect LED 9. It is provided so that light can be irradiated toward the first movable body 300 after being broken. By doing in this way, the 1st movable body 300 can be made conspicuous with light.

  The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment and the like, and various modifications and applications are possible (the above configuration may be deleted). Below, the modification of the said embodiment is shown. You may combine at least one part about each of the following modification.

  In the above embodiment, the hole 270 is formed in the second transmission body 260, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the second transmitting body 260 may be formed with a cutout portion having a size that allows the first movable body 300 to enter.

(Modification 1)
In the above embodiment, the first movable body 300 is moved obliquely downward from the first standby position (origin position) toward the first effect position by the first drive mechanism 310 (arrow 1 in FIGS. 13 and 16). However, the present invention is not limited to this. As in Modification 1 shown in FIG. 33, the first movable body 300 includes a first operation ACT1 that operates at a first position P1 that does not enter between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260, and a first operation ACT1. The second operation ACT2 that operates at the second position P2 that enters between the transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 may be executable. That is, the first movable body 300 may be operated in two stages as shown in FIG. For example, the first movable body 300 moves from the first standby position (origin position P0) that does not enter between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 to the first position P1 immediately below the first operation ACT1 ( For example, movement in the drooping direction is possible. Further, the first movable body 300 enters the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 through the hole 270 of the rear transmission plate 261 from the first position P1 toward the player side. A second operation ACT2 (for example, movement in the horizontal direction) that operates at two positions P2 is possible.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 33, the first movable body 300 is an origin position that is a position that is not superimposed on the effect display device 5A (display means) (or may be a position that is partially superimposed on the display means). Operation from P0 to the first position P1 or the second position P2 is possible. For example, the first movable body 300 at the origin position P0 is invisible or difficult to see from the player, and the first movable body 300 at the origin position P0 suddenly appears at the first position P1 or the second position P2. Will give the player a surprise. For this reason, a powerful movable body effect can be provided to the player.

  Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 34A, the first movable body 300 may have different operation speeds between the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2. The first operation ACT1 (movement from the origin position P0 to the first position P1) is executed at the first speed V1. The second operation ACT2 (movement from the first position P1 to the second position P2) is executed at the second speed V2. The operation speed (second speed V2) of the second operation ACT2 is higher than the operation speed (first speed V1) of the first operation ACT1. For example, the first speeds V1 and V2 may be the maximum speed and the average speed. Specifically, in the process of S502 of the first modification, the effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating the random number for determining the movable object effect, and determines the extracted numerical data and the movable object effect determination shown in FIG. Whether or not to execute the movable body effect and the operation pattern in the case of execution may be determined using the table.

  As shown in FIG. 34A, in the case of the super reach A (lack) fluctuation pattern, “No execution” is 15%, and “Execution” is “First operation pattern PTB-1 (only the first operation ACT1)”. "Is determined with a probability of 55%, and" with execution "," second operation pattern PTB-2 (second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1) "is determined with a probability of 30%. On the other hand, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) variation pattern, “no execution” is 10%, “execution is” and “first operation pattern PTB-1 (only the first operation ACT1)” is 20%. The “second execution pattern PTB-2 (second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1)” is determined with a probability of 70%. In the case of a big hit, the movable body effect is easier to be executed than in the case of losing, and it is possible to have a big hit expectation for the movable body effect, thereby improving the interest of the game. Further, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) variation pattern, the movable body of the “second operation pattern PTB-2 (the second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1)” than in the case of the super reach A (loss) variation pattern. The production is easy to be executed, and the first movable body 300 can have a big hit expectation with respect to the movable body production in which the second operation ACT2 shown in FIG. 33 is executed, and the entertainment of the game is improved. Also, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) variation pattern, since the “first operation pattern PTB-1 (only the first operation ACT1)” is executed, the first movable body 300 performs the first operation shown in FIG. The movable body effect that executes ACT1 can also have a big hit expectation, and the fun of the game is improved.

  According to the first modification, the first movable body 300 includes a first operation ACT1 that operates at a first position P1 that does not enter between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260, and the first transmission body 250. A second operation ACT2 that moves to the second position P2 that enters between the second transmission body 260 and the second transmission body 260 can be executed. In particular, in the second operation ACT2, the first movable body 300 moves to the second position P2 where the first movable body 250 enters between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260, so that the movable body is powerful against the player. Production can be provided. Further, the operation speed differs between the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2. Therefore, it is possible to provide a variety of movable body effects. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  For example, the operation speed (second speed V2) of the second operation ACT2 is greater than the operation speed (first speed V1) of the first operation ACT1. For this reason, since the operation speed of the second position P2 close to the player is faster than the operation speed of the first position P1 far from the player, a powerful movable body effect can be provided.

  The operation speed (second speed V2) of the second operation ACT2 may be smaller than the operation speed (first speed V1) of the first operation ACT1. In this case, since the operation speed when the first movable body 300 enters through the hole 270 or the notch of the rear transmission plate 261 is slow, the vibration of the first movable body 300 in the second operation ACT2 (Vibration in a direction different from the traveling direction) is reduced, and the first movable body 300 can be prevented from contacting the hole 270 or the notch. For this reason, failure due to the second operation ACT2 of the first movable body 300 can be reduced.

  Note that at least one of the operation speed, the operation range, the operation path, and the operation direction may be different between the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2. In the first modification, the operation speed is different between the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2 as shown in FIG. 34, and the operation is performed between the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2 as shown in FIG. The direction is also different. For example, the operation range of the second operation ACT2 may be larger than that of the first operation ACT1, or vice versa. Further, regarding the operation path, the second operation ACT2 may have a larger operation path than the first operation ACT1, or vice versa. Further, regarding the operation direction, the second operation ACT2 may have a larger operation path than the first operation ACT1, or may be made smaller.

  Further, as in Modification 1A shown in FIG. 34B, the first movable body 300 includes light emitting means (for example, movable body LEDs 350A, 350B, 350CL, 350CR, 350DL, 350DR, etc.) may have different light emission modes. The first operation ACT1 (movement from the origin position P0 to the first position P1) is executed in the first light emission mode (for example, luminance I1). The second operation ACT2 (movement from the first position P1 to the second position P2) is executed in the second light emission mode (for example, luminance I2). The luminance I2 of the second operation ACT2 is smaller than the luminance I1 of the first operation ACT1. Specifically, in the process of S502 of the modified example 1A, the effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating the random number for determining the movable object effect, and determines the extracted numerical data and the movable object effect determination shown in FIG. Whether or not to execute the movable body effect and the operation pattern in the case of execution may be determined using the table.

  As shown in FIG. 34 (B), in the case of the super reach A (lack) fluctuation pattern, “No execution” is 15% and “Execution” is “First operation pattern PTC-1 (only the first operation ACT1)”. ”Is determined with a probability of 55%, and“ execution is performed ”and“ second operation pattern PTC-2 (second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1) ”is determined with a probability of 30%. On the other hand, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) variation pattern, “no execution” is 10%, “execution is” and “first operation pattern PTC-1 (only the first operation ACT1)” is 20%. The “second execution pattern PTC-2 (second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1)” is determined with a probability of 70%. In the case of a big hit, the movable body effect is easier to be executed than in the case of losing, and it is possible to have a big hit expectation for the movable body effect, thereby improving the interest of the game. Further, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) variation pattern, the movable body of “second operation pattern PTC-2 (second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1)” than in the case of the super reach A (loss) variation pattern. The production is easy to be executed, and the first movable body 300 can have a big hit expectation with respect to the movable body production in which the second operation ACT2 shown in FIG. 33 is executed, and the entertainment of the game is improved. Also, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) variation pattern, since the “first operation pattern PTC-1 (only the first operation ACT1)” is executed, the first movable body 300 performs the first operation shown in FIG. The movable body effect that executes ACT1 can also have a big hit expectation, and the fun of the game is improved.

  According to the modified example 1A, the first movable body 300 includes a first operation ACT1 that operates at a first position P1 that does not enter between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260, and the first transmission body 250. A second operation ACT2 that moves to the second position P2 that enters between the second transmission body 260 and the second transmission body 260 can be executed. In particular, in the second operation ACT2, the first movable body 300 moves to the second position P2 where the first movable body 250 enters between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260, so that the movable body is powerful against the player. Production can be provided. Further, the light emission means (for example, movable body LEDs 350A, 350B, 350CL, 350CR, 350DL, 350DR, etc.) associated with the operation differ between the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2. Therefore, it is possible to provide a variety of movable body effects. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  For example, the second light emission mode (for example, luminance I2) of the second operation ACT2 is smaller than the first light emission mode (for example, luminance I1) of the first operation ACT1. For this reason, the glare when the 1st movable body 300 approaches the player side can be reduced.

