The game board 2 is configured by a non-light-transmitting member such as a plywood board in a substantially square shape when viewed from the front. It may be configured.

  In a predetermined position of the game board 2 (in the example shown in FIG. 1, to the right of the game area 10), a variable display of special symbols (also referred to as special figures) as special identification information of a plurality of types (also referred to as special figure games). The first special symbol display device 4A and the second special symbol display device 4B are provided. These consist of 7-segment LEDs (light emitting diodes) and the like, and special symbols may be numbers such as “0” to “9” or lighting patterns such as “−”. The special symbol may include a pattern in which all LEDs are turned off.

  The “variable display” of the special symbol is, for example, to display a plurality of special symbols in a variable manner (the same applies to other symbols described later). Examples of the fluctuation include an update display of a plurality of symbols, a scroll display of a plurality of symbols, deformation of one or more symbols, and enlargement / reduction of one or more symbols. In the case of a special symbol or a variation of a normal symbol described later, a plurality of types of special symbols or normal symbols are updated and displayed. In the variation of the decorative pattern described later, a plurality of types of decorative patterns are scroll-displayed or updated, or one or more decorative symbols are deformed or enlarged / reduced. Note that the variation includes a mode in which a certain symbol is blinked. At the end of the variable display, a predetermined special symbol is stopped as a display result (also referred to as derivation or derivation display) (the same applies to variable display of other symbols described later). Note that variable display may be expressed as variable display or fluctuation.

  The special symbol variably displayed on the first special symbol display device 4A is also referred to as "first special symbol", and the special symbol variably displayed on the second special symbol display device 4B is also referred to as "second special symbol". In addition, the special figure game using the first special figure is referred to as a “first special figure game”, and the special figure game using the second special figure is also referred to as a “second special figure game”. There may be one kind of special symbol display device that performs variable display of special symbols.

Note that a frame-shaped center decorative frame 51 is provided in the opening 2 c in the game board 2.

  For example, on the screen of the image display device 5, in synchronization with the first special symbol game or the second special symbol game, decorative symbols (such as symbols indicating numbers) as a plurality of types of decorative identification information different from the special symbols. The variable display is performed. Here, in synchronization with the first special game or the second special game, the decorative symbols are variably displayed in the left, middle, and right decorative symbol display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R (for example, up and down) Direction scroll display and update display). Note that the special display game and the variable display of the decorative symbols executed in synchronism are collectively referred to simply as variable display.

  On the screen of the image display device 5, there may be provided a display area 5H for displaying a hold display corresponding to the variable display for which execution is suspended and an active display corresponding to the variable display being executed. . The hold display and the active display are collectively referred to as a variable display compatible display corresponding to the variable display. In the display area 5H, a first hold display image (here, a circle image) corresponding to the first special figure game (variable display of decorative symbols) for which execution is suspended is displayed right-justified and execution is suspended. A second reserved display image (here, a circle image) corresponding to the second special figure game (variable display of decorative symbols) being displayed is displayed left-justified.

  The number of variable displays that are held is also called the number of stored memories. The number of reserved memories corresponding to the first special figure game is also referred to as a first reserved memory number, and the number of reserved memories corresponding to the second special figure game is also referred to as a second reserved memory number. The total of the first reserved memory number and the second reserved memory number is also referred to as the total reserved memory number.

  In addition, a first hold indicator 25A and a second hold indicator 25B configured to include a plurality of LEDs are provided at predetermined positions on the game board 2, and the first hold indicator 25A indicates the number of LEDs lit. To display the first reserved memory number, and the second reserved indicator 25B displays the second reserved memory number according to the number of lit LEDs.

  Below the image display device 5, an ordinary winning ball device 6A and an ordinary variable winning ball device 6B are provided.

  The normal winning ball device 6A forms a first start winning opening that is maintained in a certain open state in which a game ball can always enter by a predetermined ball receiving member, for example. When a game ball enters the first start winning opening, a predetermined number of (for example, three) prize balls are paid out and the first special game can be started.

  The normal variable winning ball apparatus 6B is a normal electric accessory having a movable plate that is changed between a closed state that is a first projecting position and an open state that is a retracted position by a solenoid 81 (see FIG. 2) for the normal electric accessory. And forming a second start winning opening. In the normal variable winning ball apparatus 6B, for example, when the solenoid 81 is in an OFF state, the movable plate is in the first projecting position, so that the movable plate projects toward the game area 10, and the game ball enters the second starting prize opening. (The second start winning opening is also said to be closed). On the other hand, the normally variable winning ball apparatus 6B is opened so that the game ball can enter the second start winning opening when the movable plate is in the retreating position where the solenoid 81 is in the ON state. (The second start winning opening is also said to be open). When a game ball enters the second start winning opening, a predetermined number (for example, three) of prize balls are paid out and the second special game can be started.

  A special variable winning ball device 7 having a large winning opening is provided between the normal winning ball device 6A and the ordinary variable winning ball device 6B. The special variable winning ball apparatus 7 includes a large winning opening door that is opened and closed by a solenoid 82 (see FIG. 2), and the special winning opening as a specific area that changes between an open state and a closed state by the large winning opening door. Form.

  As an example, in the special variable winning ball device 7, when the solenoid 82 for the special winning opening door (for the special electric accessory) is in the OFF state, the large winning opening door closes the large winning opening and the game ball is large. You will not be able to enter (pass) the winning entrance. On the other hand, in the special variable winning ball apparatus 7, when the solenoid 82 for the special prize opening door is in the ON state, the special prize opening door opens the big prize opening, so that the game ball can easily enter the special prize opening. Become.

  When game balls enter the big prize opening, a predetermined number (for example, 14) of game balls are paid out as prize balls. When game balls enter the big prize opening, for example, more prize balls are paid out than when game balls enter the first start prize opening, the second start prize opening, and the general prize opening.

  The entry of a game ball into each winning opening including a general winning opening is also referred to as “winning”. In particular, winning at the starting port (first starting winning port, second starting winning port starting port) is also referred to as starting winning.

  A normal symbol display 20 is provided at a predetermined position of the game board 2 (on the left side of the game area 10 in the example shown in FIG. 1). As an example, the normal symbol display 20 is composed of 7-segment LEDs and the like, and variably displays normal symbols as a plurality of types of normal identification information different from the special symbols. A normal symbol is represented by a number indicating “0” to “9” or a lighting pattern such as “−”. The normal symbol may include a pattern in which all LEDs are turned off. Such variable display of normal symbols is also called a general game.

  On the left side of the image display device 5, a passing gate 41 through which a game ball can pass is provided. Based on the fact that the game ball has passed through the passing gate 41, the usual game is executed.

  On the right side of the normal symbol display 20, a general figure holding display 25C is provided. The general figure hold display unit 25C is configured to include, for example, four LEDs, and displays the number of general figure hold storage, which is the number of general figure games that are being executed, by the number of lighted LEDs.

  In addition to the above-described configuration, the surface of the game board 2 is provided with a windmill for changing the flow direction and speed of the game ball and a number of obstacle nails. In the lowermost part of the game area 10, there is provided an out-port for taking in a game ball that has not entered any of the winning ports.

  At the lower right position of the gaming machine frame 3, there is provided a hitting operation handle (operation knob) 30 that is operated by a player or the like to launch a game ball toward the game area 10 by a hitting ball launching device.

  At a predetermined position of the gaming machine frame 3 below the gaming area 10, a game ball paid out as a prize ball or a game ball lent out by a predetermined ball lending machine is held so as to be supplied to a ball striking device ( A striking ball supply tray (upper plate) for storage) is provided. Below the upper plate, there is provided a hitting ball supply plate (lower plate) from which prize balls are paid out when the upper plate is full.

  At a predetermined position of the gaming machine frame 3 below the gaming area 10, a stick controller 31A that can be held and tilted by the player is attached. The stick controller 31A is provided with a trigger button that can be pressed by the player. The operation on the stick controller 31A is detected by the controller sensor unit 35A (see FIG. 2).

  A push button 31B is provided at a predetermined position of the gaming machine frame 3 below the gaming area 10 so that the player can perform a predetermined instruction operation by a pressing operation or the like. An operation on the push button 31B is detected by a push sensor 35B (see FIG. 2).

  In the pachinko gaming machine 1, the stick controller 31 </ b> A and the push button 31 </ b> B are provided as detection means for detecting the player's operation (operation, etc.), but other detection means may be provided.

(Outline of game progress)
A game ball is launched toward the game area 10 by a rotation operation by the player to the hitting operation handle 30 provided in the pachinko gaming machine 1. When the game ball passes through the passing gate 41, a normal game by the normal symbol display 20 is started. In the case where the game ball passes through the passage gate 41 during the previous execution of the usual game, etc. (when the game ball passes through the passage gate 41 but the usual game based on the passage cannot be executed immediately). The usual game based on the passage is suspended up to a predetermined upper limit number (for example, 4).

  In this ordinary game, if a specific ordinary symbol (a symbol per ordinary symbol) is stopped and displayed, the display result of the ordinary symbol becomes “per ordinary symbol”. On the other hand, if a normal symbol other than the symbols per ordinary symbol (ordinary symbol losing symbol) is stopped and displayed as the fixed ordinary symbol, the display result of the ordinary symbol becomes “ordinary symbol losing”. When the “normal hit” is reached, an opening control is performed to open the normally variable winning ball apparatus 6B for a predetermined period (the second start winning opening is opened).

  When a game ball enters the first start winning opening formed in the normal winning ball device 6A, the first special figure game by the first special symbol display device 4A is started.

  When the game ball enters the second start winning opening formed in the normal variable winning ball device 6B, the second special symbol game by the second special symbol display device 4B is started.

