  Hereinafter, embodiments according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In the following description, the plane direction is a direction along (parallel to) the plane direction of the game board 90, and the front-rear direction is a direction orthogonal to the plane direction of the game board 90 (the player side is front and the opposite side is the front side). The left and right direction (width direction) means the left and right direction in FIG. 1, and the up and down direction means the up and down direction in FIG.

  First, the overall configuration of the gaming machine 1 will be briefly described with reference to FIG. The gaming machine 1 includes a game board 90. The game board 90 is formed of a substantially square plywood, and a strip-shaped guide rail 903 made of a thin metal plate for guiding a game ball fired by the operation of the launcher to the game area 902 has a substantially arc shape. Is provided.

  In the game area 902, a display device 91, a first start winning opening 904, a second starting winning opening 905, a big winning opening 906, an out opening 907, and the like are provided. As the display device 91, for example, a liquid crystal display device is used, and special symbols, normal symbols, and the like are displayed on the display screen (display unit) of the display device 91. The display screen of the display device 91 is visible through an opening 901 formed in the game board 90.

  In addition, the game area 902 is provided with a plurality of game nails as obstacles that change the flow-down mode of the game balls when the flow-down game balls collide. The game ball flowing down the game area 902 changes into various modes depending on the condition when it collides with the game nail.

  In such a gaming machine 1, a game ball is launched toward the game area 902 by operating the launching device. When a game ball flowing down the game area 902 wins a winning port such as the start winning ports 904 and 905 or the big winning port 906, a predetermined number of award balls are paid out by the payout device. In addition, the jackpot lottery method, effects, and the like can be applied to those similar to known game machines, and thus description thereof is omitted.

  The gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment is provided with a center base 80 that supports the gaming board 90 behind the gaming board 90. As shown in FIG. 2, the center base 80 includes a bottom wall portion 81 that is substantially parallel to the plane direction (game board 90), and a side wall portion that extends forward from the peripheral edge (upper and lower left and right edges) of the bottom wall portion 81. 82. The rotating body unit 1u is supported on the front surface (player side) of the bottom wall portion 81 of the center base 80. Hereinafter, the configuration of the rotating body unit 1u will be described in detail.

  2 and 3 includes a slide base 30, a first rotary body 10 supported by the slide base 30, and a second rotary body 20 supported by the first rotary body 10. Both sides in the width direction of the slide base 30 are supported so as to be slidable with respect to two rails 811 extending in the vertical direction fixed to the bottom wall portion 81 of the center base 80. Since any drive mechanism for sliding the slide base 30 may be used, the description thereof is omitted. In this embodiment, the power of a slide drive source (not shown), which is a motor, is transmitted to the slide base 30 via the toothed wheel train, so that the slide base 30 slides in the vertical direction along the rail 811. . As the slide base 30 moves upward, the first rotating body 10 and the second rotating body 20 are in a state of being visible through the opening 901 of the game board 90. Thus, the rotating body unit 1u can reciprocate between the advanced position located at the uppermost position and the original position located at the lowest position.

  The slide base 30 has rotation support portions 31 on both sides in the width direction. The width between both rotation support portions 31 (the size of the space between both rotation support portions 31) is larger than the width of the first rotation body 10. The first rotating body 10 is rotatably supported by the both rotation support portions 31. That is, the first rotating body 10 is provided so as to be rotatable with respect to both the rotation support portions 31 inside the both rotation support portions 31.

  A first drive source 41 and a second drive source 42 for rotating the first rotary body 10 and the second rotary body 20 are fixed to the slide base 30. Both drive sources in this embodiment are motors.

  As shown in FIGS. 4-6, the 1st rotary body 10 in this embodiment is a member which exhibits a substantially cylindrical shape roughly. The first rotating body 10 has a main body portion 11 and a connection portion 12. The main body 11 is a part located on both sides in the width direction of the first rotating body 10 and has a substantially cylindrical shape. A space of a predetermined size is formed inside each main body 11. The connecting portion 12 is an axial portion extending in the width direction that connects the two main body portions 11. In the present embodiment, both main body portions 11 are connected by four connection portions 12. The number (four) of the connecting portions 12 is the same as the number of the second rotating bodies 20.

