One type of pachinko machine has a game board with a start port, a design variation display, a big prize device, etc., and the design variation display is based on the jackpot random number acquired when the game ball wins the game. Display special symbols in a variable manner. Then, when the special symbol stops at a predetermined symbol, a jackpot advantageous to the player (hereinafter referred to as “type 1 jackpot”) is executed.

  The two types of pachinko machines are pachinko machines called “hikoki” or “wings”, etc., and a variable winning device with a pair of blades (movable pieces) is provided on the game board and started. When a game ball wins in the mouth, the solenoid operates to open and close the blades of the variable winning device once or twice. The blades of the variable winning device are configured to capture and guide the game balls flowing down the game board surface. A specific area called a V zone is provided inside the variable winning device, and a big hit is generated when a winning game ball passes through the specific area. In the jackpot state, a jackpot of a predetermined number of rounds (up to 16 rounds) (hereinafter referred to as “two kinds of jackpots”) is executed in accordance with the contents of the winning jackpot. At this time, as one round game, the blades of the variable winning device are continuously opened or closed until a winning of a predetermined number of game balls is detected for a predetermined period or a predetermined number of times (for example, 18 times). Play a game. Thereafter, similar round games are repeated up to a predetermined number of rounds.

A type 1 and type 2 pachinko machine is a pachinko machine that has the functions of the type 1 and type 2 described above. When a game ball wins a starting hole, it acquires a big hit random number and acquires the big hit Based on the random number, the special symbol of the symbol variation indicator is displayed in a variable manner.
When the value of the jackpot random number wins a predetermined jackpot, a one-type jackpot game is executed. On the other hand, when the value of the jackpot random number is won at a predetermined small hit, the blades of the variable winning device are opened or closed once or twice, and the game ball that has won a prize inside the variable winning device passes through the V zone. Two kinds of big hit games are executed.
One type and two types of pachinko machines include a time-saving game function (hereinafter referred to as “time-saving game”) that increases the probability of establishment of a special symbol start condition. In a pachinko gaming machine equipped with a short-time game function, as a variable winning device that can change from a closed state where a game ball is difficult to enter to an open state where a game ball is easy to enter, in addition to a start port that is always open, for example, An electric tulip (hereinafter referred to as “electric chew”) is provided, and in the short-time gaming state, the winning rate of the game ball is increased by extending the opening time of the electric chew.

Furthermore, in the above-mentioned 1 type, 2 type, or 1 type 2 type pachinko gaming machine, when the game ball wins the starting opening, it also obtains a design random number. The type of jackpot is determined based on this. For example, it is determined whether or not to give a short time game that is advantageous to the player after the big hit game, or after the big hit game, where a large number of balls can be obtained.
In addition, there is Patent Document 1 as a prior art document of one type and two types of pachinko gaming machines having a short-time game function.

A front cover 32 as shown in FIG. 3A is attached to the front side of the base member 31. Between the base member 31 and the front cover 32, as shown in FIGS. 3B to 3D, a movable piece 3 for guiding a game ball into the special electric accessory device 2, and FIG. As shown in d), a winning detection SW 2a for detecting a game ball won in the special electric accessory device 2 through the movable piece 3 when the movable piece 3 is in the open state is provided.
An opening (hereinafter referred to as “V zone”) 4 is formed below the winning detection SW 2 a and in front of the base member 31. Further, an advance / retreat member 33 which is a second movable portion is disposed inside the V zone 4 and below the V zone 4. The advancing / retreating member 33 is located between the protruding position where the front portion protrudes from the base surface 31 a of the base member 31 whose front portion is substantially flush with the surface of the game board 1 and the retreated position retracted in the V zone 4. It is configured to move forward and backward.
In this case, when the advancing / retreating member 33 is in the protruding position where it protrudes forward, the game ball that has passed through the ball detection SW 2a is likely to win the V zone 4. On the other hand, when the advancing / retreating member 33 is inside the V zone 4 (retracted position), it becomes difficult for the game ball that has passed the ball entry detection SW 2 a to win the V zone 4.
As shown in FIG. 4, a specific area switch (SW) 4 a for detecting a game ball won in the V zone 4 is provided inside the V zone 4 and below the advance / retreat member 33.

