Then, as shown in FIG. 6, the front wall 10a bulges to the front side at the center of the front wall 10a, and a concave arc surface 55 is formed as a position fixing means in the shape of an arc surface recessed forward. Specifically, the concave arc surface 55 has a curvature that is substantially the same as the trajectory followed by the tip of the rotating shaft 48 when the rotating shaft 48 is reciprocally rotated around the rear end central portion 48a in the horizontal plane. It is formed as an arc surface having a radius. Further, a horizontally long elliptical insertion hole 56 is opened corresponding to the concave arc surface 55.

  On the rear side of the mounting cover frame 10, an arc plate member 57 is disposed as a position fixing means that is fitted to the rear gripping member 38 and attached to the hitting force adjusting handle 11. The arc plate member 57 includes a concave arc plate 58 whose front surface is in sliding contact with the concave arc surface 55 on the rear surface of the mounting cover frame 10, and is held so as to protrude forward from the front surface of the concave arc plate 58. A cylindrical portion 59 is provided integrally. The holding cylinder portion 59 has a shaft hole 59b through which the rotating shaft 48 is inserted in the center of a rear wall 59a that opens the front surface and closes the rear surface. Further, as shown in FIG. 7, a meshing portion 60 in which a plurality of teeth 60 a are arranged along the arc surface is provided on the upper back surface of the concave arc plate 58.

  Further, in order to hold the arc plate member 57 so as to be slidable to the left and right along the concave arc surface 55 on the rear surface of the front wall 10a in the mounting cover frame 10, the arc plate member 57 is positioned as a position fixing means at the upper and lower positions. An upper fixing member 61 and a lower fixing member 62 are disposed. The upper fixing member 61 has a box frame body 61a whose front surface is opened. A screw 63 is inserted into the screw insertion portion 61b and screwed to the rear surface of the mounting cover frame 10. A pushing member 64 having a substantially T-shaped plane is provided in the box frame 61a so as to be inserted from the front side. The pushing member 64 is opposed to the rear surface of the arc plate member 57 so as to slide freely in the front-rear direction. Further, as shown in FIG. 7, a compression spring 64 a is interposed between the inner surface of the upper fixing member 61 and the pushing member 64, and the arc member 57 is always pressed against the concave arc surface 55 by the pushing member 64. I am doing so. On the front surface of the pushing member 64, a meshing portion 65 having teeth 65a that mesh with the teeth 60a of the meshing portion 60 on the rear surface of the arc plate member 57 is provided. The rear knob portion 66 of the push member 64 protrudes rearward from a drawer port 67 provided in the rear wall 61c of the upper fixing member 61. The lower fixing member 62 is also fixed to the rear surface of the mounting cover frame 10 by screwing the screws 63.

  Therefore, the hitting force adjusting handle 11 is inserted into the insertion hole 56 from the front side of the mounting cover frame 10 and is inserted into the holding cylinder portion 59 of the arc plate member 57. Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the screw 69 is screwed into the screw hole 38 b of the rear gripping member 38 that matches the screw insertion hole 68 through the screw insertion hole 68 provided in the lower portion of the holding cylinder portion 59.

At this time, both the engaging pins 53 and 53 of the rear end center portion 48a are engaged with the cutout grooves 24b and 24b provided in the bearing member 24 and opened at the front end. The radius of curvature of the inner peripheral surface of the recess 25 in the bearing member 24 and the radius of curvature of the outer peripheral surface of the rear end central portion 48a of the rotating shaft 48 are set to be almost the same. It slides freely and smoothly in either the left or right direction. Therefore, as the rotation shaft 48 rotates in a plane orthogonal to the central axis, the bearing member 24 also rotates simultaneously in a plane including the front surface of the mounting substrate 19. Moreover, in a state where the meshing portions 60 and 65 are disengaged, the hitting force adjusting handle 11 is freely rotated within the horizontal plane around the rear end center portion 48a of the rotation shaft 48.

  The pachinko gaming machine P1 according to the first embodiment has the above configuration. In this case, since the pachinko hall side determines a desired position of the hitting force adjusting handle 11, the desired position is set in advance for each pachinko gaming machine P1 installed in the pachinko hall. For this purpose, the front plate 6 is opened, a hand is inserted into the rear side of the mounting cover frame 10, the gripping frame portion 66 is gripped, and the pushing member 64 is moved backward as shown in the direction of the arrow in FIG. The meshing of both meshing parts 60 and 65 is released. In this state, as shown in the direction of the arrow in the figure, the hitting force adjusting handle 11 is rotated about the rear end central portion 48a of the rotation shaft 48 in the horizontal plane to determine a desired position, and the pushing is performed at that position. The member 64 is released and the meshing portions 60 and 65 are meshed again to fix the hitting force adjusting handle 11.

