The main part of the pachinko gaming machine according to the present invention is constructed as described above except for a control system which will be described later, and is generally controlled by a control means such as a microcomputer installed in the pachinko gaming machine as follows. Act on

When power is supplied to the pachinko gaming machine by operating a power switch (not shown), “J” is first displayed on the left symbol display portion 22 of the variable display portion 21 of the variable display device 20, and “J” is displayed on the middle symbol display portion 23. “Q” is displayed on the right symbol display section 24, and the normal game is started.

As a display indicating the normal game state (ordinary state), the storage number display LEDs 1 to 4 provided on the variable display device 20 start to turn on alternately from inside to outside and from outside to inside. . In addition, decoration lamp LE
D5 and the decorative lamp LED7 are each set to a blinking display state.

At the time of the normal game, the player aims at the left most nail 27a of the most advantageous top five nails and hits a game ball into the left area of the game area 2 by the hitting ball firing device.

In the case where the game ball hit left as described above flows into the ball inlet 211 through the space between the nails implanted adjacent to the left upper edge of the variable display device 20, ,
The game ball is guided by the ball guiding path 214 and the ball guiding member 315 of the variable display device 20, and the possibility of winning the starting winning opening 5 increases (details will be described later).

When the game ball wins the starting winning opening 5, the winning is determined by the starting winning detection switch SW installed in the internal flow path.
1 and the stored number display lamps LED1 to LED4 of the variable display device 20 are turned on by the detected number based on the detection.

When a game ball that has flowed down without flowing into the ball inlet 211 and wins the specific winning opening 9, the winning is detected by the ordinary electric accessory actuation switch SW6 installed in the internal flow passage. On the basis of the detection, the movable portions 710, 710 of the ordinary electric accessory 70 are converted into a state in which the movable balls 710, 710 are opened in an inverted "C" shape, which makes it easy to win a game ball.

The open state of the movable parts 710, 710 is continued for a predetermined time, and the falling ball is hit by the ordinary electric accessory 7.
0 is set in a state in which it is easy to win the starting winning opening 4 provided at 0.

The game balls that have won the start winning opening 4 are detected by the start winning detection switch SW1 installed on the internal path, and stored in the variable display device in the same manner as in the above-described winning winning start 5. The number display lamps LED1 to LED4 are turned on for the winning number.

Then, after a lapse of a predetermined time, one of the winning number storage display LEDs LED1 to LED4 is turned off, and the variable display game by the variable display device 20 is started.

The player enjoys the auxiliary game (variable display game) while making a left-hand hit until all the lamps of the winning number storage display lamps LED1 to LED4 are turned on.

This variable display game corresponds to the variable display section 21-3.
The symbol display fluctuating game in which the symbol display of the playing cards of the two symbol display sections 22, 23, and 24 is fluctuated so as to be turned over one after another and stopped after the predetermined time has elapsed. It is performed as.

For example, first, the stop symbol before the start of the game is slowly changed up to one rotation so that the left symbol display unit 22 of the variable display unit 21 notifies the player of the start of the game. For example, when the symbol before the start of the game is “1”, the symbol is changed from “1” to “2” while the playing cards are turned.

That is, as shown in FIG. 2C, "1" is displayed in a state where the card display portion 22a of the first layer pattern 25 is completely turned. Next, the back card display section 22b of the second layer pattern 26 is displayed as a back view of the card to be turned over, and thereafter, the front card display section 22 is displayed.
c is displayed as a partially turned surface view, and finally, the card display section 22a displays "2" in a completely turned state.

As described above, a fluctuation cycle is displayed in the order of the card display section, the back card display section, the front card display section, and the card display section, and the symbols are changed from "1" to "2" while the playing cards are turned one after another. “2” to “3”, “3” to “4”, Δ, “A” to “P”, “P” to “1”
It fluctuates cyclically.

The fluctuation speed of the symbol is slow at the start, and at a high speed from the middle (for example, the third turning).

After a predetermined time has elapsed after the start of the change of the left symbol display section 22, the change of the symbol of the middle symbol display section 23 is performed like flipping the symbol of the left symbol display section 22 by turning the playing cards. .

After the start of the change of the middle symbol display section 24, the change of the symbol of the right symbol display section 24 starts after a predetermined time has elapsed. The change of the symbol of the right symbol display section 24 is also performed by turning the playing cards, like the variation of the left symbol display section 22 and the middle symbol display section 23.

At the time of this variable display game, in addition to the decorative lamps LED5 and LED7 which were operated during the normal game,
The change display lamps L3 and L4 each start blinking.

Then, after a predetermined time has elapsed after the start of the change of the left symbol display section 22, or after a stop button (not shown) is pressed, the left symbol display section 22 first stops the change. The mode of the stop of the fluctuation is such that the fluctuation becomes slower from the symbol before the stop (for example, the symbol two before), and the fluctuation is stopped.

For example, when the stop symbol is “0”,
The change before displaying "8", which is the symbol immediately before "0", is a fast cycle, and the change after "8" is displayed is a slow cycle. Then, "0" is displayed on the card display section 22a, and the change of the left symbol display section 22 stops.

After the left symbol display section 22 stops, the change of the symbol of the middle symbol display section 23 is stopped in the same manner as the variation stop mode of the left symbol display section 22.

At the time when the change of the symbol of the middle symbol display section 23 is stopped, if the stop symbol of the middle symbol display section 23 does not match the stop symbol of the left symbol display section 24 (the possibility of occurrence of a special game). If the reach state is not reached), the stop of the symbol change of the right symbol display section 24 is immediately performed after the stop of the middle symbol in the same manner as the stop of the change of the left symbol and the middle symbol.