  Note that the second light emission mode (for example, luminance I2) of the second operation ACT2 may be larger than the first light emission mode (for example, luminance I1) of the first operation ACT1. In this case, the first movable body 300 can be more dazzling when approaching the player side, and a light emitting effect with impact can be provided.

  In the modified example 1A, the first light emitting unit of the first movable body 300 (for example, movable body LEDs 350A, 350B, 350CL, 350CR, 350DL, 350DR, etc.) has different luminance as the first light emitting mode and the second light emitting mode. , At least one of the light amount, the emission color, the blinking interval, the emission sequence (for example, the order in which the movable body LEDs 350A, 350B, 350CL, 350CR, 350DL, and 350DR are lit) may be different.

  Further, as in Modification 1B shown in FIG. 34C, the first movable body 300 is a sound output means (for example, speakers 8L, 8R, etc.) that accompanies the operation in the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2. The production sound may be different. In the first operation ACT1 (movement from the origin position P0 to the first position P1), the effect sound in the first effect sound mode (for example, the volume Vo1) is output. In the second operation ACT2 (movement from the first position P1 to the second position P2), the effect sound in the second effect sound mode (for example, volume Vo2) is output. The volume Vo2 of the second operation ACT2 is larger than the volume Vo1 of the first operation ACT1. Specifically, in the process of S502 of the modified example 1B, the effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating the movable object effect determination random number, and determines the extracted numerical data and the movable object effect determination shown in FIG. It is only necessary to determine whether or not to execute the movable body effect and the operation pattern in the case of execution using the work table.

  As shown in FIG. 34C, in the case of the super reach A (loss) variation pattern, “No execution” is 15%, “Execution” is “First operation pattern PTC-1 (only the first operation ACT1)” ”Is determined with a probability of 55%, and“ execution is performed ”and“ second operation pattern PTC-2 (second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1) ”is determined with a probability of 30%. On the other hand, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) variation pattern, “no execution” is 10%, “execution is” and “first operation pattern PTC-1 (only the first operation ACT1)” is 20%. The “second execution pattern PTC-2 (second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1)” is determined with a probability of 70%. In the case of a big hit, the movable body effect is easier to be executed than in the case of losing, and it is possible to have a big hit expectation for the movable body effect, thereby improving the interest of the game. Further, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) variation pattern, the movable body of “second operation pattern PTC-2 (second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1)” than in the case of the super reach A (loss) variation pattern. The production is easy to be executed, and the first movable body 300 can have a big hit expectation with respect to the movable body production in which the second operation ACT2 shown in FIG. 33 is executed, and the entertainment of the game is improved. Also, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) variation pattern, since the “first operation pattern PTC-1 (only the first operation ACT1)” is executed, the first movable body 300 performs the first operation shown in FIG. The movable body effect that executes ACT1 can also have a big hit expectation, and the fun of the game is improved.

  According to the modified example 1B, the first movable body 300 includes the first operation ACT1 that operates at the first position P1 that does not enter between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260, the first transmission body 250, A second operation ACT2 that moves to the second position P2 that enters between the second transmission body 260 and the second transmission body 260 can be executed. In particular, in the second operation ACT2, the first movable body 300 moves to the second position P2 where the first movable body 250 enters between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260, so that the movable body is powerful against the player. Production can be provided. Further, the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2 have different production sounds (for example, speakers 8L, 8R, etc.). Therefore, it is possible to provide a variety of movable body effects. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  For example, it is assumed that the effect sound in the second effect sound mode (for example, volume Vo2) of the second operation ACT2 is larger than the effect sound in the first effect sound mode (for example, volume Vo1) of the first operation ACT1. For this reason, the 2nd operation close to the player of the 1st movable body 300 can be excited by a production sound. For this reason, a powerful movable body effect can be provided.

  The effect sound in the second effect sound mode (for example, volume Vo2) of the second operation ACT2 may be smaller than the effect sound in the first effect sound mode (for example, volume Vo1) of the first operation ACT1. In this case, the second operation ACT2 of the first movable body 300 can be focused by reducing the effect of the second sound close to the player of the first movable body 300. For example, the second operation ACT2 of the first movable body 300 can be watched by the silence effect. For this reason, a powerful movable body effect can be provided.

  In the modification 1B, the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2 are different in the volume of the effect sound accompanying the operation. However, the present invention is not limited to this. The first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2 may be different in at least one of the volume, pitch, tempo, music, melody, etc. of the production sound accompanying the operation. For example, as an example in which the music is different, the first effect sound mode of the first action ACT1 is, for example, the music A is played at a predetermined volume, and the second effect sound mode of the second action ACT2 is, for example, the music B is the predetermined volume (music (Same volume as in A)). In addition, as an example in which the music and the volume are different, for example, the first effect sound mode of the first action ACT1 is, for example, the song A is played at the first volume, and the second effect sound mode of the second action ACT2 is, for example, the song B is the second effect sound. You may make it reproduce | regenerate with a sound volume (a sound volume different from the 1st sound volume at the time of the music A).

  As shown in FIGS. 34A to 34C, the first movable body 300 performs the second operation ACT2 after executing the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2 after executing the first operation ACT1. In some cases, the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2 have different expectation levels (for example, big hit expectation degrees) controlled to be advantageous, so that the movable body effect can be achieved. A player can be watched. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved. For example, when the second action ACT2 has a higher expectation than the first action ACT1, coupled with the second action ACT2 being an action effect at a position closer to the player than the first action ACT1, The effect of the movable body effect can be enhanced.

  In addition, as the announcement effect executed by the effect control CPU 120 during the display of the effect symbols, as shown in FIG. 35A, various notice effects can be executed at a plurality of timings from the change start to the change stop. It has become. These notice effects include a reach notice that indicates whether or not to reach, a reach advance notice that suggests whether or not to develop an advantageous reach, and a jackpot notice effect that indicates the possibility of a big hit. You may make it perform the movable body effect of the said embodiment and modification in these notification effects.

  As an example of determining the movable body effect at the time of the advance notice of reach, as shown in FIG. 35 (B), the effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating the random number for determining the movable body effect, and the extracted numerical data. And the movable body effect determination table shown in FIG. 35B may be used to determine the operation pattern of the movable body effect. It should be noted that whether or not to execute the movable body effect and the operation pattern in the case of execution may be determined. As shown in FIG. 35B, in the case of the super reach variation pattern, “only the first operation ACT1” is determined with a probability of 30%, and “the second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1” has a probability of 70%. Determined by In the case of development to super reach, the movable body effect of “second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1” is easier to be executed than the movable body effect of “first operation ACT1 only”. Can improve the fun of gaming.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 36 (A1), the movable reach effect at the time of reaching the reach advance is the normal reach effect, and an operation promotion image for promoting the operation of the stick controller 31A is displayed. When the player operates the stick controller 31A, when the first action ACT1 is determined using the movable body effect determination table shown in FIG. 35 (B), as shown in FIG. 36 (A2), the first The movable body 300 performs the first operation ACT1 (the first movable body 300 shown in FIG. 33 moves from the origin position P0 to the first position P1). When the second motion ACT2 is determined using the movable body effect determination table shown in FIG. 35 (B), after the first movable body 300 shown in FIG. 36 (A2) performs the first motion ACT1, As shown in FIG. 36 (A3), the second action ACT2 (first movable body 300 shown in FIG. 33 advances to the second position P2 toward the player side) is performed. Then, as shown in FIG. 36 (A4), the super reach development is displayed, and the first movable body 300 returns to the origin position P0. In the case of only the first operation ACT1, it may not be developed into super reach. In addition, the determination example shown in FIG. 35B may be provided with a reach development pattern indicating reach development without the first movable body 300 being operated.

  As an example of determining the movable body effect at the time of the big hit notice, as shown in FIG. 35 (C), the effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating the random number for determining the movable body effect, and the extracted numerical data and The motion pattern of the movable body effect may be determined using the movable body effect determination table shown in FIG. In the case of the super reach A (losing) variation pattern, the movable body effect is not executed. That is, the first movable body 300 does not operate and remains at the origin position P0. On the other hand, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) variation pattern, the movable body effect of “second operation ACT2 after first operation ACT1” is executed. As shown in FIG. 33, if the first movable body 300 can perform a second action ACT2 after the first action ACT1 and the second action ACT2 is executed, it can have a big expectation and the first movable body 300 operates ( The second action ACT2 after the first action ACT1) can be known to be a big hit (a big hit confirmation notice), and the fun of the game is improved.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 36 (B1), the movable reach effect at the time of the big hit notice starts a super reach effect, and an operation promotion image for promoting the operation of the stick controller 31A is displayed in the turn effect. When the player operates the stick controller 31A, as shown in FIG. 36 (B2), the first movable body 300 is moved to the first action ACT1 (the first movable body 300 shown in FIG. 33 is moved from the origin position P0 to the first position P1. Move). In the case of the super reach (big hit) shown in FIG. 35C, the first movable body 300 is operated in the second action ACT2 (the first movable body 300 shown in FIG. 33 is a game) as shown in FIG. The second position P2 is advanced toward the user side). Then, as shown in FIG. 36 (B4), a big hit is displayed, and the first movable body 300 returns to the origin position P0. On the other hand, in the case of super reach (losing) shown in FIG. 35C, the first movable body 300 does not operate, and as shown in FIG. 36B5, the first movable body 300 stops at the origin position P0. The display is lost. That is, in the movable body effect at the time of jackpot notice, it can be known that if the first movable body 300 operates (second action ACT2 after the first action ACT1), it will be a big hit (big hit confirmation notice).

