Description

  The present invention relates to a variable winning device for a gaming machine, and more particularly to a variable winning device having a sliding door opening restriction function.

  This type of variable winning device is disclosed in Patent Document 1, for example. Here, the open / close door (sliding door) that opens and closes the first grand prize opening is constituted by a T-shaped plate, which can be slid, and the tip of one piece is inserted into the connecting port formed in the base of the T-shape. ing. One piece protrudes from the outer periphery of the shaft body, and the opening and closing door is moved in the opening direction by the one body that rotates together with the shaft body as the plunger moves when the opening / closing solenoid is excited. It can be moved (opening operation). When the excitation of the open / close solenoid is cancelled, the plunger is moved by the spring force of a return spring separately provided in the peripheral portion of the plunger, and the shaft body is reversely rotated in accordance with the movement, so that the one body returns and rotates. Along with this, the open / close door is moved in the closing direction (closing operation).

JP2008-307315

  However, in the above conventional sliding door variable prize winning device, since the sliding door is held in the closed state only by the return spring force of the return spring separately provided on the plunger, there is a possibility that the sliding door may be opened by an illegal act or the like. There was a problem that there was.

  Therefore, the present invention solves such a problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a slide door type variable prize winning device that can reliably prevent the door from being opened due to an illegal act or the like.

In order to solve the above problems, in the first invention, the drive source (3), the first link member (4) driven by the drive source (3), and the first link member (4) are connected. And a second link member (5) that opens and closes to move the slide door (2). The connection portion is connected only when the slide door (2) is opened and moved by the drive source (3). The opening operation connecting portion (43, 55) and the opening operation connecting portion (43, 55) are formed in different parts and only when the sliding door (2) is closed and moved by the drive source (3). And the first and second link members (4, 5) attempt to illegally open and move the sliding door (2). Lock connecting part (4 b, 56b) is formed, and when the sliding door (2) is moved open by the driving source, the opening operation connecting portion (43, 55) is released after the lock connecting portion (45b, 56b) is released. The lock connecting portions (45b, 56b) are formed continuously with the closing operation connecting portions (45a, 56a), and the closing operation connecting portions (45a, 56a). The lock connecting portions (45b, 56b) are connected after the connection is released , and the drive source is a solenoid (3) for moving the plunger (31) forward and backward, and the first link member (4) It is attached to the plunger (31) and extends in a direction substantially orthogonal to the plunger (31), and the second link member (5) has a shaft portion (51), and the shaft portion (51) is the center. In The front end (54) is pivotably moved in the opening / closing movement direction of the slide door (2), and is opened on one side in the axial direction of the shaft (51). An operation connecting portion (43, 55) is formed, and the closing operation connecting portion (45a, 56a) and the lock connecting portion (45b, 56b) are formed on the other side in the axial direction, and the lock connecting portion ( 45b, 56b) are configured to contact each other when they are connected, and the contact surfaces are formed so as to extend in the advancing / retreating direction of the plunger (31), and the corresponding contact surfaces contact each other. The second link member (5) is configured to prevent rotation.

