The main control board 80 has a main control CPU (main control means, control means) 80a capable of executing control operations in a predetermined procedure, a main control ROM 80b storing a control program of the main control CPU 80a, and writing of necessary data. And a read-out main control RAM 80c.

  The main control board 80 updates the values of various random numbers such as a random number for big hit determination, a random number for symbol determination, a random number for variation pattern distribution, and a random number for common determination per predetermined cycle, and updates the updated value. By storing (setting) in the setting area of the main control RAM 80c, the value before updating is rewritten, and the random number updating process (random number generation process) is executed. For example, in the main control board 80, when a detection signal is inputted from the start winning detection sensors 29, 30, the main control CPU 80a acquires a big hit determination random number from the main control ROM 80b, and this big hit determination random number and the main control ROM 80b. The jackpot is compared with the jackpot judgment value stored in the " and a jackpot judgment (lottery drawing) is performed to determine whether or not the jackpot is to be made a jackpot. Further, in the main control board 80, when the result of the big hit determination is positive, the variation pattern for the big hit derivation effect is determined from the change pattern table including only the big hit derivation effect such as reach effect for deriving the result of the big hit. . On the other hand, when the result of the big hit judgment is negative, the fluctuation pattern for out-of-order effect is determined from the fluctuation pattern table including only the out-of-out effect. The determination of the variation pattern for the big hit derivation effect and the off effect effect is performed by the random number acquired from the main control ROM 80 b by the main control CPU 80 a as in the case of the above-mentioned big hit determination. In addition, the fluctuation pattern of the big hit derivation effect and the offender effect determined from the fluctuation pattern table specifies at least the time of the big hit determination (design fluctuation time) and the contents of the effect. Then, in the pachinko machine 10, the display control board 82 causes the display device 17 to perform predetermined effect display based on the control signal of the presentation control board 81 output according to the result of the big hit determination of the main control board 80. A predetermined number of award balls are paid out by a ball payout device (not shown) based on a control signal related to the ball payout outputted by the control of the main control board 80. In the pachinko machine 10, the movable body 54 or the base member 41 of the movable effect device M is operated based on the control signal of the effect control board 81, the lamp device 18 or the various light emitters 63a is made to emit light, the speaker 19 Configured to output sound from

  Further, in the main control board 80, when the detection signal is input from the passing ball detection sensor 33a, the main control CPU 80a acquires the random number per common drawing determination from the main control ROM 80b, and the common random number per judgment common number The determination value per common drawing is stored in the control ROM 80b and compared with the determination value per common drawing to determine whether or not per common drawing (lottery per common drawing). Then, if the determination in the general drawing hit is affirmative, the start winning combination solenoid 28 is controlled to open and close the start opening / closing member 26b in a predetermined opening / closing pattern. The open / close pattern of the start opening / closing member 26b is different depending on whether the gaming state at the time of making the determination per common drawing, that is, whether the variable short state (described later) is provided.

  That is, the main control CPU 80a has a function as random number acquisition means for acquiring various random numbers triggered by winning on the start winning opening 25a, 26a, and at the start of the symbol variation effect, the random numbers acquired by the random number acquisition means A function as a hit judging means for making a hit judgment whether or not a hit game (big hit game) is given by judging whether the value matches a predetermined hit judgment value (big hit judgment value) or not Is equipped. In the case of a big hit game that is executed when the big hit determination is positive (hit), giving the player a chance to gain many winning balls by opening the special winning device 27 under a predetermined opening condition. This big hit game is a reward to the player. That is, in the embodiment, the main control CPU 80a has a function as a benefit determination unit that determines whether or not to award a benefit to the player triggered by a winning on the start-up winning unit. In addition, it is set that the pachinko ball is won in the starting winning opening 25a, 26a as the satisfaction of the starting condition, and the main control CPU 80a as a judging means hits and judges when the starting condition is met. .

(About effect control board 81)
The effect control board 81 is provided with an effect control CPU (sub control means, control means) 81a.