The photosensor 35 is configured separately from the advance / retreat member 33, and when the advance / retreat member 33 is at the retracted position in the V zone 4, the light receiving unit and the light emitting unit are shielded by the shielding plate 34, while the advance / retreat member When 33 is in the protruding position, the light-receiving portion and the light-emitting portion are arranged so as not to be shielded by the shielding plate 34.
The bottom plate 33a of the advance / retreat member 33 is preferably an inclined surface that allows the game ball to roll in the direction toward the inside of the V zone 4. Although not shown, a discharge detection switch (SW) for detecting that the winning game ball is discharged to the outside is provided inside the special electric accessory device 2.

FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating the operation of the advance / retreat member provided in the special electric accessory device according to the present embodiment.
In the special electric accessory device 2 of the present embodiment, it is assumed that the game ball P that has passed the winning detection SW 2a falls on the advance / retreat member 33 when the advance / retreat member 33 is in a position protruding forward from the game board surface (FIG. 5 (a) (b)). In this case, the game ball P falling on the advance / retreat member 33 is guided in the internal direction of the V zone 4 (the right direction in FIG. 5). Thereafter, by performing a retraction operation in which the advance / retreat member 33 retreats from the protruding position to the retreat position, the game ball P on the advance / retreat member 33 passes through the specific area SW4a via the through hole 33c of the advance / retreat member 33, and the game ball P winning in the V zone 4 is detected (FIG. 5C).
When the advancing / retreating member 33 is in the protruding position (see FIGS. 5A and 5B), the shielding plate 34 formed integrally with the advancing / retreating member 33 is detached from between the light emitting portion and the light receiving portion of the photosensor 35. The photo sensor 35 enters a non-detection state (off state) in which the shielding plate 34 cannot be detected. On the other hand, when the advance / retreat member 33 is in the retracted position (see FIG. 5C), the shielding plate 34 integrally formed with the advance / retreat member 33 is located between the light emitting portion and the light receiving portion of the photosensor 35. The photosensor 35 enters a detection state (on state) in which the shielding plate 34 is detected.

Thus, in the electric special electric accessory device 2 of the present embodiment, the advancing / retreating member 33 for guiding the game ball to the specific area SW4a in the V zone 4 and the shielding plate 34 for detecting the operation of the advancing / retreating member 33 are used. Are integrally formed, and the operation of the advance / retreat member 33 is detected by the photo sensor 35, whereby it is possible to reliably detect whether the operation of the advance / retreat member 33 is being performed.
In the present embodiment, the advancing / retracting member 33 for guiding the game ball to the specific area SW4a in the V zone 4 is disposed inside the V zone 4, and the front portion of the advancing / retreating member 33 is substantially the same as the board surface of the game board 1. In the above description, the case where the front portion of the base member 31 is protruded from the base surface 31a and the retracted position retracted in the V zone 4 is described as an example. The advancing / retreating member 33, which is a second movable part, is merely an example as long as it can be changed into a mode in which a game ball is easily won in the V zone 4 and a mode in which a game ball is difficult to win.
For example, when the advance / retreat member 33 is disposed above the specific area SW4a and the advance / retreat member 33 is in the protruding position, the game ball is difficult to pass through the specific area SW4a, and conversely, when the advance / retreat member 33 is in the retracted position Even when the sphere is configured to easily pass through the specific area SW4a, the operation of the advance / retreat member 33 is reliably detected by detecting the operation of the advance / retreat member 33 by the photosensor 35.

As the jackpot random number shown in FIG. 7A, one random number value is acquired when the game ball wins the first or second starting port. The game control board 111 selects either a big hit or a small hit based on the acquired big hit random number.
For example, in the jackpot random number shown in FIG. 7A, the ratios of jackpots of the first start port 21 and the second start port (electric Chu) 22 are each set to 1/400, and “0” to “399”. When “3” is acquired from the 400 random number values, the jackpot (1 type jackpot) is selected. The second start port 22 has a small hit rate set to 399/400, and 400 random numbers from “0” to “399” make “0” to “2”, “4” to “399”. ”Is acquired when“ ”is acquired.

