  By the way, the game balls B flowing into the tank rail 553 from the ball tank 552 fall off with the metal powder being peeled off from the game balls B due to wear such as the game balls B colliding with each other or rubbing against each other. For this reason, if it will be in the state where the metal powder produced by abrasion of the game ball B adheres in the tank rail 553 in which the game ball B rolls in the downstream direction, the flow of the game ball B in the downstream direction is hindered. Thus, it becomes difficult to supply the game ball B smoothly toward the downstream side, and the payout of the game ball B by the payout device 350 of the payout unit 560 is stopped.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, a plurality of notches 553aa are formed on the lower side of the tank rail 553 (lower side of the rear surface of the tank rail 553 when the pachinko machine 1 is viewed from the front), and the metal powder generated by the wear of the game ball B Is configured to be removed from the tank rail 553. Thereby, for example, the metal powder generated by the wear of the game ball B can be removed from the tank rail 553 by naturally falling from the tank rail 553 to the outside through the notch 553aa, and the tank rail. The metal powder generated by the wear of the game ball B adhering to the tank rail 553 due to the vibration of the game ball B rolling in the 553 falls from the tank rail 553 to the outside through the notch portion 553aa, and thus metal. Powder can be removed from the tank rail 553, and metal powder generated by wear of the game ball B attached to the tank rail 553 by inserting a cotton swab into the cutout portion 553aa by an attendant such as a game hall clerk It is possible to remove the metal powder from the tank rail 553 by performing the operation of removing.

Touching the light emitting means such as a short circuit may cause a short circuit (which may cause a fire). Although the back cover 640 is formed with a plurality of slits 641, many of the back cover 640 is bent at or near the front end of the unconnected wiring, and the front end of the unconnected wiring is caught by the slit 641. Since it is difficult to invade toward the back side, a short circuit (short circuit) can be prevented.

  Of the various substrates provided in the game board 5, the substrate near the back cover 640 (excluding a relay substrate such as a panel relay substrate 1410 described later) is molded from a non-conductive resin that constitutes a substrate box. Even if the front end of the unconnected wiring enters the back side of the game board 5 through the slit 641 and comes into contact with the cover body, it does not affect the substrate covered by the cover body. . A relay board such as a panel relay board 1410 to be described later is a board that relays between one board and another board, and is therefore an aggregate of various connectors, and has a wiring pattern for electrically connecting the various connectors. It is formed not on the surface (mounting surface) of the relay board on which various connectors that face the back cover 640 are mounted, but on the back surface (solder surface) of the relay board on the opposite side to the surface facing the back cover 640. Through holes (hereinafter simply referred to as “through holes”) having lands in which the front surface (mounting surface) and back surface (solder surface) of the relay substrate can be soldered by inserting pin terminals of various connectors. Except for.)), The wiring pattern is covered with a resist of a predetermined color (for example, green, yellow, red, blue, black, etc.) and is not covered and exposed. . That is, even if the tip of the unconnected wiring enters the back side of the game board 5 through the slit 641 and contacts the relay board, the relay board is not affected at all.

The change board 1311 can be fixed. The A terminal, B terminal, COM1 terminal, and COM2 terminal of the base body 1311ac are soldered on the back surface (solder surface) of the setting change board 1311. On the back side of the base body 1311ac, when the setting key switch 1311a is mounted on the setting change board 1311, the setting key switch 1311a is oriented so that the insertion / removal reference position 1311aaa faces upward as shown in FIG. A columnar protrusion (not shown) to be specified is formed to protrude. With this cylindrical protrusion, when the manufacturer operator mounts the setting key switch 1311a on the surface (mounting surface) 1311x of the setting change board 1311, for example, the setting key switch 1311a is turned upside down (incorrect). It can be prevented from being soldered.

  When a metal setting key is inserted into the insertion port 1311aba formed on the front surface of the setting key cylinder 1311ab, even if electromagnetic noise enters through the metal setting key, a resin type setting key switch As described above, since the outer cylinder 1311aa, the setting key cylinder 1311ab, and the base body 1311ac are formed of non-conductive resin 1311a, the A terminal, the B terminal, the COM1 terminal, and the COM2 terminal are connected. There is no influence.

[Metal type key switch]
Next, a metal type setting key switch 1311a includes a metal cylindrical outer cylinder 1311aa and a metal setting key cylinder that is rotated by inserting a setting key into the inner side of the outer cylinder 1311aa. 1311ab is the same as the resin-type setting key switch 1311a in that the material is the same as that of the resin-type setting key switch 1311a described above. In addition, the outer cylinder 1311aa and the setting key cylinder 1311ab are molded of metal, and the outer cylinder 1311aa and the setting key cylinder 1311ab are electrically connected. Although the outer cylinder 1311aa is connected to a non-conductive resin base body 1311ac, the metal frame plate 1311ad has a hole penetrating the outer cylinder 1311aa at a position corresponding to the outer cylinder 1311aa. The surface and side surfaces of the base body 1311ac are covered. That is, when a metal setting key is inserted into the insertion port 1311aba formed on the front surface of the setting key cylinder 1311ab and electromagnetic wave noise enters through the metal setting key, as described above, the outer cylinder 1311aa Since the setting key cylinder 1311ab is in an electrically connected state, there is a problem that electromagnetic noise may enter the metal frame plate 1311ad. A detailed description of electromagnetic noise of the metal type setting key switch will be described later.

[Relationship between setting key switch and cover of main control board box]
Here, the relationship between the setting key switch 1311a and the cover body 1301 of the main control board box 1320 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 26 is a schematic diagram showing the relationship between the setting key switch and the cover body of the main control board box.

  As described above, the insertion port 1311aba for inserting the metal setting key is provided on the front surface of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a. In a state where the setting change board 1311 is accommodated in the main control board box 1320, the front face of the setting key switch 1311a (that is, the front face of the outer cylinder 1311aa and the front face of the setting key cylinder 1311ab) is from the cover body 1301 of the main control board box. As shown in FIG. 26, the cover body 1301 of the main control board box 1320 has a diameter larger than the outer diameter of the setting key cylinder 1311ab at a position corresponding to the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a. For example, a tube-shaped rib portion 1301za (tube-shaped rib portion 1301za) having a predetermined distance dimension toward the setting change substrate 1311 along the inner periphery of the through hole 1301z having a diameter larger than the outer diameter of the setting key cylinder 1311ab. The thickness of the cover body 1 Have the 01 same thickness and thickness.) Are formed. The inner periphery of the through hole 1301z and the inner periphery of the tube-shaped rib portion 1301za communicate with each other so as to be the same inner peripheral surface without a step.

  Since the through hole 1301z is also a portion where a finger or fist of a person accessing the setting key switch 1311a hits, the rib 1301za can increase the strength around the through hole 1301z. As a result, the periphery of the through hole 1301z is pushed by the force of the person to bend the periphery of the through hole 1301z to increase the clearance between the through hole 1301z and the setting key cylinder 1311ab, or the periphery of the through hole 1301z is damaged to penetrate. Since it is possible to prevent an increase in the outer diameter of the hole 1301z and increase the gap between the through hole 1301z and the setting key cylinder 1311ab, for example, a person who illegally accesses the setting key switch 1311a deliberately points Even if the fist is pushed around the through hole 1301z, it is possible to contribute to preventing insertion of a long and narrow illegal tool such as a wire between the through hole 1301z and the setting key cylinder 1311ab.

  The diameter of the through hole 1301z is set to be inside the rectangular shape which is the surface shape of the base body 1311ac having a rectangular parallelepiped of the setting key switch 1311a. A distance d between the end of the rib portion 1301za and the surface of the metal frame plate 1311ad of the setting key switch 1311a is separated by d (about 2 mm in this embodiment), and the metal frame plate of the setting key switch 1311a. 1311ad is configured not to be directly touched by a person who accesses the setting key switch 1311a.

  As a result, the “clearance between the through hole 1301z and the rib portion 1310za of the cover body 1301 and the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a (in this embodiment, the diameter of the through hole 1301z is 2 mm larger than the outer diameter of the setting key cylinder 1311ab). Even if a long thin irregular tool such as a wire is inserted into the gap, the diameter of the through hole 1301z is the surface shape of the base body 1311ac having the rectangular parallelepiped of the setting key switch 1311a. Since it is formed so as to fit inside the rectangular shape, the tip of the elongated irregular tool hits the surface of the base body 1311ac so that it cannot be bent and enter the setting change board 1311. That is, it is possible to prevent the setting change board 1311 and the main control board 1310 from being altered.

  Further, in the resin type setting key switch 1311a, as described above, the outer cylinder 1311aa and the setting key cylinder 1311ab are each formed of non-conductive resin, so that a person who is charged with static electricity sets it. Even if a finger approaches or touches the front surface of the key switch 1311a (that is, the front surface of the outer cylinder 1311aa and the front surface of the setting key cylinder 1311ab), the electromagnetic wave noise due to electrostatic discharge is set via the setting key switch 1311a. Intrusion into 1311 can be prevented. In addition, the distance d between the end portion of the rib portion 1301za formed along the outer periphery of the through hole 1301z of the resin cover body 1301 having non-conductivity and the surface of the metal frame plate 1311ad of the setting key switch 1311a. (In this embodiment, since the distance is approximately 2 mm), a person who is charged with static electricity may bring a finger close to or touch the through hole 1301z of the resin cover body 1301 having non-conductivity or the periphery thereof. However, since it becomes difficult for electromagnetic wave noise due to electrostatic discharge to enter the metal frame plate 1311ad of the setting key switch 1311a via the through hole 1301z and the rib portion 1301za, the setting change board via the setting key switch 1311a. Intrusion into 1311 can be prevented.

  In the metal type setting key switch 1311a, as described above, the outer cylinder 1311aa and the setting key cylinder 1311ab are made of metal, and the outer cylinder 1311aa and the setting key cylinder 1311ab are electrically connected. It has become a state. Although the outer cylinder 1311aa is connected to a non-conductive resin base body 1311ac, the metal frame plate 1311ad has a hole penetrating the outer cylinder 1311aa at a position corresponding to the outer cylinder 1311aa. The surface and side surfaces of the base body 1311ac are covered. That is, if a person who is charged with static electricity touches or touches the through-hole 1301z of the non-conductive resin cover body 1301 or its periphery, electromagnetic noise due to electrostatic discharge is caused by the outer cylinder 1311aa and the setting key. Since the cylinder 1311ab is electrically connected, electromagnetic wave noise may enter the metal frame plate 1311ad. For this reason, if a person who is charged with static electricity touches or touches the through hole 1301z of the non-conductive resin cover body 1301 or its periphery, electromagnetic wave noise due to electrostatic discharge may cause metal frame plate 1311ad. May intrude into the setting change board 1311 via the setting key switch 1311a. A detailed description of electromagnetic noise of the metal type setting key switch will be described later.

  In addition, when an operator performs an operation of mounting the game board 5 on the main body frame 4 of the pachinko machine 1 installed in the island facility of the game hall, first, the worker temporarily places the game board 5 on or around the front surface of the pachinko machine 1. The setting key switch 1311a can be prevented from colliding with the floor and being damaged when the temporarily placed game board 5 is stopped during work and the operator's leg hits the game board 5 and falls down. Further, even when the game board 5 is removed from the main body frame 4 of the pachinko machine 1, the removed game board 5 is temporarily placed on the front surface of the pachinko machine 1 or the periphery thereof. It is possible to prevent the setting key switch 1311a from colliding with the floor and being damaged when the operator's leg hits the game board 5 and falls down during the work.

  Although the setting indicator 1310g and the base monitor 1310h are accommodated in the internal space formed by the cover body 1301 and the base body 1302 and cannot be touched at all, the cover body 1301 is molded transparently as described above. Therefore, the set value displayed on the setting display 1310g and the number of balls displayed on the base monitor 1310h can be visually recognized through the cover body 1301.

  In order to prevent unauthorized modification, the setting key switch 1311a is set as a route between the wiring pattern that transmits the setting key ON signal and the wiring pattern that transmits the setting key switch 1311a OFF signal. The change board 1311 is formed so as not to be close to each other (separated from each other), and the connection to the terminal of the connector SMCN of the setting change board 1311 (the terminal of the connector MSCN of the main control board 1310) is also formed apart. Also on the main control board 1310, wiring patterns for transmitting various signals from the setting key switch 1311a (that is, wiring patterns for transmitting the setting key ON signal of the setting key switch 1311a and OFF of the setting key switch 1311a). Wiring patterns that carry the same signal are also close to each other In addition to being formed (separated from each other), the routing from the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 is not brought close to each other (separated from each other). Formed).

[Procedure for operating the setting key switch]
Here, a procedure until the setting key switch 1311a of the setting change board 1311 is operated will be briefly described. In the state where the game board 5 is attached to the main body frame base 501 of the main body frame 4, as described above, the main control board 1310 is disposed on the open side of the main body frame 4. A setting change board 1311 is arranged on the support side (closed side). Further, when the game board 5 is attached to the main body frame base 501 of the main body frame 4, the main control board box 1320 is covered with the back cover 640 as described above. Further, when the game board 5 is attached to the main body frame base 501 of the main body frame 4, the main control board 1310 is disposed on the shaft support side (closed side) of the back cover 640, whereas the back cover is opened. A setting change board 1311 is arranged on the side. That is, when the back cover 640 is opened, since the back cover opening side of the back cover 640 is the shaft support side (closed side) of the body frame 4, the body frame 4 is made larger than the outer frame 2 (about If it is not opened (close to 90 degrees), the open side of the back cover 640 interferes with the outer frame 2 so that the state where the back cover 640 covers the rear side of the game board 5 cannot be opened. In other words, a person who accesses the setting key switch 1311a in order to operate the setting key switch 1311a of the setting change board 1311 opens the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 by a gap enough to insert an arm. Even if it is attempted to access the setting key switch 1311a of the setting change board 1311, the back cover 640 cannot be opened. That is, a person who accesses the setting key switch 1311a of the setting change board 1311 first sets the space for the outer frame 2 in order to secure a space where the back cover 640 can open the state where the back side of the game board 5 is covered. It is necessary to open the main body frame 4 large (approximately 90 degrees).

  As described above, since the setting change board 1311 is arranged on the shaft support side (closed side) of the main body frame 4, the setting change board 1311 is compared with the case where the setting change board 1311 is arranged on the open side of the main body frame 4. When a fraudster who attempts to gain unauthorized access to the setting key switch 1311a uses an unauthorized tool such as a piano wire or a wire, the open side of the body frame 4 is between the outer frame 2 and the body frame 4. Even if an unauthorized tool is inserted and fed from the side, the path from the opening side of the main body frame 4 to the setting key switch 1311a becomes longer, so that it is necessary to feed the unauthorized tool deeply. As a result, the operation time during which an unauthorized tool is sent to the setting key switch 1311a also becomes longer, so that it is possible to make it easier for a staff member such as a game hall clerk to find such an illegal act.

  Further, since the main control board box 1320 is covered with the back cover 640, the insertion port 1311ab of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a of the setting change board 1311 is covered with the back cover 640. It has become. As a result, a fraudulent person who attempts to gain unauthorized access to the setting key switch 1311a of the setting change board 1311 is located between the outer frame 2 and the main body frame 4 using an unauthorized tool such as a piano wire or a wire. Even if an unauthorized tool is inserted and fed from the open side of 4, the unauthorized tool is blocked by the back cover 640 before reaching the insertion port 1311aba of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a. It is possible to prevent the setting key switch 1311a from being inserted into the insertion port 1311aba of the setting key cylinder 1311ab.

  The setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a of the setting change board 1311 is provided with an insertion port for inserting a metal setting key, and the insertion port of the setting key cylinder is covered by the back cover 640. Therefore, in order to access the setting key switch 1311a of the setting change board 1311, it is necessary to perform an operation of opening the back cover 640. In order to open the back cover 640, it is necessary to perform an operation of opening the main body frame 4 larger than the outer frame 2 (approximately 90 degrees). By accompanying such a plurality of operations, it is possible to increase the deterrence against unauthorized acts by unauthorized tools by improving the security of access to the setting key switch 1311a of the setting change board 1311.

  As described above, the back cover 640 is mounted so that the left side of the front view is pivotally supported by the back cover mounting portion 551i of the payout base 551 and the back cover mounting portion 601a of the upper full ball path unit 600 so as to be opened and closed. The back cover 640 is fixed by screwing the lock screw 642 to the back cover attaching portion 601a, and the lock screw 642 is also arranged on the open side of the back cover 640, whereby the main body frame 4 is fixed. It is arrange | positioned at the axial support side (closed side) of the main body frame 4 used as the opposite side to the open side. For this reason, an unauthorized person who attempts to gain unauthorized access to the setting key switch 1311a of the setting change board 1311 inserts an unauthorized tool between the outer frame 2 and the main body frame 4 from the open side of the main body frame 4. Even if it is sent in, the path from the opening side of the main body frame 4 to the locking screw 642 of the back cover 640 becomes longer, so that it is necessary to send an unauthorized tool deeply. Also in this respect, since the operation time for sending an unauthorized tool to the locking screw 642 becomes longer, it is possible to make it easier for a staff member such as a store clerk of the game hall to find such an unauthorized action, and a setting change board. By increasing the security of access to the setting key switch 1311a of 1311, it is possible to increase deterrence against fraudulent acts by unauthorized tools.

  The setting change board 1311 on which the setting key switch 1311a is arranged is housed in the main control board box 1320 together with the main control board 1310, and this main control board box 1320 is attached to the rear side of the board holder 1200 of the game board 5. ing. On the other hand, the payout control board 633 on which the RWM clear button 633z is arranged is housed in the payout control board box 632, and this payout control board box 632 is located behind the power supply board cover 631 in the board unit 620 of the main body frame 4. Installed on the side. As described above, the setting key switch 1311a and the RWM clear button 633z are separated from each other by arranging the setting key switch 1311a and the RWM clear button 633z on different boards and making the objects to which the boards are attached different. Can do. In the case where the setting key switch 1311a and the RWM clear button 633z are collectively arranged on one board, it is only necessary to make unauthorized modifications to one board, which is not preferable for crime prevention. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the setting key switch 1311a and the RWM clear button 633z are arranged on separate boards, and the configuration to which the board is attached is different, so that the setting key switch 1311a and the RWM are arranged. Security against the clear button 633z is improved.

  The main control board 1310 (main control MPU 1310a) performs game preparation control and game control (the game control is performed following the game preparation control). The game preparation control is based on a signal from the setting key switch 1311a of the setting change board 1311 in the first step (in step S14 in the main control side power-on process described later) in which the setting value can be changed. Subsequent to this determination and the processing of step S16A) and this first step, a signal from the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 (here, functions as a setting switching button for selecting and switching a setting value). The second step (the determination in step S216 in the setting change process to be described later, the process in step S218) can be selected and switched based on the above. Subsequent to the game preparation control, the game control includes a main control side main process in a main control side power-on process described later, a main control side timer interrupt process described later, and the like.

  Although such a crime prevention capability can be improved, the setting key switch 1311a and the RWM clear button 633z are arranged on different boards, and the setting key is adopted by adopting a configuration in which the objects to which the boards are attached are different. Since the switch 1311a is housed in the main control board box 1320, it is not particularly necessary to tell where the setting key switch 1311a is arranged, but where the RWM clear button 633z that also functions as a setting switching button is located. It may be difficult to understand whether the staff is arranged or not, because the staff of the game hall, the staff of the game hall, and the like may be unfamiliar.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, the main control board box 1320 is marked with location information that can tell the location of the RWM clear button 633z. Specifically, a seal that can tell the location of the RWM clear button 633z is attached to the cover body of the main control board box 1320. This sticker is a transparent rectangular sheet. On this rectangular sheet, for example, a red translucent character (height: 7 mm) is printed as “RWM clear button (setting switch button) is on the dispensing control board”. ing. As a result, the arrangement location of the RWM clear button 633z (setting switch button) can be communicated to the staff of the game hall store manager, the game hall store staff, etc., so the game hall store manager, the game hall store staff, etc. When the RWM clear button 633z is operated, the RWM clear button 633z can be easily found so that the eyes are not turned. Therefore, the location of the RWM clear button 633z can be easily known.

  Note that this seal does not interfere with the visibility of the main control board 1310 even if it is affixed to the cover body of the main control board box 1320. Further, symbols such as arrows may be used instead of the characters printed on the rectangular sheet of the seal.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the seal is attached to the cover body of the main control board box 1320 as notation serving as location information that can convey the location of the RWM clear button 633z. When the cover body of the substrate box 1320 is molded, a concave character or a convex character may be molded together (that is, the cover body and the character may be integrally molded). . Even with this configuration, the location of the RWM clear button 633z can be easily known.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, a seal is attached to the cover body of the main control board box 1320 as notation serving as location information that can convey the location of the RWM clear button 633z. The character (height: 7 mm) “RWM clear button (setting switch button) is on the payout control board” may be printed in white as silk print on the surface (mounting face) of the board 1311, or the payout control board 633 A character (height: 7 mm) “RWM clear button (setting switching button)” may be printed in white as silk printing on the front surface (mounting surface). The silk printing color may be the same color or different colors. In addition, symbols such as arrows may be used instead of characters to be silk-printed. Even with this configuration, the location of the RWM clear button 633z can be easily known.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, a seal is attached to the cover body of the main control board box 1320 as notation serving as location information that can convey the location of the RWM clear button 633z. Mask the character part on the surface (mounting surface) of the board 1311 and remove the letter (height: 7 mm). The RWM clear button (setting switching button) is on the dispensing control board. A character portion may be masked on the surface (mounting surface) of the control board 633 to form a letter (height: 7 mm) as a “RWM clear button (setting switching button)” using a resist. The resist colors may be the same color, but different colors are preferable because the substrates can be distinguished. Further, a blank symbol in which a symbol such as an arrow is masked may be used instead of the blank character. Even with this configuration, the location of the RWM clear button 633z can be easily known.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the seal is attached to the cover body of the main control board box 1320 as notation serving as location information that can convey the location of the RWM clear button 633z. The same seal (the seal is a transparent rectangular sheet) on the surface (mounting surface) of the substrate 1310 or the surface (mounting surface) of the setting change substrate 1311. For example, a red translucent character (high 7mm) may be affixed with "RWM clear button (setting switch button) is on the dispensing control board"), or red translucent on the surface (mounting surface) of the dispensing control board 633 A transparent rectangular sheet called “RWM clear button (setting switching button)” may be pasted with simple characters (height: 7 mm). Even with this configuration, the location of the RWM clear button 633z can be easily known.

  In the embodiment described above, a seal is affixed to the cover body of the main control board box 1320 as notation serving as location information that can convey the location of the RWM clear button 633z. Where the button 633z is arranged, the announcement sound may be played from various speakers, or an announcement image may be displayed on the effect display device 1600. Specifically, for example, in the state where the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, a staff member such as a game hall manager or a game hall clerk operates the effect operation unit 301 of the effect operation unit 300 to display the effect display device 1600. Various setting screens are displayed, and an item for the location of the RWM clear button 633z (setting switching button) is selected. As a result, the announcement sound “RWM clear button is on the payout control board. RWM clear button also serves as a setting switching button” that tells where the RWM clear button 633z is located. An announcement image (which may be taken with a photograph) indicating the location of the RWM clear button 633z is displayed on the effect display device 1600. The store manager of the game hall, the store clerk of the game hall, etc., grasps the location of the RWM clear button 633z by such announcement voice or announcement image, then shuts off the power of the pachinko machine 1 and changes the setting value. It can be done smoothly. Even with this configuration, the location of the RWM clear button 633z can be easily known.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the seal is attached to the cover body of the main control board box 1320 as notation serving as location information that can convey the location of the RWM clear button 633z. When changing the setting, an announcement sound may be played from various speakers where the RWM clear button 633z that also functions as a setting switching button is arranged. Specifically, for example, by transmitting a predetermined command to the peripheral control board 1510 when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on and the main control MPU 1310a performs a setting change process in which the setting value can be changed and determined, Tells where the RWM clear button 633z is located under the control of the control board 1510. “The RWM clear button is on the payout control board. The RWM clear button also serves as a setting switch button. Set by operating the RWM clear button. Please change the value "announcement sound repeatedly flows from various speakers. When the main control MPU 1310a completes the setting change process, the main control MPU 1310a transmits a predetermined command to the peripheral control board 1510, so that the peripheral control board 1510 advances various processes based on the received predetermined command after stopping the announcement voice. Will be. Even with this configuration, the location of the RWM clear button 633z can be easily known. Note that, after such an announcement voice, an announcement voice that tells the operation method of the setting key after the set value is determined may be played from various speakers. In addition, when the announcement sound is being played, an image “setting” may be displayed on the effect display device 1600.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the seal is attached to the cover body of the main control board box 1320 as notation serving as location information that can convey the location of the RWM clear button 633z. When changing the setting, an announcement sound may be played from various speakers where the RWM clear button 633z that also functions as a setting switching button is arranged. Specifically, for example, by transmitting a predetermined command to the peripheral control board 1510 when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on and the main control MPU 1310a performs a setting change process in which the setting value can be changed and determined, Tells where the RWM clear button 633z is located under the control of the control board 1510. “The RWM clear button is on the payout control board. The RWM clear button also serves as a setting switch button. Set by operating the RWM clear button. Please change the value "announcement sound repeatedly flows from various speakers. This eliminates the need to search for a sticker attached to the cover body of the main control board box 1320. In addition, although such announcement sound repeatedly flows from various speakers, it is assumed that the content of the announcement sound is missed, and the sticker affixed to the cover body of the main control board box 1320 before the next announcement sound starts to flow. By visually observing, it is possible to know the location of the RWM clear button 633z. In addition to “The RWM clear button is on the payout control board. The RWM clear button also functions as a setting switch button. Change the setting value by operating the RWM clear button.” You may make it guide the content which tells the place where the sticker which shows the location of a button is affixed. When the RWM clear button is operated, the main control MPU 1310a transmits a predetermined command to the peripheral control board 1510, so that the peripheral control board 1510 stops the announcement voice. Even if the person who changes the setting value has become accustomed to the setting value setting change due to the work, if the RWM clear button is operated immediately after starting the work, , The announcement voice can be stopped promptly, and if it is unavoidable that the work must be done after the game hall is started, the work should be started so as not to inconvenience the player. When the RWM clear button is operated immediately, the announcement voice can be stopped promptly. Note that, after such an announcement voice, an announcement voice that tells the operation method of the setting key after the set value is determined may be played from various speakers. In addition, when the announcement sound is being played, an image “setting” may be displayed on the effect display device 1600.

  In the above-described embodiment, the setting key switch 1311a and the RWM clear button 633z are arranged on different boards, and the objects to which the boards are attached are also different, so that the setting key switch 1311a and the RWM clear button 633z are different. However, if the crime prevention can be improved, the setting key switch 1311a and the setting switching button (in this case, the setting switching button is switched from the RWM clear button 633z of the dispensing control board 633). Functions can be removed). For example, the setting change board 1311 has a distance dimension in the vertical direction of the right side and the left side that is substantially the same as a distance dimension in the vertical direction of the right side and the left side of the main control board 1310, and the distance dimension in the left and right direction thereof A center line passing through the midpoints of the right side and the left side of the main control board 1310 and a center line passing through the midpoints of the right side and the left side of the setting change board 1311; , Has a matching shape. That is, the setting change board 1311 has a rectangular shape that is long in the vertical direction. The connector SMCN of the setting change board 1311 is disposed on the center line along the left side of the setting change board 1311 on the center line, and the connector MSCN of the main control board 1310 is A position that becomes the center of the vertical distance dimension is arranged on the center line along the right side of the control board 1310. A setting key switch 1311a having a setting key cylinder which is inserted below the center line of the setting change board 1311 and is rotated by inserting a setting key near the lower side of the setting change board 1311 is disposed. A setting switching button having a pressing operation unit is disposed above the center line and near the upper side of the setting change board 1311. In other words, the setting key switch 1311a is disposed near the lower side of the same substrate as the setting change substrate 1311, whereas the setting switching buttons are disposed near the upper side and are spaced apart from each other. In this way, when the setting key switch 1311a and the setting switching button are arranged separately from each other on the same board, the setting key switch 1311a and the setting switching button are collected on one board. Can be made difficult to perform unauthorized modification, so that the setting key switch 1311a and the setting switching button are integrated on one board and arranged separately. Even if it is a thing, crime prevention can be improved.

[Procedure for changing setting values, procedure for confirming and displaying setting values]
Next, the setting key switch 1311a of the setting change board 1311, the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633, and the setting display 1310g of the main control board 1310 will be briefly described. Here, the case where the setting value setting is changed will be briefly described first, and the case where the current setting value confirmation display is performed will be briefly described. In addition to changing the set value, the set key is an important key that allows you to check the current set value that has been set. Permitted and limited to 2-3 people.

  When changing the set value, the main body frame with respect to the outer frame 2 when the power is restored after power-on of the pachinko machine 1 or power recovery after a power failure (instantaneous power failure that momentarily causes a power failure). 4 is opened, the setting key is inserted into the insertion port 1311ab of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a of the setting change board 1311, and the setting key cylinder 1311ab is rotated 60 degrees clockwise to be turned ON. Accordingly, the “predetermined setting value change permission condition” that the setting key switch 1311a is turned on and the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 is operated needs to be satisfied. . That is, the person who actually changes the setting value checks the state in which the pachinko machine 1 is not turned on (the state in which the pachinko machine 1 is turned off), The work to open the main body frame 4 is performed, and then a metal setting key is inserted into the insertion port 1311aba of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a and turned ON by turning it 60 degrees clockwise. As a result, the setting key switch 1311a is turned ON, and then the pachinko machine 1 is turned on by operating the power switch 630a while operating the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z.

  A person who changes the setting value first confirms that the pachinko machine 1 is not turned on (the pachinko machine 1 is turned off), and then attaches the body frame 4 to the outer frame 2. The opening operation is performed, and then a metal setting key is inserted into the insertion port 1311aba of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a, and the setting key cylinder is rotated 60 degrees clockwise to turn it ON. Thus, the setting key switch 1311a is set to the setting key ON. Subsequently, the pachinko machine 1 is powered on by operating the power switch 630a while operating the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z. Thus, the setting key ON signal is input from the setting change board 1311 to the main control MPU 1310a of the main control board 1310. The main control MPU 1310a sets the current setting value stored in a specific area of the built-in RAM (setting value 1 to setting value 6 when the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a is turned on) Displayed value) is displayed on the setting display 1310g, and the setting change permission lamp 1310z is switched from the off state to the on state.

  When a person who changes the setting value presses the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633, a detection signal from the RWM clear button 633z is sent from the payout control board 633 to the main control MPU 1310a of the main control board 1310. Is input. Each time a person who changes the setting value presses the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z, the main control MPU 1310a increases by 1 from the current setting value based on the detection signal from the RWM clear button 633z. Then, when the set value 6 that is the maximum value is reached, the control returns to the set value 1 that is the initial value, increases by 1 again, and controls to display the set value on the setting display 1310g.

  When a person who changes the setting value determines the setting value, the initial position (that is, the setting key switch 1311a) is changed from the rotation position of the setting key cylinder in which the setting key switch 1311a is set to ON. Rotate 60 degrees counterclockwise so as to return to the rotational position of the setting key cylinder to be turned off, and turn it off. The setting key OFF signal is input from the setting change board 1311 to the main control MPU 1310a of the main control board 1310. As a result, the main control MPU 1310a stores the setting value determined by changing the setting in a specific area of the RAM built in the main control MPU 1310a, and hides the setting value from the state in which the setting value is displayed on the setting display 1310g. The state is switched, and the setting change permission lamp 1310z is switched from being lit to being turned off.

  A person who changes the setting value performs the work of removing the metal setting key from the insertion port 1311aba of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a and closing the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2. Complete the setting change work.

  In the case of confirming and displaying the set value currently set, the outer frame 2 can be used at the time of power-on of the pachinko machine 1 or at the time of power recovery after a power failure (instantaneous power failure that momentarily causes a power failure). The main body frame 4 is opened, the setting key is inserted into the insertion port 1311ab of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a, and the setting key cylinder 1311ab is rotated 60 degrees clockwise to be turned ON. Thus, the “predetermined set value display permission condition” that the setting key switch 1311a is turned on and the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is not operated needs to be satisfied. That is, the person who confirms and displays the setting value that is actually set first confirms that the pachinko machine 1 is not turned on (the pachinko machine 1 is turned off) and then goes outside. The main body frame 4 is opened with respect to the frame 2, and then a metal setting key is inserted into the insertion port 1311aba of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a and rotated 60 degrees clockwise. By turning ON the setting key switch 1311a, the setting key is turned ON. Subsequently, the pachinko machine 1 is turned on by operating the power switch 630a without operating the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z. .

  The person who confirms and displays the set value that is currently set first confirms that the pachinko machine 1 is not powered on (the pachinko machine 1 is powered off), and then The main body frame 4 is opened, and then a metal setting key is inserted into the insertion port 1311aba of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a, and the setting key cylinder is rotated 60 degrees clockwise. The setting key switch 1311a is set to ON by turning ON. Subsequently, the pachinko machine 1 is turned on by operating the power switch 630a without operating the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z. Thus, the setting key ON signal is input from the setting change board 1311 to the main control MPU 1310a of the main control board 1310. The main control MPU 1310a sets the current setting value stored in a specific area of the built-in RAM (setting value 1 to setting value 6 when the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a is turned on) Displayed value) is displayed on the setting display 1310g. At this time, the state where the setting change permission lamp 1310z is turned off is maintained, and even if a person who confirms and displays the currently set value is pressing the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z, the pressing operation is not performed. Correspondingly, the set value is not changed at all, and the content displayed on the setting display 1310g is not changed.

  When the person who performs confirmation display of the currently set value, after confirming the currently set value, the initial position is the original position from the rotational position of the set key cylinder in which the set key switch 1311a is turned on. In order to return to the position (that is, the rotation position of the setting key cylinder that turns off the setting key switch 1311a), the turning operation is performed by rotating 60 degrees counterclockwise. The setting key OFF signal is input from the setting change board 1311 to the main control MPU 1310a of the main control board 1310. As a result, the main control MPU 1310a switches from a state in which the setting value is displayed on the setting display 1310g to a state in which it is not displayed.

  The person who confirms and displays the currently set value pulls out the metal setting key from the insertion port 1311aba of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a and closes the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2. To complete the confirmation display of the currently set value.

  In addition, as described above, the predetermined set value change permission condition is that when the power is restored to the pachinko machine 1 or when power is restored after a power failure (instantaneous power failure in which an instantaneous power failure occurs), 2 is opened, the setting key is inserted into the insertion port 1311ab of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a, and the setting key cylinder 1311ab is rotated 60 degrees clockwise to turn on. The setting key ON operation is performed and the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is required to be operated, whereas the predetermined setting value display permission condition is as described above. The main body frame 4 is opened with respect to the outer frame 2 at the time of power recovery after power-on of the pachinko machine 1 or power recovery after a power failure (instantaneous power failure that momentarily causes a power failure) When the setting key is inserted into the insertion port 1311ab of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the constant key switch 1311a, the setting key cylinder 1311ab is turned ON by being rotated 60 degrees clockwise, and the setting key is turned ON. It is necessary that the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is not operated. As described above, the predetermined set value change permission condition and the predetermined set value display permission condition are determined when the power of the pachinko machine 1 is turned on or when the power is restored after a power failure (instantaneous power failure that momentarily causes a power failure). At the time of power recovery, the main body frame 4 is opened with respect to the outer frame 2, and the setting key is inserted into the insertion port 1311ab of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a so that the setting key cylinder 1311ab moves clockwise. There is a common requirement in that the setting key is turned on by turning it 60 degrees and turning it on. The predetermined setting value change permission condition includes “when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on or when a power failure occurs ( It is a requirement that the pressing operation part of the RWM clear button 633z is operated at the time of power recovery after power recovery after a momentary power failure (momentary interruption). The predetermined set value display permission condition is “when the RWM clear button 633z is pressed when power is restored after power-on of the pachinko machine 1 or power recovery after a power failure (instantaneous power failure that momentarily causes a power failure). The difference is that the operation unit is not operated.

  There are two types of setting key switches: a lead type and a surface mount type (so-called SMD type). The setting key switch 1311a in this embodiment basically adopts a lead type. The setting key switch 1311a has an operation in which a setting key is inserted into or removed from the insertion slot. For this reason, when the force accompanying this operation acts on the substrate on which the setting key switch 1311a is provided, the substrate is bent. In the lead type, each lead of the setting key switch is disposed inside the outer shape of the setting key switch and soldered to the back surface (solder surface) of the substrate. On the other hand, in the SMD type, each lead of the setting key switch is disposed so as to protrude outward from the outer shape of the setting key switch, and is soldered to the surface (mounting surface) of the substrate.

  As a result, in the lead type type, if the setting key is caught in the insertion port when the metal setting key is pulled out from the insertion port, each lead of the setting key switch is arranged inside the outer shape of the setting key switch and the board. Compared to the SMD type, the setting key switch leads are projected toward the outer shape and soldered to the board surface (mounting surface). The load applied to the part where each lead of the key switch is soldered to the back surface (solder surface) of the board increases, and this load works strongly from the back surface (solder surface) to the front surface (mounting surface) of the board. It will bend greatly. On the other hand, in the case of the SMD type, even if the setting key is caught in the insertion port when the metal setting key is pulled out from the insertion port, each lead of the setting key switch faces outward from the outer shape of the setting key switch. The lead of the setting key switch is placed inside the outer shape of the setting key switch and soldered to the back side (solder side) of the board. Compared to the lead type, the load applied to the part where each lead of the setting key switch is soldered to the surface (mounting surface) of the board is reduced, and this load is reduced from the back surface (solder surface) to the surface (mounting surface). The substrate itself is difficult to bend even when working toward the surface.

  In addition, when the board itself bends greatly due to the external force acting on the board, there is a concern that the solder pattern where the SMD type electronic component is soldered may cause the land pattern peeling load to peel off greatly. When using the above-mentioned one, it is desirable to mount it on a substrate on which no SMD type electronic component is mounted. In addition, the peeling load of the wiring pattern and land pattern in the solder portion where each lead portion of the setting key switch is soldered to the back surface (solder surface) of the board is smaller than that of the SMD type, and the soldering portion of the setting key switch In view of the strength of the solder portion, it is desirable to use a lead type switch as the setting key switch.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, basically, the setting key switch 1311a is a lead type. In this embodiment, since the SMD type electronic component is not mounted on the setting change board 1311 but the lead type electronic component is mounted, a lead type of the setting key switch 1311a is mounted on the setting change board 1311. Even if the setting key is caught in the insertion slot when the metal setting key is pulled out from the insertion slot and the board itself is greatly bent as described above, soldering is performed on the back surface (solder side) of the setting change board 1311. There is no possibility that the other electronic components of the lead type are peeled off from the back surface (solder surface) of the setting change substrate 1311. As described above, the connector SMCN of the setting change board 1311 is connected to the connector MSCN of the main control board 1310 (connection between boards) (the connector SMCN of the setting change board 1311 and the connector MSCN of the main control board 1310). Therefore, the signals from the setting key switch 1311a are electrically connected to the main control board 1310.

  A rectangular main control board 1310 that is long in the left-right direction of the cover body of the main control board box 1320 extends from the left side to the right side of the area surrounded by the left side, upper side, right side, and lower side of the cover body of the main control board box 1320. The size of the main control board box 1320 is connected to the upper side and the right side of the main control board box 1320. A square-shaped setting change board 1311 is arranged in the corner area. The setting change board 1311 is formed in a square shape having a distance dimension of one side of about one fifth of the distance dimension in the horizontal direction of the cover body of the main control board box 1320, and is a rectangular shape that is long in the left-right direction. It is smaller than the main control board 1310 having a shape. In this embodiment, the lead-type setting key switch 1311a is mounted on the square-shaped setting change board 1311 having such a small shape, and a metal setting key is temporarily inserted into the insertion port of the setting key switch 1311a. Even if the board itself is bent by being pushed in, or when the setting key is caught in the insertion slot when the metal setting key is pulled out from the insertion slot of the setting key switch 1311a, the board itself may be bent. By forming 1311 on a small substrate, the amount of deflection can be reduced compared to the main control substrate 1310. As a result, the cover or base body of the main control board box 1320, which is in contact with the front surface (mounting surface) or back surface (solder surface) of the setting change board 1311, is prevented from being bent at a position corresponding to the setting change board 1311. Since there is no need to provide ribs that can be set, screw setting holes can be provided in the setting change board 1311 around the position where the setting key switch 1311a is mounted, and the setting change board 1311 is accommodated in the transparent main control board box 1320. This can contribute to the visibility of the front surface (mounting surface) and the back surface (solder surface) of the setting change substrate 1311.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the setting key switch 1311a is a lead type and is disposed on the setting change board 1311 that is separate from the main control board 1310, so that the setting value can be changed. Even if the setting change board 1311 is bent due to the operation (operation) in which the setting key is inserted into and removed from the insertion port of the setting key switch 1311a, the main control board 1310 is not bent. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the main control board 1310 from being bent due to the operation of the lead type setting key switch 1311a.

  On the other hand, instead of the setting change board 1311, the setting key switch 1311 a is arranged on any one of the boards such as the main control board 1310, the payout control board 633, and the power supply board 630. When the SMD type electronic component is mounted on the board, the setting key switch 1311a is replaced with the SMD type instead of the lead type, and is mounted on the surface (mounting surface) of the board and temporarily inserted. Even when the setting key is pulled out from the mouth, even if the setting key is caught in the insertion slot, the board itself is difficult to bend as described above, so other SMD type electronic devices that are soldered to the surface (mounting surface) of the board. There is no risk that the component will peel off from the surface (mounting surface) of the substrate.

  Here, the set value will be briefly described. The “set value” is a probability for determining whether or not a big hit or not, and a probability for determining whether or not a lottery or not. It is possible to change the probability for determining the lottery when shifting to the time, the distribution ratio to the area that is advantageous to the player, etc., and it is advantageous for the player (that is, what the player acquires) The probability (advantage) that can increase the number of game balls that can be played) is preset. In the present embodiment, as setting values, setting value 1, setting value 2, setting value 3, setting value 4, setting value 5, and setting value 6 are prepared in advance, from setting value 1 to setting value 6. A probability (advantage degree) that is advantageous for the player is set in advance. The main control MPU 1310a of the main control board 1310 has various tables used in various lottery determinations associated with the set values (for example, a jackpot determination table in which the ratio of the jackpot determination value indicating that the jackpot is won, Big hit symbol determination table that defines the percentage of decision value for decision, small hit judgment table that defines the proportion of small hit judgment value that indicates winning for small hit, and the percentage of decision value for decision of small hit symbol A small hitting symbol determination table, a normal transition determination table in which the ratio of determination values for transition determination from the probability change to the normal time is specified), and used at various distribution rates associated with set values Select various tables (for example, a distribution table in which the distribution time is specified, a block that manages the drive of an electric drive source such as a motor or solenoid) Or. In the various tables used in various lottery determinations associated with the set values, the various determination values are allocated at a predetermined ratio. Various tables used in various lottery determinations are set so that at least some values are different from each other, and various tables used in various allocation rates are set so that at least some values are different from each other. In some cases, the values differ based on the relationship between the table corresponding to the block managing the drive of one electrical drive source and the table corresponding to the block managing the drive of another electrical drive source. Some are set to. In addition, as the setting values described above, six setting values (integers) in the range from the setting value 1 to the setting value 6 were used. However, the setting values may be in a smaller range or in a larger range. It may be a thing. For example, four set values (integer) in the range from set value 1 to set value 4 may be used, or eight set values (integer) in the range from set value 1 to set value 8 may be used.

  As described above, the setting indicator 1310g displays the setting value, and the main control MPU 1310a checks the contents of the RAM built in itself when power is restored to determine whether there is an abnormality. If it is determined that there is an abnormality, and if the main control side power-off process has not been completed normally when the power is turned off, the content stored in its own RAM is abnormal (or trusted) Display an error message to that effect. In the present embodiment, the main control MPU 1310a displays the letter E on the setting display 1310g as an error display.

[Base monitor]
Next, the base monitor 1310h will be briefly described. The base monitor 1310h is collected by the out port 1008 provided in the game area 5a formed in the game board 5 among the game balls launched in the game area 5a. The number of game balls is displayed. Of the game balls launched into the game area 5a, the game balls collected by the out port 1008 are detected by the out port sensor 3032, and this detection signal is input to the main control MPU 1310a via the panel relay board 1710.

  The main control MPU 1310a counts the number of game balls collected by the outlet 1008, stores the count result (total number) in a specific area of the built-in RAM, and displays it on the base monitor 1310h. It has become.

[Modification]
In the above-described embodiment, the setting key switch 1311a can be turned ON by turning the setting key cylinder 1311ab by turning 60 degrees clockwise from the initial position, and this setting key can be turned ON. The key ON signal is input from the setting change board 1311 to the main control MPU 1310a of the main control board 1310, and the initial position (that is, the original position from the rotation position of the setting key cylinder where the setting key switch 1311a is set ON) The setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF by rotating it 60 degrees counterclockwise so as to return the setting key switch 1311a to the rotational position of the setting key cylinder turning OFF). This OFF signal is sent to the setting change board 131. Is input to the main control MPU 1310a of the main control board 1310, but a serial output circuit capable of serially outputting the information for transmitting the setting key ON and OFF as serial information is provided as a setting key. The switch 1311a may be provided. Thereby, security can be improved with respect to the signal from the setting key switch 1311a. The setting key switch 1311a provided with the serial output circuit is provided on the setting change board 1311. Alternatively, it may be provided on the main control board 1310 or may be provided on the payout control board 633. . When serial information serially output from the serial output circuit is input from the setting change board 1311 to the main control MPU 1310a of the main control board 1310, the main control MPU 1310a determines whether the setting key ON and OFF are received from the received serial information. It is possible to determine which one is to be transmitted (the mode of the setting key switch 1311a having a serial circuit may be described as “setting key modification (1)”).

  In the above-described embodiment, the setting key switch 1311a can be turned ON by rotating the setting key cylinder 1311ab by 60 degrees clockwise from the initial position, and this setting key can be turned ON. The key ON signal is input from the setting change board 1311 to the main control MPU 1310a of the main control board 1310, and the initial position (that is, the original position from the rotation position of the setting key cylinder where the setting key switch 1311a is set ON) The setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF by rotating it 60 degrees counterclockwise so as to return the setting key switch 1311a to the rotational position of the setting key cylinder turning OFF). This OFF signal is sent to the setting change board 131. Is input to the main control MPU 1310a of the main control board 1310, but a pulse output circuit capable of outputting information indicating the setting key ON and OFF as a pulse signal to the outside is provided as a setting key switch. You may provide in 1311a. Thereby, security can be improved with respect to the signal from the setting key switch 1311a. The setting key switch 1311a provided with this pulse output circuit is provided on the setting change board 1311. Instead, it may be provided on the main control board 1310 or may be provided on the payout control board 633. . For example, the pulse signal output from the pulse output circuit is set to 1 ms in the case of information indicating the setting key ON, and is set to 5 ms in the case of information indicating OFF. . When the pulse signal output from the pulse output circuit is input from the setting change board 1311 to the main control MPU 1310a of the main control board 1310, the main control MPU 1310a selects the setting key ON and OFF from the input pulse signal. It is possible to determine which information is to be transmitted (the mode of the setting key switch 1311a having a pulse output circuit may be referred to as “setting key modification (2)”).

  In the above-described embodiment, the setting key switch 1311a can be turned ON by rotating the setting key cylinder 1311ab by 60 degrees clockwise from the initial position, and this setting key can be turned ON. The key ON signal is input from the setting change board 1311 to the main control MPU 1310a of the main control board 1310, and the initial position (that is, the original position from the rotation position of the setting key cylinder where the setting key switch 1311a is set ON) The setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF by rotating it 60 degrees counterclockwise so as to return the setting key switch 1311a to the rotational position of the setting key cylinder turning OFF). This OFF signal is sent to the setting change board 131. To the main control MPU 1310a of the main control board 1310, but the voltage level of the setting key ON signal and the voltage level of the OFF signal range from the setting change board 1311 to the main control board 1310. A comparator circuit is provided in the main control board 1310 using an intermediate potential (for example, a potential from 2 V to 3 V out of zero V to 5 V) between the boards, and a comparison result by the comparator circuit is input to the main control MPU 1310 a. Thus, the main control MPU 1310a may determine ON / OFF of the setting key ON signal and ON / OFF of the OFF signal. Thereby, security can be improved with respect to the signal from the setting key switch 1311a (the setting key switch using the intermediate potential may be described as “setting key modification (3)”).

  In the above-described embodiment, the initial position (that is, the setting key cylinder that turns off the setting key switch 1311a) is the original position from the rotation position of the setting key cylinder in which the setting key switch 1311a provided on the setting change board 1311 is set ON. The setting key switch 1311a can be turned OFF by rotating it 60 degrees counterclockwise so as to return to the rotation position of the main control board. The OFF signal is sent from the setting change board 1311 to the main control board. The setting key switch 1311a may be provided on the main control board 1310 (the configuration of the setting key switch is “Modification example of setting key (4)”). May be described).

  In the above-described embodiment, the main control board 1310 and the setting change board 1311 are accommodated in the internal space of the main control board box 1320 configured by the cover body and the base body. It may be accommodated in the body setting change board box and arranged around or adjacent to the main control board box 1320. In the main control board box 1320, the cover body and the base body are crimped by a one-way screw or the like of the crimping portion. This caulking part is a sealing mechanism and is provided with a plurality. The main control board box 1320 can be closed by caulking the cover body and the base body with a one-way screw or the like of the caulking portion using one sealing mechanism. Next, to open the main control board box 1320, The sealing mechanism needs to be destroyed. That is, the cover body cannot be removed from the base body unless the sealing mechanism is destroyed. Such a structure of the main control board box 1320 can also be applied to the structure of the setting change board box. In this case, the front surface of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a and the pressing operation portion of the enter key button are exposed through the opening formed in the cover body of the main control board box 1320 corresponding thereto. However, the setting change board 1311 is modified by infiltrating a wire or the like from a “clearance” formed in the front surface of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a and the pressing operation portion of the determination key button and the corresponding opening. In order to prevent this, the wire intrusion prevention portion is formed on the cover body with respect to the opening. Note that, unlike the structure of the main control board box 1320 described above, the structure of the setting change board box is different from that of the main control board box 1320 in the case where the cover body can be opened or closed from the base body. A setting change board cover opening / closing switch that can detect opening of the cover body may be provided. In this case, the detection signal from the setting change board cover body opening / closing switch may be directly input to the main control board 1310, or (indirect) input to the main control board 1310 via the setting change board 1311. You may comprise. Based on the detection signal from the setting change board cover body opening / closing switch, the case where the cover body is opened from the base body can be included in the above-described predetermined set value change permission condition (of the setting change board box). The mode may be described as “setting key modification (5)”).

  Further, among the above-described modification examples (1) to (5) of the setting key, a mode appropriately selected and combined may be adopted (the mode of the selection combination of the modification example is referred to as “setting key modification example (6)). ").

  In addition, in the setting value described above, in addition to the probability for lottery determination as to whether it is a big hit or the probability for lottery determination as to whether it is a small hit, in order to make a lottery determination when shifting from the probability change to the normal time , The allocation ratio to the area that is advantageous to the player, etc., and is advantageous to the player (that is, increasing the number of game balls that the player can acquire) The probability (degree of advantage) is preset. In the present embodiment, as setting values, setting value 1, setting value 2, setting value 3, setting value 4, setting value 5, and setting value 6 are prepared in advance, from setting value 1 to setting value 6. The probability (degree of advantage) that would be advantageous to the player was set in advance. By the way, although the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment has a plurality of set values ranging from the set value 1 to the set value 6, the probability (advantage degree) that the other pachinko machines are advantageous to the player is high. Some have a single preset value set in advance. That is, as in the pachinko machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the probability (advantage) that is advantageous to the player exists in advance as a plurality of setting values and has a gaming specification that requires a setting change, and is advantageous to the player. There is a game specification with a probability (advantage) having a single preset value in advance and requiring no setting change at all. However, if the hardware configuration of the main control board 1310 is changed in design according to such game specifications and the hardware configuration of the setting change board 1311 is changed or not used, the main control board 1310 and the setting change board 1311 are changed. Therefore, the main control board 1310 and the setting change board 1311 having similar or different hardware configurations are provided according to the game specifications. Therefore, the main control board 1310 and the setting change board 1311 are required not to depend on the game specifications, that is, to be able to be used in common without changing the design of the hardware configuration.

  For example, the probability (advantage degree) that the probability (advantage degree) that the player has an advantage for the player is that the setting value is advantageous to the player in a game specification in which only a single set value exists in advance and the setting change is not required at all. The setting value 1, the setting value 2, the setting value 3, the setting value 4, the setting value 5, and the setting value 6 are dealt with by design change by software that assigns the following contents. Can do.

  For example, the main control MPU 1310a can set a plurality of actual machine confirmation operation patterns after clearing a predetermined area (excluding a specific area of the entire RAM area) of the RAM built in itself (after the RAM is cleared). It can be used as a set value) (variation can be given to the starting method of the pachinko machine 1). In this case, with respect to the operation of the movable body (object) to be controlled by the main control MPU 1310a and the lighting of a light emitter such as a lamp or LED, the set value 1 is “all operations (movable body (portable object). The actual machine confirmation operation pattern 1 that designates “operation of the object (lighting object)” is assigned, and the actual machine confirmation operation pattern 2 that designates “operation of the movable object (object)” is assigned as the setting value 2 and is set. The actual machine confirmation operation pattern 3 that designates “lighting of the luminous body” is assigned as the value 3, and the detailed operation of the movable body (accessory) (variable movement speed, movement over the entire operation region, other An actual machine check operation pattern 4 for designating an interference check with a structure or another movable body (an accessory) and an operation order such as an operation order with another movable body (an accessory)) is assigned. 1 port unit of light emitter (main control MP An actual machine check operation pattern 5 that designates “lighting of a light emitting body in a predetermined output port unit 1310a (that is, for each output port)” is assigned, and an actual machine check that designates “no operation” as a setting value 6 is assigned. The operation pattern 6 is assigned (the change setting mode of the actual machine confirmation operation after the RAM is cleared may be described as “variation example (1) by common hardware configuration)”. Note that the main control MPU 1310a performs the operation of the movable body (instant) and the lighting of a light emitting body such as a lamp or LED by repeatedly performing a main control side timer interruption process described later in the actual machine check operation after the RAM is cleared. The peripheral control board 1510 that receives the setting change command (described as a setting change completion command in FIG. 115) from the main control MPU 1310a performs peripheral control with the contents (actual machine check operation pattern) according to the setting value included in the setting change command. Operation of a movable body (an accessory) to be controlled by the substrate 1510 and lighting of the light emitter can be performed. With the change setting mode of the actual machine confirmation operation after the RAM is cleared, variations can be made in the starting method of the pachinko machine 1 after the RAM is cleared.

  In addition, for example, it can be used as a set value that can set a plurality of times from the end of symbol variation until a demonstration (a demonstration effect performed in a player waiting state). In this case, the time setting pattern 1 designating “10 seconds” as the setting value 1 is assigned, the time setting pattern 2 designating “15 seconds” as the setting value 2 is assigned, and “20 seconds as the setting value 3”. Is assigned a time setting pattern 3 that designates “25 seconds” as a setting value 4, and a time setting pattern 5 that designates “30 seconds” as a setting value 5. A time setting pattern 6 that designates “35 seconds” as the setting value 6 is assigned (the mode of changing the time when the player enters the waiting state after the end of the change of the symbol is described as “Modification by common hardware configuration (2 ) "). The peripheral control board 1510 that receives the setting change command from the main control MPU 1310a can start the demonstration at a time (time setting pattern) corresponding to the setting value included in the setting change command. The time from the end of the symbol change to the demonstration can be varied according to the mode for setting the time change after the symbol change is over.

  Further, for example, it can be used as a setting value that can set a plurality of contents of a demonstration (a demonstration effect performed while waiting for a player) performed after the end of symbol variation. In this case, a demonstration effect setting pattern 1 that designates “comical effect” as the setting value 1 is assigned, and a demonstration effect setting pattern that designates “comical effect, operation effect of movable body (function)” as the setting value 2. 2 is assigned, and the demonstration effect setting pattern 3 that designates “serious effect” as the setting value 3 is assigned, and the demonstration effect setting pattern that designates “serial effect, operation effect of movable body (function)” as the setting value 4 4 is assigned, a demonstration effect setting pattern 5 is assigned as a setting value 5 that designates “period drama style effect”, and a demonstration effect setting that designates “period drama style effect, movable object (function)” as a setting value 6 Pattern 6 is assigned (the mode of change setting of the contents of the demonstration effect may be described as “variation example by common hardware configuration (3)”). The peripheral control board 1510 that receives the setting change command from the main control MPU 1310a can perform a demonstration with a demonstration effect (demonstration effect setting pattern) according to the setting value included in the setting change command. According to the mode of changing the contents of the demonstration effect, it is possible to give variations to the contents of the demonstration effect performed after the end of the change of the symbol.

  In addition, for example, it can be used as a setting value that can set a plurality of default volumes adjusted by a volume adjustment switch provided on the peripheral control board 1510. The volume can be increased or decreased from the default volume by rotating the volume adjustment switch. In this case, a volume setting pattern 1 that designates “volume 1” is assigned as the setting value 1, a volume setting pattern 2 that designates “volume 2” is assigned as the setting value 2, and “volume 3” is assigned as the setting value 3. Is assigned a volume setting pattern 4 that designates “volume 4” as a setting value 4, and a volume setting pattern 5 that designates “volume 5” as a setting value 5. A volume setting pattern 6 that designates “volume 6” is assigned as the setting value 6 (the default volume change setting mode may be described as “variation example (4) by common hardware configuration)”. Note that the sound volume is set to increase from the setting value 1 toward the setting value 6. The peripheral control board 1510 that receives the setting change command from the main control MPU 1310a is set to a default volume with a volume (volume setting pattern) corresponding to the setting value included in the setting change command. In addition, the default volume of “volume 1” assigned to setting value 1 is moved in the direction in which the volume adjustment switch decreases the volume (moved in the direction opposite to the direction in which the volume is increased), and the movement to the end of the minimum volume is completed. When the volume is adjusted to the minimum side, the sound may be muted, or the volume may be such that the sound can be recognized when stopped at the front of the pachinko machine. In addition, the default volume of “volume 6” assigned to the setting value 6 is moved in the direction in which the volume adjustment switch increases the volume (moved in the direction opposite to the direction in which the volume is decreased), and the movement to the maximum volume side end is completed. When the maximum volume is adjusted, the maximum volume may be set, or the volume may be a predetermined ratio (for example, 85%) of the maximum volume. With this default volume change setting mode, it is possible to provide variations in the default volume adjusted by the volume adjustment switch provided on the peripheral control board 1510.

  Also, for example, it can be used as a set value that can set a plurality of error notification sound volumes in error notifications such as various problems, gotoes, and errors. The various error notification sounds cannot be adjusted by operating the volume control switch provided on the peripheral control board 1510 (that is, not dependent), and the pachinko machine that generates the error notification sound by setting the maximum volume to the game hall. Although it is easy for a staff member such as a store clerk to notice, there may be a case where the player who plays the game with other pachinko machines feels annoying. Therefore, what can adjust the volume of various error notification sounds is also required. In this case, an error notification volume setting pattern 1 that specifies “error notification volume 1” is assigned as the setting value 1, and an error notification volume setting pattern 2 that specifies “error notification volume 2” is assigned as the setting value 2. , An error notification volume setting pattern 3 designating “error notification volume 3” is assigned as the setting value 3, an error notification volume setting pattern 4 designating “volume 4” is assigned as the setting value 4, and “ An error notification volume setting pattern 5 that designates “error notification volume 5” is assigned, and an error notification volume setting pattern 6 that designates “error notification volume 6 (maximum volume)” is assigned as a setting value 6 (volume of error notification sound) ) May be described as “variation example with common hardware configuration (5)”. It should be noted that the setting value 1 (the volume that does not mute, and the volume that can recognize the error notification sound when stopped in front of the pachinko machine that generates the error notification sound) is set to the setting value 6 (the maximum volume, It is set so that the volume of the error notification sound increases toward a volume that allows the error notification sound to be sufficiently recognized even if it is several meters away from the pachinko machine that emits the error notification sound. The peripheral control board 1510 that receives the setting change command from the main control MPU 1310a performs control to generate an error notification sound at an error notification sound volume (error notification volume setting pattern) corresponding to the setting value included in the setting change command. By changing and setting the volume of the error notification sound, the error notification sound volume in error notification can be varied.

  Further, for example, it can be used as a setting value that can set a plurality of default luminances of light emitters such as lamps and LEDs. The luminance can be increased or decreased from the default luminance with respect to the light emitter to be controlled by the main control MPU 1310a. In this case, a default luminance setting pattern 1 that designates “luminance 1” is assigned as the setting value 1, a default luminance setting pattern 2 that designates “luminance 2” is assigned as the setting value 2, and “ A default luminance setting pattern 3 that designates “luminance 3” is assigned, a default luminance setting pattern 4 that designates “luminance 4” is assigned as the setting value 4, and a default luminance setting pattern that designates “luminance 5” as the setting value 5 5 is assigned, and a default brightness setting pattern 6 that designates “luminance 6” as the setting value 6 is assigned (the mode of changing the default brightness may be described as “variation example by common hardware configuration (6)”). is there). Note that the main control MPU 1310a adjusts the brightness of the light emitter by repeatedly performing a main control timer interruption process, which will be described later, to change the default brightness, thereby performing lighting of the light emitter, blinking, gradation points, and the like. The peripheral control board 1510 that receives the setting change command from the main control MPU 1310a is an object to be controlled by the peripheral control board 1510 based on the default luminance (default luminance setting pattern) corresponding to the setting value included in the setting change command. The brightness of the illuminant can be adjusted to turn on, blink, and tone points. By changing and setting the content of the default brightness, it is possible to provide variations in the default brightness of light emitters such as lamps and LEDs.

  In addition, for example, it can be used as a setting value that can set a plurality of brightnesses of light emitters such as lamps and LEDs in error notifications such as various problems, gotoes, and errors. An error notification brightness setting pattern 1 that designates “error notification brightness 1” as a setting value 1 is assigned to a lamp that is to be controlled by the main control MPU 1310a, and “error notification brightness 2” is set as a setting value 2. An error notification luminance setting pattern 2 to be specified is assigned, an error notification luminance setting pattern 3 to specify “error notification luminance 3” as a setting value 3 is assigned, and an error notification to specify “error notification luminance 4” as a setting value 4 The error notification brightness setting pattern 4 is assigned, the error notification brightness setting pattern 5 specifying “error notification brightness 5” as the setting value 5 is assigned, and “error notification brightness 6 (maximum brightness)” is specified as the setting value 6. The brightness setting pattern 6 is assigned (the mode of the change setting of the brightness of the light emitter in the error notification is “common hardware It may be described as E A modification of the configuration (7) "). It should be noted that although the lamp is not turned off, the lamp brightness is low and the lamp brightness is such that an error notification can be recognized when stopped in front of the pachinko machine. The brightness is set to be high. The main control MPU 1310a adjusts the luminance of the illuminant by repeatedly performing the main control side timer interruption process described later to change the luminance of the illuminant in the error notification, thereby adjusting the lighting of the illuminant, blinking, gradation points, etc. Do. The peripheral control board 1510 that receives the setting change command from the main control MPU 1310a is controlled by the peripheral control board 1510 based on the error notification brightness (error notification brightness setting pattern) corresponding to the setting value included in the setting change command. The brightness of the illuminant can be adjusted to turn on, blink, and gradation point of the illuminant. Due to the setting for changing the luminance of the light emitter in the error notification, the luminance of the light emitter such as a lamp or LED in the error notification can be varied.

  In addition, the various setting values assigned to the modifications (1) to (7) according to the common hardware configuration described above satisfy preset setting value display permission conditions in the setting value confirmation display processing described later performed by the main control MPU 1310a. It is sometimes displayed on the setting display 1310g, but it may be always displayed on the setting display 1310g after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on until the power is turned off (setting value display). May be described as “variation example (8) by common hardware configuration”).

  Further, any one of the modification examples (1) to (8) based on the common hardware configuration described above may be selected as appropriate and adopted in the modification example (6) of the setting key described above.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the main body frame 4 is opened with respect to the outer frame 2 when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on or when power is restored after a power failure (instantaneous power failure that momentarily causes a power failure). The setting key is inserted into the insertion port 1311ab of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a, and the setting key ON operation is performed by turning the setting key cylinder 1311ab by turning 60 degrees clockwise. If the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 is pressed, the main control MPU 1310a performs a setting change process in the main control side power-on process described later to By clearing all areas of the control built-in RAM, excluding specific areas, and then setting interrupt enable etc. While the technique is advanced, when the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 is not pressed, the main control MPU 1310a performs a set value confirmation display process in the main control side power-on process described later. And then proceed with the game by setting interrupt permission. By adopting this mode, when the main control MPU 1310a starts the progress of the game, the set value confirmation display process is never performed. That is, the main control MPU 1310a never displays the set current setting value on the setting display 1310g when the progress of the game is started by performing the interrupt permission setting or the like. The main control MPU 1310a counts the number of game balls collected by the out port 1008 provided in the game area 5a defined in the game board 5 in the ball count process of the main control side power-on process described later. The number of game balls output to the base monitor 1310h and collected by the out port 1008 in the port output process of the main control side power-on process described later is displayed on the base monitor 1310h. Therefore, the current setting value that is set and displayed by the setting indicator 1310g may be displayed on the base monitor 1310h described above. As a result, the main control MPU 1310a uses the base monitor 1310h to display the current set value that has been set in the period from when the power is restored to when the progress of the game is started by performing an interrupt permission setting or the like. In addition, when the progress of the game is started by performing an interrupt permission setting after power is restored, the number of game balls collected through the out port 1008 can be displayed. There is no need to provide it, which can contribute to cost reduction.

After being routed to the lower side, it is electrically connected to the function display unit connector MFCN.

  As described above, the wiring FCBL for electrically connecting the function display unit 1400 and the main control board 1310 has a long wiring length, and in particular, from the upper right corner of the game board 5 to the rear surface of the game panel 1100 and the back box. The wiring FCBL routed to the upper side of the rear surface of the back box 3010 is bent toward the lower side of the rear surface of the back box 3010, and a plurality of wiring processing pieces 3011 are formed in the vertical direction along the right side of the rear surface of the back box 3010. They are routed to the lower side of the main control board box 1320 along the right side of the main control board box 1320 on the rear side of the board holder 1200 that is collected and attached to the lower rear side of the game panel 1100. Thus, the area where the wiring FCBL is routed is the front of the payout unit 560 attached to the payout base unit 550 in the main body frame 4 shown in FIG. 131 when the game board 5 is mounted on the pachinko machine 1. Will be placed.

  A decoration substrate 1131 on which a plurality of decoration LEDs are mounted is disposed behind the function display unit 1400. When the wiring UPCBL, which is a connection cable electrically connected via the connection connector 1131a provided on the back surface side of the decorative board 1131, is bent to the upper rear side of the game panel 1100, the upper side of the front surface of the back box 3010 When bent toward the rear surface of the back box 3010 and routed to the upper side of the rear surface of the back box 3010 in a state of being close (or in contact) with the above-described wiring FCBL, it is directed downward to the rear surface of the back box 3010. And bent together by a plurality of wiring processing pieces 3011 formed in the vertical direction along the right side of the rear surface of the back box 3010 and routed to the upper side of the drive board unit 1700 below the peripheral control unit 1500. The Then, the wiring UPCBL is separated from the above-described path of the wiring FCBL, and is bent toward the left side below the peripheral control unit 1500 and on the upper side of the driving board unit 1700, along the upper side of the driving board unit 1700. After being routed and routed to above the predetermined connector of the panel drive board 1720 in the drive board unit 1700, it is electrically connected to the predetermined connector.

  As described above, the wiring UPCBL that electrically connects the decorative board 1131 and the panel drive board 1720 disposed behind the function display unit 1400 has a long wiring length, and particularly from the upper right corner of the game board 5. The wiring FCBL routed to the rear side of the gaming panel 1100 and the upper side of the back side of the back box 3010 is bent downwardly on the rear side of the back box 3010, and vertically extends along the right side of the rear side of the back box 3010. A plurality of wiring processing pieces 3011 formed together are routed down to the upper side of the drive board unit 1700 below the peripheral control unit 1500. Thus, the area where the wiring UPCBL is routed is attached to the payout base unit 550 in the main body frame 4 shown in FIG. 147 in the state where the game board 5 is mounted on the pachinko machine 1 in the same manner as the wiring FCBL described above. It will be arranged in front of the payout unit 560.

  As described above, the payout unit 560 includes a ball guide unit 570 having a single guide passage for guiding the game ball B from the tank rail 553 downward in a meandering manner, and a single guide passage of the ball guide unit 570. A payout device 580 for paying out the game balls B one by one based on an instruction from the payout control board 633, an upper full sphere path unit 600 for guiding the game balls B passing through the payout device 580 downward; A lower full tank path unit 610 for guiding the game ball B that has passed through the upper full ball path unit 600 to the door frame 3 side or the board unit 620 side.

  In addition, as described above, the game ball B is ground in the island facility of the game hall or rubbed with each other in the circulation between the island facility and the pachinko machine 1 to be charged and electrostatically discharged, thereby generating electromagnetic noise. discharge. For this reason, static electricity tends to accumulate in and around the area where the ball tank 552 and the payout unit 560 in which the game ball B can stay are attached.

  The main control board 1310, which will be described in detail later, includes a main control MPU 1310a, which is a microprocessor with a built-in ROM that stores various processing programs and various commands, a RAM that temporarily stores data, and the like. I have. The main control MPU 1310a has a built-in circuit that is forcibly reset by hardware when affected by electrical noise (hereinafter referred to as “built-in reset circuit”). The forced reset by the circuit has a mechanism that cannot be controlled and invalidated by the user program. Therefore, when a forced reset is performed by the built-in reset circuit, the main control MPU 1310a is reset without executing the main control side power-off process described later, and again executes the main control-side power-on process described later. Will be. In this case, since the main control-side power-off process is not executed, a checksum (sum value) error of the RAM built in the main control MPU 1310a always occurs, so the contents of the RAM built in the main control MPU 1310a Will be completely erased (cleared). That is, if the internal reset circuit is forcibly reset, the RAM is cleared when the main control MPU 1310a is activated again.

  In the present embodiment, a ZIP (Zigzag Inline Package) type package is adopted as the package of the main control MPU 1310a. When the main control MPU 1310a is mounted on the mounting surface of the main control board 1310, various pins of the main control MPU 1310a are provided. The main control board 1310 protrudes from the soldering surface (surface opposite to the mounting surface). That is, the various pins of the main control MPU 1310a protrude toward the bottom plate of the main control board box 1320.

  As described above, since the area where the ball tank 552 and the payout unit 560 are attached and the periphery thereof are likely to accumulate static electricity, when electromagnetic noise is released by electrostatic discharge, the function display unit is disposed in front of the payout unit 560. 1400 and the main control board 1310 may enter the wiring FCBL that electrically connects, and the upper left panel decoration board 1131 and the peripheral control board 1510 disposed behind the function display unit 1400 are electrically connected. The wiring UPCBL may enter. As a result, electromagnetic noise that has entered the wiring FCBL may jump out and enter the wiring UPCBL. Conversely, electromagnetic noise that has entered the wiring UPCBL may jump out and enter the wiring FCBL.

  For example, the wiring FCBL that electrically connects the function display unit 1400 and the main control board 1310 is assumed to be in the wiring space formed between the rear surface of the substrate holder 1200 and the bottom plate of the main control board box 1320. It is routed in a straight line from a predetermined position on the right side of the control board box 1320 toward the left side of the main control board box 1320 (for example, the right side of the main control board box 1320 and about the upper side of the main control board box 1320). A portion having a length of a quarter, bent toward the left side of the main control board box 1320 so as to be parallel to the upper side or the lower side of the main control board box 1320), and the left side from the center of the lower side of the main control board 1310 At the stage of passing over the function display unit connector MFCN arranged close to the main control board box 1320 After being bent toward the side and pulled out from the lower side of the main control board box 1320, when electrically connected to the function display unit connector MFCN, if electromagnetic noise enters the wiring FCBL, the wiring FCBL is When routed through the wiring space formed between the rear surface of the substrate holder 1200 and the bottom plate of the main control board box 1320, the front of the main control board 1310 corresponding to the mounting position of the main control MPU 1310a (that is, the main control board 1310a). When passing through the area (in front of the bottom plate of the control board box 1320), electromagnetic noise enters the various pins of the main control MPU 1310a protruding toward the bottom plate of the main control board box 1320 via the wiring FCBL. Under the influence of electromagnetic noise, the main control MPU 1310a is forced to reset by its built-in reset circuit. Door and there is a consuming fear.

  In addition, instead of in the wiring space formed between the rear surface of the substrate holder 1200 and the bottom plate of the main control board box 1320, when the wiring accommodating groove is formed in the rear surface of the substrate holder 1200, the wiring FCBL is , Not the wiring space formed between the rear surface of the substrate holder 1200 and the bottom plate of the main control board box 1320, but is accommodated along the wiring accommodation groove and pulled out from the lower side of the main control board box 1320. It is electrically connected to the unit connector MFCN. Also in this case, when electromagnetic wave noise enters the wiring FCBL, as described above, when the wiring FCBL is accommodated and routed along the wiring accommodation groove formed on the rear surface of the substrate holder 1200, the main control MPU 1310a. When passing through a region in front of the main control board 1310 corresponding to the mounting position (that is, in front of the bottom plate of the main control board box 1320), electromagnetic noise is transmitted to the bottom plate of the main control board box 1320 via the wiring FCBL. The main control MPU 1310a may intrude into the various pins of the main control MPU 1310a projecting toward the main control MPU 1310a, and the main control MPU 1310a may be forcibly reset by its own built-in reset circuit.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, the function display unit connector MFCN is used as the main control board as a positional relationship between the mounting position of the function display unit connector MFCN to which the wiring FCBL is electrically connected and the mounting position of the main control MPU 1310a. The main control MPU 1310a is arranged above the center line passing through the midpoints of the right side and the left side of the main control board 1310. That is, in the present embodiment, the main control MPU 1310a is arranged with the function display unit connector MFCN below the center line passing through the midpoint between the right side and the left side of the main control board 1310. By disposing the main control MPU 1310a above the line, the function display unit connector MFCN and the main control MPU 1310a are separated from each other on the main control board 1310.

  As a result, the main control MPU 1310a can be arranged away from the function display unit connector MFCN to which the wiring FCBL is electrically connected. Therefore, the electromagnetic wave noise that has entered the wiring FCBL is connected to the function display unit connector MFCN and the main control. It is possible to prevent the MPU 1310a from entering various pins of the main control MPU 1310a protruding toward the bottom plate of the main control board box 1320 through a space separating the main control board 1310. Therefore, the main control MPU 1310a can be protected from the wiring FCBL through which electromagnetic noise can enter.

  Further, by disposing the main control MPU 1310a away from the function display unit connector MFCN to which the wiring FCBL is electrically connected, even if electromagnetic noise enters the wiring FCBL, the main control MPU 1310a is not affected. The electromagnetic noise entering through the wiring FCBL can be attenuated on the main control board 1310 or in a space where the function display unit connector MFCN and the main control MPU 1310a are separated from each other in the main control board 1310. ing. Also in this respect, the main control MPU 1310a can be protected from the wiring FCBL through which electromagnetic noise can enter.

  In the present embodiment, the main control MPU 1310a is arranged such that the right side of the package is separated from the right side of the main control board 1310 by at least a predetermined distance dimension (hereinafter referred to as “first wiring separation distance dimension”). ing. This is because the wiring FCBL that electrically connects the function display unit 1400 and the main control board 1310 is routed downward along the right side of the main control board box 1320. This is to prevent noise from entering the various pins of the main control MPU 1310a protruding toward the bottom plate of the main control board box 1320 through the space having the first wiring separation distance from the wiring FCBL.

  Further, the wiring FCBL that electrically connects the function display unit 1400 and the main control board 1310 is in the wiring space formed between the rear surface of the board holder 1200 and the bottom plate of the main control board box 1320 as described above. On the right side of the main control board box 1320 of the main control unit 1300 attached to the rear surface of the substrate holder 1200 without being routed (or accommodated along the wiring receiving groove formed on the rear surface of the substrate holder 1200). And then bent toward the left side of the main control board box 1320 and routed to the lower side of the function display unit connector MFCN along the lower side of the main control board box 1320. The main control board box 132 is electrically connected to the function display unit connector MFCN. The distance dimension between the wiring FCBL routed along the lower side of the main control board box 1320 and various pins of the main control MPU 1310a protruding toward the bottom plate of the main control board box 1320 (hereinafter referred to as “second wiring separation distance dimension”) ) Can be secured greatly. The second wiring separation distance dimension is larger than the first wiring separation distance dimension. As a result, electromagnetic wave noise that has entered the wiring FCBL enters various pins of the main control MPU 1310a that protrudes from the wiring FCBL toward the bottom plate of the main control board box 1320 through the space having the second wiring separation distance. Can be prevented. Also in this respect, the main control MPU 1310a can be protected from the wiring FCBL through which electromagnetic noise can enter.

  In this embodiment, the function display unit 1400 and the main control board 1310 are directly electrically connected by the wiring FCBL. However, the function display unit 1400 and the main control board 1310 are electrically connected via the panel relay board 1710. It can also be configured to be connected. In this case, it is preferable to provide the panel relay substrate 1710 with an element that can reduce or eliminate the electromagnetic noise that has entered the wiring FCBL (that is, a plurality of control signals transmitted from the main control substrate 1310 to the function display unit 1400). It is preferable to provide an element capable of reducing or removing electromagnetic noise for each wiring FCBL). As a result, it is possible to prevent the main control MPU 1310a from being affected by electromagnetic noise that enters through the wiring FCBL. Therefore, the main control MPU 1310a can be protected from the wiring FCBL through which electromagnetic noise can enter.

  Examples of such elements include resistors and filter circuits. From the observation result of the waveform of electromagnetic wave noise, it is known that the waveform width of electromagnetic wave noise is within about 2 microseconds (μs). Designed to pass.

  In addition to resistors, filter circuits, and the like, EMC countermeasure parts (coils, beads, capacitors, etc.) can also be cited as such elements. When coils and beads are used, electric power is supplied to a plurality of wirings FCBL. When using capacitors, they are inserted so as to be electrically connected in parallel to the plurality of wirings FCBL. Further, when a more rapid attenuation characteristic is required, a circuit configured by combining a coil and a capacitor may be inserted into each of the plurality of wirings FCBL, or a bead and a capacitor Circuits configured by combining these may be inserted.

Further, the attacker unit 2400 includes a first receiving sensor 2404 that detects the game ball B received in the first receiving port 2007, and a second receiving sensor that detects the game ball B received in the second receiving port 2008. 2405 and the first receiving port 2007 are opened and closed (the game ball B received in the grand prize winning port 2005 and distributed inside is distributed to either the first receiving port 2007 or the second receiving port 2008). And a sorting solenoid 2416 that opens and closes the sorting piece 2415 according to the first special lottery result or the second special lottery result lottered by receiving the game ball B into the first starting port 2002 or the second starting port 2004 It is equipped with. The distribution piece 2415 is formed in a plate shape extending in the front-rear direction so that the right end of the distribution piece 2415 extends in the front-rear direction, and opens upward by moving forward and backward. The first receiving port 2007 (V winning port) can be opened and closed. The sorting piece 2415 moves forward to close the first receiving port 2007, guides the game ball B received in the big prize opening 2005 to the right, and is always opened upward. It can be accepted in 2008. Further, the sorting piece 2415 retreats by the driving of the sorting solenoid 2416 to open the first receiving port 2007, and the game ball B received in the big prize opening 2005 is highly probable for the first receiving port 2007. Can be accepted. The sorting piece 2415 closes the first receiving port 2007 when the sorting solenoid 2416 is OFF (when not energized), and opens the first receiving port 2007 when the sorting solenoid 2416 is ON (when energized). Let In other words, the sorting piece 2415 can sort the game balls B received in the special winning opening 2005 so as to be received in either the first receiving port 2007 or the second receiving port 2008.

  When the attacker unit 2400 is attached to the front surface of the panel board 1110, the general winning opening 2001 is located below the gate portion 2003 (below the gate portion 2003) on the downstream side of the distribution passage group 2520 and the gate portion 2003 in the center accessory 2500 described later. The second starting port 2004 is positioned at a height between the stage 2503 of the center accessory 2500 and the first starting port 2002 of the starting port unit 2100, and is also a big winning port. 2005 is located below the first start port 2002 of the start port unit 2100. Moreover, in the state attached to the panel board 1110, there are a plurality of obstacle nails N between the lower end and the upper end (general winning port 2001) of the distribution passage group 2520 of the center accessory 2500.

  Next, the flow of the game ball B in the attacker unit 2400 will be described. Since the general winning port 2001 and the second starting port 2004 of the attacker unit 2400 are positioned above the stage 2503 of the center accessory 2500 in the assembled state on the game board 5, the game ball B is released from the stage 2503. Even if it is released, it will not be accepted into the general winning port 2001 or the second starting port 2004 of the attacker unit 2400. Therefore, only the game ball B that has flowed down the right side (distribution passage group 2520) of the center accessory 2500 may be received in the general winning port 2001 or the second start port 2004 of the attacker unit 2400. Downstream of the distribution passage group 2520 of the center accessory 2500, an attacker left passage 2421, a general winning port 2001, and an attacker right passage 2422 are opened side by side from the left, and the game balls flowing down the right side of the center accessory 2500 B will enter either of them.

  When the game ball B supplied through the distribution passage group 2520 of the center accessory 2500 and above the general winning port 2001 of the attacker unit 2400 is received by the general winning port 2001, it is detected by the general winning port sensor 2401. In the rear side of the game panel 1100, the game panel 1100 is discharged downward (on the board holder 1200). If the game ball B enters the attacker left passage 2421 on the left side of the general winning opening 2001 without being received in the general winning opening 2001, it falls onto the second starting opening guide shelf 2423, and According to the inclination, it flows to the second start port 2004 side (left side). In a state where the second start port 2004 is closed by the second start port door 2411, the second start port 2004 flows to the left on the second start port door 2411 and is discharged to the left from the left end of the second start port guide shelf 2423. . When the game ball B passes through the second start port guide shelf 2423, if the second start port 2004 is opened, the game ball B is accepted into the second start port 2004 with a very high probability.

  The game ball B received in the second start port 2004 is detected by the second start port sensor 2402 and then discharged downward (on the board holder 1200) on the rear side of the game panel 1100. When the game ball B that has flowed down the right side of the center accessory 2500 is not received by the second start opening 2004, it is discharged to the left big winning opening 2005 side through the second start opening guide shelf 2423.

  Since a plurality of obstacle nails N are planted on the left side of the second start port guide shelf 2423, the game ball B released to the left from the second start port guide shelf 2423 is Or it will flow down to either of the intermediate passage 2427 side. When the prize winning opening 2005 is closed by the prize winning entrance door 2413 when it flows down to the prize winning entrance 2005 side, it is guided to the left by the prize winning entrance door 2413 and from the left end of the prize winning entrance guide shelf 2424. Released to the left. When the big prize opening door 2413 closing the big prize opening 2005 is retreated and the big prize opening 2005 is opened, the game ball B flowing down from the second start opening guide shelf 2423 to the big prize opening 2005 side, Accepted at Grand Prize Winner 2005. The game ball B received in the big prize opening 2005 is detected by the big prize opening sensor 2403 and then discharged downward (on the board holder 1200) on the rear side of the gaming panel 1100.

  The game ball B that has entered the intermediate passage 2427 from the second start-port guide shelf 2423 and the game ball B that has been released to the left from the winning prize guide guide shelf 2424 pass through the out-port 1008 and the rear side of the game panel 1100. Is discharged downward (on the substrate holder 1200).

  On the other hand, the game ball B supplied above the general winning opening 2001 of the attacker unit 2400 through the distribution passage group 2520 of the center accessory 2500 is not received by the general winning opening 2001, and is placed on the right side of the general winning opening 2001. When entering the attacker right passage 2422, it comes into contact with the stepped portion 1005 a of the right rail 1005 and rebounds to the left. In the present embodiment, since the second start port guide shelf 2423 is provided so that the extension line of the second start port guide shelf 2423 coincides with the step portion 1005a of the right rail 1005, it enters the attacker right passage 2422. Then, the game ball B bounced off at the step portion 1005a of the right rail 1005 falls (circulates) onto the second starting port guide shelf 2423 through the communication port 2425 with a high probability.

  When the game ball B that enters the attacker right passage 2422 and contacts the stepped portion 1005a of the right rail 1005 bounces upward from the communication port 2425, the partition portion 2428 that forms the upper end side of the communication port 2425 Since the inclined portion 2429 is provided at the lower end, the game ball B comes into contact with the inclined portion 2429. Since the inclined portion 2429 is inclined so that the upper end is located on the right side with respect to the lower end, the game ball B that is in contact with the inclined portion 2429 is reflected toward the lower right side passage 2426 of the attacker, The attacker enters the lower right passage 2426. Further, when the game ball B abutting against the stepped portion 1005a of the right rail 1005 bounces downward from the communication port 2425, the game ball B enters the attacker lower right passage 2426.

  The game ball B that has entered the attacker lower right passage 2426 is discharged from the out port 1008 to the outside of the game area 5a without an opportunity to be received at the second start port 2004 and the big winning port 2005.

  Also, the attacker unit 2400 includes a sub-function display unit 2450 above the second start port 2004. The sub-function display unit 2450 has a plurality of (here, six) full-color LEDs. The sub-function display unit 2450 is interlocked with the normal symbol display, the first special symbol display, and the second special symbol display of the function display unit 1400, and the gate unit is activated by the lighting / flashing of the LED, the emission color, and the like. Displays the normal lottery result drawn by passing the game ball B with respect to 2003, the first special lottery result and the second special lottery result drawn by accepting the game ball B to the first start port 2002 and the second start port 2004 To do.

  Furthermore, the attacker unit 2400 includes a magnetic sensor 2470 that detects magnetism (see FIG. 64). This magnetic sensor 2470 is for detecting fraud using a magnet.

[5-8d. Center character]
The center accessory 2500 of the front unit 2000 is disposed above the start port unit 2100 in the game area 5a and slightly above the center in front view, and is attached to the front surface of the panel plate 1110 of the game panel 1100. ing. The center accessory 2500 is formed in a frame shape, and the effect display device 1600 disposed on the rear side of the game panel 1100 and the various effect units provided in the back unit 3000 can be viewed from the front through the frame. it can. Further, the center accessory 2500 is formed substantially transparently, and the rear side (back unit 3000) can be visually recognized.

  The frame-shaped center accessory 2500 has the entire circumference excluding the lower side protruding forward from the front surface of the panel plate 1110 of the game panel 1100, and the game ball B that is driven into the game area 5 a Can not invade.

  The center accessory 2500 has a warp inlet 2501 in which a game ball B in the game area 5a is open so that the game ball B in the game area 5a can enter, and a game ball B that has entered the warp inlet 2501 can be discharged to the outer peripheral surface on the left side when viewed from the front. A warp outlet 2502 that opens inside, and a stage 2503 that can be released into the game area 5a after rolling the game ball B released from the warp outlet 2502 in the left-right direction.

  The stage 2503 of the center accessory 2500 has a curved shape that is depressed in the center in the left-right direction, and corresponds to a position corresponding to the position immediately above the first start opening 2002 of the start opening unit 2100, that is, the center accessory 2500 is placed on the game panel 1100 (panel plate). 1110) is formed in a wavy shape (W-shape) such that the substantially central position in the left-right direction is slightly higher than the left and right sides. In the stage 2503, a portion (central discharge portion 2503a) that is slightly higher than the left and right sides at the center in the left-right direction and a lowest portion (side discharge portion 2503b) on both the left and right sides are directed forward. It inclines so that it may become low, and the game ball | bowl B can be discharge | released into the game area | region 5a from those parts.

  In the state where the center accessory 2500 is assembled to the game board 5, the heightened portion (central discharge portion 2503 a) at the center in the left-right direction of the stage 2503 is located immediately above the first start port 2002 of the start port unit 2100. ing. As a result, when the game ball B is released from the central release portion 2503a at the center of the stage 2503, it is received in the first start port 2002 with a very high probability.

  The center accessory 2500 includes a gate portion 2003 provided at a position lower than the center in the vertical direction and on the right side of the outer peripheral surface on the right side. The gate portion 2003 has a size that allows only one game ball B to pass therethrough and is provided with a gate sensor 2506 that detects the passage of the game ball. The gate portion 2003 is provided with a space through which only one game ball B can pass between the gate portion 2003 and the frame-shaped outer peripheral surface of the center accessory 2500.

  Further, the center accessory 2500 forms a part of the upper outer peripheral surface, and an upper right peripheral wall portion 2510 that is inclined so as to become lower toward the right from a position on the left side than the center in the left-right direction , And a distribution passage group 2520 including a plurality of passages through which the game ball B can be distributed. The flow passage group 2520 extends vertically from the vicinity of the right end of the upper right peripheral wall portion 2510 to above the gate portion 2003.

  As shown in FIGS. 30 and 31, the distribution passage group 2520 is provided outside the frame of the center accessory 2500, and is provided adjacent to the first distribution passage 2521 and the left side of the first distribution passage 2521. A second distribution passage 2522. The first distribution passage 2521 extends in a circular arc shape along the peripheral edge (right rail 1005) of the game area 5a from the inlet side at the upper end, the lower end is bent in a crank shape to the left, and the outlet is downward. It is open toward. The exit at the lower end of the first distribution passage 2521 is located slightly to the right with respect to the top of the gate portion 2003.

  The second flow passage 2522 has an upper end inlet that is open to the left with respect to the inlet of the first flow passage 2521 and is bent in a crank shape to the right near the upper end. Adjacent to the circulation passage 2521, it extends downward in a circular arc shape, bends in a crank shape to the left in the vicinity of the lower end, then bends in a crank shape to the right, and the outlet is adjacent to the outlet of the first circulation passage 2521. It is open toward. As a result, the second circulation passage 2522 can attenuate the circulation speed of the game ball B more than the first circulation passage 2521. The first distribution passage 2521 and the second distribution passage 2522 are provided with a plurality of protrusions 2523 at intervals in the distribution direction of the game balls B, and the game balls B abut on the protrusions 2523. Therefore, the distribution speed can be suppressed.

  The center accessory 2500 is located on the upstream side of the distribution passage group 2520 between the upper right peripheral wall portion 2510 and the outer rail 1001 (periphery of the game area 5a) of the front component member 1000 when assembled to the game board 5. An upstream space 2511 in which the game ball B can be circulated is formed. Further, in the assembled state in the game board 5, the upper end entrance of the first distribution passage 2521 of the distribution passage group 2520 is located directly below the stop portion 1006, and the first distribution passage 2521 is connected to the right rail 1005 (game). It extends along the periphery of the region 5a. Further, a gap through which the game ball B can pass is formed between the gate portion 2003 of the center accessory 2500 and the right rail 1005 (periphery of the game area 5a).

[5-8e. The flow of game balls through the distribution channel group of the center role]
Next, the flow of the game ball B through the distribution passage group 2520 of the center accessory 2500 in the game area 5a will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 30 to 32 and the like. In the assembled state in the game board 5, a plurality of obstacle nails N are provided between the distribution passage group 2520 of the center accessory 2500 and the gate part 2003, and between the gate part 2003 and the general winning opening 2001 of the attacker unit 2400. Has been planted. The plurality of obstacle nails N planted between the distribution passage group 2520 and the gate portion 2003 are such that the game balls B that have circulated through the first distribution passage 2521 are positioned on the right side of the gate portion 2003 (the gate portion 2003 and the right rail 1005). ), And is adjusted to circulate with high probability. In addition, the plurality of obstacle nails N planted between the distribution passage group 2520 and the gate portion 2003 are such that the game balls B that have circulated through the second distribution passage 2522 pass through the gate portion 2003 with a high probability. It has been adjusted. In addition, the plurality of obstacle nails N planted between the distribution passage group 2520 and the gate portion 2003 has a high probability that the game ball B that has circulated through the second distribution passage 2522 is next to the gate portion 2003. It is adjusted to circulate on the left side of 2003.

  On the other hand, in the plurality of obstacle nails N planted between the gate unit 2003 and the general winning opening 2001 of the attacker unit 2400, the game ball B that circulates on the right side of the gate unit 2003 has a high probability of the attacker unit 2400. It is adjusted to enter the attacker right passage 2422. In addition, a plurality of obstacle nails N planted between the gate portion 2003 and the general winning opening 2001 of the attacker unit 2400 are highly likely to be a game ball B that circulates on the gate portion 2003 or the left side of the gate portion 2003. It is adjusted to enter the left attacker left passage 2421 of the general winning opening 2001 of the attacker unit 2400, and is adjusted to be accepted into the general winning opening 2001 with the next highest probability of the attacker left passage 2421.

  In the game board 5 of the present embodiment, when the game ball B is driven with a strength that the game ball B enters above the upper right peripheral wall portion 2510 (upstream space portion 2511) of the center accessory 2500, the distribution passage group 2520 The game ball B flows through either the first distribution passage 2521 or the second distribution passage 2522. More specifically, the game ball B is hit with a strength that abuts against a stop portion 1006 projecting inward from the outer rail 1001 constituting a part of the periphery of the game area 5a (so-called right hitting). ), The game ball B that has come into contact with the stopper 1006 enters the first distribution passage 2521. The game ball B that has entered the first circulation passage 2521 has a high probability to the right of the gate portion 2003 due to a plurality of obstacle nails N that are planted between the downstream end of the first circulation passage 2521 and the gate portion 2003. Pass through. Then, the game ball B that has passed the right side of the gate portion 2003 enters the attacker right passage 2422 with a high probability by the plurality of obstacle nails N that are planted between the gate portion 2003 and the attacker unit 2400. The game ball B that has entered the attacker right passage 2422 circulates through either the second start port guide shelf 2423 or the attacker right lower passage 2426.

  As described above, the game ball B that has circulated through the first distribution passage 2521 does not pass through the gate part 2003 so much, so that the lottery of the result of the normal lottery performed by passing through the gate part 2003 of the game ball B is not performed much, There is a low possibility that the normal lottery result in which the second start port 2004 is opened will be drawn. Therefore, even if the game ball B that has circulated through the first circulation passage 2521 circulates through the second start-out guide shelf 2423 via the attacker right passage 2422, the second start-up port 2004 is often closed. Since the mouth 2004 is not so much received, there are few opportunities to receive benefits such as lottery of the second special lottery result and payout of the game ball B by accepting the game ball B at the second start opening 2004. Therefore, when the game ball B circulates through the first distribution passage 2521, the privilege given to the player is relatively small.

  In addition, although the case where it hit on the right was demonstrated above, the game ball B thrown in by the strength which jumps over the entrance of the 2nd distribution passage 2522 opened near the right end of the upper right peripheral wall part 2510, It will enter into the 1st distribution passage 2521, and will become the result similar to the above.

  On the other hand, when the game ball B driven into the upstream space portion 2511 enters the second circulation passage 2522 and circulates through the second circulation passage 2522, between the downstream end of the second circulation passage 2522 and the gate portion 2003. A lottery of the normal lottery result is performed by passing through the gate portion 2003 with a high probability by the plurality of obstacle nails N that are installed. The game ball B that has passed through the gate portion 2003 enters the attacker left passage 2421 with a high probability by the plurality of obstacle nails N that are planted between the gate portion 2003 and the attacker unit 2400, and from the attacker left passage 2421 The second start port guide shelf 2423 is distributed.

  At this time, since the game ball B passes through the gate part 2003 and the normal lottery result is drawn, if the selected lottery result is “normal hit”, the second start port 2004 has a predetermined pattern. Therefore, there is a possibility that the game ball B is received in the second starting port 2004. When the game ball B is received in the second start port 2004, a lottery of the second special lottery result is performed and a privilege such as a predetermined number of game balls B being paid out is given. Therefore, when the game ball B circulates through the second distribution passage 2522, the privilege given to the player is relatively high (large).

  For this reason, since the player is more likely to receive a privilege in the second distribution passage 2522, the player has a driving strength at which the game ball B enters the upstream space portion 2511, and the game The driving strength of the gaming ball B will be adjusted so that the gaming ball B is driven into the gaming area 5a with the driving strength at which the ball B enters the second distribution passage 2522. A change can be given to the driving operation, which makes it difficult for the player to get bored, and allows the player to enjoy the driving operation of the game ball B aiming at the entrance of the second distribution passage 2522. It is possible to suppress a decrease in the interest of the player in the game.

  In the case where the first special lottery result or the second special lottery result lottery by receiving the game ball B at the first start port 2002 or the second start port 2004 is a “big hit” that generates an advantageous gaming state, etc. The big prize opening 2005 becomes ready to accept the game balls B with a predetermined opening / closing pattern, and when the game balls B are accepted into the big prize opening 2005, many game balls B are paid out. In such an advantageous game state (“big hit game state”), if the player is required to adjust the strength of the game ball B, the player may feel impatient and frustrated. There is a risk of reducing interest in However, in the present embodiment, when the game ball B is hit right and circulates through the first distribution passage 2521, the right side of the gate portion 2003 and the attacker right passage 2422 circulate, and then communicate with the step portion 1005 a of the right rail 1005. The game ball B can be distributed to the big prize opening guidance shelf 2424 side (large prize opening 2005 side) by bouncing back toward the opening 2425 and falling to the second start opening guidance shelf 2423 through the communication port 2425. Therefore, the game ball B can be received into the big prize opening 2005 by an easy driving operation without adjusting the driving operation delicately, and the player can enjoy the game in the advantageous gaming state. At the same time, the driving operation of the game ball B can be sharpened according to the game state, and the decrease in the interest of the player can be suppressed.

[5-8f. Another embodiment of the distribution passage group of the center character
Subsequently, the distribution passage group 2520 of the center accessory 2500 of an embodiment different from the above will be described in detail mainly with reference to FIGS. 33 to 35. FIG. 33 (a) is an enlarged view of the main part showing an embodiment of the distribution passage group of the center accessory different from FIG. 31 and the like, and (b) is a further illustration of the distribution passage group of the center accessory different from (a). It is a principal part enlarged view which shows embodiment. FIG. 34 (a) is an enlarged view of a main part showing an embodiment of a distribution passage group of a center accessory that is further different from FIG. 33, and FIG. FIG. FIG. 35 is an enlarged view of a main part showing an embodiment of the distribution passage group of the center accessory which is further different from those in FIGS. 33 and 34. 33 and 34, the same components as those described above are denoted by the same reference numerals.

  In the embodiment shown in FIG. 33 (a), compared to FIG. It is a thing. This distribution passage group 2520 can also provide the same effects as described above.

  In the embodiment shown in FIG. 33 (b), the angle of the hitting portion 1006 is such that the hitting ball 1006 in the front component member 1000 is likely to rebound to the entrance side of the second circulation passage 2522. And the portion between the inlet of the first circulation passage 2521 and the inlet of the second circulation passage 2522 in the upper right peripheral wall portion 2510 is inclined so that the second circulation passage 2522 side (left side) is lowered. It has been made. This makes it easier for the game ball B to enter the second circulation passage 2522 side, so the adjustment range of the driving strength of the game ball B into which the game ball B enters the second distribution passage 2522 becomes wider. It is possible to easily perform the driving operation of the game ball B aiming at the entrance of the second distribution passage 2522.

  In the embodiment shown in FIG. 34A, in the distribution passage group 2520 of FIGS. 31 and 33, the respective inlets of the first distribution passage 2521 and the second distribution passage 2522 are opened upward. Then, the upstream side of the first distribution passage 2521 and the second distribution passage 2522 is extended to the vicinity of the center in the left-right direction above the center accessory 2500, and the respective inlets are directed leftward in a state of being vertically aligned. It is made to open.

  In this embodiment, a part of the outer rail 1001 (periphery of the game area 5 a) constitutes a part of the first circulation passage 2521, and a part of the upper right peripheral wall portion 2510 is a part of the second circulation passage 2522. Part. In this embodiment, the length in the left-right direction of the upstream space portion 2511 between the upper right peripheral wall portion 2510 and the outer rail 1001 (periphery of the game area 5a) is the first circulation from the left end of the upper right peripheral wall portion 2510. It becomes the length to each entrance of the passage 2521 and the second circulation passage 2522, and is narrower than the upstream space portion 2511 shown in FIG. 31 and FIG.

  In this embodiment, in order to allow the game ball B to enter the entrance of the second circulation passage 2522, the driving strength that comes into contact with the narrower portion on the left side than the entrance of the second circulation passage 2522 in the upper right peripheral wall portion 2510, Since it is necessary to drive the game ball B with the driving strength that directly enters the entrance of the second circulation passage 2522 that opens toward the left, compared to the embodiment of FIG. 31 and FIG. The adjustment range of the driving strength of the game ball B is narrowed. In addition, a game ball B driven into the upstream space portion 2511 on the left side of the entrance of the first circulation passage 2521 and the entrance of the second circulation passage 2522 divides the first circulation passage 2521 and the second circulation passage 2522. When it comes into contact with the left end of the wall portion (the portion between the two entrances), there is a possibility of deviating from the upstream space portion 2511 depending on the momentum and angle of the bounced game ball B to the left. That is, even if the game ball B is hit with the strength to enter the upstream space portion 2511, it deviates leftward from the upstream space portion 2511 and does not enter any of the first circulation passage 2521 and the second circulation passage 2522. There is a possibility that the left side of the center object 2500 may be distributed. For this reason, since the difficulty level for the game ball B driving operation is increased, the player's willingness to drive the game ball B can be increased, and the player can insert game media. It is possible to entertain the operation and suppress a decrease in interest.

Thereby, since all the rotary decoration body LED groups 3250 and the intermediate LED group 3255 emit light with high luminance, it is difficult for the player to visually recognize the plurality of rotary decoration bodies 3210. By changing the position of 3210, it is possible to show the player the effect that the rotating decorative body 3210 moves without the player's knowledge, and the player can be surprised and entertained.

  Further, in the back second rendering unit 3200, the plurality of LEDs 3241 mounted on the back second decorative board 3240 can appropriately emit light, so that the rotating decorative body LED group 3250 is changed from the first rotating decorative body LED group 3250a. , Second rotation decoration body LED group 3250b, third rotation decoration body LED group 3250c, fourth rotation decoration body LED group 3250d, fifth rotation decoration body LED group 3250e, sixth rotation decoration body LED group 3250f, seventh rotation decoration Body LED group 3250g, eighth rotation decoration body LED group 3250h, ninth rotation decoration body LED group 3250i, tenth rotation decoration body LED group 3250j, eleventh rotation decoration body LED group 3250k, and twelve rotation decoration body LED group By emitting light (lighting) in order, such as 3250l, the player can have a light-emitting effect in which light is rotating in a predetermined direction. So it can be, it is possible to entertain the player. When stopping the rotation of the light, the player's expectation can be enhanced depending on where the rotation of the light stops, and the player can be entertained.

  Note that when the rotation of light is stopped, the rotation speed of the light is gradually decreased, and the first LED group 3251, the second LED group 3252, the third LED group 3253, and the fourth in the rotating decorative body LED group 3250. The LED group 3254 and then the intermediate LED group 3255 may be lit in order so that the light moves in small increments in the rotation direction and stops slowly. Thereby, since the position where light stops becomes fine, it can be made difficult for the player to predict at which position the rotation of light stops, and the player can be excited and entertained.

  In addition, as described above, since the light can be rotated (turned around), by turning on and off in order in the circumferential direction, the lighting effect that measures time like a clock and the remaining time can be reduced. The suggested light-emitting effect can also be performed, and the player can be entertained and the decrease in interest can be suppressed.

  Further, in each of the rotating decoration body LED groups 3250, for example, a first LED group 3251, a second LED group 3252, a third LED group 3253, a fourth LED group 3254, a first LED group 3251,. The light may be emitted in any order. Thereby, while it is possible to show the player a light-emitting effect in which light is rotating in one rotation decoration body LED group 3250, the rotation decoration body 3210 is not revolving with respect to the player. An illusion of rotating (spinning) can be provided, and the player can be entertained.

If the LED 3241 is provided on the rotating decorative body 3210 that revolves while rotating, the player can have a strong illusion and the movement of the rotating decorative body 3210 that is decorated with light emission can be made. It can be more entertaining, and it can suppress a decrease in the interest of the player in the game. .

  Further, since the plurality of LEDs 3241 including the rotation decoration body LED group 3250 and the intermediate LED group 3255 are provided within the range of the revolution trajectory of the rotation decoration body 3210, the plurality of LEDs 3241 are arranged in an annular shape. When all the LEDs 3241 except for the LED 3241 included in the upper left corner LED group 3256, the upper right corner LED group 3257, the lower left corner LED group 3258, and the prize opening LED group 3259 are caused to emit light, an annular light emitting effect is shown to the player. be able to. In addition, since the rotational decoration body LED group 3250 and the intermediate LED group 3255 are alternately provided in the revolving direction (circumferential direction) of the rotational decoration body 3210, the rotational decoration body LED group 3250 and the intermediate LED group 3255 are circumferentially connected. When the light is emitted alternately in the direction, the player can be shown a light emitting decoration in which light rotates on the circumference. Furthermore, since the plurality of LEDs 3241 are provided within the range of the revolution trajectory of the rotating decorative body 3210, the plurality of LEDs 3241 are arranged in an annular shape with a predetermined width. By emitting light sequentially from the outside to the outside, the player can show a light-emitting effect in which the light circle spreads outward, or by causing the plurality of LEDs 3241 to emit light sequentially from the outside of the ring to the inside. It is possible to show the player a light emission effect that converges inward. As described above, since various light-emitting effects can be shown to the player, it is possible to make the player difficult to get bored by various effects, and it is possible to suppress a decrease in the interest of the player in the game.

  In addition, when performing a light-emitting effect in which light rotates in the revolution direction of the rotation decoration body 3210, each rotation decoration body LED group 3250 has the first LED group 3251 and the second LED group 3252 in the rotation direction of the rotation decoration body 3210. Since the third LED group 3253 and the fourth LED group 3254 are divided, the movement of light in the revolving direction can be made finer. Can show. In addition, since the movement of the light in the revolving direction of the rotating decorative body 3210 becomes finer, the rotation speed of the light rotating in the circumferential direction can be made slower, and it is difficult to get tired of the player by various lighting effects. Can be suppressed.

  In addition, by appropriately combining the light emission effect by the plurality of LEDs 3241 as described above and the movable effect of revolving while rotating the rotating decorative body 3210, an effect that could not be seen in a conventional pachinko machine is played by the player. The player can have a strong impact on the player, can attract the player's interest strongly, can entertain the player, and can suppress a decrease in interest.

  In addition, since the plurality of LEDs 3241 are grouped into the plurality of rotating decoration body LED groups 3250 and the plurality of intermediate LED groups 3255, each of the rotation decoration body LED groups 3250 and the intermediate LED groups 3255 is controlled to emit light. As a result, the load on the control can be reduced as compared with the case where the plurality of LEDs 3241 are controlled to emit light one by one. Can be avoided, the control circuit in the peripheral control board 1510 and the like can be simplified, and the cost can be reduced.

  Furthermore, since the rotational decoration body LED group 3250 and the intermediate LED group 3255 are alternately provided in the revolution direction (circumferential direction) of the rotational decoration body 3210, for example, only the rotational decoration body LED group 3250 is provided at regular time intervals. The speed of light rotating in the circumferential direction is different between the case where light is emitted sequentially in the circumferential direction and the case where the rotating decoration body LED group 3250 and the intermediate LED group 3255 are alternately emitted in the circumferential direction at the same time interval. It is possible to reduce the load on the control of the light emission effect, and to allow the player to enjoy the light emission effect in which the light rotates at different speeds, and to suppress the lowering of the player's interest it can.

  Further, since the back second outer decorative body 3228 and the back second inner decorative body 3229 having translucency are provided between the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210 and the plurality of LEDs 3241, the back second outer decorative body 3228 is provided. Since the LED 3241 on the back second decorative board 3240 is difficult to visually recognize from the front by the back second inner decorative body 3229, it is difficult for the player to notice the presence of the LED 3241 provided separately from the rotating decorative body 3210. Therefore, it is possible to easily make the illusion that the LED 3241 is provided on the rotating decorative body 3210, and it is possible to further increase the impact of the light emitting decoration of the rotating decorative body 3210 that revolves while rotating. The effect by the decoration body 3210 can be more enjoyed, and the lowering of interest in the player's game is suppressed. Door can be.

  In addition, since the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210 have special rotating decorative bodies 3211 provided with a special decoration (three-sided decoration), the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210 are caused to revolve while rotating. The special rotation decoration body 3211 can make the player throbbing depending on whether or not the revolution is stopped at a specific position, and the player can entertain the movable effect by the plurality of rotation decoration bodies 3210. The decrease can be suppressed.

  Further, a rotational position detection sensor 3231 for detecting that one rotational decoration body 3210 is located at a specific position on the revolution circumference including the stop position, and one special rotational decoration body 3211 are located at the specific position. And a special rotational position detection sensor 3232 for detecting that the rotational rotational body 3212 of the plurality of rotational decorative bodies 3210 is located at a specific position, only the rotational position detection sensor 3231 is provided. When the special rotation decorative body 3211 is located at a specific position, the rotation position detection sensor 3231 and the special rotation position detection sensor 3232 detect the rotation, and the detection by the rotation position detection sensor 3231 and the special rotation are detected. Depending on the combination of detection by the position detection sensor 3232, the normal rotation decoration body 3212 or the special rotation decoration body 3211 is placed at a specific position. Les it is possible to detect whether located. Therefore, when one of the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210 is caused to stop revolving at a specific position, the rotation detecting sensor 3231 and the special rotating position detecting sensor 3232 are used so that the normal rotating decorative body revolving while rotating. 3212 and the special rotating decorative body 3211 can be revolved and stopped at a specific position, so that it is possible to show the player whether or not the special rotating decorative body 3211 stops revolving at the specific position. The player can be excited and entertained, and a decrease in the interest of the player in the game can be suppressed.

  Further, a detection piece 3221c for detecting the normal rotation decoration body 3212 and the special rotation decoration body 3211 located at the specific position, and a special detection piece for detecting the special rotation decoration body 3211 located at the specific position. 3221d is provided in the drive ring 3221, so that the detection piece 3221c and the special detection piece 3221d do not rotate as compared with the case where the detection piece or the special detection piece is provided in the rotating decorative body 3210. The configuration of the detection piece 3221c and the special detection piece 3221d can be simplified, and the pachinko machine 1 having the above-described effects can be easily realized.

  In addition, since a plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210 can be revolved while rotating by one back second drive motor 3222, the rotation and revolution of the rotating decorative body 3210 are driven by separate drive motors. In comparison, the structure of the drive mechanism applied to the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210 can be simplified, the driving mechanism can be reduced, and control of the movable effect of the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210 can be controlled. The load can be reduced. In addition, as described above, since the driving mechanism applied to the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210 can be reduced, a space for arranging the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210 can be relatively widened. The rotary decoration body 3210 can be made larger to make it stand out from the player side, and the player's interest can be strongly attracted to the plurality of rotation decoration bodies 3210.

  Further, since the shaft portion 3210a protrudes rearward from the LED 3241, the rotating body gear 3225 provided at the rear end is rearward of the LED 3241, and the fixed gear portion 3220b and the drive ring 3221 are naturally rearward of the LED 3241. The rotating body gear 3225, the fixed gear portion 3220b, the drive ring 3221 and the like do not block the light emitted forward from the LED 3241, and the plurality of rotating decoration bodies 3210 can be surely decorated with light emission.

  Further, a back second drive motor 3222 for rotating the drive ring 3221 is provided on the outside of the drive ring 3221, and the inside of the fixed gear portion 3220 b (inside of the through hole 3229 a) can be widened, so that it faces the inside. The display screen of the effect display device 1600 can be made easier to see, and the effect of the effect image can be more easily exhibited.

  In addition, since the drive ring 3221 is provided outside the fixed gear portion 3220b and the back second drive motor 3222 is provided outside the drive ring 3221, the back side of the drive ring 3221 is positioned substantially at the same position as the front-rear direction. Since the two-drive motor 3222 can be provided, an increase in the thickness of the drive mechanism applied to the plurality of rotary decoration bodies 3210 can be suppressed. Further, the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210 are formed in a flat plate shape, and the thickness in the front-rear direction applied to the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210 can be reduced. From these things, since the thickness in the front-rear direction can be reduced, the diameter of the rotating decorative body 3210 can be made larger by relatively widening the space for arranging the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210. It is possible to make the player stand out from the player side, attract the player's interest strongly to the plurality of rotating decoration bodies 3210, and provide other members in front of and behind the plurality of rotating decoration bodies 3210. Thus, by using the other members provided to produce the effects, it is possible to show the player more various effects, making it difficult for the player to get bored and suppressing the decrease in interest.

