Examples of the “light emitting means” include “side view type (side light emitting type)”, “top view type (top light emitting type)”, “cannonball type”, and the like.

  Further, as the “panel decoration board”, “the board surface on which the light emitting means is mounted is arranged in parallel with the surface of the panel board”, “the board surface on which the light emitting means is mounted is the side surface of the panel board. And the like ". The “panel decoration substrate” may be opaque or transparent. Further, the panel decoration board may be attached to the panel holder via the board cover, or may be directly attached to the panel holder.

  According to the configuration of the means 1, the gaming machine has a transparent flat panel plate in which a game area in which a game is performed is formed on the front surface, a front component member that partitions at least a part of the outer periphery of the game area, and a front configuration A panel holder that is provided on the rear side of the member and holds the outer periphery of the panel plate; a panel decorative substrate that is provided on the panel holder and on which light emitting means capable of entering light is mounted on the side surface of the panel plate; A decorative pattern which is formed on the rear surface of the plate and can always be visually recognized from the front, and which reflects the light incident from the side surface of the panel plate by the light emitting means to the front to emit light on the rear surface of the panel plate. It is intended to provide.

  As a result, a decorative pattern that is always visible from the front is formed on the rear surface of the transparent panel board in which the game area is formed on the front surface when viewed from the front, so that the light emitting means of the panel decorative board does not emit light. In the state, the light from the light-emitting decorative body or light-emitting display means provided in the gaming machine, the light of the lighting in the gaming hall where the gaming machine is installed, or from other gaming machines installed nearby Since the appearance of the decoration pattern will vary depending on the light and the position of the eyes of the player seated in front of the gaming machine, etc., the panel board ( It is possible to show the player the inside of the game area with a distinctly different impression (atmosphere) from the conventional gaming machine with a decorative sheet attached to the gaming panel), and can attract the player's attention strongly , Play It is possible to provide a highly appealing game machine for business, the decoration panel plate entertained the player, the reduction in the player's interest can be suppressed.

  Then, when the light emitting means of the panel decoration substrate is caused to emit light, the light incident from the side surface of the panel board is reflected forward in the decoration pattern, so that the decoration pattern seen through the transparent panel board appears to shine. Since the back side can be decorated with light emission, the decoration pattern can stand out, the appearance in the game area can be improved, the player's attention can be strongly attracted, and the appeal to the player Can be increased. In addition, by decorating the decoration pattern, the appearance of the decoration pattern can be made different from when the decoration pattern is not illuminated. Therefore, the decoration of the panel board that cannot be seen with conventional gaming machines can be emitted. Since it can be shown, the decoration pattern is decorated with light emission, which can make the player think that there is something good like an opportunity, etc., and raise the expectation for the game It is possible to suppress a decrease in interest.

  In addition, a panel holder for holding the outer periphery of the panel board in which a game area is formed on the front surface is provided, and a panel decorative board on which light emitting means for making light incident on the side surface of the panel board is mounted on the panel holder is provided. Therefore, since the panel decoration board is positioned on the outside of the panel board in the front view, the panel decoration board is not seen in the game area in the front view, and the appearance in the game area is improved. Can be better.

  Since the panel holder provided with this panel decorative board is provided on the rear side of the front structural member, the panel decorative board provided on the panel holder is made difficult or invisible by the front structural member. Therefore, it is possible to make it difficult for the player to notice the presence of the panel decoration substrate (light emitting means). This makes it possible for the player to think that the decorative pattern on the panel board does not emit light at the beginning of the game, so if the decorative pattern is illuminated with light emitting means, the player will be greatly surprised. In addition, the light emitting decoration of the decoration pattern can be wondered, and the player can be entertained and the decrease in interest can be suppressed.

  Further, since the panel decoration plate (light emitting means) is attached to the panel holder, when the light emitting means is caused to emit light in order to decorate the decorative pattern, a part of the light from the light emitting means is irradiated forward or the light emitting means. A part of the light incident on the side surface of the panel plate is reflected forward by the side surface of the panel plate, so that the front component member is illuminated from the rear side. And when the front component member is a light-impermeable member, the light emitted forward by the light emission of the light emitting means can be blocked by the front component member, so that the light reaches the eyes of the player It is possible to prevent the player from feeling dazzled and causing discomfort, and to suppress a decrease in the interest of the player. On the other hand, when the front component member is a transparent or translucent member, the front component member is light-decorated by the light emitted forward by the light emission of the light emitting means, which has not been seen in conventional gaming machines. In addition, the light emission decoration (light emission effect) of the front component member can give a strong impact to the player, and can attract the player's interest and suppress a decrease in interest.

  The panel board is provided with a decoration pattern formation area where a decoration pattern is formed and a decoration pattern non-formation area where the decoration pattern is not formed, and then the panel decoration board is attached to the decoration pattern formation area in the panel holder. You may make it attach to the site | part near. Thereby, since the decoration pattern is formed on a part of the rear surface of the panel board (decoration pattern forming region), compared with the case where the decoration pattern is formed on the entire rear surface of the panel board, It is possible to reduce the time and labor required for forming the decoration pattern, and to suppress an increase in the cost of the gaming machine. Further, in this case, since the panel decoration substrate is attached to a portion of the panel holder close to the decoration pattern formation region, the light emitting means is located near the decoration pattern formed in the decoration pattern formation region of the panel board. Therefore, when the light emitting means emits light, the decoration pattern can be brightly decorated, and the effect when the decoration pattern is decorated with light emission can be further enhanced.

  Further, it is desirable that the light emitting means is of a side view type after the panel decoration substrate is arranged so that the plate surface is parallel to the surface of the panel plate. Thereby, since the light emitting means is a side view type and the plate surface of the panel decoration substrate is parallel to the surface of the panel plate, the dimension in the front-rear direction of the panel decoration substrate can be made as thin as possible. Even if the decorative board is attached, the increase in the thickness of the panel holder can be suppressed, and the size of the panel decorative board in the front-rear direction is reduced, so that the light from the light emitting means is effectively applied to the side surface of the panel board. It is possible to easily dispose the panel decoration substrate at a position where it can be incident on the panel, and it is possible to make the decoration pattern emit light decoration by making light incident on the side surface of the panel plate with a sufficient amount of light.

  In addition, as described above, when the plate surface of the panel decoration substrate is arranged in parallel with the surface of the panel plate, the width of the plate surface of the panel decoration substrate is made larger than the thickness in the front-rear direction of the panel holder. Is possible. And when the width of the panel decoration board is increased, the inclination of the plate surface (optical axis) due to manufacturing error, mounting error, etc. is reduced, so that the light from the light emitting means can be reliably transmitted to the desired part of the side surface of the panel plate. The decorative pattern formed on the panel board can be surely decorated with light emission.

  Further, a plurality of panel decoration substrates may be arranged at different positions in front view. Accordingly, since the plurality of panel decoration substrates are provided at different positions, light can be incident on the panel plate from different directions, so that the decoration pattern widely formed on the rear surface of the panel plate It is possible to easily spread the light to every corner of the display, and the decoration pattern can be illuminated and decorated uniformly.

  Moreover, you may make it attach the panel decoration board | substrate with which the light emission means is mounted to a panel holder via a board | substrate cover. As a result, even if vibration or impact is applied to the gaming machine during transportation, installation in the game hall, maintenance work, etc., it can be made difficult to be transmitted to the panel decoration board (light emitting means). It is possible to suppress damage due to impact and reduce a decrease in durability. Further, in this case, since vibrations and impacts can be made difficult to be transmitted, it is possible to prevent the positional relationship between the panel decoration substrate and the panel plate from being shifted, and the positional relationship shifts the light emission decoration of the decorative pattern. In addition to preventing problems, it is possible to reliably make light incident on a desired portion on the side surface of the panel plate, and to decorate the decoration pattern in a good state.

  In addition, the front component member has a frame shape and defines the outer periphery of a substantially circular gaming area in front view, and the outer shape is formed into a quadrangle. You may make it attach to at least one of the four corners in the front view of the panel holder of the substantially same shape as a structural member. As a result, the frame-shaped front component member has the same substantially circular shape as the game area in the frame, and the outer shape is rectangular, so the width between the inner periphery and the outer periphery of the front component member (panel holder) However, it is widest at the four corners, and the panel decoration board is attached to at least one of the four corners of the panel holder. Therefore, a space for attaching the panel decoration board can be easily secured. It is possible to embody a gaming machine that exhibits the operational effects as described above.

  Further, as described above, when the panel decoration substrate is attached to the four corners of the panel holder, the width between the inner periphery and the outer periphery of the frame-like panel holder is wider than the other parts in the frame-like panel holder. Therefore, it is possible to increase the width of the panel decoration substrate when viewed from the front. And by increasing the width of the panel decoration board, the inclination of the panel decoration board due to manufacturing errors, mounting errors, etc. is reduced, so the deviation of the optical axis of the light emitting means mounted on the panel decoration board is reduced, and the light emission The light from the means can be reliably radiated to a desired portion on the side surface of the panel plate, and the decoration pattern formed on the panel plate can be surely illuminated and decorated.

  Furthermore, the front component member may be formed so as to have translucency, and the light emitting means of the panel decorative substrate may be able to irradiate light forward. As a result, when the light emitting means emits light in order to decorate the decorative pattern, the light emitted forward from the light emitted from the light emitting means irradiates the translucent front component member from the rear. Since the front component can be surely decorated with light emission, it can give a strong impact to the player by showing the light emission decoration (light emission effect) of the front component, which was not seen in conventional gaming machines, It can attract the player's interest and suppress the decrease in interest.

  In addition, when the front component member has translucency, the panel board with the game area formed on the front surface is transparent compared to the case where the front component member is opaque and black. It is possible to make the front component member have a similar atmosphere with respect to the panel plate, making it difficult for the player to recognize the boundary (outer periphery of the game area) between the panel plate and the front component member in a front view. The game area can be felt widely by the player, and the player can recognize that it is different from other gaming machines at first glance due to the widely felt game area. You can increase your power.

  In addition, the front component member has a function display means mounting portion to which a function display means capable of displaying the status of the game being performed in the game area is attached, and then the panel decoration board in the panel holder, You may make it attach to the site | part used as the back of a function display means attachment part. Thereby, since the panel decoration board is attached to the rear of the function display means attaching portion of the front component member, when the light emitting means emits light in order to decorate the decorative pattern, a part of the light from the light emitting means is forward. A function that is attached to the function display means mounting portion of the front component member by reflecting a part of the light incident on the side face of the panel board from the light emitting means to the front side of the panel board. The display means will be illuminated from the rear, and the function display means or the periphery of the function display means can be decorated with light emission, and by the light emission decoration (light emission effect) of the function display means, which has not been seen in conventional game machines, A strong impact can be given to the player, and the player can be made to think that there is something good by the luminous decoration of the function display means. That let me raise expectations thereby suppress the reduction of interest.

  Further, the front decorative member may be provided with a stamp sticking portion to which the stamp is attached, and the panel decoration board may be attached to the rear portion of the stamp sticking portion in the panel holder. Thereby, since the panel decoration board is attached to the rear of the certificate sticking part of the front component member, when the light emitting means emits light to decorate the decorative pattern, a part of the light from the light emitting means is irradiated forward. Or a part of the light incident on the side of the panel plate from the light emitting means is reflected forward by the side of the panel plate, so that the stamp attached to the stamp sticking portion of the front component member is It will be illuminated, and you can decorate the certificate paper with a light emitting decoration. The light emission decoration (light emission effect) of the certificate paper, which was not seen in previous game machines, can give a strong impact to the player and the light emission of the certificate paper The decoration can make the player think that there is something good, and can increase the sense of expectation for the game and suppress the decrease in interest.

  In addition, the panel holder is recessed from the front to the rear, and has a board mounting recess for mounting the panel decorative board, and a connection recess recessed from the rear to the rear behind the board mounting recess. Then, the panel decoration board has a connection connector that penetrates the rear wall of the board mounting recess in the panel holder and protrudes into the connection recess, and the rear end extends to substantially the same position as the rear surface of the panel holder. You may do it. Accordingly, since the board mounting recess is provided on the front surface of the panel holder, the panel decoration board does not protrude forward from the front surface of the panel holder by mounting the panel decoration board in the board mounting recess. The panel decorative substrate can be attached without increasing the thickness of the panel holder in the front-rear direction. Further, in this case, the rear surface of the panel holder is provided with a connection concave portion from which the connection connector of the panel decorative board protrudes. When the panel decorative board is attached to the board mounting concave portion, the rear end of the connection connector is substantially the same as the rear surface of the panel holder. Since it becomes the same position, even if a panel decoration board | substrate is attached to a panel holder, the decoration pattern currently formed in the rear surface of a panel board can be light-decorated, suppressing the increase in the thickness of the front-back direction of a panel holder. Further, in this case, since the connection recess is provided on the rear surface of the panel holder, the other connector can be connected to or disconnected from the connection connector of the panel decorative board by inserting a finger into the connection recess. And workability can be improved. In addition, as described above, the presence of the connection recess allows the connector to be easily inserted and removed without causing the connector to protrude rearward from the rear surface of the panel holder. An increase in thickness in the front-rear direction can be suppressed, and the same effect as described above can be achieved.

Means 2: In the constitution of means 1,
"The panel board
A decorative pattern forming region in which the decorative pattern is formed;
A decorative pattern non-formation region where the decorative pattern is not formed,
The panel decoration substrate is:
The panel holder is attached to a portion close to the decorative pattern formation region ”.

  Here, as the “decoration pattern forming area”, “an area having a predetermined width or more”, “an area that does not interfere with an effect image or a decoration body displayed on the effect display means behind”, “ "A region where it is difficult to see the movable movable body behind".

  According to the configuration of the means 2, the panel board is provided with a decoration pattern forming region where the decoration pattern is formed and a decoration pattern non-forming region where the decoration pattern is not formed. It is made to attach to the site | part close | similar to the decoration pattern formation area.

  Thereby, since the decoration pattern is formed on a part of the rear surface of the panel board (decoration pattern forming region), compared with the case where the decoration pattern is formed on the entire rear surface of the panel board, It is possible to reduce the time and labor required for forming the decoration pattern, and to suppress an increase in the cost of the gaming machine.

  Further, since the panel decoration substrate is attached to a portion of the panel holder close to the decoration pattern formation region, the light emitting means is positioned near the decoration pattern formed in the decoration pattern formation region of the panel board. Therefore, when the light emitting means is made to emit light, the decoration pattern can be brightly decorated, and the effect when the decoration pattern is decorated with light emission can be further enhanced.

  In addition, when the decorative pattern forming area is an area having a predetermined width or more in the panel board, the decorative pattern is formed in a wide area, so that the decorative pattern becomes large and the decorative pattern can be easily seen. It is possible to entertain the decoration of the decoration pattern to the player. Further, in this case, since the decoration pattern is not formed in the narrow area (decoration pattern non-formation area), the appearance in the game area is deteriorated even if the decoration pattern is not formed in the area. However, it is possible to avoid unnecessary formation of a decoration pattern in a narrow and difficult-to-view region, and it is possible to reduce time and effort required to form the decoration pattern.

  Furthermore, when the decoration pattern formation area is an area that does not interfere with the rear effect image or decoration body, the rear effect image or decoration body is good from the front through the decoration pattern non-formation area of the transparent panel board. Since it can be shown to the player in a state, it is possible to surely enjoy the effect image, decoration of the decorative body, etc. for the player, and it is possible to suppress a decrease in the interest of the player.

  In addition, when the decoration pattern forming area is an area where it is desired to make the movable movable body behind it difficult to see, the movable decorative body arranged behind the decorative pattern can be made difficult to see. In the state of being located at the rear, it is possible to make it difficult for the player to notice the presence of the movable decorative body, and the movable decorative body is moved to the outside (behind the decorative pattern non-formation area) behind the decorative pattern. In such a state, the player can visually recognize the movable decorative body in a good state, and can show the player a movable effect as if the movable decorative body suddenly appeared, to entertain and entertain the player. The decrease can be suppressed.

  In addition, you may make it affix the decoration sheet | seat in which the predetermined decoration is formed in the decoration pattern non-formation area | region in the rear surface of a panel board. Or you may make it affix the decoration sheet | seat in which the predetermined | prescribed decoration is formed in a part or all of a decoration pattern formation area. Thereby, the appearance in the game area can be improved by the decoration pattern and the decoration of the decoration sheet.

Means 3: In the constitution of means 1 or means 2,
"The panel decoration board is
The plate surface is arranged in parallel with the surface of the panel plate, and the light emitting means is of a side view type.

  By the way, when the plate surface of the panel decorative substrate on which the light emitting means is mounted is arranged so as to be parallel to the side surface of the panel plate, in order to suppress an increase in the thickness in the front-rear direction, The width of the panel holder must be smaller than the thickness of the panel holder in the front-rear direction, and the width of the panel decoration board becomes smaller, resulting in dimensional tolerances when manufacturing the panel decoration board and panel holder, and mounting errors during installation. If the plate surface is slightly inclined due to, etc., the optical axis of the light emitting means is likely to be greatly displaced, and there is a possibility that light cannot be incident on the side surface of the panel plate with a sufficient amount of light.

  According to the configuration of the means 3, the light emitting means is of the side view type after the panel decoration substrate is arranged in parallel with the surface of the panel board.

  Thereby, since the light emitting means is a side view type and the plate surface of the panel decoration substrate is parallel to the surface of the panel plate, the dimension in the front-rear direction of the panel decoration substrate can be made as thin as possible. Even if the decorative board is attached, the increase in the thickness of the panel holder can be suppressed, and the size of the panel decorative board in the front-rear direction is reduced, so that the light from the light emitting means is effectively applied to the side surface of the panel board. It is possible to easily dispose the panel decoration substrate at a position where it can be incident on the panel, and it is possible to make the decoration pattern emit light decoration by making light incident on the side surface of the panel plate with a sufficient amount of light.

  In addition, since the plate surface of the panel decoration substrate is arranged in parallel with the surface of the panel plate, the width of the plate surface of the panel decoration substrate can be made larger than the thickness in the front-rear direction of the panel holder. Become. And when the width of the panel decoration board is increased, the inclination of the plate surface (optical axis) due to manufacturing error, mounting error, etc. is reduced, so that the light from the light emitting means can be reliably transmitted to the desired part of the side surface of the panel plate. The decorative pattern formed on the panel board can be surely decorated with light emission.

Means 4: In any one configuration from means 1 to means 3,
"The panel decoration board is
It is characterized in that "a plurality of them are arranged at different positions in front view".

  According to the configuration of the means 4, a plurality of panel decoration substrates are arranged at different positions in front view.

  Accordingly, since the plurality of panel decoration substrates are provided at different positions, light can be incident on the panel plate from different directions, so that the decoration pattern widely formed on the rear surface of the panel plate It is possible to easily spread the light to every corner of the display, and the decoration pattern can be illuminated and decorated uniformly.

Means 5: In any one configuration from means 1 to means 4,
“It further comprises a translucent substrate cover attached to the panel holder,
The panel decoration substrate is:
By being attached to the substrate cover, it is attached to the panel holder ".

  Here, as the “substrate cover” having translucency, “a transparent member having sliding glass-like irregularities to reduce the rear visibility”, “transparent, good rear “A thing that can be visually recognized”, “A light-transmitting opaque material that does not have rear visibility”, and the like.

  According to the configuration of the means 5, after the gaming machine is further provided with a translucent board cover attached to the panel holder, the panel decoration board can be attached to the panel holder via the board cover. It is what I did.

  As a result, the panel decoration board on which the light-emitting means is mounted is attached to the panel holder via the board cover, so that the game machine vibrates during transportation, installation in the game hall, maintenance work, etc. Even if an impact is applied, it can be made difficult to be transmitted to the panel decorative substrate (light emitting means), and damage due to vibration or impact can be suppressed to reduce a decrease in durability. Further, since it is possible to make it difficult to transmit vibrations and shocks, it is possible to prevent the positional relationship between the panel decoration substrate and the panel plate from being shifted, and the positional relationship shift causes a defect in the light emitting decoration of the decorative pattern. This can be prevented, and light can be reliably incident on a desired portion of the side surface of the panel plate, so that the decoration pattern can be illuminated and decorated in a good state.

  Further, since the substrate cover has translucency, a part of light from the light emitting means can be irradiated to the front (front component) through the substrate cover, and the front front component or the like is illuminated with light. Can be made.

And a decorative pattern for luminescent decoration on the rear surface.

  According to the configuration of the means 11, the gaming machine divides the outer periphery of the substantially circular gaming area in the front view where the game is performed, and the outer shape is formed in a quadrangle, and one of the four corners in the front view is formed. The function display means mounting portion to which the function display means capable of displaying the status of the game being performed in the game area is mounted, and the corner adjacent to the function display means mounting portion among the four corners. A frame-shaped front component member having a certificate sticking part to which a certificate paper is pasted, and a transparent flat plate shape in which the inside of the frame of the front component member is closed from the rear and a game area is formed on the front surface. A panel board having a decorative pattern forming area close to the display means attaching part and the certificate sticking part, and a decorative pattern non-forming area excluding the decorative pattern forming area, and holding the outer periphery of the panel board, With the previous component It is formed in the same shape, is attached to the rear side of the front component member, and is recessed rearward from the front surface formed in the rear part of each of the function display means attaching portion and the certificate sticking portion. A frame-shaped panel holder having a substrate mounting recess and a connect recess recessed from the rear surface to the front behind the substrate mounting recess, and a transparent plate mounted on each substrate mounting recess of the panel holder. A board cover having optical properties and a board surface are mounted on the rear side of the board cover so that the plate surface is parallel to the surface of the panel board, and light can be incident on the side surface of the panel board and also forward. A side-view type light emitting means that can irradiate light is formed in the decorative pattern formation area on the front surface of the panel decoration board and the rear surface of the panel board. It is possible, in which as and a decorative pattern that emits decorative surface after the incident light is reflected forward panel plate from the side surface of the panel board by the light emitting means.

  As a result, a decorative pattern that is always visible from the front is formed on the rear surface of the transparent panel plate in which the inside of the frame-shaped front component member is closed from the rear in front view and the game area is formed on the front surface. Therefore, in the state where the light emitting means of the panel decoration board is not lighted, the light from the light emitting decorative body and the light emitting display means provided in the gaming machine, the lighting in the gaming hall in which the gaming machine is installed, Depending on the light, the light from other game machines installed nearby, and the position of the eyes of the player sitting in front of the game machine, the appearance of the decoration pattern may vary. Because it will be visible, it is possible to show the player in a game area with a distinctly different impression (atmosphere) from the conventional gaming machine with a decorative sheet pasted on the panel board (game panel) by decoration of the decoration pattern Become a player It is possible to attract attention and to make a gaming machine with high appeal to the player, and to make the decoration of the panel board enjoyable to the player, and to suppress a decrease in the interest of the player. .

  Then, when the light emitting means of the panel decoration substrate is caused to emit light, the light incident from the side surface of the panel board is reflected forward in the decoration pattern, so that the decoration pattern seen through the transparent panel board appears to shine. Since the back side can be decorated with light emission, the decoration pattern can stand out, the appearance in the game area can be improved, the player's attention can be strongly attracted, and the appeal to the player Can be increased. In addition, by decorating the decoration pattern, the appearance of the decoration pattern can be made different from when the decoration pattern is not illuminated. Therefore, the decoration of the panel board that cannot be seen with conventional gaming machines can be emitted. Since it can be shown, the decoration pattern is decorated with light emission, which can make the player think that there is something good like an opportunity, etc., and raise the expectation for the game It is possible to suppress a decrease in interest.

  Since the panel holder to which the panel decorative board is attached is attached to the rear side of the front component, the panel decorative board attached to the panel holder is made invisible or invisible by the front constituent member. Therefore, it is possible to make it difficult for the player to notice the presence of the panel decoration substrate (light emitting means). This makes it possible for the player to think that the decorative pattern on the panel board does not emit light at the beginning of the game, so if the decorative pattern is illuminated with light emitting means, the player will be greatly surprised. In addition, the light emitting decoration of the decoration pattern can be wondered, and the player can be entertained and the decrease in interest can be suppressed.

  In addition, since the decoration pattern is formed on a part of the rear surface of the panel board (decoration pattern forming region), the decoration pattern is compared with the case where the decoration pattern is formed on the entire rear surface of the panel board. It is possible to reduce the time and labor required for forming the pattern and to suppress an increase in the cost of the gaming machine.

  In addition, the panel decoration board is disposed at a position behind the function display means mounting portion and the certificate paper pasting portion which are part of the four corners of the front component member when viewed from the front, and the function display means mounting portion and the certificate paper on the panel board Since the portion close to the affixing portion is used as a decoration pattern formation region, the light emitting means is located near the decoration pattern formed in the decoration pattern formation region of the panel board. It is possible to decorate with light emission, and it is possible to further enhance the effect when the decoration pattern is decorated with light emission.

  Furthermore, since the light emitting means is a side view type, and the plate surface of the panel decoration board is parallel to the surface of the panel board, the front and rear dimensions of the panel decoration board can be made as thin as possible. Even if the board is attached, the increase in the thickness of the panel holder can be suppressed, and the size of the panel decoration board in the front-rear direction is reduced, so that the light from the light emitting means is effectively applied to the side surface of the panel board. The panel decoration substrate can be easily arranged at a position where it can be incident, and light can be incident on the side surface of the panel plate with a sufficient amount of light to decorate the decoration pattern.

  Further, since the plate surface of the panel decoration substrate is arranged in parallel with the surface of the panel plate, the width of the plate surface of the panel decoration substrate can be made larger than the thickness of the panel holder in the front-rear direction. . And when the width of the panel decoration board is increased, the inclination of the plate surface (optical axis) due to manufacturing error, mounting error, etc. is reduced, so that the light from the light emitting means can be reliably transmitted to the desired part of the side surface of the panel plate. The decorative pattern formed on the panel board can be surely decorated with light emission.

  Furthermore, since the panel decoration board is attached to the rear of the function display means attaching part and the certificate sticking part at different positions among the four corners of the front structural member in front view, light is emitted from different directions with respect to the panel board. Since it can enter, it can be made easy to spread light to every corner of the decoration pattern currently widely formed in the rear surface of the panel board, and a decoration pattern can be light-emission-decorated uniformly.

  In addition, since the panel decoration board on which the light emitting means is mounted is attached to the panel holder via the board cover, the game machine can be used for transportation, installation in the game hall, maintenance work, etc. Even if vibration or impact is applied, it can be made difficult to be transmitted to the panel decorative substrate (light emitting means), and damage due to vibration or impact can be suppressed to reduce a decrease in durability. Further, since it is possible to make it difficult to transmit vibrations and shocks, it is possible to prevent the positional relationship between the panel decoration substrate and the panel plate from being shifted, and the positional relationship shift causes a defect in the light emitting decoration of the decorative pattern. This can be prevented, and light can be reliably incident on a desired portion of the side surface of the panel plate, so that the decoration pattern can be illuminated and decorated in a good state.

  In addition, since the frame-shaped front component member has the same substantially circular shape as the game area in the frame, and the outer shape is a quadrangle, the width between the inner periphery and the outer periphery of the front component member (panel holder) is It is widest at the four corners, and has a function display means mounting portion and a stamp sticking portion at two of the four corners, and is behind the function display means mounting portion and the stamp sticking portion in the panel holder. Since the panel decoration board is attached to each part, a space for attaching the panel decoration board can be easily secured, and a gaming machine having the above-described effects can be realized.

  Furthermore, the panel decoration board is attached to the board mounting recesses at the four corners of the panel holder, and the width between the inner periphery and the outer periphery of the frame-shaped panel holder is wider than the other parts at the part. Therefore, it is possible to increase the width of the panel decoration substrate when viewed from the front. And by increasing the width of the panel decoration board, the inclination of the panel decoration board due to manufacturing errors, mounting errors, etc. is reduced, so the deviation of the optical axis of the light emitting means mounted on the panel decoration board is reduced, and the light emission The light from the means can be reliably radiated to a desired portion on the side surface of the panel plate, and the decoration pattern formed on the panel plate can be surely illuminated and decorated.

