DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 3, the winning device of this embodiment is provided on a board 2 in a front glass 1 in a pachinko machine.
This is a prize-winning device that outputs a prize signal that causes a prize or a fever in relation to a pachinko ball driven into the board 2, but if the prize signal is only a signal that causes a prize ball to be paid out. In addition, for example, a device that increases the possibility of winning of another winning device (for example, what is called a V winning) is also included.

As shown in FIG. 3, the winning device includes an introduction unit 10, a stage unit 20, a contact member (delivery unit).
30. The introduction means 10 guides the pachinko balls that have been driven into the board surface 2 and fallen to predetermined positions to the stage section 20, and in this case, a pachinko ball intake hole provided at a position above the stage section 20 on the board surface 2. 11 and
An introduction gutter 12 is provided in the board surface 2 and guides the pachinko balls that have entered the take-in holes 11 onto a first stage 21 of the stage section 20, which will be described later. In addition, an intake guide 13 is provided on the front surface of the intake hole 11.

As shown in FIG. 1, the stage section 20 is disposed horizontally on the punching section 3 of the board 2 and has
In this case, four annular stages 21 to 24 are provided. The annular stages 21 to 24 are concentrically arranged along a horizontal plane, and each independently horizontally rotate by a driving mechanism (not shown) built in the stage unit 20, for example. The direction of rotation is different between adjacent annular stages. In addition, each of the annular stages 21 and 2
4, a plurality of falling holes 25 are formed in some places where pachinko balls fall and are collected as, for example, out balls.

A winning opening 26 is provided inside the innermost final stage 24 of the annular stages (the center position of each annular stage), and when a pachinko ball falls there, an internal winning detection sensor (illustrated) ) Is configured to detect this and output a winning signal. The pachinko balls that have fallen into the falling holes 25 and the winning openings 26 of the respective annular stages 21 to 24 are collected in the pachinko island by, for example, a collecting gutter 27 arranged as shown in FIG. A guide rail 27 is provided on the upper edge of the punched-out portion 3 on which the stage section 20 is provided on the board surface 2 so that the pachinko balls do not fall directly on the annular stages 21 to 24 from above the board surface 2. Have been.

In this case, the abutment member 30 is fixedly attached to the upper edge of the punched portion 3 on the board surface 2 and is mounted on the annular stage at the tip extending on each of the annular stages 21 to 24 and is rotated on the annular stage. An inclined surface 31 is formed to abut the pachinko ball to be pushed and to push the pachinko ball inward. Although only one contact member is shown in the drawing, the contact members 30 are provided at different positions for each of the annular stages.

Next, the operation will be described. In the above winning device,
When the pachinko ball falls to the position of the intake hole 11, this pachinko ball P is first guided to the first stage 21 by the introduction gutter 12, as shown in FIG. Next, if the pachinko ball P does not fall into the drop hole 25, the pachinko ball P rotates on the first stage 21 and comes to a position where the contact member 30 is located.
As shown in FIG. 2, it is pushed out to the inner annular stage 22 and is rotated on the stage 22 in the opposite direction, and is further fed out onto the inner annular stage 23 by the contact member 30 corresponding to the stage 22. Is repeated by the number of the annular stages 21 to 24 (four times in this case), and finally, it is fed inward from the final stage 24 and falls into the winning opening 26.

When the pachinko ball P is placed on the first stage 21 by the introduction gutter 12 or when the abutment member 3
0 causes the pachinko ball P to move to the inner annular stage 22-24.
If the pachinko ball P falls at that position when it is transferred to the vehicle, the pachinko ball P falls and is collected as an out ball, for example. It happens by accident every stage 21-24.

That is, since each of the annular stages 21 to 24 is independently horizontally rotated, a position where the pachinko ball P is guided by the introduction gutter 12 and a position where the pachinko ball P is fed out by the abutting member 30 are set as follows. Each annular stage 21-2
With or without the four drop holes 25, this possibility changes for each of the annular stages 21 to 24. For this reason, the pachinko ball P guided by the introduction means 10 is:
Only in the event of falling into the winning opening 26 at the risk of being collected many times while making such a complicated movement,
A prize signal which is detected by the prize detection sensor and causes a prize or the like is output.

Therefore, the player can enjoy the thrill many times over a long time as to whether or not one pachinko ball enters the winning opening 26, and the interest of the game is improved.

In the above embodiment, the case is described in which the pachinko balls that have fallen into the falling holes of the annular sensors are collected as out balls, but the present invention is not limited to this.
For example, it is also possible to provide a sensor for detecting a pachinko ball that has fallen into the falling hole of each annular sensor, and to function as a winning opening. In this case, the same thrill can be obtained by increasing the prize when the ball falls further inside, for example.

[0023]

According to the winning apparatus of the present invention, the behavior of one pachinko ball before entering the winning opening is complicated, and there is a possibility that the pachinko ball is collected many times before winning. Since the unprecedented thrill can be obtained and the fun of pachinko games increases, it is possible to contribute to an increase in demand for pachinko machines.