  Furthermore, according to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment, the game ball B driven into the upper part of the game area 5a along the periphery from the left side is a gate as a privilege granting section provided in the game area 5a. When the player passes the part 2003 or is accepted into the general winning port 2001, the second starting port 2004, and the big winning port 2005 of the attacker unit 2400 as a privilege granting unit, a predetermined lottery (for example, a normal lottery that is advantageous to the player) A lottery of a result or a special lottery result, a payout of a predetermined number of game balls B, etc.) are given, and the player is made to perform a game ball B driving operation aiming at a privilege granting part such as the gate part 2003 You can play games.

  In the game area 5a, an upstream space 2511 is provided above the right upper right and right peripheral wall 2510 above the frame-shaped center accessory 2500 and on the downstream side of the upstream space 2511. Since the game balls B are distributed through different routes depending on the driving strength and the distribution passage group 2520 provided on the upstream side of the gate portion 2003 is provided, the first distribution constituting the distribution passage group 2520 is provided. The probability that the game ball B passes through the gate part 2003 on the downstream side differs for each of the passage 2521 and the second circulation passage 2522. Therefore, the game ball B is placed at the entrance of the second distribution passage 2522 where the game ball B enters the upstream space portion 2511 and has a high probability that the game ball B will pass through the gate portion 2003. The driving strength of the gaming ball B must be adjusted so that the gaming ball B is driven into the gaming area 5a with the driving strength at which the player enters the game ball B. It is possible to give changes, to make it difficult for the player to get bored, and to allow the player to enter the game ball B for the desired entrance of the second distribution passage 2522 Therefore, it is possible to suppress a decrease in interest in the game of the player.

  In addition, a stop portion 1006 protrudes inward from the periphery of the game area 5a in the vicinity of the right end of the upstream space portion 2511, and an inlet of the first flow passage 2521 is provided in the vicinity of the stop portion 1006. Therefore, the game ball B is driven with a strength that abuts against the stop portion 1006 (for example, a specific or higher driving strength at which the game ball B circulates (rolls) along the periphery of the game area 5a). Then, the game ball B that has come into contact with the stop portion 1006 enters the entrance of the first flow passage 2521 in the vicinity of the stop portion 1006 in the flow passage group 2520 with a high probability. Accordingly, when aiming at the first circulation passage 2521, the game ball B is driven with a strength that abuts against the stopper portion 1006, and when aiming at the other second circulation passage 2522, the strength does not abut against the stopper portion 1006. Therefore, the game ball B can be driven in, the game ball B can be driven in sharply, and the player can be entertained and the decrease in interest can be suppressed.

  And the chance that the game ball B that has circulated through the first distribution passage 2521 provided with an entrance in the vicinity of the stop 1006 has a low probability of passing through the downstream gate portion 2003, and the privilege is given. The game ball 5 is discharged out of the game area 5a without causing the player to adjust the driving strength of the game ball B so that the game ball B does not enter the entrance of the first distribution passage 2521. Thus, it is possible to give a change to the driving operation of the game ball B, to make the player hard to get tired, and to aim at the entrance of the remaining second distribution passage 2522 to the player. The driving operation of the ball B can be enjoyed, and a decrease in the interest of the player with respect to the game can be suppressed.

  In addition, since the distribution passage group 2520 is provided in the direction in which the game ball B is driven, the distribution passage group 2520 (the first distribution passage 2521 and the second distribution passage) that distribute through different routes according to the driving strength of the game ball B. The circulation passage 2522) can be reliably realized, and the pachinko machine 1 having the above-described effects can be obtained.

  Further, since the upstream space portion 2511 is provided on the upstream side of the distribution passage group 2520, in order for the player to enter the game ball B into the entrance of the desired first distribution passage 2521 or the second distribution passage 2522, It is necessary to drive the game ball B into the game area 5a with the driving strength to enter the space portion 2511 and with the driving strength to enter the desired first distribution passage 2521 or the second distribution passage 2522. Yes, it is possible to further increase the difficulty level of the game ball B driving operation, and to make the player enjoy the game ball B driving operation and to suppress a decrease in interest.

  Further, since the first circulation passage 2521 and the second circulation passage 2522 are adjacent to each other, the entrances thereof are adjacent to each other. Therefore, the game ball B is caused by a slight difference in the driving strength of the game ball B. Because the entrance of the distribution passage through which the player enters is easy to be different, it is possible to increase the difficulty of the player to drive the game ball B, and to entertain the player to drive the game ball B, and to reduce the interest Can be suppressed.

  In addition, since the first distribution passage 2521 and the second distribution passage 2522 are adjacent to each other, the first distribution passage 2521 and the second distribution passage 2522 are aggregated to some extent. The inside of the frame of the accessory 2500 can be made relatively wide, and the player can enjoy the game within the game area 5a and the effect within the frame of the center accessory 2500, thereby suppressing the decrease in interest. it can.

  In the above embodiment, the flow passage group 2520 is configured by two flow passages of the first flow passage 2521 and the second flow passage 2522. However, the present invention is not limited to this. It may be configured by two distribution passages.

  Further, in the above embodiment, the game ball B that has entered the attacker right passage 2422 of the attacker unit 2400 is guided onto the second start-port guidance shelf 2423 with a high probability by contact with the stepped portion 1005a of the right rail 1005. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the game ball B that has entered the attacker right passage 2422 may be guided to the attacker right lower passage 2426 with high probability.

[6. Control configuration]
Next, a control configuration for performing various controls of the pachinko machine 1 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 64 is a block diagram schematically showing the control configuration of the pachinko machine. As shown in the figure, the main control configuration of the pachinko machine 1 includes a main control board 1310 and a peripheral control board 1510 attached to the game board 5, and a payout control board 633 attached to the main body frame 4. Each control is shared. The main control board 1310 controls a game operation (game progress). The peripheral control board 1510 includes a peripheral control unit 1511 that controls various effects during the game based on commands from the main control board 1310, a door frame effect display device 152, and a door frame sub-control based on commands from the peripheral control unit 1511.

The payout control board 633 includes a payout control unit 633 a that controls the payout of the game ball B and the like, and a launch control unit 633 b that controls the launch of the game ball B by the rotation operation of the handle 111.

[6-1. Main control board]
The main control board 1310 for controlling the progress of the game is not shown in detail, but the main control board is a microprocessor with a built-in ROM for storing various processing programs and various commands, a RAM for temporarily storing data, and the like. MPU 1310a, a main control I / O port as an input / output device (I / O device), a main control input circuit to which detection signals from various detection switches are input, and a main control solenoid drive for driving various solenoids For displaying the number of game balls collected by a circuit, a setting indicator 1310g for displaying a set value and displaying an error, and an out port 1008 provided in a game area 5a formed in the game board 5 A base monitor 1310h. In addition to the built-in ROM and RAM, the main control MPU 1310a incorporates a watchdog timer for monitoring its operation (system), a function for preventing fraud, and the like.

  The main control MPU 1310a includes a built-in RAM (hereinafter referred to as “main control built-in RAM”) and a built-in ROM (hereinafter referred to as “main control built-in ROM”). Further, a watchdog timer (hereinafter referred to as “main control built-in WDT”) for monitoring the operation (system), a function for preventing fraud, and the like are also incorporated.

  Further, the main control MPU 1310a has a built-in nonvolatile RAM. In this non-volatile RAM, a unique ID code with a unique code (a code that exists only in the world) for identifying an individual by the manufacturer that manufactured the main control MPU 1310a is stored in advance. Since the ID code once attached is stored in the nonvolatile RAM, it cannot be rewritten using an external device. The main control MPU 1310a can take out and refer to the ID code from the nonvolatile RAM.

  The main control MPU 1310a also includes a circuit that is forcibly reset by hardware when affected by electrical noise (hereinafter referred to as “built-in reset circuit”). The built-in reset circuit monitors the contents of a predetermined register of the main control MPU 1310a and forces the main control MPU 1310a to be affected by electrical noise when the register changes to an inconsistent content. It is a circuit to reset. Such a forced reset by the built-in reset circuit has a mechanism that cannot be controlled and invalidated by a user program. Therefore, when a forced reset is performed by the built-in reset circuit, the main control MPU 1310a is reset without executing the main control side power-off process described later, and again executes the main control-side power-on process described later. Will be. In this case, since the main control side power-off process is not executed, as will be described later, a checksum (sum value) error of the main control built-in RAM always occurs, so the contents of the main control built-in RAM are completely erased ( Will be cleared). Even if the main control MPU 1310a is forcibly reset by the built-in reset circuit, a reset signal is not output from the built-in reset circuit of the main control MPU 1310a to the payout control board 633. Only the MPU 1310a) is restarted, and the payout control board 633 is maintained in the activated state.

  The main control MPU 1310a also uses a hardware random number circuit (hereinafter referred to as “main control built-in hardware”) that updates a big hit determination random number for use in determining whether or not to generate a big hit gaming state among various random numbers related to the game. "Random number circuit"). The main random number circuit with built-in main control generates a random number within a predetermined numerical range (in this embodiment, a numerical range of 0 to 65535 as a minimum value is set in advance as a minimum value), and generates an initial value. The circuit configuration is such that a predetermined value is not fixed (that is, the initial value is not fixed), and a different value is set each time the main control MPU 1310a is reset. Specifically, when the main control MPU 1310a is reset, the hard random number circuit with built-in main control first sets a clock signal (main control) to the main control MPU 1310a with an initial value within a predetermined numerical range. Other values within a predetermined numerical range are extracted at a high speed on the basis of a clock signal output from a crystal oscillator (not shown) provided separately from the control MPU 1310a, and within a predetermined numerical range. Once all the values in are extracted, one value in the predetermined numerical range is extracted again, and another value in the predetermined numerical range is quickly extracted based on the clock signal input to the main control MPU 1310a. Extract values one after another without duplication. The main control built-in hard random number circuit repeats such a high-speed lottery, and the main control MPU 1310a uses the value extracted by the main control built-in hard random number circuit at the time of acquiring a value from the main control built-in hard random number circuit as the random number for determining the big hit It is supposed to be set as.

  The main control input circuit is not provided with a reset terminal for forcibly resetting information in which detection signals from various sensors are input to the various input terminals, and does not have a reset function. For this reason, the main control input circuit is configured as a circuit to which a system reset signal from a main control system reset (not shown) is not input. In other words, the main control input circuit outputs the various signals based on the information from the various output terminals because the information based on the detection signals from the various sensors input to the various input terminals is not reset by the main control system reset. Is configured as a circuit.

  In this embodiment, the first start port sensor 2101, the second start port sensor 2402, the gate sensor 2506, and the big prize port sensor 2403 use non-contact type electromagnetic proximity switches. On the other hand, the general winning opening sensor 2401 and the general winning opening sensor 3001 use contact type ON / OFF operation type mechanical switches. This is because the game ball B frequently enters the first start port 2002 and the second start port 2004 and frequently passes through the gate part 2003, so the first start port sensor 2101 and the second start port sensor 2402 are used. , And the detection of the game ball B by the gate sensor 2506 occurs frequently.

Detection of B also occurs frequently. For this reason, the proximity winning opening sensor 2403 also uses a proximity switch with high durability and long life. In addition, since the game ball B launched in the game area 5a is collected in a large amount by the out port 1008 provided in the game area 5a formed in the game board 5, the game ball B is also detected by the out port sensor 3032. Occurs frequently. For this reason, a proximity switch with high durability and long life is also used for the out-port sensor 3032. On the other hand, detection by the general winning opening sensor 2401 and the general winning opening sensor 3001 does not occur frequently in the general winning opening 2001 where the game balls B do not frequently enter. Therefore, the general winning opening sensor 2401 and the general winning opening sensor 3001 are mechanical switches that have a shorter life than the proximity switch. It should be noted that a proximity switch having a high durability and a long life may be used regardless of whether or not the game ball B frequently enters the general winning opening 2001.

Extract from display control ROM and output to VDP. In this way, the display control MPU extracts screen data arranged in time series in the schedule data one by one from the top screen data from the display control ROM and outputs the extracted data to the VDP.

  When screen data output from the display control MPU is input, the VDP extracts sprite data from the image RAM based on the input screen data and displays it on the door frame effect display device 152 and the effect display device 1600. Drawing data is generated, and the generated drawing data is output to the door frame effect display device 152 and the effect display device 1600. Further, when the door frame effect display device 152 or the effect display device 1600 does not accept the screen data from the display control MPU, the VDP outputs an in-execution signal to that effect to the display control MPU. The VDP employs a line buffer method. In this “line buffer method”, drawing data for one line for drawing the left and right directions of the door frame effect display device 152 and the effect display device 1600 is held in the line buffer, and drawing for one line held in the line buffer is performed. In this method, data is output to the door frame effect display device 152 and the effect display device 1600.

  The image ROM stores an extremely large amount of sprite data and has a large capacity. When the capacity of the image ROM increases, that is, when the number of sprites drawn on the door frame effect display device 152 and the effect display device 1600 increases, the access speed of the image ROM cannot be ignored, and the door frame effect display device 152 and the effect display. This will affect the drawing speed on the apparatus 1600. Therefore, in this embodiment, the sprite data stored in the image ROM is transferred and copied to the image RAM having a high access speed, and the sprite data is extracted from the image RAM. The sprite data is base data that is data before the sprite is expanded into the bitmap format, and is stored in the image ROM in a compressed state.

  Here, “sprite” will be described. “Sprite” is an image displayed as a unit on the door frame effect display device 152 and the effect display device 1600. For example, when various persons (characters) are displayed on the door frame effect display device 152 or the effect display device 1600, data for drawing each person is referred to as “sprite”. Accordingly, when a plurality of persons are displayed on the door frame effect display device 152 and the effect display device 1600, a plurality of sprites are used. In addition to a person, a house, a mountain, a road, and the like constituting the background are also sprites, and the entire background can be a single sprite. These sprites are set in a vertical relationship (hereinafter referred to as “sprite superposition order”) when the sprites are positioned on the screen or overlapped with each other, and the door frame effect display device 152 and the effect display device are set. Rendered at 1600.

  Note that the sprite is configured by bonding a plurality of rectangular regions of 64 pixels vertically and horizontally. Data for drawing this rectangular area is called a “sprite character”. In the case of a small sprite, it can be expressed by using one sprite character, and in the case of a relatively large sprite such as a person, for example, a total of 6 sprite characters arranged in horizontal 2 × vertical 3 etc. are used. Can be expressed. In the case of a larger sprite such as the background, it can be expressed using a larger number of sprite characters. Thus, the number and arrangement of sprite characters can be arbitrarily designated for each sprite.

  The door frame effect display device 152 and the effect display device 1600 sequentially cross from the main scanning for setting the display state for each pixel in one direction along the pixel from the left to the right when viewed from the front. It is driven by sub-scanning in which main scanning is repeatedly performed in the direction to be performed. When the drawing data for one line output from the effect display control unit 1512 is input to the door frame effect display device 152 and the effect display device 1600, the front of the door frame effect display device 152 and the effect display device 1600 as main scanning. Are sequentially output from left to right as viewed from the left side, and output to pixels for one line. When the output for one line is completed, the door frame effect display device 152 and the effect display device 1600 shift to the line immediately below as sub-scanning. Similarly, when drawing data for the next line is input, the next line is displayed. Based on the drawing data of the minute, it outputs to the pixels for one line sequentially from the left to the right as viewed from the front of the door frame effect display device 152 and the effect display device 1600 as main scanning.

[6-4. Mounting of SMD type electronic components]
Next, countermeasures for discontinued electronic components will be described. First, due to various circumstances of the pachinko machine 1, for a board to be treated as a main board such as a power supply board, a main control board, and a payout control board, a lead-type electronic component is mounted on the mounting surface, which is the front side, It is necessary to solder on the solder side that is the side. However, as mentioned above, lead-type electronic components are important for manufacturers of pachinko machines, slots, fusion gaming machines, and other gaming machines, but other general electric machine manufacturers can be downsized. A surface mount type (so-called SMD type) is used. For this reason, the production may be stopped due to a decrease in the number of lead-type electronic components produced. Therefore, a lead-type electronic component that can be configured as an SMD-type electronic component as a lead-type electronic component can be mounted on a mounting surface of a substrate that is handled as a main substrate.

  However, when configured as this lead-type electronic component, the outer shape (shape) of the lead-type electronic component is larger than the outer shape (shape) of the lead-type electronic component, and some or more of the protrusions have protrusions. It may be formed into a distorted outer shape (shape). When a lead-type electronic component having such an external shape (shape) is mounted on a mounting surface of a substrate that is treated as a main substrate, it may be difficult to place the components on the substrate due to the positional relationship with other electronic components. For this reason, it is difficult to configure an SMD type electronic component as the lead-type electronic component described above. Therefore, in addition to such lead-type electronic components, among the lead-type electronic components such as resistors, capacitors, diodes, coils, and LEDs, the SMD type electronic components are limited to substrates that can be handled as the main substrate. It may be permitted to be mounted on the mounting surface.

FIG. 67 is a schematic diagram (b) showing a front surface (mounting surface) and a back surface (solder surface) of a substrate that is miniaturized by collecting electronic components of a type, and FIG. 67 is a rear surface ( FIG. 68 is a perspective view of a main control board box of the main control unit. In FIG. 65 and FIG. 67, other various electronic components are omitted except for the electronic components necessary for explanation, for ease of viewing the drawings.

It is always determined that fraudulent acts such as those that convey fraudulent acts. Note that a plurality of types of electronic components such as resistors, capacitors, diodes, coils, and LEDs are mounted on the main control board 1310 as lead-type electronic components.

In addition, a lead type high frequency bypass capacitor MC30 (hereinafter simply referred to as “capacitor MC30”) capable of removing noise voltage generated by the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 itself is mounted in the vicinity of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30. It has become so. In FIG. 65A, the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 and the capacitor MC30 are omitted from the viewability of the drawing.

  In the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30, six Schmitt trigger inverter circuits are integrated and accommodated in one SMD package. In this embodiment, SOP (Small Outline Package) having 14 pins is adopted as the SMD package of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 (hereinafter, the SMD package of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 may be described as “SOP14”). In the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30, seven leads from two opposite sides of the SMD package body have a lead-to-lead distance dimension (so-called “lead pitch”, in this embodiment, 1.27 mm) and bend toward the outside. After being placed on a rectangular land pattern formed only on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310 corresponding to each lead, each lead and the surface of the main control board 1310 ( Mounting surface) A rectangular land pattern formed only on 1310x is soldered. The width dimension of each lead is 0.43 mm, and the width dimension of the rectangular land pattern is 0.76 mm larger than the width dimension of each lead (the length dimension of the rectangular land pattern is 1.27 mm). It is. In this embodiment, the SMD package body has a width dimension of 5.3 mm, a length dimension of 10.8 mm, and a height dimension of 1.5 mm. Including the length of the protruding lead, the width dimension of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is 7.8 mm.

  Although the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is soldered to the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310, in order to mount lead type electronic components on the main control board 1310, the back surface of the main control board 1310 is used as the solder surface. It is described as “the back surface (solder surface) of the main control board 1310” (hereinafter the same).

  Capacitor MC30 has two leads protruding from a main body having a rectangular parallelepiped shape, and has a lead-to-lead distance dimension (so-called “lead pitch”, in this embodiment, 5 mm) and protrudes in a straight line parallel to the outside. It is formed on both surfaces (front surface (mounting surface) and back surface (solder surface)) through the front surface (mounting surface) 1310x and the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310 corresponding to the two leads. Ring-shaped land pattern (also referred to as a through-hole, that is, a through-hole having a land pattern (hereinafter sometimes referred to simply as “land”); hereinafter the same), the surface of the main control board 1310 ( From the ring-shaped land pattern formed on the mounting surface) 1310x to the ring-shaped land pattern formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y. After two leads are inserted, the two leads protruding from the ring-shaped land pattern formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310 and the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310 Each of the ring-shaped land patterns formed by soldering is soldered. The diameter of the two leads is 0.5 mm, and the inner diameter of the ring-shaped land pattern is 0.7 mm larger than the diameter of the two leads (the outer diameter of the ring-shaped land pattern is 1. 5 mm). A land pattern through which a lead of a lead-type electronic component such as the capacitor MC3 is inserted may be referred to as a lead-type land pattern.

  Note that the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310 has a wiring pattern for transmitting a control signal, a wiring pattern for supplying power, and a region other than a region where various land patterns are formed as a ground (GND). Are formed as a so-called solid ground (substrate ground) (also referred to as “solid ground”), and the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310 also has a wiring pattern for transmitting control signals and a wiring pattern for supplying power. In addition, a region other than a region where various land patterns are formed is formed as a so-called solid ground (substrate ground) (also referred to as “solid ground”), which is a ground (GND). The solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310 and the solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310 are the main control board. Holes (copper) penetrating through a plurality of through holes (both surfaces (front surface (mounting surface) and back surface (solder surface)) of main control board 1310 formed on both surfaces (front surface (mounting surface) and back surface (solder surface)) of 1310 The same ground (GND) is obtained by being electrically connected through the plated holes)). The inner diameter of the through hole is 0.3 mm. The through hole has a solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310 and a solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310. ) Are electrically connected to form the same ground (GND), and various wiring patterns are used for routing on both surfaces (front surface (mounting surface) and back surface (solder surface)) of the main control board 1310. There are a plurality of land patterns. In the present embodiment, the outer diameter of the land pattern is 0.6 mm.

  On the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310, as shown in FIG. 65 (a), a region MSLKMIC30 indicating a position (including designation of orientation) where the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is disposed is white as silk printing. In addition to printing with a solid line (or black solid line), a part number corresponding to the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is printed in white (or black) as silk printing in the vicinity of the area MSLKMIC30 and in the lower left corner. Specifically, in the region MSLKMIC 30, the lead serving as the first terminal of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is placed on the lower left side and the seventh terminal (ground) so that the longitudinal direction of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is the left-right direction in FIG. (GND) terminal) is placed on the lower right side, the lead on the 8th terminal is placed on the upper right side, and the lead on the 14th terminal (power supply terminal) is placed on the upper left side. .

  The rectangular land patterns corresponding to the leads of the first to sixth terminals and the eighth to thirteenth terminals of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 are electrically connected to the respective wiring patterns for transmitting the corresponding control signals. The rectangular land pattern corresponding to the lead serving as the seventh terminal (ground (GND) terminal) of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is a solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310. The rectangular land pattern corresponding to the lead serving as the 14th terminal (power supply terminal) of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is electrically connected to the wiring pattern for supplying power.

  The package body surface of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is engraved with the manufacturer's name (including abbreviations and symbols. For example, “ABC”) and the product number (the number listed in the catalog, for example, “74XYXYZZ”). Or printed in a predetermined color (depending on the manufacturer). However, since the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is an SMD package called SOP14 and is small in size, the surface area of the package body of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is small.

  Although the details of the main control board 1310 will be described later, the main control board 1310 is an important control board that controls the progress of the game, and therefore prevents the main control board 1310 from those who obtain unauthorized game balls by making unauthorized modifications. The main control board box 1320 configured by a transparent cover body and a transparent base body in which a plurality of vent holes for heat dissipation are formed is housed and sealed. This heat radiating vent can release the air in the main control board box 1320 to the outside air.

  Then, when checking the product numbers (numbers listed in the catalog) of various electronic components of the main control board 1310, the main control board 1310 is stored in the main control board box 1320 in the state ( The manufacturer's name (including abbreviations and symbols) and product numbers (numbers listed in the catalog) stamped or printed on the package body surface of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 when the mounting surface) side is visually observed through the transparent cover body. Is small and difficult to see.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, an information area is provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310 in the vicinity of the area MSLKMIC 30 in FIG. MIC30 part number (number listed in the catalog) MSLKMIC30p is silk so that the size is easier to see than the part number (number listed in the catalog) stamped or printed on the package body surface of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 It is printed in white (or black) as printing. Therefore, the product number (number listed in the catalog) of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 can be surely visually confirmed.

  In addition, the manufacturer's name (including abbreviations and symbols) may be printed in white (or black) as silk printing together with the product number (number printed in the catalog). In this case, white (or black) is used for silk printing so that the size is easy to see compared to the size of the manufacturer name (including abbreviations and symbols) stamped or printed on the surface of the package body of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30. It is preferable that it is printed with. Thus, the name of the manufacturer (including abbreviations and symbols) of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 can be reliably recognized.

  Further, the capacitor MC30 is disposed on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310 in the vicinity of a rectangular land pattern corresponding to the lead serving as the 14th terminal (power supply terminal) of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30. The area MSLKMC30 indicating the position where the capacitor MC30 is disposed (the direction of the capacitor MC30 is not specified because there is no polarity) is printed as a white solid line (or black solid line) as silk printing, and in the vicinity of the area MSLKMC30. In the upper right part, the part number corresponding to the capacitor MC30 is printed in white (or black) as silk printing. Specifically, in the region MSLKMC30, one lead is electrically connected to the wiring pattern for supplying power so that the two leads of the capacitor MC30 are in the vertical direction in FIG. The ring-shaped land pattern and the other lead are instructed to be inserted into the lower ring-shaped land pattern paired with the upper ring-shaped land pattern, respectively.

  The wiring pattern to which the upper ring-shaped land pattern is electrically connected is also electrically connected to the rectangular land pattern corresponding to the lead serving as the 14th terminal (power supply terminal) of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30. Further, the lower ring-shaped land pattern is electrically connected to a solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310.

  Here, an advantage of mounting an SMD type electronic component on the surface (mounting surface) of a substrate treated as a main substrate will be briefly described. As described above, since the SMD type electronic component can be reduced in size as compared with the lead type electronic component, the electronic component mounting density when the SMD type electronic component is mounted on the surface (mounting surface) of the substrate. Can be extremely suppressed as compared with the electronic component mounting density when the lead type electronic component is mounted on the surface (mounting surface) of the substrate. For this reason, when mounting an alternative SMD type electronic component having the same function as the lead type electronic component on the surface (mounting surface) area of the substrate on which the lead type electronic component is mounted, Since the SMD type electronic component is small, the area around the surface (mounting surface) of the substrate on which the SMD type electronic component is mounted can be increased, and the lead type electronic component can be changed to the SMD type electronic component. It is also possible to increase the area between the replaced components (that is, it is possible to provide an electronic component mounting mode in which there are many gaps on the surface (mounting surface) of the substrate depending on the replaced components). Thereby, since the SMD type electronic component mounted on the surface (mounting surface) of the substrate can be viewed from multiple directions, unauthorized modification of the SMD type electronic component, the surface of the substrate (mounting surface) and the SMD type The state of mounting with electronic components (soldered state) and the state of various wiring patterns and various land patterns on SMD type electronic components can be confirmed. Therefore, the use of SMD type electronic components can contribute to the ease of finding unauthorized alterations.

  In addition, the area around the surface (mounting surface) of the substrate on which the SMD type electronic component is mounted can be increased, and the area between the lead type electronic component replaced with the SMD type electronic component is also increased. Therefore, for these regions (substrate surface (mounting surface)), the SMD type electronic component part number (number listed in the catalog) is imprinted on the surface of the package body of the SMD type electronic component. It can be printed in white (or black) as silk printing so that it is easy to see compared to the size of the printed product number (number printed in the catalog), and this product number (published in the catalog) The name of the manufacturer (including abbreviations and symbols) can be printed in white (or black) as silk printing. Therefore, it is possible to contribute to the easy recognition of the SMD type electronic component.

  When the surface (mounting surface) of the substrate is mounted on the SMD type electronic component, the distance between the back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component and the surface (mounting surface) of the substrate is extremely short (for example, a Schmitt trigger). In the inverter MIC30, the distance between the back surface of the main body and the front surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310 is 0.1 mm to 0.2 mm.) The back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component and the front surface of the substrate ( There is a problem in that it is difficult to find such an illegal circuit even if a wrong action of forming some illegal circuit between the mounting surface) and the like is performed.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, the following configuration is adopted as a method for preventing any unauthorized circuit from being formed between the back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component and the front surface (mounting surface) of the substrate.

  A configuration in which wiring patterns for transmitting control signals are not arranged at all in the region of the front surface (mounting surface) of the substrate corresponding to the back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component is adopted. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 65 (a), the area of the front surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310 corresponding to the back surface of the main body of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 (in other words, the lower portion of the main body of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30). The configuration in which each wiring pattern for transmitting the control signal is not arranged at all in the region passing through the circuit is adopted.

  A configuration in which a wiring pattern that is electrically connected to the ground (GND) and a wiring pattern that supplies power is not disposed at all in the region of the front surface (mounting surface) of the substrate corresponding to the back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component. . Specifically, as shown in FIG. 65 (a), the area of the front surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310 corresponding to the back surface of the main body of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 (in other words, the lower portion of the main body of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30). In this configuration, a wiring pattern that is electrically connected to the ground (GND) and a wiring pattern that supplies power are not disposed at all.

  A configuration was adopted in which no through hole was arranged in the region of the front surface (mounting surface) of the substrate corresponding to the back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 65A, through holes MTH are arranged on the upper right and upper left of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30, and the surface of the main control board 1310 corresponding to the back of the main body of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30. A configuration in which no through hole MTH (inner diameter of the through hole: 0.3 mm) is disposed at all in the region of (mounting surface) (in other words, the region passing through the lower part of the main body of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30) is adopted. As described above, this through hole MTH is electrically connected by both surfaces (holes (copper plated holes)) penetrating both surfaces (front surface (mounting surface) and back surface (solder surface)) of main control board 1310. Thus, the same ground (GND) can be obtained. In addition to the through-hole MTH, a plurality of through-holes MTH ′ (not shown) are provided in the main control board 1310 in order to route various wiring patterns to both surfaces (front surface (mounting surface) and back surface (solder surface)) of the main control board 1310. Although present, such a through-hole MTH ′ also passes through the lower surface of the main control board 1310 corresponding to the back surface of the main body of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 (in other words, the lower portion of the main body of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30). In which the through hole MTH ′ is not disposed at all. The through hole MTH ′ (not shown) has an inner diameter of the through hole: 0.3 mm and an outer diameter of the land pattern: 0.6 mm.

  Of each lead of the SMD type electronic component, a wiring pattern that is electrically connected to one lead is formed on the surface of the substrate (mounting surface) corresponding to the back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component. Adopted a configuration that does not pull out the electronic parts. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 65 (a), the area of the front surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310 corresponding to the back surface of the main body of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 with various wiring patterns to each lead of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30. (In other words, it is not arranged at all in the region that passes through the lower part of the main body of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30), and a configuration is adopted in which it is arranged from above or below the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30.

  Of each lead of the SMD type electronic component, in order to shorten the wiring pattern for electrically connecting one lead to the other lead, the surface of the substrate corresponding to the back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component (mounting surface) The configuration in which each wiring pattern for transmitting a control signal is not arranged at all in the area (1). Specifically, as shown in FIG. 65 (a), the area of the front surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310 corresponding to the back surface of the main body of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 with various wiring patterns to each lead of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30. (In other words, it is not arranged at all in the region that passes through the lower part of the main body of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30), and a configuration is adopted in which it is arranged from above or below the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30.

  Via each wiring pattern electrically connected to the land pattern by soldering each lead of the SMD type electronic component to a rectangular land pattern formed on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310 And a configuration in which the control signal cannot be taken out is adopted. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 65 (a), each lead of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is soldered to a rectangular land pattern formed on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310. A configuration is adopted in which the control signal cannot be taken out without passing through each wiring pattern electrically connected to. In other words, a configuration is adopted in which a control signal cannot be taken out from a part different from each lead of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30.

  By adopting such a configuration, it is possible to illegally form a new circuit such as a short circuit or a disconnect circuit between the back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component and the front surface (mounting surface) of the substrate. Can be difficult. Moreover, since various wiring patterns to the SMD type electronic component can be visually observed, the intention of the fraudster who intends to provide an unauthorized circuit to the SMD type electronic component is abandoned. Can do. Accordingly, fraudulent acts on the SMD type electronic component can be prevented.

  Also, by not arranging wiring patterns for transmitting control signals in the region of the front surface (mounting surface) of the substrate corresponding to the back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component, the back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component and the SMD Control signal to the SMD type electronic component so that other illegal IC (SMD type electronic component) is not mounted between the back side of the main body of the type electronic component and the surface (mounting surface) of the corresponding substrate And control signals to other illegal ICs cannot be used in combination in the region of the front surface (mounting surface) of the substrate corresponding to the back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component.

  Further, by not arranging each wiring pattern for transmitting a control signal in the region of the front surface (mounting surface) of the substrate corresponding to the back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component, other illegal ICs (SMD type electronic components) As for the type of the device, it is easy to arrange the control signal between the back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component and the front surface (mounting surface) of the substrate corresponding to the back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component. You can make it impossible to select things.

  Further, among the leads of the SMD type electronic component, a wiring pattern that is electrically connected to one lead is formed on the surface of the substrate (mounting surface) corresponding to the back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component. By not pulling out the SMD type electronic component to the outside, it is possible to prevent unauthorized use of the control signal for transmitting the wiring pattern drawn to the outside.

  In addition, each lead of the SMD type electronic component is soldered to a rectangular land pattern formed on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310, whereby each lead pattern is electrically connected to the land pattern. Without taking out the control signal, it is not possible to take out the control signal from a part different from each lead of the SMD type electronic component so that the control signal for transmitting the wiring pattern cannot be used illegally. can do.

  Further, among the leads of the SMD type electronic component, in order to shorten the wiring pattern for electrically connecting one lead to the other lead, the surface of the substrate corresponding to the back surface of the main body of the SMD type electronic component ( By not arranging each wiring pattern for transmitting a control signal in the area of the mounting surface), each wiring pattern electrically connected to each lead of the SMD type electronic component can be connected from above or below the SMD type electronic component. By disposing, an illegal circuit cannot be formed around the lead. Of the leads of the SMD type electronic component, a lead that is not used (also referred to as “empty terminal”) is electrically connected to a wiring pattern that is electrically connected to the ground (GND). Or, when it is electrically connected to a wiring pattern that supplies power, it should be arranged from above or below the SMD type electronic component so that an illegal circuit cannot be formed around the empty terminal.

[Contrast between the configuration of the product number visibility measure by the SMD package according to the first embodiment and the configuration of the product number visibility measure by the SMD package according to the third embodiment]
In the configuration of the part number visibility measure by the SMD package according to the first embodiment, this lead is applied to the area of the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310 on which the Schmitt trigger inverter which is a lead type electronic component is mounted.

  On the other hand, in the configuration of the part number visibility measure by the SMD package according to the third embodiment, as shown in FIG. 66B, the main control MPU 1310a which is a lead type electronic component, and various lead type connectors. The surface of the main control board 1310 ′ (mounting surface) is gathered by collecting alternative SMD type electronic components having the same function as electronic components such as various lead type ICs, resistors, capacitors, diodes, coils, and LEDs. ) 1310x ′. By integrating the SMD type electronic components and mounting them on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x 'of the main control board 1310', the size of the main control board 1310 'can be reduced. The external dimensions (vertical dimensions, horizontal dimensions, and thickness dimensions) of the main control board 1310 ′ are the horizontal dimensions of the external dimensions of the main control board 1310 in the configuration of the product number visibility measure by the SMD package according to the first embodiment. Only the dimension is half (the vertical dimension and the thickness dimension are the same).

  Various electronic components and various connectors are arranged on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x 'of the main control board 1310'. These various electronic components and various connectors are arranged in the component arrangement region 1310xa ′ formed on the main control board 1310 ′ in the configuration of the part number visibility measure by the SMD package according to the second embodiment described above.

This is because when wiring is connected to the connector, stress due to this wiring (this stress is caused by routing in the wiring path until the wiring is connected to the connector). This is because the reaction force of the wiring that accompanies the connector acts on the connector to prevent the wiring from peeling off from the substrate.

  On the back surface (solder surface) 1310y ′ of the main control board 1310 ′, there is a parts list which is an information area formed on the main control board 1310 ′ in the configuration of the part number visibility measure by the SMD package according to the second embodiment described above. The parts list of the electronic component constituted by arranging the part number printed in white (or black) as the silk print in the region 1310xb ′ and the part number (number listed in the catalog) is white as the silk print (or , Black). The size of the part number and the product number (the number listed in the catalog) is larger than the size of the part number printed in white (or black) as silk printing on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310 ′. Large (for example, about 3 to 5 times larger) is printed in white (or black) as silk printing. A separator “:” is provided between the part number and the part number (number listed in the catalog) so that the part number and the part number (number listed in the catalog) are not identified as consecutive. . With this delimiter, the part number and the product number (numbers listed in the catalog) can be distinguished and identified. In addition, the manufacturer's name (including abbreviations and symbols) may be printed in white (or black) as silk printing together with the product number (number listed in the catalog). Further, in addition to describing such component information, precautions regarding gaming machines may be described. For example, a description for the purpose of alerting such as “the main control board is a board important for security and should be handled with care” may be provided.

  Further, on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y ′ of the main control board 1310 ′, each lead of the above-described ZIP type main control MPU 1310a (described as a part number “MIC1” in the drawing) and lead type electronic components are used. Leads of certain capacitors MC0 to MC5 and MC30 and resistors MR0 to MR4 protrude from the back surface (solder surface) 1310y ′ of the main control board 1310 ′ and are soldered to the back surface (solder surface) 1310y ′ of the main control board 1310 ′. The part number and part number (numbers listed in the catalog) are the main control board 1310 ′ so as not to overlap (to avoid) this part. Is printed in white (or black) as silk printing in the component list area 1310xb ′ formed in the above.

  In this way, the surface (mounting surface) 1310x ′ of the main control board 1310 ′ is used as an area for component placement, and the back surface (solder surface) 1310y ′ of the main control board 1310 ′ is used as a part number and a product number (published in the catalog). Are used as a component list of electronic components configured in an aligned manner, so that the front surface (mounting surface) 1310x ′ of the main control board 1310 ′ and the back surface of the main control board 1310 ′ Since the role of (solder surface) 1310y ′ can be classified, various electronic components and various connectors mounted on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x ′ of the main control board 1310 ′ can be easily recognized.

  Further, since the SMD type electronic components are gathered and mounted on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x ′ of the main control board 1310 ′, the size of the main control board 1310 ′ can be reduced. The number of ring-shaped land patterns required when mounting electronic components can be determined and reduced. As a result, the back surface (solder surface) 1310y ′ of the main control board 1310 ′ has a reduced number of portions where various leads of lead-type electronic components protrude and are soldered, thereby reducing the back surface ( (Solder surface) 1310y 'can be formed as a flat surface.

  In addition, since various leads of the lead type electronic component protruding from the back surface (solder surface) 1310y ′ of the main control board 1310 ′ are soldered, they are reflected and feel dazzling when exposed to light from a fluorescent lamp or the like. As described above, various leads of lead-type electronic components protrude from the back surface (solder surface) 1310y ′ of the main control board 1310 ′, and soldering may occur. Since the back surface (solder surface) 1310y ′ of the main control board 1310 ′ can be formed as a flat surface by reducing the number of parts formed, even if light such as a fluorescent lamp hits the flat surface, A parts list of electronic parts composed of an arrangement of silk-printed part numbers and part numbers (numbers listed in the catalog) is visually recognized. It does not occur adverse effects of Kunar.

  In addition, instead of silk printing printed on the front surface (mounting surface) 1310x ′ and the back surface (solder surface) 1310y ′ of the main control board 1310 ′, the measure of the product number visibility by the SMD package according to the fifth embodiment to be described later is taken. The foil extraction region and the foil extraction character in the configuration may be adopted, or the resist extraction region and the double application of the double coating resist in the configuration of the product number visibility measure by the SMD package according to the sixth embodiment. You may employ | adopt the white resist extraction character using a resist.

  By the way, a general electric machine manufacturer uses a multilayer board on which various wiring patterns can be formed on each layer. However, main control boards and payout control boards used in gaming machines are two-layer boards ("double-sided boards") that form various wiring patterns on the front surface (mounting surface) and back surface (solder surface) of the substrate to enhance security. It is necessary to mount various electronic components only on the surface (mounting surface) of the substrate regardless of whether it is a lead type electronic component or an SMD type electronic component. For example, in order to increase security, it is necessary to mount the main control MPU 1310a of the ZIP type included in the lead type on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board, and it is advantageous to mount the lead type electronic component. For those with the SMD type, the lead type electronic component is mounted without using the SMD type electronic component.

  When SMD type electronic components and lead type electronic components are mounted together on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board or payout control board, the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board or payout control board As compared with the case where only the lead type electronic component is mounted on the main control board, the number of leads of the lead type electronic component protruding from the back surface (solder surface) of the main control board or the payout control board is reduced. As a result, the area used as a region for forming various wiring patterns on the back surface (solder surface) of the main control board or the payout control board can be increased, and an area used as a region used for other functions can also be acquired. Can do.

  Therefore, for example, the SMD type ICs and SMD type connectors are not mounted on the main control board produced as a mass-production machine in the above-described area of the back surface (solder surface) of the main control board that has increased. A land area for mounting land pattern 1310ya ′ (see FIG. 66B) in which various land patterns for mounting and pad patterns for extracting signals can be formed can be provided. In the main control board produced as a mass-produced machine, SMD type electronic components are not mounted on the various land patterns and pad patterns in the mounting land pattern formation area 1310ya ′. The pattern or pad pattern becomes an unmounted pattern, and the mounting land pattern formation area 1310ya ′ becomes an empty area.

  When such an unmounted pattern is formed on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board, various electronic components and various connectors on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board are formed depending on the region where the unmounted pattern is formed. However, when such an unmounted pattern is formed on the back surface (solder surface) of the main control board, the surface of the main control board ( The entire area of the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board can be used effectively without being restricted by the arrangement of various electronic components and various connectors on the mounting surface) and the routing of various wiring patterns.

  In addition, since such an unmounted pattern is formed on the back surface (solder surface) of the main control board, it is not visible from the front surface (mounting surface) of the main control board, and the presence of the unmounted pattern can be hidden. It is preferable in terms of security.

  A part of such an unmounted pattern may be formed on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board for convenience. For example, the connector (SMD type connector) may be more easily connected to the wiring if it is arranged on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board.

  Further, a part of such an unmounted pattern may be formed as a lead type electronic component or a lead type connector for convenience. For example, a case where soldering strength is required, such as a connector having a large number of insertions and removals, can be mentioned.

  Next, when the main control board 1310 is viewed in a state of being accommodated in the main control board box 1320, the small Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30, which is an SMD package, has a small package body surface area, so that the manufacturer name (abbreviation and symbol) And other parts of the present invention (hereinafter referred to as “fourth to sixth embodiments”) in which the measure of the part number is taken by the SMD package that the part number (the number listed in the catalog) is small and difficult to see.

The inner region of the MSLKMIC 30 ′ can be electrically connected. This is because the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is mounted on the front surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310, and therefore the ground (GND) on the back surface (solder surface) of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 corresponding to the mounted region. This is because the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 can be prevented from malfunctioning due to noise (enhanced against noise) by securing the above area as much as possible.

  The foil-cut character is formed as a cut character formed by forming a character with a wiring pattern that is a copper foil in a layer (copper plane) on which the wiring pattern is formed and removing the surrounding copper foil. The part number formed as the foil drawing character is formed as the foil drawing character larger than the size printed on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310. This is because a plurality of various electronic components are mounted on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310, so it is necessary to reduce the size of the component number and place it in the vicinity of the corresponding electronic component for printing. On the other hand, since no electronic component is mounted on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310, the size of the component number can be increased to form a foil-cut character.

  In addition, in the configuration of the part number visibility measure by the SMD package according to the fifth embodiment, printing is performed on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310 in the configuration of the part number visibility measure by the SMD package according to the first embodiment. In place of the product number MSLKMIC 30p, the product number MSLKMIC 30p is provided on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310 with an information area near the area MSLKMIC 30 '. It is formed as a foil-extracted character so as to have a size that is easier to visually recognize than the size of a product number (number printed in a catalog) stamped or printed on the surface of the package body. The foil-cut character is formed as a cut character formed by forming a character with a wiring pattern that is a copper foil in a layer (copper plane) on which the wiring pattern is formed and removing the surrounding copper foil. Therefore, the product number (number listed in the catalog) of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 can be surely visually confirmed.

  The product number MSLKMIC 30p formed as a foil-drawn character is the same as the product number MSLKMIC 30p printed on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310 in the configuration of the product number visibility measure by the SMD package according to the first embodiment. It may be large or large. This is because a plurality of various electronic components are mounted on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310, and therefore the size of the product number MSLKMIC 30p is set in the configuration of the product number visibility measure by the SMD package according to the first embodiment. While it is necessary to arrange and print in the vicinity of the corresponding electronic component in a smaller size, since the electronic component is not mounted on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310, the size of the product number MSLKMIC 30p is increased. This is because it can be formed as a foil drawing character.

  In addition, the manufacturer name (including abbreviations and symbols) may be formed as foil-drawing characters together with the product number (number printed in the catalog). In this case, the characters are formed as foil-drawing characters so that the size is easy to see compared to the size of the manufacturer name (including abbreviations and symbols) stamped or printed on the surface of the package body of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30. Is preferred. Thus, the name of the manufacturer (including abbreviations and symbols) of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 can be reliably recognized.

  Further, in the configuration of the part number visibility measure by the SMD package according to the fifth embodiment, the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310 is further printed on the front surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310. A region MSLKMC30 ′ indicating a position where the capacitor MC30 is disposed (a direction is not specified because the capacitor MC30 has no polarity) is formed by a chain line as a foil drawing region at a position corresponding to the region MSLKMC30. A part number corresponding to the capacitor MC30 is formed as a foil drawing character in the vicinity of 'and in the upper left. The foil-extracted region is a chain line that is a copper foil wiring pattern except for a wiring pattern for transmitting a control signal, a wiring pattern for supplying power, and various land patterns in a layer (copper plane) where various wiring patterns are formed. This is a region formed by removing the surrounding copper foil. The foil-cut character is formed as a cut character formed by forming a character with a wiring pattern that is a copper foil in a layer (copper plane) on which the wiring pattern is formed and removing the surrounding copper foil. The part number formed as the foil drawing character is formed as the foil drawing character larger than the size printed on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310. This is because a plurality of various electronic components are mounted on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310, so it is necessary to reduce the size of the component number and place it in the vicinity of the corresponding electronic component for printing. On the other hand, since no electronic component is mounted on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310, the size of the component number can be increased to form a foil-cut character.

  In addition, the wiring pattern for forming the foil drawing region and the foil drawing character is formed so as to be electrically insulated from various electronic components, as well as a wiring pattern for transmitting a control signal, a wiring pattern for supplying power, and various types. The land pattern and the solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310 are electrically insulated from each other.

  When the part number corresponding to the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is formed as a white resist-extracted character, it is formed to be larger than the size printed on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310. This is because a plurality of various electronic components are mounted on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310, so it is necessary to reduce the size of the component number and place it in the vicinity of the corresponding electronic component for printing. On the other hand, since no electronic component is mounted on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310, the size of the component number can be increased to form a white resist-free character.

[6-4b. Measures to prevent modification of SMD type electronic components]
Next, a miniaturized electronic component called an SMD type electronic component is mounted on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310, so that it can be exchanged for an illegal electronic component to obtain an illegal game ball. The point which prevents an action is demonstrated.

  As described above, the Schmidt trigger inverter MIC30, which is an SMD type electronic component mounted on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310, has a width dimension of 5.3 mm and a length dimension as the size of the SMD package body. 10.8 mm and the height dimension is 1.5 mm, and the width dimension of the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is 7.8 mm including the length of the lead protruding from the two sides of the SMD package body.

  Since the main control board 1310 is an important control board for controlling the progress of the game, it is necessary to prevent the main control board 1310 from a person who obtains an illegal game ball by making an unauthorized modification. It is housed and sealed in a main control board box 1320 composed of a transparent cover body in which a plurality of pores are formed and a transparent base body. As shown in FIG. 68, the main control board box 1320 has a cover body 1301 and a base body 1302 that are crimped by a one-way screw or the like of a crimping portion 1303. The crimping portion 1303 is a sealing mechanism, and a plurality of crimping portions 1303 are provided. The main control board box 1320 can be closed by caulking the cover body 1301 and the base body 1302 with a one-way screw or the like of the caulking portion 1303 using one sealing mechanism, and then to open the main control board box 1320 It is necessary to destroy the sealing mechanism. That is, the cover body 1301 cannot be removed from the base body 1302 unless the sealing mechanism is destroyed.

  However, the SMD type Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is peeled off from the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310 by some illegal means such as a thin wire on the main control board box 1320, and the SMD type Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is illegal. If the electronic component is exchanged, an unauthorized game ball may be obtained by a person who performs such unauthorized modification.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 68, a plurality of ventilation holes 1301z having an inner diameter (2 mm in this embodiment) smaller than the size of the SMD type Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 are formed in the transparent cover body 1301. The configuration to adopt was adopted. Thus, even if the SMD type Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is peeled off from the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310 by some unauthorized means such as a thin wire on the main control board box 1320, the SMD type Schmitt The trigger inverter MIC30 cannot be taken out from the main control board box 1320 through the vent hole 1301z. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the SMD type Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 from being replaced with an unauthorized electronic component.

  Further, as described above, the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is one of the main circuits constituting the main control input circuit to which detection signals from various sensors are input, and is omitted from the main control board 1310 by some unauthorized means. Then, the main control MPU 1310a always determines that there is no entry among the various sensors that convey the entry of the game ball, and the improper is always the one that conveys an illegal act such as the approach of a magnet or unauthorized vibration. It is determined that cheating is taking place. As a result, when the SMD type Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is peeled off from the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310, if the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is missing, a state where there is no entry to the person who performs unauthorized modification. The state is maintained and no illegal game ball is acquired, and the illegal alteration is performed by notifying the illegal act, and the game computer (hall) is informed and notified of the game. You can also tell the staff in the hall. Further, when the main control MPU 1310a determines that fraudulent acts are always carried out for various types of sensors that convey fraudulent acts such as the approach of a magnet or unauthorized vibration, as described above, Is set to the firing stop logic (launch non-permission logic) to control the game ball so that it cannot be launched toward the game area 5a. It is in a state where it cannot be performed at all.

  In the above-described embodiment, the SMD type Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 is mounted on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310 as an SMD type electronic component. However, as other SMD type electronic components, For example, when the resistor is mounted on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310, the SMD type resistor is peeled off from the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310, and the main control board box 1320 is formed through the vent 1301z. It is necessary to make the inner diameter of the vent 1301z smaller than the resistance of the SMD type so that it does not jump out from the inside of the SMD type.

  Since such an SMD type resistor is small, even if it is peeled off from the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310, it is visually confirmed whether or not it is mounted on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310. It may be difficult to distinguish. Further, when the SMD type resistance peeled off from the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310 jumps out from the inside of the main control board box 1320 through the vent hole 1301z, the resistance is lowered to the inside lower side of the main control board box 1320. Since there is no trace of the peeled off SMD type resistor, it becomes more difficult to visually determine whether or not it is mounted on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310.

  Therefore, for example, when the JIS standard 1/8 watt 2012 type is adopted as the SMD type resistor, the length type is 2.0 mm and the width dimension is 1.2 mm in this 2012 type. In such a small SMD type resistor, even if a problem occurs in which the main control board 1310 is peeled off from the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310, the main control board box 1320 can be used. In order not to jump out, the inner diameter of the vent 1301z is smaller than the smaller one of the length dimension and width dimension of the small SMD type resistor (here, the width dimension is 1.2 mm). It shall be a thing (here, for example, 1.0 mm).

  Thereby, even if a small SMD type resistor is peeled off from the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310, it is reliably prevented from jumping out from the inside of the main control board box 1320 through the vent hole 1301z. Therefore, an opportunity to visually recognize the small SMD type resistor that has been peeled off inside the main control board box 1320 can be obtained, and if the main control board box 1320 is shaken up and down or left and right, A small SMD type resistor that peels off collides with the inner wall of the main control board box 1320 or the main control board 1310, and a sound is generated. This sound provides an opportunity to recognize the small SMD type resistor that has peeled off. Obtainable. In addition to this small SMD type resistor, instead of electronic components such as lead type capacitors, diodes, coils, and LEDs, electronic components such as SMD type capacitors, diodes, coils, and LEDs are employed. The inner diameter of the vent hole 1301z is smaller than the smallest dimension among them.

  Thus, even if a small SMD type electronic component is peeled off from the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310, it is sure to jump out from the inside of the main control board box 1320 through the vent 1301z. Can be prevented. Therefore, it is possible to increase the probability that a defect that the SMD type electronic component is peeled off from the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310 due to the deflection of the main control board 1310 can be found.

  In the above-described embodiments (including the configuration of the product number visibility measures by the SMD packages according to the first to sixth embodiments), the SMD type electronic component is mounted on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310. As described above, SMD type electronic components can also be mounted on the surface (mounting surface) of the substrates treated as main substrates such as the power supply substrate 630 and the payout control substrate 633.

[6-4c. Test connector]
The pachinko machine 1 is tested at a specific testing institution and cannot be shipped to the game hall unless it is approved by this specific testing institution. The main control board 1310 is provided with a test connector 1310k for extracting various signals relating to the game. This test connector 1310k is an SMD type electronic component. The test connector 1310k is a straight SMD type connector (a type in which each pin of the connector is arranged in parallel to the front surface (mounting surface) and the back surface (solder surface) of the main control board in the vertical direction). When the pachinko machine 1 is produced as a testing machine to be tested at a specific testing institution, it is usually mounted on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310 and is attached to the transparent cover body 1301 facing the test connector 1310k. While the test harness cover body side opening 1301k for attaching the test harness to the test connector 1310k is formed, the main control board 1310 is produced when the pachinko machine 1 is produced as a mass production machine shipped to the game hall. The test harness cover body side opening 1301k is formed in the transparent cover body 1301. It is made as to not. For this reason, in the main control board 1310 produced as a mass-production machine, an area for mounting the test connector 1310k is formed as an empty area on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the pachinko machine 1 is produced as a test machine to be tested in a specific test organization, the test connector 1310k is mounted on the back surface (solder surface) of the main control board 1310, such as a land pattern formation area 1310ya. '(See FIG. 66 (b)) and a test harness base body side opening 1302k for mounting the test harness to the test connector 1310k on the transparent base body 1302 facing the test connector 1310k. The structure to form was adopted. Thereby, even when the pachinko machine 1 is produced as a test machine to be tested in a specific testing institution, and even when the pachinko machine 1 is produced as a mass production machine shipped to a game hall, the surface of the main control board 1310 Since the area for mounting the test connector 1310k is not formed as an empty area on the (mounting surface), other SMD type electronic components can be mounted on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310. . Therefore, the degree of freedom of arrangement of various electronic components on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310 can be increased.

  Further, with this configuration, in preparation for starting the test of the pachinko machine 1 at a specific test organization, the test operator first removes the main control board box 1320 from the board holder 1200 of the game board 5. Subsequently, the test harness electrically connected to the test apparatus installed in a specific test organization is connected to the main control board via the test harness base body side opening 1302k formed in the transparent base body 1302. Electrical connection is made with a test connector 1310k mounted on the mounting land pattern formation region 1310ya ′ on the back surface (solder surface) of 1310. Subsequently, the test operator attaches the main control board box 1320 to the board holder 1200. In this state, the test harness can be held and held (held) by the transparent base body 1302 of the main control board box 1320 and the board holder 1200, so that the test harness is directed to the test connector 1310k. By applying a load in the direction in which the test harness is pushed in, the electrical connection between the test connector 1310k and the test harness becomes unstable due to vibrations caused by a movable body operated by various electric drive sources provided in the pachinko machine 1. In addition to preventing this, it is possible to prevent the test harness from which various important signals relating to the game are extracted in the test of the pachinko machine 1 from being twisted and disconnected.

  In this embodiment, as the test connector 1310k, a straight SMD type connector (each pin of the connector is arranged in parallel to the front surface (mounting surface) and the back surface (solder surface) of the main control board. The right angle SMD type connector (type in which each pin of the connector is arranged in parallel with the front surface (mounting surface) and the back surface (solder surface) of the main control board) is used. The back surface (solder surface) of the control board is mounted in the vicinity of any of the left side, the lower side, the right side, and the upper side, and the side wall (transparent cover body 1301) of the transparent cover body 1301 facing the test connector 1310k. Of the left side wall, the lower side wall, the right side wall, and the upper side wall of the tester to the test connector 1310k) to the test connector 1310k An arrangement for forming a test harness cover side opening 1301k may be employed for applying Ri. Even if configured in this way, even when the pachinko machine 1 is produced as a test machine to be tested at a specific testing institution, and even when the pachinko machine 1 is produced as a mass production machine shipped to a game hall, Since the area for mounting the test connector 1310k is not formed as an empty area on the surface (mounting surface) of the control board 1310, another SMD type electronic component is placed on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310. Can be implemented. Therefore, the degree of freedom of arrangement of various electronic components on the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310 can be increased. In preparation for starting the test of the pachinko machine 1 in a specific testing organization, the test operator first performs a specific test without removing the main control board box 1320 from the board holder 1200 of the game board 5 shown in FIG. A test harness electrically connected to a test apparatus installed in the engine is connected to the back surface (solder surface) of the main control board through a test harness cover body side opening 1301k formed in the transparent cover body 1301. It can be electrically connected to the test connector 1310k to be mounted.

  Incidentally, a gaming machine in which a test firing test terminal (test connector) to which a cable for transmitting game information to a test device in a specific test organization is connected is provided in the game control device (game control board) has been proposed. (For example, JP2013-128621A (paragraph [0054] and FIG. 6)). By the way, in the gaming machine described in this document, a test connector is mounted on the surface of the game control board when tested at a specific testing institution, whereas when used in a game hall. Since the test connector is not mounted on the surface of the game control board and becomes an empty area, there is a problem that the degree of freedom in arranging various electronic components on the surface of the game control board cannot be increased by this empty area.

  Conventionally, a gaming machine for mounting a surface-mount type electronic component on a board has been proposed (for example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2014-144218 (paragraph [0042] and FIG. 4)). By the way, although the surface mount type electronic component in the gaming machine described in this document may have an identifier such as a part number corresponding to the surface mount type electronic component, the size of the surface mount type electronic component is large. There was a problem that the identifier was small and it was difficult to visually recognize the identifier.

  Conventionally, a gaming machine for mounting a surface-mount type electronic component on a board has been proposed (for example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2014-144218 (paragraph [0042] and FIG. 4)). By the way, when the surface-mount type electronic component in the gaming machine described in this document is mounted on a game control board capable of controlling the progress of the game, the surface-mount type electronic component is There is a fear that an illegal game ball may be obtained by peeling it from the game control board and replacing it with an illegal electronic component.

  Conventionally, a gaming machine has been proposed in which a tact switch or the like is provided on a board that can be operated by operating a pressing operation unit to feel that the switch is turned on or off by a click feeling during operation (for example, a special feature). No. 2017-023427 (paragraph [0071] and FIG. 21)). By the way, an electronic component such as a tact switch described in this document is a lead type in which each REIT is inserted into a through hole provided in the substrate from the surface of the substrate toward the back surface and soldered on the back surface side of the substrate. It is an electronic component. When such a lead-type electronic component is mounted on a board such as a game control board that controls the progress of the game, for example, if the board bends as the lead-type electronic component is operated, this deflection causes the board to There is a risk that an electrical failure may occur due to peeling of a soldered portion of another electronic component mounted on the board.

  Conventionally, there has been proposed a gaming machine in which various control boards are arranged at predetermined positions on the back of the gaming board (for example, JP 2013-128621 A (paragraph [0032] to paragraph [0034] and FIG. 3)). By the way, the game control board that controls the progress of the game is an important board for determining whether or not to give a profit to the player, so it is accommodated in a board case having a sealed structure and is used for illegal acts such as unauthorized modification. Preventive measures are required.

  Conventionally, a gaming machine for mounting a surface-mounted component on a board has been proposed (for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2014-144218 (paragraph [0042] and FIG. 4)). By the way, when the surface-mounted component in the gaming machine described in this document is mounted on a game control board that can control the progress of the game, it is within the area of the surface of the game control board on which the surface-mounted component is mounted. If the wiring pattern is routed to the surface, the distance between the back surface of the surface mount component and the surface of the game control board is small. A problem arises in that fraudulent acts cannot be prevented.

  Conventionally, a gaming machine has been proposed in which a main control board for controlling a game is placed on the back side in a state of being accommodated in a case (for example, JP-A-2006-214975 (paragraph [0030], paragraph [0031] and Fig. 2) By the way, as in the gaming machine described in this document, the main control board is important for controlling the game, so it is housed in a case and sealed as a security measure. It is placed on the back side, and it is required to improve crime prevention for those important in crime prevention.

[Inspection machine for main control board surface mounting]
Next, a description will be given with reference to FIG. 69 of a response in the inspection machine when an SMD type electronic component mounted on the main control board 1310 is mounted. FIG. 69 is a diagram (a) showing the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board, and shows the case where the back surface (solder surface) of the main control board is viewed through the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board. It is the schematic (c) of the cross section of the WW line in (a). In FIG. 69, various wiring patterns and substrate ground (GND) (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “solid ground”) used for explanation are omitted for the sake of clarity of the drawing, and electronic components such as a capacitor are used. Also, various areas with foil stripped are omitted for ease of drawing.

  When performing an electrical inspection (function tester (so-called “FCT”) or in-circuit test (so-called “ICT”)) of the main control board 1310 on which only lead-type electronic components are mounted, the main control board 1310 The tip of the jig contact probe in the inspection machine (hereinafter simply referred to as “contact probe”) is brought into contact with the lead of each electronic component mounted on the board. In this electrical inspection, a contact probe contact minimum diameter (in this embodiment, 1.5 mm) or more is recommended as the outer diameter of the land pattern in contact with the contact probe, and between the land patterns (that is, one land pattern). As a minimum distance between the center point of the contact pattern and the center point of another land pattern), a contact probe contact prevention distance (in this embodiment, 2.5 mm) or more is recommended.

  Note that a case where a through hole having a normal land pattern capable of routing a wiring pattern on both surfaces (front surface (mounting surface) and back surface (solder surface)) of the main control board 1310 (hereinafter referred to as “normal through hole”) is described. Is, as described above, the outer diameter of a normal land pattern is 0.6 mm, which is less than the minimum contact probe contact diameter (1.5 mm in this embodiment). For this reason, although a normal land pattern may be able to come into contact with the contact probe, it cannot be used in electrical inspection in view of electrical connectivity.

  However, when the SMD type electronic component is mounted on the main control board 1310 in addition to the lead type electronic component, the surface area of the pad to which the lead of the SMD type electronic component is soldered is extremely small, and the SMD type Since the distance between leads (lead pitch) of a type electronic component is extremely narrow, if the contact probe is brought into contact with the lead of an SMD type electronic component, it will come into contact with another lead adjacent to this lead, and the main control board There is a problem that the contact probe used when only a lead-type electronic component is mounted on 1310 cannot be used.

  When the SMD type electronic component is mounted on the peripheral control board 1510, the test pad electrically connected to the lead of the SMD type electronic component is connected to the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 or the peripheral control board 1510. By providing it on the back surface (solder surface), the contact probe can be brought into contact with the test pad even if the distance between leads (lead pitch) of the SMD type electronic component is extremely narrow.

  However, unlike the peripheral control board 1510, the main control board 1310 is different from the peripheral control board 1510 in terms of rules and agreements (rules relating to the recognition of the gaming machine and the type test), and the test pad is the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310. In addition, provision on the back surface (solder surface) of the main control board 1310 is prohibited.

  Here, for example, as shown in FIG. 69A, logic ICSMD1 (hereinafter referred to as “SMD type electronic component SMD1”) which is an SMD type electronic component and logic which is an SMD type electronic component. ICSMD2 (hereinafter referred to as “SMD type electronic component SMD2”) is mounted on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310, and a logic circuit is formed by the two SMD type electronic components SMD1 and SMD2. The case where it is formed will be described.

  The two SMD type electronic components SMD1 and SMD2 are the same SMD package (SOP14) as the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 described above, and the lead serving as the first terminal is the lower left side and the seventh terminal (ground (GND) terminal). The lead which becomes the right lower side, the lead which becomes the 8th terminal is arranged on the upper right side, the lead which becomes the 14th terminal (power supply terminal) is arranged on the upper left side, and 7 leads from the two opposite sides of the SMD package main body The lead has a distance between leads (so-called “lead pitch”, 1.27 mm in the present embodiment), is formed to bend and protrude outward, and the surface of the main control board 1310 corresponding to each lead ( After mounting on the rectangular land pattern formed only on the mounting surface 1310x, each lead and the surface of the main control board 1310 (mounting) ) A rectangular land pattern formed only on the 1310x are soldered respectively. The width dimension of each lead is 0.43 mm, and the width dimension of the rectangular land pattern is 0.76 mm larger than the width dimension of each lead (the length dimension of the rectangular land pattern is 1.27 mm). It is. In this embodiment, the SMD package body has a width dimension of 5.3 mm, a length dimension of 10.8 mm, and a height dimension of 1.5 mm, and protrudes from two sides of the SMD package body. Including the length of the leads, the width dimension of the two SMD type electronic components SMD1, SMD2 is 7.8 mm.

  When the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the SMD type electronic component SMD2 are mounted on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310, a logic circuit is formed by the two SMD type electronic components SMD1 and SMD2. A wiring pattern for electrically connecting the lead of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the lead of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 is formed on the copper foil surface on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x side of the main control board 1310. It becomes. In this case, since the distance between leads (lead pitch) of the SMD type electronic component is extremely narrow as described above, the contact probe is brought into contact with the leads of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the SMD type electronic component SMD2. This leads to contact with other leads adjacent to this lead, and the contact probe used when the lead type electronic component is mounted alone cannot be used.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 69A and 69B, the wiring pattern in which the lead of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the lead of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 are electrically connected is used. The copper foil surface on the front surface (mounting surface) 1310x side of the main control board 1310 and the back surface (solder surface) 1310y side of the main control board 1310 through the through holes having a pair of inspection machine land patterns partially. Each is formed on the copper foil surface.

  Specifically, the wiring pattern TR1 that electrically connects the lead that is the first terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the lead that is the 13th terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 is the main wiring pattern. Rather than forming a straight or broken line route on the copper foil surface on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x side of the control board 1310, a lead serving as the first terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1, and an SMD type Although the lead serving as the 13th terminal of the electronic component SMD2 is disposed in the vicinity, the wiring pattern TR electrically connected to the lead serving as the 12th terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 becomes an obstacle. Therefore, as a normal wiring pattern routing, it is a rectangular shape soldered to the lead that becomes the first terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 A wiring pattern TR1a, one end of which is electrically connected to the land pattern and the other end of which is electrically connected to a through hole TR1at having a land pattern for an inspection machine, and a lead serving as the 13th terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 A wiring pattern in which one end is electrically connected to a rectangular land pattern soldered to a through hole and the other end is electrically connected to a through hole MTH ′ having a normal land pattern (ordinary through hole MTH ′). TR1b is formed on the copper foil surface on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x side of the main control board 1310, and one end is electrically connected to the through-hole TR1at having the land pattern for the inspection machine and the other end Through-hole MTH ′ having a normal land pattern (normal through-hole MTH ′) and electricity Wiring connected patterns TR1c is formed on the copper foil surface of the back (solder side) 1310Y side of the main control board 1310. In this way, with respect to the through hole TR1at having a land pattern for an inspection machine between the lead that becomes the first terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the lead that becomes the 13th terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2. Thus, the electrical inspection can be performed by using the contact probe described above as it is.

  In addition, the wiring pattern TR2 that electrically connects the lead serving as the fourth terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the lead serving as the eleventh terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 is connected to the main control board 1310. Rather than forming a straight or broken line route on the copper foil surface on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x side, a lead serving as the fourth terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1, and an SMD type electronic component SMD2 No. 11 terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 is intentionally placed despite the fact that there is no obstacle such as other electronic components or other wiring patterns. One end of the rectangular land pattern that is soldered to the terminal lead is electrically connected, and the other end has a land pattern for the inspection machine. One end of the wiring pattern TR2a electrically connected to the through hole TR2at and the rectangular land pattern soldered to the lead serving as the 11th terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 are connected to the other. A wiring pattern TR2b that is electrically connected to a through hole TR2bt having a land pattern for an inspection machine is formed on the copper foil surface on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x side of the main control board 1310. Is electrically connected to the through hole TR2at having the inspection machine land pattern and the other end of the wiring pattern TR2c is electrically connected to the through hole TR2bt having the inspection machine land pattern. Solder surface) formed on the copper foil surface on the 1310y side. In this way, a through hole TR2at having a pair of inspection machine land patterns between the terminals that are the fourth terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the leads that are the eleventh terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2. , TR2bt, the electrical inspection can be performed by using the contact probe described above as it is for one of them.

  In addition, the wiring pattern TR3 that electrically connects the lead that is the 10th terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the lead that is the 9th terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 is the wiring pattern TR3 of the SMD type electronic component SMD1. Since the lead serving as the 10th terminal and the lead serving as the 9th terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 are not arranged in the vicinity, the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310 and the main A rectangular land pattern and one end soldered to a lead serving as the eighth terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 are electrically connected across the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the control board 1310. It is electrically connected and the other end is electrically connected to a through hole TR3at having a land pattern for an inspection machine. A through-hole having a land pattern TR3a and a rectangular land pattern soldered to a lead serving as the ninth terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 and one end electrically connected and the other end having an inspection machine land pattern A through pattern TR3at having a wiring pattern TR3b electrically connected to TR3bt is formed on the copper foil surface on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x side of the main control board 1310, and one end of which has a land pattern for an inspection machine. Is formed on the copper foil surface on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y side of the main control board 1310. The wiring pattern TR3c is electrically connected to the through hole TR3bt having the other end of the land pattern for the inspection machine. Has been. In this way, a through hole TR3at having a pair of inspection machine land patterns between the lead of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the lead as the 10th terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 , TR3bt, the electrical inspection can be performed by using the above-described contact probe as it is.

  In addition, a lead through which the lead of the lead type electronic component is inserted is connected to the wiring pattern TR4 that electrically connects the lead serving as the 13th terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the lead of the lead type electronic component (not shown). Since the contact probe described above can be used as it is for a through hole having a land pattern for type, a rectangular land pattern and one end of which a lead serving as the 13th terminal of an SMD type electronic component is soldered A wiring pattern TR4a is formed on the copper foil surface on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x side of the main control board 1310, which is electrically connected and the other end is electrically connected to the through hole TR4at having the land pattern for the inspection machine. And a through hole TR4 with one end having a land pattern for an inspection machine The main control board 1310 is a wiring pattern TR4b that is electrically connected to t and the other end of which is electrically connected to a through hole having a lead type land pattern through which a lead of a lead type electronic component (not shown) is inserted. Is formed on the copper foil surface on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y side. Thus, between the terminals of the lead of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the lead of the lead type electronic component (not shown), the lead type electronic component lead is inserted. The above-described contact probe can be used as it is for the through hole having the land pattern, and the contact probe described above for the through hole TR4at having the land pattern for the inspection machine between the terminals. It is also possible to carry out an electrical inspection by using as it is.

  Through holes TR1at, TR2at, TR2bt, TR3at, TR3bt, and TR4at having land patterns for inspection machines have a solid ground (substrate ground) and an inner diameter of the through holes formed on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310. Same as the inner diameter (0.3 mm) of a plurality of through holes MTH that are electrically connected to a solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the control substrate 1310 to form the same ground (GND). However, the outer diameter of the land pattern for the inspection machine is extremely larger than the outer diameter of the normal land pattern (0.6 mm in the present embodiment) used for the above-described wiring routing. And a lead tie through which the lead of the capacitor MC30, which is the lead type electronic component described above, is inserted (In the present embodiment, 1.5 mm) outside diameter (1.5 mm) and an identical contact probe contacts the minimum diameter of the land pattern of use has become. Thereby, when the surface area of the land pattern for the inspection machine is compared with the surface area of the land pattern through which the lead of the lead type electronic component is inserted, the inner diameter of the land pattern through which the lead of the capacitor MC30, which is the lead type electronic component, is inserted. However, since it is 0.7 mm as described above, the surface area of the land pattern for the inspection machine is larger than the surface area of the land pattern through which the lead of the lead type electronic component is inserted.

  In the present embodiment, the outer diameter of the land pattern through which the lead of the lead type electronic component is inserted and the outer diameter of the land pattern for the inspection machine are the same size. Even when the SMD type electronic component is mounted in addition to the electronic component, the contact probe used when only the lead type electronic component is mounted on the main control board 1310 can be used as it is. it can.

  Further, the through holes TR1at, TR2at, TR3at, and TR4at having the land pattern for the inspection machine are located at positions where the contact probes are not in electrical contact with the respective leads of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 when the contact probes are in contact with each other. A through hole MTH ′ (ordinary through hole MTH ′) having a normal land pattern and at least a contact probe contact prevention distance (2.5 mm in this embodiment) separated from the outer end portion of each lead is disposed. ) And a through hole TR2bt having a land pattern for an inspection machine, and through holes TR2bt and TR3bt having a land pattern for an inspection machine are in the state where the contact probes are in contact with each other. At least the contact probe contact prevention distance (2.5 mm in this embodiment) is arranged away from the outer end of each lead of the product SMD2.

  Further, among the through holes TR1at, TR2at, TR3at, and TR4at having the land pattern for the inspection machine, the through holes TR1at and TR2at are arranged on the same straight line that is lowered to the right (that is, the through hole TR1at). , TR2at are spaced apart by at least a contact probe contact prevention distance (2.5 mm in this embodiment) in the left-right direction and at least a contact probe contact prevention distance (in this embodiment, 2. 5 mm) Since the contact probes that are in contact with the through hole TR1 at and the contact probes that are in contact with the through hole TR2 at are in electrical contact with each other. So that you can prevent The through holes TR3at and TR4at are spaced apart from each other on the same straight line that rises to the right (that is, the through holes TR3at and TR4at are at least contact probe contact prevention distances in the horizontal direction (in this embodiment, , 2.5 mm) or more apart from each other and at least the contact probe contact prevention distance (2.5 mm in this embodiment) apart from each other in the vertical direction. Therefore, the contact probe that contacts the through hole TR3at and the contact probe that contacts the through hole TR4at can be prevented from being in electrical contact with each other.

  Further, the through-hole MTH ′ having a normal land pattern (normal through-hole MTH ′) and the through-holes TR2bt and TR3bt having the land pattern for the inspection machine are arranged on the same straight line that is lowered to the right. (That is, the through-holes MTH ′, TR2bt, TR3bt are spaced apart from each other by at least the contact probe contact prevention distance (2.5 mm in this embodiment) in the vertical direction and at least contact probes in the vertical direction. The contact prevention distance (in this embodiment, 2.5 mm) is arranged apart from each other, so that the contact probe is in contact with the through hole MTH ′ and the through hole TR2bt. Contact probe and through hole TR3bt It is possible to prevent the contact probes that are in contact with each other from being in electrical contact with each other. Although the through hole MTH ′ and the through hole TR2at are arranged in the vicinity, the through hole MTH ′ and the through hole TR2at are at least a contact probe contact prevention distance in the vertical direction (2.5 mm in this embodiment). In addition to being spaced apart as described above, they are spaced apart in the vertical direction by at least the contact probe contact prevention distance (2.5 mm in this embodiment).

  For example, when a wiring pattern is routed to an electronic component, the through-hole is routed from the copper foil surface around which the wiring pattern is routed to another copper foil surface in order to avoid obstacles such as other electronic components and other wiring patterns. It is provided on the substrate for routing the wiring and is used for avoiding obstacles. As described above, in this embodiment, the through hole has an inner diameter of 0.3 mm and an outer diameter of the land pattern: 0.6 mm. Also in this embodiment, normal through holes (that is, through holes for avoiding obstacles) are formed in various boards such as the main control board 1310.

  In the present embodiment, for example, when a wiring pattern is routed between a lead that is the first terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and a lead that is the 13th terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2, Since the wiring pattern TR electrically connected to the lead serving as the twelfth terminal of the electronic component SMD2 is an obstacle, as described above, as a normal wiring pattern routing, one of the SMD type electronic components SMD1 is used. The wiring pattern TR1 that electrically connects the lead serving as the terminal and the lead serving as the 13th terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 includes the lead serving as the first terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the SMD type The SMD type electronic component SMD is disposed in the vicinity of the lead serving as the 13th terminal of the electronic component SMD2. One end of the rectangular land pattern soldered to the lead serving as the first terminal is electrically connected, and the other end of the wiring pattern TR1a is electrically connected to the through hole TR1at having the land pattern for the inspection machine. A rectangular land pattern soldered to a lead serving as the 13th terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2, and a through hole having one end electrically connected and the other end having a normal land pattern (that is, a failure) Through-holes for avoiding objects) A wiring pattern TR1b electrically connected to MTH ′ is formed on the copper foil surface on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x side of the main control board 1310, and one end is inspected. It is electrically connected to the through-hole TR1at having a machine land pattern and the other end has a normal land pattern. Through holes (i.e., through-hole for avoiding the obstacle) and wiring pattern electrically connected to TR1c is formed on the copper foil surface of the back (solder side) 1310Y side of the main control board 1310.

  On the other hand, the lead that becomes the fourth terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the lead that becomes the eleventh terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2, Although there are no obstacles such as other wiring patterns, as described above, the lead serving as the 4th terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the lead serving as the 11th terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 The wiring pattern TR2 is electrically connected to the surface (mounting surface) of the main control board 1310 on the copper foil surface on the side of the main control board 1310x. A lead serving as the fourth terminal of the electronic component SMD1 and a lead serving as the eleventh terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 are arranged in the vicinity. A through-hole TR2at having a rectangular land pattern soldered to a lead to be the fourth terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and one end electrically connected and the other end having an inspection machine land pattern The wiring pattern TR2a electrically connected to the lead and the rectangular land pattern soldered to the lead serving as the 11th terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 are electrically connected to one end and the other end is inspected. A wiring pattern TR2b electrically connected to the through-hole TR2bt having the land pattern for use is formed on the copper foil surface on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x side of the main control board 1310, and one end is for the inspection machine It is electrically connected to the through hole TR2at having a land pattern and the other end is a land pattern for an inspection machine. Through hole TR2bt electrically connected to the wiring pattern TR2c having emission is formed on the copper foil surface of the back (solder side) 1310Y side of the main control board 1310.

  That is, in the present embodiment, the through holes TR2at and TR2bt having the inspection machine land pattern are used to avoid obstacles such as other electronic components and other wiring patterns when routing the wiring pattern to the electronic components. Unlike a normal through-hole (that is, a through-hole for avoiding obstacles) that is provided in the board to route wiring from one copper foil surface to another copper foil surface, contact probes and electrical It is provided so that it can be connected.

  In the present embodiment, a normal through hole (that is, a through hole for avoiding an obstacle) may be soldered, covered with a resist, coated, or soldered. The copper foil surface which is not covered with the resist at all may be exposed.

  Here, since the through holes TR1at, TR2at, TR2bt, TR3at, TR3bt, and TR4at having the inspection machine land pattern with which the contact probe is in contact have the same structure, the through hole TR3at having the inspection machine land pattern will be described. To do.

  As shown in FIG. 69 (c), the through hole TR3at having the inspection machine land pattern is formed with a through hole in the base material 1310o of the main control board 1310 and the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310. The copper foil surface of the main control board 1310 and the copper foil surface of the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310 are respectively formed to form a land pattern for an inspection machine having an outer diameter TR3atD1. In this embodiment, the outer diameter of the land pattern for inspection machines formed on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310 and the outer diameter of the land pattern formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310 Is the outer diameter TR3atD1, which is the same size.

  On the copper foil surface of the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310, for example, a region where the periphery of the through hole TR3at having the land pattern for the inspection machine and the wiring pattern TR3a is removed is formed. Although the liquid is applied to form the surface (mounting surface) side resist layer 1310xr, the resist solution is applied to the region corresponding to the land pattern for the inspection machine in the surface (mounting surface) side resist layer 1310xr. Absent. Further, on the copper foil surface of the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310, for example, a region in which the periphery of the through hole TR3at having the land pattern for inspection machine and the wiring pattern TR3c is removed is formed. Although the resist solution is applied to form the back surface (solder surface) side resist layer 1310yr, the resist solution is applied to the region corresponding to the inspection machine land pattern in the back surface (solder surface) side resist layer 1310yr. Not.

The back surface (solder surface) of the inspection machine land pattern formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y is soldered.

  As described above, the wiring pattern in which the lead of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the lead of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 are electrically connected is connected to the main control board 1310 through the through hole having the land pattern for the inspection machine. The surface (mounting surface) 1310x side of the copper foil surface and the back surface (solder surface) 1310y side of the copper foil surface of the main control board 1310 are formed on the copper foil surface. By using the hole as a test pad and making contact with the contact probe PRB, electrical inspection can be performed using the electrical connection between the lead of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the lead of the SMD type electronic component SMD2. .

[Modification]
In the present embodiment described above, for example, for the inspection machine formed on the surface of the through hole TR3at having the land pattern for inspection machine with which the contact probe PRB contacts (that is, the surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310). The front surface of the land pattern and the back surface (solder surface) of the main control board 1310 (the surface of the land pattern for the inspection machine formed on the solder surface) 1310y were soldered, but the copper foil was exposed without soldering. It is good also as a state.

  In the present embodiment described above, for example, the through hole TR3at having the inspection machine land pattern with which the contact probe PRB is contacted is formed on the front surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310 and the back surface (solder surface) of the main control board 1310. ) The inspection machine land pattern is formed on each of 1310y, but the contact probe PRB is previously in contact with the front surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310 and the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310. If one surface to be determined is determined, the determined one side is not formed on both the front surface (mounting surface) 1310x of the main control board 1310 and the back surface (solder surface) 1310y of the main control board 1310. It may be formed on the surface.

  Further, through holes having an inspection machine land pattern may be provided for all leads of the SMD type electronic component in the above-described embodiment. By doing so, the degree of freedom in routing the wiring pattern can be expanded, so that the artwork of the main control board 1310 can be efficiently performed. At this time, it is necessary to check whether the through holes having the land pattern for the inspection machine are paired. Even if there is a pair of through-holes having a land pattern for an inspection machine, there is no problem if an inspection can be performed in an electrical inspection.

  In the above-described embodiment, when mounting the SMD type electronic component on the main control board 1310, the through hole having the inspection machine land pattern is provided in the main control board 1310, but it is treated as the main board. In addition to the main control board 1310, when mounting a plurality of SMD type electronic components on the surface (mounting surface) of the power supply board 630 or the surface (mounting surface) of the payout control board 633, a land pattern for an inspection machine is provided. By providing a through hole on the power supply board 630 and the payout control board 633, the through hole having a land pattern for an inspection machine is used as a test pad and brought into contact with a contact probe, so that electrical among a plurality of SMD type electronic components can be obtained. Electrical inspection can be performed using the electrical connection between leads of SMD type electronic components connected to

  In the above-described embodiment, the wiring pattern TR2 that electrically connects the lead serving as the fourth terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 and the lead serving as the eleventh terminal of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 includes: The through holes TR2at and TR2bt having the inspection machine land pattern are used, but one of the pair of through holes TR2at and TR2bt having the inspection machine land pattern is a through hole having a normal land pattern (normal through hole). MTH ′ (that is, a through hole for avoiding an obstacle)) MTH ′ may be used. For example, when it is difficult to arrange the inspection machine land pattern separated by a contact probe contact prevention distance (2.5 mm in this embodiment) or more by routing the wiring pattern, the inspection machine land pattern is used instead. This is because an electrical inspection can be performed using the other through hole for inspection even if it is a normal through hole. For example, instead of the through hole TR2bt having the land pattern for the inspection machine, the through hole having the normal land pattern (the normal through hole MTH ′ (that is, the through hole for avoiding the obstacle)) MTH ′ is used. Can do.

  In the embodiment described above, a through hole having a land pattern for an inspection machine is used to route a wiring pattern between ICs having the same SMD package (SOP14) as the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 as two SMD type electronic components SMD1 and SMD2. However, not only between ICs but also wiring patterns between terminals of SMD type electronic components (for example, wiring patterns between terminals of IC and resistors, which are SMD type electronic components, ICs and capacitors) Wiring pattern between terminals, wiring pattern between resistors and resistors, wiring pattern between capacitors and resistors, wiring pattern between IC and diode terminals) A through hole may be used.

  Incidentally, a gaming machine in which an electronic component is mounted on a board has been conventionally proposed (for example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2014-144218 (paragraph [0042] and FIG. 4)). By the way, it is not possible to provide a test pad used for electrical inspection on a board that controls the progress of the game. For this reason, when an electronic component with a narrow lead pitch is mounted on a game control board that controls the progress of the game, there is a problem that it is difficult to perform an electrical inspection.

[6-5. Measures against electromagnetic noise that enters through the setting key switch]
Next, countermeasures against electromagnetic wave noise entering through the setting key switch 1311a provided on the setting change board 1311 will be described in detail with reference to FIG. As described above, since the setting key switch 1311a includes a resin type and a metal type, first, countermeasures against electromagnetic wave noise with respect to the resin type setting key switch 1311a will be described. An electromagnetic noise countermeasure for the setting key switch 1311a will be described. FIG. 70 is a diagram (a) showing the surface (mounting surface) of the setting change board 1311 in the method of connecting the metal frame plate of the setting key switch to the ground (GND), and the metal frame plate of the setting key switch.

As described above, the resin type setting key switch 1311a is rotated by inserting a setting key into the non-conductive resin-made cylindrical outer cylinder 1311aa and the inner side of the outer cylinder 1311aa. A non-conductive resin setting key cylinder 1311ab and a non-conductive resin which is connected to the outer cylinder 1311aa and a circuit for turning the contact ON / OFF by turning the setting key cylinder 1311ab is formed. A rectangular parallelepiped base body 1311ac and a hole penetrating the outer cylinder 1311aa are formed at a position corresponding to the outer cylinder 1311aa, bent so as to cover the surface and side surfaces of the base body 1311ac, and protrudes to the rear of the base body 1311ac.

  Further, in the resin type setting key switch 1311a, as described above, the outer cylinder 1311aa and the setting key cylinder 1311ab are each formed of non-conductive resin, so that a person who is charged with static electricity sets it. Even when the front surface of the key switch 1311a (that is, the front surface of the outer cylinder 1311aa and the front surface of the setting key cylinder 1311ab) is touched, electromagnetic noise due to electrostatic discharge enters the setting change board 1311 via the setting key switch 1311a. And an end portion of the rib portion 1301za formed along the outer periphery of the through hole 1301z of the cover body 1301 of the non-conductive resin main control board box 1320. The distance between the key switch 1311a and the surface of the metal frame plate 1311ad Since it is separated by a dimension d (about 2 mm in this embodiment), even if a person charged with static electricity touches the through hole 1301z of the resin cover body 1301 having non-conductivity or its periphery, Electromagnetic wave noise due to electric discharge enters the setting change board 1311 via the setting key switch 1311a because it becomes difficult to enter the metal frame plate 1311ad of the setting key switch 1311a via the through hole 1301z and the rib portion 1301za. Can be prevented.

  In this way, the resin type setting key switch 1311a can prevent electromagnetic noise that enters the setting change board 1311 through itself, and therefore, for the purpose of further enhancing the anti-electromagnetic noise, A method of fixing the metal frame plate 1311ad of the resin type setting key switch 1311a to the setting change board 1311 so as to be electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311, and a resin type setting key switch A method of fixing the metal frame plate 1311ad of 1311a to the setting change board 1311 so as to be insulated from the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311 without being electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311; There is.

Due to these areas where the foil is removed, the setting change substrate 1311 is electrically insulated from the solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y. . It should be noted that on the surface (mounting surface) 1311x of the setting change board 1311, a pair of projecting pieces 1311ada and 1311ada formed on the metal frame plate 1311ad of the setting key switch 1311a can be inserted to the left and right of the setting change board 1311. For a pair of opposing long through holes SLH1 and SLH2 having a long slot shape along the direction, the long through holes are not taken away from the outer periphery of the long through holes SLH1 and SLH2 when soldering. Copper foils are removed from the holes SLH1 and SLH2, and thermal patterns (cross-shaped patterns) are provided at both ends in the longitudinal direction of each long hole. Due to this thermal pattern (cross-shaped pattern), the long through holes SLH1 and SLH2 are electrically connected to the solid ground (substrate ground).

In addition, the surface (mounting surface) 1311x of the setting change board 1311 was cut out of a copper plane formed by removing the copper foil around the through holes SSTH1, SSTH2, and SSTH3 with respect to the connector SMCN of the setting change board 1311. A foil removal region is also formed. Due to these areas where the foil is removed, the setting change substrate 1311 is electrically insulated from the solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y. .

  The rear surface (solder surface) 1311y of the setting change substrate 1311 is the same as the foil removal region SINSx at a position corresponding to the foil removal region SINSx formed on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x of the setting change substrate 1311 on the copper plane. A foil-extracted foil removal region SINSy formed by removing the copper foil is formed except for the wiring patterns SPTN1, SPTN2, and SPTN3 described above. The foil drawing area SINSy is formed along the wiring patterns SPTN1, SPTN2, and SPTN3 to the periphery of the through holes SSTH1, SSTH2, and SSTH3 with respect to the connector SMCN of the setting change board 1311. Due to this foil removal region SINSy, the long through holes SLH1, SLH2, the through holes SLTH1, SLTH2, SLTH3, SLTH4, the wiring patterns SPTN1, SPTN2, SPTN3, and the through holes SSTH1, SSTH2, SSTH3 are formed on the surface (mounting) It is in a state of being electrically insulated from a solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y.

  It should be noted that through holes STH are formed at the four corners of the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y of the setting change substrate 1311. These four through holes STH are a solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the surface (mounting surface) 1311x of the setting change substrate 1311 and a solid ground (substrate surface) formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1311y of the setting change substrate 1311 ( Board ground) and the same ground (GND).

  The entire surface of the setting change substrate 1311 (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y is solid-coated with a resist of a predetermined color so as to cover the copper plane except for the various through holes described above. The surface (mounting surface) 1311x of the setting change board 1311 is a color different from the predetermined color of the resist as silk printing in the area SSLKCN1 indicating the position where the connector SMCN of the setting change board 1311 is arranged on the resist of the predetermined color. The area SSLKSW1 indicating the position where the setting key switch 1311a is arranged is silk-printed as an area SSLKSW1 indicating the position where the setting key switch 1311a is arranged in a color different from a predetermined color of the resist as silk printing. Printed with solid lines of the same color. The area SSLKSW1 is formed larger than the outer shape of the setting key switch 1311a, and the setting key switch 1311a is disposed in the area SSLKSW1 and mounted (soldered by the back surface (solder surface) 1311y of the setting change board 1311). In this state, the area SSLKSW1 line (rectangular solid line) is arranged outside the outer shape of the setting key switch 1311a. That is, even if the setting key switch 1311a is mounted, the setting key switch 1311a does not overlap the line of the area SSLKSW1 (rectangular solid line). Similarly to the region SSLKSW1, the region SSLKCN1 indicating the position where the connector SMCN of the setting change board 1311 is arranged is not overlapped by the connector SMCN even when the connector SMCN is mounted. It is like that.

  Here, the reason why the foil removal regions SINSx and SINSy of the setting change substrate 1311 are formed on the copper planes on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y of the setting change substrate 1311 will be described. By forming the foil removal regions SINSx and SINSy of the setting change board 1311 on the copper plane on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y of the setting change board 1311, the resin type setting key switch 1311a is made of metal. A pair of opposed long through holes SLH1, SLH2 having a long slot shape along the left-right direction of the setting change board 1311 through which a pair of protruding pieces 1311ada, 1311ada formed in the frame plate 1311ad can be inserted are set. The change substrate 1311 can be electrically insulated from the solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y. The substrate ground of the setting change substrate 1311 can be moved away from the pair of protruding pieces 1311ada and 1311ada formed on the metal frame plate 1311ad of the resin type setting key switch 1311a. Accordingly, in the state where the pair of protruding pieces 1311ada and 1311ada formed on the metal frame plate 1311ad of the resin type setting key switch 1311a is inserted into the long through holes SLH1 and SLH2 and soldered, the metal is temporarily assumed. Even if electromagnetic wave noise enters the frame plate 1311ad, the electromagnetic wave noise is set via the foil removal regions SINSx and SINSy formed on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y of the setting change substrate 1311. By being prevented from entering a solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y of the change substrate 1311, the metal frame plate 1311ad itself is attenuated. That is, electromagnetic wave noise from the metal frame plate 1311ad can be prevented from entering the substrate ground of the setting change substrate 1311 by the foil removal regions SINSx and SINSy. Thus, intrusion of electromagnetic wave noise from the metal frame plate 1311ad can be prevented on the setting change board 1311 side, so that the intrusion of electromagnetic wave noise is important for controlling the progress of the game via the setting change board 1311. Proceeding to the substrate ground of the main control board 1310 which is the control board can be reliably stopped, and no fluctuation is given to the ground line which transmits the board ground (ground).

  Thus, the metal frame plate 1311ad of the resin type setting key switch 1311a is insulated from the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311 without being electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311. In the method of fixing to the setting change board 1311, a pair of protruding pieces 1311ada and 1311ada formed on the metal frame plate 1311ad of the resin type setting key switch 1311a are inserted into the long through holes SLH1 and SLH2 and soldered. In this state, even if electromagnetic wave noise enters the metal frame plate 1311ad, the electromagnetic wave noise is removed from the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the rear surface (solder surface) 1311y of the setting change substrate 1311. Via regions SINSx and SINSy Since it is prevented from entering the solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y of the constant change substrate 1311 and is attenuated by the metal frame plate 1311ad itself, To the ground line that transmits the substrate ground (ground) by reliably stopping the proceeding to the substrate ground of the main control board 1310 which is an important control board for controlling the progress of the game through the setting change board 1311 It does not give fluctuations. Therefore, it can contribute to preventing malfunction of the pachinko machine 1 and destruction of electronic components.

[Countermeasures against electromagnetic noise for metal type setting key switches]
As described above, the metal type setting key switch 1311a is a metal cylindrical outer cylinder 1311aa and a metal setting in which the setting key is inserted and rotated with respect to the inner side of the outer cylinder 1311aa. The key cylinder 1311ab has the same configuration as the resin-type setting key switch 1311a in that the material of the same configuration as the resin-type setting key switch 1311a is different.

  In the metal type setting key switch 1311a, as described above, the outer cylinder 1311aa and the setting key cylinder 1311ab are molded of metal, and the outer cylinder 1311aa and the setting key cylinder 1311ab are electrically connected. It has become a state. Although the outer cylinder 1311aa is connected to a non-conductive resin base body 1311ac, the metal frame plate 1311ad has a hole penetrating the outer cylinder 1311aa at a position corresponding to the outer cylinder 1311aa. The surface and side surfaces of the base body 1311ac are covered. That is, when a metal setting key is inserted into the insertion port 1311aba formed on the front surface of the setting key cylinder 1311ab and electromagnetic wave noise enters through the metal setting key, as described above, the outer cylinder 1311aa Since the setting key cylinder 1311ab is in an electrically connected state, there is a problem that electromagnetic noise may enter the metal frame plate 1311ad.

  Thus, unlike the resin type setting key switch 1311a described above, the metal type setting key switch 1311a cannot prevent electromagnetic noise from entering the setting change board 1311 through itself. Therefore, as a countermeasure against electromagnetic wave noise, the metal frame plate 1311ad of the metal type setting key switch 1311a is not electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311 and is connected from the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311. There is a method of fixing to the setting change substrate 1311 so as to be insulated.

[Metal type: Method of insulating a metal frame plate from the ground]
Setting change board so that the metal frame plate 1311ad of the metal type setting key switch 1311a is insulated from the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311 without being electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311. The method of fixing to 1311 is the above-described grounding of the setting change board 1311 without electrically connecting the metal frame plate 1311ad of the resin type setting key switch 1311a to the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311. Since it is the same as the method of fixing to the setting change board 1311 so as to be insulated from GND), the description is omitted, but the setting is made on the copper plane on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y of the setting change board 1311. Foil removal areas SINSx and SINSy of the change board 1311 are formed. It will be described reason.

  By forming the foil removal regions SINSx and SINSy of the setting change board 1311 on the copper plane on the front surface (mounting surface) and the back surface (solder surface) of the setting change board 1311, a metal frame of the metal type setting key switch 1311a is formed. A pair of opposing long through holes SLH1 and SLH2 having a long slot shape along the left-right direction of the setting change board 1311 through which the pair of protruding pieces 1311ada and 1311ada formed in the plate 1311ad can be inserted are the setting change boards. It is possible to be electrically insulated from a solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y of 1311.

  In other words, the substrate ground of the setting change substrate 1311 can be moved away from the pair of protruding pieces 1311ada and 1311ada formed on the metal frame plate 1311ad of the metal type setting key switch 1311a, and the setting is made. The board ground of the change board 1311 (main control board 1310) is not exposed through the setting key switch 1311a (that is, the metal outer cylinder 1311aa, the metal setting key cylinder 1311ab, and the metal frame plate 1311ad). It has become. Accordingly, in a state where the pair of protruding pieces 1311ada and 1311ada formed on the metal frame plate 1311ad of the metal type setting key switch 1311a are inserted into the long through holes SLH1 and SLH2 and soldered, the metal Even if electromagnetic noise enters the outer cylinder 1311aa, the metal setting key cylinder 1311ab, and the metal frame plate 1311ad, the electromagnetic noise passes through the metal frame plate 1311ad and the surface of the setting change substrate 1311. Solid ground (formed on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y of the setting change substrate 1311 through the foil removal regions SINSx and SINSy formed on the 1311x (mounting surface) and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y. Invade the board ground) It metallic outer cylinder 1311aa by is prevented, metallic setting key cylinder 1311Ab, and is attenuated by the metal frame plate 1311ad itself. That is, it is possible to prevent electromagnetic wave noise from the metal outer cylinder 1311aa, the metal setting key cylinder 1311ab, and the metal frame plate 1311ad from entering the board ground of the setting change board 1311 by the foil removal areas SINSx and SINSy. Can do. Accordingly, intrusion of electromagnetic wave noise from the metal outer cylinder 1311aa, the metal setting key cylinder 1311ab, and the metal frame plate 1311ad can be prevented on the setting change board 1311 side. Can be reliably stopped from going to the board ground of the main control board 1310, which is an important control board for controlling the progress of the game via the setting change board 1311, and the ground line for transmitting the board ground (ground) It does not give fluctuations.

  In this way, the metal frame plate 1311ad of the metal type setting key switch 1311a is insulated from the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311 without being electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311. In the method of fixing to the setting change board 1311, a pair of protruding pieces 1311ada and 1311ada formed on the metal frame plate 1311ad of the metal type setting key switch 1311a are inserted into the long through holes SLH1 and SLH2 and soldered. In this state, even if electromagnetic wave noise enters the metal outer cylinder 1311aa, the metal setting key cylinder 1311ab, and the metal frame plate 1311ad, the electromagnetic wave noise passes through the metal frame plate 1311ad. Of the setting change board 1311 Solid ground formed on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y of the setting change substrate 1311 via the foil removal regions SINSx and SINSy formed on the surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y. Since it is prevented from entering the (substrate ground) and is attenuated by the metal outer cylinder 1311aa, the metal setting key cylinder 1311ab, and the metal frame plate 1311ad itself, the electromagnetic wave noise that has entered is changed to the setting change substrate 1311. The ground line for transmitting the substrate ground (ground) is not changed by reliably stopping the progress to the substrate ground of the main control substrate 1310 which is an important control substrate for controlling the progress of the game via . Therefore, it can contribute to preventing malfunction of the pachinko machine 1 and destruction of electronic components.

  Note that the space between the metal outer cylinder 1311aa and the metal setting key cylinder 1311ab is filled with a non-conductive resin (insulating resin), and the metal setting key cylinder 1311ab is connected to the metal outer cylinder 1311aa. A configuration in which the metal outer cylinder 1311aa and the metal setting key cylinder 1311ab are not electrically connected to each other and insulated may be employed by adopting a rotatable configuration. Even with this configuration, even if electromagnetic wave noise enters from the metal outer cylinder 1311aa, the electromagnetic wave noise passes through the metal frame plate 1311ad and the front surface 1311x (mounting surface) and back surface of the setting change substrate 1311. (Solder surface) It penetrates into the solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y of the setting change substrate 1311 via the foil removal regions SINSx and SINSy formed on the 1311y. Is blocked by the metal outer cylinder 1311aa and the metal frame plate 1311ad itself. That is, electromagnetic wave noise from the metal outer cylinder 1311aa can be prevented from entering the substrate ground of the setting change substrate 1311 by the foil removal regions SINSx and SINSy. Thus, invasion of electromagnetic wave noise from the metal outer cylinder 1311aa can be prevented on the setting change board 1311 side, so that the intrusion of electromagnetic wave noise is important for controlling the progress of the game via the setting change board 1311. Proceeding to the substrate ground of the main control board 1310 which is the control board can be reliably stopped, and no fluctuation is given to the ground line which transmits the board ground (ground). Therefore, it can contribute to preventing malfunction of the pachinko machine 1 and destruction of electronic components.

  In addition, the cover body 1301 of the main control board box 1320 is configured by covering the entire or front side of the metal outer cylinder 1311aa with a non-conductive resin cap or rubber cap (lid). The cap (lid body) may be exposed from the through hole 1301z formed in. On the front surface of such a cap (lid), an opening is provided at a position corresponding to the insertion port 1311aba formed on the front surface of the metal setting key cylinder 1311ab.

[Selecting the setting key switch]
Here, the selection method of the setting key switch 1311a will be briefly described. As described above, the setting key switch 1311a includes a resin type and a metal type. As described above, the resin type setting key switch 1311a can prevent electromagnetic noise entering the setting change board 1311 through itself, and therefore, for the purpose of further enhancing electromagnetic noise resistance. A method of fixing the metal frame plate 1311ad of the resin type setting key switch 1311a to the setting change board 1311 so as to be electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311; and a resin type setting key. A method of fixing the metal frame plate 1311ad of the switch 1311a to the setting change board 1311 so as to be insulated from the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311 without being electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311; There is. In the metal type setting key switch, as described above, the metal frame plate 1311ad of the metal type setting key switch 1311a is not electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311, and the setting change board. There is only a method of fixing to the setting change substrate 1311 so as to be insulated from the ground (GND) of 1311. The setting key switch 1311a is basically a resin type, and the metal frame plate 1311ad of the resin type setting key switch 1311a is electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311. A method of fixing to the setting change board 1311 so as to be connected is adopted.

  If a problem such as malfunction of the pachinko machine 1 or malfunction of electronic parts occurs due to the influence of the electromagnetic noise in the test for anti-electromagnetic noise, the resin type setting key switch 1311a is adopted and the resin The setting change board 1311 is insulated from the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311 without being electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311. The method of fixing to is adopted. In this case, a metal type setting key switch 1311a is employed instead of the resin type setting key switch 1311a, and the metal frame plate 1311ad of the metal type setting key switch 1311a is connected to the ground ( It is also possible to employ a method of fixing to the setting change board 1311 so as to be insulated from the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311 without being electrically connected to the GND.

[Status where electromagnetic noise may enter the setting key switch]
A state in which electromagnetic noise may enter the setting key switch 1311a will be described. As described above, the setting key is inserted into the insertion port 1311aba provided in the front surface of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a. This setting key is an important key that allows you to check the current setting value in addition to changing the setting value, so only a limited number of people including the game hall manager are allowed to possess it. And is limited to 2-3 people. For this reason, when confirming the set value or changing the set value, first, a staff member such as a clerk of the game hall opens the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2, and then the metal A person who has the setting key accesses the setting key switch 1311a. That is, the person who opens the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 may be different from the person who accesses the setting key switch 1311a.

  Then, an attendant such as a game hall clerk who opens the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 is charged by itself when inserting a regular metal key into the key hole 128 of the cylinder lock 127 and rotating it. Electromagnetic noise due to electrostatic discharge can be transmitted to the cylinder lock 127 via a regular metal key. As described above, the cylinder lock 127 is attached to a metal door frame reinforcement unit in the door frame base unit of the door frame 3, and this metal door frame reinforcement unit is connected to the frame ground via the door frame metal ground wire. The substrate 559 is electrically connected. This frame ground substrate 559 is electrically connected to the ground of the island facility of the game hall via the island facility ground wire. That is, a staff member such as a game hall clerk who opens the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 is charged by itself and electrostatically discharged when inserting a regular metal key into the key hole 128 of the cylinder lock 127. The electromagnetic noise caused by the noise is transmitted to the cylinder lock 127 via a regular metal key, so that the door lock reinforcing unit, the door frame metal ground wire, the frame ground substrate 559, the island equipment ground wire, It can be removed from the pachinko machine 1 to the ground of the island facility in the game hall. On the other hand, a person who accesses the setting key switch 1311a does not touch the cylinder lock 127, so that the electromagnetic noise caused by electrostatic discharge due to charging of the cylinder key 127 is set via a regular metal key. 1311a.

  Since the resin type setting key switch 1311a can prevent electromagnetic noise entering the setting change board 1311 through itself, the resin type setting key switch 1311a can be set for the purpose of further enhancing the electromagnetic noise resistance. A method of fixing the metal frame plate 1311ad of the key switch 1311a to the setting change board 1311 so as to be insulated from the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311 without being electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311. In addition, the metal frame plate 1311ad of the metal type setting key switch 1311a is set to be insulated from the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311 without being electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the setting change board 1311. In the method of fixing to the change board 1311, the setting change board 1 11 is formed on the copper plane on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y of the setting change board 1311, so that the person who accesses the setting key switch 1311a is charged with static electricity. Electromagnetic wave noise due to electric discharge is further included in the metal frame plate 1311ad of the setting key switch 1311a (in the case of a metal type setting key switch 1311a, a metal outer cylinder 1311aa and a metal setting key cylinder 1311ab are further included. It can be attenuated by. Thereby, it is possible to prevent electromagnetic wave noise caused by charging and electrostatic discharge of the person who accesses the setting key switch 1311a from entering the substrate ground of the setting change substrate 1311.

  As described above, the door frame 3 includes various decorative portions, and electromagnetic noise that has entered the various decorative portions is transmitted to a metal door frame reinforcing unit via a wiring (not shown). It is transmitted to the frame ground substrate 559 via the ground wire, and is transmitted from the frame ground substrate 559 to the ground of the island facility of the game hall via the island facility ground wire, and is removed from the pachinko machine 1. The various decorative parts decorate the entire front surface of the pachinko machine 1 and are arranged on substantially the entire door frame 3, so that a person accessing the setting key switch 1311a is conscious of the door frame 3 when accessing it. If you touch it without touching, you will touch various decorative parts on the door frame 3, and electromagnetic noise due to electrostatic discharge will be transmitted to the ground of the island facility in the game hall and removed from the pachinko machine 1 It has come to be.

The right side in front view in the vertical direction may be provided in the open side portion of the main body frame 4. Further, since the pachinko machine 1 is arranged in a plurality of rows facing the island facilities in the game hall, when the main body frame 4 of one pachinko machine 1 is opened from the outer frame 2, it faces the one pachinko machine 1. A staff member such as a store clerk of the game hall reaches the back side of the other pachinko machine 1 that is. When a clerk of a game hall clerk or the like releases the main body frame 4 of one pachinko machine 1 from the outer frame 2 for some reason, the back of the other pachinko machine 1 opposite the one pachinko machine 1 There is also a case to access the side. Therefore, since it is necessary to remove electromagnetic noise caused by electrostatic discharge due to charging of the clerk of the game hall, etc., an electrostatic removal pad can be used as a part that can be reached by a clerk of the game hall. It may be provided on the rear surface side of the back cover 640, may be provided on the rear surface side of the interface board cover 636, may be provided on the rear surface side of the cover body of the dispensing control board box 632, or may be provided on the rear surface of the dispensing device 350.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, you may comprise the main body frame base unit 300 of the main body frame 5 by shape | molding with the resin which has electroconductivity. The main body frame base unit 300 has a metal main body frame reinforcing frame 530 attached to the left side surface in a front view, so that the main body frame base unit 300 and the main body frame reinforcing frame 530 are electrically connected. . The main body frame reinforcing frame 530 is electrically connected to the frame ground substrate 559 described above via a main body frame metal ground wire (not shown). The frame ground substrate 559 is electrically connected to the ground of the island facility of the game hall via an island facility ground wire (not shown). Thereby, a staff member such as a store clerk in the game hall or a person accessing the setting key switch 1311a can, for example, enter the main body frame base unit 300 on the open side of the main body frame 4 in a state where the door frame 3 is opened from the main body frame 4. Since the left hand can be placed to support the body and the right hand can be extended to the back side of the main body frame 4 or the back side of the game board 5, when the left hand is placed on the main body frame base unit 300, it is charged by itself When the electromagnetic wave noise due to the electric discharge is transmitted to the main body frame base unit 300 and transmitted to the metal door frame reinforcing unit, it is transmitted to the frame ground substrate 559 via the door frame metal ground wire, and the frame ground substrate 559 is grounded to the island facility. It is transmitted to the ground of the island facility of the game hall through the wire and removed from the pachinko machine 1.

  In the present embodiment, the cylinder lock 127 is attached to the metal door frame reinforcement unit in the door frame base unit of the door frame 3 as described above, and the metal door frame reinforcement unit is connected to the door frame metal ground. Although the frame ground substrate 559 is electrically connected to the ground of the island facility of the game hall via the island facility ground wire, the frame ground substrate 559 is electrically connected to the frame ground substrate 559 via the wire. The wire is not electrically connected to the frame ground substrate 559, but is electrically connected to the terminal of the power supply substrate 630 of the main body frame 4 so as to electrically connect the metal door frame reinforcing unit and the power supply substrate 630. It may be. The door frame 3 is used to decorate the entire front surface of the pachinko machine 1 and includes various decorative portions. The various decorative portions may have no decorative plating at all. Among the various decorative parts, those with decorative plating on the entire front and back surfaces are electrically connected to a metal door frame reinforcement unit via a wiring not shown in the figure, Although the frame ground substrate 559 is electrically connected to the ground of the island facility in the game hall through the island facility ground wire, the door frame metal ground wire is not electrically connected to the frame ground substrate 559, and the body frame The metal door frame reinforcing unit and the power supply board 630 may be electrically connected by electrically connecting to the terminals of the fourth power supply board 630. The power supply board 630 is supplied with AC 24V from the island facility in the game hall. This AC 24V has L (live) and N (neutral). The L terminal of the power supply board 630 to which L (live) is input is connected to the non-grounded side, and N (neutral) is input. The N terminal of the power supply board 630 is connected to the ground side. Therefore, a surge protection element (surge absorber) for transiently protecting from an excessive voltage is provided on the power supply substrate 630. Although this surge protection element (surge absorber) normally has a high resistance value and hardly flows current, when an excessive voltage (abnormal voltage) enters, the resistance value decreases instantaneously and current flows and the excessive voltage disappears. In addition, it has a performance to return to the original normal resistance value (high resistance value). Thereby, electromagnetic noise transmitted from the metal door frame reinforcement unit is transmitted from the terminal of the power supply board 630 to the ground side (earth) from the N terminal of the power supply board 630 by the surge protection element (surge absorber) and removed from the pachinko machine 1. Is done.

[Arrangement of main control board box and drive board box]
Here, the arrangement of the main control board box 1320 and the drive board box 1730 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 71 is a diagram showing a lower part of the left side view of the game board with the main control board box attached to the game board.

  As described above, the main control board box 1320 of the main control unit 1300 is attached to the rear surface of the board holder 1200 attached to the lower rear side of the game panel 1100 of the game board 5. As described above, the drive board box 1730 is attached to the rear surface of the effect display device 1600 attached to the rear surface of the back unit 3000 of the game panel 1100 of the game board 5. When the main control board 1310 and the setting change board 1311 are accommodated in the main control board box 1320 and attached to the rear face of the board holder 1200, as shown in FIG. 71, the rear face of the cover body 1301 of the main control board box 1320. Is disposed closer to the front side of the game board 5 with a distance dimension da with respect to the rear surface of the cover body of the drive board box 1730.

