Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an employee management system.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In game stores, for example, game stores equipped with pachinko machines, pachislot machines, etc., employees who respond to various errors in the game machines and provide various services to customers are located in the game store (in the hall). In order to respond to the occurrence of work, it is waiting or patrol.
For example, there are various types of specific work for such employees as described below.
[0003]
・ Billing work
A bill holder is an operation that puts a bill that appeals the gaming state and a game (out medal) in a gaming machine into an island facility at the upper part of the gaming machine. For example, a game is permitted by using the game machine as it is. Inserting an unlimited number of cards indicating that the game will be played, inserting a jackpot when a jackpot occurs, or placing a tag (1000) that identifies the given ball on a predetermined number of balls It is. A bill holder is a task that is frequently performed, but is a relatively simple task.
[0004]
・ Ball stop work
The ball stop is an operation of releasing the game ball stopped between the obstacle nails or the like on the game board surface, and the game store may later perform an operation of putting the game ball into the winning opening as a service. Ball stopping is also a relatively simple task.
・ Supply check work
The replenishment check is an operation for solving problems such as a ball stop in a replenishing device for supplying game balls to a pachinko gaming machine and a ball stop in a back mechanism of the pachinko gaming machine itself. The replenishment check is an operation that requires a certain amount of knowledge about the replenishing device and the back mechanism, although it does not require labor.
[0005]
・ Box lowering work
When a box hit occurs and a ball box placed on the box mounting shelf in front of the gaming machine becomes full, the filled ball box is lowered to the player's feet. It is an operation to give an empty ball box to the player. The box lowering is a relatively labor-intensive operation for lowering with a full ball box.
・ Carrying work
Carrying a box is an operation for carrying a player's outgoing ball (out medal) in the vicinity of the gaming machine to a counter. In this case, a cart may be used. Carrying a box may require a single player to carry a large number of full ball boxes, and requires considerable effort to carry them to a counter away from the gaming machine. Work.
[0006]
・ Replenishment work
The replenishment is an operation of opening a frame and replenishing a new medal when BB or the like is generated and no medal is left in the hopper of the pachislot machine. Replenishment is a relatively simple task.
・ Pushing work
In the case of a player who cannot win a bonus symbol even though bonuses (BB, RB) etc. are won internally in a pachislot machine, the bonus symbol is arranged on behalf of that player. . The aim is work that does not require labor, but requires knowledge of each pachislot machine and considerable technical skills.
[0007]
By performing such work reliably and promptly, the service of the game store is in good order, and the number of visits by the player is increased. For example, in order for a player to call a waiting employee and ask for work as described above, for example, a call device having a call button is provided on each gaming machine of the island facility, When this call button is pressed, the call lamp provided on the call device is turned on, and the representative call lamp installed on the end of the island facility is turned on, and the call button is pushed to the waiting employee. The player is notified that there is a player. At this time, if the employee comes quickly, the player is likely to make a good impression on the amusement store.
[0008]
On the other hand, an employee who performs the above-mentioned work waits in the hall or patrols and, when the above-mentioned work needs to occur, go to the gaming machine where the work is necessary and perform the work. However, since there are a plurality of employees as described above in the hall, there is a possibility that there is a considerable difference in the amount of work between employees who act quickly and employees who do not. In addition, if there are few employees who act quickly, there is a possibility that the player who pressed the call button will wait for a long time as described above, and it may be offended, and further, the player who pressed the call button cannot play In some cases, the operation of the gaming machine decreases while waiting for the employee without playing the game. Therefore, it is necessary to properly evaluate the amount of work of employees and quick response, but it is difficult to manage the amount of work of individual employees and it is difficult to evaluate the work of employees properly. there were.
Therefore, conventionally, an employee management system that monitors the position of the employee and manages the behavior of the employee by obtaining the movement trajectory and movement distance of the employee has been considered (for example, see Patent Document 1). .
[0009]
[Patent Document 1]
JP-A-8-279061 (page 3-4)
[0010]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, the conventional employee management system merely monitors the movement of the employee, and it is difficult to reliably manage the employee's work because it cannot be identified whether the employee has moved for the work or not. Furthermore, in recent amusement stores, there are a wide variety of work performed by employees as described above, and the number of employees in amusement stores has also increased, so various work performed by each employee. In contrast, conventional systems are difficult to manage.
For example, it is difficult to specify the work content by the movement trajectory of the player, and the data amount becomes enormous to manage the movement trajectories of many employees by data.
[0011]
In addition, when an employee's work contents are evaluated based on the management data obtained by a conventional system, it is impossible to know what kind of work was performed, so every work is evaluated equally. End up. However, as described above, there are various types of work, such as those that are relatively simple and labor-intensive, those that require a predetermined knowledge, and those that require a certain skill. Evaluating evenly is not an equal evaluation.
[0012]
An object of the present invention is to provide an employee management system capable of appropriately evaluating the work contents of individual employees of a game shop.
[0013]

[0014]
Here, the “game machine” includes a ball game machine such as a pachinko game machine, an arrangement ball game machine, and a sparrow ball game machine, a slot machine such as a pachislot game machine, and the like.
The portable terminal device has at least information transmission means, and a plurality of portable terminal devices can be identified by unique identification information, and an employee carrying the portable terminal device can be identified. At the time of work, for example, information that can specify work information and unique identification information related to the work of the employee can be transmitted by an operation of the employee or the like. The unique identification information may be other than information stored in advance in the portable terminal device. It is also possible to input information that can identify an employee, such as, and use this input information as unique identification information. That is, the unique identification information may be any information as long as it can identify the employee who has worked.
[0015]
In addition, the mobile terminal device preferably includes, for example, information input means (such as an information input operation means) for inputting information for identifying the type of work performed by the employee as work information.
The work information includes the types of work such as the above-mentioned bill holder, ball stop, replenishment check, etc., and information for counting the number of work in a predetermined period (by the operation of the employee at the start or end of work, etc. Necessary for measuring the response time from when the work such as the ON signal transmitted from the portable terminal device) or the pressing of the call button as described above is required until the work actually starts or ends. Information (may be the above-mentioned ON signal or the like).