  In FIG. 36 (B1), the stick controller 31A is operated when the first movable body 300 is at the origin position P0. However, as shown in FIG. 36 (B2), the first movable body 300 is in the first position. After moving to P1, an operation effect that executes the second operation ACT2 of the first movable body 300 based on the operation of the stick controller 31A may be executable. For example, “no operation” shown in FIG. 35C may be “first operation only”. In this case, it is possible to provide an operation effect that the first movable body 300 executes the second operation ACT2 based on the detection of the player's operation. In other words, the player can watch whether the first movable body 300 at the first position P1 moves to the second position P2, and the player can participate in the game. Can be made.

  Further, an execution ratio in which only the first operation ACT1 is executed at the first timing and the second timing in the variable display (variable display), and an execution ratio in which the second operation ACT2 is executed after the execution of the first operation ACT1. May be different. For example, only the first operation ACT1 is executed at the execution timing (first timing) of the reach advance notice shown in FIG. 35 (A) and the execution timing (second timing) of the big hit notice shown in FIG. 35 (A). The execution rate is different from the execution rate at which the second operation ACT2 is executed after the first operation ACT1 is executed. In this case, the interest of the game can be improved. Further, the execution rates may be different at a plurality of timings in a predetermined notice (for example, reach advance notice).

(Modification 2A)
In the above embodiment, the first movable body 300 is moved obliquely downward from the first standby position (origin position) toward the first effect position by the first drive mechanism 310 (see arrow 1 in FIG. 16). However, it is not limited to this. As in Modification 2A shown in FIG. 37, the first movable body 300 may be operated from the origin position P0 to the second position P2 along the concave arcuate path RT1, or may be operated along the convex arcuate path RT2. May be. That is, it is only necessary that the downward guide path portion (rail, guide member, etc., not shown) of the first movable body 300 is formed in a convex or concave downward arc path. According to the modified example 2A, the first movable body 300 can be guided along a downward arcuate path, and the first movable body 300 can be accelerated and advanced. For this reason, a powerful movable body effect can be provided to the player.

(Modification 2B)
38, after the first movable body 300 operates from the origin position P0 to the first position P1, the first movable body 300 is recessed at the first position P1 and the second position P2. It may be possible to swing along the arcuate path RT3. In other words, the swing guide path portion (rail, guide member, etc., not shown) of the first movable body 300 only needs to be formed in a concave arc path. According to Modification 2B, since the first movable body 300 can swing along the concave arcuate path RT3, a movable body swinging effect in which the first movable body 300 is advanced and retracted is provided. be able to. For this reason, the effect of production can be improved.

(Modification 2C)

When the first movable body 300 is emitted and decorated, the decoration effect for decorating the first movable body 300 is executed. That is, the first movable body 300 that has entered between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 can be decorated with a predetermined effect on the side surface (tubular body 252A in FIG. 44). For this reason, a powerful movable body effect can be provided to the player. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  There are a plurality of types of execution patterns as decoration effects. For example, the effect LED 9 is a full-color LED, and as shown in FIG. 44B, the effect LED 9 can emit light in three types of light emission patterns (plural types of execution patterns) of blue, green, and red. Depending on the type of the light emission pattern (the type of execution pattern for the decoration effect), the degree of expectation (for example, the degree of big hit expectation) controlled to the advantageous state may be different. For example, the degree of expectation may be blue (expectation: small) <green (expectation: medium) <red (expectation: high). According to this, the player has a decoration effect (light emission effect of the first movable body 300 according to the degree of expectation by irradiating the first movable body 300 with the blue, green, and red light from the effect LED 9). Can be watched. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

It may be different. In this case, since the degree of expectation controlled to the advantageous state differs depending on the type of the light emission mode pattern, the player can be watched for the specific effect. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  In addition, as the specific effects, there are a plurality of types of specific light emission patterns (for example, specific light emission patterns in which at least one of the light emission color, the brightness, and the blinking interval is different). The expectation level may be different. In this case, since the degree of expectation controlled to the advantageous state varies depending on the type of the specific light emission pattern, the player can be watched for the specific effect. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  When a specific effect is executed, the game area side light-emitting component (for example, the light-emitting component (LED) of the center decorative frame 52, the light-emitting component (LED) of the ordinary winning ball device 6A or the ordinary variable winning ball device 6B, the game board) Alternatively, at least one of the light emitting components (LEDs) for causing at least a part of the surface of 2 to emit light may be turned off or emit light with a lower luminance than when the specific effect is not executed. According to this, when the specific effect is executed, the game area side light-emitting component is turned off or emitted with a lower luminance than when the specific effect is not executed, so that the specific effect can be conspicuous. For this reason, a player can be watched at a specific effect. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  Further, when executing a specific effect, the door-side light-emitting component (the effect LED 9 of the opening / closing frame 50) may be turned off or emit light with a lower brightness than when the specific effect is not executed. According to this, when executing the specific effect, the door side light emitting component of the opening / closing door (the effect LED 9 of the opening / closing frame 50) is turned off or emits light with a lower brightness than when the specific effect is not executed. A specific performance can be conspicuous. For this reason, a player can be watched at a specific effect. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  In addition, motion detection means (for example, a controller sensor unit 35A, push sensor 35B, etc.) for detecting the player's motion is provided, and based on detection of the player's motion by the motion detection means (for example, a stick by the controller sensor unit 35A). The specific effect may be executable (based on detection of an operation of the controller 31A or detection of an operation of the push button 31B by the push sensor 35B). According to this, the effect of production can be improved. Further, the player can participate in the game, and the interest of the game can be improved.

  Further, light from the image light guide display means (for example, the light guide plate GP shown in FIG. 46B) or the light guide member (for example, the light guide member 260d shown in FIG. 47A) receives the first transmission body 250 and the first light. You may make it provide the incident suppression means (For example, the light shielding member 260c shown in FIG. 45, a reflection member, etc.) which suppresses entering into at least one of the 2 transmissive bodies 260. According to this, the image light guide display means (for example, the light guide plate shown in FIG. 46B) is made by the incident suppression means (for example, the light shielding member 260c and the reflection member shown in FIG. 45, or the separation portion (gap portion)). GP) or light from the light guide member (for example, the light guide member 260d shown in FIG. 47A) is prevented from being incident on at least one of the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260. Therefore, it can suppress that a part of the 1st transmission body 250 or the 2nd transmission body 260 becomes an unexpected light emission mode. For this reason, the effect of production can be improved.

  Further, the window 51 may include a main body member to which the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 can be attached and detached. For example, the first transparent body 250 is exposed on the player side, and the first transparent body 250 may be intentionally damaged by a malicious player or the like, and is more easily damaged than the second transparent body 260. Further, the second movable body 260 may come into contact with the first movable body 300 when the opening / closing frame 50 is opened when the first movable body 300 is advanced. As described above, since the first transmissive body 250 or the second transmissive body 260 can be replaced in units, there is no need to replace the entire window portion 51. For this reason, the part replacement cost can be reduced, and the maintainability of the window portion 51 is excellent.

The specific effect may be an effect in which the corresponding regions 260e in a plurality of vertical columns emit light. For example, as shown in FIG. 48B, the specific effect may be an effect in which each corresponding area 260e emits light sequentially from the bottom to the top. On the contrary, it is good also as the effect which light-emits sequentially from the top to the bottom. The specific effect may be an effect in which the light emitting portion 9b of the light guide member 260d emits light. According to the eleventh modification, the effect of production can be improved.

(Modification 12)
Next, Modification 12 will be described with reference to FIG. 49A is a transverse cross-sectional view showing the window unit of the modified example 12, and FIG. 49B is a front view showing an effect mode of light guide plate effect. In this modification 12, an example in which the front transmission plate 251 and the rear transmission plate 261 function as a light guide plate will be described.

  Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 49A and 49B, the front transmission plate 251 reflects the light from the light guide plate LED 290 incident on the inside from the left and right side end faces forward and emits it from the front surface. A light emitting region E1 that forms a predetermined light guide pattern, that is, a light emitting region E1 that emits light by entering light inside the front transmission plate 251 (see the halftone dot region in FIG. 49B), and left and right side end surfaces And a non-light-emitting region that does not form a predetermined light-guiding pattern that reflects light from the light guide plate LED 290 that is incident on the inside to the front and emits the light from the front surface.

