DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a prize winning device for a pachinko machine in which a winning mode of a hit ball can be changed by forward / reverse rotation of a pair of switching wing members.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Heretofore, as a prize apparatus capable of increasing or decreasing the chance of winning balls, a pair of opening / closing wings are provided on both sides of a winning opening formed in a mounting plate with an interval of about one hit ball. There is a type in which a piece is pivotally supported, and the ball is inserted between the two opening / closing wing pieces to alternately perform a parallel standing operation and an inverted octagonal tilting operation.

Further, as a prize device for receiving many prize balls at a time, a variable display device is electrically operated when a hit ball enters a specific prize hole of a game board, and a display portion of the variable display device is operated under a specific condition. When the condition is satisfied, tilt the opening / closing door of the winning opening established on the mounting plate forward, receive a hit ball falling down with the opening / closing plate, win a prize, and continue to open until the specified number of winning balls enter. There is one of the type.

[0004]

However, in the former method, the opening / closing wing pieces only repeat an inverted octagonal tilting operation or a parallel standing operation so that one hit ball is inserted one by one, and the operation is monotonous and the amount of prize balls generated. Due to the small number of players, the prize-winning device lacks amusement, so that there is a problem that it does not add interest to the game and cannot give a sufficient satisfaction to the player.

[0005] In the latter, when the opening and closing door of the winning opening is opened, the hit ball wins at a stretch, so it is interesting, but the flow of the hit ball is monotonous, and the interest is not maintained and the player is completely interested. Not enough to give. Also, since the leading edge of the opening and closing door is close to the glass door when opened, the hit ball stops on the leading edge of the opening and closing door, and when the opening and closing door closes, the winning ball is sandwiched between the winning holes, This could cause the door to malfunction. The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a winning device for a pachinko machine that gives a sufficient satisfaction to a player and does not cause a malfunction.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, a winning device for a pachinko machine according to the present invention is provided on a front surface of a mounting plate.
Section with a receiving port and attached frames on both sides.
Below the entrance, the upper surface slopes down to both sides starting from the center.
A guide member is provided to project the hit ball that has flowed in from the receiving port to the left and right, and a ball inlet is opened below the guide member. On both sides of the ball inlet, the ball is turned in forward and reverse directions by the operation of a solenoid. The hitting ball falling from the guide member is guided outward or the hitting ball falling from the guide member is guided to the ball entrance.

[0007]

When the pair of switching wing members are tilted outward in a figure eight shape by the operation of the solenoid , the ball inlet is closed by both switching wing members. Thus, the hit ball that has flowed in from above is received by the guide member and is distributed to either the left or right, and is guided to the switching wing member and flows out as it is to the outside. On the other hand, when the pair of switching wing members are tilted in an inverted figure of eight toward each other, the ball entrance is opened. As a result, although the hit ball that has flowed in from above is received by the guide member and is distributed to either the left or right, it hits both switching wing members and is guided as it is to enter the ball entrance.