Then, each lamp (LED5, LED7, L
3, L4) are turned off, and a departure display is performed.

However, if they match (if they are in the reach state), the display of the right symbol display section 24 fluctuates so as to be turned at a slow speed (for example, 420 msec per fluctuation cycle). Stop.

When the reach is reached, the decorative lamp LE
D6, the win indicator lamp 10 also flashes.

At the time when the right symbol is stopped, the variable display game is in a winning mode, for example, when the symbols at the time of the stop are in a mode in which all three symbols match, the game is a "big hit" and a big hit game (special game state) Is performed.

Here, the "big hit" game (special game) is a game mode in which a player is given a lot of chances to obtain a prize ball. In the case of this embodiment, the predetermined value of the door 51 of the variable winning device 50 is determined. One cycle of opening of the time (for example, 29 seconds) (however, a predetermined number of game balls (for example, 1
0) When a prize is won, the opening up to that point is regarded as one cycle), and during each cycle, a game ball flows into the continuous prize port 54 of the large prize port 53 of the variable prize apparatus 50 and the continuous prize detection therein is detected. The detection by the switch SW3 is performed as a continuation condition (cycle update condition), for example, continuously for up to 16 cycles.

At the time of this special game, since the nail on the right side of the game area 2 is specially arranged as described above, it is more advantageous for the player to right-hand.

That is, if the player operates the launching device so that the game ball collides with the buffer member 15 along the inside of the guardrail 3, the fired ball is released from the buffer member 1.
Inelastic collision with 5 flows down the game area 2 almost vertically,
It is guided to the special winning opening 8 while the flow-down direction is regulated by the flow-down direction control nail groups 17, 19A and the like, or further, the flow-down direction control nail groups 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d, 18d.
The floating winning device 50 is controlled while the flowing direction is
In the special winning opening 53 of the game.

By right-handing, many game balls can be efficiently made to win in the special winning opening 53 or the special winning opening 8 in a short time. As a result, the number of hit balls can be calculated from the number of award balls. The number of acquired balls remaining at hand, which is minus, increases.

In the first cycle of the special game, the open state of the door 51 of the variable winning device 50 is maintained for a predetermined time (for example, 2
When a predetermined number (for example, 10) of game balls have been won in the large winning opening 53 of the variable winning device 50 before the predetermined time elapses, or before the predetermined time elapses, the door 51 at that time.
Is closed.

When a game ball wins in the continuous winning opening 54 during the special game of the first cycle, the special game of the second cycle is performed after a predetermined interval.
Up to 16 special games are played.

At the stage when a big hit occurs, each lamp (LED5, LED6, LE

The variable timing variable means 403, having received the variable start signal, sends to the variable display control means 406 a stop symbol before the start of the game and a variable signal for varying the next symbol in a variable cycle of 280 ms.

The variable display control means 406 outputs a display control command signal to the left symbol display section 22 based on the fluctuation signal.

As a result, the left symbol display section 22 of the variable display section 21 fluctuates only in the first two symbols from the start of the fluctuation in a cycle of 280 ms. And the variation timing varying means 40
3 is when the symbol of the third frame from the start of the change is displayed,
First, a fluctuation signal is output to the variable display control means 406 so that the fluctuation timing of the symbol is changed to a fluctuation cycle of 180 ms.

The variable display control means 406 outputs a display control command signal to the left symbol display section 22 based on the fluctuation signal, and displays the first and subsequent symbols in a 180 ms cycle based on the display control command signal. Will fluctuate.

The operation timing control means 402 sends a variable start signal to the variable timing variable means 404 when a predetermined time has elapsed since the left symbol display section 22 started to change.

In the same manner as the control for the left symbol display unit 22, the variable display control means 407 which has received the variable start signal makes only the first two symbols of the middle symbol display unit 23 2
Initiate an 80 ms cycle swing.

Thereafter, the fluctuation timing varying means 404
, The middle symbol display section 23 continues to fluctuate in a cycle of 180 msec.

The operation timing control means 402 sends a variable start signal to the variable timing variable means 405 when a predetermined time has elapsed since the middle symbol display section 23 started to change.

In the same manner as the control for the left symbol display section 22, the variable display control means 408 which has received the variable start signal makes only the first two symbols of the right symbol display section 24 2
Initiate an 80 ms cycle swing.

Thereafter, the fluctuation timing varying means 405
The variable display control means 408 causes the right symbol display unit 24 to continuously change in a cycle of 180 msec based on the change signal of (1).

After a predetermined time has elapsed since the left symbol display section 22 started to fluctuate (about 4000 msec in this embodiment), the operation timing control means 402
Outputs a variable stop signal to the variable timing variable means 403.

The variable timing variable means 403 receiving the signal stops the left symbol display section 22 which fluctuates in a 180 ms cycle. The variable display control section 403 controls the two symbols immediately before the symbol to fluctuate in a 280 ms cycle. A fluctuation stop signal is output to the means 406.

When the variable display control means 406 outputs a display stop command signal to the left symbol display section 22 based on the fluctuation stop signal, the two symbols immediately before the stop symbol become 280.
After changing in a cycle of m seconds, the left symbol means 22 stops the change and displays a stopped symbol.

Next, after a predetermined time has elapsed since the left symbol stopped changing (about 1100 m in this embodiment).
Seconds later), the operation timing control means 402 outputs a variable stop signal to the variable timing variable means 404.

The variable timing variable means 404 receiving the signal stops the middle symbol display section 22 which fluctuates in a 180 msec cycle so that the two symbols immediately preceding the symbol fluctuate in a 280 msec cycle. A fluctuation stop signal is output to the means 407.

