Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine that is installed and used in a game hall such as a pachinko parlor.

  In this specification, a pachinko machine is described as an example, and a pachinko ball is used as a game medium. However, the game medium includes other media such as medals. In addition, it is assumed that a pachinko ball enters a winning opening provided on the game board surface of the game board.

  One type of pachinko machine is a type of pachinko machine called a digipachi. In general, in a digipachi type pachinko machine, a game is performed in a normal mode and a hit mode, and first, a game in the normal mode is started. A symbol display device is provided in the center portion of the game board surface. When a pachinko ball wins a winning prize opening, symbols such as numbers and characters are variably displayed on the symbol display device.

  In addition, when a pachinko ball wins a winning prize opening, a winning determination lottery is performed to determine whether or not to win by a lottery. When the winning determination lottery is won, the symbol display device displays a winning display mode (for example, “7”, “7”, “7”, etc.) in which symbols are predetermined on the winning line. Eye) is stopped and displayed, and the transition to the hit mode is notified. On the other hand, when the winning decision lottery is not won, the symbol display device displays a display mode for losing symbols (for example, “7”, “5”, “6”, etc.) on the winning line. If the eyes are irregular, the display is stopped and notification of the loss is performed.

  Further, in the symbol display device, a reach display mode (for example, “7”, “7”, “−”, where “−” indicates an unstopped state) for notifying a state in which the symbol may be shifted to the hit mode. In the process of variable display of symbols until a predetermined combination is established, scroll display in which symbols flow one after another and effect display using characters and background images are performed.

  However, as described above, in the conventional digital display type pachinko machine symbol display device, as a display mode for notifying of winning or losing, most of the specific symbols are stopped and displayed on the winning line. Even if it went to the game hall, there was a drawback that the display mode was uniform and it did not appear as a substitute. In addition, since the pachinko ball won in the starting prize opening is discharged to the back side of the game board, there is a disadvantage that the movement of the pachinko ball won in the starting prize opening cannot be enjoyed.

  The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-described problems, and can give a player a more entertaining visual amusement by giving a novel entertainment that is not related to a display mode for notifying whether or not it is a hit. An object is to provide a game machine that can be used.

In order to achieve the above object, the gaming machine according to the present invention includes a winning determination means for determining whether winning or losing by lottery when a predetermined winning condition is satisfied, and the winning determination means.

Further, the first effect pachinko ball sensor 47 is not limited to the proximity sensor, and a photoelectric sensor, a microswitch, or the like may be used, and can be changed as appropriate.

  The first effect pachinko ball discharge passage 27 includes an inflow portion 27a into which the first effect pachinko ball 26 flows, a guide path 27b for guiding the first effect pachinko ball 26 flowing in from the inflow section 27a, and a guide path 27b. And an outlet 27c for discharging the first staging pachinko ball 26 guided in step (b). The inflow portion 27 a is formed in a bowl shape and is installed so as to face the opening 45 f of the cover 45. More specifically, the inflow portion 27a is accelerated when the first effect pachinko ball 26 accommodated in the depression 43b is accelerated by its own weight and the downward slope of the bottom surface 43g of the depression 43b and discharged from the opening 45f of the cover 45. The first production pachinko ball 26 is installed at a location where it can be received. The guide path 27 b penetrates the partition plate 41 while being inclined downward toward the stage 25. The outlet 27 c is installed above the stage 25.

  Between the opening 45f of the cover 45 and the partition plate 41, a solenoid 48 is provided above the inflow portion 27a. The solenoid 48 includes a bobbin 48a and a driving iron plate 48b, and the driving iron plate 48b is installed so as to protrude toward the inner surface 27d of the inflow portion 27a.

  The solenoid 48 is connected to the CPU 46 and is switched ON / OFF in response to a command from the CPU 46. That is, when the solenoid 48 is in the ON state, power is supplied to the solenoid 48 for a predetermined time, and when the solenoid 48 is in the OFF state, power supply to the solenoid 48 is stopped. The configuration and function of the solenoid 48 are well known and will not be described in detail. However, when the solenoid 48 is energized, a magnetic field is generated by a coil (not shown) wound around the bobbin 48a, and the driving iron plate 48b is moved to the bobbin 48a. Pull inside. When the energization of the solenoid 48 is stopped, the driving iron plate 48b drawn into the bobbin 48a is drawn out from the bobbin 48a by a restoring force of a spring (not shown). The predetermined time is, for example, the time until the first effect pachinko ball 26 retained in the inflow portion 27a passes under the solenoid 48 and the entry to the guide path 27b is completed. It is sufficient that the energization is stopped between the time when the pachinko ball 26 enters the guide path 27b and the time when the pachinko ball 26 is returned to the initial position, which will be described later, by the recovery device 42. Further, the measurement of the predetermined time may be performed by a timer 68 described later.

  The shape of the driving iron plate 48b is formed so as to correspond to the shape of the inner surface 27d of the inflow portion 27a of the first effect pachinko ball discharge passage 27, and the driving iron plate 48b drawn into the bobbin 48a extends from the inside of the bobbin 48a. When pulled out, a part of the inflow portion 27a is blocked so as to prevent the first effect pachinko ball 26 discharged from the opening 45f of the cover 45 from entering the guide path 27b.

