Description of the Related Art In a ball-and-ball game machine such as a pachinko machine, as a prize-winning device mounted on a game board, conventionally, an opening / closing plate is provided on the front side of an opening defined by a plurality of passages. Is opened and closed by opening and closing drive means such as a solenoid, and when a predetermined condition is satisfied, the opening and closing drive means is operated to open the opening and closing plate, and the game balls falling from above are opened and closed by the opening and closing plate to each passage in the opening. There is something to guide. This type of winning device is provided with a detection switch for detecting a game ball passing through a certain passage from among a plurality of passages, and the detection switch detects one game ball while the opening / closing plate performs one opening / closing operation. If detected, it is used in such a manner as to activate another different winning device or the like.

[0003]

The conventional open / close plate is plate-shaped, and merely guides a game ball falling from above to each passage side in the opening in accordance with the position and direction of the drop. While the opening / closing plate performs one opening / closing operation, in some cases, a large number of game balls pass through a specific passage, and the detection switch detects the game ball each time. Therefore, when the detection switch needs to detect the game ball only once at the maximum while the opening / closing plate performs the opening / closing operation once, only the signal when the detection switch detects the first game ball is stored. And the subsequent signals need to be canceled. Also, since all game balls that have entered the opening via the opening / closing plate pass through any of the paths, it is difficult for the player to determine whether or not the game balls have entered a specific path. For this reason,
Even if it is known that when a game ball enters a specific passage, another prize device is activated and a new profit state is obtained, it is difficult to reliably determine that during the game, and in some cases, the next big profit Despite the status being obtained, the game may be abandoned halfway. In view of such a conventional problem, the present invention can limit the maximum number of game balls passing through a specific passage to one opening / closing operation of the opening / closing plate, and determine whether the game ball enters a specific passage. An object of the present invention is to provide a prize winning device for a ball game machine that allows a player to easily and reliably determine whether or not the prize is visually determined.

The detection switch 18 is prevented from entering. Each partition plate 33 is also provided with a protruding portion 47 protruding above the blocking rib 46.

As shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, the solenoid 27 is vertically arranged on the side of the concave wall portion 41, and
48, it is fixed to the mounting base 40 via the boss 49. The movable iron core 50 of the solenoid 27 is urged downward by a spring 51, and the movable iron core 50 is fixed at both upper and lower ends to a rectangular elevating frame 52 surrounding the solenoid 27. The lifting frame 52 is provided between the mounting base 40 and the mounting plate 48 so as to be able to move up and down, and the lifting frame 52 has an arm projecting into the mounting hole 31.
52a are integrally formed. The arm 52a has a notch formed at the tip thereof, and an engaging pin 54 formed eccentrically at one end of the pivot 35 is engaged with the engaging portion 53.

Next, the operation of the above configuration will be described.
Normally, the solenoid 27 is in the demagnetized state, and the lifting frame 52 is urged downward by the spring 51, so that the lifting frame 52 is at the lowered position. For this reason, the opening / closing plate 26 is in a closed position rising upward from the pivot 35 as shown by a dotted line in FIG. 6, and closes the opening 28 from the front side. Therefore, the game ball B falling from above passes through the front side of the opening / closing plate 26 and falls downward. When the game ball B enters the starting gate 14, the symbol display device 13
The symbol of each symbol display section fluctuates for a fixed time. Then, when a stop symbol of each symbol display section of the symbol display device 13 hits, the solenoid 27 of the specific winning device 15 is excited, and the movable iron core 50 rises against the spring 51. As a result, the lifting frame 52 rises, and the engaging pin 54 that engages with the engaging portion 53 at the tip of the arm 52a is lifted upward, so that the opening / closing plate 26 pivots as shown by the solid line in FIGS. It rotates in the direction of arrow a to the open position around 35. At this time, the opening and closing plate 26
Is regulated by a stopper (not shown) in contact with the mounting base 40.