  A first drive gear 13 is provided on one side in the width direction of the first rotating body 10. The first drive gear 13 is accommodated in the rotation support portion 31 on one side in the width direction (left side in the present embodiment). As shown in FIG. 7, the power of the first drive source 41 is transmitted to the first drive gear 13 through one or more gears. In the present embodiment, the power of the first drive source 41 is transmitted through the first output gear 411 fixed to the output shaft of the first drive source 41, which is a motor, and the first relay gear 412 meshing with the first output gear 411. 13 is transmitted. As the first drive gear 13 rotates, the first rotating body 10 provided with the first drive gear 13 rotates. A sun gear 24 and a second drive gear 23 described later are accommodated in the main body 11 on the other side in the width direction of the first rotating body 10 (right side in the present embodiment).

  As shown in FIGS. 4-6, the 2nd rotary body 20 in this embodiment is a plate-shaped member used as a substantially elliptical shape (substantially rectangular shape) with a thin cross section. In the present embodiment, four second rotating bodies 20 are supported with respect to the first rotating body 10. Each second rotating body 20 is formed with a first decorative portion 21 and a second decorative portion 22 that are formed to face in opposite directions. The decoration aspect of the first decoration part 21 and the decoration aspect of the second decoration part 22 are different. In this embodiment, all the decoration aspects differ in the 1st decoration part 21 and the 2nd decoration part 22 (total eight decoration parts) formed in each 2nd rotary body 20. FIG.

  The plurality of second rotating bodies 20 are rotatably supported with respect to the first rotating body 10 so as to be aligned along the rotation direction of the first rotating body 10. Specifically, the circle connecting the rotation centers 20c of the plurality of second rotating bodies 20 has the same center as the circle formed by the outer edge of the first rotating body 10 (main body portion 11). Each decoration part is a curved surface, and when the second rotating body 20 is located at a predetermined position, the curved surface is along the outer peripheral surface of the first rotating body 10 (main body part 11). That is, when the rotational direction position of the second rotating body 20 is at a certain position, the curved surface of the first decorative portion 21 is in a state along the outer peripheral surface of the first rotating body 10 (main body portion 11), and from there the second rotating body When 20 rotates 180 degrees, the curved surface of the second decorative portion 22 is in a state along the outer peripheral surface of the first rotating body 10 (main body portion 11). Thus, in the present embodiment, there are two “predetermined positions” where the curved surface of any one of the decorative portions is in a state along the outer peripheral surface of the first rotating body 10 (main body portion 11).

  Each second rotating body 20 is provided with a second drive gear 23 (corresponding to the second gear in the present invention). When the second driving gear 23 rotates, the entire second rotating body 20 rotates. Since the second drive gear 23 is a part of the second rotating body 20, it is arranged along the rotation direction of the first rotating body 10. All the second drive gears 23 mesh with one sun gear 24 (corresponding to the first gear in the present invention). That is, it can be said that each second drive gear 23 is a planetary gear that meshes with the sun gear 24. The sun gear 24 is a gear arranged so that the rotation center thereof coincides with the rotation center 10 c of the first rotating body 10. However, the sun gear 24 and the first rotating body 10 are not connected and rotate independently of each other. The second drive gear 23 and the sun gear 24 are accommodated in the main body 11 on the other side in the width direction of the first rotating body 10.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the power of the second drive source 42 is transmitted to the sun gear 24 through one or more gears. In the present embodiment, the transmission is transmitted to the sun gear 24 via the second output gear 421 fixed to the output shaft of the second drive source 42, the second relay gear A422 that meshes with the second output gear 421, and the second relay gear B423 that meshes with it. Is done. The second relay gear B 423 and the sun gear 24 are compound gears that rotate integrally. As will be described later, when the second drive source 42 is driven while the first drive source 41 is stopped, the sun gear 24 rotates via the one or more gears. Thereby, each 2nd drive gear 23 which meshes with this sun gear 24 rotates. That is, the second rotating body 20 rotates. The tooth wheel train for driving only the second drive source 42 and rotating the second rotor 20 without rotating the first rotor 10 is a speed increasing wheel train as viewed from the second drive source 42 side. ing. That is, the pitch circle diameter of the second drive gear 23 is smaller than the pitch circle diameter of the second output gear 421 fixed to the output shaft of the second drive source 42.