Further, the effect control CPU 81a updates the values of various random numbers such as the executability determination random number and the operation effect pattern determination random number for each predetermined cycle, and stores (sets) the updated value in the setting area of the effect control RAM 81c. And the previous value has been rewritten. Further, the effect control program for totally controlling the display control board 82, the lamp control board 83 and the sound control board 84 is stored in the effect control ROM 81b. Upon input of various control commands, the effect control CPU 81a executes various controls based on the effect control program. For example, in the effect control board 81, when the variation pattern designation command is input from the main control CPU 80a, the effect control CPU 81a acquires the executability determination random number from the effect control ROM 81b, and the executability determination random number and the effect control ROM 81b. The executability determination value stored in is compared with the executability determination value, and the executability determination as to whether or not to execute the movable object effect is performed. Further, in the effect control board 81, when the result of the executability determination is affirmative, one operation effect pattern to be executed by the movable effect device M is determined as described later, and a display effect corresponding to the operation effect pattern is determined. The display effect command of the pattern is output to the display control board 82.

(About the bonus gaming state)
The pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment is provided with a function of providing a first bonus game state as a game state (a bonus) advantageous to the player after the end of the big hit game. Here, as the first bonus game state, the winning opportunity of the pachinko ball to the special winning opening 27a is a state where it increases compared to the state where the first bonus game state is not provided. Specifically, in the first bonus game state, it is possible to increase the winning opportunity of the pachinko ball to the special winning opening 27a by changing the jackpot probability from the low probability to the high probability. In the following description, the first bonus game state is referred to as a "probable change state" for the sake of convenience.

  The probability change function of the present embodiment is low on the probability of winning the big hit after the end of the big hit game, provided that the type of the big hit symbol displayed on the display device 17 is a fixed probability symbol that has been determined and stopped. It is a function that gives a probability change state that changes from probability to high probability. Note that a state in which a definite change state is not given is referred to as a non-positive change state. In the embodiment, the big hit to which the positive change state is given after the big hit game is the positive change big hit, and the big hit to which the positive change state is not given is the non positive change big hit. Further, in the embodiment, in the case of the big hit where the definite change state is given, the positive change state is given continuously until the next big hit is generated after the big hit game is over. As described above, when the probability change state is given, the probability of drawing the jackpot changes to a high probability and the jackpot is likely to be generated, so that the probability change state is advantageous for the player and the player becomes the probability change jackpot. We are playing games while expecting. In addition, as a period when a definite change state is provided, it is not restricted to said thing. For example, the definite change state may be continuously applied while the definite change state is applied and until the predetermined condition is satisfied, and the transition to the non-positive change state may be performed on the condition that the predetermined condition is satisfied. Here, as the predetermined condition, it may be the number of times of fluctuation of the symbol fluctuation effect after the probability change state is given. In addition, based on the random numbers acquired on the occasion of the pachinko ball's winning to the start winning opening 25a, 26a to determine whether to shift to a non-deterministic state for each symbol variation effect (fall lottery) to win the fall lottery It is also possible to make the transition to the non-deterministic state under the condition of

  In addition, the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment has a function of providing a second bonus gaming state (a bonus) as a gaming state advantageous to the player after the big hit game is over. Here, as the second bonus game state, the winning opportunity of the pachinko ball to the second start winning opening 26a is a state where it increases compared to the state where the second bonus game state is not provided. Specifically, in the second bonus game state, (1) is executed when the pachinko ball passes through the ball passing gate 33 (more specifically, the passing ball detection sensor 33a detects the pachinko ball) Shortening the fluctuation time of the common drawing fluctuation display, (2) changing the probability per common drawing from low probability to high probability, (3) the opening / closing member 26b for opening the second starting winning opening 26a for one time per common drawing By increasing the open time of the ball, it is possible to increase the winning opportunity of the pachinko ball to the second start winning opening 26a. In the second bonus game state, the above (1) to (3) can be used alone or in combination. When increasing the opening time of the start opening / closing member 26b for opening the second start winning opening 26a per one common drawing, the opening time of the start opening / closing member 26b may be realized simply by extending it. Alternatively, it can be realized by increasing the number of times of opening / closing member 26b for start, or these may be combined. In the embodiment, the above (1) to (3) are combined as the second bonus game state, and in the following description, the state in which these (1) to (3) are combined is referred to as "variation state It shall be said.

  Here, in the embodiment, the period (the number of times of variation) in which the variation state is given is changed according to the type of the big hit symbol determined when the big hit is won. Specifically, when the type of the big hit symbol is a predetermined odd symbol, it is set to be given a variable state until the next big hit is generated, and the type of the big hit symbol is predetermined In the case of a non-probable variation symbol, it is set that a variation state is given until a predetermined number of symbol variation effects are executed. In the present embodiment, the variable state is a state in which the winning rate is improved.