  Explaining this arrangement, as described above, the insertion port 1311aba for inserting the metal setting key is provided on the front surface of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a. The front surfaces of the outer cylinder 1311aa and the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a are flush with the surface of the cover body of the main control board box 1320 when the setting change board 1311 is accommodated in the main control board box 1320. In other words, the outer cylinder 1311aa of the setting key switch 1311a and the front surface of the setting key cylinder 1311ab do not protrude outward from the surface of the cover body of the main control board box 1320. When an operator performs the work of mounting the game board 5 on the main body frame 4 of the pachinko machine 1 installed in the island facility of the game hall, first, temporarily place it on the front surface of the pachinko machine 1 or around it. Even when the game board 5 is removed from the main body frame 4 of the pachinko machine 1, the removed game board 5 is temporarily placed on the front surface of the pachinko machine 1 or around it. For this reason, the temporarily placed game board 5 may be stopped during work, and the operator's leg may hit the game board 5 and fall down.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the main control board 1310 and the setting change board 1311 are accommodated in the main control board box 1320 and attached to the rear face of the board holder 1200, the rear face of the cover body 1301 of the main control board box 1320. Adopts a configuration in which a distance dimension da is disposed closer to the front side of the game board 5 with respect to the rear surface of the cover body of the drive board box 1730. As a result, when the worker places the game board 5 temporarily on or around the front surface of the pachinko machine 1, the operator's leg hits the game board 5 and the back side of the game board 5 faces the floor of the game hall. Even if it falls down, the rear surface of the cover body 1301 of the main control board box 1320 has a distance dimension da with respect to the rear surface of the cover body of the drive board box 1730 and is arranged closer to the front side of the game board 5. Even if the cover body of the drive board box 1730 and the lower side of the main control board box 1320 are in contact with the floor of the game hall because the cover body of the drive board box 1730 protrudes compared to the main control board box 1320. A space is surely formed between the outer cylinder 1311aa of the key switch 1311a and the front portion of the setting key cylinder 1311ab between the floor of the game hall. In can be prevented from colliding with the floor of the gaming hall.

  In addition, inside the island facility of the game hall, as described above, a plurality of types of wirings for electrically connecting with various connection terminals of the external terminal plate 558 of the pachinko machine 1 are suspended from the upper part, Depending on the specifications of the pachinko machine 1, there are wiring that is electrically connected to the external terminal plate 558 and wiring that is not electrically connected to the external terminal plate 558. In other words, the wiring that is not electrically connected to the external terminal board 558 becomes unconnected wiring, and is suspended from the upper part of the island facility of the game hall. Since the pachinko machines 1 are arranged in a row across the back of the island equipment in the game hall, the unconnected wiring is provided with various boards, various motors, various solenoids, and other electrical drive sources, various LEDs and various lamps. Touching the light emitting means such as a short circuit may cause a short circuit (which may cause a fire). Although the back cover 640 is formed with a plurality of slits 641, many of the back cover 640 is bent at or near the front end of the unconnected wiring, and the front end of the unconnected wiring is caught by the slit 641. Since it is difficult to invade toward the back side, a short circuit (short circuit) can be prevented. In a state where the main control board 1310 and the setting change board 1311 are accommodated in the main control board box 1320 and attached to the rear face of the board holder 1200, the rear face of the cover body 1301 of the main control board box 1320 is the cover of the drive board box 1730. Since it is arranged closer to the front side of the game board 5 with a distance dimension da with respect to the rear surface of the body, even if the tip of the unconnected wiring enters the back side of the game board 5 via the slit 641, The outer cylinder 1311aa of the setting key switch 1311a and the setting key cylinder which are blocked by the cover body of the driving board box 1730 and cannot enter the main control board box 1320 and the tip of the unconnected wiring is provided in the setting change board 1311 Contact with the front portion of 1311ab can be reliably prevented.

  Even if the tip of the unconnected wiring contacts the outer cylinder 1311aa of the setting key switch 1311a and the setting key cylinder 1311ab provided on the setting change board 1311, the resin-type setting key switch 1311a has the outer cylinder 1311aa and the setting. Since the key cylinder 1311ab is molded from non-conductive resin, there is no problem, but in the metal type setting key switch 1311a, the outer cylinder 1311aa and the setting key cylinder 1311ab are molded from metal. As described above, by forming the foil removal regions SINSx and SINSy of the setting change board 1311 on the copper plane on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y of the setting change board 1311, the gold of the setting key switch 1311a is formed. A pair of opposing long through-holes SLH1, SLH2 having a long slot shape along the left-right direction of the setting change board 1311 through which the pair of projecting pieces 1311ada, 1311ada formed in the frame plate 1311ad made of metal can be inserted, The setting change board 1311 is electrically insulated from the solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the front surface (mounting surface) 1311x and the back surface (solder surface) 1311y of the setting change board 1311, and the setting change board 1311 (main control board 1310). ) Is not exposed via the setting key switch 1311a, so there is no influence on the board ground of the main control board 1310 which is an important control board for controlling the progress of the game via the setting change board 1311. Fluctuates the ground line that transmits the ground (ground). Rukoto is not. Therefore, it can contribute to preventing malfunction of the pachinko machine 1 and destruction of electronic components.

  Note that the cover body of the drive board box 1730 and the cover body 1301 of the main control board box 1320 are formed of a non-conductive resin. When the game board 5 is mounted on the main body frame 4, the back cover 640 and the cover body of the drive board box 1730 do not contact each other and are arranged substantially in parallel in the vertical direction. 640 and the cover body 1301 of the main control board box 1320 are arranged substantially parallel to each other without contacting each other.

[Modification]
In the setting key switch 1311a described above, a predetermined number of tumbler pins are arranged in the setting key cylinder to be accommodated, but a switch in which more tumbler pins are arranged may be adopted. In this way, security can be further improved, and if it is mass-produced and widely available in the market, the unit price can be reduced and it can contribute to cost reduction. FIG. 72 shows a case where a setting key switch 1311a ′ that accommodates a setting key cylinder in which more tumbler pins are arranged is mounted on the setting change board 1311 than the setting key cylinder that is accommodated in the setting key switch 1311a. explain. FIG. 72 is a modified example 1 (a) showing a lower part of the left side view of the game board in a state where the main control board box is attached to the game board, in which the main control board box is attached to the game board. It is the modification 2 (b) which shows the lower part of the left view of the game board. In FIG. 72, the same components as described above are denoted by the same reference numerals.

  When the main control board box 1320 of the main control unit 1300 is attached to the rear surface of the board holder 1200 attached to the rear lower part of the game panel 1100 of the game board 5 described above, FIG. As shown, the front surfaces of the outer cylinder 1311aa and the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a ′ protrude from the cover body 1301 ′ of the main control board box 1320, and the outer cylinder 1311aa and the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a ′. The front surface of the drive board box 1730 has a distance dimension db with respect to the rear surface of the cover body, and is disposed so as to protrude rearward of the game board 5. In order to protect the front surface of the outer cylinder 1311aa of the setting key switch 1311a ′ and the setting key cylinder 1311ab protruding from the rear surface of the cover body of the drive board box 1730, the protective cover 1304 is pivoted on the cover body 1301 ′ of the main control board box 1320. It is supported and can be opened and closed. The protective cover 1304 is formed with a locking projection (not shown), and a locking groove (not shown) for locking the locking projection is formed in the cover body 1301 ′ of the main control board box 1320.

When the game board 5 is mounted on the main body frame 4, the game board side drawer connector (convex type) of the game board 5 is guided to the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN of the main body frame 4, and the game board side drawer connector (convex) Type) terminals and main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN terminals PN are electrically connected to each other through a DIP type small connector and a wiring (harness) (not shown). 5, control signal lines for transmitting various control signals by the main control board 1310 provided in 5 and the payout control board 633 provided in the main body frame 4 are formed.

  The main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN electrically connects the main control board 1310 provided in the game board 5 and the payout control board 633 provided in the main body frame 4, and the main body frame side drawer connector ( A main body frame side drawer connector (recessed type) DCN ′ (not shown) is provided on a main body frame side relay board KB ′ (not shown) separate from the main body frame side relay board KB. In addition to the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN ′, the main body frame side relay board KB ′ is also connected to the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN ′, as well as a DIP (Dual Inline Package). A small type connector is mounted and electrically connected to each decorative board, various sensors, and the like included in the door frame 3 via a wiring (harness) (not shown). When the game board 5 is attached to the main body frame 4, another game board side different from the game board side drawer connector (convex type) of the game board 5 electrically connected to the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN. The drawer connector (convex type) is guided by a main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN '(not shown) of the main body frame 4, each terminal of the other game board side drawer connector (convex type) and the main body frame side drawer connector (not shown). (Concave type) By connecting each terminal PN of DCN 'electrically, a peripheral control board 1510 provided in the game board 5 and a door via a DIP type small connector and a wiring (harness) not shown Control signal lines for transmitting various control signals and detection signals by the decorative boards, various sensors, various speakers, and the like provided in the frame 3 are formed. The structure of the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN ′ not shown is the same as that of the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN, and the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN ′ not shown. The fixing method of the main body frame side relay board KB ′ (not shown) is the same as the fixing method of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN to the main body frame side relay board KB (fixing method using rivets). Yes.

  In addition, a method of fixing the game board side drawer connector (convex type) of the game board 5 guided by the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN of the main body frame 4 to a game board side relay board (not shown), Other game board side relay boards (not shown) of other game board side drawer connectors (convex type) of the game board 5 guided by the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN ′ (This is different from the game board side relay board (not shown) on which the game board side drawer connector (convex type) of the game board 5 guided by the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is mounted.) The fixing method to the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is the same as the fixing method to the main body frame side relay board KB (fixing method using rivets).

  The rivet is used to fix the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN to the main body frame side relay board KB (see FIG. 74). Although the electrical connection between the main body frame 4 and the game board 5 can be automatically performed only by being attached to the frame 4, when the game board 5 is attached to the main body frame 4, the game board side drawer of the game board 5 Since a large force may be applied from the connector (convex type) to the box-shaped main body DCNa of the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN, this large force causes the pin type in the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN. This is to prevent the soldered surface from peeling off on the back surface (solder surface) of the main body frame side relay substrate KB (see FIG. 74). In addition, the case where the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is fixed to the main body frame side relay board KB (see FIG. 74) or the game board side drawer connector (convex type) is illustrated using bolts and nuts. In the case of fixing to the game board-side relay board, there is a drawback that the nut may be loosened by attaching or removing the game board 5 to or from the main body frame 4.

  In this embodiment, a pin type connector is used as each terminal PN of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN. However, when a bellows type using a terminal and a contact is used, there are the following problems. For example, when each terminal of the game board side drawer connector (convex type) of the game board 5 is a terminal and each terminal of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is a contact, the pachinko machine 1 When the game board 5 is mounted on the main body frame 4 with the power turned on, the contact between the terminal and the contact (specifically, a large current (inrush current) flows at the contact for various voltage supply lines) is welded. It becomes. If the game board 5 is forcibly pushed into the main body frame 4 with this welded state, the contact of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is bent or broken, or the game board 5 may be broken. When removing from the main body, the contact peels off from the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN and is damaged, and the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN cannot be used.

  In addition, if the terminals and contacts are welded, various control boards may malfunction due to connector damage, and electronic components mounted on various control boards may be damaged. The problem that it is necessary to provide.

  In the present embodiment, the above-described problem does not occur at all by using pin type terminals as the terminals PN of the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN. That is, even if an operator accidentally puts the game board 5 on the main body frame 4 with the power applied to the pachinko machine 1, each terminal of the game board side drawer connector (convex type) of the game board 5 and the main body The main frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN of the frame 4 is not welded to each terminal PN, and there is no need to provide a dedicated circuit for preventing welding.

[Solder short circuit prevention]
Next, prevention of solder short circuit will be described with reference to FIG. 74A and 74B are diagrams (a) to (c) for preventing solder bridges of terminals of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type), and are DIP type electrically connected to the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type). It is a figure (d)-(f) which prevents solder bridge of each terminal of a small connector of. In FIG. 74, various wiring patterns and substrate ground (GND) (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “solid ground”) are omitted from the viewability of the drawing. In FIG. 74, an arrow indicated by a solid line indicates a direction in which the solder flows when the substrate is flowed into the solder bath, and an arrow indicated by an alternate long and short dash line indicates a direction in which the substrate flows in the solder bath.

  As described above, the main body frame side relay board KB arranged at a predetermined position on the front surface of the main body frame 4 is not only the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN of the main body frame 4 but also the main body frame side drawer connector ( Concave type) A DIP type small connector electrically connected to DCN is mounted. The terminals of this DIP type small connector are of the pin type arranged in two rows. The body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is a mounting through hole DCNba, DCNba formed in the base body DCNb of the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN on the same straight line in the left-right direction of the body frame side relay board KB. And the cylindrical protrusion DCNbb are arranged (predetermined positions for the drawer connector), the DIP type small connector is arranged in the vertical direction on the main body frame side relay board KB, that is, the DIP type The terminals arranged in two rows of the small connector are arranged so as to be rotated by 90 degrees with the terminals PN arranged in the two rows of the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN (predetermined position for the small connector). .

  When the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is placed on the surface (mounting surface) KBx of the main body frame side relay board KB at a predetermined position for the drawer connector, Terminals PN are respectively inserted into through holes KTH1 having lands (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as “land KTH1”), and columnar projections DCNbb of the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN are positioning holes. Inserted through KBb, the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN mounting through holes DCNba, DCNba and mounting holes KBa, KBa formed at positions corresponding to the mounting through holes DCNba, DCNba communicate with the main body. Rivets (not shown) from the front of the frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN to the mounting through holes DCNba, DCNba End is fixed is caulked on the rear surface (the solder surface) KBy of inserted in the body frame side relay board KB Re respectively. When the DIP type small connector is placed on the surface (mounting surface) KBx of the main body frame side relay board KB at a predetermined position for the small connector, each terminal of the DIP type small connector has a through hole KTH2 having a land. (Hereinafter simply referred to as “land KTH2” in some cases).

  When the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is placed at a predetermined position for the drawer connector on the surface (mounting surface) KBx of the main body frame side relay board KB, the second level is the first level from the bottom. The six terminals PN in one row and the six terminals PN in the second row in the second row from the bottom are arranged in parallel. On the other hand, when a DIP type small connector is placed on the surface (mounting surface) KBx of the main body frame side relay board KB at a predetermined position for a small connector, there are six levels in the vertical direction and the first level from the bottom. Two terminals PN in one row, two terminals PN in the second row that is the second row from the bottom, two terminals PN in the third row that is the third row from the bottom, and the fourth row from the bottom Two terminals PN in the fourth row, two terminals PN in the fifth row, which is the fifth row from the bottom, and two terminals PN in the sixth row, which is the sixth row from the bottom, are arranged in parallel. It becomes.

  On the surface (mounting surface) KBx of the main body frame side relay board KB, the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is placed at the predetermined position for the drawer connector, and the DIP type small connector is at the predetermined position for the small connector. When placed, the terminals PN of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN and the terminals of the DIP type small connector protrude from the back surface (solder surface) KBy. In this state, the main body frame side relay board KB is flowed through the back surface (solder surface) KBy thereof to the solder bath, whereby the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN terminals PN and the lands KTH1 are connected to the main body frame side relay. It can be soldered to the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the substrate KB, and each terminal of the DIP type small connector and each land KTH2 are soldered to the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB. Can do.

  The direction in which the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay board KB flows into the solder bath is from the bottom of the six terminals PN in the second row, which is the second stage from the bottom of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN. It is in the direction toward the six terminals PN in the first row, which is the first row, and is the first row from the bottom from the two terminals in the sixth row, which is the sixth row from the bottom of the DIP type small connector. The direction is toward the two terminals in the first row. That is, in the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN, the six terminals PN in the first row, which are the first stage from the bottom, are the terminals in the last stage, and in the DIP type small connector, the first stage from the bottom. The two terminals in the first row are the final stage terminals.

  When flowing the back side (solder side) of the board into the solder bath, the solder bath with pin-type connectors aligned like the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN and DIP type small connector terminals When flowing to the top, a solder bridge may be generated along the flowing direction. In particular, a solder bridge is generated between a terminal at the final stage and a terminal at a stage before the terminal. Therefore, a solder escape pattern is formed on the terminal at the final stage.

  In the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN, as described above, the first row of six terminals PN in the first row from the bottom is the last row of terminals. Each land KTH1 is connected to a solder relief pattern KNP1 having a rectangular shape which is long in the vertical direction and has a width equal to the outer diameter of the land KTH1 (that is, each of the six terminals PN in the first row). The land KTH1 and each solder relief pattern KNP1 are electrically connected to each other, and are formed on the copper foil surface of the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB.

  In the DIP type small connector, as described above, since the two terminals in the first row from the bottom are the terminals in the final stage, each land KTH2 of the two terminals PN in the first row is Solder relief patterns KNP2 having a rectangular shape that is long in the direction and whose width is the size of the outer diameter of the land KTH2 are connected to each other (that is, each land KTH2 and each solder relief pattern of the two terminals in the first row) KNP2 is formed on the copper foil surface of the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB so that each of them is electrically connected to the KNP2.

  In this way, by forming a solder escape pattern on the terminal at the final stage, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of solder bridges at the terminal at the final stage and contribute to the prevention of solder shorts. May occur. Therefore, in this embodiment, as a method for suppressing the occurrence of solder bridges, a method of printing horizontal lines on the boundary of each step by silk printing on the resist (measure 1 by silk printing), on the resist A method of printing horizontal lines on the boundaries of each step by silk printing and printing vertical lines on the lands of each terminal adjacent to the left and right and the boundary of the solder escape pattern (measure 2 by silk printing), silk on the resist It is possible to enumerate the land of each terminal and the solder escape pattern by printing with a predetermined figure and paint the area (measure 3 by silk printing).

[Countermeasures 1 by silk printing]
First, as a method that can suppress the occurrence of solder bridges, a method of printing a horizontal line on the boundary of each step by silk printing on a resist (measure 1 by silk printing) will be described.

  In the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN, as shown in FIG. 74 (a), the first row of six terminals PN, which is the first row from the bottom, and the second row, which is the second row from the bottom. The horizontal line KSH1 is printed on the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB by silk printing at the boundary between the six terminals PN. That is, since the horizontal line KSH1 is printed by silk printing on the resist on the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB, the horizontal line KSH1 is a vertical wall like a mountain range when viewed from the resist surface. Are connected. As a result, when the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB is flowed to the solder bath, the solder needs to flow over the resist and flow over the vertical wall such as the mountain line of the horizontal line KSH1. The second row of six terminals PN and land KTH1 in the second row from the bottom, and the six terminals PN and land KTH1 in the first row from the bottom, and a vertical line like a mountain range of a horizontal line KSH1 at the boundary Since the force that separates the solder acts as the solder tries to stay on the resist by the wall, solder bridges can be suppressed at the terminals PN and the land KTH1 adjacent in the vertical direction.

  In each terminal of the DIP type small connector, as shown in FIG. 74 (d), two terminals in the sixth row, which is the sixth row from the bottom, and two terminals in the fifth row, which is the fifth row from the bottom. The horizontal line KSH2 is printed on the boundary between the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB by silk printing, two terminals in the fifth row which are the fifth row from the bottom, and the four rows from the bottom A horizontal line KSH2 is printed on the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay board KB by silk printing at the boundary between the two terminals in the fourth row, and the fourth row from the bottom. The horizontal line KSH2 is printed on the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay board KB by silk printing at the boundary between the two terminals of the third row and the two terminals in the third row from the bottom, Two terminals in the third row from the bottom and the second row from the bottom The horizontal line KSH2 is printed on the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB by silk printing at the boundary between the two terminals in the row, and the two rows in the second row from the bottom, The horizontal line KSH2 is printed on the boundary between the two terminals in the first row in the first row from the bottom by silk printing on the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB. That is, since the horizontal line KSH2 is printed by silk printing on the resist on the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB, when viewed from the resist surface, the horizontal line KSH2 is a vertical wall like a mountain range. Are connected. Thereby, for example, if the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB is flowed to the solder bath, it is necessary that the solder flows over the resist and flows over a vertical wall such as a horizontal line KSH2. A vertical line like a mountain line of a horizontal line KSH2 at the boundary between the two terminals and land KTH2 in the sixth row from the bottom, and the two terminals and land KTH2 in the fifth row from the bottom. Since the force that separates the solder works as the solder tries to stay on the resist by the wall, the solder bridge can be suppressed at each terminal adjacent in the vertical direction. The horizontal line KSH2 at the boundary between the two terminals and land KTH2 in the fifth row from the bottom, and the two terminals and land KTH2 in the fourth row from the bottom, the fourth row from the bottom, The horizontal line KSH2 at the boundary between the two terminals and land KTH2 in the fourth row and the second terminal and land KTH2 in the third row from the bottom, and the second row in the third row from the bottom. The horizontal line KSH2 at the boundary between the two terminals and land KTH2 and the second terminal and land KTH2 in the second row from the bottom, and the two terminals and land KTH2 in the second row from the bottom And the horizontal line KSH2 at the boundary between the two terminals and land KTH2 in the first row from the bottom, and the second terminal and land KTH2 in the sixth row from the bottom, 5 steps Similar to the horizontal line KSH2 at the boundary between the two terminals in the fifth row and the land KTH2, the force by which the solder is separated when the solder tries to stay on the resist by the vertical wall like the mountain range of the horizontal line KSH2 By working, solder bridges can be suppressed at each terminal and land KTH2 adjacent in the vertical direction.

[Countermeasures 2 by silk printing]
Next, as a method for suppressing the occurrence of solder bridges, horizontal lines are printed at the boundaries of the respective stages by silk printing on the resist, and the lands and solder relief patterns of the terminals adjacent to the vertical lines in the left-right direction. A method of printing on each boundary (measure 2 by silk printing) will be described. The countermeasure 2 by the silk printing is the same as the above-described countermeasure 1 by the silk printing. Further, the vertical line is printed by the silk printing on the land of each terminal adjacent in the left-right direction and the boundary of the solder escape pattern adjacent in the left-right direction. Therefore, the explanation for the countermeasure 1 by silk printing is omitted.

  In the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN, in addition to the horizontal line KSH1 printed by silk printing shown in FIG. 74 (a), as shown in FIG. Among the six terminals PN and lands KTH1 in the first row and the six terminals PN and lands KTH1 in the second row from the bottom, the terminals PN and lands KTH1 adjacent in the left-right direction, A vertical line KSV1 is printed on the boundary between the solder escape pattern KNP1 adjacent in the left-right direction on the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB by silk printing. That is, since the vertical lines KSV1 are respectively printed by silk printing on the resist on the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the body frame side relay substrate KB, the vertical line KSV1 looks like a mountain range when viewed from the resist surface. It becomes the state where a long vertical wall is connected. As a result, when the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB is flowed to the solder bath, the solder can flow over the resist and flow along a vertical wall such as a vertical line KSV1. Solder that flows on a vertical wall like a mountain range called vertical line KSV1 tries to stay in the resist by flowing to the left of the vertical wall or the right side of the vertical wall with the vertical wall like a mountain range called vertical line KSV1 as a boundary. As a result, the solder bridge can be suppressed at the terminals PN and lands KTH1 adjacent in the left-right direction and the solder escape pattern KNP1 adjacent in the left-right direction.

  In each terminal of the DIP type small connector, in addition to the horizontal line KSH2 printed by silk printing shown in FIG. 74 (d), the first step from the bottom as shown in FIG. 74 (e). Solder adjacent to each terminal and land KTH2 adjacent in the left-right direction from the two terminals and land KTH2 in the first row to the two terminals and land KTH2 in the sixth row from the bottom to the sixth row. A vertical line KSV2 is printed on the boundary of the escape pattern KNP2 on the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB by silk printing. That is, since the vertical line KSV2 is printed by silk printing on the resist on the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB, when viewed from the resist surface, the vertical line KSV2 is like a mountain range. The vertical walls are in a continuous state. As a result, when the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB is flowed to the solder bath, the solder can flow over the resist and flow along a vertical wall such as a vertical line KSV2, Solder flowing on a vertical wall such as a vertical line KSV2 like a mountain range tries to stay in the resist by flowing to the left of the vertical wall or the right side of the vertical wall with the vertical wall like the vertical line KSV2 as a boundary. As a result, a solder bridge can be suppressed at each terminal and land KTH2 adjacent in the left-right direction and solder escape pattern KNP2 adjacent in the left-right direction.

[Measure 3 by silk printing]
Next, as a method that can suppress the occurrence of solder bridges, a method of encircling the land of each terminal and the solder relief pattern with a predetermined figure by silk printing on the resist (measure 3 by silk printing) explain.

  In the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN, as shown in FIG. 74 (c), the land KTH1 through which each terminal PN of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is inserted, and each solder relief pattern KNP1 Are surrounded by a rectangular shape that is long in the left-right direction by silk printing on the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB, and each land KTH1 and each solder escape pattern KNP1 in the region KSA1 surrounded by the rectangular shape Print to fill the area except. That is, each land KTH1 and each of the lands KTH1 and each of the lands KSA1 in which the lands KTH1 and the solder relief patterns KNP1 are enclosed in a rectangular shape by silk printing on the resist on the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB. Since the area excluding the solder escape pattern KNP1 is printed so as to be filled, when each land KTH1 and each solder escape pattern KNP1 is viewed from the surface of the silk-printed area KSA1, each land KTH2 and each solder The relief pattern KNP1 is a recessed area, and when viewed from the resist surface, the silk-printed area KSA1 is a slightly high plateau area. As a result, when the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB is flowed to the solder bath, the solder must flow over the resist and flow over a small high plateau called the silk-printed region KSA1. The amount of solder flowing on the printed area KSA1 can be suppressed, and the solder is placed on each land KTH1 and each solder relief pattern KNP1 that is a recessed area formed on a small high plateau called the silk printed area KSA1. When flowing, the force that separates the solder works by trying to stay over the small high plateau of the silk-printed area KSA1 from each land KTH1 and each solder escape pattern KNP1 that become the recessed area The terminals PN and lands KTH1 adjacent in the vertical and horizontal directions and the solder relief adjacent in the horizontal direction A turn KNP1, solder bridges in can be suppressed, respectively.

  In each terminal of the DIP type small connector, as shown in FIG. 74 (f), a land KTH2 through which each terminal of the DIP type small connector is inserted and each solder relief pattern KNP2 are connected to the main body frame side relay board KB. The back surface (solder surface) of KBy is surrounded by a rectangular shape that is long in the vertical direction by silk printing, and the region excluding each land KTH2 and each solder escape pattern KNP2 is filled in the region KSA2 surrounded by this rectangular shape. Print. In other words, each of the lands KTH2 and each of the lands KTH2 and each of the lands KSA2 in which the lands KTH2 and the solder relief patterns KNP2 are enclosed in a rectangular shape by silk printing on the resist on the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB. Since the area excluding the solder escape pattern KNP2 is printed so as to be filled, when each land KTH2 and each solder escape pattern KNP2 are viewed from the surface of the silk-printed area KSA2, each land KTH2 and each solder The relief pattern KNP2 becomes a recessed area, and when viewed from the resist surface, the silk-printed area KSA2 becomes a slightly high plateau area. As a result, when the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB is flowed to the solder bath, the solder must flow over the resist and flow over a small high plateau called the silk-printed region KSA2. The amount of solder flowing on the printed region KSA2 can be suppressed, and solder is formed on each land KTH2 and each solder relief pattern KNP2 that are recessed regions formed on a small high plateau called the silk printed region KSA2. When flowing, a force that separates the solder from the lands KTH2 and the solder escape patterns KNP2 that become the recessed areas by separating the solder on the small high plateau called the area KSA2 that is silk-printed works up, down, left and right. Each terminal and land KTH2 adjacent in the direction, and the solder escape pattern KNP2 adjacent in the left-right direction, It is possible to suppress the Oite solder bridge respectively.

  The connector with measures 1 to 3 by silk printing described above has a silk-printed portion that is extremely conspicuous compared to the connector to which measures 1 to 3 by silk printing are not applied. When an operation for visually confirming whether or not the occurrence has occurred is used as a mark where the operator should pay attention to the substrate, it is possible to quickly turn the line of sight.

[Modification]
In this embodiment, when the substrate is flowed into the solder bath, the above-described measures 1 to 3 by silk printing are performed to prevent the occurrence of solder bridges and prevent solder shorts. Measure 1 to Measure 3 can also be used as a mark indicating which connector is the connector that the worker directly solders to the board.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, when the substrate is poured into the solder bath, the above-described countermeasure 3 by silk printing is applied, and the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN has the rectangular shape shown in FIG. 74 (c). In each terminal of the enclosed area KSA1 and the DIP type small connector, the area KSA2 surrounded by the rectangular shape shown in FIG. Instead of the rectangular shape, solder short-circuit prevention may be performed by preventing the generation of a solder bridge by a region surrounded by another shape. FIG. 75 is a diagram (a) showing a modification of FIG. 74 (c) and a diagram (b) showing a modification of FIG. 74 (f). 75, the same components as those in FIG. 74 are denoted by the same reference numerals. In FIG. 75, an arrow indicated by a solid line indicates a direction in which the solder flows when the substrate flows into the solder bath, and an arrow indicated by a one-dot chain line indicates a direction in which the substrate flows in the solder bath.

  In the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN, as shown in FIG. 75A, the land KTH1 through which each terminal PN of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is inserted, and each solder relief pattern KNP1 Each of the lands KTH1 and each solder in the region KSA1 ′ surrounded by this shape is surrounded by silk printing on the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB in a shape that is approximately three times larger than the respective shapes of Printing is performed so that the area excluding the escape pattern KNP1 is filled. Further, when viewed from the resist surface, the silk-printed area KSA1 'is a small plateau area. As a result, when the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB is flowed to the solder bath, the solder needs to flow over the resist and flow over a small high plateau called the silk-printed region KSA1 ′. The amount of solder flowing on the silk-printed area KSA1 ′ can be suppressed, and the lands KTH1 and the solder relief patterns KNP1 that are recessed areas formed on the small plateau called the silk-printed area KSA1 ′ When the solder flows, the solder is separated from the land KTH1 and the solder escape pattern KNP1 which are recessed areas by trying to stay on the small plateau of the silk-printed area KSA1 'without being able to get over. Due to the force, it is adjacent to each terminal PN and land KTH1 adjacent in the vertical and horizontal directions in the horizontal direction. A field relief pattern KNP1, solder bridges in can be suppressed, respectively.

  Further, in each terminal of the DIP type small connector, as shown in FIG. 75 (b), from the respective shapes of the land KTH2 through which each terminal of the DIP type small connector is inserted and each solder relief pattern KNP2. The back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay board KB is surrounded by silk printing in a shape that is about three times larger, and each land KTH2 and each solder relief pattern KNP2 are excluded from the area KSA2 'surrounded by this shape Print to fill the area. Further, when viewed from the resist surface, the silk-printed area KSA2 'is a small and high plateau area. As a result, when the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB is flowed to the solder bath, it is necessary that the solder flows over the resist and flows over a small high plateau called the silk-printed region KSA2 ′. The amount of solder flowing on the silk-printed area KSA2 ′ can be suppressed, and the lands KTH2 and the solder escape patterns KNP2 that are recessed areas formed on a small high plateau called the silk-printed area KSA2 ′ When the solder flows in the solder, the force that separates the solder works as the solder tries to stay on the small high plateau called the silk-printed area KSA2 'from each land KTH2 and each solder escape pattern KNP2 that become the recessed areas.

By the way, like the gaming machine described in this document, although various terminals are poured into the solder bath and the terminals of the components are soldered, a solder bridge is formed at the adjacent terminals, and a short circuit due to solder occurs. was there.

[Peeling prevention by over resist]
Next, prevention of peeling by over resist will be described with reference to FIGS. Here, the over resist applied to each terminal PN of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN will be described first, and the over resist applied to the housing fixing land of the surface mount type connector will be described. FIG. 77 is a schematic diagram (a) of an over resist applied to each terminal of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type), and is a schematic diagram (b) of a cross section taken along line XX in (a). FIG. 78 is a schematic diagram (a) of the copper foil surface on the surface (mounting surface) side of the substrate on which the surface mount type connector is mounted, and is a schematic diagram (b) of the surface (mounting surface) of the substrate. FIG. 79 is a continuation of FIG. 78, and is an enlarged view of part A of FIG. 78 (b), and is a schematic diagram (c) of an over resist applied to a housing fixing land of a surface mount type connector. It is the schematic (d) of the cross section of the YY line in c). In FIGS. 77 to 79, various wiring patterns and substrate ground (GND) (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “solid ground”) may be omitted from the viewability of the drawings.

[Over resist applied to each terminal of the body frame side drawer connector (concave type)]
The over resist applied to each terminal PN of the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN will be described. As shown in FIGS. 77 (a) and 77 (b), a through hole KTH1 having a land (hereinafter simply referred to as “land”). KTH1 ”may be described)), through-holes are formed in the base material KBo of the main body frame side relay substrate KB, the surface (mounting surface) of the main body frame side relay substrate KB, the copper foil surface of KBx, A land having an outer diameter KTHD1 is formed by removing the copper foil from the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB and the copper foil surface of KBy. In the present embodiment, the outer diameter of the land formed on the surface (mounting surface) KBx of the main body frame side relay substrate KB and the outer diameter of the land formed on the rear surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB. The outer diameter is KTHD1 and has the same size.

  The surface (mounting surface) side of the main body frame side relay substrate KB is coated with a resist solution on the copper foil surface of the KBx to form a surface (mounting surface) side resist layer KBxr. In a region corresponding to the land KTH1 in the resist layer KBxr, a surface (mounting surface) side resist opening KBxra having an opening diameter KBxrD1 smaller than the outer diameter KTHD1 of the land KTH1 is formed. In addition, a resist solution is applied on the copper foil surface of the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB to form a back surface (solder surface) side resist layer KByr, but the back surface (solder surface). In the region corresponding to the land KTH1 in the side resist layer KByr, a back surface (solder surface) side resist opening KByra having an opening diameter KByrD1 smaller than the outer diameter KTHD1 of the land KTH1 is formed.

  In the present embodiment, the opening diameter KBxrD1 of the front surface (mounting surface) side resist opening KBxra and the opening diameter KByrD1 of the back surface (solder surface) side resist opening KByra have the same size. A substrate ground (GND) (that is, a solid ground) formed on the front surface (mounting surface) KBx of the main body frame side relay substrate KB and a substrate ground formed on the rear surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB. (GND) (that is, a solid ground) is electrically connected through a through hole (not shown) to form the same ground (GND).

  As described above, in the surface (mounting surface) KBx of the main body frame side relay substrate KBx, the region corresponding to the land KTH1 in the surface (mounting surface) side resist layer KBxr has an opening diameter KBxrD1 smaller than the outer diameter KTHD1 of the land KTH1. Since the surface (mounting surface) side resist opening KBxra having a surface is formed, an over resist in which the outer peripheral portion of the land KTH1 is covered with the resist from the outer periphery of the outer diameter KTHD1 of the land KTH1 toward the center of the land KTH1. Is given. As a result, since the resist can be applied to the entire outer peripheral portion of the land KTH1 on the surface (mounting surface) KBx of the main body frame side relay board KB, a high peeling strength is applied to the load on the land KTH1 from multiple directions. On the other hand, it can be made uniform.

  Further, in the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB, the region corresponding to the land KTH1 in the back surface (solder surface) side resist layer KByr has an opening diameter KByrD1 smaller than the outer diameter KTHD1 of the land KTH1. Since the back surface (solder surface) side resist opening KByra is formed, over resist is applied so that the outer peripheral portion of the land KTH1 is covered with the resist from the outer periphery of the outer diameter KTHD1 of the land KTH1 toward the center of the land KTH1. Has been. As a result, since the entire outer peripheral portion of the land KTH1 can be covered with the resist on the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB, a high peeling strength can be applied to the load from multiple directions on the land KTH1. On the other hand, it can be made uniform.

  Although the front and back surfaces of the base material KBo of the main body frame side relay substrate KB are formed by bonding the copper foil surface, the land KTH1 formed on the copper foil surface as compared with the bonding between the base material KBo and the copper foil surface. Bonding with solder is stronger.

  By the way, when the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is fixed to the main body frame side relay board KB, as described above, rivets are used. This is because, by using the drawer connector, it is possible to automatically connect the main body frame 4 and the game board 5 simply by attaching the game board 5 to the main body frame 4, but the game board 5 is used as the main body. When attaching to the frame 4, a large force may be applied from the game board side drawer connector (convex type) of the game board 5 to the box-shaped main body DCNa of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN. This is for preventing the soldered surface of the pin-type terminals PN in the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN from being peeled off on the back surface (solder surface) of the main body frame side relay board KB.

  However, since an external force is applied to the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN by using the drawer connector, the surface (mounting surface) of the main body frame side relay board KB (mounting surface) KBx copper foil surface and the main body Land KTH1 formed on the copper foil surface of the back surface (solder surface) KBx of the frame side relay substrate KB is peeled off from the base material KBo, and various wiring patterns formed on the copper foil surface are peeled off from the base material KBo together with the land KTH1. There is a case to do.

  Therefore, in this embodiment, the land KTH1 is further over-resisted with copper on the front surface (mounting surface) KBx of the main body frame side relay substrate KB and the rear surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB. By increasing the peel strength so that the copper foil formed on the foil surface does not peel from the base material KBo, the drawer connector is used to change the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN by attaching or removing the game board 5. Even if an external force is applied, the land KTH1 formed on the copper foil surface of the front surface (mounting surface) KBx of the main body frame side relay substrate KB and the rear surface (solder surface) KBx of the main body frame side relay substrate KB is the base material. It is possible to reliably prevent peeling from the KBo and peeling of various wiring patterns formed on the copper foil surface from the base material KBo together with the land KTH1. There.

  In addition, the outer diameter KTHD1 of the land KTH1 to which the over resist is applied is added with an area where each terminal PN of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is inserted into the land KTH1 and soldered. It is larger than the outer diameter of the land that is not over-resisted. This is because when the terminal PN of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is soldered to the land KTH1 to which over resist is applied, the joint area is the terminal PN of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN. This is because the bonding area is equal to or larger than the bonding area when soldered to a land not over-resisted. Thereby, the bonding strength to the land KTH1 to which the over resist is applied can be made equal to or higher than the bonding strength to the land to which the over resist is not applied.

  Also, even if the outer diameter of the land through which the terminal is inserted is the same depending on the presence or absence of the over resist, if the over resist is not applied, the land having a normal size outer diameter and the over resist are applied. It is necessary to prepare a land having an outer diameter larger than the outer diameter of the normal size at the board design stage. There is a problem that bonding between the lands and the lands may be insufficient and a solder failure may occur.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, regardless of the presence or absence of overresist, a substrate (for example, main body frame side relay substrate KB) on which at least one land is subjected to overresist is applied to all lands. The same land as the land to which the over resist is applied is arranged as a land to which the over resist is not applied. As a result, the bonding between the terminal and the land is sufficient, and the occurrence of solder failure can be reliably prevented.

  It should be noted that the game board side relay board (not shown) on which the game board side drawer connector (convex type) of the game board 5 guided by the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is also mounted. In contrast, the above-described over resist is applied. In addition to the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN, another main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN 'is not shown separately from the main body frame side relay board KB. The above-described over resist is applied to the land also on the unillustrated main body frame side relay substrate KB ′ (not shown). Further, another game board side drawer connector (convex type) guided by a main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN ′ (not shown) of the main body frame 4 (this other game board drawer connector (convex type) A side board connector (concave type) other game board side relay board (not shown) on which a game board side drawer connector (convex type) of the game board 5 electrically connected to the DCN is mounted (this is not shown) The other game board side relay board is a game board side relay (not shown) on which the game board side drawer connector (convex type) of the game board 5 guided by the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is mounted. Also, the above-described over resist is applied to the land.

  In the present embodiment, the outer diameter of the land formed on the surface (mounting surface) KBx of the main body frame side relay substrate KB and the outer diameter of the land formed on the rear surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB. The outer diameter KTHD1 is the same size, but compared to the outer diameter of the land formed on the copper foil surface of the front surface (mounting surface) KBx of the main body frame side relay substrate KB, the main body frame side relay substrate KB. The outer diameter of the land formed on the copper foil surface of the back surface (solder surface) KBy may be increased or decreased. Further, in the present embodiment, the opening diameter KBxrD1 of the front surface (mounting surface) side resist opening KBxra and the opening diameter KByrD1 of the back surface (solder surface) side resist opening KByra are the same size. The opening diameter KByrD1 of the back surface (solder surface) side resist opening KByra may be larger or smaller than the opening diameter KBxrD1 of the front surface side resist opening KBxra.

[Modification]
In this embodiment, the above-described over resist is applied to the land of the main body frame side relay board KB on which the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN to which an external force is applied is mounted. The over-registration described above may be applied to the land of the setting change board 1311 on which the switch 1311a is mounted, or for fixing the setting key switch 1311a of the setting change board 1311 on which the setting key switch 1311a is mounted. The above-described over-resist may be applied to the lands (the above-described long through holes SLH1, SLH2), or another board (for example, DIP) on which a DIP-type connector into which various wirings and harnesses are inserted and removed is mounted. When a type of connector is mounted, the main control board 1310 and the payout control board 633 In addition to these substrates, the above-described over resist may be applied to the lands of the peripheral control board 1510, the power supply board 630, the interface board 635, various decorative boards, various relay boards, various driving boards, and the like. However, when a substrate is provided on a movable body that is operated by driving an electric drive source, a load due to wiring or a harness that is electrically connected to the movable body substrate in accordance with the operation of the movable body is applied to the movable body substrate. When applied, the over-resist described above may be applied to the land of the movable substrate on which the DIP-type connector is mounted, or various switches such as various switches having a pressing operation unit. The above-mentioned over the land having lead terminals which are mounted on the front surface (mounting surface) of the substrate and soldered on the back surface (solder surface). It may be provided with a dyst, or when some external force is applied to the board, against the land of the board on which lead type or DIP type electronic parts such as resistors, capacitors, diodes, transistors, ICs are mounted The over-resist described above may be applied.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, regardless of the presence or absence of the over resist, a substrate (for example, the main body frame side relay substrate KB) having at least one land on which the over resist is present is applied to all lands. The land that is the same as the land to which the over resist is applied is disposed as a land that is not over resist. However, when the over resist is not applied, a land having an outer diameter of a normal size (that is, the over resist is applied). A land having a normal outer diameter smaller than the outer diameter KTHD1 of the land KTH1 may be disposed. That is, a land to which over resist is applied may be mixed with a land having an outer diameter of a normal size when over resist is not applied. In this case, even if the outer diameter of the land through which the terminal is inserted is the same depending on the presence or absence of the over resist, if the over resist is not applied, the land having the normal outer diameter and the over resist are applied. Requires a land having an outer diameter larger than that of a normal size at the substrate design stage.

[Over-registration applied to the housing fixing land of the surface mount type connector]
The over resist applied to the case fixing pad KSPF of the surface mount type connector KCN mounted on the substrate KC will be described with reference to FIGS. 78 (a), (b) and FIGS. 79 (c), (d). As described above, each terminal (for example, having six terminals) of the surface mount type connector KCN is soldered to a pad KSP having an elongated rectangular shape in the vertical direction, various wiring patterns connected to each pad KSP, A rectangle that is long in the vertical direction and fixed by soldering and fixing both sides (metal housing fixing portions provided on the left and right sides) of the surface mount type connector KCN to the surface (mounting surface) of the substrate KC. The housing fixing pad KSPF having a shape is formed by removing the copper foil on the copper foil surface KCxp of the surface (mounting surface) KCx of the substrate KC, and thereby each pad KSP and each pad. Various wiring pattern connected with the SP, the casing fastener pad KSPF are formed. The housing of the surface mount type connector KCN is formed of a non-conductive resin. Metal casing fixing portions are provided on both sides (left side and right side) of the casing of the surface mount type connector KCN.

  The surrounding KCxa of each wiring pattern connected to each pad KSP and each pad KSP is formed by removing the copper foil from the copper foil surface KCxp of the surface (mounting surface) KCx of the substrate KC (that is, a solid ground). ) Is insulated without being electrically connected. On the other hand, the four corners of each housing fixing pad KSPF out of the periphery of each housing fixing pad KSPF are fixed to each housing by removing the copper foil on the copper foil surface KCxp of the surface (mounting surface) KCx of the substrate KC. A thermal pattern KCxb is provided in which the pad KSPF is electrically connected to the substrate ground (GND) (that is, a solid ground) via a cross-shaped pattern. With this thermal pattern KCxb, both sides of the case of the surface mount type connector KCN (metal case fixing portions provided on the left side and the right side) are connected to the case fixing pads on the surface (mounting surface) KCx of the substrate KC. It is possible to prevent the heat that melts the solder when soldering to the KSPF from being taken away from the outer periphery of each housing fixing pad KSPF. It should be noted that both sides (metal housing fixing portions provided on the left and right sides) of the housing of the surface mount type connector KCN are connected to the housing fixing pads KSPF on the surface (mounting surface) KCx of the substrate KC. As a result, the surface mount type connector KCN can be more firmly fixed to the substrate KC than when the terminals of the surface mount type connector KCN are simply soldered to the substrate KC. Both sides of the housing of the surface mount type connector KCN (metal housing fixing portions provided on the left side and the right side) are electrically connected to the substrate ground (GND) of the substrate KC for surface mounting. It is also possible to enhance the shielding effect for signals connected to the terminals of the type connector KCN.

  Although a resist solution is applied on the copper foil surface KCxp of the surface (mounting surface) KCx of the substrate KC to form a surface (mounting surface) side resist layer KCxr, the surface (mounting surface) side resist layer KCxr Of these, in the region corresponding to each pad KSP, a pad surface (mounting surface side) side resist opening having the same shape as each pad KSP is formed, and the region corresponding to each housing fixing pad KSPF The housing fixing pad front surface (mounting surface) side resist opening KCxra having an opening rectangular shape smaller than the rectangular shape of each housing fixing pad KSPF is formed. Further, a resist solution is applied on the back surface (solder surface) KCy of the substrate KC to form a back surface (solder surface) side resist layer KCyr.

  A substrate ground (GND) (that is, a solid ground) formed on the surface (mounting surface) KCx of the substrate KC and a substrate ground (GND) (that is, a solid ground) formed on the back surface (solder surface) KCy of the substrate KC. ) Are electrically connected through a through hole (not shown) to form the same ground (GND).

  As described above, in the surface (mounting surface) KCx of the substrate KC, in the surface (mounting surface) side resist layer KCxr, the region corresponding to the housing fixing pad KSPF has an opening rectangle smaller than the rectangular shape of the housing fixing pad KSPF. Since the front surface (mounting surface) side resist opening KCxra for the housing fixing pad having a shape is formed, the housing fixing pad is directed from the outer periphery of the rectangular shape of the housing fixing pad KSPF toward the inside of the housing fixing pad KSPF. An over resist is applied so that the outer peripheral portion of the KSPF is covered with the resist. As a result, the entire outer peripheral portion of each housing fixing pad KSPF is covered with the resist on the surface (mounting surface) KCx of the substrate KC, so that a high peel strength can be obtained in multiple directions with respect to each housing fixing pad KSPF. Can be uniform with respect to the load.

  Although the front surface and the back surface of the base material KCo of the substrate KC are formed by bonding the copper foil surface, each pad KSP or each housing formed on the copper foil surface is compared with the bonding between the base material KCo and the copper foil surface. Bonding of body fixing pad KSPF and solder is stronger.

  By the way, examples of the substrate KC on which the surface mount type connector KCN is mounted include substrates such as the main control substrate 1310 and the payout control substrate 633 in this embodiment. Various wirings and harnesses connected to various connectors provided on boards such as the main control board 1310 and the payout control board 633 are used when removing dust and cigarette dust accumulated on the pachinko machine 1 and when performing various inspections. After being removed by a staff member such as a game hall clerk, they are reconnected after work. However, the staff of game halls or the like who perform such work are often unfamiliar with the handling of the board, when removing various wirings and harnesses from the connector, or when connecting various wirings and harnesses to the connector , Sometimes by power (ie with excessive force).

  Then, among the plurality of connectors provided on the board KC such as the main control board 1310 and the payout control board 633, there are DIP type connectors and surface mount type connectors. For example, the surface mount type connector KCN described above. When a staff member such as a game hall clerk performs the above-described work, the force accompanying the insertion / extraction of the harness to / from the surface mount type connector KCN is applied to the surface mount type connector KCN. Because of this large force, both sides of the housing of the surface mount type connector KCN (metal housing fixing portions provided on the left and right sides) are the copper foil of the surface (mounting surface) KCx of the substrate KC. Each case fixing pad KSPF formed on the surface KCxp is peeled off from the base material KCo, and accordingly, the surface (mounting surface) KC of the substrate KC. Peeled off the pad KSP from substrate KCo formed of a copper foil surface KCxp, there are cases where various wiring patterns formed on copper foil surface KCxp is peeled off from the substrate KCo with each pad KSP.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, on the surface (mounting surface) KCx of the substrate KC, the copper foil formed on the copper foil surface KCxp by applying an over resist to the housing fixing pad KSPF does not peel from the base material KCo. By increasing the peel strength, even when force is applied to the surface mount type connector KCN when the harness is inserted into or removed from the surface mount type connector KCN, it is formed on the copper foil surface KCxp of the surface (mounting surface) KCx of the substrate KC The case fixing pad KSPF to be formed does not peel from the base material KCo, and accordingly, each pad KSP formed on the copper foil surface KCxp of the surface (mounting surface) KCx of the substrate KC peels from the base material KCo, Various wiring patterns formed on the copper foil surface KCxp can be reliably prevented from being peeled off from the base material KCo together with the pads KSP. Going on.

[Modification]
In the present embodiment, the over-resist described above is applied to the housing fixing pad KSPF of the substrate KC on which the surface mount type connector KCN to which an external force is applied is mounted. When a surface mount type connector into which various wirings and harnesses are inserted and removed is mounted in addition to the control board 633 and the like, the peripheral control board 1510, the power supply board 630, the interface board 635, various decorative boards, and various relays The above-described over-resist may be applied to the case fixing pad of the substrate such as the substrate or various drive substrates, or the substrate is provided on a movable body that is operated by driving of an electric drive source.

The structure is completely different from CN10. Each of these connectors CN1 to CN10 is a socket, and the socket and the plug are fitted by inserting and pushing the plug of the corresponding connector in the vertical direction with respect to the peripheral control board 1510 and the liquid crystal output board 1530. When the sockets of the connectors CN1 to CN10 are fitted, there is no amount of movement in the vertical direction when the peripheral control board 1510 and the liquid crystal output board 1530 are viewed from the front.

  Special connectors SCN1 and SCN2 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 are plugs, respectively, and the special connector SCN3 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1520x of the peripheral data ROM board 1520 and the surface of the liquid crystal output board 1530 (Mounting surface) Each of the special connectors SCN4 provided on the 1530x is a socket.

  By inserting and pushing the socket of the special connector SCN3 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1520x of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 into the plug of the special connector SCN1 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control substrate 1510, the socket and the plug Will fit. When the socket of the special connector SCN3 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1520x of the peripheral data ROM board 1520 is fitted, the socket is viewed in the front-rear direction (pachinko) when the peripheral data ROM board 1520 (peripheral control board 1510) is viewed from the front. It has a structure in which a floating mechanism is provided that can absorb an error in the front-rear direction that occurs when pushing in by moving a predetermined distance range toward the back of the machine 1 (in the direction of the back and front). Note that the socket of the special connector SCN3 provided on the front surface (mounting surface) 1520x of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 is a state in which the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 is attached and fixed at a predetermined position on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501. The front surface (upper surface) of the socket of the special connector SCN3 is the cover flat plate of the cover body 1501 even if the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 (peripheral control substrate 1510) is moved to the maximum within the above-mentioned predetermined distance range. A gap is formed between the front surface (top surface) of the socket of the special connector SCN3 and the back surface of the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501 so as not to contact the back surface of the 1501a.

  By inserting and pushing the socket of the special connector SCN4 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1530x of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 into the plug of the special connector SCN2 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control substrate 1510, the socket and the plug are connected. Mating. When the socket of the special connector SCN4 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1530x of the liquid crystal output board 1530 is fitted, the socket is viewed in the front-rear direction (pachinko machine 1) when the liquid crystal output board 1530 (peripheral control board 1510) is viewed from the front. It is a structure provided with a floating mechanism that can absorb an error in the front-rear direction that occurs when it is pushed in by moving a predetermined distance range in the direction of the back surface and the front surface. The socket of the special connector SCN4 provided on the front surface (mounting surface) 1530x of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is in a state where the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is attached and fixed at a predetermined position on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501. Even when the liquid crystal output board 1530 (peripheral control board 1510) is moved as much as possible within the above-mentioned predetermined distance range when viewed from the front, the front (upper surface) of the socket of the special connector SCN4 is the back of the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501. A gap is formed between the front surface (upper surface) of the socket of the special connector SCN4 and the rear surface of the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501 so as not to contact the connector.

  Here, the reason why the special connector SCN3 is adopted as the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and the special connector SCN4 is adopted as the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 will be briefly described. The peripheral data ROM board 1520 is provided with a peripheral data ROM 1520a capable of storing various control information (peripheral data) that are controlled by the peripheral control board 1510. Various control information (peripheral data) includes image data such as background images, character images, and design images for rendering various effect images on the effect display device 1600, and various decorative boards provided in the door frame 3 and the game board 5. Light emission data that defines light emission modes (lighting, gradation, blinking, extinguishing, etc.) of a plurality of LEDs mounted on the door, sound data such as music, voice, warning sound, notification sound, door frame 3 and game board 5 The drive data etc. for drive-controlling the various movable production bodies with which it is provided can be mentioned.

  The peripheral data ROM 1520a is a NAND flash (nonvolatile) memory, is cheaper than a NOR flash (nonvolatile) memory, has a large capacity, and can write various data at high speed. The peripheral data ROM 1520a has a low operating voltage, can suppress power consumption, and can realize a high transfer rate by communication conforming to the SATA standard.

  As described above, by adopting the NAND flash (nonvolatile) memory as the peripheral data ROM 1520a, the cost can be reduced and the power consumption can be suppressed, and various stored data can be read out at a high transfer rate. it can. However, although the peripheral data ROM 1520a can suppress power consumption due to its low operating voltage, it is susceptible to noise due to its low operating voltage. In addition, various data stored in the peripheral data ROM 1520a need to be accurately and reliably transmitted from the peripheral data ROM board 1520 to the peripheral control board 1510. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the configuration in which the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and the peripheral control substrate 1510 are electrically connected via wiring (harness) is not adopted, and the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 are not connected. By adopting a configuration in which the control board 1510 is electrically connected by an inter-board connector, the influence of noise entering the inter-board transmission path is reduced.

  Although the procedure for attaching various boards in the internal space of the cover body 1501 will be described later, the peripheral data ROM board 1520 is connected to the socket of the special connector SCN3 provided on its surface (mounting face) 1520x on the surface of the peripheral control board 1510 ( Since it is necessary to fix the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 together with the peripheral control substrate 1510 to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a after being inserted into the plug of the special connector SCN1 provided on the mounting surface) 1510x and pushed in, By adopting the socket of the special connector SCN3 provided with the floating mechanism described above, the peripheral control board 1510 and the peripheral data ROM board 1520 are absorbed in the front-rear direction error that occurs when the cover data is fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. So, plug and socket To prevent damage to the connection terminals formed in a plurality of numbers in a preparative, can a transmission path between the substrate and the peripheral control board 1510 and the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 can be reliably formed.

  Further, as described above, since the cover body 1501 is made of a conductive resin containing carbon in polycarbonate, the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501 may be warped after molding although it is within the design dimension distance tolerance. is there. Even in such a case, by using the socket of the special connector SCN3 provided with the above-described floating mechanism, the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 together with the peripheral control substrate 1510 is fixed to the back side of the warped cover flat plate 1501a. By absorbing the error in the front-rear direction that occurs during the operation, the connection terminals formed in the plug and the socket are prevented from being damaged, and the transmission path between the peripheral control board 1510 and the peripheral data ROM board 1520 is established. It can be reliably formed.

  The liquid crystal output board 1530 outputs the drawing data of the image drawn on the effect display device 1600 transmitted from the peripheral control board 1510 from the connector CN10, so that the game display progresses to the effect display device 1600 (for example, for the player). An image that tells you that an advantageous big hit gaming state will occur compared to the normal state, an image that tells you that no big hit gaming state will occur, and a state where a big hit gaming state will occur compared to the normal state, although no big hit gaming state will occur This is an important board for drawing images (such as an image indicating that the player is approaching) and demonstrations (demonstration effects performed while waiting for a player) as images. Therefore, it is necessary to accurately and reliably transmit drawing data of an image drawn on the effect display device 1600 from the peripheral control board 1510 to the liquid crystal output board 1530. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the liquid crystal output board 1530 and the peripheral control board are not used without adopting a configuration in which the liquid crystal output board 1530 and the peripheral control board 1510 are electrically connected via wiring (harness). By adopting a configuration in which 1510 is electrically connected to the inter-board connector, the influence of noise entering the inter-board transmission path is reduced.

  The procedure for attaching various boards in the internal space of the cover body 1501 will be described later. The liquid crystal output board 1530 has a socket for the special connector SCN4 provided on its surface (mounting surface) 1530x and the surface (mounting) of the peripheral control board 1510. Since the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 together with the peripheral control substrate 1510 need to be fixed to the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a after being inserted into the plug of the special connector SCN2 provided on the surface 1515x By adopting the socket of the special connector SCN4 provided with the above floating mechanism, the peripheral control board 1510 and the liquid crystal output board 1530 can be absorbed in the front-rear direction when the liquid crystal output board 1530 is fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. With plug and socket To prevent breakage of the connection terminals the number formed can a transmission path between the substrate and the peripheral control board 1510 and the liquid crystal driving substrate 1530 can be reliably formed.

  Further, as described above, since the cover body 1501 is made of a conductive resin containing carbon in polycarbonate, the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501 may be warped after molding although it is within the design dimension distance tolerance. is there. Even in such a case, by adopting the socket of the special connector SCN4 provided with the above-described floating mechanism, the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 together with the peripheral control substrate 1510 is fixed to the back side of the warped cover flat plate 1501a. By absorbing the error in the front-rear direction that occurs at the time, a plurality of connection terminals formed in the plug and the socket are prevented from being damaged, and the transmission path between the peripheral control board 1510 and the liquid crystal output board 1530 is reliably established. Can be formed.

  When the peripheral control board 1510, the peripheral data ROM board 1520, and the liquid crystal output board 1530 are fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a, as described above, the back side of the peripheral control board 1510 and the peripheral data ROM board 1520 Since the back surface and the back surface of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are arranged on the same plane, the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are arranged on the peripheral control substrate 1510 with respect to the front surface. Since the distance dimension in the front-rear direction (that is, the depth direction) of the peripheral control unit 1500 can be reduced as compared with the case where the three-dimensional arrangement is performed, for example, a large movable effect unit (movable effect body is operated on the game board 5). Electric drive source and drive mechanism that can be used, and various sensors for detecting the origin position and operating position) It can contribute to ensuring the order in the depth direction of the distance dimension.

[Assembly method of peripheral control unit]
Here, a method for assembling the peripheral control unit 1500 will be described. First, the socket of the special connector SCN3 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1520x of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 is inserted and pushed into the plug of the special connector SCN1 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control substrate 1510. Subsequently, the socket of the special connector SCN4 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1530x of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is inserted and pushed into the plug of the special connector SCN2 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control substrate 1510.

  Subsequently, in order to attach the peripheral control board 1510, the peripheral data ROM board 1520, and the liquid crystal output board 1530 to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a, the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 and the surface (surface of the peripheral data ROM board 1520) (Mounting surface) 1520x and the surface (mounting surface) 1530x of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are directed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a, and through holes 1520r1 and 1520r3 formed in the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 are provided on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. Inserted into the formed mounting boss protrusions 1501ai1 and 1501ai2, and inserted through holes 1530r2 and 1530r4 formed in the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 into mounting boss protrusions 1501an1 and 1501an2 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. That. Accordingly, the through holes 1510r1 to 1510r4 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 have an arrangement corresponding to the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a, and the through holes formed in the peripheral data ROM board 1520 are formed. The holes 1520r2 and 1520r4 are arranged corresponding to the mounting boss holes 1501ah1 and 1501ah2 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a, and the through holes 1530r1 and 1530r3 formed in the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. This is an arrangement corresponding to the mounting boss holes 1501am1 and 1501am2.

  Subsequently, a metal pan screw (not shown) is inserted into the through holes 1520r2 and 1520r4 formed in the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and screwed toward the mounting boss holes 1501ah1 and 1501ah2 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. The peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 is fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a, and a metal pan screw (not shown) is inserted into the through holes 1530r1 and 1530r3 formed in the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 to form on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. The liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a by screwing it toward the mounting boss holes 1501am1 and 1501am2.

  Subsequently, the through holes 1510r1 to 1510r4 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 are arranged so as to match the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. The peripheral control board 1510 is fixed to the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a by inserting a steel pan screw and screwing it toward the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4. Thus, of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, the liquid crystal output substrate 1530, and the peripheral control substrate 1510, the peripheral control substrate 1510 is finally fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a.

  The peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 is inserted into mounting boss protrusions 1501ai1 and 1501ai2 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a, thereby restraining movement in the vertical and horizontal directions, and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is connected to the cover flat plate 1501a. While the movement in the vertical and horizontal directions is restrained by being inserted into the mounting boss protrusions 1501an1 and 1501an2 formed on the back side, the peripheral control board 1510 has a mounting boss for restraining the vertical and horizontal directions. The protrusion is not formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. This is because the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a to restrict the vertical and horizontal directions, and the dimensional error due to such restriction is applied to the peripheral control substrate 1510. Dimensional dimensions provided to the through holes 1510r1 to 1510r4 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 and the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a when fixed to the back side of the 1501a. This is because it can be absorbed with a sufficient margin.

  Subsequently, in a state where the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, the liquid crystal output substrate 1530, and the peripheral control substrate 1510 are fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a, the plate-shaped guide portions 1501ca and 1501cb formed on the cover body 1501 are The base body 1502 is inserted into the guide receiving portions 1502caa and 1502cab formed on the engaging portion 1502ca of the base body 1502, and the L-shaped flange portions 1501cca and 1501cda of the hinge hanging portions 1501cc and 1501cd formed on the cover body 1501 are attached to the base body. Inserted into the U-shaped bag-shaped bag portions 1502cae and 1502caf of the hinge receiving portions 1502cac and 1502cad formed in the engaging portion 1502ca of 1502.

  Subsequently, the L-shaped flange portions 1501cca and 1501cda of the hinge hook portions 1501cc and 1501cd formed on the cover body 1501 are in contact with the U-shaped bag portions 1502cae and 1502caf of the hinge receiving portions 1502cac and 1502cad. In the state where the base body 1502 is wrapped around so as to cover the opening side of the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502 is directly covered on the cover body 1501, a metal seal (not shown) is formed on the cover side sealing portion 1501ea formed on the cover body 1501. A metal one-way screw with an anchor rivet inserted is inserted and screwed toward a base-side sealing portion 1502ea formed on the base body 1502. When the metal one-way screw is screwed in, the tip surface of the metal anchor rivet spreads outward at the base-side sealing portion 1502ea, thereby forming the cover-side sealing portion 1501ea formed on the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502. The base side sealing portion 1502ea to be sealed is in a sealed state.

  In such a sealed state, the cover side walls 1501b to 1501e of the cover body 1501 are fitted and inscribed (surface contact) inside the base side walls 1502b to 1502e of the base body 1502, and the base body 1502 is in contact. The front surfaces of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 formed in the contact state are in contact with the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board 1510. Thereby, since the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502 are made of conductive resin containing carbon in polycarbonate as described above, the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502 become conductive. In order to release such a sealed state, the cover side sealing portion 1501ea formed on the cover body 1501 has to be destroyed with a tool. Therefore, by observing the opening and closing traces, it is possible to detect unauthorized opening and closing of the peripheral control board box 1505 constituted by the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502, and deterring power against illegal actions on the peripheral control board box 1505. Has been increased.

  Subsequently, the air cooling fan FAN is pushed into the FAN mounting recess 1501aa formed on the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501, and a plurality of wires from the air cooling fan FAN are drawn from the wiring lead recess 1501ab formed on the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501. From the front of the cover flat plate 1501a to the rear, respectively, a lead screw with a metal seat (not shown) having a shape in which a pan head and a flat washer are integrated is screwed into the drawer and mounting holes 1501aac1 and aac2.

  Subsequently, in order to connect a plurality of wirings (harnesses) to the effect display device 1600 to the connector CN10 of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 via the wiring lead-out openings 1501ae formed in the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501. The connector is inserted and attached, and the wiring cover body 1503 is fitted into the mounting recess 1501af formed in the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501. By inserting metal pan screws (not shown) into through holes 1503b1 and 1503b2 formed in the wiring cover body 1503 and screwing them into the mounting holes 1501afb1 and 1501afb2 from the front to the rear of the wiring cover body 1503, respectively. 1503 is fixed to the mounting recess 1501af. As a result, the plurality of wirings are covered with the wiring cover body 1503 and cannot be touched.

  When the peripheral control unit 1500 assembled in this way is attached to the game panel 1100 provided in the game board 5, the peripheral control unit 1500 is viewed from the front, and the left side of the peripheral control unit 1500 (the base body 1502 of the peripheral control unit 1500). The engagement part 1502ca side formed on the base panel 1502 of the peripheral control unit 1500 is inserted into a mounting groove (not shown) provided in the gaming panel 1100, and a metal pan screw (not shown) is formed in the through holes 1502eb1 and 1502eb2 formed in the base body 1502 of the peripheral control unit 1500. Is fixed by being screwed into a mounting hole (not shown) provided in the game panel 1100.

  In the assembly method described above, in the procedure for attaching various substrates in the internal space of the cover body 1501, for example, first, the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 is placed at the predetermined position described above on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a of the peripheral control substrate 1510. (The peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 is disposed on the upper right side of the cover body 1501 when the cover body 1501 is viewed from the back.) And the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is fixed to the back surface of the cover flat plate 1501a of the peripheral control board 1510. The surface of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 after being fixed at the above-mentioned predetermined position on the side (the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is arranged on the lower right side of the cover body 1501 when the cover body 1501 is viewed from the back). (Mounting surface) The socket of special connector SCN3 provided for 1520x The socket of the special connector SCN4 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1530x of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is inserted into and pushed into the plug of the special connector SCN1 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the substrate 1510. Mounting surface) Inserted into the plug of the special connector SCN2 provided on 1510x and pushed in, and the peripheral control board 1510 is packed on the left side of the cover body 1501 when the cover body 1501 is viewed from the back. It can also be fixed. Even in such a procedure for attaching various boards, by adopting the sockets of the special connectors SCN3 and SCN4 provided with the above-mentioned floating mechanism, it is possible to absorb the error in the front-and-rear direction caused by the pushing-in, so that the plug and socket It is possible to prevent breakage of a plurality of connection terminals formed on the substrate, and to reliably form transmission paths between the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and the peripheral control substrate 1510, and to connect the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 to the peripheral A transmission path between the control board 1510 and the board can be reliably formed.

  By the way, there are a plurality of types of game boards attached to the pachinko machines having different game specifications. In this embodiment, various substrates such as the peripheral control substrate 1510, the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 can be divided into three parts and attached to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501. The peripheral control board 1510 is a board that can be used in common without depending on the game specifications of the game board mounted on the pachinko machine, and the peripheral data ROM board 1520 is stored in the peripheral data ROM 1520a for each game board game specification. The peripheral data corresponding to is stored as a board that depends on the game specifications of the game board, and the liquid crystal output board 1530 is a board that depends on the method of the video signal input to the effect display device 1600.

  Accordingly, the peripheral control board 1510 is a board that does not depend on the game specifications of the game board and that does not depend on the method of the video signal input to the effect display device 1600, and is a common board. Therefore, it can be reused (recycled). Further, a peripheral data ROM board 1520 including a peripheral data ROM 1520a in which peripheral data corresponding to each game specification of the game board is stored and a peripheral control board 1510 are electrically connected by the above-described board-to-board connector. Therefore, the peripheral data ROM board 1520 can be easily exchanged according to the game specifications of the game board.

  As described above, there are a plurality of types of video signal systems that are input to a display device such as an effect display device, such as an RGB system, an LVDS system, a MIPI system, an eDP system, and a clockless system. The liquid crystal output board 1530 and the peripheral control board 1510 corresponding to these plural types of systems are electrically connected by the above-described inter-board connector. That is, the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 can be easily replaced in accordance with the method of the video signal input to the effect display device 1600. In the present embodiment, as described above, one of the two LVDS systems (for example, the first LVDS system) is used as the video signal system input to the effect display device 1600. Therefore, the liquid crystal output board 1530 matched to the video signal system (LVDS system) input to the effect display device 1600 is electrically connected to the peripheral control board 1510 by the inter-board connector described above.

  In the present embodiment, the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 are all made of a conductive resin containing carbon in polycarbonate, and the back surface of the cover body 1501 (cover flat plate 1501a). When various substrates such as a peripheral control substrate 1510, a peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and a liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are fixed to each side by metal pan-head screws, they are electrically connected to the ground (GND) and are identical. Since it is configured to be a ground (GND), noise that has entered from the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 flows to the substrate ground (ground (GND) of various substrates) to remove the noise. (Hereinafter referred to as “peripheral control board board made of conductive resin”). There is a case to be described as anti-noise effect "by box 1505). Thereby, it is not necessary to provide each type of substrate with a dedicated filter for removing such noise, which can contribute to cost reduction of the various substrates.

Although it has a function of confirming (monitoring) the state that is being performed, it also has a function as a spotlight that brightly illuminates the control ROM 1510b, thereby improving the visibility of the surface of the control ROM 1510b and the state of the IC pins Can be contributed to.

  The plurality of circular ventilation holes 1501az formed on the left side of the FAN mounting recess 1501aa can confirm the connection state of the inter-board connectors between the peripheral control board 1510 and the peripheral data ROM board 1520. Larger area than the shape of the board-to-board connector (the shape formed by the special connector SCN1 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 and the special connector SCN3 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1520x of the peripheral data ROM board 1520) Further, the product number and model (or management number) printed on the surface of the peripheral data ROM 1520a provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1520x of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, the state of the IC pin of the peripheral data ROM 1520a, Can be seen, that is, multi-directional They are arranged distributed and so that the large area almost can check the condition of the surface and the IC pin of the peripheral data ROM1520a from time. As a result, the modification of the inter-board connector by the special connector SCN1 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 and the special connector SCN3 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1520x of the peripheral data ROM board 1520 is changed into a plurality of circular shapes. It can confirm through the ventilation hole 1501az which has. Further, the LEDML3 arranged in the vicinity of the special connector SCN1 is maintained in a lighting state in a state where the direct current + 37V from the power supply board 630 of the board unit 620 is supplied. Although it has a function of checking (monitoring) the supplied state, it is provided on the special connector SCN1 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 and on the surface (mounting surface) 1520x of the peripheral data ROM board 1520. By further having a spotlight function of brightly illuminating the inter-board connector by the special connector SCN3, the special connector SCN1 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 and the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral data ROM board 1520 ) Special connector for 1520x And it is capable to contribute to the improvement of the visibility of the substrate between the connector according to the SCN 3.

  Further, the ventilation holes 1501az having a plurality of circular shapes formed on the lower left side of the FAN mounting recess 1501aa can confirm the connection state of the inter-board connectors between the peripheral control board 1510 and the liquid crystal output board 1530. An area larger than the shape of the board-to-board connector (a shape constituted by the special connector SCN2 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 and the special connector SCN4 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1530x of the liquid crystal output board 1530) Are arranged in a distributed manner. Thereby, the modification of the inter-board connector by the special connector SCN2 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 and the special connector SCN4 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1530x of the liquid crystal output board 1530 can be performed in a plurality of circular shapes. It can confirm through the ventilation hole 1501az which has. Further, since the LEDML4 arranged in the vicinity of the special connector SCN2 is maintained in the lighting state when the peripheral control IC 1510a is operating, the operation of the peripheral control IC 1510a is originally confirmed (monitored). Although it has a function, the board-to-board connector by the special connector SCN2 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 and the special connector SCN4 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1530x of the liquid crystal output board 1530 is brightly illuminated. By having a function as a spotlight, visual recognition of the inter-board connector by the special connector SCN2 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 and the special connector SCN4 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1530x of the liquid crystal output board 1530 Contribute to improvement of performance It has to be able to bet.

  The plurality of circular ventilation holes 1501az formed on the lower right side of the FAN mounting recess 1501aa are part numbers printed on the surfaces of the SDRAMs 1510c1 and 1510c2 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510. The SDRAM 1510c1, the state of the IC pins of the SDRAMs 1510c1 and 1510c2, and the state of the IC pins of the SDRAMs 1510c1 and 1510c2 can be confirmed from multi-directional angles. These are distributed and arranged so as to be larger than the shape of 1510c2. Thereby, the modification of the SDRAMs 1510c1 and 1510c2 can be confirmed through the ventilation holes 1501az having a plurality of circular shapes. Further, the LEDML2 arranged in the vicinity of the SDRAM 1510c composed of the SDRAMs 1510c1 and 1510c2 is maintained in the lighting state in a state where the direct current + 12V is supplied from the power supply substrate 630 of the substrate unit 620. The surface of the SDRAM 1510c (that is, the SDRAM 1510c1, 1510c2) is originally provided with a function of confirming (monitoring) a state in which DC + 12V is supplied, but also having a function as a spotlight that brightly illuminates the SDRAM 1510c. And the state of the IC pin can be improved.

  Further, among a plurality of blades constituting the wing portion of the air cooling fan FAN, the gap between the blades (specifically, the gap between the blade and the blade by the inspector rotating the wing portion of the air cooling fan FAN). The product number of the peripheral control IC 1510a provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 can be confirmed. Thereby, it can be confirmed through the ventilation holes 1501az having a plurality of circular shapes whether or not an unauthorized substrate is arranged around the periphery control IC 1510a.

  In the present embodiment, the LEDs ML1 to LEDML4 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 are surface-mounted and have a wide angle of about 120 degrees, and have a low directivity. Is suitable for lighting applications. When various substrates such as the peripheral control substrate 1510, the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are attached and fixed at predetermined positions on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a, as described above, the surfaces (covers) of the various substrates are covered. A space having a distance of a predetermined height (14.8 mm in this embodiment) is formed between the back surface of the flat plate 1501a and the back surface of the cover flat plate 1501a. When the LEDs ML1 to LEDML4 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510, which is also suitable for illumination, are turned on, the space thus formed can be illuminated brightly.

  In addition, LEDML1 to LEDML4 are emitted from the area of the back surface of the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501 and the periphery thereof facing the light emitting surfaces of the LEDML1 to LEDML4 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510. Reflecting portions (not shown) are formed so as to reflect the reflected light and direct it toward the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 again. As these reflecting portions (not shown), in addition to a bright colored paint such as white, a colored paint having gloss may be used, or a glossy metal sheet may be attached.

  Further, in the vicinity of the game board 5, a ball tank 552 and a tank rail 553 are arranged above the game board 5, and a payout unit 560 is arranged on the side of the game board 5. The game balls rub against each other and are charged and electrostatically discharged to become a noise source. For this reason, in the vicinity of the game board 5 where the ball path is formed, there is an environment that is affected by noise due to electrostatic discharge from the game ball. In addition, since the pachinko machines 1 are lined up opposite the island facilities in the game hall, other pachinko machines may be affected by noise as noise sources. Thus, the surroundings of the game board 5 are in an environment that is extremely susceptible to noise. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 are made of conductive resin containing carbon in polycarbonate, as described above, and the peripheral control board 1510, peripheral data A configuration in which the ROM substrate 1520 and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are electrically connected to the same ground (GND) is employed. As a result, noise that enters through the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502 of the peripheral control unit 1500 attached to the rear side of the game panel 1100 of the game board 5 is converted into the peripheral control board 1510, the peripheral data ROM board 1520, and The noise can be removed by flowing to a substrate ground (ground (GND) of various substrates) such as the liquid crystal output substrate 1530.

[Partial foil removal of solid ground]
By the way, the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 has a wiring pattern for transmitting a control signal, a wiring pattern for supplying power, and a region other than a region where various land patterns are formed as a ground (GND). Are formed as a so-called solid ground (substrate ground) (also referred to as “solid ground”), and the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control substrate 1510 also has a wiring pattern for transmitting control signals and a wiring pattern for supplying power. In addition, a region other than a region where various land patterns are formed is formed as a so-called solid ground (substrate ground) (also referred to as “solid ground”), which is a ground (GND). The solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 and the solid ground (substrate ground) formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board 1510 are the peripheral control board Holes (copper) penetrating through a plurality of through holes (both surfaces (front surface (mounting surface) and back surface (solder surface)) of peripheral control board 1510 formed on both surfaces (front surface (mounting surface) and back surface (solder surface)) of 1510 The same ground (GND) is obtained by being electrically connected through the plated holes)).

  Further, as described above, the base flat plate 1502a does not interfere with the connectors CN2 to CN7 provided on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 at a predetermined interval along the lower side when viewed from the front. Position (that is, each terminal of the connectors CN2 to CN7 provided on the front surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 is inserted from the front surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 to the back surface (solder surface) 1510y. Since it protrudes from the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of 1510, the peripheral force is generated by inserting a connector for connecting the wiring to these connectors CN2 to CN7 at positions that do not interfere with the protruding terminals. The control board 1510 is warped to prevent the electric wiring pattern formed on the peripheral control board 1510 from being disconnected. Elongated disconnection preventing rib portion 1502aa1~1502aa3 in the vertical direction are formed respectively.

  Further, when the peripheral control unit 1500 is assembled and the cover side sealing portion 1501ea formed on the cover body 1501 and the base side sealing portion 1502ea formed on the base body 1502 are sealed, as described above. The cover side walls 1501b to 1501e of the cover body 1501 are fitted inside and inscribed (surface contact) inside the base side walls 1502b to 1502e of the base body 1502, and the disconnection prevention rib portion 1502aa1 formed in the base body 1502 The front surface of ˜1502aa3 is in contact with the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board 1510.

  Further, as described above, the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 are all made of conductive resin containing carbon in polycarbonate, and the back surface of the cover body 1501 (cover flat plate 1501a). When various substrates such as a peripheral control substrate 1510, a peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and a liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are fixed to each side by metal pan-head screws, they are electrically connected to the ground (GND) and are identical. Since it is configured to be a ground (GND), noise that has entered from the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 flows to the substrate ground (ground (GND) of various substrates) to remove the noise. Be able to.

  By the way, the front surfaces of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 formed in the base body 1502 are in contact with the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board 1510. A solid ground was formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board 1510 at the contacted portion and the solid ground was covered with a resist. In the noise resistance test, the peripheral control at the contacted portion was performed. A solid ground is formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the substrate 1510 and covered with a resist, and a solid ground is not formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control substrate 1510 at this contacted portion and is covered with a resist. As a result, it was found that noise resistance was higher when a solid ground was not formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control substrate 1510 at this contacted portion and covered with a resist. .

  When electromagnetic wave noise enters through the base body 1502, a high voltage is applied to a portion where the front surface of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 formed on the base body 1502 contacts the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board 1510. As a result, electromagnetic noise passes through the resist and enters the solid brand. The electromagnetic wave noise enters through such an unexpected route, so that an electronic component that is easily affected by the electromagnetic noise and a wiring pattern electrically connected to the electronic component are formed on the base body 1502. If the front surfaces of the portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 are adjacent to the portion in contact with the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board 1510, it may cause malfunction or damage.

  Further, among the front surfaces of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 formed on the base body 1502, electromagnetic wave noise passes through the resist on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y portion of the peripheral control board 1510 that contacts with the disconnection prevention rib portion. Since it cannot be predicted whether it will intrude or not, it is difficult to dispose an electronic component that is easily affected by electromagnetic wave noise or a wiring pattern that is electrically connected to the electronic component with respect to a specific disconnection prevention rib portion.

  It should be noted that electromagnetic noise passes through the resist and becomes solid because a high voltage is applied to the portion where the front surface of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 formed on the base body 1502 contacts the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board 1510. In order to enter the brand, when the disconnection prevention ribs 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 and the betagrant are in contact with each other through the resist, a high voltage due to electromagnetic noise entering the base body 1502 is applied to the contacted portion. Thus, it is considered that an unnecessary loop wiring in which electromagnetic wave noise enters from the disconnection prevention rib portion to the betagran is formed.

  Here, the solid surface of the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board 1510 at the portion where the front surface of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 formed on the base body 1502 contacts the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board 1510. The shape of the ground will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 85 is a diagram showing the shape of the solid ground at the portion where the front surface of the disconnection preventing rib portion formed on the base body is in contact with the back surface (solder surface) of the peripheral control board. It is the schematic (a) of the copper foil surface, and is the schematic (b) of the back surface (solder surface) of the peripheral control board.

  As described above, the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 formed in the base body 1502 have an elongated shape in the vertical direction. As shown in FIG. 85 (a), each corresponding position and its surroundings are formed by a copper foil surface having a rectangular foil removal region 1510ya having a vertically long distance dimension dgw and a vertically spaced distance dimension dgh which is long in the vertical direction. Each is formed at 1510 yp. That is, an area where a part of the beta run is removed (removed) is formed on the lower side of the back surface (solder surface) of the peripheral control board.

  These foil drawing regions 1510ya have a distance dimension dg0 between the left side thereof and the left side surface of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 having a length greater than or equal to the distance dimension (width dimension) drw in the left-right direction of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3. Each is formed. The distance dimension (width dimension) drw in the left-right direction of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 as the length of the distance dimension dg0 between the left side of the foil drawing region 1510ya and the left side surface of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 is 1.0. In this embodiment, the distance dimension dg0 between the left side of the foil drawing region 1510ya and the left side surface of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 is the disconnection prevention rib portion 1502aa1 to 1502aa3. Is 1.5 times as long as the distance dimension (width dimension) drw in the left-right direction.

  Further, these foil drawing regions 1510ya have a distance dimension dg1 between the right side thereof and the right side surface of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 being longer than the distance dimension (width dimension) drw in the left-right direction of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3. Each is formed. The distance dimension (width dimension) drw in the left-right direction of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 is the length of the distance dimension dg1 between the right side of the foil drawing region 1510ya and the right side surface of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3. In this embodiment, the distance dimension dg1 between the right side of the foil drawing region 1510ya and the right side surface of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 is the disconnection prevention rib portion 1502aa1 to 1502aa3. Is 1.5 times as long as the distance dimension (width dimension) drw in the horizontal direction.

  Further, the distance dimension dg2 between the upper side and the upper side surface of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 is longer than the distance dimension (width dimension) drw in the left-right direction of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3. Each is formed. The distance dimension (width dimension) drw in the left-right direction of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 is the length of the distance dimension dg2 between the upper side of these foil drawing regions 1510ya and the upper side surfaces of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3. In this embodiment, the distance dimension dg2 between the upper side of the foil drawing region 1510ya and the upper side surface of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 is the disconnection prevention rib portion 1502aa1 to 1502aa3. Is 1.5 times as long as the distance dimension (width dimension) drw in the left-right direction.

  That is, the foil removal region 1510ya is not electrically connected to the solid ground by forming the foil removal region 1510ya on the copper foil surface 1510yp on which the solid ground is formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board, It is an insulated area.

  When the resist solution is applied to the copper foil surface 1510yp of the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control substrate, as shown in FIG. 85 (b), the resist solution is also applied to the foil removal region 1510ya and the resist layer 1510yr. Is formed. The disconnection prevention ribs 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 formed on the base body 1502 come into contact with the resist layer 1510yr on the foil removal region 1510ya on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control substrate. A solid ground is formed on the copper foil surface on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510x corresponding to the foil extraction area 1510ya of the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board. No foil removal region of the same shape is formed at all.

  As described above, the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 are all made of conductive resin containing carbon in polycarbonate, and on the back side of the cover body 1501 (cover flat plate 1501a). When various boards such as the peripheral control board 1510, the peripheral data ROM board 1520, and the liquid crystal output board 1530 are fixed by metal pan-head screws, these grounds (GND) are electrically connected to the same ground (GND). GND). For this reason, in this embodiment, the peripheral control is performed from the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 formed in the base body 1502 by the noise that has entered the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 via the foil removal region 1510ya. A “noise-free route” that cannot enter the solid ground on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the substrate is formed, and the noise that has entered the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 is described above. By forming a “route through which noise flows” that flows to the substrate ground (grounds (GND) of various substrates) via a metal pan-head screw, noise can be removed.

[Reuse of peripheral control boards]
As described above, the peripheral control board 1510 is a board that does not depend on the game specifications of the game board and that does not depend on the method of the video signal input to the effect display device 1600, and is a common board. Therefore, it can be reused (recycled).

  As described above, the periphery of the four through-holes 1510r1 to 1510r4 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 is a soldering copper foil (so-called “so-called” “circular shape” on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510. Land ”) 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 and soldering copper foil (so-called“ land ”) 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 having a circular shape on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510, respectively. When attaching the peripheral control board 1510 to the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a, as described above, the front surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1501 is directed to the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a and is formed on the peripheral control board 1510. The through holes 1510r1 to 1510r4 are arranged so as to match the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a, and metal pan screws (not shown) are inserted into the through holes 1510r1 to 1510r4 to attach the boss holes. The peripheral control board 1510 is fixed to the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a by screwing toward 1501ag1 to 1501ag4. Therefore, the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 are in contact with the seat surface (the seat surface of the head) of the pan portion of the metal pan screw.

  As described above, since the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 are in contact with the seat surface (head seat surface) of the pan portion of the metal pan screw, By reusing the peripheral control board 1510, lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 are formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a by repeated screwing and removal with a metal pan head screw. The mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 are rubbed and peeled off from the base material of the peripheral control board 1510, or the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 are made of metal. Peripheral control board 151 rubbing against the seat surface (head seat surface) of the screw pan The copper foils of the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 and the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4y on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 are exposed. If so, there is a problem that it becomes difficult to reuse the peripheral control board 1510 due to oxidation and poor electrical connectivity.

  Therefore, in this embodiment, the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 and the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 are the surfaces. Each copper foil is soldered so as not to be exposed. This solder electrically connects the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a and the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510. In addition to being covered so as to be connectable, the back surface (solder surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is electrically connected to the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the 1510y side and the seat surface (head seat surface) of the pan portion of the metal pan head screw. It is covered so that it can be connected. This prevents the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the front surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 from rubbing against the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. And the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 are seat surfaces (heads) of the metal pan screw. The surface of the peripheral control board 1510 can be prevented from being peeled off from the base material of the peripheral control board 1510, the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510, Land 1 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 The copper foil portions of 10rb1 to 1510rb4 are not exposed and can be prevented from being oxidized, and are formed on the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 and the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. It is possible to improve electrical connectivity in a state where the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 are in contact with the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces), and the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board 1510 due to the viscosity of the solder. It is possible to improve electrical connectivity in a state where the side lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 and the seat surface (head seat surface) of the pan portion of the metal pan screw are in contact with each other.

  As a result, even if the peripheral control board 1510 is reused, noise that has entered the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 passes through the metal pan screw (the ground (GND) of various boards). The above-described “route through which noise is removed” is surely formed, so that the noise countermeasure effect by the peripheral control board box 1505 made of conductive resin can be stably maintained.

  In the present embodiment, the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the front surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 and the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 are as described above. The copper foil on the surface is soldered so as not to be exposed. The lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 are soldered to the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 because the bearing surface of the metal pan-screw is abutted as described above. If the thickness is not uniform (that is, if there is a portion where the solder is raised), the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 of the peripheral control board 1510 and the metal pan-screw bearing surface There is a problem that the area of contact decreases and the electrical connectivity deteriorates. Further, as described above, the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 and the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. If the thickness soldered to the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 is not uniform (that is, if there is a portion where the solder is raised), the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 The area of contact between the side lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 and the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a is reduced, resulting in poor electrical connectivity. There's a problem. In addition, if the thickness soldered to the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 is not uniform (that is, if there is a portion where the solder is raised), the through holes 1510r1 to 1510r4 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 When the peripheral control board 1510 is fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a by inserting a metal pan screw into the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a, The control board 1510 is distorted, and various wiring patterns are disconnected.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, the peripheral control board 1510 is applied to the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 with which the bearing surface of the metal pan screw abuts. A metal mask is placed on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the substrate, and a solder paste is spread on the metal mask by using a squeegee (like a spatula) to apply from a hole formed in the metal mask. By placing the back surface (solder surface) 1510y in a reflow furnace and drying the solder paste with heat, the thickness soldered to the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 is made uniform as the thickness of the metal mask. Can do. Further, copper which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 that comes into contact with the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. The foil is formed on the metal mask by placing a metal mask on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 and spreading the solder paste on the metal mask using a squeegee (like a spatula). Applying from the holes, putting the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 into a reflow oven and drying the solder paste by heat, the thickness soldered to the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 The plate thickness of the metal mask can be made uniform.

[Modification]
In the above-described embodiment, the front surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 and the rear surface (solder surface) 1510y side land 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 of the peripheral control board 1510 Each of the copper foils was soldered so as not to be exposed, but the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board 1510 that abuts the seat surface (head seat surface) of the pan portion of the metal pan screw. Surface of the peripheral control board 1510 which is soldered to the copper foils which are the surfaces of the side lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 and contacts the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a (Mounting surface) Lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf on the 1510x side The copper foil is a surface of the may be covered by applying a resist solution. The copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control substrate 1510 is applied together with the entire surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control substrate 1510 being applied with a resist solution. The Even with this configuration, metal pan-head screws are inserted into the through holes 1510r1 to 1510r4 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 toward the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. By fixing the peripheral control board 1510 to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a by screwing, the ground (GND) of the peripheral control board 1510 and the cover body 1501 are electrically connected via a metal pan screw. State. Further, copper which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 in contact with the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. By coating the foil with a resist solution and covering it, the thickness of the resist layer applied to the surfaces of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 can be made uniform. As a result, the resist layers in the portions corresponding to the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 have the same thickness, and thus the through holes 1510r1 formed in the peripheral control board 1510. When the peripheral control board 1510 is fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a by inserting a metal pan-head screw into ~ 1510r4 and screwing it toward the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. Further, distortion of the peripheral control board 1510 can be prevented.

  In the above-described embodiment, the land 1510rf1 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 that abuts the mounting surface (boss surface) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. For copper foil, which is the surface of 1510rf4, a metal mask is placed on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510, and a solder paste is spread on the metal mask using a squeegee (like a spatula). It was applied from the hole formed in the metal mask, and the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 was placed in a reflow furnace so that the solder paste was dried by heat. ) May be poured into a solder bath and soldered. In this case, the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the front surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 abut the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. In order not to reduce the area and the electrical connectivity, the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is not partly raised. It needs to be uniform. FIG. 86 is a diagram showing the shape of the resist with respect to the land when the peripheral control board is poured into the solder bath.

  For example, a copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is formed with a resist layer 1510xr that is partially coated with a resist solution and formed into a predetermined shape, The surface of the peripheral control board 1510 (mounting surface) is soldered to a region having a predetermined shape of the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4. Specifically, as the “predetermined shape”, as shown in FIG. 86 (a), a resist is predetermined on the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510. A shape in which a plurality of circles having a width are formed concentrically (a shape in which a single circle having a predetermined width is formed concentrically), as shown in FIG. 86 (b), the resist has a predetermined width A rectangular shape having a predetermined length is formed in a chrysanthemum shape in which a plurality of circular shapes are arranged in the shape of the center of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4, as shown in FIG. 86 (c), a vertical line in which the resist has a predetermined width. And a shape formed in a grid pattern composed of horizontal lines (the resist may have a shape in which a plurality of lines in the vertical direction having a predetermined width are separated by a predetermined distance dimension, or a resist Only a lateral line having a width may have a shape in which a plurality of lines are formed separated by a predetermined distance dimension.) As shown in FIG. 86 (d), a line having a predetermined width is separated by a predetermined distance to the right. A shape in which a plurality of rising lines are formed in a diagonal shape (a line in which the resist has a predetermined width may be separated by a predetermined distance and a plurality of right-down lines are formed in a slanting shape), a small circle (not shown) The shape etc. which collected the shape can be mentioned.

  In this way, a resist layer 1510xr is formed in which a part of the copper foil, which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510, is applied with a resist solution and formed into a predetermined shape. Since the surface of the control board 1510 (mounting surface) is soldered to a region having a predetermined shape of the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4, the surface of the peripheral control board 1510 (mounting surface) The amount of solder to be soldered to the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 can be suppressed (in other words, the surface of the peripheral control substrate 1510 (mounting surface) is applied as a predetermined shape by applying a resist solution. The amount of solder to be soldered to the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 Effect as long as the can demonstrate that it is possible to win). Accordingly, when the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is poured into the solder bath and soldered, the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is not soldered. The attachment can be made uniform so that it does not rise partially. The solder thus soldered includes the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a and the lands 1510rf1 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510. 1510rf4 is covered so as to be electrically connectable.

  It should be noted that a predetermined figure formed by such a resist is a land on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 that abuts the seat surface (head seat surface) of the pan portion of the metal pan screw. You may perform also with respect to the copper foil which is the surface of 1510rb1-1510rb4. The solder thus soldered electrically connects the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 and the seat surface (the seat surface of the head) of the pan portion of the metal pan screw. It is covered so that it can be connected. Further, when the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is poured into the solder bath and soldered, the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is applied with a resist solution. Thus, the thickness of the resist layer applied to the surfaces of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 may be uniform.

  In the above-described embodiment, the metal pan head screw is used when the peripheral control board 1510 is fixed to the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. The peripheral control board 1510 may be fixed to the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a through a metal washer such as a washer (also referred to as “chest washer”).

  In the embodiment described above, when the peripheral control board 1510 is fixed to the conductive resin cover 1501, the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 formed on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 and the cover flat plate 1501a. The mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of each of the contact surfaces are in contact with each other, and the land 1510rb1 formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510. ˜1510rb4 and the bearing surface of the metal pan screw are in contact with each other, so that the cover body 1501 (cover flat plate 1501a) is formed on the peripheral control board 1510 via the metal pan screw. Land 1510rf1 to 1510rf4, 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 and In this state, the cover body 1501 and the ground (GND) of the peripheral control board 1510 are electrically connected. However, instead of the conductive resin cover 1501, the cover body 1501 is electrically connected to the ground (GND). The cover 1501 ′ may be used. In this case, the base body 1502 that closes the opening of the cover body 1501 may be made of conductive resin, may be made of metal instead of the conductive resin, The wiring cover body 1503 that closes the wiring lead-out opening 1501ae may be made of conductive resin or metal.

  Note that an amplifier board having a circuit for amplifying various sounds consumes a large amount of power and generates heat. Therefore, the amplifier board is housed in a metal board box composed of a metal cover body and a metal base body or attached to a metal partial case. When the amplifier board is housed in a metal board box, the air heated by the heat generated by the amplifier board or the heat of the amplifier board itself is efficiently radiated to the outside air by the metal board box. Further, when the amplifier board is attached to the metal partial case, the heat of the amplifier board itself can be efficiently radiated to the outside air by the metal partial case.

  The amplifier board is housed in a metal board box composed of a metal cover body and a metal base body, or is attached to a metal partial case. Noise may enter the partial case. Therefore, as in the peripheral control board 1510 described above (that is, the cover body 1501 and the ground (GND) of the peripheral control board 1510 are electrically connected), a plurality of amplifier boards are formed. The land and the mounting surface (boss surface) of a plurality of mounting boss holes formed on the back surface side of the metal cover body or metal partial case of the metal board box are in contact with each other. A plurality of lands formed on the back surface (solder surface) side of the amplifier substrate and the metal pan screw's seating surface are in contact with each other, so that the metal is interposed via the metal pan screw. The metal cover body or metal of the metal board box is made in a state where the metal cover body or metal partial case is electrically connected to the plurality of lands formed on the amplifier board. Part case and amplifier board ground and (GND) can be a state of being electrically connected. Further, the heat of the amplifier board itself is transmitted from the ground (GND) of the amplifier board to the metal cover body or the metal partial case of the metal board box through the metal pan screw, and efficiently radiated to the outside air. You can also

  In the above-described embodiment, the cover body 1501 (cover flat plate 1501a) is electrically connected to the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 and 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 formed on the peripheral control board 1510 via the metal pan-screw. Thus, the cover body 1501 and the ground (GND) of the peripheral control board 1510 are in a state of being electrically connected. However, the cover body 1501 can also be used in a two-story board (so-called “turtle turtle board”). it can. For example, the plurality of lands on the parent board are electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the parent board, the plurality of lands on the daughter board are electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the daughter board, and the plurality of lands on the parent board are connected. And the plurality of lands of the sub board are screwed at both ends of the metal support (spacer), respectively, so that electricity is supplied via the plurality of lands of the main board, the plurality of lands of the sub board and the metal support (spacer). Can be connected to each other. Thereby, the ground (GND) of the parent board and the ground (GND) of the child board can be made the same ground (GND) through the metal support (spacer).

  In the above-described embodiment, the peripheral control board 1510 is housed in the peripheral control board box 1505 made of conductive resin. However, the main control board box 1320 that houses the main control board 1310 and the dispensing control board 633 are housed. When configured to be made of conductive resin with respect to the payout control board box 632, the main control board box 1320 and the payout control board box 632 need to be transparent in order, and those made of conductive resin are used. Although not possible, the substrate box for accommodating the power supply board and the various relay board boxes for accommodating various relay boards are configured as those made of conductive resin, and the peripheral control board 1510 is fixed to the peripheral control board box. You may make it fix by the same method. In this way, the same effect as the noise countermeasure effect of the peripheral control board box 1505 made of the conductive resin described above can be exerted on the board box containing the power supply board and the various relay board boxes containing the various relay boards. it can.

  In the embodiment described above, a ball tank 552 and a tank rail 553 are arranged above the game board 5 near the game board 5 to which the peripheral control unit 1500 is attached, as shown in FIG. In the state where the peripheral control unit 1500 is attached to the rear side of the fifth gaming panel 1100 (the rear side of the effect display device 1600 attached to the rear side of the back box 3010 of the back unit 3000), the peripheral control board 1510 is provided. A ball tank includes an inter-board connector using a special connector SCN1 and a special connector SCN3 provided on the peripheral data ROM board 1520, a special connector SCN2 provided on the peripheral control board 1510, and an inter-board connector using a special connector SCN4 provided on the liquid crystal output board 1530.

As described above, the tank rail 553 is externally connected to the metal powder of the game ball B through the notch portions 553aa formed on the lower side (lower side of the rear surface of the tank rail 553 when the pachinko machine 1 is viewed from the front). Since the board-to-board connector described above is arranged away from the tank rail 553, an electrical trouble caused by the metal powder of the game ball B can be generated in the board-to-board connector described above. Can be prevented.

  In the above-described embodiment, the board-to-board connector by the special connector SCN1 provided on the peripheral control board 1510 and the special connector SCN3 provided on the peripheral data ROM board 1520, the special connector SCN2 provided on the peripheral control board 1510, and the liquid crystal output board 1530 are provided. The board-to-board connector with the special connector SCN4 provided is a peripheral control unit on the rear side of the game panel 1100 of the game board 5 (the rear side of the effect display device 1600 attached to the rear surface of the back box 3010 of the back unit 3000). In the state where 1500 is attached, as shown in FIG. 82, the upper area of the board-to-board connector can be reduced by arranging it long in the up-down direction. The area to adhere can be minimized. In addition, when the above-mentioned board-to-board connector is arranged long in the left-right direction, the area on the upper side of the board-to-board connector increases, so the area to which dust, some metallic powder, etc. adheres increases extremely. Become. On the other hand, the connectors CN1 to CN7 provided on the peripheral control board 1510 and the connectors CN8 and CN9 provided on the liquid crystal output board 1530 are long in the left-right direction as shown in FIG. However, as described above, when viewed from the bottom surface of the connector recess 1501ac, the upper side of the bottom surface of the connector recess 1501ac is the upper surface of the connector recess 1501ac. The cover flat plate 1501a protrudes from the surface of the cover flat plate 1501a even when plugs corresponding to the connectors CN1 to CN9 are inserted, so that the plug cannot be protruded from the surface of the cover flat plate 1501a. Dust or some kind of metal adhering to the cover side wall 1501b provided on the upper side of the flat plate 1501a Even powder etc. may fall from the cover side wall 1501b having a, so that it can be prevented from adhering to the connector CN1～CN9. In this way, the direction in which the above-described inter-board connector is disposed, and the direction in which the connectors CN1 to CN9 are disposed so that dust, powder having some metallicity, etc. can be prevented from adhering to each electrical terminal, Is selected.

  In the embodiment described above, the peripheral control board 1510 is provided with the plugs of the special connectors SCN1 and SCN2, the peripheral data ROM board 1520 is provided with the socket of the special connector SCN3, and the liquid crystal output board 1530 is provided with the socket of the special connector SCN4. However, you may arrange | position so that the direction through which information and a signal flow can be visually recognized. In such a case, the side that transmits information and signals can be a plug (or socket), and the side that receives information and signals can be a socket (or plug). For example, in the embodiment described above, various control information (peripheral data) stored in the peripheral data ROM 1520a included in the peripheral data ROM board 1520 is transferred from the peripheral data ROM board 1520 to the peripheral control board 1510. The ROM board 1520 is the transmitting side, and the peripheral control board 1510 is the receiving side. In such a case, the peripheral data ROM board 1520 is provided with a special connector (or a special connector that serves as a socket), and correspondingly, when the socket is provided on the peripheral control board 1510, a special connector (or plug and plug) is provided. A special connector). In the above-described embodiment, since a plurality of types of video signal systems are output from the peripheral control board 1510 to the liquid crystal output board 1530, the peripheral control board 1510 is the transmission side and the liquid crystal output board 1530 is the reception side. In such a case, the peripheral control board 1510 is provided with a special connector (or a special connector that serves as a socket), and correspondingly, when the socket is provided on the liquid crystal output board 1530, it becomes a special connector (or plug). A special connector).

  In the above-described embodiment, a plurality of ventilation holes 1501az are formed in the cover flat plate 1510a of the cover body 1501, but the cover side walls 1501b to 1501b provided on the upper side, the left side, the lower side, and the right side of the cover flat plate of the cover body 1501, respectively. A plurality of ventilation holes 1501az may be formed by combining one or a combination of them except for the cover side wall 1501b provided on the upper side of 1501e. For example, a plurality of ventilation holes 1501az may be formed only on the cover side wall 1501c provided on the left side, a plurality of ventilation holes 1501az may be formed only on the cover side wall 1501d provided on the lower side, or a cover side wall provided on the right side. A plurality of ventilation holes 1501az may be formed only in 1501e, or a plurality of ventilation holes 1501az may be formed by combining a plurality of cover side walls 1501c to 1501e provided on the cover flat plate 1510a, the left side, the lower side, and the right side, respectively. . Even if configured in this way, the foreign matter generated by the game ball B (for example, metal powder generated by wear of the game ball B) falls toward the inside of the peripheral control board box 1505 through the ventilation holes 1501az. Intrusion can be prevented. As a result, it is possible to prevent electrical troubles due to foreign matter falling on the various substrates of the peripheral control board box 1505. Therefore, an electrical trouble due to a foreign matter falling from the tank rail 553 can be prevented. The reason why the ventilation hole 1501az is not formed in the cover side wall 1501b provided on the upper side is that if the ventilation hole 1501az is formed in the cover side wall 1501b provided on the upper side, the peripheral control board box 1505 is passed through the ventilation hole 1501az. The foreign matter generated by the game ball B toward the inside (for example, metal powder generated by the wear of the game ball B) drops and enters, so that the electrical due to the fallen foreign matter on the various boards of the peripheral control board box 1505 This is because the probability of occurrence of trouble increases.

Since the metal shield plate 1540 is connected to the ground (GND) of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, the metal shield plate 1540 is connected to the ground (GND) line of the power supply substrate 630.

  When the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is attached to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a, a through hole 1540b2a formed in an L-shaped attachment piece 1540b2 of a metal shield plate 1540 described later is attached to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a.

The output board 1530 can be fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. As a result, the L-shaped mounting piece 1540b2 of the metal shield plate 1540 is sandwiched between the cover body 1501 and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530. In this state, of the lands 1530rf1 to 1530rf4 formed on the front surface side of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530, the land 1530rf1 and the back surface of the L-shaped attachment piece 1540b2 of the metal shield plate 1540 are in contact with each other.

In a state of being sandwiched and fixed between the cover body 1501 and various substrates, the cover side walls 1501b to 1501e of the cover body 1501 do not interfere with the outer periphery of the shield flat plate 1540a, respectively, and the FAN mounting recess 1501aa of the cover flat plate 1501a, and The wiring lead recess 1501ab is inserted without contacting the opening 1540aa of the shield flat plate 1540a.

  The metal shield plate 1540 is formed by bending so that the back surfaces of the L-shaped mounting pieces 1540b1 and 1540b2 and the back surfaces of the L-shaped mounting pieces 1540c1 and 1540c2 are arranged in the same plane, The L-shaped attachment pieces 1540b1, 1540b2, 1540c1, and 1540c2 are formed so that the back surface of the shield plate 1540a and the front surface of the shield flat plate 1540a are parallel to each other. In the second embodiment, the distance dimension from the surface of the shield flat plate 1540a to the back surfaces of the L-shaped attachment pieces 1540b1, 1540b2, 1540c1, and 1540c2 is 13.2 mm.

  In the L-shaped attachment pieces 1540b1 and 1540b2, through holes 1540b1a and 1540b2a are respectively formed at positions corresponding to the attachment boss holes 1501ah2 and 1501am1 formed on the back surface of the cover body 1501 described above. As described above, the mounting boss hole 1501ah2 protrudes from the back surface of the cover flat plate 1501a toward the opening side of the cover body 1501 at a position corresponding to the four through holes 1520r1 to 1520r4 formed in the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520. It is one attachment boss hole of a pair of attachment boss holes 1501ah1 and 1501ah2 formed in this manner. As described above, the mounting boss hole 1501am1 protrudes from the back surface of the cover flat plate 1501a toward the opening side of the cover body 1501 at a position corresponding to the four through holes 1530r1 to 1530r4 formed in the liquid crystal output substrate 1530. It is one mounting boss hole of the formed pair of mounting boss holes 1501am1 and 1501am2.

  In the L-shaped attachment pieces 1540c1 and 1540c2, through holes 1540c1a and 1540c2a are respectively formed at positions corresponding to the attachment boss holes 1501ag1 and 1501ag4 formed on the back surface of the cover body 1501 described above. As described above, these mounting boss holes 1501ag1 and 1501ag4 extend from the back surface of the cover flat plate 1501a toward the opening side of the cover body 1501 at positions corresponding to the four through holes 1510r1 to 1510r4 formed in the peripheral control board 1510. These are two mounting boss holes out of the four mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed to protrude.

  Various substrates such as the peripheral control substrate 1510, the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are attached to the cover plate 1501 together with the metal shield plate 1540 at predetermined positions on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. In a state of being sandwiched and fixed by the various substrates, the distance dimension (this first dimension) between the surfaces of the various substrates (the surface opposite to the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a) and the back surface of the cover flat plate 1501a. In the second embodiment, a space having 14.8 mm) is formed, and two spaces are formed by disposing a metal shield plate 1540 in this space.

  These two spaces are distance dimensions of a first predetermined height between the front surfaces of the various substrates (the surface facing the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a) and the back surface of the shield flat plate 1540a of the metal shield plate 1540 described later. (In the second embodiment, 12 mm) between the first space 1505a (see FIG. 90) and the surface of the shield plate 1540a of the metal shield plate 1540 described later and the back surface of the cover plate 1501a. And a second space 1505b (see FIG. 90) having a distance dimension of a second predetermined height (1.6 mm in the second embodiment).

  In the first space 1505a, various electronic components provided on the peripheral control board 1510 (peripheral control IC 1510a, control ROM 1510b, SDRAM 1510c, real time clock IC (not shown), backup power supply 1510e, power generation circuit not shown, resistor not shown, not shown) Capacitors, LEDML1 to LEDML4, special connectors SCN1, SCN2, etc.), various electronic components provided in the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 (peripheral data ROM 1520a, resistors not shown, capacitors not shown, special connector SCN3 etc.), and the liquid crystal output board 1530 Various electronic components and the like (resistors not shown, capacitors not shown, special connectors SCN4, etc.) are accommodated, whereas the second space 1505b contains various electronic components at all. No. This is because it is possible to take measures against noise (electromagnetic wave noise) by accommodating various electronic components and the like that are easily affected by noise (electromagnetic wave noise) in the first space 1505a, and in the second space 1505b. This is because heat generated from various electronic components in the first space 1505a is efficiently transferred to the second space 1505b via the metal shield plate 1540 by not accommodating various electronic components that generate heat. . That is, the metal shield plate 1540 has a function as a heat sink in addition to a function of reducing (suppressing) noise (electromagnetic wave noise).

  The shield flat plate 1540a of the shield plate 1540 is provided with vent holes 1540az having the same shape at positions corresponding to the plurality of circular vent holes 1501az formed in the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501. That is, these ventilation holes 1540az are formed to have a diameter of 3 mm, a horizontal pitch width of 6.5 mm, and a vertical pitch width of 6.0 mm to 6.5 mm, similarly to the ventilation holes 1501az. Yes. When the wing portion of the air cooling fan FAN attached to the FAN attachment recess 1501aa of the cover body 1501 rotates, the air in the inner space of the cover body 1501 is expelled toward the outside of the peripheral control unit 1500 through the wing portion by this rotation. Thus, air is taken in from outside the peripheral control unit 1500 via the ventilation holes 1501az formed in the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501 and the ventilation holes 1540az formed in the shield flat plate 1540a of the shield plate 1540. The first space 1505a (particularly the peripheral control IC 1510a) in the inner space of the body 1501 can be air-cooled, and the metal shield plate 1540 can be air-cooled.

Has a rectangular shape (see FIG. 91) having a width of about 2 mm and a height of about 0.035 mm.

[Assembly Method of Peripheral Control Board Box According to Second Embodiment]
A method for assembling the peripheral control unit 1500 will be described. First, the socket of the special connector SCN3 provided on the peripheral data ROM board 1520 is inserted and pushed into the plug of the special connector SCN1 provided on the peripheral control board 1510. Subsequently, the socket of the special connector SCN4 provided on the liquid crystal output board 1530 is inserted and pushed into the plug of the special connector SCN2 provided on the peripheral control board 1510.

  Subsequently, in order to attach the peripheral control board 1510, the peripheral data ROM board 1520, and the liquid crystal output board 1530 to the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a, a through hole 1540c1a formed in the L-shaped attachment piece 1540c1 of the metal shield plate 1540. Is aligned with the mounting boss hole 1501ag1 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a, and the through hole 1540c2a formed in the L-shaped mounting piece 1540c2 of the metal shield plate 1540 is replaced with the back surface of the cover flat plate 1501a. The mounting boss is formed so as to match the mounting boss hole 1501ag4 formed on the side, and the through hole 1540b1a formed in the L-shaped mounting piece 1540b1 of the metal shield plate 1540 is formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. Placed to match hole 1501ah2, made of metal A through hole 1540b2a formed in an L-shaped mounting piece 1540b2 of the shield plate 1540 are arranged to fit the mounting boss hole 1501am1 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a.

  Subsequently, the through holes 1520r1 and 1520r3 formed in the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 are inserted into the mounting boss protrusions 1501ai1 and 1501ai2 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a and the through holes formed in the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are formed. The holes 1530r2 and 1530r4 are inserted into mounting boss protrusions 1501an1 and 1501an2 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. Accordingly, the through holes 1510r1 to 1510r4 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 have an arrangement corresponding to the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a, and the through holes formed in the peripheral data ROM board 1520 are formed. The holes 1520r2 and 1520r4 are arranged corresponding to the mounting boss holes 1501ah1 and 1501ah2 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a, and the through holes 1530r1 and 1530r3 formed in the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. This is an arrangement corresponding to the mounting boss holes 1501am1 and 1501am2.

  Subsequently, a metal pan screw (not shown) is inserted into the through holes 1520r2 and 1520r4 formed in the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and screwed toward the mounting boss holes 1501ah1 and 1501ah2 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. The peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 is fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a, and a metal pan screw (not shown) is inserted into the through holes 1530r1 and 1530r3 formed in the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 to form on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. The liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a by screwing it toward the mounting boss holes 1501am1 and 1501am2. As a result, the L-shaped mounting piece 1540b1 of the metal shield plate 1540 is sandwiched between the cover body 1501 and the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and the L-shaped mounting piece 1540b2 of the metal shield plate 1540 is The cover body 1501 and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are sandwiched.