  In addition, since the panel decoration board is attached behind the function display means attaching portion and the certificate sticking portion of the front component member, if the light emitting means emits light in order to decorate the decorative pattern, one of the light from the light emitting means is obtained. Is attached to the function display means mounting portion of the front component member by irradiating the front part or reflecting a part of the light incident on the side face of the panel board from the light emitting means to the front side of the panel board. The function sticker attached to the function display means and the sticker sticking part is illuminated from behind, and the function display means and the sticker or the periphery of the function display means and the sticker can be decorated with light emission. It is possible to give a strong impact to the player by the function display means and the light emission decoration (light emission effect) of the certificate paper, which was not seen in the previous game machines, and the function display means and the light emission decoration of the certificate paper More game can be reminiscent whether it not located in something good relative who let me increase the expectation for the game can be suppressed lowering of interest.

  Furthermore, since the board mounting recess is provided on the front face of the panel holder, the panel decoration board does not protrude forward from the front face of the panel holder by attaching the panel decoration board in the board mounting recess. The panel decoration substrate can be attached without increasing the thickness of the panel holder in the front-rear direction. In addition, the rear surface of the panel holder is provided with a connection concave portion from which the connection connector of the panel decorative board protrudes. When the panel decorative board is attached to the board mounting concave portion, the rear end of the connection connector is positioned at substantially the same position as the rear surface of the panel holder. Therefore, even if a panel decoration board is attached to the panel holder, the decoration pattern formed on the rear surface of the panel plate can be decorated with light emission while suppressing an increase in the thickness of the panel holder in the front-rear direction.

  In addition, because the back of the panel holder has a connect recess, you can connect or disconnect the mating connector from the connector on the panel decoration board by inserting your finger into the connect recess. Can increase the sex. In addition, as described above, the presence of the connection recess allows the connector to be easily inserted and removed without causing the connector to protrude rearward from the rear surface of the panel holder. An increase in thickness in the front-rear direction can be suppressed, and the same effect as described above can be achieved.

The first discharge port 44 b and the second discharge port 44 c do not communicate with the curtain plate internal space 40 a and are opened on the rear surface of the curtain plate rear member 43. Therefore, the game ball B that has entered the first discharge port 44 b and the second discharge port 44 c can be discharged to the rear of the curtain plate rear member 43.

  This ball biting prevention mechanism 44 is a case where an illegal tool such as a piano wire is inserted through a gap between the outer frame lower hinge member 60 and a main body frame lower hinge assembly 520 described later. Intrusion of an unauthorized tool can be prevented by the standing wall portion 44d rising from the rear end of the placement portion 44a. Even if the tip of an unauthorized tool contacts the standing wall 44d and bends upward, it contacts the upper end protruding part 44e provided at the upper end of the standing wall 44d and further intrudes. Can be prevented. Therefore, it is possible to prevent an illegal act from being performed through the portion of the outer frame lower hinge member 60.

  By the way, when the standing wall portion 44d is provided at the rear end of the placement portion 44a, when the main body frame 4 is opened with respect to the outer frame 2, the game ball B dropped on the placement portion 44a for some reason is Since the rearward movement of the outer frame 2 is prevented by 44d, the game ball B is likely to stay on the placement portion 44a. If the game ball B stays on the mounting portion 44 a, the game ball B is sandwiched between the outer frame 2 and the main body frame 4 when the main body frame 4 is closed with respect to the outer frame 2. Therefore, there arises a problem that the main body frame 4 cannot be closed.

  On the other hand, in the ball biting prevention mechanism 44 of the present embodiment, the game ball B dropped on the outer frame lower hinge member 60 or the placement portion 44a is transferred to the discharge hole 60d of the outer frame lower hinge member 60 and the first. The game ball B can be discharged to the rear of the curtain plate rear member 43 (rear of the outer frame 2) through the discharge port 44b or the second discharge port 44c, and between the outer frame 2 and the main body frame 4. It is possible to prevent the game ball B from being caught.

And a frame-shaped seal member 48 disposed at the upper end of the connecting tube portion 43a of the curtain plate rear member 43.

  The pair of guide members 45 are configured such that the lower end of the door frame 3 comes into contact with the outer frame 2 when the main body frame 4 is closed. The guide member 45 is made of a low friction material having a low frictional resistance, and makes the lower end of the main body frame 4 easy to slide to facilitate opening and closing.

  The grill member 46 is formed of a punching metal having innumerable small holes. The port member 47 communicates the curtain plate inner space 40 a (enclosure 624) and the front of the outer frame 2 through the grill member 46 by two cylinders. The port member 47 has two cylinders that are formed with a predetermined inner diameter and a predetermined length. The port member 47 resonates and amplifies a bass sound emitted backward (inside the enclosure 624) from the main body frame speaker 622 based on the principle of Helmholtz resonance. Thus, a rich bass can be radiated to the front (player side) of the outer frame 2. That is, in this embodiment, the enclosure 624 of the main body frame speaker 622 is a bass-reflex type, and a player can hear a heavy bass.

  When the main body frame 4 is closed with respect to the outer frame 2, the seal member 48 is sandwiched and compressed between the upper end of the connection cylinder portion 43 a and the lower end of the connection portion 621 c of the speaker cover 621 in the main body frame 4. This prevents the sound in the speaker enclosure from leaking from between the connection tube 43a and the connection 621c.

  The handle base 181 of the handle unit 180 includes a cylindrical base 181a extending in the front-rear direction, a disk-shaped front end 181b projecting radially from the front end of the base 181a, and a recess from the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical base 181a. And three groove portions 181c that extend in the axial direction and are formed at irregular intervals in the circumferential direction. The base portion 181 a of the handle base 181 is formed so that the outer diameter is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the cylindrical portion 102 a of the handle mounting member 102. Further, the three groove portions 181c are formed at positions corresponding to the three protrusions 102c of the cylindrical portion 102a in the handle mounting member 102. Accordingly, the base portion 181a can be inserted into the cylindrical portion 102a of the handle mounting member 102 with the three groove portions 181c aligned with the three protrusions 102c, and the protrusions 102c are respectively inserted into the three groove portions 181c. By being inserted, the handle base 181 cannot be rotated relative to the handle mounting member 102.

  The handle 182 includes four first protrusions 182a, second protrusions 182b, third protrusions 182c, and fourth protrusions 182d that protrude outward in the circumferential direction from the outer peripheral surface, and a rotation shaft (shaft member 187).

  The four first protrusions 182a, the second protrusion 182b, the third protrusion 182c, and the fourth protrusion 182d are sequentially provided in the clockwise direction when viewed from the front. More specifically, the first protrusion 182a bulges so that the side surface in the clockwise direction of the front view of the portion that protrudes most from the general outer peripheral surface of the handle 182 bulges outward, and the counter-rotation around the opposite side The side surface in the direction of is recessed (curled) so as to curve inward. The portion of the second protrusion 182b that protrudes most from the general outer peripheral surface of the handle 182 is separated from the portion of the first protrusion 182a that protrudes most in the clockwise direction by a rotation angle of about 85 degrees, and from the first protrusion 182a. Slightly low. The second protrusion 182b bulges so that the side face in the clockwise direction of the front projection of the second protrusion 182b bulges outward, and the side face in the counterclockwise direction that is the opposite side is curved inward. And is formed in a shape similar to the first protrusion 182a.

  The portion of the third protrusion 182c that protrudes most from the general outer peripheral surface of the handle 182 is away from the most protruded portion of the second protrusion 182b in a clockwise direction by a rotation angle of about 70 degrees, and the first protrusion 182a It protrudes at about half the height. The third protrusion 182c is inclined substantially linearly on the side surfaces on both sides, and more gently than the side surface in the counterclockwise direction where the side surface in the clockwise direction is the opposite side. The fourth protrusion 182d has a portion that protrudes most from the general outer peripheral surface of the handle 182 away from the most protruded portion of the third protrusion 182c in a clockwise direction by a rotation angle of about 55 degrees, and from the first protrusion 182a. It protrudes slightly higher. The fourth protrusion 182d is formed in a substantially isosceles triangle with side surfaces on both sides inclined substantially linearly.

  The cover pedestal 183 is formed in a disk shape and includes three mounting bosses 183a that protrude rearward from the rear surface. The three mounting bosses 183a are attached to the front surface of the handle base 181 through the slit 182e of the handle 182 from the front. Since the mounting boss 183a of the handle cover 185 passes through the slit 182e of the handle 182, the mounting boss 183a comes into contact with the circumferential end of the slit 182e, thereby restricting the rotation angle of the handle 182. In this example, the handle 182 can be rotated within a range of a rotation angle of about 120 degrees.

  The handle cover 185 has a front surface that bulges forward and has translucency. The handle cover 185 includes a lens member that is three-dimensionally formed of a transparent member. The handle cover 185 is decorated with light emission by appropriately emitting LEDs on the front surface of the handle decoration substrate 184.

  The handle unit 180 is attached to the handle attachment seat surface 101 b of the door frame base 101 via the handle attachment member 102. The handle mounting seating surface 101b of the door frame base 101 is inclined so that the right end side is located rearward of the left end side in plan view, and faces the outside (open side). The handle unit 180 that is attached to the pachinko machine 1 is also inclined to the outside in a plan view (in other words, the front end of the pachinko machine 1 is inclined to the outside of the pachinko machine 1 with respect to a line orthogonal to the front surface of the pachinko machine 1). Are attached and fixed to the door frame 3. Thereby, it is easy for a player to grip the handle 182 of the handle unit 180, and it is possible to perform a turning operation without feeling uncomfortable.

  The handle rotation detection sensor 189 of the handle unit 180 is a variable resistor. When the handle 182 is rotated, the detection shaft 189 a of the handle rotation detection sensor 189 rotates via the shaft member 187 and the transmission gear 188. The internal resistance of the handle rotation detection sensor 189 changes according to the rotation angle of the detection shaft 189a, and the driving force of the firing solenoid 542 in the ball launching device 540 described later changes according to the internal resistance of the handle rotation detection sensor 189. The game ball B is driven into the game area 5a with a strength corresponding to the rotation angle of the handle 182.

  The handle touch sensor 192 detects static electricity acting on the handle unit 180. When the player touches the handle 182 or the like, the handle touch sensor 192 detects static electricity acting from the player, and the player touches the handle 182 or the like. Detect contact. When the handle 182 is rotated while the handle touch sensor 192 detects a player's contact, the detection of the handle rotation detection sensor 189 is accepted, and the firing solenoid has a strength corresponding to the rotation angle of the handle 182. The drive of 542 is controlled and the game ball B can be driven. That is, the handle touch sensor 192 does not detect the player's contact even if the player tries to drive the game ball B into the game area 5a by rotating the handle 182 by some method without touching the handle 182. Therefore, the firing solenoid 542 is not driven and the game ball B cannot be driven. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the player from playing the game by rotating the handle 182 in a different way from the original, and to reduce the load (burden) on the game hall where the pachinko machine 1 is installed. .

  Further, when the player presses the single button 193 while the player rotates the handle 182, the single button operation sensor 194 detects the operation of the single button 193, and the launch control unit 633b of the payout control board 633 detects the handle unit 180. The driving of the firing solenoid 542 is stopped. Thereby, even if it does not return rotation operation of the handle | steering-wheel 182, while launching of the game ball B can be stopped temporarily, by releasing the press operation of the single button 193, before operating the single button 193, The game ball B can be driven again into the game area 5a with the driving strength.

  Furthermore, the handle unit 180 includes four first protrusions 182a, second protrusions 182b, third protrusions 182c, and fourth protrusions 182d on the handle 182, and the handle 182 rotates most in the clockwise direction when viewed from the front. Thus, when the game ball B is most strongly struck into the game area 5a (so-called “right-handed”), the fourth protrusion 182d is formed on the first protrusion 182a when the handle 182 is not rotated. Since the position is substantially the same as the position, by changing the handle 182 with the fourth protrusion 182d as the first protrusion 182a, the player can maintain the handle 182 in the "right-handed" position in an easy state, It is possible to reduce a player's feeling of fatigue and suppress a decrease in interest in the game.

The outer periphery decorative lens 379 is attached to the upper side of the substrate portion 378 a in the outer periphery substrate cover 378. The outer peripheral button cover 380 includes a cylindrical cylindrical portion 380a that covers the outer periphery of the outer peripheral decorative lens 379, and an annular annular portion 380b that extends from the upper end of the cylindrical portion 380a toward the center. As for the outer periphery button cover 380, the lower end of the cylindrical part 380a is attached to the raising / lowering base 364. As shown in FIG. The annular portion 380 b has an inner diameter that is substantially the same size as the cylindrical portion 378 b of the outer peripheral substrate cover 378.

  When the production operation button unit 360 is assembled, as shown in FIG. 62 (a), the guide pin 364d of the lift base 364 is in a state where the lift base 364 is biased upward by a pair of lift springs 365. It is inserted from below into the engaging portion 371c of the cam portion 371a of the elevating cam member 371. In this state, the lift base 364 is in the lowered position where it has moved downward, and the pair of lift springs 365 is compressed. Further, in this state, the central button body 373 is positioned at the upward movement end by the urging force of the button spring 374, and the upper surface of the central button cover 375 protrudes upward from the upper surface of the outer peripheral button cover 380. It has become.

  Accordingly, when assembled in the effect operation unit 300, the upper surface of the outer peripheral button cover 380 protrudes slightly above the upper surface of the effect operation ring 330, and the upper surface of the central button cover 375 is higher than the upper surface of the outer peripheral button cover 380. Also protrudes upward (see FIG. 63 and the like).

  In this state (the state shown in FIG. 62A), when the central button cover 375 (central pressing operation portion 303a) is pressed downward and moved downward against the urging force of the button spring 374, the central button body 373 is moved. The pressure detection piece 373e is detected by the pressure detection sensor 381, and the pressing operation of the central pressing operation portion 303a is detected. In a state in which the center pressing operation portion 303a is pressed, the upper surface of the center button cover 375 is substantially the same height as the upper surface of the outer peripheral button cover 380 (see FIG. 65C).

  In this state, even if the outer peripheral button cover 380 (outer peripheral pressing operation portion 303b) is pressed downward, the outer peripheral button cover 380 does not move downward, and the press detection piece 373e of the central button body 373 is pressed. It is not detected by the detection sensor 381. That is, the pressing operation of the pressing operation unit 303 is not detected.

  When the lift drive gear 368 is rotated counterclockwise in plan view by the operation button lift drive motor 367 in the lowered position, the lift cam is driven via the driven gear 369 engaged with the lift drive gear 368. The gear member 370 rotates in the counterclockwise direction in plan view, and the elevating cam member 371 connected to the elevating cam drive gear member 370 also rotates in the same direction. When the elevating cam member 371 rotates counterclockwise, the cam portion 371a seen in the front in FIG. 62 moves to the right, and the guide pin 364d of the elevating base 364 is moved from the locking portion 371c to the first position. The cam 371b rolls to the left portion of the locking portion 371c, and the lifting base 364 moves downward against the biasing force of the lifting spring 365 via the guide pin 364d.

  When the guide pin 364d that rolls relatively to the left along the first cam 371b with the rotation of the lifting cam member 371 is positioned from the left end of the first cam 371b to the second cam 371d side, Since the two cams 371d extend vertically upward with respect to the first cam 371b, the urging force of the elevating spring 365 moves the guide pin 364d along the second cam 371d, and the guide pin 364d At the same time, the lifting base 364 is raised to a raised position.

  In the raised position, as shown in FIG. 62 (b), the guide pin 364d of the lifting base 364 is in contact with the second cam 371d of one cam portion 371a and the third cam 371e of the remaining cam portion 371a. It is in a state. In this state, the driving of the operation button lifting / lowering drive motor 367 is temporarily stopped.

  In the raised position, the upper end of the upright wall portion 364c of the lifting base 364 is in contact with the lower surface of the upper base 363, and further upward movement of the lifting base 364 is restricted. In the raised position, the positional relationship between the central button cover 375 (central pressing operation portion 303a) and the outer peripheral button cover 380 (outer peripheral pressing operation portion 303b) at the lowering position is maintained, and the central button cover 375 is maintained. In addition, the entire pressing operation unit 303 including the outer peripheral button cover 380 is moved upward, and the upper surface of the central button cover 375 protrudes upward from the upper surface of the outer peripheral button cover 380.

  When assembled in the production operation unit 300 and moved to the raised position, the center button cover 375 and the outer button cover 380 are in a state of projecting larger than the upper surface of the production operation ring 330 (see FIG. 65B, etc.). reference).

  When the central button cover 375 (central pressing operation portion 303 a) is pressed downward with a force stronger than the urging force of the button spring 374 in the raised position, the central button cover 375 and the central button body 373 are attached to the button spring 374. The center button body 373 comes into contact with the lifting base 364 by moving downward against the force. In a state where the central button body 373 is in contact with the lifting base 364, the press detection piece 373e of the central button body 373 protrudes downward from the lifting base 364, but the lifting base 364 is the button unit base 361. Therefore, the pressure detection piece 373e is not detected by the pressure detection sensor 381.

  When the central button cover 375 (central pressing operation portion 303a) is pressed downward with a force stronger than the urging force of the elevating spring 365, the central button cover 375 and the central button body 373 resist the urging force of the button spring 374, After the central button body 373 contacts the lifting base 364, the lifting base 364 moves downward against the urging force of the lifting spring 365, and the lower end of the lifting base 364 contacts the button unit base 361. Become. When the elevating base 364 contacts the button unit base 361, the elevating base 364 is in the lowered position, and the outer button cover 380 (outer peripheral pressing operation portion 303b) is also in the lowered position together with the elevating base 364.

  As described above, when the elevating base 364 contacts the button unit base 361 in a state where the central button main body 373 is in contact with the elevating base 364, the pressing detection piece 373e of the central button main body 373 protruding downward from the elevating base 364. Is detected by the press detection sensor 381, and the pressing of the center button cover 375 (the center pressing operation portion 303a) is detected.

  On the other hand, when the outer peripheral button cover 380 (outer peripheral pressing operation portion 303b) is pressed downward with a force higher than the urging force of the elevating spring 365 in the raised position, the elevating base 364 is moved up and down via the outer peripheral button cover 380. The lower end of the elevating base 364 comes into contact with the button unit base 361 by moving downward against the urging force of 365. In this state, the outer peripheral button cover 380 is in the lowered position together with the elevating base 364. However, since the central button cover 375 (central pressing operation portion 303a) protrudes upward by the urging force of the button spring 374, the central button body The pressure detection piece 373e of 373 does not protrude downward from the lift base 364, and the pressure detection piece 373e is not detected by the pressure detection sensor 381.

  In order to return the central button cover 375 and the outer peripheral button cover 380 (the pressing operation unit 303) from the raised position to the lowered position, the raising / lowering cam member 371 is rotated counterclockwise by the operation button raising / lowering drive motor 367. 62B, the third cam 371e that is in contact with the upper left of the guide pin 364d of the lifting base 364 moves to the right (in the direction of the guide pin 364d). The guide pin 364d is pressed downward by 371e, and the lift base 364 moves downward against the biasing force of the lift spring 365 via the guide pin 364d.

  When the guide pin 364d moves from the lower end of the third cam 371e toward the first cam 371b along with the rotation of the lift cam member 371, the downward movement of the lift base 364 stops, and the guide pin 364d moves to the first cam. Roll along 371b. Thereafter, when the guide pin 364d reaches the position of the locking portion 371c in the middle of the first cam 371b, the guide pin 364d is inserted into the locking portion 371c recessed upward by the urging force of the elevating spring 365, and the operation By stopping the rotation of the lift cam member 371 by the button lift drive motor 367, the original lowered position is obtained.

[3-5e-9. Operation unit relay board unit]
The operation unit relay board unit 390 in the effect operation unit 300 will be described in detail with reference mainly to FIGS. The operation unit relay board unit 390 is attached to the rear surface of the operation unit base 320. The operation unit relay board unit 390 includes a box-shaped substrate box 391 attached to the rear surface of the main body 321 in the operation unit base 320, and an operation unit relay board 392 attached in the board box 391.

  The board box 391 has a motor cover part 391a that covers the operation ring drive motor 342 of the rotation drive unit 340 from the rear side when the board box 391 is assembled to the effect operation unit 300. The operation unit relay board 392 includes a dish center upper decoration board 314, a dish center lower decoration board 316, an operation ring drive motor 342, a first rotation detection sensor 347, a second rotation detection sensor 348, a production operation ring decoration board 352, and a vibration speaker. 354, the operation button lifting / lowering drive motor 367, the central button decorative board 376, the outer peripheral button decorative board 377, the press detection sensor 381, the lift detection sensor 382, and the tray unit relay board 214 of the dish base unit 210 are relayed. Yes.

[3-5e-10. Effect of production operation unit]
Next, the operation of the effect operation unit 300 will be described in detail with reference mainly to FIGS. FIG. 63 is an explanatory diagram showing the relationship between the effect operation ring and the rotary drive unit in the left side view of the effect operation unit. FIG. 64 is an explanatory diagram showing a relationship between the effect operation ring and the effect operation ring decorative board in a plan view of the effect operation unit as seen from the pressing direction of the pressing operation unit. FIG. 65 (a) is a front view of the dish unit shown in a normal state, (b) is a front view of the dish unit when the pressing operation part is in the raised position, and (c) is a central pressing of the pressing operation part. It is a front view of a dish unit when an operation part is pressed.

  The effect operation unit 300 includes an effect operation unit 301 that can be operated by a player on the upper surface. The effect operation unit 301 includes a large annular rotation operation unit 302 and a pressing operation unit 303 arranged in the ring of the rotation operation unit 302. The pressing operation unit 303 includes a columnar central pressing operation unit 303 a located at the center of the rotation operating unit 302, and an annular outer peripheral pressing operation unit disposed between the central pressing operation unit 303 a and the rotation operating unit 302. 303b.

  The rotation operation unit 302 is formed by the ring outer upper cover 335, the ring outer lower cover 336, and the ring inner cover 337 of the effect operation ring 330. The central pressing operation portion 303a is formed by the central button cover 375 and the central button body 373 of the effect operation button unit 360, and the outer peripheral pressing operation portion 303b is formed by the outer peripheral button cover 380 and the outer peripheral substrate cover 378.

  The production operation unit 300 is assembled to the dish unit 200 in an inclined state so that the front side of the virtual plane formed by the upper surface of the annular rotation operation unit 302 (production operation ring 330) is lowered. Accordingly, the pressing direction of the pressing operation unit 303 disposed in the ring of the rotation operation unit 302 is inclined so as to move backward as it goes downward (in other words, move forward as it goes upward). .

  In the normal operation state, the production operation unit 300 has a state in which the pressing operation unit 303 slightly protrudes from the upper surface of the rotation operation unit 302. Specifically, the upper surface of the outer peripheral button cover 380 slightly protrudes upward from the upper surface of the effect operation ring 330, and the upper surface of the central button cover 375 protrudes upward from the upper surface of the outer peripheral button cover 380. (See FIG. 63 and the like).

  In this normal state, when the transmission detection gear member 345 is rotated clockwise as viewed from the left side by the operation ring drive motor 342 of the rotation drive unit 340, the effect operation ring 330 is transmitted via the operation ring transmission gear 350. The rotation operation unit 302 rotates in the clockwise direction in plan view. On the other hand, when the transmission detection gear member 345 is rotated counterclockwise in the left side view by the operation ring drive motor 342, the rotation operation unit 302 of the effect operation ring 330 is rotated in the counterclockwise direction in the plan view. .

  The operation ring drive motor 342 is a stepping motor, and can rotate and reciprocate the rotation operation unit 302 by repeating normal rotation and reverse rotation within a range of a predetermined rotation angle. Unlike the vibration by the vibration speaker 354, only the rotation operation unit 302 vibrates.

  The rotation operation unit 302 of the effect operation ring 330 can be rotated not only by the operation ring drive motor 342 but also by the player. When the rotation operation unit 302 is rotated in the clockwise direction in a plan view, the transmission detection gear member 345 of the rotation drive unit 340 is rotated in the clockwise direction in the left side view via the operation ring transmission gear 350 and rotated. When the operation unit 302 is rotated in the counterclockwise direction in plan view, the transmission detection gear member 345 is rotated in the counterclockwise direction in left side view. The transmission detection gear member 345 detects rotation by two sensors, a first rotation detection sensor 347 and a second rotation detection sensor 348.

  The rotation of the transmission detection gear member 345 is detected by detecting the plurality of detection pieces 345b by the first rotation detection sensor 347 and the second rotation detection sensor 348. More specifically, the interval between the first rotation detection sensor 347 and the second rotation detection sensor 348 that are separated in the circumferential direction is smaller than the interval between the plurality of detection pieces 345b that are arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction. The interval is not an integer multiple. Thereby, the 1st rotation detection sensor 347 and the 2nd rotation detection sensor 348 are constituted so that detection piece 345b may not be detected at the same timing.

  In this embodiment, when the transmission detection gear member 345 rotates in the clockwise direction in the left side view, the second rotation detection sensor 348 detects the detection piece 345b and then the first rotation detection sensor 347 detects the detection piece 345b. To do. On the other hand, when the transmission detection gear member 345 rotates counterclockwise in the left side view, the first rotation detection sensor 347 detects the detection piece 345b and then the second rotation detection sensor 348 detects the detection piece 345b. Detect. Therefore, the first rotation detection sensor 347 and the second rotation detection sensor 348 can detect the rotation direction of the transmission detection gear member 345 (the rotation operation unit 302) according to the order in which the detection pieces 345b are detected. Further, the rotation speed of the transmission detection gear member 345 (the rotation operation unit 302) can be detected based on the detection time of the detection piece 345b in the first rotation detection sensor 347 and the second rotation detection sensor 348.

  Thus, since the rotation operation of the rotation operation unit 302 can be detected, the content of the player participation type effect can be changed according to the rotation direction of the rotation operation unit 302. Further, when the rotation operation of the rotation operation unit 302 is detected, the rotation operation unit 302 is driven to rotate in the same direction as the rotation operation direction by the operation ring drive motor 342, so that the rotation operation can be lightly assisted. . Alternatively, by rotating the rotation operation unit 302 in the direction opposite to the rotation operation direction by the operation ring drive motor 342, the rotation operation can be made heavy or a click feeling can be given.

  The rotation operation portion 302 of the effect operation ring 330 is formed by a ring outer upper cover 335, a ring outer lower cover 336, and a ring inner cover 337, and is formed in a shape in which an arc of more than half of a circle extends in an annular shape. ing. In other words, the rotation operation unit 302 is formed in a donut shape. As shown in the figure, the rotation operation unit 302 is attached in a state in which the outer peripheral surface, the upper surface, and a part of the inner peripheral surface are exposed, and thus is formed in a shape that can be easily grasped by the player's hand. .

  Thereby, since the player can touch the rotation operation unit 302 from various directions, the rotation operation unit 302 can be operated to rotate in a manner that is easy for the player to perform. Sexuality is enhanced. Further, the rotation operation unit 302 can be rotated even when the pressing operation unit 303 is in either the lowered position or the raised position. In addition, since the lower surface side of the rotation operation unit 302 is attached to the operation unit base 320, the rotation operation unit 302 cannot be gripped like a car handle.

  As shown in FIG. 64, the effect operation unit 300 includes an effect operation ring decoration board 352 in which a plurality of LEDs are arranged in an annular shape below the effect operation ring 330. As a result, the rotation operation unit 302 of the effect operation ring 330 can be illuminated and decorated by causing the LEDs of the effect operation ring decoration substrate 352 to emit light. In addition, since the plurality of LEDs are arranged in a ring shape along the rotation operation unit 302 in the production operation ring decorative substrate 352, the plurality of LEDs arranged in sequence are sequentially arranged in accordance with the rotation of the rotation operation unit 302. By emitting light, it is possible to decorate only a specific part of the rotating operation unit 302 that is rotating. Thereby, it is possible to make the player have an illusion that an LED (decorative substrate) is provided in the rotating operation unit 302 that rotates.