Next, as for the design random numbers shown in FIGS. 7B and 7C, one random number value is acquired simultaneously with the jackpot random number when the game ball wins the first start port 21 or the second start port 22.
The game control board 111 selects a jackpot type based on the jackpot random number and the design random number.
For example, as shown in FIG. 7 (b), when a jackpot random number is won for one kind of jackpot (per 15 rounds) during a normal game, the first bonus with a short time to give a short-time game after the jackpot game ends is selected. Or the ratio at which the 1st short timeless per-game length per game is not given after the jackpot game ends is set to 125/250, for example, when the obtained random number value is “0” to “124” The first per-short-length length is selected, and the first per-short-length length is selected from “125” to “249”.
Also, as shown in FIG. 7 (b), when a jackpot random number is won for one kind of jackpot during a short-time game, the ratio of the first short-term headed length is 200/250, and the first short-time headless length is The ratio to be selected is set to 50/250. For example, when the obtained random number value is “0” to “199”, it is per length with the first time reduction, and when it is “200” to “249”, the first time reduction is set. None per length is selected.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 7 (c), when winning two kinds of big hits (16 rounds) via the small hits during the normal game, the second shorted long hits that give the short-time game after the big hit game ends are selected. The ratio, or the ratio at which the second short time without per-hour game is not given after the jackpot game ends is set to 125/250, respectively, for example, when the obtained random number value is “0” to “124” When the length is from “125” to “249”, the length without the third time is selected per second short length.
Also, as shown in FIG. 7 (c), when winning two types of big hits during a short-time game, the ratio of selecting the second short-term length is 200/250, and the second short-time length is selected. The ratio is set to 50/250, for example, when the obtained random number value is “0” to “199”, per length with the first short time, and when “200” to “249”, per second time without the short time Is selected.
In the random number table for gate shown in FIG. 7D, when the game ball passes through the gate 22, one random number value is acquired from, for example, 10 random numbers from “0” to “9”. In the winning random number table, the winning ratio is set to 9/10, for example, and it is determined that the winning value is “0” to “8”.

In the pachinko gaming machine 200 of the present embodiment configured as described above, a big hit random number, a design random number, and the like are acquired in the game control board 111 when a game ball enters the first start port 21 or the electric chew 22, respectively. . Based on the jackpot random number and symbol random number of the first special symbol acquired at the time of winning the first starting opening 21, the first special symbol displayed on the first special symbol display 10 is controlled to change and stop, and the second start Based on the jackpot random number and symbol random number of the second special symbol acquired at the time of winning the mouth 22, the second special symbol displayed on the second special symbol display 11 is controlled to be changed and stopped. When the first special symbol on the first special symbol display 10 is stopped and displayed with a predetermined jackpot symbol, a jackpot game using the jackpot 16 of the bonus device is executed.
Furthermore, the game control board 111 determines whether or not to give a short-time game for a predetermined number of times (for example, 100 times) after the jackpot game is finished based on the design random number. When the game state is entered and it is determined that the time-saving game is not given, the game state is entered.

During the short-time game, when the normal symbol is hit and stops at the symbol, the opening time of the electric chew 22 is configured to be longer when in the normal game state. Therefore, during a short-time game, by launching a game ball aiming at the right side region of the game board 1 on which the gate 23 and the electric chew 22 are arranged, the winning rate of the game ball to the electric chew 22 is increased as a result. .
When a game ball wins the electric Chu 22, the second special symbol fluctuates for a predetermined time due to the winning and stops. At this time, the second special symbol is stopped and displayed as a small hit symbol at a ratio of 399/400. When the second special symbol stops at the small hitting symbol, as the small hitting operation, an opening / closing operation for opening and closing the movable piece 3 of the special electric accessory device 2 once or a plurality of times is performed. Then, in this opening / closing operation, when the game ball wins in the special electric accessory device 2 and the winning game ball passes the V zone 4, two kinds of big wins are generated, and the big winning port 16 of the big winning device is used. A jackpot game runs.

Further, in the pachinko gaming machine 200 of the present embodiment, when a game ball is won in the electric chew 22 while the second special symbol of the second special symbol display 11 is variably displayed, for example, the second special symbol is limited to four. The right to fluctuate and display is held in the RAM 114 of the game control board 111. Therefore, even if the player shifts to the normal gaming state after the jackpot game, the right until the change of the second special symbol corresponding to the number of the second special symbols held (for example, four times) stops, If the game ball won in the special electric accessory device 2 through the small hitting operation corresponding to the number of reserves passes through the V zone 4 again, the big hit game can be acquired again. You can expect to get even more balls.
Further, in the pachinko gaming machine 200 according to the present embodiment, the game control board 111 determines whether the advance / retreat member 33 is operating normally during the small hit based on the detection result of the photo sensor 35. For example, by restricting the operation of the advancing / retreating member 33, it is possible to prevent an illegal game from being won by winning a jackpot other than a long time with a short time during a short time game.