  Subsequently, since the through holes 1510r1 to 1510r4 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 are arranged corresponding to the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a, they are adjusted as they are or as a fine adjustment. If necessary, the through holes 1510r1 to 1510r4 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 are arranged so as to match the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a, and the through holes 1510r1 to 1510r4 are arranged. The peripheral control board 1510 is fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a by inserting a metal pan-head screw (not shown) into the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4. As a result, the L-shaped mounting pieces 1540c1 and 1540c2 of the metal shield plate 1540 are held between the cover body 1501 and the peripheral control board 1510. In other words, various boards such as the peripheral control board 1510, the peripheral data ROM board 1520, and the liquid crystal output board 1530 are attached together with the metal shield board 1540 at predetermined positions on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a, so that the shield board 1540 is covered. The body 1501 and the various substrates are sandwiched and fixed.

  Thus, of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, the liquid crystal output substrate 1530, and the peripheral control substrate 1510, the peripheral control substrate 1510 is finally fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a.

  The peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 is inserted into mounting boss protrusions 1501ai1 and 1501ai2 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a, thereby restraining movement in the vertical and horizontal directions, and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is connected to the cover flat plate 1501a. While the movement in the vertical and horizontal directions is restrained by being inserted into the mounting boss protrusions 1501an1 and 1501an2 formed on the back side, the peripheral control board 1510 has a mounting boss for restraining the vertical and horizontal directions. The protrusion is not formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. This is because the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a to restrict the vertical and horizontal directions, and the dimensional error due to such restriction is applied to the peripheral control substrate 1510. Dimensional dimensions provided to the through holes 1510r1 to 1510r4 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 and the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a when fixed to the back side of the 1501a. It can be absorbed with a sufficient margin.

  Subsequently, in a state where the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, the liquid crystal output substrate 1530, and the peripheral control substrate 1510 are fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a, the plate-shaped guide portions 1501ca and 1501cb formed on the cover body 1501 are The base body 1502 is inserted into the guide receiving portions 1502caa and 1502cab formed on the engaging portion 1502ca of the base body 1502, and the L-shaped flange portions 1501cca and 1501cda of the hinge hanging portions 1501cc and 1501cd formed on the cover body 1501 are attached to the base body. Inserted into the U-shaped bag-shaped bag portions 1502cae and 1502caf of the hinge receiving portions 1502cac and 1502cad formed in the engaging portion 1502ca of 1502.

  Subsequently, the L-shaped flange portions 1501cca and 1501cda of the hinge hook portions 1501cc and 1501cd formed on the cover body 1501 are in contact with the U-shaped bag-shaped bag portions 1502cae and 1502caf of the hinge receiving portions 1502cac and 1502cad. Then, the base body 1502 is wrapped around so as to cover the opening side of the cover body 1501, and the L-shaped circuit connection piece 1540 d of the metal shield plate 1540 passes through the through-hole 1502 ab of the base body 1502 and covers the base body 1502 as it is. In the state of covering the body 1501, the L-shaped circuit connection piece 1540d protrudes from the back surface of the base body 1502, and a metal anchor rivet (not shown) is inserted into the cover side sealing portion 1501ea formed on the cover body 1501. Insert a metal one-way screw Screwed toward the base side sealing section 1502ea formed on the base member 1502 Te. When the metal one-way screw is screwed in, the tip surface of the metal anchor rivet spreads outward at the base-side sealing portion 1502ea, thereby forming the cover-side sealing portion 1501ea formed on the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502. The base side sealing portion 1502ea to be sealed is in a sealed state.

  In such a sealed state, the cover side walls 1501b to 1501e of the cover body 1501 are fitted inside the base side walls 1502b to 1502e of the base body 1502 and inscribed (surface contact). In the sealed state, the L-shaped circuit connection piece 1540d of the metal shield plate 1540 protrudes from the back surface of the base body 1502, and the L-shaped circuit connection piece 1540d from the back surface of the base body 1502. The distance dimension (protrusion length) extending to the back surface is 2.7 mm.

  In order to release such a sealed state, the cover side sealing portion 1501ea formed on the cover body 1501 has to be destroyed with a tool. Therefore, by observing the opening and closing traces, it is possible to detect unauthorized opening and closing of the peripheral control board box 1505 constituted by the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502, and deterring power against illegal actions on the peripheral control board box 1505. Has been increased.

  Subsequently, the air cooling fan FAN is pushed into the FAN mounting recess 1501aa formed on the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501, and a plurality of wires from the air cooling fan FAN are drawn from the wiring lead recess 1501ab formed on the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501. From the front of the cover flat plate 1501a to the rear, respectively, a lead screw with a metal seat (not shown) having a shape in which a pan head and a flat washer are integrated is screwed into the drawer and mounting holes 1501aac1 and aac2.

  Subsequently, in order to connect a plurality of wirings (harnesses) to the effect display device 1600 to the connector CN10 of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 via the wiring lead-out openings 1501ae formed in the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501. The connector is inserted and attached, and the wiring cover body 1503 is fitted into the mounting recess 1501af formed in the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501. By inserting metal pan screws (not shown) into through holes 1503b1 and 1503b2 formed in the wiring cover body 1503 and screwing them into the mounting holes 1501afb1 and 1501afb2 from the front to the rear of the wiring cover body 1503, respectively. 1503 is fixed to the mounting recess 1501af. As a result, the plurality of wirings are covered with the wiring cover body 1503 and cannot be touched.

  Subsequently, the peel paper of the conductive adhesive tape 1545c of the conductive elastic member 1545 is peeled off, and the conductive elastic member is formed on the back surface of the L-shaped circuit connection piece 1540d of the metal shield plate 1540 protruding from the back surface of the base body 1502. Attach (adhere) 1545 adhesive tape 1545c.

  When the peripheral control unit 1500 assembled in this way is attached to an attachment portion formed on the back side of a transparent synthetic resin box that houses the effect display device 1600 on the rear side of the game panel 1100 provided in the game board 5. When the peripheral control unit 1500 is viewed from the front, the left side of the peripheral control unit 1500 (the engaging portion 1502ca formed on the base body 1502 of the peripheral control unit 1500) is the back side of the transparent synthetic resin box. A transparent synthetic resin box that is inserted into a mounting groove that constitutes a mounting portion formed in the outer peripheral control unit 1500 and a metal pan screw (not shown) is inserted into through holes 1502eb1 and 1502eb2 formed in the base body 1502 of the peripheral control unit 1500 It fixes by screwing in toward the attachment hole which comprises the attachment part formed in the back surface side.

  The effect display device 1600 includes a frame-shaped metal frame, a metal back cover that covers the entire rear surface of the metal frame, and a transparent synthetic resin box. A frame-shaped metal frame accommodates a liquid crystal panel, a backlight, a drive circuit, and the like. The entire rear surface of the frame-shaped metal frame is closed and fixed by the metal back cover, so that the frame-shaped metal frame and the metal back cover are electrically connected, Housed in a transparent plastic box. Further, the effect display device 1600 is controlled by a peripheral control unit 1500 attached to the rear side of the effect display device 1600 and is electrically connected to a ground (GND) line such as a peripheral control board 1510 accommodated in the peripheral control unit 1500. Thus, the same ground (GND) is obtained. When the peripheral control unit 1500 is attached to the attachment portion formed on the back side of the transparent synthetic resin box of the effect display device 1600, the L-shaped circuit connection piece of the metal shield plate 1540 protruding from the back side of the base body 1502 1540d passes through a through-hole (not shown) formed on the back side of the transparent synthetic resin box, and as shown in FIG. 91, a conductive elastic member 1545 is applied to the metal back cover of the effect display device 1600. It will be in contact. At this time, the conductive elastic member 1545 is pushed in and crushed in the height direction (in the second embodiment, the height of the conductive elastic member 1545 is crushed by 1 mm to 1.5 mm), thereby causing dimensional tolerance and assembly error. The dimensional deviation can be absorbed by the conductive elastic member 1545. As a result, the metal shield plate 1540 of the peripheral control unit 1500 and the metal back cover of the effect display device 1600 are in an electrically and reliably connected state, and the peripheral control board accommodated in the peripheral control unit 1500 Since the same ground (GND) can be obtained by being electrically connected to a ground (GND) line such as 1510, the peripheral control unit 1500 (peripheral control board 1510, Peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and various substrates such as liquid crystal output substrate 1530) and peripheral of control unit 1500 (peripheral control substrate 1510, peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and various substrates such as liquid crystal output substrate 1530) can do. Therefore, the influence by electromagnetic wave noise can be reduced.

  The cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 in the peripheral control board box according to the second embodiment are formed by molding as a transparent non-conductive resin, and in the internal space of the cover body 1501 Various substrates such as the peripheral control substrate 1510, the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are attached to the predetermined positions together with the metal shield plate 1540, so that the shield plate 1540 is sandwiched between the cover body 1501 and the various substrates. When fixed, the metal shield plate 1540 is connected to the ground (GND) of various substrates. Further, the ground (GND) lines of the peripheral control board 1510, the peripheral data ROM board 1520, and the liquid crystal output board 1530 are electrically connected to the ground (GND) line of the power supply board 630 in the board unit 620 of the main body frame 4 as described above. Connected. For this reason, the noise (electromagnetic wave noise) intruding from the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 and the noise (electromagnetic wave noise) invading the effect display device 1600 are transferred to the substrate through the metal shield plate 1540. It is possible to form a “route through which noise is eliminated” that is guided to the ground (ground (GND) of various substrates) and removed. Thereby, it is not necessary to provide each type of substrate (including the power supply substrate 630) with a dedicated filter for removing such noise (electromagnetic wave noise), thereby reducing the cost of the various substrates (including the power supply substrate 630). Can contribute.

  Here, the arrangement of the plurality of circular ventilation holes 1501az formed in the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501, and the plurality of circular ventilation holes 1540az formed in the shield flat plate 1540a of the metal shield plate 1540. Will be described. As described above, the ventilation holes 1501az and 1540az having a plurality of circular shapes can air-cool the inner space of the cover body 1501 and also have a function of confirming whether or not there is fraud.

  Specifically, when the peripheral control unit 1500 is assembled as described above, as shown in FIG. 89, the plurality of circular ventilation holes 1501az and 1540az arranged on the right side of the FAN mounting recess 1501aa are the peripheral control board. The product number and model (or management number) printed on the surface of the control ROM 1510b included in the 1510, the state of the IC pins of the control ROM 1510b, and the contents silk-printed on the peripheral control board 1510 (for example, IC orientation, part number) In other words, the surface of the control ROM 1510b, the state of the IC pin, and the content printed on the peripheral control board 1510 are confirmed from multi-directional angles. So that the area is larger than the shape of the control ROM 1510b. It has been.

In other words, the distance dimension of the first predetermined height is formed larger than the distance dimension of the second predetermined height. This is a case where a large-scale production unit (an electrical drive source or drive mechanism capable of operating a movable production body and various sensors for detecting an origin position or an operation position) is arranged on the game board 5 in the depth direction. If there is a margin in the distance dimension, the distance dimension of the first predetermined height and the distance dimension of the second predetermined height may be configured as a distance dimension of the same predetermined height, The distance dimension of the predetermined height may be configured to be larger than the distance dimension of the first predetermined height. Even with this configuration, various electronic components that are easily affected by noise (electromagnetic wave noise) can be accommodated in the first space 1505a to take measures against electromagnetic wave noise, and the second space 1505b. By not containing various electronic components that generate heat in the interior, heat generated from various electronic components in the first space 1505a can be efficiently transmitted to the second space 1505b through the metal shield plate 1540.

At the position of the metal shield plate 1540 corresponding to the large area It may be configured to provide an opening in the shape.

  Further, in the second embodiment, when the wing portion of the air cooling fan FAN attached to the FAN attachment recess 1501aa rotates, the air in the inner space of the cover body 1501 is circulated through the wing portion by the rotation of the peripheral control unit 1500. By ejecting outward, the air from the outside of the peripheral control unit 1500 is accommodated in the ventilation holes 1501az formed in the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501 and the space between the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502. When taking in through a plurality of ventilation holes 1540az formed in the metal shield plate 1540, the flow velocity of the air flowing into each of the ventilation holes 1501az formed in the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501 can be kept small. Can be, but FAN mounting recess 1501a When the vane portion of the attachment is cooling fan FAN is rotated through the blade portion by the rotation may inhale air toward the peripheral control IC1510a to feed the air. In other words, the main purpose of the air cooling fan FAN may be to simply cool the peripheral control IC 1510a without air exchange in the space between the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502.

  Even in the noise countermeasure configuration using the peripheral control board box according to the second embodiment, the peripheral control board 1510 that comes into contact with the mounting faces (boss faces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. For the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side, a metal mask is placed on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510, and a squeegee (like a spatula) The surface of the peripheral control board 1510 (mounting surface) 1510x is placed in a reflow oven and the solder paste is dried by heat. However, the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 may be poured into a solder bath and soldered. . In this case, the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the front surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 abut the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. In order not to reduce the area and the electrical connectivity, the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is not partly raised. It needs to be uniform.

  For example, a copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is formed with a resist layer 1510xr that is partially coated with a resist solution and formed into a predetermined shape, The surface of the peripheral control board 1510 (mounting surface) is soldered to a region having a predetermined shape of the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4. Specifically, as “predetermined shape”, as shown in FIG. 86 (a), the resist is applied to the copper foils that are the surfaces of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510. A shape in which a plurality of circles having a predetermined width are concentrically formed (a shape in which a single circle having a predetermined width is formed concentrically), as shown in FIG. 86 (b), As shown in FIG. 86 (c), a rectangular shape having a predetermined width and a predetermined length is formed in the shape of a chrysanthemum arranged in a ring shape around the center of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4. A shape formed in a lattice shape composed of a directional line and a horizontal line (a shape in which a resist has a predetermined width and a plurality of lines are formed by being separated by a predetermined distance dimension, or a resist may be formed. May have a shape in which a plurality of lines having a predetermined width are formed apart from each other by a predetermined distance.) As shown in FIG. 86D, lines having a predetermined width are separated from each other by a predetermined distance. Then, a shape in which a plurality of right-upward lines are formed in a hatched shape (a shape in which a line having a predetermined width is spaced apart by a predetermined distance and a plurality of right-downward lines are formed in a hatched shape) is not shown. Can be mentioned as a collection of small circular shapes.

  In this way, a resist layer 1510xr is formed in which a part of the copper foil, which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510, is applied with a resist solution and formed into a predetermined shape. Since the surface of the control board 1510 (mounting surface) is soldered to a region having a predetermined shape of the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4, the surface of the peripheral control board 1510 (mounting surface) The amount of solder to be soldered to the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 can be suppressed (in other words, the surface of the peripheral control substrate 1510 (mounting surface) is applied as a predetermined shape by applying a resist solution. The amount of solder to be soldered to the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 Effect as long as the can demonstrate that it is possible to win). Accordingly, when the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is poured into the solder bath and soldered, the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is not soldered. The attachment can be made uniform so that it does not rise partially. The solder thus soldered includes the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a and the lands 1510rf1 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510. 1510rf4 is covered so as to be electrically connectable.

  It should be noted that a predetermined figure formed by such a resist is a land on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 that abuts the seat surface (head seat surface) of the pan portion of the metal pan screw. You may perform also with respect to the copper foil which is the surface of 1510rb1-1510rb4. The solder thus soldered electrically connects the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 and the seat surface (the seat surface of the head) of the pan portion of the metal pan screw. It is covered so that it can be connected. Further, when the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is poured into the solder bath and soldered, the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is applied with a resist solution. Thus, the thickness of the resist layer applied to the surfaces of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 may be uniform.

  Further, in the noise countermeasure configuration using the peripheral control board box according to the second embodiment, when the peripheral control board 1510 is fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a, a metal pan screw is used. The peripheral control board 1510 may be fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a through a metal washer such as a flat washer, a spring washer, and a toothed washer (also referred to as “chrysal washer”).

[Exposed Region of Part of Ground of Various Substrates of Peripheral Control Board Box According to Third Embodiment]
Here, the region ROP in which a part of the ground (GND) on the back surface (solder surface) of various substrates such as the peripheral control substrate 1510, the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is exposed will be described. The region ROP formed in part of the ground (GND) on the back surface (solder surface) of various substrates such as the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 has the same structure. The region ROP formed in a part of the ground (GND) on the back surface (solder surface) will be described. The region ROP formed in a part of the ground (GND) on the back surface (solder surface) of the peripheral control substrate 1510 is formed on the back surface (solder surface) of the peripheral control substrate 1510 as shown in FIGS. The peripheral control board 1510 is formed such that a part of the substrate ground (GND) (that is, the solid ground) formed on the copper foil surface 1510 yp of 1510 y is exposed in a shape larger than the front shape of the conductive elastic member 1507 for the substrate. A resist solution is applied onto the copper foil surface 1510yp of the back surface (solder surface) 1510y to form a back surface (solder surface) side resist layer 1510yr.

  It is also possible to employ a method using a through hole without exposing the solid ground as the region ROP. For example, as shown in FIGS. 95C and 95D, the region ROP on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board 1510 is electrically connected to the solid ground on the front surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510. A plurality of through-holes to be connected are arranged in each of the vertical direction and the horizontal direction, and this copper is formed so that lands are formed around each through-hole on the copper foil surface 1510yp of the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board 1510. A resist solution can be applied onto the foil surface 1510yp to form a back surface (solder surface) side resist layer 1510yr.

[Assembly Method of Peripheral Control Board Box According to Third Embodiment]
Since the assembly method of the peripheral control unit 1500 is basically the same as the assembly method of the peripheral control board box according to the second embodiment, the procedure for inserting the conductive elastic member for substrate 1507 described above will be described. The manufacturer operator attaches the peripheral control unit 1500 to a mounting portion formed on the back side of the transparent synthetic resin box that houses the effect display device 1600 behind the gaming panel 1100 provided in the gaming board 5. Then, through the serial numbers 1 to 11, the board conductive elastic member 1507 is inserted into the insertion port 1502az of the base body 1502 from the longitudinal direction and pushed in, and the peripheral control board 1510, the peripheral data ROM board 1520, and An operation of bringing the ground (GND) part of the back surface (solder surface) of various substrates such as the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 into contact with the exposed region ROP is performed.

  As described above, the effect display device 1600 includes a frame-shaped metal frame, a metal back cover that covers the entire rear surface of the metal frame, and a transparent synthetic resin box. A frame-shaped metal frame accommodates a liquid crystal panel, a backlight, a drive circuit, and the like. The entire rear surface of the frame-shaped metal frame is closed and fixed by the metal back cover, so that the frame-shaped metal frame and the metal back cover are electrically connected, Housed in a transparent plastic box. Further, as described above, the effect display device 1600 is controlled by the peripheral control unit 1500 attached to the rear side of itself, and is electrically connected to a ground (GND) line such as the peripheral control board 1510 accommodated in the peripheral control unit 1500. Are connected to the same ground (GND).

  When the peripheral control unit 1500 is attached to the attachment portion formed on the back side of the transparent synthetic resin box of the effect display device 1600, the L-shaped circuit connection piece of the metal shield plate 1540 protruding from the back side of the base body 1502 1540d passes through a through-hole (not shown) formed on the back side of the transparent synthetic resin box, and is applied to the metal back cover of the effect display device 1600 via the conductive elastic member 1545 as shown in FIG. It will be in contact. At this time, the conductive elastic member 1545 is pushed and crushed in the height direction (in the third embodiment, the height of the conductive elastic member 1545 is crushed by 1 mm to 1.5 mm), thereby causing a dimensional tolerance or an assembly error. The dimensional deviation can be absorbed by the conductive elastic member 1545. As a result, the metal shield plate 1540 of the peripheral control unit 1500 and the metal back cover of the effect display device 1600 are in an electrically and reliably connected state, and the peripheral control board accommodated in the peripheral control unit 1500 The same ground (GND) can be obtained by being electrically connected to a ground (GND) line such as 1510.

  In addition, the conductive for each substrate, one of which is in contact with the region ROP where a part of the ground (GND) of the back surface (solder surface) of various substrates such as the peripheral control substrate 1510, the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is exposed. The other of the elastic elastic members 1507 passes through a not-shown through-hole formed on the back side of the corresponding transparent synthetic resin box, and contacts the metal back cover of the effect display device 1600 as shown in FIG. It will be in contact. At this time, the conductive elastic member 1507 for the substrate is pushed and crushed in the height direction (in the third embodiment, the height of the conductive elastic member 1507 for the substrate is crushed by 1 mm to 1.5 mm), thereby causing a dimensional tolerance. Further, the dimensional deviation due to the assembly error can be absorbed by the conductive elastic member 1507 for the substrate. As a result, the state in which the external force is applied in the longitudinal direction of the conductive elastic member for substrate 1507 is maintained, and as a repulsive force, the conductive elastic member for substrate 1507 has the peripheral control substrate 1510 and the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520. , And a contact surface of the back surface (solder surface) of various substrates such as the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 with a region ROP where a part of the ground (GND) is exposed, and a contact surface with the metal back cover of the effect display device 1600; In other words, the electrical connection is maintained, and the ground (on the solder surface) of various substrates such as the peripheral control substrate 1510, the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is ground ( GND) and the metal back cover of the effect display device 1600 are in a state of being securely connected to each other, and the peripheral control unit 1500 accommodates in the peripheral control unit 1500. Ground, such as a substrate 1510 (GND) line and is electrically connected, can be the same ground (GND). For this reason, in addition to the metal shield plate 1540, noise (electromagnetic wave noise) that has entered from the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 and noise that has entered the effect display device 1600 are further reduced. Through the conductive elastic member 1507 for the substrate, a “route through which noise is eliminated” can be formed in which it is guided to the substrate ground (ground (GND) of various substrates) and removed. Thereby, it is not necessary to provide each type of substrate (including the power supply substrate 630) with a dedicated filter for removing such noise (electromagnetic wave noise), thereby reducing the cost of the various substrates (including the power supply substrate 630). Can contribute.

  Even in the noise countermeasure configuration using the peripheral control board box according to the third embodiment, the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the front surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 and the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510. Each of the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 is soldered so that the copper foil as the surface thereof is not exposed, but abuts against the seat surface (the seat surface of the head) of the pan portion of the metal pan screw. Mounting surfaces (bosses) of mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 that are respectively soldered to the copper foils that are the surfaces of the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 and are formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. Surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 in contact with the surface) The copper foil is a surface 510x side of the land 1510rf1~1510rf4 may be covered by applying a resist solution. The copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control substrate 1510 is applied together with the entire surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control substrate 1510 being applied with a resist solution. The Even with this configuration, metal pan-head screws are inserted into the through holes 1510r1 to 1510r4 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 toward the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. By fixing the peripheral control board 1510 to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a by screwing, the ground (GND) of the peripheral control board 1510 and the cover body 1501 are electrically connected via a metal pan screw. State. Further, copper which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 in contact with the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. By coating the foil with a resist solution and covering it, the thickness of the resist layer applied to the surfaces of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 can be made uniform. As a result, the resist layers in the portions corresponding to the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 have the same thickness, and thus the through holes 1510r1 formed in the peripheral control board 1510. When the peripheral control board 1510 is fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a by inserting a metal pan-head screw into ~ 1510r4 and screwing it toward the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. Further, distortion of the peripheral control board 1510 can be prevented.

  Further, in the third embodiment, when the wing portion of the air cooling fan FAN attached to the FAN attachment recess 1501aa rotates, the air in the inner space of the cover body 1501 passes through the wing portion by this rotation, and the peripheral control unit 1500 By ejecting outward, the air from the outside of the peripheral control unit 1500 is accommodated in the ventilation holes 1501az formed in the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501 and the space between the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502. When taking in through a plurality of ventilation holes 1540az formed in the metal shield plate 1540, the flow velocity of the air flowing into each of the ventilation holes 1501az formed in the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501 can be kept small. Can be, but FAN mounting recess 1501a When the vane portion of the attachment is cooling fan FAN is rotated through the blade portion by the rotation may inhale air toward the peripheral control IC1510a to feed the air. In other words, the main purpose of the air cooling fan FAN may be to simply cool the peripheral control IC 1510a without air exchange in the space between the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502.

  Also in the configuration for noise suppression by the peripheral control board box according to the third embodiment, the peripheral control board 1510 that contacts the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. For the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side, a metal mask is placed on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510, and a squeegee (like a spatula) The surface of the peripheral control board 1510 (mounting surface) 1510x is placed in a reflow oven and the solder paste is dried by heat. However, the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 may be poured into a solder bath and soldered. . In this case, the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the front surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 abut the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. In order not to reduce the area and the electrical connectivity, the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is not partly raised. It needs to be uniform.

  For example, a copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is formed with a resist layer 1510xr that is partially coated with a resist solution and formed into a predetermined shape, The surface of the peripheral control board 1510 (mounting surface) is soldered to a region having a predetermined shape of the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4. Specifically, as “predetermined shape”, as shown in FIG. 86 (a), the resist is applied to the copper foils that are the surfaces of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510. A shape in which a plurality of circles having a predetermined width are concentrically formed (a shape in which a single circle having a predetermined width is formed concentrically), as shown in FIG. 86 (b), As shown in FIG. 86 (c), a rectangular shape having a predetermined width and a predetermined length is formed in the shape of a chrysanthemum arranged in a ring shape around the center of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4. A shape formed in a lattice shape composed of a directional line and a horizontal line (a shape in which a resist has a predetermined width and a plurality of lines are formed by being separated by a predetermined distance dimension, or a resist may be formed. May have a shape in which a plurality of lines having a predetermined width are formed apart from each other by a predetermined distance.) As shown in FIG. 86D, lines having a predetermined width are separated from each other by a predetermined distance. Then, a shape in which a plurality of right-upward lines are formed in a hatched shape (a shape in which a line having a predetermined width is spaced apart by a predetermined distance and a plurality of right-downward lines are formed in a hatched shape) is not shown. Can be mentioned as a collection of small circular shapes.

  In this way, a resist layer 1510xr is formed in which a part of the copper foil, which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510, is applied with a resist solution and formed into a predetermined shape. Since the surface of the control board 1510 (mounting surface) is soldered to a region having a predetermined shape of the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4, the surface of the peripheral control board 1510 (mounting surface) The amount of solder to be soldered to the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 can be suppressed (in other words, the surface of the peripheral control substrate 1510 (mounting surface) is applied as a predetermined shape by applying a resist solution. The amount of solder to be soldered to the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 Effect as long as the can demonstrate that it is possible to win). Accordingly, when the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is poured into the solder bath and soldered, the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is not soldered. The attachment can be made uniform so that it does not rise partially. The solder thus soldered includes the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a and the lands 1510rf1 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510. 1510rf4 is covered so as to be electrically connectable.

  It should be noted that a predetermined figure formed by such a resist is a land on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 that abuts the seat surface (head seat surface) of the pan portion of the metal pan screw. You may perform also with respect to the copper foil which is the surface of 1510rb1-1510rb4. The solder thus soldered electrically connects the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 and the seat surface (the seat surface of the head) of the pan portion of the metal pan screw. It is covered so that it can be connected. Further, when the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is poured into the solder bath and soldered, the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is applied with a resist solution. Thus, the thickness of the resist layer applied to the surfaces of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 may be uniform.

  Also, in the configuration of noise countermeasures by the peripheral control board box according to the third embodiment, when the peripheral control board 1510 is fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a, a metal pan screw is used. The peripheral control board 1510 may be fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a through a metal washer such as a flat washer, a spring washer, and a toothed washer (also referred to as “chrysal washer”).

  In addition, in the configuration for noise suppression by the peripheral control board box according to the third embodiment, the entire rear surface of the frame-shaped metal frame is closed and fixed by the metal back cover, thereby fixing the frame-shaped metal frame. And the metal back cover are electrically connected and accommodated in a transparent synthetic resin box, and the transparent synthetic resin box and the base body 1502 are molded separately. However, the base body 1502 may be integrally formed in this transparent synthetic resin box.

As a result, the land 1520rb2 formed on the back surface (solder surface) side of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and the surface of the L-shaped mounting piece 1555b3 of the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555 contact each other. It will be in the state. That is, the L-shaped attachment piece 1555b3 of the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555 is electrically connected to the land 1520rb2 formed on the back surface (solder surface) side of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520. As a result, the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555 is connected to the ground (GND) of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520.

  Further, a metal pan screw (not shown) is inserted into the through hole 1502ag4 of the mounting boss 1502af4 formed on the front surface side of the base flat plate 1502a, and passes through the through hole 1520r3 of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a. It fixes by screwing in the mounting boss hole 1501ah4 to be formed. Further, a metal pan screw (not shown) is inserted into a through hole 1502ag5 of a mounting boss 1502af5 formed on the front surface side of the base flat plate 1502a, and formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a through the through hole 1530r2 of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530.

As a result, the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555 is connected to the ground (GND) of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530.

  With this second fixing method, when a metal pan screw (not shown) is inserted into and fixed to the through holes 1502ag1 to 1502ag6 of the mounting bosses 1502af1 to 1502af6 formed on the surface side of the base flat plate 1502a, the metal substrate surface is fixed. The conductive elastic member 1545 attached (adhered) to the (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 is pressed against and brought into contact with the front surface side of the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555. As a result, the metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 and the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555 are electrically connected. At this time, the conductive elastic member 1545 is pushed and crushed in the height direction (in the fourth embodiment, the height of the conductive elastic member 1545 is crushed by 1 mm to 1.5 mm), thereby causing dimensional tolerances and assembly errors.

Screw in. When the metal one-way screw is screwed in, the tip surface of the metal anchor rivet spreads outward at the base-side sealing portion 1502ea, thereby forming the cover-side sealing portion 1501ea formed on the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502. The base side sealing portion 1502ea to be sealed is in a sealed state.

  In such a sealed state, the cover side walls 1501b to 1501e of the cover body 1501 are fitted inside the base side walls 1502b to 1502e of the base body 1502 and inscribed (surface contact).

  In order to release such a sealed state, the cover side sealing portion 1501ea formed on the cover body 1501 has to be destroyed with a tool.

Since the unit 560 is arranged, the game balls are rubbed against each other in the ball path constituted by these units, and are charged and electrostatically discharged to become a noise source. For this reason, in the vicinity of the game board 5 where the ball path is formed, there is an environment that is affected by noise (electromagnetic wave noise) due to electrostatic discharge from the game ball. Pachinko machines 1 are lined up opposite the island facilities in the game hall. Thus, the surroundings of the game board 5 are in an environment that is extremely susceptible to noise (electromagnetic wave noise). Therefore, in the fourth embodiment, as described above, the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 are formed by being transparently molded as a non-conductive resin, and the inside of the cover body 1501 In the space, various substrates such as a peripheral control substrate 1510, a peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and a liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are made of a metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 and a metal substrate rear surface (solder surface) side. By being attached while being sandwiched by the shield plate 1555, the metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 and the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555 are grounded (GND) of various substrates. The configuration that is electrically connected to is adopted. In the fourth embodiment, the peripheral control board 1510, the peripheral data ROM board 1520, and the ground (GND) line of the liquid crystal output board 1530 are connected to the power supply board 630 in the board unit 620 of the main body frame 4 as described above. The same ground (GND) is adopted by electrically connecting to the other ground (GND) line.

  Accordingly, the cover body 1501 of the peripheral control unit 1500 attached to the rear side of the game panel 1100 of the game board 5 (the rear side of the effect display device 1600 attached to the rear surface of the back box 3010 of the back unit 3000), and the base Noise (electromagnetic wave noise) that has entered from the body 1502 is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 and the peripheral data via the metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 and the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555. It can be removed by being guided to the ground (GND) of various substrates such as the ROM substrate 1520 and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530. In other words, the cover body 1501 of the peripheral control unit 1500 attached to the rear side of the game panel 1100 of the game board 5 (the rear side of the effect display device 1600 attached to the rear surface of the back box 3010 of the back unit 3000), and the base Noise (electromagnetic wave noise) intruding from the body 1502 is transferred to the substrate ground (ground of various substrates) via the metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 and the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555. (GND)) can be removed.

  In the fourth embodiment, various substrates such as the peripheral control substrate 1510, the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are made of a metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540, and a metal substrate. In a state of being sandwiched between the back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555 and attached to a predetermined position on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a, the surfaces of the various substrates (surfaces facing the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a) and the cover flat plate 1501a A space having a distance of a predetermined height (14.8 mm in the fourth embodiment) is formed between the back surface and the back surface, and a metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 is formed in this space. Are arranged to form two spaces, and these two spaces are the surfaces of various substrates (surfaces facing the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a). A first space having a distance of a first predetermined height (12 mm in the fourth embodiment) between the metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 and the back surface of the shield flat plate 1540a; A distance distance of a second predetermined height between the surface of the shield flat plate 1540a of the metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 and the back surface of the cover flat plate 1501a (1.6 mm in the fourth embodiment). And a second space having In other words, the distance dimension of the first predetermined height is formed larger than the distance dimension of the second predetermined height. This is a case where a large-scale production unit (an electrical drive source or drive mechanism capable of operating a movable production body and various sensors for detecting an origin position or an operation position) is arranged on the game board 5 in the depth direction. If there is a margin in the distance dimension, the distance dimension of the first predetermined height and the distance dimension of the second predetermined height may be configured as a distance dimension of the same predetermined height, The distance dimension of the predetermined height may be configured to be larger than the distance dimension of the first predetermined height. Even with this configuration, it is possible to take countermeasures against electromagnetic wave noise by accommodating various electronic components that are easily affected by noise (electromagnetic wave noise) in the first space, and in the second space. By not accommodating various electronic components that generate heat, heat generated from various electronic components in the first space is efficiently transferred to the second space via the metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540. I can tell you well.

[Around the through holes of various substrates of the peripheral control substrate box according to the fourth embodiment]
Here, the periphery of the through hole formed in the various substrates of the peripheral control substrate box according to the fourth embodiment will be described. The surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 around the through holes 1510r1 and 1510r4 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 has a metal board surface (mounting surface) side as shown in FIG. Lands 1510rf1 and 1510rf4 that are in contact with and electrically connected to the back surfaces of the L-shaped mounting pieces 1540c1 and 1540c2 of the shield plate 1540 are formed. Further, the surface (mounting surface) 1520x of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 around the through hole 1520r4 formed in the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 has a metal substrate surface (mounting surface) as shown in FIG. ) A land 1520rf4 that is in contact with and electrically connected to the back surface of the L-shaped mounting piece 1540b1 of the side shield plate 1540 is formed. Further, the surface (mounting surface) 1530x of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 around the through hole 1530r1 formed in the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is on the metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side as shown in FIG. A land 1530rf1 is formed which is in contact with and electrically connected to the back surface of the L-shaped mounting piece 1540b2 of the shield plate 1540.

  These lands 1510rf1, 1510rf4, 1520rf4, and 1530rf1 are in contact with and electrically connected to the back surfaces of the L-shaped mounting pieces 1540c1, 1540c2, 1540b1, and 1540b2 of the metal board surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540. Therefore, a “noise elimination route” is formed in which noise (electromagnetic wave noise) that has entered the metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 flows to the substrate ground (ground (GND) of various substrates). The surface of the L-shaped mounting pieces 1540c1, 1540c2, 1540b1, and 1540b2 of the metal board surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 are mounting boss holes 1501ag1, 1501ag4, and 1501ah2 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. , 1501am1 contact surfaces (boss surfaces) respectively. For this reason, noise (electromagnetic wave noise) L-shaped mounting piece 1540c1 of the metal board surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 from the mounting boss holes 1501ag1, 1501ag4, 1501ah2, 1501am1 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. , 1540c2, 1540b1, 1540b2, and the land 1510rf1, 1510rf4, 1520rf4, 1530rf1, the intruding noise (electromagnetic wave noise) flows to the substrate ground (grounds (GND) of various substrates).

  Further, the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 around the through holes 1510r2 and 1510r3 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 is formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a as shown in FIG. 99 (b). Foil removal regions NR5 and NR6 having a circular shape slightly larger than the outer circle of the mounting boss holes 1501ag2 and 1501ag3 formed are formed, and the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag2 and 1501ag3 are the foil extraction region NR5. , NR6 respectively. Further, the surface (mounting surface) 1520x of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 around the through holes 1520r1, 1520r2 and 1520r3 formed in the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 has a cover flat plate 1501a as shown in FIG. Foil removal regions NR7, NR8, NR9 having a circular shape slightly larger than the outer circle of the mounting boss holes 1501ah3, 1501ah1, 1501ah4 formed on the back side are formed, and mounting of the mounting boss holes 1501ah3, 1501ah1, 1501ah4 The surfaces (boss surfaces) are in contact with the foil removal regions NR7, NR8, and NR9, respectively. Further, the surface (mounting surface) 1530x of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 around the through holes 1530r2, 1530r3, 1530r4 formed in the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a as shown in FIG. 99 (b). Foil removal regions NR10, NR11, NR12 having a circular shape that is slightly larger than the outer circle of the mounting boss holes 1501am3, 1501am2, 1501am4 formed on the mounting boss holes 1501am3, 1501am2, 1501am4 The boss surface is in contact with the foil removal regions NR10, NR11, NR12, respectively.

  These foil removal regions NR5 to NR12 prevent intrusion of noise (electromagnetic wave noise) from the mounting boss holes 1501ag2, 1501ag3, 1501ah3, 1501ah1, 1501ah4, 1501am3, 1501am2, 1501am4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. Therefore, the peripheral control board 1510, the peripheral data ROM board 1520, and the liquid crystal output board 1530 are isolated from the ground (GND) of various boards. In other words, noise (electromagnetic wave noise) is controlled from the mounting boss holes 1501ag2, 1501ag3, 1501ah3, 1501ah1, 1501ah1, 1501am3, 1501am2, and 1501am4 formed on the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a through the foil removal regions NR5 to NR12. A “noise-free route” that cannot enter the solid ground of various substrates such as the substrate 1510, the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is formed.

  On the other hand, the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board 1510 around the through-holes 1510r1 and 1510r4 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 has a metal substrate back surface as shown in FIG. (Solder surface) Lands 1510rb1 and 1510rb4 which are in contact with and electrically connected to the surfaces of the L-shaped mounting pieces 1555b1 and 1555b2 of the side shield plate 1555 are formed. Further, the back surface (solder surface) 1520y of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 around the through-hole 1520r2 formed in the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 has a metal substrate back surface (solder surface) as shown in FIG. ) Land 1520rb2 that is in contact with and electrically connected to the surface of the L-shaped mounting piece 1555b3 of the side shield plate 1555 is formed. Further, the back surface (solder surface) 1530y of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 around the through-hole 1530r3 formed in the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 has a metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side as shown in FIG. A land 1530rb3 that is in contact with and electrically connected to the surface of the L-shaped mounting piece 1555b4 of the shield plate 1555 is formed.

  These lands 1510 rb 1, 1510 rb 4, 1520 rb 2, and 1530 rb 3 are in contact with and electrically connected to the surfaces of the L-shaped mounting pieces 1555 b 1, 1555 b 2, 1555 b 3, and 1555 b 4 of the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555. Therefore, a “route through which noise is removed” is formed, in which noise (electromagnetic wave noise) that has entered the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555 flows to the substrate ground (ground (GND) of various substrates). Note that the back surfaces of the L-shaped mounting pieces 1555b1, 1555b2, 1555b3, and 1555b4 of the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555 are mounting bosses 1502af1, 1502af2, 1502af3 formed on the front surface side of the base flat plate 1502a. The mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) 1502af6 abut each other. For this reason, noise (electromagnetic wave noise) from the mounting bosses 1502af1, 1502af2, 1502af3, and 1502af6 formed on the front surface side of the base flat plate 1502a leads to an L-shaped mounting piece 1555b1 of the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555. Even if they enter 1555b2, 1555b3, 1555b4, and lands 1510rb1, 1510rb4, 1520rb2, 1530rb3, the intruding noise (electromagnetic wave noise) flows to the substrate ground (grounds (GND) of various substrates).

  Further, as shown in FIG. 100B, a metal pan screw (not shown) is provided on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the peripheral control board 1510 around the through holes 1510r2 and 1510r3 formed in the peripheral control board 1510. Lands 1510rb2 and 1510rb3 that are directly inserted and screwed are formed, and screw fixing instruction marks DTH5 and DTH6 surrounding the lands 1510rb2 and 1510rb3 with solid white solid lines are printed as silk printing. Further, as shown in FIG. 100 (b), a metal pan (not shown) is formed on the back surface (solder surface) 1520y of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 around the through holes 1520r1 and 1520r4 formed in the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520. Lands 1520rb1 and 1520rb4 into which screws are directly inserted are formed, and screw fixing instruction marks DTH1 and DTH2 surrounding the lands 1520rb1 and 1520rb4 with solid white solid lines are printed as silk printing. Further, as shown in FIG. 100B, a metal pan screw (not shown) is provided on the back surface (solder surface) 1530y of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 around the through holes 1530r1 and 1530r4 formed in the liquid crystal output substrate 1530. Lands 1530rb1 and 1530rb4 that are directly inserted and screwed are formed, and screw fixing instruction marks DTH3 and DTH4 surrounding the lands 1530rb1 and 1530rb4 with solid white solid lines are printed as silk printing.

  Note that even if a metal pan-head screw (not shown) is directly inserted into the through-holes 1510r2 and 1510r3 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 and screwed in, the white solid line portions of the screw fixing instruction marks DTH5 and DTH6 Although the region close to the through holes 1510r2 and 1510r3 overlaps the head of a metal pan screw (not shown), the outer peripheral portion of the white solid line region of the screw fixing instruction marks DTH5 and DTH6 has a metal pan (not shown). By forming the screw head larger than the outline of the screw head, a solid white solid line of the screw fixing instruction marks DTH5 and DTH6 makes a metal pan screw head (not shown) stand out. It is possible to contribute to the suppression of mistakes (inadvertent mistakes) in which you insert a pan-head screw and forget to fix it. It has become to so that. Further, even if a metal pan-head screw (not shown) is directly inserted and screwed into the through holes 1520r1 and 1520r4 formed in the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, the white solid line area of the screw fixing instruction marks DTH1 and DTH2 Of these, although the region close to the through holes 1520r1 and 1520r4 overlaps the head of the metal pan screw (not shown), the outer peripheral portion of the white solid line region of the screw fixing instruction marks DTH1 and DTH2 is made of metal (not shown). Since it is formed larger than the outline of the head of the pan head screw, the head of the metal pan head screw (not shown) is conspicuous by the solid white solid line of the screw fixing instruction marks DTH1, DTH2. This contributes to the suppression of mistakes (inadvertent mistakes) of inserting and fixing the pan-head screws. It has to be able to bet. Further, even if a metal pan-head screw (not shown) is directly inserted and screwed into the through holes 1530r1 and 1530r4 formed in the liquid crystal output substrate 1530, the screw fixing instruction marks DTH3 and DTH4 of the solid white line portion of the region Although the region close to the through holes 1530r1 and 1530r4 overlaps the head of a metal pan screw (not shown), the outer peripheral portion of the white solid line region of the screw fixing instruction marks DTH1 and DTH2 has a metal pan (not shown). By forming the screw head larger than the outline of the screw head, a solid white solid line of the screw fixing instruction marks DTH3 and DTH4 makes a metal pan screw head (not shown) stand out. It is possible to contribute to the suppression of mistakes (inadvertent mistakes) in which you insert a pan-head screw and forget to fix it. It has become to so that.

  Further, a surface (mounting surface) 1520x of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 around the through hole 1520r3 formed in the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 is formed on the surface side of the base flat plate 1502a as shown in FIG. A foil removal region NR13 having a shape that is slightly larger than the outer circle of the mounting boss 1502af4 is formed, and the attachment surface (boss surface) of the attachment boss 1502af4 is in contact with the foil removal region NR13. Further, a surface (mounting surface) 1520x of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 around the through hole 1530r2 formed in the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is formed on the surface side of the base flat plate 1502a as shown in FIG. A foil removal region NR14 having a circular shape that is slightly larger than the outer circle of the attachment boss 1502af5 is formed, and the attachment surface (boss surface) of the attachment boss 1502af5 is in contact with the foil removal region NR14.

  These foil removal regions NR13 and NR14 are connected to the ground (GND) of various substrates so that noise (electromagnetic wave noise) can be prevented from entering from the mounting bosses 1502af4 and 1502af5 formed on the surface side of the base flat plate 1502a. Isolated from In other words, noise (electromagnetic wave noise) passes from the mounting bosses 1502af4 and 1502af5 formed on the surface side of the base flat plate 1502a to the solid ground of the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 via the foil removal regions NR13 and NR14. A “route through which noise cannot escape” is formed which cannot be invaded.

  As described above, the screw fixing instruction marks DTH1 to DTH6 surrounded by the solid white solid line are respectively printed as silk printing, and the through holes 1520r1 and 1520r4 formed in the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 and the through holes formed in the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are formed. The holes 1530r1 and 1530r4 and the through-holes 1510r2 and 1510r3 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 are through-holes that are fixed to the cover body 1501 by directly inserting and screwing metal pan screws (not shown). On the other hand, the through holes 1510r1 and 1510r4 formed in the peripheral control board 1510 in which the screw fixing instruction mark is not printed at all as silk printing, the through holes 1520r2 and 1520r3 formed in the peripheral data ROM board 1520, and the liquid crystal output The through holes 1530r2 and 1530r3 formed in the substrate 1530 are formed by inserting metal pan screws (not shown) into the through holes 1502ag1 to 1502ag of the mounting bosses 1502af1 to 1502af6 formed on the surface side of the base flat plate 1502a of the base body 1502. When the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502 are fixed by screwing, the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting bosses 1502af1 to 1502af6 formed on the surface side of the base flat plate 1502a of the base body 1501, and the cover flat plate of the cover body 1501 150 The mounting surface of the mounting boss hole 1501ag1,1501ag4,1501ah1,1501ah4,1501am3,1501am2 formed on the back side of a with (a boss surface), a through hole is fixed fastened together is sandwiched.

This means that the metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 and the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555 are electrically connected by the conductive elastic member 1545 described above. Because you can.

  In this configuration, the L-shaped mounting pieces 1540c1, 1540c2, 1540b1, and 1540b2 of the metal board surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 include the peripheral control board 1510, the peripheral data ROM board 1520, and It is configured not to come into contact with various substrates such as the liquid crystal output substrate 1530. Further, the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555 has through holes formed in the L-shaped mounting pieces 1540c1, 1540c2, 1540b1, and 1540b2 of the metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540, respectively. Through holes are formed at positions corresponding to the holes 1540c1a, 1540c2a, 1540b1a, and 1540b2a, respectively. The base body 1502 corresponds to the through holes 1540c1a, 1540c2a, 1540b1a, and 1540b2a formed in the L-shaped mounting pieces 1540c1, 1540c2, 1540b1, and 1540b2 of the metal board surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540, respectively. Through-holes are respectively formed at the positions to be performed. Further, on the back surface side of the cover body 1501, through holes 1540c1a, 1540c2a, 1540b1a formed in the L-shaped mounting pieces 1540c1, 1540c2, 1540b1, 1540b2 of the metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540, respectively. Screw holes are formed at positions corresponding to 1540b2a. As a result, the L-shaped mounting pieces 1540c1, 1540c2, 1540b1, and 1540b2 of the metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 are brought into contact with the surface of the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555. The cover body in a state (that is, a state in which the electrical connectivity between the metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 and the metal substrate back surface (solder surface) side shield plate 1555 can be improved) Screw holes formed on the back side of the cover body 1501 by inserting metal pan screws (not shown) into the through holes formed in the base body 1502 so as to be sandwiched and fixed between the 1501 and the base body 1502 It can be fixed by screwing it toward each.

  Further, in the fourth embodiment, when the wing portion of the air cooling fan FAN attached to the FAN attachment recess 1501aa rotates, the air in the inner space of the cover body 1501 is rotated by the rotation of the peripheral control unit 1500 via the wing portion. By ejecting outward, the air from the outside of the peripheral control unit 1500 is accommodated in the ventilation holes 1501az formed in the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501 and the space between the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502. Air that flows into each of the plurality of ventilation holes 1501az formed in the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501 when taking in through the plurality of ventilation holes 1540az formed in the metal substrate surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 The flow velocity of the can be kept small, but FA When the vane portion of the cooling fan FAN attached to the mounting recess 1501aa is rotated through the blade portion by the rotation may inhale air toward the peripheral control IC1510a to feed the air. In other words, the main purpose of the air cooling fan FAN may be to simply cool the peripheral control IC 1510a without air exchange in the space between the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502.

  Also, in the noise countermeasure configuration by the peripheral control board box according to the fourth embodiment, the metal board surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 is in contact with the back surfaces of the L-shaped mounting pieces 1540c1 and 1540c2 (FIG. 99). For the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 and 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 shown in a), a metal mask is placed on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510. The solder paste is spread on the metal mask using a squeegee (such as a spatula) to apply it from the hole formed in the metal mask, and the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510 is placed in a reflow furnace and heated. Although the solder paste is dried by the soldering, the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is poured into the solder bath to hang the solder paste. It may be attached. In this case, the lands 1510rf1 and 1510rf4 on the front surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 and the back surfaces of the L-shaped mounting pieces 1540c1 and 1540c2 of the metal board surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 The copper foil, which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 and 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510, is not partially raised so that the contact area is not reduced and the electrical connectivity is not deteriorated. It is necessary to make it uniform.

  For example, a copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 and 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is formed with a resist layer 1510xr that is partially coated with a resist solution and formed into a predetermined shape, The surface of the peripheral control board 1510 (mounting surface) is soldered to a region having a predetermined shape of the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 and 1510rf4. Specifically, as “predetermined shape”, as shown in FIG. 86A, resist is applied to the copper foils that are the surfaces of lands 1510rf1 and 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 A shape in which a plurality of circles having a predetermined width are concentrically formed (a shape in which a single circle having a predetermined width is formed concentrically), as shown in FIG. 86 (b), A rectangular shape having a predetermined width and a predetermined length is formed in the shape of a chrysanthemum arranged in a ring shape around the lands 1510rf1 and 1510rf4, as shown in FIG. A shape formed in a lattice shape composed of a directional line and a horizontal line (a shape in which a resist has a predetermined width and a plurality of lines are formed by being separated by a predetermined distance dimension, or a resist may be formed. May have a shape in which a plurality of lines having a predetermined width are formed apart from each other by a predetermined distance.) As shown in FIG. 86D, lines having a predetermined width are separated from each other by a predetermined distance. Then, a shape in which a plurality of right-upward lines are formed in a hatched shape (a shape in which a line having a predetermined width is spaced apart by a predetermined distance and a plurality of right-downward lines are formed in a hatched shape) is not shown. Can be mentioned as a collection of small circular shapes.

  In this way, a resist layer 1510xr formed in a predetermined shape is formed by coating a part of the copper foil, which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 and 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510, with the resist solution. Since the surface of the control board 1510 (mounting surface) is soldered to a region having a predetermined shape of the copper foil, which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 and 1510rf4, the surface of the peripheral control board 1510 (mounting surface) The amount of solder to be soldered to the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 and 1510rf4 can be suppressed (in other words, the surface of the peripheral control board 1510 (mounting surface) is applied as a predetermined shape by applying a resist solution. The amount of solder to be soldered to the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 and 1510rf4 Effect as long as the can demonstrate that it is possible to win). Thus, when the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is poured into the solder bath and soldered, the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 and 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is not soldered. The attachment can be made uniform so that it does not rise partially. The solder thus soldered includes the back surface of the L-shaped mounting pieces 1540c1 and 1540c2 of the metal board surface (mounting surface) side shield plate 1540 and the land 1510rf1 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510. 1510rf4 so as to be electrically connectable.

  A predetermined figure formed by such a resist may also be applied to the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510. Also, when the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is poured into a solder bath and soldered, the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 and 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is applied with a resist solution. Thus, the thickness of the resist layer applied to the surfaces of the lands 1510rf1 and 1510rf4 may be made uniform.

  Also, in the configuration of noise countermeasures by the peripheral control board box according to the fourth embodiment, when the peripheral control board 1510 is fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a, a metal pan screw is used. The peripheral control board 1510 may be fixed to the back side of the cover flat plate 1501a through a metal washer such as a flat washer, a spring washer, and a toothed washer (also referred to as “chrysal washer”).

  Further, in the noise countermeasure configuration by the peripheral control board box according to the fourth embodiment, the entire rear surface of the frame-shaped metal frame is closed and fixed by the metal back cover, thereby fixing the frame-shaped metal frame. And the metal back cover are electrically connected and accommodated in a transparent synthetic resin box, and the transparent synthetic resin box and the base body 1502 are molded separately. However, the base body 1502 may be integrally formed in this transparent synthetic resin box.

[Contrast between Noise Countermeasure Configuration by Peripheral Control Board Box According to First Embodiment and Noise Countermeasure Configuration by Peripheral Control Board Box According to Fifth Embodiment]
In the configuration for noise suppression by the peripheral control board box according to the first embodiment, as described above, in addition to the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502, the wiring cover body 1503 is all made of polycarbonate with carbon as described above. It is configured as a conductive resin contained, and various substrates such as a peripheral control substrate 1510, a peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and a liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are formed on a metal plate on the back side of the cover body 1501 (cover flat plate 1501a). When fixed by screws, they are configured to be electrically connected to the ground (GND) of these various substrates to be the same ground (GND).

  On the other hand, in the configuration of the noise countermeasures by the peripheral control board box according to the fifth embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 101 and 102, the rear is opened and the box shape is longer in the left-right direction than in the up-down direction. Peripheral control capable of controlling the progress of the production based on commands from the main control board 1310 of the main control unit 1300 that controls the progress of the game and the cover body 1501 that is made of a transparent non-conductive resin. A substrate 1510, a peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 electrically connected to the peripheral control substrate 1510, a liquid crystal output substrate 1530 electrically connected to the peripheral control substrate 1510, and a transparent non-conductive covering the opening of the cover body 1501. And a base body 1502 that is molded from a compatible resin. Various substrates such as a peripheral control board 1510, a peripheral data ROM board 1520, and a liquid crystal output board 1530 are attached at predetermined positions in the internal space of the cover body 1501, and the opening of the cover body 1501 is closed by the base body 1502. Thus, a peripheral control board box 1505 (sealed board box) is configured by the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502.

  In the noise countermeasure configuration by the peripheral control board box according to the fifth embodiment, in addition to the fact that the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 are configured as a transparent non-conductive resin, T The substrate conductive elastic member 1508 is fitted into the back side of the base flat plate 1502a so that a part of the substrate-shaped conductive elastic member 1508 having a letter shape protrudes from the back surface of the base body 1502, and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 The region ROP in which a part of the ground (GND) is exposed is provided on the back surface (solder surface) side of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530, and the ground (GND) test pad of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is the liquid crystal output substrate 1530. The probe is in contact with the test pad on the cover body 1501 and on the surface (mounting surface) side. It constitutes a difference of the noise countermeasure in that the opening is formed by the peripheral control board box according to the first embodiment that.

[Base Body of Peripheral Control Board Box According to Fifth Embodiment]
The base body 1502 of the peripheral control board box according to the fifth embodiment is largely similar to the shape of the base body 1502 of the peripheral control board box according to the first embodiment, and is the back surface (solder surface) of the liquid crystal output board 1530. The conductive elastic member for substrate 1508 that can come into contact with the metal back cover of the effect display device 1600 is fitted in a position corresponding to the region ROP where a part of the ground (GND) is exposed. The rib portion 1502aw is formed to protrude from the front surface of the base flat plate 1502a to the front with a predetermined distance dimension (a distance dimension that does not contact the back surface (solder surface) of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530). An insertion port 1502az having a square (one side is 8 mm) is formed in the base flat plate 1502a at the center in the vertical and horizontal directions of the rectangular rib portion 1502aw. The conductive elastic member for substrate 1508 having a T shape is a conductive member having cushioning properties (elasticity), and has a conductive covering portion 1508a and a T shape as a core material covered by the conductive covering portion 1508a. And a foam 1508b having the same. Examples of the conductive covering portion 1508a include those in which a metal film of copper and nickel is formed on a polyester woven fabric, and those in which a conductive layer of copper and nickel is formed on a polyimide film. Examples of the foam 1508b include a polyurethane foam having heat resistance. The T-shaped foam body 15808b has a base portion having a rectangular parallelepiped shape that is long in the vertical direction (when the T-shaped foam body 15808b in FIG. 102 is viewed from the right side, the width is about 3.5 mm and the depth is about A projecting portion having a rectangular parallelepiped shape that is long in the front-rear direction from the center of 8 mm and a height of about 16 mm (when the foamed body 15808 b having a T-shape in FIG. 102 is viewed from the right side, the width is about 11.3 mm. 5 mm, depth is about 8 mm, and height is about 8 mm). The conductive elastic member for substrate 1508 is assembled after the peripheral control unit 1500 is assembled (the assembly method of the peripheral control unit 1500 is the same as the assembly method of the peripheral control board box according to the first embodiment, and the description thereof is omitted. ), A base portion having a rectangular parallelepiped shape that is long in the vertical direction of the conductive elastic member for substrate 1508 having a T-shape is inserted into the insertion port 1502az formed in the base body 1502, and is pushed in and fitted in the vertical direction. As a result, as shown in FIG. 103 (a), the protruding portion having a rectangular parallelepiped shape that is long in the front-rear direction of the conductive elastic member for substrate 1508 having a T-shape protrudes rearward from the back surface side of the base flat plate 1502a. It will be in the state.

  When the base portion having a rectangular parallelepiped shape that is long in the vertical direction of the conductive elastic member for substrate 1508 having a T-shape is inserted into the insertion port 1502az formed in the base body 1502 and pushed in, the structure shown in FIG. ), The front surface of the base portion having a rectangular parallelepiped shape that is long in the vertical direction is in contact with the surface ROP of the back surface (solder surface) of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 where a part of the ground (GND) is exposed. The upper and lower back sides and the lower back side of the base portion having the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped that is long in the vertical direction (that is, the shape of the rectangular solid that is long in the vertical direction without the protruding portion having the shape of the rectangular parallelepiped long in the front-rear direction) The back surface of the base part having the base plate 1502a is engaged with the surface of the base flat plate 1502a.

  Thus, the conductive elastic member 1508 for the substrate has a T-shape, and the rib 1502aw and the insertion port 1502az are formed in the center of the rib 1502aw in the vertical and horizontal directions of the base flat plate 1502a. When the conductive elastic member 1508 for a substrate is inserted into the insertion port 1502az and is inserted and fitted, the base conductive elastic member 1508 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape that is long in the vertical direction as described above. Upper and lower back surfaces (that is, the back surfaces of base portions having a rectangular parallelepiped shape that is not connected to a protrusion having a rectangular parallelepiped shape that is long in the front-rear direction) are respectively locked to the surface of the base flat plate 1502a. Therefore, it is difficult for the substrate conductive elastic member 1508 to come off from the insertion port 1502az. Good sounding and hand treatment is to be able to.

  Note that, on the back surface (solder surface) side of the peripheral control board 1510, the region corresponding to the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 formed on the base body 1502 is one area compared to the outer shape of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3. Foil removal regions NR1, NR2, and NR3 each having a large shape are formed, and the front surfaces (contact surfaces) of the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 are in contact with the foil removal regions NR1, NR, and NR3, respectively. These foil removal regions NR1, NR2, and NR3 are designed to prevent the intrusion of noise (electromagnetic wave noise) from the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 formed in the base body 1502. Isolated from GND). In other words, noise (electromagnetic wave noise) cannot enter the solid ground of the peripheral control board 1510 from the disconnection prevention ribs 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 formed in the base body 1502 via the foil removal regions NR1, NR2, and NR3. A route where noise cannot escape is formed.

  As described above, the effect display device 1600 includes a frame-shaped metal frame, a metal back cover that covers the entire rear surface of the metal frame, and a transparent synthetic resin box. A frame-shaped metal frame accommodates a liquid crystal panel, a backlight, a drive circuit, and the like. The entire rear surface of the frame-shaped metal frame is closed and fixed by the metal back cover, so that the frame-shaped metal frame and the metal back cover are electrically connected, Housed in a transparent plastic box. When the peripheral control unit 1500 is attached to an attachment portion formed on the back side of the transparent synthetic resin box of the effect display device 1600, a rectangular parallelepiped long in the front-rear direction of the conductive elastic member 1508 for the substrate protruding from the back side of the base body 1502 The projecting portion having the shape of is a state in which the projecting portion is pressed against the metal back cover of the effect display device 1600 (in the fifth embodiment, the projecting shape having a rectangular parallelepiped shape long in the front-rear direction of the conductive elastic member 1508 for the substrate When the conductive elastic member for substrate 1508 having a T shape is deformed into an H shape, the repulsive force is applied to the substrate. The conductive elastic member 1508 includes a contact surface between the back surface (solder surface) of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 and a region ROP where a part of the ground (GND) is exposed, and an effect table. The device 1600 is in a state of being added to the contact surface with the metal back cover, maintaining a good electrical connection, and a ground (GND) on the back surface (solder surface) of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530. The metallic back cover of the effect display device 1600 is in an electrically and reliably connected state, and the ground (GND) line of the liquid crystal output board 1530 accommodated in the peripheral control unit 1500 (the ground of the liquid crystal output board 1530 ( GND) is electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the peripheral control board 1510 and the peripheral data ROM board 1520), and can be the same ground (GND). Thereby, the metal back cover of the effect display device 1600 is connected to the ground (GND) line of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 via the conductive elastic member 1508 for the substrate (the ground (GND) of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is the peripheral control substrate). 1510 and the ground (GND) of the peripheral data ROM board 1520). The ground (GND) of the peripheral control board 1510 and the like housed in the peripheral control unit 1500. Since the same ground (GND) can be electrically connected to the line, the peripheral control unit 1500 (peripheral control board 1510, peripheral data ROM board 1520, and Various substrates such as a liquid crystal output substrate 1530) and a peripheral control unit 1500 (peripheral control substrate 1510, Can be constructed edge data ROM substrate 1520, and with respect to the periphery of the various substrates) such as a liquid crystal output board 1530. Therefore, the influence by electromagnetic wave noise can be reduced.

  The cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 in the peripheral control board box according to the fifth embodiment are formed by molding as a transparent non-conductive resin, and the cover body 1501 has an internal space. After the various substrates such as the peripheral control substrate 1510, the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are attached at predetermined positions, the conductive elastic member for substrate 1508 having a T-shape is elongated in the vertical direction. When the base portion having the shape is inserted into the insertion port 1502az formed in the base body 1502, and the peripheral control unit 1500 is attached to the attachment portion formed on the back side of the transparent synthetic resin box of the effect display device 1600, The metal back cover of the effect display device 1600 outputs a liquid crystal via the conductive elastic member 1508 for the substrate. The plate 1530 is connected to the ground (GND) line (the ground (GND) of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the peripheral control substrate 1510 and the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520). It is configured. Further, the ground (GND) lines of the peripheral control board 1510, the peripheral data ROM board 1520, and the liquid crystal output board 1530 are electrically connected to the ground (GND) line of the power supply board 630 in the board unit 620 of the main body frame 4 as described above. Connected. Therefore, the noise (electromagnetic wave noise) that has entered the effect display device 1600 is guided through the metal back cover of the effect display device 1600 to the substrate ground (ground (GND) of various substrates) and removed. A route to exit can be formed. Thereby, it is not necessary to provide each type of substrate (including the power supply substrate 630) with a dedicated filter for removing such noise (electromagnetic wave noise), thereby reducing the cost of the various substrates (including the power supply substrate 630). Can contribute.

  Note that the ground (GND) of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 () (the ground (GND) of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 () is connected to the peripheral control substrate 1510 and the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520 on the surface (mounting surface) of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530. A test pad (not shown) of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is provided on the surface (mounting surface) side of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530. As shown in FIG. 105, the cover 1501 has a contact probe tip (hereinafter simply referred to as “contact probe”) against a test pad (not shown) provided on the surface (mounting surface) side of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530. (It may be a “test lead” for performing a continuity check of a so-called “tester”.) An opening 1501 at can be inserted and contacted. By bringing the contact probe into contact with the test pad, the metal back cover of the effect display device 1600 and the ground (GND) of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are electrically connected even when the pachinko machine 1 is installed in the game hall. An inspection company can easily perform an inspection operation as to whether or not the connection is established.

  It is also possible to employ a method using a through hole without exposing the solid ground as the region ROP. For example, as shown in FIGS. 106C and 106D, the region ROP on the back surface (solder surface) 1530y of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 is electrically connected to the solid ground on the surface (mounting surface) of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530. A plurality of through holes to be connected are arranged in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction, and the copper is formed so that lands are formed around the through holes on the copper foil surface 1530yp of the back surface (solder surface) 1530y of the liquid crystal output substrate 1530. A resist solution can be applied onto the foil surface 1530yp to form a back surface (solder surface) side resist layer 1530yr.

  In the fifth embodiment, when the wing portion of the air-cooling fan FAN attached to the FAN attachment recess 1501aa rotates, the air in the inner space of the cover body 1501 passes through the wing portion by this rotation, and the peripheral control unit 1500 When the air is blown out to the outside, a plurality of air is taken into the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501 when air is taken in from the outside of the peripheral control unit 1500 via the ventilation holes 1501az formed in the cover flat plate 1501a of the cover body 1501. The flow velocity of the air flowing into each of the formed ventilation holes 1501az can be suppressed to a small value. However, when the wing portion of the air cooling fan FAN attached to the FAN attachment recess 1501aa rotates, the rotation causes the wing portion to move. Through the air to the peripheral control IC 1510a. It may be to send out air me. In other words, the main purpose of the air cooling fan FAN may be to simply cool the peripheral control IC 1510a without air exchange in the space between the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502.

  Note that, in the configuration for noise suppression by the peripheral control board box according to the fifth embodiment, the peripheral control board 1510 that contacts the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. For the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side, a metal mask is placed on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x of the peripheral control board 1510, and a squeegee (like a spatula) The surface of the peripheral control board 1510 (mounting surface) 1510x is placed in a reflow oven and the solder paste is dried by heat. However, the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 may be poured into a solder bath and soldered. . In this case, the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the front surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 abut the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a. In order not to reduce the area and the electrical connectivity, the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is not partly raised. It needs to be uniform.

  For example, a copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is formed with a resist layer 1510xr that is partially coated with a resist solution and formed into a predetermined shape, The surface of the peripheral control board 1510 (mounting surface) is soldered to a region having a predetermined shape of the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4. Specifically, as “predetermined shape”, as shown in FIG. 86 (a), the resist is applied to the copper foils that are the surfaces of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510. A shape in which a plurality of circles having a predetermined width are concentrically formed (a shape in which a single circle having a predetermined width is formed concentrically), as shown in FIG. 86 (b), As shown in FIG. 86 (c), a rectangular shape having a predetermined width and a predetermined length is formed in the shape of a chrysanthemum arranged in a ring shape around the center of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4. A shape formed in a lattice shape composed of a directional line and a horizontal line (a shape in which a resist has a predetermined width and a plurality of lines are formed by being separated by a predetermined distance dimension, or a resist may be formed. May have a shape in which a plurality of lines having a predetermined width are formed apart from each other by a predetermined distance.) As shown in FIG. 86D, lines having a predetermined width are separated from each other by a predetermined distance. Then, a shape in which a plurality of right-upward lines are formed in a hatched shape (a shape in which a line having a predetermined width is spaced apart by a predetermined distance and a plurality of right-downward lines are formed in a hatched shape) is not shown. Can be mentioned as a collection of small circular shapes.

  In this way, a resist layer 1510xr is formed in which a part of the copper foil, which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510, is applied with a resist solution and formed into a predetermined shape. Since the surface of the control board 1510 (mounting surface) is soldered to a region having a predetermined shape of the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4, the surface of the peripheral control board 1510 (mounting surface) The amount of solder to be soldered to the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 can be suppressed (in other words, the surface of the peripheral control substrate 1510 (mounting surface) is applied as a predetermined shape by applying a resist solution. The amount of solder to be soldered to the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 Effect as long as the can demonstrate that it is possible to win). Accordingly, when the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is poured into the solder bath and soldered, the copper foil that is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is not soldered. The attachment can be made uniform so that it does not rise partially. The solder thus soldered includes the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a and the lands 1510rf1 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510. 1510rf4 is covered so as to be electrically connectable.

  It should be noted that a predetermined figure formed by such a resist is a land on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 that abuts the seat surface (head seat surface) of the pan portion of the metal pan screw. You may perform also with respect to the copper foil which is the surface of 1510rb1-1510rb4. The solder thus soldered electrically connects the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 and the seat surface (the seat surface of the head) of the pan portion of the metal pan screw. It is covered so that it can be connected. Further, when the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is poured into the solder bath and soldered, the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is applied with a resist solution. Thus, the thickness of the resist layer applied to the surfaces of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 may be uniform.

  Also, in the configuration of noise countermeasures by the peripheral control board box according to the fifth embodiment, when the peripheral control board 1510 is fixed to the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a, a metal pan screw is used. The peripheral control board 1510 may be fixed to the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a through a metal washer such as a flat washer, a spring washer, and a toothed washer (also referred to as “chuck washer”).

  In addition, in the configuration of the noise countermeasure by the peripheral control board box according to the fifth embodiment, the entire rear surface of the frame-shaped metal frame is closed and fixed by the metal back cover, thereby fixing the frame-shaped metal frame. And the metal back cover are electrically connected and accommodated in a transparent synthetic resin box, and the transparent synthetic resin box and the base body 1502 are molded separately. However, the base body 1502 may be integrally formed in this transparent synthetic resin box.

In the case of applying the liquid, a guideline in brackets (“) (may be a figure such as a line or a symbol) may be formed by not applying a part of the region with the resist liquid. By flat cable LFC is fixed to the surface (mounting surface) 1530x LCD output board 1530 by fixing the seal, it is possible to fix the orientation of the flexible flat cable LFC.

  In the above-described embodiment, the connector CN10 of the liquid crystal output board 1530 and the connector 1600ca of the control board 1600c covering the upper back side of the liquid crystal panel 1600a in the effect display device 1600 are electrically connected using the flexible flat cable LFC. However, in the case where a substrate is provided on a movable body that operates by driving electric drive electricity, a flexible flat cable is used as an electrical wiring for electrically connecting the substrate and the drive substrate. Also good. Since a load is applied to the movable body due to the electric wiring accompanying the operation of the movable body, this load may be so large that it cannot be ignored. Therefore, by using a flexible flat cable instead of a wiring or a harness as electrical wiring, the load on the movable body due to the operation of the movable body is suppressed, thereby overloading the electric drive source.

However, for example, the standby position (original position) of the movable body is set on the substrate in the vicinity of the standby position (original position) of the movable body to indicate the standby position (original position) of the movable body that is operated by driving of the electric drive power. Graphics such as lines and symbols shown may be printed by silk printing.

[Connector connection method]
Next, connection is made to a relay board that relays various wirings to the peripheral control board 1510, a relay board that relays various wirings to the main control board 1310, and a connector provided on the relay board that relays various wirings to the payout control board 633. Wiring and harness connectors to be performed will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 110 is a diagram (a) illustrating the arrangement of the connectors on the relay board, and is a diagram (b) illustrating a state in which the wiring and harness connectors are normally connected to the connectors on the relay board. It is a figure (c) which shows the state where the connector of wiring and a harness is not normally connected with respect to.

  By the way, if the wiring or harness connector is not properly inserted into the connector on the relay board, contact failure may occur between the electrodes of the connector, and the wiring or harness connector may be inclined with respect to the connector on the relay board. In some cases, adjacent electrodes of the connector come into contact with each other to cause a short circuit and damage various electronic components mounted on the relay board and various control boards electrically connected to the relay board.

  In the present embodiment, the surface (mounting surface) KDx of the relay substrate KD is provided with a connector SCK on the socket side into which the connector PLG on the plug side of the wiring or harness KDCBL is inserted, as shown in FIG. Yes. The socket-side connector SCK is of a right angle type (also referred to as “side type”), and has a box shape in which an opening SCKb is formed with respect to the lower surface SCKaa of the main body SCKa having a long rectangular shape in the left-right direction Is formed. Plug portion PLGa of connector PLG is inserted into opening SCKb. The lower side surface SCKaa in which the opening of the socket-side connector SCK is formed has a predetermined distance dw1 from the lower end side KDeg of the relay substrate KD and is disposed on the surface (mounting surface) KDx of the relay substrate KD. The plug-side connector PLG has a rectangular shape elongated in the left-right direction and a size smaller than the opening SCKb with respect to the upper surface PLGba of the main body PLGb having the same distance dimension as the distance dimension in the left-right direction of the body SCKa A plug portion PLGa having a rectangular shape that is long in the left-right direction is integrally formed. The lower side surface SCKaa in which the opening SCKb of the socket-side connector SCK is formed has a predetermined distance dimension dw1 from the lower end side KDeg of the relay substrate KD, as described above, and the surface (mounting surface) of the relay substrate KD. Although arranged in KDx, in this embodiment, the predetermined distance dimension dw1 is the distance dimension (thickness) dcw in the vertical direction of the main body PLGb of the plug-side connector PLG.

  When the plug part PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG is normally inserted to the back of the opening SCKb of the socket-side connector SCK, the entire upper surface PLGba of the main body PLGb formed integrally with the plug part PLGa is the connector on the socket side. The surface is brought into contact with the lower surface SCKaa where the opening SCKb of the SCK is formed. In this state, as shown in FIG. 110 (b), the surface opposite to the upper surface PLGba of the main body PLGb formed integrally with the plug portion PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG (that is, the main body of the plug-side connector PLG). The lower side surface PLGbb) of PLGb and the lower end side KDeg of the relay substrate KD (that is, the substrate end of the relay substrate KD) are arranged in a positional relationship overlapping with each other in the front-rear direction.

  As described above, the socket-side connector SCK is arranged with the vertical distance dimension (thickness) dcw of the main body PLGb of the plug-side connector PLG as the predetermined distance dimension dw1 from the lower end side KDeg of the relay board KD. Therefore, when the plug part PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG is normally inserted to the back of the opening SCKb of the socket-side connector SCK, the main body is formed integrally with the plug part PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG. The surface opposite to the upper surface PLGba of PLGb (that is, the lower surface PLGbb of the main body PLGb of the plug-side connector PLG) and the lower end side KDeg of the relay substrate KD (that is, the substrate end of the relay substrate KD) It will be arranged in a positional relationship that overlaps with. Thereby, in the assembly line of the manufacturer of the pachinko machine, when the operator normally inserts the plug part PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG to the back of the opening SCKb of the socket-side connector SCK, The surface opposite to the upper surface PLGba of the main body PLGb formed integrally with the plug portion PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG (that is, the lower surface PLGbb of the main body PLGb of the plug-side connector PLG) and the lower end side of the relay substrate KD The plug part PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG is connected to the opening of the socket-side connector SCK by touching the KDeg (that is, the board end of the relay board KD) with the hand touching the KDeg. It can be easily determined whether or not it is normally inserted to the back of SCKb. When a pachinko machine is inspected by a pachinko machine, the plug portion PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG is opened to the socket-side connector SCK by touching the hand that the pachinko machine is arranged on the same plane as described above. It can be easily determined whether or not the part SCKb has been inserted normally. Therefore, it is possible to contribute to improving the efficiency of confirmation work.

  In the state where the plug portion PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG is inserted obliquely without being normally inserted all the way into the opening SCKb of the socket-side connector SCK, as shown in FIG. 110 (c), The surface opposite to the upper surface PLGba of the main body PLGb formed integrally with the plug portion PLGa of the connector PLG (that is, the lower surface PLGbb of the main body PLGb of the plug-side connector PLG) is the lower end side KDeg (that is, In this arrangement, the protruding amount dSP protrudes from the substrate end of the relay substrate KD. As a result, a worker on the assembly line of the pachinko machine manufacturer or a clerk of the game hall who performs inspection work of the pachinko machine can connect the main body PLGb of the plug-side connector PLG to the lower end of the relay board KD by the amount of protrusion dSP. By projecting from the side KDeg, the surface opposite to the upper side surface PLGba of the main body PLGb formed integrally with the plug portion PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG on the finger of an operator or a clerk of the game hall, etc. , By the tactile sensation that there is a step by touching the lower surface PLGbb of the main body PLGb of the plug-side connector PLG and the lower end side KDeg of the relay board KD (that is, the board end of the relay board KD). The plug part PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG is normally inserted to the back of the opening SCKb of the socket-side connector SCK. It is possible to easily determine that you are not.

[Modification]
In the embodiment described above, the socket-side connector SCK has a distance dimension (thickness) dcw in the vertical direction of the main body PLGb of the plug-side connector PLG as a predetermined distance dimension dw1 from the lower end side KDeg of the relay board KD. The plug portion PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG is formed integrally with the plug portion PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG in a state where the plug portion PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG is normally inserted to the back of the opening SCKb of the socket-side connector SCK. The surface opposite to the upper surface PLGba of the main body PLGb (that is, the lower surface PLGbb of the main body PLGb of the plug-side connector PLG) and the lower end side KDeg of the relay substrate KD (that is, the substrate end of the relay substrate KD) The components of the connector SCK on the socket side were arranged so as to coincide with each other and overlap. The component placement line indicating the position is printed by silk printing with a solid line larger than the outer shape of the socket-side connector SCK, and the plug portion PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG is normal to the back of the opening SCKb of the socket-side connector SCK. In the state of being inserted into the plug-side connector PLG, the surface on the opposite side to the upper surface PLGba of the main body PLGb formed integrally with the plug portion PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG (that is, the lower surface PLGbb of the main body PLGb of the plug-side connector PLG) The lower side of the component arrangement line indicating the component position of the socket-side connector SCK may be arranged so as to match. FIG. 111 is a modified example of FIG. 110, and is a diagram (a) showing the placement of connectors on the relay board and the part product placement lines. The wiring and harness connectors are normally connected to the connectors on the relay board. It is a figure (b) which shows a state, and is a figure (c) which shows the state where the connector of wiring and a harness is not connected normally to the connector of a relay board.

  For example, on the surface (mounting surface) KDx of the relay substrate KD, as shown in FIG. 111A, a socket-side connector SCK into which a plug or connector PLG on the plug side of the wiring or harness KDCBL is inserted. The socket-side connector SCK is formed in a box shape in which an opening SCKb is formed with respect to the lower surface SCKaa of the main body SCKa having a rectangular shape elongated in the left-right direction. Plug portion PLGa of connector PLG is inserted into opening SCKb. The lower side surface SCKaa in which the opening SCKb of the socket-side connector SCK is formed has a first distance dimension dw2 from the lower end side KDeg of the relay board KD (for example, the socket-side connector SCK shown in FIG. 110A is the relay board). The surface (mounting surface) KDx of the relay substrate KD having a distance dimension of about twice the distance dimension dw1 from the lower end side KDeg of KD and at least 5 mm. Is arranged.

  The reason why the lower side surface SCKaa in which the opening SCKb of the connector SCK on the socket side is formed is separated from the lower end side KDeg of the relay substrate KD by the first distance dimension dw2 will be briefly described. When mounting components or flowing the board to the solder bath, it is necessary to form a so-called “throw-out board (range where electronic parts cannot be mounted)”, and from 3 mm to 5 mm inward from each edge of the board. An electronic component cannot be mounted over the entire range (the range extending from each edge of the substrate to its periphery). When mounting electronic components without forming this waste plate (that is, when mounting electronic components in the range from each edge of the board to its periphery), gripping jigs to fix the board and board warpage prevention Although it is necessary to use a jig, in this case as well, in the area of the substrate held by the gripping jig or the substrate warpage prevention jig, an electronic component cannot be disposed about 5 mm inward from the edge of the substrate. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the socket-side connector SCK shown in FIG. 110A has a predetermined distance dimension dw1 from the lower end side KDeg of the relay board KD as the first distance dimension dw2 from the lower end side KDeg of the relay board KD. Thus, the distance dimension is about twice as large as at least 5 mm. Accordingly, when the plug part PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG is normally inserted to the back of the opening SCKb of the socket-side connector SCK, the main body PLGb formed integrally with the plug part PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG The surface opposite to the upper surface PLGba (that is, the lower surface PLGbb of the main body PLGb of the plug-side connector PLG) is disposed above the lower end side KDeg of the relay substrate KD, so that it is disposed inside the relay substrate KD. Will be.

  Around the socket-side connector SCK, a rectangular component placement line DSLK indicating the component position of the socket-side connector SCK, at least a lower surface SCKaa in which an opening SCKb of the socket-side connector SCK is formed, and the socket The lower side DSLKeg of the component placement line DSLK of the connector SCK on the side has a second distance dimension dw3 and is printed on the surface (mounting surface) KDx of the relay substrate KD by silk printing. The plug-side connector PLG has a rectangular shape elongated in the left-right direction and a size smaller than the opening SCKb with respect to the upper surface PLGba of the main body PLGb having the same distance dimension as the distance dimension in the left-right direction of the body SCKa A plug portion PLGa having a rectangular shape that is long in the left-right direction is integrally formed. As described above, the rectangular component placement line DSLK indicating the component position of the socket-side connector SCK and at least the opening SCKb of the socket-side connector SCK are formed around the socket-side connector SCK. The lower side SCKaa and the lower side DSLKeg of the component placement line DSLK of the socket-side connector SCK have a second distance dimension dw3 and are printed on the surface (mounting surface) KDx of the relay substrate KD by silk printing. In the present embodiment, the second distance dimension dw3 is a distance dimension in which the socket-side connector SCK shown in FIG. 110A is arranged with a predetermined distance dimension dw1 from the lower end side KDeg of the relay board KD. The same distance dimension (that is, the distance dimension (thickness) dc in the vertical direction of the main body PLGb of the plug-side connector PLG) Has become).

  When the plug part PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG is normally inserted to the back of the opening SCKb of the socket-side connector SCK, the entire upper surface PLGba of the main body PLGb formed integrally with the plug part PLGa is the connector on the socket side. The surface is brought into contact with the lower surface SCKaa of the opening SCKb of the SCK. In this state, as shown in FIG. 111 (b), the surface opposite to the upper surface PLGba of the main body PLGb formed integrally with the plug portion PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG (that is, the main body of the plug-side connector PLG). The lower side PLGbb) of PLGb and the lower side DSLKeg of the component placement line DSLK of the connector SCK on the socket side are arranged to coincide with each other. As a result, an operator in an assembly line of a pachinko machine manufacturer or a clerk of a game hall who performs inspection work of the pachinko machine, the plug portion PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG is inserted into the opening SCKb of the socket-side connector SCK. It can be easily determined visually whether or not it is normally inserted to the back. Therefore, it is possible to contribute to improving the efficiency of confirmation work.

  In the state where the plug portion PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG is inserted obliquely without being normally inserted all the way into the opening SCKb of the socket-side connector SCK, as shown in FIG. The surface on the opposite side of the upper surface PLGba of the main body PLGb formed integrally with the plug portion PLGa of the connector PLG (that is, the lower surface PLGbb of the main body PLGb of the plug-side connector PLG) is the component placement line of the connector SCK on the socket side The arrangement is such that it protrudes from the lower side of the DSLK with a protrusion amount dSP. As a result, an operator in the assembly line of the pachinko machine manufacturer or a clerk of the game hall who performs inspection work of the pachinko machine, the main body PLGb of the plug-side connector PLG of the part placement line DSLK is equivalent to the protrusion amount dSP. By projecting from the lower side DSLKeg, it can be easily determined visually that the plug portion PLGa of the plug-side connector PLG is not normally inserted to the back of the opening SCKb of the socket-side connector SCK.

  By the way, various types such as a main control board that performs control related to game progress and game profit, a sub-control board that performs control related to effects executed as the game progresses, and an image control board that performs display control of an image display device, etc. A gaming machine in which the board is arranged on the back side has been proposed (for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2017-217381 (paragraph [0051] and FIG. 2). There are connectors provided on the board, in which wires are inserted and removed, and connectors in which one end is electrically connected to the wires are inserted and removed. In this connection work, it was necessary to perform electrical confirmation of the connector, which took time.

[7. Game contents]
The game content by the pachinko machine 1 of this embodiment is demonstrated with reference to FIG. 30 thru | or FIG. In the pachinko machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the game ball B stored in the upper plate 130 of the door frame 3 is operated by the player rotating the handle 111 of the handle unit 180 disposed in the lower right corner of the front surface of the door frame 3. However, it passes between the outer rail 1001 and the inner rail 1002 in the game board 5 and is driven into the upper part of the game area 5a, and the game with the game ball B is started. The game ball B driven into the upper part in the game area 5a flows down either the left side or the right side of the center accessory 2500 depending on the driving strength. The driving strength of the game ball B can be adjusted by the amount of rotation of the handle 111, and the game ball B can be driven harder as it is rotated in the clockwise direction, and a maximum of 100 game balls can be continuously per minute. B, that is, the game ball B can be shot at intervals of 0.6 seconds.

  In the game area 5a, a plurality of obstacle nails N are planted on the front surface of the game panel 1100 (panel plate 1110) in a predetermined gauge arrangement at appropriate positions, and the game ball B abuts against the obstacle nail N. Thus, the flow velocity of the game ball B is suppressed, and various movements are given to the game ball B so that the movement can be enjoyed. Further, in the game area 5 a, in addition to the obstacle nail N, a windmill that rotates when the game ball B abuts is provided at a position between the first shelf 2201 of the side unit 2200 and the warp inlet 2501. .

  When the game ball B driven into the upper part of the center accessory 2500 enters the left side of the front view of the outer peripheral surface of the center accessory 2500 from the highest part (left side of the upper right peripheral wall portion 2510), While coming into contact with the plurality of obstacle nails N, the region on the left side of the center accessory 2500 flows down. Then, when the game ball B flowing down the left region of the center accessory 2500 enters the warp inlet 2501 opened on the outer peripheral surface of the center accessory 2500, it is supplied from the warp outlet 2502 to the stage 2503.

  The game ball B supplied to the stage 2503 rolls on the stage 2503, moves back and forth, and is discharged forward from the central portion in the left-right direction. When the game ball B is discharged into the game area 5a from the central discharge portion 2503a at the center of the stage 2503, the central discharge portion 2503a is located immediately above the first start port 2002, and therefore the first probability is high. It is received in the start port 2002. When the game ball B is received in the first starting port 2002, a predetermined number (for example, three) of game balls B are paid out to the upper plate 130 from the payout device 350 via the main control board 1310 and the payout control board 633. Is done.

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

  By the way, when the game ball B that has flowed down to the left side of the center accessory 2500 does not enter the warp inlet 2501, it is moved toward the center in the left-right direction by the first shelf 2201 of the side unit 2200 and the obstacle nail N, and the side unit There is a possibility that it will be received in the general winning opening 2001 of 2200, the first starting opening 2002 of the starting opening unit 2100, the general winning opening 2001 or the like. When the game ball B is received in the general winning opening 2001, a predetermined number (for example, 10) of game balls B are paid out to the upper plate 130 from the payout device 350 via the main control board 1310 and the payout control board 633. Is done.

  On the other hand, the game ball B that is driven into the upper portion of the center accessory 2500 in the game area 5a is on the right side (upstream space above the upper right peripheral wall portion 2510) of the highest portion of the outer peripheral surface of the center accessory 2500. Section 2511), it is discharged above the gate part 2003 of the center accessory 2500 through either the first distribution passage 2521 or the second distribution passage 2522 of the distribution passage group 2520 of the center accessory 2500, and the gate After contacting a plurality of obstacle nails N planted above the portion 2003, the gate portion 2003 passes with a certain probability.

  The distribution passage group 2520 of the center accessory 2500 has a first distribution passage 2521 whose entrance is open in the vicinity of the stop portion 1006, and an entrance that is spaced leftward from the entrance of the first distribution passage 2521. The second distribution passage 2522. As a result, when the game ball B is hit with a strength that makes contact with the stopper 1006 (so-called right hit), it enters the first circulation passage 2521 and enters the upstream space 2511 and hits the stopper 1006. When the game ball B is hit with a strength that does not contact (a strength that is somewhat weaker than the right hit), the player enters the second distribution passage 2522 with a high probability. That is, the game ball B driven into the upstream space portion 2511 flows through either the first distribution passage 2521 or the second distribution passage 2522 according to the driving strength.

  On the other hand, the game ball B that has circulated through the first circulation passage 2521 is guided to the right side of the gate portion 2003 with a high probability by the plurality of obstacle nails N that are planted above the gate portion 2003, and the gate portion 2003 is not much moved. It passes through the right side of the gate part 2003 without passing through. On the other hand, the game ball B that has circulated through the second circulation passage 2522 is guided to the left from the right side of the gate portion 2003 with a high probability by a plurality of obstacle nails N that are planted above the gate portion 2003, and is high. Pass through the gate part 2003 with probability.

  When the game ball B passes through the gate portion 2003 and is detected by the gate sensor 2506, a normal lottery is performed on the main control board 1310. If the lottery normal lottery result is “normal hit”, the attacker unit 2400 The closed second start port 2004 is opened for a predetermined time (for example, 0.3 to 10 seconds), and the game ball B can be received in the second start port 2004.

  In the present embodiment, in the normal lottery performed when the game ball B passes through the gate part 2003, a certain amount of time is set from the start of the normal lottery until the normal lottery result is suggested (for example, 0 .01 to 60 seconds, also referred to as normal fluctuation time). The suggestion of the normal lottery result is displayed on the function display unit 1400 or the sub function display unit 2450 of the game board 5. The second start port 2004 is opened after the normal fluctuation time has elapsed.

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

  The game ball B that has passed through the right side of the gate unit 2003 is positioned at the right side of the general winning opening 2001 of the attacker unit 2400 with a very high probability due to a plurality of obstacle nails N installed between the gate unit 2003 and the attacker unit 2400. Enter the attacker right passage 2422. On the other hand, the game ball B that has passed through the gate part 2003 or the game ball B that has passed through the left side of the gate part 2003 is caused by a plurality of obstacle nails N that are implanted between the gate part 2003 and the attacker unit 2400. It is guided to the left of the attacker right passage 2422 with a very high probability and enters the attacker left passage 2421 with a high probability.

  Note that a general winning port 2001 of the attacker unit 2400 is arranged on the left side of the attacker right passage 2422. When the game ball B is received in the general winning port 2001 and detected by the general winning port sensor 2401, A predetermined number (for example, 10) of game balls B are paid out to the upper plate 130 from the payout device 350 via the main control board 1310 and the payout control board 633.

  The game ball B that has entered the attacker right passage 2422 comes into contact with the stepped portion 1005a of the right rail 1005 and enters the second start port guide shelf 2423 through the communication port 2425 with a high probability. It distributes on the second start door 2411. When the game ball B that has entered the attacker right passage 2422 does not enter the second start opening guide shelf 2423, the game ball B enters the attacker lower right passage 2426 and is related to the second start opening 2004 or the big prize opening 2005. Without being discharged out of the game area 5a from the out port 1008. In addition, the game ball B that has entered the attacker left passage 2421 enters the second start opening guide shelf 2423 and circulates on the closed second start opening door 2411.

  When the game ball B enters the second start port guidance shelf 2423, the normal lottery result drawn by passing the game ball B at the gate 2003 is “normal hit”, and the second start port door 2411 is When in the open state, the game ball B is received in the second starting port 2004. When the game ball B is received in the second starting port 2004, a predetermined number (for example, four) of game balls B are paid out to the upper plate 130 from the payout device 350 via the main control board 1310 and the payout control board 633. Is done.

  The game ball B that has entered the second start opening guide shelf 2423 and has not been received by the second start opening 2004 is discharged to the big winning opening guide shelf 2424 side and rolled on the closed big winning opening door 2413. Later, it is discharged into the game area 5a and discharged out of the game area 5a through the out port 1008. A plurality of obstacle nails N are planted between the second start opening guide shelf 2423 and the special winning opening guide shelf 2424, and the intermediate passage 2427 is open. The game ball B released from the shelf 2423 to the winning prize exit guidance shelf 2424 side enters the intermediate passage 2427 with a low probability. The game ball B that has entered the intermediate passage 2427 is discharged from the out port 1008 to the outside of the game area 5a without being related to the big prize winning port 2005.

  Because of the above, the game ball B that has circulated through the first circulation passage 2521 does not pass through the gate portion 2003 so much, so that the second start port 2004 is opened by the passage of the gate portion 2003 of the game ball B. The normal lottery result is not often drawn, and the game ball B is not received much at the second starting port 2004. On the other hand, since the game balls B that have circulated through the second circulation passage 2522 pass through the gate part 2003 with a high probability, the normal lottery result in which the second start port 2004 is opened by the passage of the gate part 2003 of the game balls B ( “Normal hit”) is highly likely to be drawn, and there is a high possibility that the game ball B will be received at the second starting port 2004.

  For this reason, since the player performs a driving operation of the game ball B aiming at the entrance of the second circulation passage 2522, the driving strength at which the game ball B enters the upstream space portion 2511. In addition, the driving strength of the gaming ball B must be adjusted so that the gaming ball B is driven into the gaming area 5a with the driving strength at which the gaming ball B enters the second circulation passage 2522. Therefore, it is possible to make the player difficult to get bored by giving a change to the operation of driving the game ball B, and to make the player enter the operation of the game ball B to suppress a decrease in interest. Can be made.

  By the way, in the pachinko machine 1 according to the present embodiment, when the game ball B is received in the first start port 2002 and the second start port 2004, the main control board 1310 has an advantageous game state (for example, “big hit” “)” Is generated and a lottery of a special lottery result is performed. Then, the lottery result of the special lottery is indicated to the player over a predetermined time (for example, 0.1 to 360 seconds, also referred to as a special variation time). The special lottery results that are drawn when the game ball B is received at the first start port 2002 and the second start port 2004 include “losing”, “15R big hit A”, “15R big hit B”, and the like. .

  The special lottery result (first special lottery result and second special lottery result) drawn by accepting the game balls B to the first starting port 2002 and the second starting port 2004 is the special lottery result that generates an advantageous gaming state. In this case, after the elapse of the special variation time, the special winning opening 2005 is in a state where the game ball B can be received in a predetermined opening / closing pattern. When the game ball B is received in the big prize opening 2005 when the big prize opening 2005 is open, a predetermined number (for example, ten or thirteen) from the payout device 350 by the main control board 1310 and the payout control board 633. Of game balls B are paid out to the upper plate 130. Therefore, when the winning ball opening 2005 is capable of receiving the game ball B, by allowing the winning ball opening 2005 to receive the game ball B, it is possible to pay out a lot of the game balls B, and to entertain the player. it can.

  When the special lottery result is “big hit”, a predetermined time (for example, about 30 seconds) elapses after the winning prize opening 2005 is in an open state where the game ball B can be received, or the predetermined winning opening 2005 is given. When any of the conditions for accepting the number of game balls B (for example, 10) is satisfied, an open / close pattern that closes the game balls B in an unacceptable state (a single open / close pattern is referred to as one round) Repeat a predetermined number of times (a predetermined number of rounds). For example, if it is “15R big hit”, 15 rounds are repeated to generate an advantageous gaming state advantageous to the player.

  In the “big hit”, when the big winning opening 2005 is opened due to the big hit gaming state, when the game ball received in the big winning opening 2005 is distributed to the second receiving opening 2008 by the sorting piece 2415, the big hit game After the state ends, ST (special time) is generated as an advantageous gaming state. This ST is a time variation that changes the probability of changing the probability that a special lottery result such as “big hit” will be drawn for a predetermined number of fluctuations or the display time of an effect image that suggests the special lottery result. This is to maintain the state.

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

  As described above, when the special winning lot 2005 is opened by the special lottery result drawn by receiving the game balls B to the first start opening 2002 and the second start opening 2004, the second distribution passage When the game ball B is operated to aim at the entrance of 2522, the operation of the game ball must be finely adjusted. Therefore, there is a risk that the interest in games will be reduced. However, in the present embodiment, when the game ball B is hit right and circulated through the first circulation passage 2521, the right side of the gate portion 2003, the attacker right passage 2422, the step portion 1005a of the right rail 1005, the communication port 2425, and the first Since the game ball B can be distributed to the big winning opening guiding shelf 2424 side (the big winning opening 2005 side) through the two start opening guiding shelves 2423, it is easy even without adjusting the delicate driving operation. The game ball B can be received into the big prize opening 2005 by the driving operation, and the player can enjoy the game in the advantageous gaming state, and the driving operation of the game ball B according to the gaming state is sharp. It is possible to suppress a decrease in the interest of the player.

  By the way, the suggestion of the special lottery result drawn by the acceptance of the game ball B to the first start port 2002 and the second start port 2004 is performed by the function display unit 1400 and the effect display device 1600. The function display unit 1400 and the sub function display unit 2450 are directly controlled by the main control board 1310 to suggest a special lottery result. The suggestion of the special lottery result in the function display unit 1400 suggests the special lottery result based on the combination of the LEDs that are lit, after a plurality of LEDs are repeatedly turned on / off and blinked for a predetermined time.

  On the other hand, the effect display device 1600 is indirectly controlled by the peripheral control board 1510 based on a control signal from the main control board 1310 and suggests a special lottery result as an effect image. The effect image that suggests the special lottery result on the effect display device 1600 is a state where the image sequence is changed and displayed in a state where three image sequences composed of a plurality of designs are displayed side by side in the horizontal direction. Are stopped and displayed in order, and each of the pattern rows is stopped and displayed so that the patterns of the three pattern rows to be stopped and displayed have a combination corresponding to the special lottery result. When the special lottery result is other than “losing”, after the three pattern rows are stopped and each pattern is stopped and displayed, a finalized image indicating the special lottery result is displayed on the effect display device 1600 and the lottery is selected. An advantageous gaming state (for example, 15R big hit game A, 15R big hit game B, etc.) according to the special lottery result occurs.

  It should be noted that the time indicating the special lottery result in the function display unit 1400 (LED blinking time (fluctuation time)) and the time suggesting the special lottery result in the effect display device 1600 (the pattern row fluctuates and the confirmed image is changed). The time until display is different, and the function display unit 1400 and the sub-function display unit 2450 are set to a longer time.

  Further, in the peripheral control board 1510, in addition to the display of the effect image for suggesting the special lottery result by the effect display device 1600, the pressing operation of the effect operation unit 160 on the door frame 3 according to the lottery special lottery result. It is possible to perform a player participation type effect that causes the unit 161 to be operated. In the player participation type effect, the pressing operation unit 161 can be raised and made conspicuous by the first elevating drive motor 180a and the second elevating drive motor 182, and the player participation type effect can be enjoyed by operating the effect operation unit 160. be able to.

  In addition, in the peripheral control board 1510, each decorative board provided in the door frame 3, each decorative board provided in the game board 5, and the back first effect unit 3100 and the back second effect unit 3200 of the back unit 3000. , And the back third stage production unit 3300, etc. can be used as appropriate to produce a light-emitting effect, a movable effect, etc., and the player can be entertained by various effects, reducing the player's interest in the game Can be suppressed.

  Further, in the peripheral control board 1510, in addition to the display of the effect image for suggesting the special lottery result by the effect display device 1600, the back first of the back unit 3000 in the game board 5 according to the lottery special lottery result. Using the effect unit 3100, the back second effect unit 3200, the back third effect unit 3300, etc. as appropriate, it is possible to perform a light emission effect, a movable effect, a display effect, and the like. It can be entertained and it can suppress that a player's interest in a game falls.

[8. Various control processes of main control board]
Next, various control processes performed by the main control board 1310 shown in FIG. 64 according to the progress of the game of the pachinko machine 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 112 to 117. 112 is a flowchart showing an example of main control-side power-on processing, FIG. 113 is a flowchart showing continuation of main-control-side power-on processing in FIG. 112, and FIG. 114 is an example of main control-side timer interrupt processing. 115 is a flowchart showing an example of the setting change process, FIG. 116 is a flowchart showing an example of the setting value confirmation display process, and FIG. 117 is a flowchart showing an example of the error display process. First, various random numbers used for game control will be explained, followed by the behavior of the initial value update type counter, main control side power-on processing, main control side timer interrupt processing, setting change processing, error display processing, setting value confirmation The display process will be described. In the following description, the main control MPU 1310a may be simply referred to as “main control MPU”.

[8-1. Various random numbers]
Various random numbers used for game control, special random numbers used to determine whether or not to generate a big hit gaming state or a small hit gaming state, and an initial value for hit judgment used to determine the initial value of this special random number A random number for determination, a random number for reach determination to be used for determining whether or not to generate a reach (reach out of reach) when the big hit gaming state is not generated, the first special symbol indicator and the second special symbol of the function display unit 1400 The random display pattern random number for use in determining the variable display pattern of the special symbol variably displayed on the symbol display, and the first special symbol indicator and the second special symbol of the function display unit 1400 when generating the big hit gaming state For the determination of the symbol random number to be used for the determination of the big hit symbol and the small hit symbol (determination of the hit type) derived and displayed on the symbol display and the initial value of this symbol random number Big hit symbol for the initial value determination random number or the like for there are prepared. In addition to these random numbers, a random number for normal symbol determination for use in determining whether to open or close the movable piece that can accept the game ball of the second starting port 2004, and determination for this normal symbol Normal value determination random number for normal symbol used for determination of initial value of random number for normal use and normal symbol for use in determination of variable display pattern of normal symbol variably displayed on normal symbol display of function display unit 1400 A random number for a variable display pattern is prepared.

  Among various random numbers used for such game control, special random numbers are updated by hardware, while other various random numbers are updated by software.

  For example, the special random number is directly updated by hardware by a main control built-in hard random number circuit built in the main control MPU. When the main control MPU is reset, this main control built-in hard random number circuit first sets a single value within a predetermined numerical range as an initial value at a high speed based on a clock signal input to the main control MPU. Extract other values within the specified numerical range one after another, and once all the values within the predetermined numerical range have been extracted, again extract one value within the predetermined numerical range and Other values within a predetermined numerical range are extracted one after another based on the clock signal input to the MPU. The main control built-in hard random number circuit repeatedly performs such a high-speed lottery, and the main control MPU sets the value extracted by the main control built-in hard random number circuit as a special random number when the value is acquired from the main control built-in hard random number circuit. It is supposed to be.

  On the other hand, the counter for updating the random number for determination per normal symbol is updated within a predetermined fixed numerical value range from the minimum value to the maximum value, and a range from the minimum value to the maximum value will be described later. Each time the main control side timer interrupt process is performed, the value is incremented by one. This counter counts up from the initial value determination random number for normal symbol determination toward the maximum value, and then counts up from the minimum value toward the initial value determination random number for normal symbol determination. When the counter finishes counting up the range from the minimum value to the maximum value of the random number for normal symbol determination, the initial value determination random number for normal symbol determination is updated. Such a counter updating method is referred to as an “initial value updating type counter”. The normal value determination random number for normal symbol determination can be obtained by executing an initial value lottery process for drawing one value from a fixed numerical value range of a counter that updates the random number for normal symbol determination.

  In the present embodiment, the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 is stored in the main control built-in RAM of the main control MPU when the RWM clear button 633z is operated when the power is turned on or in the main control side power-on process described later. The checksum value (sum value) obtained by calculating the sum of various information as numerical values is the checksum value (sum value) stored in the main control side power-off process (at power-off). When clearing all areas of the main control built-in RAM except for a specific area, such as when they do not match, the normal value per-symbol determination initial value determination random number is stored in the nonvolatile RAM built into the main control MPU. An initial value derivation that always derives the same fixed value from the fixed numerical range of the counter that extracts the ID code from the counter and updates the random number for determination per normal symbol based on the extracted ID code Run the physical, fixed value this derivation has a mechanism to be set. That is, the initial value determination random number for normal symbol determination is always overwritten and updated with the same fixed value derived based on the ID code by executing the initial value derivation process. As described above, the value set as the initial value determination random number for normal symbol determination is derived by using the ID code, and is stored in the nonvolatile RAM built in the main control MPU by the manufacturer of the main control MPU. The first security measure that the ID code is not rewritten even if an external device is used when the ID code is stored, and the initial value derivation process is performed when clearing all areas of the main control built-in RAM except for a specific area. It is prevented from being analyzed by taking a two-stage security measure by executing and a second security measure of deriving the same fixed value based on the ID code.

  Here, an advantage will be described in which an ID code is taken out from a nonvolatile RAM incorporated in the main control MPU and this taken out ID code is used as an initial value determining random number for normal symbol determination. For example, a person who illegally acquires a game ball to be paid out as a prize ball obtains the game board 5 by some method and disassembles it, and uses an ID code stored in advance in a non-volatile RAM built in the main control MPU. Even if the counter value that is obtained illegally and the counter value for updating the determination random number per normal symbol and the determination value per normal symbol match can be grasped, the ID code is unique for identifying the individual. Since the reference numerals are attached, the ID codes are completely different from the ID codes stored in advance in the nonvolatile RAM built in the main control MPU ′ provided in the other game board 5 ′. In other words, in the other game boards 5 ′, the timing at which the counter value for updating the random number for normal symbol determination matches the normal symbol determination value is also completely different from that of the acquired game board 5. In other words, the ID code obtained by disassembling and analyzing the obtained game board 5 is completely useless in other game boards 5 ', that is, other pachinko machines 1'. Even if a momentary power failure occurs at every predetermined interval and the game ball is passed through the gate unit 2003 at every predetermined interval, the movable ball can be opened and closed and the game ball can be received at the second starting port 2004. A gaming state cannot be generated.

[8-2. Main control side power-on processing]
First, when the power to the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, the main control MPU is configured so that the stack pointer is set to a predetermined address as a default. This stack pointer indicates, for example, the address loaded on the stack to temporarily store the contents of the memory element (register) being used, or the return address of this routine when the subroutine is terminated and the routine is returned to. This indicates the address accumulated on the stack for temporary storage, and the stack pointer advances each time the stack is stacked.

  Under control by the main control MPU, as shown in FIGS. 112 and 113, main control side power-on processing is performed. When the main control side power-on process is started, the main control MPU sets the RAM access permission (step S10). The main control built-in RAM can be updated by setting the RAM access permission.

  Subsequent to step S10, the main control MPU performs a power failure clear process (step S12). In this power failure clear process, a wait timer process is performed to determine whether or not a power failure warning signal from the power failure monitoring circuit 1310e is input. The voltage does not increase immediately from when the power is turned on until the voltage reaches the predetermined voltage. On the other hand, when there is a power failure or a momentary power failure (a phenomenon in which the supply of power is temporarily stopped), when the voltage drops and becomes smaller than the power failure warning voltage, a power failure warning signal is input as a power failure warning from the power failure monitoring circuit 1310e. Similarly, when the voltage becomes lower than the power failure warning voltage from when the power is turned on until it reaches the predetermined voltage, a power failure warning signal is input from the power failure monitoring circuit 1310e. Therefore, in the wait timer process, after the power is turned on, the process waits until the voltage becomes larger than the power failure warning voltage and stabilizes. In this embodiment, 200 milliseconds (ms) is set as the wait time (wait timer). Has been.

  Subsequent to step S12, the main control MPU determines whether or not the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 is operated (step S14). As described above, the RWM clear button 633z has a function (RAM clear switch, setting switch button, and error release switch) that also has three functions, and is stored in a predetermined area of the main control built-in RAM here. It operates as a function of a RAM clear switch for completely erasing information. In this determination, the main control MPU determines that the RAM is not cleared when the logic of the signal (RAM clear signal) indicating that the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 has been operated is HI. If the logic of the signal (RAM clear signal) indicating that the push operation part of the RWM clear button 633z is operated is LOW, it is determined that the push operation part of the RWM clear button 633z is not operated. It is determined to be performed, and it is determined that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated. It should be noted that since this is a very short time within the period from the start of the main control side power-on process, which is this routine, to the determination in step S14, actually, the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is pressed. The operator operates the power of the pachinko machine 1 while pressing the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z.

  When determining in step S14 that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated, the main control MPU sets a value 1 to the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG (step S16A). On the other hand, when determining in step S14 that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is not operated, the main control MPU sets the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG to 0 (step S16B). That is, the main control MPU is in a state in which a RAM clear process for initializing a RAM (that is, a main control built-in RAM) built in the main control MPU can be executed for a predetermined time from when the power is turned on. The RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG described above is stored in the main control built-in RAM of the main control MPU, and game information related to games such as probability variation, unpaid prize balls, and other information (for example, the number of main prize balls) This is a flag indicating whether or not various information including information indicating the value of the information output determination counter is to be erased, and is set to a value of 1 when erasing various information and a value of 0 when not erasing various information. . Note that the value of the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG set in step S16A and step S16B is stored in a general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU.

  Subsequent to step S16A or step S16B, it is determined whether or not there is an operation of opening the body frame 4 and turning on the setting key (step S18). In this determination, the main control MPU detects the detection signal from the body frame opening switch 4b for detecting the opening of the body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2, and the setting key at the insertion port 1311ab of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a. Is inserted, and the setting key cylinder 1311ab is turned on by turning it 60 degrees clockwise from the initial position (that is, the rotational position of the setting key cylinder that turns off the setting key switch 1311a). The setting key 1311a is turned ON, and the setting key ON signal from the setting key switch 1311a is used. It should be noted that since it is extremely short in the period from the start of the main control side power-on process, which is this routine, to the determination in step S18, the person who actually turns on the setting key switch 1311a is The pachinko machine 1 is powered on after the setting key switch 1311a is turned on.

  In the determination of step S18, the main control MPU determines that the main body frame 4 is open with respect to the outer frame 2 based on the detection signal from the main body frame opening switch 4b, and sets the key switch according to the setting key ON signal. When it is determined that the setting key 1311a is ON, the value 1 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG (step S20A). On the other hand, in the determination of step S18, the main control MPU determines that the main body frame 4 is not opened with respect to the outer frame 2 based on a detection signal from the main body frame opening switch 4b, and / or a signal for setting key ON. When it is determined that the setting key switch 1311a has not been turned ON, the value 0 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG (step S20B). The setting key ON flag CS-FLG is a current setting value (setting key cylinder of the setting key switch 1311a) stored in a predetermined area of the main control built-in RAM of the main control MPU (described later, a setting value dedicated area in a specific area). 1311ab is a flag indicating whether or not to permit setting change or confirmation display of setting value 1 to setting value 6 at the time when 1311ab is turned on. A value of 1 is set when the confirmation display is permitted, and a value of 0 is set when the setting change of the setting value and the confirmation display are not permitted. Note that the value of the setting key ON flag CS-FLG set in step S20A and step S20B is stored in a general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU.

  Subsequent to step S20A or step S20B, the main control MPU performs a wait time standby process (step S22). In this wait time waiting process, the process waits until the system that performs the drawing control of the peripheral control board 1510 starts (boots). In this embodiment, 10 seconds (s) is set as a standby time (boot timer) until booting. The peripheral control board 1510 can receive various commands from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) when the main control MPU completes the wait time waiting process. Note that when the main control MPU completes the wait time waiting process, the payout control board 633 completes booting in a shorter time than the peripheral control board 1510, and therefore the payout control board 633 has the main control board 1310 (the main control MPU). ) Can receive various commands.

  Subsequent to step S22, the main control MPU determines whether or not a power failure notice signal is input (step S24). As described above, when the power of the pachinko machine 1 is shut off, or when a power failure or a momentary power failure occurs, a power failure warning signal is input from the power failure monitoring circuit 1310e as a power failure warning voltage when the voltage becomes equal to or lower than the power failure warning voltage. The determination in step S24 is made based on this power failure notice signal. In step S24, when the main control MPU determines that there is an input of a power failure warning signal, the main control MPU returns to the determination of step S24 again and repeats the determination of step S24 as long as the power failure warning signal continues to be input. A detailed description will be given later on that the determination in step S24 is performed following the wait time waiting process in step S22.

  If the main control MPU determines in step S24 that there is no power failure warning signal input, whether or not the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is 1. Is determined (step S25). When the main control MPU determines that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is the value 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is the value 1, the predetermined set value change permission condition is satisfied. judge.

  In step S25, when the main control MPU determines that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG has a value of 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG does not have a value of 1, the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG has a value of 1. In addition, it is determined whether or not the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is 0 (step S26). Although the main control MPU determines that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is the value 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is the value 0, the predetermined set value change permission condition is not satisfied. Then, it is determined that various types of information are to be deleted as in the case where the predetermined set value change permission condition is satisfied.

  When the main control MPU determines in step S26 that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is not 0, the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is 0. In addition, it is determined whether or not the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is a value 1 (step S27). When the main control MPU determines that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG has the value 0 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG has the value 1, the predetermined set value display permission condition is satisfied. judge.

  In the determination in step S27, the main control MPU determines that the predetermined set value display permission condition is satisfied, assuming that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is 0 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is 1. If it is determined that there is, the set value confirmation display process is performed (step S28). In this setting value confirmation display processing, the detailed description thereof will be described later, but the setting value stored in the setting value dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM is displayed on the setting display 1310g.