  As shown in FIG. 65A, the production operation unit 300 has a pressing operation unit 303 arranged in the ring of the rotation operation unit 302 with an upper surface higher than the upper surface of the rotation operation unit 302 in a normal state. It is in a state of a lowered position slightly protruding upward. In this state, the rotation operation unit 302 can be rotated, and the center pressing operation unit 303a in the pressing operation unit 303 can be pressed. When the center pressing operation portion 303a is pressed downward, the upper surface of the center pressing operation portion 303a (central button cover 375) is lowered to substantially the same height as the upper surface of the outer periphery pressing operation portion 303b (outer periphery button cover 380). The pressure is detected by the sensor 381.

  In this normal (downward position) state, even if the outer periphery pressing operation portion 303b of the pressing operation portion 303 is pressed downward, the outer periphery pressing operation portion 303b (outer periphery button cover 380) does not move downward, and pressure detection is performed. The pressure is not detected by the sensor 381.

  When the lifting cam member 371 is rotated counterclockwise in plan view by the operation button lifting drive motor 367 in a normal state, the guide pin 364d of the lifting base 364 is detached from the cam portion 371a (first cam 371b). Due to the urging force of the pair of elevating springs 365, the pressing operation portion 303 together with the elevating base 364 vigorously protrudes upward to be in the raised position (see FIG. 65 (b)). In this raised position state, the upper surface of the pressing operation unit 303 is positioned higher than the upper surface of the rotation operation unit 302. In other words, the center button cover 375 and the outer peripheral button cover 380 protrude upwardly from the upper surface of the effect operation ring 330.

  When the central pressing operation unit 303a is pressed downward while the pressing operation unit 303 is in the raised position, the central pressing operation unit 303a first moves downward against the urging force of the button spring 374, and the central pressing operation unit 303a The upper surface and the upper surface of the outer periphery pressing operation part 303b are in a state of substantially the same height. In this state, the pressure detection sensor 381 does not detect pressure. Further, the central pressing operation portion 303 a moves downward together with the outer peripheral pressing operation portion 303 b against the urging force of the elevating spring 365, and the upper surfaces of the central pressing operation portion 303 a and the outer peripheral pressing operation portion 303 b are the rotation operating portion 302. The height is substantially the same as the top surface (see FIG. 65C). In this state, the press detection sensor 381 detects the press.

  Further, when the outer periphery pressing operation portion 303b is pressed downward in a state where the pressing operation portion 303 is in the raised position, the upper surface of the central pressing operation portion 303a remains protruding above the upper surface of the outer periphery pressing operation portion 303b. The outer periphery pressing operation portion 303b and the center pressing operation portion 303a move downward, and the upper surface of the outer periphery pressing operation portion 303b is substantially in the same height as the upper surface of the rotation operation portion 302 (see FIG. 65 (a)). . In this state, the pressure detection sensor 381 does not detect pressure.

  As described above, the pressing operation unit 303 of the present embodiment is not detected by the pressing detection sensor 381 unless the center pressing operation unit 303a is pressed to the lower moving end regardless of the lowered position or the raised position. ing. Accordingly, it is possible to prompt the player to firmly press the center pressing operation portion 303a, and thus attention can be drawn to the operation of the effect operation portion 301 in the player participation type effect. , The player participation type production can be more enjoyed.

  Even when the pressing operation unit 303 is in the raised position, the rotation operation unit 302 can be rotated. Therefore, when the pressing operation unit 303 is in the raised position, depending on the player, the rotation operation becomes easier with the pressing operation unit 303 as a clue, or the rotation operation is difficult due to the pressing operation unit 303 being in the way. Therefore, the operability of the rotation operation unit 302 can be changed, and more various operations can be enjoyed.

Is formed. The connection cable guide member 502 is attached so that the attachment shaft 502c can rotate around an axis extending vertically near the right end in the cable attachment recess 501h. Thereby, the connection cable guide member 502 can be rotated (hinged) so that the left end side protrudes forward.

  The connection cable guide member 502 is for guiding the connection cable 503. The connection cable 503 is composed of a plurality of wiring cords, one end of which is connected to the interface board 635 of the board unit 620, and the other end is the door frame main relay board 104 and the door frame sub-board of the door frame 3. Connected to the relay board 105.

  Then, the effect by the connection cable guide member 502 is demonstrated. As shown in FIG. 84 and the like, the connection cable guide member 502 has an end portion (right end portion) opposite to the side (left side) on which the door frame 3 is attached to the main body frame base 501 so as to be able to rotate the hinge. ) Is rotatably mounted around an axis extending in parallel with the hinge axis of the door frame 3.

  The connection cable 503 that connects the interface board 635 of the main body frame 4 to the door frame main relay board 104 and the door frame sub relay board 105 of the door frame 3 is connected to the interface board 635 on the side connected to the connection cable guide member. The left and right directions of the plurality of through-holes 502d formed on the upper and lower ends of the guide body 502a are in contact with the front surface of the guide body 502a so as to extend from the right to the left of the guide body 502a. It is attached to the guide body 502a by being tightened together with the guide body 502a by a binding band 504 inserted through a set of through holes 502d at the same position.

  The connection cable guide member 502 of the main body frame 4 is assembled to the pachinko machine 1 and the rear side of the door frame main relay board 104 and the door frame sub relay board 105 of the door frame 3 with the door frame 3 closed with respect to the main body frame 4. (See FIG. 84 (a)). In this state, after the connection cable 503 extends leftward from the connection cable guide member 502, the connection cable 503 is bent back in front of the lower hinge mounting portion 501 l and passes through the cable holder 103 a of the door frame 3 to open the door frame relay board cover. It extends into 107. The cable holder 103 a of the door frame 3 is disposed on the left side of the left end of the connection cable guide member 502.

  In this state, if the door frame 3 is hinge-rotated so as to open with respect to the main body frame 4, the left end side of the connection cable guide member 502 is pulled forward by the side attached to the door frame 3 in the connection cable 503, The connection cable guide member 502 rotates about the right end mounting shaft 502c. At this time, in this embodiment, the relationship between the opening angle α of the door frame 3 and the opening angle β of the connection cable guide member 502 satisfies α / 2 ≧ β (preferably α / 3 ≧ β). (See FIG. 84B).

  The opening angle β of the connection cable guide member 502 is 0 degrees when the door frame 3 is closed (when the opening angle α of the door frame 3 is 0 degrees). The opening angle β of the connection cable guide member 502 increases as the door frame 3 is opened and the opening angle α increases. However, the increase stops when the opening angle α becomes larger than a certain degree (for example, about 90 degrees). It changes as follows. In this embodiment, the maximum angle of the open angle β is less than 45 degrees.

  Thus, when the door frame 3 is opened, the connection cable guide member 502 rotates so that the left end side of the connection cable guide member 502 moves forward from the main body frame base 501. By guiding the connection cable 503, it is possible to prevent the connection cable 503 from hanging between the door frame 3 and the main body frame 4.

  When the opened door frame 3 is closed, the portion of the connection cable 503 attached to the door frame 3 moves relatively rearward, so that the left end side of the connection cable guide member 502 is pushed rearward by the connection cable 503. Then, the connection cable guide member 502 rotates so that the left end side moves rearward about the attachment shaft 502c. At this time, since the connection cable guide member 502 is opened at an open angle β of less than 45 degrees, the connection cable guide member 502 does not hinder the door frame 3 from moving in the closing direction, and the door frame 3 It can be closed smoothly. Further, since the connection cable 503 is guided by the connection cable guide member 502, the connection cable 503 is not sandwiched between the door frame 3 and the main body frame 4 when the door frame 3 is closed, and the connection cable 503. It is possible to prevent a malfunction from occurring.

  Further, when the door frame 3 is closed with respect to the main body frame 4, the connection cable 503 guided by the connection cable guide member 502 is folded back by 180 degrees, so that the connection cable 503 is folded at the folded portion. You can attach a heel. As a result, when the door frame 3 is opened and the portion of the connection cable 503 that is folded back 180 degrees is changed to open, a force to close the connection cable 503 due to folding is applied. Therefore, when the door frame 3 is closed, it is possible to prevent the connection cable 503 (connection cable guide member 502) from moving in the opening direction due to its folding, and to connect the connection cable 503 (connection cable guide member 502). The door frame 3 can be guided in the closing direction, and the door frame 3 can be smoothly closed.

  Further, on the door frame 3 side, the folded connection cable 503 is positioned closer to the center axis (axial center) of the door frame upper hinge pin 122 and the door frame lower hinge pin 126 than the tip of the connection cable guide member 502. Therefore, when the door frame 3 is closed with respect to the main body frame 4, the connection cable guide member 502 holds the distal end side of the connection cable guide member 502 with the door frame upper hinge pin 122 and the door frame 3. The door frame lower hinge pin 126 can be pulled toward the central axis (axial core) side.

  In the present embodiment, the door passes more than the cable holder 103a in the speaker duct 103 around the center axis (axial axis) of the hinge pin 122 on the door frame and the hinge pin 126 on the door frame through the rotation center of the connection cable guide member 502. The angle at which the tangent line that touches the circle passing through the portion (pressing portion) protruding rearward on the central axis (axial center) side of the upper hinge pin 122 and the lower door hinge pin 126 intersects the front surface of the main body frame 4 is 45 degrees. The configuration is as follows. Accordingly, when the door frame 3 is closed with respect to the main body frame 4, the pressing portion abuts on the connection cable 503, thereby closing the distal end side of the connection cable guide member 502 opened via the connection cable 503. Therefore, the connection cable guide member 502 can be smoothly closed with the movement of the door frame 3 in the closing direction, and the door frame 3 can be reliably closed. Further, since the maximum opening angle β of the connection cable guide member 502 that rotates (opens and closes) when the door frame 3 is opened and closed can be set to 45 degrees or less, the connection cable guide member 502 is closed when the door frame 3 is closed. Can be reliably rotated in the closing direction, and the same effect as described above can be obtained.

And a ball ejecting lever 593 that is slidable in the vertical direction by a dispensing device main body 581 and a dispensing device rear lid 582.

  The payout device 580 is formed in a quadrangular shape whose plan view extends vertically. The payout device 580 is formed such that the width in the left-right direction is larger to the right in the front view than the width in the left-right direction of the ball guiding unit 570.

  As shown in FIG. 89, the payout passage 580a of the payout device 580 has an upstream end opened upward at a position leftward from the center in the left-right direction and a downstream end at a position near the right end in the left-right direction. It opens downward. The payout passage 580a extends obliquely downward from about 1/3 of the total height so as to move gradually to the left as it goes downward from the upstream end, and then bends slightly diagonally downward to the right. It bends at about ３ of the left and right width and extends downward substantially vertically so as to go to the center (rotary axis) of the delivery vane 589. Then, on the upper side of the center of the payout blade 589, after bending to the right in the rear view with a width slightly larger than the outer diameter of the game ball B, a gap slightly larger than the game ball B between the outer periphery of the payout blade 589 Is extended downward in a concentric circular arc shape with the discharge vane 589, and vertically extends to the downstream end at a position on the right side of the rear view from the center of the discharge vane 589.

  In the payout passage 580a, a payout detection sensor 591 is disposed below the payout blade 589 and immediately above the downstream end.

  The ball extraction passage 580b is branched at a portion that extends obliquely downward from the upstream end in the payout passage 580a and bends to the right, and extends vertically to the lower end along the left side when viewed from the back. It opens downward near the left end.

  The payout device main body 581 and the payout device rear cover 582 are opposed to each other on the side where the ball removal movable piece 592 is attached at the portion where the payout passage 580a and the ball removal passage 580b are branched. The main body side guide wall 581a is formed so as to protrude rearward and frontward from each other so as to form a narrower gap, and to be continuous with the left side wall in the rear view of the payout passage 580a and the ball extraction passage 580b. And a rear lid side guide wall 582a. The main body side guide wall 581a and the rear lid side guide wall 582a branch from the ball extraction passage 580b in the payout passage 580a and extend to the right in the rear view at a position about 1/3 from above. It is formed at the left position. The main body side guide wall 581a and the rear lid side guide wall 582a are curved so as to be recessed obliquely upward to the left in the rear view, and are mainly formed to constitute the side wall of the ball extraction passage 580b. The ball extraction movable piece 592 rotates between the main body side guide wall 581a and the rear lid side guide wall 582a.

  The payout motor 584 is attached to the right in the rear view of the part where the payout passage 580a in the payout device main body 581 extends obliquely downward from the upstream end. The drive gear 585, the first transmission gear 586, the second transmission gear 587, and the payout gear member 588 are disposed in front of the payout device main body 581, and the front side is covered with the payout device front lid 583. The payout gear member 588 includes three plate-like detection pieces 588b extending outward at an angular interval of 120 degrees in the circumferential direction.

  The payout blade 589 is disposed between the payout device main body 581 and the payout device rear cover 582. The payout blade 589 is provided with a plurality of blade pieces 589a extending outward in a flat plate shape at intervals of 120 degrees in the circumferential direction. The blade piece 589a extends in the payout passage 580a from the upper side toward the rotation axis and then extends to the right in the rear view so that the space between the blade piece 589a and the side wall of the payout passage B is narrower than the outer diameter of the game ball B. And protrudes into the payout passage 580a. The payout vane 589 includes a ball accommodating portion 589b that is recessed with an arc having a radius slightly larger than the radius of the game ball B toward the center between the three blade pieces 589a. Only one game ball B can be accommodated in the ball accommodating portion 589b. Thereby, the payout blade 589 can restrict the movement of the game ball B in the payout passage 580a to the downstream side of the payout blade 589 by the blade piece 589a and rotate in the clockwise direction when viewed from the rear. Thereby, the game ball B accommodated in the ball accommodating portion 589b can be moved to the downstream side.

  The payout gear member 588 and the payout blade 589 are attached coaxially by a payout device rear lid 582 and a payout device front lid 583 so as to be integrally rotatable. The blade rotation detection sensor 590 is arranged on the left side of the rotation shaft of the payout gear member 588 in the rear view. The blade rotation detection sensor 590 detects the rotation of the dispensing blade 589 by detecting the detection piece 588b of the dispensing gear member 588 that rotates integrally with the dispensing blade 589.

  The upper end of the ball removal movable piece 592 is rotatably attached around an axis extending in the front-rear direction at the upper ends of the main body side guide wall 581a and the rear lid side guide wall 582a. The ball-moving movable piece 592 is bent in a square shape, and is attached so that the recessed side faces the inside of the dispensing passage 580a. The ball-moving movable piece 592 has a depth in the front-rear direction that is smaller than a gap between the main body side guide wall 581a and the rear lid side guide wall 582a, and the main body side guide wall 581a and the rear lid side guide wall 582a. It is possible to project into the ball extraction passage 580b or retreat out of the ball extraction passage 580b through the gap between the two.

  The ball release lever 593 is attached to the payout device main body 581 and the payout device rear cover 582 so as to be slidable in the vertical direction in the rear left view near the upper end of the ball removal movable piece 592. A part of the ball pulling lever 593 passes through the dispensing device rear lid 582 and protrudes backward, and can be slid by operating the protruding portion. By positioning the ball removal lever 593 at the lower end, the lower portion can come into contact with the ball removal movable piece 592, and the rotation of the ball removal movable piece 592 in the clockwise direction in the rear view can be restricted. The ball removal passage 580b can be closed by the ball removal movable piece 592. Further, by positioning the ball removal lever 593 at the rising end, the ball removal movable piece 592 can be rotated to the outside of the ball removal passage 580b, and the ball removal passage 580b can be opened (FIG. 90).

  When the ball removal lever 593 is raised to turn the ball removal movable piece 592 so that the ball removal movable piece 592 can be rotated, the game ball B that has been in a state of being connected in a daisy chain on the upstream side of the ball removal movable piece 592 becomes the ball removal movable piece 592. Will flow down to the ball passage 580b side. At this time, since the ball extraction passage 580b extends straight from the upstream side of the payout passage 580a, the game ball B flowing down from the upstream of the payout passage 580a flows down straight to the ball discharge passage 580b. At the same time, since the downstream side of the ball removal passage 580b communicates with the island facility side, there is no such thing as the payout blade 589 that suppresses the flow of the game ball B, so that the game ball B is from the payout passage 580a side. Will flow down as soon as possible.

  In this way, in a state where the ball removal movable piece 592 is rotatable, the game ball B flows down at a high speed in the ball removal passage 580b, so that the ball removal movable piece 592 protruding into the ball removal passage 580b. The game ball B comes into contact with the lower end side of the ball, but the ball removal movable piece 592 passes between the main body side guide wall 581a of the payout device main body 581 and the rear cover side guide wall 582a of the payout device rear cover 582. Since it can move outward from the inner surface of the ball extraction passage 580b, the ball extraction movable piece 592 is moved to the outside of the ball extraction passage 580b by the abutment force. The game ball B is not sandwiched between the wall surface of the extraction passage 580b and the game ball B, so that a strong force can be prevented from acting on the ball extraction movable piece 592. Piece 59 Deterioration and breakage of the durability can be suppressed.

  For this reason, it is possible to make it difficult to damage the ball removal movable piece 592, so that more game balls B can be discharged earlier to the island facility side downstream of the ball removal passage 580 b. An increase in time required for replacement or maintenance of the machine 1 can be suppressed, and the burden on the game hall side can be reduced.

  Further, when the ball removal movable piece 592 is in a rotatable state, the ball removal movable piece 592 passes between the main body side guide wall 581a and the rear lid side guide wall 582a which are closer than the game ball B, and the ball removal passage 580b. Since the game ball B comes into contact with the ball removal movable piece 592 protruding into the ball removal passage 580b, the ball removal movable piece 592 is moved between the main body side guide wall 581a and the rear lid side guide wall 582a. Even when the game ball B moves together with the ball removal movable piece 592 to the side between the main body side guide wall 581a and the rear cover side guide wall 582a when moving outward through the gap, the distance from the game ball B is larger. Only the game ball B can be prevented from moving outwardly between the narrow main body side guide wall 581a and the rear lid side guide wall 582a.

  Then, the movement of the game ball B to the outside is prevented by the space between the main body side guide wall 581a and the rear lid side guide wall 582a, so that the game ball B is separated from the ball removal movable piece 592, and the subsequent ball Since the movable movable piece 592 is moved by an inertial force, a strong force is not applied to the movable ball movable piece 592, and the movable ball movable piece 592 can be made difficult to be damaged, and the body side guide The game ball B does not jump out of the ball extraction passage 580b from between the wall 581a and the rear lid side guide wall 582a, and the game ball B can be reliably circulated downstream of the ball extraction passage 580b.

Thereby, the game ball B released (paid out) from the payout passage 580a of the payout device 580 passes through the upper payout ball receiving passage 600a and the upper ball storage passage 600b, and then the upper normal payout passage 600c or the upper full tank discharge passage 600d. Is released downward from any of the above. The game ball B released downward from the ball extraction passage 580b of the payout device 580 is released downward through the upper ball extraction passage 600e.

[4-7d. Lower full ball path unit]
The lower full tank path unit 610 in the payout unit 560 will be described in detail mainly with reference to FIGS. 87 and 88. The lower full tank path unit 610 is mounted on the bottom plate portion 551g of the payout base 551 in the payout base unit 550 and attached to the lower part of the upper full ball path unit 600. The lower full ball path unit 610 guides the game ball B released downward from the upper full ball path unit 600 to the door frame 3 side or to the board unit 620 side. The lower full sphere path unit 610 extends in the front-rear direction so that the front end side is lowered, and the rear end extends upward.

  The lower full tank path unit 610 has a lower normal full passage 610a, a lower full tank discharge path 610b, and a lower full ball discharge path 610c. The lower full tank base extends in the front-rear direction and is opened upward. 611, a lower full cover 612 that is attached to the upper side of the lower full base 611, a lower normal discharge passage 610a that is attached to the front end of the lower full base 611 so as to be rotatable around a front and rear axis. A discharge passage opening / closing door 613 capable of opening and closing the downstream end opening of the lower full tank discharge passage 610b, and a discharge passage opening / closing door 613 in a direction to close the downstream end openings of the lower normal discharge passage 610a and the lower full tank discharge passage 610b are attached. A closing spring 614.

  The lower full tank path unit 610 has a lower normal payout path 610a, a lower full tank payout path 610b, and a lower full ball discharge path 610c arranged in order from the left in the front view on the upper surface of the portion extending upward from the rear end. In the state, the respective upstream ends are open upward. The lower normal payout passage 610 a and the lower full tank payout passage 610 b extend forward in a state where they are aligned side by side, and are opened forward at the front end of the lower full ball path unit 610. The lower full tank discharge passage 610b extends forward in a slightly lower state than the lower normal discharge passage 610a. The lower ball extraction passage 610c extends forward along the right side surface of the lower full tank discharge passage 610b as viewed from the front, and opens to the right in the middle of the front-rear direction.

  The payout passage opening / closing door 613 is rotatably attached at a position between the front end openings of the lower normal payout passage 610a and the lower full discharge passage 610b. The discharge passage opening / closing door 613 is urged clockwise by a closing spring 614, and in a normal state, the front end opening (downstream end) of each of the lower normal discharge passage 610a and the lower full discharge passage 610b. The opening is closed. The payout passage opening / closing door 613 includes an operation protrusion 613a protruding forward. The operating projection 613a is formed in a short arc shape centered on the turning center of the payout passage opening / closing door 613, and the front end surface approaches the end in the counterclockwise direction. It is inclined to protrude forward. The operating protrusion 613a is formed so as to come into contact with the door opening / closing contact portion 150f of the foul cover unit 150 in the door frame 3 when the door frame 3 is closed with respect to the main body frame 4.

  The lower full tank path unit 610 is assembled in the payout unit 560, and a lower normal payout path 610a, a lower full tank payout path 610b, and a lower ball discharge path 610c, which are open upward at the upper end of the rear part, respectively, It is located directly below the downstream end of the upper normal discharge passage 600c, the upper full tank discharge passage 600d, and the upper ball discharge passage 600e of the sphere path unit 600. Thereby, the game ball B released downward from the upper normal payout passage 600c flows through the lower normal payout passage 610a, and the game ball B released downward from the upper full payout passage 600d is lower lower full payout passage 610b. And the game ball B released downward from the upper ball extraction passage 600e flows through the lower ball extraction passage 610c.

  In addition, the lower full tank path unit 610 is assembled in the pachinko machine 1, and the front ends (downstream ends) of the lower normal discharge passage 610 a and the lower full discharge passage 610 b pass through the foul cover unit 150 in the door frame 3. It opens immediately after the ball passage 150a and the full ball receiving port 150b. In addition, the downstream end of the lower ball extraction passage 610c is opened to face the ball extraction guide portion 627 that opens to the left in the base unit 620b of the substrate unit 620.

  In a normal state (the state in which the door frame 3 is closed with respect to the main body frame 4), the lower full tank path unit 610 has the operating protrusion 613a of the payout passage opening / closing door 613 to be in contact with the door opening / closing of the foul cover unit 150. By abutting against the portion 150f, it rotates counterclockwise against the biasing force of the closing spring 614. As a result, the respective downstream end openings of the lower normal discharge passage 610a and the lower full tank discharge passage 610b are opened, and communicated with the through ball passage 150a and the full tank reception port 150b of the foul cover unit 150. It is in a state.

  On the other hand, when the door frame 3 is opened with respect to the main body frame 4, the operating protrusion 613 a of the payout passage opening / closing door 613 is separated from the door opening / closing contact portion 150 f of the foul cover unit 150, and the payout passage opening / closing door 613. Is rotated clockwise by the biasing force of the closing spring 614, and the respective downstream end openings of the lower normal discharge passage 610a and the lower full discharge passage 610b are closed. In this state, the game balls B in the lower normal payout passage 610a and the lower full tank payout passage 610b cannot move forward from the respective front end openings. Thereby, even if the door frame 3 is opened with respect to the main body frame 4, the game ball B does not spill from the lower normal payout passage 610a and the lower full tank discharge passage 610b.

[4-7e. Flow of game balls in payout unit]
Next, the flow of the game ball B in the payout unit 560 will be described in detail mainly with reference to FIG. The payout unit 560 is attached to the rear surface of the payout base 551 when assembled in the main body frame 4. In a normal state, the ball pulling lever 593 of the payout device 580 is positioned at the lower end, and the ball pulling passage 580b branched from the payout passage 580a is closed at the branch portion. Further, in the lower full ball path unit 610, the payout passage opening / closing door 613 is open.

  In the ball tank 552 opened upward, from the game hall island facility where the pachinko machine 1 is installed, for example, a predetermined number of balls are detected based on the detection of the ball breakage by the ball breakage detection sensor 574 of the ball guidance unit 570. A game ball B is supplied. The game balls B supplied / stored in the ball tank 552 are sent into the payout passage 580a of the payout device 580 through the guide passage 570a of the ball guide unit 570 while being aligned in a line by the tank rail 553. In a state in which the payout motor 584 is not rotating, the game ball B cannot move (flow down) downstream from the payout blade 589, and a plurality of game balls B stays upstream from the payout blade 589. It becomes.

  Then, the game ball B in the guide passage 570a of the ball guiding unit 570 presses the movable piece member 573, and the ball-cut detecting sensor 574 detects the movable piece member 573. Thereby, it can be seen that the game ball B is stored in at least the passage between the movable piece member 573 and the payout blade 589.

  In this state, when the payout vane 589 is rotated in the clockwise direction in the rear view by the payout motor 584, the game ball B accommodated in the ball accommodating portion 589b moves in the clockwise direction in the rear view, and the payout vane in the payout passage 580a. It is discharged downstream of 589. Then, the game ball B released from the payout vane 589 (the ball housing portion 589b) is detected by the payout detection sensor 591 and then sent to the upper payout ball receiving passage 600a of the upper full ball path unit 600.

  In a normal state, the game ball B sent to the upper payout ball receiving passage 600a of the upper full ball path unit 600 is disposed directly below the upper payout ball receiving passage 600a through the upper ball storage passage 600b. It flows down to the upper normal payout passage 600c. Then, the game ball B flowing down to the upper normal payout passage 600c passes through the lower normal payout passage 610a of the lower full ball path unit 610 and the through ball passage 150a of the foul cover unit 150 of the door frame 3, and the dish unit 200. Is discharged into the upper plate 201 from the upper plate ball supply port 211a of the plate unit base 211.

  When many game balls B are paid out from the payout device 580 and the inside of the upper plate 201 is filled with the game balls B, the game ball B cannot be discharged forward from the upper plate ball supply port 211a. The game ball B paid out from 580 becomes accumulated in the lower normal payout passage 610a of the lower full ball path unit 610, and when the game ball B is further paid out, the lower side of the lower normal payout passage 610a and the upstream side. It also stays in the upper normal payout passage 600c of the upper full sphere path unit 600 in communication. Then, when the game ball B is paid out while the upper normal payout passage 600c is filled with the game balls B, the upper normal payout passage 600c enters the upper ball storage passage 600b communicating with the upstream side of the upper normal payout passage 600c. As the game ball B begins to stay, the game ball B starts to flow down to the upper full tank payout passage 600d adjacent to the upper normal payout passage 600c.

  Then, the game ball B that has flowed down to the upper full tank payout passage 600d side passes through the lower full tank payout passage 610b of the lower full ball pass unit 610, and fills up the full ball receiving port 150b in the foul cover unit 150 of the door frame 3. Can be received. Thereafter, the game ball B received by the full ball receiving port 150b is discharged into the lower plate 202 through the storage passage 150e, the ball discharge port 150d, and the lower plate ball supply port 211c of the plate unit base 211. Thereby, when the game ball B is further paid out in a state where the upper plate 201 is full of the game balls B, the game ball B can be automatically paid out to the lower plate 202.