[0016]
The gaming equipment device is, for example, a device installed in the vicinity of a gaming machine of island equipment, and includes a receiving means for information transmitted from the mobile terminal device, and a management device for managing the work of employees. Information can be transmitted. In addition, the gaming equipment device may have a function as the above-described calling device, may have a function of receiving information output from the gaming machine, and further, may output information output from the gaming machine. A function of relaying to the management apparatus may be provided.
[0017]
Based on the work-related information (including work information transmitted from the mobile terminal device (or information obtained by processing this)) input from the gaming equipment device, the management device obtains work-related data related to the work of the employee. Although it is collected and managed, for example, it may be provided with a function as a so-called hole management device that collects and manages data related to games output from each gaming machine.
[0018]
  The work-related information includes, for example, work information and unique identification information received from the mobile terminal device, and timing (date, time, information used for calculating the corresponding time, etc.) when these pieces of information are received. Information based on reception from the mobile terminal device. The work related information also includes work response time information and information that can identify the gaming machine that performed the work. Furthermore, the work-related information may include information such as information output from the gaming machine and timing when information is output from the gaming machine.
  Work-related data is data obtained based on the above-described work-related information.
  The operating status is, for example, information indicating a crowded state of a gaming store such as whether there are many or few gaming machines that a player is playing, that is, a ratio of gaming machines that are operating with respect to all gaming machines in a gaming store. is there. The monitoring of the operating status is, for example, a gaming machine such as a signal indicating the number of game balls that are output from a gaming machine, island facility, etc. per hour (a count value of a recovered ball detection signal output from the island facility). It may be obtained from various signals indicating that it is operating, for example, a sensor that counts the number of customers visiting and leaving the store at the entrance, etc., obtaining the number of visitors in the amusement store, and from this indirectly the operating status It may be monitored.
[0019]
According to the first aspect of the present invention, work-related data is collected and managed based on work information from a portable terminal device carried by the employee, so that the work status of the employee can be managed accurately and reliably. .
In particular, the work of a game store is mainly performed by a gaming machine. Therefore, an employee can play a game by receiving information from a portable terminal device with a game equipment device arranged in the vicinity thereof. The work information can be transmitted easily and reliably corresponding to the execution of the work on the machine.
[0020]
That is, information that can identify the employee carrying the mobile terminal device and information related to the work performed by the employee are transmitted from the mobile terminal device, and the information is received by the gaming equipment device in the vicinity of the gaming machine. Will be. Then, work related information based on the information received by the gaming equipment device is sent to the management device and managed as work related data.
Therefore, the work contents of each employee can be managed based on the work information. In addition, by counting the number of times that information that can identify work information and unique identification information has been transmitted from the mobile terminal device with the gaming equipment device or the management device, the number of work operations of the identified employee can be counted, The total number of operations and the number of operations for each operation type of the identified employee can be obtained.
[0021]
In addition, since the game equipment is arranged in the vicinity of the gaming machine where the work is performed or the work is started, depending on which game equipment has received information from the mobile terminal device, each employee It is possible to specify the place (game machine) where the worker's work was performed, and to specify the time when the work was performed depending on when the information was received from the portable terminal device. In addition, if it is possible to obtain information on the game situation (external signal output from the gaming machine) when the gaming machine at the place where the work was performed is performed, not only information from the portable terminal device The work content can also be estimated from the game situation information.
[0023]
  AlsoIt is possible to evaluate the work of legitimate employees according to the number of work.
  That is, based on the number of operations as work-related data of each employee (specified employee) that can be obtained based on the number of times information is received from the portable terminal device, the work-related data management means of the management device The evaluation data creating means creates employee evaluation data. That is, since the number of operations can be obtained as described above, evaluation data that can evaluate each employee can be easily created based on the obtained number of operations.
  Moreover, although the work burden of an employee changes according to the operating condition of a game machine, the evaluation data according to the work burden can be created. For example, the work load also changes according to the operating situation in the amusement store, such as an increase in the burden on the employee at times such as the evening when the amusement store is crowded. For example, if the operating status is high, the situation where work is required increases quantitatively, which not only increases the work load on employees, but also makes it impossible to move smoothly inside the amusement store when the amusement store is crowded. In addition, there is an increase in labor for carrying a ball box in a work load for carrying out a quick response and a box carrying work.
[0024]
  Claim2The invention described in claim 11In the employee management system described in
  The mobile terminal device has work type input means for inputting the type of work performed by an employee, and transmits work type information as the work information based on an input result of the work type input means.
  The evaluation data creating means creates the evaluation data reflecting the type of work performed by the employee.
[0025]
Here, the work type input means is an input device such as a key for a portable device, a pointing device, or a dial capable of inputting a work type performed by an employee, for example, a key to which each work type is assigned in advance. An input device provided with (button), an input device capable of selecting a menu of work types in the display screen such as a dial, a lever, or the like.
[0026]
  Claim2According to the invention described in (1), the type of work performed by the employee can be reliably grasped by the management apparatus, and the equal evaluation of the work of each employee can be performed.
  That is, an employee inputs the type of work he / she has performed as a work type to the mobile terminal device, and the mobile terminal device transmits the input work type as work information, whereby work information indicating the work type is amusement equipment. It can be transmitted to the management apparatus as work-related information via the apparatus. Thereby, the evaluation data creation means of the management apparatus can create evaluation data in which the work type is reflected in the number of work.
  For example, you can create evaluation data that corresponds to the number of work for each work type, decide the work point per work for each work type, convert the work number to work point and use it as evaluation data, When taking an average or the like, it is also possible to obtain an average obtained by performing weighting corresponding to the work type. In addition to the data of the number of operations, the evaluation data may be evaluation data for performing an operation of a type that can be performed only by a person having predetermined knowledge, skill, and the like.
[0027]
  Claim3The invention described in claim 11 or claim 2In the employee management system described in
  The gaming equipment device
  Detecting means for detecting that the gaming machine is in a state requiring work;
  A time-counting means for measuring the response time of the work by the employee after becoming a state requiring the work;
And transmitting the information that can identify the corresponding time measured by the time measuring means as the work-related information to the management device,
  The evaluation data creating means creates the evaluation data reflecting the working time of the employee.
[0028]
Here, the “working time” is the time from the occurrence of a state requiring work in a gaming machine or a player playing on the gaming machine until the employee goes to the gaming machine or player. Alternatively, it may be the time from the occurrence of a state requiring the work to the end of the work. For example, in a bill insertion work in which a jackpot is inserted, after a jackpot occurs, it is detected that the employee has gone to a gaming machine by receiving information from the mobile terminal device of the employee who rushed due to the occurrence of the jackpot. It is possible to measure the time from the occurrence to the game machine and use this as the work response time.
