  The variable display of the first special symbol is triggered by the winning of the game ball to the first starting opening 11 as a trigger. The variable display of the second special symbol is triggered by the winning of the game ball to the second starting opening 12 as a trigger. In the following description, the first special symbol and the second special symbol may be collectively referred to as a special symbol (special image). The first special view display 81 a and the second special view display 81 b may be collectively referred to as a special view display 81. Also, the first special view hold indicator 83a and the second special view hold indicator 83b may be collectively referred to as a special view hold indicator 83.

  In the special view display 81, the special symbol is variably displayed (variation display) and then stopped to display the lottery based on the winning of the first starting opening 11 or the second starting opening 12 (special symbol lottery, big hit lottery) Report the result. The special symbols (stop symbols, special symbols derived and displayed as display results of variable display) to be stopped and displayed are one special symbol selected from among a plurality of types of special symbols by special symbol lottery. In the case where the stop symbol is a predetermined special symbol (a special symbol of a specific stop mode, ie, a big hit symbol), the open pattern according to the type of the specified special symbol (that is, the type of jackpot won) is displayed. A big hit game (an example of a special game) for opening the big winning opening 14 is performed. In addition, the opening pattern of the special winning opening in the special game will be described later.

  Specifically, the special view display 81 is constituted of, for example, eight LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) arranged side by side, and displays a special symbol according to the result of the big hit lottery by its lighting mode is there. For example, when a jackpot (one of a plurality of jackpots described later) is won, "○○ ●● ○○ ●●" (○: on, ●: off), etc. We display the jackpot design that the fifth and sixth LED lights up. In addition, when there is a loss, a lost design in which only the LED at the rightmost side is lighted is displayed as "● ● ● ● ● ● ● ●". You may employ | adopt the aspect which makes all the LED light-extinguish as a lost design. The lost design is not a special special symbol. Moreover, before the special symbol is stopped and displayed, the variation display of the special symbol is performed over a predetermined variation time, but in the variation display mode, each LED is lighted so that light repeatedly flows from the left to the right, for example It is an aspect of In the mode of the variable display, all the LEDs may be flashed at the same time unless each LED is stopped (displayed in a specific mode).

  In the pachinko gaming machine PY1, when there is a winning (entering) of the gaming ball to the first starting opening 11 or the second starting opening 12, values of various random numbers such as jackpot random numbers acquired for the winning (numerical information The determination information) is temporarily stored in the below-mentioned special view reserve storage unit 105. In detail, if it is a winning to the first starting opening 11, it is stored in the first special view reservation storage unit 105a as a first special view reservation, and if it is a winning to the second starting opening 12, the second special It is memorize | stored in the below-mentioned 2nd special figure reservation memory | storage part 105b as a figure reservation. There is an upper limit to the number of special drawing reservations that can be stored in each special drawing reservation storage unit 105, and the upper limit value in this embodiment is “4”.

  The special view reserve stored in the special view reserve storage unit 105 is digested when the variable display of the special symbol based on the special view reserve becomes possible. The special figure reserve digest means determining the jackpot random number etc. corresponding to the special figure reserve, and executing the variable display of the special symbol for showing the determination result. Therefore, in the pachinko gaming machine PY1, when the variable display of the special symbol based on the winning of the gaming ball to the first starting opening 11 or the second starting opening 12 can not be performed immediately after the winning, ie, the execution of the variable display of the special symbol Even when there is a prize during the middle game or during the execution of the special game, the jackpot lottery right to the prize can be reserved with the predetermined number as the upper limit.

  Then, the number of such special feature reservations is displayed on the special feature reservation display 83. Specifically, each of the special view hold displays 83 is configured of, for example, four LEDs, and displays the number of the special view hold by lighting the LEDs for the number of the special view hold.

  The variable display of the normal symbol is triggered by the passage of the gaming ball to the gate 13. In the common pattern display 82, the result of the normal symbol lottery based on the passage of the game ball to the gate 13 is notified by displaying the normal symbol in a variable display (variable display) and then stopping the display. The normal symbols stop-displayed (a common figure stop symbol, a normal symbol derived and displayed as a display result of variable display) are one normal symbol selected from among a plurality of types of normal symbols by normal symbol lottery. In the case where the stop-displayed normal symbol is a predetermined specified normal symbol (a normal symbol in a predetermined stop mode, that is, a normal hit symbol), the second starting opening 12 is opened with an opening pattern according to the current gaming state. Auxiliary games are played. The opening pattern of the second start opening 12 will be described later.

  Specifically, the common view display 82 is configured of, for example, two LEDs (see FIG. 6), and displays a normal symbol according to the result of the normal symbol lottery by the lighting mode. For example, when the lottery result is a hit, a normal hit symbol with both LEDs turned on is displayed, such as "○" (○: on, ●: off). In addition, when the lottery result is a loss, a normal loss symbol in which only the right LED is lit is displayed as "● ○". You may employ | adopt the aspect which makes all the LED light-extinguish as normal loss design. In addition, the usual lost design is not a specific normal design. The normal symbol variation display is performed over a predetermined variation time before the normal symbol display is stopped and displayed, but the variation display mode is, for example, a mode in which both LEDs light alternately. In the mode of the variable display, all the LEDs may be flashed at the same time unless each LED is stopped (displayed in a specific mode).

  In this pachinko gaming machine PY1, when there is a passage of the game ball to the gate 13, the value of the normal symbol random number (per random number) acquired for the passage is held as a common drawing reservation in the common drawing reservation storage unit 106 described later. It is memorized once. There is an upper limit to the number of common drawing reservations that can be stored in the common drawing reservation storage unit 106, and the upper limit in this embodiment is "4".

  The common drawing reserve stored in the common drawing reserve storage unit 106 is digested when the variable display of the normal symbol based on the common drawing reserve becomes possible. Digestion of a common drawing reserve refers to determination of a normal symbol random number (hit random number) corresponding to the common drawing reserve, and execution of variable display of a normal symbol to indicate the determination result. Therefore, in the pachinko gaming machine PY1, when the variable display of the normal symbol based on the passage of the game ball to the gate 13 can not be performed immediately after the passage, that is, winning during the execution of the variable display of the normal symbol or the auxiliary game. Even in the case where there is a problem, it is possible to reserve the right of the normal symbol lottery for the passage with the predetermined number as the upper limit.

  Then, the number of such common drawing reservations is displayed on the common drawing reservation display 84. Specifically, the common drawing hold display 84 is constituted of, for example, four LEDs, and displays the number of common drawing hold by lighting the LEDs for the number of common drawing hold.

2. Configuration of Upper Decoration Unit Next, the configuration of the upper decoration unit 200 will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 3 and 7-42. As shown in FIG. 7, the upper decoration unit 200 is attached to the top of the base frame 23 w of the front door 23. The upper decoration unit 200 includes a lifting unit 300, a central upper unit 400, an upper left unit 500, and an upper right unit 550. The central upper unit 400, the upper left unit 500, and the upper right unit 550 are assembled to a mounting base 331 disposed on the front side of the lifting unit 300. A portion of the front door 23 excluding the upper decoration unit 200 is referred to as a front door base 710.

  The lifting and lowering unit 300 performs lifting and lowering operations of the upper decoration unit 200 (FIGS. 3 and 8 to 10). The upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 perform opening and closing operations (FIGS. 9 and 11). The central upper unit 400 performs back and forth rotation operation (reversing operation, FIGS. 11 and 13) and left and right rotation operation (timing operation, FIGS. 13 and 14).

  First, the raising and lowering operation will be described. The upper decoration unit 200 can extend upward in two stages from the initial state shown in FIG. The state where one stage extends upward is the intermediate state shown in FIG. 8, and the state where two stages extend upward is the final state shown in FIG.

  The upper decoration unit 200, as shown in FIG. 9, has a fixed decoration 310 located at the lowermost level in the final state, a first movable decoration 330 located at the uppermost level, and a second movable decoration 250 located at the middle level. And have. When the first movable decorative body 330 and the second movable decorative body 250 are collectively referred to, they are referred to as a movable decorative body.

  The fixed decorative body 310 is provided in the elevating unit 300, and does not move while being attached to the base frame 23w (FIG. 7) of the front door 23. The fixed decorative body 310 is provided with a light emitting display unit 312 described later.

  The first movable decorative body 330 includes a central upper unit 400, an upper left unit 500, an upper right unit 550, and a mounting base 331 (FIG. 7) to which these units are attached. The first movable decorative body 330 is movable upward in two stages with respect to the fixed decorative body 310. The first movable decorative body 330 is located in front of the fixed decorative body 310 so as to overlap with the fixed decorative body 310 in the front-rear direction in the initial position shown in FIG. 3. In the middle position shown in FIG. 8, it is positioned above the fixed decoration 310. Further, in the final position shown in FIG. 9, it is positioned further above the intermediate position.

  The second movable decorative body 250 is provided in the elevating unit 300, and is disposed forward of the fixed decorative body 310 and rearward of the first movable decorative body 330. The second movable decorative body 250 is movable upward by one step relative to the fixed decorative body 310. The second movable decorative body 250 is hidden behind the first movable decorative body 330 when the upper decorative unit 200 is in the initial state (FIG. 3). This position is the initial position of the second movable decorative body 250. Also, when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the initial state, the fixed decoration 310 is also hidden behind the first movable decoration 330 and the second movable decoration 250.

  The second movable decorative body 250 moves upward together with the first movable decorative body 330 while hiding behind the first movable decorative body 330 when the upper decorative unit 200 is deformed from the initial state to the intermediate state. Therefore, even when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the middle state, it is hidden behind the first movable decoration 330 (FIG. 8). At this point, the fixed decorative body 310 is visible to the player.

  Then, when the upper decorative unit 200 is transformed from the intermediate state to the final state, the second movable decorative body 250 remains at the position without following the first movable decorative body 330. This makes it possible for the player to visually recognize (FIG. 9). This position is the final position of the second movable decorative body 250.

  Thus, in the initial state (FIG. 3), only the first movable decorative body 330 located at the front is visible to the upper decorative unit 200 from the player, and in the intermediate state (FIG. 8) The movable decorative body 330 and the fixed decorative body 310 can be visually recognized side by side in the vertical direction. Then, in the final state (FIG. 9), the first movable decorative body 330, the second movable decorative body 250, and the fixed decorative body 310 are arranged in this order from top to bottom and become visible.

  The vertical length (first length) of the front door 23 when the upper decorative unit 200 is in the initial state is X1 (FIG. 3), and the upper and lower sides of the front door 23 when the upper decorative unit 200 is in the intermediate state Length (second length) in the direction is X2 (FIG. 8), and length (third length) in the vertical direction of the front door 23 when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the final state is X3 (FIG. 9) Assuming that), the relationship between the lengths is X1 <X2 <X3. That is, in the present embodiment, when the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed, the gaming machine frame 2 (the front door 23) extends upward. By the way, X3 is about 1.25 times X1. Moreover, the width W1 (FIG. 8) of the first movable decorative body 330 in the upper decoration unit 200 in the left-right direction is slightly shorter than the width W2 in the left-right direction of the front door 23, but the width W3 in the left-right direction of the window 23m. Is long. That is, the first movable decorative body 330 is a movable object having a relatively wide width (a movable object having a width similar to that of the gaming machine frame 2), which moves upward. Therefore, the player does not have the impression that the movable object disposed in the gaming machine frame 2 (front door 23) merely moves, and gives the player the impression that the entire gaming machine frame 2 (front door 23) extends upward. It is possible to give. The upper front portion (upper left front portion 721) of the left side portion 720 of the front door 23 and the upper front portion (upper right front portion 731) of the right side portion 730 are included in the first movable decorative body 330. That is, the upper left front portion 721 and the upper right front portion 731 are locations that move when the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed.

  Here, as shown in FIGS. 10 (A) to 10 (C), the first movable decorative body 330 does not move upward, but moves obliquely upward toward the upper side. That is, the movement direction of the first movable decorative body 330 includes a component in the vertical direction and a component in the front-rear direction. For this reason, it is easy to give the impression that a part of the gaming machine frame 2 (the front door 23) is shifted as compared with the configuration in which it moves upward. Specifically, the upper right decoration 575 (upper left decoration) while the upper right decoration 575 (upper left decoration 525) and the right middle decoration 221 (left middle decoration 211) that were connected in design are separated vertically 525) is shifted forward with respect to the right center decoration 221 (left center decoration 211). Thereby, the design of the gaming machine frame 2 (front door 23) is broken. Therefore, it is possible to give the player a novel impression that the gaming machine frame 2 has shifted. The upper right decoration portion 575 is also referred to as a right movable decoration portion, and the right center decoration portion 221 and the lower right decoration portion 233 (FIG. 9) are collectively referred to as a right fixed decoration portion 704. The upper left decorative portion 525 is also referred to as a left movable decorative portion, and the left center decorative portion 211 and the lower left decorative portion 231 are collectively referred to as a left fixed decorative portion 709.

  The mechanism of the lifting unit 300 will be described later.

  Next, the opening and closing operations of the upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 will be described based on FIGS. 9, 11 and 12. FIG. The state shown in FIG. 9 is called the closed state (closed state) of the upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550, and the state shown in FIG. 11 is the opened state of the upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 (opened). It is said. The upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 have symmetrical shapes, and the components are the same. Thus, the upper left unit 500 will be described below, and the detailed description of the upper right unit 550 will be omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 12, the upper left unit 500 includes a left movable body 510 and an open / close drive unit 530 for driving the left movable body 510. The open / close drive unit 530 is engaged with the upper left motor 531 which is a stepping motor, a drive gear 532 attached to the rotation shaft of the upper left motor 531, a driven gear 533 meshed with the drive gear 532 and a driven gear 533 And a fan-shaped gear portion 534. The sector gear portion 534 is fixed to the left movable body 510. Therefore, by driving the upper left motor 531, the drive gear 532, the driven gear 533, and the sector gear portion 534 interlock, and the left movable body 510 rotates around the shaft member 511 as a rotation center.

  The left movable body 510 is a combination of an inner member 512 not visible to the player in the closed state and an outer member 520 visible to the player in the closed state. The inner member 512 includes a circular inner lens portion 513 and an inner body portion 515 surrounding the inner lens portion 513. The outer member 520 includes a circular outer lens portion 521 (FIG. 9) and an outer lens. And an outer main body portion 523 surrounding the portion 521. The inner main body 515 and the outer main body 523 are made of a translucent synthetic resin. The front portion of the left movable body 510 is the upper left decorative portion 525 described above, and the front surface portion 525 a of the upper left decorative portion 525 is the front surface portion of the outer main body portion 523.

  Further, the left movable body 510 incorporates an LED substrate in which an upper left frame lamp 528 (LED) is mounted on both sides between the inner member 512 and the outer member 520. When the upper left frame lamp 528 lights up, the front surface 525a of the upper left decorative portion 525 emits surface light. Further, when the upper left unit 500 is in the closed state (FIG. 9), the light passing through the outer lens portion 521 is well visible to the player, and when the upper left unit 500 is in the open state (FIG. 11), the inner lens portion The light passing through 513 is well visible to the player.

  The upper left unit 500 further includes a left mirror surface 527 inside (that is, on the surface 512a side of the inner member 512 seen by the player when the upper left unit 500 is in the open state) (FIG. 11). The left mirror portion 527 makes the opening and closing drive portion 530 (FIG. 12) invisible from the player. When the left upper unit 500 is in the open state, a part of the light of the upper left frame lamp 528 that has passed through the inner lens portion 513 or the like is reflected by the left mirror surface portion 527. Therefore, the rendering effect of the light-emitting effect when the upper left unit 500 is in the open state is enhanced as compared to the case where the left mirror surface 527 is not provided.

  In the upper right unit 550, the configuration corresponding to the left movable body 510 is referred to as the right movable member 560, the configuration corresponding to the upper left motor 531 is referred to as the upper right motor 581, and the configuration corresponding to the left mirror surface 527 The right mirror surface 577 is referred to, and the remaining configuration is given the same name and code as the configuration in the upper left unit 500. The front portion of the right movable body 560 is the above-mentioned upper right decoration portion 575, and the front surface portion of the outer main body portion 523 in the right movable body 560 is the front portion 575a of the upper right decoration portion 575. In addition, the right movable body 560 incorporates an LED substrate in which an upper right frame lamp 578 (LED) is mounted on both sides between the inner member 512 and the outer member 520.