  If the game ball B is further paid out in a state where the lower plate 202 is filled with the game balls B and the game ball B cannot be discharged forward from the lower plate ball supply port 211c, the lower plate The game ball B stays and is stored in the storage passage 150e of the foul cover unit 150 on the upstream side of the ball supply port 211c. When a certain number of game balls B are stored in the storage passage 150e, the movable piece 153 is moved and detected by the full tank detection sensor 154, and the upper plate 201 and the lower plate 202 are filled with the game balls B ( The player is informed that the tank is full, and the payout motor 584 of the payout device 580 is temporarily stopped until the full tank detection sensor 154 enters a non-detection state.

  When the game ball B stored in the ball tank 552 is discharged from the pachinko machine 1 during maintenance or replacement of the pachinko machine 1, the ball pulling lever 593 of the payout device 580 is moved upward from the position of the descending end. Slide to the raised end position. After that, the lower end side of the ball removal movable piece 592 is pushed by the game ball B and rotates in the clockwise direction when viewed from the back, and the ball removal movable piece 592 is connected to the main body side guide wall 581a and the rear lid side guide wall 582a. It will be in the state pushed out to the outside of ball extraction passage 580b. Thus, the game ball B can enter the ball extraction passage 580b branched from the payout passage 580a, and the upstream game ball B is released downward through the ball extraction passage 580b.

  At this time, since the game ball B flowing down comes into contact with the main body side guide wall 581a and the rear lid side guide wall 582a more strongly than the ball removal movable piece 592 at the part of the ball removal movable piece 592, the ball removal movable piece 592 Is hard to break.

  The game ball B released downward from the ball extraction passage 580b of the payout device 580 passes through the upper ball extraction passage 600e of the upper full ball passage unit 600 and the lower ball extraction passage 610c of the lower full ball passage unit 610. And then discharged from the downstream end opening of the lower ball extraction passage 610c to the ball extraction guide portion 627 of the substrate unit 620, and then through the discharge ball receiving portion 628 and the ball discharge port 629 to the rear outside (game hall). To the island facility side).

[4-8. Substrate unit]
The board unit 620 in the main body frame 4 will be described in detail with reference mainly to FIGS. FIG. 93A is a perspective view of the main body frame substrate unit viewed from the front, and FIG. 93B is a perspective view of the substrate unit viewed from the rear. FIG. 94 is a perspective view of the substrate unit as viewed from the lower back. FIG. 95 is an exploded perspective view of the substrate unit disassembled for each main structure and viewed from the front, and FIG. 96 is an exploded perspective view of the substrate unit disassembled for each main structure and viewed from the rear. FIG. 97 is an enlarged side sectional view showing the lower part of the pachinko machine cut at the center in the left-right direction. The substrate unit 620 is attached to the lower part of the rear surface of the main body frame base unit 500.

  The board unit 620 includes a speaker unit 620a attached below the game board mounting portion 501c on the rear surface of the body frame base 501 in the body frame base unit 500, and a body frame so as to cover a part of the speaker unit 620a from the rear. A base unit 620b attached to the rear surface of the base 501, a power supply unit 620c attached to the rear side of the base unit 620b, a payout control unit 620d attached to the rear side of the power supply unit 620c, and a payout control unit 620d And an interface unit 620e attached to the rear surface of the speaker unit 620a so as to partially cover from behind.

  The speaker unit 620a has a speaker cover 621 attached below the game board mounting portion 501c on the rear surface of the main body frame base 501 in the main body frame base unit 500, and a front side in the vicinity of the left end in front view on the rear surface of the speaker cover 621. A main body frame speaker 622 and a container-like speaker box 623 which is attached to the rear side of the speaker cover 621 so as to cover the rear side of the main body frame speaker 622 and is opened forward. .

  The speaker cover 621 extends in the left-right direction, penetrates forward and backward in the vicinity of the left end when viewed from the front, and includes a circular speaker mounting portion 621a configured by a plurality of slits extending vertically, and the front surface of the speaker mounting portion 621a. The front concave portion 621b that is recessed so as to bulge from the rear to the front on the right side of the view, and protrudes downward from the lower surface of the spatial front concave portion 621b and extends in the left-right direction toward obliquely downward and rearward A connecting portion 621c that is open.

  A body frame speaker 622 is attached to the speaker attachment portion 621a of the speaker cover 621 from the rear side toward the front. Further, the connection portion 621 c of the speaker cover 621 is inclined at an angle of 45 degrees so that the lower end coincides with the upper end of the connection cylinder portion 43 a of the curtain plate rear member 43 in the outer frame lower assembly 40 of the outer frame 2. . The body frame speaker 622 is a cone-type speaker that mainly outputs bass sounds.

  The speaker box 623 is formed in a container shape that is open forward, and the rear part of the main body frame speaker 622 protrudes most backward, and as it goes to the right in the front view, it goes backward in a staircase shape. The protrusion is formed so as to be small. As a result, a sufficient space behind the right side of the front center of the speaker box 623 can be secured, and the base unit 620b, the power supply unit 620c, and the like can be arranged. The speaker box 623 is formed so as to cover (close) the entire rear surface of the speaker cover 621 excluding the connection portion 621c.

  The speaker unit 620 a forms a part of an enclosure 624 that encloses sound output from the main body speaker 622 with the speaker cover 621 and the speaker box 623. The enclosure 624 is formed with a space front recess 621b that bulges forward to the right of the speaker mounting portion 621a in the speaker cover 621, so that the speaker box 623 protrudes rearward as it goes to the right. Even if it is formed in a staircase shape so as to reduce the amount, a space on the right side of the main body frame speaker 622 is sufficiently wide.

  When the main body frame 4 is closed with respect to the outer frame 2, the speaker unit 620 a is connected to the connection cylinder portion 43 a so that the connection portion 621 c of the speaker cover 621 sandwiches the seal member 48, and the rear of the main body frame speaker 622. And the curtain plate interior space 40a of the outer frame 2 communicate with each other. Accordingly, a wide space enclosure 624 can be formed on the rear side of the main body frame speaker 622 by the speaker cover 621, the speaker box 623, the front panel member 42, and the rear panel member 43. Can be output (radiated) forward from the opening 42a of the curtain front member 42.

  More specifically, as described above, in the speaker unit 620a, the space behind the main body frame speaker 622 (a part of the enclosure 624) is extended to the right in the front view with a relatively wide depth, and the connection portion 621c and Since the communication is made to the outer frame lower assembly 40 side through the connection cylinder portion 43a, the outer frame lower assembly 40 is not particularly attenuated in the sound output backward from the main body frame speaker 622 without attenuating the bass range. In addition to being transmitted to the side, the transmitted low sound range can be resonated and amplified by passing through the two port members 47 and radiated forward from the opening 42 a of the curtain plate front member 42.

  At this time, the sound radiated forward from the opening 42a of the curtain plate front member 42 is radiated in a state in which the phase is reversed. The sound radiated from the 200 speaker openings 211b resonates so as to be amplified, so that a large sound with a heavy bass sound can be output even if the diameter of the main body frame speaker 622 is small.

  That is, in this embodiment, the enclosure 624 of the main body frame speaker 622 is a bass-reflex type, and a player can hear a heavy bass. Thereby, the sound output from the front surface of the main body frame speaker 622 and radiated from the speaker opening 211b of the dish unit 200, and the sound output from the rear surface of the main body frame speaker 622 and radiated from the grill member 46 of the outer frame 2 By this, the player can listen to a sound having a rich bass.

  In the speaker unit 620a, a through hole 621d penetrating in the front-rear direction is formed in the speaker cover 621 at a position between the lower portion of the speaker mounting portion 621a and the space front recessed portion 621b, and the speaker box 623. In addition, a through cylinder 623a is formed which communicates with the through hole 621d and extends in a cylindrical shape and penetrates in the front and rear direction. In the state assembled to the speaker unit 620a, the through-hole 621d and the through-tube 623a communicate with each other and are independent of the enclosure 624. A connection cable 503 is inserted through the through hole 621d and the through cylinder 623a.

  The base unit 620b of the board unit 620 includes a front base 625 that is attached to the rear surface of the main body frame base 501 so as to cover a part of the speaker box 623 from the rear, and a rear power supply unit that is attached to the rear side of the front base 625. And a rear base 626 to which 620c is attached.

  The base unit 620b is formed by cooperation of the front base 625 and the rear base 626. The base unit 620b receives the game ball B released from the lower ball passage 610c of the lower full ball path unit 610 and receives a front view. A ball extraction guiding portion 627 that guides to the right, and a discharge ball receiving portion that opens upward on the right side of the front view on the downstream side of the ball extraction guiding portion 627 and receives the game ball B discharged downward from the game board 5. 628, and a ball discharge port 629 for discharging the game ball B that has passed through the ball removal guiding portion 627 and the discharge ball receiving portion 628 downward.

  The ball extraction guiding portion 627 has an upstream end opened leftward at an upper portion of the left side surface in a front view, and a downstream end opened to the left end side of the discharge ball receiving portion 628. The ball extraction guide portion 627 faces the downstream end opening of the lower full ball path unit 610 so that the upstream end opening coincides with the downstream end opening of the lower full ball path unit 610 in the assembled state of the main body frame 4. The game ball B released from the ball extraction passage 610c can be received and guided to the discharge ball receiving unit 628.

  The discharge ball receiving portion 628 is opened upward and extends long to the left and right. The bottom surface of the discharge ball receiving portion 628 is continuous so that the left end in front view is continuous with the bottom surface of the ball extraction guide portion 627 and is inclined so as to become lower toward the right.

  The base unit 620b guides the game ball B extracted from the ball tank 552 and the game ball B discharged from the game board 5 to the right in the front view by the ball extraction guide unit 627 and the discharge ball receiving unit 628, and then Since it discharges | emits below from the discharge port 629, it can make it easy to ensure the space of the left side rather than the center of the left-right direction in front view. Thereby, the space of the enclosure 624 of the speaker unit 620a can be widened, and the player can hear a sound having a richer sound than the conventional pachinko machine.

  The power supply unit 620c of the board unit 620 includes a power supply board 630 attached to the rear side of the rear base 626 of the base unit 620b and a power supply board cover attached to the rear base 626 so as to cover the rear side of the power supply board 630. 631.

  The payout control unit 620d includes a box-like payout control board box 632 that is detachably attached to the rear side of the power supply board cover 631 in the power supply unit 620c, and a payout control board 633 (see FIG. 97). The payout control board 633 controls the payout motor 584 of the payout device 580 in response to a pressing operation of the ball lending button 224 of the ball lending operation unit 220 in the dish unit 200 or a payout command from the main control board of the game board 5 or the like. Thus, the instructed number of game balls B are to be paid out to the player side (upper plate 201 or lower plate 202).

An outer frame unlocking lever 656 that protrudes forward from the upper position and slides downward to move the outer frame collar 653 downward.

  When the locking unit 650 is assembled to the main body frame 4, a plurality of (three) door frame flanges 652, a transmission cylinder 654, and an outer frame unlocking lever 656 are forward of the front surface of the main body frame base 501. It protrudes. The transmission cylinder 654 protrudes forward through the cylinder insertion opening 501f of the main body frame base 501 and closes the door frame 3 with respect to the main body frame 4, so that the front end rotates the cylinder lock 130 of the door frame 3. The rotation of the key engaged with the transmission member 133 and inserted into the keyhole 132 is transmitted and rotated.

  In the locking unit 650, a plurality (three) of door frame cages 652 are engaged with the hook members 116 of the door frame reinforcing unit 110 in the door frame base unit 100 of the door frame 3, and a plurality (two) of outer frames. The frame hook 653 is locked to the upper hook member 24 and the lower hook member 25 of the outer frame right assembly 20 in the outer frame 2.

  When the locking unit 650 is assembled in the pachinko machine 1 and a key corresponding to the key hole 132 of the cylinder lock 130 is inserted and rotated in the counterclockwise direction when viewed from the front, a plurality of the locking units 650 are connected via the transmission cylinder 654. The door frame collar 652 moves upward, and the door frame 3 is unlocked with respect to the main body frame 4. On the other hand, when the key is rotated in the clockwise direction when viewed from the front, the plurality of outer frame hooks 653 are moved downward via the transmission cylinder 654, and the main body frame 4 is unlocked with respect to the outer frame 2.

[4-11. Detailed configuration at the top of the body frame]
Next, the detailed configuration of the upper part of the main body frame 4 will be described in detail mainly with reference to FIGS. 99A is a plan view of the main body frame, and FIG. 99B is a cross-sectional view taken along line BB in FIG. FIG. 100 is an enlarged view showing an upper part in an enlarged perspective view of the main body frame as viewed from the back. FIG. 101 (a) is a perspective view seen from the front upper side with the tank rail and the like assembled to the ball tank, and FIG. 101 (b) is a perspective view seen from the lower front side. FIG. 102 is an exploded perspective view of FIG. FIG. 103 is an explanatory diagram showing an area where game balls overflowing from the ball tank in the upper part of the main body frame circulate. FIG. 104 is an explanatory diagram showing the flow of game balls overflowing from the ball tank in the upper part of the main body frame. FIG. 105 is an explanatory diagram showing the flow of game balls to the detour passage in the upper part of the main body frame. FIG. 106 is an enlarged view showing the vicinity of the tank rail in a perspective view of the main body frame as viewed from the back on the hinge side.

  As described above, the main body frame 4 can be inserted into the frame of the outer frame 2, and can be attached to and detached from the outer frame 2 by the main body frame upper hinge member 510 and the main body frame lower hinge assembly 520. A frame-shaped main body frame base 501 that is rotatably mounted and capable of supporting the outer periphery of the game board 5, and an inverted L-letter shape that is mounted along the front side and the left side on the rear side of the main body frame base 501. A payout base 551, a ball tank 552 attached to the payout base 551 and extending upward in a box shape (container shape) extending left and right, and attached to the left side of the ball tank 552 and opened upward A tank rail 553 extending to the left in a groove shape, a first rail cover 554 attached to a part of the upper end of the tank rail 553, and a tab spaced apart from the first rail cover 554 to the left in front view. A second rail cover 555 attached to the upper end of the clair 553, a ball rectifying member 556 attached to the upper end of the tank rail 553 at a position between the first rail cover 554 and the second rail cover 555, a tank rail A ball stop member 557 attached to the downstream end of 553, a payout device 580 attached to the downstream side of the tank rail 553 on the rear side of the payout base 551, and for paying out the game ball B to the player side; It is equipped with.

  The spherical tank 552 is formed in a quadrilateral shape whose plan view extends in the left-right direction, and is inclined from the bottom wall 552a that is inclined so that the left side is lowered in front view, and the front wall and the rear wall of the bottom wall 552a, respectively. It has a front wall 552b and a rear wall 552c that extend upward, and a left wall 552d and a right wall 552e that extend upward from the left and right sides of the bottom wall 552a, respectively, and is formed in a container shape that is open on the upper side. Has been. In the ball tank 552, a game ball B supplied from an island facility such as a game hall in which the pachinko machine 1 is installed is stored.

  In addition, the ball tank 552 has an overflow portion 552f that is notched from above in the front wall 552b and is formed lower than the remaining outer peripheral upper end edge. The overflow portion 552f is approximately 3/4 of the length in the left-right direction of the front wall 552b from the end of the left wall 552d in the front wall 552b toward the end on the opposite side (right wall 552e side). It is formed throughout.

  The tank rail 553 has a right end side (upstream side) communicating with the inside of the ball tank 552 in a front view and a downstream side extending to one side (left side) in the left-right direction so as to be away from the ball tank 552. . The tank rail 553 has a bowl-shaped main guide portion 553a that extends from near the upstream to the downstream end at the bottom and is formed so that only one game ball B can flow in the width direction perpendicular to the flow direction of the game ball B. Have. The main guiding portion 553a is inclined so as to become lower toward the left in front view. Further, the main guide portion 553a extends to the left after extending from the right end to about 1/10 of the entire length in the left-right direction in parallel with the axis extending in the left-right direction from the right end to the left in plan view. It is formed in a crank shape extending obliquely from the right end to the position of about 4/10 of the entire length in the left-right direction so as to move backward as it goes, and extending to the left end parallel to the axis extending in the left-right direction from there. . In the main rail 553a, a portion of the tank rail 553 that extends in parallel to the axis extending in the horizontal direction from the left end to the right extends to the upper end with the same width. The upper side is closed by attaching the cover 554, the second rail cover 555, and the ball straightening member 556. Further, the tank rail 553 is formed so that the height of the flow path through which the game ball B flows is lowered toward the downstream end (left end) at the portion where the upper side is closed. Is formed at a height that allows only one to be distributed (a height slightly higher than the outer diameter of the game ball B).

  The tank rail 553 extends above the main guide portion 553a from the upstream end to a portion where the upper side is closed, and a plurality of game balls B are arranged in the width direction orthogonal to the distribution direction of the game balls B. It has a bulging portion 553b that bulges wider than the width of the guiding portion 553a and that changes in width from the upstream end toward the downstream side so as to coincide with the width of the main guiding portion 553a. Yes. By this bulging portion 553b, a plurality of game balls B that have spread in the width direction on the upstream side can be aligned so that the width direction becomes the width of one game ball B as it goes downstream. Further, the bulging portion 553b is formed so that the width direction becomes narrower from the upper end side toward the lower main guiding portion 553a. For this reason, the tank rail 553 can align the plurality of game balls B flowing through the bulging portion 553b so that the width direction is in a line as it goes downstream and downward.

  The bulging portion 553b of the tank rail 553 has a center of curvature arranged on the inner side, and is formed in a three-dimensionally curved shape. Since the center of curvature of the bulging portion 553b is disposed above the main guiding portion 553a, the tank rail 553 has a slight gap between the main guiding portion 553a and the bulging portion 553b. Chamfered corners are formed. Further, the bulging portion 553b is formed to have a larger curvature at the downstream side than at the upstream side. For this reason, in the game ball B that circulates in the three-dimensionally curved bulge portion 553b, the direction in which the reaction force from the bulge portion 553b side acts depends on the position of the bulge portion 553b that abuts. It will change to various directions, and generation | occurrence | production of a spherical spot can be suppressed in the bulging part 553b. More specifically, when the bulging portion 553b is formed in a shape that extends uniformly, a reaction force always acts in a certain direction from the inner surface of the bulging portion 553b on the game ball B that circulates in the bulging portion 553b. As a result, the reaction force is less likely to disperse, so that the internal game ball B is always pushed in a certain direction, making it difficult for the game ball B to escape and causing ball clogging (ball clumps) to occur. On the other hand, since the bulging portion 553b has a three-dimensional curved surface, the direction of the reaction force acting from the inner surface of the bulging portion 553b varies depending on the position of the game ball B. Since the direction in which the plurality of game balls B to be pushed is dispersed is dispersed, the pushed game balls B can be easily escaped, and ball clogging (ball balls) can be made difficult to occur.

  The tank rail 553 is made of a transparent material, and is configured so that the inside can be seen from the outside. As a result, even if a ball clog (ball clog) occurs in the tank rail 553, the state of the game ball B in the tank rail 553 can be seen from the outside, so that the place where the ball is clogged can be quickly identified. can do. Therefore, since the ball clogging in the tank rail 553 can be quickly eliminated, the interruption of the game due to the occurrence of the ball clogging can be shortened as much as possible, and the player's interest in the game by the interruption of the game can be enhanced. The decrease can be suppressed. Further, since the tank rail 553 is made transparent, the rear side (the back unit 3000) of the game board 5 attached to the main body frame 4 through the tank rail 553 can be visually recognized from the rear. When a malfunction occurs in the movable effect unit or the like, the state of the transmission mechanism such as the drive motor, the gear, the belt, etc. can be confirmed with the game board 5 still attached to the main body frame 4. The effect of this can be achieved.

  The main body frame 4 is provided on the front side of the ball tank 552, extends in the front-rear direction, and has the same side as the downstream side of the tank rail 553 in the left-right direction (left side in front view) outside the left side wall 552d of the ball tank 552. In order to return the game ball B overflowing forward from the ball tank 552 to the ball tank 552, the rear end side is inclined so that the front end side is the same height as the overflow portion 552f and the front end side is higher. Extending from the outside of the left side wall 552d of the ball tank 552 at the rear end of the overflow surface portion 501m to the upper side of the bulging portion 553b where the upper side of the tank rail 553 is open and the rear end side being low And is inclined so that the side (left side) away from the ball tank 552 in the left-right direction becomes lower, and the overflow surface from the ball tank 552 A bypass passage 552g to induce some of the game balls B full of 501m, and a.

  Further, the main body frame 4 is provided on the opposite side to the left side wall 552d of the ball tank 552 in the left and right outer sides of the bypass passage 552g, and the space in the left and right direction is wider than the outer diameter of the game ball, A discharge portion 551j whose height is lower than the portion of the tank rail 553 whose upper side is open, and a side opposite the bypass passage 552g with the discharge portion 551j in between, are provided at a position lower than the overflow surface portion 501m. The external terminal plate 558 having a plurality of wire connection terminals 558a that can be connected to the electrical wiring from the rear, and the upper side of the plurality of wire connection terminals 558a (external terminal plate 558), the upper surface being the overflow surface portion And a terminal cover 551k extending horizontally at a position higher than 501m.

  The overflow surface portion 501 m is formed on the main body frame base 501. The overflow surface portion 501m has a flat plate shape from the lower side to the rear side from the upper side of the rear surface of the base body 501a, which is formed in a rectangular shape whose front view extends vertically, from a position lower by 2 to 4 times the outer diameter of the game ball B. It extends to. The overflow surface portion 501m is formed so that the length in the left-right direction is about 1/3 of the length in the left-right direction of the main body frame base 501, and the left end in front view is from the left end of the main body frame base 501. It is located to the right of 1/3 of the total length in the left-right direction. The overflow surface portion 501m is formed such that the height from the front end to the rear end is about ½ of the outer diameter of the game ball B. The overflow surface portion 501m is formed with a gap of about twice the outer diameter of the game ball B between the outer frame upper member 30 and the main body frame 4 closed with respect to the outer frame 2. .

  The main body frame base 501 is disposed on the left and right sides of the overflow surface portion 501m, and has a flat plate-like left step portion 501n and right step portion 501o that extend substantially horizontally at the same height as the front end of the overflow surface portion 501m. The upper ends of the left step portion 501n and the right step portion 501o are both higher in the left and right direction than the left step portion 501n and the right step portion 501o, and extend in a strip shape in the front-rear direction. And a plurality of ribs 501p arranged at intervals narrower than the diameter. The left step 501n is formed so that the length in the left-right direction is shorter than the length in the front-rear direction. Further, the left step portion 501n is inclined with respect to the horizontal plane so that the rear end right corner is slightly lower in front view. The right step portion 501o is formed such that the length in the left-right direction is longer than the length in the front-rear direction. Further, the right step portion 501o is inclined with respect to the horizontal plane such that the left corner of the rear end is slightly lower in front view.

  The plurality of ribs 501p of the main body frame base 501 are formed higher than the upper surface of the terminal cover 551k, and the lower surface of the outer frame upper member 30 of the outer frame 2 when the main body frame 4 is closed with respect to the outer frame 2. Is formed at a height that is narrower than the outer diameter of the game ball B.

  When the main body frame base 501 is assembled to the main body frame 4, the right end of the overflow surface portion 501 m coincides with the right end of the overflow portion 552 f in the ball tank 552 in the front view, and the overflow surface portion 501 m The left end of the bypass passage 552g and the left end of the bypass passage 552g coincide with each other in the left-right direction, and the right end of the right step portion 501o coincides with the right side wall 552e of the ball tank 552.

  The bypass passage 552g is formed integrally with the ball tank 552. Hereinafter, a container-like region surrounded by the bottom wall 552a, the front wall 552b, the rear wall 552c, the left side wall 552d, and the right side wall 552e is also simply referred to as a spherical tank 552. The bypass passage 552g extends in a flat plate shape from the outside of the left side wall 552d of the ball tank 552 to the left, and the passage surface 552h is inclined so that the front end is the same height as the overflow portion 552f and the rear end is low. And a weir portion extending upward from the end of the passage surface 552h opposite to the left side wall 552d to the same height as the left side wall 552d. The rear end side of the passage surface 552h of the bypass passage 552g has a left end side (weir portion 552i side) of the rear end side in the front view extending rearward to the same position as the rear wall 552c of the ball tank 552, and the left end side It extends diagonally so as to move forward as it goes to the right end side. The passage surface 552h of the bypass passage 552g may have a horizontal inclination in the horizontal direction.

  The detour passage 552g is assembled in the main body frame 4 so that the rear end thereof is along the front end side of the portion extending obliquely with respect to the left-right direction in the tank rail 553 extending in a crank shape in the left-right direction. It extends. That is, the rear end of the bypass passage 552g extends obliquely with respect to the left-right direction. Thereby, the game ball B guided rearward by the bypass passage 552g changes from the rear end that is inclined so that the circulation direction is perpendicular to the oblique rear end. The rear end of the bypass passage 552g that extends obliquely extends substantially parallel to the portion of the tank rail 553 that extends diagonally (the direction in which the game balls B flow in the tank rail 553). Therefore, since the game ball B is released from the rear end of the bypass passage 552g in a direction substantially perpendicular to the flow direction (width direction) of the tank rail 553, the bypass passage 552g is wide in the tank rail 553. Can receive a game ball B from Further, since the game ball B is supplied from the bypass passage 552g into the tank rail 553 in a direction substantially perpendicular (perpendicular direction) to the distribution direction of the game ball B, the tank rail by the game ball B from the bypass passage 552g. It is possible to make it difficult for ball clogging in 553 to occur.

  The bypass passage 552g extends obliquely with respect to the left-right direction so that the rear end moves rearward toward the downstream side of the tank rail 553, so that the game ball B moves from the bypass passage 552g to the tank rail 553 side. When released, the rear end that extends obliquely allows the game ball B to be discharged to the upstream side, which is wider than the downstream side where the width of the tank rail 553 is narrow, , It is possible to suppress the occurrence of ball scum in the tank rail 553.

  Further, the part for guiding the game ball B through the bypass passage 552g corresponds to the outside of the left part of the left side wall 552d of the ball tank 552 and the left part of the rear wall 552c in front view in the tank rail 553. A game ball B that lies under the guide surface portion 552j of the ball tank 552 (the ceiling side of the opening portion 552k) flows from the inside of the ball tank 552 to this portion. For this reason, in the portion of the tank rail 553 that is behind the bypass passage 552g, the height of the plurality of game balls B stacked in the vertical direction is the height of the ceiling of the opening 552k (the wall of the tank rail 553). (Height) is not exceeded. Accordingly, a space (vacant space) in which the game balls B can be stacked upward can be secured on the tank rail 553 on the downstream side of the ball tank 552, that is, on the rear end side of the bypass passage 552g. Thus, the game ball B guided rearward can be reliably received by the tank rail 553, and the game ball B is not spilled rearward from the tank rail 553.

  The ball tank 552 is a flat plate that extends to the right from a position slightly lower than the overflow portion 552f in the left side wall 552d on the inner side surrounded by the front wall 552b, the rear wall 552c, and the left side wall 552d. Guide surface portion 552j. The guide surface portion 552j extends in the front-rear direction from the front wall 552b to the rear wall 552c. In addition, the guide surface portion 552j has a right end in front view that is approximately 1/3 of the total length in the left-right direction of the front wall 552b from the left end of the front wall 552b and from the left end of the front wall 552b to the left-right direction of the front wall 552b. After extending obliquely rearward from the front wall 552b to a position near about 1/2 of the total length in the front-rear direction of the left side wall 552d at about 1/9 of the total length, it extends to the vicinity of the rear wall 552c in parallel with the left side wall 552d, From there, it is formed in a shape extending in parallel with the rear wall 552c from the left end of the rear wall 552c to about 1/3 of the total length in the left-right direction of the rear wall 552c with a constant width.