  Although the operation of the rotating body unit 1u (the first rotating body 10 and the second rotating body 20) configured as described above partially overlaps with the above description, it will be described in detail below.

  When the first drive source 41 is driven while the second drive source 42 is stopped, the power is transmitted to the first drive gear 13. That is, the first rotating body 10 on which the first drive gear 13 is formed rotates. When the first rotating body 10 rotates, the center position of the second rotating body 20 supported so as to be aligned in the rotation direction of the first rotating body 10 is displaced around the rotation axis of the first rotating body 10.

  The fact that the center position of each second rotating body 20 is displaced means that the center position of each second drive gear 23 that rotates integrally therewith is also displaced around the rotation axis of the first rotating body 10. Here, since the second drive source 42 is in a stopped state, the sun gear 24 remains stopped. Specifically, in order to rotate the sun gear 24, it is necessary to apply a force that exceeds the resistance force such as the detent torque of the motor to the sun gear 24. Since such a force does not act on the sun gear 24, the sun gear 24 does not rotate.

  Therefore, when the first rotating body 10 rotates, each second drive gear 23 meshed with the sun gear 24 in a stopped state is displaced around the rotation axis of the first rotating body 10. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 9, each second driving gear 23 rotates while displacing its center position around the rotation axis of the first rotating body 10. That is, each second drive gear 23 rotates while revolving around the rotation axis of the sun gear 24. Since each second drive gear 23 has the same pitch circle diameter and is provided at equal intervals in the rotation direction of the sun gear 24, the rotation amount of each second drive gear 23 is the same. That is, the rotation of each second rotating body 20 is synchronized.

  As described above, when the first drive source 41 is driven while the second drive source 42 is stopped, the first rotary body 10 rotates and the second rotary body 20 moves relative to the first rotary body 10. Rotate (see FIG. 11 for how each second rotating body 20 rotates relative to the first rotating body 10). That is, as the first rotating body 10 rotates, the position of the decorative portion of the second rotating body 20 also changes while the second rotating body 20 positioned on the player side (front) changes. By controlling the drive amount of the first drive source 41, any one of the four second rotating bodies 20 is positioned on the player side, and the first rotating body 20 It is possible to set either one of the decoration part 21 and the second decoration part 22 to the player side (the second rotating body 20 is positioned at a predetermined position). In other words, it is possible to make one of the two types of decorative portions (total of eight decorative portions) formed on each second rotating body 20 face the player side. Moreover, since the 1st rotary body 10 rotates and the 2nd rotary body 20 rotates, an operation | movement aspect becomes interesting. During the operation, not only the first rotating body 10 but also the second rotating body 20 is rotating, so that it can be said that the fun of the production is improved in that it is difficult for the player to see which decoration part stops.

  On the other hand, when the second drive source 42 is driven with the first drive source 41 stopped, the power of the second drive source 42 is transmitted to the sun gear 24 and the sun gear 24 rotates. When the sun gear 24 rotates, the second drive gear 23 meshed with it rotates. Since the sun gear 24 is not connected to the first rotating body 10, the first rotating body 10 does not rotate. That is, as shown in FIG. 10, each second rotary body 20 provided with the second drive gear 23 rotates without changing the position of the rotation center 20c (as it is). Since each second drive gear 23 has the same pitch circle diameter and is provided at equal intervals in the rotation direction of the sun gear 24, the rotation amount of each second drive gear 23 is the same. That is, as in the case where the first drive source 41 is driven, the rotation of each second rotating body 20 is synchronized.

  As described above, when the second drive source 42 is driven while the first drive source 41 is stopped, the first rotator 10 does not rotate but the second rotators 20 rotate (the first rotator 10). On the other hand, how each second rotating body 20 rotates is shown in FIG. Therefore, for example, changing the decoration mode of the second rotating body 20 located on the player side (from the state where one decoration part faces the player side to the state where the other decoration part faces the player side) Can be changed).