  The rear transmission plate 261 is provided in the first movable body 300, and forms a predetermined light guide pattern that reflects light from the light guide plate LED 291 that is incident from the side end surface of the hole 270 to the front and emits it from the front surface. The light emitting region E2 that emits light, that is, the light emitting region E2 that emits light by the light incident on the inside of the rear transmission plate 261 (see the hatched region in FIG. 49B), and the light that enters the inside from the side end surface of the hole 270 A non-light-emitting region that does not form a predetermined light guide pattern that reflects light from the light guide plate LED 291 forward and emits the light from the front surface.

  The light emitting regions E1 and E2 are formed on the back side in a fine uneven state (rough surface) so as to guide the incident light from the light guide plates LED 290 and 291 incident on the inside from the end face to be emitted from the front surface. Specifically, the light emitting regions E1 and E2 are formed in an uneven state (rough surface) having a substantially semicircular shape with a constant pitch in a sectional view when the light traveling direction is viewed from the side (details). Not shown).

  When light is incident inside from the end face of the front transmission plate 251 or the rear transmission plate 261, a predetermined pattern is applied to the front transmission plate 251 or the rear transmission plate 261 by a dot pattern formed by a plurality of concave portions formed in the light emitting regions E1 and E2. An image (still image) is displayed (see the halftone area and the shaded area in FIG. 49B).

  As shown in the present modification 12, the front transmission plate 251 of the first transmission body 250 and the rear transmission plate 261 of the second transmission body 260 are light guide plates that guide the light incident from the end face to emit light. By functioning, it is possible to further enhance the effect of the movable body effect. In particular, even in a state where the movable body has moved to the effect position where the predetermined portion is in front of the rear transmission plate 261, it is possible to produce the movable object by causing the light emitting area E1 to emit light in front of it.

  Since the light emitting area E1 and the light emitting area E2 behind the light emitting area E1 can emit light, the light emitting areas E1 and E2 corresponding to the front and rear positions of the movable body can be emitted. It is possible to produce a light emission effect at a location closer to. In addition, by simultaneously emitting light in the light emitting areas E1 and E2, it is possible to generate a sense of depth in the front and back, and thus the production effect is improved.

  Further, in the present modification 12, the light from the light guide plate LED provided on the movable body can be incident from the end face of the hole 270, so that the first transmission body 250 attached to the opening / closing frame 50 side, It is not necessary to provide a light emitter in the second transmission body 260, and it is not necessary to route the wiring from the side of the gaming machine frame 3 on which the effect control board 12 is mounted, so that the complexity of the wiring work can be avoided. In addition, you may make it light-emit the area | region E2 by the light from light-guide plate LED provided in the window part unit 51A side. In addition, although the light emitting areas E1 and E2 are provided in both the front transmission plate 251 and the rear transmission plate 261, they may be provided in only one of them.

  Further, in the present modification 12, an example in which the light emitting regions E1 and E2 are provided on both the front transmission plate 251 and the rear transmission plate 261 has been described. However, the cylindrical portion guides light incident from the end surface. You may make it function as a light guide which carries out surface light emission. In this case, the light emitting region provided in a part of the outer peripheral surface emits light by configuring the tubular portion with a translucent member having translucency and allowing light to enter from the front end or the rear end of the tubular portion. You can do it.

(Modification 13)
50, a movable light guide plate MGP (special movable body) different from the first movable body 300 is provided, and the movable light guide plate MGP has a first position P1 of the first movable body 300 and a first position P1. A fourth position that can be located at a third position P3 between the second position P2 and does not interfere with the movement of the first movable body 300 to the second position P2 when the first movable body 300 is moved to the second position P2. It may be possible to move to position P4. For example, the movable light guide plate MGP is a light guide plate (transparent rendering means) that performs light guide display when light is guided to the inside, and a third position P3 and a fourth position P4 by a light guide plate drive mechanism (not shown). And can be moved. As shown in FIG. 50, the fourth position P4 is a position closer to the first transmission body 250 than the second position P2. The light guide plate drive mechanism (not shown) includes a third position sensor and a fourth position sensor (determination means) for detecting the position of the movable light guide plate MGP.

  In the movable body effect execution process (S347G) of the modification 13 shown in FIG. 51, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not it is the movement timing of the movable light guide plate MGP (S71). When it is determined that it is the movement timing (S71; Yes), the movement of the movable light guide plate MGP from the third position P3 to the fourth position P4 is started (S72). After S72, it is determined whether or not the movable light guide plate MGP has reached the fourth position P4 (S73). When the movable light guide plate MGP is positioned at the fourth position P4, the effect control CPU 120 turns on the detection signal of the fourth position sensor, and based on the detection signal from the fourth position sensor, the movable light guide plate MGP is at the fourth position P4. Can be determined. When the movable light guide plate MGP has reached the fourth position P4 (S73; Yes), the first movable body 300 starts to move to the second position P2 (S74), and the first movable body 300 is moved to the second position P4. The operation at the second position P2 is executed (S75).

  On the other hand, when the movable light guide plate MGP has not reached the fourth position P4 (S73; No), the operation of the first movable body 300 is limited (S76). When the detection signal from the fourth position sensor is not on after the predetermined first time has elapsed since the start of the movement of the movable light guide plate MGP to the fourth position P4, the effect control CPU 120 determines that the movable light guide plate MGP It may be determined that the fourth position P4 has not been reached. Further, the second time from the start of movement of the movable light guide plate MGP to the fourth position P4 (however, the second time is a time shorter than the first time and includes a time away from the third position P3). If the detection signal from the third position sensor does not turn off even after a lapse of time, the movable light guide plate MGP remains at the third position P3, and the movable light guide plate MGP has not reached the fourth position P4. You may judge.

  The contents of limiting the operation of the first movable body 300 (S76) include, as shown in FIG. 51, operating the first movable body 300 at the first position P1, and moving to the second position P2 of the first movable body 300. May be stopped, or the operation of the first movable body 300 may be stopped.

  After S76, a light guide plate operation abnormality flag indicating that the movable light guide plate MGP is abnormal in operation is set to ON (S77). In addition, when it is not the movement timing of the movable light guide plate MGP (S71; No), or after S75 or after S77, the movable body effect execution process is ended.

  According to the modified example 13, when the first movable body 300 is moved to the second position P2, the first movable body 300 can be moved to the fourth position P4 that does not interfere with the movement of the first movable body 300 to the second position P2. A powerful movable body effect can be provided to the player. For this reason, the effect of production can be enhanced.

  Further, when the fourth position P4 of the movable light guide plate MGP is closer to the first transmission body 250 than the second position P2, the movable light guide plate MGP has entered between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260. Since the movable light guide plate MGP has moved to the fourth position P4 on the nearer side than the second position P2, the first movable body 300 and the movable light guide plate MGP can be provided to provide a movable body effect. The effect can be improved.

  Since the movable light guide plate MGP is a transparent rendering means that guides and displays light by being guided to the inside, the effect of the rendering can be improved by the light guide display of the movable light guide plate MGP. For example, when the movable light guide plate MGP is located at the third position P3 and the first movable body 300 is located at the first position P1, that is, the movable light guide plate MGP is in front of the first movable body 300 at the first position P1.

It may be configured.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the form which has arrange | positioned so that the front transmissive board 251 may incline with respect to the rear transmissive board 261 was illustrated, this invention is not limited to this, The following modifications 15 and 16 As shown, the front transmission plate 251 may be disposed substantially parallel to the rear transmission plate 261. Further, only a part of the front transmission plate 251 may be inclined and the other part may be arranged in parallel.

(Modification 15)
Here, Modification 15 will be described with reference to FIG. 53 (A) and 53 (B) are longitudinal sectional views showing the window unit of the modification 15. FIG.

  As in Modification 5 shown in FIGS. 53A and 53B, the front transmission plate 251 includes a first plate-like portion 251A that closes an opening on the front side of the tubular body 252A serving as a tubular portion, and a tubular body. And a second plate-like portion 251B disposed outside 252A.

As shown in FIG. 53A, the first plate-like portion 251A is arranged so as to be inclined with respect to the rear transmission plate 261, and the second plate-like portion 251B is arranged substantially parallel to the rear transmission plate 261. May be.
Further, as shown in FIG. 53 (B), both the first plate-like portion 251A and the second plate-like portion 251B may be arranged substantially parallel to the rear transmission plate 261.

