Description

  The present invention relates to a prize acquisition device for dropping a prize held in a prize storage unit based on a user's operation and discharging the prize from the inside to the outside.

  In recent years, amusement facilities such as game centers have many premium acquisition devices that acquire premiums as a result of user operations, such as crane-type premium acquisition devices. For example, in a crane-type prize acquisition device, a crane is moved to a desired position in a prize storage section that stores a prize to be acquired by a user, and a prize that can be gripped by the crane is discharged from the prize storage section. The person can win a free gift.

  In recent years, various prize acquisition measures have been installed in addition to crane-type prize acquisition apparatuses. For example, there is a prize acquisition device that uses a penetrating bar and acquires a stopped prize after being guided by a prize guide rail (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

  However, in the conventional crane-type prize acquisition apparatus and the apparatus described in Patent Document 1 described above, the user cannot acquire a prize unless the operation is successful. Therefore, there is a problem that it is difficult to obtain a sense of achievement because the user cannot obtain a prize unless the operation is successful.

  On the other hand, in the game machine, in addition to the first prize that the user tries to acquire using the arm, the second prize is stored in another storage unit, and even if acquisition using the arm fails, There is also a game machine that maintains the user's motivation by discharging the second prize stored in another storage unit when a certain condition is satisfied (for example, see Patent Document 2). In addition, there is a gaming machine that allows a user of a gaming machine to be entertained by allowing a crane game to be started separately from the original game when a certain condition is satisfied in the gaming machine (see, for example, Patent Document 3).

  However, in the method described in Patent Document 2, the second prize is discharged by lottery, and it is difficult to sufficiently obtain the user's feeling of achievement. Further, even with the method described in Patent Document 3, if a crane game fails, a prize cannot be obtained, and it is difficult to obtain a user's sense of achievement sufficiently.

<First Embodiment>
Hereinafter, the prize acquisition device according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described. As shown in FIG. 1, a prize acquisition device 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention allows a prize placed inside a prize storage unit 10 to be sent via prize discharge ports 14a and 14b based on a user's operation. This is a device for discharging from the inside of the prize acquisition device 1 to the outside.

  The prize acquisition device 1 is provided in the prize storage section 10 which is at least partially transparent and visible inside, and is provided in the prize storage section 10 and can be driven in the horizontal direction (xy direction) and the vertical direction (z direction). Means 12 a, 12 b, drive mechanism 13 for moving the acquisition means 12 a, 12 b to a desired position, the prize discharge mechanism 11 disposed below the acquisition means 12 a, 12 b in the prize storage section 10, and the prize storage section 10 Prize discharge ports 14a and 14b for discharging the prizes, and an operation unit 15 having operation buttons and the like used by the user for driving the acquisition means 12a and 12b. Here, as shown in FIG. 1, the acquisition means 12 a and 12 b each have a through-rod 121.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the prize discharging mechanism 11 includes a panel 111 having a through hole 111 a and a first prize A that is disposed below the panel 111 and holds the first prize A until the through bar 121 passes through the through hole 111 a. 1 holding means 112, a second holding means 113 for holding a second prize different from the first prize A held by the first holding means 112, one end connected to the panel 111 and the other end being the first 2 is extended to the notch 113d formed in the holding means 113, and the convex part 114a formed at the other end is pushed out above the second holding means 113, whereby the second holding means 113 holds A drop means 114 for dropping the second prize and a first support means 115 for supporting the drop means 114 so as to be tilted are provided.

  In the example shown in FIG. 2, the prize discharging mechanism 11 includes a support plate 116, and the panel 111, the second holding means 113, and the first support means 115 are installed on the support plate 116. In the example shown in FIG. 2, the support plate 116 includes a panel support portion 116 a that supports the panel 111 and a drop means support portion 116 c that supports the drop means 114. This support plate 116 is in a state perpendicular to the through-rod 121.

  The panel support part 116 a is formed in substantially the same shape as the panel 111. Moreover, the panel support part 116a has a wall part 117a perpendicular to the panel support part 116a on a side far from the second holding means 113 and the first support means 115. The panel 111 is supported on the wall portion 117a by using the second support means 117b. Here, the 2nd support means 117b is not a thing which fixes the panel 111 to the wall part 117a, but is a hinge etc. which support the angle formed by the panel 111 and the wall part 117a so that a change is possible. The panel 111 is supported by using the third support means 117c on the side close to the second holding means 113 and the first support means 115 facing the side having the wall portion 117a of the panel support portion 116a. Here, the third support means 117c does not fix and support the panel 111 but is a spring or the like that can change the distance between the panel 111 and the panel support portion 116a.