When the variable display control means 407 outputs a display stop command signal to the middle symbol display section 23 based on the fluctuation stop signal, the two symbols immediately before the stop symbol become 280.
After changing in the cycle of m seconds, the middle symbol means 23 stops the change and displays the stopped symbol.

At the time when the middle symbol display section 23 stops changing, the variable display control section 406 determines the judgment section 409.
And a stop symbol signal is output from the variable display control means 407 to the determination means 409. At the same time, the operation timing control means 402 outputs a judgment request signal to the judgment means 409.

Based on the determination request signal, the determination means 409 determines whether there is a possibility of a big hit, that is, whether the vehicle is in a reach state.

When the judging means 409 judges that the reach is not reached, the judgment signal is sent to the operation timing control means 402. The operation timing control means 40
2 sends a variable stop signal to the variable timing variable means 405.

When the variable stop timing variable means 405 receiving the signal outputs a variable stop signal to the variable display control means 408, the variable display control means 408 stops displaying on the right symbol display section 24 based on the variable stop signal. Output a signal.

As a result, after a predetermined time from the stop of the middle symbol display unit 23 (after 1120 ms has elapsed in this embodiment), the right symbol display unit 24 which has been changing at a cycle of 180 ms changes to a change at a cycle of 280 ms. Be changed.

The two symbols immediately before the stop symbol are 280 m.
After fluctuating in a second cycle, the right symbol display unit 24 stops and displays a stopped symbol.

On the other hand, when the judgment means 409 is in the "reach state"
, A reach determination signal is sent to the operation timing control means 402. Then, the operation timing control unit 402 sends a variable stop signal of reach to the variable timing variable unit 405.

The variation timing varying means 405 receiving the signal outputs a variation signal to the variable display control means 408 so as to change the variation cycle from a 180 ms cycle to a 280 ms cycle. Next, a fluctuation signal is output to the variable display control means 408 so as to fluctuate in a cycle of 420 msec from the symbol three or four frames before the stop symbol.

As a result, after the symbol stops in the middle, a predetermined time elapses (in this embodiment, from 3080 ms to 1
During 1760 msec), the right symbol display section 24 fluctuates at a 280 msec cycle and thereafter fluctuates at a 420 msec cycle and stops at a stop symbol.

At this stage, the variable display control unit 408 sends a stop symbol signal of the right symbol display unit 24 to the judgment unit 409, and the variable display control unit 406 sends the symbol design signal to the left symbol display unit 2
2 is sent to the judgment means 409, and the variable display control means 407 sends the stop symbol signal of the middle symbol display section 23 to the judgment means 409. At the same time, the operation timing control means 402 outputs a big hit determination request signal to the determination means 409.

Then, based on the big hit determination request signal, the determination means 409 determines whether each of the display sections 22 and 2 of the variable display section 21
Whether each stop symbol of 3,24 matches,
That is, it is determined whether or not a hit has occurred.

If the result of the above determination is that there is a big hit, the judging means 409 outputs the big hit signal to the variable winning device control means 4.
10 and also outputs a jackpot signal to the operation timing control means 402.

As a result, the operation timing control means 4
02 sends various signals to the variable winning device control means 410,

The operation timing control means 402 outputs an operation control signal to the variable winning device control means 410 when an interval before the first cycle of the special game has elapsed. As a result, the variable winning device control means 410 outputs an attacker signal to the solenoid SOLA based on the operation control signal, and based on the signal, the door 51 rotates and the big winning opening 53 is opened.

When the special winning opening 53 is opened and the special game of the first cycle is started, the player makes a right hit so that the game ball collides with the buffer member 15. And the nail groups 17, 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d,
When the game ball flowing down along each of the nail groups 18e wins one of the winning ports 55 and 56 in the special winning port 53,
The winning is detected by the winning number detecting switches SW5 and SW5.

The winning number detecting switches SW5, S
A winning detection signal is sent from W5 to the winning number counting means 411.

When the game ball wins the continuous winning opening 54, the winning is detected by the continuous winning detection switch SW3. Then, a continuous winning detection signal is sent from the continuous winning detection switch SW3 to the continuous control means 412.
The continuous winning detection switch SW3 also has a role as a winning number detecting switch, and the continuous winning detection signal is also sent to the winning number counting means 411.

The continuation control means 412 sends a display signal to the continuation display lamp L1 based on the continuation winning detection signal, and causes the continuation display lamp L1 to blink. At the same time, the continuation control means 412 sends a continuation control signal to the variable prize device control means 410, and the variable prize device control means 410 controls the continuous special game based on the continuation control signal.

More specifically, the variable winning device control means 41
0 means that the winning number from the winning number counting means 411 is 10
In order to close the special winning opening 53 when a count signal indicating the number of pieces is input or when a predetermined time has elapsed, whichever is earlier, the solenoid S
A closing signal is output to the OLA.

Thus, the special game of the first cycle is completed.

After an interval of a predetermined time is provided until the special winning opening 53 is opened again on the premise that the continuous control signal is input to the variable winning device control means 410, the opening signal of the next cycle is changed to the solenoid SOLA. Is output to

As described above, in the special game, the above-described series of controls is repeatedly performed within a predetermined cycle (for example, 16 cycles) on condition that the game ball wins the continuous winning opening 54 in the variable winning device. .

Then, at the time of the last cycle, a continuation end signal indicating the last cycle is sent from the continuation control means 412 to the variable winning device control means 410.