  The amount of rotation of the left movable body 510 and the right movable body 560 is about 90 degrees. The left movable body 510 and the right movable body 560 are obliquely disposed so that the front surface portions 525a and 575a face inward in the closed state (FIG. 9), but the front surface portions 525a and 575a face outward in the open state (FIG. Figure 11). Assuming that the width in the left-right direction of the first movable decorative body 330 when the left upper unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 are in the open state is W4 (FIG. 11), the upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 are closed It is longer than the width W1 (FIG. 8) of the first movable decorative body 330 in the lateral direction in the state. The amount of rotation of the left movable body 510 and the right movable body 560 can be designed as appropriate. For example, when the upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 are in the open state, the width in the left-right direction of the first movable decorative body 330 may be configured to be longer than the width W2 of the front door 23.

  Next, the front-rear rotation operation (reverse operation) and the left-right rotation operation (kimmer operation) of the central upper unit 400 will be described based on FIGS. 11 and 13 to 18. The state shown in FIG. 11 is called the initial state of the central upper unit 400, the state shown in FIG. 13 is called the inverted state of the central upper unit 400, and the state shown in FIG. 14 is called the texture state (final state) of the central upper unit 400. .

  The central upper unit 400 includes a rotating body 401 that can be rotated forward about a rotation axis along the left-right direction. The rotating body 401 is provided with a front side decoration 410 facing the player in the initial state (FIG. 11), and a back decoration 430 facing the player in the reverse state and the flip state (FIGS. 13 and 14). . The front side decoration portion 410 includes a front side lens portion 411 designed in a vertically-long octagonal shape, and a front side base member 420 having a circular front view to which the front side lens portion 411 is attached. The front decoration part 410 incorporates a first central frame lamp 428 (LED). The front lens portion 411 is recessed rearward from the peripheral portion to the central portion 414, and the central portion 414 is more finely uneven than the other portions. When the first center frame lamp 428 is turned on, the light is emitted forward through the front lens unit 411. That is, the front side lens unit 411 emits light.

  As shown in FIG. 13, the back side decorative portion 430 includes a hemispherical back side lens portion 431 and a front side circular back side base member 440 to which the back side lens portion 431 is attached. The back side base member 440 is assembled so as to be concentric with the front side base member 420 of the front side decorative portion 410, and the back side base member 440 and the front side base member 420 collectively form a cylindrical shape.

  The rear side lens portion 431 is arranged to be circular in a front view when the central upper unit 400 is in the reverse state (FIG. 13). The hemispherical surface of the rear side lens portion 431 has a predetermined design. The rear side lens portion 431 is attached to the rear side base member 440 so as to be rotatable about a rotation axis along the front-rear direction. The origin position of the rear side lens portion 431 is the position shown in FIG. 13, and when it is rotated 90 degrees to the right from this position, the state shown in FIG. 14 is obtained. The position shown in FIG. 14 is the operation position of the rear side lens unit 431. That is, when the central upper unit 400 is in the reverse state, the rear side lens unit 431 is in a state where the predetermined design (in the embodiment, the design of the hand) is lying sideways, and rotated 90 degrees to the right by the texture operation. , The orientation of the predetermined design is correct.

  Further, the back side decoration portion 430 is provided with five decorative feathers 450 which appear along with the right rotation of the back side lens portion 431 (FIG. 14). Each decorative feather 450 is made of translucent synthetic resin. The front surface of the decorative feather 450 is uneven. The decorative blade 450 is disposed between the back side lens portion 431 and the back side base member 440. The decorative feather 450 is stored as the back side lens portion 431 returns from the operating position to the home position (FIG. 13).

  The rear lens portion 431 incorporates a second central frame lamp 448 (LED). When the second center frame lamp 448 is turned on, the portion of the back side lens portion 431 where the design is made emits light. Also, part of the light of the second central frame lamp 448 conducts the decorative blade 450. Therefore, the decorative feather 450 also emits light partially.

  Here, the front-rear rotation operation (reverse operation) of the rotating body 401 is realized by the front-rear rotation drive unit 460 shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 15, the front-rear rotation drive unit 460 meshes with a first central upper motor 461 which is a stepping motor, and a first gear 462 and a first gear 462 attached to the rotation shaft of the first central upper motor 461. A driving gear 465 having a second gear 463, a third gear 464 meshing with the second gear 463, and a gear portion (not shown) meshing with the third gear 464, a driven gear 468 rotating intermittently according to the rotation of the driving gear 465 Is equipped. The driving wheel 465 is attached to the rotation shaft of the rotating body 401. Therefore, when the first central upper motor 461 is driven, the first gear 462, the second gear 463, the third gear 464, and the driving wheel 465 interlock to rotate the rotating body 401.

  The driving wheel 465 and the driven wheel 468 constitute a Geneva mechanism. The driving wheel 465 is provided with two pin portions 466 on the end face opposite to the rotating body 401 side. As the driving wheel 465 rotates, the pin portion 466 enters the slot 469 of the driven wheel 468 to rotate the driven wheel 468. As a result, the driven wheel 468 rotates intermittently. The driven wheel 468 includes a first shielding portion 471 inserted between the light emitting portion and the light receiving portion of the first photosensor 475 for detecting the origin position of the rotating body 401, and a second photosensor for detecting the end position of the rotating body 401. A second shielding section 472 is provided between the light emitting section 476 and the light receiving section. Further, a projection (not shown) is provided on the end face of the driven wheel 468 on the rotating body 401 side. The projection abuts on an unshown abutted portion at an origin position and an end position of the rotating body 401. Thereby, the rotation range of the rotating body 401 is restricted between the origin position and the end position. That is, the driven wheel 468 also functions as means for restricting the rotation range of the rotating body 401.

  The front-rear rotation operation of the rotary body 401 is realized by such a front-rear rotation drive unit 460. FIG. 15 (B) shows a state where the rotating body 401 has been rotated forward a half turn from the home position (FIG. 15 (A)), and FIG. It is in a state of That is, the rotary body 401 reaches the end point position when it makes one revolution half turn forward from the origin position. By setting the rotation range of the rotating body 401 to a half and not a half, it is possible to provide a movable impact with a higher impact.

  The operation pattern of the rotary body 401 includes an operation pattern B shown in FIG. 16 in addition to the operation pattern A shown in FIG. 15 (the operation pattern for positioning the back side lens portion 431 forward). The operation pattern B is an operation pattern in which the operation of rotating the rotary member 401 forward 1/6 turn from the origin position (FIG. 16B) and returning to the origin position (FIG. 16A) is repeated multiple times. In the present embodiment, the operation pattern A is used to notify of the jackpot winning, and the operation pattern B is used to obtain the expectation of the jackpot.

  Next, the horizontal rotation operation (texture operation) of the rear side lens unit 431 will be described. The texture operation of the rear side lens unit 431 is an operation in which the rear side lens unit 431 is rotated 90 degrees to the right (FIGS. 13 and 14). Along with this operation, the five decorative feathers 450 change from the stored state (the state stored at the rear of the rear side lens portion 431) to the appearance state (the state exposed to the radially outer side of the rear side lens portion 431). Specifically, as shown in FIG. 17A, the five decorative wings 450 rotatably attached to the back side base member 440 rotate in the counterclockwise direction from the stored state, as shown in FIG. It changes to the appearance state shown in B).

  The operations of the rear side lens unit 431 and the decorative blade 450 are realized by the left and right rotation drive unit 480 shown in FIG. FIG. 18 is the inside of the back side base member 440 seen from the rear when the central upper unit 400 is in the reverse state (FIG. 13). The left and right rotation drive unit 480 engages with the disk member 481 provided with the gear unit 482 at a part of the outer periphery, the sector gear 485 with the shaft portion 486 fitted in the curved groove 483 of the disk member 481 And a torsion spring 490 for urging the sector gear 485. The sector gear 485, the driven gear 488, and the torsion spring 490 are provided five each corresponding to each decorative blade 450. Further, five curved groove portions 483 are provided in the disk member 481 corresponding to the shaft portions 486 of the sector gears 485.

  Each driven gear 488 is attached to the rotation shaft 451 (FIG. 17) of each decorative blade 450. In addition, the disk member 481 is attached to the rotation shaft of the rear side lens unit 431. That is, the rotation axis of the rear side lens portion 431 is inserted into the insertion hole 441 (FIG. 17) provided at the center of the rear side base member 440 and screwed to the central portion 481a (FIG. 18) of the disk member 481.

  Although not shown in FIG. 18, a drive gear fixed to the rotation shaft of the second central upper motor 494, which is a stepping motor, meshes with the gear portion 482 of the disk member 481. Therefore, when the second central upper motor 494 is driven, the disk member 481 and the rear side lens portion 431 rotate together. Further, when the disk member 481 is rotated, the sector gears 485 are rotated by the biasing force of the torsion spring 490 while the shaft portion 486 is guided by the curved groove portion 483. As a result, the driven gear 488 and the decorative blade 450 rotate (FIGS. 17A and 18). Thus, the central upper unit 400 is deformed from the reverse state shown in FIG. 13 to the texture state shown in FIG. When the second central upper motor 494 is reversely rotated, the rear side lens portion 431 and the decorative blade 450 rotate in the direction opposite to the texture operation. Thus, the texture state shown in FIG. 14 returns to the reverse state shown in FIG.

  Next, the drive mechanism of the lifting and lowering unit 300 will be described based on FIGS. As shown in FIG. 19, the lifting unit 300 has a base plate 301 disposed at the rear end, a fixed decorative body 310, a second movable decorative body 250, and a mounting base 331 (a central upper portion of the first movable decorative body 330.

The gear portion 356 of the special gear 355 meshes with the inner gear 353 b of the two-stage gear 353. The special gear 355 is a gear portion 356 to which a metal plate 358 is attached. The metal plate 358 is provided with an extending portion 360 which extends radially outward of the tip end circle of the gear portion 356. The extending portion 360 is not provided over one turn, but is provided in a range of about 1⁄3 turn. An engaging shaft portion 362 extending in the left-right direction is fixed to the extending portion 360 of the metal plate 358. The engagement shaft 362 is engaged with the long hole 371 of the first arm 370.

The first torsion coil spring 375 is attached to the first shaft portion 303 via a first spring spacer 800 shown in FIG. This point will be described later.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 19, the tip end portion 370b of the first arm 370 is pivotally supported by the lower portion of the right side portion 333R of the mounting base 331 (a part of the first movable decorative body 330). Further, a mounting bracket 335 is fixed to an upper portion of the right end surface of the mounting base 331, and a right leg portion 336R is fixed to the mounting bracket 335. The vertical length of the right leg 336R is longer than the vertical length of the right side 333R of the mounting base 331. A hooking portion 340, which will be described later, is fixed between the right side portion 333R and the right side leg portion 336R of the mounting base 331.

  The elevating unit 300 further includes a gear assembling member 390 on which the elevating motor 351, the two-stage gear 353, the special gear 355, and the like are assembled, and a guide plate 396 having a circular guide groove 397. The guide plate 396 is attached to the outer side (right side in FIG. 19) of the gear assembly member 390. An engagement shaft 338 provided at the lower end of the right leg 336R is engaged with the guide groove 397 of the guide plate 396. In the upper front of the gear assembling member 390, a restricting portion 391 described later is provided.

  The lift drive unit 350 also has three photo sensors. One is an initial position photosensor PS1 for detecting an initial position of the first movable decorative body 330, and the other is an intermediate position photo for detecting an intermediate position of the first movable decorative body 330. The sensor PS2 is another sensor PS3 for detecting the final position of the first movable decorative body 330. Each photo sensor PS1 to PS3 is attached to the gear assembly member 390. The special gear 355 is provided with a shielding portion 355a that shields between the light receiving portion and the light receiving portion of the initial position photosensor PS1 and the final position photosensor PS3. On the other hand, a shielding plate 357 for shielding between the light receiving portion and the light emitting portion of the intermediate position photosensor PS2 is attached to the rotation shaft of the special gear 355. The shielding plate 357 has a circular shape and is located outside the guide plate 396 (right side in FIG. 19) in the mounted state.

  The second arm 380 is substantially I-shaped in a side view, and the base end 380 a is pivotally supported by the second shaft 304 attached to the base plate 301. The second torsion coil spring 385 is attached to the second shaft portion 304. One end of the second torsion coil spring 385 is attached to the base plate 301 side, and the other end is attached to the second arm 380. The second torsion coil spring 385 applies an urging force to the second arm 380 in a direction in which the second movable decorative body 250 ascends. The base plate 301 is provided with a shaft cover 389 that covers the first shaft portion 303 and the second shaft portion 304. Further, a bulging portion 381 bulging inward (left side in FIG. 19) is provided on the base end portion 380a side of the second arm 380. The second torsion coil spring 385 is attached to the second shaft portion 304 via a second spring spacer 820 shown in FIG. This point will be described later.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 19, the tip end portion 380 b of the second arm 380 is pivotally supported by the lower portion of the right side portion of the second movable decorative body 250. In the upper part of the right side of the second movable decorative body 250, an engagement shaft portion 251 extending in the left-right direction is provided. The engagement shaft portion 251 is engaged with a linear groove 339 provided on the inner side (left side in FIG. 19) of the right side portion 333R of the mounting base 331 (part of the first movable decorative body 330).

  The left end of the lifting unit 300 is also configured similarly to the right end shown in FIG. For the left end of lifting unit 300, the configuration corresponding to right side 333R of mounting base 331 is referred to as left side 333L (FIG. 25), and the configuration corresponding to right leg 336R is referred to as left leg 336L (FIG. 25) The remaining components have the same names and reference numerals as the configuration of the right end of the lifting unit 300.

  Here, the first spring spacer 800 and the second spring spacer 820 will be described based on FIG. As shown in FIG. 20, the first spring spacer 800 is for filling the gap between the first shaft portion 303 and the first torsion coil spring 375 (FIG. 19). In the present embodiment, the coil diameter of the first torsion coil spring 375 (the diameter of the coil portion of the first torsion coil spring 375) is larger than the shaft diameter of the first shaft portion 303. Therefore, by attaching the first spring spacer 800 to the first shaft portion 303, the first torsion coil spring 375 can be attached to the first shaft portion 303.

  The first shaft portion 303 is made of metal, and the first torsion coil spring 375 is made of synthetic resin. If the diameter of the first shaft portion itself is increased, the first shaft portion becomes heavy, and as a result, the upper decorative unit 200 becomes heavy. Therefore, in the present embodiment, a configuration in which the first spring spacer 800 is fitted to the first shaft portion 303 is adopted. Further, in the present embodiment, the first movable decorative body 330 is relatively heavy because it includes movable objects such as the central upper unit 400, the upper left unit 500, and the upper right unit 550. Therefore, in order to assist the ascent of the first movable decorative body 330, it is necessary to use a torsion coil spring having a relatively large coil diameter.

  The first spring spacer 800 has a substantially cylindrical shape (cylindrical shape) that is circular in a side view, and a central portion along the axial direction (left and right direction) is a through hole 801 penetrating left and right. The first shaft portion 303 is inserted into the through hole 801. The first spring spacer 800 is provided with grooves 803 at regular intervals in the circumferential direction. That is, the first spring spacer 800 has a groove 803 (a portion smaller in diameter than the diameter of the first spring spacer 800 itself) and a tooth portion 805 (a non-groove portion, the first spring spacer 800 itself) like a general gear. (Portions of the same diameter as the diameter of) are alternately provided in the circumferential direction. Specifically, the groove 803 is provided separately on the right side and the left side of the first torsion coil spring 375. That is, the central portion in the left-right direction of the first spring spacer 800 is a reinforcing portion 807 (a portion having the same diameter as the diameter of the first spring spacer 800 itself) without the groove 803 over the entire circumference. The groove portion 803 extends in the axial direction (left and right direction) of the first spring spacer 800.

  The circumferential width W11 of the tooth portion 805 (non-groove portion) and the lateral width W12 of the reinforcing portion 807 are 3 mm or less (2.5 mm in this embodiment). In addition, the thickness W13 around the through hole 801 (difference between the radius from the center of the first spring spacer 800 to the groove 803 in a side view and the radius of the through hole 801) is also 3 mm or less (2.5 mm in this embodiment) is there. As described above, the first spring spacer 800 has the groove 803 so that there is no place where the thickness exceeds 3 mm. This makes it easy to mold.