[0029]
In the ball stop operation, the ball stop is assumed to be completed when the glass frame is closed after the ball stop is released (opening / closing of the glass frame is detected by a sensor provided in the gaming machine). A player who knows that the event has occurred, for example, measures the time from when the call button of the call device is pressed until the end of the work, and sets it as the work response time.
For example, work related to the gaming machine itself, for example, the above-mentioned ball stop, replenishment check, replenishment, pushing, and other errors, etc., is a state in which the player waits until the work is completed and the game cannot be played. Therefore, it is preferable to set the time until the end of the work as the corresponding time. Also, the end of work related to the gaming machine itself can be easily detected by the signal output from the gaming machine, such as the signal output from the sensor when the glass frame is closed. High nature.
On the other hand, in bill holders, box lowering, box carrying, etc., the player can basically play a game (the game machine has no problem), so the time until the stage where the employee rushed can be used as the response time. good. In the case of work that is not directly related to the gaming machine, it is highly likely that it is difficult to specify the work end time by a signal output from the gaming machine.
[0030]
  Claim3According to the invention described in (4), it is possible to evaluate the work of a legitimate employee in accordance with the work response speed. In addition, since the speed at which the work is handled is easily used as a judgment material when the player determines the service of the amusement store, by evaluating the employee according to the speed at which the work is supported, the game shop itself can finally be evaluated. It leads to improvement of evaluation.
  In addition, you may create the evaluation data which evaluates the response speed separately from the number of work and the work type, or the work for each work number is associated with the corresponding time, or each work type for each work number Evaluation data for evaluating the correspondence speed may be created.
[0041]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

In FIG. 2, the relay device shown in FIG. 1 is simply omitted as a device that relays and outputs the signal output from the calling device 2 to the management device 4, and the gaming machine 100 is simply illustrated. Show. With reference to FIG. 2, the gaming machine 100, the calling device 2, and the management device 4 will be described in detail.
First, the gaming machine 100 in the present embodiment will be described. In this embodiment, a pachinko gaming machine and a pachislot gaming machine are installed in a gaming store as the gaming machine 100 that allows a player to execute a game.
[0048]
The pachinko gaming machine is, for example, a first type of well-known pachinko gaming machine, and includes a game area into which a game ball is driven, and the game area includes a special symbol start winning opening and a special symbol start winning opening. A special symbol variation display device for performing a special variation display game for variably displaying a plurality of types of special symbols based on a winning of a game ball (start prize), and a big hit (special gaming state) as a result of the special variation display game in the variation display device A special variation winning device that opens and closes when it becomes, a general winning opening, a windmill, a side lamp, various decorative lamps / LEDs, an out hole, a number of obstacle nails, and the like are provided.
[0049]
In the above-described special variation display game, a symbol sequence composed of a plurality of types of special symbols is displayed on the variation display device. When the predetermined time has elapsed from the start of the variation display game, the variation display in each variation display area is stopped in the order of left, right, and middle, for example. A stop result mode is derived by stopping and displaying a predetermined special symbol for each.
[0050]
Then, each special symbol that is stopped and displayed in each of the plurality of variable display areas when the variable display game is finished is in a specific stop mode (for example, any one of the numbers “7, 7, 7”, etc.) When the game is formed, a special game state that can give a specific value to the player is generated.
[0051]
Further, the pachinko gaming machine has an operation handle as a launch operation unit for a player to perform a launch operation of a game ball into the game area, and each winning opening (for example, a winning opening of a special variable winning device, a special symbol start) A winning ball detection sensor that detects a game ball that has won a prize ball, a general winning port, etc.), a prize ball discharge unit that pays out a game ball (prize ball) paid out based on the prize, and a prize ball that has been paid out A prize ball detection sensor for detecting a game ball, a ball rental detection sensor for detecting a game ball (rental ball) to be rented, and a game ball for a prize ball discharge unit. A supply tank that supplies a ball, and a supply that detects the remaining amount of game balls in the storage tank and requests the supply of the game balls using the game ball supply facility of the island facility when the remaining amount of game balls is low Supply detection sensor that outputs a signal It is equipped with a door.
In addition, the pachinko gaming machine has a glass frame that is arranged in parallel with the game board on which the game area is formed on the front side and covers the front side of the game area, and a glass frame that detects the opening of the glass frame and outputs an opening signal An opening detection sensor, a front frame that supports the game board, the glass frame, and the like, and a front frame opening detection sensor that detects opening of the front frame and outputs an opening signal.
[0052]
In addition, the pachinko gaming machine includes a control device that performs various controls necessary for the game. The control device includes a control circuit including a CPU, a ROM, a RAM, and an I / F, and performs various controls related to the game. Further, the pachinko gaming machine includes an external output unit 101 that is connected to the control device via an I / F and outputs an external signal under the control of the control device.
[0053]
Then, the control device for the pachinko gaming machine extracts a random number value based on the winning of the game ball to the special figure start winning opening, and compares the extracted random number value with a judgment value stored in advance to play the game A game value (for example, a jackpot of a special figure) to be given to a person is determined, and based on the determination, a variable display that is a big hit is performed on the variable display device.
[0054]
For example, when the random number for jackpot determination of the special figure and the jackpot determination value of the special figure match, the variable display game on the variable display device is displayed in a specific stop mode (for example, “1, 1, 1”, “ 7), and a special gaming state called a jackpot is generated.
In this special gaming state, a cycle in which the opening / closing door of the special variable winning device opens and closes for a predetermined time is defined as one round, and during each round, the game ball wins a continuous winning area in the big winning opening of the special variable winning device. It is a game that continues until a predetermined round (for example, 15 rounds). However, during each round, when a predetermined number (for example, 10) of game balls are won in the big winning opening, the round is ended at that time.
Thus, in the pachinko gaming machine, a special game state advantageous to the player in relation to the fact that the predetermined display mode is set as a result of the variable display game of the identification information displayed on the variable display device. And a predetermined game value (such as an opportunity to acquire a large amount of prize balls) can be given to the player.
