A single flow passage member 620 different from the flow passage member 620 constituting the flow passage structure 600 a may be provided at a position away from the flow passage structure 600 a in the board surface 405. According to the flow path structure 600a, it is possible to form a flow path for flowing the gaming ball GB gently to the right.

  FIG. 12 is a front view showing the flow channel structures 600 b and 600 c in the fifth modification. The flow path structure 600b is configured by combining five flow path members 630 longitudinally in series at the same attachment angle. The flow path structure 600 c is configured by combining five flow path members 630 longitudinally in series at the same attachment angle. The flow path structure 600b is provided at a position vertically offset from the flow path structure 600c with a gap capable of causing the gaming ball GB to flow down. A single flow passage member 630 different from the flow passage member 630 constituting the flow passage structures 600 b and 600 c may be provided at a position apart from the flow passage structures 600 b and 600 c in the board surface 405. According to the flow path structures 600b and 600c, it is possible to form a flow path that suppresses the flow velocity of the gaming ball GB by alternately flowing the gaming ball GB.

  According to the embodiment described above, the forming members such as the flow path members 510a, 510b, 520, 610, 620, 630 are used universally, and the flow path having a desired length corresponding to the number of the flow path members is obtained. It can be formed. Further, in the flow channel structure 500, the length of the flow channel can be adjusted according to the number of the flow channel members 520 forming the middle portion of the flow channel formed by the flow channel structure 500. Further, since the flow path members 510a, 510b, 520 in the flow path structure 500 are mutually connected with other adjacent flow path members, all the flow path members constituting the flow path structure 500 are made to the board surface 405. By fixing the flow path members 510 a and 510 b to the board surface 405 without fixing them individually, the whole of the flow path structure 500 can be fixed to the board surface 405.

  In addition, it is possible to form the flow path of the gaming ball by using the single flow path members 610, 620, 630 in a versatile manner. Moreover, various flow paths can be formed according to the combination of the planes in the flow path members 610, 620, 630. Moreover, the flow path members 610, 620, 630 do not have the risk of deformation due to long-term use as in a game nail. Further, in the case of the game nail, the flow path members 610, 620, and 630 can form a flow path having a large number of parts with a relatively small number of parts. Therefore, according to the flow path members 610, 620, 630, it is possible to suppress the number of assembling steps to the board surface 405, the frequency of maintenance and the cost, as compared with the game nail.
