When the game ball is distributed to the first specific area 3i, as shown in steps 113 to 119 in FIG. 4 and steps 120 to 131 in FIG. 5, the accessory control unit 13a receives a detection signal from the first specific switch 14e. Is received and is stopped after a predetermined time, and if the determined symbol that has been stopped is a preset primary specific symbol such as “To” or “V”, one big hit For example, the number of continuous games that is advantageous to the player in the game is, for example, a maximum of 18 open / close times of the grand prize winning opening 3c, and a maximum of 18 consecutive opening / closing of the big winning prize opening 3c is continued for 15 continuous games. In the case where the number of continuations of the jackpot game is determined to be the preset primary setting continuation number “15”, and the stopped design pattern is a secondary specific figure such as “pistol” or “bullet” set in advance For example, a continuous game in which the maximum number of opening / closing of the prize winning opening 3c is 18 as a set, and the opening / closing of the maximum winning opening 3c is 18 as a set is advantageous for the player during one big hit. The number of continuations of the jackpot game is determined to be a preset secondary setting continuation number “1” so as to continue once, and the big winning opening 3c is opened and closed in the range of the determined opening / closing times and continued. It is determined whether or not the number of times n has reached the set number of consecutive times N set in step 117 or step 118 of FIG. 4. If the number of continued times n> the set number of consecutive times N, the gate opening / closing body 3n is bypassed by the bypass passage 3m. Then, the gate 3k is closed again, and the left and right movable bodies 3r are driven to rotate upward inward from the solid line position to the dotted line position. As shown in FIG. 9, the game ball that has won the winning area 3b while closed passes through the lead-out passage 3e, contacts the gate opening / closing body 3n, and cannot enter the gate 3k. For example, a maximum of three game balls are temporarily stored on the movable body 3r as shown in FIG. 8 through the front of the left and right outlets 3q through the parting determination symbol display portion 3p. It falls further and enters the detachment area 3t.
[0024]
The opening / closing of the big prize opening 3c accompanying the winning of the game ball to the first specific area 3i reaches 18 times, or the exit passage 3e is taken from the winning area 3b counted by the count switch 14c while the big prize opening 3c is opened / closed. When any one of the number of game balls passed reaches a predetermined number such as 10, for example, the accessory control unit 13a opens and closes 18 jackpot opening / closing of the big prize opening 3c in the middle Even if it is stopped, the movable body 3r rotates downward from the state shown in FIG. 8 to the state shown in FIG. 6, and the game ball temporarily stored on the movable body 3r shown in FIG. At the same time, the possibility of falling toward the second specific area 3s and entering the second specific area 3s is formed.
[0025]
When the movable body 3r is lowered, all of the game balls enter the disengagement area 3t, and if no game ball wins the second specific area 3s, the big hit game is terminated as it is.
[0026]
On the contrary, when the game ball wins the second specific area 3s as shown in FIG. 9 as the movable body 3r is lowered, as shown in steps 129 to 131 in FIG. The unit 13a counts up the number of continuations n, and after starting the jackpot opening / closing of the winning prize opening 3c a maximum of 18 times, returns to step 120 and sets the number of continuations n set in step 117 or 118. If the set number of times N has not been reached, it is possible to temporarily store the game ball by raising the movable body 3r and to enter the second specific area 3s by lowering the movable body 3r. When the number of continuations n = the set number of continuations N is repeated, the opening / closing of the big prize opening 3c accompanying the winning of the game ball to the first specific area 3i is 18 times without executing step 121. Or the number of game balls that have passed through the lead-out passage 3e from the winning area 3b counted by the count switch 14c during opening / closing of the big winning opening 3c reaches a predetermined number such as ten, for example. In this case, at that time, the accessory control unit 13a stops the 18-hit opening / closing of the big prize opening 3c even in the middle thereof, and then drives the gate opening / closing body 3n backward from the detour passage 3m. The jackpot game as a continuous game of a maximum of 18 × 15 or a maximum of 18 × 1 by winning a game ball at the seed start port 7 is ended.