[0055]
In addition, when the special gaming state (bonus) is generated, for example, if the random number value for probability variation coincides with the probability variation determination value, the jackpot is determined a predetermined number of times after the special gaming state ends (for example, 1 The probability variation state (specific game state) is generated in which the probability of jackpot occurrence is converted from a normal probability to a high probability until it occurs.
[0056]
The control device outputs a start signal from the external output unit 101 every time the special variation display game is started, and when the special variation display game is a big hit and a special game state occurs, the external output unit 101 A jackpot signal is output, and a probability variation signal is output from the external output unit 101 when it is determined that the probability variation state is entered after the special gaming state is completed.
In addition, the control device of the pachinko machine corresponds to the input of signals from the above-mentioned sensors (winning ball detection sensor, prize ball detection sensor, ball rental detection sensor, replenishment detection sensor, glass frame open detection sensor, etc.). , A winning signal indicating the winning of a game ball to the winning opening, a winning ball signal indicating a payout of a winning ball, a lending signal indicating a lending of a lending ball, a replenishing signal requesting replenishment of a gaming ball, and an opening of a glass frame An open signal or the like is output from the external output unit 101. Each signal output from the external output unit 101 is input to the calling device 2 connected to the external output unit 101.
[0057]
In addition, in the island facility, a game ball (collection ball) that is collected in the collection facility of the island facility after being injected into the game area and then via the winning or out port, corresponding to each pachinko gaming machine. ) Is provided, and a recovery ball signal of the recovery ball detection sensor (the number of recovered game balls is equal to the number of game balls driven into the game area). , Also called a ball-in-ball signal) is output from the detection unit 102 of the island facility and input to the calling device 2. And the signal output from the external output part 101 and the detection part 102 becomes game situation information which shows the game situation in the gaming machine 100.
[0058]
The pachislot machine has a variable display device including, for example, three reels that display a plurality of types of symbols on the outer peripheral surface. Further, by rotating these reels, a plurality of types of symbols can be displayed in a variable manner, and a variable display game (game) with this variable display is performed. As a result of this variable display game, a predetermined game is associated with the fact that the stopped symbols become a predetermined symbol combination mode on a preset active line and a winning result mode is derived (a special prize is established). Value is given to players.
[0059]
In such a pachislot machine, a player performs an operation of inserting a predetermined number (usually 1 to 3 in the case of medals) of game media (here, medals), or a betting button operation when there is a credit (betting operation). ) After the bet number is input, the reel is operated by rotating the start lever to display the symbols in a variable manner, and the reels provided for each reel automatically or after a certain period of time. By operating the stop button, the rotation of each reel is sequentially stopped to form a symbol combination mode (stop result mode). Then, when the reels stop, the symbol combination form formed on the activated line activated in response to the input of the bet number is a predetermined symbol combination aspect (winning result mode, for example, 7 , 7, 7, etc.), a winning is established, and the number of game media corresponding to the winning type is given (paid out) to the player. Further, when the symbol combination mode is a special symbol combination mode for establishing a predetermined special prize, a special gaming state (a so-called bonus state such as a BB (big bonus) state or an RB (regular bonus) state). Is supposed to occur.
[0060]
In addition, the pachislot machine includes a medal slot, a medal detection sensor that detects a medal inserted in the medal slot, a bet switch (sensor) that detects a press of a bet button for a bet operation, and a fluctuation display device.

[0088]
Next, control performed by the employee management system 1 will be described.
In the employee management system 1, in the calling device 2, a signal input from the external output unit 101 of the gaming machine 100 and the detection unit 102 of the island facility, a signal based on the operation of the calling button 2a1 of the calling operation unit 2a, Work monitoring processing is performed based on a signal input from the mobile terminal device 5.
[0089]
Here, regarding work monitoring processing performed by the control device 21 of the calling device 2, a chart showing transmission conditions, work time determination timing and work points for each work type (work name) of work-related information shown in FIG. 5; This will be described in detail with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. In the work monitoring process, information from the mobile terminal device is received, and a transmission process for transmitting work-related information to the management device 4 based on the information, and a state where work is required in the gaming machine. A detection process for detecting the time, a time measurement process for measuring the response time (until the start or end) of the work by the employee, and a response timed by the time measuring means as the work related information Based on the processing for transmitting the time-identifiable information to the management device 4, the gaming status monitoring processing for monitoring the gaming status of the gaming machine that the employee has worked on, and the monitoring result of this processing, the portable terminal And a determination process for determining the validity of the work information received from the device 5.
[0090]
First, a process of constantly monitoring whether a signal that triggers the occurrence of work is received is performed. That is, a process for determining whether or not a signal that triggers the occurrence of work has been received is performed as an interrupt process every short time (step S1). For example, in a signal that is output when an employee can recognize that work is necessary, when the call lamp 2d1 is lit, it can be recognized that work is necessary. This is a case where a call signal based on the operation of the call button 2a1 of the call operation unit 2a, which is a signal for turning on the call lamp 2d1, is turned on.
The signal that triggers the occurrence of work differs depending on the work, and the transmission shown in the chart for pachinko gaming machines in FIG. 5A and the chart for pachislot machines in FIG. 5B. The first signal among the conditional signals is a signal that triggers the occurrence of work in each work type. Note that the transmission conditions, transmission timings, and work time determination timings for each work type shown in FIG. 5 are stored in the ROM 23 of the control device 21 of the calling device 2.
[0091]
Therefore, in the pachinko gaming machine work, in the bill insertion work (here, the jackpot of the jackpot), and in the box lowering work, a signal that triggers the occurrence of the work when the jackpot signal is received from the external output unit 101 of the gaming machine 100. Will be received. At this time, the jackpot lamp 2d2 blinks in the calling device 2, and the employee is notified that work is required.
In the pachinko machine operation, the ball stopping operation, the replenishment inspection operation, the box carrying operation, and other operations are signals that are triggered by the occurrence of the operation.
[0092]
Further, in the pachislot machine, the replenishment work, the box carrying work, the pushing work, and other work are the reception of the signal that triggers the occurrence of the work.
[0093]
Further, the signal that triggers the occurrence of work requires that the control device 21 of the calling device 2 as detection means for detecting that work is required in the gaming machine of the gaming equipment of the present invention requires work in the gaming machine. It becomes a signal for detecting that the state has been reached. The control device 21 of the calling device 2 as the time measuring means for measuring the work response time by the employee after the operation is required when the signal for triggering the work is received requires the work. After that, the time measurement processing of the work response time from the start of the work to the end of the work is started (step S2).