On the basis of the continuation end signal, the variable winning device control means 410 sends a solenoid signal to the solenoid SOLA, and based on the solenoid signal, the solenoid S

Phase 3 (Step S106, Step S10)
7), six phases of a phase 4 (steps S109 to S110) for processing of output editing of lamps, solenoids, LEDs, etc., a processing of sound editing and output, and a phase 5 (step S111) for updating random numbers. It is divided into

When the main processing is started, first, in step S100, each switch (SW1 to SW6, MS
After performing the input processing of the state of W), step S101 is performed.
Move to

In step S101, it is determined whether the process is started by turning on the power or the process is continued. If it is determined that the process is continued, the process proceeds to step S102 to perform a memory test (inspection of the specific RAM 630 area). RA
It is determined whether or not M630 is normal.

As a result, if it is determined that the activation is due to power-on, or if the RAM 630 is not normal, the RAM 630 area is initialized in step S103, and the process proceeds to step S111 to update the random number. .

However, the operation is not started by turning on the power, and
If it is determined that the memory (RAM 630) is normal, output processing is performed in step S104, and the next step S104

Move to 6.

In step S106, fraud is detected, and if a fraud condition occurs, fraud processing is performed. In step S107, input acceptance processing for each switch is performed. In step S108, game processing is performed.
Move to

In steps S109 to S110, output editing of a lamp and the like, sound effect editing and output thereof are performed, and then the process proceeds to the next step S111 to update the random numbers and enter the HALT state. Each time a reset signal from the frequency divider 644 is input to the reset terminal RST of the microcomputer 610, the process returns to step S100 to start the main processing.

FIG. 24 shows a control processing procedure of the input processing (phase 0) of the main processing of FIG.

In this phase 0, two processes, ie, a process of setting a stack pointer, restoring a value of a refresh register, and a process of reading SW are performed.

[0279] Here, the reading processing of the SW means each SW (S
W1 to SW6, MSW), decompose the state, remove chattering, and prepare a format that can be used in each process. SW information required in each process includes SW on (rising edge) and SW current state (SW on or off).
Level state).

When the input processing of the phase 0 is started, first, in steps S120 to S121, the RAM 63
Each process of setting a stack pointer of 0 and restoring the value of the refresh register is performed.

Thereafter, in steps S122 to S127, the physical state of whether the switch is turned on is read, the active logic is converted from negative logic input to positive logic, chattering is removed, the current logic state is calculated, and the current state is calculated. (RAM6
30) Store, extract the rising edge of the SW and store the active state of the SW in the active state memory (RAM 63
After performing the process of storing in (0), the process proceeds to the initialization process of the next phase 1.

FIG. 25 shows a control processing procedure of the initialization processing (phase 1) of the main processing of FIG.

In the initialization processing of the phase 1, the power monitor is inspected to determine whether the power is turned on or the processing is continued. The result of the determination is that the power is turned on or the RAM 630
This is processing for initializing the RAM 630 area when the inspection area is abnormal.

When the processing of this phase 1 is started, it is first determined in step S140 whether or not the power is turned on. If the power is not turned on, the process proceeds to step S141, and if the power is turned on. For example, the process proceeds to step S142.

If it is determined that the power is not being turned on and the process proceeds to step S141, the process proceeds to step S141.
It is determined whether or not the AM630 inspection area is normal. If it is normal, the process proceeds to the next phase 2 output process, and if not, the process proceeds to step S142.

When the process proceeds to step S142, the RAM 630 area 152
After clearing the byte, the process proceeds to step S143 to digitally set an initial display value (initial display symbol), and in the next step S144, sets the inspection data in the inspection area of the RAM 630 to perform the phase 5 random number updating process. Figure 5 to do
Then, control goes to a step S616 in FIG.

FIGS. 26 to 28 show control processing procedures such as the output processing (phase 2) of the main processing of FIG.

In this output process (Phase 2), the process of outputting the output data edited and output in Phase 4 to each port, and when a prize is won in the special winning opening 53, 15 games per game ball When a ball is won other than the above, two processes of two-system prize ball processing in which five game balls are awarded for one game ball are performed.

When the processing of the phase 2 is started, first, in step S150, the output data of the lamp and the LED is output, and the process proceeds to step S152.
In 2, the scan pointer of the LCD (liquid crystal display panel 340) is updated, and the process proceeds to step S154.

At step S154, it is determined whether or not the scan pointer has exceeded the upper limit. If it is determined that the scan pointer has exceeded the upper limit, the process proceeds to step S156, where the scan pointer is cleared and the process proceeds to step S158. If it is determined that there is not, the process proceeds directly to step S158.

In steps S158 to S164, an LCD output area is sequentially calculated from the scan pointer, data is taken out from the corresponding address, the number of outputs is set, and
Data such as an LCD is output to the PU, and the process proceeds to step S166.

In step S166, it is determined whether or not all data has been output to the MPU. If it is determined that all data has not been output, the process returns to step S164. If it is determined that all data has been output, step S164 is performed. S168
Proceed to.

In step S168, it is determined whether the scan counter is 9 or not. If the determination is Yes, the flow advances to step S170 to output a latch signal. Then, the flow advances to step S172 for performing the two-system award ball processing shown in FIG. Is N
If it is determined to be "o", the process directly proceeds to step S172, and two-system prize ball processing is performed.

In the two-system prize ball processing shown in FIG. 27, processing of monitoring the winning of the winning number detection switches (SW3 to SW5, hereinafter referred to as count SW) and storing the winning number up to 255 (steps S172 to S180); The process branches according to the two control numbers, and is divided into processes (steps S182 to S230) performed according to each state.