In the variable winning device of the first aspect of the invention, the connection (opening operation connecting portion) between the first link member and the second link member for the purpose of opening and moving the slide door only by the force generated by the drive source is established. In addition, the first link member and the second link member, which are intended to close and move the sliding door only by the force generated by the drive source, are configured to be connected (closed operation connecting portion). ing.
And in the state which closed the slide door, all the connection parts of an opening operation | movement connection part and a close operation | movement connection part are comprised so that the state of the connection may be cancelled | released. As a result, even when the sliding door is in the closed state, even if a force to open the closed state illegally is applied to the sliding door (in other words, the second link member), Depending on the force, the opening operation connecting portion can be configured not to be connected, so that the opening operation of the sliding door is reliably avoided.
At the same time, when the above-described improper force is applied, only the lock connecting portion is in the connected state, and only the lock connected state can be reliably connected and maintained as it is. In short, since it can be configured so that no connection operation other than lock connection occurs (in other words, no open connection operation for opening the sliding door occurs), the door can be opened reliably by the above-mentioned fraudulent acts, etc. Is prevented.
Moreover, the opening operation | movement connection part and closing operation | movement connection part which are formed in a 1st link member and a 2nd link member are each formed in a different site | part in the said two link members. Thereby, the formation space of both connection parts can be provided comparatively widely each separately. Thereby, the freedom degree of design of both connection parts improves, and the stable connection mechanism can be formed.
Further, when the sliding door is moved open by the driving source, the opening operation connecting portion is connected and operated after the lock connecting portion is disconnected. Accordingly, it is possible to reliably prevent the lock connecting portion from being improperly connected in the process of opening the sliding door, and to perform a stable opening operation of the sliding door.
In addition, since the lock connecting portion is formed continuously with the closing operation connecting portion, when the sliding door is closed and moved by the drive source, the flow of a series of connecting operations from the closing operation to the lock connection is smoothly performed. Thus, the completion of the lock connecting function after the closing operation is completed can be stably and reliably formed.
Here, “only connected” is to achieve the above purpose (opening movement, closing movement) when the drive source is driven for the purpose of opening (closing) the sliding door. This indicates that the connection is completed by the power of the drive source. Therefore, in the process of the moving operation of the sliding door opening movement and closing movement, for example, it is not directly (positively) acting on the force of the driving source, but an accidental action causes an unintended connection. Even if it occurs, such a connection is fundamentally different from the meaning of the “connection” of the present invention. Therefore, the variable winning device in which the above connecting action occurs is also included in the scope of the technical idea of the present invention. .
Furthermore, according to the variable winning device of the first invention, the drive structure of the drive source can be formed with a simple configuration. The first link member is configured to move forward and backward following the forward and backward movement of the plunger, and the second link member is configured to rotate and move about the shaft portion. The first link member is formed to extend in a direction substantially orthogonal to the plunger (in other words, a direction substantially orthogonal to the forward / backward movement direction of the plunger).
In this way, the two link members having different movement forms are configured to be locked and connected by contact connection, and in addition, the contact surface to be connected corresponds to the advancing / retreating direction of the plunger (first link). It is formed so as to extend in the direction of movement of the member.
Thereby, when a force is applied to the sliding door in the closed state to open the closed state illegally, the incorrect force acts as a force for rotating the second link member. Configured. However, the improper turning force can be stably received and supported using a relatively wide contact area of surface contact by the lock coupling structure using surface contact, and as a result, the action of the unauthorized force described above is achieved. Can be appropriately regulated.
At the same time, due to the contact surface formation structure as described above, the unauthorized turning force generated in the second link member is directed to the first link member in a direction substantially perpendicular to the advancing and retreating direction. It can be configured to work positively.
With such an operation configuration, it is possible to reliably prevent the first link member from moving back and forth improperly due to the unauthorized turning force.
As a result, even if the improper force is applied, it can be configured to keep the lock connection state properly connected, so that inappropriate rotation of the second link member is reliably restricted, Forced opening by the external force of the sliding door is reliably prevented.

In the second aspect of the invention , the first link member (4) that moves forward and backward integrally with the plunger (31) is attached to the shaft portion (51) of the second link member (5). A notch (511) is formed, and a guide portion (62) for guiding the movement of the tip portion (42) of the first link member (4) is formed in the device case (6). Yes.

In the second aspect of the present invention , a notch is provided in the second link member, and when the first link member moves forward and backward (especially in the opening operation direction), the first link member is directed toward the notch. Therefore, the configuration (particularly the size configuration in the vertical direction) of the entire variable winning device can be made compact. And since the guide part which guides the movement of the front-end | tip part of a 1st link member was formed in the apparatus case, the 1st link member extended substantially orthogonally to a plunger is maintained in the attitude | position appropriately, and is advanced / retreated smoothly. be able to.