  Therefore, the panel 111 is not pressed and is parallel to the support plate 116 on the panel support portion 11b using the second support means 117b and the third support means 117c, that is, perpendicular to the through bar 121. It is supported in the state. On the other hand, since the angle is variable by the second support means 117b and the height is also variable by the third support means 117c, the panel 111 is inclined by pressing.

  The first holding means 112 that holds the first prize A is disposed below the panel support portion 116a. Therefore, the through hole 116b is also formed in the panel support 116a so that the first holding means 112 can be pressed by the through rod 121 passing through the through hole 111a of the panel 111 and the first holding means 112 can be dropped. It is necessary to provide. Further, the position of the through-hole 116b formed in the panel support part 116a is formed in the panel 111 so that the through-hole 116b of the panel support part 116a cannot be penetrated through the through-hole 111b of the panel 111. It is necessary to match the position of the through hole 111b. Note that the sizes may not be the same, and the size of the through hole 116b of the panel support 116a may be larger than the size of the through hole 111a of the panel 111.

  The first holding means 112 includes a mounting plate 112a for mounting the first prize A, a contact plate 112b that contacts the through-hole 121 through the through-hole 111a of the panel 111 and the through-hole 116b of the panel support 116a. A stopper 112c is provided that keeps the mounting plate 112a parallel to the panel 111 until the rod 121 and the contact plate 112b come into contact with each other. The first holding means 112 includes a plurality of strings 112d connected to the support plate 116, and supports the mounting plate 112a and the stopper 112c using the plurality of strings 112d.

  For example, the contact plate 112b is connected to a movable portion 112f that is fixed to the rotating shaft 112e. The rotating shaft 112e is rotatably held in the prize storage unit 10 when the contact plate 112b is pressed. Therefore, when the through-rod 121 passes through the through-hole 111a and the contact plate 112b is pressed against the through-rod 121, the contact plate 112b parallel to the mounting plate 112a is not parallel to the mounting plate 112a, and the mounting plate 112a Is stopped parallel to the panel 111 and the first prize A falls.

  The second holding means 113 includes a placement surface 113a for placing the second prize B, a guide 113b and a stopper 113c for holding the second prize placed on the placement surface 113a, and a second prize B. The convex part 114a used when dropping is has the notch part 113d which goes up and down.

  The mounting surface 113a is inclined so that the side having the cut portion 113d is lower than the side facing the cut surface 113d. Therefore, the prize held by the second holding means 113 slides down on the placement surface 113a until it hits the stopper 113c along the guide 113b. The stopper 113c is set to a height that can hold the second prize B.

  The dropping means 114 has one end connected to the panel 111 and the other end having a convex portion 114a located at a part of the cut portion 113d. The dropping means 114 is supported on the dropping means support portion 116 c by the first support means 115. The first support means 115 does not fix the dropping means 114 to the dropping means support portion 116c, but is a hinge or the like that can change the inclination of the dropping means 114 with respect to the support plate 116.

  When one end of the dropping means 114 connected to the panel 111 is pressed, the position of the convex portion 114a is raised by the seesaw operation with the first support means 115 as a fulcrum. The panel 111 is inclined with the second support means 117b supported by the wall 117a as a fulcrum. Therefore, when the panel 111 is pressed, the connecting portion between the panel 111 and the dropping means 114 is also pushed down, and the convex portion 114a is pushed up. When the convex portion 114a is pushed up, the second prize B on the convex portion 114a is also pushed up, and the second prize B falls when the second prize B is pushed up above the stopper 113c.

  In other words, the first support means 115 is such that the projection 114a of the dropping means 114 is positioned below the placement surface 13a when the panel 111 is not pressed, and the projection 114a is more than the stopper 113c when the panel 111 is pressed. The dropping means 114 is supported so as to be positioned on the top.

  Next, a prize acquisition method by the prize acquisition apparatus 1 according to the first embodiment will be described. The user operates an operation button or the like provided on the operation unit 15 to move the acquisition means 12a and 12b onto the through hole 111a formed in the panel 111 and move it vertically (downward). When the penetrating bar 121 penetrates the through-hole 111a and the tip of the penetrating bar 121 comes into contact with the contact plate 112b, the first prize A held by the first holding means 112 falls from the first holding means 112, and the user Can acquire the first prize A that has been dropped.