When the two-system prize ball process starts, step S1 is executed.
At 72, it is determined whether or not there is an input to the winning number detection switches (SW3 to SW5). If it is determined that there is no winning, the process directly proceeds to step S180. If it is determined that there is a winning, the process proceeds to step S174. After the storage number of the number detection switches (SW3 to SW5) is updated (+1 count up), the process proceeds to step S176.

In step S176, it is determined whether or not the number of stored prize number detection switches (SW3 to SW5) is less than "256".
If it is determined that it is less than 6 ", the process directly proceeds to step S180. If it is determined that it is not less than" 256 ", the winning number detection switch (S
After keeping the storage number of W3 to 5) to less than "256", the process proceeds to step S180.

In step S180, it is determined whether or not all the winning number detection switches (SW3 to SW5) have been inspected.
When it is determined that the inspection has not been performed, the process returns to step S172, and the processing of steps S172 to S178 is performed. When it is determined that the inspection has been performed, the process proceeds to step S182.

Then, in steps S182 to S186, it is determined which of the two system control numbers is "0", "1", "2", or "3".

As a result, when it is determined that the winning number is “0”, the winning number detecting switch (S
W3 to 5) to proceed to step S188 in FIG. 28 to check the storage and control the solenoid SOLC,
If it is determined to be "1", the flow shifts to step S200 in FIG. 28 to remove chattering at the rising edge of the MSW (FIG. 16) of the crown cam 861 of control number "1".

When it is determined that the number is "2", step S212 in FIG. 28 is executed in order to control the updating of the stored number of the winning number detection switches (SW3 to SW5) of the control number "2".
And when it is determined to be "3", the control number "3"
Then, the flow shifts to the step S220 in FIG. 28 in order to control the falling chattering of MSW.

First, in the process of control number "0", step S
At 188, the ON information of the solenoid SOLC is set, and then the flow shifts to step S190.

At step S190, it is determined whether or not the MSW is at the "H" level (high level) (during the award ball discharging operation), and if it is at the "H" level (high level) (prize). Step S192 if the ball is being ejected
However, if it is not at the “H” level (high level) (unless the award ball discharging operation is being performed), the process directly proceeds to step S230.

In step S192, it is determined whether or not the winning number detection switches (SW3 to SW5) are stored. If "YES" is determined, the process directly proceeds to step S196, but if "NO" is determined. Step S194
Sets the OFF information of the solenoid SOLC.

Thus, when the flow shifts to step S196, the chattering elimination time (30
0 ms), and sets the dual-system control number to “1” in the next step S198, and then proceeds to step S230.

When the process proceeds to step S230, the control information is stored in the control area in the register of the RAM 630, and then the process proceeds to phase 3.

It is determined that the control number is "1" and step S2
When the process proceeds to 00, the dual system control number is set to “0” in step S200, and then the process proceeds to step S202.

At step S202, it is determined whether or not the MSW is at the "H" level (high level) (during the award ball discharging operation). As a result, when it is determined that the “H” level (high level) has not been reached (the prize ball discharging operation is not being performed), the process directly proceeds to step S230.

However, if it is determined that the signal is at the "H" level (high level) (prize ball discharging operation is being performed), the two-system control number is set to "1" in step S204, and the next step S206 Then, the chattering removal timer is updated, and the routine goes to Step S208.

In step S208, it is determined whether or not the chattering elimination time has expired. When it is determined that the chattering elimination time has expired, the dual system control number is set to "2" in step S210, and the flow shifts to step S230, where the flow ends. If it is determined that it has not been performed, the process directly proceeds to step S230.

When the process proceeds to step S230, the control information in the register of the RAM 630 is stored in the control area in step S230, and then the process proceeds to phase 3.

If it is determined that the control number is "2", then step S2 is executed.
At step S12, it is determined whether or not the solenoid SOLC is turned on (it is in a discharge state of 15 pieces). If it is determined that the solenoid is turned on, the winning number detection switch (step S214) is determined in step S214. SW3-5)
Is decremented by one (-1), and then step S
The process proceeds to step S216, but if it is determined that the switch is not turned on (it is in the state of five discharges), the process directly proceeds to step S216.

Then, in step S216, the chattering elimination time is set to 150 ms, and in step S218, the two-system control number is set to "3", and the flow shifts to step S230.

When the process proceeds to step S230, the control information in the register of the RAM 630 is stored in the control area in step S230, and then the process proceeds to phase 3.

It is determined that the control number is "3", and step S2 is executed.
When the process proceeds to step S220, the MSW
It is determined whether or not (FIG. 16) is at the “H” level (high level) (during a prize ball discharging operation). As a result, when it is determined that the level is at the “H” level (high level) (prize ball discharging operation is being performed), the process proceeds to step S216 to set a chattering removal time of 150 ms, and the processes of steps S218 and S230 are performed. Are performed in order, and then the process proceeds to the phase 3 processing.

However, when it is determined that the “H” level (high level) has not been reached (the award ball discharging operation is not being performed),
In steps S222 and S224, a process of setting the ON information of the solenoid SOLC and a process of updating the chattering elimination timer are sequentially performed, and then the process proceeds to step S226.

In step S226, it is determined whether or not the chattering elimination time has ended. If it is determined that the chattering elimination time has not ended, the flow directly proceeds to step S230. If it is determined that the chattering elimination time has ended, the two-system control number is set to "0". Then, the process proceeds to step S230.

When the process proceeds to step S230, the control information in the register of the RAM 630 is stored in the control area in step S230, and the process proceeds to phase 3.