  This makes it easier for the player to grasp the hitting force adjustment handle 11. The player holds the handle lever 40 and rotates it to one side, whereby the drive motor 32 is driven and the motor shaft 32a rotates at a low speed. Along with this, the cam 37 is engaged with the roller 34b at the tip of the protruding arm 34a of the spring frame 33 at a predetermined interval, and the hitting bar 22 is reciprocated between the hitting ball preparation position and the hitting ball launching position. The game balls that are supplied one by one to the hit ball launch position 21a of the launch rail 21 are hit. At this time, the strength of the striking force of the game ball is adjusted by rotating the handle lever 40 to any position. In this way, it is possible to reduce the fatigue and pain of the gripping hand when used for a long time.

  Next, the pachinko gaming machine P2 according to the second embodiment will be described. The pachinko gaming machine P2 according to the second embodiment is different from the pachinko gaming machine P1 according to the first embodiment only in the structure of the mounting cover frame 10, and the other configurations are exactly the same. Only the part will be described. Further, the same parts as those of the pachinko gaming machine P1 according to the first embodiment are given the same numbers, and detailed description thereof is omitted. In the pachinko gaming machine P2 according to the second embodiment, a desired position of the hitting force adjusting handle 11 is determined by the player.

  That is, as shown in FIG. 8, the arc plate member 572 is provided with meshing portions 60 in which teeth 60a are arranged on both sides of the holding cylinder portion 59 on the front surface of the concave arc plate 582, and the meshing portion 60 is provided on the rear surface thereof. Not. Further, the mounting cover frame 102 is provided with a first front wall 102a and a second front wall 102b on the front side in the front-rear direction, respectively on both outer peripheral edges of the insertion hole 56 formed in the rear second front wall 102b. A claw member 70 is attached.

  Each claw member 70 is arranged so as to face each other, and a claw portion 70a that is pivotally attached to a horizontal shaft 72 that is interposed between a pair of support walls 71, 71 standing on the front surface of the second front wall 102b. The operating piece 73 is integrally provided at the base end portion so as to cross the horizontal shaft 72 and sharpen the tip end portion. Further, a torsion coil spring 74 is wound around the horizontal shaft 72, one end of which is engaged with the upper surface of the claw portion 70a, and the other end is fixed to the second front wall 102b. As a result, both the claw members 70 are urged toward the meshing portion 60 provided on the front side surface of the concave arc plate 582, and the distal ends are always engaged with the meshing portion 60. .

  A push button 75 is disposed on the front surface of the first front wall 102a so as to face the operation piece 73 of each claw member 70. Each push button 75 is urged so as to always protrude forward by a compression spring 76, and when the push button 75 is pushed backward, the rear end pushes the operation piece 73 of each claw member 70 backward. . Thereby, each claw member 70 pulls up the tip of the claw part 70a, and the engagement with the meshing part 60 of the concave arc plate 58 is released. For example, by pushing one push button 75, the claw portion 70a of the claw member 70 on the same side is disengaged. In this state, the concave arc plate 58 is disengaged regardless of the other claw member 70. It can turn to the claw member 70 side. Each so-called claw member 70 functions as a one-way clutch.

  Therefore, when the player attached to the second pachinko gaming machine P2 first wants to move the hitting force adjusting handle 11 to the right side, the right push button 75 is shown in the direction of the arrow in FIG. In the pressed state, the hitting force adjusting handle 11 is moved to the right side. When the finger is released from the push button 75 at a desired position, the nail members 70 and 70 are engaged with the engagement portion 60 at that position, and the hitting force adjusting handle 11 is fixed. Conversely, to move the hitting force adjustment handle 11 to the left side, the hitting force adjustment handle 11 is moved to the left side while the left push button 75 is pressed. When the finger is released from the push button 75 at a desired position, both the claw members 70 and 70 are engaged with and fixed to the engagement portion 60 at that position. Therefore, also in this case, it is possible to reduce the fatigue and pain of the gripping hand when used for a long time.

  Further, the reason why the hitting force adjusting handle 11 can be freely rotated in the horizontal plane as in the pachinko gaming machines P1 and P2 according to the first and second embodiments is also as follows. That is, in recent years, the inner diameters of the inner and outer guide rails 13a and 13b on the surface of the game board 2 are gradually increasing. As described above, when the inner and outer guide rails 13a and 13b become larger, the firing rail 21 moves closer to the center of the pachinko gaming machines P1 and P2, and accordingly, the hitting force adjusting handle 11 also moves closer to the center. However, since the ball receiving tray 7 is disposed on the front side thereof, the hitting force adjusting handle 11 collides with the ball receiving tray 7 and it is difficult to mount it. Therefore, in such a case, if the configuration as in the above embodiment is adopted, the hitting force adjusting handle 11 can be easily attached.
