Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a pachinko game mechanism provided in a pachinko game hall.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art If a player at a pachinko game hall wins a large number of prize balls due to a so-called jackpot, etc., the player continues the game by putting the prize balls in a ball box made of synthetic resin and storing them around them. . For this reason, there is a problem that the inside of the store is crowded because it interferes with other players and sticks out into the aisle.

Further, when a large number of prize balls obtained by the player are stored in a ball box as described above, the number of balls circulating in the island stand is reduced, which hinders normal ball circulation. Was likely to occur. As a result, the amount of pachinko balls required for sales increased. In addition, since a ball box containing a pachinko ball is often heavy and cannot be carried by one person, it is complicated because a store clerk needs to assist the prize exchange work. In particular, when the store is closed, the use of the counter for exchanging the prizes is crowded, so that mistakes are likely to occur and cause trouble with the store clerk.

Further, as a pachinko machine which solves the above problems, a counter for counting prize balls and a printer for printing out the count value are provided as disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 4-19755. It is also known, but if the number of prize balls is simply printed on the sheet, even if a large number of prize balls are paid out, it will appeal to other players about the payout status of the pachinko machine. Because I can't
There is a problem that the advertising effect that is important for the management of the pachinko game hall cannot be obtained.

[0005]

Therefore, the present invention eliminates various confusions that occur due to storing prize balls in a ball box during a game as described above, and also extremely reduces the amount of pachinko balls required for business. It is intended to provide a pachinko game mechanism that does not increase the number.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows the front surface of an island stand in a pachinko game hall, 1 is a pachinko machine main body arranged side by side on a counter plate 2, and 3 and 4 are ball lending machines and wind cases provided between the respective pachinko machine main bodies 1. Is. As is well known, the ball lending machine 3 accepts cash or a predetermined prepaid card 9
When inserted into the pachinko machine, the pachinko ball is directly lent to the upper tray 5 on the front surface of the pachinko machine body 1 through the lending gutter 6. 7 is a lower plate on the front of the pachinko machine body 1, 8
Is a handle for firing a ball. Reference numeral 10 is a call lamp provided on the top of each pachinko machine body 1.

As shown in FIG. 2, the wind case 4 is a thin and vertically long pachinko ball storage case having a transparent window 11 provided on the front surface thereof, and the transparent window 11 on the front surface of the wind case 4 is provided. A return button 12 and a gutter-shaped return port 13 are provided on the lower side of the bottom, and a ball discharge gutter 14 is provided on the rear side of the return port 13.
Is provided, and the ball discharge gutter 14 is provided with a ball counter 15. The ball discharge gutter 14 faces an out-ball collecting gutter (not shown) in the island stand. Further, an adjustment button 16, a printer 17, a sheet discharge port 18 thereof, and a replenishing device 19 are provided on the upper portion of the wind case 4, and the replenishing device 19 is provided with a ball replenishing gutter (Fig. A hose 20 that communicates with (not shown) is provided.

Reference numeral 21 is a ball pulling lever provided on the lower tray 7 on the front surface of the pachinko machine body 1, and 22 is a hopper provided further below the lower tray 7. When the ball removing lever 21 is operated, the bottom portion of the lower plate 7 is opened and the prize balls accumulated in the lower plate 7 fall into the hopper 22. The prize balls dropped in the hopper 22 pass through the counter 23. It is discharged to the out-ball gathering gutter in Shimadai. The number of prize balls counted by the counter 23 is supplied to the wind case 4 as a deposit ball through the replenisher 19.

Therefore, when the prize balls in the lower plate 7 are full, the player operates the ball extracting lever 21 to discharge the prize balls to the out ball collecting gutter through the hopper 22 so that the same number of balls can be discharged. Are counted by the supply device 19 from the ball supply gutter and supplied into the wind case 4. The deposited ball can be seen through the transparent window 11, and the player can operate the return button 12 to receive the deposited ball in the wind case 4 through the return port 13 at any time and use it in the game. .

When the player finishes the game, the player presses the settlement button 16 to discharge the deposit balls in the transparent window 11 through the ball counter 15 and the ball discharge gutter 14 into the out-ball collecting gutter, and the ball counter 15 Since the count value in is printed on the sheet by the printer 17 and discharged from the sheet discharge port 18, the player can go to the prize exchange with the printed sheet.

Reference numeral 24 denotes a ball holding display panel consisting of a segment display provided further above the calling lamp 10 of each pachinko machine body 1, so that the display panel 24 cannot be held in the wind case 4. When a larger number of prize balls are won, the number is displayed digitally. Reference numeral 25 is a ball sensor provided for that purpose to detect the level of the deposit ball in the wind case 4.