FIGS. 29 to 32 show the processing performed in phase 3 of the main processing shown in FIG. 23. The fraud monitoring processing and the fraudulent processing are performed in steps S250 to S280, and in steps S282 to S292. Input monitoring of the start winning detection switches SW1 and SW2 is performed. Input monitoring of the counter SW is performed in steps S294 to S318. Input monitoring of the continuous winning detection switch SW3 is performed in steps S320 to S338.
40 to S348 show control processing procedures of the game processing.

In the fraud monitoring process, the counter SW and the continuous winning detection switch are turned on when any one of the counter SWs is continuously turned on / short for about 3 seconds or more, during the opening of the special winning opening of the special game, and during a certain time thereafter. If none of the above is turned on, it is regarded as illegal and the process proceeds to illegal processing.

When the processing of this phase 3 is started, it is first determined in step S250 whether or not the counter SW has been input according to the fraud monitoring processing routine shown in FIG. 29. After clearing the monitoring request, the process proceeds to step S254,
On the other hand, if there is no input, the process proceeds directly to step S254. Then, in Step S254, the fraud flag is extracted, and the process proceeds to Step S255. In Step S256, the fraud monitoring information is extracted, and then the process proceeds to Step S256.

In step S256, it is determined whether or not the status of the corresponding switch SW for which fraud should be detected is at the "L" level (low level), and not at the "L" level (low level). Sometimes step S
The process proceeds to 258, where monitoring of ON / short illegal operation of SW3 to SW5 is performed. That is, in step S258, it is determined whether the corresponding SW is unauthorized or not.
The process proceeds to 266, where the fraud flag is set. If not fraudulent, the monitoring timer is updated in step S260, and the flow proceeds to step S264, where it is determined whether or not the corresponding time (about 3 seconds) has elapsed. If so, an invalid flag is set in step S266, and if not, step S266
Proceeding to 268, the fraud flag is reset.

On the other hand, if it is determined in step S256 that the status of the corresponding switch SW for which fraud should be detected is at the "L" level (low level), the process proceeds to step S26.
The process proceeds to step 2 to monitor for no-count irregularities. That is, the monitoring timer is initialized in step S262, and in step S2
Proceeding to S64, it is determined whether or not the corresponding time (about 29 seconds + 1.9 seconds) has elapsed.
At 66, the fraud flag is set, and if it has not elapsed, the process proceeds to step S268, and the fraud flag is reset.

Thereafter, the flow shifts to step S270, where it is determined whether or not all illegal monitoring has been completed.
Proceed to 272, but if not finished, step S256
Then, the loop of steps S256 to S270 is repeated, and when it is determined that the process has been completed, the process proceeds to step S272 to store an invalid flag, and thereafter, the process proceeds to step S274.
Move to

At step S274, it is determined whether there is any fraud. As a result, when it is determined that there is no fraud, the flow shifts to step S282 in FIG.

However, if it is determined that there is fraud, the flow shifts to step S276 to perform fraudulent processing.

Then, in steps S276 to S280, processing for updating the illegal timer is performed.
After performing the process of blinking in the s cycle and the process of turning off the outputs other than the solenoids SOLC and L2 in order, the flow shifts to S542 in FIG. 54 to perform sound output control.

When the flow shifts to step S282 in FIG. 30,
The input monitoring process of the start winning detection switch is started, and it is determined whether the start winning detection switches SW1 and SW2 are turned on. If it is on, the process proceeds to step S284, and it is determined whether or not the stored number is equal to or more than the upper limit value (in this embodiment, a maximum of four). If not, the stored number is updated in steps S286 to S290. , RANDOM
The processing of adding the value of the (big hit probability generation random number) and the refresh register, storing the result, and setting the output request of the start opening winning sound is performed, and the process proceeds to step S292.

However, in step S282, it is determined that the start opening winning detection switch is not turned on, or in step S2
If it is determined in step 84 that the stored number is equal to or larger than the upper limit, the process directly proceeds to step S292.

In step S292, it is determined whether or not the all-start winning detection switch has been checked. If it is determined that the switch has not been checked, the process returns to step S282, and the processing in steps S282 to S292 is performed again.

On the other hand, if it is determined that the check has been made, it is determined in step S294 whether or not a big hit operation is being performed. If not, the process directly proceeds to step S340 in FIG. 32, and the variable display game is started. .

If it is determined in step S294 that the big hit operation is being performed, the flow shifts to step S296.

In step S296, it is determined whether or not there is an input to the count SW. If there is no input, the process directly proceeds to step S320 in FIG. 31 to monitor the input of the continuous winning detection switch SW3. The process moves to S298.

In step S298, a count sound output request is set, and in step S300, S of the count SWs is set.
It is determined whether or not there is an input to W3. If an input has been made, the process proceeds to step S302, the number of inputs of the count SW is updated, and the process proceeds to step S304. If no input has been made, the process directly proceeds to step S304.

In step S304, of the count SWs,
It is determined whether or not the input has been made to the SW4. If the input has been made, the process proceeds to step S306. The number of inputs of the count SW is updated, and the process proceeds to step S308. If not, the process proceeds to step S308.

At step S308, of the count SWs,
It is determined whether or not there is an input to SW5, and if so, the process proceeds to step S310, the number of inputs of the count SW is updated, and the process proceeds to step S312. If not, the process directly proceeds to step S312.

In step S312, the above SW3, SW4, SW5
It is determined whether or not the input of the winning number detection switch SW is less than 10 counts. If the input is less than 10 counts, the process directly proceeds to step S320 shown in FIG. 31. If not, the process proceeds to step S314. 10 count information is set, and the process proceeds to step S316.

In step S316, it is determined whether or not the input is during the valid time of SW3 to SW5. If it is not during the valid time, the process proceeds to step S318 to clear the sequence timer. It proceeds to step S320 shown.