[0094]
Next, based on the lighting of the calling lamp 2d1 of the calling device 2 corresponding to the gaming machine 100 that has received work due to the reception of the calling signal or the blinking of the jackpot lamp 2d2 by the input of the jackpot signal, the employee can play the corresponding game. The work type is discriminated from the portable terminal device 5 by pressing the work buttons 51..., 52... Corresponding to the determined work type of the portable terminal device 5. Information and information indicating that the work has been performed (information for counting the number of work, and any information that is transmitted from the mobile terminal device 5 when the work buttons 51, 52,... Are pressed may be used. ) And the information indicating the work type are transmitted as work information to the calling device 2 in the state of an infrared pulse signal.
[0095]
In the calling device 2, after receiving a signal that triggers work occurrence, the calling device 2 waits for reception of information from the mobile terminal device 5, that is, determines whether or not information is received from the mobile terminal device 5. Repeatedly (step S3).
Note that, for example, the player makes a mistake in the data switching button 2b1 and the call button 2a1, and operates the call button 2a1 again to turn off the call lamp 2d1, or the jackpot bill at the time of the previous jackpot is still inserted. For example, when a signal that triggers the work is input, the work may not occur, and the signal that triggers the work may occur while waiting for reception of information from the mobile terminal device 5. When a predetermined time has elapsed from the reception (for example, about 3 minutes or the like, the time measured in the above-described time measurement process can be used), the work monitoring process is terminated (step S4).
[0096]
When the call identification lamp 2d1 is turned on when the unique identification information and the work type information are received from the portable terminal device 5, the call lamp 2d1 is turned off (step S5). That is, the control means (control device 21) of the gaming equipment device (calling device 2) displays display means (calling lamp 2d1) that is lit based on the work request by the player from the portable terminal device 5. Turns off when information is received.
Next, it is determined whether or not the work is finished (step S6). That is, the control device 21 of the calling device 2 is in a state of waiting for a signal indicating the response to the work (a signal that is a time when the work time is determined). Even if a signal indicating the response to the work is received as in the case of carrying the box, the work may not be completed depending on the type of work. Accordingly, in step S6, it may be determined not to completely end the work but to respond to the work, and it is determined whether or not the work response time is to be determined.
For example, in the case of a bill insertion work, the signal indicating the correspondence to the work is such that the employee goes to the gaming machine 100 in which the jackpot lamp 2d2 is lit and presses the work button 51 of the bill insertion of the portable terminal device 5, Since the work of inserting the jackpot into the upper part of the gaming machine 100 of the island facility is performed, the signal indicating the work completion is a signal of work information from the mobile terminal device 5. Other types of work will be described later when the transmission timing of work-related information is described.
When it is determined that the work has been completed (corresponding to the work is performed), the work corresponding time (work time) is determined, and the determined work corresponding time is stored in the RAM 24 (step S7). .
Further, the unique identification information transmitted from the mobile terminal device 5 is stored in the RAM 24 (step S8), and the work type information transmitted from the mobile terminal device 5 is stored in the RAM 24 (step S9).
[0097]
Next, determination processing of work conditions (transmission conditions) corresponding to each work type information is performed (step S10). That is, the control device 21 of the calling device 2 as the game status monitoring means for monitoring the game status of the gaming machine that is the work of the employee works from the portable terminal device 5 based on the monitoring result of the game status monitoring means. It functions as a determination means for performing processing for determining the validity of the received work information. Note that the gaming situation at this time includes lighting of the calling lamp 2d1 by the operation of the calling operation unit 2a of the calling device 2. In addition, a condition for determining validity is a transmission condition.
[0098]
In the present embodiment, the work type information received from the portable terminal device 5, the external signal from the external output unit 101 of the gaming machine 100 and the detection unit 102 of the island facility, and the call operation unit 2a of the call device 2 are called. By operating the button 2a1, the game type information based on the call signal input to the control device 21 is compared, and the work type in the work type information corresponds to the game situation when the work type information is input. Whether the work information is correct. That is, it is determined whether or not the game status information corresponds to the type of work, and whether or not a specific signal from the gaming machine 100 or the like indicating the game information is input is a determination condition.
In addition, only for work information (work type information) that the control device 21 of the calling device 2 serving as a judgment means judges to be valid, work related information (unique identification information, work type information, response time based on this work information). Information etc.) is transmitted to the management device 4 as will be described later. That is, the above-described validity determination condition is a transmission condition indicating whether or not work-related information corresponding to work information input from the mobile terminal device 5 is transmitted to the management device 4.
[0099]
The transmission conditions are set for each work type, and the transmission conditions corresponding to each work type are as follows as shown in FIG.
That is, in the case of a pachinko gaming machine bill insertion work (a jackpot) shown in FIG. 5A, since the transmission condition is a jackpot, a jackpot signal is received from the gaming machine 100 (a jackpot is being generated). The first transmission condition is the jackpot signal input. In addition, since the player has played a game before the jackpot insertion, the game ball is being fired at a predetermined interval (in operation) or due to the occurrence of the jackpot Even if the game ball is temporarily stopped, it is in a state where the game ball has been fired until a short time ago. The collected ball signal is periodically transmitted at a short interval from the collected ball detection sensor of the detection unit 102 of the island facility, and the second transmission condition is the collected ball signal. Will be in a state within a predetermined time set in advance.
[0100]
In the case of the ball stop work, the player who notices the ball stop operates the call button 2a1 (call operation unit 2a) of the call device 2 to turn on the call lamp 2d1, and calls the employee. The first condition is the input (ON) of a call signal from the call operation unit 2a. Also, in the case of a ball stop work, even if the player temporarily stops the game ball firing due to the ball stop, the game ball should have been fired before that, so the second transmission condition is The state is within a predetermined time set in advance after the collection ball signal is input.
Also, in the case of a ball stop operation, the ball stopped in the game area is removed by opening the glass frame, so the third transmission condition is the glass frame open signal from the glass frame open detection sensor. Input (ON).