  The spherical tank 552 has a straight line connecting the right end side of the guide surface portion 552j formed in the shape as described above and the end of the right end side on the front wall 552b side and the end on the rear wall 552c side in plan view. The region surrounded by and has an opening 552k formed so as to penetrate in the vertical direction. Further, the spherical tank 552 has a flat flange extending in the left-right direction and in the vertical direction on the same plane as the front wall 552b on the front end side of the right side wall 552e and the front end side of the weir portion 552i of the bypass passage 552g. Part 552l. In the ball tank 552, the height of the upper end edge of the front wall 552b excluding the overflow portion 552f and the upper end edges of the two flange portions 552l are the upper end edges (the main body frame base 501) of the left side wall 552d and the rear wall 552c. The upper surface of the left step portion 501n and the right step portion 501o is higher than the upper step).

  When the ball tank 552 and the tank rail 553 are assembled with each other, the upstream end (right end in a front view) of the tank rail 553 is connected to the opening 552k of the ball tank 552. In addition, the portion of the tank rail 553 that extends in the left-right direction in a crank shape in a plan view and the portion that extends straight in the left-right direction on the left side of the tank rail 553 are located behind the ball tank 552 (projecting). )doing. The rear end side of the bypass passage 552g on the left side of the left side wall 552d of the ball tank 552 is located at the front end of a portion extending obliquely of the tank rail 553 that extends in the left-right direction in a crank shape.

  The discharge portion 551j is formed on the upper surface of the payout base 551. The discharge part 551j is assembled in the main body frame 4 so that it is lowered stepwise from the height lower than the bypass passage 552g to the same height as the bottom wall 552a of the ball tank 552. After extending rearward from the rear side of the flange portion 552l on the left side when viewed from the front to the tank rail 553, the position is higher along the tank rail 553 to the left than the upper end of the tank rail 553 (the center in the left-right direction of the second rail cover 555). It extends to the rear and then extends backward.

  The external terminal plate 558 is attached in a state where a plurality of wire connection terminals 558a are arranged in the left-right direction on the rear surface. The electric wire connection terminal 558a is a one-touch terminal that can be grasped at the tip of the electric wiring by opening the grip portion by operating the lever. The external terminal plate 558 is disposed in front of a portion where the upper side of the tank rail 553 is closed by the first rail cover 554, the second rail cover 555, and the ball rectifying member 556 in a state assembled to the main body frame 4. . A terminal cover 551k that covers the upper side of the external terminal plate 558 (the plurality of wire connection terminals 558a) is formed on the upper surface of the payout base 551. The upper surface of the terminal cover 551k is formed at substantially the same height as the upper end of the flange portion 552l in the ball tank 552.

  Next, the effect of the upper part of the main body frame 4 in the pachinko machine 1 will be described. First, the overflow surface portion 501m, the left step portion 501n, the right step portion 501o, and the detour passage 552g are arranged such that the rear end side of the overflow surface portion 501m and the detour passage 552g is lowered as shown by the white arrows in FIG. The left step 501n and the right step 501o are inclined such that the rear right corner is lowered. Further, the bottom wall 552a of the ball tank 552 and the tank rail 553 (main guiding portion 553a) are inclined so that the left end side is lowered in front view. Further, the guide surface portion 552j of the ball tank 552 is inclined such that the right end side in the direction opposite to the bottom wall 552a is lowered.

  Then, when the amount of game balls B stored in the ball tank 552 is increased by being supplied from the island facility, first, over the upper overflow edge 552f having the lowest height among the outer peripheral upper edges. The game ball B overflowing from the ball tank 552 can be discharged to the overflow surface portion 501m and discharged from the ball tank 552 to the front overflow surface portion 501m. The game ball B can be returned to the ball tank 552 by the inclination of the overflow surface portion 501m (see FIG. 104). Accordingly, since it is possible to prevent further increase in the game balls B in the ball tank 552, it is possible to suppress the game balls B from strongly pressing each other (increase in ball pressure) in the ball tank 552. In the ball tank 552, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of clogging (so-called ball grind) due to the engagement of the game balls B with each other.

  Further, since the bypass passage 552g is provided, as shown in FIG. 105, the game ball B overflowing from the ball tank 552 to the overflow surface portion 501m can be sent to the tank rail 553 via the bypass passage 552g. As a result, it is possible to prevent the game ball B accumulated in the overflow surface portion 501m from strongly acting backward on the game ball B in the ball tank 552, and the game ball B is blocked in the ball tank 552. Can be prevented. Further, since the game ball B can be sent to the tank rail 553 through the bypass passage 552g, the game ball B overflowing from the ball tank 552 and the overflow surface portion 501m is spilled on the outside (rear side) of the main body frame 4. Can be prevented. Therefore, it is possible to avoid a problem that the game ball B spilled outside the main body frame 4 is sandwiched between the outer frame 2 and the main body frame 4 so that the main body frame 4 cannot be opened and closed.

  Further, a part of the game ball B overflowing from the ball tank 552 to the overflow surface portion 501m can be guided to the downstream side of the tank rail 553 by the bypass passage 552g, and along the left side away from the ball tank 552. Since the game ball B can be sent to the tank rail 553 from a certain position, the flow (pressure) by the game ball B sent to the tank rail 553 by the detour passage 552g can be directed to the downstream side of the tank rail 553. It is possible to prevent the game balls B from being clogged by preventing the game balls B from strongly pressing each other in the tank rail 553.

  Further, since the height of the remaining upper edge other than the overflow portion 552f is higher than that of the overflow portion 552f at the outer peripheral upper edge of the ball tank 552, the ball between the ball tank 552 and the bypass passage 552g. The upper end edge of the left side wall 552d on one side in the left-right direction in the tank 552 is higher than the overflow portion 552f, that is, the rear end of the overflow surface portion 501m. Thereby, the game ball B flowing from the overflow surface portion 501m to the bypass passage 552g after overflowing the overflow portion 552f from the ball tank 552 and flowing into the overflow surface portion 501m is left on one side of the ball tank 552. By being blocked by the wall 552d, it is possible to prevent the detour path 552g from returning to the ball tank 552 side, and the game ball B on the detour path 552g side presses the game ball B in the ball tank 552 to It is possible to prevent the game ball B from being clogged in the tank 552.

  Furthermore, as described above, the upper edge of the left side wall 552d between the ball tank 552 and the bypass passage 552g is from the rear end of the overflow surface portion 501m (passage surface 552h on which the game ball B rolls in the bypass passage 552g). Therefore, the game ball B can be prevented from overflowing from the ball tank 552 to the bypass passage 552g without passing through the overflow surface portion 501m. Thereby, since the inflow of the game ball B from the side (the ball tank 552) to the bypass passage 552g can be prevented, the flow of the game ball B in the bypass passage 552g is made to flow backward from the overflow surface portion 501m on the front end side. The flow can be in a constant direction toward the tank rail 553 on the end side, and the pressure of the game ball B guided from the bypass passage 552g to the tank rail 553 can be in a constant direction. Therefore, in the tank rail 553, the direction of the pressure applied to the game ball B can be prevented, so that the game balls B can be prevented from being pressed against each other, and the game ball B can be blocked. Can be prevented.

  In addition, since the main guide portion 553a extending to the downstream end is provided at the bottom of the tank rail 553, the game balls B in the tank rail 553 reach the main guide portion 553a, so that they are aligned in the left-right direction. Since they are in an aligned state, the game balls B in the tank rail 553 can be aligned, and the game balls B can be reliably guided to the payout device 580 on the downstream side. In addition, in the portion where the upper side of the tank rail 553 is open, a wide bulging portion 553b in which a plurality of game balls B can be arranged is provided, so that the game released from the rear end of the bypass passage 552g The sphere B can be reliably received, and the above-described effects can be reliably achieved.

  Further, the bulging portion 553b of the tank rail 553 extends from the upstream end to a portion where the upper side is closed, and the width direction becomes narrower from the upstream end toward the downstream side, and the width of the main guiding portion 553a is increased. Since they are changed so as to match, the plurality of game balls B can be aligned in a row in the width direction as they go downstream in the bulging portion 553b. In addition, since the portion of the tank rail 553 whose upper side is closed is formed so that the height of the flow path through which the game ball B flows is lowered toward the downstream end, the upstream side (the ball tank 552 side) The plurality of game balls B stacked in a plurality of stages in the height direction in FIG. 1 are circulated downstream through the portion where the upper side of the tank rail 553 is closed, thereby reducing the number of stages in the height direction. Can be aligned. Therefore, the plurality of game balls B can be guided to the downstream side (the payout device 580 side) in a state of being aligned in a row by the tank rail 553.

  Furthermore, since the overflow surface portion 501m and the bypass passage 552g are provided, a certain number of game balls B can be stored in the overflow surface portion 501g and the bulging portion 553b is provided in the tank rail 553. Therefore, since the volume in the tank rail 553 can be increased, more game balls B can be stored together with the ball tank 552.

  In addition, an external terminal plate 558 having a plurality of wire connection terminals 558a to which electrical wiring is connected and a plurality of wire connection terminals 558a (on the opposite side of the ball tank 552 with the bypass passage 552g and the discharge portion 551j in between. Since the terminal cover 551k that covers the upper side of the external terminal plate 558) is provided, the wire connection terminal 558a and the terminal cover 551k can be distant from the ball tank 552 to which the game ball B is supplied from the island facility. Therefore, even if the game ball B supplied from the island facility bounces or is vigorously supplied in the ball tank 552 or the overflow surface portion 501m, it can be difficult to reach (contact) the wire connection terminal 558a. The game ball B does not cause a problem such as short-circuiting or disconnection of the electrical wiring.

  Further, since the plurality of wire connection terminals 558a are directed rearward and the upper surface of the terminal cover 551k is higher than the overflow surface portion 501m, the game ball B supplied from the island facility to the ball tank 552 is stored in the ball tank 552. As described above, it is possible to make it difficult to get on the upper surface of the terminal cover 551k even if it bounces at the overflow surface portion 501m, and to make it difficult to fall from the rear side even if the game ball B gets on the upper surface of the terminal cover 551k. It is possible to easily avoid the occurrence of such a problem.

  Further, the game ball B returned to the guide surface portion 552j of the ball tank 552 from the overflow surface portion 501m is sent to the upstream side (rightward in FIG. 104) of the ball tank 552 due to the inclination of the guide surface portion 552j. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the game ball B on the guide surface portion 552j from being pressed in the downstream direction against the game ball B in the ball tank 552, and the game ball B is clogged in the ball tank 552. This can be prevented.

  Also, the game ball B supplied from the island facility to the ball tank 552 jumps at the ball tank 552 and the overflow surface portion 501m and rides on the left step portion 501n and the right step portion 501o on the left and right sides of the overflow surface portion 501m. However, as shown in FIG. 104, the game ball B can be guided to the overflow surface portion 501m and the detour passage 552g due to the inclination thereof, and the game ball B spills outside the main body frame 4 to cause a problem. Can be prevented.

  In addition, when the game ball B flows from the ball tank 552 to the tank rail 553 side, the game ball B passes through the lower side of the guide surface portion 552j. Therefore, the game ball is stacked on the upper side of the tank rail 553 by the guide surface portion 552j. The amount (height) of B can be regulated so as not to be higher than the lower surface of the guide surface portion 552j. Accordingly, on the downstream side of the ball tank 552 (guide surface portion 552j) in the tank rail 553, that is, on the rear end side of the bypass passage 552g, a space (vacant space) in which the game balls B can be stacked upward can be secured. The game ball B guided by the bypass passage 552g can be reliably received.

  Furthermore, since the plurality of wire connection terminals 558a and the terminal cover 551k are arranged in front of the portion where the upper side of the tank rail 553 is closed, even if the game ball B falls backward from the terminal cover 551k, The game ball B is not received by the tank rail 553, and it is possible to prevent the game ball B from affecting the game ball B in the tank rail 553 and causing a malfunction.

A plurality of engaging step portions 1114. The positioning hole 1113 is for positioning with the panel holder 1120 by inserting the protruding pin 1124 of the panel holder 1120. The engagement step portion 1114 is detachably attached to the panel holder 1120 by being engaged with the engagement claws 1125 and the engagement pieces 1126 of the panel holder 1120.

  As shown in FIG. 121A and the like, the panel plate 1110 has a large opening 1112 for attaching the center accessory 2500 offset from the center to the upper right in front view. Thereby, the panel board 1110 has a frame shape, and in a front view, the width orthogonal to the distribution direction of the game ball B (the frame-shaped circumferential direction) has a plurality of games on the left side and the lower side from the center. The balls B are wide enough to be arranged, and the upper and right sides are narrow enough that a plurality of game balls B cannot be arranged. In the present embodiment, in the panel plate 1110, as shown in FIG. 121 (a), a portion having a large width is used as a decorative pattern forming region 1101, and a portion having a small width is enclosed. A decoration pattern non-formation region 1102 is set.

  This panel board 1110 is provided with a decoration pattern 1150 in which a predetermined pattern is formed by a plurality of linear grooves in a decoration pattern forming area 1101 on the rear surface. The decorative pattern 1150 of the present embodiment is a pattern such as a crack in the glass. The decorative pattern 1150 has a V-shaped cross section. The decoration pattern 1150 can be seen from the player side ahead even when the panel decoration LED 1130a of the panel decoration substrate 1130 is not emitting light, and decorates the game area 5a. Further, when the panel decoration LED 1130a of the panel decoration substrate 1130 emits light and the light enters the panel board 1110, the panel board 1110 causes the decoration pattern 1150 formed in a pattern such as a crack to emit light. Can do.

  The decorative pattern 1150 of the panel board 1110 includes a radiating portion 1151 that mainly reflects light emitted from the peripheral surface of the panel board 1110 to the inside, and light emitted from the peripheral surface of the panel board 1110 to the inside. And a radiation light guide 1152 that reflects and guides light along a linear shape. The radiation light guiding unit 1152 satisfies at least one of the depth of the groove and the long circumferential length in the cross section as compared with the radiation unit 1151. The radiation light guide unit 1152 is formed so as to connect (or intersect) the plurality of radiation units 1151, and diffusely reflects the light irradiated from the peripheral surface of the panel plate 1110 within the panel plate 1110. The light can be guided in the extending direction of the groove. That is, the radiation light guide unit 1152 plays a role of guiding light from one of the plurality of radiation units 1151 connected to itself to the other. Within a limited range, the overall photosensitivity of the decorative pattern 1150 of the panel board 1110 (the ratio of the amount of light emitted (reflected) forward) is increased. More specifically, the radiation light guide unit 1152 is normally connected from the panel decoration LED 1130a of the upper left panel decoration board 1131 and the panel decoration LED 1130a of the lower left panel decoration board 1132 as shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 121 (a). Light is guided to the radiating portion 1151 arranged outside the light guide region 1103 to cause the radiating portion 1151 to emit light, and the overall photosensitivity of the decorative pattern 1150 is increased.

  As a result, the radiation light guide unit 1152 has more radiation parts 1151 than the radiation part 1151 of the decoration pattern 1150 formed in a part where light from the panel decoration LED 1130a is difficult to reach (usually a part outside the light guide region 1103). Light can reach and the radiating portion 1151 can be decorated with a sufficient amount of light. Accordingly, when the panel decoration LED 1130a of the panel decoration substrate 1130 is caused to emit light, the light incident on the panel plate 1110 is reflected forward from the radiating portion 1151 and the radiating light guiding portion 1152, and has a pattern such as a crack. The decoration pattern 1150 thus formed can be decorated with light emission with uniform brightness over substantially the whole.

  The panel board 1110 has a plurality of obstacle nails N planted in a predetermined gauge arrangement. The plurality of obstacle nails N has a specific obstacle nail N1 that has an important role for the game. As shown in FIG. 122, the specific obstacle nail N1 is disposed in the vicinity of the warp inlet 2501, the general winning opening 2001, the first start opening 2002, and the gate portion 2003. Since these specific obstacle nails N1 are distorted or bent when the game ball B comes into contact with each other, the probability that the game ball B will be received into the warp entrance 2501, the general winning port 2001, or the like changes. This is a subject that is always subject to maintenance so that there is no distortion or the like.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 121 (b) and FIG. 122, a predetermined range (for example, a radius of 1.5 mm to 3 mm) is defined as a decoration prohibition area 1104 with the specific obstacle nail N1 as the center. The radiating portion 1151 and the radiating light guide portion 1152 of the decoration pattern 1150 are not formed inside. Thereby, when the pachinko machine 1 is maintained, the specific obstacle nail N1 can be easily seen, and it can be easily confirmed whether or not the specific obstacle nail N1 is distorted. Further, since the grooves of the radiating portion 1151 and the radiating light guide portion 1152 are not formed in the decoration prohibited area 1140 around the specific obstacle nail N1, it is necessary to adjust the specific obstacle nail N1 during maintenance. When the obstacle nail N1 is struck, the force is transmitted from the specific obstacle nail N1 to the radiating portion 1151 and the radiation light guiding portion 1152, and the panel plate 1110 can be prevented from being cracked or cracked.

  Moreover, the obstacle nail N planted in the part overlapping the decoration pattern 1150 among the obstacle nails N excluding the specific obstacle nail N1 is implanted in the panel plate 1110 as shown in FIG. 121 (c). The projected tip protrudes into the groove (radiation light guide 1152 in the figure) constituting the decorative pattern 1150. Therefore, when the panel decoration LED 1130a of the panel decoration substrate 1130 is caused to emit light and light is incident on the inside of the panel plate 1110, light is irradiated from the groove of the decoration pattern 1150 to the tip of the obstacle nail N protruding into the groove. Then, the light is reflected at the inclined tip of the obstacle nail N, and the tip of the obstacle nail N can be shined. Thereby, the obstacle nail N can be made to shine, and the player can show the player a light emitting effect that has not been available in conventional pachinko machines. In the game area 5a, the decorative pattern 1150 may be intentionally overlapped with the obstacle nail N planted in a special part, and thereby, together with the light emitting decoration of the decorative pattern 1150. The special nail N in the special part can be illuminated, and the player's interest can be strongly attracted to the special nail N in the special part, and the game ball B can be driven into the special nail N. The operation can be performed.

  In addition, the decorative pattern 1150 of the panel board 1110 is such that a part of the radiating portion 1151 and the radiating light guiding portion 1152 formed in the linear groove is in the back unit 3000 described later, as shown in FIG. It is formed so as to be along the inner outer edge facing the center side of the front front decorative board 3603 front view game area 5a of the front front effect unit 3600. Thus, when the decoration pattern 1150 (the radiating portion 1151 and the radiating light guide portion 1152) is caused to emit light by the panel decoration LED 1130a of the panel decorative substrate 1130, the outer edge inside the back decorative substrate 3603 is viewed from the player side. Can be decorated with luminescence. In addition, this allows the outer edge of the front decorative board 3603 to be illuminated and decorated in front view, so that the front decorative board 3603 can be made relatively dark and difficult to see. The appearance in 5a can be improved.

  In the present embodiment, the decorative pattern 1150 including linear grooves is formed on the panel plate 1110 by cutting. The decorative pattern 1150 is formed before the formation of the planting hole for planting the obstacle nail N. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the cutting waste discharged by the formation of the decoration pattern 1150 from clogging the planting hole, and the obstacle nail N can be planted in a good state.

  The panel holder 1120 of the gaming panel 1100 has a size that includes the panel plate 1110 and has a substantially rectangular outer shape, and is thicker than the panel plate 1110 (about 20 mm in this example).

In other words, the V winning opening door 2415 can distribute the game balls B received in the big winning opening 2005 so as to be received in either the first receiving port 2007 or the second receiving port 2008.

  In the state where the attacker unit 2400 is attached to the front surface of the panel plate 1110, the gate passage 2421 is positioned below the opening on the downstream side of the right guide passage 2510 in the center accessory 2500 described later (slightly to the left of directly below). In addition, the gate portion 2003, the second start opening 2004, and the big winning opening 2005 are positioned above the stage 2503 of the center accessory 2500. Further, the general winning opening 2001 is located at substantially the same height as the first start opening 2002. Further, in the state of being attached to the panel plate 1110, there are a plurality of obstacle nails N between the lower end of the right guide passage 2510 of the center accessory 2500 and the upper end (gate portion 2003).

  Next, the flow of the game ball B in the attacker unit 2400 will be described. Since the gate unit 2003 of the attacker unit 2400 is located above the stage 2503 of the center accessory 2500 in the assembled state on the game board 5, even if the game ball B is released from the stage 2503, the gate unit 2003 Never go through. Therefore, only the game ball B that has flowed down the right side (right guide path 2510) of the center accessory 2500 may pass through the gate portion 2003. Downstream of the right guide passage 2510, a left side passage 2422, a gate passage 2421, and a right side passage 2423 are opened side by side from the left. You will enter the crab.

  Then, the game ball B that has passed through the gate portion 2003 is discharged from the gate passage 2421 to the attacker passage 2424 through the front of the second start opening door 2411 that closes the second start opening 2004 immediately below it. At this time, if the second starter door 2411 rotates forward and is in the open position, the game ball B that has passed through the gate portion 2003 comes into contact with the back surface of the second starter door 2411 and The second starting port 2004 is guided to the second starting port 2004 and received. The second start door 2411 is in accordance with the normal lottery result (the normal lottery result is “normal hit” when the game ball B passes through the gate part 2003 (the game ball B is detected by the gate sensor 2401). The game ball B itself having the lottery “normal hit” is set to the second start port 2004 by appropriately setting the lottery time of the normal lottery result, the opening / closing timing of the second start port door 2411, and the like. Can also be accepted.

  The game ball B received in the second start port 2004 is detected by the second start port sensor 2402 and then discharged downward (on the board holder 1200) on the rear side of the game panel 1100.

  The gate passage 2421 communicates with the downstream end of the right side passage 2423 on the right side of the portion between the gate portion 2003 and the second start port 2004. Therefore, the gate passage 2421 is connected to the right side passage 2423 on the right side of the gate portion 2003. The entered game ball B is allowed to flow to the front side of the second starting port 2004 without passing through the gate part 2003. Therefore, in a state where the second start port 2411 has moved to the open position and the second start port 2004 is ready to be received, the game ball B that has passed through the gate portion 2003 or the game that has circulated through the right side passage 2423. The sphere B can be received into the second starting port 2004 with a very high probability. The gate passage 2421 is connected to the left side passage 2422 on the left side of the gate portion 2003 because the left side of the portion between the gate portion 2003 and the second start port 2004 communicates with the middle of the left side passage 2422. There is a possibility that the game ball B that has entered may be received in the second starting port 2004.

  When the game ball that has flowed down the right side of the center accessory 2500 is not received by the second start port 2004, the game ball is discharged from the lower end of the gate passage 2421 or the left side passage 2422 to the attacker passage 2424.

  The game ball B discharged to the attacker passage 2424 is guided to the left along the inclination, and is released downward from the left end of the discharge shelf 2425 through the large winning opening door 2413 closing the large winning opening 2005. Is done. At this time, if the big prize opening door 2413 closing the big prize opening 2005 is retreated and the big prize opening 2005 is opened, the game ball B released into the attacker passage 2424 has a high probability. Accepted in mouth 2005. The game ball B received in the big winning opening 2005 is detected by the big winning opening sensor 2403 and then sent to the receiving space 2006, and either the first receiving port 2007 or the second receiving port 2008 by the V winning port door 2415. It is distributed to crab.

  The game ball B received in the first receiving port 2007 or the second receiving port 2008 is detected by the first receiving port sensor 2404 or the second receiving port sensor 2405, and is moved downward (substrate) It is discharged onto the holder 1200).

  There is a possibility that the game ball B released downward from the release shelf 2425 is received by one general winning opening 2001 arranged below. The game ball B received in the general winning opening 2001 of the attacker unit 2400 is guided to the rear side of the panel board 1110 and then transferred to the guide path of the front front effect unit 3600 of the back unit 3000. On the other hand, the game balls that have not been accepted into the general winning opening 2001 pass through the out opening 1008 at the lower end of the gaming area 5a and are discharged downward (on the board holder 1200) on the rear side of the gaming panel 1100.

[5-8e. Center character]
The center accessory 2500 of the front unit 2000 is arranged in the game area 5a above the start port unit 2100, the side unit 2200, etc., and is located slightly above the center of the front view.

Yes.

  Next, the operation of the back movable movable effect unit 3110 will be described. As shown in FIG. 133, the back rear movable effect unit 3110 is in the state of the retracted position in which the back rear movable decorative body 3120 is in the highest position, and the lock member 3141 is viewed from the front. In FIG. 5, the lock position is the end of rotation in the clockwise direction. In this state, the lower surface of the left slider 3122 of the back movable decorative body 3120 is in contact with the guide protrusion 3134b of the slide guide 3134, and the lock protrusion 3122a of the left slider 3122 is more than the restriction portion 3141c of the lock member 3141. Located above.

  Further, in a normal state, the detection piece of the left slider 3122 in the back rear movable decoration body 3120 is detected by the decoration body detection sensor 3154 of the back back decoration production unit 3150, and the detection piece of the slide guide 3134 is detected on the back side. This is detected by the upper slide detection sensor 3155 in the rear decoration effect unit 3150.

  In the lock member 3141 in the locked position, the main body 3141a is vertical, and the transmission protrusion 3141f protruding leftward from the base end of the main body 3141a is horizontal. In addition, the lock member 3141 has a restricting portion 3141c protruding rightward from the upper end of the main body portion 3141a, located directly below the lock protrusion 3122a of the back movable decorative body 3120, and a stopper 3141e protruding upward. Is in contact with the rotation restricting member 3144. The lock member 3141 is restricted from turning in the clockwise direction when viewed from the front, since the stopper 3141e is in contact with the turning restriction member 3144.

  Since the stopper 3141e of the lock member 3141 abuts against the rotation restricting member 3144, the rotation in the direction in which the transmission protrusion 3141f moves upward is restricted, and therefore the transmission length formed on the transmission protrusion 3141f. The transmission pin 3142a inserted into the hole 3141g does not move further upward. Accordingly, the transmission slider 3142 biased upward by the lock spring 3143 is restricted from further movement upward by the lock member 3141 at the lock position via the transmission pin 3142a.

  In this normal state, the slide guide 3134 regulates the downward movement (falling) of the back movable ornament 3120. In this state, if the slide guide 3134 moves down to some extent for some reason such as malfunction, the lock protrusion 3122a of the left slider 3122 of the back movable decorative body 3120 Since it abuts on 3141c, it is possible to restrict the downward movement (falling) of the lock member 3141 (the restricting portion 3141c). That is, in the normal state, the back-side movable decorative body 3120 is prevented from falling by the two of the slide guide 3134 and the lock member 3141.

  In this normal state, when the spiral shaft 3133 is rotated in a predetermined direction (here, a counterclockwise direction in a plan view) by the back rear drive motor 3135, the guide body 3134a screwed to the spiral shaft 3133 The slide guide 3134 moves downward. By moving the slide guide 3134 downward, the back rear movable decorative body 3120 that is in contact with the upper surface of the guide projection 3134b of the slide guide 3134 moves downward together with the slide guide 3134.

  When the lock protrusion 3122a of the back rear movable decorative body 3120 moving downward together with the slide guide 3134 comes into contact with the restricting portion 3141c of the lock member 3141, the back rear movable decorative body 3120 is moved downward. As a result of the restriction, the movement of the back movable decorative body 3120 stops and enters the standby position (see FIG. 134). In this standby position state, the detection piece of the slide guide 3134 is positioned below the slide detection sensor 3155 on the upper side of the back and back decoration effect unit 3150, and is in a non-detection state. On the other hand, the detection piece of the left slider 3122 of the back movable decorative body 3120 is still being detected by the decorative body detection sensor 3154 of the back rear decoration rendering unit 3150. Although illustration is omitted, the detection piece of the left slider 3122 is moved up and down so that the decorative movable body 3120 is detected by the decorative body detection sensor 3154 of the back rear decorative rendering unit 3150 between the retracted position and the standby position. It extends to.

  Thereafter, when the slide guide 3134 is further moved downward by the back rear drive motor 3135, the guide protrusion 3134b of the slide guide 3134 is separated from the lower surface of the left slider 3122 of the back back movable decorative body 3120, and the back back movable decorative body 3120 is moved. Only the slide guide 3134 moves downward while keeping the standby position (see FIG. 135).