Hereinafter, processing executed by the game control device in order to realize the operation of the pachinko gaming machine 200 of the present embodiment described so far will be described.

It is determined whether or not the symbol or the special symbol on the second special symbol display 11 is changing (S312). If it is determined that the special symbol is not fluctuating, it is determined whether or not the reserved number U2 of the second starting port SW22a to be preferentially digested is greater than “1” (S313), and the reserved number U2 is “1”. If it is determined that the number is larger, “1” is subtracted from the reserved number U2 (S314).
At this time, for example, when first to fourth storage areas are provided as storage areas for storing game data corresponding to the special symbols of the second special symbol display 11 in the RAM 114, they are stored in the fourth storage area. The game data stored in the third storage area is shifted to the third storage area, the game data stored in the third storage area is shifted to the second storage area, and the game data stored in the second storage area is shifted to the first storage area. . Then, the data stored in the first storage area is written in a predetermined processing area.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S313 that the reserved number U2 is not ≧ 1, that is, if the reserved number U2 is “0”, then whether or not the reserved number U1 of the first start port SW21a is greater than “1”. Is determined (S316), and if it is determined that the reserved number U1 is greater than "1", "1" is subtracted from the reserved number U1 (S317). At this time, for example, when the first to fourth storage areas are provided as storage areas for storing game data corresponding to the special symbols of the first special symbol display 10 in the RAM 114, the fourth storage area The stored game data is shifted to the third storage area, the game data stored in the third storage area is shifted to the second storage area, and the game data stored in the second storage area is shifted to the first storage area. To do. Then, the game data stored in the first storage area is written in a predetermined processing area.

Next, the CPU 112 turns off the customer waiting flag (S315). Next, a jackpot determination process to be described later is executed based on the game data written in the predetermined processing area (S318). After the big hit determination process is executed, a later-described variation pattern selection process is executed (S319). After the variation pattern selection processing is executed, the variation of the corresponding first special symbol display 10 or second special symbol display 11 is started and a variation start command is set (S320, S321).
Next, the CPU 112 determines whether or not the variation time of the first or second special symbol has passed the predetermined variation time (S322). If it is determined that the predetermined variation time has elapsed, The fluctuation of the special symbol display 10 or the second special symbol display 11 is stopped and a predetermined special symbol is displayed (S323). Thereafter, a change stop command is set (S324), a stop process (S325) described later is executed, and the special symbol process is ended.

If it is determined in step S311 that the winning game flag is ON, or if it is determined in step S322 that the variation time of the special symbol has not reached the predetermined variation time, the special symbol processing is terminated.
If it is determined in step S312 that the special symbol is changing, the process proceeds to step S322, and it is determined whether or not the variation time of the special symbol has passed a predetermined variation time.
If it is determined in step S316 that the number of holdings U1 is not ≧ 1, that is, if it is determined that there is no holding of the holding numbers U1 and U2, it is executed in a customer waiting setting process described later (S326). The process ends.

FIG. 17 is a flowchart showing an example of the variation pattern selection process executed by the CPU of the game control board.
When the special symbol is the first special symbol, the CPU 112 determines whether or not it is a big hit (S341). If the special symbol is determined to be a big winner, the CPU 112 sets the big winner table in the RAM 114 (S342).
On the other hand, if it is determined in step S341 that it is not a big hit, if the special symbol is the second special symbol in step S343, it is determined whether or not it is a small hit, and if it is determined that it is a small hit Sets the small hitting table in the RAM 114 (S344). If it is determined in step S343 that it is not a small hit, the loss table is set in the RAM 114 (S345).
Next, the CPU 112 determines the variation pattern random number acquired in steps S204 and S209 (see FIG. 9) (S346), and sets the variation pattern corresponding to the variation pattern random number from the set table. (S347). After the variation pattern is set, the variation pattern selection process is terminated.