In steps S320 to S338, the input of the continuous winning detection switch SW3 is monitored. First, in step S320, it is determined whether or not there is an input of the continuous winning detection switch SW3.
The process proceeds to 40, where a new variable display game is started. If there is an input, the process proceeds to step S322.

In step S322, it is determined whether or not the number of times of continuing the special game is the 16th. If it is the 16th, the process directly proceeds to step S340. If not, the process proceeds to step S324 and the continuous winning detection switch SW3.
It is determined whether or not a jackpot operation is being performed before continuation based on winning of the prize.

If it is determined in step S324 that the big hit operation is being performed, steps S334 to S3 are performed.
At 38, the control type switching timer for switching the control type after the continuation of the big hit operation is set, the continuous prize detection switch output request for the incoming ball sound is set, and the control type "11" (big hit operation for 2 seconds after the continuation) is set. The process proceeds to step S332 to update the step number indicating the execution stage of the game process.

On the other hand, when it is determined in step S324 that the big hit operation is not being performed, it is determined in step S326 whether or not the valid time before continuation (1.9 seconds after closing the special winning opening) is the valid time. If it is determined to be step S3
In steps 28 to S330, an interval sound output request and a control type of "9" (fan fare operation) are set, and the flow proceeds to step S332. If it is determined that the time is not the valid time, the flow proceeds to step S34 in FIG.
Move to 0.

When the flow shifts to step S340, the initial information of the unauthorized sound is set in step S340, and the flow shifts to step S342 to determine whether or not the sequence time has ended. If not, the flow advances to step S344. The sequence timer is updated and the process proceeds to step S400 of the process of phase 4 in FIG. 49, but if it is determined that the process has been completed, the process proceeds to step S346.

In step S346, an inappropriate step number is initialized, and the flow advances to step S348.

When the flow shifts to step S348, step S348 of the game process corresponding to the step number in step S348 (normal operation process) and step S348
01 (left symbol rotation start process), step S02 (middle symbol rotation start process), step S03 (right symbol rotation start process), step S04 (automatic stop time end monitoring process), step S05 (left symbol stop start process) ), Step S06 (medium symbol stop start processing), step S07
(Right symbol stop start processing), Step S08 (Operation end monitoring processing during reach), Step S09 (Stop result determination processing), Step S010 (Disengagement operation end monitoring processing), Step S011 (Big hit fan fare) Step S012 (end monitoring of fanfare and inverter operation), step S013 (end monitoring of jackpot operation before continuation), step S014
(End monitoring process of jackpot operation after continuation), step S0
15 (processing for monitoring the end of valid time before continuation), step S
016 (processing for monitoring the end of the effective time after continuation), the flow proceeds to step S017 (processing for monitoring the end of the big hit operation) to perform the game processing, and then proceeds to step S400 of the processing of phase 4 in FIG.

FIG. 33 shows the step S0 of the game processing.
The outline of the control processing procedure of the flow from 0 to S017 will be described.

As the flow of the game processing, first, normal operation processing (step S00) is performed until there is a prize in the start winning prize ports 4, 5, and 6.

In the normal operation processing in step S00, the presence or absence of storage is determined. If there is storage, information of the digital rotation start of the variable display unit 21 is set. If there is no storage, start information of normal operation is set. . Such processing is continuously performed until the input to the start winning detection switches SW1 and SW2 is detected. When the input is received, the process proceeds to the next left symbol rotation start processing (step S01).

The left symbol rotation start process of step S01 is a process for starting the rotation of the left symbol, and is continuously performed until the rotation of the left symbol is started. Medium symbol rotation start processing (step S02)
Move to

The middle symbol rotation start process in step S02 is a process for starting the rotation of the middle symbol. The process is continuously performed until the rotation of the middle symbol is started. Right symbol rotation start processing (step S03)
Move to

The right symbol rotation start process in step S03 is a process for starting the rotation of the right symbol. The process is continuously performed until the right symbol starts to be rotated. The process proceeds to the automatic stop time end monitoring process (step S04).

The automatic stop time end monitoring process in step S04 is for setting a random time until the stop symbol is determined after the automatic stop time of each of the display units 22, 23, 24 of the variable display unit 21 ends.

In this embodiment, for example, the left symbol display unit 2
The automatic stop time of 2 is 4000 ms after the start of fluctuation,
The random time is determined between 2 ms and 64 ms using the value of the R register when the automatic stop time has elapsed.
Then, when the random time is over, the process proceeds to the stop start processing of the next left symbol (step S05).

The stop start processing of the left symbol in step S05 is for determining the combination of the stop symbols on the variable display section 21 and setting the stop information of the left symbol, and is continuously performed until the left symbol stops. Then, at the time of stopping, the process proceeds to the next middle symbol stop start process (step S06).

The middle symbol stop start process in step S06 is for setting the middle symbol stop information, and is continuously performed until the middle symbol stops. When the middle symbol stops, the next right symbol stop start process is performed. The process proceeds to (Step S07).

In the stop start processing of the right symbol in step S07, the reach eye is determined and stop information of the right symbol is set. The process is continuously performed until the reach expression is started, and when the reach is determined and the reach expression is started, the end monitoring process at the next reach (step S0)
The process proceeds to 8), and is continued until the right symbol stops, except in the case of the reach, and when the right symbol stops, the process shifts to the stop result determination processing of step 09.

The end monitoring process at the time of the reach in step S08 is performed in the case of the reach, in which the stop time of the right symbol is set, and is continuously performed until the right symbol stops. Is stopped, the process proceeds to the next stop result determination process (step S09).