  That is, if the first spring spacer is not provided with the groove, a difference thickness between the radius of the first spring spacer and the radius of the through hole is generated. In addition, a thickness corresponding to the axial length of the first spring spacer is generated. Therefore, in this case, in the resin molding process, the resin material filled in the mold waits for contraction due to temperature decrease, and the process of filling the resin material again increases the number of times of repetition. In the configuration of the present embodiment, since any portion of the first spring spacer 800 is thinner than a predetermined value (3 mm), the number of times of refilling can be reduced, and the manufacturing process can be simplified. It has become. In addition, it is not preferable from the viewpoint of manufacturing cost to manufacture the first spring spacer 800 having the groove portion 803 by a method other than molding such as cutting. Incidentally, the predetermined value (3 mm) is greater than the difference between the outer diameter (diameter of the tip circle) of the first spring spacer 800 and the inner diameter (diameter of the through hole 801) or the axial length of the first spring spacer 800 Naturally it is a short value.

  Further, the first spring spacer 800 rotates in response to the restoration of the first torsion coil spring 375 (FIG. 19) when the first movable decorative body 330 is lifted. That is, since the first torsion coil spring 375 is in contact with the plurality of tooth portions 805 intermittently provided in the circumferential direction of the first spring spacer 800, the first spring spacer 800 is restored to a free length. Is slightly rotated (see the arrow in FIG. 20). Therefore, the smooth movement of the first movable decorative body 330 can be expected, and it can be expected to suppress the reduction of the rendering effect of the presentation accompanied by the movement of the first movable decorative body 330.

  As shown in FIG. 20, the second spring spacer 820 is for filling the gap between the second shaft portion 304 and the second torsion coil spring 385 (FIG. 19). Similarly to the first spring spacer 800, the second spring spacer 820 also includes a through hole 821, a groove 823, a tooth 825 (non-groove), and a reinforcement 827. The circumferential width W21 of the tooth portion 825 and the lateral width W22 of the reinforcing portion 827 both have a thickness W23 around the through hole 821 of 3 mm or less (2.5 mm in this embodiment). The technical significance of the second spring spacer 820 is similar to that of the first spring spacer 800.

  Next, the raising and lowering operation of the upper decoration unit 200 will be described. The upper decoration unit 200 operates as follows by the lift drive unit 350 configured as described above. That is, when the elevating motor 351 is driven, as shown in FIG. 21, the drive gear 352, the two-stage gear 353, and the special gear 355 interlock, and the engagement shaft 362 of the special gear 355 is the length of the first arm 370. It slides in the hole 371. As a result, the first arm 370 pivots in the direction of lifting the first movable decorative body 330 (clockwise in the figure). The first torsion coil spring 375 (FIG. 19) assists the pivoting of the first arm 370 with a biasing force.

  As the first arm 370 pivots, the first movable decorative body 330 moves upward and obliquely forward while the engagement shaft 338 of the right leg 336R is guided by the guide groove 397 of the guide plate 396. . At the initial position (FIG. 21A), the engagement shaft 362 at the upper end of the long hole 371 of the first arm 370 has moved to the lower end of the long hole 371 at the middle of the first movable decorative body 330. It is a position (FIG. 21 (B)). In this state, the engagement shaft 338 located at the lower end of the guide groove 397 is moved to the middle of the guide groove 397.

  Thus, as the first movable decorative body 330 ascends, as shown in FIG. 22, the second movable decorative body 250 also ascends. In the second movable decorative body 250, at the initial position, the engagement shaft portion 251 is engaged with the upper end of the linear groove portion 339 of the first movable decorative body 330, and the lifting is restricted (FIG. 22A). When the first movable decorative body 330 ascends, the second arm 380 is urged by the second torsion coil spring 385 (FIG. 19) to pivot the second movable decorative body 250 in the lifting direction (clockwise in the drawing) . Therefore, the second movable decorative body 250 follows the first movable decorative body 330 and ascends (FIG. 22 (B)). Therefore, the second movable decorative body 250 rises while being hidden behind the first movable decorative body 330 until the first movable decorative body 330 reaches the intermediate position.

  At an intermediate position of the first movable decorative body 330, the engagement shaft portion 251 of the second movable decorative body 250 is still positioned at the upper end of the linear groove 339. Further, in this position, the bulging portion 381 (FIG. 19) of the second arm 380 abuts on the shaft cover 389, so that further rotation of the second arm 380 is restricted. Therefore, this position is the final position of the second movable decorative body 250.

  When the elevating motor 351 is further driven, as shown in FIGS. 21B and 21C, the first movable decorative body 330 further starts to ascend from the intermediate position. Specifically, the special gear 355 rotates, and the engagement shaft 362 of the special gear 355 slides from the lower end to the upper end of the long hole 371 of the first arm 370 according to this. As a result, the first arm 370 rotates, and the first movable decorative body 330 is raised to the final position while the engagement shaft 338 is guided by the guide groove 397. In the final position, the engagement shaft 338 moves to the upper end of the guide groove 397.

  Even if the first movable decorative body 330 moves from the intermediate position to the final position, as shown in FIGS. 22B and 22C, the second movable decorative body 250 remains in place without being lifted. Therefore, only the linear groove portion 339 of the first movable decorative body 330 is lifted while the position of the engagement shaft portion 251 of the second movable decorative body 250 remains unchanged. When the first movable decorative body 330 is in the final position, the engagement shaft 251 is located at the lower end of the linear groove 339.

  Here, the guide groove 397 is curved so as to expand forward in a right side view (FIG. 21), but the upper end 397 b is forward of the lower end 397 a and extends from the lower end 397 a to the upper end 397 b than the upper end 397 b A place 397c on the way to the middle (a place 397c on the way from the middle portion to the upper end 397b) is on the front side. The point 397c on the way is called the frontmost position 397c. That is, in the process of causing the first movable decorative body 330 to reach the final position from the intermediate position (in the section from the foremost position 397c to the upper end 397b), the guide groove 397 of the right leg 336R (or the left leg 336L) The engagement shaft 338 is guided rearward.

  For this reason, the first movable decorative body 330 acts to push the upper portion of the second movable decorative body 250 backward at the end of its operation. That is, the second movable decorative body 250 pivots rearward with the attachment axis with respect to the second arm 380 as the center of rotation (FIGS. 22B and 22C). As a result, the second movable decorative body 250 stands up more than when the first movable decorative body 330 is positioned at the intermediate position (a second movable decorative body inclined obliquely upward toward the front) The inclination angle with respect to the vertical plane of the body 250 is reduced). Therefore, the first movable decorative body 330 is positioned at an intermediate position in the gap between the second movable decorative body 250 and the upper portion of the fixed decorative body 310 (L1 in FIG. 22B and L2 in FIG. 22C). It is smaller when it is located at the final position than when it is (L1> L2). The first movable decorative body 330 is also at the middle position in the gap between the mounting base 331 of the first movable decorative body 330 and the second movable decorative body 250 (L3 in FIG. 22B and L4 in FIG. 22C). The position at the final position is smaller than that at the position (L3> L4).

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the first movable decorative body 330 widens the space with the fixed decorative body 310 by the movement from the initial position to the intermediate position, and the space with the fixed decorative body 310 by the movement from the intermediate position to the final position. Narrow (Figure 22). In response to this, the inclination of the second movable decorative body 250 with respect to the vertical plane increases until the first movable decorative body 330 reaches the intermediate position, but decreases as it reaches the final position. Therefore, when the first movable decorative body 330 is in the final position, the first movable decorative body 330, the second movable decorative body 250, and the fixed decorative body 310 are disposed relatively without a gap, so that the player feels unity It is easy to be recognized as a single effect device.

  FIG. 23 is a perspective view of the upper decorative unit 200 when the first movable decorative body 330 is in the middle position, viewed from the lower right, and FIG. 24 shows the first movable decorative body 330 in the final position It is the perspective view which looked at the upper decoration unit 200 of time from diagonally lower right. As shown in FIG. 23, when the first movable decorative body 330 is in the middle position, the gap RS appears to be large between the second movable decorative body 250 and the fixed decorative body 310. On the other hand, when the first movable decorative body 330 is at the final position, the gap RS between the second movable decorative body 250 and the fixed decorative body 310 becomes smaller as shown in FIG.

  Here, the ball | bowl discharge | emission structure in the upper decoration unit 200 is mainly demonstrated based on FIG.19 and FIG.25-FIG. When the upper decoration unit 200 is in the final state (that is, when the first movable decoration 330 is in the final position), the upper decoration unit 200 is disposed on the left and right sides together with the fixed decoration 310 and the second movable decoration 250. The lift drive unit 350 is also exposed (FIG. 9). As described above, in the present embodiment, the gear assembly member 390 is provided with the restricting portion 391 (FIG. 19). The restricting portion 391 protrudes obliquely upward from the upper front of the gear assembly member 390. The upper front portion of the gear assembly member 390 is a portion that covers the special gear 355, and therefore is curved according to the shape of the gear portion 356 of the special gear 355. A restricting portion 391 protrudes from the curved upper surface. Thus, the rear side of the base of the regulating portion 391 is a depressed portion 393 (corresponding to a specific portion) that is recessed downward.

  FIG. 25 is a rear perspective view of the first movable decorative body 330 in the final position. When the first movable decorative body 330 is in the final position, the extension portion 360 of the special gear 355 is located inside the recess 393 (left side in FIG. 25). Further, the left leg 336L is located on the outer side (right side in FIG. 25) of the recess 393. That is, the left and right of the recess 393 are surrounded by the extending portion 360 and the left leg 336L.

  When the first movable decorative body 330 is at the final position, the gaming ball can be placed in the recess 393 through the gap between the first arm 370 and the left leg 336L. The game ball placed in the recessed portion 393 is restricted from moving forward by the restricting portion 391, and is restricted from being moved inward (leftward) by the extending portion 360 of the special gear 355, so it stays in the recessed portion 393. (Figure 25).

  Here, when the upper decoration unit 200 returns from the final state to the intermediate state and to the initial state, if the gaming ball remains temporarily in the recess 393, the gaming ball is held until the upper decoration unit 200 opens next. It can not be taken out. In other words, the player can not return the ball. In addition, when the game ball is kept inside the upper decoration unit 200 in this way, the game ball bites when the upper decoration unit 200 is operated and the operation as planned can not be performed, or the upper decoration unit 200 It may be a cause of failure.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, even if the game ball is placed on the recess 393, the game ball is discharged to the outside of the upper decoration unit 200 in the process of returning the upper decoration unit 200 to the initial state. Specifically, when the lift motor 351 is driven to return the first movable decorative body 330 from the final position to the initial position, the special gear 355 rotates. Then, as shown in FIG. 26, the portion without the extending portion 360 in the special gear 355 is located inside the recessed portion 393 (left side in FIG. 26) as the first movable decorative body 330 passes the intermediate position. . That is, the inside of the recess 393 is opened (the extending portion 360 is not located inside the recess 393), and the gaming ball is rolled inward. In addition, the location without the extending part 360 in the peripheral part of the special gear 355 is called a ball | bowl relief part.

  The gaming ball rolled inward from the recess 393 passes between the first arm 370 and the second arm 380 (FIG. 26) and falls onto the upper surface 202 of the lower left portion 201L of the upper decorative unit 200 (FIG. 27). The upper surface 202 of the lower left portion 201L of the upper decorative unit 200 is inclined downward from the rear to the front, and a first inclined surface 202a curved so as to incline downward from the right (inner) to the left (outside) And a second inclined surface 202b. The gaming balls dropped from the depressions 393 first fall onto the first inclined surface 202a, and roll on the first inclined surface 202a to reach the second inclined surface 202b. Then, the second inclined surface 202 b is rolled and discharged to the outside of the upper decoration unit 200. The game balls dropped from the second inclined surface 202b may be inserted into the upper tray 34. The right end portion of the upper decorative unit 200 is symmetrical to the left end portion, and thus the description thereof is omitted. However, the configuration corresponding to the lower left portion 201L is referred to as the lower right portion 201R (FIG. 9).

  In addition, a game ball will not fit in locations other than hollow part 393 in upper decoration unit 200. For example, the gap L5 (FIG. 27) between the gear assembly member 390 and the guide plate 396 in the upper decoration unit 200 is smaller than the diameter of the gaming ball. Therefore, the game ball does not enter between the gear assembly member 390 and the guide plate 396.

  Next, the stopper mechanism for preventing the unscheduled movement of the first movable decorative body 330 will be described based on FIG. 19 and FIG. As described above, in the first movable decorative body 330, the hooking portion 340 (FIG. 19) is attached to the left and right ends of the attachment base 331. As shown in FIGS. 19 and 28, the hooking portion 340 extends from the end of the main body plate 341 opposite to the front side plate 335a of the mounting bracket 335 and the outer side (right side in the figure) of the main body plate 341. And a mounting plate 342 screwed to 336R.

  Further, at the upper front of the gear assembling member 390, a regulating portion 391 (a projecting portion) is provided. The upper front of the gear assembly member 390 is a portion covering the special gear 355, and is curved according to the shape of the gear portion 356 of the special gear 355. A restricting portion 391 protrudes upward and obliquely forward from the curved upper surface. The restricting portion 391 and the hooking portion 340 constitute a stopper mechanism.

  When the upper decorative unit 200 is in the initial state (when the first movable decorative body 330 is in the initial position), the restricting portion 391 and the hooking portion 340 are in the positional relationship shown in FIG. That is, the restricting portion 391 is in a space (a space in which the mounting bracket 335 is positioned on the front side and the locking portion 340 is positioned on the rear side) sandwiched by the mounting bracket 335 and the hooking portion 340. In other words, the restricting portion 391 is fitted between the hook portion 340 and the mounting bracket 335. However, in this state, the restricting portion 391 and the hooking portion 340 are not in contact with each other. In the first movable decorative body 330, a portion in which the restriction portion 391 formed by the hook portion 340 or the like fits is referred to as a fitting portion.

  If a predetermined amount of load (i.e., a load that causes the first movable decorative member 330 to fall) is applied to the first movable decorative member 330 at the initial position, the hooking portion 340 is It abuts on the restricting portion 391. That is, the two hooks 340 and 340 at the left and right ends of the first movable decorative body 330 are hooked on the restriction parts 391 and 391, respectively. Therefore, the first movable decorative body 330 does not largely shift from the initial position. In other words, the first movable decorative body 330 is prevented from falling off the upper decorative unit 200. Of course, even in the case where a load is applied to the first movable decorative body 330 in a direction of hanging down forward than the initial position due to a malfunction of the elevation motor 351 or the like, the two hooking portions 340, 340 are restricted by the restriction portions 391, 391. As a result, the unexpected movement of the first movable decorative body 330 is suppressed.

  In particular, in the pachinko gaming machine PY1 of this embodiment, the first movable decorative body 330 includes movable heavy objects such as the central upper unit 400, the upper left unit 500, and the upper right unit 550, so the restricting portion 391 and the hooking portion It is preferable from the viewpoint of safety that the first movable decorative body 330 be reinforced so that the first movable decorative body 330 is not completely dropped.

  When the upper decorative unit 200 is in the final state (when the first movable decorative body 330 is in the final position) or when the upper decorative unit 200 is in the intermediate state (when the first movable decorative body 330 is in the intermediate position) ), The hooks 340, 340 are in a position where they do not abut against the restricting portion 391 even if a forward load is applied to the first movable decorative body 330 (specifically, obliquely upward from the restricting portion 391) (See FIGS. 25 and 26). That is, when the first movable decorative body 330 is at the final position or the middle position, the restricting portion 391 is out of the fitting portion, and the hooking portion 340 can not be engaged with the restricting portion 391. When the first movable decorative body 330 returns to the initial position, the hooking portion 340 comes close to the rear of the restricting portion 391 (see FIG. 28), and a forward load is applied to the first movable decorative body 330 In this case, the restricting portion 391 can be engaged.

  Next, the fixed decorative body 310 in the upper decoration unit 200 will be described based on FIGS. 24 and 29 to 31. As shown in FIG. 24, the fixed decorative body 310 includes a front cover 311, a light emitting display portion 312, and a speaker unit 318. The front cover 311 is disposed on the front side of the fixed decorative body 310, and the surface visible to the player has a design of a predetermined shape. The front cover 311 is provided with an opening 311 a that allows the light emitting display unit 312 to face forward.

  As shown in FIG. 29, the light emitting display portion 312 is disposed behind the colored sheet 314 and the translucent smoked front panel 313, the colored sheet 314 disposed on the back side of the front panel 313, and the like. And a fixing portion LED substrate 316. The front panel 313 is attached to the front cover 311 so as to close the opening 311 a from the rear (FIG. 24). A plurality of LEDs (fixed part LEDs 317) are surface-mounted on the fixed part LED substrate 316. The light emitting surface of the fixing portion LED 317 is forward.