  The definite variation state and the variation state are determined by the type of jackpot symbol drawn when affirmed in the jackpot determination executed by the main control CPU 80a triggered by the winning of the start winning opening 25a, 26a. That is, the main control CPU 80a functions as a means for giving a probability change state in which the probability of occurrence of a big hit (probability that the judgment result of the big hit judgment is positive) is higher than usual and gives the probability change state. It functions as a probability variation determination means for determining whether or not Further, when a big hit occurs (when the determination result of the big hit determination is positive (hit)), the main control CPU 80a has a high probability that the probability that the pachinko ball will win the second starting winning opening 26a is high probability ( It functions as a means for providing a winning rate improvement state), and also functions as a variable state determination means (a winning rate improvement state determination means) that determines whether or not to apply the variation state. Note that both the definite change state and the change state are benefits that may be given to the player triggered by the winning of the start winning means as in the big hit game.

(About movable body production)
The pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment is configured to be able to execute a movable body effect by the movable effect device M, which suggests that a big hit game (hit game) may be given after the end of the symbol variation effect. .

In addition, the reliability with which the big hit game is awarded is the appearance rate when the big hit game (hit game) is awarded and the overall appearance rate which is the sum of the occurrence rate when the big hit game is not given (becomes off) , Indicates the ratio of the appearance rate when a big hit game is awarded. That is, the reliability with which the big hit game is awarded is higher as the ratio of the occurrence rate when the big hit game is awarded to the overall appearance rate is higher. And the appearance rate for setting the reliability to which the big hit game is granted can be specified by the distribution mode (number of distribution) of the judgment value for the operation effect pattern lottery that is distributed for each operation effect pattern .

  Here, in the effect control CPU 81a, in the embodiment, a total of 101 integer values of "0" to "100" are set as random numbers for operation effect pattern determination used for lottery of operation effect patterns, and predetermined values It is updated one by one in a cycle (4 ms). In addition, the effect control ROM 81b stores a determination value for the operation effect pattern lottery used for drawing the operation effect pattern, and the determination value for the operation effect pattern selection is “0” which can be taken by the random number for the operation effect pattern determination. A predetermined number of determination values out of all the integers of 101 up to "100" are defined in each operation presentation pattern. Further, the distribution of the determination value for operation effect pattern lottery is set to be different depending on whether the result of the big hit determination is positive (hit) or negative (off). FIG. 18 shows the operation effect pattern distribution lottery table T1 when the result of the big hit determination is affirmative (hit), and the operation effect pattern distribution lottery table T2 when the result of the big hit determination is negative (off), In each of the distribution lottery tables T1 and T2, by distributing 101 determination values for the operation effect pattern lottery to each operation effect pattern, the reliability with which the big hit game of each operation effect pattern is provided is as described above. It comes to be prescribed.

  That is, in the operation effect pattern distribution lottery table T1, the 55 operation effect pattern lottery determination values of “0” to “54” are allocated to the fifth operation effect pattern P5, and “55” for the fourth operation effect pattern P4. The determination values for 16 motion effect pattern lotterys of “70” are distributed, and the determination values for 12 operation performance patterns lottery of “71” to “82” are allocated to the third operation effect pattern P3. Ten motion demonstration pattern lottery determination values from "83" to "92" are assigned to the motion drama pattern P2, and eight motion demonstration patterns for "93" to "100" are distributed to the first motion drama pattern P1. Judgment values are assigned.

  On the other hand, in the operation effect pattern distribution lottery table T2, four operation effect pattern lottery determination values of “0” to “3” are allocated to the fifth operation effect pattern P5, and “4th operation effect pattern P4” The determination values for eight operation effect pattern lottery of 5 "to" 12 "are assigned, and the determination values for 12 operation effect pattern lottery of" 13 "to" 24 "are assigned to the third operation effect pattern P3. In the second motion effect pattern P2, the twenty-four judgment values for the motion effect pattern lottery for “25” to “48” are assigned, and for the first motion effect pattern P1, 52 motion effects patterns for “49” to “100” The lottery determination values are assigned.

The second specific image 86 is, for example, the second specific image in which a fan is torn off in accordance with a third operation in which the first specific image 86 being displayed is moved and displayed on the display unit 17a and the movable body 54 changes from the second position The image 87 (see FIG. 15) is set to be displayed. In the embodiment, when the movable body 54 performs the third operation, the first specific image 86 is also displayed on the display unit 17a.

