JP 2002-18109 A

However, in the above conventional game medium lending system, the game medium lending machine can accept only banknotes and IC coins, and does not handle a plurality of kinds of currencies as a plurality of coins in circulation are not accepted. It is said that it can be made simple and small.
This is because game media lending machines are installed between pachinko machines in pachinko parlors, for example, because the front panel width is set as narrow as possible and the space is small. In addition, it can be considered that there is no room to arrange coins in the slot.
Therefore, a player who has only coins must move to a separately installed coin-usable game medium lending machine.

  In view of such a conventional problem, an object of the present invention is to provide a game medium rental system that can arbitrarily use banknotes, IC coins, and coins.

A gaming medium lending machine that inserts coins into which money or identification IDs are written, rents out gaming media and has a balance after the game ends, and pays out IC coins with the balance set, includes a bill insertion slot, A bill discriminator connected to a bill insertion slot, a coin slot for coins and IC coins, a coin selector for identifying coins from the coin slot, and an ID of an IC coin that has flowed down from the coin selector through a non-genuine coin path An upper distribution unit that has an upper reading unit and distributes the IC coins read by the upper reading unit to the holding channel, a holding channel that stores the IC coins distributed by the upper distributing unit, and an IC coin at the exit of the holding channel It has a holding means for holding it so that it can be paid out, and a lower reading means for reading the ID of the IC coin held in the holding means, And a lower distributing section for distributing on to either the payout or recovery, a management server capable of storing data in the management area is made to correspond to the ID of the IC coin, the game media lending system constituted,
The remaining amount setting means for storing the amount of money deposited by inserting the banknote in the management area of the management server of the ID of the IC coin held in the holding means, and when the IC coin is inserted, the upper reading means determines the ID of the management server from the ID of the inserted IC coin. A balance specifying means for confirming whether a balance exists in the ID management area, and a balance changing means for changing the balance specified by the balance specifying means to the ID of the IC coin held in the holding means,
While holding the IC coin in the holding means and reading the ID with the lower reading means, setting the management area of the management server corresponding to the ID of the held IC coin to make it possible to rent game media,
When a banknote is deposited from the lending ready state, the management area is updated and stored for each lending from the remaining amount setting means, and at the end of lending by banknote depositing, the IC coin of the holding means is paid out,
On the other hand, when the IC coin is inserted from the lending ready state, the management area is updated and stored for each loan from the balance changing means, and when the lending by the insertion of the IC coin is finished, the IC coin of the holding means is paid out,
After the IC coins are paid out, the IC coins are moved from the holding passage to the holding means and are held and awaited so that the game medium can be lent out.

If the purchase amount of the game medium until the end of the game is less than the deposit amount, the IC coin set with the remaining amount is paid out. Next time, the game medium is purchased by inserting the IC coin from the coin insertion slot. be able to.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.

The return slot 6 pays out IC coins and balance coins for which a balance is set.
The panel 2a including the return port 6 in the lower half can be opened by inserting a key into the key hole 17, and an IC coin in which a reading error has occurred can be collected from an error coin storage 62 described later.

As shown in FIG. 3, in the ball lending machine 1, a ball passage 66 connects the ball dispensing port 7 to a ball lending supply unit (not shown). A bill discriminator 20 connected to the bill insertion slot 3 (see FIG. 2) is provided at the top of the ball lending machine 1 to identify the authenticity and amount of the bill inserted from the bill insertion slot 3. When the inserted bill is a true bill, the bill is sent to a bill conveyance passage (not shown), whereas when it is a fake bill, it is returned from the bill insertion slot 3.
An insertion passage 21 is connected to the coin insertion slot 4 (see FIG. 2) for coins and IC coins, and the coins or IC coins inserted from the coin insertion slot 4 are guided to the coin selector 30.

The coin selector 30 has a receiving passage 31 for receiving coins or IC coins from the insertion passage 21, and includes first and second sensors 32 and 33 along the receiving passage 31. Then, the coins are identified by the first and second sensors, and the sorting gate 34 is switched and operated.
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the distribution gate portion. If the coin and the coin inserted from the coin insertion slot 4 of the IC coin are genuine coins, the sorting gate 34 is opened and the coins from the receiving passage 31 are guided to the first passage 35.
When the coin inserted from the coin insertion slot 4 is a fake coin or an IC coin, the sorting gate 34 is closed and guided to the second passage 36.
The first passage 35 of the coin selector 30 is connected to the true coin passage 22, and the true coin is sent out from the true coin passage 22 to a coin conveyance path (not shown). The second passage 36 is connected to the non-original coin passage 23.

