DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a mechanism for replenishing pachinko balls in a ball storage tank provided on the back of a pachinko machine stand or for stopping replenishment.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Pachinko balls that have passed a counter are supplied to a ball storage tank provided on the back of a pachinko machine stand, but a mechanism for stopping supply of pachinko balls when the pachinko machine stand is opened due to a failure. Has been adopted. In particular, as shown in FIG. 7 developed by the inventor of the present application, the lower part of the supply pipe is configured to be able to bend and rotate so as to come out from the upper surface of the ball storage tank by rotating the lower part of the supply pipe upwardly. A structure in which a locking pin is projected from the exit passage portion of the pachinko ball to stop the pachinko ball is effectively used.

[0003] However, it is important to secure pachinko balls when the pachinko machine base is opened, and various pawl mechanisms are provided in addition to the pawls at the exit passage. Because the continuous flow pressure is high, the ball does not stop smoothly and there are many failures.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The details of the present invention will be described below with reference to the illustrated embodiment. In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 6,
Reference numeral 1 denotes a mounting member which can be adjusted up and down by a thumb screw 10 and is fixed to a band plate usually called an island.

Reference numeral 2 denotes a support member in which a fixed supply path 20 is provided, and a rotating member 4 is provided between the support member 2 and the other fixed support member 3.
The rotation member 4 is held so as to be vertically rotatable by holding the both-side shaft cylinder portions 43. The fixed supply path 20 is slightly inclined downward toward the rotating member 4.

The torsion coil spring 5 is inserted into the rotating member 4 with the outer periphery on the supporting member 2 side as a concave step, and one end 51 of the rotating member 4 is engaged with the supporting member 2, and the other end 52 is connected to the rotating member 4. Stopped. Thus, the torsion of the spring 5 urges the turning member 4 to turn upward when viewed from the front.

The rotating member 4 is composed of a main body cylindrical portion 41 disposed between the supporting members 2 and 3 and a supply tube 42 extending at right angles from the main tube portion 41.
Is bent sideways . A curved path portion 410 communicating with the fixed supply path 20 is provided inside the main body cylinder section 41 and communicates with the inner space of the supply pipe body 42. These bend sections 4
A displacement supply path section 40 is formed by 10 and the inner space of the supply pipe.

The bent path portion 410 is formed such that when the rotating member 4 is in the upwardly biased end state when viewed from the front, it is inclined upward in the passing direction as shown in FIG. At the same time, when the rotating member 4 is in a downward rotating state when viewed from the front, as shown in FIG. 6, the rotating member 4 is formed to be inclined downward in the passing direction.

Further, in the connecting portion between the main body tubular portion 41 and the supply pipe 42, the ball stopper piece 12 fixed to the mounting member 1 in the upper rotation end state by the turning member 4 is provided inside the supply pipe 42. It is facing. Reference numeral 415 denotes a stopper protruding from the main body tubular portion 41, which comes into contact with the detent piece 12 to prevent further rotation when the rotating member 4 is located at the lower rotating end. Further, the pressing lever piece 6 is fixed downward below the main body cylindrical portion 41.

Reference numeral 7 denotes a locking pin, one end of which is fixed to the supporting member 4 and the other end of which faces the outlet in the supply pipe 42, and the rotating member 4 rotates upward when viewed from the front. In the biased end state, the other end of the locking pin 7 projects to the outlet in the supply pipe 42 to stop the pachinko ball 9, and in the downward rotation state, the other end of the locking pin 7 is connected to the supply pipe. This is a configuration in which the pachinko ball 9 is retracted from the exit portion in the body 42 and passes therethrough, which is the same as the conventional one.

Reference numeral 8 denotes a solenoid which stops the supply of the pachinko balls 9 to the displacement supply path 40 by causing the locking pin 80 to face the fixed supply path 20 by excitation. This configuration is also a mechanism developed by the present inventor.

In this embodiment constructed as described above, the mounting member 1 is mounted, the supply tube 17 is mounted on the tube holding member 15, and the fixed supply path 20 is communicated with the fixed supply path 20 for use. In this state, as shown in FIG.
Rotates upward, and the pressing lever piece 6 faces downward. When the pachinko machine K is closed from this state, the protruding pressing lever piece 6 is pressed rearward, and the rotating member 4 rotates downward as viewed from the front. It moves and faces the ball storage tank Ka.

Therefore, the curved road portion 410 is
The pachinko ball 9 is replenished to the ball storage tank Ka as shown in FIG. In this state, the flow of the pachinko balls 9 is smooth because the fixed supply path 20 and the curved path section 410 are inclined downward. The other end of the locking pin 7 is also retracted from the outlet in the supply pipe 42 to allow the pachinko balls 9 to pass therethrough.

When the pachinko machine K is opened in the case of an inspection or an abnormality, the pressing on the pressing lever piece 6 is released, and as shown in FIG. 42 rotates upward. Thereby, the ball stopper 12
Protrudes into the curved path portion 410 to stop the pachinko balls 9, and the other end of the locking pin 7 protrudes to the outlet in the supply pipe 42 to stop falling of the pachinko balls 9. In this state, as shown in FIG. 5, the bent road portion 410 is inclined upward in the passing direction.

According to this embodiment, when the replenishment of the pachinko balls 9 is stopped, the continuous flow pressure of the pachinko balls can be reduced because the curved path portion 410 is inclined upward in the passing direction, so that the replenishment path can be reduced. It is easy to stop the ball.
In addition, when replenishing, the replenishment path can be directed downward, so that smooth replenishment can be performed.

Although this embodiment has the above configuration, the present invention is not limited to this configuration. For example, the shape of the fixed supply path and the shape of the bent displacement supply path communicating with the fixed supply path are not limited, and the shape and material of the rotating member provided inside the displacement supply path are not limited.
Further, a configuration is also appropriate in which the bending member of the displacement supply path is inclined upward in the passing direction when the rotation member is in the upper rotation end state when viewed from the front.

Further, the shape of the detent piece that faces the displacement supply path when the rotating member is in the upper rotating end state does not matter. The configuration of the urging means for urging the turning member upward when viewed from the front and the pressing lever piece fixed to the turning member is also arbitrary.

[0020]

According to the present invention, when the supply of pachinko balls is stopped when the pachinko machine base is opened, the pachinko balls protrude to the outlet of the supply pipe.
When the fall of the pachinko ball is stopped by the locking pin,
In addition, since the curved road portion is inclined upward in the passing direction, the continuous flow pressure of the pachinko balls can be reduced , and the ball stopper in the supply path can be easily made by the ball stopper piece .