  That is, the effect control CPU 81a controls the drive motors 48 and 69 based on the determined operation effect pattern, and functions as drive control means for causing the movable body 54 to perform the operation effect specified by the operation effect pattern. Have. Further, by outputting a display effect pattern designation command corresponding to the determined operation effect pattern to the display control CPU 82a, the effect control CPU 81a that controls the display device 17 via the display control CPU 82a is of the movable body 54. It has a function as a display control unit that controls the display device (display unit) 17 to display different images on the display unit 17a according to the type of operation (operation effect patterns P1 to P5). Then, when the movable body 54 executes the first operation (the first operation effect pattern P1 and the third operation effect pattern P3), the effect control CPU 81a as the display control means decorates the periphery of the movable body 54. The display device 17 is controlled to display the decoration image 85 on the display unit 17a. Further, when the movable body 54 executes the first operation (the first operation effect pattern P1 and the third operation effect pattern P3), the effect control CPU 81a as the display control means relates to the operation of the movable body 54. The display device 17 is controlled to display an image on the entire display unit 17a. On the other hand, when the movable body 54 executes the second operation (the second operation effect pattern P2 and the fourth operation effect pattern P4), the effect control CPU 81a as the display control means changes the movable object 54. The display device 17 is controlled to display the first specific image 86 corresponding to the portion (the portion where the movable portion 56 advances and retracts) on the display unit 17a. That is, when the movable body 54 performs the first operation, the image related to the first operation is displayed on the entire display unit 17a, whereas the movable body 54 performs the second operation. Is configured to display an image associated with the second operation in an area corresponding to the portion where the movable body 54 in the display unit 17a has changed. In other words, in the case where the movable body 54 executes the first operation and the case in which the second operation is performed, the effect control CPU 81a as the display control means relates to the images having different display areas in relation to each operation. The display device 17 is controlled to be displayed on the display unit 17a. Note that "the display area is different" means that one image is displayed in the entire area of the display unit 17a as in the embodiment, while the other image is displayed only in a partial area of the display unit 17a. The display area of one image does not overlap the display area of the other image, or the display area of both images overlap (a part of the area in which the image is displayed is (Including different).

  Further, when the movable body 54 executes the third operation (fifth operation performance pattern P5), the effect control CPU 81a as the display control means relates to the third operation of the movable body 54 when the third operation (the fifth operation effect pattern P5) is performed. The display device 17 is controlled to display a second specific image 87 different from the one specific image 86 on the display unit 17a.

[Operation of Example]
Next, the operation of the pachinko machine according to the embodiment described above will be described.

  When the player rotates the operation lever 16a of the operation handle 16 provided on the front side of the front frame 13, a pachinko ball fired from the ball striking device is launched into the gaming area 21 of the gaming board 20. . The pachinko ball hit into the game area 21 flows down the outer periphery of the frame-shaped decorative body 24, and when the pachinko ball wins the first start winning portion 25 (first start winning hole 25a), A detection signal from the one start winning detection sensor 29 is input to the main control CPU 80a, and the main control CPU 80a reads the value of the big hit determination random number from the main control ROM 80b and stores it in a predetermined storage area of the main control RAM 80c. Then, before the start of the symbol variation game, the main control CPU 80a compares the value of the big hit determination random number stored in the main control RAM 80c with the big hit determination value stored in the main control ROM 80b to determine whether it is a big hit or not Perform a big hit judgment (hit judgment).

  The main control CPU 80a determines a big hit if the determination result of the big hit determination is affirmative (the value of the big hit determination random number and the big hit determination value match). The main control CPU 80a that has determined the big hit reads the random number for symbol determination from the main control RAM 80c, decides the symbol associated in advance with the value as the big hit symbol, and stores the information indicating the determined symbol type in the main control RAM 80c Do. Then, the main control CPU 80a determines the variation pattern for the big hit derivation effect according to the type of symbol, and the control command corresponding to the determined variation pattern for the big hit derivation effect at a predetermined timing, the production control board 81 (effect control Output to the CPU 81a). Further, when the determination result of the big hit determination is negative (the value of the big hit determination random number and the big hit determination value do not match), the main control CPU 80a determines the out-of-range and determines the selected variation pattern for out-of-out effect The control command corresponding to the determined fluctuation pattern for out-of-place effect is output to the effect control board 81 (effect control CPU 81a) at a predetermined timing.

