  When the first touch sensor constituting the first operation detection device 2 outputs a detection signal, it is determined in step 103 whether or not there is a steering wheel rotation operation. If there is a handle rotation operation, in Step 104, a game ball is prepared for launching in accordance with the handle rotation operation amount.

  When the game ball is prepared for launch corresponding to the rotational operation amount of the handle, it is determined in step 105 whether or not a detection signal is output from the second touch sensor that constitutes the second operation detection device 3. Is done.

  If a detection signal is output from the second touch sensor that constitutes the second operation detection device 3, in step 106, the launch of the game ball is started and the launch control process is ended.

  If a detection signal is not output from the second touch sensor that constitutes the second operation detection device 3, in step 107, the second operation detection device 3 is not activated, and therefore, a game ball is launched. Control to stop is performed.

  When the control for stopping the launch of the game ball is performed, the notification lamp of the notification means 5 is turned on as the launch stop control is in progress.

  Next, the operation procedure of the game ball launch control when a special game state such as a jackpot occurs during the game will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

  In step 201, when it is detected that a special gaming state such as a jackpot has occurred, in step 202, the firing stop control due to the non-operation of the second operation detection device 3 is invalidated. When it is not detected that a special gaming state such as a jackpot has occurred, the above-described normal launch control is performed.

  In step 203, it is determined whether or not the player has operated the handle operating unit 1. Return if there is no handle operation. If there is a handle operation, in step 204, the first touch sensor that constitutes the first operation detection device 2 outputs a detection signal.

  When the touch sensor constituting the first operation detection device 2 outputs a detection signal, it is determined in step 205 whether there is a rotation operation of the handle. If there is a steering wheel rotation operation, in Step 206, a game ball is prepared for launching corresponding to the steering wheel rotation amount.

  When the game ball is prepared for launch corresponding to the amount of rotation of the handle, in step 207, the launch of the game ball is continued. When the jackpot ends, in step 208, the end of the jackpot is detected and the firing control process ends.

  Further, FIG. 5 shows the operation procedure of the time measuring device control process that allows the operation or contact with the second operation detecting device 3 of the left hand, which is the other hand, to be avoided if it is within a certain period for eating and drinking or smoking. It demonstrates according to the flowchart shown by this.

  In step 301, it is determined whether or not there is a handle operation of the handle operation unit 1 by the player. Return if there is no handle operation. If there is a handle operation, in step 302, the second touch sensor constituting the first operation detection device 2 outputs a detection signal.

  When the touch sensor constituting the first operation detection device 2 outputs a detection signal, it is determined in step 303 whether or not there is a rotation operation of the handle. If there is a rotation operation of the handle, in step 304, the game ball is prepared for launching corresponding to the rotation operation amount of the handle.

  When the game ball is prepared for launch corresponding to the amount of rotation of the handle, in step 305, a detection signal is output from the second touch sensor constituting the second operation detection device 3 for the left hand. It is determined whether or not.

  When a detection signal is output from the second touch sensor that constitutes the second operation detection device 3, the operation continuation time is counted using a clock pulse and a timer. In step 307, a game ball is launched. Be started.

  In step 308, it is determined whether the detection signal is continuously output from the second touch sensor constituting the second operation detection device 3, and when the detection signal from the second touch sensor is not output. In Step 309, it is determined whether or not the operation duration time of the second touch sensor has been, for example, 30 seconds or more. In Step 310, the notification lamp 5 for notifying that the second operation detection device 3 has not been operated is turned on. To do.

  In step 311, counting of the non-detection time of the detection signal from the second touch sensor of the second operation detection device 3 is started, and in step 312, the second operation detection device 3 is not activated. Disable fire stop control.

  In step 313, the game ball is continuously launched. In step 314, it is determined whether the second touch sensor has been re-operated. In step 315, the second touch sensor has not been re-operated. Is used to determine whether the non-operation time of the second touch sensor is less than a certain time, for example, 30 seconds.

  When the non-operation time of the second touch sensor becomes 30 seconds or more, in step 317, the notification lamp 5 during the emission stop control is turned on, and in step 318, the second operation detection device 3 is not operated. Control for stopping the launch of the game ball is performed, and a normal launch control process is performed.

  When the detection signal from the second touch sensor is continuously output in step 308, the game ball is continuously launched in step 316, and the control processing of the time measuring device is ended.