A possible space is formed. Thus, the first effect pachinko ball 26 discharged from the opening 45f of the cover 45 stays in the staying portion 49 until the driving iron plate 48b is drawn into the bobbin 48a. Before the game is started, the first effect pachinko ball 26 is installed in the staying portion 49. With this position as the initial position, the first effect pachinko ball 26 passes through the first effect pachinko ball discharge passage 27 to the stage 25 when the driving iron plate 48b is drawn into the bobbin 48a, as shown in FIG. Discharged. Thus, the first effect pachinko ball discharge passage 27 and the solenoid 48 function as first effect game ball discharge means.

  The stage 25 is for receiving the first effect pachinko ball 26 discharged from the first effect pachinko ball discharge passage 27 and causing the first effect pachinko ball 26 to move freely. The stage 25 is a dish-like container having an upper opening, and the bottom surface 25a has a curved shape.

The long groove 56b is formed to be elongated in the vertical direction. The two flat plates 56 are arranged at an interval k so that the long grooves 56b face each other. The interval k is set to be slightly larger than the diameter Z of the second support rod 32b and smaller than the width t of the protrusion 32c.

  The projection 32c of the second support rod 32b is fitted into the long groove 56b. When the projection 32c is fitted into the long groove 56b, first, the projection 32c is set so that the longitudinal direction of the projection 32c is parallel to the end surface 56a of the flat plate 56. Thus, it is arranged between one long groove 56b and the other long groove 56a. Then, the protrusion 32c is rotated 90 degrees so that the first support rod 32a is parallel to the end face 56a. Thereby, both ends of the protrusion 32c are fitted into the long groove 56b. By fitting the protrusion 32c into the long groove 56b in this manner, the support member 32 can move in the vertical direction.

  The rotating body 33 is for transmitting the power of the yellow box first motor 57 to the support member 32. The rotating body 33 is formed in a substantially disc shape. The rotating body 33 is rotatably attached to a shaft 33 a fixed to the pedestal 23. An arm 33 b is provided on the outer peripheral surface 33 a of the rotating body 33. The base end portion 32d of the second support member 32b is placed on the arm 33b. A plurality of gear teeth (not shown) are formed at locations other than the location where the arm 33 b is provided on the outer peripheral surface 33 a of the rotating body 33. The gear teeth are connected to a drive shaft (not shown) of the first yellow box motor 57 via a plurality of gears (not shown). The yellow box first motor 57 is connected to the CPU 46, and the yellow box first motor 57 is driven in response to a command from the CPU 46. When the first yellow box motor 57 is driven, this driving force is transmitted to the rotating body 33, and the rotating body 33 rotates.

  When the rotating body 33 rotates in the direction of arrow A in the figure, the second support bar 32b is pushed upward by the arm 33b. As a result, the second effect pachinko ball 31 moves upward, and the second effect pachinko ball 31 is exposed from the opening 23 c of the pedestal 23 to the exposure position on the pedestal 23. When the rotating body 33 rotates in the direction opposite to the arrow A direction in the drawing, the second effect pachinko ball 31 moves downward, and the second effect pachinko ball 31 moves to the concealment position of the hollow portion 23a of the pedestal 23. Concealed. In this way, the second effect pachinko ball 31 circulates and moves between the exposure position exposed on the pedestal 23 and the concealment position concealed by the hollow portion 23a. In the present embodiment, the support member 32, the protrusion 32c, the rotating body 33, the guide member 55, and the yellow box first motor 57 constitute a circulation moving means.

A yellow box 21 is placed on the upper surface 23 b of the pedestal 23. An opening 21 a is formed on one surface of the yellow box 21. The yellow box 21 is placed on the upper surface 23b of the pedestal 23 so that the opening 21a is positioned above the opening 23c of the pedestal 23 and the yellow box 21 covers the opening 23c. The yellow box 21 is pivotally attached to the upper surface 23b of the pedestal 23 by a rotation shaft 21b, and the yellow box 21 is an open position where the second effect pachinko 13 moved to the exposure position is visibly displayed. And the closed position where the second effect pachinko 13 moved to the exposure position is received and not displayed can be rotated (moved). Thus, yellow box 21 functions as a second effect for game ball receiving means.

  A plurality of gear teeth (not shown) are formed on the outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft 21b. The gear teeth are connected to a drive shaft (not shown) of the second yellow box motor 59 via a plurality of gears (not shown). The yellow box second motor 59 is connected to the CPU 46, and the yellow box second motor 59 is driven in response to a command from the CPU 46. When the first yellow box motor 59 is driven, this driving force is transmitted to the rotating shaft 21b, and the yellow box 21 rotates between the open position and the closed position. Thus, the yellow box first motor 59 functions as a driving means.

  Since the blue box 20 and the red box 22 have the same configuration as the yellow box 21, the description thereof is omitted.

  The payout control device 81 is activated when it is detected that a pachinko ball has been won by any one of the start winning port winning ball sensor 71, the big winning port winning ball sensor 72, and the normal winning port winning ball sensor 73. The payout control device 81 includes a memory, and this memory stores the number of payout balls for one winning pachinko ball for each winning opening. When a winning occurs at any of the winning openings, the payout control device 81 drives a storage device in which the payout pachinko balls are stored, and causes the number of pachinko balls to be paid out according to the type of the winning opening.

