[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention uses a prize payout mechanism for paying out a prize at a chance in a game device, and the prize payout mechanism. For example, a prize or medal placed at a predetermined position on a pusher table mechanism by a player's operation is pushed. The present invention relates to an amusement device configured to be obtained by being dropped by operating a table.
[0002]
[Prior art]
As an example of this type of game apparatus, there is one that belongs to a class called a so-called prize acquisition game machine as disclosed in Patent Document 1, for example. The game apparatus disclosed in this document includes a pusher table mechanism having a fixed table and a pusher table that reciprocates in the front-rear direction. In such a prize acquisition game machine, the player operates a scooping mechanism such as a crane by a button operation to scoop out a desired prize out of many prizes placed on the rotary table, and use the scoop as described above. Place on pusher table mechanism. The prize placed on the pusher table moves to the fixed table below by the retraction of the pusher table, and is pushed forward by the forward movement of the pusher table to advance on the fixed table. Subsequently, when the prize placed on the pusher table is pushed forward by the retraction of the pusher table and the subsequent forward movement, and the advancement is made on the fixed table, the prize previously advanced on the fixed table is pushed later. It is pushed further in the forward direction by the prize. As these operations are repeated, the prize placed on the pusher table mechanism is pushed forward one after another and the prize placed first is pushed forward, and eventually the prize at the head falls from the edge of the fixed table. The prize is paid out to a payout opening arranged on the outer wall of the game machine casing, and the player can obtain the prize. It is necessary to insert a predetermined amount of coins to operate the scooping mechanism.

[0004]
The prize acquisition game machine as described above can only control at what timing the prize on the rotary table is picked up by the scooping mechanism, and at what timing the scooped prize is put on the pusher table mechanism. Although there is an aspect that the movement of the prize due to the movement of the table mechanism cannot be accurately predicted, there is an interest that the player can increase the chance of acquiring the desired prize by his skill. However, as can be seen from the above explanation, even if the scooping mechanism is operated a plurality of times and the prize on the rotary table is placed on the pusher table mechanism, the number of prizes that can be obtained cannot be expected to be so large. .
[0005]
Therefore, the prize acquisition game machine disclosed in Patent Document 1 gives a chance to acquire a large number of high-grade or expensive prizes that are not placed on the rotary table at once, and makes the game more interesting. A device to raise is made.
[0006]
That is, an upper open premium storage container that can be swung by an external force is disposed above the pusher table mechanism, and a rope body having one end connected to an appropriate portion of the premium storage container is placed on a fixed table. It is connected to the weight member.
[0007]
In the same manner as described above, the player repeats the operation of scooping up the prize on the rotary table by the scooping mechanism and placing it on the pusher table mechanism. As described above, it is expected that the prize pushed earlier is further advanced on the fixed table by the prize pushed later, and the prize pushes the weight member. If successful, the weight member can be dropped from the edge of the fixed table while repeating the above operation. When the weight member falls, the cable body is thereby pulled strongly downward, the prize storage container can be tilted, and all the prizes stored in the prize storage container can be dropped at once. The prizes that fall all at once are paid out to the player from the payout opening.
[0008]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the above configuration, it is only possible to arrange a prize storage container that can be tilted by the weight of the weight member. That is, the weight of the prize storage container, or the number or weight of the prizes to be accommodated in the prize storage container must be limited, and a prize that is large in shape or heavy in weight. It is difficult to adopt. On the other hand, by increasing the weight of the weight member, even if the prize storage container itself can be enlarged, or a prize that is large in shape or heavy in weight can be accommodated, the weight member is too heavy. In the first place, there is almost no chance of dropping the weight member.
[0009]
The invention of the present application has been conceived under the circumstances described above, and a prize payout mechanism capable of dramatically increasing the degree of freedom regarding the size, quantity, or weight of prizes to be paid out at a chance, and It is an object of the present invention to provide a game device using this.
[0010]
DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
In order to solve the above problems, the present invention takes the following technical means.
[0011]
The prize payout mechanism provided by the first aspect of the present invention is different from the above-mentioned support shaft with respect to the prize holding container supported so as to be swingable around a support shaft extending in the lateral direction. A tension member whose upper end is connected to be swingable about an axis. When the tension member is swung and the tension state by the tension member is released, the prize holding container is swung around the support shaft by gravity, so that the prize in the prize holding container is paid out. Is configured to It is characterized by that.
