The entertainment members 60 and 34 are operated in accordance with the symbol variation game to be performed to improve the interest of the game. That is, the frame-shaped main body 18 a of the decorative member 18 functions as the main body of the effect device 26.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 5, the effect device 26 is fixed to the frame-shaped main body 18 a and fixedly mounted on the lower side of the fixed decorative body 28, and operates in a plurality of directions. This is basically composed of a possible production movable body 30 and an actuating means 32 for operating the production movable body 30. In the embodiment, the fixed decorative body 28 is similar to the cover of a carton box, is formed in a box shape that opens downward, and is attached to the frame-shaped main body 18a via a plurality of bosses 28a provided on the rear surface. Screwed. The fixed ornament 28 is inclined downward by a predetermined angle toward the front side so that the character “Thousand boxes” is drawn on the upper surface of the fixed ornament 28 and the characters “Thousand boxes” are visible to the front side, that is, the player. It is fixed to the frame-shaped main body 18a in such a posture.

  The operating means 32 is driven and controlled by a second effect member 34 that can swing in the vertical direction below the fixed decorative body 28 and a control means (not shown) disposed at a required position of the pachinko machine. A motor 36 as a driving means that is disposed in the main body 18 a and operates the second effect member 34, and is linked to the motor 36 and the second effect member 34, and the driving force of the motor 36 is connected to the second effect member 34. It is basically composed of transmission means 38 that transmits to and swings. In the embodiment, the second effect member 34 is similar to the main body of a thousand-thousand box paired with the fixed decorative body 28, and is formed in a box shape that opens upward as shown in FIGS. On the rear wall 34a of the second effect member 34, holding portions 40, 42 extending rearward are provided so as to project apart from each other in the left-right direction, and the operating shaft 44 and the pin 46 inserted through the both holding portions 40, 42 are provided. However, pivotally supported by the bearing portion 18c of the frame-shaped main body 18a, the second effect member 34 is attached to the frame-shaped main body 18a so as to be swingable (reciprocating) in the vertical direction. Note that the operating shaft 44 inserted into the holding portion 40 on one side (left side in FIG. 2 in the embodiment) is non-rotatably attached to the holding portion 40, and is first rotated by forward and reverse rotation of the operating shaft 44. The two effect members 34 are configured to swing integrally. Further, the second effect member 34 is moved by the motor 36 and the transmission means 38 from the upper standby position (see FIG. 5A) close to the fixed decorative body 28 and the release position separated downward (see FIG. 5B). ) Is set to be swingable.

  2 and 3, the transmission means 38 is composed of a cam member 48 fixed to the output shaft of the motor 36 and rotating integrally therewith, and a lever body 50 connected to the operating shaft 44. Is done. The cam member 48 is configured by projecting a cam portion 54 on a surface of the disk portion 52 having a required diameter facing the second effect member 34. The lever body 50 is attached so that one end portion in the longitudinal direction thereof rotates integrally with the operating shaft 44 and the other end portion faces the rotation locus of the cam portion 54 in the cam member 48. A connecting portion 50 a that can contact the outer periphery of the cam portion 54 is provided. That is, the cam member 48 is rotated by the motor 36 and the cam portion 54 contacts the connecting portion 50a, whereby the second effect member 34 in the release position is tilted toward the standby position, and the cam portion 54 is separated from the connecting portion 50a. Thus, the second effect member 34 at the standby position is configured to tilt to the release position by its own weight.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the cam portion 54 is connected to an arcuate cam surface 54a having the same diameter and extending in the circumferential direction from the rotation center of the cam member 48, and one end in the circumferential direction of the cam surface 54a. Thus, the push-up surface 54b is curved so that the diameter gradually decreases, and the separation surface 54c is connected to the other circumferential end of the cam surface 54a and extends in the substantially radial direction. Then, the cam member 48 rotates so that the cam portion 54 comes into contact with the connecting portion 50a of the lever body 50 disposed on the second effect member 34 facing the release position from the push-up surface 54b side (see FIG. 4). The second effect member 34 is smoothly tilted from the release position toward the standby position. In addition, the second effect member 34 is set to be held at the standby position in a state where the connecting portion 50a is in contact with the cam surface 54a, and the connecting portion 50a is separated from the cam surface 54a from the separation surface 54c side. The two effect members 34 are configured to tilt from the standby position to the release position all at once. In addition, the second effect member 34 is abbreviated between a standby position and a release position by rotating the motor 36 in a predetermined angle range in the forward and reverse directions in a state where the connecting portion 50a is in contact with the push-up surface 54b. An effect of swinging up and down at an intermediate position is possible.