  In this state, the load of the back movable decorative body 3120 acts on the restricting portion 3141c protruding to the right of the lock member 3141. Therefore, the load applied to the restricting portion 3141c causes the lock member 3141 to move to the bearing hole 3141b. It tries to rotate in the clockwise direction when viewed from the front. However, since the stopper 3141e of the lock member 3141 is in contact with the rotation restricting member 3144 from the left, the clockwise rotation is restricted, and the lock protrusion 3122a of the back movable decorative body 3120 is restricted. Does not deviate from the restricting portion 3141c.

  When the lower surface of the guide protrusion 3134b of the slide guide 3134 moving downward contacts the upper surface of the release contact portion 3142b of the transmission slider 3142 (see FIG. 135), the detection piece of the slide guide 3134 It is detected by the slide detection sensor 3155 on the lower side of the rear decoration effect unit 3150. In this state, the upper surface of the guide protrusion 3134 b of the slide guide 3134 is lower than the height of the upper end of the protective stopper 3147.

  From this state, when the slide guide 3134 is further moved downward via the spiral shaft 3133 by the back rear drive motor 3135, the guide protrusion 3134b of the slide guide 3134 presses the release contact portion 3142b of the transmission slider 3142 downward. The transmission slider 3142 slides downward against the urging force of the lock spring 3143.

  When the transmission slider 3142 slides downward, the transmission pin 3142a of the transmission slider 3142 also moves downward, so that the transmission long hole 3141g of the lock member 3141 in which the transmission pin 3142a is inserted is pressed downward by the transmission pin 3142a. The lock member 3141 rotates in the counterclockwise direction when viewed from the front centering on the bearing hole 3141b (see FIG. 136).

  When the lock member 3141 rotates counterclockwise when viewed from the front, the restricting portion 3141c with which the lock protrusion 3122a of the left slider 3122 of the back movable decorative body 3120 abuts from above is moved to the tip side (right end side). ) Moves upward and rotates to move to the left. That is, as the lock member 3141 rotates in the counterclockwise direction, the back movable decorative body 3120 rises through the lock protrusion 3122a by the rising tip side of the restriction portion 3141c, and the tip of the restriction portion 3141c. The side slides to the left on the lower surface of the lock protrusion 3122a.

  Thereafter, when the lock member 3141 further rotates counterclockwise, and the tip of the restricting portion 3141c moves to the left from the left end of the lock protrusion 3122a of the back back movable decorative body 3120, the back back movable decorative body 3120 loses support from below by the restricting portion 3141c, and the back movable decorative body 3120 falls due to the acting gravity (see FIG. 136). That is, the lock member 3141 is from the lock position where the upper surface of the restricting portion 3141c is in contact with the lower surface of the lock protrusion 3122a to the position where the tip of the restricting portion 3141c is to the left of the left end of the lock protrusion 3122a (release position). When turning in the counterclockwise direction when viewed from the front, the back movable ornament 3120, which has been restricted from being locked (locked), is unlocked, and the back movable ornament 3120 is in the standby position. Free fall from.

  In the back movable movable body 3120 that has fallen from the standby position, the lower surface of the left slider 3122 contacts the contact receiving portion 3146c of the damper 3146, and the piston rod 3146b sinks into the damper main body 3146a via the contact receiving portion 3146c. The impact of the fall of the back movable decorative body 3120 is absorbed by the spring and the viscous fluid in the damper main body 3146a. Then, before the lower surface of the left slider 3122 comes into contact with the upper surface of the protective stopper 3147, the falling of the back movable decorative body 3120 stops, and the lower slider 3122 enters the lowered position.

  When the back movable decorative body 3120 is in the lowered position, a gap is formed between the lower surface of the left slider 3122 and the upper surface of the protective stopper 3147, and the upper surface of the guide protrusion 3134b of the slide guide 3134 is It is located sufficiently below the lower surface of the slider 3122 (the upper end of the protective stopper 3147). That is, the back movable decorative body 3120 that has freely dropped from the standby position to the lowered position is configured not to contact any member other than the damper 3147.

  As a result, even if the large rear movable decorative body 3120 that extends to the left and right at substantially the same length as the full width of the effect display device 1600 is freely dropped at the same height from the top to the bottom of the effect display device 1600, the damper 3147 Other members are not in contact with each other, and other members are not damaged by a large impact. Further, even if the damper 3147 cannot sufficiently stop the back movable decorative body 3120 that has fallen freely, the damper 3147 abuts against the protective stopper 3147 while the kinetic energy is attenuated by the damper 3147. Thus, the falling of the back movable decorative body 3120 can be stopped without damaging the protective stopper 3147. Further, since the guide protrusion 3134b of the slide guide 3134 is positioned below the upper end of the protective stopper 3147, the back-back movable decorative body 3120 that has freely dropped does not come into contact with the guide protrusion 3134b, and can be moved back-and-back. Breakage of the slide guide 3134 due to the contact of the decorative body 3120 can be prevented.

  After the back movable movable body 3120 is dropped to the lowered position, the spiral guide 3133 is rotated in the opposite direction (here, the clockwise direction in plan view) by the back back drive motor 3135, and then the slide guide 3134. Rises. When the release protrusion 3134b of the slide guide 3134 pushes the release contact portion 3142b of the transmission slider 3142 downward and the transmission slider 3142 is slid downward, the slide guide 3134 is lifted, and the transmission slider 3142 is locked spring. Since it is urged upward by 3143, the transmission slider 3142 slides upward together with the slide guide 3134 (guide protrusion 3134b).

  When the transmission slider 3142 slides upward, the transmission pin 3142a moves upward. Therefore, the transmission long hole 3141g of the lock member 3141 into which the transmission pin 3142a is inserted is pressed upward by the transmission pin 3142a, and the lock member 3141 is moved. The bearing hole 3141b is rotated in the clockwise direction when viewed from the front. When the transmission slider 3142 further slides upward along with the slide guide 3134, the stopper 3141e of the lock member 3141 comes into contact with the rotation restricting member 3144, and the lock member 3141 rotates further in the clockwise direction. In addition to being restricted, sliding upward of the transmission slider 3142 is restricted. As a result, the lock member 3141 returns from the unlocked position to the locked position.

  From this state, when the slide guide 3134 is moved upward by the rear rear drive motor 3135, the upward movement of the transmission slider 3142 is restricted as described above, so that the release contact portion 3142b of the transmission slider 3142 The guide protrusion 3134b of the slide guide 3134 moves upward, and only the slide guide 3134 moves upward. Then, the guide protrusion 3134b of the slide guide 3134 moving upward comes into contact with the left slider 3122 of the back rear movable decorative body 3120 in the lowered position from below, and the back rear movable decorative body 3120 is interposed via the left slider 3122. Moves upward together with the slide guide 3134 (see FIG. 137).

  In this back movable movable effect unit 3110, after the back back movable decorative body 3120 is dropped, it is moved upward from the lowered position by the slide guide 3134 so that the back rear movable decorative body 3120 is between the standby position and the lowered position. In the state where the rear back drive motor 3135 is rotated, the back rear movable decorative body 3120 can be arbitrarily moved up and down by the slide guide 3134 by appropriately changing the rotation direction of the back back drive motor 3135 (see FIG. 137). ).

  Then, when the slide guide 3134 is moved upward by the back rear drive motor 3135 and the back back movable decorative body 3120 moving upward from the lowered position together with the slide guide 3134 moves to a height near the standby position, The lock projection 3122a of the left slider 3122 of the back movable ornament 3120 abuts on the guide portion 3141d of the lock member 3141 in the locked position from below. From this state, when the lock protrusion 3122a (backward movable decorative body 3120) is further moved upward by the slide guide 3134, the guide portion 3141d of the lock member 3141 is inclined, so that the lock protrusion 3122a of the guide portion 3141d A leftward force is applied to the contacted portion.

  Therefore, as the lock protrusion 3122a moves upward, the lock member 3141 rotates counterclockwise around the bearing hole 3141b by a leftward force acting on the guide portion 3141d. (See FIG. 138). At this time, in the lock member 3141, the transmission protrusion 3141f protruding leftward from the base end portion of the main body 3141a moves downward due to the rotation in the counterclockwise direction. The lock member 3141 is counterclockwise against the biasing force of the lock spring 3143 acting in the clockwise direction via the transmission pin 3142a of the transmission slider 3142 inserted in the transmission long hole 3141g of the portion 3141f. To turn.

  Thereafter, when the lock protrusion 3122a further moves upward, the restricting portion 3141c and the guide portion 3141d protruding to the right from the main body portion 3141a are locked by the further rotation of the lock member 3141 in the counterclockwise direction when viewed from the front. It moves to the release position on the left side of the protrusion 3122a, and the upper surface of the lock protrusion 3122a moves upward from the restricting portion 3141c. When the lock protrusion 3122a moves further upward and the lower surface of the lock protrusion 3122a moves upward from the tip of the guide portion 3141d of the lock member 3141, the contact with the guide portion 3141d is released. As a result, the lock member 3141 rotates in the clockwise direction when viewed from the front by the urging force of the lock spring 3143, and changes from the release position to the lock position. In a state in which the lock member 3141 is rotated to the lock position, the lower surface of the lock protrusion 3122a is located above the upper surface of the restricting portion 3141c.

  Then, the lock projection 3122 a (back movable decorative body 3120) is further moved upward by the slide guide 3134, and the detection piece of the slide guide 3134 is detected by the slide detection sensor 3155 on the upper side of the back decorative effect unit 3150. Then, the driving of the back rear drive motor 3135 stops, and the back back movable decorative body 3120 stops at the retracted position. That is, the back movable ornament 3120 returns to the normal state.

  As described above, when the slide guide 3134 is moved downward by the back rear drive motor 3135, the lock member 3141 is rotated from the lock position to the release position via the transmission slider 3142, and the back back movable decorative body 3120 is put on standby. It can be freely dropped from the position to the lowered position. Thereby, a large play (back and rear movable decorative body 3120) straddling the display screen of the effect display device 1600 in the left-right direction can be shown to the player as a movable effect that freely falls while blocking the display screen of the effect display device 1600. Therefore, it is possible to give a strong impact to the player, entertain the player, and generate an advantageous gaming state (for example, a “hit” game) in which the player has an advantage over the player. It can be thought that it is, and the expectation with respect to a game can be raised.

  Next, the back and back decoration effect unit 3150 of the back and back effect unit 3100 will be described in detail mainly with reference to FIGS. 139 to 141 and the like.

  The decorative body detection sensor 3154 is attached to the upper part of the front surface of the left fifth pattern substrate 3171 so that the detection piece of the back and rear movable decorative body 3120 located between the retracted position and the standby position can be detected. ing. The two slide detection sensors 3155 detect the detection piece of the slide guide 3134 when the back movable decorative body 3120 is in the retracted position, and the upper part of the front surface of the left fifth pattern substrate 3171 and the slide guide 3134. The guide protrusion 3134b is attached to the lower part of the front surface of the left fifth graphic substrate 3171 so that the detection piece of the slide guide 3134 can be detected when the guide protrusion 3134b is at a height at which the guide protrusion 3134b comes into contact with the release contact portion 3142b of the transmission slider 3142. It has been.

  The pair of fifth pattern substrates 3171 is mounted with a plurality of light guide plate LEDs 3171a arranged in the vertical direction on the rear surface. The pair of fifth pattern substrates 3171 are arranged on the front surface in the vertical direction, and a plurality of LEDs 3171b for illuminating and decorating the back rear decorative lens 3152 are mounted thereon. The left fifth substrate 3171 is mounted such that a plurality of light guide plate LEDs 3171a on the rear surface can irradiate light to the right, and a plurality of LEDs 3171b on the front surface emit light to the right. It is mounted so that it can be irradiated. In the fifth pattern substrate 3171 on the left side, the rear surface of the rear decorative lens 3152 is in contact with the front surface, and a plurality of LEDs 3171b on the front surface are rearward inward from the side surface side of the frame-shaped rear decorative lens 3152.

It is mounted so that it can irradiate light. The rear surface of the back decorative lens 3152 is in contact with the front surface of the right fifth pattern substrate 3171, and the plurality of LEDs 3171b on the front surface are inward from the side surface side of the frame-shaped back decorative lens 3152. The rear decoration lens 3152 is mounted so that light is emitted to the inside.

  In the sixth pattern substrate 3172, a plurality of light guide plate LEDs 3172a are mounted on the rear surface so as to be able to irradiate light upward, and are arranged in the left-right direction on the front surface. A plurality of LEDs 3172b capable of irradiating the light is mounted. The sixth pattern substrate 3172 can be incident on the inside of the back second light guide plate 3160 via the condenser lens 3156 when light is irradiated upward from the plurality of light guide plate LEDs 3172a on the rear surface. In the sixth pattern substrate 3172, the rear surface of the back decorative lens 3152 is in contact with the front surface, and a plurality of LEDs 3172b on the front surface are inward from the side surface side of the frame-shaped back decorative lens 3152 toward the inside. It is mounted so that light is irradiated to the inside of 3152.

  With the above configuration, the back decorative lens 3152 causes the LED 3153a of the back back upper decorative substrate 3153, the LED 3171b of the pair of fifth pattern substrates 3171, and the LED 3172b of the sixth pattern substrate 3172 to emit light.

  As shown in FIG. 140, the fifth pattern 3161 is a pattern having a guidance (message) for a player consisting of characters “Chance!” In a pattern like a sandstorm as a whole. As shown in FIG. 141, the sixth pattern 3162 is a pattern in which broken pieces of glass are scattered. The sixth pattern 3162 has fewer pieces of scattered glass than the third pattern 3211 of the back middle production unit 3200 described later.

  As shown in the drawing, the letters “Chance!” Of the fifth pattern 3161 are arranged at the center in the vertical direction, and therefore, the three at the center of the LED 3171a for the light guide plate arranged at the top and bottom of the left and right respectively. When only the light is emitted, only the characters “Chance!” Can be displayed. Alternatively, when the three light guide plate LEDs 3171a at the center in the vertical direction are turned off and the remaining light guide plate LEDs 3171a are caused to emit light, the entire display can be light-emitted in a state where the characters “Chance!” Are not visible (difficult to see). .

  It should be noted that the LEDs mounted on the back rear upper decorative board 3153, the pair of fifth picture board 3171, and the sixth picture board 3172 in the back back decoration rendering unit 3150 are all side view type full color LEDs. .

The light guide plate 3160 is arranged in parallel with the surface. This can suppress an increase in the size in the front-rear direction in the back and back decoration production unit 3150, and the fifth and sixth patterns 3161 and 3162 and the back and back decoration lens 3152 of the back second light guide plate 3160 are illuminated. Can be made.

  Further, the back and back decoration rendering unit 3150 of the present embodiment arranges a plurality of light guide plate LEDs 3172a for emitting and displaying the sixth pattern 3162 of the back second light guide plate 3160 only on the lower side of the back second light guide plate 3160. The number of the light guide plate LEDs 3171a for emitting and displaying the fifth pattern 3161 is smaller, but a condensing lens 3156 is disposed between the light guide plate LED 3172a and the back second light guide plate 3160. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the light spreading from the LED 3172a for the light guide plate from being collected and diffused unnecessarily, and even if the number is small, the sixth pattern 3162 can be displayed with light emission at the optimum brightness. Can do.

  With the above configuration, the back center decorative lens 3202 causes the LED 3203a of the back center left decorative substrate 3203, the LED 3221b of the third pattern substrate 3221, and the LED 3222b of the pair of fourth pattern substrates 3222 to emit light. Can be reflected forward by the inclined portion of the edge protruding to the inside of the frame. Thereby, it is possible to show the player a light-emitting effect in which the window glass is broken and the edges of the glass fragments remaining on the window frame are shining.

  The back first light guide plate 3210 includes a third pattern 3211 (see FIG. 143) formed by an infinite number of concave and convex third reflecting portions that reflect only light from the left and right directions forward, and light from the top and bottom directions. 4th pattern 3212 (refer to FIG. 144) formed by innumerable fourth reflecting portions having a concave-convex shape that reflects only forward. That is, when the back effect unit 3200 causes the light guide plate LED 3221a of the third pattern substrate 3221 to emit light, the third pattern 3211 can be caused to emit light, and the light guide plate LED 3222a of the fourth pattern substrate 3222 emits light. If it does, the 4th pattern 3212 can be light-emitted and displayed.

  On the back first light guide plate 3210, the innumerable third reflecting portions forming the third pattern 3211 and the infinite number of fourth reflecting portions forming the fourth pattern 3212 are finely formed. The light guide plate LED 3221a of the third pattern substrate 3221 and the light guide plate LED 3222a of the fourth pattern substrate 3222 appear transparent when not illuminated, and the back of the rear back and rear rendering unit 3100. The effect image displayed on the rear movable decorative body 3120 and the effect display device 1600 can be visually recognized in a good state.

  As shown in FIG. 143, the third pattern 3211 is a pattern that is split into a plurality of pieces after radial and concentric cracks have entered the glass. Compared to the sixth pattern 3162 of the back second light guide plate 3160 in the back decorative effect production unit 3150, the third pattern 3211 is drawn with many pieces of scattered glass. As shown in FIG. 144, the fourth pattern 3212 is a pattern in which a plurality of light streaks extend obliquely upward and obliquely downward.

  As shown in FIG. 144, the fourth pattern 3212 is formed so that the diagonally extending stripes correspond to the respective light guide plate LEDs 3222a mounted on the upper and lower fourth pattern substrates 3222. That is, when one light guide plate LED 3222a emits light, the center of the back first light guide plate 3210 in the vertical direction starts from the upper or lower side of the back first light guide plate 3210 closest to the light emitting plate LED 3222a. Two light streaks (V-shaped light streaks) extending obliquely so as to be separated from each other toward the head are decorated with light emission.

  Since the fourth pattern 3212 is farther from the light guide plate LED 3222a as it goes to the center in the vertical direction of the back first light guide plate 3210, the brightness of the V-shaped light streaks is that of the back first light guide plate 3210. It becomes darker toward the center in the vertical direction. As a result, when the fourth pattern 3212 is viewed from the front (player side), the light stripes appear to extend rearward toward the center in the vertical direction of the back first light guide plate 3210, and the light is three-dimensional. It is possible to make an illusion that the light is emitted from the back, and to enjoy the light emission effect by the back first light guide plate 3210.

  Note that the LEDs mounted on the back center left decorative substrate 3203, the third pattern substrate 3221, and the pair of fourth pattern substrates 3222 in the back center effect unit 3200 are all side view type full color LEDs.

  As shown in the drawing, the back middle effect unit 3200 of the present embodiment includes a back center left decorative substrate 3203, a third pattern substrate 3221, and a pair of fourth pattern substrates 3222 that guide each plate surface back and forth. It is arranged in parallel with the surface of the optical plate 3210. Thereby, an increase in the dimension in the front-rear direction in the back middle production unit 3200 can be suppressed, and the third pattern 3211 and the fourth pattern 3212 of the back first light guide plate 3210, the back inner decorative lens 3202, and the like are decorated with light emission. be able to.

  In the back middle production unit 3200 of the present embodiment, a plurality of light guide plate LEDs 3221a for emitting and displaying the third pattern 3211 of the back first light guide plate 3210 are arranged only on the right side of the back first light guide plate 3210. The number of LEDs is smaller than that of the plurality of light guide plate LEDs 3222a for displaying and displaying the fourth picture 3212. A condensing lens 3204 is disposed between the light guide plate LEDs 3221a and the back first light guide plate 3210. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the light spreading from the LED 3221a for the light guide plate from being condensed and diffused unnecessarily, and even if the number is small, the third picture 3211 can be displayed with light emission at the optimum brightness. it can.

Further, the back right movable decorative body decorative substrate 3323 includes a plurality of peripheral LEDs 3323b that irradiate light in a direction along the surface of the substrate on the front surface and the rear surface.

  The back right movable decorative body 3320 can be illuminated and decorated so that the central portion of the crack pattern of the decorative body 3321 shines by appropriately emitting the central LED 3323a of the back right movable decorative body decorative substrate 3323. By emitting the peripheral LED 3323b of the decorative body decoration substrate 3323, the outer peripheral edge and the crack pattern of the decorative body main body 3321 can be illuminated and decorated.

  The back right movable mechanism 3330 of the back right movable effect unit 3310 extends up and down and is attached to the upper right part of the front surface of the back middle effect unit 3200, and about 3/4 of the total height from the bottom of the unit base 3331. A bearing having a cylindrical bearing pin 3332a that is mounted so as to be movable in the vertical direction at a height portion and that projects in the front-rear direction and is rotatably inserted into the shaft hole 3324 of the back right movable decorative body 3320. And a slider 3332.

  Further, the back right movable mechanism 3330 has a back right drive motor 3333 attached to the upper portion of the unit base 3331 with the rotation axis directed in the front-rear direction, and a spur gear shape attached to the rotation shaft of the back right drive motor 3333. Motor gear 3334, a transmission gear 3335a projecting in the front-rear direction, and a detection piece (not shown) projecting in the front-rear direction are engaged with the motor gear 3334 and rotatably attached to the unit base 3331. And a spur gear-like link drive gear 3335.

  Further, the back right movable mechanism 3330 is attached to the unit base 3331 so as to be rotatable around an axis extending in the front-rear direction at a position obliquely lower right of the link drive gear 3335 when viewed from the front, and in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis. A transmission link gear 3336 having a transmission arm 3336a that extends and abuts against a transmission projection 3335a of the link drive gear 3335, and a transmission gear portion 3336b that extends in an arc shape around the rotation axis, and a unit A spur gear-shaped first gear is mounted on the base 3331 below the rotation axis of the transmission link gear 3336 so as to be rotatable around a shaft extending in the front-rear direction and meshes with the transmission gear portion 3336b of the transmission link gear 3336. A spur gear that rotates integrally with the first gear portion 3337a and the first gear portion 3337a and has a larger diameter than the first gear portion 3337a. The second gear portion 3337B, and to have two-stage gear 3337 that has, and a.

  Further, the back right movable mechanism 3330 is attached to the unit base 3331 so as to be slidable in the vertical direction, and is formed on the rack main body 3338a and the rack main body 3338a, and the second gear portion 3337b of the two-stage gear 3337. A rack gear portion 3338b that linearly extends in the vertical direction and a columnar movable mechanism side link pin 3338c that protrudes in the front-rear direction at the lower portion of the rack body 3338a, A link arm that extends vertically and whose upper end side is rotatably inserted with the decorative body side link pin 3325 of the back right movable decorative body 3320 and whose lower end side is rotatably inserted with the movable mechanism side link pin 3338c of the slide rack 3338. 3339.

  Further, the back right movable mechanism 3330 is attached to the unit base 3331, and can be moved back right by detecting a shock absorbing rubber 3340 that can come into contact with the back right movable decorative body 3320 and a detection piece of the link drive gear 3335. Two movable position detection sensors (not shown) for detecting the position of the decorative body 3320 are provided.

  Next, the operation of the back right movable effect unit 3310 by the back right movable mechanism 3330 will be described. As shown in FIG. 147, the back right movable effect unit 3310 has the bearing slider 3332 and the slide rack 3338 of the back right movable mechanism 3330 at the rising end and the bearing pin 3332 a of the bearing slider 3332 in the normal state. The back right movable decorative body 3320 to which the proximal end side is rotatably attached is inclined so that the distal end side is located higher than the proximal end side (initial state). Further, in this state, the back right movable decorative body 3320 is such that the center of the decorative body side link pin 3325 is located slightly above the center of the shaft hole 3324, and the detection piece of the link drive gear 3335 is One eye is detected by a movable position detection sensor.

  In this normal state, the transmission projection 3335a of the link drive gear 3335 is located slightly above the center of rotation of the link drive gear 3335 on the right side of the front view, and the transmission of the transmission link gear 3336 is transmitted to the transmission projection 3335a. The arm 3336a is in contact with the right side. More specifically, the rotation center point of the transmission link gear 3336, the transmission projection 3335a, and the transmission arm with respect to the straight line connecting the rotation center point of the link drive gear 3335 and the contact point between the transmission projection 3335a and the transmission arm 3336a. The straight line connecting the contact point with 3336a is orthogonal. As a result, the force acting on the transmission projection 3335a from the transmission arm 3336a passes through the center of rotation of the link drive gear 3335, so that the link drive gear 3335 rotates even if the force acts on the transmission projection 3335a from the transmission arm 3336a. No, the transmission link gear 3336 does not rotate in the direction in which the transmission arm 3336a moves to the left in the front view (counterclockwise direction in the front view). That is, in a normal state, the link drive gear 3335 restricts (locks) rotation of the transmission link gear 3336 in the counterclockwise direction when viewed from the front.

  Incidentally, since the bearing pin 3332a is inserted into the shaft hole 3324 on the base end side of the back right movable decorative body 3320, the load of the back right movable decorative body 3320 acts on the bearing slider 3332 via the bearing pin 3332a. doing. In a normal state, the bearing slider 3332 is positioned at the rising end, and therefore, a force is applied to the bearing slider 3332 to move downward due to the load of the back right movable decorative body 3320.

  On the other hand, the back right movable decorative body 3320 has the shaft hole 3324 (bearing pin 3332a) due to the weight of the back right movable decorative body 3320 because the bearing pin 3332a of the bearing slider 3332 is inserted into the shaft hole 3324 on the proximal end side. ), The force to rotate in the direction in which the tip side moves downward (counterclockwise direction when viewed from the front) is acting. A force to rotate counterclockwise due to the weight of the back right movable decorative body 3320 acts on the movable mechanism side link pin 3338c from the decorative body side link pin 3325 via the link arm 3339. That is, a force for moving the slide rack 3338 downward via the link arm 3339 is applied by a force for the back right movable decorative body 3320 to rotate counterclockwise by its own weight.

  The force to move the slide rack 3338 downward is transmitted to the two-stage gear 3337 by the rack gear section 3338b of the slide rack 3338 via the second gear section 3337b meshing with the rack gear section 3338b. The gear 3337 acts to rotate in the clockwise direction when viewed from the front. The second gear 3337 has a force acting to rotate the second gear 3337 in the clockwise direction because the first gear portion 3337a meshes with the transmission gear portion 3336b of the transmission link gear 3336. The transmission link gear 3336 acts to rotate counterclockwise via the transmission gear portion 3336b. That is, the transmission link gear 3336 attempts to rotate counterclockwise by the force that the back right movable decorative body 3320 attempts to rotate counterclockwise due to its own weight.

  In the normal state, the transmission link gear 3336 meshes with the transmission gear portion 3336b of the transmission link gear 3336 because the rotation in the counterclockwise direction is locked by the link driving gear 3335 as described above. The two-stage gear 3337 is not rotated, and the slide rack 3338 is not moved downward by the rack gear section 3338b meshing with the second gear section 3337b of the two-stage gear 3337.

  Thus, since the downward movement of the slide rack 3338 is restricted, the entire link arm 3339 having the lower end attached to the slide rack 3338 does not move downward. Therefore, the back right movable decorative body 3320 tries to rotate in the counterclockwise direction so that the tip side moves downward about the upper end side (the decorative body side link pin 3325) of the link arm 3339. Since the bearing slider 3332 attached to the base end side of the movable decorative body 3320 is located at the rising end, the counterclockwise rotation about the decorative body side link pin 3325 is restricted, and the back right The movable decorative body 3320 is maintained in an oblique state in which the distal end side is located above the proximal end side.

  In this normal state, when the link drive gear 3335 is rotated clockwise by the back right drive motor 3333 via the motor gear 3334, the transmission protrusion 3335a of the link drive gear 3335 is moved to the left and downward. It will revolve in the direction of movement. The transmission protrusion 3335a revolves in the clockwise direction and changes its position, so that the transmission link gear 3336 in which a counterclockwise force is applied by the weight of the back right movable decorative body 3320 is transmitted. As the projection 3335a slides relative to the transmission arm 3336a, the portion where the transmission arm 3336a and the transmission projection 3335a are in contact with each other is changed to rotate counterclockwise (see FIG. 148). ).