  In step 309, even if the detection signal from the second touch sensor is output, if the detection signal is continuously detected in less than 30 seconds, in step 317, the notification lamp 5 during the emission stop control is displayed. Is turned on, and since the second operation detection device 3 is not activated, control for stopping the launch of the game ball is performed, and a normal launch control process is performed.

  In the pachinko gaming machine according to the first embodiment having the above-described configuration and performing the above-described operation, the first operation detection device 2 disposed so as to be operable with the player's right hand includes the handle operation unit 1. The second operation detection device 3 disposed in a position different from the handle operation unit 1 detects the presence / absence of direct operation by the player's right hand. Since the operation with the other hand that has not been operated is detected and the first and second operation detection devices 2 and 3 detect the game ball, the game ball can be launched. Or an action that affects the movement of the game ball is prevented.

  Further, in the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment, the determination unit 4 determines the operation with both the left and right hands based on the detection signals of the first and second operation detection devices 2 and 3, so that the other hand It has the effect of preventing acts that strike the board or affect the movement of the game ball.

  That is, the pachinko gaming machine according to the first embodiment is configured so that the left hand, which can be freely used in the conventional pachinko gaming machine, is also used (contacted) when the game ball is launched. It is possible to obtain an effect of preventing annoying acts such as the use of radio waves to prevent goto action and the player from hitting the board or using a mobile phone.

  From a different point of view, the game itself is a novel game style that is a novel game style of “pachinko's new game style that always uses both hands while playing”.

  Most of the goto acts mentioned above are such that the handle is operated with the right hand and the left hand is used for the work, and the game ball is not fired only by the operation of the right hand. In the example, there is an advantage that an illegal game cannot be performed while performing a god act with the left hand.

  In addition, when the style of “always play with both hands” becomes commonplace, just playing while doing some other work with the left hand will be a very prominent act, which helps early detection of fraud, It also has the effect of preventing annoying games such as fraudulent games that try to win illegal prizes by hitting or shaking the game table, games while talking on mobile phones and games while hitting mail can get.

  In addition, when a special gaming state occurs and a lot of game balls are paid out, it seems that it is necessary to deal with the payout ball with the left hand. In this case, even if the left hand operation sensor is not detected, the operation of the handle It is possible to launch a game ball alone.

  Further, in the pachinko gaming machine of the first embodiment, the detection signal from the second operation detection device arranged to detect the operation by the other hand is based on the clock pulse and the timing signal from the timer. Even if the game ball is turned off within a certain period of time, it is possible to use the other hand for drinking juice or smoking cigarettes by continuously configuring the game ball.

  In addition, the pachinko gaming machine of the first embodiment is provided with a timer function in the left-hand operation sensor unit as an effective means, so that the game ball can be detected without the detection of the left-hand sensor for a certain period of time or longer. By making it impossible to fire, it becomes impossible to operate the sensor unit 3 with the left hand for a moment and then perform a go-to action, and this timer device also enables measurement of operation non-detection time It allows the left hand to be free for a short period of time for smoking or eating and drinking.

  The basic configuration of the pachinko gaming machine of the second embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment described above, but since the control operation procedure is different, the differences will be mainly described.

  When the player does not perform an operation when starting the game, as shown in FIG. 6, in step 401, the launch control notification lamp is lit red. Of course, game balls are not fired.

  Next, when the player rotates the firing handle 1 in steps 402, 403, and 404, in step 405, the gaming machine prepares to launch a game ball with an intensity corresponding to the operation amount of the firing handle 1.

  At this stage, since the touch sensor 3 is not detected in step 406, the symbol display device 101 does not detect the left hand touch sensor 3 in step 409, and an operation method for canceling the firing stop control is performed. Is displayed. In the next step 410, the firing control notification lamp blinks red.

  Next, in step 406, when the touch sensor is touched with the left hand, the launch of the game ball is started in step 407. At this time, in step 408, the launch control notification lamp is lit in blue.

  In addition, when the launched game ball wins the start winning opening 102, the symbol displayed on the symbol display device 101 starts to change, and when the symbol stops in a specific manner, it enters a special game state such as a big hit, but the special game. Since a large number of balls can be expected during the state, it is preferable that the left hand can be used for the purpose of a ball discharge process or the like, and the firing stop control at that time will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

  When a special gaming state occurs in step 501, next, in step 502, the firing stop control due to the absence of detection of the touch sensor 3 is invalidated. At this time, in step 503, the firing control notification lamp blinks blue. It becomes a state.