[0027]
In short, according to this embodiment, the variable display of the determination symbols in the plurality of determination symbol display units 3p is started when the power is turned on, and the game area in the band 2 of the game board 1 shown in FIG. When the game ball bounced on wins the second type starting port 7 shown in FIG. 1, the large winning port 3c of the accessory 3 is initially opened or closed once or several times, and the game ball is in the winning area during the initial opening and closing. When winning 3b, one of the winning game balls is captured from the winning area 3b to the gate 3k, and when the game ball enters the gate 3k, the determination symbol display unit 3p stops variable display of the determination symbol, If the game ball is distributed from the gate 3k to either the first specific area 3i or the out-of-area 3j according to the combination of the judgment symbols that have been stopped, and the game ball is allocated to the out-of-area 3j, a prize outside the figure at that time Predetermined by ball discharge mechanism When the winning ball is distributed to the first specific area 3i by supplying the winning ball once to the upper plate set and ending the big hit game by the action of the accessory 3, the game ball is distributed to the first specific area 3i. A winning ball discharge mechanism (not shown) supplies a predetermined number of winning balls to the upper plate set for each winning, and the gate opening / closing body 3n closes the gate 3k to allow the winning of game balls to the first specific area 3i.

The number of continuations of the big hit opening / closing by the continuous opening / closing of the winning prize opening 3c is determined according to the determined design, and the movable body 3r is rotated upward from the position indicated by the solid line in FIG. Within the number of continuations When the winning opening 3c is opened and closed in a jackpot, and a game ball wins the winning area 3b during the jackpot opening and closing, the winning game ball is guided and temporarily stored on the movable body 3r stopped and lifted in the detour passage 3m. The game balls that could not be temporarily stored on the movable body 3r enter the lower release area 3t from above the movable body 3r, and for each number of game balls that entered the release area 3t, a prize ball discharge mechanism (not shown) is used. While a predetermined number of hit balls are supplied to the upper plate set, the number of times of continuous opening and closing such as a maximum of 18 times of opening / closing of the big prize opening 3c accompanying the winning of the game ball to the first specific area 3i is reached or the same size When either one of the number of game balls passing through the lead-out passage 3e reaches a predetermined number from the winning area 3b counted by the count switch 14c while the winning opening 3c is continuously opened and closed, at that time, the big winning opening 3c open While stopping the closing, the movable body 3r is lowered and rotated from the position indicated by the dotted line to the position indicated by the solid line in FIG. 2, and the game ball temporarily stored on the movable body 3r is directed toward the second specific area 3s. If all of the falling game balls fall into the disengagement area 3t and no game ball wins the second specific area 3s, the big hit game with continuous opening and closing of the big prize opening 3c is finished as it is, and the movable body If even one of the game balls falling from 3r wins the second specific area 3s, a predetermined number of winning balls are awarded by a prize ball discharge mechanism (not shown) for each winning game ball in the second specific area 3s. In addition to supplying to the upper plate set, the winning opening 3c is continuously opened and closed up to 18 times, and the number of continuations is counted up. Until the counted number of continuations n reaches the set number of continuations N, the movable body 3r Of the game ball by ascending The game with the possibility that the game ball may enter the second specific area 3s due to the time storage and the lowering of the movable body 3r is repeated, and when the counted number of continued times n reaches the set number of continued times N, the movable body 3r is raised. Opening / closing the big prize opening 3c associated with winning a prize in the first specific area 3i without executing a game in which the game ball may temporarily enter the second specific area 3s due to temporary storage of the game balls by the lowering of the movable body 3r Or the number of game balls that have passed through the lead-out path 3e from the winning area 3b counted by the count switch 14c during opening / closing of the big winning opening 3c reaches a predetermined number such as ten. If either of them is achieved, then the accessory control unit 13a stops the 18-hit opening / closing of the big prize opening 3c even in the middle, and then opens the gate 3k with the gate opening / closing body 3n. Then, the big hit game as the continuous game of continuous opening and closing of the big winning opening 3c by winning the game ball at the second type starting opening 7 is finished, and the next game ball is prepared for winning at the second type starting opening 7. .