[0012]
In a preferred embodiment, the tension member has a rod shape.
[0013]
In a preferred embodiment, there is further provided resistance imparting means capable of changing the rocking resistance of the tension member with respect to the prize holding container.
[0014]
In a preferred embodiment, the resistance applying means further includes a plate-like member fixed to the upper end of the tension member so as to be orthogonal to the axis, and the plate-like member is pinched, released, or pinched. And a braking mechanism that can change the configuration.
[0015]
In a preferred embodiment, the prize holding container has a bucket shape that opens upward and one side.
[0016]
The game apparatus provided by the second aspect of the present invention includes a fixed table, and the prize payout mechanism according to the first aspect is such that the tension member is in a substantially vertical state and its lower end is on the fixed table. The premium holding container is installed and configured to be in a substantially horizontal state when contacting.
[0017]
In a preferred embodiment, when the lower end of the tension member is displaced by a predetermined direction on the fixed table by being pushed by an object moving on the fixed table, the tension member swings about the axis. As a result, the prize holding container is inclined with the support shaft as a center, and the prize holding container is further inclined when the tension member is removed from the edge of the fixed table, and the prize holding container is held by the prize holding container. Is configured to be paid out at once.
[0018]
In a preferred embodiment, a pusher table that repeats retraction and advancement is stacked on the fixed table to constitute a pusher table mechanism.
[0019]
In a preferred embodiment, a prize or medal is placed on the pusher table mechanism by a player's operation, and the prize or medal is placed on the tension member by the operation of the pusher table mechanism. The lower end can be pushed in a predetermined direction.
[0020]
In a preferred embodiment, a prize table in which a large number of prizes or medals are placed is disposed below the pusher table mechanism, and prizes or medals on the prize table are scooped by the operation of the player. A scooping mechanism is provided.
[0021]
In a preferred embodiment, the premium table is a donut-shaped rotary table in plan view, and the pusher table mechanism is arranged so as to straddle the rotary table in the radial direction.
[0022]
In the configuration described above, the prize holding container holds, for example, a substantially horizontal state by the extension member extending from below extending on the fixed table. Therefore, even if the prize holding container or the prizes held in the prize holding container is a large amount and has a weight, the prize can be held without any problem. The tension member receives a part of the weight of the prize holding container or the prize held in the prize holding container, and accordingly, a constant frictional force is generated between the tension member and the fixed table. However, according to recent theories, it is known that such a frictional force depends not only on the load and the coefficient of friction but also on the areas in frictional contact with each other. In the case of the present invention, the tension member can be configured as a rod-like member, and the contact area with the fixed table can be remarkably reduced by further sharpening the tip, thereby reducing the frictional force. In addition, the tension member does not bear all the weight of the prize holding container and the prizes held by the prize holding container, but most of it is borne by the frame of the game apparatus via a support shaft that supports the prize holding container so as to be able to swing. Can be made. For this reason, the fact that the weight of the prize holding container is large does not significantly increase the frictional force between the tension member and the fixed table.
[0023]
When the game device is configured with the fixed table as a part of the pusher table mechanism, the prizes repeatedly placed on the pusher table mechanism by the operation of the player are advanced on the fixed table one after another by the operation of the pusher table. The end of the tension member is pushed and displaced so as to resist the frictional force. Eventually, when the end portion of the tension member falls off the edge of the fixed table, the prize holding container loses its support and swings all at once, and all prizes held on it are paid out.
[0024]
As a result, in this type of game machine, chance prizes can be held in the prize holding container regardless of the size, quantity, or weight, and the entertainment as a prize acquisition game can be remarkably enhanced. .
[0025]
And, as described above, by providing resistance imparting means that can change the swing resistance of the tension member, the prize payout rate can be easily set when changing the number or value of chance prizes. Will be able to change.
[0026]
Other features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the detailed description given below with reference to the drawings.
[0027]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the drawings.
[0028]
FIG. 1 is an overall external view of an embodiment of a game apparatus 1 according to the present invention. The game apparatus 1 is configured as a so-called prize acquisition game machine. Around the casing 10 having a predetermined height, four player operation units 20 are arranged at equal intervals. Each player operation unit 20 is provided with a coin insertion slot 21 and operation buttons 22 and 23 for operating a scooping mechanism 40 described later, and a payout prize outlet 24 is opened downward. Yes.