  The movable object control device 82 is connected to the attacker 14 and, when activated by the CPU 46, rotates the attacker 14 between a position where the big prize opening 13 is opened and a position where the big prize opening 13 is closed. The movable object control device 82 controls the movement of the movable object provided on the game board surface 15a of the game board 15.

  The launch control device 83 is connected to the launch handle H. When the launch handle H is operated, the launch control device 83 launches the pachinko balls at regular intervals according to the launch strength of the pachinko balls adjusted by the launch handle H. .

  The CPU 46 supports the support member 32, the protrusion 32 c, the rotating body 33, and the first yellow box motor 57 so as to move the second effect pachinko ball 31 to the exposure position based on the lottery result in the hit determination unit 64. And a box determining unit in response to a detection signal that is output when the first effect pachinko ball sensor 47 is detected by the first effect pachinko ball sensor 47. The second motor 59 for yellow box, the first motor 75 for blue box, the first motor for red box so that any one of the blue box 20, yellow box 21 and red box 22 determined in 67 is moved to the open position. Of the one motor 76, the operation of the motor corresponding to the box determined by the box determination unit 67 is controlled to function as an effect display control means for starting the effect display by the effect display unit 24.

Next, the operation of the pachinko machine 10 configured as described above will be described with reference to the flowcharts of FIGS. In the pachinko machine 10 , a game in the normal mode is first performed. When the player starts the game and operates the launch handle H to launch a pachinko ball on the game area 15b of the game board 15, the launched pachinko ball wins either the start winning port 11 or the normal winning port 16. Or enter the outlet 17.

  When a pachinko ball wins the start winning opening 11, a start signal is input from the start winning opening winning ball sensor 71 to the CPU 46. The CPU 46 turns on the solenoid 48 and activates the hit determination unit 64. When the solenoid 48 is turned on, as shown in FIG. 4, energization is performed and the driving iron plate 48b is drawn into the bobbin 48a. As a result, the first effect pachinko ball 26 installed at the initial position is discharged to the stage 25 through the first effect pachinko ball discharge passage 27. The hit determination unit 64 performs a hit determination lottery to determine a win or a loss.

  The first effect pachinko ball 26 discharged to the stage 25 flows freely on the stage 25 and then flows into any of the first to third discharge passages 28 to 30 from the hole 25b. The first performance pachinko ball 26 passes through the guide path 29b of the second discharge passage 29 and is discharged from the outlet 29c. The first performance pachinko ball 26 discharged from the outlet 29 c passes through the opening 45 g of the cover 43 and is accommodated in the recess 43 c of the recovery rotating body 43. When the first effect pachinko ball 26 enters the recess 43c, the first effect pachinko ball sensor detects this and inputs a detection signal to the CPU 46.

  When the detection signal is input to the CPU 46, the collection motor 44 starts to be driven. The collection rotator 43 rotates 180 degrees around the shaft 44 a in a state where the first effect pachinko ball 26 is enclosed by the recess 43 c and the cover 43. When the recovery rotating body 43 rotates 180 degrees, the first performance pachinko ball 26 flows from the recess 43c through the opening 45f of the cover 45 into the inflow portion 27a and is set at the initial position.

  When winning is determined in the winning determination lottery in the winning determining unit 64, the CPU 46 responds to the detection signal among the first motor 75 for the blue box, the first motor 57 for the yellow box, and the first motor 76 for the red box. The first drive start signal is input to the motor corresponding to the box determined by the box determination unit 67. For example, when the box determined by the box determination unit 67 is the blue box 20, the CPU 46 inputs a first drive start signal to the first blue box motor 75. The first motor 75 for the blue box starts driving so as to rotate the rotating body 33 and move the second effect pachinko ball 31 from the concealment position to the exposure position. When the second effect pachinko ball 31 reaches the exposure position, the motor stops driving.

  When the second effect pachinko ball 31 reaches the exposure position, the CPU 46 inputs a second drive start signal to the second blue box motor 77 and activates the timer 68 to start timing. The second motor 77 for blue box starts driving so as to move the blue box 20 from the closed position to the open position. When the blue box 20 reaches the open position, the motor stops driving.

  When the time measured by the timer 68 reaches a predetermined time, the CPU 46 inputs a third drive start signal to the second blue box motor 77. When the third drive start signal is input, the second motor 77 for blue box starts driving so as to move the blue box 20 from the open position to the closed position. When the blue box 20 reaches the closed position, the motor stops driving.

  When the blue box 20 reaches the closed position, the first motor 75 for blue box starts driving so as to rotate the rotating body 33 and move the second effect pachinko ball 31 from the exposed position to the concealed position. When the second effect pachinko ball 31 reaches the concealment position, the motor stops driving.