The lower end of the non-genuine coin passage 23 is connected to the holding passage 24 and the fake coin return passage 25 that are branched to the left and right via the upper sorting unit 40. The upper distribution unit 40 includes an upper reader 42 that reads an ID of an IC coin and a distribution disk 44.
The distribution disk 44 has a notch recess 45 at the peripheral edge, holds the IC coin or the like that has moved in the non-genuine coin passage 23 in the notch recess 45, and rotates and holds it in one direction or in the opposite direction. The IC coins and the like that have been sent are distributed to the holding passage 24 or the fake coin return passage 25.
The IC coin held in the cutout recess 45 of the distribution disk 44 is referred to as an IC coin of the upper distribution unit as necessary. The upper reader 42 outputs the read IC coin ID to the control unit 60.
The lower end of the false coin return passage 25 is open to the return port 6.

The lower end of the holding passage 24 is connected to a collection passage 26 and an IC coin payout passage 27 that are branched to the left and right via a lower distribution section 50. The lower sorting unit 50 includes a lower reader 52 that reads an ID of an IC coin and a sorting disk 54.
The sorting disk 54 has a notch recess 55 at the peripheral edge, and holds the IC coin that has moved through the holding passage 24 in the notch recess 55.
The IC coin held in the notch recess 55 of the distribution disk 54 is referred to as an IC coin of the lower distribution unit as necessary. The lower reader 52 outputs the ID of the read IC coin to the control unit 60.
The holding passage 24 has a long passage length as a bent shape in order to hold a large number of IC coins inserted from the coin insertion slot 4.

The distribution disk 54 rotates in one direction or in the opposite direction, and distributes the IC coin held in the notch recess 55 to the IC coin payout passage 27 or the collection passage 26.
Each of the distribution disks 44 and 54 has notch recesses 45 and 55 at two symmetrical positions across the rotation axis, and the IC that has moved through the non-genuine passage 23 or the holding passage 24 every half rotation. You can hold a coin.
The collection passage 26 is connected to an error coin storage portion 62 disposed at the lower part of the ball lending machine 1, and the IC coin payout passage 27 is opened to the return port 6.
At the bottom of the ball lending machine 1, a card reader / writer 64 is installed in correspondence with the card insertion slot 5.

The controller 60 is disposed in the lower half of the ball lending machine 1 so as to overlap the holding passage 24 and the collection passage 26.
The control unit 60 is connected to the banknote discriminator 20, the upper sorting unit 40, the lower sorting unit 50, and the card reader / writer 64 through signal lines (not shown).
As a result, the bill validator 20 outputs the money amount data of the bill inserted from the bill insertion slot 3 to the control unit 60.

From the upper sorting unit 40, data obtained by reading the ID of the IC coin held in the notch recess 45 of the sorting disk 44 by the upper reader 42 is input to the control unit 60. When the ID of the IC coin can be read by the upper reader 42, the control unit 60 outputs a command to rotate the sorting disk 44 in the direction in which the IC coin is sent to the holding passage 24.
On the other hand, when the ID cannot be read by the upper reader 42, it is assumed that what is held in the notch recess 45 of the sorting disk 44 is not an IC coin but a fake coin, and the sorting disk 44 is sent in the direction to be sent to the fake coin return passage 25. A command to rotate is output.

The lower sorting unit 50 reads the ID of the IC coin held in the notch recess 55 of the sorting disk 54 by the lower reader 52 based on an instruction from the control unit 60, and outputs the ID to the control unit 60. The control unit 60 keeps the IC coin held in the lower sorting unit 50 until the IC coin needs to be paid out separately, while outputting the ID of the IC coin received from the lower reader 52 to the management server 70. The management area 72 for the ID is set.
When an error occurs in which the ID of the IC coin cannot be read by the lower reader 52, the control unit 60 outputs a command to rotate the sorting disk 54 in the direction in which the IC coin is sent out to the collection passage 26.

  From the card reader / writer 64, the amount data recorded on the membership card inserted from the card insertion slot 5 is read and input to the control unit 60, and the balance obtained by subtracting the purchase amount of the paid-out ball from the control unit 60 Data is output and written to the membership card.

FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 are flowcharts showing the flow of the control operation in the embodiment configured as described above, particularly at the time of purchasing a rented ball using banknotes, coins, and IC coins.
First, in step 100, the bill validator 20, coin selector 30, and upper sorting unit 40 of the ball lending machine 1 are in a standby state.
When a bill is inserted from the bill insertion slot 3 and deposit amount data is input from the bill discriminator 20 to the control unit 60, the process proceeds to step 101.
When coins are inserted from the coin insertion slot 4 for coins and IC coins and deposit amount data is input from the coin selector 30 to the control unit 60, the process proceeds to step 102.
When an IC coin is inserted from the coin insertion slot 4 and the ID of the IC coin is input from the upper distribution unit 40 to the control unit 60, the process proceeds to step 301.