  Subsequent to step S28 or in the determination at step S27, the main control MPU determines that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is 0 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is not 1 (RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG Is determined to be 0 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is 0), a checksum is calculated (step S29). This checksum is calculated by considering various information stored in the main control built-in RAM as numerical values.

  Subsequent to step S29, the main control MPU sets the calculated checksum value (sum value) to the checksum value (sum value) stored in the main control side power-off processing (power-off) described later. It is determined whether or not they match (step S30). In step S30, when the main control MPU determines that they match, the main control MPU determines whether or not the backup flag BK-FLG has a value of 1 (step S32). The backup flag BK-FLG stores game information such as various information, checksum value (sum value) and backup flag BK-FLG in the main control built-in RAM in the main control side power-off process described later. This flag is set to a value of 1 when the main control-side power-off process is normally terminated, and a value of 0 when the main-control-side power-off process is not terminated normally. In the inspection process of the production line of the main control board 1310, when the main control board 1310 is first turned on after being manufactured for inspection, the checksum is calculated in step S29 and the determination is made in step S30. A detailed description will be given later.

  When the main control MPU determines in step S30 that the checksum values (sum values) do not match, or in step S32, the main control MPU determines that the backup flag BK-FLG is not 1. When it is (value 0), that is, when it is determined that the main control side power-off process has not been terminated normally, an error display process is performed (step S33), and an infinite loop is entered. Due to this infinite loop, the state where the error display processing has been completed is maintained, and the game cannot proceed at all, and the power of the pachinko machine 1 is cut off and the power is turned on again. This error display process will be described in detail later. However, if it is determined that there is an abnormality in the contents of the main control built-in RAM, or if the main control side power-off process has not been completed normally when the power is shut off. If the determination is made, an error message indicating that the content stored in the main control built-in RAM is abnormal (or cannot be trusted) is displayed. In the present embodiment, the main control MPU displays the letter E on the setting display 1310g as an error display.

  Note that the pachinko machine 1 is powered off, the main body frame 4 is opened with respect to the outer frame 2, and the setting key cylinder 1311ab is in the initial position (that is, the rotation position of the setting key cylinder that turns off the setting key switch 1311a). This routine is again performed by turning on the power of the pachinko machine 1 while operating the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 after turning it clockwise by 60 degrees clockwise. The main control side power-on process is started. In step S14, the main control MPU determines that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated, and in step S16A described above, sets the value 1 to the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG. At the same time, in the determination in step S18 described above, it is determined that the main body frame 4 is open with respect to the outer frame 2 based on the detection signal from the main body frame opening switch 4b, and the setting key switch 1311a is determined based on the setting key ON signal. Is set to ON and the value 1 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG in step S20A described above. Therefore, in the determination in step S25 described above, the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is set to the value. 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is a value 1, It is determined that the set value change permission condition is satisfied, and after the setting change process in step S37, which will be described later, in a process in step S38, which will be described later, a specific area is excluded from the entire area of the main control built-in RAM. By clearing, the RAM error can be canceled and the game can proceed (hereinafter referred to as “first RAM error canceling method”).

  As a method different from the first RAM error canceling method, the pachinko machine 1 is powered off and the setting key cylinder 1311ab remains at the initial position (that is, the setting key cylinder rotating position at which the setting key switch 1311a is turned off). Thus, by turning on the power of the pachinko machine 1 while pressing the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633, the main control side power-on process, which is this routine, is started again. In step S14, the main control MPU determines that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated, and in step S16A described above, sets the value 1 to the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG. On the other hand, in the above-described step S18, it is determined that the main body frame 4 is not opened with respect to the outer frame 2 based on the detection signal from the main body frame opening switch 4b, and / or the setting key is turned on by the setting key ON signal. Since it is determined that the switch 1311a is not set to ON and the value 0 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG in step S20B described above, the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is determined in step S26 described above. Is 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is 0 That is, the predetermined set value change permission condition is not satisfied, but it is determined that various information is to be deleted in the same manner as when the predetermined set value change permission condition is satisfied. By clearing all areas of the built-in RAM except for a specific area, it is possible to cancel the RAM error and advance the game (hereinafter referred to as “second RAM error canceling method”). .

  Thus, in this embodiment, when the main control MPU determines that the checksum values (sum values) do not match in the determination in step S30, or in the determination in step S32, the main control MPU When the backup flag BK-FLG is not a value 1 (value 0), that is, when it is determined that the main control side power-off process has not ended normally, an error display in step S33 is performed, and the main control built-in RAM When there is an abnormality in the content stored in the memory (or the information cannot be trusted), two cancellation methods, a first RAM error cancellation method and a second RAM error cancellation method It can be done by. As a result, when there is no need to change the setting value at all, the second RAM error canceling method using the RWM clear button 633z can be used to cancel the RAM error.

  On the other hand, if the main control MPU determines in step S32 that the backup flag BK-FLG has a value of 1, that is, if it is determined that the main control side power-off process has been completed normally, the main control MPU has a built-in main control as a power recovery. A RAM work area is set (step S34). In this setting, the power recovery time information is read from the ROM (that is, the main control internal ROM) built in the main control MPU, and the power recovery time information is set in the work area of the main control built-in RAM. Thereby, various information is read from the game backup information, and various commands corresponding to the various information are stored in a predetermined storage area of the main control built-in RAM. In addition, the main control MPU proceeds with the game based on the set value stored in the set value dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM. Note that “power recovery” refers to a state in which power is turned on from a power-off state, a state in which power is subsequently recovered from a power failure or a momentary power interruption, and unauthorized means (for example, an unauthorized person is placed on the skirt of his arm). A state in which the main control board 1310 is irradiated with a high frequency from the hidden high-frequency output device) and the main control MPU itself is reset and then restored is also included.

  Subsequent to step S34, the main control MPU sets a value 0 to the backup flag BK-FLG (step S36). As a result, various information, checksum value (sum value), and the like are changed by performing various processes thereafter, so that the main control side power-off process described later is terminated normally and the backup flag BK- If a value of 1 is not set in FLG, all areas of the main control built-in RAM are cleared except for a specific area, as will be described later.

  On the other hand, in the determination of step S25, the main control MPU determines that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is a value 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is a value 1, that is, a predetermined set value change. When it is determined that the permission condition is satisfied, a setting change process is performed (step S37). The setting change process will be described in detail later, but is performed based on a signal from the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633. As described above, the RWM clear button 633z has a function (RAM clear switch, setting switching button, and error release switch) that also has three functions. Here, setting switching for selecting and switching a setting value is performed. Acts as a button function. A signal (setting value selection switching signal) indicating that every time the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is operated is input, the setting value is changed and displayed on the setting display 1310g, and the setting key switch 1311a is displayed. When the setting key cylinder 1311ab is turned off from the ON operation, the changed setting value is determined based on the OFF signal from the setting key switch 1311a and stored in a predetermined area of the RAM built in the main control MPU. To do.

  In the process of step S37 or the determination of step S26, the main control MPU determines that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is the value 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is the value 0, that is, predetermined. If the set value change permission condition is not satisfied, but it is determined that various types of information are to be erased as in the case where the predetermined set value change permission condition is satisfied, the specific area is excluded from the entire area of the main control built-in RAM. (Step S38). Here, the main control MPU is performed by writing the value 0 to a predetermined area of the main control built-in RAM (an area excluding a specific area among all areas of the main control built-in RAM). In the present embodiment, when the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is not 0 (value 1), that is, when it is determined that various types of information are to be erased, the main control built-in RAM is always terminated when the setting change process ends. The predetermined area of the main control built-in RAM is excluded (the predetermined area of the main control built-in RAM (the area excluding the specific area of all the main control built-in RAM)) is cleared. Here, the “specific area” is a count of the number of game balls collected by the set value dedicated area in which the set value is stored and the out port 1008 provided in the game area 5 a formed in the game board 5. And an out-sphere counting dedicated area in which results (total number) are stored. The set value exclusive area stores a set value that is changed in a setting change process described later, and the out ball count exclusive area is a game ball collected by the out port 1008 that is counted in a ball count process described later. The count result (total number) of numbers is stored.

  The main control MPU may read and set a predetermined value from the main control built-in ROM as an initial value. Also, the main control MPU is a logic of a signal (RAM clear signal) that indicates that the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 operates as a RAM clear switch and the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated. Is a command to clear the RAM, when various information is erased, when the sum values do not match, or when the main control side power-off process is not normally terminated, the nonvolatile RAM of the main control MPU is stored. A unique ID code stored in advance is taken out, and an initial value deriving process for always deriving the same fixed value from the fixed numerical range of the counter that updates the random number for determination per ordinary symbol based on the taken out ID code is performed. The fixed value is set to the normal value determination random number for normal symbol determination for use in determining the initial value of the determination random number for normal symbol described above. Tosuru.

  Subsequent to step S38, the main control MPU sets the work area of the main control built-in RAM as an initial setting (step S40). This setting is performed by reading the initial information from the main control built-in ROM and setting the initial information in the work area of the main control built-in RAM. Thereby, the game backup information is initialized, and for example, the value of the main winning ball number information output determination counter is set (set) to the initial value 0. In addition, the main control MPU proceeds with the game based on the set value stored in the set value dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM.

  Subsequent to step S36 or step S40, the main control MPU performs initial value setting and activation setting of the main control built-in WDT (step S41). Here, a watchdog timer control register (hereinafter referred to as “the main control MPU”) for setting an initial value in the main control built-in WDT for monitoring whether or not the operation (system) of the main control MPU is operating normally. The timer setting value is set in the “WDT control register”), the main control built-in WDT is started, and the time until the main control MPU is reset is started. When the main control built-in WDT is activated, the time counting by the main control built-in WDT is started, and the watchdog timer clear register (built-in to the main control MPU) is reached by the time when the counted time reaches the time set by the timer set value. Hereinafter, if the timer clear setting value is not set in “WDT clear register”), the main control MPU is forcibly reset by the main control built-in WDT. On the other hand, when the main control built-in WDT is activated and timing is started, if the timer clear setting value is set in the WDT clear register before the time measured reaches the time set by the timer setting value, The time measurement by the main control built-in WDT is cleared, and the time measurement is started again. In this way, the operation (system) of the main control MPU operates normally by repeatedly performing the process of clearing the time measured by the main control built-in WDT until the time set by the timer set value is reached and starting the time measurement again. It can be monitored whether or not.

  Subsequent to step S41, the main control MPU performs an interrupt initial setting (step S42). This setting is to set an interrupt cycle when a main control timer interrupt process described later is performed. In this embodiment, it is set to 4 milliseconds (ms).

  Subsequent to step S42, the main control MPU performs serial communication initial setting (step S44). Here, various serial input / output ports (for example, serial input / output ports (reception channels and transmission channels) for the payout control board 633) and serial input / output ports (reception channels and transmission channels) for the peripheral control board 1510 are incorporated in the main control MPU. ) Corresponding to the transmission serial port prescaler, the transmission speed is set and the parity is set, and the transmission serial port control register is set to initialize the transmission circuit and set transmission permission.

  Subsequent to step S44, the main control MPU performs test signal output port initialization setting (step S46). Here, a test signal output port (not shown) for outputting various types of inspection information is initialized (set to OFF data output) when the power is turned on in the testing institution of the gaming machine.

  Subsequent to step S46, the main control MPU performs activation setting of the main random number circuit with built-in main control (step S48). Here, among various random numbers related to the game, a special random number for use in determining whether or not to generate a big hit gaming state is used, and a random number is stored in a hard random number control register built in the main control MPU for updating by hardware. The setting such as latching and acquisition is performed, and activation of the hard random number circuit with built-in main control is set in the hard random number setting register. When the main control built-in hard random number circuit is activated by these settings, other values within a predetermined numerical range are extracted one after another without duplication at high speed based on the clock signal input to the main control MPU. Once all the values in the numerical range have been extracted, one value in the predetermined numerical range is extracted again, and the predetermined numerical range is determined at high speed based on the clock signal input to the main control MPU. The other values are extracted one after another without overlapping. The main control MPU outputs a latch signal to the main control built-in hard random number circuit when acquiring a random number (random number value) from the main control built-in hard random number circuit, and the main control built-in hardware when the latch signal is input. The random number (random value) extracted by the random number circuit is acquired from a hard random number latch register built in the main control MPU. The main control MPU sets the acquired random number value as a special random number.

  Subsequent to step S48, the main control MPU performs reservation setting for a command to be transmitted when the power is turned on (step S50). Here, the power is turned on to notify that the power is turned on (power recovery) based on the power recovery time information set in the work area of the main control built-in RAM in the setting of the work area of the main control built-in RAM in step S34. The transmission information storage area of the main control built-in RAM as transmission information by creating a power-on status command, a power-on main control return destination command, and a power-on main prize ball number information output determination counter notification command To remember. In the transmission information storage area of the main control built-in RAM, in the setting of the work area of the main control built-in RAM in step S34, various commands are read from the game backup information and various commands corresponding to the various information are stored. is there. In such a case, first after completion of transmission of various commands according to game information among various information, then power-on status command, power-on main control return destination command, and power-on main prize ball number information An output determination counter notification command is transmitted. These commands are transmitted in the main control side timer interrupt processing described later. A detailed description will be given later of reservation setting of a command to be transmitted at power-on in step S50.

  Subsequent to step S50, the main control MPU performs interrupt permission setting (step S52). With this setting, the main control side timer interrupt processing described later is repeated every interrupt cycle set in step S42, that is, every 4 ms.

  Subsequent to step S52, the main control MPU determines whether or not a power failure notice signal is input (step S54). As described above, when the power of the pachinko machine 1 is cut off, or when a power failure or instantaneous power failure occurs, a power failure warning signal is input from the power failure monitoring circuit to the main control MPU as a power failure warning voltage as described above. The The determination in step S54 is made based on this power failure notice signal.

  If the main control MPU determines in step S54 that there is no power failure warning signal input, it performs a non-winning random number update process (step S56). In this non-winning random number update process, the reach determination random number, the variable display pattern random number, the big hit symbol initial value determining random number, the small hit symbol initial value determining random number, and the like are updated. In this way, in the non-winning random number update process, random numbers that are not involved in the winning determination (big hit determination) are updated by software. It should be noted that the above-described random number for normal symbol determination, initial value determination random number for normal symbol determination, random number for normal symbol variation display pattern, and the like described above are also updated by this non-winning random number update process.

  Following step S56, the process returns to step S54 again, and the main control MPU determines whether or not a power failure warning signal has been input. Step S54 to Step S56 are repeated. The processes in steps S54 to S56 are referred to as “main control side main process”.

  On the other hand, when the main control MPU determines in step S54 that a power failure warning signal has been input, the main control MPU performs interrupt prohibition setting (step S58). By this setting, the main control side timer interrupt processing described later is not performed, writing to the main control built-in RAM is prevented, and rewriting of various information including game information and other information described above is protected.

  Subsequent to step S58, the main control MPU starts outputting a power failure clear signal (step S60). Here, the same process as the process that started outputting the power failure clear signal in the power failure clear process in step S12 is performed.

  Subsequent to step S60, the main control MPU stops the drive signals output to, for example, the various displays of the function display unit 1400, the start port solenoid 2404, the attacker solenoid 2405, the base monitor 1310h, and the like (step S62).

  Subsequent to step S62, the main control MPU calculates a checksum and stores the calculated value (step S64). The checksum is calculated by regarding the game information in the work area of the main control built-in RAM as a numerical value, excluding the storage area for the checksum value (sum value) and the backup flag BK-FLG value.

  Subsequent to step S64, the main control MPU sets a value 1 to the backup flag BK-FLG (step S66). Thereby, storage of game backup information is completed.

  Subsequent to step S66, the main control MPU performs a RAM access prohibition setting (step S68). Since the RAM access prohibition setting prevents access to the main control built-in RAM, it is possible to prevent the contents of the main control built-in RAM from being updated.

  Following step S68, an infinite loop is entered. In this infinite loop, the timer clear setting value is set in the WDT clear register built in the main control MPU for the main control built-in WDT activated in step S41, the time measurement by the main control built-in WDT is cleared, and time measurement is started again. When the control cannot be performed, the main control MPU is forcibly reset by the main control built-in WDT. Thereafter, the main control MPU performs this main control side power-on process again. The processing from step S58 to step S68 and the infinite loop are referred to as “main control side power-off processing”.

  As described above, when the main control MPU is affected by electrical noise, the main control MPU is forcibly reset by the built-in reset circuit. In this case, the main control MPU cannot perform the determination in step S54 and cannot perform the main control side power-off process. For this reason, when the main control MPU is forcedly reset by the built-in reset circuit, the main control MPU is reset without executing the main control side power-off process, and the main control side power-on process is executed again. . That is, since the main control side power-off process is not executed, the checksum value (sum value) in the main control-side power-off process immediately before the forced reset by the built-in reset circuit is not stored. The checksum value (sum value) stored by executing the main control-side power-off process at the time of power-off and the checksum calculated in step S29 when a forced reset is performed by the built-in reset circuit. The value (sum value) cannot match, and a check sum (sum value) error of the main control built-in RAM always occurs, and in the process of step S38, a specific area is excluded from all areas of the main control built-in RAM. It will be completely erased (cleared).

  The pachinko machine 1 (main control MPU) is reset when a power failure occurs or is momentarily stopped, and this main control side power-on process is performed by restoring power thereafter.

  In step S30, it is checked whether or not the game backup information stored in the main control built-in RAM is normal. Subsequently, in step S32, whether or not the main control side power-off process has been normally completed. Are inspected. In this way, by checking the game backup information stored in the main control built-in RAM twice, it is checked whether or not the game backup information is stored by an illegal act.

  Further, in the determination in step S25, it is determined that the predetermined set value change permission condition is satisfied, assuming that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is the value 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is the value 1. If so, the setting change process of step S37 is performed, and in the process of step S38, the entire area of the main control built-in RAM is completely erased (cleared) except for the specific area. In the determination of step S26, the RAM clear notification flag RCL -When FLG is value 1 and setting key ON flag CS-FLG is value 0, that is, a predetermined set value change permission condition is not satisfied, but a predetermined set value change permission condition is satisfied If it is determined that various types of information are to be deleted in the same manner as in step S38, the entire area of the main control built-in RAM is specified in the process of step S38. With the exception of the band to completely erase (clear). As described above, when the pressing operation unit is operated at the time of power recovery (more precisely, when the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 operates as a RAM clear switch, the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is changed. When the power of the pachinko machine 1 is turned on while pressing, the main value can be changed even if the setting value can be changed and determined (when the main control MPU performs the setting change process). The control MPU always clears a predetermined area of the main control built-in RAM. This is when the RWM clear button 633z operates as a RAM clear switch, and when the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is pressed, for example, when the game hall is closed, the pachinko machine 1 Is in a state that is advantageous to the player (for example, a state in which the probability variation (probability variation) is reached), it is necessary to erase (clear) the game backup information described above before the next business start. Therefore, an attendant such as a store clerk of the game hall needs to turn on the pachinko machine 1 while pressing the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z when the RWM clear button 633z operates as a RAM clear switch. In addition, when the setting value is determined to be changed, the setting value obtained by the setting value before the setting changing process is obtained even when the current setting value is maintained when the setting changing process is performed. It is necessary to erase (clear) game backup information including various information such as game information from the main control built-in RAM. As described above, the setting key is an important key that can be used to check the current setting value in addition to changing the setting value. Only possession is permitted and limited to 2-3 people. In the present embodiment, even if the setting value is not determined to be changed, that is, even if there is no setting key possessed only by a limited specific person, an attendant such as a game hall clerk erases (clears) the game backup information. When the RWM clear button 633z operates as a RAM clear switch when it is necessary to turn on the pachinko machine 1 while pressing the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z, the game backup information is mainly stored. It can be erased (cleared) from the control built-in RAM.

  Here, the point where the presence / absence of the power failure notice signal in step S24 is determined following the wait time waiting process in step S22 will be described. First, the problem in the case where the presence / absence of the power failure notice signal in step S24 is not determined, that is, the problem in the case where the process after step S26 is promoted after the wait time waiting process in step S22 will be described.

  As described above, when the power supply from the island facility in the game hall is cut off to the VDD terminal which is the power supply terminal of the main control MPU, the electric charge charged in the electrolytic capacitor MC2 is charged. It is applied as DC + 5V over a period of about 7 milliseconds (ms) after the occurrence of a power failure or instantaneous power failure. That is, even when the power supply from the island facility in the game hall is cut off due to a momentary power failure or a power failure, the electric charge charged to the hardware called the electrolytic capacitor MC2 is applied as DC + 5V, so that the island in the game hall The main control side power-off process can be completed within a period from when the power supply to the facility is cut off until a time of about 7 ms elapses. This is because when a player is playing a game, that is, when a main control side main process or a main control side timer interrupt process described later is being performed, a power failure or a momentary power failure occurs and the island facilities of the game hall In the case where the power supply from is cut off, it is possible to reliably complete the main control side power-off process.

  However, as an extremely rare phenomenon, a standby time (boot timer: in this embodiment) until the system that performs drawing control of the peripheral control board 1510 starts (boots) in the wait time standby process in step S22 at the time of power recovery. If a momentary power failure or a power failure occurs immediately before the waiting time is reached, a hardware called an electrolytic capacitor MC2 is connected to the VDD terminal which is the power supply terminal of the main control MPU. Although the electric charge charged to is applied as DC +5 V, the interrupt initial setting is performed in step S42 within the period of about 7 ms, and then the interrupt permission setting is performed in step S52, whereby the main control side described later Even if timer interrupt processing is performed and the contents of the main control built-in RAM are updated, the main control side power-on processing is performed. Kicking it may not be able to complete processing upon the main control side power-off. For this reason, the main control side power-on process is started again at the time of power recovery without storing the calculated value of the checksum based on the contents of the main control built-in RAM.

  Then, the main control side power-on process is started at the time of the current power recovery, and the wait time waiting process in step S22 is completed without causing an instantaneous power failure or a power failure. Thereafter, in step S29, the main control built-in RAM If the value calculated in the checksum based on the contents of the checksum is compared with the value stored in the main control built-in RAM immediately before the instantaneous power failure or power failure occurs in step S30, the checksum value should match. In step S38, all of the main control built-in RAM is cleared except for a specific area. In other words, when the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 operates as a RAM clear switch at the time of power recovery, the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is operated by a staff member such as a store clerk in the game hall and the game called RAM clear. There is a problem that the game backup information stored in the main control built-in RAM is forcibly erased (cleared) even if there is no indication by a staff member such as a hall clerk.

  Therefore, in this embodiment, immediately after the wait time standby process in step S22, a process for determining whether or not a power failure warning signal is input is provided as step S24, and when a power failure warning signal is input, Returning to the determination in step S24, the determination in step S24 is repeated as long as the power failure warning signal continues to be input. This prevents the game from progressing. Although the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is set to a value in the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG in step S16A or step S16B before the wait time waiting process in step S22, the value of the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is set as described above. Since it is stored in the general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the control MPU, even if the RAM access permission is set in step S10, the contents (game information) of the main control built-in RAM are not changed at all.

  As described above, immediately after the wait time waiting process in step S22, a process for determining whether or not a power failure warning signal is input is provided as step S24. If the power to the pachinko machine 1 is cut off after waiting in the wait time waiting process of S22 (when determined by the determination of step S24), the process returns to the determination of step S24 again, and as long as the power failure warning signal continues to be input, By repeatedly performing the determination in step S24, the game cannot proceed, and various information including game information and other information (for example, information indicating the value of the main prize ball number information output determination counter). Can be prevented from being updated, and the checksum calculation result does not fluctuate. Thereby, when restarting, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 determines that the checksum calculation result of step S28 matches the checksum calculation stored value of step S64. Therefore, the game information that is stored and held in the main control built-in RAM is not initialized immediately before a momentary power failure or power failure occurs. Therefore, at the time of power recovery, it is possible to prevent the game information immediately before the occurrence of a momentary power failure or a power failure from being initialized.

  Further, immediately after the wait time waiting process in step S22, a process for determining whether or not a power failure warning signal is input is provided as step S24, and when a power failure warning signal is not input (that is, in step S22). When it is determined by the determination in step S24 that the power to the pachinko machine 1 is not cut off after waiting in the wait time waiting process), the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 is performing the game, and the pachinko machine Even when the power to 1 is cut off, the game information by the progress of the game and other information (for example, the number of main prize balls) is supplied to the VDD terminal which is the power supply terminal of the main control MPU by supplying the power from the electrolytic capacitor MC2. Step of backup processing for storing various types of information including information indicating the value of the information output determination counter) Since the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 can complete the main control side power-off process composed of the process of 58 to step S68 and the infinite loop, the main control MPU of the main control MPU When restarting, it is determined that the checksum calculation result in step S28 matches the checksum calculation result in the backup process (that is, the checksum calculation value stored in step S64). Therefore, the game information that is stored and held in the main control built-in RAM is not initialized immediately before a momentary power failure or power failure occurs. That is, the main control board 1310 can be activated by being restored to the game information immediately before the momentary power failure or power failure occurs.

  Further, immediately after the wait time waiting process in step S22, when it is determined in step S24 that a power failure warning signal has been input, the main control MPU is forcibly reset by the main control built-in WDT, thereby allowing the contents of the main control built-in RAM to be reset. The main control side power-off process can be started again without updating the process at all. On the other hand, immediately after the wait time standby process in step S22, if it is determined in step S24 that the power failure warning signal has not been input, As a result, it is possible to reliably complete the main control side power-off process within the “instantaneous power failure or power failure securing period” of about 7 ms. That is, in this embodiment, when the main control side power-on process is performed at the time of power recovery, a power failure from the island facility of the game hall is interrupted due to an instantaneous power failure or a power failure, and the main control side The charge charged to the electrolytic capacitor MC2 is applied to the VDD terminal, which is the power supply terminal of the MPU, as a direct current + 5V over a period of about 7 milliseconds (ms) after the occurrence of a power failure or a momentary power failure. Therefore, if the main control side power-off process cannot be completed within the “instantaneous power outage or power supply securing period” of about 7 ms by the hardware of the electrolytic capacitor MC2, immediately after the wait time waiting process in step S22. In step S24, it is determined whether or not a power failure warning signal is input. If a power failure notification signal is input, the process returns to the determination in step S24 again. As long as remain input power failure warning signal, by repeating the determination of the step S24, so as not be able to perform the progress of a game.

  By preventing the progress of the game by such software, the step after step S24 (specifically, the interrupt initialization is performed in step S42, and then the interrupt permission is performed in step S52. The contents of the main control built-in RAM (game information and other information (for example, main prize ball number information output determination) are determined by preventing the progress to the control flow of setting and starting main control timer interruption processing described later. The system adopts a mechanism that can avoid updating various information) including information indicating the value of the counter for use. Thus, when a power failure or a momentary power failure occurs and the power supply from the island equipment in the game hall is cut off, the contents of the main control built-in RAM (game information and other information (for example, main prize ball number information output determination) The various information (including information indicating the value of the counter for the counter), etc.) is completely covered by software so that the main control side power-off process is reliably completed and the contents of the main control built-in RAM (game information, and By configuring it in two parts, such as various pieces of information including other information (for example, information indicating the value of the main prize ball number information output determination counter), etc., so that it is not changed at all. The contents of the main control built-in RAM (game information, and other information (for example, various information including the value of the main prize ball number information output determination counter)) are reliably prevented from being changed. So that the can.

  Next, a description will be given of the reservation setting of the command to be transmitted when the power is turned on in step S50. In step S50, as described above, the fact that the power has been turned on (recovered) based on the power recovery time information set in the work area of the main control built-in RAM in the setting of the work area of the main control built-in RAM in step S34. In order to communicate, a power-on status command classified as power-on, a power-on main control return destination command, and a power-on main prize ball number information output determination counter notification command are created and main control is built in as transmission information Store in the transmission information storage area of the RAM. This power-on main control return destination command mainly includes information for instructing the driving state of the start port solenoid 2404 and information for instructing the driving state of the attacker solenoid 2405. Here, first, a problem in the case where the power-on main control return destination command does not include the information indicating the driving state of the starter solenoid 2404 and the information indicating the driving state of the attacker solenoid 2405, that is, A problem will be described in the case where the reservation setting of the command to be transmitted when the power is turned on in the power-on main control return destination command is not performed in step S50.

  For example, when the peripheral control board 1510 controls the display of the big hit game state screen (for example, the big hit game effect screen) in the display area of the effect display device 1600, the main control board 1310 drives the attacker solenoid 2405. When a momentary power failure or power failure occurs when the special prize opening 2005 is opened by the opening / closing member and then power is restored, the main control board 1310 performs main control in the setting of the work area of the main control built-in RAM in step S34. Based on the power recovery information set in the work area of the built-in RAM, the game state immediately before the occurrence of a momentary power failure or power failure is restored, so that the attacker solenoid 2405 starts to be driven and the special winning opening 2005 opens and closes. It will transfer from the state closed by the member to the open state.

  However, when a momentary power failure or a power failure occurs, the peripheral control board 1510 receives various commands from the main control board 1310 and returns when power is restored. Then, when the power is restored thereafter, the peripheral control board 1510 can return based on the probability and the time-short state indicated by the power-on state command received from the main control board 1310 at the time of power restoration. However, when the main control board 1310 is generating a big hit gaming state as a gaming state, if an instantaneous power failure or a power failure occurs, and then power is restored, the peripheral control board 1510 is in the main control board 1310 at the time of power restoration. Even if the screen can be displayed in the display area of the effect display device 1600 and returned according to the probability and the short time state based on the probability and the short time state indicated by the power-on state command received from It is not possible to indicate at all which round of the That is, for example, a main winning board 1 count display command that indicates the number of game balls that have been entered into the big winning opening 2005 and detected by the big winning opening sensor 2403 when the game ball enters the big winning opening 2005 is detected by the main control board. Even if 1310 transmits to the peripheral control board 1510 and the peripheral control board 1510 receives it, the peripheral control board 1510 produces the number of game balls that have entered the big prize opening 2005 on the screen according to the probability and the short time state. Even if it can be displayed in the display area of the display device 1600, it is not possible to display which round of the big hit gaming state (that is, how many rounds).

  In such a situation, for example, when the main control board 1310 finishes four rounds (fourth round) of the big hit gaming state, the driving of the attacker solenoid 2405 is stopped and the big prize opening 2005 is opened by the opening / closing member. From the main control board 1310 to the peripheral control board 1510 for instructing the transition from the existing state to the closed state (that is, closing start of the round of the big prize opening 2005 of the attacker unit 2100). When the main control board 1310 starts the fifth round of the big hit gaming state (fifth round), the attack solenoid 2405 starts to be driven and the big winning opening 2005 is opened from the closed state by the opening / closing member. To move to the current state (that is, the fifth round of the big prize opening 2005) To send a special winning opening open the fifth display command instructing the open start) from the main control board 1310 to the peripheral control board 1510. As a result, the peripheral control board 1510 finally switches the screen of the start of the five rounds of the big hit gaming state from the screen corresponding to the above-described probability and time reduction state, and displays it on the display area of the effect display device 1600.

  In addition, for example, a screen (for example, a player indicating that the movable piece is open) that indicates that the game ball can be received at the second start port 2004 and the game state is advantageous to the player. When the peripheral control board 1510 performs display control on the display area of the effect display device 1600, the main control board 1310 drives the start opening solenoid 2404 to open the movable piece, thereby the second start opening. When a momentary power failure or power failure occurs while 2004 is open, and then power is restored, the main control board 1310 sets the main control built-in RAM in the setting of the main control built-in RAM in step S34. Based on the power recovery time information set in the work area, the game state immediately before the occurrence of a momentary power failure or power failure is restored to start driving the start-up solenoid 2404 and close the movable piece. So that the transition to the state for closing the second start-up port 2004 by work.

  However, when a momentary power failure or a power failure occurs, the peripheral control board 1510 receives various commands from the main control board 1310 and returns when power is restored. When power is restored thereafter, the peripheral control board 1510 can be restored based on the power-on state command received from the main control board 1310 at the time of power restoration. However, when the main control board 1310 is in a gaming state and a gaming state in which a gaming ball can be received at the second start port 2004 is generated and a gaming state advantageous to the player is generated, a momentary power failure or power failure occurs. Then, when the power is restored after that, the peripheral control board 1510 displays the screen according to the probability and the time-short state based on the probability and the time-short state indicated by the power-on state command received from the main control board 1310 at the time of power recovery. Even if it can be displayed in the display area of the effect display device 1600 and returned, the gaming state is such that the gaming ball can be received at the second starting port 2004 and the gaming state is advantageous to the player. The peripheral control board 1510 cannot display the screen to convey in the display area of the effect display device 1600 at all. For this reason, the player who sits in front of the pachinko machine is surprised that a momentary power failure or power failure has occurred, and at the time of power recovery, the game ball is received at the second start port 2004 immediately before the momentary power failure or power failure occurs. In some cases, it is forgotten that the gaming state is enabled. In such a case, the gaming state is restored to the second starting port 2004 as a gaming state at the time of power recovery. Nevertheless, the game is not displayed on the display area of the effect display device 1600 at the time of power recovery (that is, the game instruction screen for entering the game ball into the second start port 2004) is not displayed. There was also a problem that the player would not know what kind of game he played.

  As described above, in the two examples described above, there is a problem that it is not possible to quickly return to the gaming state immediately before the instantaneous power failure or power failure after the power is restored. In other words, a player who sits in front of a pachinko machine mistakes for a momentary power outage or power failure, and then recovers after power recovery, and the pachinko machine system appears to be in a clumped state, a so-called frozen state. There was a problem.

  Therefore, in this embodiment, when the main control board 1310 is turned on (including when the power is turned on, and also when the power is restored due to a power failure or a momentary power failure), the power-on state command And the power-on main control return destination command to the peripheral control board 1510, in step S50, the power-on state command classified as power-on, the power-on main control return destination command, and the power-on A main prize ball number information output determination counter notification command is created and stored as transmission information in a transmission information storage area of the main control built-in RAM. These commands are transmitted in a main control timer interrupt process described later.

  Thereby, the peripheral control board 1510 is based on the power-on state command and the power-on main control return destination command received from the main control board 1310. When an instantaneous power failure or power failure occurs, and then the power is restored, the attacker solenoid 2405 starts to be driven as the return destination of the main control board 1310, and the special winning opening 2005 is opened from the state closed by the opening / closing member. Since the peripheral control board 1510 can be informed of the transition to the state, the peripheral control board 1510 has a screen that specifies that it is the fourth round of the big hit gaming state (that is, a screen showing how many rounds it is) Can not be displayed in the display area of the effect display device 1600, but the game is in the big hit gaming state and the attacker solenoid 2 A screen that informs that the winning prize opening 2005 is opened by the opening and closing member by starting the drive of 05 (for example, “It is a big hit. The big winning opening is open. The game ball is inserted into the big winning opening. The screen that tells the player the message “Please play the game to play a ball” is displayed in the display area of the effect display device 1600, and the player sitting on the front of the pachinko machine will receive the grand prize opening 2005 after power is restored. In the above example, for example, a gaming state in which a gaming ball can be received at the second starting port 2004 becomes advantageous to the player. When a power failure occurs after a momentary power failure or power failure occurs, driving of the start port solenoid 2404 is started to open the movable piece as a return destination of the main control board 1310. Screen indicating that the second starting port 2004 is open (for example, “A movable piece is open. Please play a game so that a game ball enters the second starting port.” Is displayed on the display area of the effect display device 1600 and the player sitting on the front of the pachinko machine enters the game ball into the second starting port 2004 after power is restored. A game of making a ball can be instructed.

  As a result, when an instantaneous power failure or a power failure occurs and then the power is restored, the return destination of the peripheral control board 1510 can be finely instructed on the main control board 1310 side. Therefore, it is possible to quickly return to the gaming state immediately before the momentary power failure or power failure after the power recovery. In other words, a player who sits in front of a pachinko machine mistakes for a momentary power outage or power failure, and then recovers after power recovery, and the pachinko machine system appears to be in a clumped state, a so-called frozen state. This can be prevented.

  Next, in the main control board inspection process, which is an inspection process for the production line of the main control board 1310, the checksum of step S29 when the main control board 1310 is powered on for the first time after being manufactured for inspection. Calculation and determination in step S30 will be described. In the main control board inspection process, when the main control board 1310 is powered on for the first time after being manufactured for inspection, the main control board is configured by the above-described processes of steps S58 to S68, which are backup processes, and an infinite loop. Since the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 has never executed the control-side power-off process, even if the checksum based on the contents of the main control built-in RAM is calculated in step S29, in step S30 In the comparison determination, the checksum values cannot be matched, and are always cleared in step S38 except for the specific area in the entire area of the main control built-in RAM.

  Thereby, when the reservation setting of the command to be transmitted at the time of power-on is performed in step S50, the power-on state command classified as power-on, the power-on main control return destination command, and the power-on main prize ball number information By creating an output determination counter notification command and storing it as transmission information in the transmission information storage area of the main control built-in RAM, a power-on state command, a power-on main control return destination command, and a power-on main prize ball Only three commands, the number information output determination counter notification command, are stored in the transmission information storage area of the main control built-in RAM as transmission information. In these main control side timer interrupt processing, which will be described later, first, a power-on state command is transmitted, followed by a power-on main control return destination command, followed by a power-on main prize ball number. An information output determination counter notification command is transmitted. By utilizing this, in the main control board inspection process, when the main control board 1310 is first turned on after manufacturing for inspection, a power-on state command is sent from the main control board 1310 as the first command. It is transmitted to the inspection device in the main control board inspection process.

  By the way, the power-on status command is an RWM clear button on the payout control board 633 when power is turned on (including when power is turned on, and when power is restored by power failure or instantaneous power failure). When the 633z operates as a RAM clear switch and the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated to clear the RAM, information indicating that, and at power-on (in addition to power-on, Including power recovery and power recovery after a power failure or short interruption), any of the low probability short-time state, high probability short-time state, low probability non-short-time state, and high probability non-short-time state Information indicating whether to return in the state (probability and short time state) and information indicating the model code of the pachinko machine. Here, a problem in the case where the power-on state command does not include information indicating the model code of the pachinko machine will be described.

  The model code of the pachinko machine is the copyright of which work when creating the so-called max type, middle type and sweet digital type as the pachinko machine 1 (more precisely, the main control board 1310), What kind of game specifications (for example, when the probability variation occurs, the state is continued until the next jackpot gaming state occurs, in addition to the number of special symbol variations (for example, 30 times or 70 times) ), It is possible to specify whether the game specifications (such as so-called ST machines) in which probability fluctuations occur in a state of being played.

  In the manufacturing line of the manufacturer that manufactures the pachinko machine 1, when manufacturing the main control board 1310, there are cases where the main control boards 1310 for the copyrights of a plurality of types of works are mixed. Then, the worker on the production line is responsible for the copyright of which work among the copyrights of a plurality of kinds of works (for example, the copyrights of the works of movie A, movie B, drama C, movie D, comic E, and comic F). The main control board for the one copyright (for example, the copyright of the movie D) among the copyrights of a plurality of types of works is lost, or it is unclear whether the main control board 1310 is flowing in the production line in order to manufacture the control board 1310 The main control board 1310 is used to manufacture the main control board 1310 for another copyright (for example, the copyright of the work of the comic F), even though the main control board 1310 flows on the production line to manufacture 1310. There is also a misunderstanding and misunderstanding that it is flowing in the production line.

  For this reason, when manufacturing the main control board 1310 in the manufacturing line of the manufacturer that manufactures the pachinko machine 1, if the main control board 1310 corresponding to the copyrights of a plurality of types of works is mixed, the worker of the manufacturing line can use the manufacturing line. It is impossible to confirm which copyright of the work the produced main control board 1310 belongs to, and for any copyright of the same work, any model type (max type, middle type, sweet digital type) It is also not possible to confirm what type of game it is and what type of game it is (a game specification or ST machine that will continue until the next jackpot gaming state occurs when probability changes occur).

  As a result, when the main control board 1310 for the copyrights of a plurality of types of works is mixed when the main control board 1310 is manufactured in the production line of the manufacturer that manufactures the pachinko machine 1, the main control board for the copyrights of the types of works While 1310 is mixed, it is sent to a game board assembly line for attaching the main control board 1310 to the game board 5. For this reason, the operator of the game board assembly line may attach the main control board 1310 not corresponding to the game board 5 for the copyright of the work to the game board 5. As a result, there is a problem that the production efficiency of the game board 5 decreases.

  Therefore, in this embodiment, when the main control board 1310 is turned on (including when the power is turned on, and also when the power is restored due to a power failure or a momentary power failure), the model code of the pachinko machine is included. In step S50, a power-on state command classified as power-on, a power-on main control return destination command, and a power-on state command are sent to the peripheral control board 1510. A main prize ball number information output determination counter notification command is created and stored as transmission information in a transmission information storage area of the main control built-in RAM. These commands are transmitted in a main control timer interrupt process described later.

  Thereby, an operator of a manufacturing line of the manufacturer that manufactures the pachinko machine 1 turns on the main control board 1310 in the main control board inspection process, which is the inspection process of the production line, so that the inspection apparatus causes the main control board 1310 to turn on. Based on the information indicating the model code of the pachinko machine included in the power-on state command received from the above, that is, constituting the information indicating the model code of the pachinko machine, the above-described max type indicating the model type, middle type, And a series code for specifying which of the types is a sweet digital type, a copyright code for specifying the copyright of the work, and a game specification (for example, when probability change occurs, the next jackpot game state is In addition to the game specification that the state will continue until it occurs, the probability variation with a limited number of special symbol variations By checking the detailed model information displayed on the inspection monitor based on the game specification code for specifying the game specification (ST machine, etc.), the main control board 1310 is associated with which copyright. It is possible to determine the type of machine, and for the copyright of the same work, which model type (max type, middle type, and sweet digital type), and what game specifications It is also possible to determine whether the game state or ST machine is such that when the probability variation occurs, that state will continue until the next big hit gaming state occurs.

  Thereby, when manufacturing the main control board 1310 in the production line of the manufacturer that manufactures the pachinko machine 1, even if the main control board 1310 for the copyrights of a plurality of types of works is mixed, the main control board inspection process of the production line The operator can discriminate each main control board 1310 with respect to the copyright of the work, by accurately determining the model type of the main control board 1310, the copyright of the work, and the game specification by visually checking the inspection monitor. It can be sent to the game board assembly line. The operator of the game board assembly line can securely attach the main control board 1310 corresponding to the game board 5 for the copyright of the work to the game board 5, and the main control board not corresponding to the game board 5 for the copyright of the work. It is possible to prevent a decrease in production efficiency of the game board 5 caused by the work of attaching 1310 to the game board 5. Therefore, it can contribute to the improvement of the production efficiency of the game board 5.

[8-3. Main control timer interrupt processing]
Next, the main control timer interrupt process will be described. This main control side timer interrupt process is repeated at every interrupt cycle (4 ms in this embodiment) set in the main control side power-on process shown in FIGS. 112 and 113.

  When the main control timer interrupt process is started, the main control MPU switches the register bank as shown in FIG. 114 (step S100). The general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU has two register banks each composed of a first register bank and a second register bank. The first register bank is used in the main control main process in the main control side power-on process described above, while the second register bank is used in the main control side timer interrupt process which is this routine. In step S100, since the second register bank is used in the main control side timer interrupt processing which is this routine, the second register bank is used from the first register bank used in the main control main processing in the main control side power-on processing. The register bank is switched to the register tank. In the present embodiment, when the main control timer interrupt process, which is this routine, is started, the process of saving each register to the stack is not necessary.

  Subsequent to step S100, the main control MPU performs timer subtraction processing (step S102). In this timer subtraction process, for example, the time during which the first special symbol display and the second special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 are lit according to the variable display pattern determined in the special symbol and special electric accessory control process described later, The main control board 1310 (main control MPU) transmitted in addition to the time when the normal symbol display of the function display unit 1400 is turned on in accordance with the normal symbol and normal electric symbol variation display pattern determined in the normal electric accessory control process described later. Time management such as an ACK signal input determination time set as a determination condition is performed when determining whether or not a payer ACK signal indicating that the payout control board 633 has normally received various commands is input. . Specifically, when the fluctuation time of the fluctuation display pattern or the normal symbol fluctuation display pattern is 5 seconds, the timer interruption period is set to 4 ms. Therefore, every time this timer subtraction process is performed, the fluctuation time is subtracted by 4 ms. When the subtraction result is 0, the fluctuation time of the fluctuation display pattern or the normal symbol fluctuation display pattern is accurately measured.

  In this embodiment, the ACK signal input determination time is set to 100 ms. Each time this timer subtraction process is performed, the ACK signal input determination time is subtracted by 4 ms, and the subtraction result becomes 0, thereby accurately measuring the ACK signal input determination time. The various times and the ACK signal input determination time are stored as time management information in the time management information storage area of the main control built-in RAM.

  Subsequent to step S102, the main control MPU performs switch input processing (step S104). In this switch input process, various signals input to the input terminals of the various input ports of the main control MPU are read and stored as input information in the input information storage area of the main control built-in RAM. Specifically, the main control MPU is, for example, a detection signal from the general winning opening sensor 2401, a detection signal from the general winning opening sensor 3001, a detection signal from the first starting opening sensor 2101, or from the second starting opening sensor 2402. , Detection signal from the winning prize sensor 2403, detection signal from the out sensor 3032, detection signal from the magnetic sensor 2470, detection signal from the vibration sensor 3005, from the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 Signal (This signal from the RWM clear button 633z is not an important signal in the main control timer interrupt processing which is this routine, and may be masked to omit reading), the door frame opening switch 4a A detection signal from the main body frame opening switch 4b, a signal from the setting key switch 1311a, The payer ACK signal from the payout control board 633 that indicates that the payout control board 633 has normally received the prize ball command transmitted in the award ball control process described below is read, and the input information of the main control built-in RAM as input information Store in the storage area. Further, when the detection signal from the first start port sensor 2101 and the detection signal from the second start port sensor 2402 are read, the start port winning command classified into the other corresponding to this is transmitted as transmission information in the main control built-in RAM. Store in the transmission information storage area. That is, when there is a detection signal from the first start port sensor 2101, a corresponding start port winning command is stored as transmission information in the transmission information storage area of the main control built-in RAM, and from the second start port sensor 2402. When there is a detection signal, a start opening winning command corresponding to the detection signal is stored as transmission information in the transmission information storage area of the main control built-in RAM.

  In the present embodiment, when the switch input process is started in a state where all the input terminals of the various input ports of the main control MPU are input (including those subjected to the empty terminal process). First, each is read as the first time, and after a predetermined time (for example, 10 μs) has elapsed, each is read again as the second time. Then, the result read at the second time is compared with the result read at the first time. It is determined whether there is a comparison result among the comparison results. Those that are not the same result are read again as the third time, and the result read at the third time is compared with the result read at the second time. It is determined again whether there is a comparison result among the comparison results. Those that are not the same result are read again as the fourth time, and the result read at the fourth time is compared with the result read at the third time. It is determined again whether there is a comparison result among the comparison results. Those that do not match the result are treated as having no incoming game balls or being ignored.

  As described above, in the switch input process, the state in which all the input terminals of the various input ports of the main control MPU are input (including those in which the empty terminal process is performed) is performed for the first to third times. By performing the reading twice in total, that is, the twice reading to be compared and the twice reading to be compared for the second time to the fourth time, it is possible to avoid erroneous detection due to the influence of chattering or noise. Since the detection signal from the general winning opening sensor 2401, the detection signal from the general winning opening sensor 3001, the detection signal from the first starting opening sensor 2101, the detection signal from the second starting opening sensor 2402, The detection signal from the big prize opening sensor 2403, the detection signal from the out opening sensor 3032, the detection signal from the magnetic sensor 3005, and the detection from the vibration sensor 3005. Signal, signal from the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 (the signal from this RWM clear button 633z is not an important signal in the main control timer interruption process which is this routine, so it is masked and read. ), A detection signal from the door frame opening switch 4a, a detection signal from the main body frame opening switch 4b, a signal from the setting key switch 1311a, and a prize ball command transmitted in a prize ball control process to be described later It is possible to improve the reliability of the payer ACK signal from the payout control board 633 that notifies the control board 633 that it has been normally received.

  Subsequent to step S104, the main control MPU performs an input terminal failure monitoring process (step S105). In this input terminal failure monitoring process, the state of the input terminals of the various input ports of the main control MPU that have been subjected to the empty terminal process is performed based on the information acquired in the switch input process in step S104. Specifically, for example, since the input terminal PA7 of the input port PA of the main control MPU is grounded to the ground (GND) as an empty terminal process, the logic state is always LOW. Therefore, in the input terminal failure monitoring process, the information acquired in the switch input process in step S104 whether or not the logical state of the input terminal subjected to the empty terminal process among the input terminals of the various input ports is LOW. Based on. When the main control MPU determines that the logic state of the input terminal subjected to the vacant terminal processing is not LOW, the main control MPU is classified into a notification display informing that a failure has occurred in the peripheral circuit of the main control MPU. Is stored in the transmission information storage area of the main control built-in RAM as transmission information.

  Subsequent to step S105, the main control MPU performs a winning random number update process (step S106). In this winning random number update process, the above-described symbol random number is updated. Further, in addition to these random numbers, a big hit symbol initial value determining random number that is updated by the non-winning random number update process of step S56 in the main control side power-on process (main control side main process) shown in FIG. And the random number for determining the initial value for the small hit symbol is also updated. The random value for determining the initial value for the big hit symbol and the random number for determining the initial value for the small hit symbol are updated in the main control side main process and the main control side timer interrupt process, respectively, thereby improving the randomness. . On the other hand, since the design random number is a random number related to winning determination (winning determination), each time the winning random number update process is performed, each counter is incremented. It should be noted that the above-described random number for normal symbol determination and the initial value determination random number for normal symbol determination are also updated by this winning random number update process.

  For example, as described above, the counter that updates the random number for normal symbol determination is an initial value update type counter, and is updated within a predetermined fixed numerical value range from the minimum value to the maximum value. To the maximum value, the value is incremented by adding 1 each time the main control timer interrupt process is performed. The normal value determination random number per normal symbol is counted up toward the maximum value, and then the minimum value is counted up toward the normal symbol determination initial value determination random number. When the counter finishes counting up the range from the minimum value to the maximum value of the random numbers for normal symbol determination, the winning determination initial value determination random number is updated by this winning random number update processing. The normal value determination random number for normal symbol determination can be obtained by executing an initial value lottery process for drawing one value from a fixed numerical value range of a counter that updates the random number for normal symbol determination.

  In the present embodiment, the big hit symbol initial value determining random number and the small hit symbol initial value determining random number are set in step S56 in the main control side power-on process (main control side main process) shown in FIG. The winning random number update process and the winning random number update process in step S106 in the main control timer interrupt process, which is this routine, are updated respectively. However, each time an interrupt timer is generated, the processing time of this routine becomes uneven. If the number of executions of the non-winning random number update process in step S56 is random by repeatedly executing the main process on the main control side within the remaining time until the interrupt timer is generated, a random number for determining the initial value for the big hit symbol Also, a mechanism for updating the random number for determining the initial value for the small hit symbol only in the non-winning random number update process in step S56. .

  Subsequent to step S106, the main control MPU performs a ball count process (step S107). In this ball count process, the input information is read from the above-mentioned input information storage area, and based on this input information, a detection signal from the outlet sensor 3032 is input to the game area 5a which is partitioned into the game board 5 When the out-port sensor 3032 detects a game ball collected by the provided out-port 1008, the value 1 is added to the value of the collected-ball counter that counts the number of game balls collected by the out-port 1008. Perform (increment) operation. The main control MPU sets the value of the collected ball counter, which is the calculation result, as the counting result (total number) of the number of game balls collected by the out port 1008 in the out ball counting dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM. In addition to storing, the output of the lighting signal to be displayed on the base monitor 1310h is set and stored as output information in the output information storage area. In addition, the main control MPU creates a ball collection command to notify that when the value of the collection ball counter is divisible by the value 10, that is, every time the number of game balls collected at the out port 1008 reaches ten. And stored in the output information storage area as transmission information. The main control MPU, when the value of the collection ball counter, which is the calculation result, reaches the maximum value (in this embodiment, the value 65535) and further adds (increments) the value of the collection ball counter by 1 to the collection ball counter. The counter value overflows to a value of 0, and an operation of adding from this value 0 is performed.

  Subsequent to step S107, the main control MPU performs a prize ball control process (step S108). In this prize ball control process, the input information is read from the above-mentioned input information storage area and a prize ball command for paying out a game ball is created based on this input information, or the main control board 1310 and the payout control board 633 Or create a self-check command to check the connection state between the boards. Then, the created prize ball command and self-check command are transmitted to the payout control board 633 as main payout serial data. For example, when one game ball enters the big prize opening 2005, a prize ball command for paying out 15 balls as a prize ball is created, and the number of game balls to be paid out as a prize ball reaches 10 balls. Therefore, the output of the main award ball number information output signal is set in order to convey the fact, and the output information is stored in the output information storage area, and the award ball command is transmitted to the payout control board 633, or the award ball When a payer ACK signal notifying that the payout control board 633 has successfully received the command is not input within a predetermined time, a self-check command for checking the connection state between the main control board 1310 and the payout control board 633 is issued. Created and transmitted to the payout control board 633.

  In the prize ball control process in step S108, when the input information is read from the above-described input information storage area and the number of game balls scheduled to be paid out as a prize ball reaches 10 based on this input information. In order to notify that, a main prize ball number information output command classified into others is created and stored in the transmission information storage area as transmission information. The main prize ball number information output command is created based on the value of the main prize ball number information output determination counter. The value of the main prize ball number information output determination counter is obtained by reading the input information from the input information storage area described above and based on this input information, that is, the general winning port 2001 and the first start port 2002 provided in the game board 5. Based on the game balls that have entered the various winning ports (hereinafter referred to as “various winning ports provided on the game board 5”) such as the second starting port 2004 and the big winning port 2005, etc. The number of game balls to be released is counted, and is stored and updated in the award ball schedule information storage area of the main control built-in RAM in the prize ball control process of step S108. In the prize ball control process of step S108, the value of the main prize ball number information output determination counter stored in the prize ball schedule information storage area of the main control built-in RAM is read, and the read main prize ball number information output determination counter is read. The input information is read from the input information storage area described above, and the number of game balls to be paid out as a prize ball is added based on this input information, and the value indicating the added number is 10 When the number of game balls is over (that is, when the number of game balls scheduled to be paid out as prize balls has reached 10), a main prize ball number information output command is created to inform the fact, and as transmission information The award ball schedule information storage area of the main control built-in RAM described above is stored in the output information storage area, and the value indicating the number of balls exceeding the value is used as the main prize ball number information output determination counter It is adapted to store update.

  Subsequent to step S108, the main control MPU performs a frame command reception process (step S110). The payout control board 633 transmits various 1-byte (8-bit) commands (for example, a frame state 1 command, an error release navigation command, and a frame state 2 command) that are classified into state displays. In the frame command reception process, when various commands are normally received as payer serial data, information that informs the payout control board 633 to that effect is stored as output information in the output information storage area of the main control built-in RAM. Also, the main control MPU reformats the command normally received as the payer serial data into a 2-byte (16-bit) command (various commands classified into status display (frame status 1 command, error release navigation command, And frame state 2 command)), and stored in the transmission information storage area described above as transmission information.

  Subsequent to step S110, the main control MPU performs a fraud detection process (step S112). In this fraud detection process, although the second start port 2411 is not in the open state, the second start port 2004 has entered the game ball B or the grand prize port door 2413 is not in the open state. First, it is checked whether there is an abnormal state related to the prize ball, such as a game ball B entering the big prize opening 2005. Further, in this embodiment, when it is determined that an abnormal state related to the prize ball has occurred in the fraud detection process, the hall computer installed on the game hall side via the external terminal board 558 of the pachinko machine 1 is used. Thus, the main control MPU outputs a security signal, which can contribute to an attendant such as a game hall clerk being able to find an abnormal state related to a prize ball at an early stage. Note that the security signal that is output when it is determined that an abnormal condition related to the prize ball has occurred is a security signal that is output when it is determined that a magnet is to be described later, or a vibration that is described later. This is the same signal as the security signal that is output when it is determined that the goto has been performed. In addition, the security signal is output by the main control MPU to the hall computer installed on the game hall side via the payout control board 633 and the external terminal board 558 connected to the payout control board 633. However, after the main control MPU transmits a command for instructing the output of the security signal to the payout control board 633, the payout control MPU sends the command to the game hall side via the external terminal board 558 connected to the payout control board 633. A security signal may be output to the hall computer installed in the computer.

  Further, in the cheating detection process of step S112, when the input information is read from the input information storage area described above and the detection signal from the magnetic sensor 2470 is input, cheating using a magnet (hereinafter referred to as “magnet goto”). And the value of the magnet goto counter is incremented by 1 (incremented). The value of the magnet goto counter is incremented every time it is determined that magnet got is performed in the fraud detection process, and is included in the game backup information. When the RAM is cleared, the initial value is obtained. As a result, the value 0 (zero) is set. When the value of the magnet goto counter reaches the upper limit value (in this embodiment, the value 250 is set as the upper limit value based on 4 ms which is an interrupt cycle in which the fraud detection process is performed by the main control timer interrupt process) .), A magnet gossip command that is classified into a notification display that informs that magnet got is performed is created and stored as transmission information in the transmission information storage area described above. Further, in this embodiment, when it is determined that a magnet is being carried out in the fraud detection process, the main computer installed on the game hall side via the external terminal board 558 of the pachinko machine 1 is The control MPU outputs a security signal, so that a staff member such as a game hall clerk can discover the magnet at an early stage.

  Further, in the fraud detection process of step S112, when the input information is read from the input information storage area described above and the detection signal from the vibration sensor 3005 is input, the fraudulent act due to vibration (hereinafter referred to as “vibration goto”). And the value of the vibration goto counter is incremented by 1 (increment). The value of the vibration goto counter is incremented every time it is determined that the vibration goto is performed in the fraud detection process, and is included in the game backup information. When the RAM is cleared, the initial value is obtained. As a result, the value 0 (zero) is set. When the value of the vibration goto counter reaches the upper limit value (in this embodiment, the value 250 is set as the upper limit value based on 4 ms, which is the interrupt cycle in which the fraud detection process is performed by the main control timer interrupt process) .), A vibration goto notification command classified into a notification display that informs that vibration goto is being performed is created and stored as transmission information in the transmission information storage area described above. In the present embodiment, when it is determined that the vibration is being performed in the fraud detection process, the main computer installed on the game hall side via the external terminal plate 558 of the pachinko machine 1 is When the control MPU outputs a security signal, a staff member such as a game hall clerk can contribute to finding a vibration goto at an early stage.

  Further, in the fraud detection process of step S112, for example, when input information is read from the input information storage area described above and a detection signal from the big prize opening sensor 2403 is input when not in the big hit gaming state (big prize opening) In the case of occurrence of an abnormal prize winning such as when a game ball enters in 2005), a prize abnormality display command that is classified into an alarm display as an abnormal state is created and stored as transmission information in the transmission information storage area described above. .

  In the fraud detection process of step S112, when a magnet goat and / or a vibration goto is detected, a value 1 is set in the cheating detection flag FD-FLG as a fraud detection, while the magnet goat and the vibration goat are set. If not detected, a fraudulent act detection flag FD-FLG is set to 0 as a fraudulent act is not detected. The fraud detection flag FD-FLG is included in the game backup information, and when the RAM is cleared, a value 0 (zero) is set as an initial value. In addition, when detecting the occurrence of an abnormal winning prize opening, a value 1 may be set in the fraud detection flag FD-FLG as detection of fraud.

  Subsequent to step S112, the main control MPU performs a firing permission signal setting process (step S113). In this launch permission signal setting process, the logic of the launch permission signal that informs the launch control unit 633b of the payout control board 633 that launch of the game ball B is permitted is set. Specifically, the main control MPU determines, based on the value of the above-described fraud detection flag FD-FLG, that the fraud detection flag FD-FLG is 0, that is, no fraud has been detected. Sometimes it is set to the firing permission logic as the logic of the firing permission signal and stored in the output information storage area described above as output information, while when the fraud detection flag FD-FLG is not 0 (value 1), that is, fraud When it is determined that this is the detection, the firing permission logic is set to the firing stop logic (launch non-permission logic) inverted as the logic of the launch permission signal, and is stored in the output information storage area described above as output information. It should be noted that the logic of the firing permission signal is determined by hardware including a main control output circuit with a reset function so that the firing stop logic (launch non-permission logic) obtained by inverting the firing permission logic is set as an initial value (default). Although it is configured, after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on (after power is restored), it is set to the firing permission logic.

  Subsequent to step S113, the main control MPU performs a special symbol and special electric accessory control process (step S114). In this special symbol and special electric accessory control processing, a latch signal is output to the main random number circuit with built-in main control, and the random number (random number value) extracted by the main random number circuit with built-in main control when the latch signal is input Obtained from a hard random number latch register built in the control MPU, and the obtained random number value is set as a special random number. Then, it is determined whether or not the special random number (that is, the random number value acquired from the hard random number latch register incorporated in the main control MPU) and the jackpot determination value stored in advance in the main control built-in ROM match (the jackpot It is determined whether or not a game state is to be generated (referred to as “special lottery”)), and the counter value for updating the design random number is taken out and stored in advance in the main control built-in ROM according to the big hit type or the small hit type. It is determined (determined the hit type) whether or not any of the hit type determination values matches.

  When these determination results (lottery results) are based on the first start port sensor 2101, various commands related to the special figure 1 synchronization effect are created, while the determination results (lottery results) are the second start port sensor 2402. If it is based on the above, a variety of commands related to special figure 2 tuning effects are created and stored in the transmission information storage area as transmission information, and the variable display pattern of the special symbol is determined based on the random number for the variable display pattern described above. Then, the first special symbol indicator or the second special symbol of the function display unit 1400 is turned on so that the first special symbol indicator or the second special symbol indicator of the function display unit 1400 is turned on according to the determined variation display pattern of the special symbol. The output of the lighting signal to the display is set and stored as output information in the output information storage area described above. Also, depending on the gaming state to be generated, for example, when a big hit gaming state is entered, various commands classified as jackpot related (a big hit opening command, a big winning opening 1 opening Nth display command, a big winning opening 1 closing display command, a large winning combination, A winning opening 1 count display command, a jackpot ending command, and a jackpot symbol display command) are stored in the transmission information storage area as transmission information, or, for example, a drive signal to the attacker solenoid 2414 to open / close the opening / closing member When the output is set and stored as output information in the output information storage area, or when the number of times (round) when the special winning opening 2005 is changed from the closed state to the open state is two, 2 of the round display of the function display unit 1400 The lighting signal to the 2 round indicator lamp is turned on so that the round indicator lamp is lit. The power is set and stored as output information in the output information storage area, or when the number of rounds is 15, the lighting signal to the 15 round display lamp is turned on to light the 15 round display lamp of the round indicator of the function display unit 1400 The output of the lighting signal to the status indicator of the function display unit 1400 is set so as to turn on or off the occurrence of a short time in a predetermined color. Or stored in the output information storage area.

  Subsequent to step S114, the main control MPU performs a normal symbol and normal electric accessory control process (step S116). In the normal symbol and normal electric accessory control process, the input information is read from the input information storage area described above, and the normal winning opening winning process is performed based on the input information. In this normal winning opening winning process, it is determined from the input information whether the detection signal from the gate sensor 2506 has been input to the input terminal of the input port. Based on the determination result, when a detection signal is input to the input terminal of the input port, the value of the counter for updating the normal symbol per-determination random number described above is extracted and the main control is incorporated as the normal winning opening winning information. The data is stored in the normal winning slot winning information storage area of the RAM.

  In the normal winning award winning prize information storage area, the 0th section to the third section (four sections) are provided, and the normal winning opening is in order of the 0th section, the first section, the second section, and the third section. The winning information is stored. For example, when the normal winning opening information is stored in the 0th to 2nd sections of the normal winning opening winning information storage, when the detection signal from the gate sensor 2506 is input to the input terminal of the input port, the normal winning opening The winning information is stored in the third section of the normal winning opening winning information storage.

  Information stored in the 0th section of the normal winning slot winning information storage is set in the work area of the main control built-in RAM. When the normal winning award winning prize information is set, the normal winning award winning prize information stored in the first winning prize winning information storage in the first winning prize winning information storage in the first winning prize winning information storage is stored in the second winning section of the ordinary winning prize winning prize information storage. The normal winning slot winning information of the section is in the first section of the normal winning opening prize information storage, and the ordinary winning opening prize information in the third section of the normal winning opening prize information storage is in the second section of the normal winning opening prize information storage, respectively. The third section of the normal winning opening winning information storage is shifted to become an empty area. For example, when the normal winning slot winning information is stored in the first to second sections of the normal winning slot winning information storage, the normal winning slot winning information in the first winning section of the normal winning opening winning information storage is the normal winning prize. In the 0th section of the mouth winning information storage, the ordinary winning mouth winning information in the second section of the ordinary winning mouth winning information storage is shifted to the first section of the ordinary winning mouth winning information storage, respectively. The second section and the third section of the normal winning opening prize information storage are vacant areas. Here, when the normal winning slot winning information is stored in the first to third sections of the normal winning opening winning information storage, the total number of the stored normal winning slot winning information is set as the holding ball and the normal display of the function display unit 1400 Based on the above-described normal winning opening winning information, the output of the lighting signal of the normal holding indicator of the function display unit 1400 is set so that the holding indicator is turned on, and is stored as output information in the output information storage area.

  Following the normal winning award winning process, read out the normal winning award winning information set in the work area of the main control built-in RAM, and take out the value of the random number for judgment per normal symbol from the read out the normal winning award winning information. It is determined whether or not it matches the determination value per normal symbol stored in advance in the built-in ROM (referred to as “normal lottery”). Whether or not the movable piece is opened / closed is determined based on the determination result (the lottery result of the normal lottery). When the opening / closing operation is performed by this determination, the movable piece is in the opened state, so that a gaming state in which the game ball can be received in the second starting port 2004 is obtained, and a gaming state advantageous to the player is achieved. The variable display pattern of the normal symbol corresponding to this determination is determined based on the above-mentioned random number for the normal symbol variable display pattern, and various commands classified as related to the general pattern synchronization effect are created, and the transmission information storage described above as transmission information In the area, the output of the lighting signal to the normal symbol display of the function display unit 1400 is set so that the normal symbol display of the function display unit 1400 is lit according to the determined normal symbol variation display pattern. Is stored in the output information storage area described above.

  Also, for example, when the value of the random number for judgment per ordinary symbol taken out matches the judgment value per ordinary symbol stored in advance in the main control built-in ROM, various commands related to the ordinary electric role effect production are created and transmitted. The information is stored in the transmission information storage area, and the output of the drive signal to the start port solenoid 2412 is set so as to open and close the movable piece, and the output information is stored in the output information storage area described above, while the extracted normal When the random number for determination per symbol does not match the determination value per normal symbol stored in advance in the main control built-in ROM, the normal symbol variation display pattern is determined based on the normal symbol variation display pattern random number described above. , Create various commands that are classified as related to the usual figure synchronization production, and store it in the transmission information storage area described above as transmission information, The output of the lighting signal to the normal symbol display of the function display unit 1400 is set so as to turn on the normal symbol display of the function display unit 1400 according to the determined normal symbol variation display pattern, and the output information storage area described above as output information To remember. In this example, the winning probability of the normal lottery (probability of normal winning) is ½.

  Subsequent to step S116, the main control MPU performs a port output process (step S118). In this port output process, output information is read from the output information storage area described above from the output terminals of the various output ports of the main control MPU, and various signals are output based on the output information. The main control MPU, for example, outputs a main payout ACK signal when the various commands from the payout control board 633 are normally received from the output terminal of a predetermined output port of the main control MPU based on the output information. Or a driving signal is output to an attacker solenoid 2414 that opens and closes the opening / closing member of the winning prize opening 2005 or a starting opening solenoid 2412 that opens and closes a movable piece. 15 round big hit information output signal, 2 round big hit information output signal, small hit information output signal, special symbol display information output signal, normal symbol display information output signal, short and medium time information output signal, start opening prize information Various information (game information) signals related to the game such as output signals are output to the payout control board 633, and the launch permission logic Is a base monitor that outputs a firing permission signal set in the firing stop logic (launch non-permission logic) to the payout control board 633 and displays a count result (total number) of game balls collected by the out port 1008 A display signal is output to 1310h, and a lighting signal for displaying the setting value stored in the setting value exclusive area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM on the setting display 1310g is output.

  Subsequent to step S118, the main control MPU performs peripheral control board command transmission processing (step S120). In this peripheral control board command transmission process, transmission information is read from the transmission information storage area described above, and this transmission information is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 as main peripheral serial data. This transmission information includes various commands created in the main control side timer interrupt processing, which is this routine, classified as related to the special figure 1 tuning effect, various commands classified as related to the special figure 2 synchronous effect, and classified as related to the jackpot. Various commands to be executed (for example, a winning prize 1 count display command corresponding to a winning prize count command based on a detection signal from the winning prize sensor 2403 when a game ball having entered the winning prize opening 2005 is detected) , Various commands categorized as power-on, various commands categorized as related to ordinary drawing effects, various commands categorized as related to ordinary electric character effects, various commands categorized as notification displays, various types categorized as status displays Commands, various commands classified as test-related, and various commands classified as other (for example, the main control board 1310 is provided in the game board 5. Each time the number of game balls to be paid out as prize balls reaches 10 based on the game balls that have entered the various winning openings, the main prize ball number information output signal is sent to the outside as the main prize ball number information. The main prize ball number information output command for instructing transmission to the hall computer via the terminal board 558 and various commands classified into specific histories (for example, the number of game balls collected at the out port 1008) A ball collection command that reports that every time 10 balls are reached, a setting change command that reports that the setting value has been changed, or something that is abnormal (or cannot be trusted) stored in the main control built-in RAM An error display command that informs the user that the setting value is stored, and a setting value that conveys that the setting value stored in the setting value dedicated area (to be described later) in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM is confirmed. Sure display command, etc.) are stored. The main serial data consists of 3 bytes per packet. Specifically, the main peripheral serial data includes a status indicating a type of command having a storage capacity of 1 byte (8 bits), a mode indicating a production variation having a storage capacity of 1 byte (8 bits), and a status. And a sum value obtained by calculating the sum with the mode regarded as a numerical value, and this sum value is created at the time of transmission.

  In this peripheral control board command transmission processing, various commands are configured as main peripheral serial data, and are transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 in the order of status, mode, and sum value. As described above, the electric charge charged in the electrolytic capacitor MC2 is applied to the VDD terminal, which is the power supply terminal of the main control MPU, as DC +5 V when a power failure or a momentary power failure occurs. The main peripheral serial transmission port built in the main control MPU must at least transfer the command set in its transmission buffer register to the transmission shift register by the serial manager and complete transmission as main peripheral serial data from the transmission shift register. Can be done. When the power to the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, or when power is restored due to a power outage or a momentary power failure after the power is turned on, transmission is performed when the power is turned on in step S50 in the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. In order to notify that power has been restored in the reservation setting of the command to be performed, a power-on status command classified as power-on, a power-on main control return destination command, and a power-on main prize ball number information output determination counter Since the notification command is created and stored as transmission information in the transmission information storage area of the main control built-in RAM, as the main peripheral serial data, the power-on state command is configured in the order of status, mode, and sum value. The status, mode, and sum value that are sent to the peripheral control board 1510 and then constitute the main control return destination command when the power is turned on Transmitted to peripheral control board 1510 in order, subsequently constitutes the power-on main prize ball number information output determining counter notification command, and transmits status, mode, and a peripheral control board 1510 in the order of thumb value. In the transmission information storage area of the main control built-in RAM, in the setting of the work area of the main control built-in RAM in step S34 in the main control side power-on process, various information is read out from the game backup information and the various information is Various commands may be stored. In such a case, first after completion of transmission of various commands according to game information among various information, then power-on status command, power-on main control return destination command, and power-on main prize ball number information An output determination counter notification command is transmitted.

  When the number of game balls collected at the out port 1008 reaches 10 each time a ball collection command is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510, the peripheral control MPU in the peripheral control board 1510 receives the received ball For each collection command, the number of game balls collected at the out port 1008 is counted, and ball collection information (counted value (that is, collected at the out port 1008 is stored) in a built-in RAM of a real time clock IC (not shown). The total number of game balls to be updated) and the updated date and time) are updated. If the pachinko machine 1 is turned off after the game hall business hours have ended without receiving the ball collection command, the last counted value (that is, the game ball collected at the outlet 1008) Sphere collection information in which the total number of spheres) is associated with the updated date and time is stored and held in a built-in RAM of a real-time clock IC (not shown). When the pachinko machine 1 is turned on when the game hall is opened, the peripheral control MPU in the peripheral control board 1510 has started the ball collection information stored in the internal RAM of the real-time clock IC (not shown). The ball collection information is created again from the day, and the ball collection information is stored and held in the built-in RAM of the real-time clock IC (not shown) as the ball collection history information. The counted value stored and held as the ball collection information in the built-in RAM of the real time clock IC (not shown) may be a value counted from the value 0 (zero) on that day, or from the value 0 (zero) on that day. You may use both the counted value and the sum total of the counted value so far.

  Following step S120, the main control MPU clears the main control built-in WDT (step S122), and ends this routine. The main control built-in WDT in step S122 is cleared by setting a timer clear setting value in a WDT clear register built in the main control MPU. Thereby, the time count by the main control built-in WDT is cleared. Then, the timing by the main control built-in WDT is started again, so that the main control MPU is not forcedly reset by the main control built-in WDT.

  In addition, as described above, the main control board 1310 stores the game information according to the progress of the game before the power to the pachinko machine 1 is cut off while the game is progressing. The process can be completed by executing the process. At the time of power recovery, the power to the pachinko machine 1 is cut off based on the game information on which the backup process was executed as the return destination of the game progress by the main control board 1310. In this routine, a power-on main control return destination command for instructing the driving state of the start port solenoid 2412 and the attacker solenoid 2414 which are electrical drive sources by the port output processing in step S118 in this routine is output to the peripheral control board 1510. Be able to. In other words, the main control board 1310 uses the main control built-in RAM of step S34 in the same processing shown in FIG. 112 in the reservation setting of the command to be transmitted when power is turned on in step S50 in the main control side power on processing shown in FIG. In the setting of the work area, a power-on state command classified as power-on in order to notify that the power was turned on (power recovery) based on the power-on information set in the work area of the main control built-in RAM, A power-on main control return destination command and a power-on main prize ball number information output determination counter notification command are created and stored as transmission information in the transmission information storage area of the main control built-in RAM. In the peripheral control board command transmission process, configure the power-on status command as the main peripheral serial data. Send to the peripheral control board 1510 in the order of status, mode, and sum value, and then send to the peripheral control board 1510 in the order of status, mode, and sum value constituting the main control return destination command at power-on, Subsequently, the main prize ball number information output determination counter notification command upon power-on is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 in the order of status, mode, and thumb value.

  For this reason, the peripheral control board 1510 displays the return destination of the progress of the game by the main control board 1310 at the time of power recovery based on the power-on main control return destination command from the main control board 1310. It is possible to display effects. As a result, when a player is playing a game, when a momentary power failure or power failure occurs, and when power is restored thereafter, the game state immediately before the power failure or power failure is restored immediately after power recovery. In addition, the return destination of the progress of the game by the main control board 1310 can be displayed and notified in the display area of the effect display device 1600, so that the system of the pachinko machine 1 is clumped, that is, in a so-called frozen state. It is possible to prevent a player from misunderstanding that the player has failed. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the player from misunderstanding that the player has failed by quickly returning to the gaming state immediately before the momentary power failure or power failure after power recovery.

  Also, in the main control board inspection process, which is an inspection process of the production line of the main control board 1310, when the main control board 1310 is first turned on after being manufactured for inspection, as described above, as shown in FIG. In step S38 in the main-control-side power-on process shown, all areas of the main control built-in RAM are always cleared except for a specific area. Thereby, in the reservation setting of the command transmitted at power-on in step S50 in the same processing shown in FIG. 113, when the reservation setting of the command transmitted at power-on is performed, the power-on state command classified as power-on When the power is turned on, a main control return destination command at power-on and a main notification ball count information output judgment counter notification command at power-on are created and stored as transmission information in the transmission information storage area of the main control built-in RAM. A state in which only three commands are stored as transmission information in the transmission information storage area of the main control built-in RAM: a status command, a main control return destination command when the power is turned on, and a counter notification command for determining the output of the main prize ball information when the power is turned on In the peripheral control board command transmission process of step S120 in this routine, As peripheral serial data, configure the power-on status command, send it to the inspection device of the main control board inspection process in the order of status, mode, and sum value, then configure the power-on main control return destination command, Status, mode, and sum value are sent to the inspection device in the main control board inspection process, followed by the main notification ball number information output judgment counter notification command when the power is turned on. Status, mode, and sum value In order, it transmits to the inspection apparatus of the main control board inspection process. The inspection apparatus of the main control board inspection process configures information indicating the model code of the pachinko machine based on the information indicating the model code of the pachinko machine included in the power-on state command received from the main control board 1310, that is, information indicating the model code of the pachinko machine. The above-mentioned series type for specifying the model type, max type, middle type, and sweet digital type, the series code for specifying the type, the copyright code for specifying the copyright of the work, and the game specification (For example, in addition to a game specification in which when a probability change occurs, that state will continue until the next jackpot game state occurs, a game specification in which a probability change occurs with a limited number of special symbol changes (ST Detailed machine model information is displayed on the inspection monitor of the main control board inspection process based on the game specification code for identifying the machine) It has become.

[8-4. Setting change process]
Next, the setting change process will be described. This setting change process is a process performed in step S37 in the main control side power-on process shown in FIG.

  When the setting change process is started, the main control MPU acquires the current installation value as shown in FIG. 115 (step S200). Here, the main control MPU acquires the set value stored in the set value dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM. When this set value is acquired, it may be read out or extracted, but when the set value is extracted, the extracted set value is set in a predetermined area.

  Subsequent to step S200, the main control MPU calculates a checksum (step S202). This checksum is obtained by considering various information stored in the main control built-in RAM as numerical values and calculating the sum thereof. The checksum is performed in step S28 in the main control side power-on processing shown in FIG. This is the same process as the calculation of.

  Subsequent to step S202, the main control MPU stores the calculated checksum value (sum value) in the main control-side power-off process (at the time of power-off) in the main-control-side power-on process shown in FIG. It is determined whether or not the checksum value (sum value) matches (step S204). In step S204, when the main control MPU determines that they match, it determines whether or not the backup flag BK-FLG has a value of 1 (step S206). The determination in step S204 and the determination in step S206 are the same as the determination in step S30 and the determination in step S32 in the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. As described above, the backup flag BK-FLG has game control information such as various information, a checksum value (sum value), and a backup flag BK-FLG. This flag indicates whether or not the data is stored in the RAM, and is set to a value of 1 when the main control-side power-off process is normally completed, and a value of 0 when the main-control-side power-off process is not normally completed. Is done.

  When the main control MPU determines that the checksum values (sum values) do not match in the determination in step S204, or in the determination in step S206, the main control MPU determines that the backup flag BK-FLG is not 1. When the value is 0, that is, when it is determined that the main control side power-off process is not normally terminated, it is determined whether or not the set value acquired in step S200 is within the normal range (step S208). . Here, the “normal range” is a value whose setting value can be changed. In this embodiment, the setting value 1, the setting value 2, the setting value 3, the setting value 4, the setting value 5, and the setting value are set. Values up to 6 are preset. When the flowchart proceeds to the determination of step S208, when it is determined that there is an abnormality in the contents of the main control built-in RAM, or when it is determined that the main control side power-off process has not been completed normally when the power is turned off. Therefore, the contents stored in the main control built-in RAM are abnormal (or cannot be trusted). Therefore, in the determination in step S208, the main control MPU acquires the setting value stored in the setting value exclusive area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM acquired in step S200, and the setting value 1 to the setting value 6 is within the normal range. It is determined whether or not any of the values is within the range, and when it is determined that the value is within the normal range, the set value is used as it is.

  On the other hand, if the main control MPU determines in step S208 that it is not within the normal range, it sets the setting value 1 that is the initial value for the setting value acquired in step S200 (step S210). In the determination in step S208, any one of the set values 1 to 6 in which the set value stored in the set value dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM acquired in step S200 is the normal range. However, the main control MPU determines that the checksum values (sum values) do not match in the determination in step S204 without performing the determination in step S208. In the determination of step S206, the main control MPU determines that the backup flag BK-FLG is not a value 1 (value 0), that is, the main control side power-off process has not been terminated normally. In some cases, the process proceeds to step S210, and the setting value 1 that is the initial value may be set with respect to the setting value acquired in step S200. .

  In the determination in step S206, the main control MPU determines that the backup flag BK-FLG has a value of 1, that is, determines that the main control-side power-off process has ended normally, or in the determination in step S208. When it is determined that the MPU is in the normal range, or following step S210, the main control MPU outputs a lighting signal to the setting change permission lamp 1310z to light the setting change permission lamp 1310z (step S212).

  Subsequent to step S212, the main control MPU outputs a lighting signal for displaying the setting value on the setting indicator 1310g to the setting indicator 1310g and displays the setting value on the setting indicator 1310g (step S214). .

  Subsequent to step S214, the main control MPU determines whether or not the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 is operated (step S216). As described above, the RWM clear button 633z has a function (RAM clear switch, setting switching button, and error release switch) that also has three functions. Here, setting switching for selecting and switching a setting value is performed. Acts as a button function. This determination is made by reading a signal (setting value selection switching signal) indicating that the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 has been operated, and from the setting value setting change signal from the RWM clear button 633z. It is determined whether a detection signal is input. The main control MPU determines that the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is operated when the selection switching signal of the set value from the RWM clear button 633z is input, while the set value from the RWM clear button 633z is When the selection switching signal is not input, it is determined that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is not operated.

  In step S216, when the main control MPU determines that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated, the main control MPU performs an operation of adding (incrementing) the value 1 to the set value and updating the operation (step S218). ). At this time, when the setting value is acquired in step S200, if the setting value stored in the setting value dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM is extracted and set in the predetermined area, the predetermined area The value 1 is added (incremented) to the set value set to.

  Subsequent to step S218, the main control MPU outputs a lighting signal for displaying the setting value updated in step S216 on the setting indicator 1310g to the setting indicator 1310g and updates the setting indicator 1310g. Is displayed (step S220).

  Subsequent to step S220 or in the determination in step S216, when the main control MPU determines that the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is not operated, the main control MPU determines whether the setting key is turned off. Is determined (step S222). In this determination, the main control MPU inserts the setting key into the insertion port 1311ab of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a, and sets the setting key switch 1311a from the rotation position of the setting key cylinder to the initial position (i.e., The setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF by turning 60 degrees counterclockwise so as to return the setting key switch 1311a to the rotation position of the setting key cylinder turning OFF), and the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF. When the OFF signal from the setting key switch 1311a is input, it is determined that the setting key has been turned OFF. On the other hand, when the OFF signal from the setting key switch 1311a is not input, the setting key OFF operation It determines that that is not.

  In the determination in step S222, when the main control MPU determines that the setting key is not turned OFF, the main control MPU returns to the determination in step S216 again and determines whether or not the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated. . In step S216, when the main control MPU determines that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated, the main control MPU performs the processing of step S218 and step S220 again, performs the determination of step S222, and sets the key. When it is determined that is not operated, the process returns to the determination in step S216 again. When the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated until the setting key is operated, the set value is changed every time the operation is performed. The value is incremented by 1 and updated and displayed on the setting display 1310g. If the pressing operation part of the RWM clear button 633z is not operated, the setting value updated by operating the pressing operation part of the RWM clear button 633z immediately before is displayed. Displayed on the container 1310g. Even if a power failure or momentary power failure occurs and power is restored until it is determined in step S222 that the setting key has been turned OFF, the setting value updated immediately before the power failure or momentary power failure is the main value. Since it is not stored in the setting value dedicated area in the specific area of the control built-in RAM, it is discarded and the setting value stored in the setting value dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM is not changed.

  On the other hand, if the main control MPU determines in step S222 that the setting key has been turned OFF, the main control MPU stores the updated set value in the set value dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM (step S224). At this time, when the setting value is acquired in step S200, if the setting value stored in the setting value dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM is extracted and set in the predetermined area, the predetermined area Therefore, the updated setting value is returned to the setting value dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM. After completion of the processing in step S224, even if a power failure or a momentary power failure occurs and power is restored, the set value updated when the enter key is operated before the power failure or momentary power failure occurs is stored in the main control built-in RAM. Are stored in the setting value dedicated area in the specific area.

  Subsequent to step S224, the main control MPU stops the output of the lighting signal for displaying the updated setting value on the setting indicator 1310g to the setting indicator 1310g and updates the setting indicator 1310g. Is not displayed (step S228).

  Subsequent to step S228, the main control MPU stops the lighting signal to the setting change permission lamp 1310z and turns off the setting change permission lamp 1310z (step S230).

  Subsequent to step S230, the main control MPU sets a value 0 to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG (step S232). As described above, the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is set to the current setting value stored in the setting value dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM (the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a is turned ON. This is a flag indicating whether or not to permit setting change or confirmation display of setting value 1 to setting value 6 at the time of setting, and to perform setting change or confirmation display of the setting value The value is set to 1 when permission is allowed, and the value is set to 0 when permission to perform setting change or confirmation display is not allowed. In the process of step S232, by setting the value 0 to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG, the setting change of the setting value and the confirmation display are not permitted thereafter.

  Subsequent to step S232, the main control MPU determines whether or not the setting value stored in step S224 is within the normal range (step S233). The “normal range” is the same as that determined in step S208. As described above, in this embodiment, the setting value 1, the setting value 2, the setting value 3, the setting value 4, the setting value 5, and the setting value are set. Values up to 6 are preset. In the determination of step S233, the main control MPU reconfirms whether the set value is an abnormal value, so that the set value stored in the set value dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM is normal in step S224. It is determined whether or not any of the set value 1 to the set value 6 is within the range. When it is determined that the value is within the normal range, the set value is used as it is.

  In step S233, when determining that the main control MPU is within the normal range, the main control MPU performs serial communication initial setting (step S234), and subsequently creates a setting change command and sets transmission information (step S236). Subsequently, a peripheral control board transmission command transmission process is performed to transmit the transmission information (setting change command) set in step S236 to the peripheral control board 1510 as main peripheral serial data (step S238), and this routine ends. The serial communication initial setting in step S234 is the same as the serial communication initial setting in step S44 in the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. 113, and the peripheral control board transmission command transmission process in step S238 is shown in FIG. This is the same processing as the peripheral control board transmission command transmission processing of step S120 in the main control timer interruption processing shown in FIG. Here, in the serial communication initial setting in step S234, the transmission information (setting change command) set in step S236 in the peripheral control board transmission command transmission processing in step S238 is performed before the serial communication initial setting in step S44. The peripheral serial data is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 as a peripheral serial data. This is prioritized before the reservation of the command transmitted at power-on in step S50 in the main-control-side power-on process shown in FIG. This is to notify the peripheral control board 1510 that the setting value has been changed by a setting change command. The setting change command is a command for notifying the setting value whose setting has been changed and the completion of setting value storage. When the peripheral control MPU in the peripheral control board 1510 receives the setting change command, the peripheral control MPU updates the setting value history information (information in which the setting value is associated with the date and time) stored and held in a built-in RAM of the real-time clock IC (not shown).

  On the other hand, if the main control MPU determines in step S233 that it is not within the normal range, it performs error display processing (step S240) and enters an infinite loop. Due to this infinite loop, the state where the error display processing has been completed is maintained, and the game cannot proceed at all, and the power of the pachinko machine 1 is cut off and the power is turned on again. This error display process will be described in detail later. However, if it is determined that there is an abnormality in the contents of the main control built-in RAM, or if the main control side power-off process has not been completed normally when the power is shut off. If the determination is made, an error message indicating that the content stored in the main control built-in RAM is abnormal (or cannot be trusted) is displayed. In the present embodiment, the main control MPU displays the letter E on the setting display 1310g as an error display.

[8-5. Setting value confirmation display process]
Next, the setting value confirmation display process will be described. This set value confirmation display process is a process performed in step S28 in the main control side power-on process shown in FIG.

  When the set value confirmation display process is started, the main control MPU acquires the current installation value as shown in FIG. 116 (step S350). Here, the main control MPU acquires the set value stored in the set value dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM.

  Subsequent to step S350, the main control MPU determines whether or not the set value acquired in step S350 is within a normal range (step S352). The “normal range” is the same as the determination in step S208 and the determination in step S233 in the setting change process in FIG. 131. As described above, in this embodiment, the setting value 1, the setting value 2, and the setting The values up to value 3, set value 4, set value 5, and set value 6 are preset. In the determination in step S357, the main control MPU reconfirms whether the set value is an abnormal value, in order to reconfirm that the set value is acquired in step S350 (that is, the set value dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM). Is determined to be one of the set values 1 to 6 within the normal range, and when it is determined to be within the normal range, the set value is used as it is. To do.

  In the determination in step S352, when the main control MPU determines that it is in the normal range, it outputs a lighting signal for displaying the setting value acquired in step S350 on the setting indicator 1310g to the setting indicator 1310g. The set value is displayed for 1310 g (step S354).

  On the other hand, if the main control MPU determines in step S352 that it is not in the normal range, it performs error display processing (step S356) and enters an infinite loop. Due to this infinite loop, the state where the error display processing has been completed is maintained, and the game cannot proceed at all, and the power of the pachinko machine 1 is cut off and the power is turned on again. This error display process will be described in detail later. However, if it is determined that there is an abnormality in the contents of the main control built-in RAM, or if the main control side power-off process has not been completed normally when the power is shut off. If the determination is made, an error message indicating that the content stored in the main control built-in RAM is abnormal (or cannot be trusted) is displayed. In the present embodiment, the main control MPU displays the letter E on the setting display 1310g as an error display.

  Subsequent to step S354, the main control MPU determines whether or not there is a setting key OFF operation (step S358). In this determination, the main control MPU inserts the setting key into the insertion port 1311ab of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a, and sets the setting key switch 1311a from the rotation position of the setting key cylinder to the initial position (i.e., When the setting key cylinder 1311ab is rotated 60 degrees counterclockwise so as to return the setting key switch 1311a to the rotation position), the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF. Based on an OFF signal from the setting key switch 1311a, when the OFF signal from the setting key switch 1311a is input, it is determined that the setting key has been turned OFF, while an OFF signal from the setting key switch 1311a is received. Entered Setting key when there is no determined not to be OFF operation.

  In the determination in step S358, when the main control MPU determines that the setting key has not been turned OFF, the main control MPU returns to the determination in step S358 again and repeats the determination in step S358 until the setting key is turned OFF.

  On the other hand, if the main control MPU determines in step S358 that the setting key has been turned OFF, the main signal is displayed on the setting indicator 1310g for displaying the setting value acquired in step S350 on the setting indicator 1310g. The output is stopped and the acquired set value is not displayed on the setting display 1310g (step S360).

  Subsequent to step S360, the main control MPU sets a value 0 to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG (step S361). As described above, the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is set to the current setting value stored in the setting value dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM (the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a is turned ON. This is a flag indicating whether or not to permit setting change or confirmation display of setting value 1 to setting value 6 at the time of setting, and to perform setting change or confirmation display of the setting value The value is set to 1 when permission is allowed, and the value is set to 0 when permission to perform setting change or confirmation display is not allowed. In the process of step S232, by setting the value 0 to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG, the setting change of the setting value and the confirmation display are not permitted thereafter.

  Subsequent to step S361, the main control MPU performs serial communication initial setting (step S362), then creates a set value confirmation display command and sets transmission information (step S364), and then in step S364. Peripheral control board transmission command transmission processing for transmitting the set transmission information (set value confirmation display command) to the peripheral control board 1510 as main peripheral serial data is performed (step S366), and this routine is terminated. The serial communication initial setting in step S362 is the same process as the serial communication initial setting in step S44 in the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. 113, and the peripheral control board transmission command transmission process in step S366 is the same as that shown in FIG. This is the same processing as the peripheral control board transmission command transmission processing of step S120 in the main control timer interruption processing shown in FIG. Here, in the serial communication initial setting in step S362, the transmission information (setting value confirmation display command) set in step S364 in the peripheral control board transmission command transmission process in step S366 is performed before the serial communication initial setting in step S44. Is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 as the main circumference serial data. This is done before the command reservation setting at step S50 in the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. This is to give priority to the peripheral control board 1510 by the setting value confirmation display command that the confirmation of the setting value has been completed. The set value confirmation display command indicates that the set value confirmation display process as this routine has been completed (that is, the confirmation of the set value stored in the set value dedicated area in the specific area of the main control built-in RAM has been completed). ).

[8-6. Error display processing]
Next, error display processing will be described. This error display process is a process performed in step S33 in the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. 112, and a process performed in step S37 in the main control-side power-on process shown in FIG. 112 (FIG. 115). ) In step S240 in the setting change process shown in FIG. 112, and in step S28 in the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. 112 (step S356 in the set value confirmation display process shown in FIG. 116). It is the process performed in.

  When the error display process is started, the main control MPU stops the firing permission signal as shown in FIG. 117 (step S400). As described above, the launch permission signal indicates that the launch of the game ball B is permitted to the launch control unit 633b of the payout control board 633. When the logic is set to the launch permission logic, the launch permission signal is fired. Can be informed that the launch is permitted, while if the logic is set to the launch stop logic (the launch non-permission logic) that is the reverse of the launch permission logic, the launch can be stopped (not permitted). .

  An error display process that is this routine is a process performed in step S33 in the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. 112, and a process performed in step S37 in the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. (Specifically, the process performed in step S240 in the setting change process shown in FIG. 115) or the process performed in step S28 in the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. 112 (specifically, FIG. 116). The main control MPU can perform the interrupt permission setting in step S52 in the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. 113. In the setting value confirmation display process shown in FIG. Therefore, the main control side timer interrupt processing shown in FIG. , It is impossible to perform firing permission signal setting process in step S113 in the same process. The firing permission signal is output from the output terminal of the predetermined output port of the main control MPU to the launch control unit 633b of the payout control board 633 via the main control output circuit with a reset function. The main control output circuit is reset, and its logic is the firing stop logic (fire non-permission logic) obtained by inverting the fire permission logic.

  Therefore, the error display process of this routine is the process performed in step S33 in the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. 112, and the process performed in step S37 in the main control-side power-on process shown in FIG. One process (specifically, the process performed in step S240 in the setting change process illustrated in FIG. 115) or the process performed in step S28 in the main control side power-on process illustrated in FIG. 112 (specifically, 116, the main control MPU starts the error display process, which is this routine, after power recovery in step S400. In order to reliably prevent the game ball B from being fired, It is set to fire stop logic logic (firing unauthorized logic) to the fire control unit 633b of the dispensing control board 633 via the reset function main control output circuit from the output terminal of the predetermined output port.

  Subsequent to step S400, a lighting signal for displaying the letter E on the setting display 1310g as an error display is output to the setting display 1310g to display an error on the setting display 1310g (step S402).

  Subsequent to step S402, the main control MPU displays an error on the function display unit 1400 (step S404). In step S404, a lighting signal for lighting all the various indicators of the function display unit 1400 is output to the function display unit 1400, and an error is displayed on the function display unit 1400.

  Subsequent to step S404, the main control MPU performs serial communication initial setting (step S406), then creates an error display command and sets transmission information (step S408), and then sets in step S406. Peripheral control board transmission command transmission processing for transmitting the transmission information (error display command) as main peripheral serial data to the peripheral control board 1510 is performed (step S410), and this routine ends.

  The serial communication initial setting in step S406 includes the serial communication initial setting in step S234 in the setting change process shown in FIG. 115, the serial communication initial setting in step S362 in the setting value confirmation display process shown in FIG. This is the same processing as the serial communication initial setting in step S44 in the main control-side power-on processing shown, and the peripheral control board transmission command transmission processing in step S410 is the same as that in step S238 in the setting change processing shown in FIG. The control board transmission command transmission process, the peripheral control board transmission command transmission process in step S366 in the set value confirmation display process shown in FIG. 116, and the peripheral control board transmission in step S120 in the main control timer interruption process shown in FIG. It is the same processing as command transmission processingThe error display process that is this routine is the process performed in step S33 in the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. 112, and the process performed in step S37 in the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. 112 (FIG. 115). ) And the process performed in step S356 in the setting value confirmation display process shown in FIG. 116, respectively, and ends as described above. By this infinite loop, the state where the error display processing is completed is maintained, and the game cannot be progressed at all.

  Therefore, in this embodiment, the serial communication initial setting in step S406 is performed, and the transmission information (error display command) set in step S408 in the peripheral control board transmission command transmission processing in step S410 is used as the main peripheral serial data. 1510.

  The error display command is a command for notifying that the contents stored in the main control built-in RAM are abnormal (or unreliable). When the peripheral control MPU in the peripheral control board 1510 receives the error display command, it displays error display history information (information in which the error display command is associated with the received date and time) stored in the internal RAM of the real-time clock IC (not shown). Update.

  In addition, when the peripheral control MPU in the peripheral control board 1510 receives the error display command, a white background “A RAM error has occurred. Please call an attendant” in the blue background image in the display area of the effect display device 1600. While controlling to display the message image of the character, the volume adjusted by rotating the volume control switch on the peripheral control board 1510 with the announcement “RAM error has occurred. Please call me” Regardless of which, the maximum volume is forcibly set and control is performed from various speakers. The process of performing the RAM error notification by the error display command is the process having the highest priority. When the peripheral control MPU in the peripheral control board 1510 receives a command to transmit another error and receives the error display command, the RAM error notification is performed. Is the top priority.

[9. Various control processing of payout control board]
Next, various control processes performed by the payout control board 633 shown in FIG. 147 will be described with reference to FIGS. 118 to 121. 118 is a flowchart showing an example of the payout control unit power-on process, FIG. 119 is a flowchart showing the payout control unit power-on process in FIG. 118, and FIG. 120 is a payout control unit following FIG. FIG. 121 is a flowchart showing an example of a payout control unit timer interrupt process. First, the payout control unit power-on process will be described, and then the payout control unit timer interrupt process will be described.

[9-1. Discharge control unit power-on processing]
First, when the pachinko machine 1 is powered on, the payout control unit power-on process is performed as shown in FIGS. 118 to 120 under the control of the payout control unit 633a of the payout control board 633. . When the payout control unit power-on process is started, the payout control MPU sets an interrupt mode (step S500). This interrupt mode is used to set the priority order of interrupts of the payout control MPU. In this embodiment, a payout control unit timer interrupt process, which will be described later, is set as the highest priority, and when an interrupt of this payout control unit timer interrupt process occurs, the process is preferentially performed.

  Subsequent to step S500, the payout control MPU performs input / output setting (I / O input / output setting) (step S502). In this I / O input / output setting, various input ports and various output ports of the payout control MPU are set.

  Subsequent to step S502, the payout control MPU performs the wait timer process 1 (step S506), and determines whether or not a power failure warning signal is input (step S508). The voltage does not increase immediately from when the power is turned on until the voltage reaches the predetermined voltage. On the other hand, when there is a power failure or a momentary power failure (a phenomenon in which the supply of power is temporarily stopped), when the voltage drops and becomes smaller than the power failure warning voltage, a power failure warning signal is input as a power failure warning from the power failure monitoring circuit of the main control board 1310. . Similarly, if the voltage becomes lower than the power failure warning voltage from when the power is turned on until it reaches the predetermined voltage, a power failure warning signal is input from the power failure monitoring circuit of the main control board 1310. Therefore, the wait timer process 1 in step S506 is a process for waiting until the voltage becomes larger than the power failure warning voltage and stabilizes after the power is turned on. In this embodiment, the wait timer process 200 waits for 200 milliseconds (wait timer) (wait timer). ms) is set. The determination in step S508 is performed based on a power failure warning signal from the power failure monitoring circuit of the main control board 1310.

  Subsequent to step S508, the payout control MPU determines whether or not the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated (step S512). As described above, the RWM clear button 633z has a function (RAM clear switch, setting switch button, and error release switch) that also has three functions, and is stored in a predetermined area of the payout control built-in RAM here. It operates as a function of a RAM clear switch for completely erasing information. This determination is made when it is determined that the RAM is not cleared when the logic of the signal (RAM clear signal) indicating that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z has been operated is HI, and the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z While it is determined that the RWM clear button 633z has been operated, when the logic of the signal (RAM clear signal) indicating that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z has been operated is LOW, it is determined that the RAM is cleared and the RWM clear button 633z It determines with the press operation part being operated.

  In the determination in step S512, when the payout control MPU determines that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated, the payout RAM clear notification flag HRCL-FLG is set to a value 1 (step S514). That is, the payout control MPU is in a state in which a RAM clear process for initializing a RAM (that is, a payout control built-in RAM) built in the payout control MPU can be executed for a predetermined time from when the power is turned on.

  On the other hand, when the payout control MPU determines in step S512 that the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is not operated, the payout RAM clear notification flag HRCL-FLG is set to a value 0 (step S516). The payout RAM clear notification flag HRCL-FLG is stored in the payout control built-in RAM of the payout control MPU, for example, various flags, various information stored in various information storage areas (for example, prize ball information storage area) The logic state of the PRDY signal stored in the CR communication information storage area and the prize ball stock number PBS, real ball count PB, drive command number DRV, inconsistency counter INCC, etc. This is a flag indicating whether or not the payout information related to payout of the PRDY signal output setting information etc.) is to be erased, and is set to a value of 1 when the payout information is erased and a value of 0 when the payout information is not erased. The payout RAM clear notification flag HRCL-FLG set in steps S514 and S516 is stored in a general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the payout control MPU.

  Subsequent to step S514 or step S516, the payout control MPU performs setting for permitting access to the payout control built-in RAM (step S518). With this setting, the payout control built-in RAM can be accessed, and for example, payout information can be written (stored) or read out.

  Subsequent to step S518, the payout control MPU sets a stack pointer (step S520). The stack pointer indicates, for example, the address accumulated on the stack to temporarily store the contents of the memory element (register) being used, or temporarily returns the return address of this routine when returning to this routine after completing the subroutine. It indicates the address that is stacked on the stack for storage, and the stack pointer advances each time the stack is stacked. In step S520, an initial address is set in the stack pointer, and the contents of the register, the return address, etc. are stacked on the stack from this initial address. Then, the stack pointer returns to the initial address by sequentially reading from the last stacked stack to the first stacked stack.

  Subsequent to step S520, the payout control MPU determines whether or not the payout RAM clear notification flag HRCL-FLG is 0 (step S522). As described above, the payout RAM clear notification flag HRCL-FLG is set to a value of 1 when the payout information is erased and to a value of 0 when the payout information is not erased.

  In the determination in step S522, the payout control MPU calculates a checksum when the payout RAM clear notification flag HRCL-FLG is 0, that is, when it is determined not to delete the payout information (step S524). This checksum calculates the sum by regarding the payout information stored in the payout control built-in RAM as a numerical value.

  Subsequent to step S524, the payout control MPU determines whether or not the calculated checksum value matches the checksum value stored in the payout control unit power-off process described later (at power-off). (Step S526). In step S526, when the payout control MPU determines that they match, it determines whether or not the payout backup flag HBK-FLG is 1 (step S528). This payout backup flag HBK-FLG is a flag indicating whether or not payout backup information such as payout information and checksum value is stored in the payout control built-in RAM in the payout control unit power-off process described later. A value of 1 is set when the control unit power-off process is normally terminated, and a value of 0 is set when the payout control unit power-off process is not normally terminated.

  In the determination in step S528, when the payout control flag UBK-FLG has a value of 1, that is, when it is determined that the payout control unit power-off process has ended normally, the payout control built-in RAM is set as the power recovery. Is set (step S530). In this setting, in addition to setting the payout backup flag HBK-FLG to a value of 0, power recovery time information is read from the ROM built in the payout control MPU (that is, the payout control built-in ROM). Information is set in the work area of the payout control built-in RAM. Accordingly, the above-mentioned payout backup information stored in the payout control built-in RAM, various flags, various information stored in various information storage areas, etc. (for example, prizes stored in the prize ball information storage area, PRDY signal output setting information in which the logic state of the PRDY signal stored in the CR communication information storage area, such as the ball stock number PBS, the real ball count PB, the drive command number DRV, the inconsistency counter INCC, and the like, Information used for various processes is set based on payout information relating to payout of inconsistency counter reset determination time (stored in the time management information storage area). Note that “recovery” includes not only a state in which the power is turned on after being turned off, but also a state in which power is restored after a power failure or a momentary power failure.

  On the other hand, in the determination in step S522, the payout control MPU determines that the payout RAM clear notification flag HRCL-FLG is not a value 0 (value 1), that is, determines that the payout information is to be deleted, or in the determination in step S526. When the payout control MPU determines that the checksum values do not match, or in the determination of step S528, the payout control MPU determines that the payout backup flag HBK-FLG is not a value 1 (value 0), that is, When it is determined that the payout control unit power-off process is not normally terminated, the entire area of the payout control built-in RAM is cleared (step S532). Thereby, the payout backup information stored in the payout control built-in RAM is cleared.

  Subsequent to step S532, the payout control MPU sets a work area of the payout control built-in RAM as an initial setting (step S534). In this setting, the initial information is read from the payout control built-in ROM, and the initial information is set in the work area of the payout control built-in RAM.

  Subsequent to step S530 or step S534, the payout control MPU performs an interrupt initial setting (step S536). This setting is to set an interrupt cycle when a payout control unit timer interrupt process to be described later is performed. In this embodiment, it is set to 2 ms.

  Subsequent to step S536, the payout control MPU performs interrupt permission setting (step S538). With this setting, the payout control unit timer interrupt process is repeated every interrupt cycle set in step S536, that is, every 2 ms.

  Subsequent to step S538, the payout control MPU sets a value A in the watchdog timer clear register HWCL (step S539). The watchdog timer is cleared by setting the value A, the value B, and the value C in this watchdog timer clear register HWCL in order.

  Subsequent to step S539, the payout control MPU determines whether or not a power failure notice signal is input (step S540). As described above, when the power of the pachinko machine 1 is cut off, or when a power failure or instantaneous power failure occurs, a power failure warning signal is input from the power failure monitoring circuit of the main control board 1310 as a power failure warning voltage as described above. Is done. The determination in step S540 is made based on this power failure notice signal.

  In the determination at step S540, when the payout control MPU determines that no power failure warning signal is input, it determines whether or not the 2 ms elapsed flag HT-FLG is a value 1 (step S542). This 2 ms elapsed flag HT-FLG is a flag for measuring 2 ms in a payout control unit timer interrupt process processed every 2 ms, which will be described later. Is set.

  In the determination in step S542, the payout control MPU returns to step S540 when the 2 ms elapsed flag HT-FLG is 0, that is, when it is determined that 2 ms has not elapsed, the payout control MPU receives the power failure warning signal. It is determined whether or not it has been done.

  On the other hand, when the 2 ms elapsed flag HT-FLG is 1 in the determination in step S542, that is, when it is determined that 2 ms has elapsed, the payout control MPU sets the value 0 to the 2 ms elapsed flag HT-FLG (step S544). ).

  Subsequent to step S544, the payout control MPU sets a value B in the watchdog timer clear register HWCL (step S546). At this time, the value B is set in the watchdog timer clear register HWCL following the value A set in step S539.

  Subsequent to step S546, the payout control MPU performs a port output process (step S548). In this port output process, various information is read from the output information storage area of the payout control built-in RAM, and various signals are output from the output terminals of the various output ports of the payout control MPU based on the various information. In the output information storage area, for example, payer ACK information that indicates that various commands (prize ball command and self-check command) related to payout from the main control board 1310 have been normally received, and drive control to the payout motor 584 are performed. Various information such as drive information, prize ball number information of the number of balls actually paid out by the payout motor 584, and LED display information displayed on the error LED display are stored, and payout control is performed based on this output information. When various commands relating to payout from the main control board 1310 are normally received from the output terminal of the predetermined output port of the MPU, a payer ACK signal is output to the main control board 1310 or a drive signal is output to the payout motor 584. The number of balls actually paid out by the payout motor 584 is output to the external terminal board 558 as a prize ball number information output signal. In or (embodiment, and outputs the winning balls count information output signal to the external terminal board 558 each payout motor 584 is actually paid out ten game balls.

  Specifically, a prize ball number information output determination counter for determining whether or not to output prize ball number information is provided. The prize ball number information output determination counter is provided by the payout motor 584. The number of game balls that have been paid out by the payout motor 584 is counted based on the detection signal from the payout detection sensor 591 in the port input process of step S550 described later. Is stored and updated in the award ball information storage area of the payout control built-in RAM by a process (program) (not shown) for monitoring the payout.

  In a process (program) (not shown) for monitoring the number of game balls actually paid out by the payout motor 584, a prize ball number information output determination counter stored in the prize ball information storage area of the payout control built-in RAM is used. The number of game balls actually paid out by the payout motor 584 is added to the value based on the detection signal from the payout detection sensor 591 in the port input process in step S550 described later, and the stored value is updated.

  In the port output process of step S548, the value of the prize ball number information output determination counter is read from the prize ball information storage area, and when the value of the read prize ball number information output determination counter exceeds the value 10 ( That is, when the number of game balls actually paid out by the payout motor 584 has reached 10 balls, the award ball number information output signal is output to the external terminal board 558 (in this case, the number of balls exceeding the number is indicated). The value is stored and updated in the prize ball information storage area of the payout control built-in RAM described above as the value of the prize ball number information output determination counter), and a display signal is output to the error LED display.

  Subsequent to step S548, the payout control MPU performs a port input process (step S550). In this port input process, various signals input to input terminals of various input ports of the payout control MPU are read and stored as input information in an input information storage area of the payout control built-in RAM. For example, a signal from the RWM clear button 633z (for example, when the RWM clear button 633z operates as an error release switch, it becomes an error release signal for notifying that the error displayed on the error LED display is released). Detection signal from blade rotation detection sensor 590, detection signal from payout detection sensor 591, detection signal from full tank detection sensor 154, BRQ signal from CR unit, BRDY signal and CR connection signal, transmitted by command transmission processing described later The main payment board ACK signal from the main control board 1310 that informs the main control board 1310 that the various commands have been normally received is read and stored as input information in the input information storage area.

  Subsequent to step S550, the payout control MPU performs timer update processing (step S552). In this timer update process, a ball bite determination time set as a determination condition when determining whether or not a ball bite state caused by the payout vane 589 to which the rotation of the rotation shaft of the payout motor 584 is transmitted, The skip determination time set when the fixed position determination of the payout vane 589 is not performed, and the determination condition is set when determining whether or not the game ball in which the lower tray 202 is stored is full. When determining whether or not the number of game balls taken into the guide passage 570a of the ball guidance unit 570 is greater than or equal to a predetermined number based on a detection signal from the ball cut detection sensor 574 In addition to performing time management such as the ball breakage determination time set as the determination condition, the number of game balls received and paid out by the ball housing portion 589b of the payout blade 589, and the actual number It is determined whether or not to reset the inconsistency counter INCC for monitoring whether or not the game balls that are not consistent with the number of balls detected by the payout detection sensor 591 are repeatedly paid out. At this time, time management of the judgment condition and the mismatch counter reset judgment time set is performed. For example, when the ball scratch determination time is set to 5005 ms, the timer interrupt period is set to 2 ms. Therefore, every time this timer update process is performed, the ball scratch determination time is subtracted by 2 ms, and the subtraction result is a value. When it becomes 0, the ball gummy judgment time is accurately measured. These various determination times are stored as time management information in the time management information storage area of the payout control built-in RAM.

  Subsequent to step S552, the payout control MPU performs CR communication processing (step S554). In this CR communication process, input information is read from the above-described input information storage area, and based on this input information, whether or not various signals (BRQ signal, BRDY signal, and CR connection signal) from the CR unit are input. judge. Based on various signals from the CR unit, the payout control MPU exchanges various signals with the CR unit. In the processing for setting the work area of the payout control built-in RAM in step S530, as described above, the payout backup information stored in the payout control internal RAM, various flags, and various information stored in the various information storage areas. (For example, the prize ball stock number PBS, the real ball count PB, the drive command number DRV, the inconsistency counter INCC, etc. stored in the prize ball information storage area, the PRDY stored in the CR communication information storage area, etc. Information to be used for various processes is set based on payout information relating to payout of PRDY signal output setting information or the like in which the logic state of the signal is set.