[Processing while stopped]
FIG. 18 is a flowchart showing an example of the stop process executed by the CPU of the game control board.
The CPU 112 determines whether or not the time reduction flag is ON (S351), and if it is determined that the time reduction flag is ON, the CPU 112 sets “1” from the remaining time J of the time reduction game stored in the RAM 114. Subtraction is performed (S352).
Next, the CPU 112 determines whether or not the remaining game count J is “0” (S353). If the remaining game count J is “0”, the special symbol variation display is performed a predetermined number of times in the short-time game. Since this means that it has been performed (for example, 100 times), the time reduction flag is turned OFF (S354). If it is determined in step S351 that the time reduction flag is not ON, or if it is determined in step S353 that the remaining game number J is not “0”, the process proceeds to step S355.

Next, the CPU 112 determines whether or not the jackpot is based on the special symbol set on the first special symbol display 10 or the second special symbol display 11 (S355). Next, it is determined whether or not the set special symbol is “small hit” (S356).
If it is determined that the game is a small hit, the small hit game flag is turned ON (S357). Thereafter, the small hitting opening is started, and the small hitting opening command is set (S358, S359), and the in-stop process is ended.
On the other hand, if it is determined in step S356 that it is not a small hit, the in-stop process is terminated without turning on the small hit game flag.
If it is determined in step S355 that the game is a big hit, “0” is set to the remaining game count J of the short-time game, the remaining game count J is reset, and the short-time flag is turned OFF (S360, S361). ). Thereafter, the jackpot opening is started, a jackpot opening command is set (S362, S363), and the stop process is terminated.

[Customer waiting setting process]
FIG. 19 is a flowchart showing an example of a customer waiting setting process executed by the CPU of the game control board.

FIG. 20 is a flowchart showing an example of normal symbol processing executed by the CPU of the game control board.
The CPU 112 determines whether or not an auxiliary game flag indicating that the electric chew 22 is in operation is ON (S381). If it is determined that the auxiliary game flag is ON, the normal symbol process is terminated. .
On the other hand, if it is determined in step S381 that the auxiliary game flag is not ON, it is determined whether or not the normal symbol is changing (S382). Here, when it is determined that the normal symbol is not changing, it is determined whether or not the gate passing number G of the gate SW 23a is greater than “1” (S383), and the count passing number G is greater than “1”. 1 subtracts “1” from the number of times of gate passage (S384), and if it is determined that the number of times of gate passage G is not greater than “1”, that is, “0”, the normal symbol processing is terminated.
Next, the CPU 112 determines a random number per normal symbol (S385), and sets a stop symbol to be stopped and displayed on the normal symbol display 12 and a variation time (S386, S387).
Here, the set fluctuation time differs depending on the state of the time reduction flag stored in the RAM 114. For example, when the time reduction flag is OFF, the variation time is set to a relatively long 4.0 seconds.
On the other hand, when the hour / short flag is ON, a relatively short 1.5 seconds is set. After this, the normal symbol display 12 starts to change.

Next, the CPU 112 determines whether or not the normal symbol variation time has elapsed for a predetermined time (S389). If it is determined that the normal symbol variation time has not elapsed for the predetermined time, the normal symbol processing is terminated. To do.
On the other hand, if it is determined that the predetermined fluctuation time has elapsed, the fluctuation is stopped (S390), and then it is determined whether or not the normal symbol is a winning symbol (S391).
If the normal symbol is a winning symbol, the auxiliary game flag is turned ON (S392), and the normal symbol processing is terminated. If the stop symbol is not a winning symbol in step S391, the normal symbol processing is terminated without turning on the auxiliary game flag.

On the other hand, if it is determined in step S411 that the big hit game flag is not ON, it is determined whether or not the small hit game flag is ON (S413), and if it is determined that the small hit game flag is ON. Then, the small hit game process using the special electric accessory device 2 is executed (S414). After executing the jackpot game process or the jackpot game process, the big prize opening process is terminated. Also, in the case where it is determined in step S413 that the small hit game flag is not ON, the big prize opening process is ended.