  If a game ball enters (wins) a start winning opening during a period during which a special figure game is being executed, or a period in which it is controlled to a big hit gaming state or a small hit gaming state (described later) In the case where the special game based on the start prize cannot be immediately executed), the special game based on the entry is suspended until a predetermined upper limit number (for example, 4).

  In a special game, if a specific special symbol (a jackpot symbol, for example, “7”, the actual symbol differs depending on the jackpot type to be described later) is stopped and displayed as a special symbol, it will be a “hit” symbol. If a predetermined special symbol different from (a small hit symbol, for example, “2”) is stopped and displayed, “small hit” is obtained. In addition, if a special symbol (losing symbol, for example, “-”) different from the big hit symbol or the small winning symbol is stopped and displayed, it is “lost”.

  After the display result in the special figure game becomes “big hit”, the big hit gaming state is controlled as an advantageous state advantageous to the player. After the display result in the special figure game becomes “small hit”, the game is controlled to the small hit gaming state.

  In the big hit game state, the player can obtain a prize ball by causing the game ball to enter the big prize opening. Therefore, the big hit gaming state is an advantageous state for the player. The greater the number of rounds in the big hit gaming state, and the longer the opening upper limit period, the more advantageous for the player.

  Note that a “big hit” type is set for the big hit. For example, a number of types of opening of the big prize opening (number of rounds and opening upper limit period) and gaming state after the big hit gaming state (described later, normal state, short-time state, probability change state, etc.) are prepared, and depending on them Type is set. As the jackpot type, there may be provided a jackpot type that can obtain many prize balls, or a jackpot type that has few prize balls or hardly obtains prize balls.

  In the small hit gaming state, the special winning opening formed by the special variable winning ball apparatus 7 is opened in a predetermined opening mode. For example, in the small hit game state, the same opening mode as the big hit game state in the case of some big hit types (the number of times of opening of the big prize opening is the same as the number of rounds, and the closing timing of the big prize opening is also the same. Etc.), the grand prize opening is opened. Similar to the big hit type, the “small hit” may be provided with the small hit type.

  After the big hit gaming state is ended, depending on the big hit type, it may be controlled to a short time state or a probable change state.

  In the short-time state, control (short-time control) is executed to shorten the average special figure change time (period during which the special figure is changed) compared to the normal state. In the short-time state, by reducing the average normal map change time (period in which the normal map is changed) from the normal state, or by improving the probability of “per normal map” in the normal game, than the normal state, Control (high opening control, high base control) that makes it easy for the game ball to enter the second start winning opening is also executed. The short-time state is a state advantageous for the player because the variation efficiency of the special symbol (especially the second special symbol) is improved.

  In the probability variation state (probability variation state), in addition to the time reduction control, probability variation control is executed in which the probability that the display result is “big hit” is higher than in the normal state. The probability variation state is a state that is more advantageous for the player because it is likely to be a “hit” in addition to the improvement of the variation efficiency of the special symbol.

  The short-time state or the probability change state continues until any one end condition such as that a predetermined number of special game has been executed and the next big hit game state has been established. A game whose end condition is that a predetermined number of special game has been executed is also referred to as a number of cuts (short time cut, number change probability change, etc.).

  The normal state is a gaming state other than a special state such as a big hit gaming state advantageous for the player, a short-time state, a probable change state, etc., and the display result in the ordinary game is “per ordinary figure”. The pachinko gaming machine 1 such as the probability and the probability that the display result in the special figure game is “big hit” is the initial setting state of the pachinko gaming machine 1 (for example, when a system reset is performed, a predetermined return after power-on) This is the same control as when the process was not executed.

  A state in which the probability variation control is being executed is also referred to as a high probability state, and a state in which the probability variation control is not being performed is also referred to as a low probability state. The state where the time reduction control is executed is also referred to as a high base state, and the state where the time reduction control is not executed is also referred to as a low base state. By combining these, it is said that the short-time state is a low-accuracy base state, the probability variation state is a high-accuracy high-base state, the normal state is a low-accuracy-low base state, and so on. The highly accurate state and the low base state are also referred to as a highly accurate low base state.

  After the small hit game state ends, the game state is not changed, and the game state before the display result of the special game is “small hit” is controlled continuously (however, “small hit” occurs) If the special figure game at the time is the special figure game of the predetermined number of times, the gaming state is naturally changed). It should be noted that there is no “small hit” as the display result of the special game.

  Note that the gaming state may change based on the fact that the game ball has passed a specific area (for example, a specific area in the big prize opening) during the big hit gaming state. For example, when the game ball passes through a specific area, the game ball may be controlled to be in a probable change state after the big hit game state.

In the pachinko gaming machine 1, various effects (effects for notifying the progress of the game or exciting the game) are executed according to the progress of the game. The production will be described below. The effect is performed by displaying various effect images on the image display device 5, but in addition to or instead of the display, audio output from the speakers 8L and 8R and / or the game effect lamp 9 This point may be performed by turning on / off the light, and operating the movable body of the movable effect device 400 described later.

  In the “left”, “middle”, and “right” decorative symbol display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R provided in the image display device 5, the first special game or the first game is produced as an effect executed in accordance with the progress of the game. Corresponding to the start of the 2 special figure game, the variable display of the decorative symbols is started. At the timing when the display result (also referred to as a fixed special symbol) is stopped and displayed in the first special symbol game or the second special symbol game, the fixed decorative symbol (a combination of three decorative symbols) that is the display result of the variable decorative symbol display ) Is also stopped (derived).

  In the period from the start of the variable display of the decorative design to the end thereof, the variable display mode of the decorative design may be a predetermined reach mode (reach is established). Here, the reach mode is a variable display for decorative symbols that have not been stopped yet when the decorative symbols stopped on the screen of the image display device 5 constitute a part of a jackpot combination described later. It is a mode that is continuing.

  In addition, a reach effect is executed in response to the above-described reach mode during variable display of decorative symbols. In the pachinko gaming machine 1, the ratio of the display result (the display result of the special figure game or the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern) according to the production mode becomes “big hit” (also called the big hit reliability or the big hit expectation). Different types of reach production are executed. Reach production includes, for example, normal reach and super reach with higher hit reliability than normal reach.

  When the display result of the special figure game is “big hit”, a predetermined decorative pattern that is a predetermined big hit combination is derived as a display result of variable display of decorative symbols on the screen of the image display device 5 (decoration) The display result of the variable display of the symbol is “big hit”). As an example, the same decorative symbols (for example, “7”, etc.) are stopped and displayed together on predetermined active lines in the “left”, “middle”, and “right” decorative symbol display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R. .

  In the case of “probable big hit”, which is controlled to the probable change state after the big hit gaming state, odd numbers of decorative symbols (for example, “7”, etc.) are all stopped and displayed, and after the big hit gaming state is finished, In the case of a “non-probable big hit (normal big hit)” that is not controlled, an even number of decorative symbols (for example, “6”, etc.) may be stopped and displayed together. In this case, odd-numbered decorative symbols are also referred to as probability variation symbols, and even-numbered decorative symbols are also referred to as non-probable variation symbols (normal symbols). After reaching the reach mode with a non-probable variable symbol, a promotion effect that finally becomes a “probable big hit” may be executed.

  When the display result of the special game is “small hit”, as a display result of variable display of decorative symbols on the screen of the image display device 5, a fixed decorative symbol (for example, “ 1 3 5 "etc.) is derived (the display result of the variable display of the decorative symbol is" small hit "). As an example, the decorative symbols constituting the chance eye are stopped and displayed on the predetermined effective lines in the “left”, “middle”, and “right” decorative symbol display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R. In addition, when the display result of the special figure game is “big hit” of some big hit types (big hit type of big hit gaming state in the same manner as the small hit gaming state), and when it is “small hit” A common fixed decorative symbol may be derived and displayed.

  When the display result of the special figure game is “losing”, the decorative display variable display mode is not the reach mode, but the non-reach combination fixed display pattern (“ (Also referred to as “non-reach lose”) may be stopped (the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern may be “non-reach lose”). Further, when the display result is “losing”, after the decorative display variable display mode becomes the reach mode, the predetermined reach combination (“reach loss”) that is not a big hit combination is displayed as the variable display display result of the decorative design. In other cases, the fixed decorative symbol (also referred to as “definitely”) is stopped and displayed (the display result of the variable display of the decorative symbol is “reach lose”).

  The effects that can be executed by the pachinko gaming machine 1 include displaying the variable display corresponding display (hold display or active display). As other effects, for example, a notice effect for notifying the jackpot reliability is executed during variable display of decorative symbols. The notice effect includes a notice effect for notifying the big hit reliability in the variable display being executed, and a pre-read notice effect for notifying the big hit reliability in the variable display before execution (variable display for which execution is suspended). As the pre-reading notice effect, an effect of changing the display mode of the variable display compatible display (hold display or active display) to a mode different from the normal mode may be executed.

  Further, in the image display device 5, by temporarily stopping the decorative design during the variable display of the decorative design and then restarting the variable display, the single variable display is made to appear as a plurality of variable displays in a pseudo manner. A pseudo-continuous effect may be executed.

  Even during the big hit game state, the big hit effect for informing the big hit game state is executed. As the big hit effect, an effect for notifying the number of rounds or a promotion effect indicating that the value of the big hit gaming state may be executed. In addition, during the small hit game state, the small hit effect during the small hit game state is executed. In addition, the big hit game in the small hit game state and a part of the big hit type (a big hit type of the big hit gaming state in the same manner as the small hit gaming state, for example, a big hit type in which the subsequent gaming state is a high probability state) By executing a common effect with the state, the player may not know whether the current state is the small hit game state or the big hit game state. In such a case, a common effect is executed after the end of the small hit gaming state and after the end of the big hit gaming state, so that it is not possible to identify whether the state is a high probability state or a low probability state. May be.