[0101]
In the case of replenishment check work, a player who notices that a game ball cannot be fired due to a lack of game ball replenishment operates the call button 2a1 (call operation unit 2a) of the call device 2 to turn on the call lamp 2d1. Since the employee is called, the first transmission condition is the input (ON) of the call signal from the call operation unit 2a. In the case of replenishment check work, the replenishment detection sensor of the gaming machine 100 detects that the remaining amount of game balls in the storage tank is less than a predetermined amount and outputs a replenishment signal, but the island facility side Since the game ball is not replenished, the replenishment signal remains output, so the second transmission condition is the replenishment signal input (ON).
[0102]
In the case of box lowering work, it is likely that the ball box on the box mounting shelf of the island facility will be full and the game ball can not be put in by pulling the jackpot without much interval from the previous jackpot with the pachinko machine Therefore, it is within a predetermined time from the input of the jackpot signal and the input of the collected ball signal, basically, as in the case of the jackpot of the jackpot. In the case of box lowering, even if it is a big hit, if the remaining amount of game balls in the ball box on the box mounting shelf is small, the operation is not performed.
[0103]
In the case of boxing work, when the player stops the game on the gaming machine 100, the call button 2a1 (call operation unit 2a) of the call device 2 is operated to turn on the call lamp 2d1. Since the employee is called, the first transmission condition is the input (ON) of the call signal from the call operation unit 2a. In addition, since the player has played the game with the gaming machine until the game ball is accumulated to some extent in at least one ball box, the second transmission condition is set in advance after the collected ball signal is input. It will be in a state within a predetermined time.
[0104]
In the case of other work, on the assumption that an employee is called by a player who is playing with a gaming machine, the transmission conditions are input (ON) of a call signal from the call operation unit 2a, and collection. A state within a predetermined time set in advance after the input of the spherical signal is obtained.
In addition, since the work in the pachislot machine is basically performed by an employee being called, the above call signal is input (ON) in the replenishment work, the box carrying work, and the pushing work. In addition, there are no medals in the hopper, and it is not possible to pay out medals. Since it is basically operable, the second transmission condition is that a medal insertion signal indicating operation in the pachislot machine is input within a predetermined time. In the replenishment work, a payout is performed before an error occurs, and a game that wins a prize just before the pachislot machine becomes an error and cannot be operated. A predetermined time from the input may be set as the transmission condition.
[0105]
In addition, in the replenishment work, if there is a medal supply and recovery facility in the island facility, the game proceeds with the medal not being replenished due to a malfunction of the medal replenishment device, and the pachislot machine can pay out medals. Therefore, when the employee is called, the medal is not replenished, and the replenishment signal is input from the replenishment detection sensor of the island facility. Therefore, in a pachislot machine in which medals are automatically replenished from the island facility, it is preferable that the transmission condition at the time of replenishment work includes ON of a replenishment signal when a replenishment signal is provided.
[0106]
Next, based on the determination in the determination process described above, if the transmission condition is not satisfied, the work monitoring process is terminated, and if the transmission condition is satisfied, the process for transmitting work-related information is performed. Proceed (step S11).
That is, it is determined whether or not the transmission timing for transmitting work-related information has been reached (step S12). In the work monitoring process, a time process of the work response time is performed in step S2. After receiving the signal that triggers the above-described work occurrence, the work starts, that is, the game in which the work has occurred. When the employee arrives at the machine, grasps the work content, operates the mobile terminal device 5 to transmit work information (work type information), and the call device 2 receives this information, or the work is finished That is, when information indicating the end of work is input from the external output unit 101 of the gaming machine 100 or the detection unit 102 of the island facility, the work corresponding time measurement is finished in the above-described steps S6 and S7. The response time is fixed.
[0107]
Since the work response time is included in the work related information, the work related information needs to be transmitted from the calling device 2 to the management device 4 after the work response time is determined. Therefore, the transmission timing is after the time when the signal indicating the start or the end of the work is input and the corresponding time of the work is determined.
Here, with reference to FIGS. 5A and 5B, work response time (work time) and work-related information transmission timing due to the end of each work will be described. Basically, as described above, the work related to the gaming machine 100 itself is determined based on the signal from the external output unit 101 of the gaming machine 100 or the detection unit 102 of the island equipment, and the signal Send work-related information after receiving.
In pachinko machine work, in the ball stop work, the work ends when the glass frame is closed after the glass frame is opened to stop the ball stop, so the time when the glass frame release signal is switched from ON to OFF depends on the end of the work. The work response time is determined, and the transmission time is thereafter.
[0108]
Further, in the replenishment check work, when the malfunction of the device for supplying game balls is resolved, the game balls are supplied to the storage tank of the gaming machine 100, and it is supplied that a predetermined amount or more of the game balls are stored in the storage tank. The time when the detection sensor detects and the supply signal from the supply detection sensor switches from ON to OFF is the fixed time of the work response time due to the end of the work, and the subsequent time is the transmission timing.
[0109]
In addition, in the case of the bill insertion work, the box lowering work, and the box carrying work, there is no work on the gaming machine 100 itself. Therefore, when the work information is received from the mobile terminal device 5, the work response time is determined when the work starts. The transmission timing is thereafter.
In the case of other work, the work may or may not be for the pachinko game machine itself, but the work cannot be specified, so the time when the work information is received from the mobile terminal device 5 is the work response time due to the work start. Is determined, and after that is the transmission timing.
[0110]
In the pachislot machine, in the case of replenishment work, when medals are manually replenished, the time when work information is received from the mobile terminal device 5 is the fixed time for the work response time due to the start of work. The transmission timing is thereafter. In addition, when medals are automatically replenished, replenishment is checked, and when the malfunction of the device for replenishing medals is resolved, medals are replenished to the hopper, and the replenishment detection sensor is It is detected that a medal has been replenished, and the replenishment signal is switched from ON to OFF. The time when the signal is switched is the fixed time of the work response time, and the subsequent time is the transmission timing.
When a front frame open detection sensor that detects the open state of the front frame is provided, the work is completed when the front frame is closed and the front frame open signal is switched from ON to OFF after the replenishment operation is completed. The response time is determined, and the subsequent timing is the transmission timing.
[0111]
In the case of carrying a box, since it is not work for the pachislot machine itself, the time when the work information is received from the mobile terminal device 5 is the fixed time for the work corresponding to the work start, and the time after that is the transmission timing. .