The stop result judging process in this step S09 is a process of judging a big hit / miss and performing a process according to the judgment result. If the stop result is out of the range, the process proceeds to the out-of-operation end monitoring process (step S010). Then, the end of the detaching operation (turn off of all lamps, etc.) is monitored,
If there is no storage at the end of the detaching operation, the process returns to the first normal operation process (step S00) and returns to step S
The processing below 00 is performed. If there is a storage at the end of the detaching operation, the process returns to the left symbol rotation start process (step S01), and the processes from step S01 are performed again.

However, if the result of determination in the stop result determination process in step S09 is a big hit, the flow proceeds to a fanfare shift process for a big hit (step S011).

The fanfare shift processing of this step S011 is performed in accordance with the big hit display time (1
After the end of the second) is monitored, the fanfare operation is set. The process is continuously performed until the fanfare transfer process is completed. When the fanfare transfer process is completed, the process proceeds to the next fanfare / interval operation end monitoring process (step S012).

[0360] The fanfare / interval operation end monitoring processing in step S012 monitors the end of the big hit fanfare operation, and sets the big hit operation after the fanfare operation ends. The processing is continuously performed until the fanfare processing is performed. After the fanfare processing, the termination monitoring processing of the jackpot operation before the continuation is performed (step S
013).

The process of monitoring the end of the big hit operation before the continuation of step S013 is to monitor the open condition end condition of the door 51 of the variable winning device 50 before winning the continuous winning opening 54. Here, the open condition end condition is a big hit operation time (29 seconds)
Has elapsed or the count number of the count SW has reached 10.

If the game ball wins the continuous winning opening before the end condition is satisfied, the flow shifts to the big hit operation end monitoring process after the continuation of step S014.

Then, in step S014, the above two conditions are monitored.

When the big hit time ends in step S013 or when 10 counts are completed, step S01 is executed.

Output.

The random number change control means 416 picks up a random number from the random number A in the random number means 414 based on the variable display game signal every time the prize storage signal is input, and responds to the prize storage signal. Attach and remember.

In the variable display game, when the determining means 409 determines that the stop symbol of the variable display section 21 which is the result of the game is a big hit, a big hit signal is sent to the random number change detecting means 415.

The random number change detecting means 415 sends a special game signal to the random number change control means 416. Each time the winning storage signal is inputted, the random number change control means 416 outputs the random number means 414 based on the special game signal.
The random number is picked up from the random number B in the above and stored in association with the winning storage signal.

The winning probability of the random number B is higher than the winning probability of the random number A.

[0531] The specific prize storage means 413 also outputs a prize storage signal to the ordinary symbol display operation timing control means 418, and the ordinary symbol display operation timing control means 418 to which the prize storage signal is input is output from the ordinary symbol display operation timing control means 418. A game start signal is sent to the display control means 419. Then, the normal symbol display control means 419 controls the normal symbol display unit 100a.
, And the display of the ordinary symbol display unit 100a starts to change based on the variable start signal.

[0532] When a predetermined time has elapsed since the symbol of the ordinary symbol display section 100a started to change, the ordinary symbol display operation timing control means 418 outputs a timing signal to the random number changing means 416. Then, based on the timing signal, the random number changing means 416 extracts a stored random number corresponding to the winning storage signal, and determines a stop symbol based on the random number.

When the random number changing means 416 outputs a stop symbol signal to the symbol comparing means 420, the symbol comparing means 420 receives the stop symbol signal and the normal symbol display section 1
Normal symbol display control means 4 for controlling the fluctuation of 00a
Based on the fluctuation symbol signal from 19, the stop symbol and the fluctuation symbol are compared.

Based on the result of the comparison, the symbol comparing means 420 determines the number of feed frames up to the stop symbol, and sends the number-of-feed-frames signal to the normal symbol display operation timing control means 41.
8 is output. The ordinary symbol display operation timing control means 418 outputs a control signal to the ordinary symbol display control means 419 in order to stop the symbol fluctuating on the basis of the number-of-sending-frames signal with a stop symbol.

[0535] Then, based on the stop signal, the ordinary symbol display control means 419 outputs a variable stop signal to the ordinary symbol display section 100a so as to stop the fluctuating symbol at the stop symbol. The normal symbol variable display section 100a stops at the stop symbol.

The ordinary symbol display control means 419 also sends the control signal to the ordinary symbol determination means 417.

[0537] Normal symbol determination means 4 based on the control signal
17 is the normal symbol display operation timing control means 418
When the determination request signal is input from the CPU, it is determined whether or not the stop symbol is a hit.

If the result of this determination is that there is a hit, the ordinary symbol determining means 417 sends a hit signal to the ordinary electric accessory control means 413, and based on the hit signal, the ordinary electric accessory control means 413 sends the solenoid signal to the solenoid. Send solenoid signal to SOLB. At the same time, the ordinary symbol determining means 4
17 is the normal symbol display operation timing control means 418
To send a determination end signal.

[0539] The solenoid SOLB operates to convert the movable portion 710 of the ordinary electric accessory 70 to an open state for a predetermined time based on the solenoid signal.

When the movable part 710 is changed to the closed state, the ordinary electric accessory control means 413 sends the game end signal to the ordinary symbol display operation timing control means 41.
Send to 8. The normal symbol display operation timing control means 41
8 controls the ordinary symbol display device 100 to start the next ordinary symbol variable display game based on the game end signal.

In such a configuration, if a game ball wins at a specific winning opening during a special game of the variable display game, a hit occurs with a high probability.

As a result, a plus prize ball can be expected during the special game.