  By this process, for example, even if there is a momentary power failure or a power failure, values such as the prize ball stock number PBS, the real ball count PB, the drive command number DRV, and the inconsistency counter INCC at the time of power recovery are stored as payout backup information. The value of the award ball stock number PBS, the real ball count PB, the drive command number DRV, the inconsistency counter INCC, etc. immediately before the momentary power failure or power failure can be restored. As a result, when the payout operation of the game ball by the payout device 350 is executed, even if the payout operation cannot be continued due to a momentary power failure or a power failure, the payout operation can be continued at the time of power recovery. Therefore, the game balls can be paid out to the upper plate 201 and the lower plate 202 without excess or deficiency. In other words, in the CR communication process, the payout control MPU exchanges various signals with the CR unit, and when the game ball is paid out to the upper plate 201 or the lower plate 202, the payout control MPU performs a momentary power failure or power failure. Even if the exchange of various signals is interrupted and the payout of the game ball cannot be continued, the prize ball stock number PBS, the real ball count PB, the drive command number DRV, the inconsistency counter INCC, etc. at the time of power recovery By restoring the values to values such as the prize ball stock number PBS, the real ball count PB, the drive command number DRV, the inconsistency counter INCC, etc., which are stored as the payout backup information and immediately before the momentary power failure or power failure, The exchange of various signals between the pachinko machine 1 (dispensing control MPU) and the CR unit immediately before a power outage or power failure can be continued from the time of power recovery. With wear, so that it can continue to perform the payout of the game ball.

  As described above, the exchange of various signals between the pachinko machine 1 (payout control MPU) and the CR unit is restored to the state immediately before the instantaneous power outage or stop at the time of power recovery even if the power outage stops or stops. Therefore, various signals from the pachinko machine 1 (payout control MPU) and the CR unit are not changed by the influence of the instantaneous stop or stop. Therefore, the reliability of various signal exchanges between the pachinko machine 1 (payout control MPU) and the CR unit can be enhanced.

  Various information stored in the CR communication information storage area is included in the payout backup information. In the CR communication process, when power is restored, the PRDY signal output setting information is read from the CR communication information storage area stored in the payout control built-in RAM set in the process of setting the work area of the payout control built-in RAM in step S530. When the read PRDY signal output setting information is set to the logic state of the PRDY signal that indicates that the payout operation for paying out the rented ball is not possible, for example, the PRDY signal is paid out. Output from the output terminal of a predetermined output port of the MPU to the CR unit. The value of the inconsistency counter INCC in the prize ball information storage area stored in the payout control built-in RAM, which is included in the payout backup information, for example, in the retry operation monitoring process performed as one process of the main action setting process Is determined whether the value of the mismatch counter INCC is smaller than the mismatch threshold INCTH. If the value of the mismatch counter INCC is not smaller than the mismatch threshold INCTH, the retry operation is abnormal. In other words, it is determined that the game ball payout operation by the payout device 350 is in an abnormal state, the value 1 is set in the retry error flag RTERR-FLG, For example, if you are not communicating with the CR unit, pay a rental ball as an error status output setting to the CR unit. The logic state of the PRDY signal informing of dispensing operation is not possible (LOW) is set to PRDY signal output setting information stored in the CR communication information storage area for exiting.

  Thereby, in the CR communication process, the logic state of this PRDY signal is read from the CR communication information storage area and the PRDY signal is output from the output terminal of the predetermined output port of the payout control MPU at the next timer interruption from the time of power recovery. To the CR unit. Thus, for example, if the game ball payout operation by the payout device 350 is in an abnormal state immediately before the momentary power failure, the state is restored at the time of power recovery, so it is extremely early after power recovery. At this stage, a PRDY signal indicating that the payout operation for paying out the rented ball is impossible can be output from the output terminal of a predetermined output port of the payout control MPU to the CR unit, and the payout device 350 is supplied to the CR unit. It can be notified that the game ball payout operation by is in an abnormal state. As a result, it is possible to prevent the BRDY, which is a useless rental request signal from the CR unit, from being output at an extremely early stage from the time of power recovery.

  In the CR communication process, when the port connection process in step S550 reads the CR connection signal from the input information storage area of the payout control built-in RAM and the logic is HI based on the CR connection signal, that is, a pachinko machine. When the power supply 1 is turned on and the payout control board 633 and the CR unit are electrically connected, in order to inform that the payout operation for paying out the rented ball is possible, PRDY When the logic state of the signal is set to HI and output from the output terminal of the predetermined output port of the payout control MPU to the CR unit, while the logic is LOW, that is, when the pachinko machine 1 is powered on, When the payout control board 633 and the CR unit are not electrically connected, it is informed that the payout operation for paying out the rented ball is impossible. For the outputs from the output terminal of the predetermined output port of the payout control MPU logic state of the PRDY signal as LOW to CR unit. The logical state of the EXS signal that indicates that one payout operation has started or ended is stored as EXS signal output setting information in the CR communication information storage area of the payout control built-in RAM, and the payout control board 633 A CR connection signal that tells whether or not the CR unit is electrically connected is stored in the state information storage area as CR connection information.

  Subsequent to step S554, the payout control MPU performs a full tank and out-of-ball check process (step S556). In this full tank and out-of-ball check process, the input information is read from the above-mentioned input information storage area, and based on this input information, the game ball in which the above-mentioned lower plate 202 is stored by the detection signal from the full-tank detection sensor 154 The number of game balls taken into the guide passage 570a of the ball guide unit 570 described above based on the detection signal from the ball-cut detection sensor 574 becomes equal to or greater than a predetermined number. It is determined whether or not. For example, whether or not the game ball in which the lower plate 202 is stored is full is determined by using the timer interruption period 2 ms, and the full tank and the ball shortage check process from the full tank detection sensor 154. When the detection signal is ON and the detection signal from the full tank detection sensor 154 is OFF in the previous full (2 ms before) full and ball-out check processing, that is, the detection signal from the full tank detection sensor 154 is changed from OFF to ON. When the transition is made, the above-described full tank determination time is started in the timer update process in step S552. When the full tank determination time becomes 0 in the timer update process, that is, when the full tank determination time is reached, whether the detection signal from the full tank detection sensor 154 is ON in this full tank and ball shortage check process. Determine whether or not. In this determination, when the detection signal from the full tank detection sensor 154 is ON, the full tank information for notifying that the game ball stored in the lower tray 202 is full is stored in the state information storage area. To do. On the other hand, when the detection signal from the full tank detection sensor 154 is OFF, the full tank information that indicates that the lower tray 202 is not full with the stored game balls is stored in the state information storage area.

  Whether or not the number of game balls taken into the guide passage 570a of the ball guide unit 570 is greater than or equal to a predetermined number is also determined by using the timer interruption period 2 ms. When the detection signal from the ball break switch is turned ON, and when the detection signal from the ball break switch is OFF in the previous full (2 ms before) full ball and ball break check processing, that is, the detection signal from the ball break detection sensor 574 is When the transition is made from OFF to ON, the above-described ball breakage determination time is started in the timer update process in step S552. When the ball break determination time becomes 0 in the timer update process, that is, when the ball break determination time is reached, whether the detection signal from the ball break detection sensor 574 is ON in this full tank and ball break check process. Determine whether or not. In this determination, when the detection signal from the ball-cut detection sensor 574 is ON, the ball break is transmitted to indicate that the number of game balls taken into the guide passage 570a of the ball guide unit 570 is greater than or equal to a predetermined number. While the information is stored in the state information storage area, when the detection signal from the ball cutting detection sensor 574 is OFF, it is assumed that the number of game balls taken into the guide passage 570a of the ball guide unit 570 is not greater than a predetermined number. The ball breakage information to that effect is stored in the state information storage area.

  Subsequent to step S556, the payout control MPU performs command reception processing (step S558). In this command reception process, various commands (prize ball command and self-check command) related to payout from the main control board 1310 are received. When the various commands are normally received, the payer ACK information indicating that is stored in the output information storage area. On the other hand, when various commands cannot be received normally, a connection abnormality that indicates that an abnormality has occurred in the connection between the main control board 1310 and the payout control board 633 (an abnormality has occurred in various command signals). Information is stored in the state information storage area described above.

  Subsequent to step S558, the payout control MPU performs a command analysis process (step S560). In this command analysis processing, the command received in step S558 is analyzed, and the analyzed command is stored as received command information in the received command information storage area of the payout control built-in RAM.

  Subsequent to step S560, the payout control MPU performs a main operation setting process (step S562). In this main operation setting process, operation settings such as winning balls, lending balls, ball removal and ball play are performed, a retry operation is determined, and the number of unpaid balls (award ball stock number) is monitored. .

  Subsequent to step S562, the payout control MPU performs LED display data creation processing (step S564). In this LED display data creation process, various types of information are read from the state information storage area described above, display data to be displayed on the error LED display of the payout control board 633 is created, and stored as LED display information in the output information storage area described above. To do. For example, the above-described ball break information is read from the state information storage area, and when the number of game balls taken into the guide passage 570a of the ball guide unit 570 is not equal to or greater than a predetermined number based on this ball break information Display data (in this embodiment, display value 1 (number “1”)) is created and LED display information is stored in the output information storage area.

  Subsequent to step S564, the payout control MPU performs a command transmission process (step S566). In this command transmission process, various information is read from the state information storage area described above, and various commands (frame state 1 command, error release navigation command, and frame state 2 command) that are classified into state displays based on the various information are created. To the main control board 1310. For example, when the ball break information is read from the state information storage area, if the number of game balls taken into the guide passage 570a of the ball guide unit 570 is not equal to or greater than a predetermined number based on the ball break information, the frame state 1 A command is created and transmitted to the main control board 1310.

  Subsequent to step S566, the payout control MPU sets a value C in the watchdog timer clear register HWCL (step S568). By setting the value C in the watchdog timer clear register HWCL in step S568, the value C is set in the watchdog timer clear register HWCL following the value B set in step S546. As a result, the value A, the value B, and the value C are sequentially set in the watchdog timer clear register HWCL, and the watchdog timer is cleared.

  Following step S568, the process returns to step S539 again, and the payout control MPU sets a value A to the watchdog timer clear register HWCL, determines whether or not a power failure warning signal is input in step S540, and this power failure warning If no signal is input, it is determined in step S542 whether or not the 2 ms elapsed flag HT-FLG has a value of 1. If the 2 ms elapsed flag HT-FLG has a value of 1, that is, if 2 ms have elapsed, step S544 is performed. In step S546, the value 0 is set in the 2 ms elapsed flag HT-FLG, the value B is set in the watchdog timer clear register HWCL in step S546, port output processing is performed in step S548, port input processing is performed in step S550, and step S552. In step S554, the timer update process is performed. In step S556, a full tank and out of ball check process is performed, a command reception process is performed in step S558, a command analysis process is performed in step S560, a main operation setting process is performed in step S562, and an LED is displayed in step S564. Display data creation processing is performed, command transmission processing is performed in step S566, value C is set in watchdog timer clear register HWCL in step S568, and steps S539 to S568 are repeated. The processing from step S539 to step S568 is referred to as “payout control unit main processing”.

  Depending on the progress of the game by the main control board 1310, the processing content of the payout control unit main process varies. For this reason, the time required for the process of the payout control MPU varies. Accordingly, the payout control MPU preferentially outputs to the main control board 1310 a payer ACK signal notifying that various commands relating to payout from the main control board 1310 have been normally received in the port output processing of step S548. Yes. As a result, the payout control MPU ensures the processing time so that other fluctuating processes can be sufficiently performed.

  On the other hand, when it is determined in step S540 that the payout control MPU has received a power failure notice signal, the payout control MPU performs interrupt prohibition setting (step S570). With this setting, the payout control unit timer interrupt processing described later is not performed, writing to the payout control built-in RAM is prevented, and rewriting of the payout information described above is protected.

  Subsequent to step S570, the payout control MPU stops the output of the drive signal to the payout motor 584 (step S574). Thereby, payout of the game ball is stopped.

  Subsequent to step S574, the payout control MPU performs clear setting of the watchdog timer (step S576). As described above, the clear setting is performed by sequentially setting the value A, the value B, and the value C in the watchdog timer clear register HWCL.

  Subsequent to step S576, the payout control MPU calculates a checksum and stores the calculated value (step S578). The checksum is calculated by regarding the payout information in the work area of the payout control built-in RAM as a numerical value, excluding the storage area for the checksum value calculated in step S524 and the payout backup flag HBK-FLG.

  Subsequent to step S578, the payout control MPU sets a value 1 to the payout backup flag HBK-FLG (step S580). Thereby, storage of the payout backup information is completed.

  Subsequent to step S580, the payout control MPU performs prohibition of access to the payout control built-in RAM (step S582). With this setting, access to the payout control built-in RAM is prohibited, and writing and reading cannot be performed, and payout backup information stored in the payout control internal RAM is protected.

  Subsequent to step S582, the payout control MPU enters an infinite loop. In this infinite loop, the value A, the value B, and the value C are not set in this order in the watchdog timer clear register HWCL, so that the watchdog timer is not cleared. For this reason, the payout control MPU is reset, and then the payout control unit power-on process is performed again. Note that the processing in step S570 to step S582 and the infinite loop are referred to as “payout control unit power-off processing”.

  The pachinko machine 1 (payout control MPU) is reset when a power failure occurs or when an instantaneous power failure occurs, and performs a payout control unit power-on process when power is restored thereafter.

  In step S526, it is checked whether or not the payout backup information stored in the payout control built-in RAM is normal. Are inspected. In this way, by checking the payout backup information stored in the payout control built-in RAM twice, it is checked whether or not the payout backup information is stored by fraud.

[9-2. Payment control unit timer interrupt processing]
Next, the payout control unit timer interrupt process will be described. This payout control unit timer interruption process is repeatedly performed at every interruption cycle (2 ms in the present embodiment) set in the payout control unit power-on process shown in FIGS.

  When the payout control unit timer interrupt process is started, the payout control MPU sets the timer interrupt to be prohibited and switches (saves) the register as shown in FIG. 121 (step S590). Here, the general purpose storage element (general purpose register) used in the above-described payout control unit main process is switched to the auxiliary register. By using this auxiliary register in the payout control unit timer interrupt process, the value of the general-purpose register is not overwritten. This prevents the contents of the general-purpose register used in the payout control unit main process from being destroyed.

  Subsequent to step S590, the payout control MPU sets a value 1 to the 2 ms elapsed flag HT-FLG (step S592). This 2 ms elapsed flag HT-FLG is a flag that counts 2 ms every time this payout control unit timer interrupt processing is performed, that is, every 2 ms, a value of 1 when 2 ms elapses, and a value of 0 when 2 ms elapses. Each is set.

  Subsequent to step S592, the payout control MPU switches (returns) the register (step S594). This restoration is switched from the auxiliary register used in the payout control unit timer interrupt processing to the general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register). By using this general-purpose register in the payout control unit main process, the value of the auxiliary register is not overwritten. This prevents destruction of the contents of the auxiliary register used in the payout control unit timer interrupt process.

  Subsequent to step S594, the payout control MPU sets interrupt permission (step S596), and ends this routine.

[10. Various control processing of peripheral control board]
Next, various processes of the peripheral control board 1510 that receive various commands from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) shown in FIG. 147 will be described with reference to FIGS. 122 to 126. 122 is a flowchart showing an example of processing at power-on of the peripheral control unit, FIG. 123 is a flowchart showing an example of peripheral control unit V blank interrupt processing, and FIG. 124 shows an example of the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt processing. 125 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a peripheral control unit command reception interrupt process, and FIG. 126 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a peripheral control unit power failure notice signal interrupt process. First, the peripheral control unit power-on process will be described, followed by the peripheral control unit V blank interrupt process, the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process, the peripheral control unit command reception interrupt process, and the peripheral control unit power failure warning signal interrupt process. . In the present embodiment, the peripheral control unit power failure warning signal interrupt processing is set as the highest priority as the interrupt processing priority, followed by the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt processing, peripheral control unit command reception interrupt processing, and peripheral control unit The order of V blank interrupt processing is set.

  As described above, the peripheral control MPU of the peripheral control board 1510 has a CPU, RAM, VDP, VRAM, sound source, SATA controller, various I / O interfaces, and the like integrated on a single semiconductor chip.

[10-1. Peripheral control unit power-on processing]
First, the peripheral control unit power-on process will be described with reference to FIG. When the pachinko machine 1 is powered on, the peripheral control unit power-on process is performed as shown in FIG. 122 under the control of the peripheral control MPU of the peripheral control board 1510. When the peripheral control unit power-on process is started, the peripheral control MPU performs an initial setting process (step S1000). In this initial setting process, a process for initializing the peripheral control MPU itself, a hot start / cold start determination process, a process for setting a wait timer after reset, a process for transferring various control information (peripheral data), etc. I do. The peripheral control MPU first performs a process of initializing the peripheral control MPU itself. The time required for the process of initializing the peripheral control MPU is on the order of microseconds (μs), and the peripheral control MPU is initialized in a very short time. Can be As a result, the peripheral control MPU enters a state in which interrupt permission is set. For example, in the peripheral control unit command reception interrupt processing described later, the peripheral control MPU outputs commands from the main control board 1310 and pachinko machines related to the control of game effects. Various commands such as commands relating to the state of the machine 1 can be received.

  Subsequent to step S1000, the peripheral control MPU performs current time information acquisition processing (step S1002). In this current time information acquisition process, calendar information for specifying the date and time and time information for specifying hour, minute and second are acquired from the built-in RAM of the real-time clock IC (not shown), and the current control information is stored in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU. Set calendar information and current time information.

  In this embodiment, the peripheral control MPU acquires the calendar information and the time information from the built-in RAM of the real-time clock IC only once when the power is turned on. The peripheral control MPU outputs a clear signal to an external WDT (not shown) after performing the current time information acquisition process so that the peripheral control MPU is not reset.

  Subsequent to step S1002, the peripheral control MPU sets the value 0 to the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG (step S1004). This V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG is a flag for determining whether or not to execute a peripheral control unit steady process to be described later, and has a value of 1 when the peripheral control unit steady process is executed. Is set to 0 when not executing. The V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG is input from the VDP of the peripheral control MPU to notify that the screen data (information defining the screen configuration) from the peripheral control MPU can be received. A value 1 is set in a peripheral control unit V blank signal interrupt process, which will be described later. In step S1004, the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG is initialized once by setting the value 0 to the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG. The peripheral control MPU outputs a clear signal to the external WDT after setting the value 0 to the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG so that the peripheral control MPU is not reset.

  Subsequent to step S1004, the peripheral control MPU determines whether or not the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG is 1 (step S1006). When the peripheral control MPU determines that the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG is not 1 (value 0), the peripheral control MPU returns to step S1006 again to determine whether or not the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG is 1. Is repeatedly determined. By repeating such a determination, the process waits until the peripheral control unit steady process is executed. The peripheral control MPU determines whether or not the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG is 1, and then outputs a clear signal to the external WDT so that the peripheral control MPU is not reset.

  In step S1006, when the peripheral control MPU determines that the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG has a value of 1, that is, determines that the peripheral control unit steady process is to be executed, first, the peripheral control flag SP-FLG has a value of 1. Is set (step S1008). The steady processing flag SP-FLG is set to a value of 1 when the peripheral control unit steady processing is being executed, and to a value of 0 when the peripheral control unit steady processing is completed.

  Subsequent to step S1008, the peripheral control MPU performs a 1 ms interrupt timer activation process (step S1010). In this 1 ms interrupt timer starting process, a 1 ms interrupt timer for executing a later-described peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process is started, and the number of times this 1 ms interrupt timer is started and the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process is executed. The value 1 is set in the 1 ms timer interrupt execution count STN for counting the 1 ms timer interrupt execution count STN. This 1 ms timer interrupt execution count STN is updated by the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt processing.

  Subsequent to step S1010, the peripheral control MPU performs a presentation operation unit monitoring process (step S1014). In the effect operation unit monitoring process, in the effect operation unit information acquisition process in the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process described later, a first rotation detection sensor 347, a second rotation detection sensor 348, and a press detection provided in the effect operation unit 300. Based on detection signals from various detection sensors (hereinafter referred to as “various sensors provided in the rendering operation unit 300”) such as the sensor 381 and the elevation detection sensor 382, the rotation (rotation direction) of the rotation operation unit 302 and Various information obtained by operating the press operation unit 303 (for example, rotation (rotation direction) history information of the rotation operation unit 302 created based on detection signals from various sensors provided in the effect operation unit 300, and the press operation) Rotation based on the RAM of the peripheral control MPU to which the operation history information etc. of the unit 303 is set) Monitoring the presence or absence of an operation of the rotation direction and the pushing operation section 303 of the work 302, appropriately determined whether to reflect the status of the operation of the rotation direction and the pushing operation section 303 of the rotary operation unit 302 to the game effects. Specifically, if the volume is adjusted in the rendering operation unit information acquisition process, the sound generation schedule data is rewritten according to the adjusted volume, and if the brightness is adjusted, the light emission mode is set according to the adjusted brightness. Rewrite generation schedule data. As a result, the adjustment of the volume and the brightness is reflected in real time, and the presentation proceeds with the adjusted volume and the brightness.

  The peripheral control MPU also performs a lamp palette setting process as one process of the effect operation unit monitoring process. In the lamp pallet setting process, based on a lamp pallet setting table composed of a specified brightness value, a normal pallet value, and a special pallet value, the brightness of the LED used as direct light and the brightness of the LED used as indirect light; Set each. While the production is in progress, the lamp palette setting process is executed, and the player (or a staff member such as a store clerk in the game hall) operates the production operation unit 301 (the rotation operation unit 302 and the pressing operation unit 303) to perform the first operation. When one luminance designation value ranging from the luminance designation value to the 31st luminance designation value which is the maximum luminance is set, the above-described floor set in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU so as to become the set luminance designation value. The key information can be updated.

  Here, the brightness designation value, the normal palette value, and the special palette value that constitute the lamp palette setting table will be briefly described. As the specified brightness value, one specified brightness value can be set in a 32-step range from the 0th (zero) specified brightness value that is the minimum brightness (lights off) to the 31st specified brightness value that is the maximum brightness. A normal palette value and a special palette value, which will be described later, are set in advance in correspondence with the 0th (zero) luminance designated value to the 31st luminance designated value. A player (or a staff member such as a store clerk in the game hall) operates the operable operation operation unit 301 (the rotation operation unit 302, the pressing operation unit 303), and the 31st luminance that becomes the maximum luminance from the first luminance specified value. One luminance designation value can be set up to the designated value.

  For example, a player (or an attendant such as a store clerk in a game hall) rotates the rotation operation unit 302 in the clockwise direction, and the current luminance is temporarily set to the minimum luminance (lights off). When the first luminance designated value is set to the next highest luminance level after the value, a predetermined mathematical formula (for example, linear) from the first luminance designated value toward the 31st luminance designated value which is the maximum luminance is set. The brightness of the LED used as the indirect light and the brightness of the LED used as the direct light change along the tone curve or the spline curve tone curve), while the rotation operation unit 302 is turned off. When the current brightness is set to the maximum brightness when rotating clockwise, a predetermined mathematical formula (for example, from the 31st brightness specified value, which is the maximum brightness) toward the first brightness specified value (for example, Linear tone curve, or along the spline curve tone curve), and the LED used as an indirect light luminance changes to low, and brightness of the LED to be used as a direct light. When a player (or a staff member such as a store clerk in the game hall) rotates the rotation operation unit 302 to select a desired luminance and presses the pressing operation unit 303, the selected desired luminance is determined. In the present embodiment, a case where a player (or a staff member of a game hall clerk, etc.) can set the brightness during the production is prepared in advance, and at this time, the player (or a game hall clerk) Etc.) can be set to a desired luminance by operating the rotation operation unit 302 and the pressing operation unit 303. In addition, when a player (or a staff member such as a store clerk in the game hall) operates the rotation operation unit 302 at a predetermined position in the display area of the effect display device 1600 during the effect, the first luminance designated value to the 31st luminance are obtained. By displaying a bar-shaped indicator indicating the position up to the specified value, it is possible to visually indicate the desired brightness of the player (or a staff member such as a clerk of the game hall) as an image. It can be done. In the present embodiment, the 14th luminance designated value is set as the initial value (default).

  The normal palette value is set as the gradation information described above for the brightness of various LEDs mounted on various decorative boards provided on the game board side irradiated as direct light and various decorative boards provided on the door frame side. is there. As the normal pallet value, one of the 17 levels is selected in steps of 5% from the minimum pallet value (20%), which is the minimum value, to the maximum pallet value (100%), which is the maximum value. A mathematical expression (for example, a linear tone curve) in which a palette value corresponding to one luminance designation is predetermined in a range of 32 steps from the 0th (zero) luminance designated value to the 31st luminance designated value, which is a designated value. , Or a spline-like tone curve).

  The minimum pallet value (20%) is the maximum pallet value corresponding to one luminance designation in a range of 32 steps from the 0th (zero) luminance designated value to the 31st luminance designated value, which is the luminance designated value described above. (100%) is a value of 20%, and similarly for other palette values, the value (%) described in parentheses is the 0th (zero) luminance designated value that is the luminance designated value described above. Of the 32-step range extending to the 31st luminance specification value, the value is the maximum palette value (100%) corresponding to one luminance specification.

  In this embodiment, the maximum pallet value (100%) is selected in advance as the normal pallet value for various decorative boards provided on the game board side irradiated as direct light and various decorative boards provided on the door frame side. Among various decorative boards that are set as the above-described gradation information and are provided on the game board side that is irradiated as direct light, a palette for a specific decorative board (LED that feels dazzling to the player) (not shown) A value (50%) is selected in advance and set as the gradation information described above.

  In the special palette value, the luminance of various LEDs mounted on various decorative boards used for the light guide plate irradiated as indirect light is set as the gradation information described above. Unlike the normal palette value, the special palette value has only one level, and is one of the 32-level ranges from the 0th (zero) luminance specified value to the 31st luminance specified value, which are the luminance specified values described above. The palette value corresponding to the luminance designation is set as the gradation information described above along a predetermined mathematical formula (for example, a linear tone curve or a spline curve tone curve).

  As described above, if the luminance of the LED used as indirect light is the same as that of the LED used as direct light, the indirect light from the light guide plate is darker than the direct light. Therefore, in this embodiment, the brightness of the LED used as indirect light is set using a special palette value instead of the normal palette value set for the brightness of the LED used as direct light. It is possible to visually recognize the state in which the light guide plate emits light by indirect light at the first luminance designated value at the next highest luminance level after the 0th (zero) luminance designated value at which the minimum luminance (lights off) is obtained. The lowest possible brightness is set to a value almost equal to the 18th brightness specified value when the normal palette value is set to the maximum palette value (100%), and the range from the 1st brightness specified value to the 31st brightness specified value Among them, a palette value corresponding to one luminance designation value is set along a predetermined mathematical formula (for example, a linear tone curve or a spline curve tone curve).

  As described above, in the lamp palette setting process, the luminance of the LED used as the direct light and the LED used as the indirect light based on the lamp palette setting table composed of the luminance designation value, the normal palette value, and the special palette value. And the brightness of the LED used as direct light when the player (or a staff member such as a store clerk in the game hall) operates the rotation operation unit 302 and the pressing operation unit 303. While being set along the normal palette value corresponding to the designated value, the player (or a staff member such as a store clerk of the game hall) rotates the operation unit 302 and the pressing operation unit with respect to the brightness of the LED used as indirect light. It is set along the special palette value corresponding to the brightness designated value by the operation 303. As a result, when the player feels that the brightness of the LED used as direct light is dazzling and the player operates and sets the rotation operation unit 302 and the pressing operation unit 303 in order to reduce the brightness, as direct light, The brightness of the LED to be used is set to the lowest brightness (that is, the first brightness specified value at the next highest brightness level after the 0th (zero) brightness specified value at which the minimum brightness (lights off) is set), and this is linked. Thus, the luminance of the LED used as indirect light is also set to the lowest luminance (that is, the first luminance designated value at the next highest luminance level after the 0th (zero) luminance designated value at which the minimum luminance is turned off). However, the brightness of the LED used as indirect light is set to a value approximately equal to the 18th brightness designated value when the normal palette value is set to the maximum palette value (100%). Because, the light guide plate lowest luminance can visually recognize the state in which the emission by indirect light is set.

  Moreover, the programmer who designs the light emission mode individually sets the brightness of various LEDs mounted on the various decorative boards provided on the game board side and the various decorative boards provided on the door frame side with respect to the LEDs used as direct light. Even if it is not set, the light emission mode according to the flow of production is set, and the flow of production by the light emission mode of various LEDs mounted on various decorative boards provided on the game board side and various decorative boards provided on the door frame side The normal pallet value is set to a small pallet value (for example, 50%) for a specific decorative board that is too dazzling (or a slightly darker luminance can exert a more effect), and other By setting the normal pallet value to the maximum pallet value (100%) for the decorative substrate, the balance of the entire light emission mode can be changed very easily. That is, the player (or a staff member such as a store clerk of the game hall) operates the operable operation operation unit 301 (the rotation operation unit 302, the pressing operation unit 303) to change the first luminance from the first luminance specified value to the 31st luminance. Even if one luminance designation value is set over the luminance designation value, a small palette value (for example, 50%) corresponding to the one luminance designation value is set for a specific decorative board. For other decorative boards, one specified brightness value and the corresponding maximum palette value (100%) are set, so the relationship between the light emission modes set to each other (bright or dark) The luminance adjustment can be performed very easily without breaking the relationship.

  Furthermore, although indirect light from the light guide plate is difficult to adjust the brightness compared to direct light, the special pallet value that is different from the normal pallet value (that is, independent of the normal pallet value) for LEDs used as indirect light. Thus, the brightness can be set. Thereby, the brightness of the LED used as indirect light is managed by the special palette value, and the brightness of the LED used as direct light is usually managed by the palette value, so that the LED used as indirect light And the brightness of an LED used as direct light can be easily adjusted.

  Subsequent to step S1014, the peripheral control MPU performs display data output processing (step S1016). In this display data output process, in the display data creation process described later, the VDP of the peripheral control MPU reads image data from the SDRAM based on an instruction from the peripheral control MPU and generates it on the VRAM of the peripheral control MPU ( 1 frame) of drawing data is output. Thereby, various screens (images) are drawn (displayed) on the effect display device 1600. In the display data output process, when drawing exceeding the drawing capability of the VDP of the peripheral control MPU is performed, the output of the generated drawing data for one screen (one frame) is canceled. Yes. This can prevent delays in processing time, but so-called frame dropping will occur, but it will be possible to produce music, sound effects, etc. according to various effects from various speakers by sound data output processing described later. It is a mechanism that can prioritize production.

  Subsequent to step S1016, the peripheral control MPU performs sound data output processing (step S1018).

Thereby, sounds such as music and sound effects adapted to various effects flow from various speakers.

  Subsequent to step S1018, the peripheral control MPU performs scheduler update processing (step S1020). In this scheduler update process, various schedule data set in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU are updated. For example, in the scheduler update process, among the screen data arranged in time series constituting the screen generation schedule data, the order of the screen data from the head screen data to be output to the VDP of the peripheral control MPU is indicated. The pointer is updated.

  Further, in the scheduler update process, the pointer is used to indicate the number of light emission data to be output from the head light emission data among the light emission data arranged in time series constituting the light emission mode generation schedule data. Update.

  In addition, in the scheduler update process, among the drive data of electric drive sources such as motors and solenoids arranged in time series constituting the electric drive source schedule data, the number of the drive data from the head drive data is output. The pointer is updated to indicate whether to do so. The drive data of the electric drive sources such as motors and solenoids arranged in time series constituting the electric drive source schedule data is a peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt which is repeatedly executed every time a 1 ms timer interrupt described later occurs. It is updated by the motor and solenoid drive process in the process. In the motor and solenoid drive processing that is repeatedly executed each time this 1 ms timer interrupt occurs, an electric drive source such as a motor or solenoid is driven according to the drive data indicated by the pointer, and the next drive specified in time series is performed. The pointer is updated to the data, and the pointer is updated every time its own processing is executed. In other words, the drive data indicated by the pointer updated in the motor and solenoid drive processing is forcibly updated in the scheduler update processing. Even if other drive data is instructed from the drive data to be performed, it is forcibly updated so as to instruct the drive data that should be instructed originally in the scheduler update processing.

  Subsequent to step S1020, the peripheral control MPU performs a received command analysis process (step S1022). In this received command analysis process, various commands transmitted from the main control board 1310 are received in a peripheral control unit command reception interrupt process to be described later, and the received various commands are analyzed and used for various settings of effects. A random number (for example, a random number used for an effect related to holding prefetching) is updated.

When one luminance designation value up to the 31st luminance designation value is set, the above-described gradation information may be updated and set in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU so as to become the set luminance designation value. It can be done.

Thereby, an effect according to the lottery result of the peripheral control board 1510 is executed.

  The peripheral control ROM stores in advance various control programs, various data, various control data, and various schedule data for controlling the peripheral control unit 1511, the effect display control unit 1511, and the like. The various schedule data includes screen generation schedule data for generating a screen to be drawn on the effect display device 1600, light emission mode generation schedule data for generating the light emission modes of various LEDs, and sound for generating effect sounds such as music and sound effects.

  Subsequent to step S1022, the peripheral control MPU performs a warning process (step S1024). In this warning processing, when various commands classified into notification display are included in the command analyzed in the received command analysis processing in step S1022, the abnormality display mode for executing various abnormality notifications is set. Screen generation schedule data, light emission mode generation schedule data, sound generation schedule data, electrical drive source schedule data, and the like are read (extracted) from the peripheral control ROM and set in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU. In the warning process, when multiple abnormalities occur simultaneously, the abnormality notification is performed in the order of the priority registered in advance, and the abnormality is automatically resolved and the remaining abnormality notifications are automatically transitioned to. It is supposed to be. This allows you to monitor multiple anomalies at the same time without losing the information that an anomaly has occurred due to the occurrence of another anomaly after the occurrence of the anomaly but before resolving the anomaly Can do.

  Subsequent to step S1024, the peripheral control MPU performs an RCT acquisition information update process (step S1026). In this RTC acquisition information update process, the calendar information and the time information acquired in the current time information acquisition process in step S1002 and stored in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU are updated. By this RCT acquisition information update process, hour / minute / second which is time information stored in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU is updated, and the calendar information is stored in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU based on the updated time information. The date is updated.

  Subsequent to step S1026, the peripheral control MPU performs display data creation processing (step S1030). In this display data creation process, the pointer is updated in the scheduler update process in step S1020, and the screen data indicated by the pointer among the screen data arranged in time series constituting the screen generation schedule data is converted into the peripheral control ROM. Is read out (extracted) and output to the VDP of the peripheral control MPU.

  When screen data is input from the peripheral control MPU, the VDP of the peripheral control MPU reads image data from the SDRAM based on the input screen data and draws (displays) it on the effect display device 1600 (for one screen). One frame) of drawing data is generated in the built-in VRAM.

  Subsequent to step S1030, the peripheral control MPU performs sound data creation processing (step S1032). In the sound data creation processing, the pointer is updated in the scheduler update processing in step S1020, and the sound command data pointed to by the pointer among the sound command data arranged in time series constituting the sound generation schedule data, Read (extract) from the peripheral control ROM and set it in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU. When the sound command data is input from the peripheral control MPU, the sound source of the peripheral control MPU reads the sound data from the SDRAM and incorporates sound data such as music and sound effects according to the track number specified in the sound command data and outputs the sound data. Set the output channel to be used according to the channel number.

  In the sound data creation process, every time this sound data creation process is performed (that is, every time the peripheral control unit steady process is performed), the rotation position of the volume adjustment switch is based on the volume adjustment operation signal from the volume adjustment switch. Has been identified. The peripheral control MPU controls the sound source of the peripheral control MPU so as to obtain a volume corresponding to the rotation position of the volume adjustment switch, and in the sound data output process of step S1018, from the output channel set in the sound data creation process. Outputs sound data to various speakers. As a result, sounds such as music and sound effects adapted to various effects flow from various speakers.

  Specifically, the resistance value is varied by rotating the volume adjustment switch, and the voltage divided by the resistance value at the rotation position of the volume switch is converted from an analog value to a digital value to obtain a value of 0 to 0. The values are converted to 1024 levels up to 1023. In the present embodiment, the values of 1024 levels are divided into seven and managed as substrate volumes 0-6. The substrate volume 0 is set to mute, the substrate volume 6 is set to the maximum volume, and the volume is set to increase from the substrate volume 0 toward the substrate volume 6. Music and sound effects flow from various speakers by controlling the sound source of the peripheral control MPU so that the volume is set to the substrate volume 0-6. In this way, music and sound effects flow from various speakers by volume adjustment based on the turning operation of the volume adjustment switch.

  Note that the sound command data also includes a sub-volume value for adjusting the volume of the track in which the sound data is incorporated, and a plurality of tracks in the built-in sound source of the peripheral control MPU include effect sounds such as music and sound effects. In addition to the sub-volume value for adjusting the sound data and the volume of the sound, the sound data of the notification sound and the sound volume for notifying the clerk of the hall of the occurrence of the malfunction of the pachinko machine 1 and the fraud to the pachinko machine 1 Subvolume value to be included.

  Specifically, for the production sound, the above-described substrate volume adjusted by rotating the volume adjustment switch is set as the sub volume value, and for the notification sound, the volume adjustment switch is rotated. The maximum volume is set as the sub volume value without depending on the volume adjustment based on the operation. The sub-volume value of the effect sound is a predetermined period after the power is turned on (specifically, a period until the peripheral control unit finishes the initial setting process (step S1000) and the current time setting process (step S1002)) or a special symbol display. For a certain period of time (in this example, the peripheral control unit) when starting or stopping the variable display of special symbols (first special symbol, second special symbol) on the device (first special symbol indicator, second special symbol indicator) Until 0.5 seconds elapses after the decorative pattern change display is started after the change pattern command is received, or 0.5 seconds elapses after the stop display command is received at the peripheral control unit and after the decorative pattern confirmation display. The operation can be adjusted by operating the rotation operation unit 302 and the pressing operation unit 303 of the effect operation unit 300.

  Thus, in the pachinko machine 1 of this example, a predetermined period after the power is turned on (specifically, a period until the peripheral control unit finishes the initial setting process (step S1000) and the current time setting process (step S1002)) A certain period of time (in this example, surroundings) when the variable symbol display of the special symbol (first special symbol, second special symbol) is started or stopped on the special symbol indicator (first special symbol indicator, second special symbol indicator) From the time when the control unit receives the variation pattern command until 0.5 seconds elapses after the decorative symbol variation display is started. By operating the rotation operation unit 302 and the pressing operation unit 303 of the effect operation unit 300 except for the time until the second elapses). Is converted into seven levels of substrate volumes 0 to 6, and the voltage divided by the resistance value at the rotation position of the volume adjustment switch is further rotated by the rotary operation unit 302 of the effect operation unit 300. The sub-volume value of the production sound can be adjusted by setting the substrate volume by increasing or decreasing the substrate volume value by adding or subtracting a predetermined value according to the operation of the pressing operation unit 303 or It has become.

  The sound designation data also includes a master volume value for adjusting the volume of the output channel, and a plurality of output channels in the internal sound source of the peripheral control MPU include a plurality of sound sources in the internal sound source of the peripheral control MPU. Of the tracks, the sound data of the production sound built into the track to be used is combined with the sub-volume value that adjusts the volume of the production sound built into the track to be used. Actually, it is amplified to a master volume value that is a volume flowing from various speakers, and the amplified production sound is serialized and output as audio data.

  In this embodiment, the master volume value is set to a constant value, and when the volume of the combined production sound is the maximum volume, the volume flowing from various speakers is allowed to be the maximum allowable volume by being amplified to the master volume value. It is set to become. Specifically, for the production sound, among the plurality of tracks in the built-in sound source of the peripheral control MPU, the sound data of the production sound incorporated in the track to be used and the volume of the production sound incorporated in the track to be used The volume adjustment switch set as a sub-volume value for adjusting the volume is combined with the substrate volume adjusted by rotating the volume adjustment switch, and the volume of the combined effect sound is actually the volume flowing from various speakers. Amplified to the master volume value, serializes the amplified performance sound and outputs it as audio data. For the notification sound, the sound data of the notification sound incorporated in the track to be used and the sound data incorporated in the track to be used Regardless of the volume adjustment based on the turning operation of the volume adjustment switch set as the sub volume value for adjusting the volume of the notification sound, Synthesized and volume, and the volume of the synthesized notification sound, indeed, amplified to a master volume value as the volume flowing from various speakers, and outputs the amplified notification sound as the audio data serialization.

  Here, when the production sound is flowing from various speakers, a brief explanation will be given on the control of flowing the notification sound in order to notify the hall clerk or the like of the occurrence of the malfunction of the pachinko machine 1 or the illegal act on the pachinko machine 1. The sub volume value of the track in which the production sound is incorporated is forcibly set to mute, the sound data of the track in which this production sound is incorporated, the sub volume value set for the mute, and the notification sound are incorporated. The sound data of the track and the sub-volume value in which the volume of the notification sound is set to the maximum volume are combined, and the volume of the combined effect sound and the volume of the notification sound are actually set to the volume flowing from various speakers. Is amplified to a master volume value, and the amplified effect sound and notification sound are serialized and output as audio data. In other words, in reality, only the notification sound having the maximum volume flows from the various speakers. At this time, since the effect sound is muted, the effect sound proceeds in accordance with the sound generation schedule data described above, although it does not flow from various speakers.

  In this embodiment, the notification sound flows from various speakers for a predetermined period (for example, 90 seconds), and when the predetermined period elapses, the notification sound proceeds according to the sound generation schedule data forcibly set so far. The volume of the effect sound being performed is set again as the sub-volume value by adjusting the volume adjustment switch by rotating the volume adjustment switch (at this time, the rotation operation unit 302 and the press operation unit 303 of the effect operation unit 300 are changed). When the volume of the effect sound is adjusted by operation, it is set to the sub-volume value of the adjusted effect sound), and flows from various speakers.

  In this way, when the production sound is flowing from various speakers, the volume of the production sound is increased when the notification sound flows in order to inform the hall clerk or the like of the occurrence of the malfunction of the pachinko machine 1 or the illegal act on the pachinko machine 1. Although the sound is muted and the notification sound flows from various speakers, the sound that has been muted proceeds according to the schedule data for sound generation, so if the notification sound stops flowing from the various speakers after a predetermined period of time, The sound does not start to flow again from the point where the notification sound starts to flow, but starts to flow again from the point where the notification sound starts to flow according to the sound generation schedule data until a predetermined period has elapsed.

  In addition, the notification sound and the notification sound flow without depending on the volume adjustment based on the rotation operation of the volume adjustment switch, and the peripheral control MPU controls the volume of the sound from the mute to the maximum volume by the program. The sound source can be controlled and adjusted. The volume adjusted by this program can be smoothly changed from mute to maximum volume. For example, even if an attendant such as a game hall clerk operates the volume adjustment switch to set the volume to a low level, although the production sound such as music and sound effects flowing from various speakers is reduced, the pachinko machine 1 When a malfunction occurs or when the player is cheating, a notification sound set to a high volume (in this embodiment, the maximum volume) can be played. Therefore, even if the volume of the production sound is reduced, it is possible to prevent the attendant such as the store clerk of the game hall from becoming aware of the occurrence of the malfunction or the player's fraud by the notification sound.

  Subsequent to step S1032, the peripheral control MPU performs a backup process (step S1034). In this backup processing, the content stored in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU is copied and backed up to the steady processing backup area provided in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU, and the content stored in the SDRAM is provided in the SDRAM. Copy and back up to the regular processing backup area.

  Subsequent to step S1034, the peripheral control MPU performs WDT clear processing (step S1036). In this WDT clear process, a clear signal is output to the external WDT so that the peripheral control MPU is not reset.

  Subsequent to step S1036, the peripheral control MPU sets the steady processing flag SP-FLG to 0 as completion of execution of the peripheral control unit steady processing (step S1038), returns to step S1004, and returns to the V blank signal detection flag VB. -FLG is initialized by setting value 0, and the determination in step S1006 is repeated until value 1 is set in V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG in the peripheral control unit V blank signal interrupt processing described later. That is, in step S1006, the process waits until the value 1 is set to the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG. If it is determined in step S1006 that the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG is 1, the process proceeds from step S1008 to step S1008. The process of S1038 is performed, and the process returns to step S1004 again. As described above, when it is determined in step S1006 that the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG has a value of 1, processing in steps S1008 to S1038 is performed. The processing in steps S1008 to S1038 is referred to as “peripheral control unit steady processing”.

  In this peripheral control unit steady process, first, it is determined that the peripheral control unit steady process is being executed in step S1008, and the value 1 is set in the steady process flag SP-FLG. In step S1010, the 1 ms interrupt timer start process is started. , Step S1014,..., And step S1036. Finally, in step S1038, when the execution of the peripheral control unit steady process is completed, the steady processing flag SP-FLG is set to a value of 0. Become. The peripheral control unit steady process is executed when the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG is 1 in step S1006. As described above, the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG is inputted from the VDP of the peripheral control MPU to the peripheral control MPU to notify that the screen data from the peripheral control MPU can be received. The value 1 is set in a peripheral control unit V blank signal interrupt process, which will be described later. In the present embodiment, as described above, the frame frequency (number of screen updates per second) of the effect display device 1600 is set to approximately 30 fps as described above, so the interval at which the V blank signal is input is approximately 33. .3 ms (= 1000 ms ÷ 30 fps). That is, the peripheral control unit steady process is repeatedly executed about every 33.3 ms.

[10-2. Peripheral control unit V blank signal interrupt processing]
Next, a description will be given of the peripheral control unit V blank signal interrupt processing that is executed when a V blank signal indicating that the screen data from the peripheral control MPU can be received is input from the VDP of the peripheral control MPU. To do. When the peripheral control unit V blank signal interrupt process is started, the peripheral control MPU determines whether or not the steady process in progress flag SP-FLG is 0 as shown in FIG. 123 (step S1045). As described above, the steady processing flag SP-FLG has a value of 1 when the peripheral control unit steady processing in steps S1008 to S1038 in the peripheral control unit power-on processing of FIG. 122 is being executed. It is set to a value of 0 when execution of the process is completed.

  In step S1045, if the peripheral control MPU determines that the steady processing flag SP-FLG is not 0 (value 1), that is, if it is determined that the peripheral control unit steady processing is being executed, this routine is directly executed. finish. On the other hand, in the determination of step S1045, when the peripheral control MPU determines that the steady processing in progress flag SP-FLG is 0, that is, when it is determined that the peripheral control unit steady processing has been completed, the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG. Is set to 1 (step S1050), and this routine is terminated. As described above, the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG is a flag for determining whether or not to execute the peripheral control unit steady process. When the part steady process is not executed, the value is set to 0.

  In this embodiment, it is determined in step S1045 whether or not the steady processing flag SP-FLG has a value of 0, that is, whether or not the peripheral control unit steady processing has been completed, and the peripheral control unit steady processing is executed. When completed, the value 1 is set to the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG in step S1050. This is because the V blank signal is input when the peripheral control unit steady process is being executed. When the value 1 is set to the V blank signal detection flag VB-FLG, it is assumed that the peripheral control unit steady process is executed in step S1006 in the peripheral control unit power-on process of FIG. Forcibly canceling the process halfway and starting the peripheral control unit steady process from the beginning, the peripheral control unit of FIG. In step S1008 in the power-on process (peripheral control unit steady process), a value of 1 is set in the steady process flag SP-FLG to indicate that the peripheral control unit steady process is being executed. V blank signal interrupt processing, and in step S1038 in the peripheral control unit power-on processing (peripheral control unit steady processing) in FIG. 122, the steady processing flag SP-FLG is set to a value of 0, thereby peripheral control unit steady processing. Is transmitted to the peripheral control unit V blank signal interrupt process, which is this routine, and the steady processing flag SP-FLG is set in step S1045 in the peripheral control unit V blank signal interrupt process, which is this routine. It is determined whether or not the value is 0, that is, whether or not the execution of the peripheral control unit steady process has been completed. To have. In other words, this is a measure for the case where the peripheral control unit steady-state processing cannot be completed before the next V blank signal is input and the next V blank signal is input, so-called processing failure.

  As a result, in the current peripheral control unit steady process, if the process cannot be completed in about 33.3 ms and the process is dropped, the next determination is made in step S1006 in the peripheral control unit power-on process of FIG. It is in a state of waiting until the V blank signal is input. That is, the time required to execute the current peripheral control unit steady process that has been dropped is about 66.6 ms. Normally, a peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process, which will be described later, is repeatedly executed every time a 1 ms interrupt timer is generated by starting the 1 ms interrupt timer in step S1010 in the peripheral control unit power-on process (peripheral control unit steady process) in FIG. Is executed only 32 times for one peripheral control unit steady process. However, if there is a current peripheral control unit steady process that has been dropped as described above, the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process is not performed 64 times. No, it is executed only 32 times. In other words, even if the peripheral control unit steady process has failed, the consistency between the presentation progress state by the peripheral control unit steady process and the presentation progress state by the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process, which is timer interrupt control, is consistent. It is designed not to collapse. Therefore, even if the peripheral control unit steady process is lost, it is possible to reliably match the progress state of the performance.

[10-3. Peripheral control unit 1ms timer interrupt processing]
Next, the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process that is repeatedly executed every time the 1 ms interrupt timer is generated by starting the 1 ms interrupt timer in step S1010 in the peripheral control unit steady process of the peripheral control unit power-on process of FIG. 122 will be described. . When the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process is started, the peripheral control MPU determines whether or not the 1 ms timer interrupt execution count STN is smaller than 33 as shown in FIG. 124 (step S1100). As described above, this 1 ms timer interrupt execution count STN is determined by this routine when the 1 ms interrupt timer is activated in the 1 ms interrupt timer activation process in step S1010 in the peripheral control unit steady process of the peripheral control unit power-on process of FIG. It is a counter that counts the number of times a peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process is executed. In the present embodiment, as described above, the frame frequency (number of screen updates per second) of the effect display device 1600 is set to approximately 30 fps as described above, so the interval at which the V blank signal is input is approximately 33. .3 ms (= 1000 ms ÷ 30 fps). That is, since the peripheral control unit steady process is repeatedly executed about every 33.3 ms, after starting the 1 ms interrupt timer in step S1010 in the peripheral control unit steady process, the next peripheral control unit steady process is performed. The peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process is executed only 32 times before. Specifically, when the 1 ms interrupt timer is started in step S1010 in the peripheral control unit steady process, the first 1 ms timer interrupt is generated first, then the second,... Will occur.

  In step S1100, the peripheral control MPU determines that the 1 ms timer interrupt execution count STN is not smaller than 33 times, that is, the 33 ms 1 ms timer interrupt has occurred and this peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt processing has started. Sometimes, this routine is finished as it is. In the present embodiment, when the 33rd 1 ms timer interrupt occurs accidentally before the next generation of the V blank signal, in the present embodiment, the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process is the peripheral control unit V as the priority of interrupt processing. Although set higher than the blank interrupt process, the start of the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process by the 33rd 1 ms timer interrupt is forcibly canceled. In other words, in the present embodiment, since the V blank signal dominates the entire system of the peripheral control board 1510, if the 33rd 1 ms timer interrupt occurs accidentally before the next V blank signal generation, In order to execute the peripheral control unit V blank interrupt process, the start of the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process by the 33rd 1 ms timer interrupt is forcibly canceled. Then, after the 1 ms interrupt timer is started again in step S1010 in the peripheral control unit steady process due to the generation of the V blank signal, the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process is newly started by the first 1 ms timer interrupt generation. ing.

  On the other hand, when the peripheral control MPU determines in step S1100 that the 1 ms timer interrupt execution count STN is smaller than 33, the peripheral control MPU adds 1 to the 1 ms timer interrupt execution count STN (increment, step S1102). By adding 1 to the 1 ms timer interrupt execution count STN, the 1 ms interrupt timer is activated in the 1 ms interrupt timer activation process of step S1010 in the peripheral control unit steady process of the peripheral control unit power-on process of FIG. The number of times that the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process, which is this routine, is executed is increased by one.

  Subsequent to step S1102, motor and solenoid drive processing is performed (step S1104). In this motor and solenoid drive processing, the pointer indicates the drive data of the electric drive sources such as motors and solenoids arranged in time series constituting the electric drive source schedule data set in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU. In accordance with the drive data to be driven, an electric drive source such as a motor or a solenoid is driven, the pointer is updated to the next drive data defined in time series, and the pointer is updated each time the motor and solenoid drive processing is executed. To do. Thereby, an electric drive source such as a motor or a solenoid managed by the peripheral control MPU (for example, an electric drive source provided in the door frame 3 or an electric drive source provided in various effect units provided in the game board 5) is provided. Driven according to electrical drive source schedule data.

  Subsequent to step S1104, the peripheral control MPU performs a movable body information acquisition process (step S1106). In this movable body information acquisition process, it is determined whether or not detection signals from various sensors provided in various effect units provided in the game board 5 are input, thereby history information (for example, original signals) of detection signals from the various sensors. Position history information, movable position history information, etc.) are created and set in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU. The peripheral control MPU sets the original position (standby position) of various movable bodies provided in various effect units provided in the game board 5 based on history information of detection signals from various sensors set in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU. Or acquiring the movable position, the movable position is grasped.

  Subsequent to step S1106, the peripheral control MPU performs a presentation operation unit information acquisition process (step S1108). In this effect operation unit information acquisition process, it is determined whether or not detection signals from various sensors provided in the effect operation unit 300 are input, whereby history information of detection signals from various sensors (for example, a rotation operation unit) 302 (rotation direction) history information, operation history information of the pressing operation unit 303, etc.) are created and set in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU. The rotation direction of the rotation operation unit 302 and the presence / absence of the operation of the pressing operation unit 303 can be acquired from history information of detection signals from various sensors set in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU. In the pachinko machine 1 according to the present embodiment, by operating the effect operation unit 301, the volume of effect sounds output from various speakers is adjusted, or a plurality of decorative boards provided in the door frame 3 and the game board 5 are mounted. The brightness of various LEDs can be adjusted.

  Subsequent to step S1108, the peripheral control MPU performs a backup process (step S1110), and ends this routine. In this backup process, the contents stored in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU are copied and backed up to a backup area for 1 ms timer interrupt processing provided in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU, and the contents stored in the SDRAM are stored in the SDRAM. Copy and back up to the backup area for 1 ms timer interrupt processing provided. In this embodiment, the backup area for 1 ms timer interrupt processing provided in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU and the steady processing backup area provided in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU are set in different areas, and the SDRAM. The 1 ms timer interrupt processing backup area provided in FIG. 1 and the steady processing backup area provided in the SDRAM are set in different areas.

  As described above, in the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interruption process, various processes relating to the effects in steps S1104 to S1108 are executed as the progress of effects within a period of 1 ms. On the other hand, in the peripheral control unit steady-state process in the peripheral control unit power-on process in FIG. 122, various processes related to the effects in steps S1014 to S1032 are executed as the progress of effects within a period of about 33.3 ms. Yes. In the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process, when the 1 ms timer interrupt execution count STN is not smaller than the value 33 in step S1100, that is, when the first 1 ms timer interrupt is generated and the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process is started. Since this routine is ended as it is, even if the occurrence of the 33rd 1 ms timer interrupt happens to occur before the next V blank signal, the peripheral control unit by this 33rd 1 ms timer interrupt. The start of the 1 ms timer interrupt process is forcibly canceled, and after the 1 ms interrupt timer is started again in step S1010 in the peripheral control unit steady process due to the generation of the V blank signal, the peripheral control is newly performed by the first 1 ms timer interrupt. 1ms timer division It is adapted to start the actual processing. That is, the consistency between the progress state of the effect by the peripheral control unit steady process and the progress state of the effect by the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process which is the timer interrupt control is not lost. Therefore, it is possible to reliably match the progress of the production.

  Further, as described above, the interval at which the V blank signal is output varies somewhat depending on the liquid crystal size of the effect display device 1600, and the V blank signal is also generated in the manufacturing lot of the peripheral control board 1510 on which the peripheral control MPU is mounted. The output interval may change slightly. In this embodiment, since the V blank signal is a signal that dominates the entire system of the peripheral control board 1510, if the occurrence of the 33rd 1 ms timer interrupt happens to precede the next V blank signal, the peripheral control is performed. In order to execute the part V blank interrupt process, the start of the peripheral control part 1 ms timer interrupt process by the 33rd 1 ms timer interrupt is forcibly canceled. In other words, in the present embodiment, even if the interval at which the V blank signal is output changes slightly, by forcibly canceling the start of the peripheral control unit 1 ms timer interrupt process by the 33rd 1 ms timer interrupt, A time shift due to a slight change in the interval at which the V blank signal is output can be absorbed.

[10-4. Peripheral control unit command reception interrupt processing]
Next, the peripheral control unit command reception interrupt processing for receiving various commands from the main control board 1310 will be described. When various commands from the main control board 1310 are started to be transmitted as serial data, the peripheral control MPU receives the main peripheral serial data as 1 byte (8 bits) at the serial I / O port of the peripheral control MPU. The information is taken into the reception buffer, and when this fetching is completed, an interrupt is generated as a trigger, and peripheral control unit command reception interruption processing is performed. The main circumference serial data is composed of 3 bytes per packet, the status is assigned as the first byte, the mode is assigned as the second byte, and the status and mode are regarded as numerical values as the third byte and the total The sum value that is calculated is assigned.

  When the peripheral control unit command reception interrupt process is started, the peripheral control MPU determines whether or not the 1-byte reception period timer has timed out as shown in FIG. 125 (step S1200). The 1-byte reception period timer sets a period during which 1-byte (8-bit) information can be received from the main peripheral serial data transmitted from the main control board 1310.

  In the determination in step S1200, the peripheral control MPU receives 1 byte (8 bits) of information from the main peripheral serial data transmitted from the main control board 1310 when the 1 byte reception period timer has not timed out. If it is determined that it is within the period to be obtained, 1-byte information received from the reception buffer of the serial I / O port of the peripheral control MPU is fetched (step S1202), and a value 1 is added to the reception counter SRXC (increment, step S1204). ). This reception counter SRXC is a counter indicating the number of times the data has been extracted from the reception buffer. When the status, which is the first byte of the main peripheral serial data, is extracted from the reception buffer, the value is 1, and the mode is the second byte of the main peripheral serial data. The value is 2 when extracted from the reception buffer, and the value is 3 when the sum value, which is the third byte of the main serial data, is extracted from the reception buffer. The reception counter SRXC is set to an initial value 0 when the power is turned on.

  Subsequent to step S1204, it is determined whether or not the reception counter SRXC has a value of 3, that is, whether or not the sum value that is the third byte of the main peripheral serial data has been extracted from the reception buffer (step S1206). In this determination, the status that is the first byte of the main peripheral serial data, the mode that is the second byte of the main peripheral serial data, and the sum value that is the third byte of the main peripheral serial data are sequentially received from the reception buffer. It is determined whether or not it has been taken out.

  In step S1206, the peripheral control MPU determines that the reception counter SRXC is not the value 3, that is, following the status that is the first byte of the main peripheral serial data, the mode that is still the second byte of the main peripheral serial data, and If it is determined that the third byte of the main serial data is not sequentially taken out from the reception buffer, the 1-byte reception period timer is set (step S1208), and this routine is terminated. By setting the 1-byte reception period timer in step S1208, the mode that is the second byte of the main circumference serial data or the period during which the sum value that is the third byte of the main circumference serial data can be received is set.

  On the other hand, in the determination of step S1206, when the reception counter SRXC is 3, the peripheral control MPU is in the mode that is the second byte of the main peripheral serial data following the status that is the first byte of the main peripheral serial data. When it is determined that the sum value, which is the third byte of the main serial data, has been sequentially extracted from the reception buffer, the initial value 0 is set in the reception counter SRXC (step S1210), and the sum value is calculated (step S1212). . In this calculation, the status that is the first byte of the main circumference serial data and the mode that is the second byte of the main circumference serial data, which have already been extracted from the reception buffer in step S1202, are regarded as numerical values and the sum (sum value). ) Is calculated.

  Subsequent to step S1212, it is determined whether or not the sum value, which is the third byte of the main serial data already extracted from the reception buffer in step S1202, matches the sum value calculated in step S1212 (step S1212). S1214). The sum value which is the third byte of the main circumference serial data already extracted from the reception buffer in step S1202 is the sum value allocated as the third byte of the main circumference serial data from the main circumference serial data from the main control board 1310. Therefore, it should match the sum value calculated in step S1212. However, the pachinko machine 1 is supplied with game balls from the island equipment of the game hall, and when the game balls rub against each other and are charged, static discharge occurs and generates noise, so the pachinko machine 1 is affected by noise. It is in a friendly environment.

  Therefore, in this embodiment, the peripheral control board 1510 side regards the status assigned as the first byte of the received main circumference serial data and the mode assigned as the second byte of the main circumference serial data as numerical values. The sum (sum value) is calculated, and the calculated sum value matches the sum value allocated as the third byte of the main circumference serial data among the main circumference serial data from the main control board 1310. It is determined whether or not. As a result, the peripheral control MPU determines whether or not the main peripheral serial data has been changed to main peripheral serial data different from normal due to the influence of noise between the main control board 1310 and the peripheral control board 1510. be able to.

  In step S1214, the peripheral control MPU determines that the sum value, which is the third byte of the main peripheral serial data already extracted from the reception buffer in step S1202, matches the sum value calculated in step S1212. When received, the status assigned as the first byte of the main circumference serial data and the mode assigned as the second byte of the main circumference serial data are stored in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU (step S1216). This routine ends.

  On the other hand, in the determination of step S1200, the peripheral control MPU receives 1 byte (8 bits) of information of the main peripheral serial data transmitted from the main control board 1310 when the 1-byte reception period timer has not timed out. When it is determined that the period that can be received is exceeded, or in the determination in step S1214, the peripheral control MPU determines the sum value that is the third byte of the main peripheral serial data already extracted from the reception buffer in step S1202, and step S1212. When it is determined that the sum value calculated in (2) does not match, this routine is terminated as it is.

[10-5. Peripheral control unit power failure warning signal interrupt processing]
Next, the peripheral control unit power failure notice signal interrupt processing executed when the power failure notice signal from the power failure monitoring circuit of the main control board 1310 is input from the main control board 1310 will be described. When this peripheral control unit power failure warning signal interrupt process is started, the peripheral control MPU first activates a 2 microsecond timer (step S1300) as shown in FIG. 126, and determines whether or not a power failure warning signal is input. Determination is made (step S1302). If the peripheral control MPU determines in step S1302 that the power failure warning signal has not been input, the routine is terminated.

  On the other hand, when the peripheral control MPU determines in step S1302 that the power failure warning signal has been input, it determines whether or not 2 microseconds have elapsed (step S1304). In this determination, it is determined whether or not the timer activated in step S1300 has passed 2 microseconds. In the determination in step S1304, when 2 macro seconds have not elapsed, the peripheral control MPU returns to step S1302, determines whether or not a power failure warning signal is input, and determines that a power failure warning signal is not input. While sometimes this routine is terminated as it is, when it is determined that a power failure warning signal has been input, it is again determined in step S1304 whether 2 microseconds have elapsed. That is, in the determination in step S1304, it is determined whether or not the power failure warning signal is continuously input for 2 microseconds after the peripheral control unit power failure warning signal interrupt processing, which is this routine, is started.

  If the peripheral control MPU determines in step S1304 that the peripheral control unit power failure warning signal interrupt processing, which is this routine, has been started and the power failure warning signal has been input for 2 microseconds, it performs power saving processing ( Step S1306). In this power saving process, the power consumption of the entire system of the pachinko machine 1 is reduced by sequentially turning off the backlight of the effect display device 1600, turning off excitation of motors and solenoids provided in the game board 5, and turning off various LEDs. By suppressing the power, the stable operation is ensured only for a period of 20 milliseconds, which is the time during which the peripheral control MPU can operate even when the power of the pachinko machine 1 is cut off.

  Subsequent to step S1306, the peripheral control MPU performs command reception standby processing (step S1308). In this command reception standby process, assuming that there are various commands being transmitted by the main control board 1310, at least a period of 17 milliseconds so that the peripheral control MPU can receive the command being transmitted. It is supposed to wait. When a command is received, the peripheral control unit command reception interrupt process described above is started, and the received command is stored in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU.

  Subsequent to step S1308, the peripheral control MPU performs command backup processing (step S1310). In this command backup process, the command stored in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU is copied and backed up to a steady process backup area provided in the RAM of the peripheral control MPU.

  Subsequent to step S1310, the peripheral control MPU determines whether or not a power failure notice signal is input (step S1312). If the peripheral control MPU determines in step S1312, that the power failure warning signal has been input, the peripheral control MPU performs WDT clear processing (step S1314). In this WDT clear process, a clear signal is output to the external WDT so that the peripheral control MPU is not reset.

  On the other hand, in the determination in step S1312, the peripheral control MPU returns to step S1312 again after determining that the power failure notification signal is not input or following step S1314, and determines whether or not the power failure notification signal is input. judge. That is, it is determined indefinitely whether or not a power failure notice signal is input. By continuing the determination indefinitely in this manner, in the determination in step S1312, the peripheral control MPU cannot output a clear signal to the external WDT when determining that the power failure warning signal is not input, and the peripheral control While the MPU is reset, if the peripheral control MPU determines in step S1312 that a power failure warning signal has been input, it performs a WDT clear process in step S1314, and the peripheral control MPU is not reset. If the peripheral control MPU is reset, the peripheral control unit power-on process shown in FIG. 122 is started again.

  As described above, when the input of the power failure warning signal is continued in the infinite loop in the determination in step S1312, the peripheral control MPU is not reset immediately before the power failure state is established by executing the WDT clear process in step S1314. It has become. On the other hand, when the input of the power failure warning signal is canceled without being continued in the infinite loop as determined in step S1312, the output of the clear signal to the external WDT is interrupted because the WDT clear process is not executed. It has become. As a result, even if the peripheral control unit power failure warning signal interrupt processing, which is this routine, is started erroneously due to noise or the like and the noise is generated beyond the period of 2 microseconds, the determination of step S1302 is passed. If the input of the power failure warning signal is canceled without being continued in the infinite loop as determined in S1312, the peripheral control MPU is reset because the WDT clear process in Step S1314 is not executed. It is possible to cope with various noises by automatically resetting.

[11. Control processing of main control board]
Next, an example of control processing executed by the main control board 1310 (particularly the main control MPU) will be described. FIG. 127 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the special symbol and special electric accessory control process (step S114).

  Now, assuming that random numbers used for various lottery processes are updated (step S13), as shown in FIG. 127, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 is first controlled by the first start port sensor 2101. On condition that the detection signal is on (the ball enters the first start port 2002) (step S2031), the first special random number of the first special symbol is obtained from the random number counter and is obtained from the RAM number. A first start port passing process such as storing in one special symbol holding storage area is executed (step S2032). Also, on condition that the detection signal from the second start port sensor 2402 is on (the ball enters the second start port 2004) (step S2033), the second special random number of the second special symbol is set to the random number. A second start port passage process such as obtaining from the counter and storing it in the second special symbol holding storage area of the RAM is executed (step S2034).

  Next, it is determined whether or not a big hit execution flag indicating that the big hit gaming state is being controlled is set (step S2035). If the big hit execution flag is set, the big hit gaming state is controlled. The big hit control process (step S2039) is executed. In the big hit control process, when the result of the lottery process regarding the display mode at the time of the variable display stop of the special symbol (the first special symbol, the second special symbol) becomes a mode suggesting “15R big hit A”, According to the 15R jackpot gaming state A, the winning prize opening 2005 is controlled to open and close, and a sorting piece 2415 for distributing the game ball B received by the big winning prize opening 2005 to either the first receiving port 2007 or the second receiving port 2008 is provided. Drive control is performed, and a process of setting the valid state in the 15th round in which the game balls B can be distributed to the second receiving port 2008 is executed. Also, when the mode suggests “15R big hit B”, the big winning opening 2005 is controlled to open and close according to the 15R big hit gaming state B, and the game ball B received in the big winning opening 2005 is received as the first receiving opening. The distribution piece 2415 that is distributed to either the 2007 or the second receiving port 2008 is driven and controlled, and a process of setting the valid state to the 15th round in which the game ball B can be distributed to the second receiving port 2008 is executed.

  Here, the “valid state” and “invalid state” will be described. First, in the present embodiment, a “valid state” is provided as a state when the game ball B is received at the second receiving port 2008. Here, the “valid state” indicates that in the 15th round in which the game balls B can be distributed to the second receiving port 2008, the game balls B are received by the second receiving port 2008, and the high hit state after the end of the big hit gaming state. It is a state that is allowed (validated) to be controlled to a probability state. Therefore, when the game ball B is received in the second receiving port 2008 in the “valid state”, the high probability state is controlled after the end of the big hit gaming state. Further, in the present embodiment, the “invalid state” different from the “valid state” is set as a state in which the game ball B is not received at the second receiving port 2008. Here, the “invalid state” is a state in which the game ball B is not accepted by the second receiving port 2008 in principle, such as the 1st to 14th rounds in which the game ball B is distributed to the first receiving port 2007. Even if the game ball B is received at the second receiving port 2008, it is not permitted (invalidated) to be controlled to a high probability state after the big hit gaming state is finished. Therefore, even if the game ball B is received at the second receiving port 2008 in the “invalid state”, the high probability state is not controlled after the big hit game state is ended. In addition, the “invalid state” makes it possible to notify the hall management side of information relating to such an abnormality when the game ball B is received at the second receiving port 2008 due to an abnormality such as an illegal act. Therefore, it is set as the period during which it is monitored whether or not the game ball B is received at the second receiving port 2008. In the present embodiment, the game ball B is set to the “valid state” in a predetermined round (15th round) that allows the game balls B to be distributed to the second receiving port 2008, and the second receiving port 2008 has a game. When the ball B is accepted, the high probability state is controlled after the big hit gaming state. Further, although the “invalid state” is set for a predetermined round (1st to 14th rounds) in which the game balls B are not distributed to the second receiving port 2008, it may be set to “valid state”. Thus, even if it is set to “valid state” in all rounds in the big hit game state, the game ball B is not accepted in the second receiving port 2008 in the first to the 14th rounds. As in the case where the “invalid state” is set in the 14th round, it is important whether or not the game ball B is received in the second receiving port 2008 in the 15th round set in the “valid state”.

  In the big hit control process (step S2041), after performing the opening control of the big prize opening 2005, each set process of the high probability flag, the short time flag, and the short time counter is executed. The high probability flag is a flag indicating a high probability state. During the execution of the big hit gaming state based on the big hit (15R big hit A, 15R big hit B), it is possible to distribute the game balls B to the second receiving port 2008 in the first to fifteenth rounds of opening the big winning opening 2005. When the game ball B is received at the second receiving port 2008 during the effective state in the 15th round, the high probability flag is set since the control is performed to the high probability state (high probability short-time state) after the big hit gaming state. If the game ball B is not received in the second receiving port 2008 during the effective state in the 15th round, it is controlled to a high probability state (high probability short time state) after the big hit gaming state is finished. The high probability flag is not set. When the high probability flag is set, the first special symbol stop process shown in FIG. 138, which will be described later, when the next big hit or when the counter value of the hour / hour counter becomes “0” or The high probability flag is reset by a second special symbol stop process (not shown).

  The time-short flag is a flag indicating that the time-short state is in effect, and is used for big hits (15R big hit A, 15R big hit B) which are controlled to a short time state (high probability short time state, low probability short time state) after the big hit gaming state ends. Set when exiting based jackpot gaming state. The hour / short flag is the first special symbol stop process shown in FIG. 138, which will be described later, or the second special symbol stop (not shown) when the next big win or the counter value of the hour / hour counter reaches “0”. Reset by processing.

  The short-time counter is a counter that indicates the remaining number of times that the special symbol (the first special symbol and the second special symbol) is displayed as the number of times the short-time state continues. The short-time state (high probability) When the big hit gaming state based on the big hit (15R big hit A, 15R big hit B) is controlled to the short time state, low probability short time state, the number of times of the short time state is set, and the short time number counter is Each time the special symbol variation display is executed until the counter value reaches “0”, the countdown is performed. However, when the next big hit occurs before the counter value becomes “0”, FIG. The first special symbol stop process shown in FIG. 5 or the second special symbol stop process (not shown) is reset (the counter value is returned to “0”).

  If the big hit execution flag is not set, the value of the second special hold number counter indicating the number of second special random numbers stored in the second special symbol hold storage area is “0”. (Step S2036), the first special symbol process including the lottery processing relating to the display mode when the variable display of the first special symbol is stopped is executed (Step S2037), and the second special symbol is stored in the second special symbol holding storage area. On the condition that the value of the second special reserved number counter indicating the number of special random numbers is not “0” (step S2036), the second special symbol including the lottery process relating to the display mode when the variable display of the second special symbol is stopped. Process processing is executed (step S2038). Thus, in this example, when the value of the second special reserved number counter is not “0”, the variable display of the second special symbol is preferentially executed.

  FIG. 128 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the first start port passage process (step S2032).

  If it is determined in the process of step S2031 that the first start port sensor 2101 is in the on state and the game ball B has entered the first start port 2002, then FIG. As described above, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 first acquires the first special random number, the reach random number, the first symbol random number, and the variable random number from the random number counter as the process of step S2041.

  Next, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 obtains the counter value by the first special reserved number counter indicating the number of first special random numbers stored in the first special symbol reserved storage area from the main control built-in RAM, Based on the counter value, it is determined whether or not the first reserved storage number is “4” which is the maximum value (upper limit value) (step S2042). If it is determined in the process of step S2042 that the first reserved memory number is not the maximum value, the following steps S2043 to 3 are set to newly put the variable display control of the first special symbol on hold. The process of S2045 will be performed. That is, first, as the process of step S2043, the first special reservation number counter is incremented (added by 1). Next, as a process of step S2044, the first special symbol reserved storage area corresponding to the counter value by the first special reserved number counter in the storage area of the main control built-in RAM is used as the random number acquired in step S2041. To store.

  Further, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 displays the display result of the variable display of the first special symbol based on the first special random number, the reach random number, the first symbol random number, and the variable random number acquired in step S2041. Whether or not the game is a big hit, if the big win is reached, the type of the big hit, otherwise the reach effect is executed as the game effect executed by the effect display device 1600, or the type type of the game effect to be executed ( After performing the effect pre-determination process for determining the pre-determination information such as the variation pattern type) before starting the variable display according to the start winning (step S2045), the process ends.

  On the other hand, when it is determined in the process of step S2042 that the first reserved memory number is the maximum value, the variable display control of the first special symbol is not newly reserved. That is, by ending the process without executing the processes of steps S2043 to S2045, the first special symbol variable display control is not newly put on hold.

  Further, when the first reserved memory number changes based on the game ball B entering the first starting port 2002, the lighting state of the two LEDs of the first special reserved number indicator in the function display unit 1400 is changed to the first held state. While updating to correspond to the stored number, a command (first reserved number designation command 0 to 4) instructing the first reserved storage number is set and transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 in the storage process (step S20). It is supposed to be. The peripheral control MPU of the peripheral control board 1510 displays the first reserved memory number on the effect display device 1600 based on the reception of the first reserved number designation commands 0 to 4.

  FIG. 129 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the effect preliminary determination process (step S2045). When the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 starts the effect pre-determination process, the pre-determination table (not shown) and the random numbers acquired in step S2041, specifically, the first special random number, the first symbol random number, the reach random number, the fluctuation Whether or not it is a big hit by comparing with a random number, the type of jackpot if it is a big hit, or the reach effect as a game effect executed by the effect display device 1600 if it is not a big hit The mode type of the game effect is specified (step S2061).

  Then, the specified prior determination information (whether or not it is a big hit, the type of jackpot if it is a big hit, the reach effect as a game effect executed on the effect display device 1600 if it is not a big hit, or execution According to the type of game effect to be performed), the type of the acquired special random number (first special random number), and the number of reserved memories stored (the value of the reserved number counter) corresponding to the acquired special random number Set the prior judgment command. For example, in the effect pre-determination process related to the first special symbol executed in step S2045 of the first start port passage process, the specified pre-determination information and the first special random number are acquired, and the first reserved memory number (first 1 special reserved number counter value) and a first special symbol pre-determination command corresponding to the value (step S2062).

  Then, a pre-determination command is transmitted from the main control board 1310 to the peripheral control board 1510 in the special symbol command control process (step S16), and stored in correspondence with the first start port 2002 where the start winning has occurred. In addition to the number of reserved memory, whether or not the display result of the change display of the special symbol based on the start winning that has occurred is a big hit, if it is a big hit, the type of big hit, if not, the execution display device 1600 Peripheral control MPU mounted on the peripheral control board 1510 before the start of the variable display according to the start winning is performed as the game effect to be executed or the advance determination information such as the type of game effect to be executed is displayed. Can be grasped.

  When the peripheral control MPU mounted on the peripheral control board 1510 receives a preliminary determination command from the main control board 1310, the peripheral control MPU stores the preliminary determination information indicated by the received preliminary determination command. Specifically, the RAM of the peripheral control MPU is provided with a first reserved storage area for storing pre-determination information relating to the variable display of the first special symbol.

  The first reserved storage area has 1 to 4 storage areas corresponding to the number of reserved memories, and the peripheral control MPU stores the first determination information indicated by the received previous determination command as the first (first) storage area. Store sequentially from the area. When the advance determination command is received when the advance determination information is stored in the nth (n = 1 to 3) storage area, the advance determination information notified to the (n + 1) th (n = 1 to 3) storage area. And when the first variation pattern command for notifying the start of variation display of the first special symbol is received, the advance stored in the first storage area of the first reserved storage area in accordance with the received first variation pattern command Discard the determination information and move the prior determination information stored in the Nth (N = 2 to 4) storage area to the (N−1) th (N = 2 to 4) th storage area (to the reserved storage area) Shift the stored prior decision information). Thereby, the preliminary determination information of the first special symbol is stored so as to be able to specify the order in which the suspension of the start of the variable display has occurred, and is discarded in order from the earliest preliminary determination information.

  In this way, when the variable display control is put on hold, the big display expectation degree (pseudo-winning probability) of the variable display control is maintained even though the variable display control is maintained in an unexecuted state (pending state). )) In advance, for example, can be notified at a predetermined timing such as when a new output of the hold display or a shift display of the hold display according to the hold display. .

  FIG. 130 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the second start port passage process (step S2034).

  If it is determined in the process of step S2033 that the second start port sensor 2402 is in an on state and the game ball B has entered the second start port 2004, the process is shown in FIG. As described above, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 first acquires the second special random number, the reach random number, the second symbol random number, and the variable random number from the random number counter as the process of step S2051.

  Next, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 obtains the counter value by the second special reserved number counter from the main control built-in RAM, and based on the counter value, the second reserved memory number is the maximum value (upper limit value). ) Is “4” (step S2052). In the process of step S2052, if it is determined that the second reserved memory number is not the maximum value, the following steps S2053 to newly put the variable display control of the second special symbol on hold. The process of S2054 will be performed. That is, first, as the processing of step S2053, the second special reservation number counter is incremented (added by 1). Next, as the processing of step S2054, the second special symbol holding storage area corresponding to the counter value by the second special holding number counter in the storage area of the main control built-in RAM is used as the random number acquired in step S2051. To store.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S2052 that the second reserved memory number is the maximum value, the variable display control for the second special symbol is not newly reserved. That is, by ending the process without executing the processes of steps S2053 to S2054, the second special symbol variable display control is not newly put on hold.

  In addition, when the second reserved memory number changes based on the game ball B entering the second starting port 2004, the second on-hold state of the two LEDs of the second special reserved number indicator in the function display unit 1400 is changed. While updating to correspond to the stored number, a command (second held number designation command 0 to 1) indicating the second reserved memory number is set and transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 in the storage process (step S20). It is supposed to be. The peripheral control MPU of the peripheral control board 1510 displays the second reserved memory number on the effect display device 1600 based on the reception of the second reserved number designation commands 0 to 4.

  FIG. 131 is a flowchart showing the procedure for the first special symbol process (step S2037). The first special symbol process executed in step S2037 of the special symbol and special electric accessory control process and the second special symbol process executed in step S2038 of the special symbol and special electric accessory control process are the same. Since only the random numbers and tables used for determination are different, only the first special symbol process executed in step S2037 of the special symbol and special electric accessory control processing will be described here. In the first special symbol process, one of the following five process processes is selectively executed in accordance with the first special symbol process flag.

1. A first special random number stored in the RAM of the main control MPU is read, and a lottery process for the display mode when the variable control of the first special symbol is stopped is performed based on the read first special random number. Symbol normal processing (step S2080)
2. First special symbol stop symbol setting process (step S2081) in which, for example, a determination process of a mode at the time of variable control stop of the first special symbol is performed based on the result of the lottery process for the display mode when the variable control of the first special symbol is stopped )
3. The variation mode of the first special symbol displayed on the first special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 based on the variable random number, and the variation mode of the effect display executed on the effect display device 1600 corresponding to the special symbol. First variation pattern setting process in which a lottery process or the like is performed (step S2082)
4). First special symbol variation processing that waits until the variation display of the first special symbol on the first special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 is stopped (step S2083).
5). The first special symbol display mode of the function display unit 1400 displays the first special symbol variation control stop mode determined based on the result of the lottery process for the display mode when the first special symbol variable control stop mode. First special symbol stop process for stopping the variable display of the first special symbol as described above (step S2084)

  The first special symbol process flag is operated to indicate that the first special symbol normal process (step S2080) should be performed in the process of step S40 (see FIG. 112).

  FIG. 132 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the first special symbol normal process (step S2080).

  When the first special symbol process flag indicates that the first special symbol normal processing should be performed, as shown in FIG. 132, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 first performs step S2101. As the process, it is determined whether or not there is a variable display control of the first special symbol in the hold state based on the counter value by the first special hold number counter. As a result, if it is determined that there is a variable display control of the first special symbol that is in the hold state, it is stored in the first special symbol hold storage area of the RAM of the main control MPU as the process of step S2102. The random number stored in the earliest storage area among the random numbers (for example, the first special random number, the first symbol random number, the reach random number, and the variable random number) related to the display mode of the first special symbol being read is read from the same RAM. . Then, as the processing in steps S2103 and S2104, the first special reserved number counter is counted down and the first special symbol reserved storage area stored in the first special symbol reserved storage area of the RAM of the main control MPU is stored. A random number (first special random number, first symbol random number, reach random number, variable random number) related to the display mode when the variable symbol display is stopped is shifted in a first-in first-out (First-In First-Out) mode.

  Specifically, the first special symbol holding storage area has four storage areas 1 to 4 and stores the random numbers extracted in response to the occurrence of the start winning prize in order from the first (first) area. Then, if a starting prize occurs when random numbers are stored in the nth (n = 1 to 3) storage area, the extracted random numbers are stored in the n + 1th (n = 1 to 3) storage area. When the variable display start condition based on the random number stored in the storage area is satisfied, various random numbers stored in the first storage area are read out and stored in the Nth (N = 2 to 4) storage area. Various random numbers are moved to the (N−1) th (N = 2 to 4) th storage area. As a result, the order in which the suspension of the variable display control of the first special symbol occurs can be stored in an identifiable manner, and the suspension of the variable display control is released in order from the earliest suspension (the suspension that occurred first). become.

  After that, as a process of step S2105, a big hit determination process which is a lottery process for the big win is performed based on the read first special random number of the first special symbol. Thereafter, when the first special symbol process flag is updated so that the process is shifted to the first special symbol stop symbol setting process (step S2081) (step S2106), the process is terminated.

  FIG. 133 is a flowchart showing a procedure for the jackpot determination process (step S2105).

  If the current gaming state is a high probability state (high probability short-time state, high probability non-short-time state) (step S2111), the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 performs the high probability state shown in FIG. 134 (A). A jackpot determination table is selected (step S2112), and if the current gaming state is a low probability state (step S2111), the jackpot determination table at the low probability shown in FIG. 134A is selected (step S2113) and selected. The big hit determination table is compared with the first special random number read in step S2102 of the first special symbol normal process (step S2114).

  The jackpot determination table shown in FIG. 134 (A) is stored in the ROM of the main control MPU, and when the gaming state is low probability (normal state (low probability non-short state) and short state (low probability short state)). And a jackpot determination table at a high probability and used when the gaming state is a high probability (a high probability short time state). In the jackpot determination table at the low probability, 1/319 when the setting value is 1, 1/309 when the setting value is 2, 1/299 when the setting value is 3, and the setting value is 4 1/289, 1/279 when the set value is 5, and 1/269 when the set value is 6, match the jackpot judgment value indicating that the first special random number has been won with a jackpot probability of 1/269. The first special random numbers other than the first special random numbers are associated with each other so as to coincide with the loss determination value indicating that the first special random numbers are out of place. In the special symbol and special electric accessory control process, in the second special symbol process executed in step S2038, in the jackpot determination table at the low probability referred to for comparison with the second special random number, Similar to the low probability jackpot determination table referred to for comparison with the special random number, 1/319 when the set value is 1, 1/309 when the set value is 2, and 3 when the set value is 3 1/299, the second special random number was won with a big hit probability of 1/289 when the set value was 4, 1/279 when the set value was 5, and 1/269 when the set value was 6. The second special random numbers are associated with each other so that the second special random numbers other than that correspond to the loss determination values indicating that they are out of place.

  Further, in the jackpot determination table at the time of high probability, 1 / 31.9 when the set value is 1, 1 / 30.9 when the set value is 2, 1 / 29.9 when the set value is 3, First special random number (at low probability) with a jackpot probability of 1 / 28.9 when the set value is 4, 1 / 27.9 when the set value is 5, and 1 / 26.9 when the set value is 6. The first special random number that is the same as the first special random number set in the big-hit determination table) is matched with the big-hit determination value, and the other first special random numbers are matched with the loss determination value. Each special random number is associated. As described above, in this embodiment, in the high probability state (high probability short-time state), for each set value, the jackpot determination value indicating that the jackpot is won is a low probability (normal state (low probability non-short time state) And the time-short state (low-probability time-short state)). In the second special symbol process executed in step S2038 of the special symbol and special electric accessory control process, the high probability jackpot determination table referred to for comparison with the second special random number Similar to the high-probability jackpot determination table referred to for comparison with the special random number, 1 / 31.9 when the set value is 1, 1 / 30.9 when the set value is 2, and the set value 3 1 / 29.9 when the value is 4, 1 / 28.9 when the value is 4, 1 / 27.9 when the value is 5, and 1 / 26.9 when the value is 6 The second special random number (including the second special random number that is the same as the second special random number set in the jackpot determination table at the low probability) matches the jackpot determination value, and the other second special random numbers are lost. The second special random number is set to match the judgment value. It is associated.

  The main control MPU of the main control board 1310 compares the selected jackpot determination table with the first special random number read in step S2102 of the first special symbol normal process, and determines that it is a jackpot (step S2115). ), A big hit flag indicating that the change is won by the big win is set and the process is terminated (step S2116), and the first special read out in step S2102 of the selected big hit determination table and the first special symbol normal process As a result of the comparison with the random number, if it is determined that it is out of place, the reach determination table (not shown) is compared with the reach random number read in step S2102 (step S2117). As a result of comparing the reach determination table with the reach random number read in step S2102, if it is determined that the reach is shifted (step S2118), a reach flag indicating that the change becomes reach is set and processing is performed. The process ends (step S2119).

  FIG. 135 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the first special symbol stop symbol setting process (step S2081).

  When the first special symbol process flag indicates that the first special symbol stop symbol setting process should be performed, as shown in FIG. 135, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 first The result of the lottery process of the display mode when the variable display of the first special symbol is stopped, that is, the result of the jackpot determination process (step S2105) is determined. The lottery processing result is determined by determining whether or not the big hit flag is set (step S2121).

  If the big hit flag is set in step S2121, the main control MPU compares the first symbol random number read in step S2102 of the first special symbol normal process with the symbol determination table shown in FIG. 134 (B). (Step S2122) The type of jackpot is determined, and the mode at the time of variable control stop of the first special symbol corresponding to the determined jackpot type (stop symbol of the first special symbol) is determined (step S2123). On the other hand, if the big hit flag is not set in step S2121, it is determined to be an off symbol as a mode when the first special symbol variation is stopped (step S2124).

  As shown in FIG. 134 (B), the symbol determination table stores symbol random numbers (first symbol random number, second symbol random number) in association with each determination result (15R big hit A, 15R big hit B). ing. The main control MPU of the main control board 1310 determines the type of jackpot by specifying the determination result associated with the acquired symbol random number. In the symbol determination table of this example, the jackpot type determination probability determined based on the first symbol random number is set different from the jackpot type determination probability determined based on the second symbol random number. ing.

In particular,
1. Opening / closing control of the big winning opening 2005 according to the 15R big hit gaming state A, and the big winning opening 2005 is opened for a short time in the fifteenth round (opening in which the game ball B is difficult to enter. 5 seconds) and for a long time (opening that allows the game ball B to enter (easily), for example, 20 seconds), when the game ball B is received at the second receiving port 2008, When the game ball B is received at the second receiving port 2008 during the effective state in the 15th round, the special hit state after the end of the big hit gaming state is set. While the variable display of the symbols (the first special symbol and the second special symbol) is executed 100 times, the high probability short-time state is controlled, while the game ball B is placed in the second receiving port 2008 during the effective state in the 15th round. Unacceptable When the can, 15R jackpot A is controlled to a low probability time reduction mode until the variation display of the special symbol after the completion of the jackpot gaming state (first special symbol and the second special symbol) is executed 100 times
2. Opening and closing control of the big winning opening 2005 according to the 15R big hit gaming state B, and opening the big winning opening 2005 for a short time in the fifteenth round (opening in which the game ball B is difficult to enter. 5 seconds) is set to an effective state (a state in which the game ball B is received at the second receiving port 2008 and is controlled to a high probability state after the end of the big hit gaming state), and effective in the 15th round If the game ball B is received at the second receiving port 2008 during the state, the high display is performed until the change display of the special symbol (the first special symbol and the second special symbol) is executed 100 times after the big hit gaming state is finished. If the game ball B is not received in the second receiving port 2008 during the effective state in the 15th round while controlling the probability short-time state, a special symbol (the first special symbol and the first symbol after the jackpot gaming state is finished). Determining 15R jackpot B which variation display of the special symbols) is controlled to a low probability time reduction until it is executed 100 times, from among the two types of jackpot to any jackpot.

  In the 15R jackpot gaming state A in this example, as the operation schedule of the big prize opening 2005 in the 15th round, the big prize opening 2005 is opened for a short time (0.5 seconds), and the predetermined time (4.5) Seconds), the special winning opening 2005 is set to be opened for a long time (20 seconds). In addition, as the operation schedule of the sorting piece 2415 in the 15th round, when starting the short winning opening 2005 (0.5 seconds), the short-time operation (0.2 seconds) of the sorting piece 2415 is started. Then, when opening the long winning opening 2005 (20 seconds) for a long time, the long-time operation (10 seconds) of the sorting pieces 2415 is started, and the second receiving port 2008 is operated during the operating period of the sorting pieces 2415. The game ball B is set to be acceptable. In addition, as a state setting schedule of the second receiving port 2008 in the 15th round, a valid state (a state in which the game ball B is received at the second receiving port 2008 and is controlled to a high probability state after the big hit gaming state is finished) ) Is set.

  On the other hand, in the 15R big hit gaming state B of this example, the operation schedule of the big prize opening 2005 in the 15th round is set so that the big prize opening 2005 is opened for a short time (0.5 seconds). In addition, as the operation schedule of the sorting piece 2415 in the 15th round, when starting the short winning opening 2005 (0.5 seconds), the short-time operation (0.2 seconds) of the sorting piece 2415 is started. The game ball B is set to be received in the second receiving port 2008 during the operation period of the sorting piece 2415. In addition, as a state setting schedule of the second receiving port 2008 in the 15th round, a valid state (a state in which the game ball B is received at the second receiving port 2008 and is controlled to a high probability state after the big hit gaming state is finished) ) Is set.

  As described above, both the 15R jackpot gaming state A and the 15R jackpot gaming state B are valid in the 15th round (the game ball B is received at the second receiving port 2008, so that the high probability state is reached after the jackpot gaming state is finished. However, in the 15R big hit gaming state A, it is opened for a long time (20 seconds) when the second winning opening 2005 in the 15th round is opened. It is extremely easy for the game ball B to be accepted, and further, the sorting piece 2415 is operated for a long time (10 seconds) during a period in which the big winning opening 2005 is opened for a long time (20 seconds). It is extremely easy for the received game balls B to be distributed (accepted) to the second receiving port 2008. In this way, in the 15R big hit gaming state A, the probability that the game ball B will be received by the second receiving port 2008 in the 15th round set to the valid state is extremely high, so the high probability state is controlled after the big hit gaming state is finished. The probability of doing is also extremely high. On the other hand, in the 15R big hit gaming state B, the winning prize opening 2005 is only briefly opened (0.5 seconds) in the 15th round, so it is very difficult to accept the gaming ball B in the winning prize opening 2005. Since the sorting piece 2415 is only operated for a short time (0.2 seconds) during the period in which the grand prize opening 2005 is opened for a short time (0.5 seconds), the game ball B received by the big winning opening 2005 is the second. It is extremely difficult to be distributed (accepted) to the receiving port 2008. In this way, in the 15R big hit gaming state B, the probability that the game ball B will be received in the second receiving port 2008 in the 15th round set to the valid state is extremely low, so the high probability state is controlled after the big hit gaming state ends. The probability of doing is also very low.

  As an operation schedule of the sorting piece 2415, the sorting piece 2415 is operated for a short time (0.2 seconds), and after a predetermined time (4.8 seconds) has elapsed, the sorting piece 2415 is opened for a long time (10). ), And when the 15th round in 15R jackpot gaming state A and 15R jackpot gaming state B starts, The schedule is started. In this way, by making the operation schedule of the sorting piece 2415 a single operation schedule, the amount of data related to the operation schedule of the sorting piece 2415 is prevented from increasing as much as possible.

  In the 15R jackpot gaming state A and the 15R jackpot gaming state B of this example, the winning prize opening 2005 is opened for a long time (20 seconds) as the operation schedule of the winning prize opening 2005 in each of the first to fourteenth rounds. Is set to In addition, as an operation schedule of the sorting piece 2415 in each of the first to fourteenth rounds, the sorting piece 2415 is not operated, and the game ball B is placed in the first receiving port 2007 instead of the second receiving port 2008 during that period. Is set to be accepted. In addition, as the state setting schedule of the second receiving port 2008 in each of the 1st to 14th rounds, an invalid state (in principle, the game ball B is not accepted by the second receiving port 2008, and after the end of the big hit gaming state A state that is not controlled to a high probability state). In this way, in both the 15R big hit gaming state A and the 15R big hit gaming state B, the game balls B are distributed to the second receiving port 2008 when the big winning opening 2005 is opened as in the 15th round. A game of whether or not the game ball B is accepted is simply performed when the special winning opening 2005 is opened without performing a game of whether or not (accepted).

  In this example, a symbol determination table corresponding to the first special symbol and a symbol determination table corresponding to the second special symbol are provided. And in the symbol determination table corresponding to the second special symbol, the determination value allocation is set differently compared to the symbol determination table corresponding to the first special symbol, and the determination ratio of each jackpot is different. ing. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 134 (B), in the symbol determination table corresponding to the first special symbol, out of 15R jackpot A and 15R jackpot B, 15R jackpot A (15 rounds, which is relatively advantageous to the player) Distribution of 50 judgment values with respect to a big hit with a high probability that the game ball B will be received in the second receiving port 2008 during the effective state with the eye and a high probability of controlling to a high probability state after the big hit gaming state ends Is set, however, the 15R big hit B, which is relatively disadvantageous to the player (the probability that the game ball B will be accepted by the second receiving port 2008 during the valid state in the 15th round is low, and the big hit gaming state ends. 50 determination values are assigned to a jackpot with a low probability of being controlled to a high probability state later. On the other hand, in the symbol determination table corresponding to the second special symbol, among the 15R big hit A and 15R big hit B, 65 judgment value distributions are set for the 15R big hit A which is relatively advantageous to the player. On the other hand, the distribution of 35 judgment values to 15R big hit B which is relatively disadvantageous to the player is set. In this way, at the time of the big hit on the first special symbol side, either the 15R big hit A or the 15R big hit B, which is different in the player's advantage, is determined. Can be noticed. In addition, in the short time state controlled after the end of the big hit gaming state, a game on the second special symbol side (a game that allows the game ball B to enter the second starting port 2004) is performed. At the time of the big hit on the symbol side, the 15R big hit game A is determined with a higher probability than the big hit on the first special symbol side. it can. Therefore, since the game characteristics change between the first big hit and the consecutive time, the game does not become monotonous.

  Further, when the type of jackpot is determined, the stop symbol corresponding to the type of jackpot is determined as the mode when the first special symbol is stopped. Specifically, when the 15R big hit A is determined, the 15R big hit A symbol is determined as the big hit symbol, and when the 15R big hit B is determined, the 15R big hit B symbol is determined as the big hit symbol. In the second special symbol stop symbol setting process (not shown), when 15R jackpot A is determined, 15R jackpot A symbol is determined as the jackpot symbol.

  Then, after the determination process for the stop symbol is performed in this way, as a process of step S2125, these lottery results (indicating either the type of jackpot, losing reach or losing (specifying the stop symbol of the first special symbol) A determination result notification command corresponding to each lottery result is set so that it may be transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510. Thereafter, when the first special symbol process flag is updated so that the process shifts to the first variation pattern setting process (step S2082) as the process of step S2126, this process is terminated. The peripheral control MPU starts the left / middle / right decoration symbol variation display based on the received determination result notification command and variation pattern command, and stops and displays in the order of left ornament symbol → right ornament symbol → middle ornament symbol. Thus, the display control of the effect display device 1600 is performed.

  Specifically, the peripheral control MPU sets 15R out of the jackpots related to the first special symbol from the received determination result notification command as the mode (stop symbol) when the decoration symbol displayed on the effect display device 1600 is stopped. When the big hit A is specified, it is determined as the 15R big hit A symbol (combination of the same decorative symbols), and when the 15R big hit B is specified, it is decided as the 15R big hit B symbol (common with the 15R big hit A symbol). When the variation time specified from the pattern command has elapsed (at the end of the reach effect), the determined stop symbol is displayed on the effect display device 1600. As described above, when the decorative symbol displayed on the effect display device 1600 is fluctuated and stopped at either the 15R big hit A symbol or the 15R big hit B symbol, it can be determined that the decorative symbol is a big hit from the stop symbol of the decorative symbol. However, since a common symbol is used as the 15R big hit A symbol and the 15R big hit B symbol, either the 15R big hit A or the 15R big hit B cannot be discriminated.

  In addition, the peripheral control MPU, as an aspect (stop symbol) when the variation of the decorative symbol displayed on the effect display device 1600 is stopped, when the reach error is specified from the received determination result notification command, the symbol that is accompanied by the reach symbol. (The combination of decorative designs that are not the same. However, the left and right decorative designs are the same.) If the outlier is specified, it is a detachable design that does not involve reach (a combination of decorative designs that are not the same. Are determined to be non-identical), and when the variation time specified from the variation pattern command has elapsed (when the game effect ends), the determined stop symbol is displayed on the effect display device 1600.

  FIG. 136 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the first variation pattern setting process (step S2082).

  When the first special symbol process flag indicates that the first variation pattern setting process should be performed, as shown in FIG. 136, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 has the big hit flag set. If so (step S2141), the type of jackpot determined in step S2123 of the first special symbol stop symbol setting process and a variation pattern table (not shown) at the time of jackpot according to the current gaming state are selected (step If the reach flag is set (step S2143), a reach variation pattern table (not shown) corresponding to the current gaming state is selected (step S2144), and both the big hit flag and the reach flag are selected. If it is not set, that is, it will be a normal off-line (a non-reach effect is not executed) To selects the off time of the fluctuation pattern table (not shown) (step S 2145).

  Then, the variation pattern to be executed is determined by comparing the selected variation pattern table with the variation random number read in step S2102 of the first special symbol normal process (step S2146), and the determined variation pattern is started. The variation pattern command to be notified to the control board 1510 is set, and the variation display of the first special symbol displayed on the first special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 is started (step S2147). Further, the main control MPU sets a variation time set corresponding to the variation pattern determined to determine the variation pattern in the variation timer (step S2148). As a result, the effect control is performed by the first special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 and the effect display device 1600 for the variation time thus determined.

  A plurality of types of variation pattern tables are provided for each determination result based on special random numbers (first special random number, second special random number) and symbol random numbers (first symbol random number, second symbol random number). The variation patterns set in each variation pattern table include a plurality of variation time information indicating predetermined times (variation times) required for variation display control of the special symbols (first special symbol, second special symbol). Each variable random number is stored in association with each other. Thus, the main control MPU selects the selected variation pattern table from the plurality of types of variation pattern tables according to the determination result based on the special random number and the design random number, and the variation random number read in step S2102 of the first special symbol normal process. And the fluctuation time information associated with the read fluctuation random number is obtained from this table, thereby determining the fluctuation pattern of the special symbol (first special symbol, second special symbol). As a result, the lottery process for the variation pattern of the special symbols (first special symbol, second special symbol) is performed. The variation pattern table is stored in the ROM of the main control MPU.

  Further, the variation pattern table at the time of reach in this example is set so as to determine the type of reach effect to be executed by comparing a determination value indicating which reach effect is to be executed with a variable random number. . For example, the super reach effect of the reach effect is higher in the big hit expectation level than the normal reach effect, and when the super reach effect is executed, the player's expectation level for the big hit game state is increased.

  When the first special symbol variation display control is started, the first special symbol process flag is set so that the process proceeds to the first special symbol variation processing (step S2083) as the process of step S2149. At the time of updating, this process is terminated.

  In this example, in the fluctuation pattern table at the time of loss, the special symbol random time (the first special symbol and the second special symbol) is associated with the special symbol random time information set to about 1 second when the time is short. When the time is short, the variation pattern of the special symbol is set such that the variation time information of the special symbol set to about 12 seconds is associated with the special symbol random number (first special symbol, second special symbol). In other words, the variation pattern at the time of loss selected at the time reduction is compared with the variation pattern at the time of non-time reduction so that the time required for the variation display control of the special symbol is extremely short. Symbol variation time information is set.

  FIG. 137 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the first special symbol variation process (step S2083).

  When the first special symbol process flag indicates that the first special symbol variation process should be performed, as shown in FIG. 137, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 first performs step S2171. As the process, 1 is subtracted from the variation timer in which the variation time corresponding to the variation pattern determined in the lottery process (step S2082) for the variation pattern is set. If it is determined that the variation time timer is 0, that is, the lottery variation time has elapsed (step S2172), the process proceeds to step S2173. That is, in the process of step S2173, when the above-described first special symbol process flag is updated so that the process shifts to the first special symbol stop process (step S2084), this process is terminated.

  FIG. 138 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the first special symbol stop process (step S2084).

  When the first special symbol process flag indicates that the first special symbol stop process should be performed, as shown in FIG. 138, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 first performs step S2181. As the process, the display control for causing the first special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 to display the stop symbol determined in the first special symbol stop symbol setting process is performed, and the effect display device 1600 A stop display command for instructing the derivation display of the display result of the decorative symbol corresponding to the stop symbol of the first special symbol is set as a command to the peripheral control board 1510 (step S2182).

  Next, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 determines whether or not the time-shortage counter is set to “0” while the time-shortage flag is set and the time-short state continuation count is set. (Step S2183). If the counter value is not “0”, the time counter is counted down (step S2184), and then it is further determined whether or not the counter value of the simultaneous short counter is “0” (step S2185). . As a result, if the counter value is “0”, the time reduction flag is reset, and if the high probability flag is set, the high probability flag is reset (step S2186). If it is determined in the process of step S2183 that the counter value of the time reduction counter is “0”, or if it is determined in the process of step S2185 that the time reduction counter is not “0”. At that time, the process proceeds to step S2187.

  When the big hit flag is set (step S2187), a big hit start command indicating that the big hit gaming state is started is set (step S2189), and the big hit gaming state is started (a big hit round start command is set). The waiting time until the game is started (a period during which a display indicating that the big hit gaming state is started) is set in the interval timer (step S2190). Then, when the high probability flag is set, the high probability flag is reset. When the time reduction flag is set, the time reduction flag is reset. If it is not “0”, the counter value is reset (returned to “0”), and then a big hit running flag indicating that the big hit gaming state is being executed is set (step S2191), and the first special symbol process When the flag is updated so that the process is shifted to the first special symbol normal process which is the initial value (step S2192), this process is terminated.

  The jackpot start command is a command transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510, and is prepared individually according to the type of jackpot (15R jackpot A, 15R jackpot B). In step S2189, a jackpot start command (15R jackpot A start command, 15R jackpot B start command) corresponding to the type of jackpot is set. Thereby, the presentation according to the type of jackpot instructed by the jackpot start command is executed by the effect display device 1600, the lamp / LED, the speaker, and the like.

  FIG. 139 is a flowchart showing the procedure for the jackpot control process (step S2039).

  In step S2189, the waiting time until the big hit gaming state is started is set in the interval timer. However, in the process of step S2401, after the waiting time set in the interval timer has elapsed, FIG. As shown in the figure, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 controls opening / closing of the big prize opening 2005 and is in an effective state in the fifteenth round (a big hit gaming state by receiving the game ball B at the second receiving port 2008) And a winning ball opening / closing process (step S2402) set to a high probability state after the completion of the game, and the game ball B received by the big winning port 2005 in the fifteenth round to the second receiving port 2008 At the 15th round, the sorting piece 2415 is driven and controlled so that it can be sorted. Performing second receiving opening and closing process of monitoring the second receiving port 2008 whether the game ball B is received in the valid state (step S2403), in this order.

  FIG. 140 is a flowchart showing the procedure for the above-described special winning opening / closing process (step S2402).

  If it is determined in step S2411 that the big prize opening 2005 is in the open state, as shown in FIG. 140, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 has the big prize opening 2005. According to the operation schedule, when a predetermined time (for example, 20 seconds for long-time opening, 0.5 seconds for short-time opening) has elapsed from the open state of the special winning opening 2005 (step S2412), or When the game ball B has won the maximum number (for example, nine) of the winning balls 2005 in the opened state (step S2413), the opened large winning port 2005 is controlled to be closed (step S2414). Then, when it is determined that the current round is to be ended by controlling the big winning opening 2005 to be closed (step S2415), the type of jackpot and the current number of rounds are transmitted as commands to the peripheral control board 1510. A big hit round end command is set according to (step S2416), and the process proceeds to step S2428.

  If it is determined in step S2411 that the big prize opening 2005 is in the closed state, as shown in FIG. 140, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 has the big prize opening 2005. When it is determined to start a new round by controlling the large winning opening 2005 to the open state when it is time to open the large winning opening 2005 according to the operation schedule (step S2417). (Step S2418), a jackpot round start command corresponding to the type of jackpot and the new number of rounds is set as a command transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 (step S2419). If it is determined that it is time to set the valid state flag according to the state setting schedule of the second entrance 2008, that is, the 15th round of the 1st to 15th rounds that open the grand prize opening 2005. If it is the start time (step S2420), the valid state flag is set (step S2421). If the valid state flag is set at the start of the 15th round in step S2420, it is necessary to reset the valid state flag at the end of the 15th round. Then, the closed winning opening 2005 or the closed winning opening 2005 is controlled to be open (step S2422), and the process proceeds to step S2428. If it is determined that a new round is not started by controlling the winning prize opening 2005 to be in an open state (second open in the same round, etc.) (step S2418), or a valid state flag When it is determined that it is not the time to set the game (when it is not at the start of the 15th round) (step S2420), the closed winning prize opening 2005 is controlled to be open (step S2422), and step S2428 Migrate to Thus, the effect display device 1600, the lamp / LED, the speaker, and the like can execute an effect in accordance with the type of jackpot designated by the jackpot round start command and the jackpot round end command and the current number of rounds.

  It should be noted that the valid state flag is a state set to an valid state (a state in which the game ball B is received at the second receiving port 2008 and is controlled to a high probability state after the big hit gaming state is finished). It is a flag to show. In the fifteenth round of the first to fifteenth rounds that open the above-mentioned prize winning opening 2005, the game ball B received by the prize winning opening 2005 in the second receiving opening / closing process (step S2403) described later is used as the first receiving opening 2007. Alternatively, the game ball B can be received in the second receiving port 2008 by drivingly controlling the sorting piece 2415 to be distributed to any one of the second receiving port 2008, and is set to an effective state.

  If it is determined in the process of step S2428 that the game ball B has been received in the special winning opening 2005, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310, as shown in FIG. As a command to be sent to 1510, a winning prize entry command is set (step S2429), and this process is terminated. As a result, when the winning prize entry command is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 side, the presentation display device 1600, the lamp / LED, the speaker, etc. produce an effect corresponding to the acceptance of the game ball B to the winning prize opening 2005. Can be executed.

  If it is determined in step S2417 that it is not the timing for opening the special winning opening 2005, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310, as shown in FIG. When the number of rounds is completed by repeating the open and closed states of the winning opening 2005 (step S2423), the big hit execution flag is reset (step S2424). If it is determined that a second acceptance passage flag to be described later is set (step S2425), a high probability flag is set (step S2426), the time reduction flag is set and the counter value of the time reduction counter is set. When the initial value (for example, 100 times) is set as the number of times the time-short state is continued (step S2427), this process is terminated. If it is determined that the second entrance passage flag has not been set (step S2425), the high probability flag is not set, the time reduction flag is set, and the time reduction state is set to the counter value of the time reduction counter. When an initial value (for example, 100 times) is set as the number of continuations of (step S2427), this process ends. As described above, when it is determined that the second reception pass flag is set (the game ball B is received by the second reception 2008 during the effective state in the 15th round), the high probability flag is set. And the short time flag is set, and the high probability short time state is controlled, but the second entrance passage flag is not set (the game ball B is not accepted at the second entrance 2008 during the valid state in the 15th round) If it is determined that only the short time flag is set, the low probability short time state is controlled.

  FIG. 141 is a flowchart showing a procedure of the second receiving opening / closing process (step S2403).

  If it is determined in step S2431 that the second receiving port 2008 is in the open state (the game ball B is distributed to the second receiving port 2008 side by the sorting piece 2415), FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 follows the operation schedule of the sorting piece 2415 from the opened state of the second receiving port 2008 for a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds when opened for a long time). When 0.2 seconds at the time of short-time opening has elapsed (step S2432), or when the current round (15th round) is ended by controlling the special winning opening 2005 to be closed (step 1524). S2433), the second receiving port 2008 in the opened state is closed (the game ball B is swung to the first receiving port 2007 side by the sorting piece 2415). Controlling the divided state) (step S2434).

  If it is determined in step S2431 that the second receiving port 2008 is in the closed state, as shown in FIG. 141, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 When it is time to open the second receiving port 2008 according to the operation schedule 2415 (step S2435), the closed second receiving port 2008 is controlled to open (step S2436).

  Next, if it is determined in step S2437 that the game ball B has been received in the opened second receiving port 2008, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 is shown in FIG. Determines whether or not the game ball B has been received at the second receiving port 2008 during the effective state in the fifteenth round during the setting of the effective state flag (step S2438). If it is determined that the game ball B has been received at the second receiving port 2008 during the valid state at the 15th round (step S2438), the second acceptor is received during the valid state at the 15th round. When the second acceptance passage passing flag indicating that the game ball B has been received at the entrance 2008 is not set (step S2439), the second acceptance passage passing flag is set (step S2440), and the peripheral control board 1510 is set. When the second reception pass command is set as the command to be transmitted (step S2441), this process ends. As described above, unless the game ball B is received in the second receiving port 2008 during the effective state in the 15th round, the second receiving port passing flag is not set, and the high probability flag is set in step S2426. Is not set, the high probability state is not controlled after the big hit gaming state is finished. In addition, when the second reception pass command is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 side, an effect display device 1600, a lamp / LED, a speaker, etc. produce an effect corresponding to the reception of the game ball B to the second reception 2008. Can be executed.

  FIG. 142 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the normal symbol and normal electric accessory control process (step S116).

  Now, in the process of step S2801, if it is determined that the detection signal from the gate sensor 2506 is in the on state and the game ball B has passed to the gate unit 2003, as shown in FIG. In step S2802, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 first performs a gate section passing process such as obtaining a normal random number of the normal symbol from the random number counter and storing it in the normal symbol holding storage area of the RAM. Execute.

  Next, in the normal symbol and normal electric accessory control process, one of the following five process processes is selectively executed according to the normal symbol process flag.