[0029]
A game space S surrounded by a dome-shaped transparent showcase 25 that can be appropriately opened and closed is provided on the upper surface of the housing 10. The game space S has a circular shape in plan view, and a central mechanism that supports a scooping mechanism 40 or a chance prize payout mechanism 50 to be described later and is decorated as desired. Part 30 is arranged. As shown in FIG. 1, a donut-shaped slope wall 31 in plan view that is inclined so as to become lower toward the center of the game space S is provided at the peripheral portion of the game space S. The slope wall 31 is provided with a prize drop opening 32 that is opened by coin insertion in correspondence with the position of each player operation unit 20. The prize drop port 32 communicates with the payout prize outlet 24 described above.
[0030]
A prize table 33 in a plan view donut shape is installed so as to be adjacent to the inside of the slope wall 31 in the plan view donut shape and adjacent to the outer periphery of the central mechanism portion 30. While the game machine is operating, it always rotates counterclockwise. The giveaway table 33 has a gentle concave shape in cross section, for example, and a large number of giveaways (not shown) placed on the giveaway table 33 is carelessly detached by receiving an external force from a scooping mechanism 40 described later, for example. There is no such thing. Even if the prize jumps out of the prize table 33, it is returned to the prize table 33 due to the inclination of the slope wall 31. As the prize placed on the prize table 33, a relatively small prize that can be scooped by a scooping mechanism 40, which will be described later, such as a confectionery or a small doll, is adopted, and a large number of the prizes are placed.
[0031]
The game space S is also provided with a pusher table mechanism 60 that extends from the side wall of the central mechanism section 30 over the premium table 33 toward the player operation sections 20. The pusher table mechanism 60 has a fixed table 61 having a predetermined width extending in the horizontal direction and a reciprocating movement in the extending direction of the fixed table 61 so as to overlap the fixed table 61. And a pusher table 62 having substantially the same width. The front end of the fixed table 61 is extended above the premium drop opening 32 described above, and the premium P (FIG. 3) dropped from the front end of the fixed table 61 is paid out through the premium drop opening 32 and taken out. The mouth 24 can be reached. In reality, the pusher tables 62 located on opposite sides of the central mechanism 30 are integrally connected inside the central mechanism 30 and reciprocate by a reciprocating drive mechanism (not shown). The material of the fixed table 61 and the pusher table 62 is not limited, but the fixed table 61 is subjected to a smooth surface treatment so that the coefficient of friction with the tension member 54 of the chance prize payout mechanism 50 described later is a predetermined value or less. It is desirable to keep it.
[0032]
In the game space S, the above-described pusher table mechanism is further picked up by scooping out a desired prize among the prizes that move so as to flow by the rotation on the prize table 33 so as to be adjacent to the respective pusher table mechanisms 60. A scooping mechanism 40 that can be placed on 60 is provided. The prize scooping mechanism 40 extends from a slit 41 provided on the side wall of the central mechanism 30 on the downstream side of the prize table 33 with respect to the pusher table mechanism 60, and can move along the slit 41. The shaft 42 includes a shaft 42 that rotates in a predetermined manner and a scooping member 43 attached to the shaft 42. The slit 41 includes a vertical extending portion 41 a and a horizontal extending portion 41 b that extends from the upper portion to the upper side of the pusher table mechanism 60. In this embodiment, the scooping member 43 is a plate-like member bent into a substantially L-shaped cross section. As shown in FIG. 1, the shaft 42 is normally positioned at the upper end of the vertically extending portion 41 a of the slit 41, and the skimming member 43 assumes a rotational posture before the skimming operation.
[0033]
The player measures the scooping operation in the player operation unit 20 in anticipation of the timing when the desired prize moves on the prize table 33. Operation for Press the button 22. Then, the scooping member 43 automatically moves downward along the slit 41, and the shaft 42 pivots a predetermined angle in the clockwise direction to perform a scooping operation, and the pusher is pushed along the slit 41 as it is. It moves to above the table mechanism 60. The player also waits for the timing of the movement of the pusher table 62 and drops the prize. Operation for Press the button 23. As a result, the scooped prize is dropped onto the pusher table 62 or the fixed table 61 by the shaft 42 and the scooping member 43 rotating in the counterclockwise direction. Thereafter, the scooping member 43 automatically returns to the normal position shown in FIG.