  Specifically, the user operates the acquisition unit 12 a in the horizontal direction via the drive mechanism 13 using the operation unit 15, and the through bar 121 is positioned above the through hole 111 a formed in the panel 111. Adjust the position as follows. When the user adjusts the position of the acquisition means 12a in the horizontal direction, the user moves the acquisition means 12a downward using the operation unit 15 and causes the through-rod 121 to penetrate the through-hole 111a. For example, the prize acquisition device 1 can be set to start the movement in the vertical direction of the acquisition means 12a when an end signal indicating that the horizontal position adjustment has been completed is input.

  The penetrating rod 121 passes through the through-hole 111a, the tip of the penetrating rod 121 comes into contact with the contact plate 112b, the acquisition means 12a is further moved downward, and the contact plate 112b is pressed by the penetrating rod 121. The stopper 112c that suspends the plate 112a horizontally with respect to the panel 111 is removed, the mounting plate 112a is tilted, and the first prize on the mounting plate 112a falls.

  Here, when the position of the through-rod 121 is shifted from the position of the through-hole 111a, the through-bar 121 cannot penetrate the through-hole 111a. On the other hand, when the panel 111 is pressed even if the through-rod 121 cannot penetrate the through-hole 111a, the dropping means 114 connected to the panel 111 performs a seesaw operation using the first support means 115 as a fulcrum.

  Specifically, in a state where the panel 111 is not pressed, the convex portion 114a is positioned lower than the placement surface 113a as shown in FIG. On the other hand, when the panel 111 is pressed and the connection surface between the panel 111 and the dropping means 114 is lowered, the dropping means 114 is inclined as shown in FIG. It is pushed up from the mounting surface 113a. When the convex portion 114a is higher than the placement surface 113a and further higher than the stopper 113c, the second prize B1 held by the convex portion 114a on the placement surface 113a is pushed up as shown in FIG. To drop. Further, when the second prize B1 is dropped, the other second prizes B2 to B4 are moved by the inclination of the placement surface 113a.

  Although explanation using illustration is omitted, the first prize A dropped from the first holding means 112 and the second prize B1 dropped from the second holding means 113 are passed through a guide path provided in the prize storage unit 10. The prize is discharged from the prize outlet 14a and obtained by the user.

  That is, the user can acquire the first prize A when the operation is successful. On the other hand, in order to acquire the first prize A, although the acquisition means 12a is operated to pass through the through hole 111a, the alignment of the through bar 121 to the through hole 111a fails, and the through bar 121 is moved to the panel 111. May hit. In the prize acquisition device 1, when the penetrating bar 121 hits the panel 111 in this way, the dropping means 114 causes the second prize B to fall, so that even if the user fails in the game, the user will receive the first prize. 2 prizes can be earned.

  Here, although it is not so difficult for the user to align the acquisition means 12 on the panel 111, it is difficult to align the through bar 121 on the through hole 111a. Therefore, many users can acquire the second prize B, which is a disappointing prize, as a result of the user's operation, that is, alignment, even when the first prize A cannot be obtained. it can.

  For example, when the penetrating rod 121 comes into contact with the contact plate 112b or the panel 11 and is pressed with a predetermined force, the acquisition unit 12a is driven upward and moved to the original position, and is terminated.

  Since the configuration and function of the acquisition unit 12b are the same as the configuration and function of the acquisition unit 12a described above, description thereof is omitted here.

  Further, the configuration of the first holding means 112 and the method of holding the prize are not limited, and any configuration and holding method may be used as long as the prize held by the penetrating rod 121 is dropped. For example, instead of the method of placing the first prize A on the placement board 112a, a hook that can hang a prize or a package for packaging the prize is provided on the contact board 112b, and the contact board 112b is parallel to the panel 111. In this case, the prize may be held, and the prize may be dropped when the contact plate 112b is pressed by the penetrating rod 121 and is not parallel to the panel 111.

  Furthermore, the mounting surface 113a of the second holding means 113 may be formed as a flat surface or a so-called roller conveyor that can feed a prize in one direction using a roller. In addition, when using a roller conveyor, it is not necessary to incline, but the prize on the placing surface formed by the roller conveyor is provided with a stopper on one side where the prize moves and dropped. It is necessary to provide a notch for dropping the second prize B when the convex portion 114a of the means 114 is pushed up.

