【Example】

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. First, a pachinko machine according to an embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. FIG. 1 is a front view of a pachinko machine, FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the pachinko machine from the rear side with the game board removed, and FIG. 3 is a rear view of the game board. is there. In the figure, pachinko machine 1
A metal frame 3, a glass door frame 4 having glass, a front plate 5 and the like are attached to the front face frame 2, and a game board 6 is detachably attached to the back face of the front face frame 2. On the game board 6, a guide rail 8 for guiding a hit ball and defining a game area 7 is planted in a substantially circular shape. Near the center of the game area 7, a plurality of digital displays
A combined display device 10 having 9a-9c is provided.
This combination display device 10 is variably displayed on the digital display devices 9a to 9c when a hit ball is won at the start winning openings 11a to 11c provided on the game board 6, and is provided on the upper portion of the lower plate 18 described later. The variable display state is stopped by the player pressing the stop switch 12 or automatically after a fixed time t ₁ (for example, 5 seconds). The variable display of the digital displays 9a-9c is "0".
The numbers up to "9" are displayed as if they were rotating. Further, below the game area 7, a variable winning device 30 is attached. The variable winning device 30 is provided with an opening / closing plate 31 which is opened / closed by a solenoid which is an electric drive source, and the opening / closing plate 31 is opened / closed under predetermined conditions according to the combination mode of the combination display device 10. It has become so. Specifically, when all the display modes of the digital displays 9a to 9c display the "identical number", it is determined that the display mode is the big hit mode, and the opening / closing plate 31 is held for a predetermined time T (for example, 20 to 20). It is opened until the time (explained for 30 seconds) elapses or until a predetermined number (for example, a number set between 10 and 15) of prize balls is generated, and the opening / closing plate 31 is opened during the opening. When the prize winning ball that has won a prize turns on the V detection switch 32 (FIG. 3), which is the accessory continuous operation device, the opening / closing plate 31 is opened again for a predetermined time or until a predetermined number of prize balls are generated. The operation can be repeated a predetermined number of times as long as a prize ball is won in the accessory continuous operation device and the V detection switch 32 is turned on. By the way, in this embodiment, the plural or big hit display modes are set to two types. That is, as the first type, all the digital displays 9a to 9c are "odd".
When the numbers are displayed, the first big hit display mode is set, and when the numbers “even” are displayed on the digital displays 9a to 9c as the second type, the second big hit display mode is set. . Then, in the first big hit display mode, the number of times of repeating the opening operation of the opening / closing plate 31 of the variable winning device 30 under a predetermined condition is relatively large (for example, 10 times). Further, in the case of the second big hit display mode, the number of times of repeating the opening operation of the opening / closing plate 31 of the variable winning device 30 under a predetermined condition is relatively small (for example, 5 times). As described above, in this embodiment, even if the jackpot display mode is used, the number of repetitions of the variable winning device 30 is different depending on the type, so it is possible to change the degree of excitement when the jackpot is achieved. You can play interesting pachinko games. Further, in the game area 7, there are win holes 13a, 13 with a windmill lamp.

On the front side of the mechanical plate 24 facing the game board 6, the game board 6
The prize-ball collecting recess 26 is formed in a region slightly smaller and larger than the prize-ball collecting protection plate 19, and a window opening 27 slightly smaller than the surface area of the prize-ball collecting protection plate 19 is formed in the prize-ball collecting recess 26. Has been done. The prize-ball collecting recessed portion 26 is formed to have a depth width slightly longer than the depth width of the prize-ball collecting protection plate 19. Further, on the rear surface side of the mechanism plate 24, known parts, devices, mechanisms, etc. for paying out a predetermined number of prize balls corresponding to one winning ball are arranged. Next, the control operation of the control circuit built in the control circuit board box 40 will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. First, when the power is turned on, it is initialized (step S1
0) and then the start counter is checked (step S20). It should be noted that the value of the start counter is incremented by "1" each time a ball hits the start winning openings 11a to 11c, and a maximum of 4 can be stored, and further starting winnings are invalidated. And the starting winning opening 11a-11c
The hit check of the hit ball is performed with a display control of the digital displays 9a to 9c in a regular interrupt routine (not shown). When it is determined in step S20 that the value of the start counter is not "0", "1" is first subtracted from the value N of the start counter (step S30), and the timer t