  Further, for example, when a special game or the like is not being executed, a demonstration (demonstration) image is displayed on the image display device 5 (a customer waiting demonstration effect is executed).

The main board 11 includes a game control microcomputer 100, a switch circuit 110, a solenoid circuit 111, and the like.

  The game control microcomputer 100 mounted on the main board 11 is, for example, a one-chip microcomputer, which includes a ROM (Read Only Memory) 101, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 102, a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 103, and the like. And a random number circuit 104 and an I / O (Input / Output port) 105.

  The CPU 103 performs a process for controlling the progress of the game (a process for realizing the function of the main board 11) by executing a program stored in the ROM 101. At this time, various data stored in the ROM 101 (data such as later-described variation patterns, later-described effect control commands, and various tables referred to when making various determinations described later) are used, and the RAM 102 is used as the main memory. . The RAM 102 is a backup RAM in which a part or all of the RAM 102 is stored for a predetermined period even when power supply to the pachinko gaming machine 1 is stopped. Note that all or a part of the program stored in the ROM 101 may be expanded in the RAM 102 and executed on the RAM 102.

  Further, the CPU 103 determines whether or not there is a first start prize or a second start prize. If there is a prize, a random number value for special figure display result judgment, jackpot type judgment, fluctuation pattern judgment, etc. Are extracted and stored in the highest rank of empty entries in the first special figure reservation storage unit or the second special figure reservation storage unit, and the start winning process is executed.

  Further, the CPU 103 determines whether or not to start the special game based on the presence / absence of the hold data stored in the first special figure hold storage unit or the second special figure hold storage unit, and the special figure display result. A special decision that determines (predetermines) whether or not the variation display result of a special symbol or production symbol is to be a “hit” based on numerical data indicating a random number for judgment before the variation display result is derived and displayed. The symbol normal process is executed. That is, when starting the variation display of the special figure game, the CPU 103 determines whether or not to derive and display the jackpot display result as the display result of the variation display based on the random number value stored when the start winning occurs. Processing to determine (lottery) is executed.

  The random number circuit 104 counts numerical data indicating various random number values (game random numbers) used for controlling the progress of the game in an updatable manner. The game random number may be updated by CPU 103 executing a predetermined computer program (updated by software).

  The I / O 105 includes, for example, an input port to which various signals (detection signals described later) are input, and various signals (the first special symbol display device 4A, the second special symbol display device 4B, the normal symbol display device 20, the first hold). And an output port for transmitting a signal for controlling (driving) the display hold device 25B, the second hold display device 25B, the general-purpose hold display device 25C, etc.

  The switch circuit 110 is configured to detect detection signals (game balls pass or not) from various switches for detecting a game ball (gate switch 21, start port switch (first start port switch 22A and second start port switch 22B), count switch 23). A detection signal indicating that the switch has entered and the switch is turned on is taken in and transmitted to the game control microcomputer 100. Through the transmission of the detection signal, the passing or entry of the game ball is detected.

  The solenoid circuit 111 sends a solenoid drive signal (for example, a signal for turning on the solenoid 81 or the solenoid 82) from the game control microcomputer 100 to the solenoid 81 for the ordinary electric accessory or the solenoid 82 for the grand prize opening door. To transmit.

  The main board 11 (game control microcomputer 100) sends an effect control command (a command for designating (notifying) the progress of the game) according to the progress of the game as part of the control of the progress of the game. 12 is supplied. The effect control command output from the main board 11 is relayed by the relay board 15 and supplied to the effect control board 12. The production control command includes, for example, various determination results on the main board 11 (for example, a display result of a special figure game (including a jackpot type), a variation pattern used when the special figure game is executed (details will be described later) )), A game status (for example, start and end of variable display, open status of a big prize opening, occurrence of winning, number of reserved memories, gaming state), a command specifying an error, and the like.

  The production control board 12 is a sub-side control board independent of the main board 11, receives production control commands, and produces productions (various productions according to the progress of the game) based on the received production control commands. (Including various notifications such as driving of the movable body of the movable effect device 400, error notification, notification of power failure recovery, etc.).

  On the effect control board 12, an effect control CPU 120, a ROM 121, a RAM 122, a display control unit 123, a random number circuit 124, and an I / O 125 are mounted.

  The effect control CPU 120 executes a program stored in the ROM 121 to execute an effect together with the display control unit 123 (a process for realizing the above-described function of the effect control board 12 and an effect to be executed). Including the determination of At this time, various data (data such as various tables) stored in the ROM 121 is used, and the RAM 122 is used as a main memory.

  The effect control CPU 120 displays the execution of the effect based on detection signals from the controller sensor unit 35A and the push sensor 35B (signals output when an operation by the player is detected and indicating the operation content as appropriate). The control unit 123 may be instructed.

  The display control unit 123 includes a VDP (Video Display Processor), a CGROM (Character Generator ROM), a VRAM (Video RAM), and the like, and executes an effect based on an execution instruction from the effect control CPU 120.

  The display control unit 123 causes the image display device 5 to display the effect image by supplying the image display device 5 with a video signal corresponding to the effect to be executed based on the effect execution instruction from the effect control CPU 120. The display control unit 123 further supplies a sound designation signal (a signal for designating the sound to be output) to the sound control board 13 in order to perform sound output synchronized with the display of the effect image and turn on / off the game effect lamp 9. Or a lamp signal (a signal designating the lighting / extinguishing mode of the lamp) is supplied to the lamp control board 14. In addition, the display control unit 123 supplies a signal for causing various LEDs as the light emitting means of the light emitting effect device 500 to emit light, or a signal for operating the movable body of the movable effect device 400 or the movable object of the movable effect device 400 or the This is supplied to a drive circuit that drives the movable body of the movable effect device 400.

  The audio control board 13 is equipped with various circuits for driving the speakers 8L and 8R, drives the speakers 8L and 8R based on the sound designation signal, and outputs the audio designated by the sound designation signal from the speakers 8L and 8R. Let

To do. In this way, the display control unit 123 controls audio output and lamp on / off.

  Note that sound output, lamp on / off control (sound designation signal, lamp signal supply, etc.), control of the movable body 410 of the movable effect device 400 (supply of a signal for operating the movable body 410 of the movable effect device 400, etc.) ) May be executed by the production control CPU 120.

  The random number circuit 124 counts numerical data indicating various random values (effect random numbers) used for executing various effects in an updatable manner. The effect random number may be updated (updated by software) when the effect control CPU 120 executes a predetermined computer program.

  For example, the I / O 125 mounted on the effect control board 12 transmits an input port for receiving an effect control command transmitted from the main board 11 and the like, and various signals (video signal, sound designation signal, ramp signal). Output port.

  Substrates other than the main board 11 such as the effect control board 12, the sound control board 13, and the lamp control board 14 are also referred to as sub-boards. A plurality of sub-boards may be provided for each function as in the pachinko gaming machine 1, or one sub-board may be configured to have a plurality of functions.

(Progress of games, progress of production, etc.)
A game medium (game ball) is launched toward the game area 10 by a player's rotation operation on the hitting operation handle provided in the pachinko gaming machine 1.

(Progress of games controlled by main board 11)
When the game ball flowing down the game area 10 passes through the passing gate 41, a general game (variable display of normal symbols) is started. In addition, when another general game is already being executed, or during the following opening control, the general game cannot be started (when the start condition is not satisfied), and the maximum number of games is limited to 4 Execution is deferred. The held ordinary game is executed when a start condition for starting the ordinary game is satisfied (for example, no other ordinary game is being executed and no release control is being performed). If the game ball passes through the passing gate 41 when the number of usual reserved memories reaches the upper limit, the number of ordinary reserved memories does not increase and the passage is invalidated.

  The variable display results that are stopped and displayed in the ordinary game include a symbol per symbol (for example, a common symbol such as “7”) and a common symbol losing symbol (for example, a common symbol such as “−”). . When the symbol per symbol is stopped (derived), the variable display result is “per symbol”. The case where the usual figure losing symbol is stopped (derived) is when the variable display result is “general figure losing”.

  In the case of “per normal”, an opening control (the second start winning opening is opened) is performed in which the movable blade piece of the normal variable winning ball apparatus 6B is tilted for a predetermined period. The opening control is not performed in the case of “ordinary loss”.

  When the game ball that has flowed down the game area 10 enters the first start winning opening formed in the normal winning ball device 6A, the first special game is started. Further, when the game ball enters the second start winning opening formed in the normal variable winning ball apparatus 6B, the second special game is started. When the special figure game cannot be started (when the start condition is not satisfied), such as when another special figure game is already being executed or the game is controlled to the big hit game state described later, each of the four special figure games is four. Execution of the special figure game is suspended with the above as an upper limit. The reserved special figure game is executed when a start condition capable of starting the special figure game is satisfied (other special figure games are not executed and are not in the big hit gaming state, etc.).

  When the game ball enters the first start winning opening when the first special figure reserved memory number reaches the upper limit value, the first special figure reserved memory number does not increase and the entry is invalidated ( There may be a prize ball). When the game ball enters the second start winning opening when the second special figure reserved memory number reaches the upper limit value, the second special figure reserved memory number does not increase and the entry is invalidated ( There may be a prize ball).

  The entry (winning) of a game ball that increases the number of first special figure reserved memories into the first starting winning opening is also referred to as a first starting winning. The entry (winning) of the game ball that increases the second special figure reserved memory number into the second starting winning opening is also referred to as a second starting winning. These winnings are collectively referred to simply as starting winnings.