  As shown in FIG. 30A, the colored sheet 314 has a black portion 314a having almost no light transmitting property, a blue portion 314b having light transmitting property, a red portion 314c having light transmitting property, and a colored portion 314c. And an uncolored portion 314d. Thus, when the fixing portion LED 317 is not emitting light, the light emitting display portion 312 is entirely blackened by the smoke color of the front panel 313 as shown in FIG. On the other hand, when the fixing portion LED 317 emits light in blue, it emits light with the handle (pattern of the character of “CHANCE”) shown in FIG. 30C, and when the fixing portion LED 317 emits light in red. It emits light with the pattern shown in (D) (pattern of the character of "HYPER CHANCE").

  More specifically, when the colored sheet 314 has the pattern of FIG. 30C and the pattern of FIG. 30D superimposed, the portion not included in any pattern is a black portion 314a and any pattern The portion also included in this is the uncolored portion 314 d. Further, when the handle of FIG. 30C and the handle of FIG. 30D are overlapped, the portion of only the handle of FIG. 30C is used as the blue portion 314 b and only the handle of FIG. The portion is a red portion 314c.

  Therefore, when the fixing portion LED 317 emits blue light, light is transmitted through the blue portion 314b and the uncolored portion 314d, and light is not transmitted through the black portion 314a and the red portion 314c. Therefore, the pattern (pattern of the character of "CHANCE") as shown in FIG. 30C emits blue light. When the fixing portion LED 317 emits red light, light is transmitted through the red portion 314c and the uncolored portion 314d, and light is not transmitted through the black portion 314a and the blue portion 314b. Accordingly, a pattern as shown in FIG. 30D (pattern of the character of “HYPER CHANCE”) emits light in red. When the LED emits light in white, a handle as shown in FIG. 30A emits light.

  As described above, the light emitting display unit 312 can emit light to display different patterns (in the present embodiment, notice characters) in accordance with the light emitting color of the fixing portion LED 317. Therefore, it is possible to give expectation to which pattern is displayed, and to improve the game interest. In the present embodiment, the jackpot winning expectation is higher in the case where the notice character of “HYPER CHANCE” is displayed than in the case where the light emission display unit 312 displays the notice character of “CHANCE”. The display mode in which the notice character of "CHANCE" is displayed is referred to as a first display mode, and the display mode in which the notice character of "HYPER CHANCE" is displayed is referred to as a second display mode.

  The speaker unit 318 is disposed behind the front cover 311 and the light emitting display portion 312 and in front of the base plate 301, as shown in FIGS. The speaker unit 318 includes two left and right speakers 600, 600, a mesh plate 602 having two mesh portions 603 in which a plurality of holes are formed, and a support member 605 to which the speakers 600, 600 and the mesh plate 602 are fixed. Have.

  Each speaker 600 is attached to the support member 605 such that the diaphragm 601 for outputting sound is directed downward. The speaker 600 has a substantially rectangular shape in a bottom view which is longer in the left-right direction than in the front-rear direction.

  The mesh plate 602 constitutes the lower surface of the fixed decorative body 310, and has an arch shape that is the highest at the center in the left-right direction and the lowest at the left and right ends. The mesh portions 603 are provided one on each side of the mesh plate 602. The left mesh portion 603 is positioned below the diaphragm 601 of the left speaker 600, and the right mesh portion 603 is positioned below the diaphragm 601 of the right speaker 600. The mesh plate 602 protects the speaker 600 while passing the sound output from the speaker 600 by the mesh portion 603.

  In the present embodiment, the speaker 600 is disposed such that the diaphragm 601 is directed downward. Therefore, the mounting space in the front-rear direction can be made smaller than in the case where the speaker 600 is inclined and disposed so that the diaphragm 601 faces obliquely downward and forward. Further, two speakers 600, 600 are disposed with the diaphragms 601, 601 directed downward. Therefore, rather than arranging the speakers 600 so that each diaphragm 601 faces inward according to the shape of the mesh portion 603 in the arch-shaped mesh plate 602, the interference between the sounds output from the speakers 600 is suppressed. Is possible. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the inconvenience that the sound can be heard well only when the player's head is at a specific position. That is, in the present embodiment, by arranging the plurality of speakers 600 so that the diaphragm 601 faces downward, the compact arrangement of the speakers 600 (in particular, the compact arrangement of relatively large speakers) and the way to hear good sound Both.

  Further, in this embodiment, since the speaker 600 outputs the sound downward, it is possible to give an impression that the sound falls from above the player's head as compared with the configuration in which the diaphragm 601 is disposed forward It is possible to realize an unprecedented sound effect.

  In the present embodiment, when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the initial state, the rotating body 401 is located in front of the speaker 600 (FIG. 3). Therefore, at this time, the sound from the speaker 600 may be heard somewhat. On the other hand, when the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed to the intermediate state (FIG. 8) and the final state (FIG. 9), the rotating body 401 is withdrawn from the front of the speaker 600. Therefore, with the deformation of the upper decoration unit 200, the sound from the speaker 600 can be heard more clearly to the player. In this embodiment, when the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed from the initial state to the intermediate state, the first sound effect is output from the speaker 600, and when the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed from the intermediate state to the final state, The second sound effect is output from the speaker 600. Therefore, these sound effects sound clearer to the player than the sound when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the initial state. That is, in the present embodiment, a novel rendering effect in which the deformation of the upper decoration unit 200 and the change in the way the sound output from the speaker 600 is heard is linked is exhibited.

  The first sound effect and the second sound effect may be any sound effect. Also, these sound effects may be the same.

  Next, the second movable decorative body 250 in the upper decorative unit 200 will be described based on FIG. 24 and FIG. As shown in FIGS. 24 and 37, the second movable decorative body 250 includes a front decorative portion 260 disposed on the front side and a movable portion LED substrate 270 disposed rearward of the front decorative portion 260 (FIG. 37). And). A plurality of LEDs (movable portion LEDs 271) are surface mounted on the movable portion LED substrate 270 with the light emitting surface facing forward. The front side of the movable portion LED substrate 270 is covered by the front side decoration portion 260 (FIG. 24), and the rear side is covered by the case member 280 made of a colorless and transparent synthetic resin member (FIG. 37). The case member 280 is in the form of a box whose front is open. That is, the second movable decorative body 250 incorporates the movable portion LED substrate 270 in a thin plate-like housing formed by the front side decorative portion 260 and the case member 280. In addition, the engaging shaft portion 251 described above is attached to the upper portion of the left side portion and the upper portion of the right side portion of the case member 280.

  As shown in FIG. 24, the front decorative portion 260 is provided with a plurality of openings 261 so as to form a predetermined design, and each opening 261 is fitted with a lens member 263 that can transmit light. There is. When the movable portion LED 271 is made to emit light, the light is diffused by the lens member 263 and emitted forward. The design applied to the front decoration part 260 imitates the design of the front lens part 411 of the rotating body 401.

  In detail, five decorative light emitting units 265 having an octagonal design that imitates the design of the front side lens unit 411 of the rotating body 401 are provided on the second movable decorative body 250 on the left and right. On the left and right sides of each decorative light emitting unit 265, linear partitioned light emitting units 267 are provided. The movable portion LED 271 is disposed at a position overlapping the lens member 263 in the front and rear direction. The movable portion LEDs 271 emit light in various light emission colors such as white, blue, red, and rainbow colors, and emit light in various lighting methods such as lighting and blinking. For example, the light emission modes of the movable portion LED 271 include a first light emission mode that lights in blue and a second light emission mode that blinks in red. In the present embodiment, a higher jackpot winning expectation is indicated when light is emitted in the second light emission mode than when light is emitted in the first light emission mode. In addition, the light emission aspect can be changed suitably, for example, the light emission aspect which blinks at a predetermined blink speed is set as a first light emission aspect, and the light emission aspect blinks at a blink speed faster than the first light emission aspect is also set as a second light emission aspect. Good. Moreover, you may provide the specific light emission aspect made to light or blink in a rainbow color.

  In addition, the surface 260 a of the front decorative portion 260 is silver plated. Therefore, the light of the LED 271 for the movable part diffused to the lens member 263 and the light of the LED provided at a place other than the second movable decorative body 250 are reflected by the surface 260 a of the front decorative part 260 to produce a light emission effect. It is possible to enhance the effect.

  Here, the light emission effect in the present embodiment will be described based on FIG. 32 to FIG. 32 to 35 are perspective views of the upper portion (mainly the upper decoration unit 200) of the gaming machine frame 2 viewed from the bottom side, and FIG. 32 shows the upper decoration unit 200 in an initial state, FIG. 33 shows when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the intermediate state, and FIG. 34 shows when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the final state and the upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 are in the closed state, 35 shows that the upper decoration unit 200 is in the final state and the upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 are in the open state.

  As shown in FIG. 32, when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the initial state, there are three light emitting locations in the upper decoration unit 200: the rotating body 401, the upper left unit 500, and the upper right unit 550. Therefore, as the light-emitting effect using the upper decoration unit 200, a light-emitting effect that causes the front side decoration portion 410, the upper left unit 500, and the upper right unit 550 of the rotating body 401 to emit light in a predetermined light emission mode is performed. In addition, light emission locations other than the upper decoration unit 200 such as the left middle decoration portion 211 and the right middle decoration portion 221 also emit light in a predetermined light emission mode.

  When the upper decoration unit 200 is changed from the initial state to the middle state, as shown in FIG. 33, the light emitting display portion 312 in the fixed decoration 310 is exposed so as to be visible from the player. In this state, in addition to the light emission effect when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the initial state, a light emission effect for displaying “CHANCE” in the light emission display portion 312 or a light emission effect for emitting and displaying “HYPER CHANCE” is also executed. Ru. In other words, the number of light emission locations is increased to four of the rotating body 401, the upper left unit 500, the upper right unit 550, and the light emitting display portion 312. Moreover, not only the number of light emitting parts is increased, but also a new light emitting part appears and light is emitted, so that the light emitting range is expanded.

  When the upper decoration unit 200 is further transformed from the intermediate state to the final state, as shown in FIG. 34, the second movable decorative body 250 is exposed so as to be visible from the player. In this state, in addition to the light emission effect when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the intermediate state, a light emission effect in which the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267 emit light is also executed. That is, the number of light emitting portions is increased to five of the rotating body 401, the upper left unit 500, the upper right unit 550, the light emitting display portion 312, and the second movable decorative body 250 (the decorative light emitting portion 265 and the partition light emitting portion 267). Also in this case, not only the number of light emitting portions is increased, but also a new light emitting portion appears and light is emitted, so that the light emitting range is expanded.

  When the upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 are deformed from the closed state to the open state when the upper decorative unit 200 is in the final state, as shown in FIG. 35, the left mirror surface 527 (an example of the reflector) The right mirror surface 577 (an example of a reflector) is exposed. In the present embodiment, the central upper unit 400 is also provided with a central mirror surface 599 (an example of a reflector) from the lower left to the lower right of the rotating body 401. The left and right portions of the central mirror surface portion 599 are invisible to the player when the upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 are in the closed state (FIG. 34), but the upper left unit 500 and the upper right The unit unit 550 is exposed by being in an open state (FIG. 35).

  In this state, light of various lamps such as the upper left frame lamp 528 of the upper left unit 500 and the upper right frame lamp 578 of the upper right unit 550 is transmitted to each mirror surface (left mirror surface 527, right mirror surface 577, central mirror surface 599). To reflect). In addition, these lights are also reflected on the surface 260 a of the front decorative portion 260 in the second movable decorative body 250. Therefore, a wider range in the upper decoration unit 200 is illuminated than in the state shown in FIG. 34 (the state in which the upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 are in the closed state).

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the light emission locations increase stepwise (the light emission region gradually expands) according to the deformation of the upper decoration unit 200. Specifically, the deformation is performed in four stages shown in FIGS. Moreover, in this embodiment, the upper decoration unit 200 extends forward and upward so as to gradually cover the player's head (FIG. 10). Therefore, it is possible to perform a novel light emission effect in which the overhead of the player is covered more and more brightly. This makes it possible to improve the game interest.

  Next, the routing of the characteristic harness 900 in the present embodiment will be described based on FIG. 36 to FIG. In the pachinko gaming machine PY1 of this embodiment, the first movable decorative body 330 to be moved up and down includes a plurality of rendering means (the central upper unit 400, the upper left unit 500, and the upper right unit 550) (FIG. 32). As described above, various effects such as a lamp (LED), a motor, and a sensor are mounted on these effect means. These electrical components are connected to the effect control board 120 described later, and controlled by the effect control board 120. Specifically, the electric components mounted on the central upper unit 400, the upper left unit 500, and the upper right unit 550 are connected to the movable body relay substrate 182 shown in FIG. 182 is connected to a frame upper relay board 180 described later.

The movable body relay substrate 182 is disposed at the center of the mounting base 331 in the left-right direction. The harness 900 has one end (connector 901 on the left side in the drawing) connected to the movable body relay substrate 182 and is passed through a hole 332 provided in the upper right portion of the mounting base 331. It is taken care of on the back side.

  FIG. 37 is a perspective view of the front door 23 seen from the rear when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the final state, and FIG. 38 is a view of the front door 23 seen from the rear when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the intermediate state. FIG. FIG. 39 is a perspective view of the front door 23 as viewed from the rear when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the initial state. As shown in FIGS. 37 and 38, on the back side of the mounting base 331, the harness 900 is housed in the harness case 910, and provided at the left end of the case member 280 (the case of the movable portion LED substrate 270). It is stored in the harness storage portion 282. The storage portion of the movable portion LED substrate 270 in the case member 280 is referred to as a substrate storage portion 281. The harness storage portion 282 is located to the left of the substrate storage portion 281.

  The harness case 910 moves in accordance with the operation when the first movable decorative body 330 is displaced between the intermediate position and the final position (FIGS. 37 and 38). When the upper decoration unit 200 is in the middle state (FIG. 38), the longitudinal direction is in the left and right direction, but when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the final state (FIG. 37), it is inclined downward from right to left It will be in a state of When the upper decoration unit 200 is in the initial state (FIG. 39), the longitudinal direction is in the horizontal direction, as in the intermediate state.

  In detail, as shown in FIGS. 40 and 41, the harness case 910 has a substantially rectangular shape with a thin thickness in the front-rear direction and a longitudinal direction in the left-right direction, and a bottom end cylindrical right end 912 with an open front. (Shaft portion 912) and a thin hollow case body portion 916 in communication with the shaft portion 912. An opening 918 is provided at the left end 917 of the case main body 916 in order to pass the harness 900. Further, as shown in FIG. 42, a substantially cylindrical sliding portion 920 is attached to the front side of the left end portion 917 of the case main body portion 916.

  The shaft-like portion 912 of the harness case 910 is rotatably attached to the mounting base 331 so as to communicate with the hole 332 of the mounting base 331, as shown in FIGS. As shown in FIG. 42, the sliding portion 920 is slidably fitted in a horizontally elongated long hole portion 284 (long hole portion 284 whose longitudinal direction is in the left-right direction) provided in the upper left portion of the case member 280. ing. That is, the harness case 910 is connected to the first movable decorative body 330 (mounting base 331) and the second movable decorative body 250, and in the elongated hole portion 284 according to the movement of the first movable decorative body 330. A link is configured to rotate around the shaft-like portion 912 as the sliding portion 920 slides. There is a gap between the case body 916 and the mounting base 331 (FIG. 41).

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 40 and 41, the upper end portion of the case member 280 (the portion on the right side of the long hole portion 284) has a shape in which the harness case 910 can be fitted. That is, the upper end portion of the case member 280 can be fitted with a curved fitting portion 286 recessed in a U-shape when viewed from the rear and a substantially rectangular case main body portion 916 so that the shaft-like portion 912 can be fitted. And a rectangular fitting portion 287 whose longitudinal cross section along the front-rear direction is L-shaped. The curved fitting portion 286 and the rectangular fitting portion 287 are collectively referred to as a case fitting portion 288.