  The reference numerals in the parentheses indicate the correspondence with specific means described in the embodiments described later.

  As described above, according to the sliding door variable prize winning device of the present invention, it is possible to reliably prevent the door from being opened due to fraud.

  The embodiment described below is merely an example, and various design improvements made by those skilled in the art without departing from the gist of the present invention are also included in the scope of the present invention.

  FIG. 1 shows a schematic front view of a pachinko gaming machine equipped with the variable winning device of the present invention. In FIG. 1, the gaming machine is provided with a front frame 13 on which a gaming board 12 is installed, and a glass frame 11 is disposed on the front side of the gaming board 12. On the game board 12, a substantially circular game area 12a is formed by being divided into guide rails 121. An image display device 122 is provided at the approximate center of the game area 12a, a start winning opening 123, 124 is provided below the display area 122, and an out ball opening 125 is provided therebelow.

  In the game area 12a, a left sphere flow down passage 126 and a right sphere flow down passage 127 are formed at the left and right positions of the image display device 122, respectively, and these passages 126, 127 are in the game area 12a in which the start winning holes 123, 124 are located. It merges at the bottom. And the variable prize-winning apparatus E of this invention is provided in the downward position of the right side sphere downward passage 127. FIG. In addition, illustrations of other items provided on the game board 12 are omitted.

  FIG. 2 shows a front view of the main part of the variable winning device E in the door closed state, FIG. 3 shows a left side view of the main part, and FIG. 4 shows a right side view of the main part. FIG. 5 is a plan view of the main part of the variable winning device E when the door is closed.

  2 and 3, the variable prize winning device E includes a slide door 2, and the slide door 2 is erected along a door portion 21 that is inclined downward to the left and a rear edge of the door portion 21. Main body 22. Such a sliding door 2 normally moves forward from an opening 128 provided in the mounting base plate 14 separately formed as a part of the variable prize apparatus E, and the variable prize apparatus E described above. Inside, the winning opening 15 (FIG. 3) formed in the position below the slide door 2 is closed. In the closed state, the upper surface 21a of the inclined door portion 21 is configured to function as a flow path for the game ball, and the game ball is placed below the center of the game area 12a by the left-side downward inclined shape. It is comprised so that it may guide downflow toward. The slide door 2 moves backward to open the winning opening 15 when a special game such as a big hit occurs. The game balls that have won the winning opening 15 are detected by a ball detection SW 16 disposed at a position downstream of the winning opening 15.

  The sliding door 2 is formed with ridges 221 and 222 that project in a total of four substantially circular cross sections at the front and rear positions on the upper and lower surfaces of the left and right side end portions of the main body portion 22 respectively. It has become. Then, the arc-shaped tips of the ridges 221 and 222 formed on the lower surface side of the left and right side end portions are always in contact with the bottom surface of the opening portion 128 formed on the mounting base plate 14 of the variable winning device E and slide. The smooth back-and-forth movement of the door 2 is guaranteed. Further, the protrusions 221 and 222 formed on the upper surface side are formed such that the protruding height of the protrusion 222 located on the rear side is higher than the protrusion 221 located on the front side. As described above, the projecting height of the front ridge 221 is lower than the rear ridge 222 because the game ball is placed on the door portion 21 at the time of closing and the slide door 2 tilts downward in the front direction. This is to reliably prevent the arc-shaped tips of the ridges 221 and 222 from coming into contact with the upper surface of the opening 128. As a result, the main body portion This is because an excessive frictional force is unnecessarily generated in 22 and hinders the opening / closing operation of the slide door 2.

  A guide wall 23 is erected at the center position in the left-right direction on the upper surface of the main body 22 of the slide door 2, and this guide wall 23 is located above the opening 128 formed in the mounting base plate 14 of the variable winning device E. The entry position is in a notch 129 formed at the center of the edge frame. On the left and right inner surfaces of the notch 129, a ridge 130 is formed with the tip of the arc cross-section approaching the wall surface of the guide wall 23, thereby preventing sideways swinging of the slide door 2 during forward and backward movement (opening and closing movement). Is done.