1. A normal symbol normal process in which a normal random number stored in the RAM of the main control MPU is read out, and a lottery process for the display mode at the time of stopping the fluctuation control of the normal symbol is performed based on the read normal random number (step S2803).
2. Normal symbol variation time determination processing (step S2804) in which a lottery process or the like is performed on the variation pattern (variation time) of the ordinary symbol displayed on the ordinary symbol display of the function display unit 1400 based on the ordinary symbol variation random number.
3. Normal symbol variation process that waits until the variation display of the normal symbol on the normal symbol display of the function display unit 1400 is stopped (step S2805).
4). The normal symbol display mode of the function display unit 1400 displays the normal symbol variation control mode determined based on the result of the lottery process for the normal symbol variation control stop mode. Normal symbol stop process for stopping the variable display of symbols (step S2806)
5). When the result of the lottery process regarding the mode at the time of stopping the fluctuation control of the normal symbol is a mode suggesting “per symbol”, the second start port door 2411 rotates to play the game to the second start port 2004. Ordinary electric accessory release process for executing a process for controlling the acceptance of the ball B (step S2807)

  The normal symbol process flag is operated to indicate that the normal symbol normal process (step S2803) should be performed in the process of step S40 (see FIG. 112).

  FIG. 143 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the gate section passage processing (step S2802).

  If it is determined in the process of step S2801 that the detection signal from the gate sensor 2506 is on and it is determined that the game ball B has passed to the gate unit 2003, as shown in FIG. In step S2811, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 first acquires the normal random number and the normal variable random number from the random number counter.

  Next, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 obtains the counter value by the normal holding number counter from the RAM of the main control MPU, and based on this counter value, the holding number of normal symbols is the maximum value “4”. It is determined whether or not (step S2812). In the process of step S2812, if it is determined that the number of normal symbols held is not the maximum value, the following steps S2813 to S2814 are performed to newly put the normal symbol variable display control on hold. Processing will be performed. That is, first, as the processing of step S2813, the normal holding number counter is incremented (added by 1). Next, as the processing of step S2814, each random number acquired in step S2811 is stored in the normal symbol holding storage area corresponding to the counter value by the normal holding number counter in the storage area of the main control MPU RAM. .

  However, in the process of step S2812, if it is determined that the number of normal symbols held is the maximum value, the normal symbol variation display control is not newly held. That is, by not executing the processing of step S2813 to step S2814, the normal symbol variation display control is not newly put on hold.

  FIG. 144 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the normal symbol normal process (step S2803).

  When the normal symbol process flag indicates that the normal symbol normal process should be performed, as shown in FIG. 144, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 first performs the process of step S2821 as It is determined whether or not there is a variable display control of the normal symbol in the hold state based on the counter value by the normal hold number counter. As a result, if it is determined that there is the variable display control of the normal symbol in the hold state, the normal symbol stored in the normal symbol hold storage area of the RAM of the main control MPU is then processed as step S2822. The random number stored in the earliest storage area among the random numbers related to the symbol display mode (for example, ordinary random numbers, ordinary variable random numbers) is read from the RAM. Then, as the processing of steps S2823 and S2824, the normal reserved number counter is counted down, and when the variable symbol variable display stored in each storage area of the main control MPU RAM is stopped. The random number (ordinary random number, ordinary variable random number) related to the display mode is shifted in a first-in first-out (First-In First-Out) mode.

  Specifically, the normal symbol holding storage area has four storage areas 1 to 4, and the random numbers extracted in accordance with the passage of the game ball B to the gate unit 2003 are counted from the first (first) area. Store in order. When random numbers are stored in the nth (n = 1 to 3) storage area and the game ball B passes through the gate unit 2003, the random numbers extracted to the n + 1th (n = 1 to 3) storage area And when the variable display start condition based on the random number stored in the first storage area is satisfied, various random numbers stored in the first storage area are read and the Nth (N = 2 to 4) storage is read out. Various random numbers stored in the area are moved to the (N−1) th (N = 2 to 4) th storage area. Thereby, the order in which the suspension of the variable symbol display control of the normal symbol occurs can be stored in an identifiable manner, and the suspension of the variable symbol control can be released in order from the earliest suspension (the first occurrence). .

  Next, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 determines that the current game state is a short time state (low probability short time state, high probability short time state) (step S2826). ) Is selected (step S2826), and if the current gaming state is a non-time-short state (low probability non-time-short state) (step S2825), a non-time-short normal figure hit determination table (not shown) is selected (step S2825). In step S2827, the selected normal symbol determination table is compared with the normal random number read in step S2822 of the normal symbol normal process (step S2828).

  In addition, the normal figure hit determination table is stored in the ROM of the main control MPU, and the short hit normal figure hit determination table used when the gaming state is short time (low probability short time state, high probability short time state), and A non-time / short-time ordinary figure determination table used when the gaming state is non-time / short-time (low probability non-time / short-time state). Then, in the hourly common figure judgment table referred to for comparison with the ordinary random number, all the 251 kinds of ordinary random numbers coincide with the common figure judgment value indicating that the common figure is won. The ordinary random numbers are associated with each other so that they do not coincide with the usual deviation judgment value indicating that they are off. As described above, when the game ball B passes to the gate portion 2003 in the short time, it is surely won by the usual figure, and the second start opening door 2411 rotates to the second start opening 2004. The game ball B is controlled to be received.

  In addition, in the non-time-saving ordinary figure determination table referred to for comparison with the ordinary random number, all the 251 types of ordinary random numbers may coincide with the ordinary figure determination value indicating that the common figure is won. The normal random numbers are associated with each other so as to coincide with the usual deviation judgment value indicating that the usual figure is wrong. As described above, in the non-time saving state, even if the game ball B passes through the gate portion 2003, the second start opening door 2411 is rotated and the second start port door 2411 is rotated. There is no control that allows the game ball B to be received in the second starting port 2004.

  When the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 compares the selected universal symbol determination table with the normal random number read in step S2822 of the normal symbol normal process, and determines that it is based on the normal symbol (step S2829). ) After setting the flag per universal symbol indicating that the variation is won per symbol (step S2830), the normal symbol per symbol as the mode (normal symbol stop symbol) when the variation control of the normal symbol is stopped The symbol is determined (step S2831). On the other hand, if the result of comparison between the selected regular symbol determination table and the normal random number read in step S2822 of the normal symbol normal processing is that it is determined to be out of place, the variation of the normal symbol A non-standard symbol as a mode at the time of control stop (ordinary symbol stop symbol) is determined (step S2832). After that, when the above-described normal symbol process flag is updated so that the process shifts to the normal symbol variation time determination process (step S2804) (step S2833), this process is terminated.

  In this example, in the control in the short time state, the winning probability of the normal symbol is set to 251/251, the lottery result of the normal symbol is always a win, and the time required for the fluctuation display control of the normal symbol is extremely reduced. It is shortened to a short predetermined time (for example, 0.3 seconds). When the lottery result of the normal symbol is a win, the second start port 2004 is controlled with an open / close pattern that is closed for an extremely long predetermined time (for example, 5.5 seconds). . In other words, during the time-short state control, the probability that the lottery result of the normal symbol is successful is very high, the time required for the variable symbol variable display control is constant and short, and the open state of the second start port 2004 is It is much easier to win the game ball B in the second start port 2004 due to the long time of the game, and the game ball is more efficiently aimed at the second start port 2004 than the first start port 2002. B can be awarded. In the non-time-short state control, it is assumed that the winning probability of the normal symbol is set to 0/251, and the lottery result of the normal symbol is not always hit, and the second start port 2004 is aimed. Also, the game ball B cannot be won at the second starting port 2004.

  As described above, during the non-time-short state control, even if the second start port 2004 is aimed, the second start port 2004 cannot win the game ball B. The game ball B must be launched (so-called “left-handed”) aiming at the left side of the center accessory 2500 so that the game ball B wins. Further, in the game area 5a on the left side of the center accessory 2500, a plurality of obstacle nails N are planted on the front surface of the game panel 1100 in a predetermined gauge arrangement at an appropriate position, and the game ball B is the obstacle nail. By contacting N, various movements are imparted to the game ball B and flow down. For this reason, even if the game ball B is hit on the left side of the center accessory 2500 aiming at the first start opening 2002, it does not necessarily win the first start opening 2002 but wins the first start opening 2002. The game ball B that has not been discharged is discharged to the outside through an out port 1008 provided at the lower center in the left-right direction of the game area 5a.

  On the other hand, during the time-short state control, the game ball B can be won more efficiently by aiming at the second start port 2004 than the first start port 2002. In order for the ball B to win, the game ball B must be fired (so-called “right-handed”) aiming at the right side of the center bonus 2500. Further, due to the structure of the game board 5, when the second starting port 2004 is opened, if the game ball B is driven to the right side of the center accessory 2500 aiming at the second starting port 2004, the gate portion 2003 is The passed game ball B wins the second starting port 2004 with a very high probability. For this reason, during the time-short state control, the game ball B driven to the right side of the center accessory 2500 is hardly wasted (discharged to the outside from the out port 1008), and the non-time-short state control is performed. Compared to the first start opening 2002 in the middle, the game ball B wins the second start opening 2004 with extremely high efficiency.

  In addition, during the control of the short time state, in addition to the structure of the game board 5, when passing through the gate part 2003, the probability that the lottery result of the normal symbol is successful is very high, and the fluctuation display of the normal symbol is displayed. The time required for control is constant and short, and the time when the second start port 2004 is opened is long, etc., so that the game ball B can easily win the second start port 2004, and further to the second start port 2004. When the game ball B wins, the time required for the variable symbol display control of the special symbol is about 1 second, which is extremely short compared with the range of 10 to 120 seconds during the non-time-short state control. The special symbol variation display control (the suspension of the special symbol variation display control) can be digested. That is, when the time-short state is controlled after the big hit gaming state, the game ball B is driven to the right side of the center accessory 2500 with the aim of the second starting port 2004, so that the big hit is made again in a short time. It is possible to expect a large number of game balls B by controlling to the big hit game state. As described above, in the present embodiment, the number of game balls B paid out by winning the game ball B to the second start port 2004 is one, so that the game to the second start port 2004 is Even if the winning of the ball B frequently occurs, it is possible to reduce the burden on the game hall side while enhancing the interest of the player.

[12. Pachinko machine behavior at power-on]
In the present embodiment, as a function of the pachinko machine 1, a function for changing a setting value and a function for performing a confirmation display of the setting value are mounted. Specifically, the setting value setting can be changed by executing the setting change process in step S37 described above, and the setting value confirmation display can be performed by executing the setting value confirmation display process in step S28 described above. Allowing to be done. When performing such setting value change, in addition to operating the power switch 630a when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 and the setting key switch 1311a. When the confirmation display of the set value is performed, when the power of the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, in addition to operating the power switch 630a, the pressing operation part of the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 is provided. It is necessary to operate the setting key switch 1311a without operating. Note that, as described above, the RWM clear button 633z has both the function of the RAM clear switch, the function of the setting switching button, and the function of the error release switch.

  First, the behavior of the pachinko machine 1 when the pachinko machine 1 is powered on will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 145 (A) is a time chart showing the behavior of the pachinko machine 1 when the main control built-in RAM is initialized when the power of the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, and FIG. FIG. 145 (C) is a time chart showing the behavior of the pachinko machine 1 when the setting value is changed sometimes. FIG. 145 (C) shows the behavior of the pachinko machine 1 when the setting value is displayed when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on. It is a time chart which shows.

  As shown in FIG. 145, when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3, the main control MPU starts the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. That is, when the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at timing t3, the main control MPU sets the RAM access permission (step S10), and then performs a power failure clear process (step S12). In this power failure clear process, a wait timer process is performed to determine whether or not a power failure warning signal from the power failure monitoring circuit 1310e is input. As described above, in the wait timer process, after the power is turned on, the process waits until the voltage becomes larger than the power failure warning voltage and stabilizes. In this embodiment, the wait time is 200 milliseconds (ms). ) Is set.

  At timing tx after the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at timing t3, following step S12, the main control MPU operates the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z that operates as a function of the RAM clear switch. It is determined whether or not (step S14). When determining in step S14 that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated, the main control MPU sets a value 1 to the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG (step S16A). On the other hand, when determining in step S14 that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is not operated, the main control MPU sets the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG to 0 (step S16B). Then, following step S16A or step S16B, it is determined whether or not there is an operation of opening the body frame 4 and turning on the setting key (step S18). In the determination of step S18, the main control MPU determines that the main body frame 4 is open with respect to the outer frame 2 based on the detection signal from the main body frame opening switch 4b, and sets the key switch according to the setting key ON signal. When it is determined that the setting key 1311a is ON, the value 1 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG (step S20A). On the other hand, in the determination of step S18, the main control MPU determines that the main body frame 4 is not opened with respect to the outer frame 2 based on a detection signal from the main body frame opening switch 4b, and / or a signal for setting key ON. When it is determined that the setting key switch 1311a has not been turned ON, the value 0 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG (step S20B). That is, at timing tx, it is determined whether or not the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is operated, and whether or not the main body frame 4 is opened and the setting key is turned ON is determined. The determination result is stored as operation information in a general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU. Since the period from timing t3 to timing tx is extremely short, a person who presses the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z presses the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z while pachinko machine 1 needs to be turned on, and a person who turns on the setting key switch 1311a needs to turn on the pachinko machine 1 after turning on the setting key switch 1311a.

  After the operation information is stored at the timing tx, following step S20A or step S20B, the main control MPU performs a wait time standby process (step S22). In this wait time waiting process, the process waits until the system that performs the drawing control of the peripheral control board 1510 starts (boots). In this embodiment, 10 seconds (s) is set as a standby time (boot timer) until booting. The peripheral control board 1510 (peripheral control MPU) starts (boots) a system that performs drawing control of the peripheral control board 1510 before the timing ty when the main control MPU completes the wait time waiting process. The initialization process is completed, and various commands from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) can be received.

  At timing ty when the main control MPU completes the wait time waiting process, following step S22, the main control MPU determines whether or not a power failure warning signal has been input (step S24). When it is determined that there is no input, it is determined which combination the value of the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG and the value of the setting key ON flag CS-FLG are (steps S25 to S27). In step S25, when the main control MPU determines that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is the value 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is the value 1, the predetermined set value change permission condition is satisfied. If it is established, a setting change process (step S37) is performed. If the main control MPU determines in step S26 that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG has a value of 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG has a value of 0, the main control built-in RAM is initialized. (Step S38) is performed. In step S27, when the main control MPU determines that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG has a value of 0 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG has a value of 1, the main control MPU permits a preset set value display. When the condition is satisfied, the set value confirmation display process (step S28) is performed. That is, at timing tx, it is determined whether or not the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is operated, and whether or not the main body frame 4 is opened and the setting key is turned ON is determined. The determination result is stored as operation information in the general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU, but the operation is performed until the timing ty that is the time when the main control MPU completes the wait time waiting process thereafter. Information storage is to be maintained. At timing ty, based on the storage of the operation information, initialization of the main control built-in RAM (step S38), setting change processing (step S37), setting value confirmation display processing (step S28) is to be determined.

  As shown in FIG. 145 (A), when initializing the main control built-in RAM, the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z at the timing tx after the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at the timing t3. However, the setting key switch 1311a does not need to be turned on. As described above, when the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated at the timing tx, the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is set to 1 as the first operation information, and the setting key switch 1311a is set. Is not operated, the value 0 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG as the second operation information, and the operation information is stored in the general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU. At the timing ty, it is determined to initialize the main control built-in RAM (step S38) based on the storage of the operation information. From the timing ty, the initialization of the main control built-in RAM ( Step S38) is to be performed.

  When initializing the main control built-in RAM, it is necessary to operate the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z at the timing tx, but at the timing ty, the RWM clear button 633z is operated. It is not necessary that the pressing operation unit is operated. In other words, after the operation information is stored at the timing tx, the operation information stored at the timing tx is maintained until the timing ty arrives. Therefore, even before the timing ty arrives, the RWM clear is performed. It is possible to change from the state where the pressing operation portion of the button 633z is operated to the state where it is not operated.

  In this example, the value 1 is set to the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG as the first operation information at the timing tx, and the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is reset to the value 0 at the timing ty. However, the value of the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG only needs to be reset to 0 during the period from the timing ty until the initialization of the main control built-in RAM (step S38) is completed.

  As shown in FIG. 145 (B), when the setting value is changed, the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated at the timing tx after the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at the timing t3. The setting key switch 1311a needs to be turned on. As described above, when the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated at the timing tx, the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is set to 1 as the first operation information, and the setting key switch 1311a is set. Is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG as second operation information, and the operation information is stored in the general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU. Then, at the timing ty, it is determined to perform the setting change process (step S37) based on the storage of the operation information, and the setting change process (step S37) is performed from the timing ty. . In addition, after the setting change process (step S37) is started at the timing ty, when the setting key switch 1311a is changed from the ON operation state to the OFF operation state, the setting change process (step S37) is executed. It is supposed to be completed (timing t4).

  When changing the setting value, it is necessary that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated at the timing tx, and the setting key switch 1311a is operated to be turned on. However, at the timing ty, it is not necessary to operate the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z, and similarly, the setting key switch 1311a does not need to be turned ON. In other words, after the operation information is stored at the timing tx, the operation information stored at the timing tx is maintained until the timing ty arrives. Therefore, even before the timing ty arrives, the RWM clear is performed. It is possible to change from the state where the pressing operation portion of the button 633z is operated to the state where it is not operated. Similarly, the state where the setting key switch 1311a is turned on is changed to the state where it is turned off. It is possible to do. However, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned on before the timing ty is reached, the setting change process (step S37) is started at the timing ty. It is necessary to change from the state where the setting key switch 1311a is turned on again to the state where it is turned off, and further from the state where the setting key switch 1311a is turned on to the state where it is turned off. This is because the main control MPU determines whether or not there is a setting key OFF operation in the determination in step S222 of the setting change process. In this determination, the setting key switch 1311a is in an ON operation. This is because an OFF signal is input from the setting key switch 1311a when the operation is turned off.

  In this example, the value 1 is set to the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG as the first operation information at the timing tx, and the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is reset to the value 0 at the timing ty. However, the value of the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is reset to 0 from the timing ty until the initialization of the main control built-in RAM (step S38) is completed after the setting change process (step S37). Anything to do. In this example, the value 1 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG as the second operation information at the timing tx, and the setting key is set at the timing t4 when the setting change process (step S37) is completed. Although the ON flag CS-FLG is reset to 0, the value of the setting key ON flag CS-FLG has been initialized (step S38) after the setting change processing (step S37) from the timing ty. In the meantime, any value may be used as long as the value is reset to zero.

  As shown in FIG. 145 (C), when the confirmation display of the set value is performed, the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated at the timing tx after the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at the timing t3. On the other hand, the setting key switch 1311a needs to be turned on. As described above, when the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is not operated at the timing tx, the value 0 is set to the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG as the first operation information, and the setting key switch 1311a. Is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG as second operation information, and the operation information is stored in the general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU. Then, at the timing ty, it is decided to perform the set value confirmation display process (step S28) based on the storage of the operation information, and from the time ty, the set value confirmation display process (step S28) is performed. To do. In addition, after the setting value confirmation display process (step S28) is started at the timing ty, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned on, the setting value confirmation display process ( Step S28) is to be completed (timing t4).

  Note that when the setting value confirmation display is performed, the setting key switch 1311a needs to be turned on at the timing tx, but the setting key switch 1311a is turned on at the timing ty. There is no need. In other words, after the operation information is stored at the timing tx, the operation information stored at the timing tx is maintained until the timing ty arrives. Therefore, even before the timing ty arrives, the setting key It is possible to change from the state in which the switch 1311a is turned on to the state in which the switch 1311a is turned off. However, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned on before the timing ty, the setting value confirmation display process (step S28) is started at the timing ty. Later, it is necessary to change from the state in which the setting key switch 1311a is turned on again to the state in which the setting key switch 1311a is turned off, and further change from the state in which the setting key switch 1311a is turned on to the state in which it is turned off. This is because the main control MPU determines whether or not there is a setting key OFF operation in the determination in step S358 of the set value confirmation display process. In this determination, however, the setting key switch 1311a is turned ON. This is because an OFF signal is input from the setting key switch 1311a when the operation state is changed from the existing state to the OFF state.

  In this example, the value 1 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG as the second operation information at the timing tx, and at the timing t4 when the setting value confirmation display processing (step S28) is completed. Although the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is reset to the value 0, the value of the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is between timing ty and timing t4 when the setting value confirmation display process (step S28) is completed. Anything that resets to the value 0 is acceptable.

  In this example, as described in step S18 of the main control side power-on process, the setting key switch 1311a is turned on while the main body frame 4 is open with respect to the outer frame 2. As a condition, a value 1 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG as the second operation information, and the main body frame 4 is opened with respect to the outer frame 2 in FIGS. It is assumed that the situation continues. In this regard, the situation in which the main body frame 4 is never opened with respect to the outer frame 2 until the timing tx arrives, or the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 between the timing t3 and the timing tx. In the closed state, even if the setting key switch 1311a is turned on, the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is limited to not set the value 1 (set to the value 0) as the second operation information. Yes. This may be changed or set illegally when the main frame 4 is closed with respect to the outer frame 2 (such as when it is difficult for the manager of the game hall to notice) during business hours of the game hall. This is to prevent confirmation. On the other hand, in this example, the main body frame 4 is opened to the outer frame 2 as a condition for setting the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG to 1 in step S14 of the main control side power-on process. The situation is such that the main body frame 4 is never opened with respect to the outer frame 2 until the timing tx arrives, or the outer frame 2 is moved from the timing t3 to the timing tx. On the other hand, even when the main body frame 4 is closed, when it is determined that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated, the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is set to a value of 1. According to this, even if some abnormality or malfunction occurs in the main body frame opening switch 4b and it becomes impossible to recognize whether or not the main body frame 4 is open with respect to the outer frame 2, the RAM clearing is performed. It is possible to set the value 1 to the notification flag RCL-FLG and prevent the initialization of the main control built-in RAM (step S38) from being disabled. And even if some abnormality or malfunction occurs in the main body frame opening switch 4b, it is possible to minimize the occurrence of trouble in the game start itself.

  In the present embodiment, at the timing tx after the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at timing t3, the value of the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG as the first operation information and the set key ON flag as the second operation information The value of CS-FLG is set, and the operation information is stored in the general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU. After the operation information is stored at the timing tx, the operation information stored at the timing tx is maintained until the timing ty arrives. At the time of the timing ty, the operation information is stored. Based on this, it is determined whether initialization of the main control built-in RAM (step S38), setting change processing (step S37), or setting value confirmation display processing (step S28) is performed, and the determined processing. Like to do. That is, after the operation information is stored at the timing tx and before the timing ty arrives, the operation mode of the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z and the operation mode of the setting key switch 1311a are changed. Even in such a case, the operation information stored at the timing tx is maintained without being changed. Thus, after the operation information is stored at the timing tx after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at the timing t3, the hall manager mistakenly operates the operation mode of the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z and the setting key switch 1311a. Even if the operation mode is changed, the operation information stored at the timing tx is maintained so as not to be changed, so that there is no need to newly power on the pachinko machine 1 again. 1. Immediately execute the process intended by the hall manager after power-on (one of main control built-in RAM (step S38), setting change process (step S37), set value confirmation display process (step S28)) can do.

  Further, when the main control built-in RAM is initialized when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, in addition to operating the power switch 630a, the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z without operating the setting key switch 1311a. In order to change the setting value, in addition to operating the power switch 630a, it is necessary to operate the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z and the setting key switch 1311a. When performing the confirmation display, in addition to operating the power switch 630a, it is necessary to operate the setting key switch 1311a without operating the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z. At the timing tx after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3, the value of the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG as the first operation information and the set key ON flag CS-FLG as the second operation information. And the operation information is stored in the general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU, and the hall manager depends on which combination of the operation information is at the timing ty. Is executed (any of main control built-in RAM (step S38), setting change processing (step S37), and set value confirmation display processing (step S28)). For example, when the operation control unit is provided corresponding to the initialization of the main control built-in RAM, the setting value setting change, or the setting value confirmation display, in addition to the power switch 630a. It is necessary to provide three operation units, but by changing the processing executed after power-on of the pachinko machine 1 depending on the combination of operation information, the operation unit for pressing the RWM clear button 633z in addition to the power switch 630a In addition, it is only necessary to provide two operation units of the setting key switch 1311a, and the number of parts related to the operation unit can be saved.

  In this example, as described in step S18 of the main control side power-on process, the setting key switch 1311a is turned on while the main body frame 4 is open with respect to the outer frame 2. As a condition, a value 1 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG as the second operation information. As shown in FIGS. 145 (B) and 145 (C), for the period from the timing tx to the timing ty, The setting state of the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is held as the second operation information, and it does not matter whether the main body frame 4 is opened with respect to the outer frame 2. That is, during the period from the timing tx to the timing ty, the opening and closing of the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 can be repeated any number of times. On the other hand, after the value 1 is set in the setting key ON flag CS-FLG as the second operation information at the timing tx, the main body frame 4 moves relative to the outer frame 2 within the period until the timing ty arrives. When closed, the value of the setting key ON flag CS-FLG as the second operation information set at the timing tx is reset, and the setting change process (step S37) and the setting value confirmation display process are performed at the timing ty. The setting change process (step S37) is performed at the timing ty without performing (step S28) or resetting the value of the setting key ON flag CS-FLG as the second operation information set at the timing tx. Alternatively, it may not be determined that the set value confirmation display process (step S28) is performed. That is, even when the main body frame 4 is opened with respect to the outer frame 2 at the timing tx, the main body frame 4 is closed with respect to the outer frame 2 within the period until the timing ty arrives. May be restricted so that setting value setting change and setting value confirmation display cannot be performed. According to this, as described above, the setting is illegally changed when the main body frame 4 is closed with respect to the outer frame 2 during business hours of the game hall (when the game hall manager is difficult to notice). Or illegally confirming the settings.

  Further, in this example, the RAM clear notification flag is set as the first operation information on the condition that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is temporarily operated in step S14 of the main control side power-on process. Although the value 1 is set in RCL-FLG, the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated for a predetermined time (for example, 2 to 3 seconds), that is, the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is pressed and held. It is good also as a condition. Similarly, in step S18 of the main-control-side power-on process, the setting key ON flag CS-FLG has a value of 1 as the second operation information on condition that the setting key switch 1311a is turned ON even temporarily. However, the setting key switch 1311a may be turned on for a predetermined time (for example, 2 to 3 seconds). As a result, even when the hall manager accidentally touches the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z or the setting key switch 1311a when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, processing that is not intended by the hall manager is performed. It can be prevented from being executed.

  In addition, as will be described in detail later, during the period from timing t3 to timing t4, it is limited not to perform fraud monitoring using the magnetic sensor 2470 or fraud monitoring using the vibration sensor 3005. . That is, during the period from the timing t3 to the timing ty, the hall manager changes from the state where the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated to the state where it is not operated, or the setting key switch 1311a is turned on. Although it is possible to change the state from being in an OFF operation state, it is limited not to execute fraud monitoring using the magnetic sensor 2470 or fraud monitoring using the vibration sensor 3005. . As a result, even when the hall manager has something that can generate magnetism or adds vibration when operating the pressing operation part of the RWM clear button 633z or the setting key switch 1311a, it is detected as an illegal act. Can be prevented, and inhibition of regular work can be suppressed.

[12-1. Modification of pachinko machine behavior at power-on]
In the above-described embodiment, when the main control built-in RAM is initialized, the setting value is changed, or the setting value is confirmed and displayed, the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 is pressed. The timing for determining whether or not the unit is operated is the same as the timing for determining whether or not the body frame 4 is opened and the setting key is turned on, but the body frame 4 is opened and set. About the timing which determines whether there exists key ON operation, you may make it differ from the timing which determines whether the press operation part of RWM clear button 633z is operated. A modified example of the behavior of the pachinko machine 1 when the power of the pachinko machine 1 is turned on will be described with reference to FIGS. 146 and 147. FIG. 146 is a flowchart illustrating a modification of the main control side power-on process. FIG. 147 (A) is a time chart showing a modified example of the behavior of the pachinko machine 1 when the main control built-in RAM is initialized when the power of the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, and FIG. FIG. 147 (C) is a time chart showing a modified example of the behavior of the pachinko machine 1 when the set value is changed when the machine 1 is turned on. FIG. 147 (C) shows a confirmation display of the set value when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on. It is a time chart which shows the modification of the behavior of the pachinko machine 1 in the case of performing. Note that, as described above, the RWM clear button 633z has both the function of the RAM clear switch, the function of the setting switching button, and the function of the error release switch.

  As shown in FIG. 147, when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3, the main control MPU starts the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. That is, when the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at timing t3, the main control MPU sets the RAM access permission (step S10), and then performs a power failure clear process (step S12). In this power failure clear process, a wait timer process is performed to determine whether or not a power failure warning signal from the power failure monitoring circuit 1310e is input. As described above, in the wait timer process, after the power is turned on, the process waits until the voltage becomes larger than the power failure warning voltage and stabilizes. In this embodiment, the wait time is 200 milliseconds (ms). ) Is set.

  At the timing tx after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at the timing t3, the main control MPU determines whether or not the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is being operated (step S12) (step S12). S14). When determining in step S14 that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated, the main control MPU sets a value 1 to the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG (step S16A). On the other hand, when determining in step S14 that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is not operated, the main control MPU sets the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG to 0 (step S16B). That is, at timing tx, it is determined whether or not the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated, and the determination result is stored in the general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU as the first operation information. ing. Since the period from timing t3 to timing tx is extremely short, a person who presses the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z presses the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z while pachinko machine 1 needs to be turned on.

  After the first operation information is stored at the timing tx, the main control MPU performs a wait time standby process following step S16A or step S16B (step S22). In this wait time waiting process, the process waits until the system that performs the drawing control of the peripheral control board 1510 starts (boots). In this embodiment, 10 seconds (s) is set as a standby time (boot timer) until booting. The peripheral control board 1510 (peripheral control MPU) starts (boots) a system that performs drawing control of the peripheral control board 1510 before the timing ty when the main control MPU completes the wait time waiting process. The initialization process is completed, and various commands from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) can be received.

  At timing ty1 when the main control MPU completes the wait time waiting process, following step S22, the main control MPU determines whether or not a power failure warning signal has been input (step S24). When it is determined that there is no input, it is determined whether or not there is an operation of opening the body frame 4 and turning on the setting key (step S18). In the determination of step S18, the main control MPU determines that the main body frame 4 is open with respect to the outer frame 2 based on the detection signal from the main body frame opening switch 4b, and sets the key switch according to the setting key ON signal. When it is determined that the setting key 1311a is ON, the value 1 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG (step S20A). On the other hand, in the determination of step S18, the main control MPU determines that the main body frame 4 is not opened with respect to the outer frame 2 based on a detection signal from the main body frame opening switch 4b, and / or a signal for setting key ON. When it is determined that the setting key switch 1311a has not been turned ON, the value 0 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG (step S20B). That is, at timing ty1, it is determined whether or not the body frame 4 is opened and the setting key is turned ON, and the determination result is stored in the general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU as second operation information. is doing. As described above, in the modified example, the first operation information is stored at the timing tx before the main control MPU starts the wait time waiting process, whereas the main control MPU completes the wait time waiting process at the timing ty1. The second operation information is stored. Note that the setting key switch 1311a is set as the period from the timing t3 to the timing ty1 because at least 10 seconds (s), which is a waiting time (boot timer) until booting in the wait time waiting process (step S22), is set. May turn on the setting key switch 1311a before turning on the power of the pachinko machine 1 at the timing t3, but after turning on the power of the pachinko machine 1 at the timing t3, The setting key switch 1311a may be turned ON until the timing ty1 when the control MPU completes the wait time waiting process comes.

  At timing ty2 after the second operation information is stored at timing ty1, following step S20A or step S20B, the main control MPU determines the value of the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG and the setting key ON flag CS. -It is determined which combination the values of FLG are (steps S25 to S27). In step S25, when the main control MPU determines that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is the value 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is the value 1, the predetermined set value change permission condition is satisfied. If it is established, a setting change process (step S37) is performed. If the main control MPU determines in step S26 that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG has a value of 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG has a value of 0, the main control built-in RAM is initialized. (Step S38) is performed. In step S27, when the main control MPU determines that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG has a value of 0 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG has a value of 1, the main control MPU permits a preset set value display. When the condition is satisfied, the set value confirmation display process (step S28) is performed. That is, at timing tx, it is determined whether or not the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated, and the determination result is stored in the general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU as first operation information. However, the storage of the first operation information is maintained until the timing ty2 when the main control MPU completes the wait time waiting process thereafter. On the other hand, at timing ty1, it is determined whether or not the body frame 4 is opened and the setting key is turned ON, and the determination result is stored as second operation information in a general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU. However, the storage of the second operation information is maintained until the timing ty2 when the main control MPU completes the wait time waiting process thereafter. At timing ty2, based on the storage of the operation information, initialization of the main control built-in RAM (step S38), setting change processing (step S37), setting value confirmation display processing ( Step S28) is to be determined.

  As shown in FIG. 147 (A), when initializing the main control built-in RAM, at the timing tx after the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at timing t3, the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z. Must be operated. As described above, when the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated at the timing tx, the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is set to 1 as the first operation information, and the first operation is performed. Information is stored in a general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU. On the other hand, when the main control built-in RAM is initialized, it is necessary that the setting key switch 1311a is not turned on at the timing ty1 when the main control MPU completes the wait time waiting process after the timing tx. As described above, when the setting key switch 1311a is not turned ON at the timing ty1, the value 0 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG as the second operation information, and the second operation information is set as the main operation information. Store in the general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the control MPU. Then, at timing ty2, it is determined to initialize the main control built-in RAM (step S38) based on the storage of the operation information. From timing ty2, initialization of the main control built-in RAM ( Step S38) is to be performed.

  When initializing the main control built-in RAM, it is necessary to operate the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z at the timing tx, but at the timing ty1 or timing ty2, the RWM clear It is not necessary to operate the pressing operation portion of the button 633z. In other words, after the first operation information is stored at the timing tx, the first operation information stored at the timing tx is maintained until the timing ty2 arrives. Therefore, before the timing ty2 arrives. In addition, it is possible to change from the state in which the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated to the state in which it is not operated.

  When the main control built-in RAM is to be initialized, the setting key switch 1311a does not need to be turned on at the timing ty1, but at the timing tx or the timing ty2, the setting key switch 1311a is not turned on. The ON operation may be performed. That is, after the second operation information is stored at the timing ty1, the second operation information stored at the timing ty1 is maintained until the timing ty2 arrives. However, at the timing ty1, the second operation information is maintained. Since the information is stored, during the period from the timing tx to the timing ty1, the setting key switch 1311a can be freely changed between the ON operation state and the OFF operation state. Yes.

  In this example, the value 1 is set to the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG as the first operation information at the timing tx, and the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is reset to the value 0 at the timing ty2. However, the value of the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG only needs to be reset to 0 during the period from the timing ty2 until the initialization of the main control built-in RAM (step S38) is completed.

  As shown in FIG. 147 (B), when the setting value is changed, the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated at the timing tx after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at the timing t3. Need to be. As described above, when the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated at the timing tx, the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is set to 1 as the first operation information, and the first operation is performed. Information is stored in a general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU. On the other hand, when the setting value is changed, the setting key switch 1311a needs to be turned on at the timing ty1 when the main control MPU completes the wait time waiting process after the timing tx. As described above, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned on at the timing ty1, the value 1 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG as the second operation information, and the second operation information is set as the main operation information. Store in the general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the control MPU. Then, at the time of timing ty2, it is determined to perform the setting change process (step S37) based on the storage of the operation information, and the setting change process (step S37) is performed from the time of timing ty2. . In addition, after the setting change process (step S37) is started at timing ty2, when the setting key switch 1311a is changed from the ON operation state to the OFF operation state, the setting change process (step S37) is executed. It is supposed to be completed (timing t4).

  When changing the setting value, it is necessary to operate the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z at the timing tx. However, at the timing ty1 or the timing ty2, the RWM clear button 633z is operated. There is no need to operate the pressing operation section. In other words, after the first operation information is stored at the timing tx, the first operation information stored at the timing tx is maintained until the timing ty2 arrives. Therefore, before the timing ty2 arrives. In addition, it is possible to change from the state in which the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated to the state in which it is not operated.

  When changing the setting value, the setting key switch 1311a needs to be turned on at timing ty1, but the setting key switch 1311a is turned on at timing tx or timing ty2. It does not have to be. That is, after the second operation information is stored at the timing ty1, the second operation information stored at the timing ty1 is maintained until the timing ty2 arrives. However, at the timing ty1, the second operation information is maintained. Since the information is stored, during the period from the timing tx to the timing ty1, the setting key switch 1311a can be freely changed between the ON operation state and the OFF operation state. Yes.

  In this example, the value 1 is set to the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG as the first operation information at the timing tx, and the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is reset to the value 0 at the timing ty2. However, the value of the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG only needs to be reset to 0 during the period from the timing ty2 until the initialization of the main control built-in RAM (step S38) is completed. In this example, the value 1 is set in the setting key ON flag CS-FLG as the second operation information at the timing ty1, and the setting key is set at the timing t4 when the setting change process (step S37) is completed. Although the ON flag CS-FLG is reset to 0, the value of the setting key ON flag CS-FLG has been initialized (step S38) after the setting change processing (step S37) from timing ty2. In the meantime, any value may be used as long as the value is reset to zero.

  As shown in FIG. 147 (C), when the confirmation display of the set value is performed, the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated at the timing tx after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at the timing t3. Need not be. As described above, when the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is not operated at the timing tx, the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is set to 0 as the first operation information, and the first operation is performed. Information is stored in a general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU. On the other hand, when the confirmation display of the set value is performed, the setting key switch 1311a needs to be turned ON at the timing ty1 when the main control MPU completes the wait time waiting process after the timing tx. As described above, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned on at the timing ty1, the value 1 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG as the second operation information, and the second operation information is set as the main operation information. Store in the general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the control MPU. Then, at the time of timing ty2, it is determined to perform the set value confirmation display processing (step S28) based on the storage of the operation information, and from the time of timing ty2, the setting value confirmation display processing (step S28) is performed. To do. In addition, after the setting value confirmation display process (step S28) is started at timing ty2, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned off, the setting value confirmation display process ( Step S28) is to be completed (timing t4).

  Note that when the setting value confirmation display is performed, the setting key switch 1311a needs to be turned on at timing ty1, but the setting key switch 1311a is turned on at timing tx or timing ty2. It does not have to be. That is, after the second operation information is stored at the timing ty1, the second operation information stored at the timing ty1 is maintained until the timing ty2 arrives. However, at the timing ty1, the second operation information is maintained. Since the information is stored, during the period from the timing tx to the timing ty1, the setting key switch 1311a can be freely changed between the ON operation state and the OFF operation state. Yes.

  In this example, the value 1 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG as the second operation information at the timing ty1, and the setting value confirmation display process (step S28) is completed at the timing t4. Although the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is reset to the value 0, the value of the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is a value 0 between the timing ty2 and the time when the setting value confirmation display process (step S28) is completed. It only needs to be reset to.

  In this example, as described in step S18 of the main control side power-on process, the setting key switch 1311a is turned on while the main body frame 4 is open with respect to the outer frame 2. As a condition, a value 1 is set to the setting key ON flag CS-FLG as the second operation information, and the main body frame 4 is opened with respect to the outer frame 2 in FIGS. It is assumed that the situation continues. In this regard, the situation in which the main body frame 4 has never been opened with respect to the outer frame 2 before the timing ty1 arrives, or the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 between the timing t3 and the timing ty1. In the closed state, even if the setting key switch 1311a is turned on, the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is limited to not set the value 1 (set to the value 0) as the second operation information. Yes. This may be changed or set illegally when the main frame 4 is closed with respect to the outer frame 2 (such as when it is difficult for the manager of the game hall to notice) during business hours of the game hall. This is to prevent confirmation. On the other hand, in this example, the main body frame 4 is opened to the outer frame 2 as a condition for setting the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG to 1 in step S14 of the main control side power-on process. The situation is such that the main body frame 4 is never opened with respect to the outer frame 2 until the timing tx arrives, or the outer frame 2 is moved from the timing t3 to the timing tx. On the other hand, even when the main body frame 4 is closed, when it is determined that the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is operated, the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is set to a value of 1. According to this, even if some abnormality or malfunction occurs in the main body frame opening switch 4b and it becomes impossible to recognize whether or not the main body frame 4 is open with respect to the outer frame 2, the RAM clearing is performed. It is possible to set the value 1 to the notification flag RCL-FLG and prevent the initialization of the main control built-in RAM (step S38) from being disabled. And even if some abnormality or malfunction occurs in the main body frame opening switch 4b, it is possible to minimize the occurrence of trouble in the game start itself.

  In the present embodiment, the value of the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is set as the first operation information at the timing tx after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at the timing t3, and the first operation information is controlled by the main control. The first operation information stored in the MPU general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) and stored at the timing tx is maintained until the timing ty2 arrives. Further, at the timing ty1 when the main control MPU completes the wait time waiting process after the timing tx, the value of the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is set as the second operation information, and the second operation information is set as the main control MPU. The second operation information stored in the general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) and stored at the timing ty1 is maintained until the timing ty2 arrives. At timing ty2, based on the storage of the operation information, initialization of the main control built-in RAM (step S38), setting change processing (step S37), setting value confirmation display processing ( Whether to perform step S28) is determined, and the determined processing is performed. In other words, after the first operation information is stored at the timing tx and until the timing ty1 when the second operation information is stored, the setting key switch 1311a is in the ON operation state and the OFF operation is performed. It is possible to change freely. At time ty1, the second operation information is stored in the general-purpose storage element (general-purpose register) of the main control MPU so as to reflect the operation state of the setting key switch 1311a changed in the period from the timing tx to the timing ty1. At the timing ty2 after that, whether to initialize the main control built-in RAM (step S38), to perform setting change processing (step S37), or to confirm the set value based on the storage of the operation information Whether to perform the display process (step S28) is determined, and the determined process is performed. As a result, when the setting value setting change or the setting value confirmation display is performed, the hall manager erroneously turns on the setting key switch 1311a at the timing tx after the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at the timing t3. Even if the user forgets to perform the operation, by changing to the state in which the setting key switch 1311a is ON-operated until the timing ty1 at which the second operation information is stored, the pachinko machine 1 is newly set. There is no need to turn the power on again, and the processing that the hall manager intends after powering on the pachinko machine 1 (initialization of the main control built-in RAM (step S38), setting change processing (step S37), setting value confirmation display processing (Any step S28) can be executed promptly. Further, when initializing the main control built-in RAM, even if the hall manager erroneously turns on the setting key switch 1311a at the timing tx after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at the timing t3, By changing the setting key switch 1311a to the state in which the second operation information is stored until the timing ty1 arrives, the setting value setting need not be changed again, and the pachinko machine 1 After the power is turned on, the processing intended by the hall manager (initialization of the main control built-in RAM (step S38), setting change processing (step S37), or setting value confirmation display processing (step S28)) is promptly executed. be able to.

  As described above, after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at the timing t3, the period until the timing ty1 at which the second operation information is stored is reached, after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at the timing t3. The first operation information is configured to be longer than the period until the timing tx at which the first operation information is stored. Thereby, when the power of the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, it is not necessary to operate the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z and the setting key switch 1311a at the same time, and after operating the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z, It is possible to perform the ON operation, and the operation of the hall manager with respect to the plurality of operation units can be facilitated.

  When the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, when the main control built-in RAM is initialized or the setting value is changed, it is necessary to operate the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z. The timing for operating the pressing operation unit of 633z is set to the timing tx immediately after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, and not to the timing ty1 at which the main control MPU completes the wait time waiting process. This is composed of a push-down switch whose operation state is not maintained for the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z, and after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3, until the timing ty1 arrives. Even if an attempt is made to continue to operate the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z, it may be unclear whether or not the timing ty1 has arrived, so the hall manager operates the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z. There is a possibility of stopping. For this reason, about the timing which operates the press operation part of RWM clear button 633z, it is set as the time of the timing tx immediately after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, and the press operation part of RWM clear button 633z is operated over a long period of time. There is no need to continue, and initialization of the main control built-in RAM (step S38) and setting change processing (step S37) can be reliably executed as intended by the hall manager.

  Also, as mentioned above. The peripheral control board 1510 (peripheral control MPU) starts (boots) a system that performs drawing control of the peripheral control board 1510 before the timing ty when the main control MPU completes the wait time waiting process. The initialization process is completed, and various commands from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) can be received. At the time when the initialization processing of the peripheral control board 1510 is completed, a command for specifying that it is waiting to determine whether or not there is a setting key ON operation at timing ty1 is issued to the main control board 1310 (main control MPU). ) To complete the initialization process of the peripheral control board 1510 and until the timing ty1 arrives, the setting key switch 1311a is output depending on the output of the effect display device 1600, the lamp, and the speaker. The setting key operable notification is executed to notify that the state can be changed to the state in which the ON operation is performed. This setting key operation possible notification includes a voice that repeats “setting key operation is possible”, a message “setting key operation is possible!”, And setting value setting key switch 1311a of 1-6 in the selection operation process is ON. Lamp light emission is executed in a color corresponding to whether or not it is being operated.

  In addition, as will be described in detail later, during the period from timing t3 to timing t4, it is limited not to perform fraud monitoring using the magnetic sensor 2470 or fraud monitoring using the vibration sensor 3005. . That is, during the period from timing t3 to timing ty2, the hall manager changes from a state where the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is operated to a state where it is not operated, or the setting key switch 1311a is turned on. It is possible to change from a state where the magnetic sensor 2470 is turned off to a state where it is turned off, or from a state where it is turned off to a state where it is turned on. It is restricted not to execute fraud monitoring using. As a result, even when the hall manager has something that can generate magnetism or adds vibration when operating the pressing operation part of the RWM clear button 633z or the setting key switch 1311a, it is detected as an illegal act. Can be prevented, and inhibition of regular work can be suppressed.

[13. Behavior of pachinko machine in change permission state and confirmation display state]
Next, the behavior of the pachinko machine 1 in a state where setting value change permission and setting value confirmation display are performed will be described with reference to FIGS. 148 to 150. FIG. 148 is a time chart showing the behavior of the pachinko machine 1 during the setting value setting change, and FIGS. 149 and 150 are time charts showing the behavior of the pachinko machine 1 during the setting value confirmation display. In the state where the setting change of the setting value and the confirmation display of the setting value are performed, the behavior of the pachinko machine 1 is different from the state where the setting change of the setting value and the confirmation display of the setting value are not performed. It has become a thing. Further, the behavior of the pachinko machine 1 during the confirmation display of the set value is substantially the same as the behavior of the pachinko machine 1 during the setting change of the set value. However, when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, the RWM clear button 633z is used. Since the pressing operation unit is not operated, even after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, it is different in that various information at the time of turning off the power is held.

  As shown in FIG. 148, when the setting value is changed, first, it is confirmed whether or not the pachinko machine 1 is in a power-on state, and the pachinko machine 1 is in a power-on state. In some cases, it is necessary to shut off the power of the pachinko machine 1 (timing t0). If the main frame 4 is closed with respect to the outer frame 2 when the pachinko machine 1 is not turned on (the power of the pachinko machine 1 is cut off), the outer frame 2 to open the main body frame 4 (timing t1), and then insert a metal setting key into the insertion port 1311aba of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a, and turn the setting key cylinder clockwise. Then, the setting key switch 1311a is turned ON by turning it 60 degrees and turning it ON (timing t2). Then, the pachinko machine 1 is turned on by operating the power switch 630a while operating the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 that operates as a function of the RAM clear switch (timing t3). The value can be changed (change-permitted state). In such a change-permitted state, the set value (set values 1 to 6) can be changed each time the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 that operates as a function of the setting switching button is pressed. After that, the setting key cylinder is rotated 60 degrees counterclockwise so as to return to the original position from the rotation position of the setting key cylinder in which the setting key switch 1311a is turned ON. The setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF (timing t4). That is, the period from timing t3 to timing t4 is a state in which the setting value can be changed (change permission state), and after the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF, the setting value is changed. It becomes a state where it is impossible to change the setting (change impossible state). Then, by removing the metal setting key from the insertion port 1311ab of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a and closing the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 (timing t5), the player plays the game. It is possible to perform.

  When the setting value is changed, the main control MPU starts the main control power-on process when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3, but the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at timing t4. The setting change process in step S37 is not finished until it is set (it is not determined that the setting key switch 1311a has been turned off in step S222 of the setting change process), and during the period from timing t3 to timing t4, This prohibits the interrupt permission setting in step S52 from being performed, and delays the execution timing of the interrupt permission setting in step S52 compared to the normal power-on. Since the main control timer interrupt process is not started until the interrupt permission setting in step S52 is performed, the switch input process in step S104 in the main control timer interrupt process, the special symbol and the special electric accessory control in step S114. The process, the normal symbol in step S116 and the normal electric accessory control process, etc. are not executed and are in a standby state. That is, during the period from timing t3 to timing t4, the setting value can be changed (change-permitted state), but the first starting port 2002, the second starting port 2004, and the big winning port 2005. When a game ball B enters the gate portion 2003, the detection signal input is not validated, the special symbol variation display, the normal symbol variation display, the second start port, etc. A special period in which the opening operation of the door 2411, the opening operation of the grand prize opening door 2413, the sorting operation of the sorting piece 2415, etc. is not performed.

  As shown in FIG. 149, when the currently set value confirmation display is performed, first, it is confirmed whether the pachinko machine 1 is in a power-on state, and the pachinko machine 1 is turned on. If it is in the state, it is necessary to shut off the power of the pachinko machine 1 (timing t0). If the main frame 4 is closed with respect to the outer frame 2 when the pachinko machine 1 is not turned on (the power of the pachinko machine 1 is cut off), the outer frame 2 to open the main body frame 4 (timing t1), and then insert a metal setting key into the insertion port 1311aba of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a, and turn the setting key cylinder clockwise. Then, the setting key switch 1311a is turned ON by turning it 60 degrees and turning it ON (timing t2). Then, by operating the power switch 630a and turning on the power of the pachinko machine 1 without operating the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z (timing t3), it is possible to perform a confirmation display of the set value ( Confirmation display state). In such a confirmation display state, on the setting display 1310g, the current set value (the set value from the set value 1 to the set value 6 when the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a is turned on) is set. Then, the setting key switch 1311a is rotated 60 degrees counterclockwise so as to return to the original position from the rotation position of the setting key cylinder in which the setting key is turned ON (OFF timing). t4) The setting indicator 1310g is switched from the state where the set value is displayed to the state where it is not displayed. That is, during the period from timing t3 to timing t4, the setting value can be confirmed and displayed (confirmation display state). After timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF, the setting value is displayed. The confirmation display cannot be performed (confirmation impossible state). Then, by removing the metal setting key from the insertion port 1311ab of the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a and closing the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 (timing t5), the player plays the game. It is possible to perform.

  In the case of performing confirmation display of the currently set value, the main control MPU starts the main control power-on process when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3, but is set at timing t4. Until the key switch 1311a is turned off, the setting value confirmation display process in step S28 is not terminated (it is not determined that the setting key switch 1311a has been turned off in step S358 of the setting value confirmation display process), and from timing t3. During the period up to timing t4, it is prohibited so that the subsequent interrupt permission setting in step S52 is not performed, and the execution timing of the interrupt permission setting in step S52 is delayed as compared with the normal power-on. Since the main control timer interrupt process is not started until the interrupt permission setting in step S52 is performed, the switch input process in step S104 in the main control timer interrupt process, the special symbol and the special electric accessory control in step S114. The process, the normal symbol in step S116 and the normal electric accessory control process, etc. are not executed and are in a standby state. In other words, during the period from timing t3 to timing t4, the setting value can be confirmed and displayed (confirmation display state), but the first starting port 2002, the second starting port 2004, and the big winning port 2005. When a game ball B enters the gate portion 2003, the detection signal input is not validated, the special symbol variation display, the normal symbol variation display, the second start port, etc. A special period in which the opening operation of the door 2411, the opening operation of the grand prize opening door 2413, the sorting operation of the sorting piece 2415, etc. is not performed.

[13-1. Special symbols, various incoming ball detection, and payout devices]
As shown in FIG. 148, in the change permission state, which is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, the main control side timer interruption process (special symbol and special electric accessory control process in step S114) has not started. State in which it is impossible to display fluctuation display of special symbols (first special symbol, second special symbol) on special symbol indicators (first special symbol indicator, second special symbol indicator) of function display unit 1400 It becomes impossible state A). Then, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at timing t4, the main control side timer interrupt processing (special symbol and special electric accessory control processing in step S114) is started by executing the interrupt permission setting in step S52. Thus, the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 is in a state (variable state) in which the special symbol can be variably displayed.

  When the big hit game is started at the timing t6 after the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at the timing t4, the detection signal is output when the game ball B wins the first starting port 2002 or the second starting port 2004. While the input is valid, the special symbol display on the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 cannot be displayed in a variable state (variable state B). As described above, the non-variable state A and the non-variable state B are the same in that the special symbol display on the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 is not possible. In A, the input of the detection signal is not valid when the game ball B wins the first start port 2002 or the second start port 2004, whereas in the non-variable state B, the first start port 2002 or the second start port 2002 is not effective. The difference is that the input of the detection signal is made effective when the game ball B wins the two starting holes 2004.

  In addition, when the special symbol display on the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 is performed at the time of turning off the power at timing t0, or when the special symbol variation display is stored as a hold When the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at timing t4, the setting change process in step S37 of the main control power-on process is terminated. Subsequently, in step S38, a specific area of the entire area of the main control built-in RAM is selected. Since it is cleared except for, information on the change display of the special symbol will be lost. For this reason, after the end of the change permission state, which is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, although it becomes a variable state, it does not resume the display of the special symbol that has been suspended when the power is turned off. In addition, the special symbol stored as a hold at the time of power-off is not displayed.

  In addition, a fraud related error (for example, a severe error at the time of magnetic detection or vibration detection) has occurred that makes it impossible to play games such as fluctuation display of special symbols in the state where fluctuation is possible In some cases, the peripheral control MPU performs display processing of fraud related error information for notifying a predetermined display (for example, the effect display device 1600) or a predetermined light emitting device (for example, a plurality of light emitting devices). LED 121a, a plurality of LEDs 213a, etc.), which performs a light emission process of a fraud related error mode for notifying that effect, or a predetermined sound output device (for example, lower speaker 153a, etc.) The fraud related error output process for performing the related error sound output process is performed, but during the period from timing t3 to timing t4. The change permission state, but is an inability to perform the variable display of the special symbols state (variation disabled state A), it is not carried out the fraud-related error output processing described above. In the change permission state, which is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, it is assumed that the hall clerk opens the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 and changes the setting value. This is because the work efficiency of the hall clerk is emphasized rather than the necessity of fraud related error output processing intended to suggest to the event, and the occurrence of an event that hinders the work is suppressed. In addition, regarding the point of not performing the fraud related error output processing, do not perform all of the fraud related error information display processing, the light emission processing of the fraud related error mode, and the fraud related error sound output processing described above. However, in view of suppressing the occurrence of an event that hinders the work of the hall clerk, at least a part of the fraud related error output processing may not be performed. For example, it is possible to exemplify not performing the output process of fraud related error sound that can reduce the work efficiency of the worker at a large volume, but performing other processes as usual.

  Further, in the change permission state, which is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, the main control side timer interrupt processing (switch input processing in step S104) has not been started, so the first starting port 2002 and the second starting port 2004. , When a game ball B enters the winning gate 2005, the first receiving port 2007, the second receiving port 2008, etc., or the gate unit 2003, the detection signals from the corresponding detection sensors are mainly controlled. The MPU does not input, and the detection of the game ball B is handled as invalid. Note that the game ball B may not be detected by the detection sensor, or may be treated as invalid while a detection signal from the detection sensor is input. As described above, when invalidating the detection of the game ball B, for example, even if the game ball B enters the first start port 2002 or the second start port 2004, lottery, symbol variation (variation of special symbols) Display) and the payout of the game ball B will not be performed, so that the game ball B may be moved to the first start port 2002 or the second start port for some reason during the regular operation of changing the setting value. Even if the player enters a ball in 2004, the progress of the game can be suppressed. Similarly, when invalidating the detection of the game ball B, for example, even if the game ball B enters the big winning opening 2005, the first receiving port 2007, and the second receiving port 2008, the payout of the game ball B is performed. , The high-probability state is not given, so that the game ball B can be used for a certain reason during the regular operation for confirming and displaying the set value. Even if the player enters the second receiving port 2008, the progress of the game can be suppressed.

  In the change permission state, which is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, the main control MPU does not input detection signals from detection sensors corresponding to each of various winning awards and gate portions (gates). At the same time, the detection signal from the detection sensor corresponding to the out port 1008 is not input by the main control MPU, so that the detection of the game ball B is treated as invalid. Thus, when invalidating the detection of the game ball B discharged from the out port 1008, for example, for the game ball B discharged from the game area 5a in the change-permitted state, measurement by the base monitor 1310h described above is performed. It becomes possible to exclude from the target (target to be added to the out number counter), and the game ball B remaining in the game area 5a due to a ball clogging (ball clogging) or the like is detected in a change-permitted state and the base monitor 1310h It is possible to avoid a situation in which measurement is performed (added to the out number counter).

  On the other hand, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at timing t4, the main control side timer interrupt process (switch input process in step S104) is started by executing the interrupt permission setting in step S52, and the first start port 2002 is started. When the game ball B enters the gates 2003 and various winning ports such as the second starting port 2004, the big winning port 2005, the first receiving port 2007, and the second receiving port 2008, the detection sensors corresponding to each Is detected by the main control MPU, and the detection of the game ball B is treated as effective. As described above, when the detection of the game ball B is validated, when the game ball B enters the first start port 2002 or the second start port 2004, lottery, symbol variation (special symbol variation display). The game ball B can be paid out. Similarly, when the detection of the game ball B is validated, when the game ball B enters the big winning opening 2005, the first receiving port 2007, and the second receiving port 2008, the payout of the game ball B, the high It is possible to give a probability state (when the game ball B is set to the “valid state” as the state when the game ball B is received at the second receiving port 2008 as described above).

  In this example, from the time when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at the timing t4, that is, from the end time of the change permission state, the first start port 2002, the second start port 2004, the big winning port 2005, the first receiving port 2007. When the game ball B enters the various winning entrances such as the second receiving port 2008 and the gate unit 2003, the detection of the game ball B is treated as effective, but at the timing t5, the outer frame 2 On the other hand, when the main body frame 4 is closed, or when a predetermined time has elapsed since the setting key switch 1311a was turned off at timing t4, the detection of the game ball B may be treated as effective. This is because it is difficult to fire the game ball B by operating the handle 182 before closing the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 at timing t5, and it is difficult to start the game substantially. Because there is.

  In this example, when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3, the payout control MPU starts the payout control power-on process, and outputs a drive signal to the payout motor 584 of the payout device 350. The game ball B can be paid out from the payout device 350. In other words, the game ball B can be paid out from the payout device 350 in the change permission state that is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4. However, in the change permission state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, as described above, the main control MPU inputs detection signals from the detection sensors corresponding to the various winning awards and gate portions (gates). Therefore, for example, even if the game ball B enters the first start port 2002, the second start port 2004, or the grand prize winning port 2005 in the change permission state, the game ball B is not paid out. .

  Note that when the game ball B has entered the various winning openings and the game ball B has been paid out from the payout device 350 at the time point when the power is shut off at the timing t0, the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z. The operation signal (detection signal) of the RWM clear button 633z is input from the main control board 1310 to the payout control board 633 when the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at the timing t3 while operating the. Since all the areas are cleared, information regarding the payout of the game ball B is lost. Therefore, after the power of the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at the timing t3, the game ball B can be paid out from the payout device 350, but the game ball B which has not been paid out when the power is cut off can be discharged. It will not resume.

  As shown in FIG. 149, in the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, the main control side timer interruption processing (special symbol and special electric accessory control processing in step S114) is performed as in the change permission state. The special symbol (first special symbol indicator, second special symbol indicator) on the special symbol indicator (first special symbol indicator, second special symbol indicator) of the function display unit 1400 is displayed in a variable manner. Is impossible (variable state A). Then, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at timing t4, the main control side timer interrupt processing (special symbol and special electric accessory control processing in step S114) is started by executing the interrupt permission setting in step S52. Thus, the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 is in a state (variable state) in which the special symbol can be variably displayed.

  When the big hit game is started at the timing t6 after the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at the timing t4, the detection signal is output when the game ball B wins the first starting port 2002 or the second starting port 2004. While the input is valid, the special symbol display on the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 cannot be displayed in a variable state (variable state B). As described above, the non-variable state A and the non-variable state B are the same in that the special symbol display on the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 is not possible. In A, the input of the detection signal is not valid when the game ball B wins the first start port 2002 or the second start port 2004, whereas in the non-variable state B, the first start port 2002 or the second start port 2002 is not effective. The difference is that the input of the detection signal is made effective when the game ball B wins the two starting holes 2004.

  In addition, when the special symbol display on the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 is performed at the time of turning off the power at timing t0, or when the special symbol variation display is stored as a hold When the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at the timing t3 while operating the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z (when the setting value is changed), the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at the timing t4. At this time, the setting change process in step S37 of the main control power-on process is terminated, and then, in step S38, all areas of the main control built-in RAM are cleared except for a specific area. While the information regarding the display is lost, the timing t is operated without operating the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z. If the pachinko machine 1 is turned on (when the set value confirmation display is performed), the set value in step S28 of the main control power-on process is set when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at timing t4. Although the confirmation display process is ended, the process of step S38 for clearing all areas of the main control built-in RAM except for the specific area is not executed as after the setting change process of step S37. Information will be held. For this reason, after the confirmation display state, which is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, ends, the change display of the special symbol that has been interrupted when the power is turned off is resumed, triggered by the changeable state. In addition, the special symbol stored as a hold when the power is cut off is displayed.

  In addition, as described above, in a variable state, a fraud-related error (for example, a serious error at the time of magnetic detection or vibration detection) that makes it impossible to perform a game such as a special symbol variation display due to some illegal act. When an error occurs, the peripheral control MPU performs a display process of fraud related error information for notifying a predetermined display (for example, the effect display device 1600), or a predetermined light emitting device. (E.g., a plurality of LEDs 121a, a plurality of LEDs 213a, etc.) is subjected to a light emission process of a fraud related error mode to notify that, or a predetermined sound output device (e.g., the lower speaker 153a, etc.) The fraud-related error output process for performing the fraud-related error sound output process for notifying the effect is performed. In the confirmation display state, which is the period until the change permission state, the fraud-related error output process described above is performed although the special symbol variation display is not possible (variable impossibility state A). I do not do it. In the confirmation display state, which is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, it is assumed that the hall clerk opens the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 and performs confirmation display of the set value. This is because the work efficiency of the hall clerk is emphasized rather than the necessity of fraud related error output processing intended to suggest to the event, and the occurrence of an event that hinders the work is suppressed. In addition, regarding the point of not performing the fraud related error output processing, do not perform all of the fraud related error information display processing, the light emission processing of the fraud related error mode, and the fraud related error sound output processing described above. However, in view of suppressing the occurrence of an event that hinders the work of the hall clerk, at least a part of the fraud related error output processing may not be performed. For example, it is possible to exemplify not performing the output process of fraud related error sound that can reduce the work efficiency of the worker at a large volume, but performing other processes as usual. Also, in order not to perform fraud related error output processing, processing that is prohibited according to the difference in events that hinders the work of hall clerk with the control performed in the change permission state described above You may make it differ in the kind, number, etc. of. For example, in the change permission state, if any fraud related error occurs, all fraud related error output processing is not performed, but in the confirmation display state, if any fraud related error occurs, a fraud related error is output. In the change permission state, only a part of the processing is not performed, or when any fraud related error occurs, all fraud related error output processing is not performed, while the confirmation display status Then, it is possible to exemplify not performing a part of the fraud related error output process when some kind of fraud related error occurs.

  In addition, in the confirmation display state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, the main control side timer interrupt processing (switch input processing in step S104) is not started as in the change permission state. 2002, the second start port 2004, the big winning port 2005, the first receiving port 2007, the second receiving port 2008 and other various winning ports and the detection sensor corresponding to each when the game ball B enters the gate unit 2003 Thus, the main control MPU does not input the detection signal from, and the detection of the game ball B is treated as invalid. Note that the game ball B may not be detected by the detection sensor, or may be treated as invalid while a detection signal from the detection sensor is input. As described above, when invalidating the detection of the game ball B, for example, even if the game ball B enters the first start port 2002 or the second start port 2004, lottery, symbol variation (variation of special symbols) Display) and the payout of the game ball B will not be performed, so that the game ball B may be brought into the first start port 2002 or the second start port for some reason during the regular work of confirming and displaying the set value. Even if the player enters a ball in 2004, the progress of the game can be suppressed. Similarly, when invalidating the detection of the game ball B, for example, even if the game ball B enters the big winning opening 2005, the first receiving port 2007, and the second receiving port 2008, the payout of the game ball B is performed. , The high-probability state is not given, so that the game ball B can be used for a certain reason during the regular operation for confirming and displaying the set value. Even if the player enters the second receiving port 2008, the progress of the game can be suppressed.

  In the confirmation display state, which is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, the main control MPU does not input detection signals from detection sensors corresponding to each of the various winning awards and gate portions (gates). At the same time, the detection signal from the detection sensor corresponding to the out port 1008 is not input by the main control MPU, so that the detection of the game ball B is treated as invalid. Thus, when invalidating the detection of the game ball B discharged from the out port 1008, for example, the game monitor B discharged from the game area 5a in the confirmation display state is measured by the base monitor 1310h. It becomes possible to exclude from the target (target to be added to the out number counter), and the game ball B remaining in the game area 5a due to a ball clogging (ball clogging) or the like is detected in the confirmation display state, and the base monitor 1310h It is possible to avoid such a situation that it is measured (added to the out number counter).

  On the other hand, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at timing t4, the main control side timer interrupt process (switch input process in step S104) is started by executing the interrupt permission setting in step S52, and the first start port 2002 is started. When the game ball B enters the gates 2003 and various winning ports such as the second starting port 2004, the big winning port 2005, the first receiving port 2007, and the second receiving port 2008, the detection sensors corresponding to each Is detected by the main control MPU, and the detection of the game ball B is treated as effective. As described above, when the detection of the game ball B is validated, when the game ball B enters the first start port 2002 or the second start port 2004, lottery, symbol variation (special symbol variation display). The game ball B can be paid out. Similarly, when the detection of the game ball B is validated, when the game ball B enters the big winning opening 2005, the first receiving port 2007, and the second receiving port 2008, the payout of the game ball B, the high It is possible to give a probability state (when the game ball B is set to the “valid state” as the state when the game ball B is received at the second receiving port 2008 as described above).

  In this example, from the time when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at timing t4, that is, from the end of the confirmation display state, the first starting port 2002, the second starting port 2004, the big prize winning port 2005, the first receiving port 2007. When the game ball B enters the various winning entrances such as the second receiving port 2008 and the gate unit 2003, the detection of the game ball B is treated as effective, but at the timing t5, the outer frame 2 On the other hand, when the main body frame 4 is closed, or when a predetermined time has elapsed since the setting key switch 1311a was turned off at timing t4, the detection of the game ball B may be treated as effective. This is because it is difficult to fire the game ball B by operating the handle 182 before closing the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 at timing t5, and it is difficult to start the game substantially. Because there is.

  In this example, when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3, the payout control MPU starts the payout control power-on process, and outputs a drive signal to the payout motor 584 of the payout device 350. The game ball B can be paid out from the payout device 350. That is, the game ball B can be paid out from the payout device 350 in the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, as in the change permission state. However, in the confirmation display state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, as described above, the main control MPU inputs detection signals from the detection sensors corresponding to each of the various winning openings and gate portions (gates). For example, even if the game ball B enters the first start port 2002, the second start port 2004, or the big winning port 2005 in the confirmation display state, the game ball B is not paid out. .

  Note that when the game ball B has entered the various winning openings and the game ball B has been paid out from the payout device 350 at the time point when the power is shut off at the timing t0, the pressing operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z. If the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at the timing t3 while operating (when the setting value is changed), the RWM clear button 633z is operated from the main control board 1310 to the payout control board 633 at that time. Since a signal (detection signal) is input and the entire area of the payout control built-in RAM is cleared, information relating to the payout of the game ball B is lost, whereas the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is operated. If the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3 (when the set value confirmation display is performed), the payout control built-in RAM Because it does not execute a process of clearing the area, so that the information about the payout of the game ball B is held. For this reason, after the power of the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at the timing t3, the game ball B that has not been paid out when the power is shut off is triggered by the fact that the game ball B can be paid out from the payout device 350. The payout is resumed.

  In the confirmation display state, which is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, the setting indicator 1310g displays the current setting value (setting value 1 to setting at the time when the setting key cylinder 1311ab of the setting key switch 1311a is turned on. In the confirmation display state in which the game ball B which has not been paid out has been paid out at the time when the power supply is cut off as described above, When a payout-related error occurs, the payout control MPU notifies a display other than the setting indicator 1310g (for example, a 7-segment LED provided on the payout control board 633) to that effect. Performs related error information display processing or is applied to a predetermined light-emitting device (for example, a plurality of LEDs 121a or a plurality of LEDs 213a). Te, and to perform a payout associated error output processing for emission treatment payout related errors manner to notify. As a result, in the confirmation display state, whether or not the game ball B that has not been paid out when the power is turned off has been completed, or a payout related error such as a broken ball has occurred and the game ball B has been paid out. It is possible to determine whether or not there is a loss, and it is possible to prevent the player from causing a loss. Since the payout-related error processing is an important event for smoothly playing the game later, payout maintenance is emphasized regardless of the work efficiency of the hall clerk. In other words, the same processing as usual is performed without any restriction.

  As described above, when the game ball B enters the various winning openings at the timing t0 and the game ball B is paid out from the payout device 350, the RWM clear button 633z is If the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at the timing t3 without operating the pressing operation unit (when the set value confirmation display is performed), at that time, the game ball that has not been paid out when the power is shut off The payout of B can be resumed. On the other hand, in the confirmation display state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, a special symbol (first special symbol display) on the special symbol display (first special symbol display, second special symbol display) of the function display unit 1400 is displayed. , The second special symbol) is in a state in which it is impossible to display the variation (unvariable state A), and the special symbol change in the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 when the power is shut off at timing t0. When the display is performed, or when the change display of the special symbol is stored as the hold, when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3 without operating the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z If it is (when the set value confirmation display is performed), at that time, the fluctuation display of the special symbol that was suspended when the power was turned off is restarted, Never or performs variable display of the special symbols are stored as pending at the time of the cut off. In other words, in the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, the change display of the special symbol that has been interrupted when the power is turned off is resumed, or is stored as a hold when the power is turned off. It is a period during which only the game ball B that has not been paid out can be paid out at the time when the power supply is cut off, while the special symbols are not displayed in a variable manner and the progress of the game is prevented. . For example, when the hall is closed, when the game ball B enters the various winning openings and the game ball B is paid out from the payout device 350, the power is turned off when the power is turned off. Loss will occur to the player for the game balls B that have not been paid out, but after that, the pachinko machine 1 is turned on and put into a confirmation display state to prevent the progress of the game after the power is turned off. However, it is possible to only pay out the game balls B that have not been paid out when the power is turned off, and it is possible to prevent the player from being lost.

  As a modification of the above, when the setting key switch 1311a is set to ON and the pachinko machine 1 is turned on without operating the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z, the setting key switch 1311a is turned on. Until the setting key is turned OFF, the special symbol variation display is disabled, the progress of the game after the power is shut off is prevented, and the game ball B that has not been paid out when the power is turned off is displayed. While the period during which only payout can be performed is set, the setting value confirmation display may not be performed. In addition, when an operation unit different from the setting key switch 1311a, the RWM clear button 633z, and the power switch 630a is provided and the hall clerk turns the operation on, the time until the operation is turned off. Only the payout of the game ball B that has not been paid out when the hall clerk turns on the operation while preventing the progress of the game after the hall clerk turns the operation on is made impossible to display the variation of the special symbol. It is good also as a period which can perform. Also in such a case, for example, when the hall is closed, the game clerk B who has not been paid out when the hall clerk turns on the operation while preventing the progress of the game during the period when the hall clerk turns the operation on is paid out. It is possible to prevent the loss of the player.

  As described above, after the end of the change permission state, which is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, the variable symbol state in which the special symbol on the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 can be displayed is changed. The special symbol stored as the hold is not displayed when the power is turned off. On the other hand, after the confirmation display state, which is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, is finished, the state becomes variable. In response to this, a special symbol stored as a hold is displayed when the power is turned off. More specifically, when a ball enters the first starting port 2002 or the second starting port 2004 during the special symbol variation display, a special random number is stored as a hold in the main control built-in RAM. If a special random number is stored as a hold in the main control built-in RAM at the time of shutting off, the special random number is stored and held as game backup information in the main control side power-off process. Then, if the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3 and then shifts to the change-permitted state, the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at timing t4 and stored in the main control built-in RAM when the change-permitted state ends. Since the game backup information is cleared, the special random number stored as a hold is also lost.

  In the change permission state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, the special random number stored as the hold before the power is turned off is deleted, so that the function display unit 1400 is added to the hold display on the effect display device 1600. The on-hold display in the on-hold number display is hidden. In addition, in the change permission state that is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, even if the ball enters the first starting port 2002 or the second starting port 2004, the detection of the game ball B is treated as invalid. No special random number is stored as a new hold.

  By the way, when the change permission state ends, if the special random number stored as a hold before the power is shut off is not erased, the following adverse effects occur. In this example, the higher the set value among the set values 1 to 6, the greater the number of jackpot determination values set in the jackpot determination table so that the jackpot probability is higher. When changing the setting value in the permission state, if the setting value is changed from a low setting value (for example, setting value 1) to a high setting value (for example, setting value 6), the result of the big hit determination is a big hit. Since the special random number increases and the jackpot probability increases, there is a possibility that the special random number that was out of the set value before the power shutoff becomes a big hit in the set value after the change permission state ends. On the other hand, when the setting value is changed in the change permission state, if the setting value is changed from a high setting value (for example, setting value 6) to a low setting value (for example, setting value 1), the result of the big hit determination is Since the special random number that is regarded as a big hit decreases and the probability of a big hit decreases, the special random number that was a big hit in the setting value before power-off may be missed in the setting value after the end of the change permission state . In this regard, in this example, when the change permission state ends, the special random number stored as the hold is deleted, so that the result of the jackpot determination is changed before the power is turned off and after the change permission state ends. It is possible to prevent a situation that lacks fairness from occurring. In particular, when a person who is not a hall manager changes a setting value in a change-permitted state due to fraudulent behavior, the person tries to change the setting value to a higher setting value (for example, setting value 6). For example, even when the setting value is changed to the setting value 6), the result of the jackpot determination is not changed to the jackpot, and it is possible to prevent an unauthorized person from performing an illegal act. If the hall administrator changes the setting value while the change is permitted, the special random number stored as a hold before the power is turned off will be deleted, so that the player will not be penalized. It is preferable to turn off the power in a state where there is no hold, and then change the setting value in the change permission state.

  In addition, when changing the setting value in the change-permitted state, not only when the setting value is changed from a low setting value (for example, setting value 1) to a high setting value (for example, setting value 6) before power-off, Even when the set value before power-off is maintained, the special random number stored as the hold is deleted when the change permission state ends. For example, when a person who is not a hall administrator changes a setting value in a change-permitted state due to fraudulent behavior, he / she tries to change the setting value to a higher setting value (for example, setting value 6). There is a possibility that it is not necessary to change the high setting value. Even in such a case, the special random number stored as a hold before the power shutdown is erased at the end of the change permission state, so that the special random number that is likely to be a big hit at a high setting value before the power shutdown is changed. Since the opportunity to perform the jackpot determination based on this is lost, it is possible to prevent anyone other than the hall manager from performing fraud.

  On the other hand, if the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at the timing t3 and then shifts to the confirmation display state, the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at the timing t4 and stored in the main control built-in RAM when the confirmation display state ends. Since the game backup information is not cleared, a special random number stored as a hold before power-off is held. In the confirmation display state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, even if the ball enters the first starting port 2002 or the second starting port 2004, the detection of the game ball B is treated as invalid. No special random number is stored as a new hold. In such a confirmation display state, only the setting value setting confirmation is performed, and the setting value is not changed unlike the change permission state. In other words, even if a person who is not the hall administrator performs setting confirmation of the set value in the confirmation display state due to fraud, the special random number stored as the hold will be Since the result of the jackpot judgment will not change after the end, and no profit will be gained by fraudulent behavior, the special random number stored as a hold before power off will be retained at the end of the confirmation display state It is said.

  In addition, when a person who is not the hall administrator checks the setting value in the confirmation display state due to fraudulent behavior, he or she accesses the back of the pachinko machine 1 in some way while pretending to be playing normally. If the setting value confirmed illegally is an unfavorable setting content (for example, the setting value 1 having the lowest jackpot probability), an advantageous setting content ( For example, it is conceivable that a pachinko machine 1 having a setting value 6) with the highest probability of jackpot is obtained and immediately left. In this point, in this example, when checking the setting value in the confirmation display state, the hold is held without erasing. It is possible to make it difficult to take an uncomfortable action such as “get away”, and to monitor an action with such an uncomfortable feeling, it is possible to easily catch a person who performs an illegal setting check. As a result, it is possible to prevent anyone other than the hall manager from performing unauthorized setting confirmation.

  In addition, in order to further increase the deterrence of fraud, in the confirmation display state, the function display unit is held in addition to the hold display on the effect display device 1600 while holding the special random number stored as the hold before power-off. The hold display on the hold number display 1400 is also temporarily hidden, and is displayed as if the special random number stored as the hold no longer exists as in the change permission state. This makes it possible for the fraudster to misunderstand that the hold has disappeared, and to abandon the continuation of the game after confirming the setting fraudulently. In order to effectively exhibit such a deterrent effect, not only the confirmation display state but also a predetermined return timing (for example, when the body frame 4 is closed or for a predetermined time) after the confirmation display state ends. The on-hold display may be in a non-display state over a period until the elapse (e.g.).

[13-2. About jackpot games and launchers]
As shown in FIG. 148, in the change permission state, which is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, the main control side timer interruption process (special symbol and special electric accessory control process in step S114) has not started. The grand prize opening door 2413 that can open and close the big prize opening 2005 and the sorting piece 2415 that distributes the game ball B received in the big prize opening 2005 to either the first reception port 2007 or the second reception port 2008 are operated. It becomes impossible. Then, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at timing t4, the main control side timer interrupt processing (special symbol and special electric accessory control processing in step S114) is started by executing the interrupt permission setting in step S52. Then, the grand prize opening door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415 can be operated. Thus, when the big hit game is started at the timing t6 after the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at the timing t4, the big winning opening door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415 can be operated as the big hit game. The game ball B can be made to enter the grand prize winning port 2005, or the game ball B received by the big prize winning port 2005 can be distributed to the second receiving port 2008.

  When the power is cut off at the timing t0 and the big winning door 2424 and the sorting piece 2415 are operating during the big hit game, the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at the timing t4. Since the setting change process in step S37 of the main control power-on process is terminated, and in step S38, all areas of the main control built-in RAM are cleared except for a specific area, so that the big hit game is being executed ( Information regarding the big winning opening door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415 is being lost. For this reason, after the end of the change permission state, which is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, it becomes possible to operate the grand prize opening door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415, but is interrupted when the power is shut off. The big hit game that has been made is not resumed, and the grand prize winning door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415 are not operated.

  As described above, in the change permission state that is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, the main control side timer interrupt processing (switch input processing in step S104) has not started, so the first start port 2002, the second When a game ball B enters the winning port such as the start port 2004, the big winning port 2005, the first receiving port 2007, the second receiving port 2008, or the gate portion 2003, detection signals from the corresponding detection sensors Is not input by the main control MPU, and the detection of the game ball B is treated as invalid. As described above, when invalidating the detection of the game ball B, for example, even if the game ball B enters the big winning opening 2005, the first receiving port 2007, and the second receiving port 2008, Neither the payout nor the high probability state is given, so that the game ball B can be used for some reason during the regular operation for changing the setting value, for some reason, the big prize opening 2005, the first entrance 2007, Even if the player enters the second receiving port 2008, the progress of the game can be suppressed.

  Further, in this example, the prize winning opening door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415 can be operated from the time when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at the timing t4, that is, from the end of the change permission state. When the main body frame 4 is closed with respect to the outer frame 2 at the timing t5, or when a predetermined time has elapsed since the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at the timing t4, the special winning opening door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415 are operated. It is good also as a state where it is possible. This is because it is difficult to fire the game ball B by operating the handle 182 before closing the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 at timing t5, and it is difficult to start the game substantially. Because there is.

  In the change permission state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, the main control side timer interruption process (the firing permission signal setting process in step S113) is not started, but the firing by the handle 182 in the change permission state. In consideration of performing an operation check or the like, in that period, the logic of a launch permission signal that informs the launch control unit 633b of the payout control board 633 that launch of the game ball B is permitted is set. When the handle 182 is operated, the game ball B can be launched. Further, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at timing t4, the main control side timer interrupt process (the firing permission signal setting process in step S113) is started by executing the interrupt permission setting in step S52, and the change permission state Even after the end of, the state in which the game ball B can be launched when the handle 182 is operated is continued. In this way, it is possible to prepare for the launch of the game ball B by operating the handle 182 before closing the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 at the timing t5. The game can be started immediately after closing.

  As shown in FIG. 149, in the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, the main control side timer interruption processing (special symbol and special electric accessory control processing in step S114) is performed as in the change permission state. Since the game has not started, the prize winning opening door 2413 capable of opening and closing the prize winning opening 2005 and the game ball B received in the prize winning opening 2005 are distributed to either the first receiving port 2007 or the second receiving port 2008. The sorting piece 2415 cannot be operated. Then, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at timing t4, the main control side timer interrupt processing (special symbol and special electric accessory control processing in step S114) is started by executing the interrupt permission setting in step S52. Then, the grand prize opening door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415 can be operated. Thus, when the big hit game is started at the timing t6 after the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at the timing t4, the big winning opening door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415 can be operated as the big hit game. The game ball B can be made to enter the grand prize winning port 2005, or the game ball B received by the big prize winning port 2005 can be distributed to the second receiving port 2008.

  When the power is cut off at the timing t0 and the big winning opening door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415 are operating during the big hit game, the timing is operated while operating the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z. If the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at t3 (when the setting value is changed), the setting of step S37 in the main control power-on process is performed when the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at timing t4. The change process is terminated, and then, in step S38, all areas of the main control built-in RAM are cleared except for a specific area, so that the big hit game is being executed (the action of the big prize door 2413 and the distribution piece 2415) While the information on the middle) is lost, the pachinko machine 1 does not operate at the timing t3 without operating the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z. If the power source is turned on (when the setting value confirmation display is performed), the setting value confirmation display processing in step S28 of the main control power-on processing is terminated when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at timing t4. However, since the process of step S38 for clearing all areas of the main control built-in RAM except for the specific area is not executed as after the setting change process of step S37, the big hit game is being executed (the big prize opening door 2413). And information on the operation of the sorting piece 2415). For this reason, as shown in FIG. 150, after the confirmation display state, which is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, is ended, it becomes possible to operate the special prize opening door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415. As a trigger, the big hit game that has been interrupted when the power is cut off is resumed, and the grand prize winning door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415 are operated. Further, as will be described later, it is possible to prepare for the launch of the game ball B by operating the handle 182 before restarting the big hit game that was interrupted when the power was cut off at the timing t5. Immediately after resuming the game, it is possible to efficiently enter the game ball B into the big winning opening 2007 or the second receiving port 2008.

  As described above, in the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, the main control side timer interrupt processing (switch input processing in step S104) has not started, so the first start port 2002, the second When a game ball B enters the winning port such as the start port 2004, the big winning port 2005, the first receiving port 2007, the second receiving port 2008, or the gate portion 2003, detection signals from the corresponding detection sensors Is not input by the main control MPU, and the detection of the game ball B is treated as invalid. As described above, when invalidating the detection of the game ball B, for example, even if the game ball B enters the big winning opening 2005, the first receiving port 2007, and the second receiving port 2008, Neither the payout nor the high probability state is given, so that the game ball B can be used for a certain reason during the regular operation of confirming and displaying the set value for the big prize opening 2005, the first entrance 2007, Even if the player enters the second receiving port 2008, the progress of the game can be suppressed.

  Further, in this example, the winning key door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415 can be operated from the time when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at the timing t4, that is, from the end of the confirmation display state. When the main body frame 4 is closed with respect to the outer frame 2 at the timing t5, or when a predetermined time has elapsed since the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at the timing t4, the special winning opening door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415 are operated. It is good also as a state in which it is possible. This is because it is difficult to fire the game ball B by operating the handle 182 before closing the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 at timing t5, and it is difficult to start the game substantially. Because there is. Further, when the big hit game suspended at the time of turning off the power from the time when the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at timing t4, that is, from the end of the confirmation display state, before the big hit game is resumed. Although it is difficult to prepare the launch of the game ball B by operating the handle 182, it is possible to delay the restart of the big hit game that was interrupted when the power was turned off, before restarting the big hit game. It is easy to prepare the launch of the game ball B by operating the handle 182, and it is possible to efficiently enter the game ball B into the big winning port 2007 and the second receiving port 2008 immediately after resuming the big hit game. .

  Further, in the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, as in the change permission state, the main control timer interruption process (the firing permission signal setting process in step S113) has not started, but the confirmation display In consideration of performing the check of the launch operation by the handle 182 in the state, the launch permission signal that informs the launch control unit 633b of the payout control board 633 that the launch of the game ball B is permitted during that period. The logic is set so that the game ball B can be launched when the handle 182 is operated. Further, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at timing t4, the main control side timer interrupt process (the firing permission signal setting process in step S113) is started by executing the interrupt permission setting in step S52, and the change permission state Even after the end of, the state in which the game ball B can be launched when the handle 182 is operated is continued. In this way, it is possible to prepare for the launch of the game ball B by operating the handle 182 before closing the main body frame 4 with respect to the outer frame 2 at the timing t5. The game can be started immediately after closing.

[13-3. About production devices and production members]
As shown in FIG. 148, in this example, when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3, the peripheral control MPU starts the peripheral control power-on process, and a predetermined display is displayed on the screen of the effect display device 1600. It is possible to display an image. And in the change permission state which is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, the symbol display (decorative symbol display) on the screen of the effect display device 1600 is erased, and the output from the image, lamp and speaker of the effect display device 1600 The setting change notification for notifying that the setting value setting is being changed is executed. As a notification of the setting change, a sound that repeats “setting change”, a message “setting change!”, And lamp emission in a color corresponding to the setting values 1 to 6 in the selection operation process are executed. I am going to do that. The notification during setting change is notification (effect) performed only in the change-permitted state, and is executed with priority over the body frame opening notification performed when the body frame 4 is opened with respect to the outer frame 2. . That is, when the main body frame 4 is open with respect to the outer frame 2, the main body frame release notification (such as “open frame” display or voice) is normally performed, but in the change permission state, the main body frame release notification is performed. The setting change notification is executed with the highest priority without performing the above. Note that the body frame release notification and the setting change notification are executed in parallel, and the setting change notification has priority over the body frame release notification, and the body frame release notification is performed after the setting change notification ends. A form can also be illustrated. Then, after the end of the change permission state at the timing t4, until a predetermined period (for example, about 20 seconds) elapses, the variation of the symbol or the big hit game is caused by the output from the image, lamp, or speaker of the effect display device 1600. A game start notification for notifying that the game can be started is executed.

  In addition, in the change permission state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, in addition to the image of the effect display device 1600, the output from the lamp, and the speaker, notification by the function display unit 1400 is also given as the above-described setting change notification. Running. Specifically, in the function display unit 1400, although not shown, a status indicator, a normal symbol indicator, a normal hold indicator, a first special symbol indicator, a first special hold number indicator, a second special indicator In addition to the design indicator, the second special hold number indicator, and the round indicator, the setting change indicator, which consists of one LED that indicates that the setting value is being changed (change-permitted state), A confirmation display indicator that includes one LED for indicating that confirmation is being displayed (confirmation display state) is provided. In the change permission state, only the LEDs of the display unit during setting change in the function display unit 1400 are turned on, and all the LEDs of the other display units are turned off. Thereby, in a change permission state, it can grasp | ascertain that a game does not advance by the notification by the function display unit 1400.

  Further, in the change permission state that is a period from timing t3 to timing t4, various winnings such as the first starting port 2002, the second starting port 2004, the big winning port 2005, the first receiving port 2007, the second receiving port 2008, and the like. When the game ball B enters the mouth or gate part 2003, even if the main control MPU inputs detection signals from the corresponding detection sensors, the detection of the game ball B is treated as invalid. However, when such a detection signal is input, various winning awards and gates are displayed, even though it is not a period in which the game should be performed in the change-permitted state due to the output from the effect display device 1600, the lamp, and the speaker. The warning effect A for notifying that the game ball B has entered the club is executed. This warning effect A is executed with priority over the setting change notification and the main body frame release notification. That is, when the warning effect A is executed, the warning effect A is executed with the highest priority without performing the setting change notification or the main body frame opening notification.

  Further, the normal time when the main body frame 4 is closed with respect to the outer frame 2 is a period in which the setting key switch 1311a is not in a state in which the setting key is ON, but such a setting key is in an ON state. In such a case, the warning effects B and C for notifying that the setting key has been turned on illegally by the output from the effect display device 1600, the lamp, and the speaker are executed. Specifically, when the setting key switch 1311a is in the state where the setting key is turned ON in a state where the symbol variation is performed at normal time, until the setting key switch 1311a returns to the setting key OFF, Warning effect B is being executed. Similarly, when the setting key switch 1311a is in a state in which the setting key is turned on in a state where the symbol variation is not performed at normal time, the warning effect is produced until the setting key switch 1311a returns to the setting key OFF. C is running. The warning effects B and C are executed with priority over the effect being executed. In other words, when the warning effects B and C are executed, the warning effects B and C are executed with the highest priority by stopping the effect being executed regardless of whether or not the symbol variation is being performed. The warning effects B and C are executed in the same manner, but the effects may be executed in different manners so that it can be determined whether or not the symbol variation is being performed.

  Further, in this example, when the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at timing t3, the peripheral control MPU starts the peripheral control power-on process, and detects the operation of the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161). It is possible to adjust the volume output from the speaker and the amount of light output from the light emitting member such as the lamp or the screen of the effect display device 1600 in a stepwise manner. That is, in the change permission state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, the operation of the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161) can be detected, and the volume output from the speaker, the lamp, and the effect display device 1600 can be detected. The amount of light output from the light emitting member such as the screen can be adjusted stepwise. Specifically, an image for adjustment (a volume gauge image representing a five-stage adjustment status depending on the time of long press) and a light amount are displayed on the effect display device 1600 by long pressing the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161). After displaying the gauge image), the volume and amount of light are adjusted step by step (1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → 5 → 1 → 2) each time the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161) is pressed for a short time. ..), And the volume and the amount of light can be determined by not operating the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161) for a predetermined time. However, during the period in which an effect using the effect operation unit 160 is being performed during symbol variation, the effect operation unit 160 is in a state of waiting for the effect operation unit 160 to be operated for that effect. Even if the operation is performed, the prohibition period in which the volume and the amount of light cannot be adjusted is set.

  Further, in this example, when the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at timing t3, the peripheral control MPU starts the peripheral control power-on processing, and the production member mounted on the main body frame 4 or the game board 5 (For example, the initial operation of the effect operation unit 160 and the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210) is performed. That is, in the change permission state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, the main body is set in a state where the special symbol display on the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 cannot be changed (unchangeable state A). An initial operation of a production member (for example, the production operation unit 160 or a plurality of rotating decoration bodies 3210) mounted on the frame 4 or the game board 5 is performed. Each such production member is a member that can operate between an initial position and an operation position. In the initial operation of the production member, the production member normally operates from the initial position toward the operation position. Such as confirmation, and accurate alignment is performed so that the production member waits at the initial position. And after the end of the change permission state at the timing t4, it is possible to execute the effect using the effect member. For example, as a variation pattern (variation pattern command) transmitted from the main control board 1310 to the peripheral control board 1510, when a variation pattern in which an effect using an effect member is set during symbol variation is transmitted, The effect member is moved from the initial position to the operating position at a predetermined timing during the change.

  If the setting key switch 1311a is not turned on when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on and the setting value setting change or the setting value confirmation display is not performed, the change permission state or the confirmation display state is displayed. As described above, since the execution timing of the interrupt permission setting in step S52 is not delayed and the main control side timer interrupt processing is started by executing the interrupt permission setting, immediately after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, the function display unit It becomes a state (variable state) in which the special symbol variable display on the 1400 special symbol display can be performed. However, in such a case, since the transition to the variable state is possible without waiting for the completion of the initial operation of the effect member mounted on the main body frame 4 or the game board 5, for example, after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on. In the initial operation of the effect member, when a variation pattern in which an effect using the effect member is set is transmitted during the design variation, the effect member is moved from the initial position to the operation position based on the variation pattern. In some cases, the opportunity to operate the production member may be lost. On the other hand, in this example, in a change permission state that is a period from timing t3 to timing t4, a state in which the special symbol variation display on the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 cannot be performed (unvariable state A However, since the initial operation of the effect member mounted on the main body frame 4 or the game board 5 is performed, the initial operation of the effect member is completed when the change permission state is entered after the change permission state ends. The possibility is high. Thereby, after the change permission state is finished, even if the variation pattern in which the effect using the effect member is set is transmitted during the symbol variation, the initial operation of the effect member is not affected. Based on the variation pattern, the production member can be moved from the initial position to the operation position, and information obtained from the production content is not missed.

  However, the initial operation of the effect members mounted on the main body frame 4 and the game board 5 requires a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds) to be completed. For this reason, in the change permission state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, if the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at timing t4 before the initial operation of the rendering member is completed, the initial stage of the rendering member Waiting for the completion of the operation, it is possible to execute the effect using the effect member. In other words, the timing at which the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at the timing t4 may be before or after the completion of the initial operation of the effect member. In any case, the setting key switch at the timing t4. When 1311a is turned OFF, it is possible to perform symbol variation.

  As shown in FIG. 149, in this example, when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3, the peripheral control MPU starts the peripheral control power-on processing, and a predetermined display is displayed on the screen of the effect display device 1600. It is possible to display an image. Then, in the confirmation display state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, the symbol display (decorative symbol display) on the screen of the effect display device 1600 is erased and the image of the effect display device 1600 is displayed as in the change permission state. A notification during confirmation display for notifying that the setting value confirmation display is being performed is executed by the output from the lamp and the speaker. As the notification during confirmation display, a sound that repeats “confirmation display”, a message display “confirmation display!”, And lamp emission in a color corresponding to the set values 1 to 6 are executed. I am going to do that. Further, the notification during confirmation display is notification (effect) performed only in the confirmation display state, and is executed with priority over the body frame release notification performed when the body frame 4 is opened with respect to the outer frame 2. . That is, when the main body frame 4 is open with respect to the outer frame 2, the main body frame release notification (such as “frame open” or sound) is normally performed, but in the confirmation display state, the main body frame release notification is performed. The notification during confirmation display is executed with the highest priority without performing the above. The body frame release notification and the confirmation display notification are executed in parallel, and the confirmation display notification is given priority over the body frame release notification, and the body frame release notification is performed after the confirmation display notification is completed. A form can also be illustrated. Then, after the confirmation display state at the timing t4 is over, until a predetermined period (for example, about 20 seconds) elapses, depending on the output of the effect display device 1600, the lamp, and the speaker, the symbol variation and the big hit game A game start notification for notifying that the game can be started is executed.

  In addition, after the confirmation display state at timing t4 is over, the big hit that is interrupted when the power is turned off, triggered by the fact that the grand prize opening door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415 can be operated. It is possible to resume the game and operate the grand prize winning door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415. However, as shown in FIG. 150, when such a big hit game is resumed, the images and lamps of the effect display device 1600, The jackpot game restart notification is executed to notify that the jackpot game 2413 and the sorting piece 2415 that are interrupted when the power is cut off is resumed by the output from the speaker and the jackpot door 2413 and the sorting piece 2415 are operated. Before resuming the big hit game, the output from the effect display device 1600 and the output from the lamp and the speaker are waiting for execution of the big hit game, which is interrupted when the power is cut off, that is, the big prize opening door 2413 and the swing winning game. A big hit game standby notification for notifying that the operation of the segment 2415 is waiting may be executed. Thus, it is possible to prepare for the launch of the game ball B by operating the handle 182 before resuming the big hit game, and the game can be efficiently put into the big prize winning port 2007 and the second entrance 2008 immediately after the big hit game is resumed. Sphere B can be entered.

  In addition, in the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, in addition to the output from the display of the effect display device 1600, the lamp, and the speaker as the above-described confirmation display notification as in the change permission state, Notification by the function display unit 1400 is also executed. Specifically, in the function display unit 1400, although not shown, a status indicator, a normal symbol indicator, a normal hold indicator, a first special symbol indicator, a first special hold number indicator, a second special indicator In addition to the design indicator, the second special hold number indicator, and the round indicator, the setting change indicator, which consists of one LED that indicates that the setting value is being changed (change-permitted state), A confirmation display indicator that includes one LED for indicating that confirmation is being displayed (confirmation display state) is provided. In the confirmation display state, only the LEDs of the display during confirmation display in the function display unit 1400 are turned on, and all the LEDs of the other displays are turned off. Thereby, in the confirmation display state, it can be grasped that the game does not proceed by the notification by the function display unit 1400.

  In addition, in the confirmation display state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, various winnings such as the first starting port 2002, the second starting port 2004, the big winning port 2005, the first receiving port 2007, the second receiving port 2008, and the like. When the game ball B enters the mouth or gate part 2003, even if the main control MPU inputs detection signals from the corresponding detection sensors, the detection of the game ball B is treated as invalid. However, when such a detection signal is input, various winning awards and gates are displayed even though it is not a period in which the game is to be played in the confirmation display state by the output from the effect display device 1600, the lamp, and the speaker. The warning effect A for notifying that the game ball B has entered the club is executed. This warning effect A is executed with priority over the notification during confirmation display and the body frame release notification. That is, when the warning effect A is executed, the warning effect A is executed with the highest priority without performing the confirmation display notification or the main body frame release notification.

  Further, the normal time when the main body frame 4 is closed with respect to the outer frame 2 is a period in which the setting key switch 1311a is not in a state in which the setting key is ON, but such a setting key is in an ON state. In such a case, the warning effects B and C for notifying that the setting key has been turned on illegally by the output from the effect display device 1600, the lamp, and the speaker are executed. Specifically, when the setting key switch 1311a is in the state where the setting key is turned ON in a state where the symbol variation is performed at normal time, until the setting key switch 1311a returns to the setting key OFF, Warning effect B is being executed. Similarly, when the setting key switch 1311a is in a state in which the setting key is turned on in a state where the symbol variation is not performed at normal time, the warning effect is produced until the setting key switch 1311a returns to the setting key OFF. C is running. The warning effects B and C are executed with priority over the effect being executed. In other words, when the warning effects B and C are executed, the warning effects B and C are executed with the highest priority by stopping the effect being executed regardless of whether or not the symbol variation is being performed. The warning effects B and C are executed in the same manner, but the effects may be executed in different manners so that it can be determined whether or not the symbol variation is being performed.

  Further, in this example, when the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at timing t3, the peripheral control MPU starts the peripheral control power-on process, and detects the operation of the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161). It is possible to adjust the volume output from the speaker and the amount of light output from the light emitting member such as the lamp or the screen of the effect display device 1600 in a stepwise manner. That is, in the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, as in the change permission state, the operation of the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161) can be detected, and the volume output from the speaker Further, it is possible to adjust the light amount output from the light emitting member such as the lamp or the screen of the effect display device 1600 in a stepwise manner. Specifically, an image for adjustment (a volume gauge image representing a five-stage adjustment status depending on the time of long press) and a light amount are displayed on the effect display device 1600 by long pressing the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161). After displaying the gauge image), the volume and amount of light are adjusted step by step (1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → 5 → 1 → 2) each time the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161) is pressed for a short time. ..), And the volume and the amount of light can be determined by not operating the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161) for a predetermined time. However, during the period in which an effect using the effect operation unit 160 is being performed during symbol variation, the effect operation unit 160 is in a state of waiting for the effect operation unit 160 to be operated for that effect. Even if the operation is performed, the prohibition period in which the volume and the amount of light cannot be adjusted is set.

  Further, in this example, when the pachinko machine 1 is powered on at timing t3, the peripheral control MPU starts the peripheral control power-on processing, and the production member mounted on the main body frame 4 or the game board 5 (For example, the initial operation of the effect operation unit 160 and the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210) is performed. That is, in the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, as in the change-permitted state, a state in which it is impossible to display the variation of the special symbol on the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 (unvariable) In the state A), the initial operation of the production members (for example, the production operation unit 160 and the plurality of rotary decoration bodies 3210) mounted on the main body frame 4 and the game board 5 is performed. Each such production member is a member that can operate between an initial position and an operation position. In the initial operation of the production member, each of the production members is sequentially or simultaneously arranged in a predetermined operation pattern. By operating, the confirmation of whether or not the effect member operates normally from the initial position toward the operation position, and accurate alignment so that the effect member waits at the initial position are performed. Then, after the end of the confirmation display state at the timing t4, it is possible to execute an effect using the effect member. For example, as a variation pattern (variation pattern command) transmitted from the main control board 1310 to the peripheral control board 1510, when a variation pattern in which an effect using an effect member is set during symbol variation is transmitted, The effect member is moved from the initial position to the operating position at a predetermined timing during the change.

  If the setting key switch 1311a is not turned on when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on and the setting value setting change or the setting value confirmation display is not performed, the change permission state or the confirmation display state is displayed. As described above, since the execution timing of the interrupt permission setting in step S52 is not delayed and the main control side timer interrupt processing is started by executing the interrupt permission setting, immediately after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, the function display unit It becomes a state (variable state) in which the special symbol variable display on the 1400 special symbol display can be performed. However, in such a case, since the transition to the variable state is possible without waiting for the completion of the initial operation of the effect member mounted on the main body frame 4 or the game board 5, for example, after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on. In the initial operation of the effect member, when a variation pattern in which an effect using the effect member is set is transmitted during the design variation, the effect member is moved from the initial position to the operation position based on the variation pattern. In some cases, the opportunity to operate the production member may be lost. On the other hand, in this example, in the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, the special symbol display on the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 cannot be performed (the non-variable state A). However, since the initial operation of the production member mounted on the main body frame 4 or the game board 5 is performed, the initial operation of the production member is completed when shifting to the variable state after completion of the confirmation display state. The possibility is high. Thereby, even after the end of the confirmation display state, even if the variation pattern in which the effect using the effect member is set is transmitted during the symbol variation, it is not affected by the initial operation of the effect member, Based on the variation pattern, the production member can be moved from the initial position to the operation position, and information obtained from the production content is not missed.

  However, the initial operation of the effect members mounted on the main body frame 4 and the game board 5 requires a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds) to be completed. For this reason, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at the timing t4 before the initial operation of the effect member is completed in the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, the initial effect member is displayed. Waiting for the completion of the operation, it is possible to execute the effect using the effect member. In other words, the timing at which the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at the timing t4 may be before or after the completion of the initial operation of the effect member. In any case, the setting key switch at the timing t4. When 1311a is turned OFF, it is possible to perform symbol variation.

  In addition, when each production member is mounted on the main body frame 4 and the game board 5, at least the initial operation of the production member mounted on the game board 5 is executed in advance and is mounted on the main body frame 4. The initial operation of the effect member that has been performed may be delayed until “after closing the main body frame 4 at timing t5”. This is because the body frame 4 is opened during setting value setting change or setting value confirmation display, and the body frame 4 is closed by the closing operation of the body frame 4 after the setting value setting change or setting value confirmation display ends. An impact is generated in the frame 4. For this reason, during the closing operation of the main body frame 4, there is a possibility that a production member mounted on the main body frame 4 will not operate normally, or a situation such as a displacement of the initial position may occur, The initial operation of the effect member mounted on the main body frame 4 can be dealt with even when such a situation occurs by starting after the main body frame 4 is closed.

  In addition, after each of the effect members mounted on the main body frame 4 and the game board 5 is sequentially or simultaneously initialized, the initial operation of each effect member is not normally completed (each effect member The initial detection is performed again when there is an effect member that is not detected at the initial position at a predetermined time by the origin detection sensor that detects the initial position of the current position, or when there is an effect member that is not detected at the initial position at the predetermined time. When there is a production member that is not detected at the initial position even at a predetermined time after the operation or retry operation is performed), the production using the production member that has not been completed normally is executed during symbol variation. It is supposed to be restricted so as not to. Here, as described above, when the setting key switch 1311a is not set to ON when the power of the pachinko machine 1 is turned on and the setting value setting change or the setting value confirmation display is not performed, the pachinko machine Immediately after the machine 1 is turned on, the special symbol display on the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 can be displayed in a variable state (variable state), and the initial operation of the effect member is performed. . In this example, if the initial operation of the effect member under such circumstances is not completed normally, the player feels uncomfortable that the effect member remains stopped at a position different from the initial position during the special symbol variation display. Therefore, when the power of the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, the setting key switch 1311a is not turned on, and the setting value setting is changed and the setting value confirmation display is performed. If there is not, any effect member is detected at the initial position at a predetermined time after power-on of the pachinko machine 1 (time when the initial operation of each effect member is finished and is assumed to be located at the initial position). When it is not, an initial position error notification to the outside is performed by an image from the effect display device 1600, an output from a lamp, or a speaker.

  On the other hand, when the effect member is not detected at the initial position by the initial operation during the setting value setting change (change permission state) or the setting value confirmation display (confirmation display state), the normal setting change or confirmation display is performed. In order to avoid the hindrance to the work, even if the effect member remains stopped at a position different from the initial position, the initial position error notification is not performed. Then, after the change permission state and the confirmation display state are completed, an initial position error notification to the outside is performed by an image from the effect display device 1600, an output from the lamp, and the speaker. The initial position error notification is started after the end of the change permission state or the confirmation display state. However, the initial position error notification is a specification that starts in advance from the time when the effect member is not detected at the initial position by the initial operation. May be. In addition, at the time when the effect member is not detected at the initial position by the initial operation, notification of a mode that does not hinder normal setting change or confirmation display work among images from the effect display device 1600, lamps, and speakers ( For example, the specification may be executed in advance only for the lamp).

  As a modification of the above, when the setting key switch 1311a is set to ON and the pachinko machine 1 is turned on regardless of whether or not the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is operated, a special It is in a state in which it is not possible to display the symbols in a variable manner, and while preventing the progress of the game, the production members (for example, the production operation unit 160 and the plurality of rotary decoration bodies 3210) mounted on the main body frame 4 and the game board 5 While the period during which the initial operation is performed may be set, the setting value setting change or the setting value confirmation display may not be performed. In addition, when an operation unit different from the setting key switch 1311a, the RWM clear button 633z, and the power switch 630a is provided and the hall clerk turns the operation on, the time until the operation is turned off. , The special movement of the effect member mounted on the main body frame 4 and the game board 5 is performed while preventing the progress of the game after the hall clerk turns the operation ON, while the special symbol variation display is disabled. It may be a period of time. Even in such a case, after the hall clerk turns off the operation, even if a variation pattern in which an effect using the effect member is set is transmitted during the pattern change, the initial operation of the effect member is affected. Accordingly, the effect member can be moved from the initial position to the operation position based on the variation pattern, and information obtained from the effect contents can be prevented from being missed.

  As described above, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state that are the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, the volume output from the speaker, the light amount output from the light emitting member such as the lamp or the screen of the effect display device 1600 It is possible to adjust. More specifically, when the setting value is changed or the setting value is confirmed, the main control MPU starts the main control power-on process when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3. Prior to starting the setting change process in step S37 and the set value confirmation display process in step S28, the wait time waiting process in step S22 is performed. In this wait time waiting process, the process waits until the system that performs the drawing control of the peripheral control board 1510 starts (boots). In this embodiment, 10 seconds (s) is set as a standby time (boot timer) until booting. The peripheral control board 1510 (peripheral control MPU) performs an initialization process for starting (booting) a system that performs drawing control of the peripheral control board 1510 before the main control MPU completes the wait time standby process. It is completed, and various commands from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) can be received. Thus, at the start of the change permission state and the confirmation display state, the peripheral control MPU has already completed the initialization process for starting (booting) the system that performs the drawing control of the peripheral control board 1510. The operation of the production operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161) can be detected, and the volume output from the speaker and the amount of light output from the light emitting member such as the lamp or the screen of the production display device 1600 can be adjusted. It has become.

  In addition, regarding the volume output from the speaker and the amount of light output from the light emitting member such as the lamp or the screen of the effect display device 1600, the volume before the power is shut off when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at the timing t3. Information regarding the amount of light is not retained, and the initial state (for example, a state in which the volume and the amount of light have a median value) is restored. For this reason, the volume and light amount after power-on change to a state different from the volume and light amount adjusted before power-off.

  Further, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at timing t4, the change permission state and the confirmation display state are terminated, and after the change permission state and the confirmation display state are terminated, the special symbol display in the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 is completed. It has shifted to a variable state where it is possible to perform a variable display of symbols. That is, prior to the player being able to start playing in a variable state, the sound is output from a light output member such as a volume output from a speaker, a lamp, or a screen of the effect display device 1600. The amount of light to be adjusted can be adjusted. For example, as a variation pattern (variation pattern command) transmitted from the main control board 1310 to the peripheral control board 1510 after the end of the change permission state or the confirmation display state, a variation pattern in which a predetermined effect is set during symbol variation is used. In the case of transmission, a sound (game sound) is output from the speaker based on the information set for the effect during the design variation, or light is emitted from a light emitting member such as a lamp or the screen of the effect display device 1600. If such an effect is started before the adjustment of the light quantity and volume, the volume and light quantity are output in the initial state, and the player may feel uncomfortable. In this example, in this example, the player can start the game by adjusting the volume and the amount of light before the player can start the game in the variable state. In the meantime, the volume and light quantity can be changed from the initial state, and after the game is started by the player, the player can be prevented from feeling uncomfortable due to the volume and light quantity in the initial state.

  In this example, an image for adjustment on the effect display device 1600 by long-pressing the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161) (a volume gauge image representing a five-stage adjustment state depending on the time of long press, After displaying the light intensity gauge image), the volume and light intensity are adjusted step by step (1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → 5 → 1 →) each time the effect operation section 160 (press operation section 161) is further pressed. 2), and the volume and the amount of light can be determined by not operating the production operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161) for a predetermined time. In the changeable state, when the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161) is operated, a predetermined change sound is output from the speaker as the volume and light amount are changed. On the other hand, before the end of the change permission state or the confirmation display state, it is possible to change the volume and the amount of light when the presentation operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161) is operated. The change sound is not output. This is because it is assumed that the hole manager is changing the setting value or confirming the setting value in the change permission state or the confirmation display state, which is the period from timing t3 to timing t4. This is because the work efficiency of the hall manager is emphasized rather than the necessity of outputting a change sound notifying that the volume or the amount of light has been changed, and the occurrence of an event that hinders the work is suppressed. In addition, when the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161) is operated, the light amount is changed and light is output from a light emitting member such as a lamp or a screen of the effect display device 1600 with the changed light amount. Since it is not an event that hinders the work of the hall manager, it is not prohibited even in a change permission state or a confirmation display state.

  Further, in this example, in the variable display state, when an operation for changing the volume or the light amount is performed using the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161), the output is performed at the adjusted volume or light amount at that time. It reflects immediately. On the other hand, before the end of the change permission state or the confirmation display state, it is possible to perform an operation of changing the volume or the light amount using the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161), but at that time, The output is not reflected so as to be output with the adjusted volume and light quantity, but is reflected so that the output is performed with the adjusted volume and light quantity after the change permission state and the confirmation display state are finished. In other words, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state that are the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, as will be described in detail later, a warning notification is given to the outside so that a person other than the hall manager does not cheat. Although the output from the effect display device 1600 being executed as such a warning notice, the output from the lamp or speaker is not allowed to be the adjusted volume or light amount, and is set to a fixed volume or light amount. I am doing so. As a result, even in the change permission state or the confirmation display state, even when an operation for changing the volume or the light amount is performed using the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161), it is difficult to notice the warning alert being executed. Can be prevented and the fraud monitoring system can be prevented from weakening.