When the open / close plate 26 rotates to the open position, the game ball B falling from above hits the open / close plate 26 and is guided by the open / close plate 26 to the opening 28 side. Go into. At this time, if there are game balls B falling at the left and right central portions of the opening / closing plate 26, as shown in FIG. After hitting 26, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, it is received and stopped by the U-shaped stopping portion 38. Therefore, even if the opening / closing plate 26 is opened, the game ball B immediately passes through the specific passage.
The player does not enter 34a, and the player can visually confirm that the game ball B is in the stop state in the stop portion 38. The game ball B that has fallen to the left and right sides of the opening / closing plate 26 is guided to the opening 28 side by hitting the opening / closing plate 26, and then enters the ball drop passage 42 of the rear case 25 through the left and right passages 34, and from the falling hole 44 It falls down and is collected. If one game ball B stops at the stop portion 38, the subsequent game ball B that falls to the central portion of the opening / closing plate 26 thereafter has the game ball B stopped at the stop portion 38.
B, or after hitting the opening / closing plate 26 or the like, is distributed to both sides of the stop portion 38 and moves to the ball falling passage 42 via the passages 34 on both sides of the opening 28.

When the game ball B is in a stationary state at the stationary portion 38,
If the subsequent game ball B falls on the open / close plate 26, the open / close plate 26 may vibrate up and down. However, the opening / closing plate 26 has a projection 38a for positioning.
The game ball B stopped on the opening / closing plate 26 moves unstably, and once enters the stop portion 38, the stopped game ball B comes off the stop portion 38 unexpectedly. That is, the game ball B can be reliably stopped at the stop portion 38. When a predetermined time elapses after the opening and closing plate 26 is opened, the solenoid 27 is demagnetized, and the movable core 50 and the lifting frame
Since the 52 is lowered, the opening / closing plate 26 is rotated around the pivot 35 in the direction indicated by the arrow a to the closed position, and the opening 28 is closed. Then, the stopping portion 38 tilts backward and the game ball B stopped in the stopping portion 38 moves to the first detection switch 18 side through the specific passage 34a while rolling backward, First
The first detection switch 18 detects the game ball B because it falls downward from the hole of the detection switch 18.

When the first detection switch 18 detects the game ball B, if the game ball B is already in one of the starting ports 11 and 12, the special winning device 16 is operated. The game ball B in the ball drop passage 42 falls down from the drop hole 44 and is detected by the second detection switch 45. The stop 38 is gutter-shaped,
Since it is formed integrally with the opening / closing plate 26, after forming the opening / closing plate 26 and the stopping portion 38 separately, compared with the case where the stopping portion 38 is attached to the opening / closing plate 26, the opening / closing plate 26 and the stopping portion 38 The structure can be simplified, and the strength of the retaining portion 38 itself can be increased. When the stopping portion 38 is formed in a gutter shape, it may be formed in a U-shaped cross section as shown in the first embodiment, or may be formed in a V-shaped cross section, a U-shaped cross section, or the like. A shape having a receiving groove is sufficient.

It is what constituted. The projection 60 is formed integrally with the opening / closing plate 26 with a predetermined gap in the left-right direction so that the game ball B stays therebetween. In the case of the second embodiment, the structure of the opening / closing plate 26 and the stopping portion 38 is simplified, and since the space between the pair of left and right projections 60 is open, dust and the like do not accumulate in the stopping portion 38. 11 and 12 show a third embodiment of the present invention, in which a pair of left and right pin-shaped projections 61 is provided on the opening / closing plate 26, and the stopping portion 38 is constituted by the pair of left and right projections 61. The projection 61 has its base side thicker than its tip. Also in the case of the third embodiment, similarly to the second embodiment, the structures of the open / close plate 26 and the stopping portion 38 are simplified, and accumulation of dust and the like in the stopping portion 38 can be prevented.

FIGS. 13 and 14 show a fourth embodiment of the present invention. A pair of left and right projections 62 is provided on the opening / closing plate 26, and one projection 63 is provided below the pair of left and right projections 62. The stop portion 38 is constituted by these three projections 62 and 63. Each of the protrusions 62 and 63 may have a square cross section or a pin shape. In addition, the stopping portion 38 has a small hemispherical shape. In this case also the second
There is an advantage similar to that of the third embodiment. In each of the embodiments, the specific winning device 15 of the pachinko machine is exemplified as the winning device. However, the present invention is not limited to the pachinko machine or the specific winning device 15, and various types of devices such as an arrangement ball machine are used.