  Further, a stopper 131 is formed at the front end of the upper edge frame of the opening 128 so as to protrude downward in a wall shape at the left and right positions. On the other hand, on the front surface of the main body 22 of the slide door 2, the stopper 131 is formed. The stopper recess 223 is formed at the corresponding position, and when the sliding door 2 moves forward, the wall surface on the back surface side of the stopper portion 131 comes into contact with the vertical surface formed at the back of the stopper recess 223 to close the door. The position is fixed.

  The main body 22 of the slide door 2 is formed with rectangular holes 224 in the vertical direction at the left and right positions (FIG. 5) to reduce the weight of the main body 22. Further, a rectangular engaging portion 24 is formed to project rearward (upward in FIG. 5) at an intermediate position of the rear side portion of the main body portion 22 of the slide door 2, and the engaging portion 24 has a rectangular engagement. A joint hole 241 is formed.

  Such a driving mechanism for sliding the sliding door 2 back and forth (opening and closing movement) includes a solenoid 3, a first link member 4, and a second link member 5 as driving sources, as shown in FIG. FIG. 3 shows a state in which the slide door 2 is positioned at the closed position. The plunger 31 built in the solenoid 3 is linearly movable (sliding) in the vertical direction. In the state shown in FIG. 3, the solenoid 3 is electrically non-excited. The plunger 31 is protruded to the lower advancing end by the extension biasing force of the spring member 32 disposed on the outer peripheral portion.

  The tip 311 of the plunger 31 is formed in a disc shape. And the base 41 of the 1st link member 4 which formed the space which holds the said disk-shaped front-end | tip 311 is inserted and fixed to the front-end | tip 311 from the horizontal direction. The first link member 4 extends in a horizontal direction substantially orthogonal to the plunger 31, and the distal end portion 42 is located below the proximal end portion 51 of the second link member 5. The variable prize winning device E is provided with a device case 6 in which the solenoid 3, the first link member 4 and the second link member 5 are accommodated. A convex portion 61 that swells in a spherical shape is formed, and the lower surface of the first link member 4 urged downward by the spring force of the spring member abuts on the convex portion 61 and is positioned.

  The distal end portion 42 of the first link member 4 is bent and formed in an L shape that protrudes a certain amount upward. An abutting projection 43 that constitutes an opening operation connecting portion is formed on the lower edge portion of one side surface of the tip portion 42 so as to protrude horizontally. In addition, two guide protrusions 44 are vertically provided at the front end surface of the vertical wall portion 46 (FIG. 2) projecting upward at the front end portion 42 of the first link member 4, and horizontally directed forward. Protrusions are formed. These guide protrusions 44 are positioned in a vertically long guide hole 62 formed in the apparatus case 6 as a guide portion.

  Further, a contact protrusion 45 (FIGS. 2 and 4) extending in the vertical direction is formed on the other side surface of the distal end portion 42 of the first link member 4 so that the closing operation connecting portion and the lock connecting portion are continuously formed. Has been. In the contact protrusion 45, the lower end surface curved in an arc shape is a closing operation contact surface 45a (FIG. 4), and the contact protrusion 45 extends vertically in the up-and-down direction as the advancing / retreating direction of the plunger 31 (plunger 31). The side surface on the back side (which extends substantially parallel to the forward / backward direction) is a lock contact surface 45b. As the plunger 31 moves forward and backward, the first link member 4 moves forward and backward (sliding) integrally therewith. At this time, the guide protrusions 44 are regulated by both side edges of the guide hole 62 and the side swings. It can be moved up and down smoothly while keeping the horizontal posture. In addition, with the above configuration, the first link member 4 is formed in a shape extending a predetermined dimension in the front-rear direction, and at the same time, the driving force of the solenoid 3 is applied only to the base 41 that is one end thereof. (That is, a force is applied in a cantilever state), but by the guide movement mechanism by the guide protrusion 44 and the guide hole 62, the tip end 42 side which is the other end is also formed. Since it is formed so as to move forward and backward appropriately, as a result, a stable forward and backward movement of the first link member 4 can be formed.