  After a series of effect display using the first effect pachinko ball 26 and the second effect pachinko ball 31 is performed in this way, the CPU 46 reads the execution program of the hit mode from the ROM area of the memory 66, Transition from normal mode to hit mode. When the hit mode is entered, the movable object control device 82 is operated, and the attacker 14 is rotated to the open position. Thereby, the big winning opening 13 is opened and the pachinko ball becomes easy to win. In the winning mode, one round ends when the big winning opening 13 is opened for a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds) or when a predetermined number (for example, ten) of pachinko balls are won in the large winning opening 13. The hit mode continues up to a maximum of 15 rounds by satisfying a predetermined condition every round.

  In the case where the loss is determined in the winning determination lottery in the hit determination unit 64, the CPU 46 responds to the detection signal among the second motor 77 for blue box, the second motor 59 for yellow box, and the second motor 78 for red box. The second drive start signal is input to the motor corresponding to the box determined by the box determination unit 67. For example, when the box determined by the box determination unit 67 is the blue box 20, the CPU 46 inputs a second drive start signal to the second motor 77 for blue box and activates the timer 68 to start timing. The second motor 77 for blue box starts driving so as to move the blue box 20 from the closed position to the open position. When the blue box 20 reaches the open position, the motor stops driving.

  When the time measured by the timer 68 reaches a predetermined time, the CPU 46 inputs a third drive start signal to the second blue box motor 77. When the third drive start signal is input, the second motor 77 for blue box starts driving so as to move the blue box 20 from the open position to the closed position. When the blue box 20 reaches the closed position, the motor stops driving.

  The case where the yellow box 21 and the red box 22 are determined by the box determination unit 67 operates in the same manner as the case of the blue box 20 described above. That is, when the box determined by the box determination unit 67 is the yellow box 21, the second effect pachinko ball 31 installed below the yellow box 21 based on the lottery result by the hit determination unit 64. Is set to the concealment position or the exposure position by the first yellow box motor 57, and the yellow box 21 is moved between the open position and the closed position by the second yellow box motor 59. If the box determined by the box determining unit 67 is the red box 22, the second effect pachinko ball 31 installed below the red box 22 is red based on the lottery result by the hit determining unit 64. The first box motor 76 sets the concealment position or the exposure position, and the red box 22 is moved between the open position and the closed position by the second red box motor 78.

  As described above, when the first effect pachinko ball sensor 47 detects the first effect pachinko ball 26, when the lottery result in the hit determination unit 64 is a win, the box determination unit 67 determines the result. When the pachinko ball 31 for the second performance corresponding to the box is moved from the concealment position to the exposure position, the box is moved from the closed position to the open position, and the lottery result in the hit determination unit 64 is lost The box determined by the box determining unit 67 is moved from the closed position to the opened position without moving the second effect pachinko ball 31 from the concealment position, and the effect display unit 24 responds to the lottery result in the hit determination unit 64 Since the effect display is performed, the player is made to identify the type of the lottery result in the hit determination unit by making it visible whether the second effect pachinko ball 31 is inside the box or not. , For the first production It can draw attention to the floating mode of on the stage 25 of the penis ball 26. Moreover, since the play mode is an effect accompanied by an irregular and physical three-dimensional operation, it is not monotonous and can prevent the player from getting bored. Further, since there are a plurality of boxes, the player can enjoy the pleasure of predicting which box contains the pachinko ball 31 for the second performance.

Further, after the pachinko ball is the starting winning opening 11, effect using the first effect for pachinko ball 26 and the second effect for pachinko ball 31 in place of pachinko balls won is performed, though the starting winning opening 11 It can be shown as if the production is being performed using the winning pachinko ball. As a result, the visual effect can be enhanced, and the player can be given an impression that a lottery for winning or failing is performed using the pachinko ball won in the start winning opening 11. In addition, the player cannot know the lottery result in the hit determination unit 64 until the box determined in the box determination unit 67 is moved from the closed position to the open position, and thus, the expectation of winning and the game It is possible to enhance the interest, and in the case of a win, you can enjoy a special sense of accomplishment.

  In the said embodiment, although the blue box 20, the yellow box 21, and the red box 22 were used, the number of boxes can be changed suitably.

  In the said embodiment, although the box according to the lottery result in the box determination part 67 was moved from a closed position to an open position, it selects not only this but any one of several boxes. At this time, an operation means operated by the player may be provided, and the box selected by the operation means may be moved from the closed position to the open position.

  In the above embodiment, a box determination lottery is performed to randomly select any one of a plurality of boxes, and the selected box is opened to determine whether there is a second staging pachinko ball 31 in the box. However, after the first effect pachinko ball 26 is idled on the stage 25, the first effect pachinko ball 26 is randomly selected from any of a plurality of discharge passages. May be controlled so as to shift to a gaming state advantageous to the player (for example, probability variation mode) according to the type of the box ahead of the player, When the pachinko ball 31 for use is exposed, control may be performed so as to shift to the hit mode.

  In the above embodiment, when the second effect pachinko balls 31 are installed one by one for each box and the winning determination unit 64 determines the winning, the first motor 75 for the blue box, the first for the yellow box. Of the motor 57 and the first motor 76 for red box, the motor corresponding to the box determined according to the lottery result in the box determination unit 67 is driven to move the second effect pachinko ball 31 to the exposure position. However, only one second pachinko ball 31 for the second performance is prepared, and the second pachinko ball 31 for the second performance is moved below the box determined according to the lottery result in the box determination unit 67. The effect pachinko ball 31 may be moved to the exposure position.