Further, in the pushing work, the employee is asked to change to the player and pushes to make a bonus winning in the variable display game. Therefore, when the BB signal or the RB signal is input, the work corresponding time Is determined, and after that is the transmission timing.
Other work in the pachislot machine is the same as in the case of the pachinko game machine, because the work cannot be specified, the time when the work information is received from the mobile terminal device 5 is the fixed time of the work corresponding to the work start, and thereafter Is the transmission timing.
Note that the transmission timing is basically after the reception of a signal that determines the response time of the above-described work, but needless to say, the processing after steps S8 to S11 needs to be completed and becomes the transmission timing. By the time, the work information from the portable terminal device 5 has been received (the work information may not be the fixed time of the work response time), and it is necessary to determine whether or not this work information is appropriate. .
[0112]
And it will be in a standby state until it becomes the transmission timing of work related information, and when it becomes a transmission timing, work type information, the specific identification information of the portable terminal device 5, and the response | compatibility time of the confirmed work as work related information. The work corresponding time information, which is identifiable information, and the unique identification information of the gaming machine 100 that can identify the gaming machine 100 to which the calling device 2 corresponds are transmitted (step S13), and the work monitoring process ends. It should be noted that during the period from the reception of the signal that triggers the operation to the transmission timing of the work-related information, one call device 2 receives the work information from the mobile terminal device 5 multiple times instead of once. However, the work related information is transmitted only once when the transmission timing is reached.
[0113]
On the other hand, the management device 4 performs work management processing for receiving work-related information from the calling device 2 (game equipment device).
In the work management process, as shown in the flowchart of FIG. 7, it is determined whether or not work-related information including work information has been received (step S14), that is, waiting for work-related information to be received. When the work-related information is received in the state, the unique identification information of the mobile terminal device 5, the work type information, the work corresponding time information, and the unique identification information of the gaming machine 100 included in the work-related information are stored in the storage device 4 a. (Step S15).
[0114]
For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the management device 4 receives the work-related information for each machine number (eg, 333 series) based on the unique identification information of the gaming machine 100, that is, for each gaming machine 100, The type of work based on the type information (work name), the ID number of the mobile terminal device based on the unique identification information of the mobile terminal device 5 possessed by the employee corresponding to the work, and the corresponding time information of the work included in the work related information Data such as the corresponding time of work up to the work based on it is serialized in the order of reception and stored as work related data. That is, the management device has a function as work-related data management means for collecting and managing work-related data related to the work status of employees based on work-related information from the gaming equipment device.
[0115]
Further, the management device as the work-related data management means functions as an evaluation data creation means for creating evaluation data based on the number of work of each employee who has each mobile terminal device 5 from the work-related data.
For example, as shown in FIG. 9, based on the work-related data stored as described above, each employee corresponds to a corresponding period (predetermined period, for example, the portable terminal apparatus ID number). The number of operations for each operation type (operation name) within one day, one week, one month, etc.) is obtained. This can be obtained by counting the number of times each work type information is received. In addition, as described above, work points are assigned to each work type as evaluation criteria, and thus the work frequency is multiplied by the work points. The work points used in the ROM 42 of the management device 4 or the storage device 4a are used corresponding to the work type.
[0116]
In addition, for the work response time, for example, the total time within the corresponding period is obtained for each work type, and this is divided by the number of work times for each work type to obtain the average response time for each work type. . Then, the average corresponding time for each work type is ranked, for example, into a plurality of ranks, and corresponding time points are assigned as evaluation criteria for each rank. For example, the work response time (average) is ranked into 6 levels such as 0 to 5 seconds, 6 to 10 seconds, 11 to 15 seconds, 16 to 20 seconds, 21 to 30 seconds, 31 seconds or more. 100 points for 5 seconds, 70 points for 6 to 10 seconds, 50 points for 11 to 15 seconds, 30 points for 16 to 20 seconds, 20 points for 21 to 30 seconds, 10 points for more than 31 seconds, etc. Assign points. Then, for example, if the average work response time is 16 seconds, the rank corresponding to the average work response time is obtained, such as 30 points, and points assigned to the corresponding rank are given. In addition, since a difference arises in the required response time depending on the work content, it is preferable that the ranking and points of each rank are set corresponding to the work content for each work type.
[0117]
For example, as shown in FIG. 9, for an employee who has a portable terminal device with ID number 01, for example, the work count of the bill holder is 320, and the work points of the bill holder are shown in FIG. Thus, since the work point based on the number of work is 320 points obtained by multiplying 320 by 1, and the average corresponding time is 16 seconds, the point corresponding to the work corresponding time is 30 points. Then, 320 points based on the number of operations and points 30 corresponding to the corresponding time of operations are totaled, and the point of the bill insertion operation is set to 350. Thereafter, points are similarly obtained for other work types, and points corresponding to all work types are summed to obtain a total point.
[0118]
Similarly, total points are obtained for employees who have other mobile terminal devices, and the total points of employees who process each mobile terminal device are evaluated.
That is, the management device 4 as the evaluation data creation means assigns a work point for each work type, and multiplies the work point by the work number to obtain a point for each work type. The type of is reflected in the evaluation. In addition, as described above, by assigning points to work response times, evaluation data reflecting employee work response times is created.
[0119]
Here, in the above example, the work point corresponds to each work type. For example, as shown in FIG. 10, the work point indicates the operating status of the gaming machine 100 in the game store. The work points may be automatically changed according to the number of players who play the game. As the number of players in the amusement store increases (the more gaming machines that are in operation), the load on the employee increases. Thus, depending on the operating status of the gaming machines in the amusement store, By changing the work point, it is possible to perform evaluations commensurate with the employee's load. For example, in the chart shown in FIG. 10, when there are 0 to 100 players in the game store, the points for each work type are the points shown in FIG. 5 and 101 to 200 players in the game store. In this case, 0.5 points are added to the original points (points in the case of 0 to 100 people) for each type of work, and 1 point is added to the original points in the case of 201 people or more. It has become.
[0120]
In addition, as a method of obtaining the operating status of the gaming machine in the gaming store, for example, a sensor for measuring the number of customers leaving the store is provided at the entrance, and the number of players in the gaming store that indirectly indicates the operating status of the gaming machine is obtained. Alternatively, the above-described recovered ball signal and medal insertion signal of the gaming machine 100 may be used to indicate the operation of the gaming machine 100, and a predetermined time after the recovered ball signal or medal insertion signal is input to each gaming machine 100. It is good also as what calculates | requires the ratio of the game machine 100 corresponding to all the game machines 100 in operation | use, and the number of the game machines 100 which are operating.