  The second link member 5 has a base portion 51 that is a substantially circular shaft portion in a side view, and is rotatably supported by the device case 6 by a shaft body 52 protruding from the center of the shaft portion 51. A plate-like main body 53 having a substantially triangular shape (FIG. 2) as viewed from the top extends upward from the base 51. And the front-end | tip part 54 of the 2nd link member 5 has entered into the engagement hole 241 of the slide door 2 (FIG. 5), the 2nd link member 5 rotates, and the front-end | tip part 54 rotates forward and backward. In response to the above, the slide door 2 is moved back and forth (open / close slide movement). The second link member 5 is formed in such a shape that the plate-like main body 53 extends upward from the base portion 51 as described above, so that the slide door 2 is in the closed position ( In FIG. 3), the second link member 5 itself is urged to rotate (FIG. 3) so as to urge the slide door 2 toward the closing direction by the force of its own weight generated by the positional relationship of the center of gravity. In the clockwise direction). In the state where the slide door 2 is located at the open position (see FIG. 6 described later), on the contrary, the slide door 2 is opened by the force of its own weight generated by the positional relationship of the center of gravity. The second link member 5 itself is configured to be urged to rotate (biased counterclockwise in FIG. 6) so as to be urged toward it. Since the second link member 5 itself is configured to be urged to rotate by its own weight in this way, for example, unnecessary sliding or the like causes the slide door 2 to be directed in a direction different from the intended purpose. Even if a situation or force that causes movement is generated, it is possible to apply an auxiliary action force that regulates the unnecessary operation, and to properly maintain the normal opening / closing state of the slide door 2. it can.

  The central portion of the shaft portion 51 of the second link member 5 in the width direction (left and right direction when viewed from the front) is formed in a notch 511 by being bent upward in an inverted U shape, and a space is secured above here. The upper portion of the vertical wall portion 46 of the distal end portion 42 of the first link member 4 is located at the top. The shaft bodies 52 are provided at symmetrical positions at intervals with the notch 511 interposed therebetween.

  On one side of the shaft portion 51 of the second link member 5, from one place in the circumferential direction outward in the radial direction, toward the upper position of the contact protrusion 43 (FIG. 3) of the first link member 4, An abutting projection 55 constituting the opening operation connecting portion is formed to protrude. In the closed state of the slide door 2 shown in FIG. 3, both contact protrusions 43 and 55 of the first link member 4 and the second link member 5 are located apart from each other by a predetermined dimension in the vertical direction.

  The other side of the shaft portion 51 of the second link member 5 is directed from the circumferential position outward in the radial direction, when the sliding door 2 is in a closed state (see FIG. 4), the above-described first link member 4. A contact protrusion 56 in which a closing operation connection portion and a lock connection portion are continuously formed extends toward the lock contact surface 45 b of the contact protrusion 45. The contact protrusion 56 is formed so as to extend toward the lower front, which is the opposite direction to the plate-shaped main body 53 extending upward, with the base 51 as a base point. The bent upper surface 56a of the contact protrusion 56 serves as a closing operation contact surface, and the tip surface (see FIG. 4) extending continuously downward in the vertical direction serves as a lock contact surface 56b. In the closed state of the slide door 2 shown in FIG. 4, the lock contact surfaces 45 b and 56 b of both contact protrusions 45 and 56 of the first link member 4 and the second link member 5 are directed vertically. Are in contact with each other so as to extend (in a direction substantially parallel to the advancing / retreating direction of the first link member 4).