  As described above, in the change permission state and confirmation display state, warning notifications are executed to the outside so that non-hall managers do not cheat, but the details are changed as described later. Even after completion of the permission state or the confirmation display state, the warning notification can be extended and executed. Then, when the warning notification is extended and executed after the change permission state or the confirmation display state is ended, the volume or the sound volume can be set using the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161) even during the execution of the extended warning notification. It is possible to perform an operation to change the amount of light, but at that point in time, it is not reflected to output with the adjusted volume and light amount, and after adjustment of the extended warning notification, the adjusted volume and light amount This is reflected in the output. In other words, the warning display is extended and the output from the image, lamp, and speaker of the effect display device 1600 being executed is also set to a fixed volume and light amount, making it impossible to set the adjusted volume and light amount. . Thereby, similarly to the change permission state and the confirmation display state, when the warning notification is extended and executed after the change permission state or the confirmation display state is finished, the volume or the volume using the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161) is Even if an operation for changing the amount of light is performed, it is possible to prevent a situation in which it is difficult to notice the warning notice being extended and to prevent the fraud monitoring system from becoming weak.

  Further, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state, it is possible to perform an operation of changing the volume and the light amount using the effect operation unit 160 (press operation unit 161), and after the change permission state and the confirmation display state are finished. However, some of the multiple lamps are reflected at the adjusted volume and light amount when an operation to change the volume and light amount is performed. You may reflect so that it may output. For example, among the multiple lamps, the lamp used for warning alerts is reflected to output with the adjusted volume and light quantity to maintain the fraud monitoring system when the operation to change the volume and light quantity is performed. In this case, all or a part of the lamps that are not used for warning notification may be reflected so as to be output with the adjusted volume and light amount when an operation for changing the sound volume and light amount is performed.

[13-4. About fraud monitoring]
In the present embodiment, various frauds are monitored in the fraud detection process of step S112 described above. Specifically, various winning holes and gate portions (gates) provided in the game board 5 by changing the course of the game ball B flowing down the game area 5a formed in the game board 5 by bringing the magnet close to the pachinko machine 1 ) Is provided with a magnetic sensor 2470 for detecting fraudulent acts such as entering the ball, and the main control MPU determines the presence or absence of fraud based on the detection signal from the magnetic sensor 2470, and monitors the fraudulent acts by the magnet. The monitoring result is transmitted to the peripheral control MPU so that the peripheral control MPU performs fraud related error processing. In addition, by shaking or hitting the pachinko machine 1, the pachinko machine 1 is vibrated to change the course of the game ball B flowing down the game area 5 a formed in the game board 5 to change to the game board 5. The main control MPU determines the presence or absence of fraud based on the detection signal from the vibration sensor by providing a vibration sensor that detects fraud such as entering various winning holes and gates (gates) provided, A fraudulent act due to vibration is monitored, the monitoring result is transmitted to the peripheral control MPU, and the peripheral control MPU is caused to perform fraud related error processing. Regarding monitoring of these fraudulent activities, the normal state (the setting value setting change or the setting value confirmation display is not performed), the setting value setting change or the setting value confirmation display is performed, Thus, the monitoring mode is different.

  In this example, as a magnetic sensor 2470 for detecting fraudulent acts by a magnet, a place where magnetism is generated (whether it is a setting change board 1311 or a setting key switch 1311a located on the rear side of the game board 5 or the game board 5 One magnetic sensor capable of specifying whether the game area 5a is located in front of the game area 5a is provided. In a normal state, the magnetic sensor 2470 generates magnetism (magnetism due to unauthorized access) that should not occur in the area where the setting change board 1311 and the setting key switch 1311a are provided on the back side of the pachinko machine 1. It monitors whether it has occurred (whether the magnet is approaching), monitors fraudulent acts such as a setting change or confirmation display by a person other than the person who performs the setting change or confirmation display, and is located in front of the game area 5a. The game board is monitored by monitoring whether or not magnetism (magnetism due to unauthorized access) that should not be generated has occurred in the area (whether the magnet has approached), and changing the course of the game ball B flowing down the game area 5a 5 is monitored for illegal activities such as entering various winning awards and gates (gates). In addition, as an illegal act with respect to the back side of the pachinko machine 1 using a magnet, for example, a metal fraudulent instrument in the island facility where the pachinko machine 1 is installed (in the space where the back side of the pachinko machine 1 is exposed) The magnet and the metal fraud are made through a small gap between the pachinko machine 1 and the island facility or an opening that has destroyed a part of the pachinko machine 1 with a magnet that indirectly manipulates the metal fraudulent instrument. It is conceivable to operate the instrument and illegally access the setting change board 1311 and the setting key switch 1311a on the back side of the pachinko machine 1.

  In the fraud detection process in step S112, when a detection signal from the magnetic sensor 2470 is input, it is determined that a fraud using a magnet is being performed. If it is determined that an illegal act using a magnet is being performed, the main control MPU sends a security signal to the hall computer installed on the game hall side via the external terminal board 558 of the pachinko machine 1. Is output so that the hall clerk can grasp that the cheating is being carried out.

  Further, although not shown, the magnetic sensor 2470 of the present example is configured by a rectangular box-shaped sensor body, and is a first magnetic detection having a directivity that is highly sensitive in the vertical direction with respect to the side surface on one side. Magnetic detection in the region and magnetic detection in the second magnetic detection region having a directivity with high sensitivity in the vertical direction with respect to the other side surface, which is the opposite side, can be performed. ing. “High sensitivity in the vertical direction” means that the sensitivity is higher in the vertical direction than in the horizontal direction with respect to each side surface, and does not mean that there is no sensitivity in the horizontal direction. In other words, the magnetic detection area emitted from each side surface is a wide area surrounded by a sphere. The magnetic sensor 2470 is arranged such that the first magnetic detection region and the second magnetic detection region that are emitted from the side surface of the sensor body are spread in the front-rear direction in the front view of the pachinko machine 1, and one magnetic detection region Includes the surface side of the pachinko machine 1, and the magnetic detection area is a winning port such as the first starting port 2002, the second starting port 2004, the normal winning port 2003, the big winning port 2005, etc. on the surface side of the pachinko machine 1, and others. It is possible to monitor a plurality of main parts of the spherical flow path, and the other magnetic detection area includes the back side of the pachinko machine 1, and the setting change board 1311 and the setting key switch 1311a on the back side of the pachinko machine 1. The area provided with can be monitored. With such a configuration, it is possible to monitor whether the magnet has approached the area where the setting change board 1311 and the setting key switch 1311a are provided or whether the magnet has approached the area in front of the game area 5a. .

  Further, in this example, as the vibration sensor 3005 for detecting an illegal act due to vibration, vibration capable of detecting the occurrence of vibration in the vicinity of the sorting piece 2415 inside the special winning opening 2005 provided in the game board 5. A sensor 3004 is provided. In addition, during the big hit game during normal times, the fraudulent act is monitored using the vibration sensor 3005, and other than the big hit game, the fraudulent act is not monitored using the vibration sensor 3005. This is because, in the big hit game, the game balls B that are received in the big prize opening 2005 by the distribution piece 2415 and circulate inside are distributed to either the first receiving port 2007 or the second receiving port 2008. When vibration is applied to the sorting piece 2415, it becomes possible to change the course of the game ball B inside the special winning opening 2005 and to allow the game ball B to enter the second receiving port 2008. This is to prevent such fraud. In other words, during the big hit game during normal times, the vibration sensor 3005 applies vibration that should not occur (vibration due to unauthorized access) to the periphery of the distribution piece 2415 inside the big prize opening 2005. It monitors whether or not the game ball B has changed the course of the game ball B inside the special winning opening 2005 and causes the game ball B to enter the second receiving port 2008.

  Note that in the fraud detection process of step S112, when a detection signal is input from the vibration sensor 3005, an improper act due to vibration is performed around the distribution piece 2415 inside the big prize opening 2005. Deciding. And when it is judged that fraudulent acts due to vibration are performed around the distribution piece 2415 inside the prize winning opening 2005, it is installed on the game hall side via the external terminal board 558 of the pachinko machine 1. The main control MPU outputs a security signal to the hall computer so that the hall clerk can grasp that the fraudulent act is being performed.

  Also, the security signal that is output when it is determined that an illegal act due to vibration is being performed is the same signal as the security signal that is output when it is determined that an illegal act using a magnet is being performed. . However, when a security signal is output because it is determined that a fraudulent act is caused by vibration, and when a security signal is output when it is determined that a fraudulent act using a magnet is being performed, The notification mode when external notification is performed in fraud-related error processing controlled by the control MPU is different. That is, when it is determined that a fraudulent act due to vibration is being performed and a security signal is output, in an aspect corresponding to the fraudulent act due to vibration, from the image, lamp, or speaker of the effect display device 1600 When a security signal is output when it is determined that an illegal act using a magnet is being performed while an output is notified, an effect display is performed in a manner corresponding to an illegal act using a magnet. The notification by the image from the apparatus 1600, the output from the lamp, or the speaker is performed, so that it is possible to distinguish which fraud is being performed.

  Next, monitoring of fraudulent behavior during setting value setting change or setting value confirmation display will be described with reference to FIGS. 151 and 152. FIG. FIG. 151 is a time chart showing a monitoring state of fraud during the setting value setting change, and FIG. 152 is a time chart showing a fraud monitoring state during the confirmation display of the setting value.

  As shown in FIG. 151, in the change permission state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, monitoring of fraud using the magnetic sensor 2470 is not performed. This is because, in the change permission state, an authorized operator who changes the setting value operates the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 that operates as a function of the setting key switch 1311a and the setting switching button. This is because there is no room for an unauthorized person using a magnet except for an authorized worker who changes the setting. In addition, when a setting change is made to a set value, even if a legitimate worker who changes the setting has something that can generate magnetism, it is prevented from being detected as an illegal act using a magnet. Inhibition of regular setting change work can be suppressed.

  Further, in the change permission state that is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, the fraud monitoring using the vibration sensor 3005 is not performed. This is because, in the change-permitted state, an authorized operator who changes the setting value operates the RWM clear button 633z of the payout control board 633 that operates as a function of the setting key switch 1311a and the setting switching button, and the setting is performed. This is because there is no room for unauthorized conduct by vibration other than a regular worker who makes changes. In addition, even when a regular operator who changes the setting value makes a vibration when the setting value is changed, it is prevented from being detected as a fraudulent act due to vibration. Inhibition can be suppressed.

  In this example, the setting key switch 1311a is set to ON, and the power switch 630a is operated to operate the power switch 630a while operating the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z. The state in which the change can be performed (change permission state) is entered, but when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3, that is, when the change permission state is started, via the external terminal plate 558 of the pachinko machine 1 The main control MPU outputs a security signal to the hall computer installed on the gaming hall side. In addition to this, even when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at the timing t4, that is, when the change permission state is terminated, the hall computer installed on the game hall side via the external terminal board 558 of the pachinko machine 1 is used. On the other hand, the main control MPU outputs a security signal. That is, when the setting value is changed, the security signal is output twice to the hall computer after the pachinko machine 1 is turned on. This security signal is detected when a detection signal from the magnetic sensor 2470 is input in a state in which the magnetic sensor 2470 is used to monitor a fraudulent act by a magnet, In the state where the vibration sensor 3005 is used to monitor a fraudulent act due to vibration, when a detection signal from the vibration sensor 3005 is input and it is determined that a fraudulent act due to vibration is being performed, It is the same signal as the output signal. However, the change permission state, which is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, is a state in which monitoring of cheating using the magnetic sensor 2470 and monitoring of cheating using the vibration sensor 3005 are not performed. Even if the monitoring of such illegal activities is not performed, the security signal is output to the hall computer to warn the pachinko machine 1 to be monitored through the hall computer. The hall clerk can be informed through the hall computer that the setting has been changed. That is, the hall clerk can monitor, through the hall computer, that the setting value has not been changed by a person who performs fraud through the hall computer. In addition, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at the timing t4, the main control MPU outputs a second security signal, and the setting change of the setting value is completed by the second security signal. Can be grasped by the hall clerk through the hall computer.

  The security signal only needs to be output to the hall computer for a time that can be recognized by the hall computer, and the time from timing t3 to timing t3 ′ is short (for example, 1 second or less). It may be long time (for example, 10 seconds or more). However, if the output time of the security signal is long, the first security signal output when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3, that is, when the change permission state is started, There is a possibility that the setting key switch 1311a is not set at the timing t4 when the setting key is turned off, that is, when the change permission state is ended. That is, there is a possibility that the setting key switch 1311a is turned off at the timing t4 before the timing t3 'at which the first security signal output ends. As described above, when the output of the first security signal is not completed when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at the timing t4, that is, when the change permission state is finished, the first security signal is not finished. After the output of the signal is completed, a second security signal is output after a predetermined interval time (for example, 1 second). That is, the output of the second security signal is delayed until the output of the first security signal is completed. As a result, even if the output of the first security signal is not completed when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at the timing t4, that is, when the change permission state is finished, the hall computer is not finished. The security signal can be reliably output twice.

  As another example of the case where the predetermined interval period is not provided, the following may be performed. That is, when the output of the first security signal is not completed when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at the timing t4, that is, when the change permission state is terminated, a new security signal is generated from that time. (The timer for counting the signal output time is set again) and the first security signal and the second security signal may be output in a continuous manner. In this case, the security signal is output over a long period exceeding a predetermined maximum output time (the output time of the first security signal), and the set value is the same as when the second security signal is output. It is possible for the hall clerk to know through the output of a security signal over a long period that the setting change has been completed. If it is not necessary for the hall clerk to know through the hall computer that the setting change has been completed using the security signal output mode, depending on the game hall environment, etc., based on the operation of a predetermined changeover switch, etc. It may be possible to cancel without outputting the second security signal itself.

  As shown in FIG. 152, in the confirmation display state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, monitoring of fraud using the magnetic sensor 2470 is not performed as in the change permission state. This is because, in the confirmation display state, a regular operator who performs confirmation display of the set value operates the setting key switch 1311a, and an unauthorized act using a magnet is performed by a person other than the regular worker who performs confirmation display of the setting value. This is because there is no room to perform. In addition, when performing a confirmation display of the set value, even if an authorized worker performing the confirmation display has something that can generate magnetism, it is prevented from being detected as an illegal act using a magnet. Inhibition of regular confirmation display work can be suppressed.

  In addition, in the confirmation display state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4, monitoring of fraud using the vibration sensor 3005 is not performed as in the change permission state. This is because, in the confirmation display state, a regular operator who performs confirmation display of the set value operates the setting key switch 1311a, and there is a room for a person other than the regular worker who performs the confirmation display to perform fraud due to vibration. This is because there is not. In addition, even when a regular operator who performs confirmation display of the set value adds vibration, it is prevented from being detected as an illegal act due to vibration, and Inhibition can be suppressed.

  Further, in this example, the setting key switch 1311a is set to ON, the power switch 630a is operated without operating the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z, and the pachinko machine 1 is turned on. Although the confirmation display can be performed (confirmation display state), the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at the timing t3, that is, when the confirmation display state is started, the external terminal plate 558 of the pachinko machine 1 is connected. The main control MPU outputs a security signal to the hall computer installed on the game hall side. On the other hand, at the end of the change permission state, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at the timing t4, the main computer installed on the game hall side via the external terminal board 558 of the pachinko machine 1 While the control MPU outputs a security signal, at the end of the confirmation display state, when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF at the timing t4, the control MPU outputs the security signal to the game hall side via the external terminal board 558 of the pachinko machine 1. The main control MPU does not output a security signal to the installed hall computer. That is, when the setting value is changed, the security signal is output twice to the hall computer, whereas when the setting value is displayed for confirmation, the security signal is set to 1 for the hall computer. Will be output only once. As a result, the confirmation display state that is the period from timing t3 to timing t4 is a state in which monitoring of cheating using the magnetic sensor 2470 or monitoring of cheating using the vibration sensor 3005 is not performed. Yes, even though the monitoring of such fraudulent activity is not being executed, a security signal is output to the hall computer to warn the monitoring of the pachinko machine 1 through the hall computer and set it properly The hall clerk can be made aware through the hall computer that the value is being displayed. That is, the hall clerk can monitor through the hall computer that the setting value confirmation display is not performed by a person who performs an illegal act through the hall computer. Note that when the setting key switch 1311a is set to OFF at the timing t4, the main control MPU does not output the second security signal unlike the change permission state. It is possible to distinguish which one of the confirmation display was performed.

  In addition, when a security signal is output to the hall computer because it is determined that an illegal act due to a magnet or vibration is being performed, the peripheral control is performed based on the transmission of the monitoring result from the main control MPU to the peripheral control MPU. As an external notification in an error-related process controlled by the MPU, notification is performed by an output from the effect display device 1600, an output from a lamp, or a speaker, whereas a setting value setting change (change permission state) or a setting value When a security signal is output to the hall computer at the time of setting confirmation (confirmation display state), no information related to the monitoring result is transmitted to the peripheral control MPU, and errors related to control by the peripheral control MPU As an external notification in the process, all notifications by an image from the effect display device 1600, an output from a lamp, and a speaker are performed. It is as in no. This also prevents the normal setting change and confirmation display work from being hindered.

  As a modification of the above, when the setting key switch 1311a is set to ON and the pachinko machine 1 is turned on regardless of whether or not the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is operated, Until the key switch 1311a is set to the setting key OFF, it is a period in which the monitoring of the fraud using the magnetic sensor 2470 and the vibration sensor 3005 is not performed, while the setting value setting change and the setting value confirmation display are not performed. You may do it. Further, when an operation unit different from the setting key switch 1311a, the RWM clear button 633z, and the power switch 630a is provided and the hall clerk turns on the operation of the other operation unit, the magnetic sensor 2470 and the vibration sensor 3005 are provided. It is good also as a period which does not perform the monitoring of the fraudulent act using. Even in such a case, even when a regular worker who performs the inspection work approaches or vibrates the magnet when performing the inspection work of the pachinko machine 1, it is detected as an illegal act due to the magnet or vibration. Can be prevented and inhibition of regular inspection work can be suppressed. In addition, at least at the start of a period during which fraud monitoring using the magnetic sensor 2470 or the vibration sensor 3005 is not performed, a security signal is output to the hall computer, similar to the start of the change permission state or the confirmation display state. Thus, the monitoring to the pachinko machine 1 is warned through the hall computer, and the hall clerk can be informed through the hall computer that the inspection work is being carried out normally.

  In this example, as the magnetic sensor 2470 for detecting an illegal act by a magnet, a place where magnetism is generated (whether it is around the setting change board 1311 or the setting key switch 1311a located on the rear side of the game board 5 or the game board) 1 is provided in front of the game area 5a), but a plurality of magnetic sensors are provided, for example, on the front side of the game board 5. The magnetic sensors may be able to detect the occurrence of magnetism in the vicinity of the setting change board 1311 and the setting key switch 1311a located in front of the game area 5a located and on the rear side of the game board 5. In such a configuration, as in the configuration of the single magnetic sensor 2470 described above, in the normal state, monitoring of fraud using a plurality of magnetic sensors is performed, whereas the change permission state and the confirmation display state However, in the change permission state or the confirmation display state, some of the magnetic sensors (for example, setting change) may not be executed. It is also possible to perform monitoring of fraud using only the magnetic sensor provided around the substrate 1311 and the setting key switch 1311a.

  Similarly, in this example, it is possible to detect the occurrence of vibration in the vicinity of the sorting piece 2415 inside the special prize opening 2005 provided in the game board 5 as the vibration sensor 3005 that detects fraud by vibration. Although one vibration sensor is provided, a plurality of vibration sensors are provided. For example, in addition to the periphery of the distribution piece 2415 in the big prize opening 2005, the big prize opening located on the front side of the game board 5 Each vibration sensor may be able to detect the occurrence of vibration also in the vicinity of the entrance other than 2005, or in the vicinity of the setting change board 13111 or the setting key switch 1311a located on the rear side of the game board 5. In such a configuration, in a normal time, monitoring of fraudulent activity using a plurality of vibration sensors is executed (however, with respect to the vibration sensors provided around the sorting piece 2415 inside the special prize opening 2005, In the change permission state and the confirmation display state, it may be possible not to execute the fraud monitoring using a plurality of vibration sensors, but in the change permission state and the confirmation display state, You may make it perform monitoring of fraud using only some vibration sensors (for example, the vibration sensor provided in the periphery of the setting change board | substrate 1311 or the setting key switch 1311a) among several vibration sensors.

  In addition, fraudulent acts due to magnets or vibration may be detected during security signal transmission immediately after the change permission state or confirmation display state ends (immediately after the start of fraud monitoring). There is concern over the occurrence of a situation in which an important security signal based on the detection of an action cannot be output and the fraud monitoring system is weakened. In order to prevent such a situation, the following may be performed. In other words, the security signal output timing based on the detection of fraud is delayed so that the second security signal output period in the change permission state or the first security signal output period in the confirmation display state elapses. It can be exemplified that the output timings of security signals based on detection of fraud are not overlapped. Specifically, although monitoring of fraud is immediately started after the change permission state or the confirmation display state ends, the second security signal output period in the change permission state or the first security signal in the confirmation display state If a trigger for detecting a new security signal (detection of fraud) occurs within the output period of, the output of the security signal that was output in advance without discarding the output of the new security signal It is also possible to store and hold the output information of a new security signal until the process is completed, and to output a new security signal with a delay from the original output timing. According to such an embodiment, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of a situation in which the output of the security signal based on the detection of the original fraud is not discarded and the fraud monitoring system is weakened. As another example, the start time of fraud monitoring itself may be extended until the second security signal output period in the change-permitted state or the first security signal output period in the confirmation display state ends. It is good. Even in such an embodiment, the output of the security signal based on the detection of the original fraud is not discarded, and the occurrence of a situation where the fraud monitoring system is weakened can be suppressed.

[14. About command transmission processing]
As described above, the main control configuration of the pachinko machine 1 includes the main control board 1310 and the peripheral control board 1510 attached to the game board 5, and the payout control board 633 attached to the main body frame 4. Each control is shared. Of these, the main control board 1310 controls game operations (game progress), while the peripheral control board 1510 controls various effects during the game based on commands from the main control board 1310. Specifically, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 is a predetermined storage area (stores commands in the main control built-in RAM) at various times using information related to control of game effects and information related to the state of the pachinko machine 1 as various commands. Information in the pachinko machine 1 and information on the state of the pachinko machine 1 on the peripheral control board 1510 side by sequentially transmitting the set commands to the peripheral control board 1510. I can grasp it. However, when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, the main control built-in RAM is used as various commands for information relating to the control of the game effect and the state of the pachinko machine 1 when performing setting change of the set value and confirmation display of the set value. While the change permission state or confirmation display state is being executed, only some commands are immediately transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 while the remaining commands are in the change permission state or confirmation display state. After completion, the data is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510.

  First, the command transmission timing when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 153 (A) is a time chart showing command transmission timing when the pachinko machine 1 is normally turned on (when setting value setting change or setting value confirmation display is not performed). These are the time charts which show the transmission timing of the command in the case of performing the setting change of the set value and the confirmation display of the set value when the power of the pachinko machine 1 is turned on. In this example, at the start of the change permission state or the confirmation display state, at least the switch input process of step S104 in the main control side timer interrupt process is started, and the game ball B is placed in various winning openings and the gate unit 2003. It is described that the main control MPU inputs detection signals from the detection sensors corresponding to each when entering the ball.

  As shown in FIG. 153, when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on at timing t3, the main control MPU starts the main control side power-on process shown in FIG. Then, during the period from the timing t3 to the timing ty, as described in [Pachinko machine behavior at power-on] described above, the processing of steps S10 to S24 of the main control-side power-on processing is executed. When ty arrives, it is determined which combination is the value of the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG and the value of the setting key ON flag CS-FLG (steps S25 to S27). In step S25, when the main control MPU determines that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is the value 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is the value 1, the predetermined set value change permission condition is satisfied. If it is established, the process shifts to the setting change process in step S37 to enter the setting permission state. If the main control MPU determines in step S26 that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG has a value of 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG has a value of 0, the main control built-in RAM in step S38. After the initialization, the variable state is made possible. In step S27, when the main control MPU determines that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG has a value of 0 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG has a value of 1, the main control MPU permits a preset set value display. When the condition is satisfied, the process proceeds to the set value confirmation display process in step S28 to enter the confirmation display state. In step S27, when the main control MPU determines that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG has a value 0 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG has a value 0, the main control built-in RAM in step S38. The variable state is made possible without initializing the. As described above, the variable state is a function display by starting the main control side timer interrupt process (special symbol and special electric accessory control process in step S114) by executing the interrupt permission setting in step S52. This is a state in which the special symbol display on the special symbol display of the unit 1400 can be performed.

  As described above, the peripheral control board 1510 (peripheral control MPU) is activated by a system that performs drawing control of the peripheral control board 1510 before the timing ty when the main control MPU completes the wait time standby process. Since the initialization process for performing (booting) has been completed, various commands from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) can be received after the timing ty.

  As shown in FIG. 153 (A), the setting key switch 1311a is not turned ON at the timing t3, and the setting value setting change and the setting value confirmation display are not performed assuming that the power is normally turned on. In this case, if the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is operated at the timing t3, the main control built-in RAM is initialized from the timing ty to the variable state after the initialization. On the other hand, if the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is not operated at the timing t3, the variable control state is made from the timing ty without initializing the main control built-in RAM in step S38. In such a variable state, the main control MPU can set information relating to control of game effects and information relating to the state of the pachinko machine 1 as various commands in the command buffer of the main control built-in RAM. As soon as is set, it is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510.

  For example, when the main body frame 4 is opened at the timing ty, the main control MPU sets a door opening command for specifying that the main body frame 4 is opened in the command buffer, and opens the door. As soon as the hour command is set, it is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510. Then, the peripheral control MPU receives the door opening command from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU), and in the period until the timing t5 when the main body frame 4 is closed arrives, the effect display device A door opening notification for notifying that the main body frame 4 is open is executed by an image from 1600, a lamp, and a speaker. As the notification when the door is opened, a sound that repeats “door is open”, a message “door is open!”, And lamp emission with higher brightness than normal are executed. Thus, when the main body frame 4 is opened, the hall manager can immediately know that the main body frame 4 is opened by performing a notification when the door is opened toward the outside. While 4 is open, it is possible to strengthen the monitoring system so that no one other than the hall manager will engage in fraud.

  As shown in FIG. 153 (B), when the setting key switch 1311a is turned on at the timing t3, and the setting value setting change or the setting value confirmation display is performed, the RWM is also performed at the timing t3. When the pressing operation unit of the clear button 633z is operated, a change permission state in which the setting value can be changed from the timing ty is set, while the RWM clear button 633z is pressed at the timing t3. If the unit is not operated, a confirmation display state in which the confirmation display of the set value can be performed from the point of time ty. In the change-permitted state, the change-permitted state ends at the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF, and changes from the timing t4 after the initialization of the main control built-in RAM in step S38. Make it possible. On the other hand, in the confirmation display state, the confirmation display state is ended at the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned off, and the main control built-in RAM in step S38 is not initialized from the timing t4. Make it possible.

  In the change permission state and the confirmation display state described above, the main control MPU sets information related to control of game effects and information related to the state of the pachinko machine 1 as various commands in a predetermined storage area (command buffer) of the main control built-in RAM. The storage area of the main control built-in RAM to be set differs depending on the type of the command. Specifically, at least in the change permission state and the confirmation display state, as the storage area (command buffer) of the main control built-in RAM, the first storage area (first command buffer) and the second storage area (second command buffer) When a command is set in the first command buffer, the command is immediately transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510. On the other hand, when a command is set in the second command buffer, the set command is The command set in the second command buffer is held until the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF, without being immediately transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510. At the time t4, the second command buffer is held. Send the command set to the peripheral control board 1510 . That is, at least in the change permission state or the confirmation display state, a command that needs to be immediately transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 is set in the first command buffer, while the change permission state or the like is set in the second command buffer at timing t4. A command that needs to be transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 after the confirmation display state is completed is set.

  Except for the change permission state and the confirmation display state, the main control MPU sets information related to control of game effects and information related to the state of the pachinko machine 1 as various commands in the first command buffer, and stores them in the first command buffer. When a command is set, the command is immediately transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510. That is, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state, the command is set in either the first command buffer or the second command buffer, but all commands are changed except for the change permission state and the confirmation display state. A command is set only in the first command buffer so that it is immediately transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510. However, except for the change permission state and the confirmation display state, the first command buffer and the second command buffer are not divided, and if a command is set in the undivided command buffer, the command is immediately It may be transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510.

  First, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state, as a command set in the second command buffer, as a command related to fraud monitoring, a command at the time of opening the door for specifying that the main body frame 4 is open, and various winning awards When the game ball B enters the gate unit 2003 (first start port 2002, second start port 2004, grand prize winning port 2005, etc.), the detection itself (abnormal pitch) ) Command for abnormal entry to specify that there was. Specifically, the door opening command is set in the second command buffer when the body frame 4 is open at the timing ty, which is the start time of the change permission state or the confirmation display state, and the second command When the door opening command is set in the buffer, the door opening command set in the second command buffer is held until the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF, and at the timing t4. The door opening time command set in the second command buffer is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510. The abnormal entry command is set in the second command buffer when the game ball B is detected (abnormal entry) in the change permission state or the confirmation display state from the timing ty to the timing t4. When the abnormal entry command is set in the second command buffer, the abnormal entry command set in the second command buffer is held until the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF. At the timing t4, the abnormal entry command set in the second command buffer is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510.

  Then, the peripheral control MPU receives the door opening command from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing t4, so that the timing t5 that is the timing for closing the main body frame 4 arrives. Performs notification at the time of door opening that notifies that the main body frame 4 is opened by an output from the effect display device 1600, a lamp, or a speaker. As the notification when the door is opened, a sound that repeats “door is open”, a message “door is open!”, And lamp emission with higher brightness than normal are executed. In addition, the peripheral control MPU receives an abnormal ball entry command from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing t4, so that images, lamps, and speakers of the effect display device 1600 are displayed over a predetermined period from the timing t4. In response to the output from, a notification at the time of abnormal entry is executed for notifying that there has been an abnormal entry at various winning openings and the gate unit 2003. As this abnormal entry notification, a voice that repeats “abnormal entry”, a message display “abnormal entry is present!”, And lamp emission with higher brightness than normal are executed. Thus, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state, it is monitored whether or not the main body frame 4 is opened, and whether or not there are abnormal balls in the various winning entrances and the gate unit 2003, and the change permission state and the confirmation are confirmed. After the display state is finished, notification to the outside when the door is opened or abnormal entry is performed, so that the main body frame 4 is opened, or abnormal entry is made at various winning openings or the gate unit 2003. The hall manager can grasp what happened. In addition, after the change permission state and the confirmation display state are finished, it is possible to simultaneously execute a notification at the time of door opening and an abnormal entry at the time of an abnormal entry. Notification) may be executed with priority.

  As described above, commands related to fraud monitoring such as a door opening command and an abnormal winning command are set in the second command buffer in the change permission state or the confirmation display state, and the set command is immediately stored in the peripheral control board 1510. The command set in the second command buffer is held until the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF without transmission, and the command set in the second command buffer is The data is transmitted to the control board 1510. As a result, when changing the set value or displaying the confirmation of the set value, it is possible to prevent the notification at the time of opening the door or the notification at the time of abnormal entry due to unauthorized detection unintended by the hall manager. Can be inhibited.

  On the other hand, in the change permission state or the confirmation display state, the command set in the first command buffer includes a setting change command for specifying that the change permission state is started or a confirmation display state start as a command related to the setting Setting confirmation command that identifies the time, setting change completion command that identifies when the change permission state ends, setting value confirmation display completion command that identifies when the confirmation display state ends . Specifically, the setting change command is set in the first command buffer at the timing ty when the change permission state starts, and the setting confirmation command is set at the timing ty when the confirmation display state starts. The first command buffer is set, and any command is sent to the peripheral control board 1510 immediately after being set. Similarly, the setting change completion command is set in the first command buffer at the timing t4 when the change permission state ends, and the set value confirmation display completion command at the timing t4 when the confirmation display state ends. At this point, the command is set in the first command buffer, and any command is sent to the peripheral control board 1510 as soon as it is set.

  The peripheral control MPU receives the setting change command and the setting confirmation command from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing ty until the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF arrives. During the period, warning notification corresponding to the type of command is executed by the output of the effect display device 1600, the lamp, and the speaker. That is, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state that are the period from the timing ty to the timing t4, the warning notification corresponding to the type of command is executed by the output of the effect display device 1600, the lamp, and the speaker. . The warning notification corresponding to the setting change command includes a voice that repeats “setting is being changed”, a message “setting is being changed!”, And lamp emission in the color corresponding to the setting change. It is said. In addition, the warning notification corresponding to the setting confirmation command includes the sound “Setting confirmation in progress”, the message “Setting confirmation in progress!”, And the lamp emission in the color corresponding to the setting value confirmation (setting value). The light emission mode is different from the lamp light emission with the corresponding color during the setting change. In this way, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state, the hall manager indicates that it is possible to perform setting change of the set value and confirmation display of the set value by executing a warning notification to the outside. The monitoring system can be immediately grasped, and the monitoring system can be strengthened so that only the hall manager can perform an illegal act in the change permission state or the confirmation display state.

  As described above, commands related to settings such as the setting change command and the setting confirmation command are set in the first command buffer at the timing ty, which is the start time of the change permission state and the confirmation display state, and the set command is Immediately after transmission to the peripheral control board 1510. In the change permission state and the confirmation display state, even when the main body frame 4 is open or when there is an abnormal ball entry in various winning openings or the gate part 2003, the notification is made when the door is opened until after the change permission state or the confirmation display state ends. Because it delays the execution of notifications at the time of abnormal entry and abnormal entry, it is not a normal fraud monitoring system. However, setting change commands, setting confirmation commands, etc. precede the commands set in the second command buffer. By sending a command (special command for warning) related to the setting to the peripheral control board 1510, the monitoring system will be strengthened so that no unauthorized person can perform an illegal act even in a change permission state or a confirmation display state. be able to.

  Further, when the peripheral control MPU receives a setting change command or a setting confirmation command from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing ty, the peripheral control MPU executes a warning notification corresponding to the type of the command. In the change-permitted state, the setting value can be changed. Compared with the confirmation display state, a monitoring system is in place to prevent unauthorized changes by other than the hall administrator. However, by executing a warning notification corresponding to the type of command, the hall manager can accurately determine whether or not the monitoring system needs to be strengthened.

  In addition, when the peripheral control MPU receives a door opening command or abnormal entry command from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing t4, the peripheral control MPU performs door opening notification or abnormal entry notification. However, in these notifications, not only a predetermined message content is notified by an image from the effect display device 1600, an output from the lamp, and a speaker, but also a warning sound such as “BeeBee” is added to the sound from the speaker. Output (“Door is open, BB, Door is open,...”) Is executed with a combination of “message + warning sound”. On the other hand, when a setting change command or a setting confirmation command is received from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing ty, a warning notification corresponding to the type of command is executed. In the notification, a predetermined message content is notified by an output from the effect display device 1600, a lamp, and a speaker, but the sound output from the speaker is executed only by voice without outputting a warning sound. ing. As a result, even when a warning effect corresponding to the type of command is executed when setting value setting change or setting value confirmation display is performed, it is directed to the outside as compared to a door opening notification or abnormal entry notification. Appeal can be suppressed and inhibition of regular work can be suppressed.

[14-1. Game information command transmission timing]
In the above-described embodiment, when the confirmation display of the set value is performed when the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, the process of steps S29 to S36 is performed after the set value confirmation display process of step S28. That is, at the end of the confirmation display state (at the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF), in step S34, various information is read from the game backup information, and game information commands corresponding to the various information are incorporated in the main control. By setting the RAM in a predetermined storage area (command buffer) and sequentially transmitting the set game information commands to the peripheral control board 1510, the peripheral control board 1510 also grasps information related to the game before the power is shut off. be able to. Thereby, after the confirmation display state is finished, the peripheral control board 1510 shows the current gaming state, the change display of the special symbol that is interrupted when the power is shut off, the number of holdings stored when the power is shut off, and the like. As the peripheral control MPU recognizes the peripheral control MPU, the peripheral control MPU restores the effect produced by the output from the image, the lamp, and the speaker of the effect display device 1600. The display can be resumed, and the display of the stored number of holds when the power is turned off can be resumed.

  In this regard, for the game information command, the second command buffer is not at the end of the confirmation display state (at time t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned off) but at the start of the confirmation display state (at time ty). When the game information command is set in the second command buffer, the game information command set in the second command buffer is held until the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF. The game information command set in the second command buffer may be transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 at time t4. The set timing and transmission timing of the game information command when such game backup information is transmitted as a game information command will be described with reference to FIGS. 154 and 155. FIG. 154 is a flowchart illustrating a modification of the main control side power-on process. FIG. 155 (A) is a time chart showing the transmission timing of the game information command when the pachinko machine 1 is normally turned on (when the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z and the setting key switch 1311a are not operated). FIG. 155 (B) is a time chart showing the transmission timing of the game information command when the set value confirmation display is performed when the pachinko machine 1 is powered on.

  In this example, the case where the push operation unit of the RWM clear button 633z is not operated when the power of the pachinko machine 1 is turned on and the game backup information is transmitted as a game information command has been described. When initializing the main control built-in RAM or changing the setting value by operating the pressing operation part of the RWM clear button 633z when the power is turned on, in step S38, the entire area of the main control built-in RAM is specified. Since it is cleared except for the area, game backup information is lost, and game backup information is not transmitted as a game information command.

  As shown in FIG. 154, in the main control power-on process of this example, the main control MPU determines that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is 1 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is set in step S26. When it is determined that the value is not 0, first, the processes of steps S29 to S36 are performed. Among the processes of steps S29 to S36, in step 32, various information is read from the game backup information, and game information commands corresponding to the various information are set in a predetermined storage area (command buffer) of the main control built-in RAM. Yes. Then, following the processing of steps S29 to S36, it is determined whether or not the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is 0 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is 1 (step S27). In the determination in step S27, the main control MPU determines that the predetermined set value display permission condition is satisfied, assuming that the RAM clear notification flag RCL-FLG is 0 and the setting key ON flag CS-FLG is 1. If it is determined that there is, the set value confirmation display process is performed (step S28). That is, the processing of step S32 is performed before the setting value confirmation display processing of step S28 is performed, various information is read from the game backup information, and game information commands corresponding to the various information are stored in a predetermined storage area of the main control built-in RAM. (Command buffer) is set. In addition, when the processing of steps S29 to S36 is performed after the setting value confirmation display processing of step S28, the time for calculating the checksum in step S29, or the checksum value (sum value) in step S30. The restart of the game will be delayed by the amount of time to determine whether or not it matches the stored checksum value (sum value) in the main control side power-off process (power-off). By performing the processing of steps S29 to S36 before performing the set value confirmation display processing of step S28, the time until the game is resumed after performing the setting value confirmation display processing of step S28 is shortened. Will be able to.

  As shown in FIG. 155 (A), when the power is normally turned on, that is, when the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z and the setting key switch 1311a are not operated at the timing t3, the timing ty is changed. From the point in time, the main control built-in RAM in step S38 is made variable without being initialized. At timing ty, which is the start of such a variable state, the main control MPU sets the game backup information as a game information command in a predetermined storage area of the main control built-in RAM, and immediately after setting the game information command. It is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510. As a result, the peripheral control MPU quickly restores the effect (the output from the effect display device 1600, the image from the lamp, and the speaker) at the time of timing ty, which is the start of the variable state. be able to.

  When the peripheral control MPU receives a game information command from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing ty, the peripheral control MPU has a production member (for example, production operation) mounted on the main body frame 4 or the game board 5. The initial operation of the unit 160 and the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210) is performed. That is, from the point of time ty, which is the start of the changeable state, the initial operation of the effect members (for example, the effect operation unit 160 and the plurality of rotating decoration bodies 3210) mounted on the main body frame 4 and the game board 5 is performed. Has been done. Each such production member is a member that can operate between an initial position and an operation position. In the initial operation of the production member, the production member normally operates from the initial position toward the operation position. Such as confirmation, and accurate alignment is performed so that the production member waits at the initial position. Thereby, even if the production member is at a position deviated from the initial position at the timing ty that is the start of the variable state, the production member can be returned to the initial position by performing the initial operation. If the production member does not return to the initial position in one initial operation, the production member waits at a position shifted from the initial position by repeating the control for returning the production member to the initial position several times. Can be prevented. Then, after the initial operation of the effect member is finished, the effect using the effect member can be executed. For example, as a variation pattern command transmitted from the main control board 1310 to the peripheral control board 1510, when a variation pattern in which an effect using an effect member is set during the pattern variation is transmitted, a predetermined pattern variation At this timing, the production member is moved from the initial position to the operating position.

  As shown in FIG. 155 (B), when the set value confirmation display is performed, that is, the setting key switch 1311a is turned on at the timing t3, and the pressing operation portion of the RWM clear button 633z is operated. If there is not, a confirmation display state in which a confirmation display of the set value can be performed is made from the timing ty. In the confirmation display state, the confirmation display state is terminated at the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF, and the main control built-in RAM in step S38 is not initialized from the timing t4. Make it possible. In such a case, the main control MPU sets the game backup information as a game information command in the second command buffer at the timing ty, which is the start of the confirmation display state, and stores the game information command in the second command buffer. Is set, the game information command set is not immediately transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510, but the game set in the second command buffer until the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF arrives. The information command is held, and the game information command set in the second command buffer is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 at timing t4. As a result, the peripheral control MPU can restore the effect (the output from the effect display device 1600, the output from the lamp, and the speaker) at the time of timing ty, which is the start time of the variable state. it can.

  As described above, the game information command is set in the second command buffer at the timing ty, which is the start of the confirmation display state, and the set game information command is not immediately transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510. The game information command set in the second command buffer is held until the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF, and the game information command set in the second command buffer is peripherally controlled at the timing t4. The data is transmitted to the substrate 1510. As a result, when the setting value confirmation display is performed, it is possible to prevent the effect (output from the effect display device 1600, the output from the lamp and the speaker) from being restored at the time when the power is shut off, and hinder the normal work. Can be suppressed. Since the game backup information has already been set as the game information command in the second command buffer at the timing ty that is the start of the confirmation display state, in the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing ty to the timing t4 Even if the game backup information is destroyed due to noise, the game information command can be reliably transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510.

  The setting confirmation command is set in the first command buffer at timing ty, which is the start of the confirmation display state, and the set setting confirmation command is immediately transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510. Then, when the peripheral control MPU receives the setting confirmation command from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing ty, the peripheral member (for example, the directing operation) is mounted on the main body frame 4 or the game board 5. The initial operation of the unit 160 and the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210) is performed. In other words, in the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing t3 to the timing t4, the initial operation of the effect members (for example, the effect operation unit 160 and the plurality of rotary decoration bodies 3210) mounted on the main body frame 4 and the game board 5 is performed. Has been done. Each such production member is a member that can operate between an initial position and an operation position. In the initial operation of the production member, the production member normally operates from the initial position toward the operation position. Such as confirmation, and accurate alignment is performed so that the production member waits at the initial position. Thereby, even if the production member is at a position shifted from the initial position at the timing ty when the confirmation display state starts, the production member can be returned to the initial position by performing the initial operation. If the production member does not return to the initial position in one initial operation, the production member waits at a position shifted from the initial position by repeating the control for returning the production member to the initial position several times. Can be prevented. Then, after the end of the confirmation display state at the timing t4, it is possible to execute an effect using the effect member. For example, as a variation pattern command transmitted from the main control board 1310 to the peripheral control board 1510, when a variation pattern in which an effect using an effect member is set during the pattern variation is transmitted, a predetermined pattern variation At this timing, the production member is moved from the initial position to the operating position.

  As described above, after the confirmation display state at the timing t4 is completed, the variation pattern command can be transmitted from the main control board 1310 to the peripheral control board 1510, while the period is from the timing ty to the timing t4. In the confirmation display state, the fluctuation pattern is not transmitted. For this reason, in the confirmation display state that is the period from timing ty to timing t4, the effect member does not operate by transmitting the variation pattern in which the effect using the effect member is set during the symbol variation, It is not possible to determine whether or not it is not operating due to a failure of the effect member. In this respect, in the confirmation display state that is the period from timing ty to timing t4, the production members (for example, the production operation unit 160 and the plurality of rotary decoration bodies 3210) mounted on the main body frame 4 and the game board 5 are initially displayed. By performing the operation, it is possible to notify the outside that “the production member is normal but not accompanied by a game”, and it is possible to determine that the production member is not a failure. In this example, in the confirmation display state that is a period from timing ty to timing t4, the initial operation of the effect member is performed, but the operation is performed to notify that the effect member is not a failure. For example, in the confirmation display state that is a period from timing ty to timing t4, only the provisional operation of the effect member is performed separately from the initial operation, and after the confirmation display state at timing t4 ends. The initial operation of the effect member may be performed. The temporary operation of the effect member may be an operation different from the initial operation or the same operation as the initial operation.

  When the setting value is changed, the setting change command is set in the first command buffer at the timing ty, which is the start time of the change permission state, and the set setting change command is immediately transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510. Is sending to. When the peripheral control MPU receives the setting change command from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing ty, the peripheral control MPU is mounted on the main body frame 4 and the game board 5 in the same manner as when the setting confirmation command is received. The initial operation of the effect members (for example, the effect operation unit 160 and the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210) being performed is performed. As described above, also in the change permission state that is the period from the timing ty to the timing t4, as in the confirmation display state, the production members (for example, the production operation unit 160 and the plurality of production operation units 160 are mounted on the main body frame 4 and the game board 5). By performing the initial operation of the rotating decoration body 3210), it is possible to notify the outside that “the production member is normal but not accompanied by the game”, and it is not a failure of the production member. Can be determined.

[14-2. About the extension of warning alerts after the end of change permission status and confirmation display status]
In the above-described embodiment, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state that are the period from the timing ty to the timing t4, a warning notification corresponding to the type of command is output by the output from the image, lamp, and speaker of the effect display device 1600. Although it is executed, the warning notification may be extended and executed even after the change permission state or the confirmation display state ends. A case where the warning notification is extended and executed after the end of the change permission state or the confirmation display state will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 156 is a time chart illustrating a case where the warning notification is extended and executed after the change permission state or the confirmation display state ends.

  As shown in FIG. 156, although the details have been described above, a setting change command is set in the first command buffer at the start of the change permission state at timing ty, and the first command is set at the end of the confirmation display state at timing ty. A setting confirmation command is set in the buffer, and any command is sent to the peripheral control board 1510 as soon as it is set. The peripheral control MPU receives the setting change command and the setting confirmation command from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing ty until the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF arrives. During the period, warning notification corresponding to the type of command is executed by the output of the effect display device 1600, the lamp, and the speaker.

  At the end of the change permission state at timing t4, a setting change completion command is set in the first command buffer, and at the start of the confirmation display state at timing t4, a setting value confirmation display completion command is set in the first command buffer. Any command is sent to the peripheral control board 1510 as soon as it is set. At this time, the peripheral control MPU receives a setting change completion command and a setting value confirmation display completion command from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing t4, so that a predetermined time (for example, from the timing t4) In the period until the timing t4 ′ after 30 seconds elapses, the warning display that is being executed from the point of time ty is continuously executed by the image from the effect display device 1600, the output from the lamp, and the speaker. Yes. That is, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state that are the period from the timing ty to the timing t4, the warning notification corresponding to the type of the command is executed. The warning notification is extended and executed for a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds) that is a period from t4 to timing t4 ′. The extension of the warning notification ends when a warning notification extension end condition is set and the set extension end condition is satisfied. Specifically, when the warning notification is extended for a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds), the predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds) is set in a specific timer unit, and the timer unit counts the predetermined time. And end when the time expires. As another example, when a predetermined number of voice notifications (for example, a loop of five message voices) is ended as an extension period of the warning notification, the predetermined number of times is set in a specific counting unit and the count is counted. The unit may end when the number of times starts and the number of times expires.

  As described above, when the change permission state and the confirmation display state are executed, not only the period from the timing ty to the timing t4 but also the timing t4 ′ at which a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds) has elapsed from the timing t4. Until this period, the warning alert is extended. For example, when the warning notification is executed only when the change permission state or the confirmation display state is executed, the warning notification is executed in a short time (for example, 1 to 2 seconds) from the timing ty that is the start time of the change permission state or the confirmation display state. When the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF, the time for executing the warning notification, which is the period from the timing ty to the timing t4, is shortened. If a confirmation is displayed, the hall manager may not be aware. In particular, when a setting value confirmation display is performed, it is not necessary to change the setting value, so it is possible for a person other than the hall administrator to perform a setting value confirmation display in a short time. May not notice. On the other hand, when the warning notification is extended and executed even after the change permission state or the confirmation display state ends, a short time (for example, 1) from the timing ty that is the start time of the change permission state or the confirmation display state. Even if the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF in (˜2 seconds), a period from the timing t4 to the timing t4 ′ is secured as the time for executing the warning notification. For this reason, even if a person other than the hall administrator makes a setting value change or confirms the setting value illegally in a short period of time, it is easy for the hall administrator to notice, and a person other than the hall administrator must perform an illegal act. The monitoring system can be strengthened so that there is no problem.

  Further, as described above in detail, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state that are the period from timing ty to timing t4, the warning corresponding to the type of command is output by the image, lamp, and speaker output of the effect display device 1600. Information is being executed. The warning notification corresponding to the setting change command includes a voice that repeats “setting is being changed”, a message “setting is being changed!”, And lamp emission in the color corresponding to the setting change. It is said. In addition, the warning notification corresponding to the setting confirmation command includes the sound “Setting confirmation is in progress”, the message “Setting confirmation is in progress!”, And lamp emission in the color corresponding to the setting value setting confirmation. I am going to do that. When the warning notification is extended and executed after the change permission state or the confirmation display state is finished, the message content of the warning notification in the change permission state or the confirmation display state may be maintained. The message content may be different from the status and confirmation display status. For example, in the warning notification after the change permission state or confirmation display state is finished, the message content that is different from the message content in the change permission state or confirmation display state is "Setting change completed" or "Setting confirmation is completed" It may be configured to output a message such as “I did”. As a result, not only the above-mentioned countermeasures against fraud, but also when the change permission state and the confirmation display state are properly terminated, it is possible to make the hall manager easily aware of this. In addition, when maintaining the warning alert message content in the change permission state or the confirmation display state, make sure that the alert notification is not temporarily divided at t4, which is the switching timing of the alert alert extension. Also good. For example, for at least the alert output that is executed in response to the command type in the change permission state or the confirmation display state, the sound output from the speaker is continuously output until the sound is completed so that it does not end midway For example, the voice in the warning notification that is controlled to be extended may be executed again from the beginning of the voice after completion of the continuously output warning notification voice.

  As for the warning notification, the predetermined message content is notified by the output from the effect display device 1600, the lamp, and the speaker, but the sound output from the speaker is notified when the door is opened or abnormally entered. The warning sound such as “Bee-Bee” is not output, but is executed only by voice. In addition, the change permission state and the confirmation display state, which are the period from timing ty to timing t4, are in a non-variable state in which it is impossible to display the special symbol on the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400. On the other hand, after the change permission state or the confirmation display state, which is the period from timing ty to timing t4, is in a variable state in which the special symbol display on the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 can be performed. For example, when a variation pattern command is transmitted from the main control board 1310 to the peripheral control board 1510, various effect sounds are output from the speakers. In this regard, even when the warning notification is extended and executed after the change permission state or the confirmation display state is completed, a warning sound is not output from the speaker as a warning notification, so a limited number is provided to output sound. When there is no vacancy (unused channel) in the finitely provided channel when assigning to the finitely provided channel to output various performance sounds Can be avoided as much as possible.

  Further, when the warning notification is extended and executed after the change permission state or the confirmation display state is finished, the peripheral control MPU performs a door opening command or abnormal entry from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing t4. The time command is received, but the door is opened from the timing t4 ′, which is the end time of the warning notification that has been extended without performing the door opening notification or abnormal entry notification at the timing t4. Time notification and abnormal entry notification are executed. That is, when the warning notification is extended and executed after the change permission state or the confirmation display state is finished, the extended warning notification is executed in preference to the door opening notification or abnormal entry notification. As a result, even if a person other than the hall administrator performs a setting value change or setting value confirmation display illegally in a short time, the hall administrator can give priority to the extended warning notification so that the hall administrator It is easy to notice and the monitoring system can be strengthened so that no one other than the hall manager can perform fraud. In addition, about the alert | reporting (for example, alerting | reporting at the time of abnormal entry) about the serious injustice, it is not in the time of timing t4 'which is the time of completion | finish of the alert alert performed extended, and the alert alert extended is being performed. However, it may be executed at the timing t4.

  As for the notification when the door is opened or when the abnormal ball is entered, not only the predetermined message content is notified by the image from the effect display device 1600, the output from the lamp or the speaker, but also a warning sound such as “Bee-Bee” from the speaker. Is output and executed with a combination of “message + warning sound”. The door opening notification or abnormal entry notification is output continuously during execution of the door opening notification or abnormal entry notification, but is output only for a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds). It is good. However, in this example, since the alarm at the time of opening the door and the alarm at the time of abnormal entry are executed from the timing t4 ′, which is the end of the alarm alarm that has been executed in an extended manner, for example, an extended alarm alarm time (timing) When the period from t4 to timing t4 ′) is longer than or equal to the output time (for example, 10 seconds) of the door opening notification or abnormal entry notification, the door opening notification or abnormality The notification when entering the ball will not be output. In view of the problem due to the decrease in the notification frequency, the warning notification extended time (period from timing t4 to timing t4 ′) is longer than or equal to the warning sound output time (for example, 10 seconds). May be configured to output the door opening notification or abnormal entry notification only for the remaining time after the warning notification extension time of the output time of the door opening notification or abnormal entry notification. . Moreover, you may comprise so that the notification at the time of door opening and the notification at the time of abnormal entrance may be newly started after the extended time of warning notification.

  In addition, when the warning notification is extended and executed after the change permission state or the confirmation display state is finished, the door opening notification is executed from timing t4 ′ which is the end of the extended warning notification. When the timing t5 at which the main body frame 4 is closed comes before the timing t4 ′, the notification when the door is opened is not executed. That is, when the main body frame 4 is closed during the execution of the extended warning notification, the notification when the door is opened is not executed. However, when the main body frame 4 is closed during the execution of the extended warning notification and the main body frame 4 is opened again before the timing t4 ′, the extended warning notification is terminated and the notification at the time of opening the door is performed. Running. Normally, after the setting value setting change or the setting value confirmation display, the main body frame 4 is only closed and the main body frame 4 is not opened again. If an incomprehensible situation occurs in which the main body frame 4 is opened again immediately after the setting change or setting value confirmation display is performed, a door opening notification consisting of a combination of “message + warning sound” is used as a warning notification. By giving priority to execution, it is easy for the hall manager to notice that the main frame 4 is open due to an incomprehensible situation that is suspected of fraud, and the main frame 4 is open. The monitoring system can be strengthened so that there is no problem.

  In addition, as described above in detail, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state that are the period from the timing ty to the timing t4, monitoring of fraud using the magnetic sensor 2470 and the vibration sensor 3005 is not executed. On the other hand, after the end of the change permission state and the confirmation display state, monitoring of fraud using the magnetic sensor 2470 and the vibration sensor 3005 is performed (however, regarding the monitoring of fraud using the vibration sensor 3005) , Only during jackpot games). If it is determined that a fraudulent act due to a magnet or vibration is being performed, a fraud notification based on an image from the effect display device 1600, an output from a lamp, or a speaker is executed as an external notification. At this time, even if the warning notification is extended and executed after the change permission state or the confirmation display state is finished, the unauthorized notification is executed in preference to the extended warning notification. In this way, for fraud reports that are suspected of severe fraud such as magnets and vibrations, priority is given over extended warning alerts, so that hall managers can easily notice and illegal actions can be performed by persons other than hall managers. The monitoring system can be strengthened so that there is no such thing.

  In the warning notification, the predetermined message content is notified by an output from the effect display device 1600, the lamp, and the speaker. For example, the predetermined message content is notified by the output from the lamp and the speaker, and the effect display is performed. The image of the device 1600 may not be output. Thus, in the structure which performs warning alerting | reporting using a part of some alerting | reporting members (effect display apparatus 1600, a lamp | ramp, a speaker), alert alerting is extended and performed after completion | finish of a change permission state or a confirmation display state. In this case, it is not output from the image of the effect display device 1600 as a warning notice during extension, but when it is determined that an illegal act due to a magnet or vibration is being performed, it is output as a warning notice during extension. The unauthorized notification may be executed only by the image of the non-production display device 1600 (by notification using only the notification member that is not used among the plurality of notification members). As a result, when the warning notification is extended and executed after completion of the change permission state or the confirmation display state, it is possible to make the hall manager aware of the fraud notification suspected of fraud without stopping the extended warning notification. it can. Similarly, the door opening notification and the abnormal winning notification are also based only on the image of the effect display device 1600 that is not output as a warning notification during extension (only the notification members that are not used among the plurality of notification members). Depending on the notification used, the door opening notification or abnormal winning notification may be executed.

  In this example, the warning notification is extended and executed even after the change permission state and the confirmation display state are finished. However, the warning notification is extended and executed only after the confirmation display state is finished. It is good also as composition to do. For example, when the setting value is changed, the main control built-in RAM is initialized after the change permission state is completed (in step S38, all areas of the main control built-in RAM are cleared except for a specific area). However, the peripheral control MPU receives a setting change completion command from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing t4, so that a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds) has elapsed from the timing t4. In a period until the timing t4 ′ arrives, a configuration in which a RAM clear notification that notifies that the RAM has been cleared is executed is not an extension of the warning notification by an output from an image, lamp, or speaker of the effect display device 1600. It is good. Thereby, after the end of the change permission state, the hall manager can grasp that the RAM has been cleared.

[14-3. About the case where the initial operation of the production member is performed after the change permission state or the confirmation display state is finished]
In the above-described embodiment, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state that are the period from the timing ty to the timing t4, the production member (for example, the production operation unit 160 or the plurality of production operation units 160) mounted on the main body frame 4 or the game board 5 is displayed. Although the initial operation of the rotating decorative body 3210) is performed, the initial operation of the effect member may be performed after the change permission state or the confirmation display state ends. A case where the initial operation of the effect member is performed after the end of the change permission state or the confirmation display state will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 157 is a time chart illustrating a case where the initial operation of the effect member is performed after the change permission state and the confirmation display state are completed.

  As shown in FIG. 157, when the change permission state ends at timing t4, a setting change completion command is set in the first command buffer, and when the confirmation display state ends at timing t4, the setting value confirmation is confirmed in the first command buffer. A display completion command is set, and any command is sent to the peripheral control board 1510 as soon as it is set. At this time, the peripheral control MPU is mounted on the main body frame 4 or the game board 5 by receiving a setting change completion command or a setting value confirmation display completion command from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing t4. The initial operation of the production member (for example, the production operation unit 160 and the plurality of rotary decoration bodies 3210) is started. That is, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state that are the period from the timing ty to the timing t4, without performing the initial operation of the production member, after the change permission state and the confirmation display state at the timing t4 are finished, the production member The initial operation is performed.

  The effect members described above include an effect operation unit 160 and a plurality of rotating decoration bodies 3210 as members that can move between the initial position and the operation position. In such an initial operation of the effect member, a return process for performing an accurate alignment so that the effect member stands by at the initial position and a confirmation of whether the effect member operates normally from the initial position toward the operation position are performed. The confirmation process is executed in order. For example, when the effect member is operating when the power of the pachinko machine 1 is shut off, the effect member stops at a position deviated from the initial position, and the effect member is initially set even when the power is turned on thereafter. It is in a position shifted from the position. In this regard, after the power of the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, even if the effect member is at a position deviated from the initial position at the timing t4 when the change permission state or the confirmation display state ends, the return process is performed. The production member can be returned to the initial position, and if the production member does not return to the initial position in one return process, the return process for returning the production member to the initial position is repeated several times. The production member can be prevented from waiting at a position deviated from the initial position. Further, in the confirmation process, it is possible to confirm whether or not the effect member operates normally by operating so that the effect member moves from the initial position to the operation position and then returns from the operation position to the initial position again. If the effect member does not return to the initial position even if the return process is repeated several times, or if the effect member does not operate normally at the operation position or the initial position in the confirmation process, the effect member is abnormal. Is informed outside. Then, after the initial operation of the effect member is finished, the effect using the effect member can be executed. For example, as a variation pattern command transmitted from the main control board 1310 to the peripheral control board 1510, when a variation pattern in which an effect using an effect member is set during the pattern variation is transmitted, a predetermined pattern variation At this timing, the production member is moved from the initial position to the operating position.

  In addition, the effect member includes a light guide plate 3110 capable of emitting and decorating the first pattern and the second pattern by light irradiation. In such an initial operation of the light guide plate 3110, a confirmation process for confirming whether the light guide plate 3110 is normally decorated with light emission is executed. In other words, in the confirmation process, the process of irradiating the light guide plate 3110 with light so as to decorate the first pattern and the process of irradiating the light guide panel 3110 with light so as to decorate the second pattern with light are repeated several times. Thus, it can be confirmed whether the light guide plate 3110 is normally decorated with light emission. Note that the initial operation of the effect operation unit 160 and the plurality of rotating decorative bodies 3210 and the initial operation of the light guide plate 3110 are executed in parallel from the time t4 when the change permission state or the confirmation display state ends. I have to. Then, after the initial operation of the light guide plate 3110 is finished, an effect using the light guide plate 3110 can be executed. For example, as a variation pattern command transmitted from the main control board 1310 to the peripheral control board 1510, when a variation pattern in which an effect using the light guide plate 3110 is set during the symbol variation is transmitted, At a predetermined timing, the light guide plate 3110 is light-decorated with the first pattern and the second pattern.

  As described above, in this example, after the power of the pachinko machine 1 is turned on, the change permission state and the confirmation display state that are the period from the timing ty to the timing t4 are set without performing the initial operation of the effect member. Only the setting change of the value and the confirmation display of the setting value are performed, and the initial operation of the effect member is performed after the change permission state and the confirmation display state at the timing t4. For example, when the initial operation of the effect member is performed in the change permission state or the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing ty to the timing t4, when the confirmation work is performed at the factory, the setting change of the setting value or the setting value At the same time as confirming whether the confirmation display functions normally, it is necessary to confirm whether or not the directing member operates normally by the initial operation of the directing member. . However, after the change permission state and the confirmation display state at the timing t4 are finished, by performing the initial operation of the effect member, the change permission state and the confirmation display state that are the period from the timing ty to the timing t4 are set values. Only the setting change and the confirmation display of the set value are performed, and after the change permission state and the confirmation display state at the timing t4 are finished, only the confirmation of whether the effect member operates normally by the initial operation of the effect member is performed. It is possible to increase the certainty of confirmation because there is no need for confirmation at the factory.

  In the above description, when the peripheral control MPU receives a setting change completion command or a setting value confirmation display completion command from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing t4, the peripheral control MPU performs the initial operation of the effect member. However, apart from the setting change completion command and the setting value confirmation display completion command, the initial operation command for performing the initial operation of the effect member is received from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing t4. At this time, an initial operation of the effect member may be performed. Such an initial operation command is set in the first command buffer at the timing t4 when the change permission state or the confirmation display state ends, and is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 immediately after the initial operation command is set. And On the other hand, the initial operation command is set in the second command buffer at the timing ty which is the start time of the change permission state or the confirmation display state, and the set initial operation command is immediately transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510. The initial operation command set in the second command buffer is held until the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF, and the initial operation command set in the second command buffer at the timing t4. May be transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510. In such a case, while the initial operation command is set at the timing ty, which is the start time of the change permission state or the confirmation display state, until the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF arrives. The initial operation of the effect member can be delayed, and the initial operation of the effect member can be performed after the change permission state or the confirmation display state ends.

  Further, when the change permission state or the confirmation display state is executed, not only the period from the timing ty to the timing t4 but also the period until the timing t4 ′ when a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds) elapses from the timing t4. When the warning notification is extended and executed, the warning notification extension time is set so that the time becomes longer than the time when the initial operation of the effect member is performed. That is, the initial operation of the effect member performed after the end of the change permission state or the confirmation display state is finished before the warning notification that is extended and executed after the change permission state or the confirmation display state is finished. . As described above, after completion of the change permission state and the confirmation display state, the state shifts to a variable state in which the special symbol display on the special symbol display of the function display unit 1400 can be performed, and the player plays the game. Although it is possible to perform the warning notification while extending the warning notification, the notification by the output from the image, lamp, and speaker of the effect display device 1600 is executed and the external warning is enhanced. It is said. For this reason, the period in which the warning notification is extended and executed is not a period in which the player is hesitant to start the game and the player is about to start the game. In this regard, when the warning notification is extended and executed, the initial operation of the effect member is terminated, so that the warning notification executed by the extension is ended and the player tries to start the game. The initial operation of the production member has already been completed. For this reason, it is possible to execute an effect using the effect member without being affected by the initial operation of the effect member after the end of the warning notice that is extended after the change permission state or the confirmation display state is ended. , It is possible to avoid missing information obtained from the production contents. In addition, in order to promote that the player does not start the game during the period when the warning notification is extended and executed, the content of the warning notification that is extended and executed is "Please wait a little longer for the game start", etc. It may be executed in such a manner as to include a special message that prompts the game waiting.

  In addition, when performing the initial operation of the production member after the change permission state or the confirmation display state, even if the production member does not return to the initial position even if the return process is repeated several times, If the operation position or the initial position does not operate normally, an abnormality in an accessory due to an image from the effect display device 1600, an output from a lamp, or a speaker so as to notify the outside that an abnormality has occurred in the effect member. Information is being executed. At this time, even when the warning notification is extended and executed after completion of the change permission state or the confirmation display state, the accessory abnormality notification is executed in preference to the extended warning notification. As described above, the accessory abnormality notification is prioritized over the extended warning notification, so that the hall manager can easily recognize whether or not the effect member operates normally.

  In the warning notification, the predetermined message content is notified by an output from the effect display device 1600, the lamp, and the speaker. For example, the predetermined message content is notified by the output from the lamp and the speaker, and the effect display is performed. The image of the device 1600 may not be output. Thus, in the structure which performs warning alerting | reporting using a part of some alerting | reporting members (effect display apparatus 1600, a lamp | ramp, a speaker), alert alerting is extended and performed after completion | finish of a change permission state or a confirmation display state. In this case, the output of the warning display device 1600 is not output as the warning notification during the extension, but if it is determined that an abnormality has occurred in the presentation member, the warning is not output as the warning notification during the extension. The accessory abnormality notification may be executed only by the image of the display device 1600 (by notification using only a notification member that is not used among the plurality of notification members). As a result, when the warning notification is extended and executed after the change permission state or the confirmation display state is finished, the hall manager can be made aware of the accessory abnormality notification without stopping the extended warning notification.

  Further, in this example, as the initial operation of the effect member after the change permission state or the confirmation display state is completed, a return process for performing accurate alignment so that the effect member waits at the initial position, and the effect member operates from the initial position. The confirmation process for confirming whether or not it normally operates toward the position is executed in order, but the return process may be executed in advance in the change permission state or the confirmation display state. In other words, from the start of the change permission state or the confirmation display state at the timing ty, only the return process is executed in the initial operation of the production member, and after the change permission state or the confirmation display state at the timing t4 ends, the production member Of these initial operations, the confirmation process may be executed. Here, as for the return process, if the effect member does not return to the initial position in one return process, the return process for returning the effect member to the initial position is repeated several times. There is a case. In this regard, even if a long time is required for the return process by executing the return process in advance in the change permission state or the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing ty to the timing t4, the change It does not affect the time until the confirmation process as the initial operation of the effect member is completed after the end of the permission state or the confirmation display state. For this reason, after the end of the change permission state or the confirmation display state, the initial operation of the effect member can be completed relatively quickly, and then the effect using the effect member based on the variation pattern can be executed.

  Further, in this example, at the time of timing ty, the initial operation of the effect member is performed after the change permission state or the confirmation display state at timing t4 is ended, regardless of whether the state is shifted to the change permission state or the confirmation display state. However, when shifting to the confirmation display state, the initial operation of the effect member may be performed in advance in the confirmation display state. That is, when shifting to the change permission state, the initial operation of the effect member is performed after completion of the change permission state and the confirmation display state at timing t4, whereas when shifting to the confirmation display state, The initial operation of the effect member may be performed from the start of the confirmation display state at ty. Here, in the confirmation display state, the setting value setting is not changed as in the change permission state, but only the setting value setting confirmation is performed. Therefore, the confirmation display state can be completed in a relatively short time. Is possible. In this regard, when shifting to the confirmation display state, in the confirmation display state, the initial operation of the effect member is performed in advance, and the initial operation of the effect member is completed before the confirmation display state ends. Can be made. For this reason, after the confirmation display state ends, it is possible to perform an effect using the effect member based on the variation pattern, and the initial operation of the effect member is completed while the confirmation display state is completed in a relatively short time. It is possible to prevent a situation where it is difficult for the player to start playing.

[14-4. About a variation of fraud monitoring]
In the above-described embodiment, as the magnetic sensor 2470 for detecting fraudulent acts caused by magnets, a place where magnetism is generated (whether it is around the setting change board 1311 or the setting key switch 1311a located on the rear side of the game board 5 or the game board) 1 is provided in front of the game area 5a), but a plurality of magnetic sensors are provided, and are located on the front side of the game board 5. In the vicinity of the setting change board 1311 and the setting key switch 1311a located in front of the game area 5a or on the rear side of the game board 5, each magnetic sensor may be able to detect the generation of magnetism. In the change permission state and the confirmation display state, an illegal act using only a part of the plurality of magnetic sensors (for example, a magnetic sensor provided around the setting change board 1311 or the setting key switch 1311a). Monitoring may be executed. With reference to FIG. 158, a description will be given of a modification example of the monitoring of fraud during the setting value setting change or the setting value confirmation display. FIG. 158 is a time chart showing a modified example of the monitoring state of fraud during setting value setting change and setting value confirmation display.

  In this example, as a magnetic sensor 2470 for detecting an illegal act by a magnet, a setting operation unit capable of detecting the generation of magnetism around the setting change board 1311 and the setting key switch 1311a located on the rear side of the game board 5 A magnetic sensor 2470a and a game area magnetic sensor 2470b capable of detecting the generation of magnetism in front of the game area 5a located on the front side of the game board 5 are provided. In a normal state, the setting operation unit magnetic sensor 2470a is used to monitor an illegal act on a predetermined area on the back side of the pachinko machine 1. In other words, in the normal state, the setting operation unit magnetic sensor 2470a uses a magnetic field that is not supposed to be generated in the area where the setting change board 1311 and the setting key switch 1311a are provided on the back side of the pachinko machine 1 (due to illegal access). (Magnetism) has occurred (whether the magnet is approaching), and unauthorized activities such as setting change or confirmation display by anyone other than the person who changes the setting value or confirmation display are monitored. Examples of fraudulent acts on the back side of the pachinko machine 1 using a magnet include, for example, a metal fraudulent instrument in the island facility where the pachinko machine 1 is installed (in the space where the back side of the pachinko machine 1 is exposed) A magnet that indirectly manipulates a metal fraudulent instrument is charged, and a magnet and a metal fraudulent instrument are passed through a slight gap between the pachinko machine 1 and the island facility, or through an opening that destroys a part of the pachinko machine 1. It is possible to act to illegally access the setting change board 1311 and the setting key switch 1311a on the back side of the pachinko machine 1 by operating. Note that in the fraud detection process of step S112, when a detection signal is input from the setting operation unit magnetic sensor 2470a, the fraudulent act using the magnet for the area where the setting change board 1311 and the setting key switch 1311a are provided. It is judged that has been done.

  Similarly, at the normal time, the gaming area magnetic sensor 2470b is used to monitor an illegal act on a predetermined area on the surface side of the pachinko machine 1. That is, during normal times, the game area magnetic sensor 2470b monitors whether or not magnetism (magnetism caused by unauthorized access) that should not be generated has occurred in the area in front of the game area 5a (whether the magnet has approached). Then, the illegal action such as changing the course of the game ball B flowing down the game area 5a and entering the various winning holes and gate portions (gates) provided in the game board 5 is monitored. Note that, in the cheating detection process of step S112, when a detection signal is input from the game area magnetic sensor 2470b, it is determined that cheating using a magnet is being performed on the area in front of the game area 5a. is doing.

  In this example, two magnetic sensors, a setting operation unit magnetic sensor 2470a and a game area unit magnetic sensor 2470b, are provided as the magnetic sensor 2470 for detecting an illegal act by a magnet. The sensors 2470a and 2470b may have the same performance. That is, although not shown, the two magnetic sensors 2470a and 2470b are configured by a rectangular box-shaped sensor body, and have a directivity that is highly sensitive in the vertical direction with respect to the side surface on one side. It is possible to perform magnetic detection in the magnetic detection region and magnetic detection in the second magnetic detection region having a directivity that is highly sensitive in the vertical direction with respect to the opposite side surface that is the opposite side. It has become. “High sensitivity in the vertical direction” means that the sensitivity is higher in the vertical direction than in the horizontal direction with respect to each side surface, and does not mean that there is no sensitivity in the horizontal direction. In other words, the magnetic detection area emitted from each side surface is a wide area surrounded by a sphere. The game area magnetic sensor 2470b is arranged such that the first magnetic detection area and the second magnetic detection area that are emitted from the side surface of the sensor body expand in the left-right direction or the vertical direction in the front view of the pachinko machine 1. , A wide range on the surface side of the pachinko machine 1 (for example, a plurality of winning ports such as a first starting port 2002, a second starting port 2004, a normal winning port 2003, a big winning port 2005, etc., and other main parts of the ball channel) ) Can be monitored. On the other hand, the setting operation unit magnetic sensor 2470a is configured so that the first magnetic detection region and the second magnetic detection region that are emitted from the side surface of the sensor body are spread in the front-rear direction in the front view of the pachinko machine 1, and One of the magnetic detection areas is arranged so as to include the back side of the pachinko machine 1, and the area where the setting change board 1311 and the setting key switch 1311a are provided on the back side of the pachinko machine 1 can be monitored.

  As shown in FIG. 158, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state that are the period from the timing ty to the timing t4, the setting operation unit magnetic sensor 2470a is used to monitor fraud on a predetermined area on the back side of the pachinko machine 1. On the other hand, the gaming area magnetic sensor 2470b is used to monitor fraudulent acts on a predetermined area on the surface side of the pachinko machine 1. This is because, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state, the regular operator who performs the setting change of the set value and the confirmation display of the set value operates the setting key switch 1311a on the back side of the pachinko machine 1. In addition, there is no room for illegal activities using magnets other than such regular workers, whereas the surface side of the pachinko machine 1 is in a position that cannot be seen by regular workers, This is because there is a possibility that a person other than such a regular worker may perform an illegal act using a magnet. In addition, when a regular worker who changes the setting value or confirms and displays the setting value has something that can generate magnetism, the game area magnetic sensor 2470b may detect the occurrence of magnetism. The setting operation unit magnetic sensor 2470a is more likely to detect the occurrence of magnetism, but the setting operation unit magnetic sensor 2470a detects the occurrence of magnetism as an illegal act using a magnet. It is possible to prevent the change of the normal setting and the obstruction of the confirmation display work.

  In addition, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state that are the period from the timing ty to the timing t4, monitoring of fraud using the vibration sensor 3005 is not performed. This is because, in a change permission state or a confirmation display state, when a regular operator who performs setting change of a setting value or confirmation display of a setting value operates the setting key switch 1311a, the setting key switch 1311a is set to a pachinko machine. This is because vibration may be transmitted to the vibration sensor 3005 provided on the front surface side of the pachinko machine 1 although it is provided on the back surface side of the pachinko machine 1. In other words, even if a regular operator who performs setting change or setting value confirmation display applies vibration, the vibration sensor 3005 is prevented from detecting the occurrence of vibration as a fraudulent act caused by vibration. It is possible to suppress the change of the setting and the obstruction of the confirmation display work. In this example, monitoring of fraud using the vibration sensor 3005 is executed only during a big hit game during normal times, but during a big hit game, similar to the magnetic sensor 2470 that detects a fraud with a magnet. Not only in the variable state, but also the fraudulent behavior may be monitored using the vibration sensor 3005. Even in the case of executing the fraud monitoring using the vibration sensor 3005 during the changeable state or the big hit game, the change permission state or the confirmation display state before the transition to the changeable state is performed. In addition, monitoring of fraud using the vibration sensor 3005 is not performed. That is, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state that are the period from the timing ty to the timing t4, the game area unit magnetic sensor 2470b is monitored for illegal acts related to magnetism, whereas the vibration sensor 3005 is used. Monitoring of fraudulent behavior related to vibration using

  In this example, there are two magnetic sensors, the setting operation unit magnetic sensor 2470a and the game area magnetic sensor 2470b. However, only the game area magnetic sensor 2470b is provided, and the front side of the game board 5 is provided. It may be possible to detect only the generation of magnetism in front of the game area 5a located in the area. In such a configuration, similarly to the configuration of the two magnetic sensors described above, not only in the normal state but also in the change permission state and the confirmation display state, the game area unit magnetic sensor 2470b is used to detect the surface side of the pachinko machine 1. Monitors fraud in certain areas. In addition, a plurality of magnetic sensors instead of one magnetic sensor is provided as the game area magnetic sensor 2470b, and the entire area in front of the game area 5a located on the front side of the game board 5 is provided by the plurality of magnetic sensors. You may make it monitor. For example, in a plurality of locations on the front side of the pachinko machine 1 such as a first start port 2002, a second start port 2004, a normal winning port 2003, a big winning port 2005, and other main portions of the ball flow path. On the other hand, the occurrence of magnetism can be detected so that each magnetic sensor of the plurality of magnetic sensors corresponds, and illegal activities are monitored. In such a configuration, not only in the normal state but also in the change permission state and the confirmation display state, the entire area on the surface side of the pachinko machine 1 is used by using all of the plurality of magnetic sensors as the game area magnetic sensor 2470b. Monitors fraud. However, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state, only a part of the plurality of magnetic sensors as the game region magnetic sensor 2470b is used, and an important region (for example, the surface side of the pachinko machine 1 (for example, In addition, it is possible to monitor only the illegal acts on the first starting port 2002, the second starting port 2004, the normal winning port 2003, the prize winning port 2005, etc.).

  In addition, when the game area magnetic sensor 2470b detects the occurrence of magnetism in the change permission state or the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing ty to the timing t4, the predetermined area on the surface side of the pachinko machine 1 is detected. Judging that cheating is taking place. In addition, when the game area magnetic sensor 2470b detects the occurrence of magnetism in the change permission state or the confirmation display state that is the period from the timing ty to the timing t4, the game area magnetic sensor 2470b is magnetic at that time. When a magnetic generation command that specifies the detection of the occurrence of a magnetic field is set in the second command buffer and the magnetic generation command is set in the second command buffer, the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF has arrived. Until this time, the magnetic generation command set in the second command buffer is held, and at the timing t4, the magnetic generation command set in the second command buffer is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510. Also, the peripheral control MPU receives a magnetism generation command from the main control board 1310 (main control MPU) at the timing t4, so that the peripheral control MPU can receive images, lamps, and speakers from the effect display device 1600 over a predetermined period from the timing t4. With this output, a notification at the time of occurrence of magnetism for notifying that a predetermined area on the surface side of the pachinko machine 1 has detected the occurrence of magnetism is executed. As notification at the time of occurrence of magnetism, sound that repeats “magnetic detection abnormality”, a message display of “magnetic detection abnormality!”, And lamp emission with higher brightness than normal are executed. As described above, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state, it is monitored whether or not the occurrence of magnetism is detected in the predetermined area on the surface side of the pachinko machine 1, and after the change permission state and the confirmation display state are finished. When the hall manager detects that the main body frame 4 is open or the occurrence of magnetism is detected in a predetermined area on the surface side of the pachinko machine 1 by performing notification at the time of magnetic detection toward the outside. I can grasp it. It should be noted that after the change permission state and the confirmation display state are finished, it is possible to simultaneously execute the above-mentioned notification when the door is opened or abnormal entry, but the game area magnetic sensor 2470b detects the occurrence of magnetism. In such a case, it is possible to preferentially execute the notification at the time of occurrence of magnetism because it is suspected of serious fraud.

  As described above, commands related to fraud monitoring such as a command at the time of occurrence of magnetism are set in the second command buffer in the change permission state and the confirmation display state in the same manner as the door opening command and abnormal winning command, and the command The set command is not transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510 immediately, but the command set in the second command buffer is held until the timing t4 when the setting key switch 1311a is turned OFF, and at the timing t4, The command set in the second command buffer is transmitted to the peripheral control board 1510. As a result, even when the setting operation unit magnetic sensor 2470a detects the occurrence of magnetism as a fraudulent act using a magnet when changing the setting value or performing a confirmation display of the setting value, notification when the magnetism occurs is executed. This can prevent the inhibition of regular work.

  In the above, when the game area magnetic sensor 2470b detects the occurrence of magnetism in the change permission state or the confirmation display state, the change permission state or the confirmation display state is not executed at that time without performing the notification at the time of the occurrence of magnetism. The notification at the time of occurrence of magnetism is executed after the end, but if it is a notification that does not hinder regular work, it may be executed in advance during the period of the change permission state or the confirmation display state. . For example, when the game area magnetic sensor 2470b detects the occurrence of magnetism in the change permission state or the confirmation display state, the peripheral control board 1510 (peripheral control MPU, etc. ) On the display side, the notification by the output from the image, lamp, and speaker is delayed, while the error is not output from the speaker but only the error display is performed on the 7-segment provided on the payout control board 633. For example, simple notification on the control board 1310 (main control MPU) side can be executed without delay.

  Further, in this example, in the change permission state and the confirmation display state, the gaming area unit magnetic sensor 2470b is used to monitor fraud for a predetermined area on the surface side of the pachinko machine 1, but only in the confirmation display state, The gaming area magnetic sensor 2470b may be used to monitor fraud in a predetermined area on the surface side of the pachinko machine 1. That is, in the confirmation display state, it is possible to perform confirmation display of the set value by short-term work, so that the possibility that the game area magnetic sensor 2470b detects the occurrence of magnetism due to a regular worker is low, While the gaming area magnetic sensor 2470b is used to strengthen the monitoring of fraud against a predetermined area on the surface side of the pachinko machine 1, in the change-permitted state, setting values are changed by long-term work. The gaming area magnetic sensor 2470b is highly likely to detect the occurrence of magnetism due to a regular worker, and the pachinko machine 1 using the gaming area magnetic sensor 2470b is emphasized with emphasis on the workability of the regular worker. It is also possible not to execute monitoring of fraudulent acts on a predetermined area on the front side of the screen.

  According to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment described above, the game control board having the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 of FIG. 64 as the game control central processing unit capable of controlling the progress of the game is shown in FIG. A control board 1310 is provided. The main control board 1310 is provided with a test connector 1310k of FIG. 68 that can be electrically connected to a test harness as a wiring that takes out an output signal from the main control MPU 1310a and transmits it to a test apparatus that tests the pachinko machine 1. It can be prepared.

  When the pachinko machine 1 is tested by the test apparatus, the main control MPU of the main control board 1310 is mounted on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x which is the front side of the main control board 1310, whereas the test connector 1310k is mounted on the back surface (solder surface) 1310y which is the back surface side of the main control board 1310.

  As described above, since the test connector 1310k is mounted on the back side of the main control board 1310, when the pachinko machine 1 is produced as a test machine to be tested by a specific test engine, and when the pachinko machine 1 is a game hall Even in the case of being produced as a mass-produced machine, the area for mounting the test connector 1310k is not formed as an empty area on the surface side of the main control board 1310. Therefore, the degree of freedom of arrangement of various electronic components on the surface of the main control board 1310 can be increased.

  Further, according to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment described above, a plurality of electronic components are mounted on the main control board 1310 ′ of FIG. 66A as a game control board capable of controlling the progress of the game. . These plural electronic components are a lead-type electronic component, a ZIP-type main control MPU (described as a part number “MIC1” in the drawing) included in the lead type of FIG. 66A, and a surface-mount type electronic component. The SMD type Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 shown in FIG. 66 (a) as electronic components is mounted on the surface (mounting surface) 1310x ′ of the main control board 1310 ′.

  The main control board 1310 'includes a parts list area 1310xb' shown in FIG. 66A as an information area. This component list area 1310xb 'can describe information corresponding to an identifier of a surface mount type electronic component. Examples of information described in the component list area 1310xb 'include the name of a manufacturer of surface mount type electronic components (including abbreviations and symbols), and the product number of the surface mount type electronic component.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 66 (a), the parts list area 1310xb ′ has a parts list of electronic parts configured in such a manner that part numbers and product numbers (numbers listed in the catalog) are aligned. Is printed in white (or black) as silk printing. The size of the part number and the part number is larger (for example, about 3 to 5 times larger) than the size of the part number printed in white (or black) as silk printing in the part arrangement region 1310xa ′. As white (or black). A separator “:” is provided between the part number and the part number (number listed in the catalog) so that the part number and the part number (number listed in the catalog) are not identified as consecutive. . With this delimiter, the part number and the product number (numbers listed in the catalog) can be distinguished and identified. In addition, the manufacturer's name (including abbreviations and symbols) may be printed in white (or black) as silk printing together with the product number (number listed in the catalog).

  Thus, even when the display mode of the identifier attached to the surface mount type electronic component mounted on the main control board 1310 ′ is difficult to see, information corresponding to this identifier (manufacturer name, product number, etc.) ) Is displayed in the component list area 1310xb ′ included in the main control board 1310 ′. Therefore, the identifier of the surface mount type electronic component can be reliably recognized.

  Further, according to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment described above, a plurality of electronic components are mounted on the main control board 1310 in FIG. 64 as a game control board capable of controlling the progress of the game. The control board 1310 is accommodated in the main control board box 1320 of FIG. 68 as a sealed board box having sealing means.

  The main control board box 1320 is provided with a plurality of ventilation holes 1301z formed in the transparent cover body 1301 of FIG. 68 as holes having a smaller shape than the surface mounting type electronic component among the plurality of electronic components. It has been.

  As described above, since the main control board box 1320 is provided with a plurality of ventilation holes 1301z having a shape smaller than the shape of the surface mount type electronic component, the surface mount type electronic component is obtained by some unauthorized means. Even if an attempt is made to peel off the main control board 1310 and replace it with an unauthorized electronic component, the surface mount type electronic component cannot be taken out from the vent hole 1301z which is a plurality of holes provided in the main control board box 1320. ing. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the surface mount type electronic component from being replaced with an unauthorized electronic component.

  Moreover, according to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment described above, the winning control circuit includes the main control MPU 1310a of the main control board 1310 of FIG. 22 and the setting key switch 1311a of the setting change board 1311 of FIG. 22 as the setting device. ing. The main control MPU 1310a can set a plurality of types of winning probabilities, and the setting key switch 1311a can set a plurality of types of winning probabilities by an external operation.

  Specifically, the main control MPU 1310a uses various tables used in various lottery determinations associated with the set values (for example, a jackpot determination table in which the ratio of the jackpot determination value indicating that the jackpot is won, Big hit symbol determination table that defines the percentage of decision value for decision, small hit judgment table that defines the proportion of small hit judgment value that indicates winning for small hit, and the percentage of decision value for decision of small hit symbol A small hitting symbol determination table, a normal transition determination table in which the ratio of determination values for transition determination from the probability change to the normal time is specified), and used at various distribution rates associated with set values Select various tables (for example, a distribution table in which the distribution time is specified, a block that manages the drive of an electric drive source such as a motor or a solenoid) . The setting key switch 1311a has a setting key cylinder that is rotated by inserting the setting key, and can switch the setting value of the pachinko machine 1, and the setting key cylinder of the setting key switch 1311a.

In addition, a resist solution is applied on the copper foil surface of the back surface (solder surface) KBy of the main body frame side relay substrate KB to form a back surface (solder surface) side resist layer KByr, but the back surface (solder surface). In the region corresponding to the land KTH1 in the side resist layer KByr, a back surface (solder surface) side resist opening KByra having an opening diameter KByrD1 smaller than the outer diameter KTHD1 of the land KTH1 is formed. Thereby, since it can be set as the state which resist covered the whole outer peripheral part of land KTH1 which is a junction part, high peeling strength can be made uniform with respect to the load from the multi-direction with respect to land KTH1.

  The main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN, which is a connector, is fixed to the main body frame side relay board KB by rivets. Since the end of the rivet is crimped and plastically deformed, it is possible to maintain a state in which the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is fixed to the main body frame side relay board KB.

  Further, according to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment described above, the substrate KC of FIG. 78 is provided as a substrate to which the surface mount type connector KCN of FIG. 78 is soldered as a surface mount type connector. The housing of the surface mount type connector KCN is formed of resin, and the housing of the surface mount type connector KCN is provided with a metal housing fixing portion. Specifically, the housing of the surface mount type connector KCN is formed of a non-conductive resin. Metal casing fixing portions are provided on both sides (left side and right side) of the casing of the surface mount type connector KCN. This casing fixing part is electrically connected to the ground of the substrate KC by being soldered to the substrate KC.

  As described above, the metal housing fixing portion is soldered to the substrate KC to the resin housing of the surface mount type connector KCN, so that each terminal of the surface mount type connector KCN is simply soldered to the substrate KC. Compared with the case where it is attached, the surface mounting type connector KCN can be more firmly fixed to the substrate KC. Therefore, peeling of the copper foil of the board | substrate KC by the load to the surface mount type connector KCN can be suppressed.

  Further, according to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment described above, the board KC of FIG. 78 is provided as a board to which the housing of the surface mount type connector KCN of FIG. 78 is soldered as a connector. As the copper foil surface to be bonded to the base material KCo of the substrate KC of FIG. 79 as the base material of the substrate KC, the surface (mounting surface) of the substrate KC of FIG. 78 has a copper foil surface KCxp of the surface mount type connector KCN. The housing fixing pad KSPF in FIG. 78 is formed as a housing fixing joint where both sides of the housing (metal housing fixing portions provided on the left side and the right side) are soldered. Some have a delamination inhibiting portion that is covered with a resist. Specifically, the peeling prevention unit may be a state in which the outer peripheral portion of the casing fixing pad KSPF is covered with a resist from the rectangular outer periphery of the casing fixing pad KSPF to the inside of the casing fixing pad KSPF. it can.

  As described above, the case fixing pad KSPF which is the case fixing joint is formed on the copper foil surface KCxp bonded to the base material KCo of the substrate KC, and a part of the case fixing pad KSPF includes a resist. Therefore, the peel strength can be increased by the peel restraining portion coated with the resist so that the housing fixing pad KSPF is not peeled from the substrate KC. Therefore, peeling of the copper foil of the board | substrate KC by the load to the surface mount type connector KCN can be suppressed.

  Further, a thermal pattern KCxb of FIG. 78 is applied as a thermal pattern to the casing fixing pad KSPF which is a casing fixing joint. By soldering both sides (metal housing fixing portions provided on the left and right sides) of the surface mount type connector KCN, which is a connector, to each case fixing pad KSPF of the substrate KC by the thermal pattern KCxb. At this time, the heat for melting the solder can be prevented from being taken away from the outer periphery of the housing fixing pad KSPF.

  Further, the resist solution is formed on the copper foil surface of the substrate KC so that an opening smaller than the copper foil region of the housing fixing pad KSPF is formed at a position corresponding to the housing fixing pad KSPF which is the housing fixing joint. Is to be applied. Specifically, the opening smaller than the copper foil region of the housing fixing pad KSPF is specifically coated with a resist solution on the surface (mounting surface) of the surface (mounting surface) KCx of the substrate KC. Although the side resist layer KCxr is formed, in the surface (mounting surface) side resist layer KCxr, the region corresponding to each pad KSP has a pad surface (mounting surface side) having the same shape as each pad KSP. A side resist opening is formed, and a region (mounting surface) side of the case fixing pad having an opening rectangular shape smaller than the rectangular shape of each case fixing pad KSPF in an area corresponding to each case fixing pad KSPF A resist opening KCxra is formed. As a result, the entire outer peripheral portion of the housing fixing pad KSPF, which is the housing fixing joint, can be in a resist-covered state, so that a high peel strength can be achieved against loads from multiple directions on the housing fixing pad KSPF. It can be uniform.

  Further, according to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment described above, the board KC of FIG. 80 is provided as a board to which the housing of the surface mount type connector KCN of FIG. 80 is soldered. As the copper foil surface to be bonded to the base material KCo of the substrate KC, the surface (mounting surface) of the substrate KC in FIG. 80 is disposed on both sides (left and right sides) of the housing of the surface mount type connector KCN. 80 is formed as a case fixing joint portion to which a metal case fixing portion provided in each case is soldered, and is connected to the case fixing pad KSPF and is surface-mounted. The land KCTH in FIG. 80 is formed as a case fixing non-joining portion in which both sides (metal housing fixing portions provided on the left and right sides) of the connector KCN are not soldered, and a part of the land KCTH is formed. (Specifically, the outer peripheral portion of the land KCTH is covered with the resist from the outer periphery of the outer diameter of the land KCTH toward the center of the land KCTH. The resist solution is coated on state) as copper foil surface KCxp.

  As described above, the case fixing pad KSPF in FIG. 80 which is the case fixing joint and the land KCTH in FIG. 80 which is the case non-joining portion are formed on the copper foil surface KCxp bonded to the base material KCo of the substrate KC. At the same time, the land KCTH is partially covered with the resist (that is, the outer periphery of the land KCTH is covered with the resist from the outer periphery of the land KCTH toward the center of the land KCTH). Since the resist solution is applied on the copper foil surface KCxp, the case fixing that is the case fixing joint is provided so that the case fixing pad KSPF to which the resist solution is not applied does not peel from the substrate KC. The peel strength can be increased by the resist covering a part of the land KCTH which is a case fixing non-joining portion connected to the pad KSPF. Therefore, peeling of the copper foil of the board | substrate KC by the load to the surface mount type connector KCN can be suppressed.

  Further, according to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment described above, the main body frame side of FIG. 74 is used as a board on which each terminal PN of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN of FIG. A relay board KB is provided. Silk printing is performed on the resist between the terminals PN of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN on the surface of the main body frame side relay connector (recess type) DCN on the surface of the main body frame side relay board KB where the terminals PN of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN are soldered. It has the solder separation part formed by. Examples of the solder separation unit include the horizontal line KSH1, the vertical line KSV1, and the region KSA1 surrounded by a rectangular shape in FIG.

  As described above, since the solder separation portion formed by silk printing is provided on the resist between the terminals PN of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN, the main body frame side relay substrate KB is allowed to flow into the solder bath. When this occurs, it is necessary for the solder to flow past the solder separation part, and when the solder separation part tries to stay in the resist by the solder separation part, the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) ) It is possible to suppress solder bridges between the terminals PN of the DCN. Therefore, solder bridge can be suppressed.

  Further, the solder separating portion has a horizontal line KSH1 of FIG. 74 as a first solder separating portion in a direction different from the direction in which the main body frame side relay substrate KB flows into the solder bath. Thus, when the main body frame side relay board KB is poured into the solder bath, the main body frame side relay is placed on the resist of the main body frame side relay board KB between the terminals PN of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN. Since the horizontal line KSH1, which is the first solder separation portion, is printed by silk printing in a direction different from the direction in which the substrate KB flows to the solder bath, the solder needs to flow beyond the horizontal line KSH1, and the horizontal line KSH1 causes the solder to flow. By acting as a force to separate the solder by trying to stay on the resist, solder bridges between the terminals P of the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN can be suppressed.

  Further, the solder separating portion has a vertical line KSV1 of FIG. 74 as the second solder separating portion in the same direction as the direction in which the main body frame side relay substrate KB flows into the solder bath. As a result, when the main body frame side relay board KB is poured into the solder bath, the main body frame side relay is placed between the terminals PN of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN and on the resist of the main body frame side relay board KB. Since the vertical line KSV1 which is the second solder separation portion is printed by silk printing in the same direction as the direction in which the substrate KB flows to the solder bath, the solder flows along the vertical line KSV1 and on the vertical line KSV1. As the solder flowing through the vertical line KSV1 tries to stay in the resist by the solder, the solder is separated, so that the solder bridge between the terminals PN of the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is suppressed. be able to.

  The solder separating unit surrounds each terminal PN of the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN as a predetermined figure by a region KSA1 surrounded by the rectangular shape of FIG. 74 and is surrounded by a rectangular shape which is a predetermined figure. The area KSA1 is solidly coated on the resist except for portions corresponding to the terminals PN of the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN. Accordingly, each terminal PN of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN is surrounded by a region KSA1 surrounded by a rectangular shape which is a predetermined figure, and the main body frame side drawer is within the region KSA1 surrounded by the rectangular shape. Since the connector (concave type) DCN is solid-printed by silk printing except for the portion corresponding to each terminal PN of the DCN, the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) from the surface of the area KSA1 surrounded by the silk-printed rectangular shape ) Looking at each terminal PN of the DCN, it becomes a recessed area because it is not printed by silk printing, and when viewed from the resist surface, the area KSA1 surrounded by the rectangular shape printed with silk is a slightly high plateau It becomes the state of. As a result, when the main body frame side relay board KB is poured into the solder bath, the solder needs to flow over a small high plateau called a region KSA1 surrounded by a silk-printed rectangular shape by flowing over the resist. The amount of solder flowing on the area KSA1 surrounded by the rectangular shape can be suppressed, and the portion corresponding to each terminal PN of the body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN not printed by silk printing is rectangular. When the solder flows into the recessed area formed as a region KSA1 surrounded by a rectangular shape printed on the silk, a small plateau called KSA1 surrounded by a silk-printed rectangular shape is overcome from the recessed region. The body frame side drawer connector (concave type) due to the force that separates the solder by trying to stay without being able to The solder bridge between the terminals PN of CN can be suppressed.

  Further, among the terminals PN of the main body frame side drawer connector (concave type) DCN, the terminal of the last stage in the advancing direction in which the main body frame side relay board KB flows to the solder bath is a terminal different from the terminal of the last stage ( Unlike the land KTH1 which is a joint portion to which the solder escape pattern KNP1 to which the solder escape pattern KNP1 is not connected in FIG. It is formed on the copper foil surface. Thereby, since the solder flowing from the traveling direction can flow well backward, the occurrence of a solder bridge can be suppressed.

  Further, according to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment described above, the capacitor MC30 in FIG. 65, the Schmitt trigger inverter MIC30 in FIG. 65, and the logic ICSMD1 and SMD2 that are SMD type electronic components in FIG. A main control board 1310 of FIG. 69 is provided as a game control board to be mounted. On the main control board 1310, wiring patterns TR1a, TR1c, TR1b of FIG. 69 are formed as wiring portions for connecting a plurality of electronic components. This wiring portion is a normal through-hole shown in FIG. 69 (avoidance of obstacles) as a first interlayer connection portion that avoids the wiring pattern TR of FIG. 69 as an obstacle in routing the wiring connecting the electronic components. Through-hole) for MTH 'and the wiring that connects the electronic components, regardless of the presence of obstacles (for example, when wiring patterns are routed to electronic components, other electronic components, other wiring patterns, etc.) A through hole TR1at having the inspection machine land pattern of FIG. 69 is provided as a second interlayer connection portion for interlayer connection.

  In this way, a normal through hole (through hole for avoiding an obstacle) MTH ′ that avoids an obstacle in routing the wiring connecting the electronic components and connects the layers has an outer diameter of a normal land pattern, As described above, since it is 0.6 mm, which is less than the minimum contact probe contact diameter (1.5 mm in this embodiment), a normal land pattern may also be able to contact the contact probe, Given the general connectivity, it cannot be used in electrical testing. Even when a normal through hole (through hole for avoiding an obstacle) MTH ′ that avoids an obstacle in routing the wiring connecting the electronic parts and connects between the layers cannot be used in the electrical inspection, This normal through hole (through hole for avoiding obstacles) MTH ′ and the through hole TR1at having the land pattern for the inspection machine regardless of the presence of the obstacle in routing the wiring connecting the electronic components Since the wiring patterns TR1a, TR1c, TR1b between the components are connected to each other, electrical inspection can be performed by using the through hole TR1at having the land pattern for the inspection machine. Therefore, electrical inspection of the main control board 1310 on which electronic components are mounted can be performed.

  Further, one of the leads of the SMD type electronic component SMD1 which is a surface mount type electronic component is electrically connected to a rectangular land pattern which is a joint portion to be soldered, and the other is a land pattern for an inspection machine. The wiring pattern TR1a is electrically connected to the through-hole TR1at having the wiring pattern TR1a, and one is electrically connected to the through-hole TR1at having the land pattern for the inspection machine and the other is a normal through-hole (failure Through hole for avoiding objects) As a second wiring portion electrically connected to MTH ′, wiring pattern TR1c is electrically connected to normal through hole (through hole for avoiding obstacles) MTH ′. The lead of the SMD type electronic component SMD2 which is connected and the other is another surface mount type electronic component is soldered Since the wiring pattern TR1b is electrically connected to the rectangular land pattern that is the joint portion to be connected, the lead of the surface mounting type electronic component and the other surface mounting type The electrical inspection can be performed using the electrical connection between the electronic component leads.

  Further, for example, the through holes TR1at and TR2at having the land pattern for the inspection machine are separated from each other by the contact probe contact prevention distance or more as a predetermined distance dimension. Therefore, in the electrical inspection of the main control board 1310, It is possible to prevent the contact probe brought into contact with the through hole TR1at having the land pattern from coming into contact with the through hole TR2at having the land pattern for the inspection machine.

  Further, according to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment described above, the peripheral control board 1510 of FIG. 82 is provided as a board on which the peripheral control IC 1510a of FIG. 82 is mounted as an electronic component, and the cover body 1501 of FIG. As a control device in which the base body 1502 is formed of a conductive member and the peripheral control board 1510 is attached to the casing, the peripheral control unit 1500 of FIG. 82 is provided. Peripheral control unit 1500 has a ground path part and a non-ground path part. The ground path section is a path where the casing of the peripheral control unit 1500 is connected to the ground (GND) (board ground) of the peripheral control board 1510, and the casing of the peripheral control unit 1500 is the peripheral control of the non-ground path section. This path is not connected to the ground (GND) (substrate ground) of the substrate 1510.

  Specifically, as described above, the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 are all made of a conductive resin containing carbon in polycarbonate, and the cover body 1501 (cover flat plate 1501a). When various substrates such as the peripheral control substrate 1510, the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are respectively fixed to the back surface side of the metal plate by metal pan screws, they are electrically connected to these grounds (GND). And the same ground (GND). For this reason, in this embodiment, the peripheral control is performed from the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 formed in the base body 1502 by the noise that has entered the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 via the foil removal region 1510ya. A “noise-free route” that cannot enter the solid ground on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the substrate is formed as a non-ground path portion, and also enters the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503. The noise can be removed by forming a “route through which noise can be removed” as a ground path portion through which the generated noise flows to the substrate ground (grounds (GND) of various substrates) via the metal pan-screw described above. It is like that.

  In this manner, in the state where the peripheral control board 1510 on which the peripheral control IC 1510a that is an electronic component is mounted is attached to the peripheral control unit 1500 in which the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502 that are the casing are formed of a conductive member. The noise that has entered the casing of the peripheral control unit 1500 does not pass through the “route where noise cannot escape” through the non-ground path portion, but does not pass through the peripheral control board 1510 via the “route through which noise passes”. Therefore, it is an electronic component that is mounted on the peripheral control board 1510 by limiting the path through which noise is removed to the “route through which noise is released”, which is the ground path portion. The influence of noise on the peripheral control IC 1510a can be prevented. Therefore, the noise resistance of the peripheral control board 1510 can be improved.

  In addition, the “route where noise is not lost” which is a non-ground path portion includes disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 and disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 as rib portions of the base body 1502 which is a casing of the peripheral control unit 1500. 85. As the copper foil peeling area formed in the area that contacts the peripheral control board 1510, the foil removing area 1510ya of FIG. 85 is configured, and therefore the disconnection prevention rib portion of the base body 1502 that is the casing of the peripheral control unit 1500 By forming a foil removal region 1510ya in a region where 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 abuts on the peripheral control board 1510, noise that has entered the cover body 1501 and the base body 1502 that are the casing of the peripheral control unit 1500 is removed. Disconnection of base body 1502 which is a body It can be prevented from entering the peripheral control board 1510 through the stop rib portion 1502Aa1～1502aa3.

  Further, according to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment described above, the peripheral control board 1510 of FIG. 82 is provided as a board on which the peripheral control IC 1510a of FIG. 82 is mounted as an electronic component, and the cover body 1501 of FIG. As a control device in which the base body 1502 is formed of a conductive member and the peripheral control board 1510 is attached to the casing, the peripheral control unit 1500 of FIG. 82 is provided. The peripheral control board 1510 has an attachment part and a protection part. The attachment portion has a copper foil portion that is electrically connected to the ground (GND) of the peripheral control board 1510. Specifically, the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 and 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 are formed on the peripheral control board 1510 of FIGS. The protective part is configured to cover at least a part of the copper foil part in the attachment part and suppress damage to the copper foil part. Specifically, the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the front surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 and the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 in FIGS. The copper foil which is the surface is soldered so as not to be exposed, and various shapes of the resist of FIG. 86, and the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510 and the periphery The lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the control board 1510 are soldered so that the copper foil as the surface thereof is not exposed. This solder electrically connects the mounting surfaces (boss surfaces) of mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a and the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510. In addition to being covered so as to be connectable, the back surface (solder surface) of the peripheral control board 1510 is electrically connected to the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the 1510y side and the seat surface (head seat surface) of the pan portion of the metal pan head screw. It is covered so that it can be connected. In addition, the various shapes of the resist shown in FIG. 86 can be made uniform so that soldering does not partially rise on the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rf1 to 1510rf4 on the surface (mounting surface) of the peripheral control board 1510. The solder thus soldered is attached to the mounting surface (boss surface) of the mounting boss holes 1501ag1 to 1501ag4 formed on the back surface side of the cover flat plate 1501a, and the land 1510rf1 on the surface (mounting surface) 1510x side of the peripheral control board 1510. Are coated so that they can be electrically connected to each other, and are soldered to the copper foil which is the surface of the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 by various shapes of the resist of FIG. That can be made uniform so that it does not rise The solder thus soldered electrically connects the lands 1510rb1 to 1510rb4 on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y side of the peripheral control board 1510 and the seat surface (the seat surface of the head) of the pan portion of the metal pan screw. It is covered so that it can be connected.

  As described above, the noise that has entered the casing of the peripheral control unit 1500 due to the electrical connection between the casing of the peripheral control unit 1500 and the copper foil portion of the mounting portion causes the copper foil of the mounting portion of the peripheral control board 1510 to be connected. The connection to the ground (GND) (substrate ground) of the peripheral control board 1510 can be made through the unit and is electrically connected to the ground (GND) (substrate ground) of the peripheral control board 1510. In the state in which the peripheral control board 1510 is attached to the casing of the peripheral control unit 1500 by damaging the copper foil part of the peripheral part by the protective part, the casing of the peripheral control unit 1500 and the copper foil part of the peripheral control board 1510 It is possible to improve the electrical connectivity with. Therefore, the noise resistance of the peripheral control board 1510 can be improved.

  Moreover, since the thickness of the solder soldered to the surface of the copper foil part is made uniform, the protective part has no portion where the solder is raised on the surface of the copper foil part, and the peripheral control Since a reduction in the contact area between the cover body 1501 which is the casing of the unit 1500 and the copper foil portion of the peripheral control board 1510 can be suppressed, electrical connectivity can be improved.

  In addition, since the protective portion has various shapes of the resist of FIG. 86 as a solder amount suppressing portion that partially covers the surface of the copper foil portion and suppresses the amount of soldering to the copper foil portion, the peripheral control board A part of the surface of the copper foil portion electrically connected to the ground (GND) of 1510 is covered with the solder amount suppressing portion, thereby uniformizing the amount of solder soldered to the surface of the copper foil portion. Therefore, when the substrate is attached to the casing of the peripheral control unit 1500 formed by the conductive member, the electrical connection between the cover body 1501 that is the casing of the peripheral control unit 1500 and the copper foil portion of the peripheral control board 1510 Connectivity can be improved.

  Further, according to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment described above, the connector SCK of FIG. 110A as the first connector mounted on the relay substrate KD of FIG. 110A as the substrate, and one end of the electrical wiring And a connector PLG shown in FIG. 110 (a) as a second connector that is electrically connected to the first connector and is inserted into and removed from the first connector. In the relay board KD, the relay board KD in FIG. 110B is used as a fitting reference portion that can determine whether the connector PLG as the second connector has been normally inserted into the connector SCK as the first connector. The lower end side KDeg and the lower side DSLKeg of the component arrangement line DSLK of the connector SCK in FIG. 111B are provided.

  As described above, the lower end side KDeg of the relay board KD, which is a fitting reference portion that can determine whether or not the connector PLG as the second connector has been normally inserted into the connector SCK as the first connector, and the connector SCK. Since the relay board KD has the lower side DSLKeg of the component placement line DSLK, a staff member such as a game hall clerk or an operator of the manufacturer of the pachinko machine 1 is the connector SCK and the second connector which are the first connectors. When connecting to the connector PLG or confirming the connection, the connector PLG, which is the second connector, is connected to the lower end side KDeg of the relay board KD, which is the fitting reference portion, and the lower side DSLKeg of the component placement line DSLK of the connector SCK. The state of being normally inserted into the connector SCK, which is one connector, can be easily determined. Therefore, it is possible to contribute to improving the efficiency of confirmation work.

  Further, the connector PLG as the second connector is a surface of the main body PLGb of the connector PLG which is a surface opposite to the side inserted into the connector SCK in a state where the connector PLG is normally inserted into the connector SCK as the first connector. Since the lower side PLGbb matches the lower end side KDeg of the relay board KD as the fitting reference part and the lower side DSLKeg of the component placement line DSLK of the connector SCK, it is opposite to the side inserted into the connector SCK. By using the lower side surface PLGbb of the main body PLGb of the connector PLG which is the surface, it is possible to confirm the match with the lower end side KDeg of the relay substrate KD which is the fitting reference portion and the lower side DSLKeg of the component placement line DSLK of the connector SCK.

  The fitting reference portion is the lower end side KDeg of the relay board KD, which is the end side of the relay board KD, and the connector PLG, which is the second connector, is normally inserted into the connector SCK, which is the first connector. It is possible to determine whether the connector PLG as the second connector protrudes outside the relay board KD from the lower end side KDeg of the relay board KD, which is the end side of the relay board KD. Whether or not the connector PLG as the second connector is normally inserted into the connector SCK as the first connector can be determined using a tactile sense.

  The fitting reference portion is a component placement line DSLK of the connector SCK, which is a component placement figure indicating the placement of the connector SCK that is the first connector mounted on the relay board KD, and the connector PLG that is the second connector. Is a state in which the connector PLG as the second connector is normally inserted into the connector SCK as the first connector, the lower side DSLKeg of the component placement line DSLK of the connector SCK where the connector PLG as the second connector is the end side of the component placement figure. Therefore, the connector PLG as the second connector is normally inserted into the connector SCK as the first connector because it can be determined whether or not it protrudes outside the component placement line DSLK of the connector SCK. Whether or not can be determined using vision.

  Further, according to the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment described above, the peripheral control board 1510 of FIG. 82 is provided as a board on which the peripheral control IC 1510a of FIG. 82 is mounted as an electronic component, and the cover body 1501 of FIG. As a control device in which the base body 1502 is formed of a conductive member and the peripheral control board 1510 is attached to the casing, the peripheral control unit 1500 of FIG. 82 is provided. Peripheral control unit 1500 has a ground path part and a non-ground path part. The ground path section is a path where the casing of the peripheral control unit 1500 is connected to the ground (GND) (board ground) of the peripheral control board 1510, and the casing of the peripheral control unit 1500 is the peripheral control of the non-ground path section. This path is not connected to the ground (GND) (substrate ground) of the substrate 1510.

  Specifically, as described above, the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 are all made of a conductive resin containing carbon in polycarbonate, and the cover body 1501 (cover flat plate 1501a). When various substrates such as the peripheral control substrate 1510, the peripheral data ROM substrate 1520, and the liquid crystal output substrate 1530 are respectively fixed to the back surface side of the metal plate by metal pan screws, they are electrically connected to these grounds (GND). And the same ground (GND). For this reason, in this embodiment, the peripheral control is performed from the disconnection prevention rib portions 1502aa1 to 1502aa3 formed in the base body 1502 by the noise that has entered the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503 via the foil removal region 1510ya. A “noise-free route” that cannot enter the solid ground on the back surface (solder surface) 1510y of the substrate is formed as a non-ground path portion, and also enters the cover body 1501, the base body 1502, and the wiring cover body 1503.