[0034]
If the timing of dropping from the scooping member 43 is when the pusher table 62 is retracted, the prize falls on the fixed table 61. The prize placed on the fixed table 61 is pushed forward by the pusher table 62 and advanced. If the timing of dropping from the scooping member 43 is when the pusher table 62 moves forward, the prize will drop onto the pusher table 62. The prize placed on the pusher table 62 is transferred onto the fixed table 61 by the retraction of the pusher table 62 and is pushed forward by the subsequent forward movement of the pusher table 62 and is also advanced on the fixed table 61.
[0035]
While the operation of the scooping mechanism 40 as described above is repeated, the prizes placed on the pusher table mechanism 60 are pushed forward in the forward direction one after another, and the prizes are eventually fixed on the fixed table. It drops from the tip of 61 to the prize drop opening 32. In this way, the player can acquire the prize. Actually, the player's action differs depending on where the prize desired by the player is. For example, when the prize desired by the player is already near the tip of the fixed table 61, the prize can be pushed later by the prize placed on the pusher table mechanism 60. It may be placed on the pusher table mechanism 60. When the prize desired by the player is only on the prize table 33, the prize must be started by placing the prize on the pusher table mechanism 60 as described above.
[0036]
The above is an explanation of an example of the basic configuration and operation of a so-called prize acquisition game machine, and the present invention is characterized by a prize payout mechanism 50 at a suitable opportunity when used in this type of prize acquisition game machine. In the following, an example of the prize payout mechanism 50 will be described in relation to the prize acquisition game machine described above, but the prize acquisition game machine itself is not limited to the above-described configuration.
[0037]
In the game space S, a large amount of prizes are paid out at a stretch above each pusher table mechanism 60, or are not placed on the prize table 33 and cannot be scooped by the scooping mechanism 40, or A prize payout mechanism 50 is provided that can pay out a heavy prize or an expensive prize.
[0038]
As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the premium payout mechanism 50 is supported at both ends by a pair of stays 51 extending from the side wall of the central mechanism portion 30 and extends in the width direction of the pusher table mechanism 60. A prize holding container 53 that can swing about a shaft 52, and a tension member 54 that is pivotably connected to the prize holding container 53 and extends downward.
[0039]
In this embodiment, the gift holding container 53 has a bucket shape having a bottom view 53a, a rear face 53b, and left and right side faces 53c and having a rectangular shape in plan view that opens upward and forward. Preferably, the prize holding container 53 is detachable from a frame member (not shown) supported so as to be swingable around the support shaft 52. If it does in this way, according to the size and quantity of prize B which should be held, a bucket can be exchanged suitably. The support shaft 52 is disposed on the rear side of the center of gravity of the prize holding container 53 in a state where the prize B is held. Therefore, the prize holding container 53 tilts so that the front is inclined downward due to gravity when the tension by the tension member 54 described later is released.
[0040]
In this embodiment, the tension member 54 is composed of a rod-like member, and is connected to the prize holding container 53 so as to be swingable around a shaft 55 that is biased forward of the support shaft 52. Has been. The position of the shaft 55 is set so that the lower end of the tension member 54 in the vertical state can come into contact with the surface of the fixed table 61. The length of the tension member 54 is set so that the prize holding container 53 can take a substantially horizontal posture in the vertical state. The lower end portion of the tension member 54 is made of a material or a shape that generates a desired frictional force with respect to the fixed table 61. In this embodiment, a metal member having a dome shape is attached to the lower end portion of the tension member 54. The shaft 55 is also parallel to the support shaft 52, so that the tension member 54 can swing in the front-rear direction of the fixed table 61.
[0041]
In this embodiment, a resistance applying means 70 capable of changing the swing resistance of the tension member 54 with respect to the prize holding container 53 is also provided. In this embodiment, while providing the disk portion 71 orthogonal to the axis at the upper end of the tension member 54, it is possible to select a state in which the disk portion 71 is clamped and a state in which the clamping pressure is released, Furthermore, a braking mechanism 72 that can adjust the clamping pressure is attached to the prize holding container 53. 2 and 5, the brake mechanism 72 releases a state in which the caliper member 74 operable by the axial solenoid 73 via the pantograph mechanism clamps the disk portion 71 and the clamping pressure. The state can be selected. In this braking mechanism 72, only a state of braking the disk unit 71 and two states of releasing the braking can be selected. Axial movement If the current supplied to the solenoid 73 is controlled, the braking force can be controlled. Of course, the resistance applying means 70 is not limited to the above configuration. For example, the resistance applying means 70 can change the braking force by a dip switch installed at an appropriate part of the game machine, or can change the braking force in a predetermined manner according to the count information of inserted coins, for example. .