  In the state where the slide door 2 described above is closed, the lock contact surfaces 45b and 56b contact each other (FIG. 4), and the lock connecting portion is connected, so that the second link member 5 is rotated. The movement is blocked. Thereby, even if it tries to forcibly open the sliding door 2 by fraud etc., this is not opened. Further, at this time, the contact protrusions 43 and 55 constituting the opening operation connecting portion are located at a predetermined distance in the vertical direction and are not connected. In addition, a force for illegally forcibly opening the slide door 2 causes the second link member 5 to pivot through the slide door 2 (counterclockwise in FIG. 3). Even if it acts as a strong force, the connection structure for connecting the first link member 4 and the second link member 5 is not formed at all at the upper position, which is the rotational movement direction side of the contact protrusion 55. The first link member 4 is prevented from sliding in the opening operation direction (upward direction). Even with such a configuration, the opening of the sliding door 2 is reliably avoided.

In the game, when a special game such as a big hit occurs and the sliding door 2 is opened, when the solenoid 3 is energized, the plunger 31 is moved backward (sliding upward), and accordingly, the first link member 4 is moved. Is raised (sliding upward). At this time, the dimension of the lock contact surfaces 45b and 56b is set so that the vertical contact dimension value is smaller than the vertical dimension value of the gap region formed between the contact protrusions 43 and 55. Yes. Thus, in the process of this upward movement, the contact state between the lock contact surfaces 45b and 56b is first canceled (FIG. 9), and the contact protrusion 43 is contacted after the lock connecting portion is released. An operation in which the opening operation connecting portion is connected to the contact portion 55 (FIG. 8) is reliably formed. Thereby, in the process of opening operation of the slide door 2, the opening operation of the slide door 2 can be performed while reliably preventing the connection state of the lock connecting portion from being improperly connected and maintained. 2 opening operations can be performed. Thereafter, the second link member 5 is rotated, and the slide door 2 is opened backward.
Further, in the process of the upward movement, the vertical wall portion 46 (FIG. 2) of the distal end portion 42 of the first link member 4 is lifted so as to enter the notch 511 formed in the second link member 5. Move. At this time, the vertical wall portion 46 enters into the notch 511 that pivots backward, but in the course of the series of operations, the vertical wall portion 46 and the vertical U-shaped wall portion of the notch 511 and the vertical wall portion 46 move vertically. The wall 46 is formed so as to enter while keeping a slight gap between the two wall portions so as not to contact the outer peripheral wall portion. With this configuration, the device case 6 (variable winning device E as a whole) can be formed so that a stable sliding door opening operation can be performed while the size structure in the vertical direction in particular is formed more compactly. it can. The sliding door 2 is opened by a part of the rear wall surface of the main body 22 coming into contact with a stubber portion (not shown) separately formed at the back side position of the mounting base plate 14. The door opening position is determined.

  When the slide door 2 is closed again, when the energization of the solenoid 3 is stopped (non-excited state), the plunger 31 is advanced (sliding downward) by the biasing force of the spring member, and the first link member 4 is lowered ( Slide down). In this process, first, the closing operation contact surface 45a of the lower end surface of the contact projection 45 of the first link member 4 contacts the closing operation contact surface 56a of the upper surface of the contact projection 56 of the second link member 5, that is, The opening operation connecting portion is connected, the second link member 5 is returned and rotated, and the slide door 2 is advanced and closed accordingly.

  In the process of (or after) the sliding door 2 is closed, the contact protrusion 45 passes through the upper surface of the contact protrusion 56 and reaches the tip surface adjacent thereto. Thus, after the connection of the closing operation connecting portion is released, the lock contact surfaces 45b and 56b can come into contact with each other, and the lock connection portion can be connected again (FIG. 4). Here, in the process of closing the series of slide doors 2, the contact protrusion 43 and the contact protrusion 55 are in contact with each other due to the action of rotational movement due to the weight of the second link member 5 described above. However, this contact is not a direct action on the driving force of the driving source, but is an accidental action that occurs differently from the original purpose. And when the said lock contact surfaces 45b and 56b will be in the state which can carry out a lock connection again, the unauthorized forced opening of the slide door 2 by external force will be reliably blocked | prevented again.