  The variable display results stopped and displayed in the special figure game include a jackpot symbol (for example, a special symbol such as “3” and “7”) and a lost symbol (for example, a special symbol such as “−”). . When the jackpot symbol is stopped (displayed), the variable display result is “big jackpot”. The lost symbol is stopped (derived) when the variable display result is “lost”.

  When the variable display result of the first special figure game or the second special figure game is “big hit” (specific display result), the big hit gaming state is controlled as an advantageous state advantageous to the player. When the variable display result is “losing”, it is not controlled to the big hit gaming state.

  In the big hit gaming state, the special winning opening formed by the special variable winning ball apparatus 7 is in an open state. The open state is until the earlier timing of an elapse timing of a predetermined period (for example, 29 seconds) or a timing until the number of game balls that have entered the winning prize opening reaches a predetermined number (for example, 9). Will continue. Such an open state is called a round game (also simply called “round”). In the big hit game state, the round game is repeatedly executed until a predetermined upper limit number of times (for example, “15 times”) is reached (in the period other than the round game, the big prize opening is closed).

  In the “big hit”, the big hit types “non-probability change” and “probability change” are set. When the big hit type is “non-probable change”, the big hit symbol “3” is stopped and displayed. When the big hit type is “probability change”, the big hit symbol of “7” is stopped and displayed.

  The “big hit” when the big hit type is “probable change” may be called “probable big hit”, and the “big hit” when the big hit type is “non-probable change” may be called “non-probable big hit”. In addition, the big hit gaming state based on “probability big hit” may be referred to as “probability big hit gaming state”. Further, the big hit gaming state based on the “non-probable big hit game” may be referred to as “non-probable big hit game state”.

  After the probable big hit game state is finished, the probability that the variable display result is “big hit” (big hit probability) is controlled to be a probable state where the probability is higher than the normal state. The probability variation state continues until the next jackpot gaming state is started.

  After the probable big hit game state or the non-probable big hit game state ends, the average variable display time (variable display period) is controlled to be short when the normal state is shorter than the normal state. In the short-time state, one of the end conditions is established first, that is, the predetermined number of times (in this embodiment, 100 times) the special game is executed and the next big hit game state is started. Continue until you do.

  In the short-time state, the normally variable winning ball apparatus 6B is opened and closed in an advantageous change mode in which a game ball is likely to enter the second start winning opening as compared with a non-short-time state that is not in a short time state such as a normal state. It may be changed. For example, the control to make the change time of the normal symbol in the normal game (the variable display period of the normal figure, also referred to as the normal change time) shorter than in the normal state, or variable display in each normal game What is necessary is just to change the normal variable winning ball apparatus 6B between the open state and the closed state in an advantageous change mode by controlling the probability that the result is “per hit” as compared with the normal state. Such control is referred to as high opening control (also referred to as “time reduction control” or “high base control”). By controlling in such a short time state, the time required until the next variable display result becomes “big hit” is shortened, and the gaming state becomes more advantageous to the player than the normal state.

  The normal state is an advantageous state such as a big hit gaming state, a gaming state other than a state advantageous to the player such as a short-time state, a probability variation state, etc. The pachinko gaming machine 1 such as the probability of “winning” and the probability that the variable display result in the special game is “big hit” is the initial setting state of the pachinko gaming machine 1 (for example, when a system reset is performed) The state is controlled in the same manner as when a predetermined return process is not executed after the input.

  The short time state is also referred to as “high base”, and the gaming state that is not in the short time state is also referred to as “low base” or “non-short time state”. The probability variation state is also referred to as “high probability”, and the gaming state that is not the probability variation state is also referred to as “low probability”, “non-probability variation”, or the like.

(Progress of game controlled by production control board 12)
In the “left”, “middle”, and “right” decorative symbol display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R provided in the image display device 5, this corresponds to the start of the first special game or the second special game. Then, variable display of decorative symbols (this is also a kind of effect) is started. At the timing when the variable display result (also referred to as a fixed special symbol) is stopped and displayed in the first special symbol game or the second special graphic game, the fixed decorative symbol (variable display result) becomes a variable decorative display result (variable display result). A combination of three decorative symbols) is also stopped (derived).

  In the period from the start of the variable display of the decorative design to the end thereof, the variable display mode of the decorative design may become a predetermined reach mode (reach is established). Here, the reach mode refers to a decorative design (“reach variation” that is not yet stopped when the decorative design that is stopped and displayed on the screen of the image display device 5 forms a part of the jackpot combination described later. "Design" is also a display mode in which fluctuation continues.

  In this embodiment, the reach effect is executed in response to the reach mode during the variable display. As reach production, normal reach, super reach A, and super reach B having different production modes are prepared. In this embodiment, the jackpot expectation is higher in the order of super reach B> super reach A> normal reach.

  The big hit expectation is, for example, the ratio at which the variable display result of the special figure game is “big hit”, and is also the ratio at which the display result of the variable display of the decorative symbol is “big hit”.

  When the variable display result of the special figure game is “big hit”, a fixed decorative pattern that is a predetermined big hit combination is derived and displayed on the screen of the image display device 5 as a display result of variable display of the decorative pattern. (The display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern is “big hit”). As an example, the same decorative pattern (for example, “7” for probability variation big hit, non-probable big hit, on the predetermined effective line in the “left”, “middle”, “right” decorative symbol display areas 5L, 5C, 5R. "6" etc.) are all displayed at the same time.

  When the variable display result is “losing”, the fixed display pattern of the non-reach combination is stopped and displayed as the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern, instead of the variable display mode of the decorative pattern. There is. In addition, when the variable display result is “losing”, after the variable display mode of the decorative pattern becomes the reach mode, the predetermined reach combination (“reach loss combination”) that is not a big hit combination is displayed as the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern. ”) May be stopped and displayed.

  The effect control CPU 120 is capable of executing various effects related to the game such as decorative pattern change display control and notice effect based on the effect control command (control information) transmitted from the game control microcomputer 100. .

  Note that the announcement control executed by the production control CPU 120 during the variable display of decorative symbols includes, for example, a jackpot announcement effect that suggests the possibility of a big hit, a reach announcement that suggests whether or not to reach, and a stop symbol Multiple notices that are executed at the start of variable display or when reach is established, such as a stop symbol notice to notify, a latent notice to notify whether or not the game state is a probability variation state (whether or not it is latent) Including.

  Further, in the present embodiment, as various effects including the above notice, a movable body effect by the movable body of the movable effect device 400 and a combined effect by the speakers 8L and 8R and the game effect lamp 9 can be executed. These various effects are executed, for example, at a predetermined timing during variable display, or at a timing when the player operates the stick controller 31A or the push button 31B. In the present embodiment, an effect using the movable effect device 400 is executed when super reach is executed.

Therefore, when the second guided portions 442L and 442R are guided from the first guide portion 452A to the second guide portion 452B, the slide members 440L and 440R slide and move toward the left and right sides so as to be separated from each other. Therefore, the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R rotate around the second rotation shafts 416L and 416R.

  Further, the left and right second guide holes 452L and 452R are formed in the same shape, and the left and right first guide portions 452A and the second guide portions 452B have a corresponding positional relationship. That is, the left and right first movable parts 410L and the second movable part 410R rotate around the second rotation shafts 416L and 416R at the same timing when moving in the vertical direction.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 9C and 9D, the first guide holes 451L and 451R and the second guide holes 452L and 452R are used while the movable body 410 moves from the origin position to the intermediate position. The first guided portions 432L and 432R are guided by the first guide portions 451A of the first guide holes 451L and 451R, and the second guided portions 442L and 442L are guided by the first guide portions 452A of the second guide holes 452L and 452R. When 442R is guided and the movable body 410 moves from the intermediate position to the effect position, the first guided portions 432L and 432R are guided to the second guide portions 451B of the first guide holes 451L and 451R, and the second The second guided portions 442L and 442R are guided by the second guide portions 452B of the guide holes 452L and 452R.

(Operational mode of movable body 410)
Next, the operation | movement aspect of the movable body 410 is demonstrated based on FIGS. 10A is a schematic rear view showing a state where the movable body is at the origin position, and FIG. 10B is a schematic side view showing a state where the movable body is at the origin position. 11A is a schematic rear view showing a state where the movable body has passed the intermediate position, and FIG. 11B is a schematic side view showing a state where the movable body has passed the intermediate position. 12A is a schematic rear view showing a state where the movable body is in the effect position, and FIG. 12B is a schematic side view showing a state where the movable body is in the effect position.

  As shown in FIG. 10, in a state where the movable body 410 is located at the origin position, the movable bodies 425L and 425R are located at lower positions below the guide shafts 420L and 420R. The first guided portions 432L and 432R are located at the lower ends of the first guide holes 451L and 451R, and the second guided portions 442L and 442R are located at the lower ends of the second guide holes 452L and 452R. Further, the movable body 410 has a first movable portion 410L and a second movable portion 410R that are centered on the second rotation shafts 416L and 416R on the third movable portion 410C side in the rear view (front view). The third movable portion 410C is tilted so as to be positioned below the end portion, and the left and right third rotation shafts 415L and 415R are positioned substantially on the horizontal line. The movable portion 410R and the third movable portion 410C are in a first state in which they stand up substantially vertically.

  As described above, the movable body 410 includes the first movable portion 410L that is pivotally supported so that the left end is pivotable about the second pivot shaft 416L that faces in the front-rear direction with respect to the left movable body 425L, and the right movable body 425R. In contrast, the second movable portion 410R whose right end is pivotally supported around the second rotation shaft 416R facing in the front-rear direction, the right end of the first movable portion 410L, and the left end of the second movable portion 410R are first. 3rd movable part 410C pivotally supported via 3 rotating shafts 415L and 415R. That is, the third movable portion 410C is supported in a state of being supported by the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R supported by separate moving bodies 425L and 425R, respectively. In the rear view (front view), it is bent upward in a generally “<” shape.

