ところが、従来の構成では、遊技球の排出構成に改善の余地があった。
However, with the conventional configuration, there is room for improvement in the game ball discharge configuration.

そこで、本発明は、遊技球の排出構成を新規な態様にした遊技機を提供することを目的とする。
In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to provide a gaming machine having a novel configuration of the gaming ball discharge .

上述した目的を達成するために、本発明の遊技機は、所定の球タンクに貯留した遊技球を用いて賞球を払い出すことが可能な遊技機において、
賞球を払い出す際に用いられる賞球通路と、
遊技機裏面側の排出口から遊技機外に遊技球を排出する際に用いられる排出通路と、
前記球タンクから流下する遊技球を、前記賞球通路と前記排出通路の何れに流下させるか切り換える切換片と、を備え、
前記切換片は、前記排出通路への球流下を制限するとともに前記賞球通路への球流下を許容する通常状態と、
前記賞球通路への球流下を制限するとともに前記排出通路への球流下を許容する球抜状態と、に変化可能であり、
前記切換片が前記通常状態にあるときは、前記球タンクから流下した遊技球が前記切換片に衝突して、当該遊技球が前記賞球通路側に誘導されうるものであり、
さらに、前記切換片が前記通常状態にあるときは、前記排出通路への球流下が制限されつつも、遊技球の径よりも小さい連通領域によって前記切換片の上流側の球通路と前記排出通路とが連通するように構成されてなる
ことを特徴とする。
In order to achieve the above-described object, the gaming machine of the present invention is a gaming machine capable of paying out a prize ball using a gaming ball stored in a predetermined ball tank.
A prize ball passage used when paying out a prize ball;
A discharge passage used to discharge the game ball from the discharge port on the back side of the game machine to the outside of the game machine;
A switching piece for switching whether the game ball flowing down from the ball tank is allowed to flow down into the prize ball passage or the discharge passage,
The switching piece restricts the ball flow down to the discharge passage and allows the ball flow down to the prize ball passage;
It is possible to change to a ball extraction state that restricts the ball flow down to the prize ball passage and allows the ball flow down to the discharge passage.
When the switching piece is in the normal state, the game ball flowing down from the ball tank collides with the switching piece, and the gaming ball can be guided to the prize ball passage side,
Further, when the switching piece is in the normal state, the ball passage on the upstream side of the switching piece and the discharge passage are restricted by a communication area smaller than the diameter of the game ball while the ball flow down to the discharge passage is restricted. And are configured to communicate with each other.

本発明に係る遊技機によれば、遊技球の排出構成を新規な態様にした遊技機を提供することができる。

According to the gaming machine according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a gaming machine having a novel configuration of the gaming ball discharge configuration .