  In the embodiment, the second movable body 400 and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R arranged below the first movable body 300 are positioned in front of the rear transmission plate 261 even when moved to the effect position. However, the present invention is not limited to this. In the case where the front transmission plate 251 is arranged so as to be inclined downward toward the rear side, the first is described. The movable body 300 can be moved to the front side until a predetermined portion of the main body 302 is positioned on the front transmission plate 251 side of the rear transmission plate 261 through the hole 270 of the rear transmission plate 261, and the second movable body 400 and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R may be moved to the front side until the predetermined portion is positioned on the front transmission plate 251 side with respect to the rear transmission plate 261 through the hole 270 of the rear transmission plate 261. Good.

  In such a case, the first predetermined portion of the first movable body 300 is in front of the predetermined portions of the second movable body 400 and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R in a state where each movable body is moved to the effect position. It is preferable that it is located in. By doing in this way, the movement amount of the 1st movable body 300, the 2nd movable body 400, and the 3rd movable bodies 500L and 500R can be varied according to the inclination of the front transmissive plate 251.

  In addition, when the first movable body 300, the second movable body 400, and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R are positioned below the player's line-of-sight position when moved to the effect position, the front side from the rear transmission plate 261 If it moves to, the game area 10 (particularly, the start winning opening or the big winning opening) below the movable body may become difficult to see due to the movable body that has moved to the effect position. Therefore, as described above, the second movable body 400 and the third movable bodies 500L and 500R below the first movable body 300 are moved so as not to protrude forward from the first movable body 300 at the production position. Thus, it is possible to prevent the visibility of the lower game area 10 from being lowered.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the front transmission plate 251 as a plate-shaped part was formed in the flat surface front surface, this invention is not limited to this, Non-flat surface shape (For example, It may be formed in a curved surface shape or a spherical shape.

(Modification 16)
Next, Modification 16 will be described with reference to FIG. 54A is a longitudinal sectional view showing a state in which the window unit of the modification 16 is located at the first viewing position, and FIG. 54B is a longitudinal section showing a state in which the window unit has moved to the second viewing position. FIG.

  In the above-described embodiment, the window unit 51 </ b> A has been illustrated in a form in which the cylindrical portion is provided so as to be immovable with the cylindrical portion protruding forward with respect to the opening / closing frame 50, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, like the first transmission body 250 of the window unit 51B of Modification 6, the front transmission plate 251 is substantially parallel to the rear transmission plate 261 at a position away from the rear transmission plate 261. The lower side portion between the first viewing position (see FIG. 54A) positioned in this manner and the second viewing position (see FIG. 54B) whose upper end is inclined forward with respect to the rear transmission plate 261. It may be provided so as to be able to turn around a turning shaft 280 provided in the left and right direction.

  In this case, the first transparent body 250, which is a part of the window unit 51B, is provided so as to protrude toward the player side from the first visual recognition position toward the second visual recognition position. It is difficult to understand that the body 250 has moved to the second viewing position. However, since the first movable body 300 moves forward in accordance with the movement of the first transmission body 250 to the second visual recognition position, it is easy to recognize that the first transmission body 250 has moved. More specifically, for example, when the tilt angle of the front transmission plate 251 changes, the incident angle of the light emitted from the movable body LED 350A to the front transmission plate 251 changes, and thereby the back surface of the front transmission plate 251 is changed. The amount of light reflected by the player increases and the front surface of the gaming area 10 behind is illuminated, and the amount of light emitted forward is reduced, thereby improving the visibility of the gaming area 10 from the player side.

  Moreover, since the 1st movable body 300 also returns to the back side according to the movement to the 1st visual recognition position from the 2nd visual recognition position of the 1st transmission body 250, the production effect improves. Further, the light reflected by the front transmission plate 251 also changes due to the change in the incident angle of the external light R with respect to the front transmission plate 251, so that the first movable body 300 and the game area 10 can be seen through the front transmission plate 251. By changing the aspect, it becomes easier to recognize that the first transmission body 250 has moved forward.

  Further, since the movable body jumps out to the player side together with the first transmission body 250, an impact can be given. Furthermore, since the lower side of the first transmission body 250 does not move, it is possible to avoid obstructing other parts (for example, throwing a game ball into the upper plate 90 below).

  In the modified example 16, as shown in FIG. 54, it is possible to execute a transmission member operation effect that moves only the first transmission body 250 to the player side, but in addition to this, the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260. It is also possible to execute a transmission member operation effect that causes both of them to be operated on the player side.

  For example, in the movable body effect setting process (S323A) of the modified example 16 shown in FIG. 55, the effect control CPU 120 changes the super reach B based on the change pattern indicated in the change pattern designation command from the main board 11. It is determined whether it is a pattern (S501). When it is determined that the variation pattern is the super reach B (S501; Yes), the type of frame motion effect is determined (S501A). For example, in the processing of S501A, the effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating the random number for determining the frame motion effect, and uses the extracted numerical data and the frame motion effect determination table shown in FIG. Thus, it is determined whether or not to execute the frame motion effect, and if so, the motion pattern.

  As shown in FIG. 55B, in the case of the super reach B (losing) variation pattern, the “one transmission member operation pattern (only the first transmission body 250 protrudes)” is determined with a probability of 70%. The transmission member operation pattern (the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 protrude) ”is determined with a probability of 30%. On the other hand, in the case of the super reach B (big hit) variation pattern, the “one transmission member operation pattern (only the first transmission body 250 protrudes)” is determined with a probability of 30%, and “both transmission member operation patterns ( The first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 protrude) ”is determined with a probability of 70%. In the case of the super reach B (big hit) variation pattern, the frame operation effect by both transmissive member operation patterns is easier to be executed than in the case of the super reach B (losing) variation pattern, and the frame operation by both transmissive member operation patterns. About the production, you can have a big hit expectation and the fun of the game will improve. Also, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) variation pattern, the one transmission member operation pattern is executed, and therefore the frame operation effect by the one transmission member operation pattern (only the first transmission body 250 protrudes) is expected to be a big hit. You can have a feeling and the fun of the game will improve.

  After S501A, the presence / absence and type of the movable body effect are determined (S502). For example, in the process of S502, the effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating the random number for determining the movable body effect, and uses the extracted numerical data and the movable object effect determination table shown in FIG. Thus, it is determined whether or not to execute the movable body effect and the operation pattern when it is executed.

  As shown in FIG. 55C, in the case of the super reach B (loss) variation pattern, “No execution” is 15%, “Execution” is “First operation pattern PTB-1 (only the first operation ACT1)” "Is determined with a probability of 55%, and" with execution "," second operation pattern PTB-2 (second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1) "is determined with a probability of 30%. On the other hand, in the case of the super reach B (big hit) variation pattern, “no execution” is 10%, “execution is” and “first operation pattern PTB-1 (only the first operation ACT1)” is 20%. The “second execution pattern PTB-2 (second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1)” is determined with a probability of 70%. In the case of a big hit, the movable body effect is easier to be executed than in the case of losing, and it is possible to have a big hit expectation for the movable body effect, thereby improving the interest of the game. Further, in the case of the super reach B (big hit) variation pattern, the movable body of the “second operation pattern PTB-2 (the second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1)” than the case of the super reach B (loss) variation pattern. The production is easy to be executed, and the first movable body 300 can have a big hit expectation with respect to the movable body production in which the second operation ACT2 shown in FIG. 33 is executed, and the entertainment of the game is improved. Also, in the case of the super reach B (big hit) variation pattern, since the “first operation pattern PTB-1 (only the first operation ACT1)” is executed, the first movable body 300 performs the first operation shown in FIG. The movable body effect that executes ACT1 can also have a big hit expectation, and the fun of the game is improved.

  Note that the movable body effect may be executed not only in the variation pattern of the super reach B but also in the variation pattern of the super reach A. The variation pattern of super reach may include a variation pattern having pseudo continuous variation. For example, regarding the determination of the movable body effect, a determination ratio may be set such that the degree of expectation increases as the number of pseudo continuous fluctuations increases. What is necessary is just to set so that a determination ratio may differ according to whether it is a big hit and the frequency | count of a pseudo | simulation variation.

  Returning to FIG. 55A, after S502, it is determined whether or not there is a movable body effect (S503). If it is determined that the movable body effect is present (S503; Yes), the movable body effect flag indicating that the movable body effect is executed is set to the ON state (S504). After S504, a movable body effect pattern corresponding to the type of movable body effect determined in S502 is set (S505). That is, the operation pattern PTB-1 or PTB-2 determined in S502 is set. If it is determined in S501 that the pattern is not a super reach variation pattern (S501; No), if there is no movable body effect in S503 (S503; No), or after S505, the movable body effect setting process is terminated. To do.

  In the modified example 16, it is possible to execute a transmission member operation effect that moves at least the first transmission body 250 to the player side, and the transmission member operation effect is executed, whereby the first movable body 300 is changed to the first transmission body. Since it can move between 250 and the 2nd permeation | transmission body 260, a powerful movable body effect can be provided with respect to a player. For this reason, the effect of production can be enhanced.

