Based on the control signal instructing the corresponding launch intensity, the launcher 452 and the launch motor 452 that drives the launcher are controlled, and the ball feeder 453 that feeds the ball from the reservoir 144 to the launch rail is controlled.

  The power management unit 500 converts the AC power supplied from the outside to the pachinko machine 100 into a direct current, converts it into a predetermined voltage, and controls each unit such as the main control unit 300 and the payout control unit 400 and each device such as the payout device 402. To supply. Further, the power management unit 500 is a power storage device (for example, for supplying power to a predetermined part (for example, the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300) for a predetermined period (for example, 10 days) even after the power supply from the outside is cut off. Capacitor) and electric power supplied to a predetermined component (for example, the entire basic circuit 302 of the main control unit 300) is smaller than that of the power storage device, and is supplied to static electricity noise, human error, and a game table. The battery further includes a power storage device (for example, a capacitor) for supplementing a certain amount of power when the power fluctuates and decreases due to a decrease in power. With this power storage device, even if the power supplied to a predetermined component (for example, the main control unit 300) becomes unstable at the time of power interruption, power recovery, etc., the predetermined component can operate stably to some extent. It is composed. In addition, the power supply board constituting the power management unit 500 is provided with an operation unit (RAM clear switch) that can be operated by an amusement shop clerk and the operation unit is detected when the power is turned on. In this case, a RAM clear signal for instructing initialization of the RAMs 308 and 358 is output to the basic circuits 302, 352, and 402 of each control unit.

<General prize opening>
Next, the structure of the above-described general winning opening 122 will be described in detail. FIG. 5A is an exploded perspective view showing the components of the general winning opening 122 in an exploded state, and FIG. 5B is an external perspective view showing the assembled components of the general winning opening 122.

  The general winning port 122 includes a discharge passage unit 600 fixed to the main body of the pachinko machine 100, a winning port unit 602 fixed to the discharge passage unit 600, and a winning port so as to cover the front surface of the winning port unit 602. A winning opening cover 604 attached to the unit 602 is used. Further, the discharge passage unit 600 is formed with a discharge passage 600 </ b> A for guiding a ball that has entered the winning opening unit 602 to the back side of the pachinko machine 100.

  Hereinafter, with reference to FIGS. 6 to 9, the winning opening unit 602 which is a component of the general winning opening 122 will be described in detail.
