When the slope 42a hits the stopper 46a and the head 41b is strongly pulled away from the drive drum 40, the button 46 descends following the slope of the protrusion 42. Then, when the tip of the protrusion 42 passes over the stopper 46a, the button 46 is lifted by the spring force as shown in FIG. 8B. As a result, the hammer 41 is locked (locked). Further, the unlocking means 45 is composed of the button 46 itself, the stopper 46a is lowered by the pressing force of the button 46, the locking of the protrusion 42 by the stopper 46a is released, and the hammer 41 is biased by the spring 43b. , The head 41b strongly hits the drive drum 40 to generate a sound. The button 46 is pressed by the rocking body 3 when the rocking body 3 falls.

Next, the way of playing and the overall operation of the game apparatus 1 thus configured will be described.

First, two players who play an arm-wrestling game face each other. The rockers 3 and 3 are erected straight up and brought into contact with each other, and the hammer 41 is pulled. As a result, the hammer 41 is locked to the stopper 46a. Next, along with the signal, the two players alternately turn the flywheel, which is the operating element 32. At this time, the flywheel, which is the operator 32, is rotated by inertial force. Then, each time the player changes, the swinging body 30 moves back and forth from side to side. When the input gear 31a and the large gear 31b are disengaged from each other at the toothless portion of the input gear 31a, the rocking body 30 on the side where the input gear 31a and the large gear 31b are disengaged may once fall to the machine. Becomes In this way, one competes with which one of the opponent's rocking bodies 30 to defeat first. In this case, when the oscillating body 30 falls down, the oscillating body 30 presses the button 46 to lower the stopper 46a. Then, the locking of the protrusion 42 by the projection 46a is released, the hammer 41 is biased by the spring 43b, and the head 41b strongly hits the drive drum 40 to generate a sound.

Further, while the flywheel, which is the operating element 32, is alternately rotated by the two players together with the signal, the flywheel may be simultaneously rotated. In this case, the abutting rocking bodies 30, 30 exert a force on each other, but when an overload is applied, the shaft 36 moves in the notch portion 24a of the bearing plate 24 and the meshing of the gears is temporarily stopped. And the rocking body 30 on the released side largely falls. Other than that, it is the same as when two players rotate the flywheel alternately.

According to the game device 1 configured as described above, the following effects can be obtained.

Since the player does not directly play the arm-wrestling game with his / her own hand, the win / loss does not depend on the player's strength, and anybody can enjoy the arm-wrestling game.

Although the embodiment made by the present inventor has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the embodiment and various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the invention. .

For example, in the above-described embodiment, the power transmission mechanism 31 is composed only of the gear mechanism, but it is possible to combine the gear mechanism with the winding transmission mechanism including the belt and the pulley, the link mechanism, and the cam mechanism. It may be.

The operating element 32 does not have to be a flywheel, but may be a lever or the like. Alternatively, the power source of the oscillator 30 may be a motor, and the switch may be turned on to transmit the motor power to the oscillator 30 only when the operator 32 is operated.

Further, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the shaft 36 is supported by the base 2 with play so that the meshing of the gears is temporarily released when an overload is applied. However, instead of the overload, A clutch may be provided to temporarily disengage the gears from each other when applied.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the tilt of the oscillating body 30 is mechanically detected by the button 46, but it may be electrically detected to generate a sound. Further, the judgment display may be performed in combination with the sound by another method or by a method other than the sound. Further, the judgment display means is provided for each of the rocking devices, but the judgment display may be made by one judgment display device.

Further, in the above embodiment, the swinging body 30 is used to play the arm-wrestling game, but a leg-wrestling game may be played or two dolls may be played.