  Further, the transmission member operation effect is an effect in which only the first transmission body 250 is operated on the player side or an operation in which both the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 are operated on the player side. It is possible to provide a powerful transmission member operation effect for the player. For this reason, the effect of production can be enhanced.

  Further, as the transmission member operation effect, only the first transmission body 250 is operated on the player side, while the transmission member operation pattern, and both the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 are operated on the player side. There are both transmission member operation patterns, and on the other hand, since the transmission member operation pattern and both transmission member operation patterns have different expectation levels (for example, the big hit expectation level) controlled to be in an advantageous state, the player is in the transmission member operation effect. Can be watched. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  Further, the first movable body 300 is changed to the first transparent body 250 based on the execution of the transmission member motion effect and the detection of the player's movement by the motion detection means (for example, the controller sensor unit 35A, the push sensor 35B, etc.). It may be movable between the second transmissive body 260. In this case, the effect of production can be improved. Further, the player can participate in the game, and the interest of the game can be improved.

  In addition, the transmission member operation effect is executed and the first movable body 300 moves between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260, and the transmission member operation effect is executed and the first movable body 300 is moved. The second movement pattern in which the body 300 does not move between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 may be executable. In this case, the movable body effect can be varied, and the interest of the movable body effect can be improved. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved. In addition, since the degree of expectation controlled to the advantageous state is different between the first operation pattern and the second operation pattern, it is possible to make the player gaze at the movable body effect. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  Further, when the transmission member operation effect is executed, the game area side light emitting component (for example, the light emitting component (LED) of the center decorative frame 52, the light emitting component (LED) of the normal winning ball device 6A or the normal variable winning ball device 6B, the game, At least one of the light emitting components (LEDs) for causing at least a part of the surface of the panel 2 to emit light may be turned off or emit light with a lower luminance than when the transmission member operation effect is not executed. In this case, the transmission member operation effect can be conspicuous. For this reason, a player can be made to gaze at the transmission member operation effect. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  Further, when the transmission member operation effect is executed, the opening / closing door side light emitting component (the effect LED 9 of the opening / closing frame 50) is turned off or light is emitted with lower brightness than when the transmission member operation effect is not executed. Good. In this case, the transmission member operation effect can be conspicuous. For this reason, a player can be made to gaze at the transmission member operation effect. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  Further, when the transmission member operation effect is executed, the window side light emitting component of the window 51 may be turned on or lighted with a higher luminance than when the transmission member operation effect is not executed. In this case, the transmission member operation effect can be conspicuous. For this reason, a player can be made to gaze at the transmission member operation effect. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  In addition, detection means (for example, a position sensor for the first transmission body) that detects that the first transmission body 250 has moved to the player side is provided, and it is detected that the first transmission body 250 has moved to the player side. In such a case, the movement of the first movable body 300 between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 may be executed. In this case, a series of movable body effects in which the first movable body 300 moves between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260 after the first transparent body 250 is moved to the player side are appropriately used. Can be executed. For this reason, the effect of production can be improved. In addition, when the first transmission body 250 is not operating on the player side, the first movable body 300 does not move between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260, so the first transmission body 250 and the first transmission body 250 1 Damage to the movable body 300 can be prevented.

(Modification 17)
As in Modification 17 shown in FIG. 56, the open / close frame 50 (frame body) includes operable frame-side movable bodies SL and SR (frame-side movable means). The frame-side movable bodies SL and SR can be displaced by a frame-side movable body driving mechanism (not shown) into a non-projecting state indicated by a broken line in FIG. 57A and a protruding state indicated by a solid line in FIG. It has become. In addition, a frame-linked effect that operates the frame-side movable bodies SL and SR in association with the first movable body 300 entering between the first transmissive body 250 and the second transmissive body 260 (simply referred to as “linked performance”). May be executable). In this frame-linked effect, an effect of matching the timing at which the first movable body 300 enters between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260 and the timing at which the operations of the frame-side movable bodies SL, SR are started. It has become. That is, the first operation ACT2 of the first movable body 300 to the second position P2 and the operation in which the frame side movable bodies SL and SR are in the protruding state shown by the solid line in FIG. It is possible to provide a frame interlocking effect that is excellent in the interlocking feeling when the operation starts.

  For example, in the movable body effect setting process (S323A) of the modified example 17 shown in FIG. 58, the effect control CPU 120 changes the super reach B based on the change pattern indicated in the change pattern designation command from the main board 11. It is determined whether it is a pattern (S501). If it is determined that the variation pattern is the super reach B (S501; Yes), the presence / absence and type of the movable body effect is determined (S502). For example, in the process of S502, the effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating the random number for determining the movable body effect, and uses the extracted numerical data and the movable object effect determination table shown in FIG. Thus, it is determined whether or not to execute the movable body effect and the operation pattern when it is executed.

  As shown in FIG. 58 (B), in the case of the super reach B (loss) variation pattern, “no execution” is 15%, “execution is” and “first operation pattern PTB-1 (only the first operation ACT1)”. "Is determined with a probability of 55%, and" with execution "," second operation pattern PTB-2 (second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1) "is determined with a probability of 30%. On the other hand, in the case of the super reach B (big hit) variation pattern, “no execution” is 10%, “execution is” and “first operation pattern PTB-1 (only the first operation ACT1)” is 20%. The “second execution pattern PTB-2 (second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1)” is determined with a probability of 70%. In the case of a big hit, the movable body effect is easier to be executed than in the case of losing, and it is possible to have a big hit expectation for the movable body effect, thereby improving the interest of the game. Further, in the case of the super reach B (big hit) variation pattern, the movable body of the “second operation pattern PTB-2 (the second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1)” than the case of the super reach B (loss) variation pattern. The production is easy to be executed, and the first movable body 300 can have a big hit expectation with respect to the movable body production in which the second operation ACT2 shown in FIG. 33 is executed, and the entertainment of the game is improved. Also, in the case of the super reach B (big hit) variation pattern, since the “first operation pattern PTB-1 (only the first operation ACT1)” is executed, the first movable body 300 performs the first operation shown in FIG. The movable body effect that executes ACT1 can also have a big hit expectation, and the fun of the game is improved.

  Note that the movable body effect may be executed not only in the variation pattern of the super reach B but also in the variation pattern of the super reach A. The variation pattern of super reach may include a variation pattern having pseudo continuous variation. For example, regarding the determination of the movable body effect, a determination ratio may be set such that the degree of expectation increases as the number of pseudo continuous fluctuations increases. What is necessary is just to set so that a determination ratio may differ according to whether it is a big hit and the frequency | count of a pseudo | simulation variation.

  After S502, it is determined whether or not there is a movable body effect (S503). If it is determined that the movable body effect is present (S503; Yes), the movable body effect flag indicating that the movable body effect is executed is set to the ON state (S504).

  After S504, it is determined whether or not the second operation pattern PTB-2 has been determined (S504A). When the second operation pattern PTB-2 is determined (S504A; Yes), the type of the frame-side movable body effect that is the effect in which the frame-side movable bodies SL and SR operate is determined (S504B). For example, in the process of S504B, the effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating a random number for determining the frame-side movable body effect, and determines the extracted numerical data and the frame-side movable body effect determination shown in FIG. Using the table, it is determined whether or not to execute the frame-side movable body effect, and if it is executed, its operation pattern.

  As shown in FIG. 58 (C), in the case of the super reach B (loss) variation pattern, the “non-interlocking pattern (only the first movable body 300 operates)” is determined with an 80% probability, and the “interlocking pattern ( The first movable body 300 and the frame-side movable bodies SL and SR are linked) ”is determined with a probability of 20%. In contrast, in the case of the super reach B (big hit) variation pattern, the “non-interlocking pattern (only the first movable body 300 operates)” is determined with a probability of 20%, and the “interlocking pattern (first movable body 300) is determined. And the frame side movable bodies SL and SR are linked with each other) with a probability of 80%. In the case of the super reach B (big hit) variation pattern, the frame operation effect by the interlocking pattern is easier to be executed than in the case of the super reach B (losing) variation pattern, and the first movable body 300 and the frame side movable body SL. , SR can be linked to the production effect, you can have a big expectation, and the fun of the game is improved. In addition, even in the case of the super reach B (big hit) fluctuation pattern, it is possible to have a big hit expectation for the non-interlocking production in which only the first movable body 300 operates without the frame side movable bodies SL and SR operating. , The fun of gaming is improved.

  After S504B, a movable body effect pattern corresponding to the type of movable body effect determined in S502 is set (S505). That is, the operation pattern PTB-1 or PTB-2 determined in S502 is set. If it is determined in S501 that the pattern is not a super reach variation pattern (S501; No), if there is no movable body effect in S503 (S503; No), or after S505, the movable body effect setting process is terminated. To do.

  In Modification 17, it is possible to execute a frame-linked effect that operates the frame-side movable means of the frame in association with the first movable body 300 entering between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260. Therefore, a powerful frame-linked effect can be provided to the player. For this reason, the effect of production can be enhanced.