[Big hit game processing]
FIG. 22 is a flowchart showing an example of a jackpot game process executed by the CPU of the game control board. Note that, in the jackpot game process using the special electric accessory device 2 and the jackpot game process using the jackpot 16 of the prize winning device, the setting of the number of rounds and the opening pattern is changed according to the prize winning device to be used. However, since the others can be realized by the same processing, here, the jackpot operation using the big prize opening device 30 will be described.
First, the CPU 112 determines whether or not the jackpot opening is in progress (S421). If it is determined that the jackpot opening is in progress, it is then determined whether or not the opening time has elapsed (S422). If it is determined that the opening time has elapsed, “1” is set to the value of the round number R indicating the number of jackpot rounds (S423). Thereafter, the number of rounds (number of Rs) / operation pattern is set (S424).

FIG. 23 is a diagram showing a setting example of the number of rounds / operation pattern.
In the present embodiment, when the jackpot is one kind of jackpot, the operation pattern in the round number (R number) 15R, 1R is set to, for example, 29.5 seconds open × 1 time by using the big winning device 16. Perform a jackpot game.
In addition, when the jackpot is a two-type jackpot via the V zone in the special electric accessory device 2, the special electric accessory device 2 is used and the operation pattern of the number of rounds (R number) 16R and 1R is small. The winning game is executed with the winning pattern, the second and subsequent operating patterns set to, for example, 29.5 seconds open × 1.
Next, the CPU 112 resets the number counter C indicating the number of winnings per round of the big winning device 16 to “0”, and adds “1” to the value of the round number R (S425, S426). Thereafter, the operation of the big prize opening 16 of the big prize device is started. That is, the big prize opening 16 of the big prize winning device is changed from the closed state to the open state (S427).

Next, the CPU 112 determines whether or not the operating time of the special winning opening 16 of the winning device has passed a predetermined operating time (S428), and determines that the operating time has not passed the predetermined time. Next, it is determined whether or not the value of the number counter C has reached the specified number C (S429).
If it is determined in step S429 that the value of the number counter C is the specified number C, the operation of the big prize opening 16 of the big prize device is terminated (S430). That is, the big winning opening 16 of the big winning device is changed from the open state to the closed state.
On the other hand, when it is determined that the value of the number counter C is not the specified number C, the big hit game process is terminated.
In step S428, if the operating time of the special winning device 16 has passed the predetermined operating time, the processing of step S429 is skipped, and the large winning device is checked without checking the number of the number counter C. The operation of the winning opening 16 is finished (S430).

Next, the CPU 112 determines whether or not the jackpot round number is the maximum round number R. That is, it is determined whether or not the big hit round is the final round (S431). If it is determined that the jackpot round is the final round, the jackpot ending is started (S432), and the jackpot ending command is set (S433).
Next, after the value of the round number R is reset to “0” (S434), it is determined whether or not the jackpot ending time has elapsed (S435). If it is determined that the jackpot ending time has elapsed, the game state setting process is executed (S436), the jackpot game flag is turned OFF (S437), and the jackpot game process is terminated.
On the other hand, if it is determined in step S431 that the jackpot round is not the final round, the jackpot game process is terminated.

If it is determined in step S421 that the jackpot opening is not in progress, it is determined whether or not the jackpot ending is in progress (S438). If it is determined that the jackpot ending is in progress, the process proceeds to step S435. If it is determined that the ending is not in progress, it is determined whether or not the large winning opening 16 of the large winning device is in operation (S439).
Here, if it is determined that the big prize opening 16 of the big prize winning device is in operation, the process proceeds to step S428, and if it is determined that the big prize opening 16 of the big prize winning device is not in operation, the process proceeds to step S425. .
If it is determined in step S422 that the jackpot opening time has not elapsed, if it is determined in step S429 that the value of the number counter C has not reached the specified number C, or if the jackpot ending time has elapsed in step S435. If it is determined that it is not, the jackpot game process is terminated.

[Game state setting process]
FIG. 24 is a flowchart showing an example of a game state setting process executed by the CPU of the game control board.
The CPU 112 determines whether or not it is a jackpot with a time-saving (S451). If it is determined that it is a jackpot with a time-saving, the CPU sets the time-saving flag to ON and sets the remaining game count J of the time-saving game to “100”, for example. Is set (S452, S453), and the gaming state setting process is terminated. Note that the game state setting process is also terminated when it is determined in step S451 that the jackpot is not a time-saving jackpot.