  When the upper decorative unit 200 is in the initial state (FIG. 39) or in the intermediate state (FIG. 38), the harness case 910 is fitted in the case fitting portion 288. That is, the shaft-like portion 912 of the harness case 910 is fitted to the curved fitting portion 286, and the case main body portion 916 is fitted to the rectangular fitting portion 287. In this state, the sliding portion 920 (left end portion 917) is at the left end in the long hole portion 284. In this state, the longitudinal direction of the harness case 910 is parallel to the upper side of the mounting base 331, and the position of the upper end of the harness case 910 substantially matches the position of the upper end of the mounting base 331. That is, when the upper decorative unit 200 is in the initial state or in the intermediate state, the harness case 910 is positioned behind the first movable decorative body 330 without protruding above the mounting base 331. Further, in this state, the case upper edge 287a (FIG. 40) constituting the rectangular fitting portion 287 is inserted between the case body 916 and the mounting base 331.

  When the first movable decorative body 330 moves from the intermediate position to the final position (FIG. 37), the harness case 910 rotates clockwise with respect to the shaft-like portion 912 as viewed from the rear, and the sliding portion 920 (left end portion 917) moves in the long hole portion 284 of the case member 280 to the right end. When the first movable decorative body 330 is in the final position, the harness case 910 is inclined downward from right to left behind the mounting base 331.

  As described above, the case member 280 includes the board storage portion 281 for storing the movable portion LED substrate 270 and the harness storage portion 282 for storing a part of the harness 900. The harness storage portion 282 is provided at the left end portion of the case member 280 (left of the substrate storage portion 281). The harness storage portion 282 has openings (upper opening 282a and lower opening 282b) for passing the harness 900 on the upper side and the lower side (FIG. 42). The storage width W31 of the harness storage portion 282 is wider than the opening widths of the upper opening 282a and the lower opening 282b. As shown in FIG. 37, in the harness storage portion 282, the storage length L1 is shorter than the storage length L2 of the harness case 910, and the storage width W31 is larger than the storage width W32 of the harness case 910.

  The storage width W <b> 31 of the harness storage portion 282 is wide in order to allow deflection of the harness 900. That is, the harness 900 can be bent or extended in the harness storage portion 282 in accordance with the lifting and lowering operation of the first movable decorative body 330 (FIGS. 37 and 38). On the other hand, the harness case 910 is configured to be relatively narrow (about the width of the harness 900) so that it can be stored without bending the harness 900.

  Thus, in this embodiment, the harness 900 connected to the movable body relay substrate 182 on the front side of the mounting base 331 (FIG. 36) is routed from the hole 332 of the mounting base 331 to the back side of the mounting base 331 , And are stored in the harness case 910 and the harness storage portion 282 on the back side of the mounting base 331 (FIG. 37). A portion of the harness 900 extending downward from the lower opening 282 b (FIG. 42) of the harness storage 282 is wired along the left end of the front door 23 and connected to the frame upper relay substrate 180. It shall be done.

  Here, when the upper decorative unit 200 is in the initial state or in the intermediate state, the harness 900 spreads laterally in the harness storage portion 282 (is bent, see FIG. 38). Then, when the upper decorative unit 200 reaches the final state from the intermediate state (when the first movable decorative body 330 moves from the intermediate position to the final position), the movable body relay substrate 182 provided on the first movable decorative body 330; Since the distance to the frame upper relay substrate 180 becomes long, the harness 900 is pulled, and the amount of bending of the harness 900 in the harness storage portion 282 decreases (see FIG. 37). That is, the harness 900 in the harness storage portion 282 is in a state of being stretched more than when the first movable decorative body 330 is at the initial position or the middle position. When the first movable decorative body 330 returns from the final position to the intermediate position, the harness 900 bends again in the harness storage portion 282.

  Even when the first movable decorative body 330 is moved up and down, the harness 900 in the harness case 910 hardly bends, breaks or stretches (FIGS. 37 and 38). Further, in the harness 900 on the front side of the mounting base 331 (the harness 900 disposed around the movable body relay substrate 182) (FIG. 36), bending, breakage, elongation, and the like hardly occur. That is, in the harness 900, most of the portion that expands and contracts according to the raising and lowering operation of the first movable decorative body 330 is a portion stored in the harness storage portion 282.

Except for the game control board 100, any of a plurality of boards shown in FIGS. 43 to 45 may be configured as one board, or one board illustrated in FIGS. 43 to 45 may be configured as a plurality of boards. good.

4. Description of jackpot, etc. In the pachinko gaming machine PY1 of the present embodiment, there are "jackpot" and "off" as a result of the jackpot lottery (special symbol lottery). In the case of "big hit", the "big hit symbol" is stopped and displayed on the special view display 81. In the case of "disengagement", the "losing symbol" is stopped and displayed on the special view display 81. When the jackpot is won, a "big hit game" is executed in which the big winning opening 14 is opened with an opening pattern according to the type (type of big hit) of the special symbol stopped and displayed. The jackpot game is also called a special game.

  In the jackpot game, in this embodiment, a plurality of round games (unit opening game), an opening before the first round game is started (also referred to as OP), and an ending after the final round game is over (Also denoted as ED). Each round game starts with the end of the OP or the end of the previous round game, and ends with the start of the next round game or the start of the ED. The closing time (interval time) of the winning opening during the round game is included in the opening round game before the closing.

  There are several types of jackpots. The type of jackpot is as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 46, the present embodiment is roughly divided into two types. The odds are a big hit and usually a big hit. The probability variation jackpot is a jackpot that controls the gaming state after the jackpot game to a high probability state described later. The normal jackpot is a jackpot that controls the gaming state after the jackpot game to a normal probability state (low probability state) described later.

  More specifically, the probability change jackpot and normal jackpot that can be won in the special figure 1 lottery (the first special symbol lottery), from 1R to 8R open the big winning opening 14 for up to 29.5 seconds per 1R 9R to 16R are jackpots that open the big winning opening 14 for up to 0.1 seconds per 1R. That is, although the total number of rounds of these jackpots is 16R, the substantial number of rounds is 8R. The substantial number of rounds refers to the number of rounds in which the game ball can win the game up to the maximum number of winnings per round (8 in this embodiment). In these jackpots from 9R to 16R, the opening time of the big winning opening 14 is extremely short, making it an unforeseeable round of winning balls. In addition, when it is elected by a lottery of the special figure 1, it is stopped and displayed “the special figure 1 _ definite strange symbol” on the 1st special figure indicator 81a, when it is elected as “the usual big hit”, The “special figure 1_normal symbol” is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display 81a.

  Moreover, the probability change big hit and the normal big hit which can be won by the drawing of the special figure 2 (drawing of the second special symbol) are the big hit opening the big winning opening 14 from 1R to 16R for up to 29.5 seconds per 1R. That is, these jackpots also have a substantial number of rounds of 16R. If the special figure 2 wins the "probable variation big hit", the second special figure display 81b stops displaying the "special figure 2 _ probability variation symbol", and if the "normal big hit" is won, the second "Special figure 2_ normal symbol" is stopped and displayed on special figure indicator 81b.

  Regardless of which jackpot is won, after the jackpot game, it is controlled to the electric support control state (high base state) described later. The power-supply control state continues until the next jackpot win if it is controlled according to the high probability state. On the other hand, in the case of control according to the normal probability state (low probability state), the number of times of power support (time reduction number) is set to 100 times. The number of times of power support is the number of times of upper limit execution of the fluctuation display of the special symbol in the power support control state.

  As shown in FIG. 46, the distribution ratios of jackpots in the drawing of the special figure 1 and the drawing of the special drawing 2 are both 65% for the probability change jackpot and 35% for the normal jackpot. However, when the jackpot is won based on the drawing of the special figure 1, while the jackpot game of which the actual number of rounds is eight rounds is executed, when the jackpot is won based on the drawing of the special figure 2 It is set that the lottery of the special figure 2 is more advantageous for the player than the lottery of the special figure 1 in that the jackpot game of 16 rounds is executed.

  Here, in the pachinko gaming machine PY1, a lottery for determining whether or not a jackpot is performed is performed based on the "jackpot random number", and a lottery for winning jackpot type is performed based on the "hit type random number". As shown in FIG. 47A, the jackpot random number takes a value in the range of 0 to 65535. The hit type random number takes a value in the range of 0 to 99. The random numbers acquired based on the winning on the first starting opening 11 or the second starting opening 12 include “reach random numbers” and “variation pattern random numbers” in addition to the jackpot random number and the per type random number.

  The reach random number is a random number that determines whether or not reach is to be generated in the effect design variation effect indicating the result when the result of the jackpot determination is a loss. The reach is a state in which one of the plurality of effect symbols is displayed as the remaining variable symbols are displayed, and the jackpot is won depending on which symbol the variable symbols being displayed are stopped and displayed. It is the state (for example, the state of "7 7 7") which becomes a combination of the effect design shown. In addition, the effect pattern stopped and displayed in the reach state may be displayed so as to be slightly shaken in the display screen 50a, or may be displayed so as to repeat enlargement and reduction. This reach random number takes a value in the range of 0-255.

  Further, the variation pattern random number is a random number for determining a variation pattern including a variation time. The fluctuation pattern random number takes a value in the range of 0 to 99. Further, the random numbers acquired based on the passage to the gate 13 include the normal symbol random numbers (performing random numbers) shown in FIG. 47 (B). The normal symbol random number is a random number for a lottery (normal symbol lottery) as to whether or not to perform the auxiliary game to open the electric chew 12D. Normal symbol random numbers take values in the range of 0-65535.

5. Description of gaming state Next, the gaming state of the pachinko gaming machine PY1 of the present embodiment will be described. The special view display 81 and the common view display 82 of the pachinko gaming machine PY 1 have a probability change function and a change time shortening function, respectively. The state in which the probability fluctuation function of the special view display 81 is operating is referred to as a "high probability state", and the state not operating is referred to as a "normal probability state (non-high probability state)". In the high probability state, the jackpot probability is higher than the normal probability state. That is, the jackpot determination is performed using the jackpot determination table in which the value of the jackpot random number determined to be the jackpot is larger than the jackpot determination table used in the normal probability state (see FIG. 48A). That is, when the probability change function of the special view display 81 is activated, the probability that the display result of the variable display of the special symbol by the special view display 81 (that is, the stop pattern) becomes a big hit design Becomes higher.

  Further, a state in which the fluctuation time shortening function of the special view display 81 is operating is referred to as "time saving state", and a state in which the variation time shortening function is not operating is referred to as "non time saving state". In the time saving state, the variation time of the special symbol (the time from the start of the variation display to the time of derivation display of the display result) is shorter than the non-time saving state. That is, the variation pattern is determined using a variation pattern table defined such that the selection of a variation pattern having a short variation time is greater than in the non-short time state (see FIG. 49). That is, when the fluctuation time shortening function of the special view display 81 is activated, a short fluctuation time can be easily selected as the fluctuation time of the variable display of the special symbol, as compared to when it is not activated. As a result, in the time saving state, the pace of the special figure reserve is increased, and a valid winning to the starting opening (a prize that can be stored as the special figure reserve) is easily generated. Therefore, it is possible to aim for a jackpot under the progress of a smooth game.

  The probability fluctuation function and the fluctuation time shortening function of the special view display 81 may operate at the same time, or only one of them may operate. The probability fluctuation function and the fluctuation time shortening function of the common drawing display 82 are operated in synchronization with the fluctuation time shortening function of the special drawing display 81. That is, the probability fluctuation function and the fluctuation time shortening function of the general display 82 operate in the short time state and do not operate in the short time state. Therefore, in the time saving state, the winning probability in the normal symbol lottery is higher than in the non-time saving state. That is, the hit determination (determination of the normal symbol) is performed using the normal symbol collision determination table in which the value of the normal symbol random number (hit random number) determined to be a hit is greater than the normal symbol hit determination table used in the non-short time state See FIG. 48 (C)). In other words, when the probability fluctuation function of the generic display 82 is activated, the probability that the display result of the variable display of the normal symbol by the generic display 82 will normally be a symbol is higher than when it is not activated. .

  Moreover, in the time saving state, the fluctuation time of the normal symbol is shorter than the non-time saving state. In the present embodiment, the fluctuation time of the normal symbol is 7 seconds in the non-short time state, but is 1 second in the short time state (see FIG. 48 (D)). Furthermore, in the time saving state, the open time of the electric chow 12D in the auxiliary game is longer than in the non-time short state (see FIG. 50). That is, the open time extension function of the electric chew 12D is activated. In addition, in the time saving state, the number of times of opening the electric chow 12D in the auxiliary game is greater than in the non-time short state (see FIG. 50). That is, the function of increasing the number of times of opening the electric tube 12D is activated.

  In the situation where the probability fluctuation function and fluctuation time shortening function of the general display 82 and the open time extension function and open frequency increase function of the electric Chu 12D are activated, compared with the case where these functions are not activated. The electric chow 12D is frequently opened, and the gaming ball is frequently prized at the second starting opening 12. As a result, the base which is the ratio of the number of winning balls to the number of firing balls becomes high. Therefore, the state in which these functions are operating is referred to as the "high base state", and the non-operating state is referred to as the "low base state". In the high base state, it is possible to aim for a jackpot without significantly reducing the number of game balls on hand. The high base state is a state in which so-called power supply control (control to support winning of the second starting opening 12 by the power control 12D) is being executed. Therefore, the high base state is also referred to as a power supply control state or an easy ball entering state. On the other hand, the low base state is also referred to as a non-electric support control state or a non-entering easy state.

  The high base state may not activate all the functions described above. That is, the operation of one or more functions among the probability change function of the common drawing display 82, the change time shortening function of the common drawing display 82, the open time extension function of the electric chew 12D, and the open frequency increase function of the electric chew 12D. Thus, the electric chew 12D may be more easily released than when the function is not activated. Also, the high base state may be independently controlled without being associated with the short time state.

  In the pachinko gaming machine PY1 of the present embodiment, the gaming state after the jackpot game by the winning of the odd variation jackpot is the high probability state and the time saving state and the high base state. This gaming state is particularly called "high probability high base state". The high-accuracy high-base state ends when the variable display of the special symbol is executed a predetermined number of times (10,000 times in the present embodiment) or the jackpot is won and the jackpot game is executed. That is, in the present embodiment, the high probability high base state continues substantially until the next jackpot win. It is to be noted that the termination condition of the high probability / high base state may be a jackpot and the jackpot game may be executed.

  In addition, the gaming state after the jackpot game by the winning of the normal jackpot is a normal probability state (non-high probability state or low probability state) and a short time state and high base state. This gaming state is particularly referred to as "low probability high base state". The low probability high base state ends when the variable display of the special symbol is executed a predetermined number of times (100 times in the present embodiment) or the jackpot is won and the jackpot game is executed.

  When the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is played for the first time, the gaming state after the power is turned on is the normal probability state, the non-time-shortening state, and the low base state. This gaming state is particularly called "low probability low base state". The low probability low base state is referred to as a "normal game state". In addition, the state during the execution of the special game (big hit game) is referred to as "special game state (big hit game state)". Further, a state controlled to at least one of the high probability state and the high base state is referred to as a "special game state".

  In a high base state such as a high probability high base state or a low probability high base state, it is possible to advantageously advance the game if the game ball is made to enter the right gaming area 6R (see FIG. 5) by right hitting. This is because the electric control 12D is more easily released than the low base state by the electric support control, and the winning of the second starting opening 12 is easier than the winning of the first starting opening 11. . Therefore, the game ball is passed to the gate 13 which is a trigger for the normal symbol lottery, and the right strike is performed to win the game ball to the second starting opening 12. As a result, it is possible to obtain a large number of start winnings (winnings on the starting opening) rather than hitting the left. In the pachinko gaming machine PY1, the game is played by right-handed even during the big hit game.

  On the other hand, in the low base state, it is possible to advance the game more advantageously if the game ball is made to enter the left gaming area 6L (see FIG. 5) by left hitting. Since the power support control is not executed, it is difficult to open the power choke 12D compared to the high base state, and it is easier to win the first starting opening 11 than winning the second starting opening 12 It is because it has become. Therefore, in order to win the game ball in the first starting opening 11, a left strike is performed. This makes it possible to obtain a large number of starting winnings rather than right-handed.

6. Operation of Pachinko Machine PY1 Next, the operation of the game control microcomputer 101 will be described based on FIG. 51, and the operation of the effect control microcomputer 121 will be described based on FIG. 52 and FIG. First, the operation of the game control microcomputer 101 will be described.