  When the transmission link gear 3336 rotates counterclockwise when viewed from the front, the slide rack 3338 moves downward via the two-stage gear 3337, and the link arm 3339 moves downward together with the slide rack 3338. Will be. Since the load of the back right movable decorative body 3320 is supported by the bearing slider 3332 attached to the base end side, when the link arm 3339 moves downward, the bearing slider 3332 also moves via the back right movable decorative body 3320. It will move downward together.

  As a result, the back right movable decorative body 3320 moves downward from the normal state (initial state) while the tip side remains high until the bearing slider 3332 reaches the descending end. . That is, in the state where the back right movable decorative body 3320 moves downward from the initial state and the bearing slider 3332 reaches the descending end (first state), the distal end side is higher than the proximal end side as in the initial state. It is in an oblique state.

  Then, after the bearing slider 3332 reaches the descending end, when the link drive gear 3335 is further rotated clockwise by the back right drive motor 3333, the slide rack is connected via the transmission link gear 3336 and the two-stage gear 3337. 3338 will move further downward. By the downward movement of the slide rack 3338, the decorative body side link pin 3325 of the back right movable decorative body 3320 is pulled downward via the link arm 3339, and the back right movable decorative body 3320 is pivoted on the base end side shaft. Around the hole 3324, the tip end side is rotated in the counterclockwise direction so as to move downward (see FIG. 149).

  When the link drive gear 3335 is continuously rotated clockwise by the back right drive motor 3333, the back right movable decorative body 3320 further rotates counterclockwise around the shaft hole 3324, and the lower surface thereof is By abutting against the shock absorbing rubber 3340 attached to the base 3331, further rotation in the counterclockwise direction is restricted, and an oblique state in which the distal end side is lower than the proximal end side (second In the state), the back right movable decorative body 3320 stops. At this time, the detection piece of the link drive gear 3335 is detected by the second movable position detection sensor, and the drive of the back right drive motor 3333 is stopped based on the detection by the second movable position detection sensor.

  After the back right movable decorative body 3320 is in the second state, the back right drive motor 3333 rotates the link drive gear 3335 in a counterclockwise direction in front view that is the opposite direction to the above. When the transmission protrusion 3335a revolves in the counterclockwise direction together with the link drive gear 3335, the transmission link gear 3336 rotates in the clockwise direction by the transmission arm 3336a in contact with the transmission protrusion 3335a, and the two-stage gear 3337 Thus, the slide rack 3338 moves upward.

  When the slide rack 3338 moves upward from the descending end, the back right movable decorative body 3320 is pressed upward by the link arm 3339, and the back right movable decorative body 3320 moves upward together with the bearing slider 3332. It becomes. That is, the back right movable decorative body 3320 moves upward with the tip side kept low until the bearing slider 3332 reaches the rising end. Accordingly, the back right movable decorative body 3320 moves upward together with the bearing slider 3332 from the second state, and in the state where the bearing slider 3332 reaches the rising end (third state), similarly to the second state, It is in an oblique state where the distal end side is lower than the proximal end side (see FIG. 150).

  When the link drive gear 3335 is further rotated counterclockwise by the back right drive motor 3333, the transmission link gear 3336 is further rotated clockwise and the slide rack 3338 is moved upward via the two-stage gear 3337. The decorative arm side link pin 3325 of the back right movable decorative body 3320 is pressed upward by the link arm 3339 attached to the slide rack 3338, and the back right movable decorative body 3320 passes through the shaft hole 3324 on the base end side. It will rotate in the clockwise direction around the center.

  After that, when the detection piece of the link drive gear 3335 rotated counterclockwise by the back right drive motor 3333 is detected by the first movable position detection sensor, the back right drive motor 3333 is driven. The rotation of the link drive gear 3335 is stopped by being stopped. In this state, the bearing slider 3332 and the slide rack 3338 of the back right movable mechanism 3330 are located at the rising end, and the back right movable decorative body 3320 whose base end side is rotatably attached to the bearing pin 3332a of the bearing slider 3332 is provided. The tip end side is inclined so as to be located above the base end side. That is, the back right movable decorative body 3320 is returned to the normal state (initial state).

  In a normal state, when the back right drive motor 3333 rotates in the opposite direction (clockwise in the front view), the link drive gear 3335 rotates in the counterclockwise direction, whereby the transmission protrusion 3335a. Revolves so that the transmission projection 3335a and the transmission arm 3336a come out of contact with each other, and the restriction of the rotation of the transmission link gear 3336 in the counterclockwise direction by the transmission projection 3335a is immediately released. The As a result, the back right movable decorative body 3320 changes (moves) at a stretch from the initial state to the second state.

  When the back right movable decorative body 3320 is in the second state, as shown in FIG. 149, the transmission arm 3336a of the transmission link gear 3336 is located within the revolution range of the transmission projection 3335a in the link driving gear 3335. When the link drive gear 3335 is further rotated counterclockwise by the right drive motor 3333, the revolving transmission protrusion 3335a comes into contact with the transmission arm 3336a from below. When the transmission projection 3335a further revolves counterclockwise, the transmission projection 3335a rotates the transmission link gear 3336 in the clockwise direction via the transmission arm 3336a. The movable decorative body 3320 returns from the second state to the initial state through the third state.

  In this way, by driving the back right drive motor 3333, the back right movable decorative body 3320 is rotated about the shaft hole 3324 on the base end side, thereby swinging the material imitated by the back right movable decorative body 3320. It is possible to show the player a movable performance as if it was lowered. Further, the movement of moving the back right movable decorative body 3320 from the initial state to the second state through the first state is different from the movement of returning from the second state to the initial state through the third state. It is possible to show the player a plurality of movements and to make the player hard to get bored.

  Further, when the back right movable decorative body 3320 moves from the initial state to the second state in which the swing is swung down, the base end side (shaft hole 3324) having the rotation center is moved downward by the bearing slider 3332. Therefore, compared to the case where the base end side is not moved downward, the back right movable decorative body 3320 can appear more on the front side of the effect display device 1600, and the back right movable decorative body 3320 is made conspicuous. be able to. Further, when the back right movable decorative body 3320 is moved to the position of the initial state, the base end side where the rotational center is located is moved upward by the bearing slider 3332, so the rotational center of the back right movable decorative body 3320 is moved. Moves to the upper side of the effect display device 1600 in the front view, so that the back right movable decorative body 3320 in the initial state is less likely to block the effect image displayed on the effect display device 1600, and a display area that can be visually recognized well. It can be made wider, and the player can more enjoy the effect image.

  Next, the front right decorative body unit 3350 of the back right effect unit 3300 will be described. The front right decorative body unit 3350 is attached to the front surface of the unit base 3331 of the rear right movable mechanism 3330 in front of the rear right movable decorative body 3320, and extends in the vertical direction. A transparent flat front right decorative body 3352 having a shape like a broken glass attached to the front surface of the body base 3351, and attached between the front right decorative body 3352 and the decorative body base 3351. The front right decorative board 3353 (see FIG. 145) on which a plurality of full-color LEDs capable of emitting light toward the left are mounted on the front surface and the lower right rear decorative body 3352 are attached to the lower rear surface. The magnetic sensor 3003 is provided.

  The front right decorative body 3352 extends vertically in an arc shape so as to be positioned leftward as it goes upward. The front right decorative body 3352 is formed in a jagged shape such that the glass is broken on the left side, and a cracked decoration is formed on the front surface. The back right decorative body unit 3350 can light up and decorate the left side edge and the crack pattern by causing the LED mounted on the back front right decorative board 3353 to emit light.

[5-9d. Backward production unit]
Next, the back effect unit 3400 of the back unit 3000 will be described in detail with reference mainly to FIGS.

When the game ball B is received in the first starting port 2002, a predetermined number (for example, three) of game balls B are paid out to the upper plate 201 from the payout device 580 via the main control board 1310 and the payout control board 633. Is done.

  The game ball B released from the stage 2503 of the center accessory 2500 into the game area 5a may be received in the first start port 2002 or the general winning port 2001 of the start port unit 2100.

  By the way, when the game ball B flowing down to the left side of the center accessory 2500 does not enter the warp entrance 2501, the side ball 2300 and the obstacle nail N move toward the center in the left-right direction, and the general winning port 2001 of the side unit 2200 is displayed. Alternatively, there is a possibility that the first start port 2002, the general winning port 2001, etc. of the start port unit 2100 may be accepted. When the game ball B is received in the general winning opening 2001, a predetermined number (for example, 10) of game balls B are paid out to the upper plate 201 from the payout device 580 via the main control board 1310 and the payout control board 633. Is done.

  On the other hand, when the game ball B that has been driven into the upper part of the center accessory 2500 in the game area 5a enters the right side of the highest part of the outer peripheral surface of the center accessory 2500 (so-called right hit). , It is discharged from the right guide passage 2510 of the center accessory 2500 to the upper part of the attacker unit 2400. Below the downstream end of the right guide passage 2510, the gate unit 2003 and the second start port 2004 in the attacker unit 2400 are provided, and pass through the gate unit 2003 with a certain probability.

  Then, when the game ball B hit right is passed through the gate part 2003, a normal lottery is performed on the main control board 1310. If the lottery normal lottery result is “normal hit”, the second start opening that is closed 2004 is in an open state for a predetermined time (for example, 0.3 to 10 seconds), and the game ball B can be received in the second starting port 2004. Then, when the game ball B is received at the second start port 2004, a predetermined number (for example, four) of game balls B are transferred to the upper plate 201 from the payout device 580 via the main control board 1310 and the payout control board 633. Paid out.

  In the present embodiment, in the normal lottery performed when the game ball B passes through the gate part 2003, a certain amount of time is set from the start of the normal lottery until the normal lottery result is suggested (for example, 0 .01 to 60 seconds, also referred to as normal fluctuation time). The suggestion of the normal lottery result is displayed on the function display unit 1400 of the game board 5. The second start port 2004 is opened after the normal fluctuation time has elapsed.

  In addition, since the game ball B passes the gate part 2003 after the game ball B passes the gate part 2003 until the normal lottery result is suggested, the suggestion of the normal lottery result cannot be started. The start of the suggestion of the normal lottery result is put on hold until the suggestion of the previous normal lottery result ends. In addition, the number of hold of the normal lottery result is up to 4 and the upper limit is discarded without being held even if the game ball B passes through the gate part 2003. This suppresses an increase in the burden on the game hall side by accumulating the hold.

  In the pachinko machine 1 according to the present embodiment, when the game ball B is received in the first start port 2002 and the second start port 2004, the main control board 1310 has an advantageous game state (for example, “hit”, The lottery of the special lottery result that generates “medium hit”, “small hit”, “per probability fluctuation (probability change)”, “per time reduction (shorter time)” is performed. It is suggested to the player over a predetermined time (for example, 0.1 to 360 seconds, also referred to as a special variation time) In addition, the game ball B is received at the first start port 2002 and the second start port 2004, and is drawn by lottery. Special lottery results include “Lost”, “Small Bonus”, “2R Big Bonus”, “5R Big Bonus”, “15R Big Bonus”, “Per Probability (Probability Change)”, “Short Time (Time Reduction)”, “ "Short-term accuracy change" Per "," the second big hit (for example, per character object) ", and the like.

  The special lottery result (first special lottery result and second special lottery result) drawn by accepting the game balls B to the first starting port 2002 and the second starting port 2004 is the special lottery result that generates an advantageous gaming state. In this case, after the special variation time has elapsed, the special winning opening 2005 becomes ready to accept the game ball B in a predetermined opening / closing pattern. When the game ball B is received in the big prize opening 2005 when the big prize opening 2005 is open, a predetermined number (for example, ten or thirteen) from the payout device 580 by the main control board 1310 and the payout control board 633. Of game balls B are paid out to the upper plate 201. Therefore, when the winning ball opening 2005 is capable of receiving the game ball B, by allowing the winning ball opening 2005 to receive the game ball B, it is possible to pay out a lot of the game balls B, and to entertain the player. it can.

  When the special lottery result is “small hit”, the big prize opening 2005 is in an open state in which the game ball B can be received for a predetermined short time (for example, between 0.2 seconds and 0.6 seconds). The opening / closing pattern to be closed is repeated a plurality of times (for example, twice). On the other hand, when the special lottery result is “big hit”, a predetermined time (for example, about 30 seconds) elapses after the big winning opening 2005 is opened to accept the game ball B, or to the big winning opening 2005. An open / close pattern that closes the game ball B in an unacceptable state when one of the conditions for accepting a predetermined number (for example, 10) of the game balls B is satisfied (a single open / close pattern is referred to as one round) Is repeated a predetermined number of times (a predetermined number of rounds). For example, an advantageous gaming state advantageous to the player is generated by repeating two rounds for “2R jackpot”, five rounds for “5R jackpot”, and 15 rounds for “15R jackpot”.

  In “Big Bonus”, after the big hit game ends, the probability that a special lottery result such as “Big Bonus” will be drawn is changed (“probable hit”), or the display time of the effect image that suggests the special lottery result is changed. ("Short-time hit") or "hit".

  When the special lottery result (for example, the second special lottery result) is “per bonus item”, the first winning entrance 2005 is allowed to receive the game ball B in a predetermined pattern and then the first entrance for a predetermined time. When the game ball B can be received at the 2007 (V winning opening) and the game ball B is received at the first receiving port 2007, an ST (special time) is generated as an advantageous game state. This ST is to maintain a certain change or short time state for a predetermined number of fluctuations.

  In this embodiment, the first start opening 2002 and the second start opening 2004 are received from the start of the special lottery by the reception of the game ball B to the second start opening 2004 until the special lottery result is suggested. When the game ball B is received at the second starting port 2004, the suggestion of the special lottery result cannot be started, and therefore the suggestion of the special lottery result is started until the suggestion of the special lottery result previously drawn is completed. Deferred. The number of reserved special lottery results to be held is up to four for each of the first start port 2002 and the second start port 2004, and for more than that, the first start port 2002 and the second start port Even if the game ball B is accepted in 2004, the special lottery result is not put on hold and discarded. This suppresses an increase in the burden on the game hall side by accumulating the hold.

  The suggestion of the special lottery result is performed by the function display unit 1400 and the effect display device 1600. The function display unit 1400 is directly controlled by the main control board 1310 to suggest a special lottery result. The suggestion of the special lottery result in the function display unit 1400 suggests the special lottery result based on the combination of the LEDs that are lit, after a plurality of LEDs are repeatedly turned on / off and blinked for a predetermined time.

  On the other hand, the effect display device 1600 is indirectly controlled by the peripheral control board 1510 based on a control signal from the main control board 1310 and suggests a special lottery result as an effect image. The effect image that suggests the special lottery result on the effect display device 1600 is a state where the image sequence is changed and displayed in a state where three image sequences composed of a plurality of designs are displayed side by side in the horizontal direction. Are stopped and displayed in order, and each of the pattern rows is stopped and displayed so that the patterns of the three pattern rows to be stopped and displayed have a combination corresponding to the special lottery result. When the special lottery result is other than “losing”, after the three pattern rows are stopped and each pattern is stopped and displayed, a finalized image indicating the special lottery result is displayed on the effect display device 1600 and the lottery is selected. An advantageous gaming state (for example, a small hit game, a big hit game, etc.) according to the special lottery result occurs.

  It should be noted that the time indicating the special lottery result in the function display unit 1400 (LED blinking time (variation time)) and the time suggesting the special lottery result in the effect display device 1600 (the pattern string fluctuates and the confirmed image is changed). The time until the display) is different, and the function display unit 1400 is set to a longer time.

  Further, in the peripheral control board 1510, in addition to the display of the effect image for suggesting the special lottery result by the effect display device 1600, the effect operation in the effect operation unit 300 in the door frame 3 according to the lottery special lottery result. It is possible to perform a player participation type effect that operates the rotation operation unit 302 and the press operation unit 303 of the unit 301. In the player participation type effect, the operation ring drive motor 342 can rotate or vibrate the rotation operation unit 302, assist the rotation operation, or inhibit the rotation operation. The press operation unit 303 can be raised and made conspicuous by 367, and the player participation type effect can be enjoyed by the operation of the effect operation unit 301.

  Further, in the peripheral control board 1510, each decoration board provided in the door frame 3, each decoration board provided in the game board 5, and the back and rear effect unit 3100 of the front effect unit 2600 and the rear unit 3000, Using the effect unit 3200, the back right effect unit 3300, the back upper effect unit 3400, the back lower effect unit 3500, the front effect effect unit 3600, etc., it is possible to perform a light emission effect, a movable effect, etc. The player can also be entertained by the performance, and the player's interest in the game can be prevented from decreasing.

  Furthermore, in the peripheral control board 1510, in the player participation type effect that operates the rotation operation unit 302 and the pressing operation unit 303, when the player should perform an operation that should be mistaken or not, the correct operation is performed. To that effect to the player. Specifically, for example, when the pressing operation of the center pressing operation unit 303a is requested, when the outer periphery pressing operation unit 303b is pressed, or when the rotation operating unit 302 is rotated, the vibration speaker 354 vibrates. That effect is displayed on the effect display device 1600.

  Further, in the peripheral control board 1510, in addition to the display of the effect image for suggesting the special lottery result by the effect display device 1600, the front effect unit of the front unit 2000 on the game board 5 according to the selected lottery result. 2600, the back rear effect unit 3100 of the back unit 3000, the back middle effect unit 3200, the back right effect unit 3300, the back upper effect unit 3400, the lower back effect unit 3500, the front effect effect unit 3600, etc. In addition, a movable effect, a display effect, and the like can be performed, and the player can be entertained by various effects, and the player's interest in the game can be prevented from being lowered.

[8. Relationship between the present embodiment and the present invention]
In the present embodiment, the function display unit mounting portion 1011 of the front component member 1000 in the present embodiment is the function display means mounting portion of the present invention, and the panel decoration LED 1130a of the panel decorative board 1130 in the present embodiment is the light emitting means of the present invention. The function display unit 1400 corresponds to the function display means of the present invention.

[9. Characteristic effects of this embodiment]
Thus, according to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment, the back front decorative board 3603 of the back front effect unit 3600 having a predetermined shape arranged behind the game panel (panel board 1110) 1100, and the second pattern Light guide plate LED 2612a on the substrate 2612, light guide plate LED 3172a on the sixth pattern substrate 3172, and light guide plate LED 3221a on the third pattern substrate 3221 emit light to the second pattern 2622, which has a predetermined cracked decoration. A transparent flat front light guide plate 2610, a back second light guide plate 3160, and a back first light guide plate 3210 for emitting and displaying the design 3162 and the third design 3211 are arranged in the game area 5a in a front view. When attached to the rear side so as to close the frame of the transparent frame-shaped front component member 1000 that defines the outer periphery of the game area 5a In addition, a plurality of obstacle nails N are planted in a predetermined gauge arrangement on the front surface, and a game area 5a in a front view is formed on the panel plate 1110 of the transparent flat gaming panel 1100 having a game area 5a formed on the front surface. In the panel plate 1110 of the game panel 1100, the game area 5a passes through the center of the opening 1112, and has an opening 1112 for attaching the center accessory 2500 to a position eccentric to the upper right with respect to the center of the game. With the line orthogonal to the line connecting the center of the opening 1112 and the center of the opening 1112 as a boundary, the side in the direction in which the opening 1112 is eccentric is defined as a decoration pattern non-formation region 1102, and the opposite side is a decoration pattern A formation area 1101 is formed on the back surface of the panel board 1110 in the decoration pattern formation area 1101. Since the decorative pattern 1150 for decorating the rear surface of the panel board 1110 is formed, which has a sense of unity with the decoration of the pattern 3162 and the third pattern 3211, the panel decoration substrate 1130 on which light is incident from the side surface of the panel board 1110. In the state where the panel decoration LED 1130a is not lit, the light from the light emitting decorative body and the effect display device 1600 provided in the pachinko machine 1, the light of the illumination in the game hall in which the pachinko machine 1 is installed Depending on the light from other pachinko machines installed nearby, the position of the eyes of the player sitting in front of the pachinko machine 1, etc., the appearance of the decoration pattern 1150 changes variously. Therefore, the decoration and decoration pattern 1150 of the front decorative board 3603, the second pattern 2622, the sixth pattern 3162, and the third pattern 3211 are displayed. This makes it possible to show the player the inside of the game area 5a with a distinctly different impression (atmosphere) from the conventional pachinko machine with a decorative sheet attached to the game panel. Thus, the pachinko machine 1 with high appeal to the player can be obtained, and the player can enjoy the decoration of the panel plate 1110 of the game panel 1100 to suppress a decrease in the interest of the player.

  When the panel decoration LED 1130a of the panel decoration board 1130 is caused to emit light, the light incident from the side surface of the panel board 1110 of the game panel 1100 is reflected forward by the decoration pattern 1150, so that it can be seen through the transparent panel board 1110. Since the decoration pattern 1150 appears to shine and the rear surface of the panel board 1110 can be illuminated and decorated, the decoration pattern 1150 can be made conspicuous, the appearance in the game area 5a can be improved, and the player's Interest can be attracted strongly and appeal to the player can be enhanced. Further, by decorating the decoration pattern 1150 with light emission, the appearance of the decoration pattern 1150 can be made different from that when the decoration pattern 1150 is not light emission decoration. Therefore, a gaming panel 1100 (panel) that could not be seen with a conventional pachinko machine. The decoration pattern 1150 is illuminated and decorated so that the player may think that there is something good, such as the arrival of a chance. It is possible to increase a sense of expectation for the game and suppress a decrease in interest.

  Further, since the panel holder 1120 to which the panel decoration board 1130 is attached is attached to the rear side of the front component member 1000, the panel decoration board 1130 attached to the panel holder 1120 is removed by the front component member 1000. Since it can be made difficult to see, it is possible to make it difficult for the player to notice the presence of the panel decoration substrate 1130 (panel decoration LED 1130a). This makes it possible for the player to think that the decoration pattern 1150 of the panel board 1110 does not emit light at the beginning of the game. Therefore, when the decoration pattern 1150 is illuminated with the panel decoration LED 1130a, the player Can be greatly surprised, and the light-emitting decoration of the decoration pattern 1150 can be wondered, so that the player can be entertained and the decrease in interest can be suppressed.

  In addition, since the front component member 1000 has translucency, the panel plate 1110 having the game area 5a formed on the front surface is compared with the case where the front component member 1000 is opaque and black. Since it is transparent, the front component member 1000 can have a similar atmosphere to the panel plate 1110, and the boundary between the panel plate 1110 and the front component member 1000 in the front view (the outer periphery of the game area 5a). Can be made difficult for the player to recognize, and the player can feel the gaming area 5a wide, and the gaming area 5a that feels wide is different from other pachinko machines at a glance to the player. It can be recognized that there is, and the appeal to the player can be enhanced.

  In addition, the panel decoration substrate 1130 is disposed in the rear part of the function display unit mounting portion 1011 in the upper left corner and the stamp sticking portion 1012 in the lower left corner, which are part of the four corners of the front component member 1000 in a front view. Since the portion near the function display unit mounting portion 1011 and the certificate sticking portion 1012 in the panel board 1110 is used as the decoration pattern forming area 1101, the panel is close to the decoration pattern 1150 formed in the decoration pattern forming area 1101 of the panel board 1110. The decoration LED 1130a is positioned, and when the panel decoration LED 1130a emits light, the decoration pattern 1150 can be brightly decorated, and the effect when the decoration pattern 1150 is decorated with light emission can be further enhanced.

  Further, since the panel decoration LED 1130a is a side view type and the surface of the panel decoration board 1130 is parallel to the surface of the panel board 1110, the dimension in the front-rear direction of the panel decoration board 1130 is made as thin as possible. Even if the panel decoration substrate 1130 is attached, an increase in the thickness of the panel holder 1120 can be suppressed, and the size of the panel decoration substrate 1130 in the front-rear direction is reduced, so that the side surface of the panel plate 1110 can be reduced. The panel decoration substrate 1130 can be easily arranged at a position where the light from the panel decoration LED 1130a can be effectively incident, and the decoration pattern is formed by making the light incident on the side surface of the panel plate 1110 with a sufficient amount of light. 1150 can be illuminated.

  Further, since the plate surface of the panel decoration substrate 1130 is arranged in parallel with the surface of the panel plate 1110, the width of the plate surface of the panel decoration substrate 1130 is made larger than the thickness in the front-rear direction of the panel holder 1120. Is possible. In this embodiment, the width of the panel decoration substrate 1130 is larger than the thickness of the panel holder 1120 in the front-rear direction, and the inclination of the plate surface (optical axis) due to manufacturing errors, mounting errors, etc. is reduced. Light from the decoration LED 1130a can be reliably irradiated to a desired portion on the side surface of the panel board 1110, and the decoration pattern 1150 formed on the panel board 1110 can be surely illuminated and decorated.

  Further, the panel decoration board 1130 is arranged with its plate surface parallel to the surface of the panel board 1110, the width of the panel decoration board 1130 is made larger than the thickness of the panel holder 1120 in the front-rear direction, and the panel decoration board 1130 is arranged. Since the board 1130 is white, it is difficult to recognize the panel decoration board 1130 through the transparent front constituent member 1000, and the appearance of the pachinko machine 1 can be prevented from deteriorating.

  Furthermore, since the panel decoration board 1130 is attached to the rear of the function display unit attachment part 1011 at the upper left corner and the stamp sticking part 1012 at the lower right corner, respectively, of the four corners of the front component member 1000 in a front view. Since light can be incident on the panel plate 1110 from different directions, it is possible to easily spread light to every corner of the decorative pattern 1150 that is widely formed on the rear surface of the panel plate 1110. Uniform light emission decoration can be achieved.

  Further, the panel decoration board 1130 on which the panel decoration LED 1130a is mounted is attached to the panel holder 1120 via the board cover 1135, so that it can be used for transportation, installation in a game hall, maintenance work, etc. Even if vibration or impact acts on the pachinko machine 1, it can be made difficult to be transmitted to the panel decoration board 1130 (panel decoration LED 1130a), and damage due to vibration or impact can be suppressed to reduce deterioration of durability. Can do. Further, since it is possible to make it difficult to transmit vibrations and shocks, it is possible to prevent the positional relationship between the panel decorative substrate 1130 and the panel plate 1110 from being shifted. In addition to preventing problems, it is possible to make light incident on a desired portion of the side surface of the panel plate 1110, and to decorate the decoration pattern 1150 in a favorable state.

  Further, since the substrate cover 1135 having translucency is used, it becomes possible to irradiate a part of the light from the panel decoration LED 1130a to the transparent front constituent member 1000 in front through the substrate cover 1135, and the panel decoration substrate. Even if 1130 is attached to the substrate cover 1135, the front front structural member 1000 can be decorated with light emission.

  In addition, since the frame-shaped front component member 1000 has a substantially circular shape in the frame that is the same as the game area 5a, and has a rectangular outer shape, the inner periphery and the outer periphery of the front component member 1000 (panel holder 1120) The width is widest at the four corners, and the function display unit attaching portion 1011 and the certificate sticking portion 1012 are provided at the two upper left corners and the lower left corners of the four corners, and the functions of the panel holder 1120 Since the panel decoration board 1130 is attached to the rear part of the display unit attachment part 1011 and the certificate sticking part 1012, a space for attaching the panel decoration board 1130 can be easily secured. The pachinko machine 1 having the above-described effects can be realized.

  Furthermore, the panel decoration board 1130 is attached to the board mounting recesses 1127 at the four corners (upper left corner and lower left corner) of the panel holder 1120 via the board cover 1135, and the frame-like panel holder 1120 is attached at that part. Since the width between the inner periphery and the outer periphery is wider than other portions, the width of the panel decoration substrate 1130 can be increased in front view. In the present embodiment, since the width of the panel decoration substrate 1130 is increased, the inclination of the panel decoration substrate 1130 due to a manufacturing error, an attachment error, or the like is reduced. Therefore, the panel decoration mounted on the panel decoration substrate 1130 is reduced. The deviation of the optical axis of the LED for LED 1130a is reduced, and the light from the LED for panel decoration 1130a can be reliably irradiated to a desired portion on the side surface of the panel board 1110, and the decoration pattern formed on the rear surface of the panel board 1110 1150 can be surely decorated with light emission.