  Moreover, when the 1st movable body 300 approached between the 1st permeation | transmission body 250 and the 2nd permeation | transmission body 260, the interlocking pattern which operates a frame side movable means, and the non-interlocking pattern which does not operate a frame side movable means Since the frame interlocking effect can be varied, the interest of the frame interlocking effect can be improved. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  In addition, since the degree of expectation (for example, the big hit expectation degree) controlled to the advantageous state is different between the interlocking pattern and the non-interlocking pattern, the player can be watched at the frame interlocking effect. Thereby, the effect of production can be improved.

  In addition, since the timing when the first movable body 300 enters between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 is matched with the timing when the operation of the frame-side movable means is started, both operations are started. It is possible to provide a frame interlocking effect that is excellent in interlocking feeling. For this reason, the effect of production can be improved.

  Note that the timing for returning the first movable body 300 that has entered between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 may be matched with the timing for returning the frame-side movable means before the operation. In this case, it is possible to provide a frame interlocking effect that is excellent in the interlocking feeling when both operations are finished. For this reason, the effect of production can be improved.

  Further, in connection with the first movable body 300 entering between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260, at least a part of the frame operation means (for example, the hitting operation handle HB shown in FIG. 56). It may be possible to execute a frame-linked effect in which is operated. Here, as shown in FIG. 57 (B), at least a part of the hitting operation handle HB protrudes. The operation of the operation means may be at least one of vibration, swing, advance, retreat, and movement, for example, at least a part of the operation means (for example, the hitting operation handle HB shown in FIG. 56). . According to this, since the operation of the operation means is directly transmitted to the player, a more powerful frame-linked effect can be provided to the player. For this reason, the effect of production can be enhanced. The operation means is not limited to the hitting operation handle HB, but may be a stick controller 31A, a push button 31B, or the like.

  Further, the first movable body 300 is placed between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260 based on the detection of the player's motion by the motion detection means (for example, the controller sensor unit 35A, the push sensor 35B, etc.). It may be possible to enter. In this case, the effect of production can be improved. Further, the player can participate in the game, and the interest of the game can be improved.

(Modification 18)
As in Modification 18 shown in FIGS. 59A and 59B, the first movable body 300 is not positioned between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260, and the first transmission body 250. And the second transmission body 260 are different in size. For example, in the first movable body 300, the upper portion of the first movable body 300 can be advanced upward, and the lower portion of the first movable body 300 can be advanced downward, and can be expanded vertically. It is what. Specifically, when the first movable body 300 is not located between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260, for example, at the first position P1, the hole 270 of the second transmission body 260 (FIG. 6). The vertical length LW is smaller than the opening diameter (the vertical length LY of the opening) of the hole 270) formed in the rear transmission plate 261 shown in FIG. When the length of the hole 270 is between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260, the opening diameter of the hole 270 (the opening diameter of the opening 270) The longitudinal length LZ is greater than the longitudinal length LY). For example, the first movable body 300 extends in the longitudinal direction to the length LZ after exiting from the hole 270. When the first movable body 300 is not located between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260, the first movable body 300 may be moved from the first position P1 to the second position P2 at a constant speed. The speed may gradually increase until entering the portion 270, and after entering the hole portion 270, it may be moved at a higher speed.

  According to the modified example 18, when the size of the first movable body 300 is not located between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260, and between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260, Since it differs depending on whether it is located in between, the movable body effect can be improved. In particular, when the first movable body 300 is not positioned between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260, the first movable body 300 is smaller than the opening diameter of the hole 270, but the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260. Is larger than the opening diameter of the hole 270, the first movable body 300 that has become larger on the player side can be shown, and a more powerful movable body effect can be provided. it can.

(Modification 19)
60, the first movable body 300 is small when entering the hole 270 of the second transmission body 260, and the first transmission body 250, the second transmission body 260, and the like. The size is larger than that of the hole 270 both when it is not located between the first transmissive body 250 and when it is located between the first transmissive body 250 and the second transmissive body 260. For example, when the first movable body 300 is not positioned between the first transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 (for example, at the first position P1), the longitudinal length is LZ, The length in the vertical direction when positioned between the transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 (for example, when in the second position P2) is also LZ, and both are larger than the hole portion 270 (hole portion). The opening diameter of 270 (which is larger than the longitudinal length LY of the opening) If the first movable body 300 is larger than the hole 270, the first position P1 and the second position P2 are the same. It does not have to be size.

  According to the modification 19, the first movable body 300, which is larger than the opening diameter of the hole 270, temporarily becomes smaller than the opening diameter of the hole 270, passes through the hole 270, and reaches the second position P2. Since it becomes larger than the opening diameter of the hole portion 270, it is possible to provide a movable body effect that is surprising in change. For this reason, a movable body effect can be improved.

  In the modification 18 and the modification 19, the first movable body 300 is expanded in the vertical direction. However, the first movable body 300 may be expanded or deformed in at least one of the vertical, horizontal, and diagonal directions. Good. The first movable body 300 is configured such that at least a part of the first movable body 300 can rotate about the advance direction as a rotation axis. When the first movable body 300 rotates clockwise, the outer peripheral side is expanded by the clockwise rotation (for example, the first movable body 300). 1) When the blade portion of the movable body 300 is advanced in the radial direction or the circumferential direction, and the like, and rotating counterclockwise, the outer peripheral side is reduced by the counterclockwise rotation (for example, the first The blades of the movable body 300 may be housed in the direction of the center of rotation or the circumferential direction).

  In addition, as described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the window 51 for visually recognizing the game area 10, the effect display devices 5X and 5Y provided operably, and the effect display device 5X. , 5Y for controlling the display 120, the window 51 is disposed closer to the game area 10 than the first transmission body 250 and the first transmission body 250, and a hole 270 is formed. The effect control CPU 120 includes the effect display devices 5X and 5Y in a standby state at a position on the back side of the rear transmission plate 261, and a predetermined portion of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y is rearward. It is possible to execute the third control that moves the front side through the hole 270 of the transmission plate 261 until the front transmission plate 251 is positioned on the front transmission plate 251 side.

  By doing in this way, it is possible to move the predetermined part of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y until it is located closer to the first transmission body 250 than the rear transmission plate 261 of the second transmission body 260. Since an impact can be given to a person, the effect of production can be improved.

  In addition, the effect display devices 5X and 5Y can move to a position closer to the front transmission plate 251 than the rear transmission plate 261 while the display unit is slightly inclined so as to face the center. By doing in this way, the movement of the effect display apparatuses 5X and 5Y can be shown suitably.

  In addition, after executing the third control, the effect control CPU 120 moves the effect display devices 5X and 5Y in a direction (left-right direction) intersecting the movement direction (front-rear direction) in the third control. Control can be performed. By doing in this way, the display content of a display part can be visually recognized other than a player.

  Further, as described above, the rear transmission plate 261 is disposed to face the front side of the board surface plate 200 so that the game ball can flow down between the game board surface 200A and the game ball between the game board surface 200A. Therefore, the hole 270 is formed at a position corresponding to an effect area (opening 2c formed in the board 200) that does not correspond to the flow area of the game ball in the game area 10. That is, since it is necessary to secure a flow-down area of the game ball, there is a limit to enlarge the hole 270, and in order to allow the effect display devices 5X and 5Y to pass through the hole 270, the effect display devices 5X, 5Y cannot be made larger than the hole 270.

  Therefore, like the present invention, after performing the third control for moving the effect display devices 5X and 5Y to the front side, at least part of the predetermined portion of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y (the whole in the present embodiment) By performing the fourth control to move in the direction (left-right direction) different from the moving direction (front direction) in the first control on the front side of the second transmission body 260, without increasing the hole 270 more than necessary, Moreover, since the display portion of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y can be shown at a position closer to the player in front of the rear transmission plate 261, a more powerful effect can be provided to the player.

  In addition, in order to move the left and right effect display devices 5X and 5Y to the front side through the hole 270, the hole 270 is passed through the hole 270 after being moved toward the center once, so that the hole 270 is made larger than necessary. Without being able to pass through the effect display devices 5X and 5Y. Then, after passing through the hole 270, the effect display devices 5X and 5Y can be further moved in the left-right direction, so that the desired position (for example, the center effect display is not limited to the position of the hole 270). The image displayed on the display unit can be shown at a position where the visual recognition of the device 5A is not hindered or concealed. In addition, after the movement, the effect display device 5A is located behind the effect display devices 5X and 5Y, so that a sense of depth can be generated.

  In addition, since the display unit of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y is arranged in front of the game area 10 by executing the third control, for example, not only notification of left-handed or right-handed but also provided at a predetermined position. A notification image or the like for launching the game ball toward the winning area can be displayed from the front side of the game area 10 and near the target location.