  [Main-side timer interrupt processing] The gaming control microcomputer 101 repeats the main-side timer interrupt processing shown in FIG. 51 every short time, for example, 4 msec. First, the game control microcomputer 101 determines the jackpot random number used for the jackpot lottery, the hit type random number for deciding the type of the jackpot, the reach random number for deciding whether or not to be in the reach state in the effect symbol variation production, and the fluctuation pattern. A random number updating process is performed to update the variation pattern random number, the normal symbol random number (per random number) and the like used in the normal symbol lottery (S101). Note that at least a part of each random number may be a so-called hardware random number generated using a known random number generation circuit including a counter IC or the like. If all the random numbers are hardware random numbers, there is no need to update the random numbers by software. In addition, the random number generation circuit may be incorporated in the game control microcomputer 101.

  Next, the gaming control microcomputer 101 performs an input process (S102). In the input process (S102), various sensors (a first starting opening sensor 11a, a second starting opening sensor 12a, a special winning opening sensor 14a, a general winning opening sensor 10a, etc.) mainly attached to the pachinko gaming machine PY1 (FIG. )) Is read, and payout data for paying out a prize ball according to the type of the winning opening is set in a predetermined storage area of the game RAM 104.

  Subsequently, the game control microcomputer 101 executes a start opening sensor detection process (S103), a special operation process (S104), and a normal operation process (S105). In the starting opening sensor detection process (S103), if there is a winning detection by the first starting opening sensor 11a or the second starting opening sensor 12a, it is indicated that there are less than four pending memories corresponding to the starting opening where the winning detection was made. As a condition, random numbers such as a big hit random number (big hit random number, hit type random number, reach random number, and fluctuation pattern random number (see FIG. 47A)) are acquired. In addition, if there is passage detection by the gate sensor 13a, a normal symbol random number (see FIG. 47B) is acquired on condition that the number of common drawing reservations is less than four.

  In the special operation processing (S104), random numbers such as the jackpot random numbers obtained in the starting opening sensor detection processing (S103) are detected using predetermined determination tables (see FIGS. 46, 48A, 48B, and 49). judge. And display (a change display and a stop display) of the special symbol for showing the result of a big hit lottery is performed. At the time of displaying this special symbol, the variation start command including the information of the variation pattern of the variation display of the special symbol is set in a predetermined storage area of the gaming RAM 104. And, as a result of the determination of the jackpot random number, when the jackpot has been won, the jackpot game to open the jackpot 14 according to a predetermined opening pattern (opening time and opening number, see FIG. 46) according to the type of jackpot Play (special game). At the time of execution of this jackpot game, an opening command including information on the type of the jackpot symbol that has won is set in a predetermined storage area of the gaming RAM 104. In the special operation process (S104), when the random number such as the big hit random number is not stored, a customer waiting standby command for causing the microcomputer 121 for effect control to execute customer waiting effect is set.

  In the normal operation process (S105), the normal symbol random number acquired in the starting opening sensor detection process (S103) is determined using a predetermined determination table (see FIG. 48C). And the display (a change display and a stop display) of the normal symbol for alerting | reporting the determination result is performed. As a result of the determination of the normal symbol random number, when the normal winning symbol has been elected, the auxiliary game to open the electric chew 12D according to the predetermined opening pattern (opening time or number of opening, see FIG. 50) according to the gaming state Do.

  Next, the game control microcomputer 101 performs an output process (S106) of outputting a command or the like set in each process described above to the effect control board 120 or the like.

  In parallel with the above-described processing in the game control microcomputer 101, the effect control microcomputer 121 performs the processing shown in FIGS. The operation of the effect control microcomputer 121 will be described below.

  [Sub-Side Timer Interrupt Process] The effect control microcomputer 121 repeats the sub-timer interrupt process as shown in FIG. 52 at predetermined short intervals. In the sub timer interrupt process, first, a received command analysis process (S1001) is performed.

  [Receiving Command Analysis Processing] As shown in FIG. 53, in the receiving command analysis processing (S1001), the effect control microcomputer 121 first determines whether or not a change start command has been received from the game control microcomputer 101 (S1101) ). If it has not been received, the process proceeds to step S1104, but if it has been received, the variation effect pattern selection process (S1102) is performed.

  In the fluctuation effect pattern selection process (S1102), while acquiring the random number for fluctuation effect pattern determination, one table is selected based on the analysis result of the fluctuation start command and the like, and the acquired fluctuation effect using the selected table By determining the pattern determination random number, the variation presentation pattern is selected. The data indicating the selected variation effect pattern is stored in a predetermined storage area of the effect RAM 124. By selecting this fluctuation presentation pattern, the contents of the presentation are determined including details such as the presence or absence of execution of the light emission presentation and the movable body drive presentation (the movable presentation) during the fluctuation presentation and the timing thereof.

  In addition, the effect to make the panel lamp 54 emit light, the frame lamp (the lower right frame lamp 234, the right middle frame lamp 222, the upper right frame lamp 578, the lower left frame lamp 232, the left middle frame lamp 212, the upper left frame lamp 528 There is an effect of causing the first central frame lamp 428, the second central frame lamp 448, the fixed portion LED 317, and the movable portion LED 271) to emit light. In the movable body drive effect, there are effects for operating the board movable body 55k and effects for operating the frame movable body (lifting unit 300, upper center unit 400, upper left unit 500, upper right unit 550).

  Next, the effect control microcomputer 121 sets a change effect start command for starting the change effect according to the change effect pattern selected in step S1102 in a predetermined storage area of the effect RAM 124 (S1103). Then, the process proceeds to step S1104.

  In step S1104, the effect control microcomputer 121 determines whether an opening command has been received from the game control microcomputer 101 or not. If not received, the process proceeds to step S1107, but if received, the jackpot effect pattern selection process (S1105) is performed.

  In the jackpot effect pattern selection process (S1105), based on the analysis result of the opening command, the effect pattern (jackpot effect pattern) of the jackpot effect to be executed during the jackpot game is selected. The data indicating the jackpot effect pattern selected here is stored in a predetermined storage area of the effect RAM 124. By the selection of the jackpot effect pattern, the contents of the effect are determined including details such as the presence or absence of execution of the light emission effect or the movable body drive effect during the jackpot game and the timing thereof.

  Next, the effect control microcomputer 121 sets a jackpot effect start command for starting the jackpot effect in the jackpot effect pattern selected in step S1105 in a predetermined storage area of the effect RAM 124 (S1106). Thereafter, processing based on another received command is performed as another processing (S1107), and the received command analysis processing is ended.

  Returning to FIG. 52, the effect control microcomputer 121 performs command transmission processing (S1002) following the received command analysis processing (S1001). In the command transmission process (S1002), various commands set in the reception command analysis process are transmitted to the image control board 140. When the command transmission process is executed, the image control board 140 that has received the command executes various effects (such as a fluctuation effect, a jackpot effect, a customer waiting effect, etc.) using the image display device 50. For example, the image control board 140 that has received the change presentation start command set in step S1103 executes change presentation of the content specified in the change presentation start command.

  Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 121 performs audio processing (S1003). In the sound processing (S1003), the sound data (data for controlling the output of the sound from the speaker 600, the sound, the sound effect, etc., is output to cause the speaker 600 to output the sound etc. ) Or output to the voice control board 161.

  In particular, in the present embodiment, when the upper decorative unit 200 is deformed, a specific sound effect (the first sound effect or the second sound effect described above) is output from the speaker 600.

  Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 121 performs lamp processing (S1005). In the lamp processing (S1005), the panel lamp 54 and various frame lamps (lower right frame lamp 234, right middle frame lamp 222, upper right frame lamp 578, lower left frame at the timing matching the effects of the effect pattern selected in the received command analysis process Lamp drive data (panel lamp 54) to make the frame lamp 232, left middle frame lamp 212, upper left frame lamp 528, first center frame lamp 428, second center frame lamp 448, fixed part LED 317, movable part LED 271 emit light Or, data for controlling the light emission of the frame lamp is created or output to the sub drive substrate 162.

  In particular, in the present embodiment, when the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed from the initial state to the intermediate state, the fixing portion LED 317 of the light emitting display portion 312 emits light in blue or red. When the upper decorative unit 200 is to be transformed from the intermediate state to the final state, the movable portion LEDs 271 of the second movable decorative body 250 are caused to emit light in a predetermined light emission mode (the first light emission mode or the second light emission mode described above). When the upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 are deformed from the closed state to the open state, the upper left frame lamp 528 of the upper left unit 500 and the upper right frame lamp 578 of the upper right unit 550 have specific light emission modes ( It emits light with a different emission color from that in the closed state). In addition, when the rotating body 401 is caused to perform the reverse operation and the texture operation, the second center frame lamp 448 is caused to emit light in a specific light emission mode (rainbow color). Even when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the initial state, the first central frame lamp 428 of the rotating body 401, the upper left frame lamp 528 of the upper left unit 500, the upper right frame lamp 578 of the upper right unit 550, and the left middle frame The various frame lamps such as the lamp 212, the right middle frame lamp 222, the lower left frame lamp 232, and the lower right frame lamp 234 are caused to emit light in a predetermined light emission mode (for example, single color). The light emission aspect of the lamp mentioned above can be changed suitably.

  Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 121 performs movable body processing (S1006). In the movable body processing (S1006), the panel movable body 55k or various frame movable bodies (lifting unit 300, upper central unit 400, upper left upper unit 500, upper right corner) at timing matching the effects of the effect pattern selected in the received command analysis process The movable body drive data (data for controlling the operation of the movable board 55k and the movable frame) are generated or output to the sub drive substrate 162 in order to drive the unit unit 550).

  Specifically, at the appearance timing of the movable board 55k, movable body drive data (appeared drive data) for moving the movable board 55k from the standby position to the operation position is output to the sub drive substrate 162, If it is the return timing of the movable body 55 k, movable body drive data (return drive data) for moving the panel movable body 55 k from the operation position to the standby position is output to the sub drive substrate 162. Thereby, a predetermined board movable body drive effect is performed.

  Further, when the upper decoration unit 200 is to be deformed from the initial state to the intermediate state, to be changed from the intermediate state to the final state, conversely to return to the initial state, etc., movable body drive data (lifting The data for driving the motor 351 is output to the sub drive substrate 162.

  When the upper left unit 500 (left movable body 510) or the upper right unit 550 (right movable body 560) is to be deformed from the closed state to the open state, various conditions such as returning from the open state to the closed state The movable body drive data (data for driving the upper left motor 531 and the upper right motor 581) according to the operation is output to the sub drive substrate 162. Also, when the left upper unit 500 (left side movable body 510) or the upper right unit 550 (right side movable body 560) performs a turning operation described later, movable body drive data (upper left portion motor 531 or upper right portion) corresponding to the turning operation. The data for driving the motor 581 is output to the sub drive substrate 162.

  In addition, in the case where the rotating body 401 performs the back and forth rotation operation (reversing operation) and the back side lens unit 431 performs the left and right rotation operation (squeezing operation), the front side decorative portion 410 of the rotating body 401 is directed forward. When returning to the state, etc., movable body drive data (data for driving the first central upper motor 461 and the second central upper motor 494) according to various operations are output to the sub drive substrate 162. Further, in the case of causing the rotating body 401 to perform the operation (rotation operation) of the above-described operation pattern B (FIG. 16), the movable body drive data (data for driving the first central upper motor 461) corresponding to the operation is Output to the sub drive board 162.

  In this embodiment, the first operation for changing the upper decoration unit 200 from the initial state to the intermediate state, the second operation for changing the intermediate state to the final state, and the upper left unit 500 in the final state There are cases where the third operation of deforming the upper right unit 550 from the closed state to the open state and the fourth operation of causing the rotating body 401 to perform the reverse operation and the texture operation are performed. For example, the first operation is performed before the development of the SP reach, the second operation is performed at the development of the SP reach, the third operation is performed as a so-called chance increase in the middle of the SP reach, and the fourth operation is the SP reach's It is performed at the end of the game (for example, in the SP reach of a battle effect in which an ally character and an enemy character battle), the timing at which it is branched to victory at a turning point of victory or defeat, that is, timing of notification of a big hit. According to this, as the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed, the jackpot can be expected to have a jackpot, so it is possible to improve the game interest.

  Note that SP reach (super reach) is a reach effect that indicates that the fluctuation time after the reach is longer than that of the normal reach and indicates a jackpot winning expectation higher than that of the normal reach (see FIG. 49). In the present embodiment, the SP reach is developed through normal reach. Further, in this embodiment, the turning operation of the rotating body 401 is increased before the first operation during one time of the variable effect production, between the first operation and the second operation, or between the second operation and the third operation. It may be done as.

  Maintain timing of deformation from the initial state to the intermediate state, timing of deformation from the intermediate state to the final state, timing of return from the final state to the intermediate state, timing of return from the intermediate state to the initial state, and intermediate state The period and the period for maintaining the final state can be changed as appropriate. Also, the opening timing from the closing state of the upper left unit 500 to the opening state, the closing timing from the opening state to the closing state, the period during which the opening state is maintained, the opening timing from the closing state to the opening state of the upper right unit 550, opening The closing timing from the state to the closing state and the period for maintaining the open state can be changed as appropriate. In addition, the execution timing of the reversing operation and the texture operation of the rotating body 401 and the execution timing of the turning operation can be changed as appropriate.

  Specifically, for example, the respective units of the lifting unit 300, the upper left unit 500, the upper right unit 550, and the central upper unit 400 are operated at the time of development of the SP reach, operated at the big hit notification, or to the high probability state. It can be operated to notify transition decision. In addition, the lifting unit 300, the upper left unit 500, the upper right unit 550, and the central upper unit 400 may be maintained in the state after deformation during the big hit, or may be maintained in the state after deformation during the high probability state. it can.

  In addition, as a switch effect (button effect) for causing the player to press the input unit 40k (effect button) by a predetermined operation method (one-shot press, continuous hit, long press, etc.), movable body drive effect using a frame movable body or A light emission effect using a frame lamp may be performed. Alternatively, as the customer waiting effect, a movable body drive effect using a frame movable body or a light emission effect using a frame lamp may be performed.

  Also, for example, in the case of the jackpot fluctuation (the fluctuation based on the jackpot winning), the upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 are controlled to the open state while the upper decoration unit 200 is in the initial state. The operation may be performed. In this case, in the subsequent jackpot game, the upper decoration unit 200 is controlled to an intermediate state while the upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 are open, and then the upper decoration unit is shifted to the high probability state thereafter. 200 may be controlled to the final state. If configured in this way, it is possible to improve the fun with the novel appearance that the gaming machine frame 2 (the front door 23) rises upward as the game progresses while the big hit changes, the big hit game, the high probability state and so on. It is. In addition, when it does not shift to a high probability state after a jackpot game (when shifting to a low probability high base state), the upper decoration unit 200 may be kept in the intermediate state or may be returned to the initial state. It is preferable that the rotating body 401 be returned to the state in which the front side decoration portion 410 faces the front at least by the end of the jackpot game. This is because the rotating body 401 can be operated as the next jackpot notification.

  Also, when the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed to the final state in the jackpot variation, the upper decoration unit 200 may be maintained in the final state during the subsequent jackpot game or high probability state (or high base state). . If configured in this way, if it is in an advantageous state for the player, the gaming machine frame 2 (front door 23) will be maintained in the extended state, and it will be easy to maintain the player's uplifting feeling and It becomes easy to attract the attention of the shopkeeper.

7. Example of Effects Using Upper Decoration Unit 200 Next, variations of effects using the upper decoration unit 200 in the present embodiment and the jackpot expectation of each effect will be described. FIG. 54 is a table summarizing effects using the upper decoration unit 200 in the present embodiment. The effect using the upper decoration unit 200 is (A) Effects using the left movable body 510 and the right movable body 560 of the first movable decorative body 330, (B) using the rotating body 401 of the first movable decorative body 330 The effect is divided into (C) an effect using the light emitting display portion 312 of the fixed decorative body 310, and (D) an effect using the decorative light emitting portion 265 and the partition light emitting portion 267 of the second movable decorative body 250.

(A) Effects using the left movable body 510 and the right movable body 560 In the effects using the left movable body 510 and the right movable body 560, there is an effect of performing "a turning operation" and an effect of performing an opening operation. . These effects may be performed any time when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the initial state, in the intermediate state, or in the final state. When the upper decoration unit 200 is in the initial state (that is, when the presentation means to be recognized by the player is only the first movable decoration 330), an effect of causing the left movable body 510 and the right movable body 560 to rotate is The notice A1 is called, and the effect of causing the release operation is called notice A2. The swinging action of the left movable body 510 and the right moveable body 560 is an operation of swinging a plurality of times within a predetermined rotation angle range, and the state after the swinging operation (open or closed state) is the state before the swinging operation ( Open or closed). The opening operation of the left movable body 510 and the right movable body 560 is an operation of changing from the closed state to the open state.