  Further, since the panel decoration substrate 1130 is attached behind the function display unit attachment portion 1011 and the certificate sticking portion 1012 of the front component 1000, when the panel decoration LED 1130a emits light in order to make the decoration pattern 1150 emit light, A part of the light from the panel decoration LED 1130a is irradiated forward, or a part of the light incident on the side surface of the panel board 1110 from the panel decoration LED 1130a is reflected forward by the side surface of the panel board 1110. The function display unit 1400 attached to the function display unit attachment part 1011 of the front component 1000 or the stamp attached to the certificate sticking part 1012 is illuminated from the rear, so that the function display unit 1400 and the certificate paper, or , Light emitting decoration around function display unit 1400 and certificate paper The function display unit 1400 and the light emission decoration (light emission effect) of the certificate paper, which has not been seen in conventional pachinko machines, can give a strong impact to the player, and the function display unit 1400 and the certificate paper The luminescent decoration can make the player think that there is something good, and can increase the sense of expectation for the game and suppress the decrease in interest.

  Further, in the front structural member 1000 having translucency, the panel decoration substrate 1130 is attached to the rear of the function display unit attachment portion 1011 at the upper left corner and the stamp sticking portion 1012 at the lower left corner, respectively. Each of the panel decoration LEDs 1130a of the panel decoration substrate 1130 emits light from the rear at different portions (upper left corner and lower left corner) of the four corners of the front structural member 1000 having translucency. The upper left corner and the lower left corner of the four corners of the member 1000 can be decorated with light emission, and the above-described effects can be easily achieved.

  Further, since the board mounting recess 1127 is provided on the front surface of the panel holder 1120, the panel decoration board 1130 is mounted in the board mounting recess 1127 via the board cover 1135 so that the front side of the panel holder 1120 is forward. The panel decoration substrate 1130 (substrate cover 1135) does not protrude, and the panel decoration substrate 1130 can be attached without increasing the thickness of the panel holder 1120 in the front-rear direction. Further, the rear surface of the panel holder 1120 includes a connection connector 1131a of the panel decoration board 1130 and a connection recess 1128 from which the connection connector 1132a protrudes. When the panel decoration board 1130 is attached to the board attachment recess 1127, the connection connector 1131a and connection Since the rear end of the connector 1132a is substantially at the same position as the rear surface of the panel holder 1120, the panel plate 1110 can be suppressed while suppressing an increase in the thickness of the panel holder 1120 in the front-rear direction even when the panel decoration board 1130 is attached to the panel holder 1120. The decorative pattern 1150 formed on the rear surface can be illuminated.

  Further, since the connection recess 1128 is provided on the rear surface of the panel holder 1120, the connector on the other side is connected to the connection connector 1131 a and the connection connector 1132 a of the panel decorative substrate 1130 by inserting a finger into the connection recess 1128. It is possible to improve the workability. Further, as described above, the presence of the connection recess 1128 makes it possible to easily insert and remove the connector without causing the connection connector 1131a and the connection connector 1132a to protrude rearward from the rear surface of the panel holder 1120. An increase in thickness in the front-rear direction of the panel holder 1120 due to the attachment of the substrate 1130 can be suppressed, and the same effect as described above can be achieved.

  Further, the decoration pattern 1150 that is always visible has a portion along the outer edge that faces the inside of the front front decoration board 3603 in the front front effect unit 3600 disposed behind the game panel 1100. The portion of the decorative pattern 1150 can make it difficult to recognize the outer edge of the front front decorative substrate 3603 when viewed through the panel plate 1110 of the game panel 1100. In addition, since the decorative pattern 1150 has a portion along the outer edge of the front decorative substrate 3603, the decoration of the decorative pattern 1150 and the shape (decoration) of the front decorative substrate 3603 are similar. Therefore, the front decorative board 3603 and the decorative pattern 1150 can show a decoration with a sense of unity, can show a decoration with a sense of depth, and improve the appearance of the game area 5a in a front view. be able to.

  Furthermore, in a state where the light guide plate LED 2612a, the light guide plate LED 3172a, and the light guide plate LED 3221a are not emitting light, the front light guide plate 2610, the back second light guide plate 3160, and the back first light guide plate 3210 are transparent. The display screen of the effect display device 1600 disposed behind the front light guide plate 2610, the back second light guide plate 3160, and the back first light guide plate 3210 can be viewed from the front, and the panel plate of the game panel 1100 A decorative pattern 1150 formed on 1110 can be visually recognized. In this state, when any of the light guide plate LED 2612a, the light guide plate LED 3172a, and the light guide plate LED 3221a and the panel decoration LED 1130a emit light, the second pattern 2622 of the front light guide plate 2610 and the second second light guide plate 3160 Since the player can show a light emitting decoration in which the decoration of the six patterns 3162 and the third pattern 3211 of the back first light guide plate 3210 and the decoration pattern 1150 are integrated, it has a strong impact on the player. And can attract the player's interest, and can make the player think that there is something good. Can be suppressed.

  Further, the decoration pattern 1150 is formed outside the normal light guide region 1103 and the radiation portion 1151 formed in the normal light guide region 1103 within a predetermined range from the panel decoration LED 1130a of the panel decorative substrate 1130 in the gaming panel 1100. A radiation unit 1151 and a radiation light guide unit 1152 that reflects light incident from the side surface of the panel plate 1110 of the game panel 1100 forward and guides it to the radiation unit 1151 that is away from the normal light guide region 1103. Since the light is guided to the radiation part 1151 formed outside the normal light guide region 1103 by the radiation light guide part 1152 of the decoration pattern 1150, the radiation part 1151 far from the panel decoration LED 1130a can be used as a panel. Brightness similar to that of the radiating portion 1151 close to the decorative LED 1130a It is possible to emit light decoration, decorative pattern 1150 can be uniformly luminescent decorative whole, it is possible to improve the appearance of the light emitting decoration decorative pattern 1150.

  Further, since the light can be guided from the panel decoration LED 1130a to the radiation section 1151 at a far position by the radiation light guide unit 1152, the panel decoration LED 1130a is partially connected to the outer peripheral side surface of the panel plate 1110 of the game panel 1100. Even if arranged, the decoration pattern 1150 can be illuminated and decorated uniformly. Accordingly, there is no need to dispose the panel decoration LED 1130a over the entire circumference of the panel plate 1110, and the panel decoration LED 1130a can be disposed at the upper left and lower left positions in front view where space can be easily secured. It is possible to avoid the panel plate 1110 of the gaming panel 1100 from becoming small in order to secure the space for arranging the LEDs 1130a.

  Further, in the panel plate 1110 of the gaming panel 1100, the center and the opening of the gaming area 5a (panel plate 1110) pass through the center of the opening 1112 that is eccentrically penetrated to the upper right for mounting the center accessory 2500. The width of the panel plate 1110 is narrow on the side (upper right side) in the direction in which the opening 1112 is eccentric with respect to the line orthogonal to the line connecting the center of 1112, and the opposite side (lower left side) is the panel Since the width of the plate 1110 is wide, the wide side is used as a decorative pattern forming region 1101 and the narrow side is used as a decorative pattern non-forming region 1102, so that the wide decorative pattern forming region 1101 of the panel plate 1110 is used. Since the decoration pattern 1150 is formed on the surface, the decoration pattern 1150 becomes larger and the decoration pattern 1150 can be easily seen. 0 of decoration can be to entertain the player. Further, since the decoration pattern 1150 is not formed in the narrow decoration pattern non-formation area 1102 of the panel board 1110, the appearance in the game area 5a is not good even if the decoration pattern 1150 is not formed in the area. In other words, it is possible to avoid wasting the decorative pattern 1150 in a narrow and difficult-to-see region, and to reduce the effort for forming the decorative pattern 1150.

  In addition, since the decoration pattern 1150 is formed on a part of the rear surface (decoration pattern formation region 1101) of the panel board 1110 of the game panel 1100, the decoration pattern 1150 is formed on the entire rear surface of the panel board 1110. Compared with the case where it makes, the effort concerning formation of the decoration pattern 1150 can be reduced, and the increase in the cost of the pachinko machine 1 can be suppressed.

  Further, in the panel plate 1110 of the game panel 1100, a predetermined radius in front view centering on the specific obstacle nail N1 that affects the game content among the plurality of obstacle nails N is set as a decoration prohibited area 1104, and the decoration prohibited area 1104 is avoided. Thus, the decoration pattern 1150 is formed. As a result, the countless gaming balls B abut on the specific obstacle nail N1, and the specific obstacle nail N1 is distorted or tilted, so that it is impossible to provide a preset flow of the game ball B. In order to prevent this, when the specific obstacle nail N1 is struck and adjusted to a preset state, the decoration pattern 1150 is not formed around the specific obstacle nail N1 (decoration prohibited area 1104). The current distortion state of N1 can be easily seen, and the maintenance of the specific obstacle nail N1 can be facilitated. Further, since the decorative pattern 1150 is not formed around the specific obstacle nail N1, even if the specific failure nail N1 is hit during maintenance, the impact transmitted from the specific obstacle nail N1 to the panel plate 1110 is not affected. It will be attenuated to some extent by the time it reaches the decorative pattern 1150 near the nail N1, and even if stress is concentrated, the force is weakened and the panel board 1110 is cracked or cracked. However, it is possible to facilitate maintenance of the specific obstacle nail N1.

  Further, since the decoration prohibition region 1104 is provided, it is possible to clarify the part of the panel board 1110 where the decoration pattern 1150 can be formed, and thus the decoration pattern 1150 is unnecessary for the specific obstacle nail N1. It is possible to avoid moving away from the player, and it is possible to easily form a variety of decoration patterns 1150 and to form a decoration pattern 1150 having a high decorativeness, thereby further increasing the appeal to the player. be able to.

  In addition, since the decoration pattern 1150 is formed by avoiding the specific obstacle nail N1 by the decoration prohibited area 1104, the decoration pattern 1150 and the pattern behind the part where the obstacle nail N except the specific obstacle nail N1 is implanted Since there are also overlapping objects, the obstacle nail N that is planted so as to overlap the decoration pattern 1150 is irradiated with light by the decoration pattern 1150 that is decorated with light emission, and the obstacle nail N is irradiated with the obstacle nail N. The tip of the nail N can be shined, and the player can enjoy the light-emitting effects that could not be seen with conventional pachinko machines, such as the obstacle nail N and the tip shining.

  In addition, when the decoration pattern 1150 is illuminated with the panel decoration LED 1130a, the portion between the outer periphery and the inner periphery of the front component member 1000 that is outside the game area 5a is also caused to emit light by the light of the illumination decoration. it can. Since the portion between the outer periphery and the inner periphery of the front component member 1000 can be light-decorated by the light-emitting decoration of the decoration pattern 1150, the function display unit 1400 and the certificate stamp pasting portion 1012 attached to the portion are attached. Since it is possible to irradiate the pasted certificate paper with light from the rear, the function display unit 1400 and the certificate paper can be decorated with light emission, and the function display that did not emit light with the conventional pachinko machine The unit 1400 and the certificate are decorated with a light-emitting decoration, which can have a strong impact on the player, and the fact that they are decorated with a light-emitting decoration strongly suggests that there may be something good for the player. It is possible to increase the player's expectation for the game and to suppress the decrease in interest.

  Furthermore, according to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment, the effect display device 1600 is arranged in the center of the game area 5a so as to be visible through the game panel 1100 (panel plate 1110) in front view, and more than the effect display device 1600. A transparent back first light guide plate 3210 and a back second light guide plate 3160 are arranged in front, and the transparent first light guide plate 3210 and the back second light guide plate 3160 extend from the outside to the inside position. A back middle decorative lens 3203 and a back rear decorative lens 3152 are arranged. The light guide plate LED 3171a of the fifth pattern substrate 3171, the light guide plate LED 3172a of the sixth pattern substrate 3172, the light guide plate LED 3221a of the third pattern substrate 3221, and the light guide plate LED 3222a of the fourth pattern substrate 3222. In the state where no light is emitted, the back first light guide plate 3210 and the back second light guide plate 3160 are in a transparent state, and the rear effect display device 1600 is passed through the back first light guide plate 3210 and the back second light guide plate 3160. The effect image displayed on the screen can be visually recognized, the displayed effect image can be enjoyed, and the back-side decorative lens 3203 and the back-side decorative lens 3152 are difficult to see.

  In this state, when the light guide plate LED 3172a or the light guide plate LED 3221a and the LED 3203a, the LED 3221b, the LED 3222b, the LED 3153a, the LED 3171b, and the LED 3172b are caused to emit light, the front of the effect display device 1600 at the center in the front view game area 5a. The third pattern 3211 or the sixth pattern 3162 as the specific pattern on which the specific object (broken glass) is drawn is displayed in a light-emitting manner, and the third pattern 3211 or the sixth pattern 3162 is surrounded by the third pattern. The unit base 3151, the back rear decorative lens 3152, the unit base 3201, and the back inner decorative lens 3203 having the same shape as the object of the 3211 and the sixth pattern 3162 are illuminated and decorated, and the third pattern 3211 and the sixth pattern 3162 emit light. Display and unit base 3151, rear decoration len The effect image displayed on the effect display device 1600 becomes difficult to see due to the light emission decoration of the 3152, the unit base 3201, and the back inner decorative lens 3203, and the light emission decoration is performed with the third picture 3211 or the sixth picture 3162 that is light-emitting displayed. The unit base 3151, the back rear decorative lens 3152, the unit base 3201, and the back inner decorative lens 3203 will be conspicuous.

  That is, the light emission display of the third pattern 3211 or the sixth pattern 3162 by the back first light guide plate 3210 or the back second light guide plate 3160 and the light emission of the unit base 3151, the back rear decorative lens 3152, the unit base 3201, and the back middle decorative lens 3203. When the lighting effect by decoration is executed, the effect image displayed on the effect display device 1600 becomes difficult to see. Instead, the third picture 3211 or the sixth picture 3162, the unit base 3151, the back decorative lens 3152, Since the unit base 3201 and the back inner decorative lens 3203 are conspicuous, it has a strong impact on the player and can be thought of as something good for the player. Can be increased. At this time, since the third pattern 3211 and the sixth pattern 3162 are separated from the unit base 3151, the back rear decorative lens 3152, the unit base 3201, and the back inner decorative lens 3203 in the front-rear direction, the third pattern 3211 is provided. Or the sixth pattern 3162, the unit base 3151, the back rear decorative lens 3152, the unit base 3201, and the back inner decorative lens 3203 overlapped in the front-rear direction so that the overlapping part protrudes forward. Alternatively, it can be seen as if it is retracted rearward, and a stereoscopic image with perspective can be displayed by light emission, so that the player can be wondered and the back first light guide plate 3210 or the back Second light guide plate 3160, unit base 3151, back decorative lens 3152, unit base 3201, back inner decoration And the back first light guide plate 3210 and the back second light guide plate 3160, the unit base 3151, the back rear decorative lens 3152, the unit base 3201, and the back middle decorative lens 3203. It is possible to entertain the player with the light-emitting effect, and to suppress the lowering of interest in the player's game.

  In addition, a transparent unit base 3151, a rear back decorative lens 3152, a unit base 3201, and a back inner decorative lens 3203 formed in the same shape as the specific target portion drawn as the third pattern 3211 and the sixth pattern 3162 are provided. The third pattern 3211 and the sixth pattern 3162 are provided before and after the back first light guide plate 3210 and the back second light guide plate 3160 on which light emission is displayed, and at least three members having different positions in the front and rear direction are provided. Therefore, it is possible to further emphasize the perspective when each of them emits light, and to reliably exhibit the above-described effects.

  Further, the inner end faces of the back inner decorative lens 3203 and the back rear decorative lens 3152 are inclined, and the LED 3203a, LED 3221b, LED 3222b, LED 3153a, LED 3171b, and LED 3172b are replaced with the back inner decorative lens 3203 and the rear rear decorative lens. Light is irradiated to the inside of the back middle decorative lens 3203 and the back rear decorative lens 3152 in a direction parallel to the surfaces of the back first light guide plate 3210 and the back second light guide plate 3160 toward the inner end face of the 3152. Therefore, the light emitted to the inside of the back inner decorative lens 3203 and the back rear decorative lens 3152 is reflected forward and radiated forward on the inner end face (the outer peripheral edge facing inward). It faces the inside of the back inner decorative lens 3203 and the back rear decorative lens 3152 The peripheral edge can be illuminated and illuminated in a band shape, making it easier for the player to recognize the shapes of the back inner decorative lens 3203 and the back rear decorative lens 3152, and the back inner decorative lens 3203 and the back rear decorative lens 3152. And the third pattern 3211 and the sixth pattern of the back first light guide plate 3210 and the back second light guide plate 3160 are enhanced by emphasizing the outer peripheral shapes of the back inner decorative lens 3203 and the back rear decorative lens 3152. It is possible to easily recognize that the position in the front-rear direction of the 3162, the back middle decorative lens 3203, and the back rear decorative lens 3152 is different, and it is possible to perform a three-dimensional pattern light emission effect with a sense of perspective. .

  In addition, the inner end faces (outer peripheral edges facing the inner side) of the back inner decorative lens 3203 and the rear rear decorative lens 3152 are inclined with respect to the front-rear direction. Since the reflection direction (or refraction direction) is different from the flat front surface at the outer peripheral edge of the back decorative lens 3152, the illumination light in the game hall in which the pachinko machine 1 is installed and other pachinko machines Depending on the state of light irradiated from the front, such as light from the inside, into the game area 5a, the front surface of the back inner decorative lens 3203 and the back rear decorative lens 3152 appears to be transparent, whereas the back inner decorative lens 3203 and the back The outer peripheral edge of the rear decorative lens 3152 appears to be shining or translucent, and the shape and presence of the back inner decorative lens 3203 and the rear rear decorative lens 3152 are determined for the player. The can be easier to recognize, it is possible to enhance the decorative effect in the game area 5a by back in decorative lens 3203 and back after decoration lens 3152.

  In addition, after the back first light guide plate 3210 and the back second light guide plate 3160 are arranged apart from each other in the front-rear direction, the objects as the third pattern 3211 and the sixth pattern 3162 drawn in time are displayed in time series. Therefore, the back first light guide plate 3210 and the back first light guide plate 3210 are arranged in the time series order of the objects drawn as the third picture 3211 and the sixth picture 3162 or in the reverse order of the time series. If each of the third pattern 3211 and the sixth pattern 3162 of the two light guide plates 3160 is sequentially lit and displayed, it is possible to show the player a moving luminescence effect, which makes it difficult for the player to get bored. Can be entertained, and can have a strong impact on the player and make the player think that there is something good for them. It is possible to suppress.

  In addition, since the effect display device 1600 is provided, by displaying the effect image that is matched with the third pattern 3211 and the sixth pattern 3162 that are emitted and displayed, the third pattern 3211, the sixth pattern 3162, and the back side are displayed. Collaboration effect by the decorative lens 3203 or the back decorative lens 3152 and the effect image (for example, an effect that the glass is broken by the light emission display of the third pattern 3211 or the sixth pattern 3162 by the character displayed as the effect image, The effect that the character of the effect image appears due to the broken glass by the light emission display of the three patterns 3211 and the sixth pattern 3162, etc. can be performed, and it is difficult to get tired of the player by various effects. The decrease can be suppressed.

  Furthermore, according to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment, the transparent game panel that defines the rear end of the game area 5a when the back rear movable decorative body 3120 in the back rear effect unit 3100 of the back unit 3000 is in the standby position. Through 1100 (panel board 1110), an effect display device 1600 that displays an effect image in the center of the game area 5a in front view is located, and the effect display device 1600 has an upper portion in front of the effect display device 1600. The rear rear movable decorative body 3120 of the large rear rear effect unit 3100 extending so as to straddle the display screen in the left-right direction is located. In this state, the lock member 3141 is in the locked position, and the lock protrusion 3122a of the left slider 3122 of the back movable decorative body 3120 is in contact with the restriction portion 3141c of the lock member 3141 from above, and the restriction portion The movement of the back movable decorative body 3120 to the lower side than 3141c is restricted. Further, the lock member 3141 is urged from the release position side to the lock position side by the lock spring 3143 via the transmission slider 3142, and the stopper 3141 e comes into contact with the rotation restricting member 3144 to move from the lock position to the release position. The rotation to the opposite side is restricted.

  Then, the lock member 3141 is moved to the lock position by the downward movement of the slide guide 3134 by the drive of the back back drive motor 3135 of the back back movable mechanism 3130 according to the game state that is changed by playing the game in the game area 5a. If the restricting portion 3141c is moved to a position where it does not come into contact with the lock protrusion 3122a of the back rear movable decorative body 3120, the effect display device is caused by gravity acting on the back rear movable decorative body 3120. It drops (moves) to the lower moving end (downward position) so as to cut through the front of 1600. When the slide guide 3134 is moved upward after the back movable ornament 3120 is dropped, the lock member 3141 is rotated from the release position to the lock position by the urging force of the lock spring 3143. Thereafter, when the back movable movable decorative body 3120 is moved upward by the slide guide 3134 of the back movable movable mechanism 3130, the lock protrusion 3122a of the back rear movable decorative body 3120 comes into contact with the guide portion 3141d of the lock member 3141, thereby locking. The member 3141 rotates to the release position side, and the back rear movable decorative body 3120 can move upward to a position beyond the restricting portion 3141c of the lock member 3141. Then, when the lock protrusion 3122a of the back movable ornament 3120 moves above the lock member 3141, the lock member 3141 is rotated to the lock position by the urging force of the lock spring 3143, and the back movable ornament 3120 is viewed from the front. It will return to the state located in the upper part in the game area | region 5a.

  Thus, when the lock member 3141 is moved from the lock position to the release position by the transmission slider 3142 of the back-back movable mechanism 3130 according to the gaming state, a large back-back movable decorative body that straddles the effect display device 1600 in the left-right direction. Since 3120 falls (moves) so as to cut the front side of the effect display device 1600, the back movable decorative body 3120 blocks the effect image displayed on the effect display device 1600, thereby allowing the player to The movement of the back movable ornament 3120 can be noticed, and the player's interest can be strongly attracted to the back movable ornament 3120. In addition, when the large back-back movable decoration body 3120 falls, a strong impact can be given to the player, and the player's interest can be strongly attracted to the back-back movable decoration body 3120. It is possible to make the player strongly think that an advantageous gaming state in which the player has an advantage is generated, and to increase a sense of expectation for the game and to suppress a decrease in interest.

  By the way, the back-back movable decorative body 3120 is sized so as to straddle the effect display device 1600 in the left-right direction, and both ends in the left-right direction are movably attached by the slide shafts 3132, so the back-back movable decorative body 3120. Tends to be inclined with respect to the left-right direction (horizontal). On the other hand, when unlocking the back rear movable decorative body 3120 by the lock member 3141, the restricting portion 3141c of the lock member 3141 is opposite to the downward direction in which the back rear movable decorative body 3120 is about to move. The lock member 3141 is rotated so as to move upward, so that the lock protrusion 3122a of the rear rear movable decorative body 3120 is difficult to be removed from the restricting portion 3141c. Thereby, even if the back movable ornament 3120 tilts, the lock protrusion 3122a does not come off from the restricting portion 3141c, and the back movable ornament 3120 can be prevented from falling down on its own. Therefore, since the back movable ornament 3120 can be prevented from falling without permission, it is possible to prevent the player from feeling distrustful due to the back falling movable ornament 3120 being arbitrarily dropped. Can be released at a desired timing according to the game state and the back movable ornament 3120 can be dropped, and the effect of the movable effect using the back movable ornament 3120 can be surely exhibited. be able to.

  In addition, since the effect display device 1600 is provided, by displaying the effect image on the effect display device 1600, it is possible to entertain the player even with the effect image, and to suppress a decrease in the interest of the player in the game. Can do. Further, the effect display device 1600 capable of displaying the effect image displays the effect image adapted to the movement of the back movable decorative body 3120, whereby a collaboration effect (for example, the effect image of the back movable ornament 3120 and the effect image) is displayed. , An effect in which the back movable ornament 3120 is moved by the character displayed as the effect image, an effect in which the character is moved by moving the back movable ornament 3120, etc.) It is possible to prevent the player from getting bored by various effects and to suppress the decrease in interest.

  Also, as described above, when unlocking the back movable decorative body 3120, the lock member 3141 is rotated so that the restricting portion 3141c moves upward, so that the effect display device 1600 is displayed. Even if the weight of the back back movable decorative body 3120 increases, the lock protrusion 3122a of the back back movable decorative body 3120 is disengaged from the restricting portion 3141c. Since it can be made difficult, the back movable ornament 3120 can be sufficiently locked by the single lock member 3141. Since only one lock member 3141 is provided, it is not necessary to secure a space for providing them as compared to the case where a plurality of lock members 3141 are provided, and the lock member 3141 is provided. Can be made as small as possible, and the rear movable decorative body 3120 can be made relatively large and conspicuous.

  Furthermore, since the lock member 3141 is attached in the vicinity of the upward movement end of the back movable decorative body 3120, the lock member 3141 moves from the restricting portion 3141c (standby position) to the downward movement end (downward position). The distance can be made as long as possible. Therefore, by allowing the back movable ornament 3120 to fall a long distance, the player's interest can be easily attracted to the back movable ornament 3120 and a strong impact can be given to the player. , It is possible to entertain the player and suppress a decrease in interest.

  Further, since the lock member 3141 is attached in the vicinity of the upward moving end of the back movable decorative body 3120, a certain distance (space) is formed between the locking member 3141 (the restricting portion 3141c) and the upward moving end. Therefore, when the lock member 3141 is rotated from the lock position to the release position by the back movable mechanism 3130, it is possible to secure a space in which the restricting portion 3141c can move upward. The member 3141 can be reliably rotated to the release position, and the movement of the back and rear movable decorative body 3120 can be locked or unlocked by the lock member 3141.

  Further, since the lock member 3141 is provided with a guide portion 3141d extending obliquely, when the back movable ornament 3120 is moved upward and returned to the original position, it is locked by the back rear movable mechanism 3130. Even if the member 3141 is not rotated to the release position side, the lock protrusion 3122a comes into contact with the guide portion 3141d as the back movable decorative body 3120 moves, so that the lock member 3141 is automatically rotated to the release position side. Can be moved. Therefore, when the back movable movable body 3120 is returned to the original state, it is not necessary to control the back back drive motor 3135 of the back back movable mechanism 3130, and the load on the production control can be reduced. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the player from being entertained due to instability of the production control and deteriorating the interest.

  Further, since the rotation of the stopper 3141e of the lock member 3141 to the rotation restricting member 3144 restricts the rotation from the lock position to the opposite side to the release position, the lock member 3141 contacts the restricting portion 3141c at the lock position. Even if a force acts downward from the lock protrusion 3122a side of the back movable movable body 3120, the lock member 3141 rotates to the side opposite to the release position, and the lock protrusion 3122a of the back movable decorative body 3120 Can be prevented from coming off from the restricting portion 3141c, and the back movable decorative body 3120 can be surely prevented from dropping without permission.

  Further, the rear back drive motor 3135 of the back back movable mechanism 3130 is driven to move the slide guide 3134 downward, and the lock member 3141 is rotated from the lock position to the release position via the transmission slider 3142, and then back back movable. When the slide guide 3134 is moved upward by the back rear drive motor 3135 to return the decorative body 3120 to the original state, the lock member 3141 automatically rotates from the release position to the lock position by the urging force of the lock spring 3143. Therefore, after releasing the back movable decorative body 3120 by releasing the back back movable mechanism 3130 and returning the lock member 3141 to the lock position by the back back movable mechanism 3130, the lock spring 3143 returns the lock member 3141 to the lock position. be able to.