  As shown in FIG. 4, a slit 52a is formed at a predetermined position in the disk portion 52 of the cam member 48, and an origin sensor 56 capable of detecting the slit 52a is disposed in the frame-shaped main body 18a. As the origin sensor 56, for example, a photoelectric sensor including a light emitting portion and a light receiving portion is adopted, and when the slit 52a arrives between the light emitting portion and the light receiving portion, the origin position of the cam member 48 is detected, A detection signal is output to the control means. In the embodiment, the position of the slit 52a is set so that the origin sensor 56 detects the slit 52a in a state where the connecting portion 50a is in contact with the cam surface 54a of the cam portion 54. Then, the control means stops the motor 36 based on the detection signal from the origin sensor 56, so that the second effect member 34 is held at the standby position. As the origin sensor 56, a non-contact type sensor such as a magnetic type or a contact type sensor such as a limit switch may be appropriately employed instead of the photoelectric sensor as in the embodiment.

  As shown in FIGS. 2, 3, and 5, the effect movable body 30 includes a support member 58 made of an elastic leaf spring, and a first effect member (effect member) 60 loosely fitted to the support member 58. And basically consists of In the embodiment, the two effect movable bodies 30 and 30 are arranged apart from each other in the left-right direction. However, since the basic configuration is the same, only the configuration of one effect movable body 30 will be described. The same members of the other effect movable body 30 will be described with the same reference numerals.

  The support member 58 has a rear end portion positioned and fixed to the frame-shaped main body 18a, and extends forward by a predetermined length. The front end support portion 58a has the rear end portion as a fulcrum. It is configured to be swingable (reciprocating) in the vertical direction. The support member 58 is inserted from the outside into a through hole 34c formed in the bottom wall 34b of the second effect member 34 so that the support portion 58a faces the inner side of the second effect member 34. (See FIG. 5). A fixture 62 is detachably disposed on the support portion 58 a, and the first effect member 60 is attached via the fixture 62. The mounting tool 62 is inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to a direction intersecting with the swinging direction of the support member 58, in the embodiment, the extending direction of the support member 58 in a state where the rear end portion is fixed to the frame-shaped main body 18a. A connecting portion 64 having a through hole 64a extending in the front-rear direction is provided. Note that the fixture 62 may be provided integrally with the support member 58, and in this case, the fixture 62 becomes a support portion.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the first effect member 60 imitates an oval. In the embodiment, the first effect member 60 is formed in a state where a plurality of oval overlaps in the front and rear. A support shaft 66 extends on the back surface of the first effect member 60, and the support shaft 66 is rotatably inserted into the through hole 64a of the connecting portion 64. Specifically, by inserting a locking tool 67 such as an E-ring at the front end portion of the support shaft 66 that is inserted into the through hole 64a from the front side of the connecting portion 64 and protrudes to the rear side of the connecting portion 64. The first effect member 60 is attached to the support member 58. That is, in a state in which the first effect member 60 is attached to the support member 58, the support shaft 66 extends in an oblique front-rear direction intersecting with the swinging direction (vertical direction) of the support member 58, and the support shaft The first effect member 60 rotatably attached to the fixture 62 via 66 is configured to be able to swing in the left-right direction, which is a direction different from the swinging direction of the support member 58. Here, loose fitting, which is an attachment state of the support member 58 and the first effect member 60, refers to a state in which the first effect member 60 can operate in a plurality of directions with respect to the support member 58. In the embodiment, operation is possible in the vertical and horizontal directions.

  The support shaft 66 is configured to be allowed to move in the axial direction with respect to the connecting portion 64. That is, the spacing between the back surface of the first effect member 60 facing the front surface of the connecting portion 64 and the locking tool 67 is set to be larger than the front-rear direction dimensions of the connecting portion 64, and the support shaft 66 passes by the difference between these dimensions. It can move along the hole 64a. Although the support shaft 66 of the embodiment does not extend straight in the front-rear direction, since it faces generally front-rear, the axial direction of the support shaft 66 will be referred to as the front-rear direction in the following description. Therefore, the first effect member 60 of the embodiment can be operated in the front-rear direction in addition to the up-down direction and the left-right direction.

  As shown in FIG. 5 (a), the first effect member 60 loosely fitted to the support portion 58a of the support member 58 faces a position sandwiched between the fixed decoration body 28 and the second effect member 34, and In a state where the second effect member 34 faces the standby position, a part of the first effect member 60 that is lower than the position where the support shaft 66 is disposed is exposed to the front side. Further, at the standby position of the second effect member 34, the first effect member 60 is pushed upward by the front wall 34d of the second effect member 34, and the support member 58 is elastically deformed to store the urging force. It is set as follows. Then, when the second effect member 34 is tilted to the release position by the actuating means 32, the urging force of the support member 58 is released, and the first effect member 60 moves downward by its own weight, thereby the first effect. The member 60 swings up and down.