  When the effect control CPU 81a inputs a fluctuation pattern designation command corresponding to a fluctuation pattern for a big hit derivation effect or a fluctuation pattern for an offcoming effect, the effect control CPU 81a determines whether or not to execute the movable body effect by the movable effect device M Determine whether to perform body effects. That is, the effect control CPU 81a acquires the random number for executability determination when the variation pattern designation command is input, and also uses the value of the acquired executability determination random number for the movable object effect executability determination. Whether or not to execute the movable object effect is determined in comparison with the executability determination value set in the table.

  The effect control CPU 81a determines one operation effect pattern from among a plurality of types of operation effect patterns P1 to P5 when it is determined to execute the movable object effect in the executability determination, and the determined operation The effect pattern is executed during the symbol variation effect. Specifically, when the big hit determination in the main control CPU 80a is positive (hit) and the executability determination is positive, the effect control CPU 81a inputs a fluctuation pattern designation command corresponding to the fluctuation pattern for the big hit derivation effect. When it is done, a random number for motion effect pattern determination is acquired, and the value of this acquired random number for motion effect pattern determination is set in the motion effect pattern distribution lottery table T1 (FIG. 18). Any one of the operation effect patterns P1 to P5 is determined in comparison with the value. Further, when the big hit determination in the main control CPU 80a is negative (missing) and the executability determination is positive, the effect control CPU 81a receives a change pattern specification command corresponding to the change pattern for the off effect. The random number for operation presentation pattern determination is acquired, and the value of the acquired random number for operation presentation pattern determination is compared with the determination value for the operation presentation pattern lottery set in the operation presentation pattern distribution lottery table T2 (FIG. 18). Thus, one of the operation effect patterns P1 to P5 is determined.

  When the effect control CPU 81a determines the operation effect pattern, it controls the drive motors 48 and 69 of the movable effect device M based on the determined operation effect pattern, and the movable body 54 or the base member with the determined operation effect pattern. Activate 41 In addition, the effect control CPU 81a outputs a display effect command of a display effect pattern corresponding to the determined operation effect pattern to the display control board 82. Then, the display control CPU 82a controls the display device 17 to display an image based on display data corresponding to the input display effect command on the display unit 17a.

  For example, when the first operation effect pattern P1 is determined as the operation effect pattern, the effect control CPU 81a performs the second drive while maintaining the base member 41 at the initial position without driving the first drive motor 48. Drive control is performed to rotate the motor 69 clockwise. When the switching gear 78 rotates clockwise from the reference position, the non-engagement region N1 of the switching gear 78 moves in the opposing portion of the connecting gear 75 (see FIGS. 10A and 10B). The movable body 54 moves from the first position to the second position under the engagement of the actuating pin 70 a of the second actuating gear 70 and the actuating long hole 57 b of the rotary base 57 without the interlocking gear 75 rotating. Do. That is, the movable portion 56 moves from the first position to the second position while maintaining the projecting state with respect to the main body portion 55 of the movable body 54. Then, the second drive motor 69 which has moved the movable body 54 to the second position is stopped, and the second drive motor 69 is controlled to rotate counterclockwise so that the movable body 54 maintains the first shape. Move to the first position as it is. Further, on the display unit 17a, the image specified by the first display effect pattern R1 is displayed on the entire display unit 17a, and the decoration image 85 is displayed around the movable body 54, so that the interest of the effect is improved. Be done.

  When the second operation effect pattern P2 is determined as the operation effect pattern, the effect control CPU 81a performs the second drive motor while maintaining the base member 41 at the initial position without driving the first drive motor 48. The drive control is performed to rotate 69 in the counterclockwise direction. When the switching gear 78 rotates counterclockwise from the reference position, the meshing region N2 of the switching gear 78 moves in the opposite part of the connecting gear 75 (see FIGS. 10A and 10C). The gear train 74 is rotated by meshing the two gears 75 and 78 and the connecting gear 75 is rotated, and the movable portion 56 is a main body under the meshing action of the end gear 74b and the second rack 64a. It moves so as to sink in the part 55. Further, the movable body 54 moves from the first position to the second position under the engagement of the actuating pin 70a of the second actuating gear 70 and the actuating long hole 57b of the rotary base 57. That is, the movable body 54 moves from the first position to the second position while changing in shape from the first shape in which the movable portion 56 protrudes to the second shape in which the movable portion 56 is sunk in the main body portion 55. Then, the second drive motor 69 which has moved the movable body 54 to the second position is stopped, and the second drive motor 69 is controlled to rotate clockwise so that the movable body 54 can be moved from the second shape to the first shape. It moves to the first position while changing in shape. Further, on the display unit 17a, the first specific image 86 specified by the second display effect pattern R2 is displayed in a region where the movable unit 56 in the display unit 17a moves back and forth, and the attraction of the effect is improved.