  For example, when the prize is a rectangular parallelepiped shape, the placement surface 113a of the roller conveyor is effective because the prize is easy to slide. When the roller can be rotated electrically in the roller conveyor, the mounting surface 113a does not need to be inclined. Alternatively, the prize may be packed in a cylindrical or spherical package so that the prize can easily slide on the flat placement surface 113a.

  As described above, the prize acquisition device 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention includes the second holding means 113 that holds the second prize, which is a disappointing prize, and the dropping means 114 that drops the second prize. ing. As a result, the user who uses the prize acquisition device 1 is a disappointing prize according to the operation not only when the operation is successful but also when the operation fails and the first prize cannot be acquired. Since 2 prizes can be obtained, the user's sense of achievement can be improved.

Second Embodiment
With reference to FIG. 4, a premium acquisition device according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. The prize acquisition device according to the second embodiment includes a prize discharge mechanism 11a shown in FIG. 4 in place of the prize discharge mechanism 11 shown in FIG. 2, as compared with the prize acquisition device 1 described above with reference to FIG. Is different. Note that in the prize acquisition device according to the second embodiment, the configuration other than the prize discharge mechanism 11a is the same as that of the prize acquisition device 1 described above with reference to FIGS. Omitted.

  In the prize acquisition mechanism 11 described above with reference to FIG. 2, the panel 111 is supported by using the panel support part 116a and the wall part 117a of the support plate 116, the second support means 117b, and the third support means 117c. In contrast, in the prize acquisition mechanism 1 a shown in FIG. 4, the panel 111 is supported only by the dropping means 114 supported by the first support means 115. Therefore, in the prize acquisition mechanism 11a according to the second embodiment, the panel 111 is pressed by simply using the weight of the panel 111 and the dropping means 114 and the positional relationship between the panel 111, the dropping means 114, and the first support means 115. In such a state, the protrusion 114a is adjusted so as not to be higher than the mounting surface 113a. Further, since the movable range of the first support means 115 is limited, the panel 111 and the dropping means 114 can be balanced.

  In addition to the method of fixing the panel 111 and the dropping means 114, the panel 111 and the dropping means 114 may be integrated, and a part of the panel 111 may be used as the dropping means 114.

  Even in the prize acquisition device according to the second embodiment, when the first prize A falls when the through-rod 121 passes through the through-hole 111a and presses the contact plate 112a, the user removes the first prize A. Can be earned. In addition, when the second prize B falls when the penetrating rod 121 cannot press the through-hole 111a and presses the panel 111 and the convex portion 114a becomes higher than the stopper 113c, the user drops the second prize B. Can be earned.

  As described above, in the prize acquisition device according to the second embodiment of the present invention, as in the case of the first embodiment, the second holding means 113 for holding the second prize, which is a disappointing prize, and the second prize are provided. It has dropping means 114 for dropping. As a result, the user who uses the prize acquisition device 1 can acquire the second prize, which is a disappointment award, not only when the operation is successful but also when the operation fails. Improve the user's sense of achievement.

  Further, in the prize acquisition device according to the second embodiment, the configuration of the panel support 116a, the wall 117a used for supporting the panel, the second support 117b, the third support 117c, and the like is unnecessary, and the first implementation. The configuration can be made easier than the prize acquisition device according to the embodiment.

  In addition, in the example described above with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4, the cross-sectional shape of the through-rod 121 and the shape of the through-hole 111 a are circular, but if the through-rod 121 can penetrate the through-hole 111 a, The shape is not limited. At this time, when the size of the through-rod 121 is closer to the through-hole 111a, the through-bar 121 is less likely to be penetrated through the through-hole 111a.

  In addition, the length of the penetrating rod 121 may be made extendable to adjust the difficulty level. That is, when the length of the penetrating bar 121 is adjusted to be short, the difficulty level is high, and when the length of the penetrating bar 121 is adjusted to be long, the difficulty level is low.

  Furthermore, the thickness of the through-rod 121 and the size of the through-hole 111a can be adjusted for difficulty adjustment. That is, in the case of the same thickness of the through-rod 121, the difficulty level is lower when the size of the through-hole 111a is larger than the smaller size. Further, in the case of the same size of the through hole 111a, the difficulty is lower when the through bar 121 is thinner than thicker. For example, the through rod 121 can be replaced, and the difficulty level can be adjusted.