In step 101, the control unit 60 checks whether the deposit amount is 1,000 yen or less. If the deposit amount is 1000 yen or less, the control unit 60 proceeds to step 102, and if it is more than 1000 yen, the process proceeds to step 103.
In step 102, the control unit 60 outputs a command to the ball lending supply unit to execute the ball lending process so as to pay out the lending amount corresponding to the deposit amount, and returns to the standby state.
Even when coins are inserted from the coin insertion slot 4, a ball lending process corresponding to the deposit amount is executed in this step 102.

On the other hand, in the case of high-payment, in step 103, the control unit 60 outputs the IC coin ID and the deposit amount data of the lower distribution unit 50 to the management server 70. Thereby, the management server 70 stores the deposit amount (for example, 5000 yen) in the management area 72A corresponding to the ID (ID: A) of the IC coin.
Thereafter, in step 104, the management server 70 first instructs the control unit 60 to lend the ball for 1,000 yen, and based on this, the control unit 60 outputs a command to the ball lending supply unit to execute the ball lending process. The management server 70 manages the new amount (4000 yen) obtained by subtracting the thousand yen for the ball lending from the amount stored in the management area 72A corresponding to the ID (ID: A) of the IC coin of the lower distribution unit 50. Store in the area.

Subsequently, in step 105, the management server 70 checks whether the amount stored in the management area 72A is not 0 (zero), that is, whether there is a balance. If there is a balance, the process proceeds to step 106, and if there is no balance, the process returns to the standby state.
In step 106, the management server 70 outputs the balance to the control unit 60, and the control unit 60 that has received the balance displays the balance on the balance / stored ball frequency display unit 11 as an available balance.

  In step 107, the control unit 60 checks whether or not the large payout switch 13 is turned on. When the large payout switch 13 is turned on, the control unit 60 outputs that fact to the management server 70 and returns to step 104. That is, the management server 70 instructs the control unit 60 to lend a thousand yen, and the control unit 60 executes a ball lending process based on this. The management server 70 manages the new amount (3,000 yen) obtained by subtracting 1,000 yen for the ball lending from the amount stored in the management area 72A corresponding to the ID (ID: A) of the IC coin of the lower distribution unit 50. Store in the area.

  If the high-payout switch 13 is not turned on, the process proceeds from step 107 to step 108 to check whether the return switch 8 is turned on. If the return switch 8 is not turned on, the process returns to step 107, and the check for turning on the high payout switch 13 or turning on the return switch 8 is repeated.

When the return switch 8 is turned on in the check of step 108, in step 109, the control unit 60 issues a command to the lower sorting unit 50, rotates the sorting disk 54, and holds the IC coin held in the notch recess 55. The IC coin payout passage 27 is paid out.
In step 110, the control unit 60 next receives the ID (ID: B) of the IC coin held on the distribution disk 54 of the lower distribution unit 50 from the lower reader 52 and outputs the ID to the management server 70. After setting a new management area 72B, the process returns to the standby state.

In step 301 when an IC coin is inserted, the control unit 60 outputs the IC coin ID (ID: C) of the upper sorting unit 40 read by the upper reader 42 to the management server 70.
In step 302, the management server 70 searches for a management area corresponding to the ID (ID: C) of the inserted IC coin, and the amount stored in the management area 72C is not 0 (zero), that is, the balance is Check if it exists. If there is a balance, the process proceeds to step 303, and if there is no balance, the process proceeds to step 305.

In step 303, the management server 70 moves the balance to the management area 72 </ b> D corresponding to the IC coin ID (ID: D) of the lower sorting unit 50.
That is, as shown in FIG. 7, when the amount stored in the management area 72C corresponding to the ID (ID: C) of the inserted IC coin is, for example, 3000 yen, it is originally stored as indicated by an arrow. The above-mentioned 3000 yen is stored in the management area 72D corresponding to the IC coin ID (ID: D) of the lower distribution unit 50 whose value is 0 yen, the stored value in the management area 72C is rewritten to 0 yen, and the balance Will be replaced.

In the next step 304, the control unit 60 rotates the distribution disk 44 and sends the IC coin whose balance of the upper distribution unit is zero to the holding path 24.
As a result, when the IC coins inserted from the coin insertion slot 4 enter the holding passage 24 and are held, the balance is set to zero.
Thereafter, the process proceeds to a ball lending process in step 104, and thereafter, the process is the same as the process at the time of high deposit.
On the other hand, in step 305 in the case where there is no balance in the inserted IC coins, the control unit 60 sends the IC coins from the upper sorting unit 40 to the holding passage 24 and then returns to the standby state.