  Here, when the guide shafts 420L and 420R are rotated in the first direction by the lifting motors 421L and 421R, the moving bodies 425L and 425R are raised. While the movable body 410 moves from the origin position to the intermediate position as the moving bodies 425L and 425R rise, the first guided portions 432L and 432R are moved upward by the first guide portions 451A of the first guide holes 451L and 451R. Since the second guided portions 442L and 442R are guided upward by the first guide portions 452A of the second guide holes 452L and 452R, the movable body 410 has the first rotation shafts 430L and 430R, Ascending while maintaining the standing posture without rotating about the second rotation shafts 416L and 416R.

  When the first guided portions 432L and 432R pass through the fourth guide portions 451D of the first guide holes 451L and 451R, the first guided portions 432L and 432R are guided slightly rearward and upward. As the movable body 410 rotates about the first rotation shafts 430L and 430R, the upper portion of the movable body 410 slightly tilts backward.

  As described above, the first guided portions 432L and 432R are moved by the second guide portion 451B as will be described later by slightly tilting the upper portion of the movable body 410 backward while being raised in the first state of the standing posture. The impact when the movable body 410 starts to rotate can be suppressed by being guided rearward.

  In addition, for example, when performing a turning operation in which the movable body 410 is reciprocated between the origin position and the intermediate position in a notice effect or the like, the first guided portions 432L and 432R pass through the fourth guide portion 451D. By moving the movable body 410 up and down, it is possible to slightly move back and forth around the first rotation shafts 430L and 430R while moving up and down, so that the movement can be complicated.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 11, while the movable body 410 moves from the intermediate position to the effect position, the first guided portions 432L and 432R are moved backward and upward by the second guide portions 451B of the first guide holes 451L and 451R. The first guided portions 432L and 432R rotate about the first rotation shafts 430L and 430R in the clockwise direction when viewed from the right side, so that the first rotation shafts 430L and 430R It turns clockwise when viewed from the right. Then, when the connecting members 417L and 417R rotate together with the first rotation shafts 430L and 430R, the movable body 410 rotates about the first rotation shafts 430L and 430R clockwise as viewed from the right side. Then, the upper part tilts backward.

  On the other hand, the second guided portions 442L and 442R are guided obliquely upward by the second guide portions 452B of the second guide holes 452L and 452R, so that the left and right slide members 440L and 440R each have a first rotation shaft 430L. , 430R and slide outward. Then, the left and right slide members 440L and 440R slide and move away from each other, whereby the second rotation shaft 416L of the first movable portion 410L and the second rotation of the second movable portion 410R are connected via the connecting members 417L and 417R. The shaft 416R moves away from each other.

  Here, since the left and right first movable parts 410L and the second movable part 410R are connected by the third movable part 410C, the second movable shafts 416L and 416R are centered by being pulled away from each other. As the end on the third movable portion 410C side moves upward, and the first movable portion 410L, the second movable portion 410R, and the third movable portion 410C change from the bent state to the extended state. Thus, the third movable portion 410C moves upward with respect to the moving bodies 425L and 425R.

  As described above, the slide member 440L having the second guided portions 442L and 442R in which the left and right first movable portions 410L and second movable portions 410R are guided by the second guide portions 452B of the second guide holes 452L and 452R. , 440R is pulled in a direction away from each other, the second guide portion 452B is subjected to a force for lifting the third movable portion 410C upward with respect to the moving bodies 425L, 425R, so that the second guide holes 452L, 452R The second guided portions 442L and 442R are strongly pressed against the inner edge, but the slide members 440L and 440R are urged outwardly (direction in which the second guided portions 442L and 442R are guided) by the compression spring 442, respectively. Thus, friction generated between the second guide holes 452L and 452R and the second guided portions 442L and 442R can be reduced. , It is possible to prevent the lifting motor 421L during vertical movement, the 421R takes.

  Further, the interlocking gear portion 412L of the first movable portion 410L and the interlocking gear portion 412R of the second movable portion 410R are engaged with each other, so that one of the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R is rotated. Is directly transmitted to the other without passing through the third movable portion 410C, and the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R are interlocked, so that the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R are connected to the second movable portion 410R. It can be smoothly rotated about the rotation shafts 416L and 416R.

  The first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R are configured such that one of the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R is linked to the other, so that the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R are the first movable portion 410C and the second movable portion 410R Since the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R are interlocked so as to rotate about the same or substantially the same angle around the three rotation shafts 415L and 415R, the third movable portion 410C is moved to the left and right third rotation. The shafts 415L and 415R are lifted upward by the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R while maintaining a horizontal standing posture.

  The movable body 410 is pivotally supported by movable bodies 425L and 425R in which the left and right first movable portions 410L and second movable portions 410R are lifted and lowered by separate lift motors 421L and 421R, and the third movable portion 410C is Since one end of each of the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R is pivotally supported by two third rotation shafts 415L and 415R that are provided apart from each other on the left and right, the third movable portion 410C can be stably provided. On the other hand, when the left and right moving bodies 425L and 425R are moved together, the effect control CPU 120 synchronizes the drive control of the left and right lifting motors 421L and 421R.

  Therefore, for example, for some reason, one drive control timing is slightly delayed from the other, or the first guided portions 432L and 432R, the second guided portions 442L and 442R, and the moving bodies 425L and 425R are caught. When the timing at which the left and right first guided portions 432L and 432R are guided by the second guide portion 451B shifts and one of the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R rotates faster than the other, One of the left and right third rotation shafts 415L and 415R of the third movable portion 410C moves upward relative to the other, so that one of the left and right sides of the third movable portion 410C is inclined downward.

  However, even when one of the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R rotates faster than the other as described above, the first guided portions 432L and 432R and the second guided portions 442L and 442R are also provided. Regardless of the guide, the interlocking gear portions 412L and 412R can interlock the other of the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R, so that the third movable portion 410C can tilt to the left and right. It can be moved up so that there is no.

  That is, the interlocking gear part 412L of the first movable part 410L and the interlocking gear part 412R of the second movable part 410R are the third movable part 410C when the first movable part 410L and the second movable part 410R rotate. Is configured to interlock the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R so as to operate while maintaining the posture.

  As shown in FIG. 12, in a state where the movable body 410 has reached the effect position, the first guided portions 432L and 432R are positioned at the upper ends of the first guide holes 451L and 451R, and the second guided portions 442L and 442L, 442R is located at the upper end of the second guide holes 452L and 452R. In addition, the movable body 410 is positioned above the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R in the rear view (front view) than when the inner end portion on the third movable portion 410C side is in the first state. At the same time, the left and right third rotation shafts 415L and 415R are positioned substantially on the horizontal line, so that the third movable portion 410C is in an extended state, and the first movable portion 410L, the second movable portion 410R, and the third movable portion are viewed in side view. The upper portion of the portion 410C is in the second state tilting to the rear side.

  As described above, when the movable body 410 moves from the intermediate position to the effect position, the first rotation is performed such that the upper part is tilted rearward about the first rotation shafts 430L and 430R according to the upward movement. While performing the operation, the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R rotate about the second rotation shafts 416L and 416R, so that the third movable portion 410C maintains the posture and the moving body 425L, A second operation of moving upward with respect to 425R is performed.

  In other words, the movable body 410 rotates in different directions around two rotating shafts that intersect (orthogonal) each other in accordance with the upward movement, so that the single rotating shaft is centered in accordance with the upward movement. It is possible to operate in a more complicated manner than the rotating one.

  Further, the third movable portion 410C suspended by the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R that are pivotally supported by the moving bodies 425L and 425R driven by the left and right drive mechanism portions 405L and 405R are separately provided. Without being guided in the vertical direction by the guide member or the like, it can be moved in the vertical direction while maintaining the posture.

FIG. FIG. 17 is a front view showing the relationship between the panel board and the decorative body. 18 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line CC of FIG.

  The decorative bodies 515L and 515R including the decorative portions 515A and 515B are different in shape but have substantially the same mounting structure. Therefore, only the right decorative body 515R will be described below, and the left decorative body 515L will be described. Is omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 15, the decorative body 515R is formed to have a size capable of covering a part of the front side of the first LED boards 511L and 511R with a synthetic resin material having transparency, and is slightly below the center in the vertical direction. A hole 530 into which the passage gate 41 can be inserted is formed at the position. The front surface 515F of the decorative body 515R is provided with a decoration area E (area indicated by a halftone dot in FIG. 15A) that is decorated to resemble a predetermined character.

  The decorative region E may be configured by a decorative layer formed by painting or printing on at least the surface of the decorative body, or may be configured by a decorative layer formed by attaching a sheet, a film, or the like. May be. The decoration includes not only a pattern imitating a predetermined character as described above, but also a pattern, pattern, pattern, character (for example, model title) other than the character, a number, a symbol, and the like. The decoration also includes a colored portion that is simply colored in a predetermined color or an uneven portion that is three-dimensionally formed by molding or the like even if it is not colored.

  As shown in FIG. 15B in particular, the decorative body 515R has a three-dimensional shape by the front surface 515F being inclined frontward from the left side to the right side, and by forming uneven portions according to each part of the pattern. Is formed. In particular, in the present embodiment, a decoration is made in such a manner that the character faces obliquely left frontward when viewed from the front, and accordingly, the front surface 515F is inclined forward from the left side to the right side. It creates a feeling.