[0121]
According to the employee management system as described above, work-related data is collected and managed based on work information from the portable terminal device carried by the employee, so that the work status of the employee can be managed accurately and reliably. it can.
In particular, the work of a game store is mainly performed by a gaming machine. Therefore, an employee can play a game by receiving information from a portable terminal device with a game equipment device arranged in the vicinity thereof. The work information can be transmitted easily and reliably corresponding to the execution of the work on the machine.
[0122]
In addition, since the number of operations based on the number of times work information is received from the mobile terminal device 5 is used when creating employee evaluation data, it is possible to evaluate the work of a legitimate employee according to the number of operations. it can.
In addition, the type of work performed by the employee can be reliably grasped by the management device from the work type information transmitted from the mobile terminal device 5, and each employee is evaluated according to the grasped type of work. Equal assessment of the work of each employee can be made.
[0123]
Further, by using the work response time for the evaluation of the employee, it is possible to perform a valid employee work evaluation according to the work response speed.
Also, the work load of employees changes according to the operating status of the gaming machine, but work that changes depending on the operating status of the gaming machine by changing the work point according to the operating status of the gaming machine as described above. Evaluation data according to the burden can be created.
Further, based on the game situation information transmitted from the gaming machine 100 or the island facility as described above, it is determined whether or not the work type information received from the mobile terminal device 5 corresponds to the game situation at the time of reception. By doing so, it is possible to prevent employees from sending unauthorized work information using the mobile terminal device.
[0124]
In addition, since the gaming equipment device that receives the work information from the mobile terminal device and transmits the work-related information to the management device 4 is a part of the calling device 2 as described above, in addition to the function for transmitting and receiving information about the work, Since a function for calling an attendant to request a work is provided, various functions related to the work can be concentrated in the vicinity of the gaming machine and efficiently realized.
In addition, for example, an employee who goes to the gaming machine 100 by turning on the call lamp 2d1 of the gaming equipment apparatus as the call device 2 simply transmits information corresponding to the execution of the work, and the call lamp 2d1 that has been turned on. Therefore, it is possible to save the trouble of turning off the call lamp 2d1 by separately operating the call operation means (call operation unit 2a).
[0125]
The employee management system of the present invention is not limited to the above-described example. For example, in addition to the work buttons 51... 52. Fraudulent acts when a rogue player is discovered that sends a message to the machine to cause a malfunction of the gaming machine or illegally opens an attacker (such as a special variable prize-winning device) by inserting a piano wire into the gaming machine By operating the button, it is possible to transmit fraud information indicating that fraud has been found from the mobile terminal device 5.
Then, the calling device 2 (game equipment device) that has received the fraud information from the mobile terminal device transmits the fraud information to the management device 4, and the management device 4 recognizes that the fraud has been performed, Notify the operator of the management device 4. In this way, it is possible to quickly and confidentially inform the management device 4 and the operator of the management device 4 that an illegal act has been found.
[0126]
In the case of such a configuration, it is preferable that the mobile terminal device 5 may transmit fraud information to any gaming equipment device (calling device 2). That is, if an attempt is made to transmit fraud information to a gaming equipment device provided in the vicinity of the gaming machine 100 where the fraud is being performed, there is a possibility that the person who has performed the fraud will be noticed. In addition, since the unique identification information of the portable terminal device 5 can be sent together with the fraud information, it is possible to identify the employee who sent the fraud information, and the gaming machine in which the fraud has been performed by this employee It is possible to obtain information on a player who has committed or cheating.
On the other hand, in the gaming equipment device that has received the fraudulent information, it is assumed that the transmission conditions for the fraudulent information are not set, and when the fraud information is received, the fraudulent information is transmitted to the management device 4 with the highest priority. It is preferable.
[0127]
In addition, for example, a ten-key or the like is provided on the mobile terminal device 5 so that the gaming machine on which the fraudulent act is performed can be identified on the management device 4 side. Such information may be input and transmitted.
Moreover, you may make it give the high evaluation point corresponding to the employee who discovered fraud and discovered the fraud by operating the fraudulent button of the portable terminal device 5. In other words, the transmission of fraud information may be subject to evaluation by the evaluation data creation means, and a single fraud information transmission to an employee who possesses the mobile terminal device that has transmitted the fraud information. A point higher than that of other work may be given.
[0128]
In the above example, the work point (evaluation standard) for each work type may be changed according to the operating status of the gaming machine of the amusement store. However, the number of employees working at the amusement store The evaluation criteria may be changed accordingly.
For example, at an amusement store, the number of employees may change depending on the time of day or the day (day of the week, the end of the month, etc.), and the work load of employees will change according to the number, but equality according to the change Can be evaluated.
[0129]
That is, in the employee management system of the present invention, the management device 4 includes employee number monitoring means for monitoring the number of employees in the amusement shop, and the management device 4 as the evaluation data creating means is configured to monitor the number of employees. It is good also as a structure which changes evaluation criteria according to the monitoring result by a means. In addition, as the number of employees monitoring means, for example, using a magnetic card type or bar code type time recorder (information on which the employee can be identified by magnetism or bar code is recorded on the time card) A device capable of outputting time data such as leaving, going out, or returning to work may be connected to the management device 4.
In addition, a card reader or the like is connected to the management device 4 so that a card on which information that can identify the employee is recorded is read by the card reader when the employee leaves or leaves the office, and this is also used as an employee number monitoring means. good.
Further, the evaluation standard may be changed according to the number of employees (that is, the number of operating gaming machines per employee) with respect to the operating status of all gaming machines in the gaming store.
[0130]
In the above example, the gaming equipment device that receives information from the mobile terminal device and transmits work-related information to the management device based on the information is provided integrally with the calling device 2. It is good also as a structure which provides a game equipment apparatus separately from this call apparatus.
[0131]
In addition, it should be considered that the embodiments disclosed herein are illustrative and non-restrictive in every respect. The scope of the present invention is defined by the terms of the claims, rather than the description above, and is intended to include any modifications within the scope and meaning equivalent to the terms of the claims.