  As described above, in the rotating body unit 1u in the present embodiment, when the first drive source 41 is driven, the second rotating body 20 rotates together with the first rotating body 10. On the other hand, when the second drive source 42 is driven, the first rotating body 10 does not rotate but the second rotating body 20 rotates. That is, the second rotating body 20 around the rotation axis of the first rotating body 10 is rotated while changing the rotational direction position of the second rotating body 20 around the rotation axis of the first rotating body 10. Any of the operations of rotating the second rotating body 20 without changing the rotational direction position can be selectively executed.

  Hereinafter, the structure for correcting the position of the 2nd rotary body 20 provided in the game machine 1 concerning this embodiment is demonstrated. As described above, the rotation unit in the present embodiment can move within a predetermined range by the slide base 30 being guided by the rail 811. The rotation unit in the present embodiment can slide in the vertical direction.

  As shown in FIG. 2, a contact portion 812 is provided on the bottom wall portion 81 of the center base 80 to which the rail 811 is fixed. The contact portion 812 is a protrusion that protrudes forward from the bottom wall portion 81 of the center base 80. When the rotating body unit 1u is located at a predetermined position, the contact portion 812 is positioned so as to overlap the first rotating body 10 and the second rotating body 20 supported thereby in the front-rear direction. The protruding height of the contact portion 812 is set as follows.

  When the rotary unit slides so as to pass the position overlapping the contact portion 812 in the front-rear direction, the contact portion 812 does not contact the first rotating body 10. The position of the rear edge of the first rotating body 10 having a cylindrical shape and having the center line of the cylinder as the rotation center 10c does not change regardless of the position in the rotation direction. Therefore, the contact portion 812 is formed such that the front end (front end) thereof is located behind the position of the rear end edge of the first rotating body 10.

  The second rotator 20 that is rotatably supported with respect to the first rotator 10 does not protrude outward from the outer peripheral surface of the first rotator 10 at least at the predetermined position described above. On the other hand, when the second rotating body 20 is not in a predetermined position (when it is in a state of being deviated by a predetermined amount or more from the predetermined position), a part of the second rotating body 20 protrudes outside the outer peripheral surface of the first rotating body 10. To do. The abutting portion 812 is formed so as to come into contact with the most rearwardly located second rotating body 20 that is shifted from the predetermined position by a predetermined amount or more. In the present embodiment, since the four second rotators 20 arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction are supported by the first rotator 10, the second rotators 20 located on the opposite side of the second rotators 20 located on the player side are used. The contact portion 812 is set so as to contact the rotating body 20. That is, the second rotation of the contact portion 812 whose front end (front end) is located behind the position of the rear end edge of the first rotary body 10 and is shifted from the predetermined position by a predetermined amount or more. The body 20 is formed so as to be positioned in front of the rear end edge of the second rotary body 20 positioned rearmost. Ideally, the protrusion height of the protrusion is set so that a slight gap is generated between the first rotor 10 and the protrusion when the rotating body unit 1u passes through the protrusion. .

  The effect | action by providing such a protrusion part is as follows. As described above, in the second rotating body 20 located at a predetermined position, the curved surface of any one of the decorative portions is in a state along the outer peripheral surface of the first rotating body 10 (main body portion 11). Normally, the rotary body unit 1u is slid in the vertical direction with the second rotary body 20 positioned at a predetermined position. In this case, the contact portion 812 does not contact either the first rotating body 10 or the second rotating body 20.

  However, a state in which the second rotating body 20 is displaced from the predetermined position by a predetermined amount or more due to a control error of the driving amount of the first driving source 41 or the second driving source 42 (the second rotating body 20 is not at the predetermined position). When the rotator unit 1u is slid in the up and down direction in the state), as shown in FIG. 12, the second rotator 20 located at the rearmost position and the contact portion 812 come into contact with each other. After the second rotating body 20 is rotated at the advanced position and one decoration portion of the certain second rotating body 20 is directed to the player side, the second rotating body 20 is displaced from the predetermined position by a predetermined amount or more. When the rotating body is returned to the original position in the locked state, the contact portion 812 comes into contact with the second rotating body 20 located on the opposite side of the certain second rotating body 20. By contact with the contact portion 812, the second rotating body 20 is displaced in the direction of a predetermined position.