  In this case, for example, an X-direction shift mechanism that moves the pachinko ball 31 for second performance horizontally between the blue box 20, the yellow box 21, and the red box 22, and the blue box 20, the yellow box 21, and the red box 22 In each case, a Y-direction shift mechanism for moving the second effect pachinko ball 31 in the vertical direction between the concealment position and the exposure position is provided, and when the hit determination unit 64 determines the hit, the second effect pachinko ball 31 Is moved below the box determined according to the lottery result in the box determination unit 67 by the X-direction shift mechanism according to the instruction of the CPU 46, and then moved from the concealment position to the exposure position by the Y-direction shift mechanism. good. Each shift mechanism described above only needs to be constituted by a belt, a screw, a rack and pinion, a link, and the like.

  In the above embodiment, the first rendering pachinko ball 26 discharged from the second discharge passage 29 is returned to the initial position by using the recovery device 42 including the recovery rotator 43, the recovery motor 44, and the cover 45. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a combination of a belt, a gear, a rack and pinion, a link mechanism, an electromagnet, or the like may be used instead of the collection device 42, and the first effect pachinko ball 26 is returned to the initial position. The means can be changed as appropriate.

  In the above embodiment, when the hit determination unit 64 determines the hit, the second effect pachinko ball 13 set at the exposure position is hidden by the box, and the box is moved from the closed position to the open position for the second effect. Although the pachinko ball 13 is made visible, when the hit determination unit 64 determines the hit, the second effect pachinko ball 13 may be simply moved from the concealment position to the exposure position without using a box.

  In the above embodiment, the effect display unit 24 performs the effect display according to the lottery result in the hit determination unit 64. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a liquid crystal panel functioning as an effect display unit is incorporated in the game board 15, and this You may make it perform the effect display according to the lottery result in the winning determination part 64 by displaying a specific design using a liquid crystal panel. Further, the second effect pachinko ball 31 and the liquid crystal panel may be used in combination.

A second solenoid (driving means) 119 corresponding to the first accommodating portion 115 and a second solenoid 119 corresponding to the second accommodating portion 118 are disposed above the partition plate 97 and the back wall 96 a in the first inclined base 100. Three solenoids (drive means) 120 (see FIG. 11) are provided. Hereinafter, the second solenoid 119 and the third solenoid 120 will be described. Since the second solenoid 119 and the third solenoid 120 have the same configuration and function, the second solenoid 119 will be described as an example. Detailed description of the 3 solenoid 120 is omitted. Further, since the configurations and functions of the second solenoid 119 and the third solenoid 120 are the same as those of the solenoid 48 described in the first embodiment, detailed description thereof is omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 13, the second solenoid 119 includes a bobbin 119a and a driving iron plate (moving member) 119b. The second solenoid 119 is switched ON / OFF in response to a command from the CPU 46. When the second solenoid 119 is in the ON state, the solenoid 48 is energized for a predetermined time, and when the second solenoid 119 is in the OFF state, the energization to the solenoid 48 is stopped. When the second solenoid 119 is energized, a magnetic field is generated by a coil wound around the bobbin 119a, and the driving iron plate 119b is drawn into the bobbin 119a. When energization of the second solenoid 119 is stopped, the driving iron plate 119b drawn into the bobbin 119a is pulled out from the inside of the bobbin 119a by a restoring force of a spring (not shown). When the driving iron plate 119b is pulled out from the bobbin 119a, the opening 115a of the first housing portion 115 is closed by the driving iron plate 119b. As a result, the hitting pachinko ball 117 is enclosed in the first housing 115 by the driving iron plate 119b and becomes invisible.

  The predetermined time mentioned above indicates the time required for the hitting pachinko ball 117 to be discharged from the first housing 115 to the first tilting table 100, and the hitting pachinko ball 117 is discharged to the first tilting table 100. It is sufficient that the energization is stopped from when the second collection device 104 returns to the first storage unit 115 until the second collection device 104 returns to the first storage unit 115. The measurement of the predetermined time may be performed by the timer 68.

  Before the game is started, the hitting pachinko ball 117 is installed in the first accommodating portion 115. As shown in FIG. 14, when the driving iron plate 119b is drawn into the bobbin 119a, the hitting pachinko ball 117 is discharged to the first inclined base 100, which is the exposure position, and is displayed so as to be visible. As described above, the driving iron plate 119b of the second solenoid 119 has an open position where the hitting pachinko ball 117 is displayed on the first inclined base 100 (exposed position) in a state in which the driving iron plate 119b is drawn into the bobbin 119a.

  Similar to the second solenoid 119, the third solenoid 120 includes a bobbin 120a and a driving iron plate 120b (see FIG. 12). The driving iron plate 119b of the second solenoid 119 functions as a moving member that can move between the open position and the closed position. Similarly, the driving iron plate 120b of the third solenoid 120 is a pachinko machine for losing. It is possible to move between an open position where the sphere 118 is displayed on the first inclined base 100 (exposed position) and a closed position where the slack pachinko ball 118 is enclosed in the second housing portion 116 (hidden position) and is not displayed. It functions as a movable member. Similarly to the second solenoid 119, the third solenoid 120 functions as a drive unit that drives the driving iron plate 120b between the open position and the closed position.