As described above, in the control of this system, when a game is finished without consuming all of the deposit amount with respect to the large deposit, an IC coin is paid out, and the management server 70 is associated with the ID of the IC coin. Since the remaining amount is stored, the next time IC coins are inserted, the balance is confirmed based on the ID, and it becomes possible to purchase a ball.
Further, the balance of the inserted IC coin is made zero in the management server 70, and is instead replaced with a management area corresponding to the ID of another IC coin held in the lower distribution unit 50 for the next payout. Since the IC coin whose balance is set to zero is held in the holding passage 24, that is, in the ball lending machine 1, an IC coin having an ID different from the inserted IC coin is paid out.

If a coin or a bill of 1,000 yen or less is further inserted in a state where the balance is displayed on the balance / stored ball frequency display unit 11, a loan amount corresponding to the inserted amount is paid out in step 102.
Further, when a higher-priced banknote or IC coin is inserted in a state where the balance is displayed on the balance / stored ball frequency display unit 11, the fact is output from the control unit 60 to the management server 70. The ball lending for 1,000 yen is performed at 104 or less, and the difference is added to the balance of the management area corresponding to the ID of the IC coin held in the lower sorting unit 50.
However, when a predetermined large amount of money is displayed as a balance on the balance / stored ball frequency display unit 11, it is possible to set so as not to accept further insertion of banknotes.

  The settlement machine 75 also includes a reader unit (not shown) that reads the ID of the IC coin, and outputs the ID of the IC coin inserted into the settlement machine 75 to the management server 70. Since the management server 70 notifies the settlement machine 75 of the remaining amount stored in the management area 72 corresponding to the ID, the settlement machine 75 pays out the remaining amount as a settlement money. The management server 70 notifies the balance 75 of the balance, and then rewrites the balance of the management area corresponding to the ID to zero.

In the present embodiment, the lower distribution unit 50 constitutes the holding means in the invention. The lower reader 52, the control unit 60, and the management server 70 related to the processing of step 103 in the flowchart of FIG. 5 constitute a remaining amount setting unit. In particular, the lower reader 52 corresponds to the first reading unit.
Further, the upper reader 42, the control unit 60, and the management server 70 related to the processing of step 302 constitute a balance specifying means, and step 303 constitutes a balance changing means. In particular, the upper reader 42 corresponds to a second reading means. .

The embodiments are configured as described above, the bill insertion slot 3, which has a coin slot 4 of the coin and the IC coin, the IC coin to the outlet of the holding passages 24 that hold the IC coin from the coin insertion slot 4 Is provided so as to be able to pay out, and the balance obtained by subtracting the purchase amount of the lent from the deposit amount from the bill insertion slot 3 or the coin insertion slot 4 is made to correspond to the IC coin held in the lower distribution section 50. And the lower distribution unit 50 pays out the IC coin whose remaining amount is set by the storage in the management server 70. The next time, the IC coin that has been paid out is loaded from the coin insertion slot 4. By throwing in, you can purchase a ball. Since the coin insertion slot 4 is also connected to the coin selector 30, it is possible to purchase balls using three types of bills, coins and IC coins using the two bill insertion slot 3 and coin insertion slot 4.

The balance of the IC coins inserted from the coin insertion slot 4 is specified when entering the holding passage 24, and the management server 70 replaces and stores the balance with the IC coins held in the lower sorting unit 50 at the exit of the holding passage 24. Therefore, even if a plurality of IC coins are held in the holding passage 24, the balance of the inserted IC coins is reliably reflected in the next IC coin to be paid out.

In particular, an ID for identifying each IC coin is written in the IC coin, and the balance setting is provided with a lower reader 52 for reading the ID of the IC coin held in the lower distribution unit 50, and the management server 70 corresponds to the read ID. The management area is set and the balance is stored in this management area. The balance is specified by assigning the ID of the IC coin from the coin insertion slot 4 to the upper distribution section 40 at the entrance of the holding passage 24. An upper reader 42 to be read is provided, and the storage value of the management area of the management server 70 corresponding to the read ID is set as the balance of the IC coin, and the balance reassignment is management corresponding to the ID read by the upper reader 42. The storage value of the area is stored in the management area corresponding to the ID of the IC coin held in the lower sorting unit 50 and is read by the upper reader 42. Since the stored value in the management area corresponding to the fringed ID was assumed to be zero, it is not necessary to store money data in the IC coin, there is no fear of bad money data rewriting.

The embodiment has been described by taking a ball lending system of a pachinko store as an example. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and can be applied to medals and other game medium lending systems in addition to pachinko balls.
In the embodiment, if the ID is written in the IC coin and the amount data is stored in the management server 70, the amount data is stored in the IC coin itself if the verification data for preventing fraud is used together. It can also be written.