[0042]
In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, the micro switch 80 is used to detect the state where the prize holding container 53 is tilted, that is, the state where a prize as a chance prize is paid out. To be able to. More specifically, the detection arm portion 81 of the micro switch 80 arranged at an appropriate portion of the central mechanism portion 30 contacts the prize holding container 53 when the prize holding container 53 is in a normal state, while the prize holding container 53 is tilted. Then, the contact with this is released, and the tilt state is detected. Such detection information of the tilted state of the prize holding container 53 is used, for example, to turn on a decorative illumination provided in the showcase 25 and notify the surroundings that a chance prize has been given. In addition, this makes it possible to prompt the premium holding container 53 to be supplemented with premiums.
[0043]
Various prizes can be held in the prize holding container 53 according to the selection of the game machine installer. As described above, according to the size and form of the prize, a prize holding container 53 suitable for it can be attached. In the normal state, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the tension member 54 is set in a vertical state and the prize holding container 53 is set in a substantially horizontal state. Such setting is performed by the game machine installer when the prize is replenished. Then, according to the value of the prize to be held, the swing resistance of the tension member 54 applied by the resistance applying unit 70 is changed by appropriately operating the dip switch as described above.
[0044]
As described above, in the prize acquisition game machine, the scooping mechanism 40 can be operated to acquire the prize on the prize table 33 or the pusher table 62, and the prize pushed by the operation of the pusher table 62. If the pushing member 54 is pushed and displaced to the end of the fixed table 61, and the pushing member 54 can be removed from the fixed table 61, all the prizes held on the prize holding container 53 are all at once. Can be earned. This process is exciting. In other words, when the lower end portion of the tension member 54 is pushed by the prize on the fixed table 61, it gradually shifts to the tip end portion of the fixed table 61 as shown in FIG. Along with this, the prize holding container 53 gradually tilts forward about the support shaft 52. This situation means that it can be visually confirmed that the possibility of acquiring all the prizes on the prize holding container 53 is gradually increased. Finally, when the lower end of the tension member 54 falls off from the front end of the fixed table 61, the prize holding container 53 tilted to the limit that can be supported by the tension member 54 loses its support and tilts forward at once, and the inner prize All fall into the prize drop opening 32. Since the prize holding container 53 is installed at a relatively high level, it is powerful that the prizes fall at once. Thus, the prize payout mechanism 50 having the above-described configuration can remarkably enhance the interest of this type of prize acquisition game machine.
[0045]
The prize holding container 53 is supported in part by a stay 51 extending from the central mechanism 30 and partly supported by the tension member 54. Therefore, as long as the tension member 54 is not deformed, even a considerably heavy prize can be held without any problem. A constant frictional force is generated between the lower end portion of the tension member 54 and the fixed table 61. However, according to recent theories, such a frictional force does not depend only on the load and the friction coefficient, but frictionally contacts each other. It is known that it also depends on the area. Therefore, the tension member 54 is a rod-like member as in the above embodiment, and the frictional force is reduced by significantly reducing the contact area between the lower end portion and the fixed table 61 with a dome shape. it can. Even if the weight of the prize holding container 53 is increased by setting the position of the support shaft 52 that swings and supports the prize holding container 53 to a position as close as possible to the total center of gravity of the prize holding container 53, the tension is increased. It is possible to prevent the load acting on the member 54 from becoming so large. Therefore, there is a concern that even if the weight of the prize is large, the displacement movement of the tension member 54 due to being pushed by the prize on the fixed table 61 as described above is remarkably hindered, and thereby the probability of obtaining the prize is remarkably lowered. Nor.
[0046]
Of course, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above. For example, the form of the prize acquisition game machine is not limited to that of the embodiment, and the prize may be placed on the pusher table 62 by the crane-type scooping mechanism 40. The prize table 33 may be a fixed one instead of a rotary one. Furthermore, the present invention can be applied not only to a prize acquisition game machine but also to a medal game machine.
