The special winning opening 23 is closed for the second time, and stops 4.0 to 0.6 seconds after 4.0 seconds have elapsed (see FIG. 21).
[0084]
  When the pachinko ball that has won the grand prize opening 23 wins the specific prize opening 38, the continuous operation device is activated, and the big prize opening 23 is closed for 4.0 seconds and then continuously opened and closed 18 times in 25.9 seconds. . Of the 18 consecutive opening and closing times, the opening time of each time of the grand prize opening 23 from the first time to the sixth time and the 16th time to the 18th time is defined as 0.4 seconds, and the closing time is defined as 1.1 seconds, The opening time of each time of the big winning opening 23 from the seventh time to the 15th time is defined as 0.6 seconds and the closing time is defined as 0.9 seconds (see FIG. 22).
[0085]
  Also, the opening / closing of the special winning opening 23 is stopped when the number of winning balls in the large winning opening 23 is counted during the 18 consecutive opening / closing operations (see FIG. 23).
[0086]
  When the pachinko ball again wins the specific prize opening 38 during the 18 consecutive opening / closing of the big prize opening 23, the big prize opening 23 is closed for 4.0 seconds at the time of the winning and then resumes the 18 times continuous opening / closing (FIG. 24). reference). The number of repetitions of the 18 consecutive opening / closing of the special winning opening 23 is defined as 16 times at maximum including the first number.
[0087]
  The upper rotating body 48 starts a clockwise rotation operation when the pachinko ball wins the specific winning opening 38, and the large winning opening 23 during the 18 consecutive opening / closing of the large winning opening 23 is 0 to 0 after the tenth opening. After 2.4 seconds, the rotation operation is stopped at a fixed position, and when the grand prize opening 33 is opened for the 17th time, the intermittent rotation operation at the time of turning on the power which is rotated for 2.4 seconds and stopped for 0.2 seconds is resumed ( (See FIG. 23).
[0088]
  In addition, the upper rotating body 48 that has started rotating by winning a prize at the specific prize opening 38 counts from 0 to 2 after four winning balls are counted at the big prize opening 23 during the 18 consecutive opening / closing of the big prize opening 23. After 4 seconds, the rotation operation is stopped at a fixed position, and when the number of winning balls is counted, the intermittent rotation operation when the power is turned on is resumed (see FIG. 23).
[0089]
  The lower rotating body 54 starts a counterclockwise rotation operation when the pachinko ball wins the specific winning opening 38, and after the continuous opening and closing of the large winning opening 23 is completed 18 times, the effective time of the continuous operation device has elapsed 4.0 seconds. Then, it stops at a fixed position in 0 to 0.6 seconds (see FIG. 22).
[0090]
  In addition, the lower rotating body 54 has an effective time of the continuous operating device after the number of winning balls to the big prize opening 23 is counted and the big prize opening 23 is closed during the 18 consecutive opening / closing of the big prize opening 23. It stops at a fixed position 0 to 0.6 seconds after 0 seconds have elapsed (see FIG. 23).
[0091]
