Further, the pressure receiving portion 51 is inclined with respect to the door rotation shaft 41, and gradually moves away from the door rotation shaft 41 as the pressure reception portion 51 moves toward the opening / closing central axis C along the door rotation shaft 41. It is set. Then, in the open state of the collection door 40, the position of the pressure receiving portion 51 in the front-rear direction as it goes toward the opening / closing central axis C along the left-right direction of the front frame 3 (in other words, the extending direction of the door rotation shaft 41). (That is, the front surface) is set to an inclined surface that gradually approaches the front opening / closing central axis C side, and the door operation unit 50 faces the inclined surface, that is, the press receiving portion 51. On the other hand, when the collection door 40 is converted to the closed state, the pressure receiving portion 51 is inclined downward toward the opening / closing central axis C side along the left-right direction of the front frame 3 (in other words, the extending direction of the door rotation shaft 41). It is set as follows.

  In the pachinko gaming machine 1 including the ball collection port 35, the collection door 40, and the door operation unit 50 having such a configuration, the transparent member holding frame 9 is attached to the front frame 3 as shown in FIGS. When opened, the ball introduction rod 31 is sufficiently separated forward from the downstream opening 29a of the ball discharge channel 29, and the door operation unit 50 is separated from the press receiving unit 51 to convert the collection door 40 from the closed state to the open state. Allow to do. Then, the collection door 40 is rotated by the urging force of the urging member 45 to convert to the open state, and the sphere collection port 35 is opened upward to face the downstream opening 29a of the sphere discharge passage 29 from below. The door main body 42 is stopped in a posture in which the door main body 42 stands up from the door rotation shaft 41. When a game ball falls from the ball discharge channel 29, the game ball is received and collected at the ball collection port 35, passed through the ball collection channel 36 and the foul channel 26, and sent to the lower dish unit 12. Discharge. Further, the door main body 42 of the collection door 40 stands on the front edge portion of the opening edge of the ball collection port 35 that is located on the opposite side to the downstream opening 29a of the ball discharge passage 29 across the ball collection port 35. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the game ball falling from the ball discharge passage 29 from coming off the upper side of the ball collection port 35 by the collection door 40 in the standing state, and guide this game ball to the ball collection port 35 without any trouble. can do.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 7, when the transparent member holding frame 9 is rotated backward to convert the transparent member holding frame 9 from the open state to the closed state, the ball introduction rod 31 is rotated about the opening / closing central axis C, and the front frame body 4, the door operation unit 50 comes into contact with the pressure receiving unit 51 before the upstream opening 32 b of the sphere introduction channel 32 is connected to the downstream opening 29 a of the sphere discharge channel 29. When the transparent member holding frame 9 is further rotated rearward in this state, the door operation unit 50 presses the press receiving portion 51 toward the rear front frame main body 4 and the door main body 42 is applied to the biasing force of the biasing member 45. Accordingly, the recovery door 40 is rotated from the open state to the closed state by rotating around the door rotation shaft 41. Here, the collection door 40 in the open state is set in a state in which the press receiving portion 51 is set to an inclined surface that gradually approaches the opening / closing central axis C side along the left-right direction of the front frame 3 toward the opening / closing central axis C side. Since it faces the door operation part 50, the vector (action direction) of the pressing force F which the door operation part 50 gives to the press receiving part 51 and the extending direction of the press receiving part 51 will be in a nearly orthogonal state. Thereby, when the door operation part 50 rotates with the transparent member holding frame 9 and closes the collection door 40, the sliding (sliding) of the door operation part 50 on the press receiving part 51 can be suppressed to be small. . Therefore, the energy loss spent for sliding is reduced, and the pressing force F by the door operation unit 50 can be efficiently transmitted to the collection door 40, and the collection door 40 can be closed without delay.

  Furthermore, since the collection door 40 in the open state has the door rotation shaft 41 set sideways, the door main body 42 and the press receiving portion 51 are provided at a position located above the door rotation shaft 41 in the open state. The collection door 40 can be converted to the closed state by using not only the pressing force F of the door operation unit 50 but also the weight of the pressure receiving portion 51 (specifically, the weight of the door main body 42). Therefore, it is easy to quickly convert the collection door 40 to the closed state.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 6B, when the transparent member holding frame 9 continues to rotate backward and is sufficiently closed with respect to the front frame 3, the ball introduction rod 31 is opened upstream of the ball introduction flow path 32 b. Are connected to and communicated with the downstream opening 29a of the ball discharge channel 29, and the game ball can be paid out from the ball discharge channel 29 to the upper plate unit 11 through the ball introduction channel 32. In addition, the collection door 40 is sufficiently pressed by the door receiving unit 51 by the door operation unit 50 to be in a closed state (a posture in which the door body 42 protrudes rearward from the door rotation shaft 41), and the ball collection port 35 is closed. . Further, the door main body 42 enters below the ball introduction rod 31 and abuts against the lower surface of the ball introduction rod 31 so that the door main body 42 is prevented from rotating upward, and the collection door 40 is maintained in the closed state. In other words, the ball introduction rod 31 presses the collection door 40 from above against the urging force of the urging member 45 to prevent the collection door 40 from converting from the closed state to the open state.

  By the way, in the said embodiment, the door rotation axis | shaft 41 of the collection | recovery door 40 is set behind the opening-and-closing center axis | shaft C of the transparent member holding frame 9, and in the open state of the collection | recovery door 40, the press receiving part 51 is made into a front frame. Although the position in the front-rear direction is gradually set closer to the front opening / closing central axis C side as it goes to the opening / closing central axis C side along the left / right direction 3, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, when the door rotation shaft 41 of the collection door 40 is set in front of the opening / closing center axis C of the transparent member holding frame 9, when the collection door 40 is open, the pressure receiving If the position of the front-rear direction is gradually set closer to the rear opening / closing central axis C side as the portion 51 is moved along the left-right direction of the front frame 3 toward the opening / closing central axis C side, the door operation unit 50 holds the transparent member. When the recovery door 40 is closed by rotating together with the frame 9, the sliding of the door operation part 50 on the press receiving part 51 can be suppressed small.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the transparent member holding frame 9 provided with the ball | bowl introduction flow path 32 was illustrated as an opening / closing body provided with the opening-and-closing side ball flow path, this invention is not limited to this. The opening / closing body in the present invention may be any one as long as it has a component that can be opened and closed with respect to the front frame 3 and can flow down the game ball. For example, it can store (flow down) the game ball. A sphere storage unit that includes a sphere storage tray and is pivotally attached to the front frame 3 separately from the transparent member holding frame 9 may be used. Furthermore, in the said embodiment, although the press receiving part 51 was provided in the surface of the door main body 42, this invention is not limited to this. In short, when the opening / closing body is closed with respect to the front frame, the door operation section presses the pressure receiving section to convert the collection door to the closed state, and when the opening / closing body is opened with respect to the front frame, the door operation section is pressed. A press receiving portion having any configuration may be used as long as it is allowed to be separated from the receiving portion and convert the collection door to the open state. For example, you may comprise a press receiving part with a member different from a door main body.