  Positioning portions 531A and 531B for determining the attachment position of the decorative body 515R with respect to the panel board 2A are formed on the upper and lower right sides of the decorative body 515R. The positioning portions 531A and 531B include a cylindrical protruding portion 532 protruding forward, a columnar positioning boss 533 protruding forward from a flat contact surface 532A formed on the front surface of the protruding portion 532, and And a mounting hole 534 of a screw N4 formed on the contact surface 532A. Although not particularly illustrated, the contact surfaces 532A of the positioning portions 531A and 531B are arranged at the same position in the front-rear direction, that is, on the same plane.

  Since these positioning portions 531A and 531B are provided in a part of the decoration region E, the contact surface 532A which is the front surface of the protruding portion 532 and the side peripheral surface of the protruding portion 532 are decorated. More specifically, since the decoration area E is provided in an area other than the specific decoration area SE (for example, an area corresponding to the face which is a character feature of the character), the decoration that is easily watched by the character is prevented from being damaged. Has been.

  In the present embodiment, the specific decoration area SE is exemplified as a portion corresponding to the face of the character drawn as decoration. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the specific decoration area SE is not limited thereto. Is not a portion corresponding to the face of the character drawn as a decoration as described above, as long as it is an area that the player wants to pay attention to in the decoration area E. For example, a unique decoration that makes it easy to identify a character Various changes can be made to the parts.

  Furthermore, the decoration area E is a first dimension L2 in which the separation dimension between the first decoration area E1 and the board surface plate 2A is shorter than the first dimension L1. 2 positioning areas E2 and positioning portions 531A and 531B are provided in the second decoration area E2. In other words, the positioning portions 531A and 531B can be provided without projecting greatly from the peripheral portion by being provided in the second decoration region E2 located in front of the first decoration region E1 on the front surface 515F. . In the present embodiment, the boundary position between the first decoration area E1 and the second decoration area E2 is a substantially central position in the left-right direction, but is not particularly limited and can be variously changed. .

  In addition, a light diffusion portion 540 capable of diffusing the light emitted from the first lens unit 513R is formed on the left edge portion of the decorative body 515R. As shown in FIGS. 16 and 17, positioning portions 531C similar to the positioning portions 531A and 531B are also formed on the decorative portions 515A and 515B so as to protrude forward.

  As shown in FIG. 16, the decorative bodies 515L and 515R configured in this way are attached to the back side of the board 2A of the game board 2 in a state of being integrally attached to the front left and right sides of the base member 510U. Specifically, a positioning hole 543 into which the positioning boss 533 can be fitted is formed at a position corresponding to the positioning portions 531A, 531B, and 531C on the back surface of the board surface plate 2A, and a screw hole into which the screw N4 is screwed. 544 is formed.

  Therefore, when attaching the decorative bodies 515L and 515R to the back surface of the board surface plate 2A, first, after positioning the positioning bosses 533 of the positioning portions 531A and 531B in the positioning holes 543 of the board surface plate 2A, the positioning portions 531A and 531A are positioned. 531B can be attached by screwing screws N4 attached from the back side into the attachment holes 534 of the 531B.

  As shown in FIGS. 17 and 18, in a state where the decorative bodies 515L and 515R are attached to the back surface of the board surface plate 2A, the contact surfaces 532A of the positioning portions 531A, 531B and 531C contact the back surface of the board surface plate 2A. Thus, the position of the decorative bodies 515L and 515R in the front-rear direction with respect to the board surface plate 2A is determined, and the positioning boss 533 is fitted into the positioning hole 543, so The position of the direction is determined.

  The base member 510U to which the decorative bodies 515L and 515R are attached is fixed to a back cover (not shown) provided so as to cover the back surface of the game board 2, while the decorative bodies 515L and 515R extending upward from the base member 510U are It is disposed in the vicinity of the back surface of the board surface plate 2A and is provided in contact with the back surface of the board surface plate 2A via the positioning portions 531A and 531B.

  As shown in FIG. 17, when the decorative bodies 515L and 515R are viewed from the front side, the decoration area E does not pass through the board 2A from the player side through the opening 2c formed in the board 2A. A first visual recognition area E3 and a second visual recognition area E4 visible from the player side through the board 2A. Thus, since the 2nd visual recognition area | region E4 arrange | positioned through the board | plate surface board 2A which consists of a permeable member through the back side of the board surface board 2A in the decoration area E can be visually recognized, Arrangement freedom is improved.

  In addition, the decorative bodies 515L and 515R are arranged in the vicinity of the back surface of the panel board 2A, so that the visibility of the decorative area E can be prevented from being lowered, while the upper portions of the decorative bodies 515L and 515R are attached to other members. Therefore, there is a high possibility that the upper part vibrates due to vibrations generated in the pachinko gaming machine 1 and comes into contact with the board surface plate 2A. When the decorative bodies 515L and 515R come into contact with the board surface plate 2A, the decoration applied to the decoration area E is scraped and the decoration is damaged, or the decoration bodies 515L and 515R and the board surface board 2A are damaged and the decoration area E is damaged. There is a possibility that visibility may be lowered.

  Therefore, as shown in FIG. 18, in the decorative bodies 515L and 515R, only the contact surfaces 532A of the positioning portions 531A and 531B provided to protrude forward in a part of the decorative region E are in contact with the back surface of the board surface plate 2A. Since the decoration area E other than the contact surface 532A is arranged so as to be spaced apart from the back surface of the board surface plate 2A, it is possible to prevent the decoration from being damaged.

  Further, the contact surfaces 532A of the positioning portions 531A and 531B are decorated by the contact surfaces 532A vibrating in the surface direction with respect to the back surface of the board surface plate 2A by fitting the positioning bosses 533 into the positioning holes 543. It is possible to prevent scraping, and furthermore, since the screw N4 is screwed into the screw hole 544, the contact surface 532A can be prevented from being separated from the back surface of the board surface plate 2A. Can be suitably suppressed.

  Further, since a part of the decorative bodies 515L and 515R can be directly positioned and attached to the board surface plate 2A, it is not necessary to separately provide a member for supporting the decorative bodies 515L and 515R.

  Further, the positioning portions 531A and 531B are provided in a part of the decoration area E. In other words, since the positioning portions 531A and 531B are also decorated, the positioning portions 531A and 531B are placed on the decoration area E by the player. Since it is not necessary to extend from the side to a place where it can be hidden from view, the structure of the decorative bodies 515L and 515R can be simplified.

  Further, since the positioning parts 531A and 531B are provided in the second visual recognition area E4, the positioning parts 531A and 531B can be made inconspicuous compared to the case where they are provided in the first visual recognition area E3. Furthermore, it can be made more inconspicuous by being provided in the vicinity of the guide rail 2b where the frequency of the game ball flowing down in the game area 10 in the second visual recognition area E4 is low.

  As shown in FIGS. 22 to 24, the lens cover 564 is formed by a synthetic resin material having transparency so as to cover the front surface 512F of the second LED substrate 512R. The lens cover 564 includes a light diffusing portion 564 </ b> A formed so that the surface thereof is uneven in a portion corresponding to the light emitting portion 561 </ b> D of the first inner lens 561, and a portion corresponding to the light emitting portion 562 </ b> F of the second inner lens 562. In addition, a light diffusing portion 564B formed to have an uneven surface, and a light diffusing portion 564C formed to have an uneven surface on the portion corresponding to the light emitting portion 563F of the third inner lens 563, Have.

  The light diffusion portions 564A, 564B, and 564C are formed so that the light from the light emitting portions 561D, 562F, and 563F can be emitted forward, the light diffusion portion 564B is located in front of the light diffusion portion 564A, and the light diffusion portion The light diffusion portions 564C are arranged at different positions in the front-rear direction so that the light diffusion portions 564C are located in front of the 564B. The light diffusing portions 564A, 564B, and 564C constitute second light emitting portions 503L and 503R (see FIG. 3).

  Further, non-transmission for preventing emission of light by attaching a non-transparent sheet between the light diffusion unit 564A and the light diffusion unit 564B and between the light diffusion unit 564B and the light diffusion unit 564C. The sex portions 564D and 564E are provided in an inclined manner.

  As shown in FIGS. 22 to 24, the decorative cover 565 is of a size that can cover areas other than the areas corresponding to the light diffusion portions 564A, 564B, 564C on the front surface of the lens cover 564 with a synthetic resin material having impermeable properties. Is formed. Since the decorative cover 565 covers the area corresponding to each of the second effect LEDs 521 to 523 from the front side, the light emitted forward from each of the second effect LEDs 521 to 523 is emitted forward through the lens cover 564. Thus, it is possible to suitably prevent the occurrence of spotlight.

  In the second lens units 514L and 514R configured as described above, the light diffusing portions 564A, 564B and 564C constituting the second light emitting portions 503L and 503R are streaked with each other when viewed from the front side. It is possible to emit light separately by the second effect LEDs 521 to 523 in parallel. Thus, when each light-diffusion part 564A, 564B, 564C arranged side by side when it sees from the front side is made to light-emit, several top type LED is arrange | positioned in the position corresponding to each light-diffusion part 564A, 564B, 564C. When the light is directly emitted from the back surface of each light diffusion portion 564A, 564B, 564C by the LED, the LED has high directivity of light, and therefore corresponds to each top type LED in each light diffusion portion 564A, 564B, 564C. There is a risk that the position emits light strongly, and so-called shining occurs.

  Therefore, the distance from each light diffusion portion 564A, 564B, 564C to each top type LED is increased, or the light diffusion portion is provided between each light diffusion portion 564A, 564B, 564C and each top type LED on the back side thereof. Although it is conceivable to disperse light by disposing a lens member having the above, if the distance is increased or the light is diffused, the luminance is likely to be lowered, and it is difficult to emit light strongly. Further, when the separation distance is increased, the thickness in the front-rear direction of the second lens units 514L and 514R is increased, which may make it difficult to dispose the game board 2 and the image display device 5.