  After performing the effect of rotating the second rotator 20 (driving either the first drive source 41 or the second drive source 42), the second rotator 20 is displaced from the predetermined position by a predetermined amount or more. In this case, the second rotating body 20 is forcibly displaced in the direction of the predetermined position by the contact portion 812 when the rotating body unit 1u is returned to the original position. That is, the contact portion 812 includes a correction of the positional deviation of the second rotary body 20 with respect to the first rotary body 10 (not only to completely return it to the predetermined position but also to bring it closer to the predetermined position (to reduce the deviation amount). )

  As described above, when the second rotating body 20 that is shifted from the predetermined position by a predetermined amount or more contacts the contact portion 812 and is displaced to the predetermined position, the second rotating body 20 of the one second rotating body 20 is displaced. The drive gear 23 is rotated by a predetermined angle. When the second drive gear 23 is rotated by a predetermined angle, the sun gear 24 meshing with the second drive gear 23 is rotated by a predetermined angle. Since the sun gear 24 is engaged with the second drive gear 23 of the other second rotating body 20, the other second rotating body 20 is also displaced toward a predetermined position. That is, since the rotation of each second rotating body 20 is synchronized, all the second rotating bodies 20 are displaced toward a predetermined position by the contact portion 812 coming into contact with any one second rotating body 20. To do. Accordingly, the contact portion 812 is formed so as to contact the second rotating body 20 when at least one (most rearmost) second rotating body 20 is shifted from the predetermined position by a predetermined amount or more. It only has to be.

  The rotation of the second drive gear 23 is also transmitted to the second output gear 421 fixed to the output shaft of the second drive source 42. That is, the output shaft of the second drive source 42 that is a motor is forcibly rotated by a predetermined angle. In the present embodiment, the toothed wheel train for rotating only the second drive source 42 and rotating the second rotary body 20 without rotating the first rotary body 10 is accelerated when viewed from the second drive source 42 side. It is a train wheel. That is, the pitch circle diameter of the second drive gear 23 is smaller than the pitch circle diameter of the second output gear 421 fixed to the output shaft of the second drive source 42. Therefore, the angle of the second output gear 421 (output shaft) rotated by the rotation of the second output gear 421 (output shaft) rotated by the second rotating body 20 (second drive gear 23) rotated by contacting the contact portion 812 is greater. Get smaller.

  The fact that the second rotating body 20 is forcibly displaced to a predetermined position by the contact portion 812 means that the second drive source 42 that is a motor is forcibly reversed. In the present embodiment, the amount of rotation of the output shaft of the second drive source 42 is smaller than the amount of rotation of the second rotating body 20, so the load on the second drive source 42 that is a motor can be reduced. It is.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, when the first drive source 41 is driven, the first rotary body 10 and the second rotary body 20 rotate, and when the second drive source 42 is driven, the second rotary body. In order to realize a configuration in which 20 rotates, one sun gear 24 and a plurality of second drive gears 23 (planetary gears) meshing with the sun gear 24 are used. Therefore, the reduction ratio between the second drive source 42 (second output gear 421) and the second rotating body 20 (second drive gear 23) is increased. Therefore, the effect of reducing the load applied to the second drive source 42 which is a motor is excellent. In other words, in the present embodiment, the first rotating body 10 and the second rotating body 20 are the same in the gear mechanism constituted by one sun gear 24 and a plurality of second drive gears 23 (planetary gears) meshing therewith. This contributes not only to realizing the operation, but also to reducing the load applied to the second rotating body 20 when the second rotating body 20 is forcibly displaced by the contact portion 812.

  Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention.

  For example, the second rotating body 20 in the above embodiment has been described as having the first decorative portion 21 and the second decorative portion 22 formed so as to face in opposite directions. Three or more decorative parts having different modes may be formed. That is, it may be a member having a substantially polygonal cross section formed so that each decorative portion is a curved surface (for example, a substantially triangular shape if the number of decorative portions is three).