  When the second recovery rotator 108 is attached to the back wall 96a, the recesses 108b and the recesses 108c are arranged to be symmetrical in the vertical direction in the same manner as the first recovery rotator 105. The second recovery cover 110 is for covering the second recovery rotator 108 in the same manner as the first recovery cover 107 covers the first recovery rotator 105. The configuration is almost the same as 107. The second recovery cover 110 has an opening 110a corresponding to the recess 108c of the second recovery rotator 108 when the second recovery rotator 108 is covered with the second recovery cover 110. An opening 110b is formed so as to correspond to an opening formed on a surface facing the inner surface 96b of the inner wall 96a of the housing portion 115, and an opening (not shown) similar to the opening 110b is formed in the second housing portion. 116 is formed so as to correspond to an opening (not shown) formed on the surface facing the inner surface 96b of the back wall 96a. The second recovery cover 110 is attached to the back wall 96 a in the same manner as the first recovery cover 105. When the second recovery cover 110 is attached to the wall 96a, the second recovery rotator 108 is confined by the back wall 96a and the second recovery cover 110.

  An opening 110 c is formed at a location corresponding to the recess 108 c of the second recovery rotating body 108 on the side peripheral surface of the second recovery cover 110. A second effect pachinko ball sensor 121 is provided in the opening 110c. The second effect pachinko ball sensor 121 is connected to the CPU 46. The second effect pachinko ball sensor 121 is for detecting that either the hit pachinko ball 117 or the lose pachinko ball 118 has passed through the second inclined base 101 and is accommodated in the recess 108c. When either the hitting pachinko ball 117 or the lost pachinko ball 118 is accommodated in the recess 108 c, it is detected by the second effect pachinko ball sensor 121, and a detection signal is sent to the CPU 46.

  As shown in FIG. 15, the main controller 62 is provided with a stop symbol determining unit 122 and a special hit determining unit 123. In addition, the CPU 46 includes a second effect pachinko ball sensor 121 and a special prize opening winning ball sensor 124 via an input interface (not shown). A recovery motor 106, a second recovery motor 109, a first solenoid 111, a second solenoid 119, and a third solenoid 120 are connected.

  The stop symbol determination unit 122 determines a combination of symbols to be stopped and displayed from the liquid crystal panel 91a. The stop symbol determination unit 122 includes a random number generator, a random number sampling circuit, and a stop symbol table, and is operated after the winning determination unit 64 performs a lottery. The stop symbol table is composed of two types of tables: a lose table and a winning table. Which table is used for the lottery is selected based on the lottery result in the hit determination unit 64. Then, when the random number values sampled by the random number sampling circuit are compared with the selected table, the combination of symbols to be stopped and displayed on the liquid crystal panel 91a is determined. When the lottery at the stop symbol determination unit 122 is completed and the combination of symbols to be stopped and displayed from the liquid crystal panel 91a is determined, a signal indicating the determined symbol combination is input from the CPU 46 to the symbol display control device 91.

  The symbol display control device 91 is provided with a display control CPU (not shown). A signal corresponding to the game state is input from the CPU 46 to the display control CPU. In response to the input signal, the display control CPU reads out the effect display data from a memory (not shown) provided in the symbol display control device 91, and starts the variable display of the symbols from the liquid crystal panel 91a. Then, the display control CPU monitors which head address is assigned to each symbol displayed on the liquid crystal panel 91a, thereby identifying which symbol is displayed from the liquid crystal panel 91a, and performing variable display of the symbol. The symbols are stopped and displayed so that the types of symbols determined by the stop symbol determining unit 122 are displayed.

  The special winning opening winning ball sensor 124 detects whether or not a pachinko ball has been won in the special winning opening 92. When the special winning opening winning ball sensor 124 detects the winning of the pachinko ball, the CPU 46 operates the payout control device 81 to cause the number of pachinko balls corresponding to the special winning opening 92 to be paid out.

  Further, in the winning mode, when the special winning opening winning ball sensor 124 detects the winning of the pachinko ball, a special start signal is input to the CPU 46. The CPU 46 operates the special hit determination unit 93 in response to the special start signal. Further, the CPU 46 turns on the first solenoid 111 in response to the special start signal. When the first solenoid 111 is turned on, the first solenoid 111 is energized, and the driving iron plate 111b is drawn into the bobbin 111a. As a result, the first effect pachinko ball 26 arranged at the initial position passes through the first effect pachinko ball guide table 99 and is discharged to the stage 98. In addition, the time of the ON state of the first solenoid 111 is measured by the timer 68, and when the predetermined time (the time required for the first effect pachinko ball 26 to pass through the opening 97a) elapses, the first solenoid 111 is turned off, and again. The driving iron plate 111b is pulled out from the bobbin 111a.

  The special hit determination unit 93 includes a random number generator, a random number sampling circuit, and a special hit determination table for determining whether or not to win, each time the start winning opening winning ball sensor 71 detects a winning of a pachinko ball. Sample a random value. The sampled random number value is checked against a special hit determination table, and either winning or losing is determined by lottery.