₁ (for example, 5 seconds) is set (step S40), and then the display of the digital displays 9a to 9c of the combination display device 10 is variably rotated (step S50). Thus, the display rotation digital display 9a~9c, the if the timer t ₁ is the time is up, or the player is carried out until pressing the stop switch 12 (step S60), either of the stop signal is derived Then, this time, the timer t ₂ is set (step S70), and then the display of the digital displays 9a to 9c is stopped (step S80). The timer t ₂ prevents the immediate transition to the next variable display when the value of the start counter is not “0”, and the digital display
It is an interval time taken to allow the player to sufficiently recognize the symbol (number) when 9a to 9c are stopped, and for example, about 2 seconds is set. When it is determined that the timer t ₂ has timed out (step S90), first, the display mode displayed on the digital displays 9a to 9c is the first jackpot display mode, that is, all are "odd". Whether or not it is determined (step S100), and in the case of the first big hit display mode, the upper limit value α of the number of times of opening and closing (the number of repetitions) of the opening / closing plate 31 of the variable winning device 30 is set to “10”. (Step S110). If it is determined in step S100 that it is not the first jackpot display mode, then it is determined whether or not it is the second jackpot display mode, that is, whether or not all are even numbers (step S120). In the case of the big hit display mode, the upper limit value α of the number of times of opening and closing (the number of repetitions) of the opening and closing plate 31 of the variable winning device 30 is set to “5”
Is set (step S130). When it is determined in step S120 that it is not the second big hit display mode, the process returns to the first step S10. In steps S110 and S130, after the upper limit value of the opening / closing number is set, the value of the opening / closing number counter is set to "1".
Is added (step S140), the timer T which is the opening time of the opening / closing plate 31 is set (step S150), the 10-count counter is initialized (step S160), and the variable winning device is set.
The solenoid is turned on to open the opening / closing plate 31 of 30 (step S170). When the solenoid is turned on and the opening / closing plate 31 is opened, it is first determined whether or not a winning ball that has won the opening / closing plate 31 has entered the continuous accessory operating device to turn on the V detection switch 32 (step S180), and is turned on. If it is, the V winning is stored (step S190). Next, it is determined whether or not the number of winning balls that has been won while the opening / closing plate 31 is open has reached 10 (step S20).
0), if the number is not 10, it is determined whether or not the timer T has timed out (step S210).
If the time has not expired, the process returns to step S180, and steps S180 to S210 are repeated. When it is determined in step S200 that the number of winning balls has reached 10, or in step S210, the timer T
If it is determined that the time has expired, the timer t ₃ (for example, 2 seconds), which is the interval time, is set (step S220). Then, the solenoid is turned off (step S230) and the opening / closing plate 31 is closed. Then, until the opening / closing plate 31 is closed and the timer t ₃ is up, the winning balls enter the continuous winning device operating device to detect the V detection switch.
It is determined whether 32 is turned on (step S240), and when it is turned on, V winning is stored (step S250). This is to judge whether or not the winning ball that has won just before the opening / closing plate 31 closes has won the continuous accessory operating device. Even when the winning ball that has just won just wins V, the opening operation is performed. The above can be repeated. When the timer t ₃ has timed out (step S260), it is determined whether or not there is a V winning memory (step S27).
0), if there is V winning memory, it is determined whether or not the value of the opening / closing counter is the value α set in step S110 or step S130 (step S280). When the value of the opening / closing counter is not the set value α, that is, when the repeated opening operation has not been performed the established number of times, the process returns to the step S140, and steps S140 to S280 are repeated. On the other hand, if it is determined in step S270 that there is no V winning memory, or if it is determined in step S280 that the value of the opening / closing counter is the set value α, the jackpot state ends and the first step S10. Return to. As is clear from the above description of the operation, the pachinko machine 1 according to the present embodiment has the number of repeated opening / closing operations under the predetermined conditions of the variable winning a prize device 30 depending on the type of the big hit display mode which is the big hit of the combination display device 10. Since it is controlled differently, it is possible to change the degree of excitement in the big hit,
You can play a pachinko game that is exciting. In the above-described embodiment, the plurality of jackpot display modes are divided into two types (groups) and the number of repetitions of each is different. However, the number of types of grouping may be further increased. Further, as a technical idea similar to the present embodiment, different predetermined conditions of the variable winning device 30 according to the type of big hit display mode (for example, the time in one open state or the number of winning prizes are different). Therefore, the degree of excitement in the big hit may be changed. In this case, the number of repetitions may be the same or different.