  Furthermore, when the third operation effect pattern P3 is determined as the operation effect pattern, the effect control CPU 81a rotates the first drive motor 48 in the forward direction to move the base member 41 from the initial position to the operation position. While moving, the second drive motor 69 is controlled to rotate clockwise. In this case, the movable body 54 moves from the first position to the second position while maintaining the first shape, and the movable body 54 moves to the center side of the display portion 17a (see FIG. 13). Then, the first drive motor 48 which has moved the base member 41 to the operation position is stopped, and the drive control is performed to rotate the first drive motor 48 in the reverse direction, and the movable body 54 is moved to the second position. By stopping the drive motor 69 and controlling the second drive motor 69 to rotate counterclockwise, the base member 41 moves to the initial position, and the movable body 54 maintains the first shape. Move to 1 position. Further, on the display unit 17a, the image specified by the third display effect pattern R3 is displayed on the entire display unit 17a, and the decoration image 85 is displayed around the movable body 54, so that the interest of the effect is improved. Be done.

  Further, when the fourth operation effect pattern P4 is determined as the operation effect pattern, the effect control CPU 81a rotates the first drive motor 48 in the forward direction to move the base member 41 from the initial position to the operation position. While moving, the second drive motor 69 is controlled to rotate counterclockwise. When the switching gear 78 rotates counterclockwise from the reference position, the switching gear 78 meshes with the connecting gear 75 and rotates, so the rotating gear 75 rotates the gear train 74. Then, the movable portion 56 moves so as to be sunk in the main body portion 55 under the meshing action of the end gear 74 b and the second rack 64 a. Further, the movable body 54 moves from the first position to the second position under the engagement of the actuating pin 70a of the second actuating gear 70 and the actuating long hole 57b of the rotary base 57. That is, the movable body 54 moves from the first position to the second position while changing in shape from the first shape in which the movable portion 56 protrudes to the second shape in which the movable portion 56 is sunk in the main body portion 55 The movable body 54 moves to the center side of the display unit 17a (see FIG. 14). Then, the first drive motor 48 which has moved the base member 41 to the operation position is stopped, and the drive control is performed to rotate the first drive motor 48 in the reverse direction, and the movable body 54 is moved to the second position. By stopping the drive motor 69 and controlling the second drive motor 69 to rotate clockwise, the base member 41 moves to the initial position, and the movable body 54 is shaped from the second shape to the first shape. Move to the first position while changing. Further, on the display unit 17a, the first specific image 86 specified by the fourth display effect pattern R4 is displayed in a region where the movable unit 56 in the display unit 17a moves back and forth, and the attraction of the effect is improved.

  Furthermore, when the fifth operation effect pattern P5 is determined as the operation effect pattern, similarly to the fourth operation effect pattern P4, the effect control CPU 81a rotationally drives the first drive motor 48 in the forward direction. The base member 41 is moved from the initial position to the operating position, and the second drive motor 69 is controlled to rotate counterclockwise. Thereby, the movable body 54 moves from the first position to the second position while changing the shape from the first shape to the second shape so that the movable portion 56 is moved so as to be embedded in the main body portion 55. It moves to the center side of the display unit 17a. Then, the second drive motor 69 is stopped in a state where the base member 41 arrives at the operating position and the movable body 54 arrives at the second position in the second shape, and the first drive motor 48 is further rotated in the forward direction. By being rotationally driven, the actuating shaft portion 45 of the base member 41 shifts from the linear guide portion 40 a of the actuating groove 40 to the inclined guide portion 40 b, and the base member 41 rotates about the support shaft portion 42. Move. As a result, the movable member 54 is also pivoted together with the base member 41, and the front end of the main body 55 is tilted so as to be close to the display 17a to be in the front / rear inclination posture (see FIG. 15). The first drive motor 48 that has moved the base member 41 to the tilting position is stopped, and the first drive motor 48 is controlled to rotate in the reverse direction, and the second drive motor 69 is controlled to rotate clockwise. Thus, the base member 41 moves to the initial position, and the movable body 54 moves to the first position while changing its shape from the second shape to the first shape. In addition, while the movable body 54 moves between the initial position and the operation position, a region in which the movable portion 56 in the display unit 17a moves forward and backward in the first specific image 86 specified by the fifth display effect pattern R5.