  When the upper decoration unit 200 is in the intermediate state (that is, when the rendering means to be recognized by the player is the first movable decoration 330 and the fixed decoration 310), the left movable body 510 and the right movable body 560 are turned. The effect of causing the opening action is referred to as a notice A3, and the effect of causing the opening operation is referred to as a notice A4.

  When the upper decoration unit 200 is in the final state (that is, when the rendering means to be recognized by the player is the first movable decoration 330, the second movable decoration 250, and the fixed decoration 310), the left movable body 510 The effect of causing the right movable body 560 to move is referred to as a notice A5, and the effect of causing an opening operation is referred to as a notice A6.

(B) Effects using the rotating body 401 The effects using the rotating body 401 include an effect of performing a "rolling operation" and an effect of performing a "reversing operation + a texture operation". Note that the "inversion operation" and the "working operation" are collectively referred to as "determination operation". The effect of performing the “rolling operation” is performed when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the initial state or in the intermediate state. An effect of causing the rotating body 401 to make the turning operation when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the initial state is referred to as a notice B1. Further, an effect of causing the rotating body 401 to perform a turning operation when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the intermediate state is referred to as a notice B2. The effect of causing the rotating body 401 to perform the “determination operation (reversing operation + kime operation)” is performed when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the final state. This effect is called a confirmation notification.

(C) Effects using the light emitting display unit 312 Effects using the light emitting display unit 312 include effects of displaying the characters “CHANCE” and effects of displaying the characters “HYPER CHANCE”. The former is called notice C1 and the latter is called notice C2. The notice C1 and the notice C2 are executed at the timing when the upper decoration unit 200 is transformed from the initial state to the intermediate state, and is continued even when it is subsequently transformed to the final state. This notice is executed such that the notice C2 has a higher jackpot expectation than the notice C1.

(D) Effects using the decorative light emitting unit 265 and the divided light emitting unit 267 In the effects using the decorative light emitting unit 265 and the divided light emitting unit 267, an effect that lights both light emitting units in blue and an effect that blinks in red are is there. The former is called a notice D1, and the latter is called a notice D2. The notices D1 and D2 are executed at the timing when the upper decoration unit 200 is transformed from the intermediate state to the final state. This notice is executed such that the notice D2 has a higher jackpot expectation than the notice D1.

  Next, an example of execution of effects using the upper decoration unit 200 in this embodiment will be described. A part of the effect pattern that can be executed by the pachinko gaming machine PY1 of this embodiment is illustrated in FIG. As shown in FIG. 55, effect pattern 1 (effect pattern 1-1 or effect pattern 1-2) is executed in the order of notice A1 ⇒ notice A2 予 告 notice B1 予 告 notice C1 予 告 notice D1 予 告 notice A5, and notice A5. Subsequently, it is a pattern for performing a determination notification (at the time of winning) or an origin return (at the time of losing).

  Effect pattern 2 (effect pattern 2-1 or effect pattern 2-2) is executed in the order of notice C2 ⇒ notice A3 予 告 notice A4 予 告 notice B2 予 告 notice D2 続 い notice A5, and notice A5 is followed by confirmation notification or return to the origin Is a pattern to do The effect pattern 3 (effect pattern 3-1 or effect pattern 3-2) is executed in the order of notice A1 予 告 notice C2 予 告 notice A3 予 告 notice D2 予 告 notice A6 予 告 notice A5, and notice A5 is followed by confirmation notification or return to the origin Is a pattern to do The effect pattern 4 (effect pattern 4-1 or effect pattern 4-2) is a pattern which is executed in the order of notice C1 予 告 notice D1 予 告 notice A6 5 notice A5, and performs notification of confirmation or return to the origin following notice A5. Each effect pattern is executed along with the change effect. In addition, the jackpot expecting degree (reliability) of these effect patterns is higher in the order of effect pattern 4, effect pattern 1, effect pattern 2, and effect pattern 3. If the result of the jackpot lottery is a loss, the rendering using the upper decoration unit 200 may be ended (that is, return to the origin) in the middle of each rendering pattern (that is, before the notice A5). Below, effect patterns 1 to 4 will be specifically described based on FIG. 56 to FIG.

(A) Effect pattern 1 (effect pattern 1-1 or effect pattern 1-2)
In the effect pattern 1, when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the initial state, first, the left movable body 510 and the right movable body 560 swing (notice A1 of FIG. 56A, turning operation), and then open. (Notice A2 in FIG. 56 (B), release operation). Then, the rotating body 401 swings (notice B1 of FIG. 56 (C), turning operation).

  Next, as shown in FIG. 57 (A), the first movable decorative body 330 is displaced from the initial position to the intermediate position, that is, the upper decorative unit 200 is deformed from the initial state to the intermediate state. At this time, the light emitting display unit 312 displays the characters "CHANCE" (notice C1). Then, as shown in FIG. 57 (B), the first movable decorative body 330 is displaced from the intermediate position to the final position, that is, the upper decorative unit 200 is deformed from the intermediate state to the final state. At this time, the decorative light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267 emit blue light (notice D1). The light emitting display unit 312 continues the display of the characters “CHANCE”.

  Then, when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the final state, the left movable body 510 and the right movable body 560 swing (a notice A5 of FIG. 58A, a turning operation). If the result of the jackpot lottery is a jackpot, following the notice A5, the rotary body 401 makes one and a half rotation, and the back side decoration portion 430 is directed to the player side (FIG. 58 (B), reverse operation) Turns clockwise by 90 degrees and the decorative blade 450 is exposed (FIG. 58C, texture operation). In addition, when the result of the big hit lottery is a loss, the upper decoration unit 200 returns to the initial state without the rotating body 401 performing the reverse operation or the texture operation after the notice A5 (the first movable decorative body 330 is Back to the initial position). In addition, when causing the rotating body 401 to perform the reverse operation and the texture operation, it is preferable to cause various frame lamps to emit light in a rainbow color.

(B) Effect pattern 2 (effect pattern 2-1 or effect pattern 2-2)
As shown in FIG. 59A, in the effect pattern 2, first, the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed from the initial state to the intermediate state. At this time, the light emitting display unit 312 displays the characters "HYPER CHANCE" (notice C2). Then, the left side movable body 510 and the right side movable body 560 swing (notice A3 in FIG. 59B, turning operation), and subsequently become open (notice A4 in FIG. 59C, opening operation).

  Then, when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the intermediate state, the rotating body 401 swings (notice B2 of FIG. 60A, turning operation). Next, as shown in FIG. 60B, the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed from the intermediate state to the final state.

<Second form>
A pachinko gaming machine according to a second embodiment will be described based on FIGS. The pachinko gaming machine of the second embodiment differs from the pachinko gaming machine PY1 of the above embodiment in the following points. That is, in the pachinko gaming machine of the second embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 64 and 65, the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed based on the operation of the input unit 40k (the first movable decoration 330 and the second movable decoration 250 moves).

  FIG. 64 shows that the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed from the initial state to the intermediate state based on the pressing operation of the input unit 40k, and the light emitting display unit 312 displays "CHANCE" or "HYPER CHANCE". FIG. 65 shows that the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed from the intermediate state to the final state based on the pressing operation of the input unit 40k, and the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267 turn on in blue or blink in red. There is. The effect shown in FIG. 64 is referred to as a first button effect, and the effect shown in FIG. 65 is referred to as a second button effect.

  In the second mode, the first button effect is executed at a timing before the effect design EZ is in the reach state in the change effect (see FIG. 64A). Further, the second button effect is executed at a timing after the effect pattern EZ has reached the reach state in the change effect (specifically, the timing when the normal reach develops to the SP reach) (see FIG. 65A).

  Specifically, in the first effect, the operation instruction image G1 for prompting the player to operate the input unit 40k is superimposed on the near side of the display screen 50a when the three effect symbols EZ are variably displayed in the change effect. Is displayed (see FIG. 64A). The operation instruction image G1 includes an input unit image indicating the input unit 40k and a meter image indicating the operation valid period.

  If the input unit 40k is operated during the operation effective period in the first button effect, the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed from the initial state to the intermediate state, and "CHANCE" or "HYPER CHANCE" is displayed on the light emission display unit 312.

As in the case of the pachinko gaming machine PY1 of the first embodiment, in the second embodiment as well, it is assumed that the indication of "HYPER CHANCE" is a notice effect having a high jackpot expectation degree of expectation higher than that of "CHANCE". Along with the deformation of the upper decoration unit 200 and the notice effect by the light emitting display unit 312, in the fluctuation effect, the effect design EZ is in the reach state (a state of normal reach) (see FIG. 64 (B) (C)). Even when the input unit 40k is not operated during the operation valid period in the first button effect, when the operation valid period has elapsed, the deformation of the upper decoration unit 200 and the advance notice effect by the light emitting display portion 312 are performed. It will be.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 65, the second button effect is executed at the timing when the normal reach develops to the SP reach. In the present embodiment, at the time of development from the normal reach to the SP reach, a branch effect of branching whether or not the leading character is transformed is executed. If the main character is transformed, it will develop into a SP reach with a higher expectation of jackpot win than if it is not done. In the second button effect, the operation instruction image G1 is displayed superimposed on the image G2 of the leading character in the branch effect (see FIG. 65A).

  Then, if the input unit 40k is operated during the operation effective period in the second button effect, the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed from the intermediate state to the final state, and the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267 are lit in blue ( It blinks in red (refer FIG. 65 (C)) (refer FIG. 65 (B)). As with the pachinko gaming machine PY1 of the first embodiment, also in the second embodiment, in the light emission effect of the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267, the red light blinks more than the blue light; It shall be. In this embodiment, the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267 are lit in blue when the main character does not transform in the branch effect, and the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the section light emitting unit 267 are red when the main character transforms in the branch effect. Make it blink. That is, the advance notice effect of lighting the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267 in blue is performed together with the display of the image G3 indicating that the main character has not been transformed (see FIG. 65B). The notice effect of causing the divided light emitting unit 267 to blink in red is performed together with the display of the image G4 indicating that the main character has been transformed (see FIG. 65C). Even when the input unit 40k is not operated during the operation effective period in the second button effect, when the operation effective period elapses, the deformation of the upper decoration unit 200 and the decoration light emission unit 265 and the partition light emission unit 267 A preview effect is performed.

  Next, processing of the effect control board 120 for performing the first button effect and the second button effect as described above will be described based on FIG. 66 and FIG. In the second mode, in place of the sub timer interrupt process (FIG. 52) shown in the first mode, a sub timer interrupt process shown in FIG. 66 is performed. In the sub timer interrupt process shown in FIG. 66, the switch process (S2001) and the timer update process (S2002) are performed following the reception command analysis process (S1001), and the process proceeds to the command transmission process (S1002). This process is different from the same process (FIG. 52) in one embodiment.

  In the switch process (S2001), as shown in FIG. 67, the effect control board 120 first determines whether it is the start timing of the button effect (the first button effect or the second button effect) (S2101). Note that whether or not to perform the button effect is determined in the fluctuation effect pattern selection process (S1102, FIG. 53) in the received command analysis process (S1001).

  If it is not the start timing of the button effect (NO in S2101), the process proceeds to step S2104, but if it is the start timing of the button effect (YES in S2101), the operation valid period of the input unit 40k is set (the operation valid period is measured) An operation instruction start command for displaying the operation instruction image G1 on the image display device 50 is set (S2103), and the process proceeds to step S2104. The timer for measuring the operation valid period is updated in the timer update process (S2002, FIG. 66). Also, the operation instruction start command is transmitted to the image control board 140 in the command transmission process (S1002). The image control board 140 that has received the operation instruction start command causes the image display device 50 to display the operation instruction image G1 (see FIGS. 64A and 65A).

  In step S2104, it is determined whether it is during the operation effective period. If it is during the operation effective period (YES in S2104), it is then determined whether or not the input unit 40k has been operated (S2105). If the input unit 40k is operated (YES in S2105), and if it is the operation effective period of the first button effect, movable body drive data for changing the upper decoration unit 200 from the initial state to the intermediate state is set Then (S2106), lamp drive data for causing the light emitting display portion 312 to display "CHANCE" or "HYPER CHANCE" is set (S2107). If it is the operation effective period of the second button effect, movable body drive data for changing the upper decoration unit 200 from the intermediate state to the final state is set (S2106), and the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267 are The lamp drive data to be lit in blue or blink in red is set (S2107). Then, an operation instruction end command for ending the display of the operation instruction image G1 is set in the image display device 50 (S2108), and the operation valid period is cleared (the timer for measuring the operation valid period is cleared) ( S2109), the process proceeds to step S2110. If it is determined in step S2104 that the operation is not in effect or if it is determined in step S2105 that there is no operation on the input unit 40k, the process proceeds to step S2110.

  The upper decoration unit 200 is deformed by executing the movable body processing (S1006, FIG. 66) based on the movable body drive data set in step S2106, and the lamp processing (S1005) based on the lamp drive data set in step S2107. 66) is executed, the light emitting display portion 312, the decoration light emitting portion 265, and the partition light emitting portion 267 emit light (see FIGS. 64B and 64C and FIGS. 65B and 65C). In addition, the image display device 50 ends the display of the operation instruction image G1 by transmitting the operation instruction end command set in step S2108 in the command transmission process (S1002, FIG. 66) (FIG. 64 (B) (C ), FIG. 65 (B) (C)).

  In step S2110, it is determined whether the operation effective period in the button effect (the first button effect or the second button effect) has ended (S2110). If the operation valid period has not ended (NO in S2110), this processing ends, but if the operation valid period has ended (YES in S2110), it should be set when the input unit 40k is operated. The movable body drive data and the lamp drive data are set (S2111, S2112). Then, an operation instruction end command is set (S2113), and this processing ends. As described above, in the present embodiment, even if the input unit 40k is not operated during the operation effective period, the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed or the light emitting display unit 312, the decoration light emitting unit 265, and the division light emission The part 267 emits light.

  According to the pachinko gaming machine of the second embodiment described above, in addition to the effects similar to the first embodiment, the following effects can be obtained. That is, according to the pachinko gaming machine of the second embodiment, when the player operates the input unit 40k, the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed from the initial state to the intermediate state (the first movable decoration 330 and the second movable The decorative body 250 moves relative to the fixed decorative body 310), and the light emitting display portion 312 appears, and “CHANCE” or “HYPER CHANCE” is displayed on the light emitting display portion 312 (see FIG. 64). Therefore, it is possible to execute the operation of the upper decorative unit 200 (the appearance of the light emitting display portion 312) and the novel effect by the display of the light emitting display portion 312, and the effect of the effect can be improved. That is, the appearance of the light emitting display unit 312 hidden when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the initial state gives surprise to the player, and the notice effect is performed by the light emitting display unit 312, so that the game interest can be improved. It is.

  Further, according to the pachinko gaming machine of the second embodiment, when the player operates the input unit 40k, the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed from the intermediate state to the final state (the first movable decoration 330 is fixed to the fixed decoration 310). When the decorative light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267 appear while moving relative to the second movable decorative body 250, the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267 turn on in blue or blink in red (see FIG. 65). Therefore, it is possible to execute the operation of the upper decoration unit 200 (the appearance of the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267) and the novel effects by the light emission of the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267, and the effect can be improved. . That is, the appearance of the decorative light emitting unit 265 and the partitioned light emitting unit 267 hidden when the upper decorative unit 200 is in the intermediate state gives surprise to the player, and the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the partitioned light emitting unit 267 give notice effect by the decorative light emitting unit 265 and the partitioned light emitting unit 267. Can improve the fun of the game.

  In particular, according to the pachinko gaming machine of the second embodiment, depending on whether the light emitting display unit 312 displays “CHANCE” or “HYPER CHANCE”, the jackpot expected degree (that is, controlled to the jackpot gaming state) Expectations are different. Further, depending on whether the decorative light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267 are lit in blue or blinks in red, the jackpot winning expectation is different. Therefore, attention can be focused on the display content of the light emitting display unit 312 and the light emission mode of the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267, and the game interest can be improved.