  Therefore, as in the present embodiment, the respective light diffusion portions 564A, 564B, 564C corresponding to the respective second effect LEDs 521-523 provided on the front surface 512F of the second LED substrate 512R are arranged along the front surface 512F. When juxtaposed in the direction, the light diffusing sections 564A, 564B, 564C are arranged at different positions along the front surface 512F from the positions corresponding to the second effect LEDs 521-523, that is, the second effect LEDs 521-523. The first inner lens 561, the second inner lens 562, and the third inner lens 563 are arranged so as to overlap the light from the second effect LEDs 521 to 523 on the front surface 512F side. Each light diffusion unit 564A, 564B, 564C emits light by being guided in the direction along It is not necessary to dispose the LED at a position corresponding to, and the light guide distance from the LED to each light diffusion portion can be increased in the lateral direction without increasing the length dimension in the front-rear direction. It is possible to emit light with strong light so that the diffusing portion is not lit up and the luminance is not significantly reduced.

(Operational aspects of movable effect device 400 and light emission effect device 500)
Next, an example of operation modes of the movable effect device 400 and the light emission effect device 500 will be described with reference to FIG. 25A to 25D are explanatory diagrams illustrating examples of operation modes of the movable effect device and the light emission effect device.

  As shown in FIG. 25A, the movable body 410 of the movable effect device 400 is located at the origin position when the execution condition of the movable effect is not satisfied in the reach effect or the notice effect, and the light emitting effect device. The first light emitting units 501L, 501R, 502L, and 502R and the second light emitting units 503L and 503R in 500 are turned off or set to a predetermined color (for example, white) with low luminance when the execution condition of the light emission effect is not satisfied. Is lit.

  As shown in FIG. 25 (B), for example, when the execution condition of the movable effect is satisfied by temporarily stopping the third decorative symbol in the reach effect, the movable body 410 moves from the origin position toward the effect position. To start.

  As shown in FIG. 25C, when the movable body 410 reaches the effect position, the third movable portion 410C is disposed so as to overlap the front side of the decorative symbol temporarily stopped in the central decorative symbol display area 5C. In addition, the upper portion of the third movable portion 410C is brought close to or in contact with the rearward tilt toward the display area of the image display device 5. In addition, the effect display image X is displayed around the central decorative symbol, so that the third movable portion 410C can touch (act) the central decorative symbol and appear to be destroyed. .

  Then, as shown in FIG. 25D, the third movable portion 410C comes into contact with (acts on) the central decorative symbol and the decorative symbol is destroyed, whereby a symbol arrangement of 7 (a jackpot display result) is derived. In such a case, the execution conditions for the light emitting effects of the first light emitting units 501L, 501R, 502L, and 502R and the second light emitting units 503L and 503R of the light emitting effect device 500 are satisfied, and the first effect LEDs 520 and the second effects are obtained. When the LEDs 521 to 523 emit light, the first light emitting units 501L, 501R, 502L, and 502R and the second light emitting units 503L and 503R emit light in a specific color.

  As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention, the movable body 410 that is movable in the vertical direction and the first guided portions 432L and 432R of the movable body 410 can be guided. First guide holes 451L and 451R and second guide holes 452L and 452R capable of guiding the second guided portions 442L and 442R of the movable body 410 are provided, and the first guide holes 451L and 451R are provided on the movable body 410. The first guided portions 432L and 432R are guided so that the movable body 410 performs a first operation (for example, an operation of rotating about the first rotation shafts 430L and 430R) according to the movement in the vertical direction. The second guide holes 452L and 452R are provided in a second operation (for example, the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion) that are different from the first operation according to the movement of the movable body 410 in the vertical direction. 41 R is the second pivot shaft 416L, as the third movable portion 410C rotates about the 416R performs an operation) to increase the second guided portion 442L, guides the 442R.

  In this way, in accordance with the movement of the movable body 410 in the vertical direction, a complicated operation is performed by guiding the rotation about the two rotation axes facing each other in the direction intersecting each other. Therefore, the production effect can be enhanced.

  Specifically, when the first guided portions 432L and 432R are guided by the second guide portion 451B, the movable body 410 rotates in the vertical direction, and the second guided portions 442L and 442R guide to the second guide portion 452B. As a result, the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R of the movable body 410 rotate in the lateral direction. That is, since two types of motions having different motion modes can be performed according to the movement in the predetermined direction, it is possible to suitably enhance the effect.

  Further, two types of operations can be realized only by the lifting motors 421L and 421R without separately preparing drive sources for performing two types of operations having different operation modes.

  The first guided portions 432L and 432R and the second guided portions 442L and 442R are provided in different directions (for example, the first guided portions 432L and 432R protrude in the left-right direction). The second guided portions 442L and 442R protrude in the front-rear direction).

  In this way, the first guided portions 432L and 432R and the second guided portions 442L and 442R are guided in different directions, so that the movable body 410 can be stably operated.

  The first guide holes 451L and 451R guide the first guided portions 432L and 432R in the first direction (for example, the front-rear direction), and the second guide holes 452L and 452R serve as the second guided portions 442L. , 442R are guided in a second direction (for example, the front-rear direction) intersecting the first direction.

  By doing so, the first guided portions 432L and 432R and the second guided portions 442L and 442R are guided in different directions, so that the movable body 410 can be operated stably.

  In addition, when the movable body 410 moves from the intermediate position to the effect position, the first movement rotates so that the upper part is tilted rearward about the first rotation shafts 430L and 430R according to the upward movement. The first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R are rotated about the second rotation shafts 416L and 416R while performing the above, so that the movable bodies 425L and 425R are maintained while maintaining the posture of the third movable portion 410C. The second operation of moving upward is performed.

  In this way, when the movable body 410 moves up and down, two types of motions (first motion and second motion) with different motion modes are performed together, so that the motion of the movable body 410 becomes more complicated. Can show.

  The movable body 410 is movable between the origin position and the effect position, and is provided so as to be movable between the origin corresponding position and the effect corresponding position with respect to the moving bodies 425L and 425R and the moving bodies 425L and 425R. Slide members 440L and 440R having second guided portions 442L and 442R, and the second guided portions 442L and 442R are provided in the second guide holes according to the movement of the movable body 410 from the origin position to the effect position. When guided by 452L and 452R, a compression spring 442 is provided as a biasing means that biases the slide members 440L and 440R toward the effect corresponding position.

  In this way, the slide members 440L and 440R are biased toward the direction in which the second guided portions 442L and 442R are guided by the second guide portions 452B of the second guide holes 452L and 452R (directions away from each other). Thus, when the second guided portions 442L and 442R start to be guided by the second guide portions 452B of the second guide holes 452L and 452R, the second guided portions 442L and 442R and the second guide holes 452L are started. , 452R, a large frictional force can be avoided, and the movable body 410 can be smoothly deformed from the first state to the second state.

  Further, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R that are movable in the vertical direction and the first movable portion 410L according to the movement in the vertical direction. A first guide means (for example, a second guide hole 452L, a second guided portion 442L) for guiding the second pivot shaft 416L to turn around the second pivot shaft 416L facing the direction perpendicular to the vertical direction; Second guide means (for example, a second guide hole 452R, for example) that guides the portion 410R to rotate about the second rotation shaft 416R that faces the direction intersecting the vertical direction in response to the vertical movement. A second guided portion 442R), a first movable portion 410L, and a third movable portion 410C pivotally supported by the second movable portion 410R. The first guide means rotates the first movable portion 410L. When the second guide means The second movable portion 410R guides the rotation, and when the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R are rotated, the first movable portion 410C is operated while maintaining its posture. An interlocking mechanism that interlocks the movable part 410L and the second movable part 410R (for example, an interlocking gear part 412L of the first movable part 410L and an interlocking gear part 412R of the second movable part 410R) is provided.

  By doing in this way, since the 3rd movable part 410C can be operated suitably, a production effect can be heightened. Specifically, even when the rotation timings of the left and right first movable portions 410L and the second movable portion 410R that are pivotally supported by the moving bodies 425L and 425R driven by the left and right drive mechanism portions 405L and 405R are shifted, The third movable portion 410C suspended by two axes on the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R can be moved in the vertical direction while maintaining the posture.

  Further, a guide member or the like for separately moving and guiding the third movable portion 410C suspended on two axes by the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R while maintaining the posture is provided. Instead, the third movable portion 410C can be stably moved in the vertical direction only by interlocking the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R.

  Further, since the other of the first movable part 410L and the second movable part 410R is linked to the other, the first movable part 410L and the second movable part 410R are connected to the third movable part 410C. The first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R are interlocked so as to rotate about the same or substantially the same angle about the three rotation shafts 415L and 415R. By doing in this way, the 3rd movable part 410C can be operated stably.

  Further, the first guide means (for example, the second guide hole 452L, the second guided portion 442L) guides the first movable portion 410L to rotate in the first direction (for example, clockwise in the rear view), In the second guide means (for example, the second guide hole 452R, the second guided portion 442R), the second movable portion 410R rotates in the second direction (for example, counterclockwise in the rear view) opposite to the first direction. Guide you to do. By doing in this way, the 3rd movable part 410C can be operated suitably.

  Further, a cover member 413 capable of covering an interlocking mechanism including the interlocking gear part 412L of the first movable part 410L and the interlocking gear part 412R of the second movable part 410R is provided.

  By doing in this way, it can prevent that members, such as wiring, enter between interlocking gear part 412L and interlocking gear part 412R.