  In the special hit determination table, a random number value to be hit is assigned among all random number values generated when sampling of random number values. Then, by determining whether or not the sampled random number value matches the random number value assigned to the special hit determination table, it is determined whether to make a loss or a win. When the winning is determined by the special hit determining unit 93, the special hit mode is set, and the CPU 46 controls the operation of the movable object control device 82 so as to continue the round in the hit mode. In other words, the movement of the attacker 14 is controlled by the movable object control device 82 so that the period for opening the special winning opening 13 in the hit mode is extended.

  When the first effect pachinko ball sensor 47 detects the first effect pachinko ball 26, a detection signal is input to the CPU 46. When a detection signal is input to the CPU 46, the CPU 46 inputs a signal indicating that driving of the first recovery motor 106 is started to the first recovery motor 106 via a driver (not shown). When the signal is input, the first recovery motor 106 starts driving so as to rotate the first recovery rotator 105 about the shaft 106a by 180 degrees. The driving of the first recovery motor 106 stops when the recess 105c reaches the position of the recess 105b.

  When the first winning pachinko ball sensor 47 is detected by the first directing pachinko ball sensor 47 when the special hit determining unit 93 determines the winning, the CPU 46 turns on the second solenoid 119 in response to this detection. To do. When the second solenoid 119 is turned on, the second solenoid 119 is energized, and the driving iron plate 119b moves from the closed position to the open position. Thereby, the hitting pachinko balls 117 housed in the first housing part 115 are discharged to the first tilting table 100. The time for which the first solenoid 111 is in the ON state is measured by the timer 68, and a predetermined time (the time required for the hitting pachinko ball 117 to be discharged from the first housing portion 115 to the first tilting table 100) is obtained. After a lapse of time, the driving state is turned off, and the driving iron plate 119b is pulled out from the bobbin 119a again.

  When the first hitting pachinko ball sensor 47 is detected by the first directing pachinko ball sensor 47 when the special hit determining unit 93 determines a loss, the CPU 46 turns on the third solenoid 120 in response to this detection. To do. When the third solenoid 120 is turned on, the third solenoid 120 is energized, and the driving iron plate 120b moves from the closed position to the open position. As a result, the slinging pachinko ball 118 housed in the second housing portion 116 is discharged to the first tilting table 100. Note that the time during which the third solenoid 111 is in the ON state is measured by the timer 68, and a predetermined time (the time required for the loss pachinko ball 118 to be discharged from the second housing portion 116 to the first tilting table 100). After a lapse of time, the drive iron plate is turned off and the driving iron plate is pulled out from the bobbin of the third solenoid 111.

  When either the hit pachinko ball 117 or the lose pachinko ball 118 is detected by the second effect pachinko ball sensor 121, a detection signal is input to the CPU 46. When a detection signal is input to the CPU 46, the CPU 46 inputs a signal indicating that driving of the second recovery motor 109 is started to the second recovery motor 109 via a driver (not shown). When the signal is input, the second recovery motor 109 starts driving so as to rotate the second recovery rotator 108 about the shaft 109a by 180 degrees. The driving of the second recovery motor 109 stops when the recess 108c reaches the position of the recess 108b. The direction in which the second recovery rotating body 108 rotates by driving the second recovery motor 109 varies according to the lottery result in the special hit determination unit 93.

  Specifically, the winning is determined by the special hit determining unit 93, a signal for turning on the second solenoid 119 is input from the CPU 46 to the second solenoid 119, and the hit pachinko ball 117 is moved from the first storage unit 115. When discharged, the second recovery motor 109 is driven so that the recess 108c of the second recovery rotating body 108 rotates via the opening 110b of the second recovery cover 110, and a special hit determination unit. When the loss is determined at 93 and a signal for turning on the third solenoid 120 is input from the CPU 46 to the third solenoid 120, and the pachinko ball 118 for losing is discharged from the second storage portion 116, the second The recovery motor 109 faces the opening (not shown) formed on the surface facing the back wall 96a of the second housing portion 116 so as to face the second recovery cover 11. It is driven to rotate via the formed opening (not shown). Thereby, when the hitting pachinko ball 117 is accommodated in the recess 108c, the second collecting device 104 causes the hitting pachinko ball 117 to be moved in the middle of the rotation of the second recovery rotating body 108. When the slack pachinko ball 118 is housed in the recess 108c, the second slack pachinko ball 118 is moved by the second collection device 104 while the second collection rotating body 108 is rotating. Flow into.

  The CPU 46 responds to a detection signal output when the first effect pachinko ball sensor 47 is detected by the first effect pachinko ball sensor 47, and based on the lottery result in the hit determination unit 64, The operation of the second solenoid 119 and the third solenoid 120 is controlled so as to move the ball 117 or the slack pachinko ball 118 to the exposure position, and functions as an effect display control means for starting the effect display by the effect display unit 94. Further, the second effect game ball receiving means for receiving the hitting pachinko ball 117 moved to the exposure position is composed of the second recovery device 104 and the first storage unit 115, and for the lose that has been moved to the exposure position.