  Here, the support shaft 66 is provided at a position deviated upward from the center of gravity position of the first effect member 60, and the back surface of the first effect member 60 is deviated from the center of gravity position to either the left or right side. An engaging portion 60a that can engage with the front wall 34d of the second effect member 34 is provided at the position. Then, in a state where the engaging portion 60a is engaged with the front wall 34d of the second effect member 34 facing the standby position, the first effect member 60 has a line connecting the center of gravity and the axis of the support shaft 66 on the front side. It is set to be diagonal in the left-right direction when viewed from the side. Accordingly, when the second effect member 34 tilts from the standby position to the release position and the first effect member 60 moves downward, a force that rotates the first effect member 60 with the support shaft 66 as a fulcrum acts. The first effect member 60 swings in the left-right direction.

(Effects of Example)
Next, the operation of the gaming machine according to the above-described embodiment will be described. The second effect member 34 is held at the standby position shown in FIG. 5A, and the support member 58 of the effect movable body 30 is elastically deformed to store the urging force. And The connecting portion 50a of the lever body 50 is in contact with the cam surface 54a of the cam portion 54 as shown in FIG.

  When a pachinko ball that has been launched into the game area 14 of the game board 10 wins the starting prize-winning tool 20, a required symbol variation game is played on the symbol display device 16. When the motor 36 operates and the cam member 48 rotates based on the required control conditions, the lever body 50 that has been in contact with the cam surface 54a of the cam portion 54 as shown in FIG. The connecting portion 50a is separated from the cam surface 54a, the lever body 50 tilts, and the second effect member 34 tilts downward with the operating shaft 44 and the pin 46 as fulcrums. At this time, since the connecting portion 50a is separated from the cam surface 54a from the side of the separation surface 54c extending in the radial direction of the cam portion 54, the second effect member 34 tilts from the standby position to the release position all at once. 5 (b), the first effect member 60 pushed up by the second effect member 34 moves downward by its own weight, and the urging force of the support member 58 is released, so that the first effect member 60 moves downward vigorously. Then, the first effect member 60 moved downward is moved upward due to the elasticity of the support member 58, and further moved downward, that is, swings up and down. In addition, the first effect member 60 in which the engaging portion 60a moves away from the front wall 34d of the second effect member 34 is moved downward, based on the arrangement position of the support shaft 66 and the engaging portion 60a. Since the rotating force acts, the first effect member 60 swings in the left-right direction. As described above, in the effect device 26 according to the embodiment, as the motor 36 is operated to tilt the second effect member 34, the first effect member 60 moves in the left-right direction in addition to the vertical swing. Since it also swings, the visual effect is improved and the fun of the game can be increased. In addition, the first effect member 60 can be operated in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction by a single motor 36, and the number of members can be minimized to reduce the manufacturing cost and control. It will be easy.

  In addition, by adopting a leaf spring as the support member 58, the first effect member 60 can operate to vibrate and have a reverberation as compared with the case where the first effect member 60 is simply reciprocated. Because it is possible, the interest of the game is further improved. Moreover, it can be expected that the operation of the first effect member 60 is irregular due to the elasticity of the leaf spring, and the effect of the effect can be enhanced.

  In the embodiment, the first effect member 60 is configured to be movable in the front-rear direction with respect to the support member 58. Therefore, when the first effect member 60 vibrates up and down and left and right, the effect member 60 moves back and forth. It also moves in the direction, and the action becomes various and the fun of the game can be improved.

  When the push-up surface 54b of the cam portion 54 comes into contact with the connecting portion 50a of the lever body 50 disposed on the second effect member 34 facing the release position by rotation of the cam member 48, The second effect member 34 tilts upward from the release position. In the process in which the second effect member 34 tilts upward, the front wall 34d of the second effect member 34 contacts the first effect member 60 from below and pushes it up, and the support member 58 is elastically deformed. The When the second effect member 34 reaches the standby position, the slit 52a formed in the disk portion 52 of the cam member 48 is detected by the origin sensor 56 (state of FIG. 4A), and the control means Thus, the motor 36 is controlled to stop. As a result, the effect movable body 30 is held in a state where the first effect member 60 is sandwiched between the fixed decorative body 28 and the second effect member 34 and the support member 58 is elastically deformed to store the urging force. Is done.

  The motor 36 is controlled in accordance with a symbol variation game performed by the symbol display device 16, and the cam member 48 is stopped by rotating once, stopped by a plurality of rotations, or the cam portion 54. In the state in which the connecting portion 50a of the lever body 50 is in contact with the push-up surface 54b in FIG. When the motor 36 is rotated forward and backward by a predetermined angle, the second effect member 34 swings up and down at a substantially intermediate position between the standby position and the release position, and accordingly, the first effect member 60 is also moved up and down and Since it will move left and right or back and forth, the interest of the game will increase.