  The interlocking mechanism includes an interlocking gear part 412L provided in the first movable part 410L and an interlocking gear part 412R provided in the second movable part 410R and meshing with the interlocking gear part 412R.

  By doing so, one of the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R is transmitted to the other, so that the first movable portion 410L and the second movable portion 410R are guided to the first guide. It can be smoothly interlocked regardless of the means and the second guiding means.

  Further, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment, a board surface plate 2A having transparency, and a decoration area E that is provided on the back side of the board surface plate 2A so as to be visible from the player side and is decorated. Decorative bodies 515L and 515R, and the decorative bodies 515L and 515R have positioning parts 531A and 531B for determining the position with respect to the board 2A, and the positioning parts 531A and 531B are provided in the decorative area E. It has been.

  By doing in this way, it can suppress that a decoration is impaired by positioning part 531A, 531B. Specifically, since the positioning portions 531A and 531B are also decorated, it is not necessary to extend the positioning portions 531A and 531B from the player side to a place where they can be hidden from the player side. The configuration of the decorative bodies 515L and 515R can be simplified.

  The positioning portions 531A and 531B are abutting surfaces 532A that abut against the board surface plate 2A and positioning bosses 533 that are formed to protrude forward from the abutting surface 532A and can be fitted into the positioning holes 543 formed in the board surface plate 2A. The decoration is applied to at least the contact surface 532A.

  In this way, the abutment surface 532A that abuts on the board surface plate 2A can be decorated, while the positioning boss 533 can suitably prevent the position deviation in the surface direction of the board surface plate 2A.

  Further, since the positioning portions 531A and 531B are provided outside the specific decoration area SE in the decoration area E, for example, the decoration of the specific decoration area SE such as an area corresponding to the face which is a character characteristic portion is impaired. Can be prevented.

  Further, since the areas other than the positioning portions 531A and 531B in the decoration area E are separated from the board surface plate 2A, it is possible to minimize damage to the decoration due to contact with the board surface board 2A.

  In addition, the decoration area E has a first dimension L1 that is a separation dimension with respect to the board surface plate 2A, and a second dimension L2 that is a separation distance between the first decoration area E1 and the board surface board 2A that is shorter than the first dimension L1. And the positioning portions 531A and 531B are provided in the second decoration region E2.

  By doing in this way, since positioning part 531A, 531B can be provided without projecting greatly, the part corresponding to positioning part 531A, 531B will protrude in decoration field E, and it may give a player a sense of incongruity. Can be suppressed.

  The decoration area E includes a first visual recognition area E3 that is visible from the player side without passing through the board surface plate 2A, a second visual recognition area E4 that is visible from the player side through the board surface board 2A, The positioning portions 531A and 531B are provided in the second visual recognition area E4.

  By doing in this way, positioning part 531A, 531B can be made not conspicuous compared with the case where it provides in 1st visual recognition area E3. Furthermore, it can be made more inconspicuous by being provided in the vicinity of the guide rail 2b where the frequency of the game ball flowing down in the game area 10 in the second visual recognition area E4 is low.

  Further, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 as the embodiment of the present invention, the second effect LED 521 and the second effect LED 522 provided on the front surface 512F of the second LED boards 512L and 512R, and the second effect LED 521. The first inner lens 561 for guiding the light incident on the light incident part 561A from the first LED 521 and the second effect LED 521 are provided at positions separated in the direction along the second LED substrates 512L and 512R. A light emitting part 561D that emits light by the guided light, a second inner lens 562 that guides light incident on the light incident part 562A from the second effect LED 522, and the second LED substrates 512L and 512R for the second effect LED 522. Provided in a direction away from the light source, and is emitted by light guided by the second inner lens 562. The first inner lens 561 is disposed so as to overlap the front surface 512F side of the second LED boards 512L and 512R, and the light from the second effect LED 521 is along the second LED boards 512L and 512R. The second inner lens 562 is disposed so as to overlap the front side of the first inner lens 561, and the light from the second effect LED 522 is directed in a direction along the second LED substrates 512L and 512R. Induce.

  By doing in this way, the light emission part 561D, the 2nd effect LED521, the light emission part 562F, and the 2nd effect LED522 can be shifted and arranged in the direction along the 2nd LED board 512L and 512R, and the light emission part 561D and the light emission part Since it is not necessary to arrange the second effect LEDs 521 and 522 at the position corresponding to 562F, the light emitting unit 561D and the light emitting unit 562F can emit light appropriately without causing them to light up.

  Moreover, in order to guide the light from the second effect LEDs 521 and 522 in the direction along the second LED substrates 512L and 512R, the second effect LEDs 521 and 522 are not increased without increasing the front and rear dimensions of the second lens units 514L and 514R. Since the light guiding portion 561D and 562F can be arranged apart from the second effect LEDs 521 and 522 in the direction along the second LED substrates 512L and 512R, the guide distance of the light from can be increased. It is possible to suitably prevent spotlighting.

  Further, the second LED substrate is formed by the first inner lens 561 and the second inner lens 562 arranged so that the light from the two second effect LEDs 521 and 522 arranged in parallel on the one surface (front surface 512F) is superimposed on the one surface. Since the light can be guided individually in the direction along 512L and 512R, it is possible to prevent the lights of the two second effect LEDs 521 and 522 from being mixed.

  In addition, an LED substrate in which LEDs as light emitting means are provided on the end surface side of the light guide plate, as in a light guide plate device that performs light-emitting display effects by making light from a plurality of LEDs incident on the end surfaces of the plurality of light guide plates. When it is arranged in a direction orthogonal to the light guide plate, it is necessary to attach each light guide plate to a base member or the like separately from the LED substrate, but in this embodiment, a plurality of LEDs are arranged in parallel as shown in FIG. Since the LED substrate and the plurality of light guide plates can be attached to the base members 510L and 510R together via the screw N2, the structure can be simplified.

  In addition, the light emitting unit 561D and the light emitting unit 562F are arranged at a position distant to one side with respect to the second effect LEDs 521 and 522 (for example, the inner side 512A side of the second LED boards 512L and 512R), and the second effect LED 522. Is arranged at a position away from the second effect LED 521 on the other side (outer side 512B side), and the second inner lens 562 is provided so as to cover the front of the second effect LED 521.

  By doing in this way, among the second effect LEDs 521 and 522 arranged in parallel with each other, the irradiation light from the second effect LED 522 exceeds the second effect LED 521 and the irradiation light of the second effect LED 521. Therefore, it is possible to guide the light emitting unit and the light emitting unit in the same direction.

  In addition, since the second inner lens 562 is disposed in front of the second effect LED 521, the irradiation light from the second effect LED 521 is reflected and diffused by the second LED substrates 512L and 512R and the second inner lens 562. This makes it difficult to reduce the luminance of the light emitting unit 561D.

  Further, the second effect LED 521 is an angle type LED that can irradiate light in a parallel direction or a substantially parallel direction with respect to the front surface 512F that is the mounting surface of the second LED substrate 512R, and the second effect LEDs 522 and 523 are mounted. The top type LED is provided so as to be able to irradiate light in a vertical direction or a substantially vertical direction with respect to the front surface 512F which is a surface, that is, forward.

  By doing in this way, since the irradiation direction of the light differs between LED 521 for 2nd effects and LED 522, 523 for 2nd effects, it can suppress that each irradiation light mixes.

  In addition, since the second effect LED 521 is an angle-type LED, the first inner lens 561 can be disposed in contact with or close to the front surface 512F of the second LED substrate 512R, and therefore the front and rear dimensions of the second lens units 514L and 514R. Can be shortened.

  The second effect LED 522 and each second effect LED 523 are top-type LEDs provided to be able to irradiate light in the vertical direction or the substantially vertical direction with respect to the front surface 512F, that is, forward. The lens 562 is guided by the first light guide unit 562B and the first light guide unit 562B that can guide light incident on the end surface from the second effect LEDs 522 and 523 to the front surface 512F in an orthogonal direction or a substantially orthogonal direction. And a second light guide portion 562D capable of guiding the light bent by the bent portion 562C toward the direction along the front surface 512F.

  By doing so, even when the second inner lens 562 is disposed at a position away from the front surface 512F, the light incident portion 562A of the second inner lens 562 is disposed close to the second effect LEDs 522 and 523. Therefore, it is possible to suppress a light leakage and a decrease in luminance of the light emitting unit. In addition, since the light from the second effect LEDs 522 and 523 is bent by the bent portions 562C and 563C, the light from the second effect LEDs 522 and 523 is not emitted from the light emitting portions 562F and 563F. Light is preferably prevented.

  In addition, a decorative cover 565 that covers at least the second effect LEDs 521 to 523 from the front surface 512F side so as to be invisible or difficult to visually recognize is provided.

  By doing in this way, it can suppress that the part corresponding to LED 521-523 for 2nd effects which is parts other than light emission part 561D, 562F shines.

  Also, the second effect LED 523 provided on the front surface 512F, the third inner lens 563 for guiding the light incident on the light incident portion 563A from the second effect LED 523, and the second LED substrate for the second effect LED 523 And a light emitting portion 563F that emits light guided by the third inner lens 563. The third inner lens 563 is on the front side of the second inner lens 562. Are arranged so as to overlap each other, guide the light from the second effect LED 523 toward the direction along the second LED substrate 512R, and the second effect LED 522 is arranged along the light incident part 562A. The second effect LED 523 has a light emitting means, and the light incident part 563A arranged in parallel with the light incident part 562A of the second inner lens 562. A plurality of third light-emitting means disposed me, and the plurality of second effect for LED522,523, provided in a direction different positions along the light input portion 562A.

  By doing in this way, it can suppress that the irradiation light of 2nd production LED522,523 mixes.