  Further, the rail member (not shown) for guiding the movement of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y is produced when the standby state changes from the standby state to the first operation state and when the first operation state changes to the second operation state. It functions as a contact prevention means for preventing contact between the display devices 5X and 5Y and the rear transmission plate 261. By doing in this way, it can prevent that the production | presentation display apparatuses 5X and 5Y and the rear transmission board 261 of the 2nd transmission body 260 contact, and are damaged.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the form which applied the effect display apparatuses 5X and 5Y supplementarily provided in the side of the effect display apparatus 5A in which the change display of an effect symbol is possible was illustrated as an example of a display apparatus, The present invention is not limited to this, and the display device may target the effect display device 5A, or an effect display device (for example, movable) provided separately from the effect display devices 5A, 5X, and 5Y. Or a display device mounted on a body or the like. Moreover, not only the display device for effects connected to the effect control board 12 in this way, the first special symbol display 4A, the second special symbol display 4B, the normal symbol display 20, the first hold display 25A. Various display devices connected to the main board 11 such as the second hold indicator 25B and the general-purpose hold indicator 25C may be used.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the presentation display apparatuses 5X and 5Y illustrated the form which moves to the front side rather than the back transmissive plate 261 in 3rd control, this invention is not limited to this, For example, The display mode of the display screen is changed according to the movement of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y (for example, the image is enlarged according to the forward movement of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y, and the symbols and characters are changed. By performing display control (such as moving or changing the background color), it is possible to improve the rendering effect by moving the display device and changing the display image.

  Further, in the embodiment, when the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are changed to the first operation state, the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are positioned in front of the rear transmission plate 261. The present invention is not limited to this, and only a predetermined portion (for example, a display portion) of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y may be positioned in front of the rear transmission plate 261.

  In the above-described embodiment, in the fourth control, the display devices 5X and 5Y are moved in the left-right direction, and then the display unit is rotated so as to face outward. The display unit of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y may be rotated so as to be along the front transmission plate 251. By doing so, the display unit is made more on the player side. It becomes possible to approach.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the presentation display apparatuses 5X and 5Y illustrated the form provided so that it was movable substantially parallel to the front-back, left-right direction, this invention is not limited to this, 3rd control In this case, it may be moved so as to incline upward or downward in the front-rear direction. Further, in the fourth control, it may be moved upward or downward.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the form which only the effect display apparatuses 5X and 5Y moved to the front side rather than the back transmissive board 261 was illustrated, this invention is not limited to this, The effect display apparatus 5A and others The display device may be moved to the front side of the rear transmission plate 261.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the presentation display apparatuses 5X and 5Y as a movable body illustrated the form provided in the back side of the game board 2 in the non-operating state, this invention is limited to this. Instead, it may be provided in front of the game board surface 200A of the board board 200.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, the effect display apparatuses 5X and 5Y illustrated the form arrange | positioned in the position corresponding to the flow-down area | region of the game ball in the game area 10 when it sees from the front after execution of 4th control. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and after performing the fourth control, when viewed from the front, other than the position corresponding to the flow area of the game ball in the game area 10 (position corresponding to the effect area), That is, it is preferable to move the effect display devices 5X and 5Y within an area corresponding to the hole 270.

  In addition, as described above with reference to the movable body as an example in FIG. 22, for example, an operation error occurs during the operation of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y, that is, during the execution of the third control or the fourth control. Or the like, and the opening / closing frame 50 can be opened without touching the rear transmission plate 261, so that the rear transmission plate 261 and the effect display device can be opened. It is possible to prevent 5X and 5Y from being damaged.

  In the above embodiment, since the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are moved in the region corresponding to the hole 270, the opening and closing frame 50 can be opened without contacting the rear transmission plate 261. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it is sufficient that the opening / closing frame 50 is not in contact with the second transmission body when the opening / closing frame 50 is opened / closed.

  For example, a door opening detection switch (not shown) for detecting the opening of the opening / closing frame 50 is connected to the main board 11 and the main board 11 detects the opening of the opening / closing frame 50 by the door opening detection switch. Based on this, a door open instruction command indicating that the opening / closing frame 50 has been opened is transmitted to the effect control board 12. Then, the effect control CPU 120 performs control to move the effect display devices 5X and 5Y to the standby position when the door opening designation command is received while the third control or the fourth control is being executed. Good.

  According to this, for example, when the third control and the fourth control of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are executed, an operation abnormality of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y occurs, and the effect display devices 5X and 5Y Even if it becomes necessary to perform maintenance by opening the opening / closing frame 50, such as when it becomes stuck on the front side of the rear transmission plate 261 or a ball is clogged in the game area 10, the opening / closing frame 50 is Since the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are retracted toward a position where the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are not in contact with the rear transmission plate 261 (for example, a standby position) when they are opened, the rear transmission plate 261 and the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are prevented from being damaged. it can.

  Further, when the open / close frame 50 is opened, even if a game ball staying in a daisy chain is dropped due to the clogging of the balls, the third control causes the front side of the rear transmission plate 261, that is, the front side of the game area 10. The effect display devices 5X and 5Y that have moved retreat to the standby position side, so that it is possible to avoid the dropped game balls from colliding with the effect display devices 5X and 5Y, and therefore the effect display devices 5X due to the collision with the game balls. , 5Y can be prevented from being damaged, or a game ball can be prevented from jumping due to a collision with the effect display devices 5X, 5Y and entering the back side of the board plate 200 through the opening 2c of the board board 200.

  Further, the effect control CPU 120 issues a door opening designation command when executing the first control or the second control of the first movable body 300 or the third control or the fourth control of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y. When received, not only the first movable body 300 and the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are moved to the standby position, but the effect display being executed is interrupted, and at least the first movable body 300 and the effect display devices 5X and 5Y Until it moves to the rear side of the rear transmission plate 261, a notification (for example, “Please do not open the opening and closing frame”) is output or a message is displayed on the effect display devices 5X and 5Y. Or display it).

  In addition, a lock mechanism or the like for locking the open / close frame 50 in the closed state is provided, and the effect control CPU 120 performs the first control or the second control of the first movable body 300 or the third control of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y. When the door opening instruction command is received while the fourth control is being executed, the opening / closing frame 50 may be restricted by being locked by a lock mechanism.

  Further, a history that the movable body has stopped by opening the opening / closing frame 50 may be left. Moreover, you may make it alert | report that the opening-and-closing frame 50 was open | released during operation | movement of a movable body. According to these, it is possible to notify the amusement store side of the possibility that there has been a failure of the movable body or an illegal act.

  Further, in the case of a movable body having a stop prohibition range in the operation range of the movable body, even when the movable body is in the stop prohibition range, the movable body is operated up to the stoppable range even if the opening / closing frame 50 is provided. May be. In addition, a motor-driven movable body and a spring-biased movable body are provided. When the open / close frame 50 is opened, the motor-driven movable body is stopped, but the spring-biased movable body is operated. It may not be stopped.

  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 the present invention can be changed or added without departing from the scope of the present invention. include.

  For example, in the above-described embodiment, the pachinko gaming machine 1 is illustrated as an example of the gaming machine, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a gaming ball with a predetermined number of balls is a gaming machine. The number of loaned balls encapsulated inside and lent out in response to a player's loan request and the number of prize balls awarded in response to winnings are added, while the number of game balls used in the game is subtracted The present invention is also applicable to so-called enclosed game machines that are stored in memory. In these enclosed game machines, not the game ball but points and points are given to the player, so these points and points assigned correspond to the game value.

  In the above embodiment, a spherical game ball (pachinko ball) is applied as an example of the game medium. However, the present invention is not limited to the spherical game medium, and for example, a non-spherical game such as a medal. It may be a medium.

  In the above embodiment, a pachinko gaming machine is applied as an example of a gaming machine. However, for example, a game can be started by setting a predetermined number of bets for one game using a gaming value. At the same time, one game is completed by deriving a variation display result to a variation display device capable of variably displaying a plurality of types of symbols that can be identified, and according to the variation display result derived to the variation display device. The present invention can also be applied to a slot machine in which a winning can be generated.

  In the case of a slot machine, the game area of the present invention corresponds to, for example, a variable display area in which a variable display of symbols is executed by a variable display device such as a reel. In addition, the display device of the present invention corresponds to the above-described variable display device (for example, a reel or a liquid crystal display).

  In the embodiment, the example in which the controller sensor unit 35A and the push sensor 35B are used as the detection unit has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a non-contact detection unit such as an infrared sensor or a contact detection unit such as a touch panel is used. It may be provided to detect the player's action.

  The variable display of the identification information (special drawing, effect design, general drawing, etc.) includes that the identification information blinks. For example, in the special figure, a pattern in which all the segments are turned off and one pattern in which at least some of the segments are turned on (for example, a lost pattern) are alternately included in the variable display.