  Next, the operation of the pachinko machine 10 configured as described above will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. In the pachinko machine 2, a game in the normal mode is first performed. When the player starts the game and operates the launch handle 9 to launch a pachinko ball on the game area 15b of the game board 15, the launched pachinko ball wins either the start winning port 11 or the normal winning port 16. Or enter the outlet 17.

  When the winning determination unit 64 determines the winning and shifts from the normal mode to the winning mode, a symbol indicating that the winning determining unit 64 has determined the winning is stopped and displayed on the liquid crystal panel 91a. If a pachinko ball wins a special winning opening 92 while the winning mode is being executed, a special start signal is input to the CPU 46.

  In response to the special start signal, the CPU 46 turns on the first solenoid 111 and operates the special hit determination unit 93. When the first solenoid 111 is turned on, energization is performed, and the driving iron plate 111b moves from the closed position shown in FIG. 13 to the open position shown in FIG. As a result, the first effect pachinko ball 26 installed at the initial position is discharged to the stage 98 through the first effect pachinko ball guide table 99. The special hit determination unit 93 performs a hit determination lottery to determine a win or a loss.

  The first performance pachinko ball 26 discharged to the stage 98 flows on the stage 98 and then flows into the discharge passage 102 from the hole 98b. The first performance pachinko ball 26 passes through the guide path 102b of the discharge passage 102 and is discharged from the outlet 102c. The first performance pachinko sphere 26 discharged from the outlet 102 c passes through the opening 107 b of the first accommodation cover 107 and is accommodated in the recess 105 c of the first recovery rotator 105. When the first effect pachinko ball 26 enters the recess 105 c, the first effect pachinko ball sensor 47 detects this and inputs a detection signal to the CPU 46.

  When the detection signal is input to the CPU 46, the first recovery motor 106 starts driving. The first recovery rotator 105 rotates 180 degrees around the shaft 106 a in a state where the first effect pachinko ball 26 is enclosed by the recess 105 c and the first recovery cover 107. When the first recovery rotating body 105 rotates 180 degrees, the first performance pachinko ball 26 flows into the inflow portion 99a from the recess 105c through the opening 107a of the first housing cover 107, and is set at the initial position again. .

  When the winning is determined by the winning determination lottery in the special winning determining unit 93, the CPU 46 turns on the second solenoid 119 in response to the detection signal of the first effect pachinko ball sensor 47. When the second solenoid 119 is turned on, energization is performed, and the driving iron plate 119b moves from the closed position shown in FIG. 13 to the open position shown in FIG. As a result, the hitting pachinko balls 117 housed in the first housing part 115 are discharged to the first tilting table 100. The hitting pachinko balls 117 roll in the order of the first tilting table 100 and the second tilting table 101, and are accommodated in the recess 108c of the second recovery device 104. The player can visually recognize how the hitting pachinko ball 117 rolls on the first inclined base 100 and the second inclined base 101 through the opening 15d.

The second recovery rotating body 108 is driven so that the recess 108 c rotates through the opening 110 b of the second recovery cover 110. The second recovery rotating body 108 rotates around the shaft 109a in a state where the hitting pachinko ball 117 is enclosed by the recess 108c and the second recovery cover 110, and eventually the position where the recess 108c faces the opening 110b. When reaching the position, the hitting pachinko ball 117 flows into the first accommodating portion 115 from the recess 108c via the opening 110b due to its own weight and the shape of the recess 108c formed in a spherical shape. The driving of the second recovery motor 109 stops when the second recovery rotator 108 rotates 180 degrees.

  When the driving of the second recovery motor 109 stops, the special hit mode is entered, and the CPU 46 controls the operation of the movable object control device 82 so as to continue the round in the hit mode.

  In the case where the loss is determined in the winning determination lottery in the special hit determination unit 93, the CPU 46 turns on the third solenoid 120 in response to the detection signal of the first effect pachinko ball sensor 47. When the third solenoid 120 is turned on, energization is performed, and the driving iron plate 120b moves from the closed position to the open position. As a result, the slinging pachinko ball 118 housed in the second housing part 116 is discharged to the first tilting table 100. The lost pachinko ball 118 rolls in the order of the first tilting table 100 and the second tilting table 101, and is accommodated in the recess 108c of the second recovery device 104. The player can visually recognize how the slack pachinko ball 118 rolls on the first inclined base 100 and the second inclined base 101 through the opening 15d.

  When the lost pachinko ball 118 is accommodated in the recess 108 c, the second effect pachinko ball sensor 121 detects this and inputs a detection signal to the CPU 46. When the detection signal is input to the CUP 46, the second recovery motor 109 starts driving. The second recovery rotating body 108 is formed on the second recovery cover 110 such that the recess 108c faces an opening (not shown) formed on the surface facing the inner wall 96a of the second housing portion 116. It is driven to rotate through an opening (not shown). The second recovery rotating body 108 rotates around the shaft 109a in a state where the slack pachinko ball 118 is enclosed by the recess 108c and the second recovery cover 110, and eventually the position where the recess 108c faces the opening. When reaching the position, the slack pachinko ball 118 flows into the second accommodating portion 116 from the depression 108c via the opening due to its own weight and the shape of the depression 108c formed in a spherical shape. The driving of the second recovery motor 109 stops when the second recovery rotator 108 rotates 180 degrees.
