DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A pachinko machine according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that components having the same functions as those in the related art are denoted by the same reference numerals. FIG. 1 is a front view of the gaming board, 1 is a winning opening, and 2 is a symbol display device in which a symbol starts to change and stops at a predetermined time when a gaming ball enters the winning opening 1.
In addition, an electric tulip 3 is provided as a receiving device 3 for restricting the reception of the game ball at a lower portion thereof, and the electric tulip 3 matches a symbol in which the symbol display of the symbol display 2 is stopped with a preset symbol. It is configured to be in the open state for a set time to facilitate the reception of the game ball. In the present embodiment, the winning opening 1, the symbol display 2, the receiving device 3
Constitutes a special winning device. 2 is a front view of FIG. 2 and a side sectional view (A to A of FIG. 2) is shown in FIG. 3, and 41 is an entrance for receiving a game ball P passing through the electric tulip 3. A main detector 42 for detecting the game ball P is provided at a position where the entrance 41 is suspended.
The main detector 42 is a proximity switch, and also serves as a game ball holder 43. In addition, a specific winning opening 45 is provided at a position directly below the entrance 41 at a lower portion of the distribution device 40.
A prize port 44 is provided at both ends thereof, and a regulating member 46 for opening and closing the specific prize port 45 is attached to the electromagnet 47 via a spring 48 so that the right lapse preventing means is provided.
Configure. In addition, a large prize winning device 11 that maintains an open state for a certain time at the time of a large prize is installed below the distribution device 40. On the other hand, on the right side of the electric tulip 3, another prize winning device 8 is provided. In this prize winning device 8, a rotating body 9 having a notch 10 is rotated at a constant period (for example, 12 seconds), and a game ball stored in the notch 10 is started by the rotating body.
Entering the prize mouth 5 is awarded .

Next, the operation of the above configuration will be described. Normally (in the non-prize right state) , the regulating member 46 of the distribution device 40 is in a state where the electromagnet 47 is in the “OFF” state and the reaction force of the spring 48 causes As shown in the figure, the closed state of the specific winning opening 45 is maintained. In such a state, when the game ball enters the winning opening 1, the symbol of the symbol display 2 fluctuates, and after the symbol coincides with a preset symbol, the electric tulip as the receiving device 3 is opened for a predetermined time. Become a state and accept a game ball. The game ball P discharged from the electric tulip 3 enters from the entrance 41 of the distribution device 40. on the other hand,
Since the specific winning opening 45 is closed by the restricting member 46 that constitutes a right extinguishing prevention means, the game ball Pa is held by the restricting member 46 and the holder 43 as shown in FIGS. At the same time, it is detected by the main detector 42 installed above the regulating member 46. The game ball P is detected by the detector 42.
When “a” is detected, it is in a so-called special prize right state.
Then, when another game ball enters another prize winning device 8, that is, when the game ball is stored in the notch portion 10 and wins in the start winning prize port 5, it is determined to be a large prize, and the large prize prize device 11 is set for a set time (for example, 1
0 seconds) or set the number (for example, create up to 10) to win
Move from a disadvantaged state to an advantageous state for the player.
Become During this special prize right state, the game ball enters the winning opening 1 again, the symbol on the symbol display 2 fluctuates, and the symbol coincides with a preset symbol, and the electric tulip 3

Since there is a game ball Pa in 3, the game ball is a specific winning opening 4.
5 is discharged to the winning opening 44 without entering. That is,
During the special prize right state, the game ball does not enter the specific winning opening 45 again. For this reason, the player does not need to aim at and shoot at another portion while paying attention not to enter the winning opening 1 as in the related art. If the special prize right state is in effect, the large prize winning device 11 repeats the open state until the set number (for example, 16) enters the start winning prize port 5, and when the set number of times ends, the special prize right state disappears. Then, the regulating member 46 causes the electromagnet 47 to be temporarily turned “ON” to open the specific winning opening 45 as shown in FIG.
Is discharged to the specific winning opening 45 and the game is continued.

Next, FIG. 5 shows a side cross section of the distribution device 40, and FIG. 3 shows that a sub-detector 50 for detecting a game ball P entering a specific winning opening 45 is located below the regulating member 46 and is specified. It is installed in the passage of the winning opening 45. Thus, the sub-detector 50
The operation in the case where is installed below the regulating member 46 will be described. The regulating member 46 of the distribution device 40 uses the elastic force of the spring 48 because the electromagnet 47 is “OFF”, as shown in FIG.
As shown in the figure, the closed state of the specific winning opening 45 is maintained.
In this state, when the game ball enters the winning opening 1, the symbol display 2
After the symbol fluctuates and the symbol coincides with a preset symbol, the electric tulip, which is the receiving device 3, is opened for a certain period of time to accept a game ball. The game balls discharged from the electric tulip 3 are distributed to the distribution device 4.
The ball enters from the entrance 41 of 0. On the other hand, since the specific winning opening 45 is closed by the regulating member 46, the game ball P
5a is held by the regulating member 46 and the holder 43 as shown in FIG. Then, when the time during which the electric tulip 3 is open has elapsed, the electromagnet 47 is temporarily turned “ON” to operate the regulating member 46 to discharge the game ball Pa to the specific winning opening 45. At this time, the sub-detector 50 detects the game ball Pa, and at this time, a so-called special prize right state is established. Needless to say, when the sub-detector 50 does not detect the game ball Pa, it is not in the special prize right state.
Then, when another game ball enters another prize winning device 8, that is, when the game ball is accommodated in the notch portion 10 and enters the start winning prize port 5 , it is determined that a large prize is won and the large prize winner 11 is set for a set time (for example, 1
0 seconds) or set the number (for example, create up to 10) to win
Move to an advantageous state for the player. During this special prize right state, the game ball enters the winning opening 1, the symbol of the symbol display 2 fluctuates, and the symbol coincides with a preset symbol, and the game ball discharged from the electric tulip 3 is moved. When the ball enters from the entrance 41 of the distribution device 40, the game ball Pa is configured to remain in the holder 43 as shown in FIG. That is, during the special prize right state, the regulating member 46 is not opened by a signal from the receiving device 3, so that a new game ball is discharged to the winning opening 44 without entering the specific winning opening 45. In this way, during the special prize right state, the special winning opening 4
5 is not discharged to the player, so that the player does not need to aim at and shoot at another place, as in the related art, so as not to enter the winning opening 1. Then, when the open state for the set number of times of the grand prize winning device 11 ends and the special prize right state ends, the regulating member 46 turns the electromagnet 47 “ON” to open the state. Therefore, if there is a game ball in the regulating member 46, the game ball is discharged to the specific winning opening 45 and detected by the sub-detector 50. As a result, the special prize right state is again established. That is, the special prize right state can be continuously set, and a large winning prize can be continuously performed for the player, and the interest of the game is further improved.

FIG. 6 is a side sectional view showing another sorting device 40, in which a main detector 42 and a sub-detector 50 are installed above and below a regulating member 46 corresponding to a specific winning opening 45. 42 is a main detector, 43 is a game ball holder, and 50 is a sub-detector.