  Next, in Steps 504, 505, and 506, when the player rotates the firing handle 1, in Step 507, the gaming machine prepares to launch a game ball with an intensity corresponding to the operation amount of the firing handle 1.

  In step 508, the launch of the game ball is started. In step 509, when the special game state ends, the control is switched to the launch stop control in the normal game state.

  In addition, the player wants a light operation such as drinking juice or smoking cigarettes several times during the game. If the game ball is stopped from launching each time, not only will the operation of the game stand worsen, The pachinko gaming machine according to the second embodiment includes a touch sensor unit in order to enable the above-mentioned light operation to be performed while maintaining the state where the game ball is launched. 3 is provided with a time measuring function, and control of the time measuring function will be described with reference to a flowchart shown in FIG.

  As described above, when the player rotates the firing handle 1 in steps 601, 602, and 603, in step 604, the gaming machine prepares to launch a game ball with an intensity corresponding to the operation amount of the firing handle 1. .

  At this stage, since there is no detection of the touch sensor 3 in step 605, the process moves to step 606 and the symbol display device 101 has no detection of the touch sensor 3 for the left hand and an operation method for releasing the firing stop control. Is displayed and in the next step 607, the emission control notification lamp blinks in red.

  Next, in step 608, the time measurement function of the touch sensor unit 3 touched with the left hand is activated and measurement of the detection duration time is started. In step 609, the launch of the game ball is started.

  In step 610, the firing control notification lamp is lit in blue. In step 612, when the detection duration time reaches 30 seconds, the launch control notification lamp remains lit in blue, and in step 613, the symbol display device 101 is notified that a break is possible, thereby informing the player. .

  Therefore, when the player interrupts the continuous operation of the touch sensor 3 in step 611, in step 612, if the continuous operation time of the touch sensor 3 so far is 30 seconds or more, in steps 614, 615, 616, 617 Even if the left hand attached to the touch sensor unit 3 is separated from the sensor unit 3, the game ball is continuously launched.

  The time measurement function is activated to measure the undetected state duration, and the symbol display device 101 indicates that the touch sensor unit 3 is not detected and the remaining time for disabling the firing stop control because the touch sensor unit 3 is not detected. To the player.

  In steps 618 and 619, if the player touches the touch sensor unit 3 again with the left hand within the remaining time for disabling the firing stop control, the player returns to step 608 and must touch the touch sensor unit 3 again within the time. In step 620, the launch of the game ball is stopped, and the symbol display device 101 displays that there is no detection of the touch sensor 3 for the left hand and the operation method for canceling the firing stop control. The control notification lamp blinks red.

  In Step 612, the process also proceeds to Step 620 when the continuous operation time of the touch sensor 3 is less than 30 seconds. In step 611, if the player continues to operate the touch sensor 3, the game ball is continuously launched in step 622.

  The slot game machine according to the third embodiment is an application of the present invention to a slot game machine. As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the first operation detecting device 2 is arranged on the lever portion 1 in the slot machine. In addition, a touch sensor or the like as the second operation detection device 3 is disposed at a position where it can be visually recognized by a surrounding person at the center or lower part of the casing of the slot machine, and a bet switch 33 or the like as an operation means It is to be added.

  The control operation of the slot game machine according to the third embodiment will be described below with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

  In step 701, it is determined whether or not the game medium is inserted and the game start condition is satisfied. If the game start condition is satisfied, in step 702, the left hand touch sensor as the second operation detection device 3 is detected. It is determined whether it is operating.

  If it is determined that the left hand touch sensor is activated, it is determined in step 703 whether or not the player has operated the operation lever 1, that is, whether or not there is a detection signal output from the first operation detection device.

  If it is determined that there is a detection signal output from the first operation detection device, a random number is acquired in step 704, a privilege determination process is performed in step 705, and reel fluctuation starts in step 706. End.

  If it is determined in step 702 that the left-hand touch sensor as the second operation detection device 3 is not activated, in step 707, the control for invalidating the lever operation due to the non-operation of the second operation detection device 3 is performed. In step 708, the notification lamp 5 is lit during the control in which the lever operation is invalid.

  The slot game machine according to the third embodiment having the above-described configuration and performing the above-described control operation is configured such that the operation of the lever 1 becomes invalid if no operation is detected in the second operation detection device 3. The effect of preventing goto acts such as using the hands to experience the sensation is obtained.

  In the slot game machine according to the third embodiment, since the operation means such as the bet switch is also provided at the place where the second operation detecting device 3 is provided, the left hand is always kept at a fixed place.