[Small hit game processing]
FIG. 25 is a flowchart showing an example of the small hit game process executed by the CPU of the game control board.
CPU112 discriminate | determines whether the entrance flag of the special electric accessory apparatus 2 is ON (S471). If it is determined in step S471 that the ball entry flag is not ON, it is determined whether or not the movable piece 3 of the special electric accessory device 2 is in operation (S472). If it is determined in step S472 that the special electric accessory device 2 is not in operation, a small hit release pattern is set (S473).
Next, the CPU 112 starts the operation of the special electric accessory device 2 (S474). Specifically, the movable piece 3 is changed from the closed state to the open state, and the advance / retreat operation of the advance / retreat member 33 is started. Then, the advance / retreat member process for detecting whether the advance / retreat member 33 in the special electric accessory device 2 is operating is executed (S475).
Next, the CPU 112 determines whether or not the operation time of the special electric accessory device 2 has passed the predetermined time (S476). If the predetermined operation time has elapsed, the CPU 112 The operation is terminated (S477).
On the other hand, if it is determined in step S476 that the operation time of the special electric accessory device 2 has not passed the predetermined time, the small hit game process is terminated.

Next, the CPU 112 determines whether or not the V flag indicating that the game ball has passed the V zone 4 is ON (S478). If it is determined that the V flag is ON, in step S479, It is determined whether or not the entry flag is OFF, that is, whether or not all the game balls in the special electric accessory device 2 have been discharged. In step S479, if it is determined that the pitch flag is OFF, the jackpot game flag is turned ON (S480), and the hourly flag is turned OFF (S481). Thereafter, the jackpot opening is started (S482), and the jackpot opening command is set (S483). Next, the V flag is returned to OFF (S484), the small hit game flag is returned to OFF (S488), and the small hit game process is terminated. If it is determined in step S479 that the pitch flag is not OFF, the small hit game process is terminated.
On the other hand, if it is determined in step S478 that the V flag is not ON, the process proceeds to step S485, and it is determined whether or not the entrance flag is OFF. If it is determined in step S485 that the entrance flag is OFF, a small hit ending is started (S486), a small hit ending command is set (S487), and the process proceeds to step S488. If it is determined in step S485 that the entrance flag is not OFF, the small hit game process is terminated.
If it is determined in step S471 that the pitch flag is ON, or if it is determined in step S472 that the special electric accessory device 2 is operating, the process proceeds to step S476.

[Advance and Retreat Member Processing]
FIG. 26 is a flowchart showing an example of the advance / retreat member process executed by the CPU of the game control board.
In this case, the CPU 112 starts the operation of the advance / retreat member 33. Next, it is determined whether or not the advance / retreat member 33 is operating based on the detection result from the photosensor 35 that detects the operation of the advance / retreat member 33. If the operation of the advance / retreat member 33 is detected, the process is terminated.
On the other hand, if the movement of the advance / retreat member 33 cannot be detected in step S502, the process proceeds to error processing (S503). When the process shifts to an error process, the progress of the game is temporarily stopped and various notification processes for notifying the employee and the player on the hall side that an error has occurred are performed.

[Den Chu processing]
FIG. 27 is a flowchart showing an example of electric chew processing executed by the CPU of the game control board.
The CPU 112 determines whether or not the auxiliary game flag is ON (S511), and if it is determined that the auxiliary game flag is ON, next determines whether or not the electric chew 22 is operating. This is performed (S512). Here, if the electric chew 22 is not in operation, the operation pattern of the electric chew 22 is set (S513), and the operation of the electric chew is started (S514).
For example, when the hourly flag is OFF, the opening time of the electric chew 22 is set to 0.15 seconds and the number of times of opening is set to one, and when the hourly flag is ON, Set the opening time to 1.80 seconds and the number of opening to 3 times.
Next, the CPU 112 determines whether or not the operation time of the electric chew 22 has passed a predetermined operation time (S515). If it is determined that the operation time of the electric chew 22 has elapsed, an auxiliary game flag is set. It is turned off (S516), and the electric Chu process is terminated.
If it is determined in step S512 that the electric chew 22 is operating, the process proceeds to step S515.
If it is determined in step S511 that the auxiliary game flag is not ON, or if it is determined in step S515 that the operation time of the electric chew 22 has not elapsed, the electric chew process is terminated.