  Further, according to the pachinko gaming machine of the second embodiment, when the operation instruction image G1 is displayed on the display screen 50a, it is determined that the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed (the first movable decoration 330 is moved). The display of the operation instruction image G1 functions as a display that suggests the deformation of the upper decorative unit 200 (a display that indicates the movement of the first movable decorative body 330) (see FIGS. 64A and 65A). . Therefore, by suggesting the deformation of the upper decoration unit 200 by the display of the operation instruction image G1, it is possible to make the player expect the jackpot, and it is possible to improve the fun of the game.

  Further, according to the pachinko gaming machine of the second embodiment, since the first movable decorative body 330, the second movable decorative body 250, and the fixed decorative body 310 are provided on the front door 23, the effect of the front door 23 being deformed is novel. It is possible to perform a variety of effects and improve the fun of the game.

  In the second embodiment, although the operation unit used for the first button effect and the second button effect is the input unit 40k capable of the pressing operation, the operation unit may not be the one capable of the pressing operation. For example, the operation unit may be another type of operation such as a pushing operation, a pulling operation, a rotating operation, a swing operation, and a tilting operation.

  In the second embodiment, both the deformation of the upper decoration unit 200 and the display by the light emitting display unit 312 are performed based on the operation of the input unit 40k. On the other hand, only the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed based on the operation of the input unit 40k, and then a predetermined display condition (for example, a predetermined time elapses from the completion of the deformation of the upper decoration unit 200) is satisfied. The light emitting display unit 312 may perform display based on the above. In this case, although the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed, there may be an effect pattern in which the display by the light emitting display unit 312 is not performed. In addition, regardless of the operation of the input unit 40k, the upper decoration unit 200 is first deformed, and the operation instruction image G1 is displayed on the display screen 50a when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the intermediate state, The display by the light emitting display unit 312 may be performed based on the operation of the input unit 40k. According to such a configuration, it is possible to provide fun by operating the light emitting display portion 312 by the player's own operation while giving surprise by the appearance of the light emitting display portion 312, and to improve the game interest.

  In the second embodiment, the modification of the upper decoration unit 200 and the light emission of the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267 are performed based on the operation of the input unit 40k. On the other hand, only the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed based on the operation of the input unit 40k, and then a predetermined light emission condition (for example, a predetermined time elapses from the completion of the deformation of the upper decoration unit 200) is satisfied The decorative light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267 may be configured to emit light based on the above. In this case, although the upper decoration unit 200 is modified, there may be an effect pattern in which the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267 do not emit light. In addition, regardless of the operation of the input unit 40k, the upper decoration unit 200 is first deformed, and when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the final state, the operation instruction image G1 is displayed on the display screen 50a, and the operation is valid. The decorative light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267 may be configured to emit light based on the operation of the input unit 40k. According to such a configuration, it is possible to provide enjoyment to operate the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the division light emitting unit 267 by the player's own operation while giving surprise by the appearance of the decoration light emitting unit 265 and the division light emitting unit 267. It is possible to improve the interest.

  In the second embodiment, the button effect (the first button effect or the second button effect) is performed as the effect during the change effect, but the execution timing of the button effect may be another timing such as a big hit effect. When the button effect is performed during the jackpot effect, it is possible to perform as an effect indicating the degree of expectation as to whether the state is controlled to the high probability state after the execution of the jackpot game. Alternatively, it can be performed as an effect that indicates the degree of expectation for a running jackpot game being a jackpot with a large number of rounds (for example, a jackpot of 16R when there is a jackpot of 8R and 16R).

Other Modifications
In the above embodiment, a decorative portion of a design connected to these decorative portions in a gap portion formed when the upper right decorative portion 575 (upper left decorative portion 525) and the right middle decorative portion 221 (left middle decorative portion 211) are separated vertically (And a frame lamp) may be provided. That is, when the upper right decoration portion 575 (upper left decoration portion 525) and the right center decoration portion 221 (left center decoration portion 211) are separated vertically, a decoration portion having a design connected to these decoration portions may appear. According to this configuration, the continuity of the design of the front door is maintained even when the upper decoration unit is deformed, so that the impression that the front door extends upward can be given more strongly.

  In the above embodiment, the upper decoration unit 200 is configured to be able to extend upward from the initial state to the intermediate state and from the intermediate state to the final state by two steps, but the number of movement in the predetermined direction is three. It may be more than. In the case of only one step, the second movable decorative body 250 may not be provided.

  Moreover, although it was set as the structure which the front door 23 extends upwards in the said form, the direction which extends leftward, rightward, front etc. may be another direction. In the case of the configuration extending leftward or rightward, the length in the vertical direction of the movable portion moving leftward or rightward may be approximately the same as the length in the vertical direction of the front door. Further, in the case of the configuration extending forward, the length in the vertical direction of the movable portion moving forward may be about the same as the length in the vertical direction of the front door. Further, in the above embodiment, the first movable decorative body 330 is configured to move obliquely upward and forward (FIG. 10), but may be moved upward.

  In the above embodiment, the width W1 (FIG. 8) in the left-right direction of the first movable decorative body 330 is longer than the width W3 of the window but shorter than the width W2 of the front door 23. The width in the lateral direction of the body may be exactly the same as the width in the lateral direction of the front door. According to this structure, the front door extends upward with the same sense of width as the initial state, and it can be expected to intensify the impression that the front door 23 extends upward as compared with the above embodiment. However, if the first movable decorative body 330 has a width as large as that described above, it is possible to sufficiently give the player the impression that the front door 23 extends upward with the same sense of width as in the initial state.

  In the above embodiment, the movable decorative portion including a portion of the decorative portion (the first movable decorative body 330 including the upper right decorative portion 575 and the upper left decorative portion 525) is moved forward from the initial position to a part of the front door 23. Although the movable decorative part including a part of the decorative part has a misaligned impression (FIG. 10), the displacement direction of the movable decorative part is the front-back direction, the left-right direction, the up-down direction, the combined direction, the clockwise direction, It may be either clockwise. For example, FIG. 68 shows an example in which the rightward and leftward directions are shifted to the right, and FIG. 69 shows an example in which the upward and downward directions are shifted downward.

  In the example shown in FIG. 68, when the movable decorative body 330X including the upper right decorative portion 575X and the upper left decorative portion 525X shifts to the lower right, the design connection with the left middle decorative portion 211X and the right middle decorative portion 221X of the front door 23X Is broken. Further, in the example shown in FIG. 69, the movable decorative body 330Y including the upper right decorative portion 575Y (upper left decorative portion) is shifted downward to the front so as to design the front door 23Y with the right central decorative portion 221Y (left central decorative portion). Relationship is broken.

  In the above embodiment, the left side decoration (lower left decoration 231, left middle decoration 211 and upper left decoration 525) is provided on the left side of the front door 23, and the right side decoration (lower right decoration) on the right side of the front door 23 Although 233, the right center decoration 221 and the upper right decoration 575) are provided, the decoration may be provided only on either the left or right side.

  In the above embodiment, the second movable decorative body 250 is configured not to change the position when the first movable decorative body 330 moves from the intermediate position to the final position (FIGS. 22B and 22C). The movable decorative body 330 may be somewhat followed.

  In the above embodiment, although the second movable decorative body 250 includes the decorative light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267 and can perform light emission effects, the design is applied to the surface such as the front surface It does not have to have the light emitting function alone. In this case, the side to which the design is applied corresponds to the effect part.

  In the above embodiment, the fixed decorative body 310 has the light emitting display portion 312 (the display portion capable of displaying the characters “CHANCE” and “HYPER CHANCE” as shown in FIG. 30) having the coloring sheet 314. Although the configuration is provided, the display portion of the fixed decorative body may not be able to display a pattern such as characters. For example, it may be a simple light emitting portion (having an LED and capable of emitting light).

  In addition, the display part of the fixed decoration includes a dot matrix display, a 7-segment display, a liquid crystal display, an EL (electroluminescence) display, a part where characters, characters and the like are designed, etc. May be In addition, such a display unit may be provided on the second movable decorative body 250. The display unit is also referred to as a rendering unit.

  In the above embodiment, the upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 operate in the same manner, but only the upper left unit 500 operates, only the upper right unit 550 operates, or operations different from each other are performed. May be For example, the upper left unit 500 is switched from the closed state to the open state, the upper right unit 550 is switched from the open state to the closed state, and then the upper left unit 500 is switched from the open state to the closed state and the upper right unit 550 is closed. There may be an operation pattern (special operation pattern) in which the operation of switching from the state to the open state is repeated. In this case, the special operation pattern indicates a higher jackpot expectation than the open maintenance pattern (an operation pattern in which the upper left unit 500 and the upper right unit 550 are both controlled from the closed state to the open state and maintained). It is good to be

  Moreover, in the said form, although the upper left part unit 500 and the upper right part unit 550 were provided, you may provide only any one.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, in parallel with the variation display of the normal symbol, an effect (general drawing effect) may be performed to notify the result of the normal symbol lottery. In this case, an effect using the upper decoration unit 200 may be performed as a common drawing effect.

  Further, the effect using the upper decoration unit 200 may be performed as a so-called pre-reading effect (for example, a continuous advance notice). With pre-reading effect, the special figure fluctuation (variation display of special symbol based on the starting winning a prize using the starting winning a prize command specified based on the information for judgment (random number such as big hit random number etc) acquired by the starting winning a prize It is an effect which suggests the jackpot expectation degree for the starting winning combination prior to the success or failure judgment immediately before the start of). Specifically, for example, as a continuous notice over four consecutive special image fluctuations, in the fluctuation effect accompanying the first special image fluctuation, the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed from the initial state to the intermediate state, and the second special image In the change effect due to the change, the upper decoration unit 200 is returned from the intermediate state to the initial state, and in the change effect due to the third special change, the upper decoration unit 200 is deformed again from the initial state to the intermediate state. In the change effect due to the special figure change, the intermediate state is deformed to the final state. In this case, the fourth change may be a change that develops into the SP reach. Further, it is preferable to display a specific background on the display screen 50a. That is, it is preferable to give a zone advance notice on the image display device 50 as well. According to this configuration, the upper decoration unit 200 is transformed to the intermediate state again despite being once returned to the initial state, so that it is possible to attract the attention of the player and to enhance the fun of the game.

  Further, the movable range of the upper decoration unit 200 may be set. That is, the upper decoration unit 200 can be set to the normal setting that can move to the final state, the first restriction setting that can move only to the intermediate state, and the second restriction setting that can not move to the intermediate state (does not move up and down in the initial state) You may do so. The movable range may be set only at the initial setting at the time of power on (that is, it can not be set unless it is a hall clerk or the like), or may be made possible by the player by operating the input unit 40k or the like. Limiting the movable range is performed when the upper decoration unit 200 can not be transformed into the final state or the intermediate state, for convenience of the island equipment (for example, a data display etc. displaying the number of big hits and the number of fluctuations) in the game arcade. Particularly effective.

  Moreover, although the upper decoration unit 200 was provided in the front door 23 in the said form, the technical idea contained in the upper decoration unit 200 is applicable also to a board movable body (movable body with which a game board is provided). For example, a movable board having a light emission range expanded with deformation, a movable board having a ball discharge structure, a movable board having a stopper mechanism, and a second movable decoration by the first movable decorative body reaching a final position It is possible to configure a movable board or the like in which the distance between the body and the fixed decoration approaches. In addition, the relationship between the first movable decorative body 330, the second movable decorative body 250, and the fixed decorative body 310, the first movable decorative body 330 further includes rendering means such as the upper left unit 500, the upper right unit 550, and the central upper unit 400. The same configuration as that of the above may be applied to the movable plate. The method of using the movable plate in this case can adopt the same method as the method of using the upper decoration unit 200 described above.

  Moreover, although the structure shown to FIGS. 25-27 was used as a ball | bowl discharge structure in the said form, a ball | bowl discharge structure can be suitably changed according to the movement etc. of a movable object. It may be configured to push the gaming ball when the movable object returns to the initial position and discharge it out of the device, or a configuration without the inclined surface (the first inclined surface 202a or the second inclined surface 202b in the above embodiment) on which the gaming ball rolls. It may be Further, the reason why the gaming ball stays in the device is not limited to the fact that the extending portion 360 as in the above embodiment prevents the falling from the hollow portion 393.

  Moreover, although the stopper mechanism (the control part 391 and the latching part 340) which can control fall of the 1st movable decorative body 330 was provided in the said form, the movable object is out of the design range (outside of the planned movable range) The movement restricted by the restricting portion or the locking portion is not limited to the fall, as long as the movement to the position is restricted. For example, movement in the front-rear direction, left-right direction, up-down direction, rotation, etc. may be restricted. The method of restriction may be a structure other than the structure in which the hooking portion 340 is hooked to the restricting portion 391 as in the above embodiment. For example, the structure may be such that the movement is restricted by the entire movable object hitting another member.

  In the above embodiment, the upper decoration unit 200 having the speaker 600 is provided at the upper part of the front door 23. However, the decoration unit having the speaker and the movable object for effect may be the lower part, the left part, the right part, etc. , May be disposed at positions other than the upper part. Moreover, the speaker may not be united with the movable object for presentation.

  In the above embodiment, when the upper decoration unit 200 is in the initial state (when the first movable decoration 330 is in the initial position), the front side decoration 410, the upper left decoration 525, and the upper right decoration 575 are lit in white. When the ratio (ratio of non-flashy light emission modes) is higher than the ratio of lighting in red (ratio of flashy light emission modes) and the upper decoration unit 200 is in the final state (when the first movable decoration is at the final position) The ratio of lighting the front side decorative portion 410, the upper left decorative portion 525, and the upper right decorative portion 575 in white may be lower than the ratio of lighting in red. According to such a configuration, the specification of the light emission mode of the light emitting unit (the front side decorative unit 410, the upper left decorative unit 525, the upper right decorative unit 575) changes depending on the position of the first movable decorative body 330. It is.

  In the above embodiment, the player may manually displace the first movable decorative body 330 and the second movable decorative body 250. In this case, an effect of instructing the player by sound or display to displace the first movable decorative body 330 or the second movable decorative body 250 may be performed. Further, instead of the first movable decorative body 330, the effect performed using the first movable decorative body 330 is performed using the movable portion (the portion to be operated) of the operation means used for so-called button effect. May be In this case, the movable portion may be located at the first position and at a second position different from the first position as the operation waiting state.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the specific operation pattern of the rotating body 401 may not be a confirmation operation for informing a jackpot confirmation. For example, it may be an operation indicating that the possibility of winning a jackpot is extremely high (operation showing a jackpot expectation degree higher than the turning operation of the rotating body 401) or the like.

  Further, in the above embodiment, the light emitting display portion 312 is configured so as not to be visible when the first movable decorative body 330 is at the intermediate position and to be visible when the first movable decorative body 330 is displaced to the final position. It is also good. Specifically, for example, the light emitting display unit may be provided on the second movable decorative body.

  In the above embodiment, the light emitting display portion 312 is not visible when the first movable decorative body 330 is at the initial position, and is visible when the first movable decorative body 330 is at the intermediate position or the final position. However, if the first movable decorative body 330 is in the initial position, it may be visible when the first movable decorative body 330 is in the initial position, as long as it is less visible than in the intermediate position or the final position. It may be one. For example, when the first movable decorative body 330 is in the initial position, about half of the light emitting display portion 312 is visible to the player, and when the first movable decorative body 330 is in the middle position or the final position The configuration in which the entire display unit 312 can be viewed by the player, that is, the portion of the light emitting display unit 312 visible to the player by moving the first movable decorative body 330 from the initial position to the intermediate position or the final position. The configuration may be increased.

  In the above embodiment, the decorative light emitting unit 265 and the partition light emitting unit 267 are not visible when the first movable decorative body 330 is at the initial position or the intermediate position, and are visible when the first movable decorative body 330 is at the final position. Although it is possible, if the first movable decorative body 330 is in the initial position or in the middle position and is less visible than in the final position, the first movable decorative body 330 is in the initial position or the middle position It may be visible when in position. For example, when the first movable decorative body 330 is at the initial position or the middle position, about half of the decorative light emitting portion 265 and the divided light emitting portion 267 are visible from the player, and the first movable decorative body 330 is at the final position. , The configuration in which all of the decorative light emitting portion 265 and the divided light emitting portion 267 can be seen by the player, that is, the first movable decorative body 330 moves from the initial position or the intermediate position to the final position. The configuration may be such that the portion visible to the player in the light emitting unit 265 and the partitioned light emitting unit 267 is increased.
